Chapter 52.1: Until You're Sick of It (2)
Translator: Dreamscribe
The chairman of the Ohsung Group, Lee Woon-sung, was once only well-known within his own country, and just an ordinary businessman overseas. However, now, there was no one on Earth who could ignore him.
No matter which country he visited, he would be treated as a state guest.
Of course, there was no real reason for him to travel abroad. It was far more worthwhile to travel through the beautiful Arsilan.
"Another refreshing day."
He disconnected from the Soul Link and stepped out of the capsule.
The device he was using was the Soul Link Pro 2.
Soul Chips were being mass-produced, and the results were soon to be announced by Ohsung Electronics. The Soul Link Pro 2 would be released alongside the announcement.
Whereas before, the device had to be linked with a personal computer, the next-generation Soul Link came equipped independently with hardware developed by his grandson, Lee Jinwoo.
Everything could be handled comfortably within Arsilan Saga. It could even be linked with Ohsung Electronics' smartphones to make regular and video calls.
‘Hmm, this is good.’
That was Lee Woon-sung’s direct feedback to his grandson Jinwoo.
‘Still, I feel like it could do even more.’
Jinwoo only showed things little by little, as if hiding the full extent of the technology. Only after persistent requests would he sigh and finally oblige.
He was like a magician concealing his power.
‘Shower function, automatic supplement injection…’
Lee Woon-sung carefully wrote out a feedback list to give to Jinwoo!
Then he stepped out of his room and headed to the kitchen. When he opened the fridge, it was packed with all sorts of healthy ingredients.
Tap tap tap!
Lee Woon-sung began cooking himself.
He couldn’t entrust his grandson’s meals to someone else! Strangely enough, his knife skills improved day by day. It was as if watching a master chef.
Once he finished cooking with satisfaction, Lee Hee-jin and Lee Cheon-woo approached, as if they had been waiting, and moved the dishes to the dining room. Then they sat down silently, observing each other’s expressions.
“What’s not going well?”
“No, everything is proceeding smoothly.”
“Haha, good. Do your best. Not that it’ll make things any easier.”
Lee Hee-jin’s eyebrow twitched.
‘We’re short on talent.’
Her guild members were each worth a hundred men. But because they were an elite few, they were short on manpower. It wasn’t her intention to keep the numbers low, it was just that most people couldn’t keep up with the concept. No, rather than a concept, her guild members called it their true nature.
Kids these days lacked wildness and instinct!
‘Hmm…’
Lee Hee-jin considered whether, once the Soul Link was mass-produced, she might "bring in"- no, "recruit", some idols or actors from the entertainment agency she managed.
When Jinwoo came out, everyone looked at him and smiled brightly. Jinwoo flinched slightly and quietly took a seat.
“Looks like you’ve been busy lately.”
“Yes, well…”
“Haha! You’re preparing for a big event, so of course. I’m looking forward to it.”
When Lee Woon-sung said that, Lee Hee-jin also smiled brightly at Jinwoo, and Lee Cheon-woo patted him on the shoulder and gave him a nod.
All of these gestures were pressuring Jinwoo.
“Haha! Don’t go too far. If you make something even more incredible, the world will completely flip upside down.”
As always, the Ohsung family’s dining table was peaceful.
"Ahem, it seems like there's a lack of musical instruments...."
“I saw on the Arsilan Worlds suggestion board…”
Amid such idle chatter, Jinwoo quietly focused on his meal.
“Hahaha! Keep up the good work today too.”
“Fufufu! Noona is cheering for you.”
“Haha! That’s my little brother!”
Lee Woon-sung, along with his granddaughter and grandson, saw Jinwoo off to the front of the mansion. They waved with smiles, but as soon as the car carrying Jinwoo disappeared, their smiles vanished completely. Then, without a word, each returned to their own duties.
Back in his room, Lee Woon-sung immediately received a report. It wasn’t a report about the Ohsung Group. It was a collection of reactions to Arsilan Saga.
One of the pleasures of starting his morning.
Naturally, the beginning of it all was Lee Jinwoo.
As Jinwoo’s praises accumulated, it naturally developed into a new direction. A dedicated team was formed, and now it had become part of the daily routine. The reactions so far were beautifully compiled by the team members, who showed excellent editing skills.
Swish!
Lee Woon-sung put on his glasses and looked at his tablet PC.
The SNS materials appeared first.

