Damn Necromancer (88)
government(1)
We boarded the government vehicle.
A vehicle heading towards the Blue House.
‘What the hell is going on?’
The system would occasionally send messages to countries.
The content varies.
but.
‘I won’t send you over something trivial.’
Usually, messages are delivered when something happens.
‘I could be included in that.’
I wondered if they were holding some kind of competition or something. From what I remember, the system didn’t do anything around this time… … .
‘Because it’s level 6.’
Unlike before, it wasn’t that strange even if there was a change. You can find out more details only when you meet the president.
Before long, I was able to enter the Blue House.
“Nice to meet you. “This is President Lee Kang-hoon.”
“This is Minwoo Kim. “It’s an honor to meet you.”
“Hehe, what? I am completely honored. “Come on, let’s sit down.”
President Lee Kang-hoon appears to be in his 50s.
His actual age was close to 70. He just looks young because he’s an awakened person.
‘I just know him as a quiet person.’
If I had to describe him, I would have to describe him as colorless and odorless.
Anyway.
The president, who was sitting like that, spoke with a serious expression.
“Minwoo Kim. “You probably heard the story roughly.”
“yes. I heard that the system’s message was delivered… … .”
“you’re right. The content is simple. “Super rookie tryout.”
“… … “Super rookie tryout?”
The president nodded and handed over a piece of paper.
“Let’s read it.”
[We are holding a super rookie selection contest.]
[Organizer: System]
[Period: 1 month later]
[Qualification Requirements]
[One. Must be between levels 151 and 499.]
[2. Participating countries are limited to 50 countries in total.]
[3. A total of three people from each country can participate.]
[4. The number of participants is selected and designated by each country.]
[5. Death may occur during the test, and responsibility lies with the individual.]
[6. 1st to 3rd place can receive special rewards.]
‘Super rookie tryout?’
This is my first time seeing an event like this.
I looked at the president.
“This is a text that was sent to the government some time ago. According to this information, we in Korea are planning to designate three people.”
“The reason you called me was to ask if you would like to participate?”
“you’re right.”
Lee Kang-hoon nodded and said.
“For a competition of this scale, the rewards must be great. but… … There is a risk. “It was stated that death could occur during the test.”
“The level range is also wide.”
“yes. From class D to class A… … “If you’re level 499, you should actually be considered S-rank.”
The President’s eyes became serious.
“At first, I thought about inviting another awakened person to participate instead of Minwoo Kim. If anything goes wrong… … .”
Minwoo Kim nodded.
The eldest son of Ilsung Group.
He is an awakened person who is starting to make his name known not only in Korea but also around the world.
Is it even a high level there?
no.
Even from the president’s perspective, it would have been burdensome to participate.
Other countries will usually have awakeners of level 400 or higher participating.
This is a situation where if something is done wrong, only the government can be criticized. They pushed away the growing sprouts, saying that it was a desk administration, blah blah blah.
“I understand.”
“yes. “If I hadn’t seen that duel video back then, my thoughts wouldn’t have changed.”
“Have you seen it, President?”
“haha. I am also human. It’s natural to pay attention to issues. Anyway, seeing how easily I dealt with an awakened person of that caliber, my thoughts changed a bit. No, to be honest, I would say I was greedy. “If you just send an A-level awakened person, you won’t be able to make it to the rankings.”
Pilwook Jo is so helpful again.
To participate and not to participate.
Of course, Minwoo Kim’s answer was predetermined.
‘I absolutely have to participate.’

The scale is not small.
The scope is a whopping 50 countries.
All the rookies who are said to be born here are planning to participate.
‘Of course the compensation would be good.’
When I first saw this event, I couldn’t tell what it would give, but it was clear that at least it wouldn’t be trivial.
“I want to participate. I will take full responsibility. “Let’s at least write a will.”
“haha. There is no need for that. I told you. I also got greedy. So, we must also take responsibility.”
Lee Kang-hoon shook his head and said with his eyes shining.
“I still remember my youth. Even at that time, Korea was clearly an awakening powerhouse. I hope that Minwoo Kim will regain that glory. “The government will not spare any support for him.”
Lee Kang-hoon speaks with firm eyes.
It was trustworthy.
‘You might want to walk here.’
A+ grade gate clearing stake: 50%.
Level 300 awakeners were also played with like toys. It just proves that it works well not only in the lower ranks but also in the upper ranks.
A level where potential runs rampant.
It wasn’t strange for the president to say something like that.
It was a world where one successful awakened person could even change the image of a nation.
“Have you already selected the remaining two people?”
“We haven’t selected it yet. However, we intend to respect Minwoo Kim’s opinion as the top priority. “Do you have anyone in mind?”
The president is giving off a strong impression that he will properly support this side.
If possible, it would be better if the team members were of the same nationality.
Maybe that’s why it seemed like they were trying to hand over the right to select personnel.
“wait a minute. Oh, can I take a picture? “I want to show it to the guild members.”
“yes. “It doesn’t matter as long as it doesn’t leak out.”
“thank you.”
I opened my phone and entered the guild group chat room.
[Minwoo Kim]
―I am currently at the Blue House, and I have heard a proposal.
