Chapter 193

"What just happened? Final Admin rank?"

It was an unexpected message.

The Final Admin wasn’t something just anyone could acquire—it was reserved for the game's creator or the CEO of SG Games.

And now, it had been granted to him.

When he opened his eyes, a familiar ceiling came into view.

It was Kane Rehinar’s room.

He moved his body.

"Feels natural."

His body felt just as familiar as it had when he previously possessed Kane.

Sliding his hand down, he summoned the status window.

"The status window looks a bit different from the last time I checked."

The previously separate Blood Tiger and Blood Phoenix breaths had been merged into Breath of Blood.

The Five Element Blood Extreme Body had reached completion.

Even his class had changed—from Blood Grand Duke to Lord of Blood.

"I need to figure out when I’ve logged in."

He opened the door and stepped outside.

The maids greeted him cheerfully.

"My Lord, did you cough just now?"

"How is your skin still better than ours when you wake up this early?"

"It must be because of your magical powers, right? That’s your secret, isn’t it?"

Their chatter filled the hall.

Kane asked them a question.

"What year is it according to the continental calendar?"

The maids exchanged curious glances.

"Why do you ask, my Lord?"

"It’s the winter of the year 225 in the continental calendar," one of them replied.

"Winter of 225… so two years have passed."

At Kane’s quiet murmur, the maids tilted their heads in confusion.

They watched as he walked down the corridor, his back facing them.

"Is something troubling him?"

"Maybe he has an appointment today?"

Kane left the mansion, leaving the maids behind.

As he stepped outside, he took in the familiar scene.

It was exactly as he had last seen it.

It felt as though he had returned to the time when he possessed Kane’s body.

If it weren’t for the message he received, he might have mistaken this for possession again.

Private Message Conversation

[RichSpender: Chanyul, are you… in the same situation as me?]

Kane couldn’t help but smirk at the username. Typical for someone born into wealth to flaunt it even in a game.

Not that his own username was any better.

[CouchWarlord: You mean the last time we played? Before we left for the Trials?]

[RichSpender: Pffft! Seriously, who names themselves ‘CouchWarlord’? I never thought I’d see someone with that username—especially someone I know!]

[CouchWarlord: Like you’re one to talk. What’s with that ‘RichSpender’ flex? Trying to show off your wealth?]

[RichSpender: I can’t help it if it’s true.]

[CouchWarlord: Let’s drop it. More importantly, are you a Final Admin too?]

[RichSpender: No, I’m just a regular Admin. Wait, you’re a Final Admin?]

[CouchWarlord: Yeah, that’s what my status says.]

[RichSpender: That rank is usually reserved for my father or eldest brother. What the heck is going on?]

As the two continued their private chat, a shadow silently approached Kane.

It was Blata—no longer in his cute tiger form, but as a tall human figure.

“Congratulations on passing the Celestial Trial, my Lord,” Blata said respectfully.

Their relationship was one of Master and Servant, and Blata conducted himself with utmost decorum.

Kane folded his arms. “I need an explanation.”

Blata bowed slightly before responding. “The space you’ve entered is not the world of your past life. It’s a virtual world crafted from your memories.”

“So, we’re inside a game?”

“Precisely.”

Kane narrowed his eyes. “And how are you here?”

Blata gave a knowing smile. “It was I who arranged for you to enter this world through the Celestial king. Of course, it was all part of your plan, my Lord.”

Kane raised a brow. “And what if I hadn’t entered the game?”

Blata responded confidently. “I never doubted you would return to a world that mirrors your past life.”

Kane chuckled softly. “Are you planning to cross into my world?”

Blata’s expression hardened. “Even the traitors from the Demon Realm have crossed over. Naturally, I must follow to assist you, my Lord.”

Kane’s gaze darkened. “My goal is to give mana to those without it—using this game as the medium.”

Blata’s eyes gleamed with admiration. “To use humans as a weapon to eliminate the traitors? A brilliant strategy, befitting of you, my Lord.”

Kane remained silent for a moment, then shook his head. “So, you were the one who made me a Final Admin.”

Blata nodded eagerly. “Indeed. If you wish, I can merge the world of ‘Teverland’ with your reality.”

