The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 46

Episode 46. You are cowardly.

Yusura Kingdom is developing in real time.

The speed of the reconstruction was beyond common sense.

Most of all, because the amount of money spent was enormous.

After Cataclysm.

Non-combat players who had no choice but to narrow their position.

As Yusra Kingdom began rebuilding, smiles bloomed on their faces for the first time in a while.

“Is the day of the production workers finally coming?”

“It was a really long time of humiliation and persecution. Because there was nothing different from normal people in the rift. But the day will come when I will make money as a player for the rest of my life!”

“Hey Mr. Kim. Don’t make a fuss and carry the bricks.”

The first Arcana nation to appear in reality.

The amount of capital invested in Yusra Kingdom was beyond imagination.

First of all, a large guild comparable to a tolerable company.

Gaon and Berserker’s investment alone was too much to ignore.

“Aggressive investment by Gaon and Berserker. What do you think, experts?”

“It is a wise decision for the future. I might be able to sort that out. In fact, it won’t be too far in the future. Even at this moment, Gaon and Berserker are increasing their influence in Yusra Kingdom.”

“Isn’t the amount invested now a waste of money?”

“Yes, it is.”

Even if you actually exclude Gaon and Berserker.

There were guild players and even nations who visited Yusra Kingdom with huge investments.

Among them, China was the most active.

“We want to establish a close cooperative relationship with Yusra Kingdom. If it is the unification of the guild of a great nation, it will be a stronger support for the kingdom than Gaon or Berserker.”

A little sincerity with such a proposal.

But who was Hakuna, the king of Yusura?

He knew the horrors of greed better than anyone else.

In addition, even the realization that I gained while watching Ho-yeol.

Hakuna coldly rejected all attractive offers.

“My resolve will not change.”

The only thing that can change that resolution is Ho-yeol.

Besides, wasn’t it Yusra Kingdom, which was called a treasure island in legends not too long ago?

In fact, even if they sold only the minerals they collected, they could cover the cost of reconstruction.

It was the parties who knew that fact better than anyone else.

Bukkake—

Leonie scratched her head.

“Aaaaaa.”

screams flowing out.

The silent guild members whispered among themselves.

“Why are you here again?”

“It’s obvious. Are you still worrying for nothing?”

“Oh what do you think?”

To the extent that even nonsensical words do not reach my ears.

Leonie’s feelings were complex and subtle.

How should I explain it?

‘…Something is going very well.’

What does it feel like to have your debt grow in real time?

I’m not talking about material debt.

What Leonie felt was a debt in her heart.

Yes, as the guild members said, it was because of the heat.

“why? why? Aaaaaa.”

Isn’t it too much of a reward to be called a mere favor?

It didn’t make sense to receive it compared to the help given.

Leonie nimbly bit her nails.

‘what? Aren’t you such a human? really?’

If you already like it, you may not like it.

Leonie pursed her lips and shook her head.

The first meeting with Ho-yeol, who comes to mind naturally.

‘Right. Right. With that sleazy personality.’

With that petty personality who doesn’t share a cup of tea.

It’s just that he couldn’t have done this kind of favor.

Leonie grabbed her messy hair.

‘…but what are you going to bring?’

enough to take something from yourself.

Is Ho-yeol lacking something…?

No matter how hard I tried, nothing seemed to happen.

So, I felt like doing something.

Pause—

Leonie’s hand that was messing with her hair stopped.

‘…No way really?’

…Is that car that valuable?

So much so that you can’t even give me a drink?

no, can’t you?

‘What a great car?’

Leonie thought so, then shook her head vigorously.

Then he turned his head and shouted.

“Dude, this is all because of you!!”

“…What is he saying now. suddenly?”

“What’s wrong with you sister? Are you hysterical?”

Leaving the bewildered guild members behind.

Leonie is in agony again.

“…So, when do you pay off your debt and when do you get it?”

“Have you eaten? what? Oh, are you talking about that car then?”

“shut up.”

“Unnie, can’t I just ask and buy it and eat it?”

“It is different from buying and eating. What do you guys know?!”

“…I don’t know who the older sister is, but it’s the real truth.”

.

.

.

“What do you think bro?”

Nam Tae-min asked his older brother, Nam Chul-min.

Brothers do not have to talk for a long time to communicate.

“What do you think, just how do I pay it back? That’s just the thought.”

Arcana’s official website.

Newly updated guild rankings.

The two brothers confirmed the rankings again.

──────

1. Shining (-)

2. Unification (-)

3. Gaon (+2)

4. Bohemian (-1)

5. Inazuma (-1)….

───── ─

The guild ranking has risen by two notches.

