The interview, which was supposed to be a leisurely chat, ended in an instant because I got a call from Han Hyun-jung .
Of course, all the interviews that could be considered key have been completed. It was a conclusion that neither Sang-hyun nor Park Jung-min were dissatisfied with.
After finishing the interview and before Park Jung-min left, he asked Sang-hyun with a worried expression.
“The last assassination attempt was truly shocking. There will soon be reports about Player Town’s corruption and abnormal order structures.”
“Thank you for your concern.”
“I think moving to Gold East was a good choice. But… … .”
“but?”
“I don’t think hiring a private security guard is a bad idea. I happen to know a good place.”
“Thank you for your concern. But I haven’t felt any threat to my safety yet.”
“If you ever need my help, please let me know. This is my concern as a player.”
“Thank you again.”
I was grateful for Park Jung-min’s thoughtfulness. Even if it was pretense, I was grateful for his thoughtfulness.
“Oh right, by the way, I almost missed one part of the interview. Can you reveal your current level?”
“There’s no reason I can’t do it. I’m 130.”
“omg…….”
Park Jeong-min, who knows to some extent how Sang-hyeon grew up, couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
Sang-Hyeon’s growth is much faster than expected. To the point where I seriously wonder if he’s just bluffing.
“We need to whip ourselves more from now on. There’s still a long way to go.”
Sang-Hyeon Jeong had a calm expression. He had a regretful expression that this was not enough, as he still had a long way to go.
‘With this level of growth, it seems like he definitely has the qualities to become a named player.’
Park Jeong-min was confident.
As a reporter, I have seen countless players and have analyzed their growth by organizing it into data.
Sang-Hyeon is experiencing ultra-fast growth, to the point where he can confidently say that he is in the top 1%.
Not coincidence, but inevitability.
These players don’t have a 90% chance of becoming named players, they have a 100% chance of becoming named players.
‘I guess I’ll have to hold on tight.’
Park Jeong-min’s eyes lit up.
If you keep these connections close, scoops will become a daily routine that is always by your side, like the wind.
I didn’t want to miss it.
* * *
As soon as he broke up with Park Jeong-min, Sang-hyeon headed towards the Hyun-jung building where Han Hyun-jung was.
Because I was invited.
Of course, I didn’t invite you to meet Jeron DeKay, I meant to meet you right after the meeting with him.
The timing was good.
Sang-Hyeon also actively responded because he really wanted to see Jeron D.K.’s face even from afar.
Moreover, since I knew that the conversation would revolve around sponsorship-related proposals, the purpose of the visit was clear.
Meanwhile, while moving, there was a brief phone call with Lee Ga-hee, an employee of the Players Association.
It was an agreement to sell the strategy for the gate that was conquered together with Ham Ji-yeon last time.
So, we decided to discuss this tomorrow. It was expected that we would get a considerable amount of income.
‘Let’s keep the location of Watergate a secret for now. There’s no obligation to share it.’
We have decided not to disclose the gates that were conquered in the 2nd Gaeseong Expedition for the time being.
I was thinking of passing it on later, after I had seen some more personal gain, and then when I judged that its value had declined.
If Sang-Hyeon keeps it a secret, Watergate will remain unknown for years to come.
Hyunjeong Market, where we arrived about 10 minutes earlier than the scheduled time.
As Sang-Hyeon parked his car and came out of the parking lot, a female attendant greeted him as if she had been waiting.
It seemed that he had been waiting earnestly since he had heard from Han Hyun-jung that she would be visiting from the beginning.
“Mr. Shin Sang-hyun! Are you sure?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“I am Park Seon-yeong from Jeon Hyeon-jeong Corporation! I have come to bring in Shin Sang-hyun at the Master’s direction!”
“Can I come in?”
“Of course! The Master is meeting with a distinguished guest. He said that coming and going is not a problem.”
“The distinguished guest… is already here?”
“Yes, they just got here.”
It seemed like Jeron Dkay had arrived.
For some reason, I felt the power of mana particularly strong around the building today, and there was a reason.
Although unconfirmed, it is said that Jeron Decay has the ability to draw in mana.
It was only a guess since I had never personally verified it in my past life, but I definitely had that kind of energy.
For magic players, for whom mana utilization is more important than anything else, the ability to attract mana is truly a ‘fraud’.
This is probably why Jeron DeKy is now considered a true top 10 in the world.
Sang-Hyeon followed Park Seon-Young and quietly entered the building.
Perhaps because the conversation and meeting with Jeron DeKay took place in the lobby, the location I was guided to was unusual.
It was just below the top floor.
The Hyunjeong Building is characterized by an open central area that allows one to look down.
So Sang-Hyeon, who had taken a seat on the railing, could easily look down. The view was clear, so he could see well.
“You may watch. Even His Majesty the King knows of Sang-Hyeon’s existence.”
“It seems like you’re not an uninvited guest.”

“Yes. Because our master has asked for our understanding in advance.”
Park Seon-yeong nodded.
Looking down, the figure of Jerron Dekay was clearly visible, wearing a white robe turned over.
He was wearing a very stereotypical outfit that anyone could tell was a typical wizard’s outfit.
In fact, Jeron DeKay was also known for enjoying cosplay.
Today you could pretend to be a noble white wizard, but tomorrow you could pretend to be a corrupt warlock.
His unique traits and personality were his ability to showmanship and his enjoyment of public attention.
‘The staff is legendary grade. Was it an absolute freezing staff? If you use it wrong once, you will be frozen forever.’
As I recalled my memories, the vivid images of Jerron D.K.’s weapons came to mind.
He is wearing ten rings, all of which are tightly packed, and one of them is an Almighty grade ring.
In a word, it’s crazy specs.
