Jeong Hye-Yeon, who was in Louiseâs office, came out with a face that looked like she was about to burst into tears and ran to Jun-woo, who was approaching her.
âSIR!â
âlong-time⊠⊠.â
Jeong Hye-Yeon hugged Jun-woo tightly and cried.
âUgh⊠Are you okay now? Sir?â
âOh, yes, itâs fine. Letâs go in⊠⊠.â
âAh, yes⊠⊠.â
Eumeria, who looked at it from behind, frowned slightly.
âDad is popular.â
âWhat is that girl?â
âIt will be on our side. But itâs too weak.â
Jun-woo went into Lewisâs office and looked back.
Seeing Leon with one more head sticking out, Jun-woo gave the order.
[Leon, Eumeria, I will send someone to you, so go to the cafe over there and sit quietly.]
Thanks to the alchemistâs knowledge, Jun-woo could command the golem he had made with just a ritual.
Leon and Eumeria went straight to the cafe and sat down.
After sitting without an order for over twenty minutes, a staff member approached me and asked.
âAre you a guest over there?â
Leon and Eumeria looked at the staff.
âCan I help you with the order?â
Leon asked.
âorder?â
âYes, sir. You have to order a drink and drink it.â
âOh yeah? Give me that too.â
âIf you say that⊠Are you talking about iced americano?â
âyes.â
âCan I have one?â
Eumeria replied.
âYeah.â
Coffee was made, and the staff called for Leon and Eumeria, but they only looked out the window.
âThe guest over there⊠⊠.â
The staff brought coffee and put it on the table as if nothing special.
âHow can I help you with the calculations?â
âCalculation?â
âGold, cash, or credit cards are acceptable.â
They had no gold.
Instead, there were countless crafting materials.
âCan I give you adamantium?â
âThe guest material item is⊠⊠.â
Leon took out an adamantium and held it out.
âIf itâs not enough, Iâll give you more.â
âOh, no⊠thank you!â
The price of Adamantium rose to over 5 million gold.
A thousand cups of coffee was enough to drink.
âIf you need anything more, please tell me!â
Leon looked around at the people around him and put his mouth to the straw-like them.
Upon inhalation, all liquid in the cup disappeared instantly, leaving only ice in the cup.
âOh, itâs delicious. Give me one more!â
At Leonâs sudden cry, the eyes of the cafe people turned to Leon.
âFeel free.â
And some people laughed.
âBon appetit.â
âWait, just give me four more.â
The staff hurriedly brought 4 of them and put them on the table.
Eumeria also took out one of them, drank it, and nodded.
âItâs delicious.â
Leon frowned and looked at Eumeria.
âWhy are you eating? I did it differently.â
âDidnât you see the boss sharing something?â
âOh, is that so? Iâm sorry.â
Leon drank 12 cups of coffee while sitting.
âGive me that, that, that!â
Leon started eating cheesecake and chocolate cake without any choice.
âWell⊠Shall I stop eating?â
Leon stopped only after 30 plates of cake pieces had piled up on the table.
Then a woman approached.
âthere⊠Leon-sama, Eumeria-sama?â
âWho is it?â
âWho are you?â
The woman was Jung Hye-Yeonâs friend and Lewisâs counselor.
âAh, Iâm Na-Rin Park, who works as a counselor for Louise. The representative told me to take the two of you to the hotel.â
âyes?â
Jun-woo gave the order while looking at the cafe through the window sill.
[Leon, Eumeria. Let me follow a person named Na-rin Park.]
Immediately, Leon and Eumeria rose.
âLetâs go.â
âYes, this way⊠⊠.â
Jun-woo sent Leon and Eumeria to the hotel and asked Hye-Yeon Jeong.
âHyeyeon, have you ever taken tutoring?
Hyeyeon Jeong was a graduate of Seoul National University.
âYeah? Yes. I once did a little part-time job.â
âHave you tried it in the lower grades of elementary school?â
âNo, middle and high school students⊠Thatâs why⊠⊠.â
âIâd like to ask you for some tutoring. No, education.â
Jeong Hye-Yeon asked, seemingly puzzled.
âEducation?â
âYes, have you ever heard of homunculus?â
âYes, I have heard of it.â
âI made it.â
Jeong Hye-Yeon reacted in disbelief.
âYes?!â
âIâd like to ask you to teach me for a few days. Because the only person I can trust is Hyeyeon.â
âah⊠Yeah⊠⊠.â
âLetâs go.â
Jun-woo took Jeong Hye-Yeon to the hotel.
In the hotel room, Leon and Eumeria looked at Jun-woo and Jeong Hye-Yeon as they entered.
âDad, who is that person?â
âI told you to call me Hyung, Leon.â
âAh, mistake.â
âHe will educate you.â
Hyeyeon Jeong greeted me with an awkward smile.
