Chapter 6

Sung Sooho was 1 year old.

The day finally came when the cute baby took his first steps. Like all parents, Sooho’s household was in chaos, but in a slightly different way.

– H-honey! Sooho… Our Sooho is-!

– What happened to Sooho?

Sooho’s mother, Cha Haein, screamed in disbelief.

– He’s flying around right now!

– … What?

– Sooho is flying all over the house right now!

Sooho took his first step in the air, not on the floor. In fact, his ability to fly was one of the special powers inherited from his father, Sung Jinwoo, known as the “Ruler’s Authority.”

[… Sniff. I miss those days.]
The sight of Sooho, who learned how to fly before he could even walk at the age of 1, was like the legendary tale of a hero’s extraordinary birth, leaving Beru in tears.

But at the time, Earth was a very peaceful world.

The power that Sooho inherited was created to bring about destruction and it was useless in a peaceful world. Not only was it useless, but it also had the potential to make everyday life impossible. Therefore, Sung Jinwoo decided to seal that power until Sooho could control it.

[Now is the time, as the foreign apostles are invading the Earth! It is time for you, my little king, to unleash your sealed power!]

[Skill: Ruler’s Authority Lv.1]

Active skill.

No mana required.

You can physically affect objects without touching them.

Leaving Beru’s fuss behind him, Sooho fired the arrow he held with his invisible hand in the opposite direction.

“I’m giving it back.”

Splat! Thud!

[Krrhok!]

[You have defeated Goblin Archer.]

The Goblin Archer choked as the arrow he had shot pierced his own throat. Then the other goblins behind it were startled, turned their backs, and started running away.

Whoosh!

[Krrhok!]

‘Do you think I’ll let you run away!?’

Sooho caught up to the fleeing goblins with a single leap, catching them off guard.

“Huh?”

[Krrhok!?]

The two confused eyes met each other in the air.

[Kiekhehe! As your strength stat has increased; naturally, your jumping ability has also improved! You’ll adapt quickly!]

Beru’s voice explained with a sneer from above.

Sooho swung his axe straight down on the goblin’s forehead.

Thunk!

[Khiik!]

[You have defeated Goblin Scout.]

In the blink of an eye, Sooho had hunted down two goblins. He wiped the goblin blood off his face with the back of his hand and looked around with a sharp gaze.

Without a moment of peace since diving into battle, Sooho now realized that this monochrome world was not at all friendly to him. The malicious gazes filled with evil emanating from various parts of the ruined city were stimulating his Sense stat.
