Episode 254 – Family, China, Escape
It’s been a long time since I’ve set foot on Korean soil.
Hwanung crossed the airport crowded with people.
However, I saw people following him closely.
I didn’t do anything wrong, so all of a sudden?
Hwanung expanded his sense of energy and raised his tension with the thought of possessing the spirit at any time.
Surely, you’re not already aiming for something?
Contrary to his ominous thoughts, those who actually discovered Hwanung were also nervous.
‘That’s right. You’re a summoner, right?’
‘His videos are huge hits. We should definitely recruit him or make friends with him this time.’
The fact that he summoned a dragon to escort the Queen of England has already been featured in the media.
As people around the world enter a new era, they are once again engaged in a fierce sales war.
Naturally, among the numerous climbers, Hwanwoong, the summoner, was the first to be recruited.
“Excuse me. Are you a summoner?”
“Yes, but.”
“Here, I am from Haesin Mountaineering Club. Please contact me sometime.”
“This is… … .”
Hwanung carefully accepted the business card that was handed to him.
A scout from the Haesin Mountaineering Club.
He nodded, said hello, and soon disappeared.
Now that the one who opened the floodgates has appeared, it is natural that everyone starts approaching.
Hwanung was completely unaware of this situation because he was moving around on his Nergo.
Crowds of people flocked to see Hwanung, just like fans who wanted to see a popular celebrity.
“Hello! I am-!”
“I’m from the Minmeori Mountaineering Club too! Please give me your business card!”
“There’s going to be a new law that says every climber has to belong to a club.”
Words overlapped and a chaotic atmosphere was created.
Some of them had already been to the training grounds, and they pushed forward with a strength that was on a different level than that of ordinary people.
The situation was more chaotic than expected, and even security guards began to pay attention.
Even ordinary citizens are wondering, ‘What happened there?’
Hwanung had no choice but to leave the place for the time being.
“I’m sorry. I have to leave for a moment. Please speak to the president of the association or the CEO of our company. Okay.”
[Ice]
Swish, swoosh, swoosh.
Hwanung left the place after conversing with Undain, whom he had summoned in advance.
Those who were surprised by the sudden event just stared blankly at the sight.
“What did you just say?”
“The company representative? Isn’t Mr. Hwanwoong the representative?”
“Ah! That YouTube channel!”
When many people gather, something called collective intelligence is created.
People started to move quickly, and Hwanung, who was watching them from a distance, shook his head.
What the hell is going on?
[I see a few people with power.]
“Yeah. I guess the world really has changed.”
It was terrifying to think that all these people were participants in the game.
Because so many people are going to die.
Hwanung decided to move quickly.
First, check on your family’s safety.
[How have you all been?]
I went into the family chat room to check on each other’s well-being.
Fortunately, the reply came right away.
[Hey, is this Korea?]
[Yeah, I just got in.]
[Be careful. There’s a big fuss about recruiting oppa these days.]
[ok]
[Oh, and I got into college. Hahahahahahaha]
Fortunately, Inyoung seems to have safely entered the business administration department of the best university in South Korea.
I decided to buy something delicious for her to brag about.
Next were the team members.
[Everyone, everything is fine, right?]
[Oh! Boss! No, Director! Long time no see!]
[We are doing well.]
[I’m sorry I haven’t been able to contact you. I have some urgent matters to attend to.]
[It’s okay! But, I’m getting a lot of calls now. ??]
Is it because of the new law?
Hwanung first turned his direction towards the association.
It would be better to get help from Narae rather than a car, so we decided to go that way.
“The world of the protagonist is mysterious every time I see it.”
“It’s both good and bad… … It’s a complicated neighborhood.”
“I want to take my time and look around later.”
“Okay. There are a lot of fun things.”
Narae smiled and stirred the wind.
This is a place where you can use your smartphone, so there’s no need for separate guidance.
Hwanung showed the screen to Narae and said.
“Let’s go this way.”
“… … Yes. I confirmed it.”
She was so smart that she flew straight to Gangnam.
Passing through Incheon Bridge, we passed through Seoul’s traffic jam in an instant.
“Association President.”
“Hmm. What’s going on?”
“Hwanung has come.”
“Huh?”
suddenly?
The association president, who was busy reviewing legal issues, hurriedly stood up.
A visit from Hwanung, whose stock price is exploding these days.
With so much to convey, his visit was very timely.
“Bring him here quickly. There’s a lot to convey.”
“All right.”
“You came at a perfect time. By the way… … Taekyung, what should I do with this guy?”
Association President Taejin was worried and worried again today.
Taekyung, who cared for me like a real brother and helped me along the way.
It was so frustrating not being able to catch his escapades.
It would be nice if Hwanung came up with a refreshing solution, but that would be like a dream.
He is already a busy person with many things.
If you assign more difficult tasks, it will be a burden both mentally and physically.
Taejin’s idea was to find a solution by any means necessary.
