Regress and Eat

No additional [Chain Blade] skill cards have been found since Kim Ji-hoon's training.

Unless a card suddenly appears from the ground, I need an explanation for how I used that skill.

I surrounded myself with lies about unique skills.

Izzie checks again.

“It means that Seo Jin-wook almost got what Kim Ji-hoon is experiencing. ”

Hearing that, the look on the official's face suddenly solidified as he learned the meaning of the situation.

Then Nate's eyes turn fierce as he listens to Hibiki's interpreter, and the shadow shivers slightly. Fortunately, Hibiki stops immediately. Then the shadow stops moving.

All right, let's just keep our hands and feet together and do whatever it takes.

I talk nonsense.

“I didn't know this was such a scary skill. It was triggered regardless of my will, but without a unique skill, it would have been a big deal. ”

Actually, the real Replica doesn't work that way.

But what do they know?

“Ahhhh! Ahhhh! ”

Gim Ji-hoon turns his eyes upside down and spits out his tears and screams with a sigh.

I couldn't even faint.

‘I wanted to kill him here because I felt like it. ’

Even after his rebirth, his beliefs did not change.

If I let the one who's after me go, I'm sure he'll come back angry.

I don't intend to keep her alive, of course, but I postpone that point very little.

I looked down at Kim Ji-hoon, who acted in contempt.

‘Wait a little longer. I'll be there soon. ’

Weeing!

Ji-hoon Kim, who was shining when Izzie tore the scroll, fell asleep.

It was not just sleep magic, but anesthesia that paralyzed the nervous system.

Bleeding of the leg rarely stopped when the salve shaped artifact was applied from the emergency chest.

"You!"

The Nerve Ticket stares.

"Dude, this is so blatant. ’

I urged the official.

He/she does not have scoring authority, instead he/she oversees the overall process.

“Sir, please do as you promised in advance. ”

I interrupted a nerve ticket.

“Wait! You're just going to take that for granted?! ”

He frowns and shouts.

“I know all the reasons why Cheonryong and Grand Croa have a bad relationship, but this time I set a trap to stop Kim Ji-hoon Hunter · ·. ”

I scratched my head and said,

“I told you, my unique skills aren't perfect yet. And · · · a little surprised? ”

“What?"

“If I'm going to side with Grand Croix, I don't think he's going to say what he just said. ”

Then he realizes his mistake and turns red.

In this aspect of the guild that is not good with each other, it was not me who suggested a duel, but Kim Ji-hoon.

He was attacked by Hunters less than half a year after he woke up.

He's the one who tried to set a trap.

‘He aimed blatantly at my neck. Hunter would have noticed if he was a paralyzed government official. If Lee Ji-hoon testifies, Kim Ji-hoon is the disadvantage. ’

Rather than the mistake I made because I was embarrassed by the sword in that direction, I seem surprised at my skills and think I won't be able to hit them forever unless I have this chance.

“This · · · ·! This! ”

Nerve spots don't easily connect with a bunch of twisted faces.

‘Well, Awakening is not an intelligent order. ’

I was in a hurry.

“We need to get Kim Ji-hoon out of the dungeon as soon as possible. Let's wrap it up and get out.”

The official nods.

“As discussed in advance, I will confirm the final rating of the Seo Jin-wook Hunter in SS class. ”

I watched him sign the floating e-documents in a hologram.

That's it! ’

The escalation process is finally over.

*

There was no need to return to the center for the reissue of Hunter's Disease.

The database updates for escalation information were made immediately and the contents of the Hunter's Certificate were automatically changed without the need for a separate reissue.

“Wow! This is amazing! ”

Nate muttered as he saw his Hunter's grades change to S.

You make an elongated call with someone like you can't go back, and then you come back and talk to a government official.

‘Someone might think you're from Grand Croix. ’

The official sighed and said.

“There is no possible reversal of the promotion result. Exercising discretion is what the chancellor has created for the promotion criteria, and it has to be done before the rules can be broken. However, we promise to conduct a separate investigation into any misconduct during the duel. ”

If you read the footage in white, nothing will come out.

It's just that the color and shape of the black that covered my sword perfectly matches that of Kim Ji-hoon.

‘Kim Ji-hoon was turned against me in an unclean way. ’

If Lee Ji-hoon, who looked bad to him, testifies as he saw, it will only be disadvantageous to Kim Ji-hoon.