It was not enough to surpass Inazuma and rose to third place.

Even if they danced for joy, the brothers were calm.

“Think of it as meaning to do better.”

That’s right, it was Ho-yeol, not them, who made that ranking rise. Even thinking about it again, my eyes are dizzy. If it hadn’t been for the relationship with Ho-yeol

…

from its beginning until now.

It seemed that Ho-yeol had only been receiving it.

how do i pay it back

When I think about it, my eyes widen.

Nam Tae-min was motivated.

“Let’s properly finish the reconstruction of the Yusra kingdom entrusted by Mr. Hoyeol. brother!”

However, Nam Chul-min’s expression was serious.

My older brother’s gaze was still fixed on the monitor.

Nam Tae-min also looked into the monitor wondering what was going on, then frowned.

“…these guys. Are you starting to fuck again?”

──────

[At this time, the National Assembly] “Congratulations on entering the 3rd place in the guild rankings… However, it is regrettable that there is no cooperation with the Shinhwa Guild… At times like this, the more we work together…”

─── ───

Terrible media play.

It wasn’t just once or twice.

Myth Guild.

It was an open fact that they were closely related to the political world.

It was so explicit that even netizens noticed it.

-It’s the start of unflagging again, Shinhwa idiots haha

-Since you can’t do it with your skills, you do all the filthy things

-No,

why does Gaon have to lead them?

There were also opinions that raised serious questions.

-How many times have you been fed up with politicians?

Nam Chul-min, who was reading the comments together, opened his mouth.

“This time it crosses the line a little too hard.”

“I agree 100 percent. But I don’t understand what the heck.”

“what?”

“No, how did those Shinhwa bastards hold on to those old people? Well, it’s been rumored that he’s been working on tweaks for a long time.

“I hear and see it.”

Nam Chul-min nodded at his brother’s point.

How image-conscious are politicians?

No matter how good the money is, the recent move is hard to understand.

You can tell by just looking at the angry comment window.

How can you continue to defend Shinhwa despite such public sentiment?

Nam Tae-min clenched his fist.

“Anyway, trivial things bother me. really.”

If this was Arcana, it would just be a guild war. I.

“I would have just dumped the catfish!”

Shuuk shuk—

a fist swinging in the air.

Nam Tae-min licks his lips in regret for a moment.

Nam Chul-min shrugged.

“No matter what, one thing must be certain.”

“huh? what?”

“To make sure Ho-yeol doesn’t have sparks.”

“Oh, of course it is! But it’s ridiculous. really?”

Nam Tae-min laughed.

“Did everyone get it completely wrong? Myths or politicians? In the end, it was Mr. Ho-yeol who defeated the evil. All we did was really just spoon it on.”

“I know. I’m dying of boredom too. Taemin.”

The Seven Deadly Sins Greed.

Ho-yeol overpowered a level 650 monster.

However, the world did not know the truth of that day.

If you feel frustrated, look at this.

I wanted to show the world the video of Ho-yeol’s battle.

“At first, I was worried about what would happen if Ho-yeol’s battle pattern was analyzed… but in fact, there was nothing to worry about. No matter how much you look, you won’t know I’ve never seen a skill like that before.”

Nam Cheol-min, a competent analyst.

With a skill he didn’t even know about, Ho-yeol hunted the monster.

The moment this recorded video is released.

The world will turn upside down once more

however.

“No matter what, Ho-yeol’s doctor is important.”

“Right. Shall we leave a message while we talk?”

“message? Why don’t you look at my face?”

Hoyeol must be so busy.

Ho-yeol’s face was hard to see even if he stayed in Yusra Kingdom.

Nam Chul-min folded his fingers and checked Ho-yeol’s daily routine.

“You were on a quest at the Magic Tower, right? Then the morning hours go by fast. Come to Yusra Kingdom in the afternoon… But wait a minute. Come to think of it, Mr. Hoyeol, have you been hanging out with Harkon a lot lately?”

Harkon, Commander of the Lion Heart Knights.

Nam Tae-min asked what he was thinking.

“…Any other quests? wouldn’t it be No matter how unrelated it is? Because Hoyeol is a wizard and Harkon is a knight.”

“Well I don’t know? let’s get excited Taemin.”

“Ouch! What if my brother said that?!”

Likewise, Nam Tae-min screams.

I was trying to chase a stork and my crotch was torn…!

*

It was not possible to confirm the growth as a number like the skill.

But you can see it with your own eyes.

Gooooh—

the sharpened swordsmanship.

