Dammit, Seong-Hwi thought as he looked around the white field, clicking his tongue.0

He and his team had completed Operation Pest Control a few days ago and were in the middle of their Subterra exploration. They had climbed down to the sub-fourth floor and were hunting Adora-rank Moledens. The lucid dream began as soon as he closed his eyes for a quick break after the battle was over.0

I thought the lucid dreams stopped after what happened in Ferrum.0

The lucid dreams, which he had been free from thanks to the Steel Rice Grain, had returned.0

Why? I’d bet it’s because of Operation Pest Control.0

Well over ten thousand Dark Humans had lost their lives in Subterra. He had personally selected only those who would become infamous in the future, and had killed around three thousand of them himself. Three thousand people were enough to pack an entire school gymnasium. He had destroyed over three thousand worlds.0

Am I feeling guilty? Was I still capable of such a thing? It must mean my humanity has yet to be completely worn down.0

Seong-Hwi couldn’t decide whether to feel happy that his humanity remained or sad that the lucid dream would corrupt his psyche.0

The only choice I have is to invest more Karma into the Steel Rice Grain, he thought as he walked across the snowy field.0

He could hear the sounds of snow crunching under his feet. No, perhaps...0
