BJ Archmage - Chapter 133
Chapter 133. < Episode 43. New Partner (1). >
1.
“This concludes the broadcast.”
After that, the broadcasting channel was switched to private, and the viewers who filled the chat window disappeared in an instant.
Only then did Midas make a small ceremony by lightly clenching his fists.
‘As planned.’
Due to this broadcast, Midas aimed for two things.
One is to raise expectations for the next live broadcast.
‘The fighting style of today must have been imprinted in everyone’s mind.’
The other was to imprint BJ Grand Mage’s current fighting style on viewers.
At least, viewers who watched today’s live show and those who listened to the story will strongly remember the powerful magic, including the Inferno magic, that BJ Grand Mage showed.
‘When everyone is expecting the Inferno, if the Thunderbolt drops, the game ends at that moment.’
As Thunderbolt’s debut match, there will be no debut match more intense than that.
‘I think it’s perfect. Advertisers were so thrilled that they gave them additional bonuses.’
As Midas’ heart swelled with anticipation as he recalled such a plan, a person entered the chat window, which was now a private room.
[Wharton logged in.]
‘Boss?’
While Midas, who saw that, was concentrating on the chat room, a chat came up.
– Wharton: I also enjoyed the live today. I always feel it, but it’s great.
Midas was thrilled with that response.
Of course, he didn’t do anything that could have been done by revealing that emotion.
“You don’t have to force praise. It was a live broadcast with nothing to watch. To be honest, broadcasting anything other than the boss monster raid is meaningless.”
‘I have to show a stronger side here.’
My level is not at all like this!
It appeared to be full of distribution.
‘Only those who are full of skills and full of confidence can become top-notch. That’s the professional world.’
Because he knew better than anyone else that the world where humility is not a virtue is the world of professionals.
It was literally.
In the professional world, those with skills had to show confidence and aspirations commensurate with their skills.
That way, those who work with the pro can also plan and prepare accordingly.
Having said that, Midas moved on to the next topic.
“So what happened? Seeing that you are connecting directly, it seems that you have something urgent to say?”
I wouldn’t have logged on just to give a compliment.
– Wharton: You know the recent story about BJ Grand Mage, right?
“A related story?”
Midas briefly thought about that question.
‘Is that what you mean by declaring a solo?’
Midas, who recalled some rumors related to himself, smiled and said.
“Of course I know. I don’t care too much about anything.”
As if waiting for that answer, another question came.
– Wharton: I’m thinking of getting an ad from Blue Bull this time. Is that okay?
“Blue Bull?”
At that question, Midas put on a blank expression for a moment.
‘Blue Bull? Not gamma constraints?’
Of course it was only for a moment.
‘ah!’
Midas could understand the situation right away.
‘You bet hard on Blue Bull’s side!’
Gamma Pharm and Blue Bull have a rivalry. In the midst of this, receiving Blue Bull’s advertisement means that there has been a proposal that is so strong that it ends the connection with Gamma Pharm.
‘It’s too much money to refuse!’
The moment he reached that fact, Midas did not worry.
“Looks like a pretty big bet…. To be honest, I don’t care about the amount. Please handle it in a way that is comfortable for you on the Rising Star channel side.”
‘Of course I have to be loyal to the Big Deal.’
On the contrary, the moment he answered that question, Midas had other concerns.
‘Rather than that, did you create this place to seek my opinion? Did the boss deliberately chat with you to have this discussion?’
Looking at the current situation, even though the Rising Star channel had a good offer, they did not immediately accept it and tried to find out Midas’ opinion. It was a delight for Midas.
Doesn’t that mean you care about yourself?
‘If work is handled like this, problems arise when I’m in a hurry.’
But looking at the organization’s future, it wasn’t a very good picture.
Decisions must be made quickly.
It was the same with baseball games. There was no case where the coach asked each player’s opinion to plan a strategy.
The manager makes a plan and the players execute it.
Such a simple relationship created the highest efficiency.
“You don’t have to bother with my opinion to that point. The reason I signed a contract with the Rising Star Channel is because I have the belief that it will handle such a task better than anyone else.”
– Wharton: You mean you’re delegating full power?
Midas shrugged his shoulders at the question that followed.
“I have already given before, do I have to give again? I’ll give it to you if you need it.”
Midas, who was talking, smiled and a chat came right away.
– Wharton: Yes then I’ll take care of it without disappointing you.
The conversation ended there.
Soon the chat window disappeared and the broadcast ended.
At that moment, Midas smiled.
“Hey, sir, you are a very nice person. You care about me like this. Aren’t you lucky?”
king!
Lucky barked loudly.
“What do you think of Gold?”
“It’s okay, isn’t it your master’s master? He must be very great!”
Midas nodded at Gold’s strong determination.
“Yeah, I can’t disappoint someone so good.”
With those words, Midas looked at the hunting ground.
‘All preparations will be completed within this week.’
2.
The scary thing about God Wars was that no rumors or typhoons lasted long.
It was the same with BJ Grand Mage.
The solo declaration and the live broadcast that started definitely gave a big shock in many ways.
