How to Survive as a Player Chapter 68

#68

The strength in Ruhak’s arms did not loosen overnight. Every time Sehyun woke up feeling uncomfortable, she was faced with the warmth behind her. The warmth disappeared when I saw the sun rising in the late morning.

As if it had been there just a moment ago, Ruhak’s warmth still remained on the bed. In addition, there are also neglected feathers. When I slowly brushed the spot where he was with his palm, I felt warmth.

In the end, I didn’t hear his answer.

But I knew what he wanted. I realized through yesterday’s conversation that the revival of the empire is only one side, and that there is something else the empire wants. Is that the end?

Transferred game system. A national power that has survived. Plus the position of the king who controls everything.

Suddenly, Sehyun remembered the ‘achievements’ that Billwill had mentioned when he first came to Elix. He opened the management window and searched around, and was able to find the newly created achievement window.

As I clicked in, countless letters and question marks appeared in my field of vision. From those that have already been awakened to those that have not yet been awakened and are marked with a question mark.

Most of the achievements were conquering the Tower of Tests. The achievements of clearing from the 1st floor to the 84th floor were clearly revealed.

Achievements were classified into three categories.

[Strike the Tower of Tests. (84/100)]

[Building an imperial alliance. (3/100)]

[Raising a U-class vassal. (0/1)]

It was the final goal written in the achievement window. In addition, the achievements of training more than 10 L-class retainers were also listed. When I rolled down the window, I saw the final achievement written in large letters at the bottom, ‘???’. It was the only letter painted in red.

It was an inevitable feat as long as the game survived. I don’t know about the penalty if I don’t do it. But the ominous number floating next to the final achievement in red letters made everything uneasy.

Seeing that it passed in seconds, there was a high probability that it was time. Probably the time that has passed since everyone fell here.

Sehyeon immediately got up from his seat. Ruhak was someone who would understand and acknowledge something only if he showed action. First of all, the urgent priority was to expand and repair the village and receive vassals. In addition, the level up and grade improvement of vassals who are about to be promoted.

As I shook off my sore wings and stepped on the ground, the events of last night were forgotten. Sehyun put the food on the table into her inventory and left the room.

***

The first place Se-hyeon visited today was the ‘Empire Training Center’, which was organized as a new department where Kim Gap-jun was located. The players were entrusted to Kim Gap-jun for a few days, and the players wasted their golden time by committing all kinds of atrocities, from small acts of confronting Kim Gap-jun by pretending to be their parents to large-scale refusals to go to class and misbehavior.

Sehyun just watched this. He did not convey any special meaning to Kim Gap-jun. There was no better way to weed out than freedom.

And today was the day that Sehyun received the list of players to be sent out to Kim Gapjun.

The total number of people who entered training was 10. Sehyun didn’t know yet how many of them would be eliminated.

As I passed through the main gate of the training center and headed toward the training center where empire development education was taking place, the first thing I saw was Kim Gap-jun, who was teaching people with enthusiasm.

Sehyeon quietly opened the back door of the training center and went to the instructors’ observation seat and sat down. Kim Gap-Jun, who found Se-Hyeon only too late, widened his eyes, but Se-Hyun brushed it off with a grin.

“That’s the end of today’s training, so let’s all do our business for the remaining time. Oh, Huey and Gong Jae-woo stay for a while and watch me. more!”

The training ended shortly after, despite my observation. As soon as the training was over, Kim Gap-jun ran to where Se-hyeon was, waving his eyebrows. Then he started pointing straight away, and it seemed like there was a lot going on.

“Why is this guy not working and wandering around all day, damn it! “You son of a bitch, why am I making you work like this!”

“You seem very dissatisfied. Why don’t you go talk to our Grand Duke? “I also want to do some work, but the Archduke won’t allow it.”

“No, where did this thing sit with its teeth gritted? And are you in a position to go alone now? “I draw heroes, where do I leave them and go around alone?!”

“Oh, everyone is busy with the summons issued by the Grand Duke. What should I do? So, well, I have to play alone.”

“What, playing?! Wow, my blood pressure! “How did I get involved with these guys, oh my!”

Seeing Kim Gap-jun holding the back of his neck and making loud noises, Se-hyeon only tiptoed his toes. Se-hyeon also had a lot to say, but looking at Kim Gap-jun, who had black under his eyes, it seemed to me that he was a nobleman. He must have been suffering so much that the area under his eyes was trembling.

