I Am The Sorcerer King chapter 12

Chapter 12

– What…

Song Hoon still lived in his tiny room measuring ten square meters. Despite its modest size, it had a window from which he looked out. The guy was very surprised to see the crowd at the entrance to the studio where he lived.

In a past life he was a great magician, but this never happened!

“What the hell?”

Song Hoon clicked his tongue and looked at the switched off phone. Recently, he called tirelessly, so I had to turn it off.

But that’s not all: he received a message on the network for the awakened ones.

“You have a new message!” The notification rang incessantly.

Everything that was happening seemed to be sheer madness.

“Of course, the ability of a healer is highly valued, but so that…” Song Hoon did not expect such a stir.

For lack of such experience in his past life, he could not get used to the increased attention to himself. Well, and, of course, because he was a bait for a long time, and this is not the most respected occupation.

Someone had a dual specialization and received such and such an amount, someone had a triple specialization and he did such and such – Sung Hoon had heard enough of such conversations.

But it’s one thing to just listen to such stories, and it’s another to become their hero.

“How did they make such a fuss? ..” Song Hoon chuckled. – Yes, how-how … Very simple.

In any case, he is more important now. And they are in second place.

Thinking about it, he finally opened a message that had bored him for a long time. With surprise, he noticed that it came from abroad.

It was an offer for a contract. The company guaranteed compensation for liquidated damages under its contract with HD Group and offered a contract worth ten billion won. Such numbers have completely exceeded Song Hoon’s expectations.

He just said that he is a support that can heal, but could he have guessed that he would be offered ten billion for this?

– Wow … my price turns out to be much higher than I thought.

However, in a company offering ten billion, it had to participate in the raid twenty times a year. That’s a lot, but it was promised a premium for that, which was a big plus for Song Hoon.

“If I had known about such a demand earlier, I would have immediately told HD Group about my abilities,” the guy regretted.

While he was considering the terms of the proposed contract, the street became even more noisy. When he looked out the window again, he saw that people from HD Group had also arrived.

***

– We did not know that you have a triple specialization. If you had informed us in advance, such problems would not have arisen. “Lee Gi Suk entered his little room.

People sent from the HD Group scattered the rest. This was part of their job, since Song Hoon had a contract with them.

“ I just didn’t have time, ” Song Hoon made excuses.

Inside himself, he repented. In a past life, Kraturas was not such a pathetic person. Now his personality has mixed with that of Song Hoon, so pity has appeared in his character.

“Still, it’s not that bad. It was much worse in the past life. “Sung Hoon looked at Lee Gi Suk as he thought.

– Ohh … Do you know that all this commotion is because of you? The man turned to him.

– Is it something so serious? The guy asked.

– Double specialization is already a rarity, and triple specialization is even more so. In our country, the last time such a person appeared was three years ago.

– Hmm …

– As you know, tanks have a dual specialization. They can both improve their physical abilities and provoke monsters, explained Lee Gi Suk.

Everything as he said: tanks captured the minds of monsters and made them focus only on them.

Dual specialization. In other words, high-class abilities.

“But dual specialization also has ranks. You are no match for the tanks, “the man continued.

The ability to buff is impressive, of course, but paralysis is something like a cheat code. You can even safely call it a skill that will change the paradigm of the raid.

– Healers usually have one specialization. But as you know, recovery skills are very rare.

The vast majority of damage dealers and supports have only one specialization. Supports can buff, damage can attack, and so on.

The healer can heal. It seems that there is only one ability, but it is worth its weight in gold. There are many people with healing abilities and they have gone to hospitals because they don’t like battlefields, which makes healers even more valuable and rare.

“That is why your cost, Song Hoon, is so high. Moreover, you seem to have a large supply of mana, right? Lee Gi Suk asked.

Song Hoon’s mana reserves were really impressive. In addition, he can use several abilities: healing, buff, CC. The guy is versatile, he has a lot of mana, so he can spend a long time in battle. Even a child understands how valuable a player he is.

“ So I have no choice but to increase my value, ” Sung Hoon concluded.

“That’s the way it is,” confirmed Lee Gi Suk.

– Hmm …

Although Sung Hoon was a decoy for a long time, he did not know such subtleties.

– So, how will HD Group operate? – he asked.

– Twenty billion. Instead – 24 raid participation per year. Profit split – 95:05. We agree to such terms. Plus, to raise the level, we will provide our people to help you, – the agency representative suggested the terms of a new contract.

They increased the amount twenty times. The terms of sale, which were previously 9: 1, have also been improved. Is this cost the same as those born with a golden spoon?

Song Hoon sighed and whistled.

– Perfectly. Then I stay in HD. But I’ll change the terms a little.

– You are talking about …

“Medicine from the body of a mandrake,” the guy announced his terms.

He believed that after three months he would be able to cure his mother, but now it is not necessary to wait all this time. Plus, of course, he wanted to cure his mother, but using the mandrake medicine he could have come up with a different result.

