Chapter 181 – How to Become an Alchemist
That moment when I was about to say the words of refusal due to such anger. She feels her intense headache coming at the suggestion of her voodoo doll.
“Kuhhh…!”
“What’s the matter?”
“Ah… Nothing… Hehe…!”
‘Is the reaction the same as the last time the suggestion came? Perhaps a hint…?’
The suggestion might have disappeared as the primary situation was over, but Seong-il is still surprised that the suggestion is activated. In the meantime, Vivian’s headache has subsided and Vivian begins to struggle to talk to him.
“Ha… Ok. I’ll accept your terms.”
‘Done!!’
That’s how Vivian became Seongil and Elisha’s subordinate. Seong-il completes the studio as he initially envisioned.
Seong-il made me feel great. He pats her on the back of Vivien and tells her to speak.
“Don’t be too depressed. If you succeed in steadily growing your business, I’ll set you up for your own workshop, making you independent in the future.”
“Really?!”
“Uh, it’s possible to attract investment funds like this…”
“!!”
The amount of investment in a holy day beyond imagination. Vivian’s expression widened in an instant at Seong-il’s investment plan, and Seong-il smiled bitterly when he saw her.
‘Since I used a whip, I gave you a carrot book, but it works much better than I thought. Come to think of it, he’s also quite ambitious.’
Taking out her carrot book, Seong-il naturally led Bibeep Ahn into her own bedroom, where she and her flesh intermingled.
“I’m back… Huh?”
Erica is embarrassed to see Vivien and Seong-il, who seem to have returned to the studio after class, and Seong-il are mixing their flesh together. Her holy days beckon toward her.
“I’m here?”
“…Yeah. Why is he here again?”
“I’ll explain in a bit. Come now!”
Erisha came to the bed at the command of Holy Day. After her sexual intercourse drags her into her bed and lays her on her bed, they begin a threesome.
“Hey… Wait, I haven’t washed yet!!”
“Noisy!! Vivian, take off your boss’s clothes!!”
“Yes!!”
Erica started having sex in broad daylight without knowing why. She was freed from the absurd situation after almost two hours.
“…Is Vivian re-employing at your studio as a condition of providing potion ingredients? Is it a bonus to be your woman during that time?”
“That’s right! To be precise, absolute obedience to you is also a condition.”
“Hmm…”
Erica, who makes a strange expression on the condition that she is not bad for herself. It sounded nice to her that she could usually make Vivian, whom she had a bad feeling for, a subordinate.
“…But will he listen?
“I’ll be fine. Don’t worry.”
“!!”
Erica is surprised by Vivian’s unexpectedly compliant answer. While patting the backs of such girls, her holy days offer something.
“Let’s go! The problem seems to be solved, so can you sign this one time?”
“…What’s this?”
Erica is puzzled by Seong-il’s sudden behavior of handing out documents. Towards her like that, her seongil continues her words as if it’s not a big deal.
“No big deal. No legal obligations. Just my taste? I just want you to sign ‘be my follower.'”
“What kind of bullshit is this…?”
“Just write it.”
“Haa… You’re really weird.”
He said so, but Erica obediently signed the paper. However, nothing in particular happens.
‘Hmm… Do you have to say it verbally to be registered as a follower…?’
“Since you’ve already signed, can you read it for me?”
“What do you read!! The contents just say, ‘I will become a follower of Seong-il!’ There’s only one!! Eh…!!”
‘Oh!! Come!! Come!!’
Erica’s status as perhaps her own follower is becoming her enrolment. As she stands there blankly, Vivian frowns and asks her questions.
“What is that attitude? It’s not like Seongil-nim is making unreasonable demands.”
‘…He swore that he would obey just a moment ago, but he’s immediately sarcastic.’
While Seong-il is taken aback by Vivian’s absurd attitude change, Vivian casually signs and reads the contract.
“Now! Like me, obey like this! Write it without hesitation!! Then read it…! ‘I will become a follower of Seongil!’ You see! Huh?!”
‘As expected, Vivien must have been included in my follower list because of the previous contract.’
They stood in the workshop for a long time in a daze. Then, Erisha, who fell silent first, struggles to open her mouth.
“…This world is fake? A game?”
“Oh my god…”
Eventually, following Erica, Vivian spoke in a long silence. She, too, blankly looks at her holy day with a lingering expression on her face, as if her shock doesn’t go away easily.
Seong-il smiles broadly at them and continues his conversation.
“Congratulations on finding out the truth.”
“Under…”
Erisha, who was blankly looking at her Holy Day. She sighs lightly after a while, and after patting her shoulder lightly, she sits down on the sofa.
“Amazing…”
“Now! So please take good care of me from now on. Also, please continue to make potions for assistance!”
“Hmm…”
The two women are still sitting in a daze, as if the afterglow of shock from the truth has not gone away. Seong-il tries to return to reality by leaving such women behind.
‘It’ll be okay after a day or two.’
Seong-il, who has built a lot of work in the world of alchemy, naturally starts preparing for tomorrow’s school class.
