Chapter 18 - The Lazy Prince - Episode 18 - Have I become a... main character??

Shun smiled slightly and held the man's head with his right hand. Suddenly, the man's head felt like it was about to crack, and he wanted to scream in pain, but Shun prevented him from making a sound so as not to disturb him. 

After writhing in agony for a while longer, his bright red pupils, where even the veins were visible, slowly closed; he was dead.

Shun felt nothing upon seeing this, and in less than a second, a purple flame engulfed the man, and he completely vanished. Of course, there was no need to randomly kill people, but this man was a complete scoundrel.

Needless to say, what he had just done was investigate the man's memory. Even when he first began investigating his memory, he had seen the evil and disgusting things he had done; seeing it all, even he couldn't help but feel a slight anger. There really were scoundrels like this in this world, weren't there?

After a slight sigh, he roughly estimated the location of the organization's headquarters based on the man's memory. He reached out his hand, and two girls came to his arms. Before they could react, he took a step and vanished completely.

When he reappeared, they were flying over a kingdom slightly larger than the one he had previously inhabited. 

The two girls were startled to appear suddenly and, frightened, wrapped their arms around Shun's neck. Shun smiled, "Don't be afraid, it's okay if you fall while you're here with me." After these words, the girls were slightly startled. 

What does he mean, it's okay if we fall? Why would we fall? Is there any chance of us falling while you're here?!??

Just as the girl he saved was about to say something, Shun gently closed his eyes and used his mind to search the kingdom. He locked onto the exact location according to his memory and, after noticing the people within, reached out his hand to that location.

Slowly, a white dot began to form in his palm. It looked dazzling in the darkness of the night, like the brightest star in the sky. If the people in the kingdom were to look up at the sky right now, they would realize they were above a star brighter than any other.

Sily and the other girl couldn't help but admire the star's beauty.

Shortly afterward, Shun gently pushed his hand forward, "Go, column of sky..."

The star in his hand shone with a dazzling light and swiftly flew towards a large mansion in an open field. As it reached directly above the mansion, the light intensified dramatically, and suddenly a column of light, approximately 5 kilometers wide, appeared, connecting the sky and the earth!

The entire kingdom was alarmed by the appearance of the column of light! It was impossible; the light was shining so dazzlingly, and it seemed to be rising entirely towards the sky, even surpassing it!

It was even possible to see this column of light from distant kingdoms!

After doing this, Shun took the two stunned girls and disappeared again. He had kept his promise; he had destroyed the organization at the center of everything. From now on, the other scattered organizations would either disperse like chicks or similarly form their own small organizations, but that didn't concern Shun. After all, he wasn't a saint; it was easy for him to do this, but... anyway, it doesn't matter.

Shun and the two girls suddenly appeared on a main road a short distance from the kingdom. The two girls were still in shock, especially the rescued girl. 

She didn't even know what to think right now. Just a few minutes ago, she was fleeing in a life-or-death crisis, and this man had saved her, then probably traveled a few thousand kilometers to the kingdom, destroyed an unknown region, and then disappeared again to her current location.

What's going on??? Who the hell is this guy? How can he be so powerful?!?!?!

She stared at the man beside her in shock and fear. She had already forgotten the slaps she'd given herself; after all, even if she hadn't forgotten, what could she do??

Sily was gazing at Shun with admiration! From the moment he saved her, she had begun to develop very special feelings for this man. 

Of course. Handsome, ultra-super-strong, or rather, how strong he was, was unknown, and he was kind to her. And kind and handsome! Yes, handsome again and again! Tell me, what girl wouldn't fall in love with a man like that??

Meanwhile, the rescued girl had somewhat recovered and, bowing respectfully to the man, said, "Thank you! If it weren't for you, I might have been dead by now..."

Shun waved his hand, his face expressionless, "It's nothing, and thanks to this, I've kept my promise."

The girl was surprised, what promise? Suddenly it came to her, it must have been related to the area she had just destroyed? Remembering the tattoo on the face of the man in black who had chased her, she finally understood!

But before she could say anything, a truck suddenly appeared from the side!

Yes, a truck!

