Only I Level Up: Ragnarok - Episode 136
Only I Level Up: Ragnarok Episode 136
From now on, it was a real game..
Ajin Soft's legal team led by Yoo Jin-ho and the Scavenger Guild's legal team led by Laura.
They used all the skills they had honed and exchanged numerous documents and argued fiercely for a long time..
The scene was a series of tense tensions without any compromise, reminiscent of a war between hunters and demonic beasts..
And finally, the outcome of the game was decided..
“It's Suho. It was decided to split the profits exactly 5 to 5, with net profits split in half..”
Yu Jin-ho appeared before Su-ho triumphantly, like a triumphant general returning from a war..
“Instead of investing all of the money to purchase the exclusive rights to the Glacier Dungeon, the Scavenger Guild decided to handle all matters related to the spring water in the Echo Forest, including supply, management, distribution, and sales..”
In fact, this was the part that Suho first requested from Jinho Yoo..
In any case, Suho did not have employees who could be entrusted with handling such matters..
Above all, while I was busy leveling up, I didn't want to be distracted by such business matters..
Suho nodded and asked.
“Good for you. So what do I care about??”
“you? All you have to do is sit back and take the deposit..”
It was Yoo Jin-ho who narrowed one eye in response to Su-ho’s question..
“Don't worry, there's nothing for you to worry about. We have decided to assign employees of our company to monitor and supervise people to prevent them from messing around with distribution volume or settlement during the work process..”
In fact, this was a large concession..
In short, Suho had a monopoly on the spring water of Echo Forest..
On the other hand, the Scavenger Guild was a strict group that could not obtain even a single drop of spring water without a guardian..
Of course, for this to be possible, Suho had to first purchase the exclusive rights to the dungeon from Facade Island, where the Glacier Dungeon is located, and then take responsibility for the safety of the people of Facade by thoroughly managing the dungeon..
However, since the Scavenger Guild decided to take over the management of the dungeon, Suho really had nothing to do..
Moreover, Jinho Yoo decided to provide the money to purchase the exclusive rights to the Glacier Dungeon..
In other words, Ajin Soft gave a large amount of investment money to an individual named Seong Su-ho..
And in order to supervise how the investment money is spent, Ajin Soft had the right to monitor all of Scavenger's work..
Suho, who was listening to Yoo Jin-ho's explanation, suddenly saw Laura sighing tiredly in the distance..
‘……It's really awful..’
Through this incident, Laura was able to experience the notoriety of CEO Yoo Jin-ho, who is famous in the industry..
The process was long and arduous, but in the end, it all resulted in the 50% that CEO Yoo Jin-ho wanted from the beginning..
In the process, Scavenger had no choice but to grant him everything he wanted..
‘I was literally robbed. Is this Eul’s position?.’
Even though the Scavenger Guild was the largest hunter guild in the United States, its name was a word commonly used only among the same hunters..
In the first place, Yoo Jin-ho's Ajin Soft was not a hunter guild, but a completely different business, so there was no fear of future repercussions or difficulties due to this incident..
On the contrary, since he was the majority shareholder of the Scavenger Guild, he had no choice but to unilaterally get kicked out of the real sword battle where A and B were decided from the beginning..
‘but… … The problem is that the conditions are not bad for us at all. No, it's actually too good.’
Laura's shaking gaze rested on Yoo Jin-ho, who was smiling brightly next to Su-ho and Cha Hae-in..
The reason why Scavenger had no choice but to accept all these one-sided conditions.
It was because of the sweetest proposal presented by Yoo Jin-ho..
‘All you have to do is list Scavenger's name as the distributor of Echo Forest's spring water. If this happens, Scavenger's brand value among hunters will at least double..’
The brand value of a guild was not something that could be easily raised simply by having a lot of money or strength..
The question was how much of a positive influence the guild could have on the hunter world..
‘In the end, I ended up playing the guy the way he wanted, but it doesn't feel that bad..’
Is this the CEO of iron-blooded businessman Yoo Jin-ho?.
Laura sighed softly, remembering the meaning of the name again..
Then I approached Suho again and spoke to him..
“Hunter Seong Su-ho.”
When Suho, who was talking with his mother, turned around, Laura raised her glasses and continued speaking..
“Now that the business matters are over, Thomas André's personal matters remain..”
“It's personal.?”
“Our Master said that he received a lot of help in many ways from Hunter Seong Su-ho and Hunter Seong Su-ho's mother, and would like to express his gratitude. If you want anything please let me know.”
“Oh, that's okay. Because thanks to you, I was able to find her mother..”
Suho politely declined..
Although it was at Thomas Andre's request that I entered the Glacier Dungeon, it led to a dramatic reunion with my mother, who had been missing for several years..
Rather, the person who should be thankful was Suho himself..
But Laura also had no intention of backing down..
Laura was Thomas Andre's secretary for decades..
So I knew very well how long he had been living with terrible nightmares and anxiety..
The reason you came to this difficult glacier dungeon was also because of Norma Sellner's advice that there was a way to overcome it in the glacier dungeon..
-Thomas, if you conquer the Glacier Dungeon, you will be able to escape the nightmare. However, there is a hunter named Seong Su-ho in Korea.…….