But after that a more violent storm came.
[Explorers Guild Discovers a New Stage! ]
[Abyss Guild Demon Rich’s first raid challenge!]
Among them, even the name of the storm created by the BJ Archmage has faded in front of the storm created by the 10th guild.
Of course, Midas was not disappointed with that fact.
‘This is reality.’
It is not easy to become a star in the sky.
However, even if it became a star, it was not the end.
Among the countless stars in the sky, there was a superstar that caught everyone’s attention at once.
And ordinary stars have lost their presence due to the light of such a superstar.
‘A reality that can never be changed.’
Midas realized that fact when he was a professional baseball player.
In my own standards, I have seen that even star players who are high above the sky bow their heads in front of superstars.
‘Then I have no choice but to adapt to that reality.’
Because he did not go against the fact.
[The Werewolf has been defeated.]
As if climbing the stairs leading to a higher place, he took the steps he could, step by step.
[Werewolf has been killed.]
It was a tedious task.
But Midas was not bored.
Compared to the days when I didn’t even deserve to climb the stairs in the past, this was an indescribably happy event.
“As expected, the game is solo play. Just the japtem price is enough for living expenses!”
Rather, Midas enjoyed this process.
[You have killed Werewolves.]
[You have killed 333 Werewolves. The quest conditions have been achieved.]
In the end, Midas completed the quest.
That was the moment.
Krrr!
“Master, what is coming!”
As if not wanting to give them time to rest, the moment they achieved the quest conditions, they began to notice Midas.
At this moment, Midas also built up his tension.
‘Is it just before the boss?’
According to the quest information, the moment you catch 333 werewolves, the quest will be completed and the avenger will appear.
‘Or a helper?’
It is unclear whether the avenger is a monster or an NPC.
‘Under the circumstances, it’s highly likely that it’s an NPC.’
Of course, considering that the hidden quest reward was the Mastery Skill Book, there was a high possibility that it was an NPC.
There’s no way a monster would come and give you that reward.
Midas’ prediction was immediately met.
Hey!
An arrow whistled and passed lightly over Midas’s head.
The arrow was not meant to hit, but to announce one’s presence.
so much… … .
As the sound of the arrows disappeared, footsteps began to approach from beyond the darkness of the night forest.
“I have no intention of fighting.”
The one who appeared was an elf.
The elf’s appearance was youthful, with patterns drawn in the red blood of animals on top of his black skin.
Is it 13 years old in human terms?
“It’s called Umta.”
Rather than that, the elf NPC Umta, who could be described as a boy, spoke in front of Midas with both hands raised above his head.
“I just need your help.”
The moment he heard that, Midas smiled lightly.
‘It’s an A scenario.’
Midas looked at the quest information and prepared the number of scenarios for various cases.
‘I’m sure he intends to take revenge on me.’
Among them, the content of scenario A was that the NPC who saw Midas’ hunting ability asked him for revenge.
The target of that revenge will, of course, be the boss monster.
It was as expected.
“I saw your skills. That’s why I have a request for you. Please catch the monster that killed my parents.”
The words came out as expected, and in that fact, Midas was more relaxed than ever.
‘Perfect.’
It goes as expected, but if you don’t take your time, that would be strange.
“Why should I do your favor?”
‘This time, I’m the first one, right?’
That’s why Midas showed more vigor than ever.
Seeing him like that, NPC Umta spread two fingers and said,
“Two things.”
“two?”
“One is that you have two guardian badges.”
That was the moment.
NPC Umta pulled something out of his chest and then quietly set it down on the ground.
“And that I can pay the full price.”
At that, Midas lowered his gaze to see him on the floor.
‘It’s a mastery skill book!’
A mastery skill book that raises unique grade skills!
Seeing this, Midas was so happy that the corners of his mouth were tearing in a smile.
However, he endured it with great effort and now said with an arrogant expression that he had surpassed the level of dominance.
“What if I hate you?”
bounced once
“Then you can just take this with you. Instead, you won’t be able to hear me.”
Only then did Midas speak with a sympathetic expression.
“Let’s hear what your request is.”
At those words, the NPC Umta bowed her head deeply and spoke with an expression barely holding back her resentment.
“Please defeat the Dark Wolf.”
[The new quest has been updated in the Main Scenario Quest section.]
Along with that notification, a quest appeared before Midas’ eyes.
[Avenger]
– Quest Grade: Main Scenario
– Quest Level: Level 110 or higher
– Quest Content: Dark Wolf appears on the day the blue moon rises. Only Umta knows its location. Kill the Dark Wolf to avenge him!
– Quest Reward: Unknown
! Quest Reward: Mastery Skill Book (Legendary)
! Upon completing the quest, you can proceed with the quest ‘The Guardian’s Last Legacy’
.
‘Legendary? Is it a mastery skill book?’
Midas’s thinking came to a standstill at the reward he hadn’t even imagined.
“Can you catch it?”
To Midas, the NPC Umta asked another question.
At that moment, Midas approached NPC Umta and hugged him.
“Aigo Umta, how hard have you been? Of course you have to catch it. I will catch and punish this evil wolf that killed Umta’s parents. I’ll chop you up more if needed!”
