“By the way, how is he doing?”

“… Are you talking about the youngest master? Same as before. There is nothing else to report.”

After a brief pause, the chief of staff responded quickly.

It was because I had to think for a moment about who the ‘that guy’ that came out of Lee Cheol-jun’s mouth was.

“Then what did I ask you to find out?”

“Within the information analytics team, it was unanimous that it was impossible. At that time, it is true that the Lord gave the master a mask of illusion, but the conclusion is that the player who has cleared the entrance quest to the Tower of Trials will not be able to demonstrate the same skill.”

“right. Obviously, the theory is that I can’t produce enough skills.”

Lee Cheol-jun’s eyes narrowed.

He stroked his chin and fell into his thoughts.

His suspicions went away, but there was no confirmation.

His sense of living as a player for ten years was insisting.

The battle in front of the Tower of Trials was special.

It was a battle that exploded the experience accumulated through numerous battles.

It was impossible for his youngest son, who had just awakened, to do it.

“What about the magic stone and blood sample he took?”

“I’m guessing it might be using a skill that uses blood as a medium. However, those skills are not the kind that directly help in combat, so they say it has nothing to do with the player in the video.”

“Then is there nothing special about it?”

“Yes, it is.”

The chief of staff answered with confidence this time.

He has been watching the growth of his youngest son from the beginning to the present.

Therefore, he did not understand Lee Cheol-joon’s association with an unknown player and his foolish youngest son.

“Is that what everyone thought?”

However, Lee Cheol-jun had a different opinion from the information analysis team and the chief of the secretary.

He did not cut the buds of doubt in haste.

It was because he clearly remembered the conversation he had in his study that day.

He would have begged him for more pocket money if he was a greedy, immature fool.

However, Dohyun showed a completely unexpected reaction.

“There’s a saying that’s called nangjungjichu.”

“yes?”

“Who knows if an awl in his pocket could be blunting a point on his own? So let’s try it.”

“exam… What do you mean?”

The chief of staff had a face that he did not understand.

Cheol-Jun Lee put a deep smile on his lips.

“Gangnam Station. Let’s just see what happens there.”

The news of the large-scale quest made the Republic of Korea buzz.

Unlike other quests, large-scale quests also affect the general public.

If the players do not solve the situation, various disasters may sweep the entire country.

But crises always call for the birth of a new hero.

As in the past, people believed that a new faction, a new player, would emerge to overcome the new crisis of a large-scale quest this time.

And eagerly awaited their appearance.

“This concludes the report.”

The chief of staff finished his speech by lightly banging a pile of data on his desk.

Do-hyeon, who was on the other side, frowned.

“So, to recap, did your father tell you to join the dungeon raid team to break a large-scale quest? Gangnam Station?”

“Yes, it is.”

The chief of staff responded very clerically.

And Dohyun, who read those eyes, clicked his tongue in his heart.

The pitiful attitude towards the manna was clearly revealed.

The chief of staff was Lee Cheol-joon’s assistant and supervised all major events of Lee Sega.

For him, his evaluation of Do-hyeon had to be thin.

“Why the hell is your father?”

“I do not know. If you want to know more, how about visiting the Lord?”

“You don’t know?”

Dohyun showed an outright distrustful attitude.

The chief of staff took it lightly and responded as if it was insignificant.

“I am the one who knows everything inside the Lord.”

“Are you telling me to die in it?”

“Please. Now that you have become a player, I think it means that you have to find your own part and devote yourself to it.”

“Do you really believe me?”

“What else can you not believe? The Lord has a special regard for you as a son.”

I hate DohyunThere was, but the chief of staff was not the one who made up a lie.

Dohyun knew it too.

If Do-hyeon were not for Lee Cheol-jun’s bloodline, he would have been thrown down the street right away.

the bloodline of the family.

That alone allowed Do-hyeon, a foolish man, to survive in this relentless world of nothingness.

But is Lee Cheol-jun special to Do-hyeon?

Dohyun couldn’t agree with that.

He only helped maintain dignity to the last, and there was no reason for recognition in other areas.

It was just close to giving them away because they were my children.

‘Well, it’s a proposal that’s not bad for me anyway.’

He grumbled at the chief of staff, but it was a good offer for Do-hyeon.

In the first place, the ant spawning grounds should have been located in a quiet place in Gangnam-gu.

However, perhaps because of Do-hyeon’s intervention, an ant spawning site was unexpectedly created at Gangnam Station.

Because of this, Dohyun was thinking about it for a while.

Anyway, entering Gangnam Station for the first time became difficult.

So he was waiting.

When the dungeon attack team entered Gangnam Station, Dohyun was also planning to sneak in to target that time.

However, he had no reason to say that he lays a rug in this way.

He thought he would be grateful.

“Tell me I’m not going.”

“no. The youngest master must go.”

“You want me to be quietly dragged away and die? I just woke up, I!”

“I am only conveying the will of the Lord.”

“Damn it… … !”

But he had to be bounced off at least once as an idiot.

Dohyun tried to spit out words that didn’t even make sense to her heart.

‘You want to test me?’

Dohyun erased the image of the chief of staff in front of me from his mind.

In the place where the chief of staff disappeared, Lee Cheol-jun, who was sitting with his eyes down, appeared.

Cheol-Jun Lee is looking at him.

After breaking the blank wall quest, what is the reason for sending Do-hyeon, who has no track record, to Gangnam?

could easily guess.

Do-hyeon became suspicious, so he made a plate to guess what he was going to do.

