I laughed out loud.
At the same time, the corners of the mouth rise.
The biggest change was that the ‘contract with the devil’ that was popular with Narendra Nehru was changed to ‘the queen’s man’.
The skill is to summon Rosaria, as expected.
‘The magic power is higher than expected, but it will be worth it.’
I was confident because Taehyun had personally battled her.
The queen of nightmares. Succubus Queen Rosaria.
Unless national power players, who are currently considered the strongest in the world, flock here from time to time.
‘I am no match for her.’
With this, Taehyun was no different from signing up for life insurance that could save his life in times of crisis.
An opportunity that ordinary players would not get even if they paid thousands of dollars.
Of course, in order to fully fill the magic power of 200, you will need the help of predation or magic potions.
That was nothing compared to the price of one life.
‘And complete hypnosis. This could be useful too.’
The second skill that Rosaria seems to have taught.
Just like the predation characteristic of devouring the opponent’s skills, I had never heard of a monster being able to give skills to the player.
However, after returning, Taehyun has experienced many events that cannot be understood even from his past life experiences.
Naturally, I came to think that ‘complete hypnosis’ was one of them.
‘It would be nice if it wasn’t as risky as predation.’
Just as the king’s power, Predation, ignores class and shows effects beyond imagination, I had a feeling that the queen’s skills would not be light either.
Asian player friendly match coming soon.
It would be a great help there too.
‘And the charm stat… Even though I don’t pay attention to this, it keeps rising.’
Awakened idols, actors, politicians, etc.
An attractive stat that people in occupations where they have to appeal to the public about their attractiveness have one.
There is nothing wrong with this in an era where appearance is also evaluated as an asset.
‘This world is based on merit.’
Among the players, there were quite a few who were famous for their unique skills and marketing.
However, the essence of the player is to explore the Abyss and hunt monsters and demons.
What was important to them were the four major abilities that activated their skills and enabled their bodies to endure.
‘I don’t think I need it right now.’
Taehyun closed the status window, ignoring the charm stat that had reached the level of an S-class player.
Now all that’s left is to fill the public score enough to raise the ranking from 15th to 5th.
“Go forward… “I’m looking forward to it.”
Taehyun, who was satisfied with his time in the deep area, burst out laughing alone.
‘Tsk tsk. I heard it’s dangerous to be alone. What kind of monster did I encounter out there… .’
Paul Becker, who was watching from the side, could only click his tongue in regret.

“Congratulations on being discharged.”
Jeong Han-soo followed A-young into the guild leader’s room and handed her a bouquet of flowers.
“What about discharge? “I just changed places and started working.”
Ayoung threw the bouquet away carelessly and glared at Vice Guild Leader Jeong Hansu.
“haha… Don’t look at me like that. “I felt like I was dying while the guild leader was away.”
Ayoung sighed at Jeong Han-soo’s shameless laughter.
The injuries sustained in the ‘Temple of the Phoenix’ have long since healed.
Nevertheless, the reason I stayed at the hospital for a few more days was because I wanted to get some rest.
However, Jeong Han-soo also understood Ah-young’s condition like a ghost.
Because they kept complaining every hour about the backlog of payment documents.
Ayoung eventually had no choice but to return to the guild building.
“Vice-guild leader. “If this continues, I could really take a pay cut.”
“haha. When he scouted me, he said he would give me the world. “If I had known that I would become such a workaholic, I would have run away.”

Jeong Han-soo, the best talent in Nightwalker, was scouted by Ah-young after much trouble.
There is even a saying, ‘Night Walker’s greatest power is guild leader Yoo Ah-young, but the best brain is Jeong Han-su.’ He was an indispensable subordinate to A-young.
“know. It’s a joke. It’s a joke. “Without our deputy guild leader, it’s only a matter of time before Night Walker falls apart.”
Ayoung waved her hand and sat down.
There was already a pile of documents on my desk that needed to be reviewed.
‘I missed getting off work today too.’
Seeing Ahyoung like that, Jeong Hansoo laughed heartily.
“haha. I’ve taken care of most of that and that’s all that’s left. If it weren’t for me… .”
“joy. Condescension. “Is there anything more special than that?”
“You said it was something special, but you actually wanted to ask about player Kim Tae-hyun, right?”
Hot.
Although Ayoung tried not to show it, Jeong Hansoo was already looking like a hawk who had caught his prey.
“Why is the story like that?”
“That’s because you are not denying the dating rumors that are being circulated in the media. I didn’t know that the guild leader had a taste for younger men. If I’m not careful with this… .”
“I’m not interested in you, so just watch.”
“It’s a joke. “It’s impossible to have an office relationship.”
“Keep it short and to the point.”
Jeong Han-soo cleared his throat at the sight of Ah-young, who had suddenly returned to her original cool-headed self.
“Hmm. “I was just about to tell you that player Taehyun Kim has returned from the depths of the Abyss.”
“Hoo. So fast? “I guess it was impossible to explore the depths alone.”
“I guess so. “It’s not called an S-class tomb for nothing.”