Even Shun couldn't help but look at the truck in surprise. His head was full of question marks. 'A truck??? Isn't this world from the Middle Ages?' "What the hell is this truck doing here?!"

She had just felt a ripple from the direction the truck had come from, but she didn't pay attention. However, she couldn't help but be surprised when the truck started approaching them!

The truck started coming towards them at an extreme speed! The two girls stared at the truck in astonishment, they didn't know why, but they didn't even have a thought of escaping, they just watched the truck approaching them with bewildered eyes.

Shun, however, noticed the strangeness as the truck came closer. As the truck approached them, a strange ripple appeared above the three of them, completely enveloping their bodies and confusing them. This ripple was a space ripple, and it probably needed the truck to hit them to be fully triggered.

Shun could have stopped it, but he didn't, curious to see what would happen. At that moment, a truck came speeding and hit the three of them—or rather, it hit a space ripple. Just in case, Shun enveloped two of the girls in energy, wanting to prevent any harm. As for himself, well, it wasn't necessary.

The girls instantly lost consciousness when the truck hit them at full speed. Shun was unharmed and continued to watch what would happen.

The truck completely vanished upon impact, and the resulting ripple transformed into a space vortex, enveloping all three of them and completely disappearing from this world...

While going through the space vortex, Shun held onto the other two girls. Suddenly, he felt something trying to enter his head, and he frowned. But after thinking it over, he allowed it, and the thing instantly entered the deepest part of his mind, trying to merge, but no matter how hard it tried, it had no effect. So he silently stood there, as if looking around in astonishment.

As Shun tried to examine what it was, a bright light suddenly appeared!

Meanwhile, a strange aura began to surround Shun and the other two girls. Shun examined this aura and, upon understanding its purpose, couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

After thinking for a while, he allowed the aura to enter and envelop the three of them!

The bright light intensified, and the bodies of the three began to change! The bright light covered everything and finally passed. Shun opened his eyes and began to look around.

An endless green forest, a relaxing atmosphere! The only difference was that the trees were at least 30 meters tall, and the leaves and branches covered the entire sky!

After looking around for a while, he focused on what had entered his mind. After examining this thing, his face took on a strange expression. Finally, he tried to merge this thing with his mind, and it merged quickly. At that moment, a voice came from his mind!

'Ding!'

'Congratulations to the host for activating the system!'

'Beginner's Madness package is being sent to the host for activating the system... Sent!'

'Ding!'

'Beginner's Madness package received!' 'Does the landlord want to open it?'

Shun stared blankly at this information in his head. After a while, he came to his senses and spoke, "Hey, doesn't this sound like one of the main characters in the novels I often read? And I even got the strongest golden finger, the system!"

He really hadn't expected to one day become one of the main characters in the novels he read on the computer! If it had been before, before he started training with his father and moved to the new world, he probably would be going crazy with excitement right now! But after everything that had happened and with his current power, he wasn't feeling very excited...

Really, how long until you arrived at such a wrong time?!

But he was still curious. Usually, in series like this, the main characters go to worlds based on famous manga or anime; could we be in one of those worlds right now?

Ah! Right, let's open this beginner's madness, I'm curious to see what it will give us...

He said it in his mind, and beginner's madness opened.

'Ding!'

'Beginner's Madness package opened! Congratulations to the host, you've received the Fighting Spirit and the Fallen Angel!'

'Congratulations to the host, you've received the Fighting Spirit and the Desire Sword!'

'Congratulations to the host, you've gained a skill! Use simultaneously!''

'Ding!'

'New quest started! Participate in the spirit awakening baptism tomorrow in the Holy Spirit Village! Reward: Physics +50! Spirit Eye! (You can see all the skills and power of people up to 30 levels above yourself!) Note: The physique of an ordinary adult is approximately 7!'

Shun suddenly felt something enter his body, but he knew what it was because of the system's sound, so he allowed it in with a slight smile.

Two types of power entered the depths of his consciousness at once, and they arrived in an infinite space. Suddenly, the Fallen Angel and the Desire Sword seemed stunned, looking around where they stood.