“Thank you.”
“Thank you, of course. I will definitely catch him and avenge Umta!”
‘Dark Wolf I’ll just give you a slaughter! You’re done!’
It was the moment when Midas made up his sincere resolve more than ever.
3.
Headquarters of the Abyss Guild.
The staff there were relaxed and relaxed.
One of the reasons for that was that Miami Beach was right in front of a great resort.
However, there was a time when the headquarters of the Abyss Guild was more tense than ever.
“How is the raid situation?”
Abyss Guild Group 1 It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the entire Abyss Guild, the day they raid boss monsters.
“Phase 3 in progress without difficulty!”
“How many viewers?”
“Over 501 million people!”
“Everyone get ready!”
On such a day, the Abyss Guild Headquarters was in an emergency state enough to respond even if a war broke out.
It was not an analogy.
“What is the power status?”
“No problem.”
“What about the communication network?”
“Clean.
In case there was a real war, power supply was cut off or something urgent happened, not only its own power generation facility and bypass communication network infrastructure, but also the manpower to deal with it was on standby.
“Report the current situation to the security team.”
“No danger is currently perceived.”
Even a private security team was running in case a competitor interfered with the raid in real life due to power cuts or terrorism.
In particular, today’s raid was more important than ever.
“No one has ever caught a demon lich. If you catch this, it’s the first boss monster kill.”
“If you ruin this, it will be hell for a while.”
A situation in which failure soon leads to disaster.
The tension in such a situation would be indescribable.
Soon they heard the news.
“I did it!”
“Success!”
The news of the success of the raid.
At that fact, all the staff who filled the Abyss Guild started cheering.
At the same time, those who were in the private capsule room began to come out of the capsule one by one.
Merlin was one of them.
Push!
As soon as he came out of the newest and customized capsule, which was incomparable to the one used in the capsule room, a doctor and a nurse on standby clung to him and started examining him.
“Make it with pomegranate juice.”
At the same time, one of the cooks on standby listened to Merlin’s request and started making fresh fruit juice after peeling pomegranates on the spot.
An indescribable treat.
However, considering the value of Merlin’s name, it was an appropriate response.
A huge amount of money came and went depending on his performance, and one word he spit moved a lot of money.
I couldn’t even tell you what the media companies paid to interview him at this moment when the raid was over.
rattle!
The first visitor appeared to Merlin.
However, the person who appeared was not the New York Times reporter as promised in advance.
“Emma.
Emma opened her mouth while Merlin greeted her at the appearance of the manager.
“I have a few words to say before the interview.”
“Is it important?”
“You asked me personally.”
“Oh that.”
A personal favor The moment that word came out, Merlin said to the doctor and cook who were examining his body.
“It’s a private story, so please leave your seat for a moment.”
yes.
They nodded as if it was nothing, and went straight to the door.
rattle!
And the moment Merlin and Emma’s expressions sank coldly at the sound of the door closing.
“BJ Grand Mage’s next advertiser is likely to be Blue Bull.”
Merlin was taken aback by the reaction.
“Blue Bull? Could it be that they secured the Thunderbolt skill card?”
BJ Daemage presented a Thunderbolt skill card for advertising expenses!
Merlin had already heard the news.
“No, there is no way I can save it. It’s something we couldn’t find either. So BJ Grand Mage suggested it.
“Yeah, I didn’t intend to be advertised in the first place.”
I had already figured out the intentions of the BJ master mage who made such a proposal.
“By the way, how do you put advertisements in?”
“Blue Bull presented an attractive card to BJ Archmage.”
“A charming card?”
“The armor of an unknown archmage.”
Upon hearing those words, Merlin let out a long sigh with his eyes closed.
Armor of an unknown great mage.
There was only one sale identified so far as a Legendary-grade item.
“Azmo.”
And Azmo was the owner of that one and only item.
“Even if I told you to sell it, you took out something that wasn’t sold.”
And since it was in his hands, it was an item no one had ever had.
Azmo’s desire for items is indescribable.
By the way, did you take out those things now?
“What kind of deal did you make with Blue Bull?”
“I don’t know. What is clear is that there is a very high possibility that Azmo will deliver the item through Blue Bull and BJ Archmage will receive it. In other words, there is a high possibility that BJ Grand Mage will trade some of the information about the main scenario with Azmo.”
“Or you can stick to it.”
Merlin, who was talking, opened his closed eyes.
“If we stick to Azmo’s side, it becomes difficult for us to touch. Should I take care of it before that?”
“Fortunately, seeing that it ends at this level, it seems that BJ Archmage has no intention of joining Azmo right away.”
They must be trying to raise the ransom by walking a tightrope between them. And if you want to pull it toward us…
Merlin, who had been spitting out words, pointed at the ceiling with his finger and said.
“So from above?”
“Do whatever, that’s an order.”
Merlin nodded in response.
“Okay so what are you going to do?”
“I will buy it.”
“Buy? Who?”
“It and those who will kill it.”
At that, Merlin smiled bitterly.
“It must be a real war now.”
