At the center of where the American Dimensional Dungeon opened.

Andre, the president of the American Heroes Association, was witnessing a miracle.

"This can't be."

He couldn't take his eyes off the scene unfolding before him.

Thirty minutes after the unprecedented opening of a dimensional dungeon.

Yet among the heroes who had gathered to stop this event, not a single one had died.

There were zero casualties so far.

And these were heroes from all over the world, including the United States.

"What are you exactly..."

Under normal circumstances, it should have led to a chaotic battle.

The monsters pouring out of the dimensional dungeon were of a strength that, at the very least, required three top-tier heroes to barely defeat one that resided in extinction-level territories.

The situation was gradually stabilizing.

All because of one superhuman who had changed the course of the battlefield.

But what was even more astonishing was that this situation wasn't unique to the United States.

All five countries where the dimensional dungeons had opened were experiencing the same scenario.

The power of one superhuman was equivalent to hundreds, if not thousands.

"Ha, this is really embarrassing. It was the opposite."

Therefore, President Andre knew exactly what he had to do right now.

He spoke to an agent standing by his side.

"Tell the heroes at the scene."

Initially, the Irregular had said he would support all countries where dimensional dungeons had opened. But seeing what was happening now, he and the heroes on the scene seemed to know what action to take.

He looked at the agent with determined eyes and continued.

"Support the Irregular as much as possible."

Adrian Heights.

America's great hero was reminded of the words a boy had uttered a few days ago as he watched the current scene unfold.

A statement declared by the boy when all the great heroes were gathered.

-"I won't let anyone die."

He must have taken the boy's words too lightly, thinking of them as mere bravado.

He thought it was just something the boy said to show his determination.

But the resolve the boy had expressed was becoming a reality right before him.

"You really were planning to... save everyone, kid."

Even now, the boy was single-handedly taking down every monster that descended from the dimensional dungeon.

The heads of the indiscriminately pouring monsters from the dimensional dungeon burst open as soon as they appeared.

Only a few monsters managed to land, but even those were met with death by the heroes present at the scene.

The presence of one boy was making up for the overwhelming difference in power.

Watching this scene, the corners of Adrian's mouth slowly began to rise.

"The birth of a new great hero."

A scene like a miracle.

The power of one superhuman being equivalent to hundreds, if not thousands...

Whooosh!! Boom!! Bang!!

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.

A giant hammer swung through the air, creating sounds of bursting air, and once again swept away thousands of monsters.

The wind whipped up by the hammer's pressure blew towards the heroes around.

An oppressive and overwhelming power.

It inspired a kind of reverence in the heroes on the scene.

At the same time, it boosted the morale of the heroes.

They had braced themselves for the possibility of hundreds of casualties, and even for their own deaths in this war...

"I guess it's not my time to die yet."

A faint smile formed on Adrian's somber face.

The force exerted by the boy began to ignite Adrian's aged heart.

In such a way, the boy's presence was changing the atmosphere of the battlefield.

"Now, when a young guy is trying so hard, we can't just stand by and watch, can we? Right, Andre?"

"Hahaha! Shamefully, it looks like I'll have to give up the title of being number one in the world."

Andre responded with a hearty laugh to Adrian's words.

Soon, magical power surged from Andre's body, and the air around began to vibrate.

"Even so, we can't let him act alone."

Boom!!

With those words, Andre dashed towards the monsters falling to the ground, kicking off the ground.

The ability that made Andre number one in the world was the speed granted by a superhuman's physique and abilities honed through sheer effort.

The strong superhuman body, combined with the ability 'Acceleration', created a spectacle as if a massive boulder was moving at Mach speed.

His mere movement was enough to cause a destructive phenomenon.

Following Andre, all the heroes gathered at the scene charged towards the monsters pouring down from the sky, shouting.

The magicians supporting from the rear helped the Irregular by intercepting the monsters falling from the dimensional dungeon, and the moment some missed monsters touched the ground, the heroes in the front kicked off the ground and rushed to take them down.