âAh, hello⊠⊠.â
âBrother, arenât you too weak to educate us? Are you hiding your mana?â
Jun-woo smiled softly.
âItâs not like that. You donât even need to know about this world. You have to know what not to do.â
âUm, okay.â
âListen well. I think it is me.â
Eumeria replied.
âOkay, sir.â
Jun-woo looked at Eumeria with a smile and asked.
âEumeria, how about coming out?â
âlike! There are many things I donât know, so I want to know them one by one.â
âthank god. He will help you a lot.â
âYes, I will study hard.â
âThen Iâll take care of you, Hyeyeon.â
Hyeyeon Jeong nodded her head with a worried face.
âIâll try.â
And looking at the two of them, he said awkwardly.
âCome on, please. Leon-sama, Eumeria-sama.â
âyes.â
âThank you.â
Jun-woo looked at his watch and said,
âThen Iâm getting training. Donât come out until I call you, and stay here.â
âOkay, bro.â
âOkay.â
As Jun-woo went outside, Eumeria looked at Jeong Hye-Yeon and asked a question.
âAre you and the boss a couple?â
âOh, no. Itâs an employee, an employee. Just a staff.â
Eumeria said with a bright smile.
âUh, staff. Like that. Well then, please!â
âYeah! Eumeria-sama, first⊠⊠.â
Hyeyeon Jeong was at a loss as to where to start.
* * *
There were many reporters and people still standing in the hotel lobby.
As Jun-woo walked between them, the reporter hurriedly asked.
âWere you really locked up in Mt. Gwanggyo?â
Jun-woo looked at the reporter and paused, then answered once.
âYes, that is correct.â
In response to Jun-wooâs answer, the reporters began to press the shutter.
When I heard the answer, I thought it was an opportunity, so the question became urgent.
âAre you just out?â
âYou said you were in another room. Could you show me?â
âWhat items did you go to another space?â
Jun-woo walked without answering.
âYouâve been locked up there for a long time. Donât you resent the government and large guilds?â
Jun-woo didnât answer and ran slightly in the empty direction.
The reporters who could follow them followed, and the ordinary reporters who couldnât keep up sighed.
Jun-woo, who returned to Lewisâs office, met Walker.
âIâm glad that you look okay.â
âThank you for your hard work.â
Jun-woo was able to hear a little about Jung Hye-Yeon in the past.
âNo, I was just doing business. In fact, I secretly bought the Magic Stone.â
Magic stone was Jun-wooâs primary material.
The number of magic stones Jun-woo will use in the future will be enormous, as he will be used for many robots and homunculus.
âAh, Ma Jeong-seok⊠Well done.â
âPlease donât be too resentful. Still, I gave up a lot of money to move to Scudo.â
âItâs resentment. Thanks to you, I was able to get out safely⊠I owe you a lot. Thank you.â
Jun-woo bowed his head to Walker once.
âLike I said, I was just doing business. I think the lost part will be filled enough with this one day. And since there was no battle, Yokichi-sama said that he would return a lot of ingredients, so donât worry too much.â
âI donât know how to repay you. Please also say thank you to Fabregas.â
Walker asked with a satisfied smile.
âCan you give me a thank-you note with a deal with Fabregas?â
âYou mean a deal?â
âItâs a deal based on the priority of production.â
Priority was usually to make the guildâs request the first priority when receiving a production request.
âAs you know, countless items are destroyed daily on the front lines, and recipes are sometimes obtained. The work of Russian blacksmiths is always saturated, but in terms of skills, some things are lacking compared to Korea and Japan, and it takes a long time to receive a request. Could it be possible?â
âOh, I will. Instead, I would like only Epic + Rating. Instead, in return for this incident, I will not receive any commission from the members of the Fabregas Guild.â
It was too wasteful for Jun-woo, who had reached level 94, to create an epic.
âThank you so much for doing that. It will definitely be of great help to the wires. Thanks to you, I will give the Master a shout-out.â
âRather, I thank you for driving the work.â
From Epic+ and above, it was a good thing for Jun-woo, who had to expand his business to the world because he lacked a sense of work if he received a request only in Korea.
Walker secretly looked at Jun-woo and asked.
âPerhaps⊠Are you planning to join Fabregas and go to Russia? My mind is focused on the front lines, so I canât say itâs better than Korea, but⊠If itâs Fabregas, Iâll be able to protect Jun-woo.â
Jun-woo answered that part without any hesitation.
âThanks for the suggestion, but I donât speak Russian. sorry.â
Jun-woo had no intention of going abroad.
There were many things I wanted to do while remaining in Korea.
Above all, all the quests created in units of 10 levels had to be solved within the gate that did not deviate significantly from Seoul.
Clearly, this was closely related to his occupation and the region.
That was the biggest reason why Jun-woo couldnât leave Korea.