“Kkeuh~! Do I have to use the bankruptcy certificate after a long time? It’s like the damn weapon registration law…”
Laws of countries that force psychics to use weapons or to register weapons.
When psychics carry weapons and terrorize society, they can cause serious problems, so the state uses firearms, even simple cold weapons, under strict management.
“It’s like a beggar law…”
Because of this, Seong-il thought that using the ‘cursed sword’ would be a headache. He grumbles and recharges the cursed sword with magic power, then puts the sword back into the inventory.
‘Hmm… Shall I play tricks on Lee Ah-hyun today?’
Seong-il was messing around with a voodoo doll while having dark thoughts. However, he shook his head and put the voodoo doll back.
‘No…Not yet. In a situation where I don’t know much about Lee Ah-hyun yet, it could be a headache if I touch her.’
‘Rather, it would be right for her to acquire dungeon cores from Ahyeon Lee’s team, and after she figured out her tendencies and personality, she would do tricks.’
Seong-il decided to approach Lee Ah-hyun very carefully because it was not a game world, but a real life relationship. He lies down on the bed and goes to sleep, looking forward to the match tomorrow.
“Huh…”
Seong-il wakes up from his room after a long time and wakes up from the bed with grim eyes.
After roughly eating a meal with a 3-minute cookout, he goes to school after washing up.
‘Classes are still filthy boring…’
It’s been a long time since I’ve been taking classes and killing time. A man approaches him.
“Hello Han Seong-il?”
“…Huh?”
Seong-il is puzzled by the unfamiliar voice and looks in that direction. Then a handsome looking man appears.
‘Choi Hyun-woo…?’
At the appearance of the best freshman prospect standing shoulder to shoulder with Lee Ah-hyun, Seong-il greets him with a puzzled look.
“Hi?”
To Seong-il, Choi Hyeon-woo responds with a smile on his handsome face.
“Yeah, are you busy right now?”
“No? This is the last class for today, so…”
“Oh, that’s great! Then, I’m sorry, could I talk to you for a minute?”
“So what. What is it?”
“Um… Let’s talk about it here… Let’s go get some coffee.”
“Well… Nothing difficult.”
So Seong-il follows Hyeon-woo Choi to another place.
‘Where are you going…?’
Seong-il is puzzled by Choi Hyeon-wu, who takes a drink and moves to a far corner of the school. Around the time he was about to ask where he was going. Choi Hyeon-woo stops at a place with a smile and starts asking questions to Seong-il.
“Here, Seong-il.”
“…?”
“What’s your relationship with Lee Ah-hyun?”
‘Ugh… I did something, but it was as expected.’
Everyone in the know knew that the best playboy in the department was openly targeting Lee Ah-hyun, so Seong-il laughed and answered him.
“Relationship…? Just a party member of the dungeon exploration team, isn’t that all?”
“Oh yeah?”
“Yes. It’s just a business relationship.”
“Hmm…”
At Seong-il’s words, Choi Hyeon-woo rests his chin on one hand and thinks about something before replying to Seong-il.
“If that’s the case, don’t you want to transfer that party member’s seat to me?”
“…What?”
Choi Hyeon-woo speaks to Seong-il with his signature confident and arrogant expression.
“To be honest, you’ve only just awakened your fighting ability. Wouldn’t a teammate with my level of ability be suitable for a high-class person like Lee Ah-hyun?”
‘Go after the crazy bastard…’
Seong-Il is offended by Choi Hyeon-Woo’s arrogant behavior, who speaks arrogantly without considering the listener’s feelings. However, he answers as obliquely as possible in order not to lose with Choi Hyeon-woo and Chuck ‘for now’.
“I’m just a member of the team, not the team leader…? If that’s what you think, why don’t you tell Lee Ah-hyun directly?”
“Oh, I’ve said it. But he said it’s difficult because you really want to be with him.”
Seong-il understood the situation at Choi Hyeon-woo’s words. He thinks with an annoyed expression.
‘Ehh… At first glance, Choi Hyun-woo keeps annoying me, so I tried to get out of the situation by making excuses for being caught in an overlapping position with him…’
“Seong-il?”
When Seong-il doesn’t say anything with a very annoying and tired expression on his face, Choi Hyun-woo calls Seong-il and demands an answer.
“Ah, sorry. I’m a bit absurd.”
“Huh?”
Choi Hyeon-woo glared at his holy day as if he were talking about something. Seong-il begins to explain to him.
“Well, I don’t know what you heard from Ahyeon, but I never said that. So if you want to join her team, I’d like you to ask her directly.”
“Hmm…”
Choi Hyeon-woo glares at Seong-il with strange eyes. Seong-il puts an annoyed expression on his face.
“Haa… It’s true. If you don’t believe me, ask Ahyeon directly. Don’t involve me in your affairs.”
At Seong-il’s words, which seem sincere in their own way, Choi Hyeon-woo nods his head and replies.
“Okay, I’ll believe it. Then go.”
‘Then why don’t you go? This bastard is talking…’
