Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Lord Aura
Seojun frowned as he appeared in the cave. The air was cool and damp, and shadows danced across the walls. It felt familiar, almost like the first time he arrived on Earth, making him think he had entered another dungeon.
[The door in returning is still not accurate, host, but we are on Earth near your home] the system informed him.
He glanced around, taking in the rough stone walls and the distant echoes of dripping water. Suddenly, he heard voices coming from behind him. He turned to see a group of people entering through a narrow tunnel, led by two women.
One of the women had long violet hair tied back with a flower pin, and her violet eyes shone with confidence. The other woman was taller and older, with shoulder-length white hair and deep black eyes.
[That woman with violet hair is Choi Ji-Eun, the guildmaster of the Black Lotus Guild, ranked third in Korea,] the system explained. [The woman beside her is Min Yoon-ji, her right-hand and ranked fourth.]
Seojun studied Ji-Eun, sensing the power radiating from her. She was strong, but he couldn't help but wonder, I wonder if she can handle mine.
Just then, one of the guild members spotted Seojun and shouted, "Look! There's a guy over there! Hey! What are you doing in here?!"
[Host, I've blocked your aura to avoid killing them,] the system warned.
Seojun smirked and replied, "Hmm, just let it be. I want to see how they handle it."
[But host, your peaceful life might change if you release your aura and got recognized]
Seojun stayed quiet, his curiosity growing. He stood in a dark part of the cave, making it hard for the guild members to see his face and they glanced around, trying to understand who he was without being able to see him clearly.
"Hey! You better answer us when we're asking you! Don't you know who we are?!" another guild member yelled, his voice filled with annoyance as they kept their distance.

Ji-Eun and Yoon-ji watched in silence, their expressions serious as they observed Seojun, who seemed unfazed by their shouts. The rest of the guild grew more agitated, trying to provoke a response from him.
"We were the first ones to enter this dungeon and forbid anyone in entering. How did he get here?" Ji-Eun muttered.
"Maybe he's lost?" Yoon-ji suggested, eyeing Seojun carefully.
As Seojun stood in the dark, the system finally stopped blocking his aura.
Yoon-ji's eyes widened in shock. "Everyone Back off!" she shouted, raising her hands to cast a barrier. The other guild members immediately followed her lead, scrambling backward in fear.
Slowly, a black aura began to seep from Seojun's body, swirling in the darkness. Yoon-ji took out her scythe, ready to defend herself. Ji-Eun watched in amazement. "A small amount of aura, yet terrifying," she mumbled.
The guild members struggled to keep their composure as the aura's presence pressed down on them. "What is that? I can't breathe!" one member gasped, falling to his knees.
"It feels like it's crushing me!" another shouted, clutching his chest in panic.
"I can't take it! It's too much!" a third member cried, falling to the ground as the weight of Seojun's aura surrounded them.
Yoon-ji's barrier flickered and shimmered, but it held strong, slowly stabilizing everyone. "Stay calm,"
Suddenly, they heard his voice, low and calm. "5%."
The aura intensified. "20%."
A burst of dark energy leaked from his body, slamming against Yoon-ji's barrier. The barrier started to crack under the pressure.
"It's pushing my barrier?" her eyes wide with disbelief. "How is this possible?"
"I-Impossible! His pushing Ms. Yoon-ji barrier just by an Aura!" one of the guild members yelled, his face pale with fear.
Ji-Eun stared at Seojun, her heart racing. "This can't be happening…Just who is he?"
"Ms. Ji-Eun! we have to retreat!" another member shouted, backing away slowly.
As the aura continued to push against Yoon-ji's barrier, the tension in the cave thickened.
Seojun watched them struggling, "20% of my aura is pushing them? How weird. They're top rankers, right?"
[Host, you are far stronger than them. The Abyss you have been trapped in has different levels of monsters and fast leveling. The A-rank dungeon you first arrived in had the dungeon boss, a Minotaur, at level 800, and it is considered A-rank, the second highest.]
"Yeah, I've noticed that," Seojun said, contemplating the difference in power. He decided it was time to stop teasing them. "Block it, system," he commanded.
Slowly, his aura began to retreat back into his body. As the pressure lifted, Just as Seojun's aura faded completely, Yoon-ji charged forward with her scythe, ready to strike.
"Shadow Bind!" she shouted anddark tendrils of energy shot out from her scythe, aiming to ensnare Seojun.
But before her attack could connect, Seojun suddenly vanished.
"He...Dissapear" Yoon-ji stood frozen couldn't believe what just happened.
"Interesting, Let's immediately cleared the Dungeon. They have to know this, A powerful being just appeared." Ji-Eun with her smile took out a petal and blow at it , Slowly turing into dust.
Meanwhile, Seojun walked casually through the dark cave, feeling that what he was wearing is different from what he had worn before entering the Abyss earlier, It was not the clothes his wearing when their in the Cafe with his Mom and he remembered how his clothes had changed when he arrived.
Curious, he opened his inventory and quickly switched out his outfit that his wearing beforesettling on the comfortable jacket with a hood. He slipped his hands into the pockets and continued on his way.
As he wandered, a familiar sight caught his eye. A goblin appeared ahead, resembling the one he had encountered in the labyrinth before. This one had a green body, muscular build as tall as human, and black veins snaking across its skin. Its completely black eyes stared at Seojun, and it wore a necklace made of sharp fangs.
Seojun checked the goblin's status.
[Status]
Name: Abyss Captain Goblin
Rank B
"Hmm," Seojun hummed thoughtfully. The goblin suddenly charged at him, attempting to tackle him. Seojun quickly dodged to the side, watching as the goblin crashed into the cave wall with a loud thud. Angered, it pulled back its fist and began hurling rocks at Seojun.
[Host, why don't you finish it off?]
"Where's the fun in that? I want to see what else this monster can do," Seojun replied with a smirk, easily sidestepping the flying debris without taking a step back or forward.
The goblin, now panting heavily, glared at him. Smoke billowed from its mouth as it caught its breath, clearly frustrated.
"Is that all you can do? You can't entertain me more?" Seojun taunted, his voice dripping with mockery. The goblin's anger only deepened, its muscles tensing as it prepared for another attack.
With a fierce roar, it lunged at Seojun once again. As Seojun prepared to engage the goblin, he suddenly felt the grip around his waist tighten. Before he could react, he were knocked to the ground along with the figure that pull him, a loud thud echoing in the cave.
Seojun frowned as he landed,
As he pushed himself up, he glanced to his side and saw a familiar figure. "Min Yoon-ji?" he mumbled, recognizing the woman who had been with the guild earlier.
