The Player Hides His Past - Chapter 5

Episode 5. Demon Hunter (2)

Indeed, he is a freelancer.

The sun did not set even though I came home from work.

It is an opportunity for photosynthesis that could not be enjoyed during the salaryman days.

In my mind, I wanted to jump right into the sunlit bed.

Tak—

I neatly hung the clothes I was wearing on a hanger.

That’s not enough, so I went straight to the bathroom.

turned on the shower

Shoot ah-!

The rules and rules of the fucking nobility!

It’s even more annoying that I’m slowly getting used to this tiring daily life.

Let’s think good though.

It was definitely a good thing that cleaning didn’t feel boring.

“It is dusty.”

…No matter how much it was, it felt unusual to clean up wearing a mask even inside the house.

After the cleaning was finished, the sun went down.

‘Yeah, what is photosynthesis in my arms?’

Dinner was ready right away.

I was no longer able to make a rough meal with delivery food or convenience food.

Fresh ingredients arrived by early morning delivery.

Dishes prepared with skillful skill.

How can a noble be so good at cleaning and cooking?

If you ask me, Grandfel was a fallen aristocrat.

“Not bad.”

This is also a setting that I learned to eat and live.

Naturally, Grandfel’s lofty pride was not dampened by something like getting water on his hands.

For me, it’s annoying, but I’m grateful.

‘Anyway, making it and eating it wouldn’t be better for the body.’

In fact, I feel the effects of a moderate life with my body.

Including the back pain that disappeared thanks to always standing upright.

Chronic fatigue, insomnia, trivial diseases that modern people live with have also disappeared.

Of course, there are not only good things.

When I looked in the mirror, my hair glowed in the fluorescent light.

‘If anyone sees it, they’ll think it’s gray.’

Silver hair passed down from generation to generation in the Cloudy family.

According to the setting, my hair was bleaching silver.

The only good thing is that the silver hair looks pretty good with the current look.

Swallowing—

I had a tea time after brewing green tea.

‘It’s yunan with green tea that costs 50 won per one. really.’

Even thinking about it, I didn’t care at all.

Because I’ve learned how to enjoy tea and relax over the past few days.

This must also be the effect of Grandfell’s lofty self-esteem.

‘Yeah, whatever it is, it’s better than the habit of sitting in front of the computer right after eating.’

Thanks to that, I had more time to think.

Is that why?

I was able to come up with a pretty plausible possibility.

“…The dark history affects me in reality.”

One by one, every time I became aware of the settings of Grandfel, they became reality.

If so, wouldn’t the ‘talent’ of Grandfel, who was praised as the greatest genius in the history of the Cloudy family, come true?

『Granfell’s talent was not limited to one thing.

A clear mind is fundamental.

His innate magical talent was such that he could imitate most magic just by looking at it. Furthermore, to the potential of the body that is not inferior to him.

There was a good reason why Grandfel was chosen as the heir to the family at the age of only 7.

”

Didn’t you just beat up all the good things and the cool things?

“I am very ashamed.”

I muttered like that.

Maybe it’s because I’m ashamed of my black history.

Maybe it’s because I’m ashamed of excessive praise.

That’s something you’ll find out later when you check it out.

To do so, several tests were required.

“It’s a convenient time.”

Access Nettube with your smartphone.

I searched for videos of players.

It’s not for nothing that there are more people out there.

Channels of players with millions of subscribers came to mind.

-Crack attack play-by-play 1 7 ─ Griffin’s Nest

-What skill does the Flame Wizard use?

-What is a day like for a non-combat class alchemist? Like every Vlog,

the number of views was staggering.

I got it.

Ordinary people can’t even notice the existence of the rift, let alone approach it.

It is only natural that players in the rift hunting monsters would be interested.

Of course, when the rift collapses, you can watch it in reality.

If that happened, it would be a disaster, but it could no longer be a spectacle.

I chose one suitable video.

“?”

As I was about to play it, a message came flying.

