Ch. 56.2
[Humans believed they could obtain divine power from the 'Monument of New Moon' and started a war to seek it.]

‘Do they fight all the time?’

[The war was long. 10 years, 20 years, and finally 50 years. However, humans who emerged victorious from the war could not gain any power from the 'Monument of New Moon. It only brought disaster instead.]

‘Humans are the problem again.’

The history of war in this world was mostly caused by humans, initiated by humans, and humans were the problem. That was the only content.

Elves and spirits pursued peace, while dwarves were only interested in pounding the ground with their iron fists.

The various races like gnomes and kobolds formed their own tribes, enjoying a modest life of foraging and singing songs among themselves.

Only humans desired something, coveted and seized it to make it their own.

He really couldn’t tell who the demons were.

[When it was confirmed that the 'Monument of New Moon was no longer benevolent towards humans, the dark mages' religion, the "Dark Magic Faction," began to actively operate.]

"Ugh...!"

After slurping up the last drop of jjamppong broth, he patted his stomach. The restaurant owner was staring at him as if he were a strange creature.

[The leader of the Dark Magic Faction said, "The power of the Monument of New Moon is no longer exclusive to you. We, too, can obtain power from the New Moon.” The mages didn't believe it, but those words soon became a reality. Because...]

’Ow, my head.’

Everything was fine, except that the mental strain from the Direct Neural Interface was causing a headache.

[Mental Stamina EXP +0.01%]

Still, it was good to engage in this consistent mental stamina training. Even simply using the Direct Neural Interface had slightly increased the ability stat of mental stamina.

[The dark mages summoned mysterious powers from another realm and used magic to create a Persona Gate by punching a hole in reality. And in this place, common sense doesn't apply at all…]

‘Wait.’

[Yes, please speak.]

’Your voice sounds a bit monotonous. Can you read it with a little more tenderness?’

Right now, it felt like a machine was reading it. Even though it was actually a machine.

[How exactly would you like me to read it?]

‘Um... read it like a lover.’

[Such a function does not exist.]

‘Or like a girlfriend.’

[It would be easier and faster to get a girlfriend and ask her to read it instead.]

‘You're really getting on my nerves.’

As Baek Yu-Seol’s headache worsened, he disabled the voice output function and checked his stats.
