00205 It was just an illusion ——————————————– —————————-=
“This is Seong Hyeon-min, a member of a clan who came as a representative of Dana, a small town in the southeast. He holds the position of Clan Lord, and he has been in Hall Plain for about four years.”
The moment I heard Seong Hyun-min’s self-introduction, I was finally able to understand why my attention was focused on him. Seong Hyeon-min, the clan lord of a clan. During his time in the first inning, he made a mark in the history of Hall Plains. He took a step back towards the latter half of the game, but until then, he was a user who had a tremendous impact on the history of Holeplane.
As soon as the godmother heard his name, she opened her mouth and tapped her knee as if something came to mind.
“iced coffee. Now I remember. Did you say it was the rising star of the east? “I heard you’re quite a resourceful person.”
“ha ha ha. “I’m just grateful that my godmother thinks favorably of me.”
“I just said what I heard. Anyway, that aside, I think he said he had something to say.”
“Then just a moment… . Oops, this might be a bit long. Godmother told us to tell our inner thoughts, and because of the situation just now, all the unspeakable things have already come out between us. To that extent, I will also reveal my true feelings without hesitation. This may be uncomfortable for the people sitting across from me, but I ask for your understanding in advance as it is an issue that must be addressed.”
Seong Hyun-min smiled a friendly smile and slowly stood up. The simple act of pushing back the chair and standing up soon followed, but for some reason it seemed like a very dignified act as he did so. Eventually, his eyes scanned the entire conference room, and his neat lips slowly opened.
“I’ll tell you straight. The representative clans and affiliated clans to the east of us can no longer tolerate the dictatorship of the Golden Lion.”
Seong Hyun-min’s words were concise. However, the impact that those words had had was such that it could never be ignored. The representatives of the Goryeo and Dalbam clans, who were eating together in the east, had relatively calm faces. It seemed like the words had probably been guessed in advance. However, the other clans all looked at each other with very embarrassed faces. For a moment, a loud murmur filled the conference room.
The noise stopped after the godmother held up her hand to calm them down.
“We cannot tolerate the dictatorship of the Golden Lion… . Please tell me in more detail. “It’s okay if this is a little longer.”
“I will no longer mention the exclusion of other clans from the start of the vagabond extermination plan. This is a fact that everyone already knows. What I want to talk about is the lives of the 5,000 users who died during this expedition. Who are those users? Of course, there may be less, but most of them are elites from each clan, with an average of 4 years or more.”
“Let me tell you something for a moment. Of course, this is not wrong, but that alone cannot support the declarations of the eastern clans, including the Han clan. In reality, non-participating clans suffered little damage. “There is not enough justification.”
A user wearing the Northern Clan emblem tackled Seong Hyun-min’s words in a polite voice. But his face showed no signs of agitation. He put on a rather gentle expression and spoke in a tone like a teacher teaching a child.
“There is not enough justification. He said he suffered no harm. That is incorrect. After conquering Barbara, for four years new users were monopolized by the Golden Lion and friendly clans. Clans who failed to participate in the User Academy had no choice but to recruit users who had not received offers anywhere after the graduation ceremony. At least until now. We got to this point by nurturing users with relatively low talent and potential. On the other hand, they have been steadily strengthening the clan’s power by recruiting users with good talent and deep potential. Let me give you an example. Of course, some people may have reached the top 10 before then, but the ratio of top 10 players before the expedition was only 7:3. Excluding the
Seong Hyeon-min was particularly “unable to participate in the expedition.” He said it with force. Clearly, Seong Hyun-min’s words about Lecture 10 gave strength to his argument. In other words, the evils of the monopoly on the user academy were pointed out by citing the distribution ratio of the top 10 between participating and non-participating clans.
The Northern Clan agent who first spoke and the users of the friendly clan next to him all fell silent. It looked like he wanted to say something, but he probably didn’t have anything to say. In the past, they would have suppressed their complaints by joining forces with a single, unrivaled clan called the Golden Lion Clan, but now the situation is reversed.
Seong Hyun-min never got excited while speaking. He was maintaining his own pace and expressing his opinions in a clear voice. I continued to focus on what he was saying, thinking that his speaking skills were still good. His mouth was not closed yet.
