Secret room cannot be obtained right now…

If he could, he had this desire to infiltrate the sect right now. However, the map was not something he could obtain now. The last time he asked the simulation ‘How to obtain the remaining map pieces?’

<The object has been lost.>

The result was that it could not be obtained in this life. So after a little more deliberation, he asked at what time period he had to go to get it.

And it answered,

<Choose the ‘highest difficulty’ among the Three Lives Earth Demon presents.>

The life he had chosen was the lowest difficulty one. In this selection, it was not possible to collect all the pieces.

“You mean you have to set the record back there.”

In addition, Seol-Hwi continued to ask questions he was curious about.

The questions he asked were like this.

“Tell me how to get stronger than now.”

<The range cannot be calculated now.>

The answer did not come.

After training, it was time again and he asked,

“Fight with End Demon, the First Disciple.”

<Not a target that can be calculated.>

So since he was too strong, it could not be used. Again time passed.

“Tell me how my subordinates are.”

<Unknown what happens beyond the defined area.>

When things went past Sichuan, the simulation did not seem to have control. And yesterday—

Seol-Hwi asked

“Tell me about the AI.”

It was an unexpected question, but the Simulation responded.

<You must obtain consent of the AI. You want to continue? Accept/Reject.>

“Huh…”

He thought for a while until he chose to accept.

<Contacting AI…>

It took some time and Seol-Hwi continued to watch it.

<AI has accepted!>

Along with the sign of acceptance, countless words were displayed before him.

<AI, player Sa Yugang, is a player with 50,000,233 lives and is a person who has risen to the highest level of the Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation. The starting point was the disciple of the Fourth Demon and the captain of the Hidden Truth Corps with the highest achievement as second in the sect.>

Sa Yugang…

Thanks to this, he came to know the original name of the AI and found that the past was not a lie. Approximately there are around 50 million players who have challenged this system.

On top of that, second place… did not that mean being below the sect leader?

The simulation presented other information.

<He has 102,334 kills, has reincarnated 5,526 times, and completed 180 missions. When a technique is converted to martial arts, the number of those owned by the AI is 1,039 and the state of level is higher.>

“What!”

Seol-Hwi doubted his eyes.

Profound Demon then?

This means he was over Supreme Demon.

Of course, when he thought about it, to come back 5,000 times it was not like he would not be this strong but Profound Demon was like to be a god.

He could not help it, but he was astonished at the fact that he had reached this point, no, he was shocked a human could even do it.

<Sa Yugang’s combined score is 3,500 points, and he gets the title of AI. You have been recruited as a target. For more information, ask the AI directly.>

“…”

Seol-Hwi could not speak.

Maybe he will have to think deeply to know what this means.

And now—

Now the situation came where he can use the simulation again.

<Which Simulation would you like?>

Can this work too?

Seol-Hwi thought about it and came up with a good thought. It might not work, but he thought it would be good to try it.

“Are there any other players besides me in this situation?”

He was curious about it.

There is no way he was alone here.

<Analyzing…?>

Uh? What?

Seol-Hwi was nervous now. If the player exists, then what kind of person were they? Soon, the answer came.

<There is one player.>

“…!”

Seol-Hwi was shocked. He never thought there would be someone else here. And what was more surprising was—

<Would you like us to contact them? Accept/Reject.>

That was unexpected.

By the time three months had passed—

His training was almost at its end. He was proficient enough to use all three levels of the dantian and almost as he wanted.

In the meantime, he would get food from the villages around. There were large and small water bodies between valleys, and with the fertile soil, there were many people who gathered there.

“Ugh.”

And Seol-Hwi was now interested in something other than training.

It was a fact which did not leave his mind, there was a player like him.

Over the past three months he had many questions which he asked the Simulation.

‘What is the System?’,‘What does an AI mean?’, ‘What is a simulation for raising to Heavenly Demon Star?’

He was able to get various answers, but the one thing he could not stop thinking about was the one other player in here.

The simulation gave a vague answer when asked. It should have known about him or her, but it refused to speak since it could not find them or because they were too high level.

“I need to call the AI.”

As it happened, Seol-Hwi finally decided. Unlike being frustrated at the Simulation, he will speak a lot more.

“The conditions should have been met by now…”

After meeting Wang Mo-ryeok in the past, the AI said he could not meet for 731 days.

And he looked at the 731 days which seemed to have passed through the many deaths.

There have been around four lives since the deaths, and a total of two years must have passed. And he was in a situation where he could call him.

“The problem is how do I call…”

This was the problem.

