Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 105

Episode 105 The

surroundings became noisy.

This was because representative players from each country who had been scattered throughout Abyss and Asia were returning.

Before we knew it, it was already 30 minutes before the end of point conversion.

The protagonist had already been decided.

“It’s Zhang Linfeng!!”

“Jang Linfeng!! “Please do an interview!!”

Five minutes had passed since Zhang Linfeng arrived.

“Uh…uh!! Shinji Nakata is here too!!”

“Could it be that they came from hunting in the same area?”

“omg. Take a look at my life…”

“I’m looking forward to converting this into points.”

Two players representing China and Japan.

Five people participated, and now only two remain as national power players.

Although there was a lot of enthusiasm to cover them, the people involved headed straight to the forensics team.

This is because, unlike the identification of demons, the identification of monsters is handled separately by those who have awakened the expert skill.

For the past six days, experts under the protection of the forensics team have been handling the magic gemstone in private.

On the 7th day, the point conversion was to be done on site with everyone watching.

Experts were already on site waiting to calculate the final points between China and Japan.

This is because they know that if the competition for leadership is fierce, the deadline on the last day will come soon.

In the order of arrival, the Chinese side’s emotions started first.

Jiang Shuwei turned over the Wuhan backpack he was carrying.

Whoosh.

A heaps of A-grade and S-grade magic stones were piled up.

“Wow… how many are there in total?”

“After all, it’s China. “You defeated an S-class monster like an orc.”

Even though ten experts rushed in, the appraisal took a considerable amount of time.

“The emotions are over. “I will convert it to points right away.”

At the words of the forensics team, Zhang Linfeng, Zhang Shuwei, and Wei Wei Chao stepped back with triumphant expressions.

Reporters captured the scene on camera.

“I guess it would be impossible for Japan to catch up with China, right?”

“You never know. If it’s that ghost sword…”

After a while.

When Satoshi Ishii turned over his infinite backpack, more magic stones than China poured out.

What was unusual was that the magic stone was glowing black.

“It is the magic stone of the monsters in the colony.”

As Satomi Takano added, the appraisers exclaimed in exclamation.

colony.

That meant the habitat of insect-type monsters forming a group in the depths of the Abyss.

No matter how small the colony, there are at least ten or more S-class monsters wandering around.

In particular, in the case of black colony monsters, the magic stone points were evaluated to be about 1.2 times higher than normal.

The value of the magic stone itself is high, but this is because the annihilation advantage is applied.

Points were immediately added up to the real-time status table displayed on the large screen.

click. click. click.

“Wow… it was really close until the end.”

“Wouldn’t it be a waste from Japan’s perspective?”

“Hoo. Demon sword guy. “You used quite a trick.”

Zhang Linfeng sneered after checking the results.

I didn’t let down my guard.

I just don’t prefer to risk my life on points like those from small countries who think they are one step below me.

‘As expected, Kim Tae-hyun. ‘Good job dealing with that guy.’

Zhang Linfeng calmly accepted the result with a bitter smile.

Except for the change in ranking as Qatar hunted S-class demons and monsters, everything was as expected.

Meanwhile, congratulations and consolation were exchanged among the association presidents.

“In the end, I couldn’t turn it over.”

“It is indeed a ghost sword. “If that guy had entered the Abyss early, it would have been our inevitable defeat.”

Jeongzu received Masataka Kubota’s regretful words with a smile.

However, both of them were thinking differently inside.

‘I guess I’ll have to file a lawsuit quickly for this.’

‘Fortunately, Hong Kong will be taken as scheduled.’

They each hid their own plans and belatedly looked at Ji Jin-hee.

If Kim Tae-hyun hadn’t gone missing, the current rankings could have been reversed.

They sent ridicule disguised as courtesy to Ji Jin-hee.

Ji Jin-hee expressed her gratitude in a pretentious manner and did not hide her bitter smile.

‘Is it 3rd place in the end…’

It was the ranking I expected, but I couldn’t help but feel disappointed now.

‘As long as Taehyun is safe, it will be good.’

Ji Jin-hee calmly accepted the situation, praying that Go Tae-wook would bring Tae-hyeon back safely.

[Asian player friendly match. 15 minutes before end. Representative players from each country and association presidents, please take your seats.]

The voice of the man in charge of emcee echoed around the area.

Since they know that no one will come anymore, they are going to proceed with the next schedule.

Chairman Zheng Zhi headed to the podium of the winning country with a satisfied expression.

at that time.

Wooooow.

A warp gate leading to the depths of the Abyss began to operate.

Everyone’s eyes turned to the gate that suddenly opened.

“…?”

“what? “Have all the attendees arrived?”

“I know. “Everyone except the missing people…”

“Wait a minute. Now that I think about it, among the missing people….”

Everyone’s attention was focused on the warp gate.

A man walked out from there.

* * *

Hundreds of people gathered to watch the final moments of a friendly match.

As well as billions of people watching the broadcast on their cameras.

Receiving that gaze.

Taehyun, looking shabby, walked out.

“Kim Taehyun!!”

“Unbelievable!!”

“Hey turn the camera!!”

“Aim the camera towards the gate!!”

The appearance of Taehyeon, who had been reported missing, caused an uproar throughout the area.

It was the same for the players.

In particular, Linfeng Zhang and Shinji Nakata showed outstanding reactions.

