Chapter 163 – Revenge (1)

Editor: Ana_Banana
The 10th day after Isaac Ivanov successfully cleared the Hatchling Dungeon.
[Isaac Ivanov is still unconscious!]
[A wave of encouragement is sent from all over the world!]
Isaac Ivanov, who was still unconscious, received a tremendous amount of support and encouragement from the rest of the world.
At the same time, as though they were competing, those who had claimed they would take revenge for Isaac Ivanov, began showing their support.
[The Frontier Guild promises to give Isaac Ivanov their full support!]
[The Kunlun Guild elects Isaac Ivanov as a new hero!]
[Lee Se-jun personally delivers a letter of encouragement to Isaac Ivanov!]
The large guilds, including the top five guilds, began giving their support to Isaac Ivanov, who had created a miracle that no one thought possible.
-Why isn’t the Great One Guild saying anything? Weren’t they the first ones to say that if Isaac Ivanov dies, they would challenge the Hatchling dungeon to take revenge?
-Did they say that just because they wanted to claim Isaac Ivanov’s items?
?Hey, no way. Those bastards!
? Did the Great One Guild, one of the two prides of America, really say that they would take revenge just for that reason?
? The Great One Guild has to give a huge amount of support to show that that’s not true!
However, most of them were forced to do so by public opinion.
Of course, there were some who weren’t.
-What’s Isaac’s current condition?
Park Yong-wan was sincerely worried about Isaac Ivanov’s situation more than anyone else.
-How serious is it?
“I don’t know the details. They haven’t given me any information.”
-Find out what’s going on, by any means!
Considering the fact that Park Yong-wan was the man who invested the most in Isaac Ivanov and who had the most to gain from Isaac Ivanov, his sincere concern was expected.
“Yes.”
-I’ll get you anything you need.
“Yes, I’ll find out what they need.”
From Kim Woo-jin’s perspective, he was grateful to Park Yong-wan for his ever present care.
“Then I will stay in Japan for now.”
-That’s more like it.
“But I don’t have any money on hand right now. I’d really appreciate it if you could support my stay.”
Of course, he wouldn’t miss the chance to make some money.
Above all, Kim Woo-jin knew.
-…there’s a broker I know in Japan, so you can go through him.
‘Of course there is.’
That Park Yong-wan did not have an influence in Japan.
In fact, Kim Woo-jin knew that Park Yong-wan’s Japanese contact was none other than Hayashi Konsuke, a broker.
‘After all, selling your country didn’t happen in a day.’
Moreover, since he was willing to sell out the government to Japan before Kim Woo-jin returned to the past, it meant that Park Yong-wan’s connection to Japan was not simple.
‘It was also the biggest reason why the Messiah Guild and Yamato Federation consider Park Yong-wan their enemy.’
This was also one of the reasons that the Messiah Guild would get rid of Park Yong-wan without hesitation.
Not only did they think that the information that Park Yong-wan had in Japan was enough to threaten them, it was there that they’d first tried to take advantage of Park Yong-wan.
For them, Park Yong-wan was a clear risk factor.
-I’ll give you the broker’s contact information.
It was truly unfair for Park Yong-wan, who was unaware of this fact.
“If you don’t have one already, it would be best to use a code of some sort.”
-Password? You can decide it yourself.
“I think ‘Patriotic Martyrdom’ would do.”
-Patriotic Martyrdom…okay, I’ll pass it on to the broker.
Of course, that wasn’t what was important to Kim Woo-jin.
‘I’m sure this is enough information for the eavesdroppers.’
There were people eavesdropping on their conversation.
“Thank you.”
The conversation ended there.
…
Park Yong-wan’s status and influence in Korea were quite significant.
To exaggerate a bit, Park Yong-wan has enough influence to arrange a meeting with the president.
However, the thing that was truly surprising, was the fact that Park Yong-wan’s status abroad was even greater than that in Korea.
Abroad, the evaluation of Park Yong-wan was very high.
The reason, of course, was the Messiah Guild.
It would be strange if Park Yong-wan, who almost single-handedly raised the status of the Phoenix Guild by following the footsteps of the Messiah Guild, was low.
This was why the Japanese broker would not hold back when taking care of Park Yong-wan’s aide.
Thanks to this, after contacting the broker, Kim Woo-jin was spending the day in a manner that was befitting to call the ‘ultimate luxury’.
“Dammit. Someone’s eating a 50,000 yen menu at an expensive sushi bar while someone else has to eat at a convenience store.”
This was also the reason why Lee Jin-ah, who was also waiting in Japan, couldn’t help but open his mouth.
“It’s so damn annoying.”
Considering Lee Jin’ah’s personality, one where he would even risk his life for food, watching Kim Woo-jin enjoy such an expensive meal was no different from torture.
-Hey Jin-ah.
Oh Se-chan, who could hear his complaints from over the phone, couldn’t help but ask in a dumbfounded tone.
-Didn’t you spend over 70,000 yen eating in the convenience store yesterday?
“Yes?”
-What could you find to eat in a convenience store that added up to 70,000 yen huh? I can’t even imagine it. And it was just one meal too, not even a full day’s worth.
“D-, did I eat so much? I just picked out the things that looked delicious and ate them…”
As he said this, Lee Jin-ah pouted a bit.
“Hey, Japanese prices are ridiculous. I just had a few snacks and it already came up to 70,000 yen.”
-Jin-ah.
“Yes?”
-If the expenses were coming out of my pocket, I would’ve already gotten rid of you.
“Ah, hyung, that joke was a bit too harsh…”
-I meant it.
As he heard those words, Lee Jin-ah shivered slightly as he could hear the sincerity in Oh Se-chan’s voice, and quickly changed the subject.
“How much longer do we have to stay here? We can’t stay here forever can we?”
Oh Se-chan replied to his question simply.
-It shouldn’t be much longer. We’ve already fed them enough so they should make an offer soon.
“What offer?”
-They will make a run of the mill offer like requesting assistance in retrieving the items from a player who died in a dungeon.
Lee Jin-ah clicked his tongue when he heard that.
“Isn’t that too obvious though?”
-It’s a classic, even if it’s obvious. And it always works. ‘This dungeon boss is a Succubus, would you like to help us clear it?’ Or they will ask something like this next.
“Are there any Succubus dungeons?”
Oh Se-chan snorted when Lee Jin-ah asked this question.
-Why? Are you interested?
“Hyung, I’m Lee Jin-ah, a man. If there’s a dungeon like that of course you have to let me know first.”
-Well, the Succubus would probably commit suicide immediately after seeing you anyway, so it shouldn’t be too much of a problem. I’ll tell you if there is one.
“Hey, really.”
It was then.
“At least I still have hair!”
-Hair? You bastard, don’t go anywhere! I’m going to get a barber and shave off all of your damn hair!
Just as the two’s conversation descended into the usual comedy.
“There’s a signal from Kim Woo-jin.”
The story, which had paused for a moment, could finally continue.
