Chapter 80 – Chapter 80
Actually, after meeting Shin Ha-neul today, I was going to call our fledgling teammates and talk.
I bought dinner and tried to confess that I had quit the company.
And I meant to implicitly ask if you would like to come to the company I will create in the future.
But I hope things will go like this.
The kids can meet tomorrow or next week, so it doesn’t matter.
However, the iron horns were also thin.
First of all, can I just stay still when I get into a fight?
So I came all the way here.
Were you conceited because you defeated Kim Jae-seok so easily?
Or did you overthink this opportunity as a golden opportunity to extort money to start a company?
Because today is Saturday, you might have thought that there wouldn’t be many strong players at Diamond Headquarters.
I had too much confidence in my abilities.
It would have been enough to finish today’s work in moderation at a cafe.
But what can I do?
I stepped into their headquarters and things have already happened.
Whatever the goal is, you should definitely achieve it.
The battle ends here.
Fighting more is risky.
For my own safety, the energy limit I always thought I would keep was 25%.
It’s simple, since there’s only 27 percent left.
What’s more consuming here is that there is an uneasy part to activate the auto shield that will protect my life in case of emergency.
The enemies in front of you are humans.
If the monster was the opponent, there would be no other way than fighting, but now it’s different.
It is possible to escape the crisis without having to use the remaining power to the bottom.
Of course, while earning the money I was aiming for.
“With that skill, you’re a freshman…”
“Be careful. If you touch that guy’s hand, his magic will disappear.”
“Worry about it. No matter how fast he is, he will become food for the sword the moment he comes within my range.”
They are veterans
Of course, the possessed magic attribute is also of a high standard.
Until just now, I was completely unaware of my abilities, so the surprise magic removal worked.
It won’t be as simple as before, as long as you know that magic disappears when I touch it.
I still had an arrogant expression on my face and opened my mouth.
As if I’m in charge of everything.
“Now, let’s finish here. You seem to have noticed already, but… There’s no point in attacking me more, right? Or are you planning on attacking everyone until all their magical powers are gone?”
“This bastard.”
“Stay still. He’s right. And you said it too. He’s someone you can talk to.”
“But that guy is your mana…”
“Kang Jeong-hyuk!”
“Yes.”
“Magic power… Can I get it back?”
“Of course.”
He smiled wide enough to show his teeth.
Hey. Actually. I have a skill I’d like to know more about.
I might be able to enhance your magical powers even more than what you originally possessed?
But this is a bit expensive.
How can I get this word out?
“Okay. Let’s hear the story.”
“No.”
“What? Didn’t you ask to solve it through conversation first?”
“Sure. I did. But before that, there must be work left to be done there first?”
“…!?”
“Do you think I came here on purpose to disenchant you? No. I had no intention of coming here, and I had absolutely no intention of getting involved with you. But you first grabbed me and dragged me by force. Even using my ex-girlfriend.”
Actually, it’s as if I came here on my own, but I don’t have to say that.
It’s true that they tried to drag me by force.
“…”
“If you want to talk to me, apologize first. I’m looking forward to it. I hope you’ll be grateful that I didn’t wipe out all the Awoken’s mana in this building.”
The guys checking each other’s faces alternately with expressions of great displeasure.
But the answer has already been decided.
I moved my body slowly, waiting for them to apologize.
I moved to the seat next to Hong Eun-young, being wary of an additional ambush.
He dragged the sofa back and sat down with her legs crossed.
Leaning back on the backrest, she placed a cigarette in her mouth.
This building will also be completely non-smoking.
What is it?
The initiative is already in my hands.
They didn’t say anything as if they were thrilled with my natural behavior.
I deliberately blew smoke towards where they were standing.
In fact, my heart is beating so fast.
If the battle breaks out again, there will be no such disappointment.
However, if I go strong like this, I can make people mistakenly believe that I have the perfect chance to win.
Because I showed my skills enough.
There’s no way they know that my ability will end when I run out of energy.
“I… I would like to apologize as the representative. I just wanted to meet Min Hyuk Joo’s face. Even a guy like that is a person from our side.”
The man holding the spear bowed his head first.
Then, except Lee Dae-man, the other two followed suit and bent down.
“So what did I say? A guy like Min Hyuk-ju from the beginning didn’t fit in with our guild…”
“I’m sorry. You should apologize too. You were the one who swung your fist first.”
“Kuh… Okay, brother. I’m sorry! You said I was a lifesaver? Let’s fight with that.”
“Pufu… Well, I’m not the type of person who likes to be so formal… Sit down first.”
Everyone took a seat and sat down.
Hong Eun-young stands next to me without saying a word, and the guys who attacked me at the cafe are standing in the back and waiting.
From now on, this is the main point.
“I’ll accept your apology, but you’ll have to compensate me for wasting the bloody time of a busy person. Even a diamond guild or a large company uses ordinary employees to go fishing. So that’s okay? People who receive a lot of benefits from the government like this. Something like a crime…”
“It’s not difficult. We’ll fully compensate you for that.”
“As you may have heard before, Min Hyuk-joo cheated on me with my ex-girlfriend. I think I can get revenge on him that much. He was the one who attacked me first, not the one I went to and beat.”
“I understand.”
“Perhaps he wanted to find out how he lost his magic, but now that you know, can I just go back?