If word gets out, it'll be two for me.

‘The SS class, like the newly awakened, has broken the Veteran S. ’

He also has unique skills that are not of any origin and is also with talents from abroad.

‘This is how you sharpen the board. ’

As soon as Nate and Hibiki are about to disappear, Izzie suddenly approaches.

“Congratulations on Korea's first SS-rank. Starting today, the country will turn upside down. ”

I was greeted boldly.

“Thank you."

“Can I talk to you for a second? I won't take too long. ”

Kim Ji-hoon was transported in an ambulance, and the tickets disappeared together as if they were servants of some kind.

We decided to return to our separate vehicles instead of taking the car prepared by the government official, leaving only three promotions and Eizu.

Considering her favorable attitude, I decided to hear it first.

“I don't have time to go anywhere and sit down. ”

“It's enough to stand around and talk. First, a business card. ”

I got her card.

Her name and contact information are written on the background decorated by the emblem of the 'Golden Circle’ guild.

Golden Circle is the next tier of four guilds. Keep a reasonable distance from all four guilds. Classified as Neutral Position. ’

The Heavenly Dragon, which is now a whirling but considered Korea's best guild for a long time.

Grand Croix, Blind Sword, and Gate Keepers are considered to be a threat to the position of the Celestial Dragons at scale or power. The Gate Keepers walk their own routes, but the other three guilds join forces with the military guilds to fight dirty.

‘Just like Grand Croix and the guild of the Nerve Ticket were on the same boat. Brainy and brawling for the future in short time? · · Pathetic · · I need to clear this floor as soon as possible. ’

Thinking about it, I told her.

“I don't have a business card yet · ·. ”

“It's okay. I just want to ask you one question. ”

She promptly asked the question.

“Moving away from the Heavenly Dragon with those mercenaries, I was wondering if I could build a new guild. Is that it?"

I shook my head.

“That's not it. ”

My path will be known to everyone in the future.

Lee shrugs.

“Yeah? Too bad. I think the rumors of internal affairs have been exaggerated. ”

It surrounds the conflict with Seo Kyu-chul and the rumors about my escape.

Rumor has it I might be leaving the Celestial Dragons altogether.

'With that possibility in mind, you want to make a separate strap for me.'

If I make a guild out of a minority, as she predicted, I'll often be able to work with a large guild like Golden Circle.

“This floor rumor is fairly accurate, but the odds of it having anything to do with you are absurd. Oh, except for one. You're a genius at rewriting Korean hunter history. ”

She had a knack of speaking confidently in front of her with compliments that made the day hot for the listener.

“Are there a lot of jealous people? Was there a force inside? Why are you up to this ridiculous myth about being sick? ”

It's a rumor about mental illness.

You seem genuinely curious, but I don't answer long, I just make a bitter smile.

She shrugs.

“Well, there must be something I don't know. Anyway, call me if you change your mind. You know why I'm doing this, right? To put it bluntly, it means I want to get along. ”

“I understand.”

“Don't worry, if I ask for an interview because of Kim Ji-hoon from the Constitution Department, I'll make a statement exactly as I saw it. ”

It cools me down before I even ask.

I like it.

“Then · · · ·. ”

I waved my hands and told her I was going away.

“Oh, wait a minute. ”

“Hmm?"

“Can I ask you one question? ”

“Whatever.”

“Do you know anyone in the Gate Keepers' Guild? ”

I blink as if to ask why.

“The gatekeepers? Of course they do. We're not the fourth guild. So, why? ”

“Can you introduce me? I need a dungeon to play with. But it's not an official request. ”

“A route that can be accessed with care so that it doesn't leak to the press or other guild ears? ”

I knew it. I knew it.

“Yes.”

Izzie looks around, Nate and Hibiki, as if she were interesting.

She immediately realized my intentions.

“Okay, let me introduce you. ”

*

Kim stopped at a refugee sanctuary in the vicinity of Gyeonggi-do.

Many people who had not returned to their previous lives after losing their homes and jobs because of the heavy debacles and the subsequent dungeon brakes.

The place he visited was one of the residential areas for such people.

‘Here.’

Kim walked relentlessly, looking at the map that was floated to the terminal.

Then, I stood in front of a prefabricated building and pressed the bell.

“I'm the one I promised to see today. ”

The door opens, and a pleasant smell pierces through the cracks.

