âWhat the hell did this punk do while we were in the tomb?â
Ju-Heon read the article with a shocked expression.
The article was full of breaking news about Yoo Jaeha.
Of course, it wasnât on the front page. The front page had information about Ju-Heon as usual.
But on the second page⊠There was a large article about their damn restorer.
âLooks like some interesting things happened while we were away.â
He didnât seem to be believing the story described in the article.
It couldn't be helped, sinceâŠâŠ
âHe did what with the princess of England?â
While Ju-Heon was still inside the Tomb of Pride⊠It was right around then the Divine-Grade artifacts were causing a shitshow.
âMy goodness, is that really that artifact?â
âIt is.â
Yoo Jaeha, who was at the Russian Artifact Fair, was looking somewhere with sparkling eyes.
âIs that the artifact the Captain-nim wanted me to bring back?â
There were leaders from different countries, royalty, Hollywood celebrities, generals, CEOsâŠ
This place was full of important people.
That was why he was feeling small as these people could all squash him into a pancake, butâŠ
âItâs the British princess and prince.â
Ju-Heonâs order was to buy the artifact they had on them.
âHeâs probably going to kill me if I canât do this. Sooob.â
He would probably be killed by the guards before he could even get to the item.
The people around him were whispering at that moment.
âThat is Princess Charlotte of England, right? She's still young.â
âIs that Queen Victoriaâs artifact around the princess's neck?â
âHoly shit, are you for real?â
âThe princess is one thing, but look at the one the prince has on him. That Crow broach. Didn't they say that the broach is some kind of Divine-Grade artifact?â
âThey did. Ah, what did they sayâŠâŠI think they said it was a crow goddess from Irelandâs Celtic mythologyâŠâ
âI think they said it was Morrigan. They said she was the goddess of war and destructionâŠâ
âMy goodness, war? Thatâs unbelievable. How can the prince of a country proudly walk out while wearing such a thing?â
âMaybe heâs making a declaration to the world?â
âHe wants to tell the world that he wants to go back to the colonization eraâŠ?â
The VIPs in the auction house were getting tense.
The English royal family did not have much influence over the world in modern society.
But this was now the Era of Artifacts. The artifact they had in their possession was the problem.
âQueen Victoria and Morrigan's artifacts are indeed a problem.â
Queen Victoria, the Queen during the Great British Empire when the Empire on which the sun never sets held about one fourth of all territories around the world. Queen Victoriaâs artifact could be seen as the artifact being used by the royal family to groom the next Queen.
It was Morriganâs artifact that was the problem.
âQueen Victoria and an artifact of war. It's obviously a provocation.â
The countries near England were extremely tense right now.
Of course, there were some opposite opinions as well.
âThere are talks that both of them are artifacts of abundance.â
âYou mean like how England was at its peak during Queen Victoria's era.â
âThere are talks that Morrigan was a goddess of prosperity as well.â
Either way, the people here were all interested in the prince and princess's artifacts.
It was the same for Yoo Jaeha as well.
âWow, thereâs going to be a lot of competitors. What the hell am I going to do to take their artifacts?â
He couldnât just steal it like his Captain would do.
âAh, do I really need to use the thing I prepared in advance?â
Yoo Jaeha decided to approach the princess first.
But at the same timeâŠ
âYoo Jaeha, we found you! Grab that bastard!â
The official restorers, who had no thoughts of letting Jaeha meet with the British princess, started to become frantic.
But Yoo Jaeha, who probably didn't care about what they wanted, was jumping up and down trying to get the princess to notice him.
âPrincess! Please sell your artifact to me! Your artifact!â
The princess noticed him.
âHuh? That person isâŠâ
She must have recognized him as Ju-Heon's subordinate. She was interested in Seo Ju-Heon.
Of course, the official restorers would not sit back and watch.
âStop him, stoooop hiiiiiiiiiim!â
It was at that moment.
Boom!
Bang!
The auction house suddenly started to shake and the ceiling crumbled.
Bang!
The lighting on the stage fell, windows broke, and it was quite the mess.
The lights all went out at that moment as well.
People started to scream while looking for the exit.
âHoly shit, what the hell?!â
This was not a Tomb Appearance. Yoo Jaeha had followed Ju-Heon around for so long that he instantly realized that a person had done this.
He then heard a man scream.
âUuuuugh!â
It was the sound of someone getting killed.
âNo way!â
He seemed to be right as he started to hear shocked voices all around him.
âKyaaaaaa! General!â
âPolice, call the police! Hurry!â
People fell into states of panic once the backup lights turned on.
It was because there seemed to have been a murder.
âHurry up and block the doors!â
âDon't let anybody out!â
Yoo Jaeha gulped while looking at the general who was killed with his head cut off.
Why?
âA Monarch was instantly killed.â
This was the < Monarch of Criticism > who had recently become a Monarch.
This person was someone who said a lot of radical things, including saying things about how immigrants and refugees were all evil and potential terrorists in the making who needed to be killed.
