Chapter 113
When Yu-hyun returned to the office, he was greeted by Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia, who had come back from their trip.
He looked at the two of them, who were sitting in their respective offices and taking a break, and asked.
“How was it? Did you two go together?”
Today, Kwon Jia and Kang Hye-rim had gone to a world of thought by themselves.
Since there was no opening of the library without Yu-hyun, they couldn’t get the support of the spirits, but even considering that, Yu-hyun had paired them up not to earn points, but to foster their cooperation.
“It was fine.”
“We finished it smoothly.”
Yu-hyun didn’t think they would fail either.
From the beginning, he didn’t send them with the purpose of clearing the world of thought.
“So, did you get a sense of teamwork?”
“Yes.”
“Ah, yes. Well. I guess so?”
Unlike Kwon Jia, who answered confidently, Kang Hye-rim hesitated strangely.
The world of thought they had visited today was Urkla’s orc tribe.
Orcs, humanoid monsters, were fantasy creatures with strong bodies that were hard to deal with for low-level collectors unless they had enough skills.
However, orcs, who were born as a combat race, were also the ones who gave collectors the most experience in real combat.
Kwon Jia and Kang Hye-rim had already completed that stage, but fighting alone and fighting together were different things.
Yu-hyun had sent them to adjust their harmony with each other, but somehow their reactions were different when they came back.
“Was there a problem?”
When Yu-hyun asked Kang Hye-rim, she shrugged her shoulders and said it was nothing.
He turned his gaze to Kwon Jia, and she seemed genuinely clueless.
“Hmm. They don’t seem to have fought.”
But that reaction meant that Kang Hye-rim still felt awkward about Kwon Jia.
It was not good to feel awkward about a colleague who had to fight together.
The only good thing was that Kwon Jia liked Kang Hye-rim?
The title of Sword Master was so famous in his previous life that it had a lot of influence.
“But judging by their reactions, they seem to have fought well.”
Apart from Kang Hye-rim’s reluctance to accept Kwon Jia, the two had fought well together in the orc tribe.
Kang Hye-rim’s mind and body were not fully aligned with Kwon Jia, but her body and sword hand moved naturally according to Kwon Jia.
However, Yu-hyun couldn’t fully know that fact.
‘I’ll have to ask Celine about this.’
Celine’s existence was a big reason why Yu-hyun had sent Kwon Jia and Kang Hye-rim separately.
Celine, who assisted Yu-hyun’s work, was more competent than he had thought.
She quickly handed him well-organized data when he asked her to find something, and she was also well-informed about the Mixed World and the Celestial Corporation.
That’s why he gave her some of his library authority, and he used that to ask her to watch how Kwon Jia and Kang Hye-rim were doing.
“Okay. You two worked hard today, but I have something to tell you first.”
Yu-hyun lightly passed over this part and explained to them what he had experienced today.
There was a world of thought hidden by the Twilight Curtain, and inside it there was a lot of resources embedded.
The Twilight Curtain was using it to plot something.
The two reacted differently when they heard his story.
“Those bastards...”
Kwon Jia, who knew about the Twilight Curtain, didn’t expect them to do such a thing and looked serious.
“Is that true?”
Kang Hye-rim, who still had some common sense left, wondered about the truth of Yu-hyun’s words.
And so did Baek Seoryeon, who was quietly listening to their conversation.
She usually believed whatever Yu-hyun said, but for the first time she doubted his words because the situation was completely out of the norm.
It was like a secret of an organization that only appeared in movies or mass media unfolded in reality.
It was a natural reaction.
“Do you think I would lie to you for no reason?”
“Well...”
“The important thing is this. How are we going to steal it?”
Baek Seoryeon couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity at Yu-hyun’s words.
“It’s dangerous.”
“Seoryeon.”
“What Yu-hyun is trying to do is make an entire clan into an enemy. And especially the Twilight Curtain clan. It’s even more dangerous.”
Baek Seoryeon knew how dangerous the Twilight Curtain was.
If they pick a fight, we’ll accept it. And we’ll crush them thoroughly.
That was Yu-hyun’s argument.
“I agree.”
Kwon Jia nodded her head and agreed with Yu-hyun’s intention.
She knew how vicious the Twilight Curtain clan was.
In fact, if she had to name the place where she had the biggest conflict in her previous life, it was the place where she had an overwhelming share.
Especially, Kwon Jia knew very well what the Twilight Curtain was doing in the dark side of society and considered them as a social tumor that had to be eliminated.
In fact, her judgment was not wrong.
“I do too.”
Kang Hye-rim also calmed down her anger and said so.
She didn’t want to leave the Twilight Curtain clan alone who had tormented Baek Seoryeon.
More than anything, backing down from a predetermined fight was not in line with her personality.
One collector and one teller agreed to fight.
As the representative of Baekhwa Management, Baek Seoryeon couldn’t help but panic.
“I...”
“Seoryeon.”
Baek Seoryeon’s eyes met Yu-hyun’s.
His calm gaze seemed to look into her heart, and she felt her strength drain.
“It’s true that they are dangerous and scary. But you can’t live in fear forever, just remembering what happened then.”
“I know that...”
“Knowing it in your head and accepting it in your heart are completely different. In my opinion, Seoryeon is not ready yet.”
Baek Seoryeon knew.
She knew that she shouldn’t be like this, but her instinct kept tormenting her.
She couldn’t even harbor a feeling of revenge against those hateful bastards who killed her brother and destroyed her family.
And the fear that came again was that her company, which she had raised with great care, would collapse again.
That was what blocked Baek Seoryeon’s choice.
Yu-hyun saw through what she was worried about.
“Seoryeon. Just remember this one thing for sure. We are not so weak that we will lose to those bastards, who are with you.”
There is a Sword Master here.
There is a regressor who does the future work.
And there is also a teller who was once human.
It was hard to find one of them anywhere, but there were three of them in one place.
“...We can’t win if we confront them head-on.”
“We know that.”
Kang Hye-rim and Kwon Jia were getting stronger at an unprecedented speed, but they still lacked a lot to face a whole clan.
At least, if one or two more people were added to this side, and the rest had some time to get stronger, then it would be enough.
“So, we need to come up with a plan right now.”
“Do you have any ideas?”
“I just thought of one.”
Yu-hyun smiled. It was not a gentle smile that tried to reassure the other party.
It was Yu-hyun’s unique cruel smile that he only made when he faced the enemies who challenged him, and when he looked forward to how he would cook them.
Baek Seoryeon felt a chill when she first saw that smile.
She felt that there was a vicious side of him that she didn’t know, hidden behind that gentlemanly and gentle man.
That’s why she felt that way.
“...”
But why?
At this moment, Yu-hyun’s smile felt more reassuring than anything else in the world.
Baek Seoryeon loosened her fist that she had clenched tightly.
Yes.
She couldn’t live in fear forever.
With that courage, the anger that she had suppressed against the Twilight Curtain rose up.
“Yu-hyun.”
“Yes. Seoryeon.”
“If you do it, please do it thoroughly.”
“Is there any doubt?”
The representative’s approval was given.
Yu-hyun had no more reason to hesitate.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
