I Am The Sorcerer King chapter 31
Chapter 31
The number of casualties increased. The victims did not want to stay here, like their loved ones. What about other neighborhoods besides Myeongdong? Local residents, members of the local assembly of other areas – all were in a panic.
HD Group had another problem as well. What if, as a result of the pressure on Song Hoon from politicians and the administration, he says that he is going to seek refuge in another country?
Then it will cause even more excitement and lead to not very pleasant consequences.
“In that case, we have to adapt to it and try to get as much profit from it as possible. Keep doing what you do. We will deal with the politicians and the government ourselves, “the director instructed Lee Ki-suk.
– Well thank you!
– Well done, – said the director and heard a knock on the door. “Let’s have dinner together sometime,” he said at last and hung up.
The call is over. Lee Gi Suk took a deep breath.
“The promotion is, of course, good … but so exhausting,” he concluded.
The sedan he was in was driving along the road.
***
A day has passed since Lee Gi Suk’s visit. Song Hoon lay on his bed and put his thoughts in order. Crossing his arms, he was lost in thought, when suddenly his eyes widened.
– Well, of course! You need influence. In this case, it is necessary that other people can use the knowledge that I possess. Hmm….
After some thought, he spoke again:
– Ok, the decision has been made.
He picked up his phone, opened a chat and started typing a message:
[How is your time today?]
This was the general chat of the Alpha team from HD Group.
[We haven’t seen each other since the last hunt. If everyone has time, can we meet? I have something to tell you about]
[Good! : 3]
Min Ye Yeon immediately responded and even sent a cute emoji. The rest also began to agree.
He made an appointment, immediately jumped up and quickly began to dress.
“Mom, I’ll be out for a while,” the guy said, running past the living room.
– Yes? I, too, will have to go out soon, – said the woman.
– Where are you going?
– I’m going to meet Min Suk. I can’t constantly invite her to my home – my mother couldn’t live a day without her friends.
– Did you call the driver?
– I can just take the bus.
– Mom, it’s all written in the contract. Call the driver and drive the car. Otherwise, he will receive a salary for nothing.
– Yes?
Sung Hoon, putting on his shoes near the entrance, talked to his mother, who was still sitting on the couch watching the TV.
– Yes, I’m telling you. Make sure to call the driver and go by car, okay? No, I guess I’ll call him myself …
– That is unnecessary.
– I’ll call! – said Song Hoon and left, closing the door behind him.
He immediately began to dial someone’s number.
– Section head Kim?
At first he was a deputy, but now he has been promoted. He was also in charge of Song Hoon.
– Yes, Song Hoon, do you need something?
– Send a car here, please. My mom needs to go somewhere.
– Yes, it will be done now. Will you go with her, Song Hoon?
– No, I have a scooter.
– Maybe it’s better to buy you a car?
– Not worth it. Send the car to my house.
Song Hoon hung up and got on his old scooter, starting the engine.
– Well, let’s go.
It was originally a scooter with a capacity of 20 horsepower, but suddenly it accelerated strongly, emitting a loud growl. It was a speed the scooter couldn’t reach. Which was natural, because his engine was changed by magic.
At this high speed, he drove towards Seoul.
Some time later, Sung Hoon arrived at the meeting point, which was appointed in one of the cafes, located in a three-story building. There are many such establishments near the center of Seoul.
The guy went inside and touched the bracelet on his wrist. It was a black dragon bracelet that was obtained from clearing a dungeon.
He also had his rod over his shoulder. Since it was too long, he had to carry it on his back like a sword.
Its unusual appearance immediately attracted the attention of visitors. But taking only these two things with him, he significantly increased his magical abilities.
The guy went up to the second floor of the cafe and, looking around a little, saw his goal.
Team Alpha sat in one side of the room, tables moved.
– Song Hoon! Here!
– Oppa, hello!
Kim Do Jin and Min Ye Yeon raised their hands. The others also greeted Song Hoon. Everyone was dressed in casual clothes, and Min Ye Yeon looked especially cute. Unsurprisingly, she looked cute even in her combat gear.
– I was the first to contact you, and came later than everyone else. Sorry. “Song Hoon first apologized for being late.
