ReLife Player Chapter 507

Relife Player 507

[Chapter 139]

[Phoenix’s Egg]

In total, there are seven clans that have received S-level recognition in Korea.

People who like rankings would evaluate clans relative to each other even if they had the same rank, and if there was a difference in the performance and size of the clan, they would call them +, 0, and -.

Of course, there were only seven clans that received S-rank approval, so dividing them into levels was meaningless.

Nevertheless, the mark attached to the grade made a difference in people’s perception.

In that sense─.

“─This is the clan’s first quarter performance status. If you look at this, you can see how much it differs from last year’s first quarter performance.”

“It’s just that one seat in front fell off.”

“Yes, that’s right, Clan Road. It’s down 20% compared to last year. It’s not like the economy wasn’t that good, and we haven’t had any accidents yet this year.”

Blaze Clan, which fell from S-tier to S-tier, started the year with fairly low performance.

Blaze Clan Lord Kang Hyeon-cheol was currently being scolded by the administrator while checking the operating profit in his office.

“I thought I had barely reached S rank, but what is this….”

“S-me, S-me, what’s the big deal… It’s not like they’re feeding me anything.”

“You’re saying this because you’re feeding them. I told you, operating profit fell by 20%.”

“Can’t I just make that much more next quarter?”

The administrator sighed heavily.

Regardless, Kang Hyeon-cheol maintained a calm attitude.

He wasn’t too concerned about clan rank.

The same goes for him and other clan members.

They were satisfied as long as they could swing a sword.

So, wrinkles were bound to increase one by one on the forehead of the administrator who was in charge of the clan’s household chores.

“I thought I was going to fail grade A, but aren’t you glad I didn’t?”

“Please don’t think about falling.”

Meanwhile, there was one more reason why Kang Hyeon-cheol was calm.

The clan rating did not drop as much as he expected.

“If you’re a member of Blaze Clan, you don’t have to worry about grades or anything like that?”

“Is that what a Clan Lord would do?”

“And since I got an S- instead of an A, it’s a good thing I got it cheap.” “haha….”

A few months ago now.

Blaze Clan entered the finals of the Academy Cultural Festival General Category Competition.

As a result, the Academy sent a stern protest.

‘—If you’re that age now, shouldn’t you have straight hair? ‘Did you want to be humiliated like this in front of your clan members?’

<Empress> Shin Seo-young invaded Blaze Clan.

Even though she had now retired from the Twelve Seas, her career was not something that could be ignored.

So he couldn’t refute anything and had to get scolded by her.

And that in front of the clan members.

“Anyway, let’s forget about the past and do better from next quarter.”

“…Hey, Clan Lord? Strangely, why does it sound like I did something wrong?”

“Stop going out and do your work.” “haha….”

That wasn’t the end.

The incident that broke into the academy even reached the fairy’s ears.

So, the fairy Im Ga-eul entrusted Kang Hyeon-cheol with various tasks in order to protect his body as the Twelve.

In addition, Blaze Clan was downgraded by one level and ordered to devote itself to national projects until the first quarter of this year.

This was the reason for Blaze Clan’s poor performance in the first quarter of this year.

“What if the performance is poor? Still, I was able to see how much that Choco Pie kid has grown. Wow, that guy is a real thing, a thing.”

Just do it.

Kang Hyeon-cheol snapped his fingers and burned the report that the administrator had handed over a moment ago.

He hummed as he recalled what the clan members who sparred with Noh Eun-ha had discussed earlier.

It was a military song.

“I feel like I want to run right away and say let’s have a fight….”

Noh Eun-ha from <Kwaedo-nanma>.

A promising player with a nickname who is not even a player, but is considered one of the players with the most promising future in the industry.

Kang Hyeon-cheol wanted to compete with Noh Eun-ha once.

But I couldn’t touch him as he wasn’t even a player yet.

It was obvious that the Empress would be furious.

I could see the fairy’s eyes as well.

“…2 years. Let’s wait for 2 years….”

Let’s wait until the next two years when Noh Eun-ha graduates from the academy.

Kang Hyeon-cheol repeated to himself.

Then he decided to do something else to distract himself.

[─You’re not working and playing right now, right?]

“I’m working hard. Why, what’s going on?”

[That can’t be possible… .]

Just then, Hye-rim Park received a call.

It was a hello call.

She told me that she would be dispatched to the player market as part of her duties.

“Oh, really? That’s going to be hard.”

It was the time when the first half of the year auction was held in the player market.

Since this is an auction where items that are not normally traded are displayed, we had to be fully prepared for expenses.

That must be why she attends as the Twelve.

Kang Hyeon-cheol just ignored it.

Because it wasn’t his job.

Right then─.

[─Anyway, that’s a clan too.

Isn’t it going to be on the market because it’s a road?]

“Maybe so?”

[Then why don’t you help me with my work?]

“Huh? Why me?”

