I’m Jeong Yeongwoo of Renaissance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Renaissance?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes… I do have some ties with Doatel, but it seems you haven’t heard of it yet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—If you say Doatel, could you mean the Shelbir Royal Family?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tiape asked in a tone of disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In response, Yeongwoo nodded and took something out from his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Srrk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was none other than the ‘Token of Salvation.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mythical currency that allowed one to borrow the decisive weapons of the three great virtuous families, including Delmir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In fact, I’m not entirely without ties to Delmir either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yeongwoo said this while holding up the token, Tiape, who immediately recognized the item in question, stepped back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—How is that here…? Don’t tell me you even brought down Doatel?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tiape now looked at the numerous villains around her with a newly changed gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it, with this level of force, wouldn’t it have been entirely possible to bring down Doatel as well?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For her, it was impossible to even imagine that someone mixed among these felons had received the token as a gift from King Teroph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Yeongwoo quickly waved his hand and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, Doatel is fine. I received this token directly from King Teroph.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Teroph? Is he alive?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tiape once again looked around at the villains in the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed she was assuming that the prisoners here had stopped by Doatel, carried out a massacre, and then come here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, Yeongwoo unconsciously furrowed his brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, we’ve never even been to Doatel. It’s just that I personally have some connection.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Yeongwoo said this, Tiape finally loosened her stiff body slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—You’ve never been to Doatel? Then why are you here… no, how did you even find this place?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they hadn’t extracted the information by torturing King Teroph, how could they have discovered this secret dueling arena?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, in this vast universe, wasn’t this place less than a speck of dust, yet over a thousand criminals had suddenly appeared here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From Tiape’s perspective, it was only natural to think that the secret must have leaked from somewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the reality was—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…It was a coincidence.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—A coincidence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It just so happened that you were passing nearby at the exact moment we appeared. So unless it was an incredible coincidence…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo searched for the next word, the prisoners filling the arena in pitch black opened their mouths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Then it is inevitability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—To encounter the head of Delmir right after leaving Pahalufe—what could that mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Ask him how Pahalufe was brought down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At those words, Tiape, who had been harboring doubts all along, could not help but ask Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Even if I accept that Pahalufe fell, how exactly? Are you truly saying that you were the one who destroyed Pahalufe’s walls?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A being that did not even reach Rank 4, let alone Rank 3.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tiape could not understand this situation at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Starting with the fact that the criminals gathered here were even keeping such a feeble being alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the long-haired man spoke in place of Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—With that innocent head of yours, you could never even imagine it. This man is a Planetary Ship Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—What…?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From inside the helmet came the sound of Tiape’s jaw dropping open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then even Poachi Shalmoram, who had remained silent the whole time, widened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—That man is a Planetary Ship Master?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Srrk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poachi pointed directly at Yeongwoo with his finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with his single eye, he glared sharply at Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Are you truly a Planetary Ship Master? Say it yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It meant he could not trust the testimony of criminals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, Yeongwoo was about to toss him a manifestation body, but then changed his mind and instead checked the coordinates of the wasteland visible far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he sent those coordinates to Earth and spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Fire a volley over there.

Why are you here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he acknowledged his opponent as a Planetary Ship Master, the question that followed was naturally ‘why?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was a Planetary Ship Master, a terror of the cosmos, together with such vicious criminals?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, not merely together—he had even taken them out of prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Planetary Ship Master, do you know what you have done?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the enraged Poachi tried to approach Yeongwoo, the nearby prisoners blocked his path with their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Hey, calm down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Where do you think you’re pushing that filthy body?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—If you have something to say to the Planetary Ship Master, kneel first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With those words, the prisoners actually tried to kick Poachi’s legs, and as Tiape rushed in to stop them, another chaotic brawl broke out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difference from earlier was that this time, even Tiape could not exert much strength and was slammed to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was because, near Yeongwoo, there were individuals among the Rank 3 prisoners whose martial prowess ranked among the top.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud, thwack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Poachi and Tiape were being beaten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Yeongwoo was reminded of being beaten by thugs on the first day of the reset, and without realizing it, he shouted loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>《Stop! Everyone, stop moving…!》\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, Yeongwoo raised his voice with authority in front of the “presidents.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And surprisingly, the presidents who had been trampling the two virtuous beings immediately stopped their movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it wasn’t because they had been suppressed by Yeongwoo’s authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this place, wasn’t the only one emitting such feeble authority the Planetary Ship Master?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ironically, that was precisely why they could recognize it immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Planetary Ship Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, the voice of the one who held the Right of Gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—…?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—…What is it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The presidents, who had stopped the beating in response to the request of the holder of the Right of Recompense, stood blankly and looked at Yeongwoo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, Yeongwoo pushed aside the presidents who were surrounding him like a wall and walked up to the two virtuous beings lying on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I said we came to watch the secret duel. When did I ever say we should beat the duelists to death?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo said this and tried to help Poachi up, one of the prisoners who had been beating them spoke with a sharp aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Hey, Planetary Ship Master. Don’t get it twisted. What you have is a claim right, not a command right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he suddenly drew a blade from his waist and swung it toward Poachi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fwaaaash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—If you want to save him, then use your claim right!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was truly a judgment befitting a vicious criminal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was trying to use this opportunity to free himself from the “favor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was even deliberately making an attack that Yeongwoo could clearly read.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was no different from giving Yeongwoo time to decide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You crazy bastard!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yeongwoo was about to draw his weapon, the long-haired man who had been behind him leapt out and grabbed the prisoner’s blade with his bare hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>KWA-AAAACK!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—How dare you try to discard a favor so cheaply? One so unsightly does not belong in this place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the opposing prisoner ground his teeth and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—You’re crossing the line, Quiad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quiad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the long-haired man’s name was revealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as the situation was turning increasingly dire, Yeongwoo didn’t even realize he had heard the man’s name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saaaaaah…!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An overwhelming aura, enough to make the surrounding space seem to ripple, was pouring out from the prisoners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them were ready to draw their blades on one another at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t even tell who was on whose side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Fuck, this feels like it’s gone to shit.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, blood was streaming down Quiad’s palm as he held the opponent’s blade barehanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Ah, that guy… he was human, right?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was true that Quiad was strong even among Rank 3 beings, but he wasn’t an overwhelmingly absolute existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“……”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling cold sweat, Yeongwoo wiped his chin with the back of his hand, and Poachi, narrowing his single eye, said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Do you understand now? What kind of things you have unleashed upon this world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as if that line were a signal, the prisoner aiming at Poachi spun his sword at tremendous speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swiiaaaak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he truly intended to kill the virtuous being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At almost the same moment—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—You’re complicating matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quiad, who seemed to take half a step aside, in the blink of an eye struck the prisoner’s neck with the edge of his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>KWA-AAAAAT…!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeongwoo’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at that moment, a line of system text appeared in Yeongwoo’s vision, and the prisoners in the area all emitted fierce killing intent at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Witnessing war +0.4」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Translator - Night]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Proofreader - Gun]\u003C\u002Fp>",1790,"2026-06-09T07:04:16.708Z",1,"novelbin.me","90c573f204d495f19a2d9a945b7321cba6dbc5fa89ce3cddaab7512526aa6172","level-4-human-in-a-ruined-world-chapter-662","level-4-human-in-a-ruined-world-chapter-610",688,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flevel-4-human-in-a-ruined-world-cover.jpg"]