When I checked the number, it was Nam Cheol-min.

We never exchanged numbers, but I contacted Nam Chul-min first after reading the job offer.

He must have had my number.

…what words are so long?

To sum up the long message, it was about wanting to meet.

If that doesn’t happen right away, even tomorrow.

The purpose of this is unknown, but it is difficult.

“It is a task that requires concentration.”

I’m sorry.

Because this might change my player life.

I replied briefly and then played the video.

A boss raid video full of skills and magic.

For a while.

I opened my mouth while watching the video with an upright posture.

“That should be enough.”

*

High-end restaurant in Cheongdam-dong.

Chulmin Nam and Taemin Nam.

The brother was waiting at the meeting place.

“I am still dubious.”

“You half believe me? ugly brother? Thank you.”

“Will you keep saying that?”

Nam Cheol-min burst into laughter when Nam Tae-min got angry.

‘Why didn’t I know then.’

Proud younger brother Taemin.

“Everyone’s talent is different. I was just playing the game ignorantly. He just didn’t have enough time to play. My older brother must be quicker than me when it comes to knowledge of arcana? I bet you.”

The fact that such a guy is sincerely acknowledging himself.

Do you have an inferiority complex towards a younger brother like this?

Nam Cheol-min was truly ashamed of his foolishness.

“It’s a joke. joke.”

“Should I believe that he is such an incomprehensible nobleman…”

“Still, I won’t say a word with my mouth. I’ll do it right, Analyst.”

“Can I record that?”

“That’s it.”

“Haa, do you really believe in this?”

Nam Cheol-min decided to quit being a player.

I was thinking of accepting Nam Tae-min’s suggestion and working as the guild’s analyst.

That decision was naturally made thanks to the experience of being possessed by an imp.

‘I knew my shortcomings long ago. Rather than that.’

The man who saved me from despair.

There was no other way to return the favor to him.

He didn’t just defeat the imp.

Take heart and move on.

It was he who saved himself.

Nam Cheol-min also wanted to repay him.

“At this point, I am curious. You’re not going to misunderstand the player… You mean you hunted real imps? Overwhelming?”

Nam Cheol-min nodded at Nam Tae-min’s question.

“In fact, it is not enough to say that it is overwhelming. What should I say? Even during the fight with that imp, he didn’t seem to be nervous at all, let alone any abnormal conditions.”

“If it is my brother, then it must be so. But don’t you understand?”

Taemin Nam scratched the back of his head in frustration.

“Why did such a player enter the low-level rift?”

The reason was simple.

At that time, Hoyeol’s level was only 55.

However, Nam Tae-min and Nam Chul-min could not notice that fact.

Nam Tae-min frowned and continued.

“Besides, that battle is honestly questionable. Resisting a status abnormality means that the mental strength stat is enormous… I heard that he fought with a dagger? It’s not magic.”

“that’s right.”

“There are thousands of classes in Arcana, but I can’t guess.”

Shaking my head.

Nam Tae-min shook his head.

However, the frustration and possibility were two different things.

“…So you definitely want to recruit them and find out?”

Above all, wasn’t he a player his brother recognized?

Nam Tae-min was able to become the 11th ranked player, thanks to Nam Chul-min’s help.

From the boss’s pattern analysis.

direction of the guild.

Even the recruitment of new players.

He knew very well that he would not have been able to reach this position without his brother’s help.

“What a great feeling of gratitude.”

Besides, he helped me like that.

So Taemin Nam wrote the recruitment contract with such gratitude.

Looking at the contract again, Nam Tae-min clicked his tongue.

“We should never let our new recruits or executives see it.”

“why? Is it enough to make a fuss when you see it?”

“of course. This is a business that only loses money on our side.”

But that would be an offer I couldn’t refuse.

Nam Tae-min was confident.

So I waited patiently for a reply.

Giying—

“The reply came right away. what?”

Even at the moment when the vibration sounded.