Park Hye-rim’s unexpected request.

Kang Hyeon-cheol frowned.

I had no intention of helping anyone else with their work.

But Park Hye-rim seemed to have anticipated his reaction.

[─I’ll make sundae soup. That’s where I went last time. I said it was delicious.]

“…….”

[I wrote my heart out. They also serve assorted sundae. call?]

“call.”

Hye-rim Park proposes a deal.

Kang Hyeon-cheol, whose mouth was watering without realizing it at the sound of sundae soup, nodded like Pavlov’s dog.

☆

April passed quickly.

Around the time Eunha finished her midterm exams.

The call I had been waiting for the whole time arrived from Twenty-Five.

─As expected, my thoughts were right.

Twenty-five said.

It is said that the item that Eunha is looking for is scheduled to be auctioned in the first half of the player market.

At that time, Eunha cried out in joy.

The timing was truly appropriate.

I almost passed up a precious opportunity in vain.

I got lucky.

It was a well-known story that Kang Hyeon-cheol discovered it at an auction, but the exact time was not known.

From a previous life.

Kang Hyeon-cheol of the Twelve Seas <Yamma> met Ki-yeon, who complemented his lack of control ability.

A story that was quite famous in the industry.

However, Eunha did not know when he met Giyeon.

I just roughly compared my memories and thought it was around this time.

That’s why Eunha left instructions from Twenty-Five to continue monitoring the player market.

So─.

“—There are a lot of players.”

“Because it’s a player market.”

“It looks like players who are mainly active in the provinces have also come up.”

“You know that too?”

Seoul COEX.

Eunha visited the player market where the auction house was held in the first half of the year.

Of course, I wasn’t alone.

Han Seohyun also accompanied him.

Han Seohyun, who was holding Eunha’s hand, was closely examining the players entering the building.

Then, they casually guessed the clan they belonged to.

Eunha couldn’t help but be surprised.

“If you want to become a clan administrator, don’t you have to remember the emblems of other clans?”

As if this is something you should basically know.

Han Seohyun responded calmly.

Eunha noticed that she was studying hard to enter university and become the clan’s administrator.

This sister is also a very strange person.

I could live comfortably if I just stayed still… .

Eunha smiled bitterly inwardly.

I couldn’t help but think that Han Seohyun was truly a weirdo.

It wasn’t that I didn’t like it.

Rather, he liked that side of her.

“Let’s go quickly. Let’s go inside and have a cool coffee.”

“okay.”

After becoming engaged to Han Seohyun.

Eunha used to meet Han Seohyun once every other weekend.

Han Seo-hyun said that no matter how strategically the relationship may be, you should make sure that people around you do not find it strange.

Eunha fell for her conversation and was carrying out the date they had verbally promised at the beginning of their engagement.

Meeting her today could also be said to be part of a promise.

Last week I went on a date with Hayang, and this week I went on a date with Lee.

Even if I leave the academy on the weekends, I can hardly find time to stay at home.

Thanks to this, Eunha had a golden weekend, taking turns meeting Han Seohyun and Jeong Ha.

I’m in a situation where I can’t even rest properly at home.

To the point where he complained that Eun-ah and Eun-ae were not paying attention to him.

It’s not that I don’t like it, though.

Even if I went on a date with two people, I usually went home before nightfall.

Eun or Eun-ae’s complaints were just a joke.

Eunha looked back at Han Seohyun, who was following her while holding her hand.

“—Why are you doing that?”

“No, it’s just… you look pretty today.”

“That’s the first thing you say when you first meet. Anyway, thank you.”

“No. When I met you earlier, I didn’t think you were very pretty? I put on my makeup while I was in the bathroom earlier….”

“Do you want to get scolded? Please limit your jokes to the first verse. If you’re pretty, you can just say you’re pretty. Why are you being embarrassed?”

“The pinching of my hand hurts too much….”

“I’m going to kill you.”

Although I didn’t make a verbal promise.

Eunha held her hand as if it was natural that she would meet her someday.

She didn’t hesitate either.

Sometimes she was the first to hold Eunha’s hand.

It was like that today too.

When we first met, Eunha held my hand first, and when we got off at Samseong Station, she held my hand first.

… It looked strangely pretty at that time.

Was it because he came in suddenly?

I got off the subway and looked at the map.

Han Seohyun held my hand without saying a word.

At that time, Eunha unconsciously thought that she was very pretty.

Since I couldn’t say it out loud, I was playing around and ended up pinching her hand.

Eunha rubbed the back of her hand, which had turned reddish.

In fact, it only took a moment to rub.

Because she rubbed it.

“I’m holding your hand.”

“however?”

“It’s up to me now to decide what to do with these hands. Be nice to me.”

“What the hell.”

Seohyun Han raises her clasped hands.

He then shows that he can pinch his hand at any time.

Eunha chuckled at the sight of her triumphantly acting as if she was holding onto her own leash.

