[Available Points: 16,575]
I checked the points I had accumulated.
16,575 points.
It was an amount of points that made my chest swell with pride.
And I decided to use the points I had accumulated so far. I had already decided where to use the points.
[Shadow Heaven Style Lv.13
You can use Shadow Heaven Style.]
[Would you like to use 2,000 points to increase the level of Shadow Heaven Style Lv.13?]
I learned the ultimate technique of the Shadow Heaven Style from Jin Se-young this afternoon. To be honest, I didn’t understand it at all. Jin Se-young seemed to think I would learn it quickly, but my opinion was different. I know my own talents.
‘I probably won’t make any progress even if I stick with it for a whole month? Maybe I won’t be able to use it even after a year.’
I had no intention of wasting time on the ultimate technique of the Shadow Heaven Style.
There was no reason to take a long detour when there was a shorter path available.
And I shouldn’t be mistaken.
The source of the Shadow Heaven Style I learned is the Yuhee Life app.
Now, trying to learn the ultimate technique of the Shadow Heaven Style with my own skills is just ridiculous arrogance.
‘I’ll raise the level of the Shadow Heaven Style. This is my ability, and this is my way.’
[Would you like to use 3,000 points to increase the level of Shadow Heaven Style Lv.14?]
I continued to raise the level. There were still points left.
[Would you like to use 3,500 points to increase the level of Shadow Heaven Style Lv.15?]
[Would you like to use 5,000 points to increase the level of Shadow Heaven Style Lv.16?]
[The trait Shadow Heaven Style has reached Lv. Master.]
[Shadow Heaven Style Lv. Master
You can use Shadow Heaven Style.]
Level 17 was the end of the Shadow Heaven Style.
I closed my eyes tightly. The information of the Shadow Heaven Style entered me. The essence of the Shadow Heaven Style permeated every single cell.
I naturally learned the 17 ultimate techniques of the Shadow Heaven Style. I also easily learned the lost ultimate technique that Jin Se-young had mentioned. Among the 17 ultimate techniques, there was also the Scattered Lightning (散雷) that Jin Se-young had created. Moreover, it was much more complete than what Jin Se-young had used.
After finishing organizing my thoughts to some extent, I opened my eyes and spread my palm.
A dark aura flowed out of my palm.
It was the Dark Shadow (暗影) of the Shadow Heaven Style. By mastering the Shadow Heaven Style, I was able to use the Dark Shadow like Yuria. But I wasn’t happy at all.
Crackle. Crack.
Lightning appeared above the dark aura. The lightning repelled the dark shadow.
‘Combining lightning and dark shadow like Yuria… it’s not a technique of the Shadow Heaven Style itself… it’s a kind of different realm.’
By mastering the Shadow Heaven Style, I realized how monstrous Yuria’s talent was.
I shook my hand in the air. The dark shadow fell off, and the lightning rotated on my palm.
‘Dark shadow doesn’t suit me, who has the lightning attribute.’
If the concentration required to use lightning is 1, then in the case of dark shadow, it is at least 5. I cleanly gave up on the dark shadow.

‘As expected, a man should have high vitality.’
After checking my vitality stat and smiling contentedly, I felt a tingling sensation in my body. The ultimate techniques of the Shadow Heaven Style that I had learned this time. I wanted to try them all out.
‘It’s no fun using them in the training grounds. Should I go to a suitable dungeon?’
•••
Clang, clang, clang.
I was impressed by the speed at which the experts were renovating the Shadow Heaven Sword Hall. Skilled in their field, they were so outstanding that they could be called artisans.
‘They’re really going to finish renovating the training grounds of the Shadow Heaven Sword Hall in a week.’
I felt a familiar presence behind me. Jin Se-young was approaching.
“Yu-jin, you have a visitor.”
“A visitor?”
The owner of the Shadow Heaven Sword Hall was Jin Se-young, not me. Receiving guests was her job.
“They specifically called your name. It’s a visitor who came to see you.”
Jin Se-young’s voice was somewhat stiff.
I checked my smartphone. There were no messages. If they came to see me, they should have contacted me in advance. That’s basic manners.
‘They didn’t come to my house, but to the Shadow Heaven Sword Hall…’
It meant that the other party had already figured out my movements. I sighed. I wasn’t in a good mood.
“Should I chase them away?”
“No, sis. They’ve come this far, so we should find out who they are. That visitor is on the first floor now, right?”
“Yeah. I told them to wait on the first floor for now.”
“Are they a hunter?”
“That’s… a bit ambiguous. They’re definitely an Awakened, but they don’t have the unique feeling of a hunter.”
Just because someone awakened their abilities didn’t mean they had to become a hunter. However, since becoming a hunter was an easy way to gain fame and money, most Awakened people chose to become hunters.
“It’s strange, but I’ll find out when I meet them.”
“Be careful. Even if they’re not a hunter, they’re definitely not an easy person.”
Leaving Jin Se-young’s worries behind, I headed to the first floor. Since she said that so seriously, they definitely wouldn’t be an ordinary person.
I entered the reception room on the first floor. In the center of the neat room, a man in a black suit sitting on the sofa slowly stood up.
I tensed up without realizing it. Through my experiences in the Yuhee world, I knew instinctively. This man was someone who stood above others. He had the aura of a noble or a politician.
