Alone Full Level Newbie-Episode 38
38How to grow stagnant water (5)
Is it because Jinhyuk’s voice was too loud??
Even the old man heard that..
Immediately a shout filled with anger broke out..
“What, what? goal… … osteoporosis? Now say that. How dare you do this to my summons?!”
hmm.
Was it too harsh at first meeting??
But what can I do when it looks like that??
It may seem powerful to the average person, but it only looks cute to the eyes of old people..
“Don't just speak out from behind the screen, show up now.!”
Because video calls only show your face to your friends, third parties can only hear your voice..
Of course, conversion to full currency was possible if the parties agreed..
“Is it okay??”
Teresa asked cautiously..
“it's okay. It looks like you contacted me at a very difficult time, so it might be fun..”
Jinhyuk nodded..
[Video call turns into full call.]
With a short message, a man wearing a mask with a strange pattern appeared..
a moment of silence.
And what followed was a huge commotion..
“Oh, that mask!”
“ruins! He's the one who attacked the ruins.!”
“Oh my god. I thought you had no contact with anyone at all, but did you know Teresa personally??”
It was natural for everyone to shout..
A player whose identity is completely hidden behind a mask..
So many people wanted to find it, but the person they had no clue about appeared before their eyes, so it had to be that way..
You have to catch it. faster than anyone else.
That was the common thought of everyone here..
‘Since Teresa is working as a solo artist, there is a high probability that she does not belong to a guild either..’
‘If so, it means that the one who snatches it first is the one who owns it..’
‘Whether it’s coins, items, or money, you have to pour it all out without sparing it..’
‘of course. The level of the guild itself will change completely, so it wouldn't be a waste of anything.?’
‘Maybe this might be your last chance.’
The representatives of each guild swallowed dry saliva..
We looked at each other's thoughts and waited for the right moment to present conditions..
right then.
“That's funny.”
the old man stepped forward.
“okay. I also heard it. I wonder if he is a player who was active in the ruins on the first floor. However, this boss strategy is different from that one..”
In the ruins, each monster was powerful and there were not many of them..
On the other hand, the path to the boss monster on the third floor boasted an overwhelming amount of monsters, despite the low combat power of each monster..
This means that the field is completely different..
“hmm. Are you saying you can? No matter how many enemies there are?”
Jinhyuk scratched the stomach with his index finger..
“okay. Having multiple summons is my specialty..”
Having multiple summons…….
The term “minions” probably refers to the skeletons here.?
I admit that the number is quite high..
But well.
“It would be difficult with that fake cane..”
“What, what??”
“It's half-baked, right? Looking at it, it was combined without the ‘heart of a saint’ and the ‘shroud soaked in holy oil’..”
“that that… girl… … How do you know!?”
How do you know.
“That's because it looks different from the real Staff of Greed. The finished product with all the ingredients has a red gem embedded under the skull on the right. Above all, the quality of the skeleton soldiers is very low..”
“What the finished product looks like... … I've seen it?”
The old man muttered in disbelief..
Judging by the way his chin was shaking, he must have been quite shocked..
“curious? If you want, I can tell you where to find the rest of the ingredients..”
“Really? Where on earth… Big!”
For a moment, the old man almost asked me to tell him without realizing it..
I barely managed to swallow the words that were rising up to my throat..
Because if I uttered even one word here, it would be an admission of defeat..
Jinhyuk, who was watching that scene, chuckled as if he knew that would happen..
After all, an empty cart is noisy..
‘I guess he was planning to extort a share from the guild with plausible words..’
I could clearly see his intentions just by bluffing with a half-cane..
The shallow intention to take coins or items as a down payment and then disappear into hiding..
As the situation progressed strangely, the old man ended up biting his molars..
“good night. For now, let’s take a step back for today. and you. I don't know who it is, but I will definitely pay for this humiliation..”
“and… … That line. This is my first time seeing someone actually do it..”
“……what?”
“No, you're not embarrassed to say it? 'I will definitely repay you for this humiliation.' Even in the 90s, if you used that kind of line in an animation, you would have been beaten by the head of a broadcasting company..”
If he had just disappeared quietly, we wouldn't have had to deal with the dark history..
Anyway, the problem is his poor pride and his mouth..
“You guy…!”
The old man glared at Jinhyeok as if he were going to kill him..
But it only lasted a moment.
Grumpy!
A shadow rose up..
“Next time we meet in person, I'll see if I can be as relaxed as I am now. and… … Everyone here, please keep that in mind. We are the only force with corps-level troops..”
At the same time, the old man's figure was swallowed up in the darkness..
＊＊＊
Inside the banquet hall immersed in silence.
So much had happened in such a short period of time that everyone needed time to face reality..
“I don't mind if I leave it to a clumsy person like that and fail again, but personally, I don't think it's a good option..”
Jinhyuk shrugged his shoulders at Patrick..
“……I know. But we have no other options..”
Why is there no other option??
Jinhyuk opened his mouth again..
“Leave it to me. We will take care of both the justification for not having to join hands with the demons and the practicality of conquering the tower..”
“So, are you saying it’s possible??”
Patrick's pupils dilated rapidly..
Is it possible to attack alone?.
If the opponent wasn't the player who attacked the ruins, he would have thought it was a joke..
Jinhyuk nodded without hesitation..
“it's possible.”
It's possible but.
That's why I'm currently on the first basement floor..
“Well, then how much should I give as a down payment and compensation?…….”
“You don't have to give it to me.”
“yes?”