He was also a hero cherished by Britain, receiving all the attention and support of the British Association.
‘The problem is… … it’s not just Jerron Dkay that’s great.’
Sang-Hyeon called attention.
Even in my previous life, I was envious of that person as a role model, so I was a little tempted for a moment.
In fact, there were plenty of other countries whose names surpassed Jerónimy’s fame.
In most advanced countries, there are always one or two super-special named people.
Jeron Dekay is one of them, representing only the UK.
at that time.
Woof! Woof!
Suddenly, for some reason, a strong wave of silence enveloped the entire Hyunjeong Building.
Although it does not create physical changes like the wind, it has the characteristic of creating an unpleasant foreign feeling in the body.
‘Why are you suddenly bragging about your long-term here?’
Sang-Hyeon shrugged his shoulders.
The Silent Wave was undoubtedly a phenomenon created by Jeron DeKay.
This wavelength, which creates absolute silence over a wide area, is also the core ability of the Geron Decay.
Because of this ability, most monsters and players had no choice but to give up the right to attack against him.
Because you can’t use skills while in silence. The only way out is if you have a resistance artifact.
‘I feel it again, but the scope is crazy.’
It was a spectacular sight to see the entire 15-story building enveloped in waves of silence.
Sang-Hyeon, who was not silenced by the title of the Fantasy Tuner, looked down with interest.
at that time.
“Oh my.”
Jeron Dekay, who was on the first floor, made an interesting expression, then quickly flew into the air.
He started to fly freely and appeared in front of Sang-Hyeon, who was standing on the central railing of the 14th floor.
It was a sudden encounter with a named person that even Sang-Hyeon had not expected.
This is the first time in my entire life, past or present, that I have seen it this close!
“Are you immune to silence?”
Although it was a stiff British accent, it was easy to understand.
For Sang-Hyeon, who could speak multiple languages thanks to his experiences in his past life, the language barrier was almost non-existent.
“This is Shin Sang-hyun.”
For a moment, I was speechless, but Sang-Hyeon was the first to announce his name and ask to shake his hand.
Then, while maintaining a stable posture, Jeron Dike shook hands with Sang-Hyeon.
“I’ve known your name for a while now. I heard you’re popular in Korea these days.”
“Compared to you, I am nothing but dust in the wind.”
“Haha. Let’s not use such sad metaphors. Anyway, it’s definitely one of the rising suns in Korea, right?”
“… … .”
“You don’t seem to be the type of person who likes attention! Anyway, I came up here because I was curious since there’s one person who’s immune to silence.”
“It’s not a great ability.”
“That’s right. There’s nothing special about resisting silence. But isn’t it a skill that’s hard to acquire?”
“Is it just a trick?”
“That’s right! If you were a really high level, you’d be considered a slacker! But isn’t that too much for your current level?”
Hwaaaaak!
As soon as he finished speaking, the waves of mana that Jeron was emitting weighed heavily on Sang-Hyeon.
I was only releasing the mana within my body, but that in itself felt like a deep pressure.
Jeron DeKay continued.
“Heh, Mr. Korea’s promising prospect. You should learn to show off a bit.”
Sang-Hyeon burst into laughter at the comment that he shouldn’t be so humble. In fact, it wasn’t wrong.
Srrrrrr.
After completing a stable descent, he continued his conversation with Han Hyeon-jeong on the first floor.
He didn’t even glance at Sang-Hyeon again, as if nothing had just happened.
at that time.
“Mr. Shin Sang-hyun.”
A woman with a husky voice, not Park Seon-yeong who had been there until just now, spoke to Sang-hyeon.
It was Lee Yeon.
‘Han Hyun-jung’s bodyguard.’
Sang-Hyeon recognized her right away.
Although he never made a public statement, I knew from before that he was someone who always stayed by Han Hyun-jung’s side.
“yes.”
“Please wait inside the office while the Master takes care of business. I think it will be more comfortable there.”
Although he never said it would be comfortable, Lee Yeon nailed Sang Hyun’s intentions like that.
It felt like something big was going to happen if I didn’t follow through? I could sense her blatant murderous nature.
Now that my brief encounter with Jeron DeKay was over, there was little reason to dwell on this.
Sang-Hyeon followed Lee-Yeon.
* * *
Perhaps because it was just one floor above, Lee Yeon guided Sang Hyeon up the stairs.
There were no particular complaints, and Sang-Hyeon followed her to the top floor.
However, as I followed along, I felt like there were eyes looking back at me, examining me from start to finish.
At first, I thought it would be like that.
But as time went by, it became more and more blatant and self-deprecating, to the point where it felt uncomfortable.
Sang-Hyeon showed a sharp reaction.
“Did I do something wrong? The way you’ve been looking at me lately has given me the feeling of looking at a criminal or someone of interest.”
It was an unusual reaction for Sang-hyeon, who rarely points out something first. Lee-yeon’s gaze was just as unpleasant.
Then she answered.
“Our Master is a truly kind and pure person. I cannot allow someone with suspicious intentions to be by my Master’s side.”
Lee Yeon’s eyes, hidden between the small gaps created by her long bangs, shone coldly.
It was full of life.
It was a feeling of murderous emotion that could only be felt if it was sincere and not empty boasting.
“Huh, so?”
Sang-Hyeon snorted at the sudden rash action of the escort warrior. Is this how you pick a fight?
At that moment, Sang-Hyeon thought of Han Hyeon-Jeong, who was still working downstairs.
Is this Lee Yeon’s solo action?
No, it won’t be.
It would be a clever ploy to make it look like it was an independent act.
As expected.
“Let’s see if you are a player worthy of the Master’s recognition.”
Lee Yeon crossed the line first.