He should have a Divine-Grade artifact on him, but he was still instantly killed!
That wasn't all.
Yoo Jaeha had seen something. He read about a similar incident in the newspaper!
[Serial killing of artifact users.]
[Will the Russian International Artifact Fair be safe?]
He had clicked his tongue while showing the article to Ju-Heon.
âWow, Captain-nim. This is already the third newbie Monarch who has been killed. Theyâre calling it a serial killing, I wonder who is responsible for it.â
Ju-Heon had said the following after seeing how the victims had been killed.
âI hope it isn't himâŠâŠâ
âHim?â
'Yes⊠A famous artifact you also know a lot aboutâŠâŠâ
Jack the Ripper.
That was what Ju-Heon had said.
Yoo Jaeha then got the chills after feeling a murderous intent behind him.
It was definitely there!
The murderer was behind him!
He was right.
âYouâre Seo Ju-Heon's restorer. And youâre a Monarch.â
He heard a girl's pretty voice.
He was sure about one thing.
âI'm dead.â
Yoo Jaeha immediately activated his artifact as soon as he had that thought.
He had used Salieri's artifact.
Ju-Heon had taken Mediciâs artifact and cast aside Salieri's artifact, but it was still one of the strong artifacts of the 7 Great Tombs.
The woman must have felt the aura of the artifact as she picked her knife up to kill Yoo Jaeha.
But at that momentâŠ
[#$&#!]
Don't touch our young man!
[#$#&!]
Heâs our masterâs subordinate! What the hell are you doing?!
â?!â
The bizarre panties and wooden penis screamed as they surrounded Yoo Jaeha.
The womanâs knife slashed the wooden penis.
Slash!
The penis was cut in half and the panties started to scream.
[$#&#*!]
Aigoo! My wife, my wife! She was cut in half!
The woman looked at these bizarre artifacts for a bit before disappearing.
Maybe she didn't want to deal with these things.
No, it might just be that her goal was not Yoo Jaeha but the other VIPs in the first place.
There was another boom and the stage crumbled before people started to scream.
It was in the direction of the England VIPs.
âUncle! Uncle!â
The British princess was crying while holding the corpse of the prince.
Their artifacts had already been destroyed.
Everybody fell into states of shock and even the restorers could not close their mouths.
âPrince William, the prince has been murdered!â
âKyaaaa! Protect the princess!â
âFind the culprit! Find them!â
Yoo Jaeha knew they would not succeed as he could feel it.
âSheâs not here. Sheâs long gone.â
He was extremely talented at detecting and using artifacts because of Ju-Heon's Spartan-style training.
That was how he was able to know that Jack the Ripper had disappeared.
The princess was holding her dead uncle as she cried.
âUncle, uncle.â
The official restorers and guards didn't know what to do.
It was at that moment. Yoo Jaeha, who didnât really know what to do as he looked at the crying princess, started to speak.
âUmm, excuse me, please donât worry. Your uncle is not dead.â
Yoo Jaeha had nonchalantly walked up to the princess. The official restorers started to glare at him.
His sunbae, Julien, started to shout.
âHey! Yoo Jaeha! Stop with the nonsense. How can you say such bullshit to the shocked princessâŠâ
âNo, I really mean it. I couldn't save the general but her uncle is fine.â
Julien grabbed Yoo Jaeha by the collar.
âHey!â
It was at that moment.
âCharlotte! Is Charlotte safe?!â
A man who was only wearing underwear burst into the party hall.
âMy goodness, it's Prince William!â
âUncle!â
âThen this corpse isâŠ?!â
Yoo Jaeha picked up a chair.
âHey, what are you doâŠ?!â
Bang!
The corpse changed from the shock once it was slammed by the chair.
It was a fake Yoo Jaeha had created with da Vinci's artifact.
âA fakeâŠ!â
The appraisers started to shake, as this familiar sight gave them deja vu of the plane incident.
Julien glared at Yoo Jaeha at that moment. He wanted to know why Jaeha had transformed the prince.
His intentions must have been terrible.
"What the hell are you planning?!â
What else would it be? He had exchanged the prince to a fake on purpose to purchase the artifact from the princess.
If the princess's uncle were to say, âsell the artifact to Yoo Jaeha', he thought that would make it easier to purchase.
Well, it was lucky that he aimed for when the prince went into the restroom and that he put the scary guards to sleep as well. He had been happy that things were going so well, butâŠ
He ended up unexpectedly saving the manâs life.
âTsk. It is good butâŠâ
He couldn't tell them the truth about his scheme.
That was why Yoo Jaeha decided to use the special technique, âmedicine sellingâ he had learned from Ju-Heon.
âTo be honest with you, I sensed that something was weird! I had read an article about how this Artifact Fair would be dangerous. That was why I protected the prince just in case.â
âW, what did you say?â
"I've seen enough assassinations of princes!â
The official restorers and appraisers started to shake in anger.
