89.
The Ghost Detective Do Kyung-soo.
The one who rode the elevator with him was Do Kyung-hye, Do Kyung-soo’s younger sister.
Do Kyung-hye, a buff player, was the quiet type, unlike her popular older brother.
He never appeared on social media or did any media interviews, so there were almost no people who knew that Do Kyung-soo had a younger sister.
‘I felt that it is impossible for siblings to look so different while watching the Do Kyung Soo siblings.’
Sang-Hyeon had seen the two from a distance in the past.
It was definitely different.
Unlike Do Kyung-soo, who has pale-looking pure white skin and contrasting red lips.
Do Kyung-hye had a much healthier look with no makeup on her bronze skin.
It was the same even now.
The two people, whose tastes were completely different, even in their clothing, would have seemed like strangers if they hadn’t said anything directly.
“… … .”
Do Kyung-hye was careful with her words.
He recognized Sang-Hyeon, but soon opened his smartphone and looked in another direction.
The person who actively pretended to know was Do Kyung Soo.
“You, Shin Sang-hyun. You were a resident of Town Gold Agreement?”
“I never thought my younger sister would become my next-door neighbor. It’s nice to meet you.”
Sang-hyun greeted Do Kyung-soo. He didn’t take issue with Do Kyung-soo’s condescending tone.
Compared to Sang-hyun, who is 25 this year, Do Kyung-soo is ten years older. He himself must be aware of the age difference.
Gooooooo.
As the elevator descended to the fifth basement floor, it never stopped once.
Sang-Hyeon also tried to press the button for the first floor, but he missed the timing to press the button because he was engrossed in a conversation with Do Kyung-Soo.
“This is the first time we’ve talked in person, but it doesn’t feel like our first meeting. Maybe it’s because of what happened last time we met at Gangnam Station?”
“I think so.”
“The video was so well-chosen. I don’t know how many times my sister watched it again.”
“Brother… … !”
“I didn’t lie.”
“Anyway, I’m being unnecessarily honest… … .”
Do Kyung-hye blushed and turned away. Her face seemed to be burning up at her brother’s revelation.
Do Kyung Soo asked.
“Is this a good time?”
“Is that you?”
“Who else but my sister would ask if the time is okay here?”
Even Sang-Hyeon, who usually answers right away, had difficulty opening his mouth this time.
Because I never thought I would get to see Do Kyungsoo this close.
Of course, I’ve met many named players so far.
Jo Jin-ho, Shin Tae-ri, Han Hyeon-jeong, Song Gyu-jeong, etc. They are all great people, but they were not the people that Sang-hyeon admired.
But Do Kyung Soo was different.
Even now, and in the past, he was one of the named prosecutors that I always wanted to look up to as a role model.
Do Kyung-soo, who was impeccable in terms of character, manners, and skills, was also the future that Sang-hyun wanted.
So I was shaking.
On the one hand, I also became curious about what kind of person Do Kyungsoo, whom I had always watched from afar, was.
“I was just going for a walk, but I have a lot of time to spare.”
“Walking! It’s a good hobby. Then how about taking my car and going for a drive out of town?”
“Are you talking to men?”
“Hahaha! What can’t you do?”
Sang-hyun also burst into laughter at Do Kyung-soo’s hearty laugh.
This was a reaction from Sang-Hyeon, who liked to move alone both now and in the past.
It wasn’t often that we were in a car together or had a serious conversation.
[It’s the 5th basement floor.]
Meanwhile, the elevator carrying the three people arrived at the fifth basement floor and the door opened.
“Kyung-hye. There’s nothing more to come out.”
“Brother, are you really feeling okay?”
“If it wasn’t okay, I wouldn’t have come to see you. My mother said she would send kimchi tomorrow, so I’ll pick it up as soon as it arrives.”
“Anyway, nagging… … .”
“I’m going. I’ll make sure to say hello to the person who lives upstairs later.”
“See you again, Mr. Shin Sang-hyun.”
Do Kyung-hye hesitated, quickly lowered her plump head forward, hurriedly closed the door, and went upstairs.
It seemed like he had a personality that was the complete opposite of my brother, who was easy to talk to when we first met, perhaps because he had no numbers.
After a while.
Following Do Kyung-soo’s instructions, Sang-hyun and Do Kyung-soo began a drive that was not in their plans, with Do in the passenger seat.
I thought someone like Do Kyung-soo would drive an expensive sports car, but the reality was different.
His car was a compact car that was perfect for driving around without any burden. Its compact size made it cute.
It was nice to see you.
It’s not like you can prove your worth just by spending extravagance.
“Is the car a little broken?”

“Not at all. I like it because it looks frugal.”
“I don’t think it’s a waste of money to invest in a car. With that money, I could upgrade my own specs or the specs of our Swordsman team.”
It was a very Do Kyung Soo-like thought.
I totally agree with you.
Meanwhile, when Sang-hyun saw Do Kyung-soo from the side, he looked even more bloodless than before.
There were even rumors that Do Kyung-soo was a vampire who thirsted for human blood.
Of course, since I never denied or confirmed it until the end, it still remains a secret.
‘You probably have psychedelic skills too.’
The psychedelic skills that Sang-hyun possesses are also found in Do Kyung-soo.
Of course, it is an old relic compared to Sang-Hyeon’s skill that has been changed to Over Psychedelic thanks to skill enhancement.
At least when it comes to psychedelics, Sang Hyun was one step ahead of Do Kyung Soo.
“I’ve heard a lot of rumors and direct information. You really have enviable abilities as a prosecutor.”
“There are quite a few tricks. The depth of the sword is still shallow and insignificant. There is still a long way to go.”
