[Oh! Kongie’s owner, Player Minhyuk is quite handsome!]

[My goodness. Was there really such a handsome man in our country? He looks better than most actors!]

[He’s tall enough to be called a model, and he even has good proportions. The games haven’t started yet but I don’t think that there’s any other player that can catch up to him with regards to visuals!]

[If there was a ‘Handsome and Cool Contest’ then the MVP will definitely be off the table already!]Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

[Yes. And there’s the baby piggy too.]

The buzz continued as the camera focused and shined brightly on Minhyuk and Kongie. Kongie was even proudly sticking his belly out as he stood up on Minhyuk’s shoulders.

[Kongie is feeling confident.]

“But will I even be able to participate?”

It was quite a concern since all the 20 slots for players were full.

“We have registered you for now. And you can easily participate since User Minhyuk has been on the ‘Hall of Kings’ twice. However, it seems like you will have to participate alone. But if that happens......”

Team Leader Park mumbled the rest of his words.

“They will realize that you’re the user who climbed the Hall of Kings.”

The people would notice that he was the sole person who climbed the ‘Hall of Kings’ and it was something that Minhyuk did not want.

“......I want to eat something delicious but it doesn’t seem to go well. Market Food. Just imagining it is making my mouth water. I can’t wait.”

Then, a voice suddenly spoke from the side.

“Market food? Such a crude market will definitely be stinky and disgusting, right? You’re telling me that there’s food in that place? Blegh! You’re even making it look like a X great thing! Just thinking about it makes me want to vomit!”

“......?!”

Minhyuk’s expression slowly turned grave. He was talking about the market that held a considerable amount of good memories for him. And it was even an obvious mockery. It was clear to him that he had made these remarks on purpose after he heard him talk. When he turned around he could see a man that was pretending to vomit loudly as if he wanted him to hear it.

Then, Team Leader Park said......

“He’s the strongest favorite and most likely champion in the Eat Quickly Contest. He’s also quite famous for his trashy personality.”

Even though Minhyuk was unaware, it was clear that Vhad was mocking the ‘Nominated’ player. However, Minhyuk asked him with a gentle smile.

“Have you tried shit?”

“Shit......”

Vhad laughed as if he found it interesting. But Minhyuk’s eyes remained cold and frosty as he looked at him.

“I’ll feed you some big shit today.”

“Look who’s talking.”

Then Vhad moved away with a sneer.

“Vhad is definitely trash but he’s still a solid player. But can I ask you a question? What’s the point in arguing like this......?”

Team Leader Park tilted his head in confusion as he mumbled the rest of his words.

The commentator was in confusion. Since this was the country’s greatest competition, all of the production classes that participated were at a high level. Most of them were over Lv400 too.

[He, he’s Lv355......]

[Ah. For real... and that’s the only explanation. ‘I’m worried’. I’m literally worried. A nominated player that’s at Lv355 and a nominated player who wasn’t sure that they’ll even play today had met and teamed up!]

The audience laughed when they heard the commentator’s antics.

“Hahahaha. This is definitely dumb and dumber, right?”

“What is this, isn’t this just like a march of fools?”

“The faulty and defective people are teaming up and doing a competition together? There’s nothing to see there at all.”

“What’s wrong with Joy Co. Ltd.? Why did they put these two people together? I can’t understand them.”

“Well, shouldn’t one team be in charge of the ‘humor’ in this competition?”

***

Fifteen minutes before the games started, Kang Taehoon finally came out with the permission letter that was stamped by the organizing committee.

The organizing committee was composed of the guild leaders of the best guilds in Athenae or the heads of the overseas branches. The heads of the overseas branches also took part in the organizing committee since they held an interest in Athenae: Korean War.

But even these people had to wonder about a player’s sudden registration. The player even requested that they allow him to set his information in private. But according to their personal investigations and interviews, they had said that his permission should be stamped with a seal of approval since there were sufficient reasons to approve his request. Just like that.

The organizers eventually stamped the seal of approval even though they were puzzled. It was because Kang Taehoon, the president of Joy Co. Ltd., showed enough courtesy to a ‘nominated player’ in Athenae, a game that they led and created. President Kang Taehoon even said that having an additional new team would be better for the competition.

“I can understand President Kang Taehoon’s position. It’s true that we need to check the power and strength of more users and select the best of the best for our national team so we can exert great power once we go to Athenae: World War.”

“That’s right. Isn’t that why we agreed on having this ‘11 team’ idea? Hahaha!”

“Yeah! Kghk!”

“Keuhuhuhu!”

They laughed happily. Cain and Alicia were both upset at their attitudes. They were also a part of the team that approved the creation of the new team. The reason that they were laughing happily was not because they were going to find new talents for Joy Co. Ltd. but because they knew that it was something ridiculous that they could laugh at.

“You think it’s funny?”

Alicia looked at them with a cold smile.

“Nope. I’m just imagining how interesting the performance of the users who were labeled as nominated players were going to be.”

Alicia grinned at them menacingly.

“I can imagine.”

The image of Minhyuk’s smile flashed in her head out of the blue. She was expecting great things from him, after all he always showed strength that exceeded Alicia’s expectations time and again.