‘How could that guy…!!’

‘Kim Tae-hyun…!!’

Taehyun walked to the place where President Ji Jin-hee of the association was, leaving their gaze behind.

His appearance was shabby, but his eyes were still the same.

“I guess I’m not late.”

“Taehyun…”

Ji Jin-hee hugged Taehyun with tears in her eyes.

“I’m sorry for causing you worry.”

“No. Because I’m not good enough, you guys…”

“First, let’s get the magic stone appraised.”

“You can’t believe it…?”

In response to Ji Jin-hee’s question, Taehyun held up an infinite backpack.

“yes. “I brought quite a lot.”

Sigh.

Taehyun smiled confidently.

* * *

Taehyun turned to the appraisers, receiving all the attention of the reporters and players association presidents.

“I came to get the magic stone appraised.”

Taehyun turned over Infinite’s backpack.

Warrrrrrrrr.

Hundreds of magic stones poured out.

“Oh my god…”

“Are you saying you caught it all by yourself?”

“I can’t believe it….”

Jang Jin-soo and Seo Han-gil were announced dead, while Park Seong-jin and Kwak Si-yang withdrew due to injury.

So, all we can say is that Taehyun caught all the owners of the magic stone alone.

at that time.

Quang.

Suddenly an explosion occurred.

Zhang Linfeng, who was watching this whole situation, unleashed his magical power.

“What kind of trick is this?”

“A trick?”

Taehyun asked back with an expression as if this was nonsense.

“The missing guy suddenly brought back hundreds of top-grade magic stones. Are you really telling me to just trust you? “It’s not even funny.”

Taehyun smirked and raised the corners of his mouth.

“Are you afraid? “I think I conquered that tower?”

“bloke!! “Stop talking nonsense and tell the truth!!”

“I think you’re talking nonsense. “The experts here will confirm when this magic stone was captured and who caught it.”

As he said that, Taehyun looked at the ten appraisers.

They were already quickly appraising the magic stones that Taehyun poured out.

“Everything is authentic.”

“All I have appraised are S-rank or higher.”

“I just confirmed that the time when the magic stone was extracted was within 24 hours.”

“The magic power remaining in the magic stone is the same as that registered to player Taehyun Kim.”

“Player Kim Tae-hyun. “No other magical powers are known.”

I haven’t appraised all the magic stones yet.

At least for now, it was revealed that Taehyun was the owner of the magic stone.

“Ha…”

At first glance, there seemed to be over a hundred.

If the value of those magic stones was recognized, there was a high possibility that the winning country would change.

If that happens, it’s not just China that will be in trouble.

‘We must prevent those magic stones from being recognized as points.’

Otherwise, it was clear that Japan’s plan to steal the championship title would be in vain.

Masataka Kubota shouted loudly with magical energy.

“It is unprecedented that a missing player reappears and the magic gemstone he brought with him is recognized!!”

Murmur.

Amid the uproar, representatives from China and Japan agreed.

Representatives from other countries could only watch the current situation with interest.

“But!! It wouldn’t be polite to criticize a comrade who came back from life and death!! “I am requesting a temporary meeting to establish proper order!!”

Suddenly the camera focused on the ten association presidents.

The direction of the meeting was clear.

The Japanese association president says he cannot recognize Taehyun’s missing magic stone, and the Chinese association president supports it.

And the presidents of the five countries reluctantly nodded for fear of being overlooked by both countries.

The only ones who steadfastly opposed their logic were Taiwan, Hong Kong, and New Korea.

Ji Jin-hee, the president of the association, raised his voice in response to the continued unreasonable claims.

“What kind of fucking logic is this!!”

“Look. Ji Jin-hee, president of the association. Isn’t this unprecedented? “It is too big a matter to acknowledge all of those magic stones.”

Masataka Kubota said with a sad expression on his face.

Even though cameras from around the world were watching, it was completely shameless.

At that time, Chairman Zheng Zhi said with a satisfied expression.

“How about acknowledging just one of the magic stones? People all over the world are watching. “I vote in a way that makes sense.”

The eyes of Association President Jeongzu and Association President Masataka Kubota met.

“Vote. That would be nice. “Isn’t that what we’re here for anyway?”

“I think that would be better.”

“We are broadcasting live. “I can’t keep looking like this forever.”

Ji Jin-hee clenched her fists as the association presidents agreed one after another.

But the trend has already been set.

Even if New Korea shouted here that it could not be acknowledged, it would only end up highlighting a bad image around the world.

‘this… Shameless bastards….’

The vote was 7 to 3.

Taiwan and Hong Kong sided with New Korea.

The remaining five countries sided with China and Japan for national interests.

After a while, an announcement rang that only one of the magic stones that Taehyun had brought would be recognized.

Zhang Linfeng smiled bitterly.

Just one.

That’s because we can’t catch up with China’s points.

In the end, nothing changes.

‘Kim Tae-hyun. This is the difference in national power. It’s a difficult difference for a small country like yours to change.’

Unlike Zhang Linfeng, who mocks him.

In fact, Taehyun, the person involved, had an innocent face.

“It’s one thing… Then this would be good as expected.”

Taehyun took out a new magic stone from his chest.

Bigger than the others.

It was a red magic stone that looked like it could burn at any moment.
