Hell's Handbook

Chapter 310

30,000? Su Jin frowned. This was probably still within the acceptable boundaries of the Handbook, and he didnt think he would be able to affect the running of the Handbook at the moment.

He went into Hells Bar and was prepared to get himself a nice drink. He was seldom in the mood or had the time, after all. His team had been disbanded, so the teams table was no longer available. He had no choice but to sit at the bar and order a drink.

The boss seemed to still remember Su Jin, or perhaps he could recognize every owner that had been to Hells Bar before. He glanced at Su Jin, then placed a drink in front of him.

Drunken Dreams. Just drink this down and your troubles will disappear. The boss smiled and tapped on the side of the glass.

Su Jin smiled sadly. He pushed the drink back toward the boss and shook his head. Thanks, but now I cant just stay depressed and not do anything. This drink has come a little too late.

Then what about this thing? The boss put down a nicely packed package in front of Su Jin. There was an envelope attached to it too.

Su Jin was very puzzled. Someone had sent him something? He picked up the envelope and his eyes instantly flew open. The sender was none other than Ye Yun. He tore the envelope open and started reading the letter carefully.

Hello Brother Su! By the time you read this letter, I must have left this world. How can I be so sure? Because I made arrangements for this letter to be sent to you only after I died. Never would have guessed, right? My silly Brother Su?

Come to think of it, Brother Su is really silly. You actually went to Shen Wus universe just to rescue me and nearly lost your life in the process, but I really like how silly you are, and I really like how youre willing to sacrifice everything for my sake. But I dont know if I deserve your sacrifice.

Oh man, Im getting a little emotional! Im supposed to be the bold and fearless Ye Yun! Since Im already dead, I think there are some things I ought to explain clearly to you. That is, why Shen Wu was so bent on capturing me and what he was hoping to gain from me.

The answer is in the package. But do not open it in Hells Bar, the item inside might cause a commotion because its a Badge of Godhood!

Youre not seeing things. Its really a Badge of Godhood. I got it during a Level A Challenge. Ive not been able to find a way to use it, but its a genuine item. It can help an ordinary owner become a god!

By this point, Su Jins eyes were nearly falling out of their sockets. This was definitely not a reason he would have ever thought of. Then again, it made perfect sense. What else would make someone like Shen Wu, a top ranked owner with full dominion of his universe, go to such lengths to obtain?

Im already dead, so if Shen Wu or anyone else tries to make trouble for you, just tell them that it died with me. All things that still belong to the owner will perish with the owner after all. This badge brings trouble, but its also a rare and precious treasure. I dont know if its useful to you or how to use it even, but theres nothing I can do about that now. Its yours. You decide if you want to broil it, steam it, deep fry, or stir fry it.

Also, thank you for taking care of me all this time. Yours sincerely, the ever worrisome super beauty, Ye Yun.

Su Jins heart began to ache terribly as he stared at the letter in his hands. The badge was very precious, but it was nowhere as precious as this letter. It was nowhere as precious as any of the words written here.

I see your emotions have been affected. Do you need this now? The boss pushed Drunken Dreams toward Su Jin again with a scheming smile on his face. He whispered, Ill sell you at a good price. Just 1,000 points.

Su Jin smiled sadly, then took hold of the glass. But just when he was about to throw his head back and drink everything in one shot, his Handbook suddenly gave off a blue glow. Someone was calling for him.

He opened his Handbook to find that it was a call from Situ Jin. The team had disbanded, but it only meant that they didnt have to go through Challenges together. They continued to keep in touch since they hadnt become enemies as a result or anything like that.

Situ, whats up? Su Jin picked up Situ Jins video call.

Situ Jins face appeared in his Handbook and his voice was anxious, Come to N Ocean, now!

N Ocean? Whatever for? Su Jin was puzzled.

Situ Jin continued, Some folks from the Dark Council have arrived by boat and they insist on making trouble for you. I cant hold up for long damn it there are more than 20 of them and theyre all expert fighters, so hurry up and come over!

Su Jins expression fell and he pushed the drink back to the boss. Looks like I wont be able to drink this today. Well talk another time!

The boss just nodded and didnt say anything. Su Jin grabbed hold of the package. This carried a Badge of Godhood! Good heavens no wonder Shen Wu had gone insane over it.