“5,000 users with an average of over 4 years of experience lost their lives. Accordingly, the average age of users in the North Continent has decreased and the level has also decreased significantly. This is not to simply look at it from the narrow perspective of a clan. Breaking through the Steel Mountains and discovering Shincheonji was a large-scale project that all users of the Northern Continent were eagerly waiting for. They ruined it with their shameless greed and caused damage to the entire northern continent. Fortunately, people like the Mercenary Clan appeared at the right time, so we haven’t lost hope yet, but if we want to march into the Steel Mountains again in the future. No, I just can’t figure out how many more years we have to wait to repair the damage caused by this expedition.”
When the Mercantile Clan was mentioned in the middle, I was able to make eye contact with him once. He bowed his head to me as he spoke, and I responded by bowing slightly. Suddenly, I felt a little complicated inside.
During the first round, he and I were completely hostile forces. However, it was not a hostile force from the beginning. Rather, it was safe to say that they maintained a good relationship at first. I remember that the falling out between them was a very minor event.
“I think your godmother is bored, so I’ll finish this sentence. I believe that the process from the beginning of the expedition planning to the result is absolutely wrong. To conclude again, the Golden Lion Clan can be said to be the main culprit of this incident. “We can no longer stand by and watch this evil happen.”
“At first, I said I couldn’t stand dictatorship. That was the reason. “I know roughly what you mean.”
“Thank you for your understanding.”
“it’s okay. It makes me feel better to hear you say that in the first place. In any case, haven’t you defined the Golden Lion Clan’s actions as dictatorship and said that you can’t just wait and see? “Then it means there is something you want, but you haven’t heard it yet.”
Seong Hyeon-min, who was about to sit down, hesitated and stood up again. Then he started taking turns looking at the users sitting around him. Soon, Jo Seong-ho of the Goryeo Clan could be seen nodding his head. Judging by that, he was probably planning to bring up the main topic in the Goryeo clan, but since the current atmosphere was not going well, it seemed like he was planning to leave it to Seong Hyeon-min.
“I acknowledge the Golden Lion Clan’s contribution to stabilizing the Northern Continent after they attacked Barbara, and I personally respect them. hmm… . He said he couldn’t wait to see it, but if I purify it a little more, I can tell you that it’s unbelievable. What we want is for the Golden Lion not to arbitrarily decide on such a large-scale plan that would put the fate of the Northern Continent at stake. This means that it would be nice if all clans were given equal opportunities and could participate equally. And the first step is… .”
Seong Hyun-min paused for a moment and looked around. Everyone, without exception, was waiting for his next words with nervous expressions on their faces. The ridge of his neck moved, and then his lips slowly opened.
“I think we can start with equal participation in this user academy.”
There was a long sigh from one side and a heavy sigh from the other. Barbara’s value as a large city was great, but its greatest value was that it had a user academy. Clearly, what Seong Hyun-min said was right. However, it must be quite painful for them to have to share the pie that they and their colleagues have monopolized so far.
“hmm… .”
Seong Hyeon-min was able to sit down only after saying those words. His godmother stared at him with an intrigued look on her face, then she let out an amusement-sounding snort of her own. Then she touched the golden necklace around her neck and closed her eyes. She looked deep in thought.
The claims of non-participating clans, including Seong Hyun-min, were not simply limited to this user academy. He said he wanted to be involved in all future plans. And that, from the golden lion’s point of view, may not be very pleasant.
Because Hol Plain is a world where power is power. Although they are now putting it under false pretenses, if they lose power, they will have no choice but to give up their rights. Even though they called for equal participation of all clans, there was no way they were unaware of the internal situation as this was what they had been doing so far.
Anyway, with the declaration of the eastern clans, the die was cast. Now all that remained was the godmother’s decision.
There was an awkward silence as she closed her eyes. But the silence didn’t last long. Soon after, her godmother gently lifted her eyelids, raised her right hand, waved her index finger, and called out to Park Hyeon-woo.
“Hyeonwoo.”
“yes. “Godmother.”
“When do you think the User Academy’s portal move will be completed?”