âProtect my ass! Thereâs no way Seo Ju-Heon's damn subordinate would do something like that!â
"Stop trying to scam us!â
Yoo Jaeha didn't care and just picked up an artifact that had fallen on the ground.
It was the princess's artifact, Queen Victoriaâs artifact, that had been destroyed.
"This is completely destroyed. Should I restore it for you?â
The pretty princess wiped away her tears as she looked at Yoo Jaeha.
"Can you really restore it? Itâs already completely destroyedâŠ!â
âYes, itâs not hard. But in return, could you pleaseâŠâŠâ
But at that momentâŠ
âDon't you dare!â
âPrincess! You can't leave your artifact with a quack like that!â
Julien took the artifact away from Yoo Jaeha.
"This bastard is Seo Ju-Heonâs quack restorer! Your artifact will only end up destroyed!â
âHow can you leave us, the official restorers, aside and ask such a bastard?!â
Their overbearing attitudes and pride were annoying.
The British prince interjected as well.
âYes, that item belongs to the royal family. You canât leave it with a restorer who is in a tomb raiding team with an unknown background.â
âDid you hear that?â
Yoo Jaeha just nonchalantly waved.
âThatâs fine. Feel free to fix it if you can.â
Julian was in disbelief.
âWhat? Of course I can restore something like thisâŠâŠ.â
It was at that moment.
Crack!
Forget being restored, the artifact broke even more.
"What the hell, why won't it be restored?!â
Yoo Jaeha started to snicker.
âHand it over if you can't do it.â
ââŠâŠ?!â
The Monarch of Pushoverness.
This was the moment that the man who had only been known for his association with Ju-Heon would make his debut in front of world leaders, royalty, and celebrities.
Returning to the presentâŠ
[Yoo Jaeha, the Monarch of Pushoverness. Invited to visit the British royal family.]
[Saved the British prince and their treasure.]
[British princess: âI really want to meet Mr. Ju-Heon, the captain of the team.â]
[The Monarch of Pushoverness is receiving scouts from numerous different nations around the world.]
[âYou want to know my desired salary?â]
[The Monarch of Pushoverness: âI'm looking for a girlfriend right now!â]
Ju-Heon was baffled at the different stories about Yoo Jaeha in the article.
There were a lot of things that caught his attention such as the assassination of a skilled general and such, butâŠ
âI didnât know he would really end up becoming the Monarch of Pushoverness.â
âWow, Jaeha instantly became famous.â
Julian tilted his head in confusion before he started to speak.
"But heâs getting scouting offers for his artistic talents? Thereâs even talks about freelancer restoration requests? Is Jaeha going to end up transferring to a different team?â
âExcuse me?!â
âSeo Ju-Heon, what are you going to do? It looks like youâre going to need to get a new restorer.â
Ju-Heon just laughed after hearing Julian tease him.
He then started to call someone.
The person picked up quickly.
[Yes, hello?]
His ego seemed quite inflated as Yoo Jaeha's voice sounded haughty.
As a resultâŠ
[Ah, I donât know who is calling but I'm quite busy right now. I already have enough requests for a whole year and am currently in the middle of an interview. Please donât call me directly next time and contact my manager. Any media appearances will need to be addressed with my manager as wellâŠ]
âA manager, my ass.â
He heard the phone dropping.
His heart must have almost burst out of his chest as he dropped his phone in shock.
Yoo Jaeha started to speak in a shaking voice.
[C, Captain-nim?]
"What are you doing? You little punk.â
[T, this is definitely the Captain-nim's voice! Is that you, Captain-nim? W, what the hell?! I donât know this number!]
âShut up. What did you just say? You are full of requests for the year?â
[Excuse me? Ah, t, t, that, you seeâŠ]
Ju-Heonâs eyes flashed.
âYou. Are you taking jobs on the side aside from working for me? Huh?â
[N, no⊠thatâs not the case!]
Yoo Jaeha looked ready to cry. It was obvious that he was kowtowing on the other side of the phone.
[Aigoo, whose artifact would I touch other than yours, Captain-nim?]
âWhat about the artifact I told you to purchase.â
[Aigoo, I got it. Of course I got it.]
âGood. It looks like I didn't give you enough work if you can talk about girlfriends, interviews, artistic talents and other bullshit. I feel like I'm wasting the 300 million dollar salary I'm paying you.â
Yoo Jaeha started to scream.
[Not at all, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! You're really not wasting your money!]
Ju-Heonâs eyes flashed like tiger eyes as he sat with his legs crossed.
âThen return immediately before I kill you for breach of contract. I'll give you one hour.â
[Iâll be there in 30 minutes! I will tell you everything once I'm backâŠ! Iâll even introduce you to the princess so pleeeeeeeease!!!]
A crying Yoo Jaeha hung up as he started to run.
Ju-Heon nodded his head in satisfaction.
No matter how talented he was, the Monarch of Pushoverness could do nothing in front of the Monarch of Plunder.