Walker seemed to have his own ideas, so he didnât recommend it anymore.
âHaha, I see.â
Jun-woo looked over Walkerâs right shoulder.
Initially, there was no guild mark on Walkerâs shoulder.
But it happened.
If the silver shield was Fabregasâs guild mark, Walkerâs guild mark had a + over Fabregasâs security.
âBy the way, Mr. Walker, whatâs your relationship with Fabregas?â
âAh, now you can think of it as doing diplomatic work in Fabregas. I got a dwarfâs pocket and went around a lot as a material dealer, so Iâm working on a related job. We created this guild because we can no longer accept Fabregasâ guild members.â
âah⊠okay.â
Although Jun-woo did not know, Walker was a very trusted person within Fabregas.
Walker looked at Jun-wooâs hair and said as if wondering.
âLooks like youâve been through a lot. I can see some gray hair at the root.â
âOh, is that so?â
âThen let me rest. On behalf of Fabregas, I wish you all the best in the future, Jun-woo.â
âThank you again.â
Walker left, and Jun-woo looked at his hair in the mirror.
Soft gray hairs were growing all over the place at the root.
âIs it because I havenât been able to eat well?â
beep-
âSir, people have come from the Blacksmith Association.â
âTell me to come in.â
The executives of the Blacksmithâs Association entered Jun-wooâs representative office.
The President of the association was nowhere to be seen.
Jun-woo knew the reason at first glance.
The President of the Blacksmithâs Association tried to apply pressure on the 5th guild to save Jun-woo.
However, three of the vice presidents were Daehan, and many other blacksmiths of the 5th guild, so they did not follow the association president.
The blacksmiths said they were trying to save the dead, accusing the association president of being old and ultimately impeached.
They were the blacksmiths who came here now.
People with the marks of Daehan, Gold Coin, and Water Guild came in.
Lee Sang-Baek, vice president of the association and blacksmith of Daehan, opened his mouth.
âIâm sorry. We thought you were really dead. Otherwise, we would also have agreed with the associationâs President.â
âHow is the president of the association?â
âYou should win the lottery. Theyâre the ones weâre going to kill. Iâm really sorry.â
They were constantly apologizing.
Jun-woo said bluntly.
âIt should never happen again.â
âSure. Donât do that, And⊠Donât leave the studio in a remote place⊠A place is a place, so I watched with my eyes open so they would take care of it.â
The vice president of the Geumhwa Association came forward to help.
âSecret workshops in the mountains are dangerous. How about moving to the city center?â
I had to rebuild the workshop quickly.
He hadnât yet decided where to go.
Then, Lee Sang-Baekâs phone rang.
âWhat? I see.â
When I hung up the phone, Lee Sang-bank said,
âCan you turn on the TV for a moment?â
Jun-woo turned on the TV in the office.
On the screen was Joo Han-Cheol, the deputy master of Korea and the President of Korea.
âMy fellow citizens. I would like to express my deepest apologies for not being able to quickly rescue Korean producer Lee Jun-woo by mistaking the body. In the future, the government will select a special production area to prevent this from happening and cooperate with the five major guilds to protect the producers so that there are no problems for the producers. Once again, I would like to congratulate producer Lee Jun-woo on the safe survival of the military, and I would like to express my deepest apologies.â
Silence followed for a moment.
Lee Sang-Baek repeatedly apologized.
âWeâre really sorry too⊠⊠.â
Lee Sang-Baek looked at Jun-wooâs face and said cautiously.
âI know I need to build a new workshop, so how about going over there? Itâs been a saying for a long time, but now it seems like itâs going to be implemented.â
When I thought that I was working with the blacksmiths of the 5th guild and making them under their protection, Jun-woo felt disgusted.
They turned away from themselves, and they were a people who would rather have died.
Jun-woo answered calmly.
âI will take care of the workshop. Great success is achieved when it is made in a place that is comfortable for you. Isnât it? Seniors.â
They coughed a little at Jun-wooâs words that seemed to stand up.
Lee Sang-Baek nodded and said.
âHmm⊠I donât either⊠However, please donât stay too far from the city center.â
Jun-woo didnât really want to hear their advice.
âAll right. I have been pushed back by a lot of things, seniors.â
âah⊠yes. Iâm going to stop. Anyway, congratulations on your safe return. Iâm delighted. It cools well⊠See you again.â
âGo in.â
Jun-woo lightly lowered his head.
As they went, Jun-woo thought about the location of the workshop.
The mountain has a dangerous side, so I thought of going into the crowded city center.
Jun-woo looked towards Songpa, managed by the Poongrim Guild, the fourth largest in Korea.
His level 80 and level 90 quests were related to the Songpa Gate over there.
-beep.
âThe president of the Sewing Association has come.â
-beep.
âThe president of the Handicrafts Association has arrived.â
