The sweet and savory scent of soy sauce and the sizzling sound of meat cooking wafted in from somewhere.

That sound and aroma made his stomach churn.

Growl~

Overcome by extreme hunger, Seong suddenly awoke.

The smell of soy sauce hit him hard—it wasn’t a dream.

A familiar scent.

Even the sound of meat grilling reached his ears.

There was no way he couldn’t guess the menu.

‘Bulgogi?’

As Seong thought that and looked around—

He could see the darkening sky outside the window.

‘Ah... I must’ve dozed off.’

He had come out of the capsule around lunchtime and must have fallen asleep.

He’d been asleep for quite a while.

He must’ve been really exhausted—he had completely knocked out.

And to be fair, that made sense.

‘Combining the two techniques was harder than I expected.’

He had used both Helena’s and Hindel’s memories simultaneously.

It must have taken quite a toll on his real body.

Next time he used it, he probably wouldn’t get this tired.

It was just the first time.

Thinking that, Seong left his room.

His mother, Lee Na-gyeong, was still cooking.

“Oh my~, you’re awake~?”

At her question, Seong gave an awkward smile and nodded.

“Yes, I was only going to rest for a bit since I was tired... but I slept until now.”

“Will you be able to sleep tonight?”

Lee Na-gyeong asked with a touch of concern, and Seong nodded.

He could sleep whenever he wanted, really.

In fact, that ability might be more enviable to modern people than seeing ghosts.

Seeing that, Lee Na-gyeong nodded as if that settled it.

When Seong offered to help, his mother stopped him.

“Oh my~? Let Mom handle it. Do that after you get married~”

“...Huh?”

Why did she suddenly bring up marriage?

Seong gave her a confused look.

But she said it without a care.

“These days, to be a loved husband, you have to help~ Just look at your father—he always tries to help Mom~”

“...? Ah, alright.”

“Mm-hm, sit down~ I’ll call you when it’s ready~”

“Yes, yes.”

Seong, caving under his mother’s persistence, sat down on the sofa.

Then he pulled out his phone.

There wasn’t really anything worth watching on TV.

So Seong turned on his phone and entered the Eternal World community.

And what he saw was utter chaos.

[Massive War Between Wiron and Badia! The Victor is the Demon King!]

[The Demon King’s Battle is Insane]

[Did you see the Demon King fight? It was straight-up cosmic horror.]

All of it was about Seong.

Seeing that, Seong rubbed his chin.

“Hmmm.”

It was more explosive than he thought.

But then again, it made sense.

Badia had suddenly violated the pact and sent in overwhelming forces.

That alone was newsworthy, and Seong had stopped them.

Of course it would go viral.

On top of that, just the day before, Seong had used the massive Hand of Calamity, leaving a giant palm print—that only fueled the hype even more.

Even though it had initially been attributed to an NPC, once people found out Seong had done it—

Online opinions blew up.

‘The public reaction’s better than I expected.’

He hadn’t meant to ego-search...

But it ended up that way, and he felt a little embarrassed.

So Seong tried looking for other information.

And he found some useful posts.

[Title – Total Chaos in the Balian Empire?]

[Posted by – StealthFailer]

“I heard the Emperor Ma-seong of the Balian Empire is absolutely furious?

I only heard it from an NPC, so I don’t know the details,

but apparently the Emperor said he’s not letting this slide.

Are we about to get a war event between two nations?

If we do, that’d be sick.”

[BrokenEnhancement: Are we getting a war?]

[ShieldToTheFace: Honestly, the Rieskan Kingdom messed up;;; Without the Demon King, Wiron would’ve been wiped.]

[LootedAndDied: Didn’t Wiron strike first with a massive AoE?]

└[DeathFlagger: No, that was just a user skill during battle; starting a war over that is ridiculous.]

[TauntedAndDied: Don’t care, war sounds fun lol]

It was pretty entertaining info.

Even if the credibility was uncertain, in-game war events were always a fan favorite.

Still, Seong had other priorities.

‘I need to investigate those spies from [N O V E L I G H T] Badia.’

With his newly acquired power of the dead and his vassals, it might be easy to find out.

Just as he was thinking that, dinner was ready. His sister Yu Mina and father Yoo Gwang-jin, freshly washed, also arrived.

Over dinner, Seong organized his plans for tomorrow’s login.

The first thing he needed to do was already decided.

‘The demon mage... Wonder who it’ll be.’

Murmuring inwardly with a sense of anticipation, Seong finished his meal and spent some rare family time together before drifting into deep sleep.

There was much to do tomorrow.

So he went to bed early—and slept as if he’d been knocked out cold.

The next day.

Like always, Seong completed his morning routine, ate breakfast, and logged into Eternal World.