“I think it will probably be completed as early as tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest.”
Hyunwoo Park answered in an extremely polite voice. However, his voice contained an anxiety that could not be hidden. “I don’t have much time.” The godmother said and immediately let out her loud sigh. She then lifted her wand and tapped it once or twice on her table.
Thump, thud… .
“What you’re saying is that you want equal opportunity for major and minor events in the Northern Continent.”
“yes. That’s right.”
“If you look at the words themselves, there’s nothing particularly flawed… .”
“… … .”
The godmother looked worried for a while. However, she soon opened her mouth in a firm tone, as if she had decided on something.
“Good. “I, Son Bunrye, the user who has been entrusted with the Golden Lion’s full authority, will grant your request from this moment on.”
“Godmother!”
“Are you sure?”
“However, there is one condition.”
The moment the godmother opened her mouth, Park Hyun-woo and Jo Seong-ho’s shouts were heard at the same time. However, Son Bun-rye silenced them with his next words.
Jo Seong-ho had an excited face like never before. He thought that it was an unreasonable request and that they would not accept it, but it seems that he became impatient when things were unexpectedly resolved easily.
“Joe, if it’s a condition… .”
“It’s simple. I will take responsibility for this User Academy case and provide equal opportunities. Just do what you think. And I’ll take a look.”
“You’re watching?”
“okay. Did you just gloss over what you said, or did you speak with sincerity? Seeing is better than hearing, and it is difficult to judge just by hearing what is said, so it would be better to see it in person. “If you show a satisfactory performance at this User Academy, I promise you that the dictatorship of the Golden Lion that you have felt so far will no longer be seen.”
After finishing her sentence, she banged the table once to indicate that she would not go back any further. And soon, a terrifying energy began to bloom from her entire body. That energy expressed the unspoken meaning that it would not dare to tolerate resistance. The people who were about to rush towards the Godmother were slightly stopped by the wave of magic power exploding from the staff.
The atmosphere changed in an instant. The friendly clans, including the Golden Lion, were biting their lips as if this could not happen, and the non-participating clans were all looking happy.
“I’m telling you, I put a condition on it. “Keep in mind that if you continue to follow what you define as evil, we will have no choice but to find another way.”
“Would it be possible? “I will definitely not disappoint you.”
“joy. You speak well. That remains to be seen. Anyway, aside from these guys, if there are any users here who have a different opinion, please tell me.”
There was no reason to be there. Eastern clan users strapped on their guns, and it paid off. The southern clan users looked at their proud gazes and expressed their gratitude for their hard work. Perhaps, if Cho Seong-ho and Seong Hyun-min had not understood their words, support from the southern representative clans would have continued, but even if things did work out, they worked out very well.
“good. “Then, let’s conclude this about the User Academy.”
“Good, godmother.”
“I nailed it down in advance, but I have no intention of ever reversing it. No matter how much I tried to be kind to you, there was nothing wrong with their logic. I don’t know if he had just left after telling me to step away from Barbara in the first place, but I came in after making some concessions. “You have to listen.”

“… … .”
Park Hyun-woo, who caught his godmother with a anxious voice, gritted his teeth when he heard her confirmation. She must have heard that sound and continued her words with a laugh.
“Where are you going to grind your teeth after forcing someone who doesn’t want to come? I definitely should have told you before I came. In return for resolving this matter, I will be given full authority over the Golden Lion. “Are you saying you’re going to say something different now?”
“Oh, no.”
“Tsk tsk. Poor guy who can’t even see ahead. Don’t forget. That our deal still remains. “If you break your promise, I will not grant your request either.”
“… All right.”
Park Hyun-woo eventually took a step back with a gloomy look on his face. Son Bun-rye, who confirmed this, immediately smiled and stood up. Soon, Go Yeon-joo caught her with her pretty voice as she crossed the conference room, tapping her cane.
“uh? Godmother, where are you going?”
“Where are you going? This is the end of the summons. My part is done. Since there is not much time left for new users to enter, shouldn’t it be time to coordinate the user academy? “You’re not going to ask me to do that, are you?”
“Oh~. That’s right. “So are you going back?”
