Reading Webnovels Makes Me Stronger

Chapter 125

Park Si-joon and Lee Min-ah sat down at a table inside the hall.

"Do you have anything to say to me?"

However, Lee Min-ah's eyes looking at Park Si-joon were cold.

cold. No, beyond that... She looks like she'll kill by stabbing her in the eyes.

"That……."

Park Si-jun traced his memory. Why is Lee Min-ah so angry?

There was one thing that came to her mind.

'… She didn't call.'

A pioneering quest from the swordsman.

She was trying to talk to Immigration on her phone, but she forgot.

I've been busy lately, so I haven't been in the mood.

"I've been a little sick lately, and I've been fainting for about a week."

She couldn't say that she forgot, though. She has no choice but to turn around and speak.

"I did this and that, and then I forgot a little bit. Sorry."

“…Ummm.”

Lee Min-ah looked very dissatisfied.

She wants to argue more, but she's not that friendly, so I feel hesitant.

“…so are you going to do it?”

"What, pioneering work? It doesn't matter, it's just that it's taking too long."

"The swordsman said it would be over in a few days. He said it wouldn't be that long."

"Yeah? How do you know that?"

Lee Min-ah tilted her head as if she did not know herself.

Park Si-joon thought for a moment.

pioneering work. The thrill of the reward obtained after raiding the four dragons is still there.

“…I’ll make a schedule as soon as I get back to Korea. It’ll be worth it when it’s over.”

"good idea."

Lee Min-ah was satisfied with the answer.

Then her waiter served her dessert and wine.

"Oh, can I have dinner?"

"Yes, I'll prepare it right away."

Lee Min-ah said she didn't have enough, so she even ordered a meal.

The waiter quickly prepared the course, and she started eating.

Park Si-jun ate her pancakes little by little while watching her.

"…heh heh. Stop it."

"Are you sure you haven't eaten?"

"It's been a while since I arrived. I ate the in-flight meal, but..."

Lee Min-ah blurs her words. Maybe she didn't like her meal.

"What are you doing here?"

"That's what I want to ask."

Lee Min-ah blinked her eyes a few times.

“I didn’t come here because I wanted to, but instead of my brother, I had no choice but to…”

“What would you like to do, Mr. Lee Hyuk-ho?”

"I'm almost living in the Abyss. There is a place that is being pioneered."

The Nemesis Guild, with Lee Hyuk-ho as the guild leader, is one of the guilds that work hard on pioneering. she deserved it

"I heard that a rare item is coming out today. There is also a rumor that it is S+ grade."

“S+ level……. level limit?”

"I don't know. I've heard it's closer to 200, but I'm not sure."

The item's value becomes more expensive the higher the rank and level limit.

Even if the grade is high, there is no great advantage if the level limit is too low.

Even if the grade is low, it is better to use a high level limit because the basic performance is excellent.

“If the rumors are true, they will be sold at a really ridiculous price.”

"I would."

“Is that the goal of Nemesis?”

Lee Min-ah did not answer.

He seemed to know just by looking at it.

Park Si-jun looked at Ha Seo-rin.

'That guy must know.'

Ha Seo-rin was chatting with other buyers while laughing.

Did she think there was no need to say anything? She was, in fact, so she was.

'I only need to sell my items.'

That's the goal.

Sell it, take the money, and leave.

'But I feel young... … .'

I kept getting the feeling that something was about to happen.

"Hey, there. I'm sorry, can I order more?"

"…Huh?"

Park Si-jun looked at the table.

There is not a single course that was full until a while ago. Even their own desserts.

"What? Did you eat?"

“…it seems like you don’t eat it.”

Lee Min-ah wiped her lips shyly with a napkin. If anyone else saw it, her heart would tremble.

'It's ridiculous.'

She was terrified for her Park Si-joon, who had no interest in her.

"…well, would you like to order dessert too?"

"Okay, I'm not very hungry."

"No, I want to eat."

“……”

Come to think of it, had she ever eaten with Lee Min-ah at the training camp?

There seems to be no

"You are very greedy."

"Oh, no."

Lee Min-ah denied it, but she said that she had no one to believe in.

"Hey. This auction, the players are guarded. Is there anyone famous?"

"A lot. Over there first."

Lee Min-ah pointed to the man and woman in the corner of the auction house.

"Soohyun Yoo and Aston. Both are platinum level players."

"Wave while looking at you. Uh, are you coming this way?"

"Because you know me."

Yoo Soo-hyun, who approached me, looked at Lee Min-ah and smiled.

“It’s been a while, Minah.”

"Unnie. I'm glad that you seem to be doing well. Aston as well."

"Well."

The three greeted each other warmly.

"Um, there are a lot of people."

Just then, a crowd of people passing by obscured the three of them.

Yoo Soo-hyun glanced at Park Si-joon.