Is it worthwhile to train hard for a few days?

I fell into a brief flashback with an expressionless face.

‘It was literally the power to die really…’

Once again I realized the importance of [natural enemy relationships].

A life-or-death battle with a level 300 monster.

I couldn’t express it, but it really wasn’t easy.

“This is an incredible growth rate. Lord Hoyeol!”

Harkon let out pure admiration.

“It’s nonsense…”

Not only Harkon, but Yesika Enoch, who is also a swordsman, was clearly surprised.

yeah i wouldn’t have thought of that

To think that they had raised that faint swordsmanship to their level.

‘I wish they would know about my high school students.’

Swordsmanship deepens on the battlefield where life and death come and go.

What does that mean?

It is said that this kingdom of Yusra was a battlefield where life and death came and went to me.

From a minimum of 300 levels to a high of 400 levels!

Each and every monster that roams around is a formidable enemy to me.

‘There wouldn’t have been such a struggle…’

those guys.

[Natural Enemy Relationship] has not been activated.

Defeated only with swordsmanship?

It was impossible even if it emitted sword energy.

Strength and agility stat.

At least, I don’t know if they can support me with physical strength.

‘I don’t know later, but now I can’t even guess.’

It’s a reality that stamina runs out as soon as you release sword energy…! That’s why it was said that he struggled while developing even the 『magic』.

‘It was really messy.’

Of course I can’t say that with my own mouth.

Clack—

I put the sword into the scabbard and said calmly.

“That was a great teaching. Sir Harkon.”

Learned everything to learn.

At that brazen declaration, Harkon shook his head gently.

“What have I taught you? All I’ve done is give you a little chance to wake up your talent for the sword. Jessica Enoch. Did you see it?”

Harkon looked at the two knights and uttered a voluptuous speech.

It was a kind of psychism.

“Even Lord Hoyeol, who has such a talent, developed his sword skills in a desperate struggle. What does it mean? The environment doesn’t matter. The important thing is this attitude…!”

There’s a reason why you and I can communicate well.

‘They’re both idiots.’

One is formal, the other is spiritualism.

The more I listen, the more I feel like I’m losing my mind.

I left.

It’s time to go to work.

As I was heading to the portal, my smartphone suddenly vibrated.

‘Nam Tae-min?’

Gaon’s guild master.

The second you want to check the text he sent.

someone has spoken

“hello! You’re Mr. Lee Ho-yeol over there, right? Minkook Ilbo. Jeong Man-seok is the leader. I know it’s rude, but I’ll ask you one quick question!”

As I just said.

Kkondae who values formality.

My planting was bound to be disturbed from his first greeting.

I was genuinely curious.

pointed out so

Why do humans make the same mistakes over and over again?

“As a fellow citizen of the Republic of Korea… And the day when the Kingdom of Yusra was revealed to the world. I would like to ask Mr. Lee Ho-yeol, who was in the same seat. What do you think about the growing voice of criticism towards Gaon?”

However, Jeong Man-seok, who was pouring out questions, was trembling.

Yes, I am different from normal players.

The reason why I was able to be free from the media was all thanks to this prickly personality.

There is no way that Jeong Man-seok would not know that.

So, he held back his trembling and spoke to me.

‘I understand roughly what the question means.’

It is a voice of criticism towards Gaon.

Just like other media outlets did.

Minguk Ilbo must have also received an order from the Shinhwa Guild.

It wasn’t like a chirashi that only those in the know know.

‘Because it’s like they’re pushing me openly.’

It was an obvious ploy that you can understand just by looking at Internet news comments.

I looked at Jeong Man-seok.

What hung over that pupil was fear.

‘I know that feeling well.’

If you put it on top, you have no choice but to lay it down.

I have no choice but to do it even if I don’t want to.

It is the misery of an employee.

So I opened my mouth.

“Tell me right away.”

It was not an act of compassion.

It is simply unacceptable.

Mythic Guild or whatever.

for their own benefit.

hiding behind

A snarl that cleverly manipulates people and the media.

The lofty pride cannot be left unattended.

“It doesn’t matter who it is. Is there anything you want in Yusra Kingdom? Then don’t hide in meanness. Also, don’t roll your funny hair.”

That kind of behavior was the complete opposite of a nobleman’s attitude.

I said coldly.

“Present yourself proudly before me.”

“…yes?”

“I have all authority over it.”

“…yeah?”

The sin of going against the planting properly.

Even three highs and lows will not be enough.

.

.

.

a few hours after that.

The world turned upside down once again.

“…is this a true story. This video?!”

As Taemin Nam said.