And cure the disease, and increase the physical abilities of the mother. Kill two birds with one stone

– Mandragora … good. I understood. Let’s do this, “Lee Gi Suk said.

– What? Do you have the authority to make such decisions? – it was unexpected.

– Almost any pharmaceutical company can make a medicine from mandrake. Only about ten of them are produced per year, but our company also produces them. Dead bodies alone are worth five billion won. Manufacturing process – two billion won. The profit is three billion won.

“Do you know so well about this?” Song Hoon was surprised.

Lee Gi Suk smiled slightly.

– I have connections. Well, let’s do that. We will provide it at cost. Mandrake medicine and the contract amount is ten billion. Agreed.

Song Hoon has signed a contract with Lee Gi Suk again.

Two-year contract. Conditions – 95:05. The amount of the contract is 10 billion. And the mandrake medicine. In return, he will participate twenty-four times in the raid.

For Sung Hoon, this was a huge benefit.

A family.

– A…

Through the long darkness, consciousness slowly returned to Shin Myung Sook. She had dreams. Like all dreams, hers were illegible. Everything is in a fog, and the silhouettes are indistinct, like trembling waves.

But there was also a good side: even though she spent a long time in this dream, it was not a nightmare, but a calm dream. Such, waking up from which you no longer remember anything.

She saw the light in her dream. This light gradually faded, and she, destroying the darkness, opened her eyes.

At first, everything was seen a little unclear, dizzy. After a moment, consciousness completely cleared up, and she began to feel how sensations throughout her body return to her.

But something seemed strange.

There was a lot of strength in her body and a fever appeared.

– Mum? – heard the woman.

In slight confusion, she turned her head to a familiar voice, seeing the face of a handsome young man. Suddenly she said:

– You look so much like your mother.

– Mum!

– Your mom is not deaf. I see I’m in the hospital. Have I passed out again?

She knew about her illness. She often fell asleep, sometimes she even fell asleep while eating.

– Mum!

But this time, her son’s reaction was slightly different. He started crying and hugged his mother. Looking at him, she, too, suddenly burst into tears, and then wiped the tears from his eyes and hugged him tighter.

– Oh. You should get married … Sorry mom. I wonder how many bills came out for the treatment … – she felt guilty before her son.

As far as she remembered, this was the fourth time she had passed out like that. Each time she had to be in the hospital, but they could not provide her with proper treatment, saying that it was an incurable disease. It took a lot of money.

But she didn’t know that three years had passed since the last time she passed out.

– Um, could you move a little? After hearing the words of the man in the dressing gown, the doctor, Song Hoon came to his senses a little.

But the tears continued to flow, even though he tried to wipe them away.

Mom felt very heavy in her soul when she saw her son in such a state.

– So, patient, look at me, I will check your pupils and measure your pressure, – the doctor turned to the woman.

The nurse brought the blood pressure monitor and began preparations. At this time, the doctor checked the woman’s eyes with a small flashlight.

– The pupils are fine. How’s the pressure? He asked the nurse.

“The pressure is fine too, Doctor,” she replied.

– Well. You are completely healthy, which is expected from such a medicine … You were in a coma for three years, – the doctor told his patient. – Wait a little longer and we will start the discharge procedure.

– What? .. What are you saying? – the woman was very surprised when he said about three years.

– You were in a state of lethargic sleep for three years, and only now woke up. You are in luck with your son. What other son will spend ten billion on medicine to heal his mother? – said the doctor.

Her eyes grew even larger.

***

– Did the doctor tell the truth? – she turned to her son.

– Yes, Mom.

– How did you … really … You didn’t go to work with bait or something like that? Say no, – Mom got worried.

Ten billion. Even if an ordinary person had saved such an amount all his life, he would not have been able to do it. It’s impossible to even win the lottery this amount.

That kind of money can only be earned by doing something abnormal. In her youth, she lost her husband and raised her son alone. She was not that naive.

Therefore, she began to worry.

– Do not worry. I became awakened, “said Song Hoon.

– Awakened? She repeated.

Awakened? Her son?

Intense surprise sealed on her face. She knew it was dangerous to be awakened, of course, but it was still better than becoming a decoy.

Usually, ordinary people without abilities died the fastest in battle with monsters. And if you are awakened, then you at least have the opportunity to escape in a dangerous situation.

“Plus, I’m a very rare awakened. And they pay me a lot, – added her son.

– It’s true? You’re not lying, are you? – the woman could not immediately believe in something like that.

– No. So I was able to cure you.

Her eyes were reddened and her gaze was slightly dimmed. Her son smiled as he watched her tears roll down.

– Well, why are you crying, mom?

– You, too, recently sobbed without stopping. Give me some napkins.

– Here you go, Mom.

The woman took a napkin and began to wipe away her tears. Her soul ached from the thought of how her son had worn himself out all these three years.

– Don’t worry, Mom. We’ll heal fine now. Good? Sung Hoon smiled again.
