Chapter 161: Guild (3)

Chapter 161: Guild (3)

“Even though it’s a new guild, the workload is quite intense, isn’t it?”

A woman with blue hair stretched and spoke.

She turned her gaze back to the desk and began organizing the documents. Her speed was abnormally fast.

Hundreds of pages were sorted in an instant. For her, living in the electronic world, such computational power was nothing. Her physical body might have an ordinary brain, but her real mind and body are in the electronic world, making this possible.

“There’s an absurd amount of work.”

Yet, she couldn’t help but smile. It was the reason her organization was doing well.

The reason for the workload was simple. It was because of a new organization under her command.

Dark Heaven.

No one else could match the level of this subordinate organization. It was top-notch with only 23 of the highest rank, and although most of the Heaven Society’s members were of the lowest rank, there were occasionally those of the middle rank. There was even one of the highest rank, capable of making life unsustainable in a typical city within an hour.

Of course, the Electronic Witch manipulated information to lower their rank by one, but still, they were dangerous.

There were three of the highest rank.

If one searched the entire world for villains, heroes, and Mines combined, the highest rank only numbered just over 1,000.

Their identities also needed to be recreated.

However, the identities of the highest rank couldn’t be created. Fortunately, the political realm welcomed these villains becoming heroes.

Because humanity’s main enemy were the Mines. Of course, only those whose crimes were forgivable could do so.

In return, they had to provide various compensations and help in national disasters.

“That’s manageable.”

She finished preparing the documents to be submitted to the government and the association. The Electronic Witch wore a satisfied smile.

“Finally done.”

After finishing her work, the Electronic Witch electronically sent the urgent documents to Lee Seo-ha.

-All urgent matters have been handled. Just need your signature~.

Simultaneously, she entered the electronic world, stepping into her 4D space where she could experience sound, smell, and touch.

She then navigated to an internet community.

The community was abuzz with discussions about the latest hot topic, the Veritas Religion.

It was inevitable. He was hailed as the god of alchemy by the Hundred Temple, bestowing the stat of alchemy on those who believed and followed him. They hailed him as a real god.

[Current situation of alchemists going crazy abroad]

-www it's dangerous! Alchemists are already going mad, now they'll go even crazier? wwwwwwww.

-That's not what's important. Look at the alchemists now. Whether in America or Europe, all alchemists are flocking to Korea. The government needs to regulate the movement of alchemists.

-Eh-? Why?

-Because there's talk that Veritas, the god of the Veritas Religion, is Korean, and all the alchemists are applying for immigration. Most of those who received the stat of alchemy are Koreans.

-I knew it. The potion prices were halved, then they started rising again.

-If this continues, other countries will have no choice but to import potions from Korea. This is a real problem.

ᄂSo that's why potion prices were halved and then halved again?

ᄂYep. But they'll rise again. Other countries have noticed and are coming to Korea to sweep up potions.

ᄂᄏᄏᄏᄏ Seriously no joke. I need to buy a few potions for emergencies too.

The Electronic Witch chuckled.

Becoming friends with Lee Seo-ha and gaining recognition in various places were reasons too.

“Ah, what to do.”

The Electronic Witch looked troubled.RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only

Different from before, she had become a real fan of Lee Seo-ha. By helping him from behind the scenes, she had become known as the invisible hand of the Veritas Religion, famously operating in the shadows.

The Electronic Witch then searched for the next video.

It featured the Dark Knight, also known as the Masked Man, known for his exploits.

Dark Knight. The masked man was known by various epithets.

The most commonly used title was the Masked Man, but he was also called the Black Reaper because he killed Mines or similarly vicious villains who were humanity’s main enemies.

[Let’s find out about the Black Reaper stirring up South Korea’s underworld.]

South Korea was not only a country of heroes but also had many villains and Mines.

He, known as the Vizier, was not known for his humility. Influenced by Kim Seo-hyun’s kindness while proclaiming himself her rival, he had become one of her main supporters from the shadows. Now was a time he could afford to be truly arrogant.

“Is joining not possible?”

“You’re welcome to join if you’d like.”

“Is that so? Then I’ll stop by the guild today. I know where it is, so don’t worry.”

“You’ve already looked into it?”

“The area was lively. You might not be aware, but there are more guilds keeping an eye on you than you might think. In fact, if anyone in Korea has even a slight interest in heroes, they couldn’t possibly not know about you.”

Park Woon-hyuk’s words left me feeling uneasy.

If he said that, it had to be true.

I proceeded to greet the other students properly and found a place to sit.

Kim Ara approached me from the side.

“That’s right. Father said he’d drop by sometime. He mentioned he found a new relic.”

“...I wish he would stop giving them now.”

Honestly, the gifts from the Overlord were overwhelming.

It’s said that possessing relics was a measure of a guild’s combat strength, but with just the relics from the Overlord, our guild had ascended to be among the top 20 in Korea.

“Really? Oh, but there’s something I’ve been curious about lately. Can you help?”

“Of course. It’s Ara’s request, how could I refuse?”

I stood up with a smile.

Kim Ara was one of the connections I had made. I wanted to awaken the dormant giant’s blood within her so she could become a powerful ally later. But now, there was also a desire not to see her in trouble.

‘She’s changed a lot.’

It wasn’t just Kim Ara. My relationships with Ershil, Hong Yu-hwa, Seo Ga-yeon, and Kim Seo-hyun had also changed.

It was the same with Seolhwa Ryeon. She might mistake me for an elder, but I valued how our relationship was evolving.

As we walked down the corridor, Kim Ara looked back.

“Actually, I heard something recently.”

“What?”

“That Seo-ha was rolling around in bed hugging Ershil.”

“...”

How did she know?

There wasn’t even a CCTV there.

“It was true...”

Kim Ara’s expression changed from neutral to icy.

“I confessed, but you rejected me and chose Ershil.”

“No, it’s not like that yet.”

“Is that so?”

The word ‘yet’ changed the color in Kim Ara’s face.

Bang!

Kim Ara pushed me to the end of the hallway and hit the wall. I felt a soft touch on my chest as Kim Ara licked her lips, looking at me.

“So, if I make you fall first, it’s over.”

Kim Ara dropped a bomb.

Thud.

Ershil witnessed that scene.

On the other side, Hong Yu-hwa was glaring at me with fiery eyes.

“Hmm.”

I watched the scene briefly, then remembered something a friend from my previous life had told me.

-“Hey, aren’t you buying a bulletproof vest? I’m really worried about you, you know. You might get stabbed by women someday and die.”

That comment came to mind for no particular reason.