Nam Tae-min calmly drank the orange juice.

“…is it difficult?”

“?!”

The juice flowed from Nam Tae-min’s mouth

.

“what what what?! Look where you are!!”

I couldn’t believe it, so I checked the text directly, and it was even more spectacle.

-It is difficult.

It was just four letters.

It was a reply to that long text message.

But who is Nam Tae-min?

He caught a hint in that short text.

“…It’s not rejection, it’s trouble.”

His eyes narrowed.

“Did you receive an offer from another guild first?”

There are many players, but valuable players are precious.

This was the reason why the guilds were frantic about recruiting rookies.

Above all, it has become more difficult to recruit players with the potential to succeed in Korea.

The [Wizard’s Tower] has risen in Seoul.

Thanks to that, all the big guilds that were said to be in the middle of the day were staying in Seoul.

Nam Tae-min’s narrowed eyes were directed at the rivals.

“These bastards. No matter what, Seoul is our home.”

Korea’s best guild ‘Gaon’.

However, when it comes to the world, it is difficult to place it in the top five.

Nam Tae-min was well aware of that reality.

That’s why even a single player couldn’t be taken away.

“Hyung, tell me something specific.”

“what?”

“What did that man look like? It’s because I feel like I’ll have to run and bring it myself if it’s necessary.”

“What do you look like…”

At that, Cheol-Min Nam recalled the man in his memory.

A dress shirt, slacks, and even shoes because that wasn’t enough.

“My first impression was that there was something like this.”

I wore the item properly in the rift, but…

Wasn’t it an inappropriate outfit to have come to attack the rift from anyone’s point of view?

Besides, the shoes were still worn all the way.

However, in the crack, the man was not disturbed in the slightest.

The moment when they get entangled with Knoll and engage in hand-to-hand combat.

The moment you fell into a trap and were surrounded.

Even when facing an imp.

There was no change in the man.

all that.

It was as if he was looking down from a high place.

“…But it’s hard to put it into words.”

Nam Tae-min asked Nam Chul-min, who was struggling.

“Have you seen any fantastic creatures? Why can’t you explain?”

…a fantasy animal?

I was suddenly reminded of that sound.

“…okay!”

I’ve never seen it because it didn’t exist in Korea in the present era…. There can’t be a word that can adequately describe the man’s appearance.

“It was like a nobleman. That was also very noble.”

“…Eh?”

*

“That should be enough.”

It was a story about possibilities.

As I stared at the video, thoughts rushed through my head.

It wasn’t a primitive feeling like being cool or envious.

I was looking at magic and ‘analyzing’ it.

“!”

The idea of magic came into my mind.

In fact, that would be nonsense.

At its root, it was a skill, not magic.

But it seemed to me.

The certainty that that magic can be manifested if enough magic power is met to support it…!

Of course, that wasn’t Lee Ho-yeol’s talent.

“Looks like you haven’t hardened your head yet.”

The greatest genius in the history of the Cloudy family.

Grandfell’s talent was obvious.

Of course, it is still too early to conclude.

However, seeing the potential, it is well worth the investment.

Besides, the possibility was open to many places.

Not only magic, but also swordsmanship and archery…

Because Grandfell’s talent wasn’t just expressed in one place.

Hoyeol Lee of the past.

Yes, if you’re going to set it up, you have to hit all the cool and good things.

Isn’t it the same as being embarrassed anyway?

Be confident in front of black history.

I knew the possibilities were ample, but there was no need to rush.

Swordsmanship, archery, magic…

There would be no particular benefit in deciding on a career path right away.

It was because of the vague characteristics of the demon hunter class.

However, the word ambiguous wasn’t necessarily something that was said only when everything was a weakness.

Yes, even when everything is an advantage, you can say that it is ambiguous, right?

Even if that’s not the case, it’s better to keep all possibilities open for now.

“then.”

Let’s slowly invest the saved stat points.

[Possessed points: 12 points]

I checked the status window.
