Relife Player 122

[Chapter 050]

[Night of Flowers Blooming]

Mid-April.

The express bus carrying the children ran on the Yangyang Expressway.

Even before I got out of Seoul, the view surrounded by downtown quickly changed to an empty plain with nothing.

A landscape in which no trace of human habitation can be found.

Only traces of being destroyed by monsters greeted the children.

Then, starting with the captain, start talking!

because i don’t

Don’t do that, boss! They say it’s going to take a long time, but let’s play!

hamburger.

leech!

yttrium.

…uh? What is it?

It is a rare earth element with atomic number 39.

Jung Ha-yang, how else do you know that? I read it as a book!

Eun-ha looked at White, who was in the back seat, dumbfounded.

Hayang, who was wearing a seat belt, could not stick his face out over the seat back.

Instead, the ribbon tied in the shape of a bow was prickly and pushed out over the backrest.

ok good Well, I’ll do it first this time. actress!

uranium. what else is that!

Uranium corresponds to atomic number 92….

Hayang, would you like to eat this?

Hayang was speechless.

It was because Seo-na, who was sitting next to her, put a cookie she said she had made at church into her mouth.

Meanwhile, Eunha sighed.

The beauty of the express bus was stopping at a rest area to look for food and sleeping until arriving at the destination.

The 4th graders were on their way to a two-night, three-day retreat.

It took quite a while to leave Seoul and go to Chuncheon.

It is said that even before < Destruction at the End of the Century >, elementary school students went to races as a retreat.

Nonsense.

how to go that distance

Eun-ha, who heard the story from her mother, was the first to stick out her tongue and shake her head.

From Seoul to Chuncheon. It was a distance that took about 4 hours by express bus alone.

Considering the time for players to deal with the monsters that appear on the road, 4 hours passed easily.

But it’s a race.

Even when he was a player, it was a distance that he had to camp at the halfway point and go.

Because old people are really great.

It was unimaginable for him, who expected that his neck would hurt just by holding out for four hours and brought a neck pillow.

He even brought an eye patch for sleeping.

play quietly with each other I’ll be fine from now on

uh? Leader! isn’t that a monster?

Eunhyuk pointed out the window.

The other children also groaned when they saw the monster on the right side of the road.

Eun-ha, who was about to put on an eyepatch, secretly looked out the window.

At most, a few monsters that belonged to the 7th tier were trying to cross the guardrail.

What should I do! It seems to be coming this way!

mister! The monster is after you!

hurry! sooner!

Some of the children screamed.

The express bus only increased its speed a little, but didn’t pay attention to the monsters following it.

It was natural.

This is because players were waiting at certain intervals on the highway.

uh? It’s a player!

and lived!

really cool!

Players residing in standby stations placed at certain distances.

As soon as they confirmed the existence of the monster, they ran out.

It didn’t take long for the party of eight to annihilate the low-level monsters.

Captain, what clan did those people belong to?

It’s different for each individual, but usually it’s a party or a mercenary.

Outside of periods of increased traffic, such as Family Month or Chuseok, most of the players who resided on the highway were small parties or mercenaries.

Because there was no more stable job for them than guarding the highway.

Before the return of the Milky Way, there were several times when I had to guard the highway.

At the high school academy, I went to practice to learn the field sense as a player, and no one gave a job to a new player, so I had no choice but to do it.

…I’ll be bored if I stay here.

not very boring

Eun-ha was well aware of how difficult it was to wait for monsters to appear in an empty field.

Doing nothing and fighting time was painful.

At that time, he suffered unbearably. He, who lived only to kill monsters, could not bear to wait for monsters.

When I was gazing at the open view without doing anything, only useless thoughts came to my mind.

It wasn’t enough.

Very few players liked the idea of earning a paycheck for doing nothing.

Boredom was the enemy of the player.

Everyone who had a reason to become a player hated looking back at the past.

So, in the middle of the highway, where the government or the clan couldn’t interfere, there were cases where we committed crimes among ourselves and made bets on useless things.

Eunha also had a knife fight with those who had been arguing with her to get rid of the unbearable boredom.

Even if he was a new player, he could not get tired of the players who defended the highway after stopping the invasion of Seoul by the monster corps.

But… have I changed?

I had a sudden thought.

Since he lived his second life, he had looked back on the past several times.

It was still painful.

It was like a wound that never healed, but I didn’t regret it.

Is it because I died once?

Han, who lived to die, was solved at the end of < Dungeon of the Abyss >.

At the end of his death, he gained a new life and overcame even the culprit who had to live to die.

Maybe that’s why.

The reason why you can accept your past life.

Since the monsters came from the back rather than from the front, there won’t be any delay in getting there.

Eunha wore a sleep mask.

After asking Eunhyuk not to wake him, he intended to go to sleep.

uh? Leader! In the waiting area ahead, players are waving at us?

Eun-ha called Eun-hyuk, but she did not answer.

He waved his hand in the air and turned his body to the side to convey his annoyance.

Either that or not, Eunhyuk put his face outside the window and explained the situation.

what? Everyone seems to be raising their middle fingers and saying something…

Are they greeting us?

yeah that’s insulting you guys

Some of the players tried to shake off their boredom by swearing at cars on the highway.

Children who don’t know anything misunderstood that they were saying hello.

what? I feel strangely unwell. First of all, do I have to say hello….

He’ll be happy if you show him the middle finger.

Do you want to

uh. i really sleep

I don’t know if Eunhyuk cursed with his finger.

Eunha quickly fell into a dreamland.

One sense was staggering.

When I arrived at the rest area, I woke up, looked around for food, closed my eyes again, and went to sleep.

After 4 hours,

the children arrived at the Dawn Hotel Chuncheon branch.