‘Just wait a moment. I’ll take care of some urgent matters and then come back… ‘
I had to move quickly to see Taekyung’s face in person.
His eyes were scanning the documents diligently even as he was preparing to greet the guest.
After a while, Hwanung came in.
“Welcome. It’s been a while.”
“Quite some time has passed already. I was up in the tower so I didn’t really know what was going on here.”
“Haha, there have been a lot of changes. I have a few things to explain. Please take a seat.”
Hwanung sat quietly and waited for Taejin to speak.
Before that, there was something to show you.
Lux’s gemstone.
Since I brought a lot of raw stones, I plan to give one to Taejin.
This will open up new horizons.
An energy source 1,000 times more powerful than the highest grade Lux.
I wondered how big of a ripple it would create if I announced it to the world.
“Before that, I have something to show you.”
“What is it?”
“Have you heard of the gemstone of Lux?”
“yes?”
Not a top-quality look, but a raw stone?
Taejin looked puzzled.
Kuung-.
A giant ball-shaped Lux ??appeared in the subspace with a heavy sound.
Taejin’s eyes grew wide when he saw that.
It was a natural thing.
Because this was a higher-level energy source.
“What the… … is this… … .”
“Isn’t that amazing? I went into the tower and was saved. And… … I think more towers like that will be created and discovered.”
“Even on Everest, no lux of this level has ever been found… … .”
“How many stages have been conquered so far?”
The currently conquered floors are only stage 520.
You said you kept challenging the boss there, but were failing.
Out of over 8,000 stages, I was only able to clear over 500 of them.
There was still plenty of time, and no one knew what materials would come out of it or what enemies would appear.
If you go up further, you might get another one.
“Probably the higher you go on the Everest scale, the more similar things you’ll find.”
“Hmm… … This definitely seems like it’ll bring about a big change.”
“Right? And… … I think the problem with Taekyung will be resolved well.”
“Is that true?”
I thought there wouldn’t be anything more surprising, but it seems not.
This news was a much bigger surprise than Lux’s ore.
Hwanung confidently explained what had happened.
I thought this might be a bit of a long story.
Somewhere in South Korea.
Taekyung returned to South Korea with Sirga.
Unfortunately, he did not arrive on the same plane as Hwanung.
Because he arrived here on Sirga’s private plane.
“Originally, this was the Korean branch of the church… … .”
“There’s nothing here. It looks like it’s been neglected for a long time.”
The two arrived at a small building in Hannam-dong.
It was one of the neighborhoods scheduled for redevelopment.
Considering the land price and other factors, this place had been chosen as a site for the church for a long time… … .
Actually, there was no one there.
What on earth is going on?
“You are the leader of the church and yet you didn’t know about this?”
“Yes. I didn’t have time to pay attention to the small countries in the East, and they seemed to have cleverly hidden the information. That’s why I realized it too late.”
“It’s not like it’s completely nonsense… … .”
The sect certainly had enormous power, but it was not omnipotent or omniscient.
That is why Sirga also could not know what was happening inside South Korea.
Besides, the messenger was hostile to them, so I couldn’t ask him.
“If it was a mistake to leave the management entirely up to the branch manager, then it was a mistake. But I didn’t think they would hit me in the back of the head so blatantly… … .”
“Philip, are you saying he is not a member of the Order? Or… … .”
“The Philip you’re talking about is the current professional climber ranked 10th in PvP, right?”
“you’re right.”
If not him, who would lead the religious community in South Korea?
Sirga let out a small sigh.
okay.
I was wondering where it went wrong, and that’s where it started.
“Philip was not originally supposed to be the head of the Korean branch. However, there was confusion over the personnel appointments.”
“That means… … .”
“I have never received a report from the general manager. I guess there is a separate line there.”
“Isn’t this a bigger problem than you thought?”
Sirga nodded slowly.
Probably [that type of person].
Civil war… … .
Perhaps, it occurred to me that there might be a fight over the throne.
Now is the right time, as no outside forces are intervening.
After speaking to Master Hwanung, I decided to take action immediately.
“For now, I think it would be best for us to go after Philip.”
“Is there any way to find out where it went?”
“Of course.”
This side also has something prepared in its own way.
Sirga made a phone call to someone to check something.
“Do you have any idea where it is… … Okay, I see. What a coincidence.”
“Where is Philip?”
“Headed to China. It seems like the Master is headed there too… … That’s good.”
China… … .
Come to think of it, Philip was particularly close with Chinese climbers.
Could it be that there is some kind of connection between you and me?
The doubts just kept growing.
Ppoduk-.
Tae-kyung thought of Philip and his younger brother who had fallen for his trick.
If there are those who died unjustly, they will be atonement after this is over.
But, we can’t stop now.
‘Philip. I will definitely reveal the truth.’
The two people’s footsteps headed back to the airport.
Because everything will be done in China.
