Absolute Dweller

The first thing I did was evacuate the people living in the domains around the world.

‘It won’t be able to form inside the domain.’

This was a conclusion I had reached after absorbing the heart of the World Tree that had grown in Africa.

The basic way the World Tree appears is similar to the way monsters appear.

In other words, if it were to appear in Asia or North America, under the influence of the house declaration skill, it would be trapped in a dungeon, just like other monsters.

‘It wouldn’t be so foolish as to do that.’

If that were to happen, it would actually be a blessing.

After bombing the dungeon with nuclear strikes, I could just take the heart of the World Tree.

There would be no negative impact on the Earth, just like now.

‘So, as long as they enter the domain, they’ll be safe...’

Accepting people into South Korea was just a precaution in case something went wrong.

At that moment, I received a message from Kim Da-bin.

[All people in the domains with gateways have been evacuated.]

Gateways.

It was a function that appeared when the Absolute Being's Gate reached level 4, allowing those who had acquired citizenship, as well as those with temporary permits, to use it.

Although it took nearly a month to construct and only 10 could be built, they were highly effective.

The 10 gateways were all interconnected, allowing people to move to any of them.

That meant that no matter which gate you took, you could reach the gate in Busan.

For efficiency, I had built them only in the Marquess's domains, but because many citizens lived there, it naturally took a long time to evacuate.

[Good work.]

Fortunately, except for the gateway in Busan, all nine others were built in domains outside the area.

It was a choice made purely for efficiency, but now it was becoming a lifeline to save as many people as possible.

‘The problem is the small domains without gateways.’

Those with citizenship were fine.

Whether they were in Dongdaemun or Namdaemun, they could use the gateways to move.

However, people who lived in domains with temporary citizenship had no way to be saved.

Naturally, those with temporary citizenship were feeling deep anxiety.

As proof, incidents and accidents were occurring in most of the domains.

“Move out of the way! Why are they the only ones being taken? Are we not human beings too?!”

“No! If you don’t have citizenship, you can’t use the gates!”

“Then what about us?! Are you telling us to die like this?!”

Watching the crowds trying to escape through the gates I summoned, Dongdaemun and Namdaemun, those without citizenship began to protest.

At least here, they were civilized.

In other places, many had been swearing at or even assaulting the people controlling the situation.

However.

‘They’re no match.’

In this world, having citizenship made a huge difference.
