Return of the Archmage

Chapter 74

7.

The meeting was held.

“What should I do?”

“I heard you asked for it. It would simply be a bluff to increase the settlement rate.”

Meeting about Lee Hye-sung and Kang In-ho.

The final decision will eventually go up to the president, but executives at the user management headquarters should decide whether to raise the approval or not.

“But it’s not something to ignore.”

The head of the user management team who met Lee Hye-sung in person sighs and carefully persuades him.

I can’t help it.

Others get angry and angry when they hear it across the bridge, but he can feel it when he hears it from Lee Hye-sung himself.

“I didn’t mean to change my membership to China. That’s what I felt.”

“Then do you have anything else to say? You have to ignore it and show it to them. The cost of underestimating user management headquarters!”

Shake your head at the other team leader’s words.

“Would you like to do it yourself?”

“…he is.”

It’s nonsense.

That is the location of the user management headquarters.

Of course, you can retaliate if you want to.

The power of the state is that powerful.

However, if you are a ranker like Kang In-ho, your words are different.

“And it wasn’t that there wasn’t much, it wasn’t at all.”

“What do you mean?”

Above all, the team leader felt cool when he changed his position.

“China now hates Lee Hye-sung user a lot. It’s enough to intentionally persecute our users within the event crack. China is doing favor to Lee Hye-sung user. No matter how much the contract is, they’re giving up a lot of things and talking about it after the deal.”

With that coolness, no one was making a fuss when he was immature enough to mistake the power of the state institution for his power.

“China, which knows the land and value of the recovery area, has promised to sell as much as it wants to Lee Hye-sung users, and is not taxing all by-products from cracks within the contract period. After that? Now that the deal’s over, you’re gonna kick him out or kill him because he’”

Because I realized the seriousness of the situation.

The cases are only slightly different, but objectively, it is a case of leakage of users.

If it were a general user or a half-ranker, it wouldn’t have been this serious.

In an era where users’ borders disappeared, they are free to change their affiliations at will, making fun of the country that makes love calls by pouring out these ridiculous benefits. Yes, if they have to take it at a loss.

What should I do?

While everyone was silent, the head of the user management team came and came up with the solution that they had thought of.

“You have to listen.”

“…but!”

Of course a solution requires a lot of price.

“Many users will protest. Right now, just the big guilds…….”

“Right, the moment you give some perks, you’ll all show action. Some of you might actually see it.”

Then there will be no place to promise them the benefits of Lee Hye-sung and make a love call.

Nevertheless, complaints arise.

You have to figure it out.

“So I thought.”

Officials nodded as they listened to the solution.

I realized it while listening to the user management team leader.

“The important thing is that if we lose Kang In-ho and Lee Hye-sung users, we have to deal with the anger of the entire nation.”

What’s the creepiest thing about it.

Just imagining it makes my whole body shudder.

Kang In-ho, even though it is the case, Lee Hye-sung’s popularity is sky-high.

There are rumors that the user community might take it away because of his activities in China. If he really misses it.

“It’s not a stupid government institution that we’ve built over the decades. The title of the User Management Headquarters will be replaced by pathetic people losing their rank to China, which is going bankrupt overnight.”

That should never happen.

Everyone nodded their heads.

***

I got a call.

“He said he’d listen. Instead, we’ll tie it up on a full-time contract and add a couple of the details.”

He nods his head, satisfied with the contact he received in a day.

“It’s very different from 30 years ago. It’s become a very good country.”

Had it not been for Kang In-ho, he could not have come this far so comfortably.

No matter how much Lee Hye-sung shows great growth, that’s all.

Seeing him makes it easier for us to communicate with him.

“Whatever you want, you’ve accomplished it, so that’s enough.”

“Then are you going to enter the country now?”

“What? No. Why?”

Still, continuing push and pull is a must.

I didn’t force myself to do it, but I didn’t intend to enter the country right away.

“It’s nice here, too. The food is good, too.”

It’s natural that the chef of the luxury hotel pays attention to making it.

“If there is a crack, there will be Chinese cracks and Korean cracks and the same monsters, but there will be a contract period. You don’t have to make the Chinese nervous when they’re barely comforting and eating.”

He nods his head.

Despite the nodding and questioning.

“But why the hell are you taking me into a crack? It’s a level 5 crack that doesn’t go up. If you go in and catch everything on your own, without leaving me anything to catch?”

While I’m in doubt, I ask.

In the weeks since he came to China, he has not raised his experience by a single inch.

I thought there might be a reason, but you didn’t tell me.

“What?”

However, the return response overshadowed Kang’s concerns.

“Didn’t you follow me out of boredom?”

“……Huh?”

“I thought it was just natural to follow. I’m afraid I’ll be embarrassed to crack alone in unfamiliar Chinese land, or I’ll be embarrassed to crack in Korea or I’ll feel uncomfortable.”

“…….”

“I guess not. Then why are you following me around?”

