Chapter 49: (2): Season 1: Preparation
Hyun-seok joked in a lowered voice so that no one could hear him.
Can someone as important as the Union Leader come in person? Seems like you have some free time these days.Not only me, but Union Leaders will also directly participate. Unless they send representatives, we can identify which country they belong to and assess the financial capabilities and required items of each Union. It can be a significant help in understanding these top-tier auctions.It seems like theres some power competition between the Unions?I cant say for sure. Although there is no direct conflict since the monsters dont overlap, it doesnt hurt to know about each other. We dont know how the situation will change in the future. Besides, the US Union didnt try to scout you with 300 billion won just for their benefit. They must have considered that it would also harm the Korean Union.Hmm
It seemed inevitable that when people gather and organizations form, there would be rivalries between the organizations. Each country had its own monsters and dungeons, so while there were no direct conflicts or disputes, it seemed like they were making efforts to monitor and restrain each other.
To monitor Well, your friend reveals information about new monsters and dungeons quite easily.Thats a deliberate choice for image-making. We want to create an image of being the first to clear dungeons and provide information, and the premium image of slaying monsters and sharing information. As you know, our slaying level is exceptionally high, but the numbers are low. So, were building an image to overcome that weakness.
Hyun-seok chuckled. He had already guessed Sung-hyungs thoughts to some extent, but hearing it directly from him made it more believable. Maybe it was because he had sensed some human charm in Sung-hyung from the beginning, but he felt satisfied with joining forces with someone like him.
The auction began. The items on auction were diverse. While all the monster stones were monster stones, the ones with abnormal shapeslike hearts or starswere highly sought after by collectors and fetched a much higher price than regular stones. The world was vast, and there were many wealthy individuals with different desires participating.
But here Its not just the Slayers, even the worlds wealthy are participating.
In any case, while support and healing Slayer skills were relatively easier to acquire, the same couldnt be said for martial arts skills. There were undoubtedly people aiming for advanced martial arts like Hyun-seok.
Darn it. I hope its not because theyre short on money or have something to deal with.
He participated with a relaxed mindset, but the world-class class was far more overwhelming than he had imagined. He had expected it, but experiencing it firsthand was on a different level from just thinking about it.
Then, something shocking happened. The first casualties were the armed guards. Although there had been a murder, people didnt seem too disturbed.
Since this place was where world-class Slayers, Union Leaders, and wealthy individuals gathered, the security was thorough with state-of-the-art facilities and systems. It seemed that some group had foolishly attempted something, and Hyun-seok observed the situation with a calm mind. A tremendous amount of money was being circulated there, so there could be greed. However, targeting such a place was something that only fools would do. Considering the enormous amount of money being traded and the extensive security measures in place.
Unless they were blind to the large sums of money involved, some people might have been well-prepared and confident enough to handle the situation all at once. It seemed like it might be the latter this time.
Even among the relaxed people, tension slowly started to rise. The situation was gradually escalating.