“We ourselves came only ten minutes ago. Not too late. We haven’t even made an order yet.
“That’s good, but I’m still uncomfortable in front of you. I was the first to offer to meet …
“It’s okay, Song Hoon. Let’s order something first.
Everyone was smiling and he relaxed too.
After a while, they ordered drinks and started a conversation.
– To begin with, I have a proposal for you. This is why I wanted us to get together, “said Song Hoon.
– What? An offer? “Min Ye Young wondered.
“Yes,” the wizard confirmed.
Everyone was very interested in Song Hoon’s words.
“An offer… I didn’t even hope it would be just a friendly meeting,” Kim Do Jin said with a smile.
Everyone nodded. By their appearance, one could tell that everyone thought so. Song Hoon laughed and continued his speech.
“A few days ago, when we entered the yellow monkey dungeon, you all got good items from the government, right? For example, I received then this black dragon bracelet. It’s very worthwhile, ” said Song Hoon, showing his new outfit.
Everyone listened intently.
“Actually, I can make items like this bracelet,” the guy said.
– Uh-uh?
– Wow …
“Unbelievable.”
Everyone had shocked faces, and Min Ye Young even opened her mouth. It was impossible not to be surprised here.
“All the items we got were from boxes … Are you saying you can create this?” Park Jin Suk asked.
Sung Hoon smiled at his question and nodded.
– Yes exactly.
He removed his wand from his back and showed it to the team.
– Oh, this is your rod?
– I made it myself. If you compare it with the bracelet of a black dragon, it is in no way inferior to it, – the wizard explained.
Everyone had shock on their faces.
“Did you … did it?”
– Wow!
– Wow … Oppa, how many skills do you have? Debuff, KK … Um …
Min Ye Yeon tried to list his abilities, but got confused. The girl’s expression became completely confused.
– Let’s just say I have many skills and among them there is the ability to create objects. And I can also teach other people, “Song Hoon looked around everyone.
– What?
– I can transform the unawakened one into the awakened one. And I can also help the already Awakened One to acquire skills that he does not possess. “The guy watched their reaction.
– What?
– Wow! – there were delighted exclamations.
Everyone was amazed. However, this is not surprising. Transforming an ordinary person into an Awakened one is a very outstanding skill.
Song Hoon was well aware of his worth. And there was a reason why he hid this skill from other people for so long – it was for his own safety. But now he can provide it himself.
– It’s true? But is it possible to give us such valuable information? Xing Sang Jin frowned.
Min Ye Young still couldn’t get over the shock. She sat absolutely still, as if she had briefly lost consciousness.
Song Hoon looked at them with a smile.
– In fact, I have many different and amazing abilities. The reason I hid it is simple. I had to become stronger to be able to protect myself, – he explained to his comrades.
That was the answer to Xing Sang Jin’s question.
– So …
– Yes. Now everything is all right. Now I can stand up for myself completely.
With his current strength, Song Hoon can defend himself at any time. In addition, he can create items that are called “artifacts.”
There was admiration on the faces of his colleagues.
– So I want to make you an offer. I think you can be trusted.
“I also tested their characters with magic and the results were excellent,” the magician thought to himself.
– What’s the offer?
Sung Hoon smiled slightly at Min Ye Young’s question.
– Everything as I explained earlier. I will help you master new abilities as well as create powerful items. However, you will have to pay for this.
Everyone looked at Song Hoon with intense eyes.
– And the payment will be …
***
– I have a skill that creates a contract between two people. With it, I can also impose a ban. And if you break this promise, then you can die. With this ability, I will make a contract with each of you.
Min Ye Young’s mind could not escape Song Hoon’s words. While she was thinking about it, she did not even notice how she came home.
She regained consciousness when she was already in front of her door. The girl sighed and looked ahead.
She entered the password on the lock from the apartment and went into the hallway. There was no sense of the presence of an outsider inside. The girl exhaled with relief and went further into the apartment.
Min Ye Young looked very tortured. The cheerful expression she showed when they saw Song Hoon disappeared without a trace.
This has not always been the case.
It’s just that what happened to most people also happened to her.