“No, okay. Be honest. “Is there anything you do?”

“I’m looking for talent and expanding. “My vassals are growing on their own.”

“f*cking hell.”

“Mr. Pithecus, do you think you have a lot of time? “They also neglect those who told them to stay.”

Sehyeon’s eyes turned to the only two men left in the training camp. Someone told me it was a skinny man and a man with both legs amputated and in a wheelchair.

Kim Gap-jun seemed to sigh with a confused expression, and then held out a piece of paper to Se-hyeon. Then he gestured with his chin and explained.

“Everyone but those two.”

“You all have bad personalities.”

In short, they were saying that everyone except those two people had to be cut down. The paper contained personal information about the two people. The name of the person whose leg was amputated is ‘Huey’. He was not Korean, but a mixed-up foreigner. The skinny man’s name was ‘Gong Jae-woo’, and he was Korean.

Considering that both of them said they had no empire, it was clear that they were in a situation where they had nowhere to go.

“Do you think you can stay here?”

“are you okay. I’m worried that Gong Jae-woo’s mind is very unstable… Tsk, considering all that, Huey is a pretty good guy. “He also has a good laugh.”

The opposite, completely. After saying that, Kim Gap-jun turned his back and walked towards Huey and Gong Jae-woo. Sehyun also made a noise and stood up. As Sehyun approached, Gong Jae-woo and Huey’s eyes immediately fell on Sehyun.

As Gapjun Kim said, Huey was in better shape than expected. She looks comfortable and somewhat stable. The problem was Gong Jae-woo. It seemed like he suffered a lot from people’s backlash as he seemed to avoid it as soon as he made eye contact.

“Once you both finish your education, you can find your desired career path. If you want to stay here, you can do so. However, please keep in mind that each of you has a job to attend to if you remain here. “Listen carefully to class.”

“Thank you for your consideration.”

“thanks… do.”

As I looked at Huey smiling brightly, I finally remembered who he was. He was the man who prepared rice balls in the kitchen. He used to give an extra one to Se-hyeon, and he was fortunate to be able to repay his gratitude in this way.

“I will request a prosthetic leg from the workshop as soon as possible. “It’s a prosthetic leg with nerves connected, so you can actually use it like a leg.”

“no! Is it really necessary… .”

“You gave me one more rice ball just for me, right?”

Huey’s eyes opened wide. She knew why. Se-hyeon always gave up her share to Lee Jae-young. It means that he is a person who is considerate enough to look at it carefully and take care of it.

“Please think of it as the price. “It was delicious.”

The short interview ended like that. Kim Gap-jun yelled at Se-hyeon, who turned his back after completing his errand, to work until he left the training center. Of course, those words didn’t make any sense.

As of today, Gapjun Kim’s work will be greatly reduced. 8 people remaining. Today was the last time they could be here. Tomorrow morning, Sehyeon was scheduled to drive them out of the empire with an expulsion order.

If you listened to Kim Gap-Jun’s education properly, you will survive; if not, you will die wandering from place to place.

Sehyeon had no intention of paying any attention to what happened after that. There was only so much recognition that Sehyun could give.

“First, I have to make an antidote and then do something… .”

There must be a reason why the Archduke summoned a hero. If the situation were like this, it would probably be war luck.

The scouting party planted by Ruhak alone numbered dozens. There was a high possibility that he had early insight into the situation or trends of the surrounding empires.

So, Sehyun also had to prepare, be it late or early. Raise your level if possible.

Sehyun headed to the ‘Potion Factory’, a potion manufacturing facility. He was thinking of asking his vassals to make a potion that could be used by mixing both detoxification potion, physical strength, and magic power. If it doesn’t work, try it yourself.

Ruhak was someone who considered the balance of institutions very important. Therefore, it was assigned to Sehyun’s job to understand the trends and levels of each organization. This was because the interests of vassals played a significant role in the balance of institutions.

All the vassals trusted Ruhak, but it was a kind of reverence. For example, although the retainers may say whining things to Sehyeon, they never do so in front of Ruhak. Rather, he was more polite and behaved appropriately.

I thought it wasn’t bad. Because there was definitely a need for someone to maintain discipline.

“by the way… “I need to find an engineer.”