[Park Si-woo]
―Wow, the Blue House… … Brother, did you really meet the president?
(nervous emoticon)
[Seo Ye-rim]
-What are you suggesting?
(Slanting rabbit emoticon)
[Minwoo Kim]
―ㅇㅇ I met with the President, and I received a message from the system… … .
(Attach pictures)
It is said that there is a competition like this. Are you all interested in participating?
[Park Si-woo]
-oh. I will do it!
(Emoji with shining eyes and flashing hands)
[Seo Ye-rim]
―Siwoo, have you achieved level 151?
[Park Si-woo]
―I’m currently at 143, but I have a month left, so I think it’ll be okay? Are you going to participate too? It’s level 420.
[Seo Ye-rim]
-ok. I will participate too.
They told me to be careful because it would be dangerous.
There was no need to say that in the first place. Not only was it already attached to the photo, but originally, Awakening was one of the occupations that risked one’s life.
“The remaining two, our guild will participate.”
Lee Kang-hoon nodded.
Geombong Seo Ye-rim was already qualified to participate.
The same was true for the other two.
Minwoo Kim and Siwoo Park.
Although he was only at a low level, he was known as a super rookie who had already achieved S-level achievements. These two people might be stronger than most A-class awakened people.
Because S-class achievements were no joke.
“great. Then, we will shortlist the three members of the guild. “A verification process will be conducted at least once in the future.”
“As for the verification process… … ?”
“We will filter out the awakened people through the preliminary round. “I think it will be enough for the three selected people to spar.”
Ah, so.
Just skip the preliminaries and just play the finals.
‘It’s okay.’
In any case, it was impossible to select people completely privately.
There are as many as 50 participating countries.
Of course, among the 50 countries, there are some that openly select people.
Then, we will also tell you why we are selecting you.
If we just skipped everything and put the money-making guild as the final candidate, all kinds of backlash could have come out.
For example, collusion between politics and business or something like that. Rather than leaving after hearing such nonsense, it was better to just demonstrate my skills and prove it.
Fortunately, I was able to skip all the annoying preliminaries.
“great. Ah, but I want to go to the gate.”
“Which gate are you talking about?”
“Devil’s Gate near Incheon.”
“Oh, you mean that B-class gate?”
I nodded.
The official name is Devil’s Castle.
Usually, it was just called the Devil Gate for convenience. This is because there are only a few gates in Korea where devils appear.
“If that’s the place… … “It won’t take long to clear.”
“I’ll probably be back by the end of the preliminaries.”
The Devil’s Castle is not large in area.
There are just a lot of monsters inside. Basically, it is not a gate that takes a lot of time.
of course.
‘This is a story about when the hidden piece was not activated.’
When you activate the hidden element, the stage within the gate changes a bit.
‘It’s still short.’
It’s not that long anyway.
at that time.
Lee Kang-hoon’s face became serious.
“The international situation is unusual these days. “Not yet in the United States, but Japan and China will be keeping an eye on Kim Min-woo.”
I nodded.
Not only were the two countries geographically close to Korea, but they resembled rivals who only snarled at each other without raising swords.
In fact, there were several attempts to remove it. Suggestions like changing your nationality in exchange for tens of trillions of dollars.
For now, everything was being ignored.
I have no intention of going to America either.
“Maybe an assassin will come looking for us. “If Minwoo Kim wants it, our government can help.”
“No, thanks.”
I shook my head.
It wasn’t that the government’s help was useless. There are some outstanding awakened people all over the government.
Not only was the salary paid well, but it was also quite stable as a civil servant.
Additionally, when entering the gate, you can turn the meter to prevent intrusion.
however… … .
‘It’s a bit difficult now.’
Devil’s castle.
As with the Devil Gate, the conditions for activating the Hidden Piece are a bit evil.
A sacrifice is needed.
That’s a bit much too.
When I played Minwoo Kim in the past.
It was a fact that I found out after a bunch of assassins broke in.
As I was killing them all, I even found a hidden piece.
But what if the government helps?
It becomes difficult for offerings to come in.
That’s why I write it.
“… … Are you sure you don’t mind?”
“yes. it’s okay.”
The experience of an awakened person is several times that of a monster of the same level. Even each corpse is worth money.
Since they are the ones who came here to kill us in the first place, there is no burden in offering them as a sacrifice.
‘There are some people who could come in at the right time.’
shadow.
Those guys who said they would come visit us in a month.
The deadline was slowly approaching. What will happen if I give a firm rejection when we meet again?
Are we going to just leave them here to grow?
In Minwoo Kim’s opinion, it wasn’t like that at all.
If you had a brain, you would start trying to process it somehow.
Not only is the growth rate incredible.
‘Because I already shook my pants.’
They have advertised that they are a very dirty organization. The more this side grows, the more my stomach turns.
There was no way I could just let the gate go around.
‘Everyone is killed here.’
There was a world of difference between when I first met Han Baek-gil and now.
Not only has the Commander’s Sword grown, but he has also gained a second corps commander.
‘I got achievement points, so that’s good.’
S-class assassin?
Ask him to come.
I will eat you in return.
Ant hell.
It was time to lay the plate.