After clearing the usual welcome message, he looked around.

It was the same bench Helena had brought him to yesterday.

He must’ve forgotten from exhaustion, because Seong mumbled to himself.

‘Ah, so this is where I was.’

He was about to summon the demon mage—but held back.

Doing it in a city would just attract attention from other players.

Better to summon somewhere quiet.

Rather than heading to the forest—

He opened the Netherworld.

Not to summon vassals.

But to enter it himself, after a long time.

As Seong stepped into the Netherworld—

The Dark Castle, essentially the body of Noctrynium, greeted him, and the death soldiers stationed there were shocked by his sudden appearance. They instantly lined up and saluted him.

A staggering army, nearly 100,000 strong.

After yesterday’s battle, most of the corpses had been gathered and sent into the Netherworld—turned into undead soldiers along with their spirits.

Now, that full army, ten thousand times ten, moved in formation toward Seong.

Stomp! Clang!

The ground seemed to tremble under the weight.

They shouted in unison.

—We pay homage to our Lord!!!

Seong flinched for a moment.

He was used to his death soldiers and vassals doing this—but never an army of this size.

“Er-hem, alright. At ease. You may all rest.”

Was it because he’d just gotten out of military service?

His voice came out like a commanding officer.

The death soldiers nodded and went back to their tasks.

Thankful that they followed orders so well—

As Seong moved to walk—

“Oh my, Seong’s here~!?”

Helena came out of the Dark Castle to greet him.

Seeing her, Seong chuckled.

“I figured it’d be better to summon her here.”

“Right? This is definitely the place.”

Helena nodded in agreement.

After all, the demon mage would be living here too.

Getting her used to the place in advance seemed like a good idea.

As Seong entered the Dark Castle with Helena beside him—

His vassals, having heard the news, quickly gathered.

Anemore and Kalisha, with their massive bodies. Barfur.

Leonik, Silvanor, Drakanos, Shivren, and Noirtein—holding their swords and eyes gleaming with anticipation.

Fiora, Serpina, and Helena—equally excited.

And for some reason, Valtar, whose eyes trembled wildly with unease.

They had all gathered.

A total of twelve vassals.

It was a lot—but Seong was used to it and simply said,

“Well then.”

He didn’t bother saying he would summon her—he just used the skill.

[Summoning the Demon Mage.]

As the prompt appeared, a black skull and a magic circle formed in front of Seong’s outstretched hand.

The magic circle unfolded, revealing an emblem like a black sun.

Helena burst into laughter.

“Ahahahaha! Now there’s a familiar face.”

—Ah... ah...

In contrast, Valtar turned completely pale, stunned speechless.

Seong paid him no mind and focused on the summoning circle.

The emblem of the black sun expanded.

A black sun even appeared in the sky like a projection.

A massive hand grasped the black sun.

It shifted back and forth in its grip, radiating black flames.

The heat it gave off as it swept through endless waves of monsters—

Hotter than the fires of hell, it burned everything to ash.

The black sun rose again over the fading lives.

And as the world turned to cinders—

From the ashes, something began to rise.

Clack, clack.

Footsteps echoed, and a hole formed in the cinders.

Out stepped a woman in an elegant black dress, her skin paler than snow, with two black horns rising from her head.

Smiling gently, she emerged.

She, who commanded the black sun and enslaved all its kin, appeared—

And seeing Seong, bowed her head deeply, delicately lifting her dress with both hands in devotion.

The demon mage greeted her master with submission from the moment she arrived.

Seeing that, Seong nodded unconsciously.

“Oh.”

Then, a system message appeared.

[You have summoned 『Veladrina, Master of the Black Sun』.]

[You are the first to summon a Demon Mage in Eternal World.]

[You have earned the title: 『Demon Mage Summoner』.]

[You are the first to subjugate a noble-class demon 『Veladrina, Master of the Black Sun』.]

[You have earned the title: 『Master of the Demon Mage』.]

Seeing the message, Seong tilted his head slightly.

The name felt oddly familiar.

Then Veladrina spoke.

—I greet my master, Lord of All Demons, Seong.

“Right. I look forward to working with you.”

Still not placing it, Seong answered as he moved to speak further—

Then he spotted Valtar, trembling violently, head lowered as far as possible.

In that moment, the memory returned.

At the same time, Veladrina smiled faintly and murmured,

—Though I have just been summoned and things are hectic, there is something I must say.

“...Huh?”

Seong reacted.

Veladrina smiled as she said,

—It seems there is a shameless thief among us.

At that, Seong was sure.

Valtar’s ex-girlfriend. The owner of the panties Valtar stole.

—Been a while, hasn’t it? Panty thief?

—......

Valtar’s eyes trembled violently.