Kane grimaced. “No need. The monsters spilling into Earth are already enough of a headache.”

Blata’s expression turned solemn. “The cursed traitors must be causing you much worry.”

Kane waved it off. “They don’t matter. Whatever they do is none of my concern.”

Blata blinked in surprise. “So… you’re just going to let them be?”

Kane sighed. “As long as they leave me alone, I’d rather live in peace.”

Blata’s admiration only deepened, his eyes gleaming with respect.

“You plan to militarize ordinary humans and watch from behind the scenes. Truly remarkable, my Lord.”

Kane groaned. “No, I just want a peaceful life.”

Blata stepped closer, his gaze unwavering. “Then I shall lead the charge for that peace.”

His determination radiated from him, his eyes burning with resolve.

Kane let out a deep sigh and shook his head.

“I miss the days when you were just a cute little tiger.”

Back then, Blata had only been a prideful, playful companion.

Now, he had become a loyal servant, ready to go to war in his name.

But, Kane considered ‘Bu-er’s’ words carefully. The servant hadn’t overstepped his bounds. He simply followed orders.

Kane’s gaze sharpened. “So, can you make sure no one else touches this space?”

Bu-er bowed. “Of course, my Lord.”

“Lock it down. No one should be able to access this place except me.”

“That has already been done. All permissions have been transferred to you.”

Kane nodded in satisfaction. “Good.”

Now, he wouldn’t need to waste time digging through palace reports to find hidden slush funds.

Still, a promise lingered in his mind — one he made to Min Kyungsoo.

He had promised to help Kyungsoo take control of SG Group.

‘If Chairman Min Hyeongbae doesn’t get his hands on this game, he’ll create another forced awakening program. To stop him, I need Kyungsoo to become SG Group’s chairman.’

Kane’s eyes gleamed with determination. “I need to head to the imperial palace.”

Bu-er bowed again. “Allow me to guide you.”

Bu-er led the way, Han Chanyul who was in the body of Kane Rehinar followed close behind.

The Imperial Palace.

As a Final Admin, Kane easily entered the palace treasury, bypassing all barriers.

Bu-er was right. This world was a virtual space created from Kane’s memories. It wasn’t exactly the same as when he was first possessed, but it was close enough.

Unlike before, he no longer needed Isaac’s permission to access the palace’s most guarded vaults.

Bu-er gestured toward the far end of the room. “The slush funds and account books should be in the final chamber.”

Kane strode forward, his steps steady and confident. The vault was filled with priceless treasures, each more lavish than the last.

Eventually, he stopped in front of a statue of the First Emperor.

He reached out and pressed his hand against the nameplate at its base.

Nothing happened.

Suddenly—

Click!

A soft sound echoed as the nameplate sank inward, revealing a hidden compartment.

Inside was a small chest.

Kane opened it and flipped through its contents.

His eyes widened. “This is incredible.”

The chest held a detailed ledger, documenting every secret and scandal involving SG Group’s executives.

Bu-er stepped closer. “Is that what you were looking for, my Lord?”

Kane nodded. “Yeah.”

Bu-er smiled. “There are similar items hidden in other places, my Lord.”

Kane glanced at him. “Where?”

Bu-er walked over to a painting on the wall and pressed against it.

With a low rumble, the wall shifted, revealing a hidden room.

Bu-er stepped inside, gesturing toward the piles of gold, silver, and jewels stacked high.

“This vault is even more secure than the last,” he said.

Kane’s eyes swept across the room. “What’s in here?”

Bu-er held up a thick notebook. “The documents are encrypted, but after some analysis, I confirmed they’re linked to money.”

Kane skimmed the pages, a smirk forming on his lips.

“Cryptocurrency.”

The discovery of hidden wealth and SG Group’s secrets gave Kane and Kyungsoo a powerful advantage. What started as a hunt for slush funds quickly escalated into something far more significant — control over SG Group itself.

It was dirty money.

Slush funds that had been converted into cryptocurrency.

In the past, they would have been stashed away in Swiss bank accounts under false names. But now? The funds were hidden in Bitcoin wallets — untraceable and secure, especially when stored in foreign accounts.