Because this sea of ​​consciousness was infinite! On all sides, points shining like stars were visible, sometimes fires of different colors, and a few points darker than the deepest darkness!

The fallen angel's soul was initially arrogant and haughty, but upon seeing this infinite consciousness, it suddenly felt fear! What the hell is going on? We only came here to unite with the soul of a novice, what is this place?!?!

At that moment, a dragon's roar was heard from afar!

With this roar, both the sword of desire and the fallen angel's forms slowly distorted, and they looked in horror at the bright point approaching from afar!

The distant light did not wait long and quickly approached the two souls, but as it approached, the terror of the two souls increased even more!! What a terrifying power!

An infinitely magnificent dragon, its size unknown. It stopped near the two souls and began to look at them.

The fallen angel and the sword of desire looked at the entity before them with astonishment and terror! They cannot describe in words how shocked they are at that moment!

The dragon was probably still thousands of kilometers away from them, but even at that distance, its size was incredibly vast! Even a single eye was wider than the sky, imagine its size!

The dragon stared at the two for a few seconds, but for the two souls, those few seconds felt like years! Finally, it flapped its infinitely vast wings and vanished into the endless void...

The two souls remained motionless. 

'System brother, what kind of being did you give us to? Such a being couldn't even be found in the infinite universe! We're just two damned little souls...'

Shun observed the event in his mind and couldn't help but chuckle. Of course, it was Shun who had frightened the two souls. But he had no intention of destroying them; after taking their souls, he had probably realized which world they were in, douluo dalu.

He had read the manga years ago, but for some reason, he'd lost interest at a certain point and stopped. So, even though he knew the initial events, he didn't really know what happened in the finale. He also remembered there were a few spin-off series, probably set tens of thousands of years later, anyway.

Awakening these two souls during the soul awakening would be enough; as far as he remembered from the original story, twin souls were extremely rare, and there were only two known examples: the modern Papa Bibi Dong and the main character Tang San.

And with himself, there would be three, or so he knew... 

It could probably create a sensation on the continent; after all, twin souls were extremely rare, and if you didn't die, becoming a supreme power on the continent was only a matter of time—that was the most important characteristic of twin souls...

Shun stopped thinking about these things and couldn't help but look at the girls still lying on the ground and his own body. Yes, their bodies had shrunk, and they had reverted to their 6-year-old appearances! That bright light was useful for this, but it wasn't very important, in fact, it was fun. 

Sily was probably still a beggar when she was 6, so it makes sense that she would be a thin girl, but Shun had already purified her body. Even though she had reverted to her 6-year-old appearance, her body was still purified, meaning she was a sweet, chubby-cheeked 6-year-old girl.

The other girl was similar, a small, sweet girl with shoulder-length brown hair, and they were sleeping sweetly side by side.

Shun couldn't help but take a deep breath. I don't know if this girl is lucky or unlucky. I can't say anything about Shio, because she'll always be by his side, but this girl... I don't even know her name!

Could she adapt to this world? After all, she had a noble identity in the world she came from, and most likely a family; if she wanted, she could send her back to that world... anyway, we'll see when she wakes up.

As for herself, even though she had reverted to her 6-year-old appearance, she still had a face that pierced through heaven. Being 6 years old hadn't added anything to her; it had even added a slight sweetness to this magnificent face!

Impossible. After all, even if she reverted to being 6, the power within her couldn't be reversed by the system. So, despite how he looked now, he still possessed the power to obliterate the heavens with a wave of his hand...

Thinking about it, his excitement waned somewhat. Could he really feel excited when he had the power to handle everything?

At least he could restrict the energy in his body and fight using only his fighting spirit and spiritual power! That makes sense!

He immediately sprang into action and began placing various seals on countless points of his body. The power of each seal was terrifying, yet it seemed to have little effect on him. However, after continuously placing seals for a while, a noticeable decrease in energy became apparent! I don't know how many millions of seals he'd placed so far, but he still needed many more! 

After about 10 minutes, she took a deep breath. Finally, almost all of her energy was sealed! But her physical strength was still there, though there was nothing she could do about it. 

After the sealing process was complete, the two girls slowly began to regain consciousness...