Jeong Han-soo nodded and said as if he agreed.
It is a common occurrence for several players who are confident in their own skills to go missing while exploring the depths alone.
Therefore, the public opinion was that in the depths, it would be difficult for even S-class players to survive unless they formed an exploration party of dozens of people.
I was wondering if Taehyun was going through dungeons alone.
As expected, there were limits.
‘Taehyun, that guy. Are you going to open your hands to me now?’
As Ayoung, who had let her imagination run wild, grinned, Jeong Hansoo took a step back in surprise.
“so? “Is Taehyun at home now?”
“yes. But there is one problem.”
“huh? “What’s the problem?”
“I have information that Onsaemiro guild leader Kwon Kang-hyuk has headed that direction.”
Ayoung’s eyebrows twitched at Jeong Hansu’s words.
“her. What’s wrong with that big guy? “Aren’t you in the Abyss?”
“It hasn’t been long since we returned from the Abyss, and the reason is obvious, isn’t it? It must be a scouting offer. Even among the four major guilds, there is always a shortage of talent.”
“Hmm. It must be a pointless effort. “You’re so wrong, you big guy.”
It was Tae-hyun who had already rejected A-young’s offer as well as the president of the association, Ji Jin-hee.
It does not belong to any one, but has full support from the association and partnerships with two of the four major guilds.
There was no reason to join Onsaemiro or Magicians now.
“I think so too. Considering the personality of the guild leader, it won’t end with just words.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk, the guild leader of Onsaemi.
Jeong Han-su clicked his tongue as he recalled the legend-like anecdote that followed him around.
But Ayoung’s reaction was different.
“I guess so? Taehyun also has a tough personality. This is going to be a pretty interesting fight. Hehehe.”
“Watching a fight. Is the guild leader a kid? If you’re thinking of going to see the sights, don’t. “The work that needs to be done is piling up right now.”
Jeong Han-soo’s cold attitude.
“Yes, yes, whose orders are you?”
It was Ayoung who answered half-heartedly.
* * *
“If you are busy, what are you doing here?”
Taehyun is the big guy in front of him. I asked a man who looked like a bear.
“I mean, you move around so much. “I stopped by because I wanted to see that handsome face in person.”
He had the audacity to believe that he was someone who came without an appointment on the first meeting.
If you have this attitude from the first meeting, you might be embarrassed.
Taehyun knew the man in front of him well.
Kwon Kang-hyuk.
The four major guilds of New Korea, such as Yoo Ah-young and Seo Sang-ik.
The guild leader, Onsaemiro, who was said to be the best among the four major guilds in terms of pure force, was blocking the half-open door as if he was about to rip it open.
‘Why is it that only bigwigs come here to the extent that the association’s security is useless?’
While Taehyun was wondering how to take advantage of this situation, Kwon Kanghyuk spoke first.
“Do you plan to keep standing like this?”
“Please come in.”
With Taehyeon’s permission, Kwon Kanghyuk and his secretary came inside.
“I thought what a great place it must be to live as a rookie who receives the full support of the association… “It’s shabbier than I thought.”
Taehyun shrugged his shoulders and glanced at Kwon Kang-hyuk’s unhesitating assessment.
Unlike Night Walker, an information guild, and Alchemist, who specializes in production and distribution, Onsaemiro is a military guild whose main purpose is exploration of the Abyss.
so that.
‘Kwon Kang-hyuk. It really deserves to be ranked 3rd.’
The energy he felt just by looking at each other stimulated Taehyun’s body.
This happened because Kwon Kang-hyuk did not bother to hide his power.
“Well, there’s nothing to be afraid of. “I didn’t come here to fight.”
“It was notorious for such harsh actions.”
Kwon Kang-hyuk burst into laughter at Tae-hyun’s unwavering answer.
As he was also the head of the four major guilds, it was natural that he had a strong greed for talent.
It’s just not enough to say that the method of scouting them is extreme.
“I heard you’re working as a freelancer?”
“yes.”
“If you fight me and lose, come join our guild.”
Like right now.
Because it was an obvious repertoire that I had heard so many times in my past life.
Taehyun didn’t even smile.
“I have nothing to think about, so just leave now.”
“Are you out of your mind?”
“Ah, of course, I intend to work as a business partner or mercenary. “I don’t think that’s what you want.”
“Hwiyu~ Just like I heard, he’s a guy with a high nose. Opportunities like this don’t come around often. “Just pretend to think about it for a moment.”
Pretend to think.
While Taehyun was already thinking about how to use Kwon Kanghyuk, a memory came to his mind.
Labyrinth Minotaros.
‘Well, in return for coming to visit me in person. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to change the order.’
Taehyun, having made up his mind, raised the corners of his mouth with a smirk.
“If it’s a Scout gun, my answer is the same. And above all.”
“hmm?”
“It’s because I don’t want to fall under someone weaker than me.”
It was an obvious provocation.
Nevertheless.
Quick.
Tendons sprouted on Kwon Kang-hyuk’s forehead.
