## Novel Chapter 13

Kim Woo-Joong is first mentioned at Seo Jun-Ho's press conference by a reporter.

## Novel Chapter 26

We learn he's chasing Kal Signer since a few months ago.

## Novel Chapters 91-96

Kim Woo-Joong tracked Kal Signer for many months thanks to the Trace Incense, an Unique-grade item that could let someone find the target it was attached to no matter how far they went. After the scent disappeared, he finally understood the fiend came down to Earth and followed him.

The first time he saw Seo Jun-Ho, he thought the later was Kal Signer with an other appearance thanks to a disguise or an artifact. It was because Seo Jun-Ho was standing where the scents of the Trace Insense and the stench of fiends came from, holding Final Horizon in his hand.

After the misunderstanding ended thanks to Shim Deok-Gu's call, Kim Woo-Joong bowed and apologized to Seo Jun-Ho. He even use a drop of elixir to take responsibility of the cut he made on Seo Jun-Ho. He then made a quick search about Seo Jun-Ho on his Vita and was impressed.

He became really curious about that level 30 Player who killed the Demon Bow, cleared all the unclear gates of Korea as well as a one star-gate, and beat his and Specter's record in the Cave of Trials. His curiosity made him accept a deal with Seo Jun-Ho to know how the latter beat Kal Signer who was dozens of levels higher than him.

In exchange of reveling his Frost Skill, Seo Jun-Ho wanted him to do three things. The first one is to claim responsibility for killing Kal Signer. The second one is to keep secret his ability. And the last one is to help him one time when he asks him. Kim Woo-Joong agreed with two conditions. He won't let Seo Jun-Ho go if he killed Kal Signer with an immoral power and he won't do anything unethical when the latter asks him for help.

When Son Char-Won, his childhood friend and boss, asked him why he didn't bring Final Horizon, the reason why he chased Kal Signer for so many months, he kept his promise and didn't tell the truth. He only said he got something more valuable than Final Horizon, the future, while smiling at the thought of Seo Jun-Ho.

## Novel Chapters 156-165

Kim Woo-Joong received a request from his friends, the White Anvil Dwarves Tribe, to get rid of the Frost Witch who had taken residence in their future new home. The problem was he doesn't have any cold resistance so he couldn't get close to the monster. He could have destroyed her along with the canyon but it would damage the dwarves home at the same time. Thus, he asked Seo Jun-Ho who has the Frost Skill and Cold Resistance for help. After the later defeated the Ice Witch, Kim Woo-Joong adviced him to take Final Horizon to Duke Schubert and unlock the Matching Bulletin Board. At the end, Kim Woo-Joong asked Seo Jun-Ho if he could speak casually to him the next time they meet, since they're not that many years apart.

## Novel Chapters 228-245

Kim Woo-Joong admitted to his childhood friend that Seo Jun-Ho was the Player he asked for help for the dwarves case.

Silent Moon, as well as all the big guilds, received an S-grade commission from the imperial family of the Ruben Empire: filling the crack that appeared in Blackfield. When the representative of the Empire said they can bring anyone who can help with the commission, Kim Woo-Joong instantly thought of Seo Jun-Ho and sent him a message but didn't get a reply. Instead, an auction with the Big 6 to hire Seo Jun-Ho was held by the Korean Player Association and won by the Hallem Guild. If they didn't have bet an astronomical amount of money, Silent Moon would have won.

When Milphage tried to attack Seo Jun-Ho to see if Specter would show himself to protect him, Kim Woo-Joong, who was at the other side of the room, put his sword at the Hallem's Guild Master's neck. He then withdrew his sword with a cold warning and return to were Silent Moon's members were.

William, the Imperial Knight Commander, divided the six Guilds into three groups. Silent Moon was with Silver Constellation.

When Seo Jun-Ho's group (composed by the Hallem and Goblin Guilds) arrived to the Magic Tower where the beehive was, the other four Guilds were already fighting. Kim Woo-Joong was on the right side along with Silent Moon, Silver Constellation and the fourth Heaven Wei Chun-Hak of the Celestial Dragon Guild.

When Kim Woo-Joong heard Janabi's (the second floor final boss) powerful cry, he knew he must go help Seo Jun-Ho. He didn't know what to do because his path was blocked by numerous bees but when he saw the shadow element, he felt rassured. He believed in Specter.

After all the bees were killed, Kim Woo-Joong, along with the other two Heavens (Shin Sung-Hyun and Wei Chun-Hak) investigated the roof where the battle against Janabi was held. When a member of Goblin told the three the news that Seo Jun-Ho left his hospital bed even if he was still heavily injured, Kim Woo-Joong wasn't worried because he knew the latter is strong aand must had a plan.

## Novel Chapter 253

We learn that Kim Woo-Joong tried the Thunder God's trial to become his disciple but failed. He managed to cross 58 meters out of the hundred needed to pass.

## Novel Chapters 266-279

The Big 6 and the Korean Players Association created fake news about the enmities between the Guilds to be the first to beat the Floor Master so they can deceive the Heavenly Demon. Kim Woo-Joong was part of those who came to kill him and was the one who did the final blow.

Kim Woo-Joong took an elixir out of his Inventory with the intent to heal Specter with it but in the end didn't use it to protect the hero's hidden identity. He restrained Milphage with his sword when the latter tried to peek at Specter's face. He then asked the Guild Master of Silver Constellation for a favor to heal Specter.

Kim Woo-Joong, along with Shin Sung-Hyun and Milphage, had a hint Seo Jun-Ho is Specter because of the techniques that killed Janabi and hurt the Heavenly Demon's arm were the same combination of ice and shadow. Their doubt was erased when Seo Jun-Ho was seen in the street with Frost while Specter was supposed to be in the hospital for a year.

## Novel Chapter 292

Kim Woo-Joong defeated the 3rd Floor Boss, the Phanactos, with his Guild and decided to take a 4-week break to recuperate from his injuries.

## Novel Chapters 310-311

Seo Jun-Ho visited Kim Woo-Joon at the hospital. When the former came in the room, the latter was slicing an apple for himself. Seo Jun-Ho decided to slice it for him and cutted the apple into different animal shapes without thinking about it. He carved out a rabbit, butterfly, swan, tiger, and even a dragon.

The two chatted for longer than they thought about hunting and swordplay. Kim Woo-Joong even told Seo Jun-Ho the story about how he beat Phanactos. When Son Chae-Won came, he was reluctant to let Seo Jun-Ho go.

Once Seo Jun-Ho was gone, Son Chae-Won asked him about what does he like about the former, weither it was his past or his future. Kim Woo-Joong replied "Who knows." then added "... The present is the most important."