They were united in their expectation of a certain future.

That they could protect the people.

The heroes gathered to protect people from this unprecedented dimensional dungeon were confident of their victory.

But the next moment.

The gaze of all the heroes gathered on the battlefield turned to the dimensional dungeon in unison.

"Wait?!"

"What is this magical power..."

The massive wave of magical power felt from beyond the dimensional dungeon.

Though invisible, they felt the presence beyond the giant magic circle.

-The left arm of the Korean giant has regenerated!

-The left leg of the British giant has also been fully regenerated!

Hajoon quickly moved after receiving information from the agents in Korea through the earphones he had on.

Thanks to the agents who swiftly relayed information from the field while Hajoon took down hordes of monsters in the United States, China, Japan, and Russia, he was able to quickly respond to the giants' regeneration.

"Yes, got it."

Hajoon immediately used the gate to return to Korea and Britain, smashed the regenerated left arm and left leg of the giants with his hammer, and then headed back to the countries being overrun by monsters.

Initially, Hajoon had planned to use the power of annihilation to eliminate the giants, but Philaten's advice made him stop that decision.

-"It's better to save as much magical power as possible until you confront the king of giants directly."

Philaten said that Hajoon's magical power was the only possibility to defeat the king of giants.

And Hajoon agreed with that judgment.

Honestly, he didn't care about his body suffering. Thanks to the ability of time stop, he wouldn't run out of stamina.

But magical power was a different story.

Even resting for a long time within the space where time was stopped, the depleted magical power wouldn't replenish.

"Save as much magical power as possible."

The figure of 700 for magical power wasn't small, but it was significantly less compared to other kings.

The magical power figures of the kings seen so far were several times more than Hajoon's at first glance.

The king of giants would be no different.

At least, Hajoon was calmly preparing for the final confrontation with him.

"Is it about time now?"

At that moment, while Hajoon was smashing monsters with time stopped, his hand stopped.

It was because of the system notification that appeared before his eyes.

The quest notification popped up again.

Hajoon prepared to move again, rotating his stiff neck.

Just as he was about to release the time stop and swing Maharazu to increase its size.

"...What's that?"

Hajoon's gaze turned towards the dimensional dungeon in the sky.

The immense energy emanating from the American dimensional dungeon.

It felt as if magical power was gathering in one place.

It was clear that the battle between Lain and Hermorus had started beyond that point...

"It seems they are making a grand commotion."

Hajoon had an idea of the situation beyond.

-"Your Majesty."

"Yes, I know."

At Philaten's words, Hajoon planted the handle of Maharazu into the ground.

He then increased the size of Maharazu.

Maharazu began to extend towards the vicinity of the dimensional dungeon beyond.

At the same time, the hammer part of Maharazu started to grow so large that it could cover the gate of the dimensional dungeon.

What Hajoon and Philaten felt was the immense wave of magical power from beyond the dimensional dungeon.

-"It's Hermorus' magic. The shock will be transmitted soon."

At those words, Hajoon couldn't help but furrow his brow.

He had a feeling he knew what would happen next.

And Hajoon's prediction was right.

Whoooosh!! Kaboom!!!

A giant beam of light that would turn the surroundings white poured out from beyond the dimensional dungeon.

It was the destructive grand magic unleashed by Hermorus, the king of elves.

Perhaps during the battle with Lain, his magic had somehow been directed beyond the dimensional dungeon.

Such grand magic from him poured over the monsters and the groups of wyverns ridden by elves emerging from the dimensional dungeon, incinerating thousands of monsters in an instant.

Kukukukung!! Crack!!

At the same time, the giant destructive beam of light blocked by the hammer scattered in all directions, impacting the barriers protecting the capital.

Although Hajoon was able to protect the people underneath by increasing the size of Maharazu, cracks formed in the barriers surrounding the capital, and they began to crumble with a roaring sound.