“Going back sucks. Where should I go? We must save Yeonggam Taegi, who is in a near-dead state. “Anyway, he is a man who takes a lot of effort, both then and now.”
After chomping down on her appetite, the godmother started walking again. She was caught by Seong Yu-bin once again, this time.
“Good, godmother. “What if you leave already?”
“What should I do? What should I do?”
“But you’re not in good shape… . At least as an escort… .”
“Seong Yubin!”
Just as Seong Yu-bin was about to continue speaking in a cautious voice, Park Hyun-woo’s loud shout shook the conference room. At that voice, she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand with a startled look on her face. However, Son Bun-rye responded in a tone that it was no big deal.
“This is going to make my ears drop. Hehehe. Anyway, stop worrying about me. I saw something in the eastern mountain range the other day, and I’m thinking of going there. Now that I’m out again, I need to get moving even if it’s just for a moment. By the way, you probably don’t have time to just like things right now, do you?”
“of course. Regarding the user academy, we will provide strictly equal opportunities based on principles. “You probably won’t be disappointed.”
The godmother snorted at Jo Seong-ho’s words. Then she said, “You can stir and fry as you like this time, but keep in mind that the most important thing is the result. “If nothing has changed since I came back, as I said before, I have no choice but to find another way.” she warned.
On one side, a cheerful voice thanked her. And on the other side, I saw her sending her off in a somber voice.
It was then. I quickly activated my third eye as I watched her leave the door, greeting her with a smile. This is because I could sense something strange in Seong Yu-bin’s words, which I had just heard at first glance.
—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=
hello. This is Ro Yujin.
Hurray. The convocation order, which was thought to be a major challenge, was able to be completed to some extent. Maybe we can tie it up next time or completely. Strangely enough, my body keeps sagging these days. It seems that the aftereffects of reserve force training have not yet subsided. In times like these, I think it would be a great help if we had the kind words from our readers. Oh, by the way, my hair doesn’t discriminate between men and women of all ages.(?) Hahaha. 😀
『Reripple』
1. Re-creator of the myth: Oho. I think you won first place once. It’s amazing that you won first place again. I can’t believe you put aside the struggles of many people. LOL. Congratulations on first place. I hope you enjoy this episode.
2. Broken fan: Haha. Even I can’t get first place in the midnight series. It’s Hel, Hel. It’s hell. So don’t be too sad. ㅜ.ㅠ
3. Crammy: Thank you for the coupon. (__) I’ve been strangely lacking in strength lately, but I’ll try harder. ah. Additionally, if you pat my head, I can get a buff. Yes, that’s right (ahem.)
4. rlatjdwn512: The talented male user you are looking for has arrived. ha ha ha. Some male characters will be added in the future (yes, there are also female characters), so please look forward to it. 🙂
5. Wicked Guy: Huh. So you are saying that you completed the trip in one day. You are amazing. Thank you for your hard work. (__)
6. No color, no self: LOL. We have corrected parts that may have felt awkward. Still, as she is a grandmother, the basic speaking style will remain the same. This grandmother, her Lee Man-seong, is older than her grandfather.
7. Ethersion: I love you. Oh, no. I said something wrong for a moment. yes yes. thank you I was already looking for it. ㅜ.ㅠ
8. Heukseonpung Lee Gyu 2: Thank you. ha ha ha. Even if I catch a cold, I will not stop writing. Of course, it would be best not to catch a cold. Heukseonpung Lee Gyu2, have a nice day and be careful not to catch a cold!
9. Cheetos: Cheetos. This is a cutting magic gun. Kelkelkelkelkel. Godmother’s abilities will be revealed in the next episode. Kelkelkkeel! (Pukpuk! Ugh!)
10. Because I Love You + UrDREAM: Certainly, it could have been a little better if the existence of the godmother had been highlighted and approached a little more. For your information, he is older than Lee Man-seong. There is a penalty to aging in the hole plane, but it can be compensated for by the excellence of your abilities or the equipment you have.
Your recommendations and comments become the driving force of Yeoncham. (This is the truth.)
I always read all the comments over and over again.
I hope you don’t feel too disappointed that it’s not on Riripple.
