Chapter 377

ED:

“Cough, that’s also true. Certainly, if it wasn’t for Ram Hwayeon, your personal property would have been forfeited. That’s Middle Earth’s system.”

“Right. My head...... phew, she’s a guest coming from abroad, so I can’t meet her looking terrible. It’s because I learned something from our last meeting with Nara-ssi. You said it back then as well. There’s nothing wrong with dressing up and going out.”

Leeha was not without his own difficulties.

It was just like that when he met Shin Nara, but there’s no way that Leeha did not want to look good. Even more so, after experiencing it once, it became his standard.

Leeha thought about it for a few nights until he decided to go out properly anyway.

“That’s it, though. hmm...... I’m worried about auntie. What would her reaction be if a Hong Kong woman suddenly visited and introduced herself as her daughter-in-law-”

“w-what- what are you talking about now?”

“Haha, what do you mean ‘what’? I didn’t say anything.”

“D-d-don’t talk nonsense. Especially in front of mom. What do you mean Ram Hwayeon- don’t talk nonsense! She’s from a global conglomorate.”

“So what? The daughter of a global conglomorate is coming to Korea to see you.”

“That’s not it. It’s for something else.”

Kijung’s eyes turned crescent shaped as he made fun of Leeha.Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com

Kijung said it in a teasing way, but Leeha’s mind was restless.

‘I really don’t know. What the hell am I going to do?’

Leeha did not know how his heart felt, so he could not help but get frustrated.

***

The bus arrived at the airport at 9:00am. The two approached the arrival gate.

There were already a lot of people in front of the gate.

“Uwaa, there’s a lot of people. Why are there so many people coming to greet arrivals? It’s not even a tour-”

“No...... I don’t think so. This atmosphere...”

Kijung was surprised and looked at Leeha.

The laces of the people busily walking around emanated the smell of ’employee card’. There was a war of wits between the people who were wary of their surrounding and people who were trying to breakthrough.

The people fighting for a good spot also held huge cameras.

“A celebrity must be coming.”

“Oh! That makes sense. No, no, if it is a celebrity, shouldn’t there be a lot more fans? These people don’t look like fans.”

Leeha’s interest in them faded as the clock hand reached 10.

Kijung made fun of Leeha but he was just as excited as him.

“It’s 10 o’clock. The plane must have arrived by now.”

“How long does it usually take to get in and out? It usually takes 30 to 40 minutes for foreigners to pass through Incheon.”

“Shall we buy a drink or something? I’m suddenly thirsty.”

Leeha and Kijung overlooked one fact. No, maybe it was because it was a fact that they didn’t know from the start.

Ram Hwayeon and Ram Hwajung belong to the Ram Long family, one of the largest conglomerates in the world. What did it mean for such people to come to other countries in Asia?

There’s no way that they, who make the political and business world noisy with foreign investments,

will waste time with “entry procedures”.

Just seven minutes after arriving and boooom——-

The gates opened.

The attendants in black suits jumped out first.

Walking in the middle was a stately woman with red-brown hair and a woman with a blue-black hair.

Although it was not as pronounced as in Middle Earth, Leeha and Kijung were able to recognize them just with their unique hair color.

“Hyung!”

“Oh, Ram- uwaaak?!”

The moment Leeha and Kijung saw the two. A war began to break out around them.

Ignoring the fact that there was a person in a wheelchair, everyone around them pushed Leeha and Kijung and ran as if they were about to break the fence.

Only then did Leeha and Kijung learned the identity of the people around them.

“Their out! It’s Ram Hwayeon!”

“Ram Hwayeon-ssi! Ram Hwayeon-ssi! I’m from MBS! Is it true that the purpose of your visit to Korea this time is to build a new resort and select a new tourist destination!? There was also talk of investing in a consortium with the US hotel industry. Please tell me if that project is being carried out in detail!”

“Is it to show Ram Long’s will to already inspect the land that has not yet been announced for bidding? Or are you trying out new possibilities as the head of new business development?”