As soon as Sang-hyun finished speaking, Do Kyung-soo stepped on the accelerator and increased the speed of the car heading to the suburbs.
It felt like I couldn’t agree with what he said by not answering right away and just quietly increasing the speed.
“Humility is a passive skill.”
“That’s not wrong.”
Because it was in front of Do Kyungsoo, there was a corner where I had to be more careful with every word I said.
On the one hand, there were parts where he felt that Do Kyung-soo was looking at him as special, so he became more polite.
“Do you know what I considered to be the most important factor when I was forming the Swordsman-Swordsman team?”
“I heard that it depends on whether or not you have an abnormal status skill.”
“That’s right. There are many types of monsters in the dungeon and gate. What’s an effective way to attack these guys? Suppress them with damage?”
Sang-Hyeon shook his head.
Then Do Kyung Soo continued speaking.
“That’s right. There is definitely a limit to how much you can conquer with just your specs, considering the level of the monsters that are being upgraded.”
“you’re right.”
“I thought that tormenting monsters with various status abnormalities was the right answer, and that prediction was not wrong.”
“hmm…….”
“But it’s not that easy to have a skill that can induce an abnormal status. Or even if you have one, it’s only for a short period of time.”
Sang-Hyeon smiled unseen as he examined his skills that were clearly long-lasting and lasted a long time.
Clearly, each and every one of them was a skill with strong ripple effects.
Just Demon Bash alone causes 3.0 seconds of stiffness right now. It even has a 100% chance to extend it by 3.0 seconds.
Do Kyung-soo added.
“But you have a wealth of status ailment options that are rare not only for me but also for our team. To put it simply, you do the work of several of our elite team members by yourself.”
“A single special resource that can replace many people. That’s what you see.”
“That’s right. That’s why you’re special. You’re a combination of several roles in one person.”
“thank you.”
“To be honest, I’m jealous. I don’t have any of those skills. No matter how hard I try, I can’t get what I can’t get.”
Although it could have had a rather bitter meaning, Do Kyungsoo actually found it amusing.
Do you think that having these handicaps will stimulate your desire as a player a little more?
“I am most envious of Do Kyung-soo’s refined swordsmanship.”
“If I put it nicely, it’s refined, but if I put it badly, it’s a bit boring. It has its pros and cons.”
Just like Sang-hyun, who is never satisfied with the present, Do Kyung-soo also seemed to have similar thoughts.
The scent of nature greeted the two people who had reached a point where they were relatively free from the influence of civilization.
A pleasant scent of grass wafted through the slightly open window. It was the wind blowing in from the mountains.
Do Kyung-soo looked at Sang-hyun once, smiled, and continued speaking.
“I only know the sword, so I really like people who use swords. If they’re not my enemy, I consider them all my comrades.”
“Then I guess I’m your colleague?”
“That’s right. That’s right. Because we haven’t become enemies yet.”
I don’t think dichotomous thinking is good, but Do Kyung-soo’s thoughts seemed to have a certain romanticism to them.
“Haha. I have to be careful not to become enemies. I don’t want to become enemies with the best player team in the country.”
“The sword does not lie. The sword stabbed in the farthest places cannot kill anyone. Not even a single fly. It is honest.”
“I agree.”
Magic can cause a lot of damage even when thrown far away, but the sword is simpler than you think.
“You only used swords?”
“Yes. Since I awakened as a player, my life has been devoted to swordsmanship.”
The swordsmanship career of Sang-Hyeon that others see is at most two years. That’s exactly how long the player’s era has been going on.
However, if you include Sang-Hyeon’s previous life, it’s actually 32 years. Of course, it’s a secret that can’t be told to anyone.
“Even so, it’s only been two years. It’s barely the same time since I last held the handle of the sword. Isn’t it like taking baby steps?”
“you’re right.”
“Haha! Just kidding, just kidding. I think he has a lot of potential to become timber. No, he already is.”
I knew it was a joke so I took it as a joke, but Do Kyung Soo quickly changed the subject to a compliment.
It seems like you’re the type of person who finds it hard to say hurtful things to others.
“I always try to make an effort. I’m also wary of slacking off.”
“Okay, good. That was a long rambling. I have one thing I’d like to ask you.”
“As much as you want.”
“Do you have any plans to participate in a large-scale attack together with our Sword Demon-Sword God team?”
“Are there any conditions?”
“Not at all. You don’t need to join our Swordsman-Swordsman team, nor do you need to pay a fee. You’re just participating as a mercenary. And one more thing.”
“hmm?”
“I promise to treat you with respect as a mercenary. I will give you full support just like I would a team.”
“You mean things like renting equipment or artifacts?”
“That’s right. I’m just saying that I won’t make chains that will bother you, Shin Sang-hyun.”
It was a very meaningful proposal!
Do Kyung Soo’s team is not a team that you can easily join just because you want to.
If it was determined that the team was not needed, even named players like Jo Jin-ho and Shin Tae-ri could not join the team.
But it was the leader of the team who personally made the offer to join as a mercenary.
This was a decision that could never have been made without Do Kyungsoo’s confidence in himself.
“What kind of dungeon is it?”
“First of all, there are many candidates. However, I would like to tell you that there is a 100% chance that it will be a large-scale attack.”
Large-scale attack.
This is a completely different format from the dungeon and gate raids that Sang-Hyeon has done so far.
Once you enter, it is a very large-scale project that will require you to invest at least one to two weeks in conquering it.
Even the number of accompanying porters is more than 2.5 times the total number of players.
‘This is a really good opportunity.’
I absolutely did not want to miss it.
Sang-hyun clenched his fists and expressed his intentions to Do Kyung-soo more actively than ever.
“I really want to participate.”