A middle-aged man with thin eyes and a hot beard is staring at him.

“Yoo Kyung Jae?”

After a moment of hesitation, my mouth opens.

“· · Correct. I really thought you were gonna come here for a prank call. ”

He leadeth Kim's secretary inside with a puzzled face.

After sitting down, Kim stopped and put a copy of the document on the table.

Yoogyeong Jae picked it up with trembling hands.

“Isn't this · · · · some kind of new scam? I don't have the money for a lawyer to review it. ”

Kim said with a serious face.

“Of course, right now we're not driving this kind of thing around in a joke, and we're not cheating. ”

Kyung Jae will look at the first chapter of the document.

It had a big letter at the top that said "Conditional Purchase Agreement."

The man hesitated.

“So · · · Tell me if I understand correctly. ”

“Yes.”

“I know from watching the news that Seouly · · · · Hansul died. But · · No one in your family or cousins is confirmed alive? I think so. He said he lost all of his relatives during the fight. ”

The man speaks as if he doesn't understand.

“But Snow had a share in the Heavenly Dragon Guild · · If she did this, that share would be transferred to the country? ”

“That's right. An heir search is underway, but no one has claimed the right to inherit yet. Over time, the state automatically passes over ownership. ”

“But I don't mix snow and a drop of blood. ”

“That's why we don't want to spare any legal support so that Yoogyeong Jae can be recognized as a 'special speaker’ in court. ”

“· · · · · · I just lived with Snow a few years back? ”

Kim's secretary swallowed the horse.

Yeah, we've only lived together for a few years. in the past tens of years, before the Deputy Chairman of the Korean New Year woke up.

There was very little evidence left to argue that it was a real marriage.

By the way, how the hell did you find this guy? The Guild Master hasn't found the man yet! ”

He explained his misgivings.

“We would like to argue with the court that you were actually married. If you are recognized as a Special Advisor, you may inherit some or all of your shares. Our goal, of course, is to inherit the power of Yoogyeong-Jae. ”

“And the content of the contract is · · · that I sell all of the shares that I will inherit in the future at a fixed price to the 'Company’? ”

“Exactly, but this trade agreement is conditional. Apart from future trading payments, we will pay you in cash the amount stated here upon entering into the contract. ”

After seeing the amount, Yoo Kyung Jae's mouth opened.

My hands trembled even more.

Kim said with his eyes.

“After that, Yoogyeong Jae will continue to support a certain amount of living expenses every month for the rest of his life. ”

“What happens if I · · · don't inherit? ”

“If so, you will still receive no return of the promised amount and continue to be paid for your living expenses. ”

If Jaegyeong Jae actually inherits the inheritance, he will take care of the contracts and living expenses in addition to the purchase price.

Even if he doesn't inherit it, he has nothing to lose since the deposit and the cost of living are in his pocket.

‘It is an offer that cannot be rejected from this person's perspective. ’

In fact, Kim's assistant disagreed with this clause.

It is because if the court rejects the evidence as insufficient, the shares will be lost and Yoogyeong Jae will only have blind money.

However, Seo Jin-wook was too confident.

In fact, he said he didn't even have to look for another salmon in Han Seol.

In Seo Jin-wook's previous life, Kim didn't know until he realized that it took longer, but eventually Seo Kyu-chul found Yoo Kyung Jae and acquired the share of Han Snow who died the same way.

“No, are you sure the court will recognize my right to inheritance? ”

“At this rate, I might not accept it. There's not enough evidence, but what's missing, we'll fill it in. ”

It was an indication that he would tamper with the evidence if necessary.

“You look haunted by a ghost. ”

The man holds the pen in his hand as he decides.

“Yes, I'll sign it. It's a yard with nothing to lose anyway. ”

Kim's secretary, who got his signature, lit up his eyes.

The company that was the other party to this agreement was, of course, Seo Jin-wook's.

‘If this person inherits Han Seol's shares and sells them back to the boss, the game will shake greatly. ’

Kim was not sure whether everything would go as planned.

‘But you're not going to do this without a reason. ’

Kim said as he received the signed contract.

“So, shall we move on? A quiet and relaxing place to rest. ”

Even if Seo Kyu-chul or another guild finds out about this man's existence later, there will be no trace of him at that time.

Preparations to eat the Heavenly Dragon were underway everywhere.