“Hello, Mr. Sung Yu-jin. I apologize for coming here so abruptly. I have my own reasons…”
He reached into his pocket. I tensed up, thinking he was going to pull out a weapon, but what he held in his hand was a business card that exuded luxury.
“I would appreciate it if you didn’t reveal my identity to the woman who owns this building. I hate making a fuss. If a reporter gets a whiff of this… ugh. It’s terrible just imagining it.”
“What, are you some kind of celebrity?”
“I’m not a celebrity, but there are quite a few people who are watching me. It’s been a headache lately.”
I flipped over the business card to check his identity.
President of Sejin Construction. Ha Jun-soo.
I unconsciously tried to raise my head, but I stopped myself. It was because the experts renovating the Shadow Heaven Sword Hall were from Sejin Construction.
Sejin Construction was the best construction company in South Korea, recognized by everyone.
‘…Ha Jun-soo is not just his title. He’s a member of the Sejin Group’s owner family. The eldest grandson of the Sejin Group’s chairman, and the man closest to being the group’s successor.’
I had seen him on the news quite a bit, but I wasn’t interested in men’s faces, so I didn’t recognize him right away.
I sat on the sofa opposite him.
‘He came to see me… it must be because of his younger sister, Ha Seung-hee. Did he notice the relationship between Ha Seung-hee and me and come to force me into marriage? Seung-hee’s pussy and asshole are delicious, but… I’m not seriously considering marriage.’
Silence fell between Ha Jun-soo and me.
Ha Jun-soo seemed to want me to speak first, but in times like this, it was necessary to keep my mouth shut and set the mood. Just because the other party was a third-generation chaebol didn’t mean I, who didn’t work for Sejin Group, had to bow down.
In the end, it was Ha Jun-soo who spoke first.
“Mr. Sung Yu-jin. I know that you have a close relationship with my younger sister, Seung-hee.”
“Hmm. We do meet once or twice a week… I can’t deny that it’s a close relationship.”
Come to think of it, tomorrow was the day I was supposed to meet Ha Seung-hee. I was reminded of Ha Seung-hee’s chewy pussy and asshole.
“You admit it so easily… that’s unexpected.”
“I’m a man who does what he says. I can admit something like this any number of times.”
“I like that we’re getting straight to the point. I’ll ask you directly. I’d like you to tell me everything about what’s going on between Seung-hee and you.”
I frowned without realizing it and looked at Ha Jun-soo. Ha Jun-soo smiled as if he had expected my reaction, then placed a USB on the table.
“I don’t intend to ask you to tell me for free. Information has its value, and since it’s related to Seung-hee, I’ve prepared a substantial reward. This USB contains a place where I’ve saved my allowance. Even Mr. Sung Yu-jin, the super rookie of the Korean hunter world, will be satisfied with the amount. I guarantee it.”
“Hoo. Do you want to know about what’s going on between me and Seung-hee that badly?”
“Of course. Or do you want something other than money? If there’s anything you want, I’ll prepare it.”
“…Why are you going to such lengths?”
Did he want to know about his younger sister’s sex life that badly? I looked at him with wary eyes. Was a pervert trying to take my woman? No matter who the opponent was, I had no intention of staying still if they were after my woman.
“My grandfather knows what Seung-hee is doing. I’ve asked him several times what Seung-hee is doing, but… he wouldn’t tell me. So, I have to find out on my own.”
“……”
My eyes sank deeply.
‘Seung-hee’s grandfather already knows about my relationship with her? The way things are going is more messed up than a chaebol family in a drama.’
I flicked my finger and pushed the USB. The USB slid off the table and into Ha Jun-soo’s pocket. Ha Jun-soo’s face hardened as he snatched the USB.
“I have a separate appointment with Seung-hee. I don’t think I can tell you about what’s going on between us.”
“…Think about it again. Everything Seung-hee promised, I can provide it all.”
My face contorted at Ha Jun-soo’s words.
Damn it. Was he saying he’d offer me his asshole or something? This was an insult to me. An uncontrollable rage and murderous intent rose up. Ha Jun-soo’s complexion turned pale. His fingertips trembled slightly. But he didn’t run away even while facing my murderous intent head-on.
“…Seung-hee has outstanding talent. My grandfather is also keeping an eye on Seung-hee’s talent and is trying to give her opportunities. However, I am the eldest son of our family. There will be no changes in the Sejin Group. Mr. Sung Yu-jin. I’ll give you one last chance. Become my person. Everything Seung-hee promised, I can give it all.”
“No, you can’t. Even if you give it, I’ll refuse.”
“It seems our conversation ends here. I’ll be going now.”
Ha Jun-soo stood up from his seat.
“It seems Seung-hee has a good person by her side.”
As soon as he left, I immediately picked up my smartphone. Just in case, I checked that there were no eavesdropping devices and called Ha Seung-hee.
“What’s the matter, senior? Our appointment is for tomorrow.”
“Your brother just came by.”
“Huh?”
“He wanted to know about your sex life. He’s a serious pervert. I kept my mouth shut even though he offered me money, so don’t worry. But I’m still a bit uneasy, so it’d be good to have a showdown soon.”
“I don’t know what nonsense you’re talking about, but anyway, my older brother went to see you? He sniffed it out faster than I thought.”
Hearing Ha Seung-hee’s voice suddenly made me horny.
“Seung-hee, should we meet tonight and have a heart-to-heart talk?”
“I have things to do today. Let’s meet tomorrow as planned.”
Click.
The call ended immediately.