Unlike before, he did not react to threats or battles. In the past when he was Peak Demon, he jumped out only when Seol-Hwi was threatened.

Wait.

There, Seol-Hwi had this thought

Does he need to feel threatened to come out?

His memory was fuzzy now, but when the AI first came, there was no such condition, and it would come across as such a situation when he had those thoughts.

Then the AI can come whenever I want…

In a crisis or fight he managed to Ai out on his own, not because of the situation because of his thoughts

Seol-Hwi raised his gaze.

Combat method <AI>

He changed the method but could not see him. Even so, Seol-Hwi spoke.

“Hey, you fucking AI bastard!”

He cursed and yet nothing happened.

“You bastard. A man who drowns in his own shit. You fucking trash!”

He used all the curses he could but nothing happened.

Maybe not?

After cursing for a while, Seol-Hwi tried to change the method.

He had been reincarnated a thousand times, so he could not be an AI who reacted to simple curses, so there was a need to use a more unusual method.

I can make this angry then… right.

Seol-Hwi opened his eyes with a serious face.

“You number two idiot. The one who couldn’t become Heavenly Demon despite a thousand chances. A bug with no talent. Who knew nothing but whines about losing…”

It was then—

<AI intervenes into the body of Seol-Hwi.>

Along with that, it happened in the blink of an eye

“Kuak!”

Someone grabbed Seol-Hwi by the neck.

Hum

Before he thought “how?” in his mind… he felt a lot different from the past.

Instead of the AI taking over the body, he could feel something gripping around his neck.

“Do you want to die…”

Seol-Hwi’s eyes widened.

Looking back, he stood there with half of his body taken over and half like an illusion. It was a situation where the main body and the AI were sharing the same body.

“S-sorry. I didn’t know how to call you…”

For some reason he felt pain. The fact that it was unknown if this was an ego or a body made it more flustering for him.

Tuk

By the time his face turned yellow, the AI let go.

“Kuak. Kuak!!”

Seol-Hwi grabbed his throat and coughed.

The AI is presenting you with a choice. Do you want to extend the duration? ?Extend (Per one second, cannot use the AI for one day) ?Return to your original body

The AI demanded it again.

Seol-Hwi chose “increase.”

“Cheeky idiot. If you do that one more time, you will die in my hands.”

Hearing that, the gaze of Seol-Hwi changed.

Can the AI kill him?

The thought itself was absurd, but for some reason after experiencing the choking, he thought it was possible.

“If you don’t believe it, I can show you. Killing you is nothing.”

“…”

He was a guy who could read his thoughts.

As expected, this was closer than a simulation now.

“I apologize again. There are too many things to ask and I barely see you…”

Seol-Hwi lowered his head. From the simulation’s realm he knew he could not act out.

Survival was his top priority, not pride.

“Huh. What do you want to ask?”

“Yes. Firstly…”

Seol-Hwi mentioned to AI what had happened in the past, especially three months back, and more than anything else, about the existence of other players

Then—

“It is good you didn’t make contact. Had you tried to find them, you would have died right away.”

“Is that so? Why…”

“That is what normally happens.”

The AI snorted and referred to the person as him.

Seol-Hwi asked,

“Is he… the Heavenly Demon?”

Suddenly one of the two people that the AI talked about in the past came.

If Su Yugang had been the AI, would not one of the two still be here?

“I don’t know.”

“What do you mean?”

“If he puts his mind to it… he can be anyone.”

“…”

“Just know that. There is no way to explain now.”

And the AI frowned like he was in a bad mood, so Seol-Hwi asked something else. This question was not to offend him but rather compliment him.

“I heard you were strong in the past… how could you lose to him?”

He was at the Profound Demon level.

In addition, through thousands of reincarnations he must have mastered countless martial arts. So Seol-Hwi thought that losing with all that made no sense.

Flinch

“I am sorry.”

When the AI glared at him, Seol-Hwi bowed his head, but this time it seemed like it was not due to him.

“He is a guy from a different background than us.”

“…Uh? Born differently?”

“Yes.”

Wheik

The AI looked away.

Despite not looking at the eyes, Seol-Hwi could know what he was thinking.

Jealousy maybe?

“I started out as a leader for a squad.”

“Yes.”

“You must know I started as one to the Hidden Troops Corps.”

“Yes.”

After a short pause AI said,

“Where do you think he started?”

“…Well.”

“Heavenly Demon.”

“…Uh?”

Seol-Hwi blinked wondering if he heard it wrong.

The AI spoke to him clearly again.

“Born as the Heavenly Demon. Under the system called the Heavenly Demon Cultivation Simulation System.”
