Martial God Regressed to Level 2 - Chapter 76

< The Warlord Returned to Level 2, Episode 76 >

* * *

[Owner~ I think there will be guests from American First.]

“I’m going down.”

Seong Ji-han, who finished one game a day, went down to the guild office.

The standby guild, which had previously rented only a small office, was renting an entire floor of the Sword Palace.

Considering that I will move out of this building someday, renting it out like this was not a very good choice.

“The government said it was used? I won’t be paying rent, so please use it… … .”

The government that received the donation of the Sword Palace dispatched a manager for the building, but did not touch the sacred site.

The manager of Battle.net, who yelled at me to get out of the penthouse, had already lost real power.

The Korean government was anxious to provide any conveniences for Seong Ji-han, fearing that she might be going abroad.

‘I have to move here… … There’s no better place than the Penthouse to exercise Seah.’

It was ironic that the Penthouse, where Sword King Yoon Se-jin stayed, was the best place to exercise than many famous gyms outside.

“I used to be annoyed by my father’s traces… … well it’s okay now Where would you go and exercise in a facility like this?

After Yoon Se-ah also received the gift.

Repeating high-intensity training every day, they agreed that there is no facility like this.

‘Considering that, it was a good idea to expand the office.’ The waiting guild office was visible beyond the elevator.

There are still many empty spaces, but a few people were busily moving back and forth.

“Owner. Are you here?”

“There are a few more people.”

“yes. We’ve recruited some of the most urgent video teams right now. Including the owner’s videos, other guild members’ videos are also receiving attention.”

“It’s good.”

“That’s the space the video team uses. Most of them work from home as freelancers, so there are a lot of vacant positions.”

Having said that, Lee Ha-yeon shrugged.

“I wanted to hire him as a full-time employee, but maybe it’s because the editors are so used to working from home… … He said he didn’t want to go to work.”

“By the way, is there one?”

“Ah yes. He prefers to come out. Do you feel like going to work?”

In the space used by the video team, a woman was moving a mouse while staring at the monitor.

Then, did you see Seong Ji-han coming?

He got up from his seat and came towards me.

“Hello~~ This is Joo Eunji, the new employee!”

“Nice to meet you. Thank you for editing the video.”

The young woman wearing glasses was not very noticeable except for her strikingly white skin.

“yes! I will do my best! me by the way I’m a fan of Seong Ji-han, so please sign me… … May I ask you a favor?”

“Sure.”

Joo Eun-ji brought a pen and paper and held out the pen to Seong Ji-han.

When Seong Ji-han’s hands lightly brushed while receiving the pen.

“ah. That static electricity… … sorry.”

A small amount of static electricity rose from the touching hands.

“are you okay. Do you have anything to apologize for the static electricity?”

Seong Ji-han smiled as if nothing had happened and signed Joo Eun-ji with a skillful hand.

Maybe it’s because I signed so many times in my last life.

Sung Ji-han’s signature in English was pretty cool.

“Owner. You’re good at signing. Aren’t you practicing?”

“What little?”

Sung Ji-han looked at his autograph.

The same autographs he gave countless times to his fans during his American days.

No matter how much I return to the past, it seems that the habit remains.

“thank you so much! I will keep it as an heirloom!”

After receiving an autograph from Seong Ji-han, Joo Eun-ji smiled and said lively.

“What are you going to… … Then, have a good time at work.”

Seong Ji-han burst out laughing and greeted Joo Eun-ji lightly before entering the guild master room with Lee Ha-yeon.

Joo Eun-ji, who was looking at Seong Ji-han from a distance, suddenly raised one corner of her mouth.

* * *

The guild master room of the standby guild.

Seong Ji-han greeted the two players from American First.

‘Sophia is here too.’

Saint Sophia.

She, who had bothered Seong Ji-han quite a bit in the previous life, seemed to be interested in him in this life as well, her eyes twinkling.

On the other hand, Barron standing next to him was not pleased.

Her face is red and she smells like alcohol… … .

‘That drunkard got drunk again.’

Sung Ji-han asked them to shake hands.

“Nice to meet you like this.”

“It’s Barron.”

Barron shook hands with Seong Ji-han briefly and put his hand away.

“I am Sophia. I’m watching the broadcast. I am a fan.”

“Thank you for saying that.”

“How can you be so strong? It’s the best I’ve ever seen!”

“It’s overrated.”

“Actually, among the warriors, I liked Sword King Yoon… … I didn’t expect that there would be a player with more potential than that. Korea is a country of warriors, right?”

“The Sword King went to Japan.”

“But you were born here, right?”

Sophia was talking enthusiastically while holding Seongjihan’s hand tightly with both hands.

“By the way, are you really good at English?”

“All Koreans learn English by default.”

“Still, you are very good. Pronunciation is good too. Plus, your face is much more handsome than on the screen… … He’s tall too.”

“thank you.”

Sophia pours out praises to the point of embarrassing listeners.

Barron, who was next to me, said something that seemed like he couldn’t hear it at all.

“Sophia. stop it? Do you know what kind of fan signing event this is?”

“oh. That’s what I’m here for! I saw a sex broadcast on the way home today. Ah castle! Can I call you Jihan from now on?”

“… … Please.”

“and. Thank you so much Jihan! Then get an autograph!”

Sophia, still holding Seong Ji-han’s hand, screams like a girl fan.

Baron’s expression darkened even more.

How long are we going to see that shit?

“Whoa… … master. lease… … Please proceed.”

“ah. yes. All right.”