That was when he let down his guard.

She came in with a sigh.

“—Tell me honestly.”

“what?”

“Did you enjoy your date with Hayang last week?” “…….”

“Of course it would have been nice if she was your girlfriend, right?”

A very difficult question.

She may have been joking, but Eunha felt like she was walking on a knife’s edge.

Whether you say it was good or not.

Eunha could tell that no matter what answer she gave, the initiative would pass to Han Seohyun.

I already had a great experience last week.

“Hey, what does it matter? The most important thing is that I’m on a date with you right now, isn’t it?” “hmm….”

As a result, Eunha knew what answer was wise to give.

He evaded the question with an exaggerated slyness.

Han Seohyun seemed to be thinking about something as she stared into his eyes.

Eventually she said—.

“—Now you really have two legs. You can cleverly avoid it like that.”

“…Isn’t it too much for the person who straddles me to say that?”

Seohyun Han clicked her tongue.

Eunha stuck her tongue out.

The situation in which Han Seohyun was selling herself was so unfair.

Either that or not─.

“—I’ll pretend I was fooled and move on. That’s right, the most important thing is that I’m dating you like this.”

Seohyun Han giggled.

While seemingly scolding him, she let out a pleasant laugh.

☆

Unlike the underground market, the player market was a market that players used legally.

This was the reason why Eunha brought Han Seohyun without feeling any hesitation.

“Originally, I was going to come with Dojun. If Dojun is at this level, he should be able to enter any auction house.”

“But since I was available, I decided to go on a date as well.”

“He said he was going to become an administrator. That’s because he wanted to show me at least once how the industry works.”

“No excuses.”

“That’s not an excuse.”

“I’ll assume that’s not the case.”

There are several player markets.

However, most high-quality products were gathered at COEX in Seoul.

Naturally, the quality of the goods displayed at the auction, which only takes place twice a year, could be said to be much better.

So it was natural that players would come from all over the country to participate in the auction in the first half of the year.

“—From here on, you can only enter by showing me your membership card.”

There is no entry limit to the Player Market.

However, there were entry restrictions when participating in the auction held inside the market.

Additionally, auctions held in various locations had different entry restrictions.

“Here you go.” “…Confirmed. I hope you have a great day today.”

“As expected, it’s Sirius.”

“You’re Sirius too.”

“What am I Sirius? My father works there.”

“If you marry me, won’t you end up becoming Sirius?”

“Yes, I lost.”

“Where should I go?”

“I have to see it now.”

The product Eunha was planning to buy at this auction was of the highest grade.

Naturally, the entry conditions had to become more stringent.

It wasn’t an auction he could participate in as he wasn’t even a player yet.

If it weren’t for the power of the Sirius Group.

In the end, Eunha was able to enter the auction house as Han Seohyun’s companion.

A lot has come.

Player Market Level 1 auction house.

He quickly glanced at the players gathered at the auction house.

There were quite a few familiar faces.

They could be said to be his seniors.

“Let’s go and sit over there.” “huh.”

As he looked at the players.

The players also looked at the galaxy.

He made eye contact and bowed his head to them as if showing courtesy.

Then, he took Han Seohyun with him and settled down in a place that was as out of sight as possible.

And after a while─.

[─From now on, we will start the auction for the first half of the 13th year of the year.]

The auction has begun.

It is a difficult elixir to obtain, and artifacts, skill stones, etc. were put up for auction.

Each time, players raised their hands and engaged in a bidding war to win the prize.

There was no product that was not successful, and the product sold out quickly as soon as it was put up for auction.

That’s how valuable the products were at first-class auction houses.

And then time passes again─.

─It came out.

Finally.

The product Eunha had been waiting for came onto the stage.

“”””… … .””””

[I think everyone here probably knows this. Yes, this is a phantom beast egg.]

Pure white egg.

The egg, which was about the size of a finger and a half, had mana swirling around it.

Eunha smiled as she looked at the egg.

[This egg discovered on Mt. Bibong in Gyeongbuk is presumed to be an egg influenced by the 8th tier monster, Fire Rat.]

The auction host explained about Hwansu’s egg in a sad tone.

The explanation is that it may have been influenced by the Fire Rat, an 8th tier monster.

Players sighed everywhere.

The refund is precious, but… .

Even so, it is difficult to use a phantom beast based on an 8th tier monster.

Eunha knew why they were sighing.

It’s a refund that won’t be very helpful.

Since it’s a phantom beast based on a fire rat, there probably isn’t much use for it other than lighting a cigarette.

Eunha giggled when she heard them whispering.

Well, it’s a good thing for me.

The value of that egg is by no means low.

Eunha could swear.

But I had no intention of saying anything.

If that happens, there will be chaos.

[─Then the auction will begin.]

Among the people gathered here.

The only person who knows the identity of that egg is that it is based on the 3rd tier monster Phoenix.

Eunha smiled brightly.