‘I’m rather fortunate. Thinking about me means I’m not sure yet.’

He really liked the cushions laid out, and Dohyun was satisfied inside.

“Then I’ll just go.”

The secretary-general left quietly.

In the meantime, his eyes were cold and filled with contempt.

However, Do-hyeon was immersed in his thoughts and did not notice his eyes.

He was just busy thinking about the difficulties he had to overcome in the future.

Of course, the chief of staff would be dissatisfied with even such an appearance.

He didn’t look like he just ran away and rolled his hair while sleeping.

*

Jongno, the center of Seoul.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is the center of Korean history and culture.

A line of luxury sedans lined up at such a luxury hotel in Jongno.

Everyone who got out of the car disappeared to the hotel, guided by the hotel staff.

And there was someone watching the scene from the hotel opposite.

It was a simple theory of the Black Stone Corps.

“Is there an agreement?”

Dan Eun-seol, who looked out the window, turned his head.

The view of the room behind her was reminiscent of the company’s temporary conference room.

Several laptops were placed on the desk set up for work.

A mountain of papers invaded not only the desk, but also the sofa.

A dozen people were quietly working in a room that cost more than 10 million won just for one night.

“The general consensus is that an agreement has been reached. If things go wrong, a major disaster may occur at Gangnam Station, so the government is said to be actively coordinating opinions.”

Shin’s secretary, who was carrying out the Dan Eun-seol, answered quickly.

“Is this reliable information?”

“Yes, that’s right. Information received from a reliable source. It is consistent with the circumstances we have identified so far, so you can trust it.”

“Then it is already decided that a large number of legions will participate as a dungeon raid team.”

“yes. And I will keep it a secret that Gangnam Station is a large-scale quest dungeon. We plan to only control the entry of ordinary citizens and the dungeon attack team will infiltrate by surprise.”

If you control Gangnam Station in this situation, it will be associated with a large-scale quest.It was obvious that it was going to be said.

It was like closing your eyes and screaming.

However, it was better to control the information, as it would only increase confusion if it was made public.

Reporters who sniffed will rush in, and rumors will spread as players enter Gangnam Station.

The only problem was that no one knew how long the information control would last.

Dan Eun-seol was in trouble.

After learning that there was an ant den associated with a large-scale quest under Gangnam Station, the government quickly set up a negotiating table.

The place where the negotiating table was set up was the hotel opposite.

In the secretly prepared temporary negotiating ground, government officials and other powerful forces in the Republic of Korea had gathered.

And among them was the Black Stone Legion.

Nevertheless, she set up a temporary meeting room right next to the negotiating room to collect information separately.

There was another reason why she acted alone like this.

She was due to other competitors in the Legion.

Dan was said to be her successor to the next generation of Seol Yi Corps, and was highly regarded as a next-generation prospect.

However, due to political factors within her corps, she was reluctant to do so.

They were always looking for her place.

Therefore, she could not relax even for a moment in order to overtake her rivals and claim her victory.

She always had to be one step ahead.

She couldn’t just sit still and eat the information she asked for.

“What are the options on our side?”

“Until now, I have performed several quests in dungeons related to ants. Among them, there were several quests that lead to large-scale quests, and some were directly or indirectly related to this discovery.”

“Please make sure that the insiders of the Legion are aware of this fact. so as not to cause any noise.”

“all right.”

Then, Secretary Shin evacuated the other staff who were occupying the hotel room.

She got all the information she wanted.

She no longer had to be here.

She’d rather be prepared for the massive quest to come.

“Oh, and I prepared the materials you mentioned. A list of participants from each faction expected to participate in a large-scale quest.”

“thank you for your effort.”

Dan Eun-seol slowly scanned the data handed over by Shin.

Then she raised her head in surprise.

Because she found a name on the list she never expected.

“Is this for sure?”

Secretary Shin was nervous about what was wrong.

She then made sure there was nothing wrong with the list and shook her head.

“Yes, I checked it over and over again, so there is nothing wrong with it. It’s because we’ve only selected the people mentioned at the meeting.”

“Did this name come up at the meeting?”

Her eyes narrowed with suspicion.

In that list, Lee Do-hyun’s name was proudly included.

It was unfamiliar and foreign.

It’s like a black thing mixed with a white thing.

Those on the list were promising youngsters from each faction.

On the other hand, Lee Do-hyun was not like that at all.

Isn’t he even called Chibu?

It was only natural that Dan Eun-seol felt uncomfortable.

“Clearly, there will be a lot of talented people in the unprecedented times… Isn’t it strange that this person is here?”

“Oh, are you talking about Lee Do-hyun?”

As if he had guessed, the new secretary asked.

“I was also interested in that part, but I couldn’t say anything about it because it’s still only a possibility.”

Dan Eun-seol remembered Lee Cheol-joon’s face.

What kind of work is this greedy tiger of the Mucheonsega planning to do this time?

“I couldn’t have put this man here without thinking. There must be something to be desired.”

A greedy tiger was driving his naughty child into his limbs.

After just waking up, he doesn’t do any activity on him.

why?

If you think about it, it was an extremely difficult problem.

But after thinking about it, I found the answer.

‘Cause there’s something I want to see

He wanted to find something in Lee Do-hyun, even by driving him into a limb.

“You want to test your child?”

Dan Eun-seol’s eyes widened at the words he uttered without knowing it.

It’s like discovering for the first time a sudden ripple in a still pond.