Lee Ha-yeon looked at Sophia, perhaps because it was strange, but came to her senses at Baron’s words, which had lost her strength.

“Does Guild Master speak English well?”

“I went to study abroad when I was young.”

“Whoops… … I don’t need an interpreter.”

Sophia glanced in the direction of the interpreter provided by American First, and tried to continue the conversation amicably.

but.

“Sophia! Will you stop chatting?”

“ah. all right. really.”

When Baron urged her with a grim expression, she stopped further conversation and proceeded with the rental.

The two of them left the American First Guild and joined the standby guild.

“Is this the buff effect… … .”

“and. Is this the growth rate buff you’ve only heard about?”

His eyes lit up when he saw the guild buff effect he received as soon as he joined.

Although the additional effect of all stats received while belonging to American First has disappeared.

That’s it, you can re-register later and enjoy the effect.

Right now, I had to aim for stat growth through this growth rate buff.

“Something as simple as that. It would have been nice if the guild master had come to America.”

Barron looked at the buff with a satisfied expression, then frowned at the thought of getting back on the plane again.

Wouldn’t it be impossible to play Battle.net for two days like this!

“oh. why? I came and got acquainted with Ji-han, so it’s nice!”

“joy… … ! Why did you refuse to come to the US on a business trip? I heard Robert promised a lot in return.”

In response to Barron’s question, Seong Ji-han took the place of Lee Ha-yeon.

“Once the guild master leaves overseas. You will receive such requests from other guilds every time. The guild master is the center of the guild. It’s not advisable to go around like that.”

The amount mentioned for travel expenses in American First was quite coveted, but the core of the standby guild was Lee Ha-yeon, who now has a supporting gift training.

It was more important to keep her place here than wandering around outside and exposing her abilities.

However, Baron, who did not know this situation, laughed to the fullest and interpreted Seong Ji-han’s words at his own discretion.

“Is that so? Isn’t that what kept me in check?”

“… … ?”

Sung Ji-han was dumbfounded.

Who is who?

“Barron holding you in check? I am?”

“exactly.”

“Why do I… … Do you do checks?”

Sung Ji-han shrugged his shoulders as if he didn’t understand the meaning of his heart.

“A player who died in one hit with me. how… … why?”

“Oops. that that… … It was a mistake!”

“no. That’s not a mistake. Barron. It’s your lack of ability.”

Sung Ji-han raised one corner of his mouth as he affirmed that.

“Welcome to the standby guild. Barron. I hope you grow up and become a player with enough presence that I need to keep in check.”

“Ugh… … .”

“When you wake up, you will be ashamed of what we said today.”

“… … I will go!”

Baron left the guild master room with a reddened face.

It’s like saying a word and then going back without getting anything.

“Ah really. You have unnecessarily high self-esteem, really… … .”

Seeing Barron like that, Sophia shook her head excitedly.

“Jihan~ See you later~!”

He waved at Seong Ji-han with a smile and followed Barron.

* * *

Joo Eun-ji, who was working on the video team, glanced at the guild master room.

‘The ability to work even against the sword king… … Doesn’t it work?’

She is a player called “goddess” in Japan.

In order to find a way to contact Seong Ji-han, she successfully infiltrates the guild under the name Joo Eun-ji.

It was good to have skin contact with him while getting his autograph.

however.

[Your opponent does not have access.]

A message that had never appeared while using the gift so far came to mind.

‘My ability doesn’t work at all… … It’s my first time dealing with someone like this.’

I thought it would be boring because the other person was silver, but if this was the case, wouldn’t he have come as his body instead of an alter ego?

‘Does the ability of an alter ego not work on SSS-class gifts?’

Of course, Joo Eun-ji thinks Seong Ji-han has an SSS-class gift.

She spotted Barron huffing out of the boss’s office.

‘That person was also in the SSS class, right?’

Barron Williams.

He was Joo Eun-ji’s next target before Seong Ji-han rose to prominence.

After she figured out Barron’s route.

I got up from my seat and grabbed a bunch of papers.

Then, I made a line to bump into him on purpose.

“be careful… … !”

Sophia, who had been following Barron, called out urgently.

puck!

“what?”

“ouch… … .”

Joo Eun-ji bumped into Barron and bounced off.

“What the fuck… … .”

Barron, who was about to spit out harsh curses at the opponent who bumped into him.

“Ouch… … sorry… … Oh my sorry… … .”

Seeing Joo Eun-ji apologizing in awkward English, I blinked.

“Barron. You apologize too. You have to look ahead!”

“Um… … .”

Barron doesn’t seem to hear Sophia’s point.

I stared at Joo Eunji’s face.

“I’m sorry… … .”

Even though he apologized with his mouth.

His eyes continued to follow Joo Eunji’s face.

“ah. Im ok. Sorry. Sorry… … !”

Joo Eun-ji hurriedly organizes the pile of documents and leaves.

Barron stared blankly at his back.

this feeling… … What is it?

‘To such an ordinary-looking Asian… … why me?’

“what are you doing?”

“… … no. let’s go.”

At Sofia’s point, Baron heads for the elevator.

However, as he went, he glanced back several times.

Joo Eun-ji was absorbed in her work, pretending not to see that gaze.

‘hmm… … That’s it.’

A smile was on his lips.

I guess it’s because it’s SSS level, so it doesn’t work.

‘Then does Sung Ji-han have any other special abilities? … I’ll make you mine soon.’

Although it failed once.

Joo Eun-ji was only confident.