☆

There are three people who are qualified to succeed Lee Yoon-hee, the first president of Dawn Group.

The three successors were running different business units within the group.

Samnam is the food distribution division responsible for the dawn group’s funds and sales network.

The hotel and department store sector, which have a tradition as a dawn group, are the second son.

Lastly, the entertainment sector that leads the culture of Korea is the eldest son Lee Byung-in.

shit.

Lee Byung-in was not at his place for a moment and paced around the office.

He sighed and bit his lip.

The successors had to prove their ability to be the next president by achieving excellent results in their respective fields.

However, Lee Byung-in only failed in his business.

I couldn’t beat my younger siblings with performance alone.

Especially to the second Lee Jung-in, who is achieving high performance in the hotel and department store sectors, who contributed to the Dawn Group’s name rising to its current position.

The third was not much of an obstacle. The third, who declared that he would not become president himself, was not a competitor.

Jungin Lee. Only Lee Jung-in was a competitor.

If he could handle it, becoming the chairman of Dawn Group would be a breeze.

…People should only do what they are good at.

In the first place, Lee Byung-in neglected management classes since he was a child.

Management was not right from the start.

So he had to keep Lee Jung-in in check with what he could do well.

It was the Dawn Department Store terrorism incident, in which a dispute that had been under water five years ago surfaced.

The plan was perfect. If the terrorists had escaped in time, the media would have announced the event as a natural disaster rather than a terrorist attack.

Yes, if it hadn’t failed.

The plan failed.

Thoroughly too.

…there was no humiliation, damn it. Everyone I met laughed at me.

Lee Byung-in put his finger on the blind and looked out the window.

People who look small like ants and myself standing in a position looking down on them.

When I felt uncomfortable, I used to look out at people from a high place like this.

The feeling of putting them under your feet.

I felt like I was in control of them.

So I wanted to become the chairman of Dawn Group in order to climb higher.

I wanted to be, but

why the hell am I failing at everything I do!

As time passed, he was moving away from the post of president-elect.

He slammed his fist out of his office window.

There was only a thud, but the glass did not break.

Nothing.

what? That I should just listen to what you have to say?

But why am I like this now? uh?

The dawn department store terrorism was a trigger that could destroy Lee Jung-in’s support base and shake his position.

if it hadn’t failed.

Terrorism, which should have been carried out in the shadows, was revealed in the light.

Those in the know in politics and business realized that it was not terrorism, but a succession war by the Dawn Group.

As a result, the first chairman Lee Yoon-hee returned to management.

The mother took back all the power and rights that her children had.

From then on, the successors had to participate in management under the supervision of their mother.

The problem was not only that.

The Shinra Clan, which always maintained a neutral position as a sword protecting the Dawn Group, began to oppose itself and support Lee Jeong-in.

Lee Jung-in also pulled out a knife.

In the meantime, the younger brother, who insisted on fair competition and lived with a good personality and suffered like a hogu, changed his mind.

The result was like this.

There was no further retreat.

[Don’t worry too much.]

Is this not something to worry about?

Gil Seong-jun, you promised to make me the president, and I promised to provide you with enormous wealth.

But what is this like now?

Lee Byung-in, who turned away from the window, spoke menacingly to the smartphone on the desk.

Beyond the smartphone, only the sound of breathing could be heard.

[After that incident, there were cases where things did not go as planned due to interference from the Shilla Clan.

But this time, you will definitely succeed.]

Yes, you should succeed. If this thing fails, it’s over there.

[It will succeed.]

I will not die alone.

Remember, when I die, you die too.

[…I’ll keep this in mind.]

Lee Byung-in hung up the phone.

His face, breathing heavily, was reflected on the screen, which turned off.

─Whoa.

You have to succeed. certainly.

He took a deep breath and looked out the window again, lost in thought.

It was the last chance.

So, he expressed his intention to realize his mistake and sincerely apologize to his younger brother with all his might.

While apologizing that he was sincerely sorry, he suggested that the two of them drink together to strengthen brotherly friendship.

He was a younger brother who had a kind heart since childhood.

As expected, Lee Jung-in nodded without a second doubt.

Not knowing that it was a conspiracy to bring him down.

…I’m sorry brother.

Lee Byung-in muttered something he didn’t even want to say.

Suddenly, laughter leaked out. He put his hand on the window and shook his shoulders.

I’m sorry,

good and foolish brother.

The younger brother was kind enough to never be cruel to his brother or bold enough to take advantage of others even though he had been hurt once.

I didn’t know that I could doubt it because it was nice.

I was stupid because I didn’t know how to doubt, I

was stupid because I was

stupid, and I was stupid because I was stupid.

…Stupid bastard.

A hotel far from Seoul.

When the foolish younger brother wakes up drunk after drinking alcohol with drugs, he will face a ruined life overnight.

A lot of things must have happened while he was unconscious.

For example, what if a monster attacks a hotel while you close your eyes?

What if the manager of the Dawn Hotel drank and got drunk in the hotel room while the guests ran away to live?

What if he was sleeping with a woman?

Conversely, what if he, the eldest son of the Dawn Group, safely evacuated the guests and stopped the monster attack instead of the drunken man?

At that time, who will be illuminated and who will be blinded?

No matter how unfair you appeal with tears, will there really be someone who believes in you at that time?

There will be no one.

Even if people in politics and business are suspicious, my mother will back public opinion this time.

Even a fairy could not defeat public opinion in Korea.

…there is no failure.

There are no failures.

drove as they drove.

There was no next.

So, you have to be brave and go out.

Surely—

he ruminated as he grabbed the blinds.

It will be a good night.

A night so beautiful that you will never see it again.

─

succeed

Lee Byung-in looked down at his feet and giggled.