“Please let me go in alone. If you block off an entire area so other players can't even get there, I won't get paid..”
At Jinhyuk’s words, Patrick opened his mouth like a goldfish..
As if asking, ‘Only under those conditions?’.
“Why on earth do you do that??”
“That's it.”
Jinhyuk glanced at Teresa..
“I'm just trying to do the right thing for humanity and for the sake of my precious colleagues..”
As soon as he spoke, Jinhyuk pinched his thigh with his finger..
Oh shit.
‘Even as I say this, my hands and feet are cringing..’
‘This must have been how the old man felt a little while ago... … I even thought, '.
However, unlike Jinhyeok, the faces of those who heard this remark were colored with an indescribable light..
“…….”
Teresa pursed her lips..
Her dimples twitched as she was told that she was a cherished colleague..
“haha. This is so... … As the representative of the guild, I have nothing to say..”
“awesome.”
“A true hero. We also need to reflect on ourselves..”
“under. I started with the same mindset, but I don't know how it ended up like this..”
admiration and exclamation.
Those representing large guilds even reflected on themselves..
I only said one thing, but they misunderstood it..
‘I guess this is enough for the exterior..’
The reason I refused to accept a down payment was not for the sake of humanity..
It's not even a reason to accommodate the large guild's convenience..
Jinhyuk glanced at the camera on his shoulder..
[All screens and conversations are currently being recorded.]
Players who even give up rewards for humanity.
How much benefit can you get from just this phrase??
I don't know, but it will be several times more than the compensation offered by the guilds..
You fools will just take the down payment..
‘I am not a fool who misses the big things while chasing the small things..’
think about it.
How much is the down payment that guilds in the early stages can give??
At most, one low-grade relic?
Or some coins or cash?
‘You can get things like that if you have time..’
However, the solid position shown to the public and the benefits derived from it... … It was sure to have a huge impact later on..
furthermore.
‘First broadcast feature. If you succeed solo in a raid that everyone else failed in your first debut match,……!’
It's thrilling just to imagine it.
Exciting! Exciting! Exciting!
As if he knew in advance what next week's lotto numbers would be, Jinhyuk's heart began to beat with a pleasant sound..
“and. If I succeed this time, I would like to meet up with everyone sometime and have a meal together..”
“Oh, of course.”
“We are also looking forward to it..”
“I hope that day comes.”
Everyone added one word at a time with an expectant look on their faces..
He looked genuinely happy..
But no matter how fun it is…….
‘……Should I just do it??’
Jinhyuk swallowed his saliva and savored his appetite..
Is this what the spirit world feels like, tap dancing in front of boiling water with ginseng and jujube in its mouth??
‘and! Even if I can only copy the abilities of two or three of the rankers over there,…….’
This is awesome.
＊＊＊
[Video call ended.]
When Jinhyuk disappeared, everyone's eyes turned to Teresa..
It was a bonus to have the eyes of a wolf targeting a flock of sheep..
“Teresa, can you tell me about the man just now??”
“Name, age, nationality. It doesn't matter even if it's something small.”
“Hehe, didn't Europe recruit a new prospect this time? Please make some concessions to us this time..”
“Should someone who easily passed the A level be considered a promising player? I'll give it to you in a truckload if you want, but you can take a step back this time..”
“what? That's what I'm saying now?”
“Oh my goodness. Why are you upset? ah… … but. The person who loses the horse always raises his/her voice..”
“Wow!!”
The place quickly heated up with another topic..
in the middle of it.
Teresa looked troubled and cried..
‘Jinhyuk... … fool.’
I had no idea what to do next..
＊＊＊
‘Things turned out better than I thought..’
Jinhyuk stretched as if he was satisfied..
Thanks to the help of the demons, we were able to attract the attention of large guilds..
By now, everyone is competing and drinking bowls of kimchi soup..
‘hmm. I feel a bit sorry for leaving it to Teresa to take care of the situation.…….’
I should buy you something delicious later or something..
It was then.
“ha. ha. ha. You're going to kill me?”
Ellis, whose face was white, continued to breathe heavily..
Oh right.
I forgot about this guy.
While on a video call with Teresa, I did a bit of straining to deal with the bugs that came up..
Stop them all by myself.
As a result, Ellis had used up all of her remaining magic power and was on the verge of fainting..
“It's okay to see something you can complain about. If I really feel like I'm going to die, I don't even have the strength to speak..”
“So, did you just say that to comfort me? we… … It wasn't a partnership, it was a slave contract.?”
Ellis lowered his head helplessly..
what?
Why are you talking so seriously all of a sudden?.
I feel guilty.
“Tsk! What are you looking at me for? Do you think I just treat you like that? I was already planning to buy ‘horsepower supplement’ from the coin exchange and give it to him..”
I bought the cheapest one, but it doesn't matter since Ellis can't see the coin exchange anyway..
What if you insist that this is the most expensive one? You can't become a player.
however.
“Sorry, but those supplements don't work for me..”
Ellis shook his head..
“what?”
“I said I don't just manipulate you.?”
“Well, I did say that…….”
“Hehehe. don't worry. I will definitely receive the magic power I consumed..”
Ellis smiled brightly..
The sharp molars at the corners of the mouth shined..
I don't feel good for some reason.
For sure.
What I said when I first met this guy…….
‘‘Appetizing’, ‘Blood with a delicious smell’. Yes, it was a sentence with two keywords..
shit. this is dangerous.
Jinhyuk took a few steps back without realizing it..