To recover the funds, Kane sent a private message to Min Kyungsoo.

[Kane: I’ve got the slush funds and the ledger detailing the executives’ dirty secrets.]

[Kyungsoo: That was fast.]

[Kane: Do you have a crypto wallet?]

[Kyungsoo: Yeah, I do. Why?]

[Kane: The slush funds are stored in foreign crypto accounts.]

[Kyungsoo: No wonder the prosecutors never found anything.]

[Kane: Send me your wallet address, and I’ll transfer the funds.]

Moments later, Kyungsoo sent over his crypto wallet address.

Kane immediately transferred the entire slush fund to him.

The sum was astronomical — far beyond what any ordinary hunter could hope to earn in a lifetime.

In a world plagued by chaos and monsters, cryptocurrency had become far more secure than traditional assets.

[Kane: Check it. I sent everything.]

[Kyungsoo: Got it. Thank you. I won’t forget this favor.]

[Kane: I kept my promise, so you better keep yours.]

[Kyungsoo: Of course. Who do you think I am? I wouldn’t dare backstab you.]

[Kane: Good to know.]

As Kane was about to log off, Bu-er stepped forward with an unexpected revelation.

Bu-er pointed toward a hidden room. “It seems everything was stored here.”

Kane smirked.

Min HyeongBae had hidden everything in this secret space.

As the Final Admin, only someone with Kane’s unique authority could access it.

The room was protected by multiple layers of security — invisible to anyone else.

Because of that, Min Hyeongbae had stashed his entire fortune here.

Kane opened another ledger, his grin widening.

[Kane: I found something even more interesting.]

[Kyungsoo: What is it?]

[Kane: SG Group’s shares.]

[Kyungsoo: What the hell?! That’s even possible?]

[Kane: Look around. Does anything make sense these days? Monsters roam the earth. What used to be impossible is now reality.]

[Kyungsoo: If that’s true, things just got a whole lot easier!]

Kyungsoo’s excitement was palpable. The SG Group shares weren’t just numbers on a ledger — they represented control over the entire corporation.

With this discovery, Kane had handed Kyungsoo the keys to total power.

Min Kyungsoo’s voice was excited.

Things were going smoothly, and his mood was great.

He finished whispering.

“When are you coming?”

“I can come right now.”

“Let’s meet outside.”

Han Chanyul immediately logged out of the game.

He took off his VR gear.

Min Kyungsoo did the same.

Just then, Min Kyungsoo hugged him tightly.

“You’re not backing out, right?”

“Of course not. Stop hugging me bro.”

“Is this really that great?”

“Obviously. I get to hit back at my father and brother who screwed me over.”

“Honestly, couldn’t you just overpower them with force?”

“Well, I could… but I’d rather avoid bloodshed.”

“So, you still see them as family.”

Even if they had pushed him toward death, blood ties were blood ties.

That’s just how family works.

“Take care of the company and keep me posted.”

“Where are you going?”

“Home.”

“You still live in that cramped studio apartment, right?”

“For now.”

“There are lots of rooms here, and it’s spacious. Stay here for the time being. It’ll be more convenient for you to move around.”

It wasn’t in Seoul, but in Pangyo.

An apartment right in front of SG Games’ headquarters.

It made sense to stay here until things wrapped up.

“Staying at someone else’s place feels awkward, though…”

After thinking it over, Han Chanyul made up his mind.

“I’ll take you up on that offer for now.”

“Make yourself at home.”

Things hadn’t become complicated.

Chairman Min Hyungbae had left everything about himself inside the game.

Since Han Chanyul had handed all of it over to Min Kyungsoo, only one task remained: bringing down the chairman.

Sitting alone on the large sofa, Han Chanyul suddenly heard a voice.

“This place is really different from Teverland.”

It was Bu-er.

He had been hiding in Han Chanyul’s shadow.

“You can reveal yourself.”

“Ray doesn’t know my true form, though.”

“Then change into Blata’s form.”

“If that’s what you prefer.”

Bu-er transformed into a tiger.

Just then, Min Kyungsoo, who had been on a phone call, rushed toward Han Chanyul, suddenly remembering something, only to be startled out of his mind.

“W-Whoaah!”