“Ram Hwajung here! Here- only take pictures of the blue-haired girl, we’re getting views with that! The title is ‘Ram Long’s youngest princess, finally enters the country’! Do you know Kimchi? Let’s go!”

“What is the purpose of Ram Hwayeon who came to Korea after saying that she would not be involved in any business at the group level other than a virtual reality game? Opinions are divided as to whether this is foreshadowing a major personnel reorganization! Say something!”

The only thing that came out of the reporters’ mouth camped out in front of the gate were of current affairs or business related news.

“I don’t know. Phew...... let’s go watch a fun movie, Bobae.”

“This girl, what’s the point of calling me out just because you’re bored? Even if I didn’t have that promise today, I had a lot of other appointments?”

While covering her mouth, Bobae picked up a beer can and bumped into Shin Nara.

Click- Clicked- It was then that Bobae’s hand, which was trying to get on the internet and download the VOD, stopped.

“Hey...... Nara?”

“Huh?”

“Do you know what Leeha and Kijung are doing today?”

“I don’t know. How would I know? Cough-”

“Ah, ahh. I see.”

Bobae quickly covered the laptop. However, she was slower than the fencing gold medalist’s dynamic vision.

“Hmm?

“Hmm?

That, what was that?”

“Huh? W-What is it?”

“The thing that just appeared on the screen. The news article.”

“Nothing?”

“Get out of the way.”

“Ah, it’s nothing- kkak!”

Shin Nara shoved Bobae forcefully. As soon as she sat in the chair and opened her laptop, a picture caught her eye.

It was a picture of Leeha, and Kijung, with Ram Hwajung, and Ram Hwayeon at Incheon International Airport in the background.

[What is the relationship between the Lim Yong Group(Hong Kong name Ram Long) and the Korean gatecrasher?!]

“This... this......”

“Hey, hey, Nara? Maybe something happened-”

Glug, glug, glug, glug, glug.

Shin Nara emptied the 500ml beer can in one shot. Looking at her trembling shoulder, Bobae shook his head.

‘I won’t be able to stop her if she’s like that...... Phew, I wish you would talk to me too!’

While Bobae was feeling sorry for her friend, Shin Nara was already wearing her clothes.

“Let’s go!!”

“Where?”

“Where else! Follow me, quickly!”

Shin Nara and Bobae, who were slightly drunk, scrambled toward Incheon Airport.

After the first meeting, Bobae, who had been exchanging “conversations” with Kijung in her spare time, hurriedly sent a message and went after Shin Nara.

The world of Middle Earth was still moving even with Leeha’s situation.

“You mean they all agreed?”

“Yes. Although the amount and size of the expeditionary force of each country are still for negotiation, they have all agreed to raise their flag under Your Holiness.”

“Then...... How long will it take to reach a concrete agreement, Fernand..?”

“As soon as possible...... we will try to finish the negotiation within a month.”

“Good. That’s great. When the preparation is complete, you will be the captain of the new continent expedition-”

“No. I am thankful, but I can’t. The new continent expedition includes not simply crossing the sea, but after crossing it, we will also need to establish a headquarters, and destroy the Fragments of the Demon King,including Bluebeard, which is too important for me to take on.”

Fernand was an adventurer, not a trailblazer.

He may be the greatest at breaking through darkness, but his abilities were limited to that.

It could be said that he was the least qualified person for leaving light behind the darkness and making the land he pioneered prosper.

The Pope nodded at Fernand’s resolute refusal.

“I see. Then, is there anyone you recommend?”

“It is still unknown how many talented people will apply. I don’t think it’s a good idea to decide when the new continent expedition members are not yet decided, Your Holiness.”

“I understand. Then, I will leave it to you to discuss the amount of aid for each country. In the name of Ahlo, who have brought you to me, try to gather people who will share the purpose of New Continent Expedition.”

When the Pope finished talking, white light radiated from Fernand’s body.

And at that moment, new post was updated on Middle Earth’s official website.

A short phrase that can be interpreted differently, but no one disagreed about one thing.

[Phase 3]

A new chapter in Middle Earth had begun again.
