Chapter 20
‘Administrator-nim, Administrator-nim. Is that man the person in question?’
[Administrator: o(╥_╥)o]
‘I mean, you should have told me right away the first time our eyes met...!’
Turning her head around, Seora ran to a corner seat where Gong Haeyeon was. She didn’t care that Song Hanna was looking at her suspiciously from behind.
I didn’t think I’d run into him here of all places.
The only comforting thing is that I have all the jacket and weapons I was wearing in my inventory, and I was wearing a gas mask at that time. There is absolutely no way he could relate me to the person at the gate.
... I hope so.
“What’s wrong? What did you hear from the president? Who the hell is that guy?”
Unlike Seora, who wanted to hold her breath as much as possible, Haeyeon was full of curiosity. She snooped at the man who came with the S-classes.
“Look at his face. His beautiful eyes. Who is it? It seems like he’s being escorted by the S-classes.”
At Haeyeon’s muttering, Seora suddenly stopped moving.
I know, right? Who the hell is that guy with all those precious S-classes?
Even the administrator cares. What is he—
‘Ah.’
Eventually, as soon as Seora raised her head in curiosity and looked towards him, her eyes met the man’s. At such a close distance, to the point where they could recognize each other.
Their faces hardened at the same time.
‘... What’s this? What’s with this terrifying energy?’
The man was strong.
When she first saw him in front of the gate, he had bloody energy all over his body that made her wonder why she hadn’t noticed right away. The magic power flowing out implicitly was overwhelming enough to make Seora, who had SS-class mana sensitivity, sick after a moment.
It wasn’t even like this when she saw Song Hanna, who was protected by the highest Entity.
‘Administrator-nim. Who is that man, really?’
The moment Seora questioned the man, an information window came to mind.
[Activates ‘Title—System Administrator’s Contractor’. You can check the information of the person you want.]
[The Awakened Information]
Name: Kang Sejun (L-class)
Title: Wheel of Eternal Bridle (EX), Omniscient Mage (L-class), Hell’s Flame (S-class), Indomitable Will (A-class), The Loser of Humiliation (A-class)
Characteristic: War Mage—Fire System
Entities in Contract: Hourglass of Destiny
Special Note: Returnee (5th round)
“...”
Seora doubted her eyes. If not, how could she believe these words before her?
‘What did I just see? A returnee? A returnee?’
It was understandable that he was an L-class. He was so strong that even her, who had become an S-class, skin stung.
However, a returnee is different. And the 5th round? You mean he had gone back in time five times?
No, no matter how much the world has become a fantasy genre. Is it possible to turn back time...?
‘Administrator-nim, Administrator-nim. I think there is a system error. Don’t you see anything weird? Aren’t you going to check the system?’
Seora held her last hope and questioned the administrator.
[Administrator: (;¬_¬)]
It avoided its gaze again. Seora had to admit that this was the truth.
‘This is seriously crazy. How could there be such a person...’
However, Seora’s shock did not last long.
[Administrator: ( ‘⌣’)/( ́._.`)]
The administrator was comforting her again. An ominous feeling enveloped her body again.
‘Wait a minute. Come to think of it, the blessing of Silver Screen is working properly, right?’
Seora had confirmed that it worked for S-class, but what about... L-class?
Seora knew the answer right away.
‘It’s not four S-classes, but five...’
It would be better not to know the truth.
“The community has completely turned upside down. It’s no joke.”
Gong Haeyeon, who was watching the community next to her, spoke. Seora was also curious, so she hurriedly logged in.
[Title: Crazy L-class appearance??? Is hell breaking loose in Joseon now?]
[Title: L-Class Awakened, where are you? Show yourself just one.]
[Title: Why don’t the associations answer the phone?;;; I’m so curious.]
“What a mess.”
Articles were continuously uploaded in real time. The moment Seora was scrolling down the community page while clicking her tongue, her finger stopped at the word that caught her eye.
[Title: (Beware of disgusting pictures) Is the Level 2 dungeon boss the L-class Awakened doing?]
... Right. Something like this happened before.
At the appearance of the returnee Awakened, Seora had forgotten that she had done a headshot to the head of the boss mob.
[Did you know that a boss mob came out of the Level 2 gate that appeared today? It was a normal dungeon, but suddenly a Break occurred.
I don’t know what happened to the raid party that went into the dungeon, but I thought I was doomed because the boss mob came out.
Suddenly, something like a red space appeared and the mob’s head was blown away;;; At once, I thought me eyes were wrong;;;;
But it seemed like a skill, I think it was my first time seeing it. There was no one in our class who used that skill, so I was curious who did it.
But seeing that there was an L-class, I wonder if that person did it. I saw the bosses who came out late after the boss mob died and took some guy with them. Could it be that guy?
For reference, I was a cameraman, so I went there to cover, and this is the boss mob with its head blown off that I took at the scene. I left it as a proof shot because I was worried you’d say I’m telling fake news.]
[Comment]
?? What? Is that the boss mob? Did its head really fly off? What skill can make such a thing possible;;?
└ Is it possible it’s the president of the association? She likes to burst things with psychokinesis.
└ It’s not the president’s doing, and that’s the problem. If the president of the association appears, the tiger fandom wouldn’t stand still x
└ You keep talking about them, what if you really meet the tiger fandom? What would you do? hahahahah
└ Isn’t L-class supposed to be out of the discussion? That one should follow the world rankings.
Uwagh, beware of the crazy clip;;;; I have a weak stomach, and I just vomited;;;;
└|Writer| : Oh sorry, I added it to the title
That’s crazy. Is that really what the L-class did? How many Level 2 boss mobs can an L-class catch with one shot?
└ Kyaa, the soup is filling up. Excuse meee! Another bowl of soup here, please!
└ A bowl of soup at this time;;
└ This is enough to ask for soup. A Level 2 boss mob is one of the best in the world
└ It is still not sure if the L-class did that, don’t be too excited
└ Who else if not L-class can do that?
└|Author| : I’m not sure. I haven’t seen it exactly, it’s just a guess. The association will announce it soon.
[T/N: You must be confused about the sudden “soup” word up there. Copying from Wikipedia: Often on YouTube or other internet sites, when you do something that stands out in another country in Korea, you ask for a bowl of soup. In a way, it can be said that it has become an indigenous meme unique to Korea. It is a word that raises the pride of the country.]
‘There was talk like this.’
Well, it’s a relief that the L-class Awakened appeared, otherwise the community would have been in a state of excitement throughout the entire time with the monster’s head blown away. I’m glad that the public misunderstood that he did it.
‘How long will they be mistaken?’
Kang Sejun is a war mage, and a fire-type mage on top of that.
It is so different from my ability and nature that had burst the Harpoon Snake’s head. It is obvious that any Awakened would quickly notice something strange.
‘As expected, let’s leave the company as soon as the situation is settled.’
Seora slowly began to fill out her resignation letter in order to present it as soon as she faced Song Hanna.
***
“Congratulations on your status as the first L-class Awakened in Korea.”
Song Hanna extended her hand to Kang Sejun. Sejun shook hands with her without saying a word.
“Thanks to this, Korea is finally able to enter the ranks of great powers. That’s how much love calls from overseas will be pouring in. So let me ask, Kang Sejun.
“Are you thinking of going abroad?
“If yes, tell me now. As the president of the association, I have to convince you to never go abroad.”