After he left Hells Bar, Su Jin enveloped his body with psychokinesis, then flew into the sky and headed for N Ocean. It didnt take long for him to arrive. The bit of psychokinesis he had left on Situ Jin was still intact and acted as a GPS of sorts. As long as Su Jin did not connect to it, it did not consume any of his energy, so he could keep it there for an extremely long time.

Over there? Su Jins body moved like a flash of silver light, travelling several miles in a second. He reached Situ Jin in less than 30 seconds.

Situ Jin was standing on one of many warships, but nobody from the navy was allowed to take down any records from this incident. Also, Situ Jin was the only person from the Department of Supernatural Affairs who was present.

Facing Situ Jin were 20 people in black priest robes. Among them were three people who had made trouble for Su Jin in Africa earlier on. But they were clearly not in high positions within the Dark Council, so they had to stand toward the back of the group.

The leader of the group was an old man with completely white hair. He looked rather genial, but when Su Jin looked at his eyes, he saw nothing but aggression in them.

Thats a tough one, mumbled Su Jin before flying toward Situ Jin. As he approached, all the weaponry on the warship turned to aim at him.

Situ Jin shook his head as a signal. The weaponry did not move away, but Su Jin landed safely next to Situ Jin anyway. Of course, the weaponry didnt bother him at all. The weapons of this age couldnt hurt him, besides a nuclear bomb.

The person youre looking for is here. You can talk to him, shouted Situ Jin very loudly. Then he whispered to Su Jin without moving his lips, They came looking specifically for you. Im afraid these guys arent friendly.

Thats kinda obvious. Theyve come in such a large group and they dont mind falling out with someone from the Chinese government. Theyre definitely not here for a friendly visit, said Su Jin with a faint smile.

The old man leading the group from the Dark Council said, Youre Su Jin?

Thats right, Im Su Jin. Su Jin nodded slightly, then asked, Do we just start fighting? Or you wanna talk a little before that?

The members of the Dark Council immediately felt that Su Jin was simply too arrogant and their expressions darkened. Then again, this was also the one who managed to defeat Abbas the corpse controller, an owner who was ranked among the top #100. Su Jin had every right to be arrogant.

Hello, Mr. Su. I am the chairman of the Dark Council, Satan! said the old man to Su Jin in a loud voice.

Satan? The name of the devil? This old man has a serious case of chuunibyou. Both Su Jin and Situ Jin couldnt help but crack a smile. Regardless of whether this was his given name or a name he had given himself, it sounded weird either way. Goodness knows how many in the western hemisphere would snort or roll their eyes at such a name.

Hello, Mr. Satan. Im not sure why youve brought so many people to my country, said Su Jin in a grim voice.

I am here for one simple reason. I hope that you can join the Dark Council and become one of our members, replied Satan.

Su Jin raised an eyebrow. He didnt expect that response. Situ Jin remarked, They cant defeat you, so theyre asking you to join them instead?

Are you trying to co-opt me into the organization? asked Su Jin with a smile.

Satan smiled as well and said, I wouldnt consider it that. We dont know what the world will look like in the future, and Im sure Mr. Su would be able to foresee that only people like us can become the leaders of this world, not ordinary humans. Youre very powerful the fact that you managed to kill Abbas is proof of that and I dont want to see a formidable character like yourself die in a conflict. So, joining us is your best choice.

Su Jin glanced at Tracy, who was standing right at the back of the group. He said calmly, Im not convinced about how sincere you are, especially since Ive killed that womans father. Miss Tracy, are you sure you dont have any plans to take revenge?

Tracy shuddered slightly and glared at Su Jin with a vengeful and furious look in her eyes, but her speech was calm and deferential, I was the one who offended you first and my father died because of my ignorance. All of this is my fault in the first place, so there is no reason for me to seek revenge on you.

Clap clap! Su Jin applauded her and laughed. Haha! How interesting, how very interesting! For the sake of gaining more power, youre willing to suppress your true emotions. But Tracy, I think youve forgotten that I have psychokinesis just like you do. And for people like us, its super easy to find out what others are thinking about, right?

Tracy was puzzled for a moment when she noticed a tiny silvery spark on her shoulder. It turned out that Su Jin had already read their minds earlier and found out that these people werent interested in recruiting him at all. They were trying to trick him into entering a cage they had specially built for him. They failed to kill him, so their next plan of action was to just trap him forever.

Enough of this nonsense! Only one of us will live to see tomorrow! Its either the Dark Council or myself! said Su Jin calmly.