But it seems that the prophecy finally came true..
When she saw the expression on Thomas Andre's face, giggling as he tormented his subordinates with brutal force, a smile appeared on Laura's lips..
“……Our master is a very competitive person, so if he feels he owes him something, he can't bear it without paying back. It doesn't matter what it is, can you tell me? This is also my personal expression of gratitude..”
Suho looked embarrassed at Laura's repeated requests..
I thought it wasn't polite to refuse when people came out like this..
But the problem is.
‘I don't need much.’
I also found my mother.
Thanks to the Glacier Dungeon, I was now able to make a lot of money..
When I suddenly asked him what he wanted, nothing came to mind..
‘for a moment.’
At that moment, something crossed Suho’s mind..
“If that's the case, could you give me some high-grade magic stones??”
“A high-level magic stone? Of course it is possible. how much do you need?”
“the more the better.”
“The more the better…….”
Laura thought about Suho’s request for a moment and nodded willingly..
“All right. However, since the quantity of high-grade magic stones is very limited, it may take some time to obtain them. Would you mind??”
“of course.”
It was a fact that Suho was well aware of..
Since it had only been two years since the cataclysm occurred, it was natural that the quantity of high-grade magic stones was low..
Moreover, since there were so many companies that wanted such items for hunters' equipment or in the scientific community, it was not easy for an ordinary hunter like Suho to obtain them..
However, if you are a large guild scavenger, you can get it with a little effort..
After getting an answer from Suho, Laura returned with a satisfied face..
Cha Hae-in asked with a puzzled expression..
“Magic stone? Shouldn’t you have asked for a usable weapon instead?.”
“It's a useful weapon. This time you saw Thomas Andre surprised by her mother's sword..”
Suho’s judgment was accurate..
It was still unreasonable to expect useful items from the Scavenger Guild..
Even if weapons development began immediately upon returning to the United States, it would take a considerable amount of time to create a usable weapon..
“Then why is the magic gemstone?”
“I'm going to feed it to Ber..”
“ber?”
“yes. Berdo's strength is running out.…….”
[Kieeeeek-!]
Cheolpuk!
“…….”
Even before Suho finished speaking, Ver, who felt extremely moved, clung to Suho's face and burst into tears..
[Hehehe! You are thinking of me so much! After all, there is no one but our small lord! It was rewarding to raise him by carrying him on my back and washing his poopy diapers.!]
“poop base…….”
In contrast to Suho, who had a shit-chewing expression on his face, Cha Hae-in, who was next to him, couldn't help but smile..
It's not an exaggeration, it's really like that.
Anyway, Suho was planning to feed Berr all the advanced magic stones he got from Scavenger to replenish his strength..
Meanwhile, Ver was following Suho and recovering his magic power by feasting on magic beasts and magic stones in the mine, but the amount of recovery was very poor..
The reason is fundamentally because Ber's original power was far too high, so no matter how much he consumed, it was just pouring water into a bottomless poison..
However, if you feed Ver with a high-grade magic stone, wouldn't the missing strength be replenished a little more quickly?.
* * *
After finishing all the talk with the Scavenger Guild, Su-ho and Cha Hae-in entered the Glacier Dungeon again and stood side by side in front of the gate leading to the deep part of the Echo Forest and the Tomb of the Wild Dragons.
Wow!.
An ominous gate with gray ash flowing out..
Cha Hae-in passed that place with Sirka and suddenly looked back at Su-ho..
“Then I'll come back.”
“Yes, mother. Carefully… … Have a nice trip.”
Suho somehow felt solemn and lowered his head..
It was a shame to break up, but as my mother said, I had things to do on my own..
First, until my mother restores Kaisel's power within me and returns.…….
‘Stay here and level up.’
And at least I would become stronger than my mother before she came back..
‘……I found out for sure after this incident. how weak i am.’
After watching the battle of Cha Hae-in, a completed S-class hunter, Su-ho had a clear goal..
In order to help your father, you must first become stronger than your mother..
Moreover, this incident made me realize one more important thing..
‘Ber always said.’
He said his father always fought alone..
In a place no one remembers.
I have always been fighting such a lonely battle alone..
But not anymore.
‘now i have.’
My father was no longer alone..
‘And, there we are..’
This time, Suho realized the truth..
I know that I am not the only one who wants to help my father who is fighting alone..
mother.
Uncle Yoo Jin-ho.
thomas andre.
In addition, we are going to meet President Woo Jin-cheol of the association..
Of course, all of this may not have enough power to help my father, who is fighting enemies from outer space far away on high..
Because these people were not hunters who grew by leveling up like themselves..
But that heart.
‘same. As much as my son.’
Everyone was working hard in their own way and in their own position to be of strength to their father, Seong Jin-woo..
“……therefore.”
Suho's eyes lit up as he looked up at the endless sky..
‘Please wait a moment. father.’
I'll be there soon.
I thoroughly prepared things that could be of help to my father..
Suho watched for a long time until his mother's figure disappeared completely beyond the gate..
and.
“ber.”
[yes.]
I turned around with Ber and calmly opened my mouth..
“Let's go back. to Korea.”