“…Before you die…You have to return that… Mana…”
“Yes? I don’t think there’s any obligation to do so. I was just defending against the first attack… The thief was injured while climbing over our fence, do I have to treat him?”
“… Are you sure you can return the mana?”
Look at this.
I don’t know who’s begging right now, but I’ve seen it?
I turned my head to the guy standing behind me.
It meant telling me what I saw in the elevator earlier.
“I-I saw it clearly. Returning mana…”
“Is that so? Hmm… OK, tell me what you want.”
After all, I like smart guys because they talk fast.
I hmmm hmmm, cleared my throat, and threw it insinuatingly.
“Um… Let’s do this. What are you doing just receiving it, so why don’t you come and sponsor me. Come to the academy and officially sponsor me, and I’ll give you back one minute of magic per day. The amount will be 1 billion per pair. “I can only give it back to one person a day. Under these conditions, it’s not that difficult, right?”
There was a deep gap between the eyebrows of the person I was talking to.
The other guys sitting next to me gnashed their teeth.
“Additionally, Min Hyuk-ju is not allowed.”
“… Okay. I’ll go to the academy and our Diamond Guild will officially sponsor Kang Jeong-hyeok. I’ll give you whatever amount you want. Instead, if your magic doesn’t return…”
“Don’t worry about that. Could it be that I’m going to scam a big company?”
“Then I’ll see you at the academy on Monday.”
Aigo thank you
There were times when I showed an ugly expression without even realizing it.
I hear the sound of her saliva going down the throat of Hong Eun-young, who is sitting next to her.
I had a windfall. I had a windfall.
I never thought billions of won would roll in so easily.
Do you think the speed of setting up my company will be faster than I thought?
The money has come in. Now is it time to gather talented people?
But again, the fact that I live in the academy.
I can’t stand the bursting smile, but yeah.
“Then may I go back?”
“Before that… I have a question about you.”
“You tell me.”
“How did you get that ability?”
Could you tell me that?
I didn’t know that listening to this question would be the point where I gained my ability and passed more than a month.
I don’t know if it’s because our fledgling guys are innocent(?).
“I don’t know. Just like you all, I just woke up one day.”
If there is a special way, can I let you know?
Well, the person who asked didn’t expect me to be honest.
Let’s go out good
There’s nothing good about pretending to be with a big company.
Besides, you are a sponsor company that will support me in the future.
I checked the location of the surveillance cameras installed around me.
I’m sure you will slowly look back on what happened today and study me.
Maybe after understanding me perfectly, he might come to revenge in earnest.
However, that will come after he regains his lost magic, and he has set aside enough time.
Within that, I intend to raise my magical power to the next level.
“Then let’s go.”
I leisurely walked outside with Hong Eun-young.
The tense mind continued until the moment I completely exited the building.
“Awesome… You’re doing it.”
“In the end, Mr. Hong Eun-young was of no help. I will take her mana back.”
“Yes? No. Please… I’ll do everything you ask.”
“You must not change your mind.”
“Yes…”
I sat in the seat next to Hong Eun-young’s car and quietly closed my eyes.
I’ll have to meet the kids tomorrow.
“Where can I take you.”
“Do you want to go to the hotel with me alone?”
“…”
“Don’t you like it?”
“No… Good…”
He smiled softly, closing her eyes.
Hong Eun-young’s disgusted expression is visible in her eyes even if she doesn’t bother to turn her head to check.
They say that since we made a lot of money, let’s go eat something delicious, but it’s a misunderstanding and a mess.
That’s how we arrived at a luxury hotel and ate the most expensive dish we’ve ever eaten in our entire lives.
It tasted good because it felt good.
It tasted better when I thought it was someone else’s money.
And I ate one more delicious thing for dessert.
So, I ended up staying at a hotel.
***
“Who is that woman!”
“This is my secretary. Say hello.”
“Oh, hello? Have you guys seen me? I’m an academy instructor… Roundy taught me often.”
“Why is the academy instructor a secretary?”
“Somehow it happened.”
Sunday at 1pm.
I am Kim I-sol and Lee Dong-geul. And he invites Baek Hwa-yeon to have lunch with him.
Why don’t you ask Hong Eun-young to eat separately?
No, she drove, so is it she who brought me?
Well, in any case, I am the only man with four women.
“I called it this because I have a story to tell. You may already know the round letter.”
“What is it? Why only he knows? And why didn’t Jang Yong call?”
That’s it.
I forgot to contact him too.
But it doesn’t matter.
Since he’s a man, he can’t even raise his mana, so I have no intention of scouting him for my company.
Noona Ji will take care of it on her own.
“I met Dong-geul on Friday. Oh, the story keeps leaking out, so I’ll talk first and ask questions later. Hmmm… I quit that company. This was the last one.”
“What!?”
“Is it really?”
Lee Dong-geul is quietly eating.
However, the two women who first heard this news were different.
Kim I-sol put the spoon down on the table with a thump, and Baek Hwa-yeon, who was usually quiet, was surprised and raised her voice.
“What do you mean all of a sudden! Nonsense! You… Refused to go up to D-class to protect the team!”
“That’s right. If the team leader isn’t there, I…”
“Hey, calm down… I’m not done yet.”
“How can you calm down in this situation! You traitor.”
What?
What did I betray?
I added quickly.
“I’m thinking of starting my own company from now on. I want to scout you there. What do you think?”