At last, the Creator God is coming.
Heroes of America! When the Creator God descends upon this land, let us all go out to greet Him and offer our prayers!

*Arsilan Summoning Prayer
The tip of my sword cuts through the Abyss and shall judge the enemy!
My blood and flesh shall become soil to enrich Arsilan's holy land.
Invaders of Arsilan!
Gathering our bodies, minds, and souls as one, we shall wage a holy war to punish evil!
Fear us for all eternity!
O, Creator God!
I offer this burning soul entirely to You, so please hear my earnest prayer!
Summon your prepared servant to that land!
Place Your servant by Your side!
For Arsilan!
We are ready!

At the news that overseas service might begin soon, the reactions on SNS were explosive. People in various countries posted their national flags alongside the benevolent image of Creator God Jinwoo.
Some were even seen memorizing the grand 'Summoning Prayer'.
“Hmm! This is good.”
The overseas reactions were quite delicious.
It was a truly excellent photo, and the prayer wasn’t bad either. Lee Woon-sung nodded and clicked ‘Like’.
“When my grandson visits, the airport should be paralyzed with crowds! That’s the way it should be!”
It was only natural.
Even now, the response was at this level.
Once the overseas service launched and the scale reached millions, tens of millions, the world would change.
Some experts claimed it would have a negative impact on the world. They said people would shut themselves inside capsules, neglect the real world, and eventually die.
“What foolish nonsense!”
But Lee Woon-sung knew from firsthand experience.
Even though he was at an age where he could have retired, he felt himself growing even more. Arsilan Saga would teach people invaluable things they had never been able to learn before. It was an unstoppable trend, so the world had no choice but to accept it.
'The Land of Erosion is the smallest part of the enemies that will appear in the future....'
It was something he had heard briefly from his grandson.
That meant Arsilan would be vast, and the more Heroes there were, the better. Lee Woon-sung nodded and moved on to the next content.

Here’s my fan art of little Leon.
I drew this imagining happy times with the heroes. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t fully capture the original. Isn’t he just too cute?
Not only in Korea, but even famous manga artists and illustrators overseas were starting to become fans of little Leon. The amount of fan art of Leon in his younger form was becoming just as much as his original version. Jinwoo didn’t quite understand why the grumpy little Leon was so popular, but Lee Woon-sung knew.
Just looking at him made one feel warm inside, it was impossible not to be popular.
Moreover, it was Leon’s childhood appearance.
Posts from Arsilan Worlds had been exported overseas and even translated.
Title: Noona Will Make You Happy...
This was my third visit, and I played with Leon...
I even took a photo like this.
(Image attached: Leon sighing)
He’s a bit grumpy, but he still does everything I ask.
Look at this cute pose.
(Image attached: Leon with a disdainful gaze)
Hng!
This is the best shot!
I can’t escape from here.
(Image attached: Leon patting gently)
I’m happy.
I’ll come again tomorrow.
Anonymous1: This person is dangerous. His Majesty the King might get angry and throw her in jail.
Anonymous2: It’d be hilarious if Leon nim remembered this.
└Anonymous3: Frfr ㅋㅋ. Didn’t they say it’s a heart that transcends time and space? Imagine meeting Leon nim later and he remembers everything.
└LeonNimFootMat(original poster): Haa… I teased him a lot because he was cute.
└Anonymous4: You’re done for now. Leon nim is going to despise you.
└LeonNimFootMat(original poster): That might be fine too. Heh...
└Anonymous5: No, your ID itself is....
Lee Woon-sung nodded.