He even asks back.

What should I say?

“Or, well, I’m working on a crack while I’m raising my level. I heard a level 7 crack brake could be level 8 or higher if it’s contaminated.”

“That’s right.”

In addition to the question that ends uncomfortably, he sighs in an opaque future.

Lee Hye-sung took it confidently and confidently, but it is actually quite dangerous.

Restoration of contaminated areas.

Harder than crack brakes.

There is no reason why it cannot recover 6-level contaminated areas.

Even level 5 has only recently been recovered one by one.

No wonder you don’t have confidence.

There will be variables that are different from cracking.

So we need another way.

Instead of subduing monsters with simple force.

“So I’m going to try that, would you like to follow me?”

“……Huh?”

“If you want to crack it, go ahead.”

“I want to go!”

After laughing, Lee Hye-sung and Kang In-ho will follow along.

What’s the way?

It is a secret to recover 7-level contaminated areas in two months.

I was curious.

“I feel sorry for you, too. Cheer up.”

Ariel patted him on the back and kicked his tongue.

8.

[It absorbs the soul.][Leaving level (1) up]][The one who absorbs the soul]

▶ Grade: SS

▶ Content: A man who plunders souls beyond the flesh. It absorbs everything.

▶ Effect: When shooting an enemy, collect the soul with a certain probability. It absorbs and digests the soul in proportion to the level of looting.

▶ Current Level : 2

▶ Level Effect

1.% chance to trigger a “soul predation” effect.

2. Additional possibility of ‘soul suppression’ with (leaving level) % chance

Finally, the level of looting has risen.

Added level 2 effect.

What effect was fully experienced in the event fissure.

“It’s a great skill for timing.”

I have a smile around my mouth.

Soul suppression.

Words from Soul Domination.

If you can control the soul, you can control the other soul.

It may not be possible to share through perfect control like Ariel, but this effect is very helpful in controlling and communicating with the other party, such as timing.

In fact, at the end of the event crack, the loot level effect of reaching level 10 made it easier to tame the dragon.

Above all, Lee Hye-sung’s timing method and level 2 effect create synergy.

“Oops!”

“Be my pet.”

“Boo!”

“What? You don’t like it? Then you’re dead. You punk!”

“Growl! Growl!”

[Timing succeeded]

Teaming-related achievements are also coming up one by one.

Taming through pressure close to the other person’s conformity.

In fact, it is a way that fantasy-level tamer would not recommend, but it is also the best way for Lee Hye-sung, who learned from Dragon Road Sage.

Anyway, if you can control it completely, overpowering is the most efficient way to lead power or organization.

Instead of catching monsters that meet at level 5 crack, Lee Hyesung started to tame.

Kang In-ho, who saw a group of monsters following in various shapes at the end of the crack, was amazed.

“Wow.”

What should I say?

This feeling.

“Very villainous.”

They’re monsters that always kill.

If you poke it, blood flows in different colors, and some monsters attack even if their necks fall halfway off.

I’ve never imagined a day when I was on the same side with monsters that I couldn’t imagine.

“I feel like a villain.”

That’s very original.

For Kang In-ho, level 5 crack monsters are novel and scary even though they are not that threatened.

Monsters who don’t attack, just stare gently.

Lee Hye-sung’s pet ready to bite each other with a single command!

“Well, soul looters are a very good class. I thought there would be many cases where I failed because I’m still not used to it.”

I don’t know about Mana, but the timing is communion.

The spirit’spirit’s the spirit.

The process of recognizing the difference in class.

Add to that the system’s probability, and it shines more than just a 2% effect.

As you get used to this body and increase your mana, you will be able to tame higher levels of monsters more easily and reliably.

“Did you check?”

“Yes, I’ve got a rough estimate.”

“But why did you do the timing?”

Qiu told Kang In-ho as if it was natural.

“Level 7 recovery area.”

“Yes.”

“The concept is yesterday’s colleague is today’s enemy.”

“……?”

“It’s a little hard for us to handle alone. At least the local monsters should fight together.”

I command the monsters with him.

Pointing to the exit.

“Get out.”

Monsters throwing themselves at the exit gate without losing a word.

When all disappeared and escaped through the exit, the bodies that were all out of breath came into view.

“I guess it doesn’t work this way.”

It was an opportunity to increase the use of the timing.

He smacked his lips with disappointment behind him.

But it didn’t matter.

“We’ll have to raise the level for the rest of the time and make it to level four.”

The most difficult mission.

I’ve got a clue to the solution.

============================ Review of the work ============================

Episode 75 will be composed of three books.

From the start of 76 (volume 4), it will be a normal episode, so please refer to it for your readers!

Foreign books consist of one or two episodes at the end of each book, but as we enter during the series, we don’t include contents that are not related to the large stem. Most of them deal with stories at the fantasy level, and if they treat themselves as work at the fantasy level, they take them out as extrapolations.