"Is this guy I know? I think so."

“Yes, my name is Park Si-jun.”

"Did you come with me? Wow, it's a spring day for Minah too..."

"sister……."

Lee Min-ah's cold eyes pierced Yoo Soo-hyun. she grinned

"I'm joking. Nice to meet you, Si-Jun Park. It's an honor to see a famous player these days with my own eyes, this."

"I'm really happy to meet you. Soo-hyun Yoo, Aston-san."

"Fufu, you're a senior."

Park Si-joon shook hands with the two.

'It's not normal.'

I felt it even after shaking hands.

He would have been paid a lot of money to have a player bodyguard like this.

"Do you think my juniors are worried about the auction being attacked?"

"Did you hear me? Actually, I met a villain around here a while ago."

“…a villain?”

"Yes. He was a poison man."

Yoo Soo-hyun's eyes changed.

"Hmm. Sometimes there are guys who rush to me like fire moths. First, okay. I'll let people know."

"You don't have to worry too much. We're strictly guarding you."

"Okay, we'll be heading to the storage room in a little while. Don't worry, we'll make sure to protect your belongings."

Yoo Soo-hyun laughed and added what Aston said in a thick voice.

'This is the flag.'

The more I heard, the more anxious I became.

* * *

The Royal Grayson Hall where the auction is held.

There was a woman spying on them from afar.

“……”

She was a woman dressed as a waiter.

She grabbed her earring with her fingers and poured her magic into it.

"This is a delusion. I have grasped the location of the target. I will move as planned."

Her nickname is delusion. He was a villain belonging to Jormungand.

-… escort?

Another man's voice could be heard through her earring.

"Most platinum, nothing more. And… yes, there's a guy that snakes have an eye for."

- I heard the story. It's a gold level, so you don't need to worry about it. He's a promising player, but he still has a long way to go.

"I know."

The delusion cut off her magic.

"Is the call over?"

"…okay."

A slender man approached her. He is a villain who recently abandoned his group to join.

"Ren, I heard you're confident in poison."

"The rift has opened and it's been doing just that. Don't worry."

"okay……."

Delusion stood up.

“If you do your job successfully, you will get the position you want.”

"What I want is strength, not position. You guys have..."

“When there is a seat, strength will follow. Naturally.”

Delusion smiled and touched her own face. Then her face changed to that of another woman.

"It's going according to plan."

"Oh, should I tell you? It's embarrassing. Everything..."

delusion answered.

"For revenge."

* * *

"Oh, bro. This is delicious. Let's try it. Shall we give it to you?"

"Um, this is pretty..."

Park Si-jun sighed heavily as he looked at the scene in front of him.

'Is this a human or a pig?'

Lee Min-ah has been eating nonstop since a while ago.

Kim Baek-kyung, who has joined in the moment and is slicing steak like crazy.

I was shocked to see it.

“…are these people hungry?”

“Baekkyung ate a lot before he came. He must have eaten…”

"What are you usually hungry for?"

"What's starving? Hey, how good is the welfare of our guild."

"Although there are only two guild members."

Ha Seo-rin, who was next to her, snorted.

"When does the auction start?"

"In a little while. It's time to start slowly. Oh! What about items?"

"I've already submitted mine."

Park Si-joon has lost his appetite.

He didn't really want to pay, he said, so he had to show people the stuff when it was auctioned off.

"Oh, did you come here to sell things, Mr. Park Si-jun?"

"Uh. I got something."

"I think it's an expensive item to see you've come all the way to this place. Is that right?"

"Well……."

Park Si-jun smiled bitterly.

"You'll find out if you watch it."

A moment later, the lights flashed on the stage beyond the hall.

"Nice to meet you, everyone."

And a man came up from the bottom of the stage with leisurely steps.

"He's called Isaac, who runs the Royal Grayson Hall. He's also the host who will lead the auction."

Isaac was a middle-aged man with gorgeous blonde hair and a luxurious suit.

He smiled as he looked at the customers.

"Today's auction is simple. My staff will bring the items onto the stage, and you can see them for yourself."

Isaac pulled out a tablet PC from his arms and showed it off.

"The auction will be conducted using your tablet. Assessed value, and an up button. At the touch of a button, the price goes up."

Park Si-jun looked at the tablet.

There was one tablet on the table, so I asked for something and it was for auction.

The information, price, and button of the example item were coming out on the tablet.

“Prices are relayed in real time through the monitors on the stage. Then…”

Isaac smiled and spread his arms out.

"Let's start the auction."

As soon as he declared, the staff came out one by one.

Park Si-jun scrolled the tablet and looked at the information of the items.

"Hey, the minimum is an A+ grade."

"You said luxury auction house."

Ha Seo-rin carefully examined the information on the item on the tablet.

It was the same with Kim Baek-kyung.

"Tongue, bro. Take a look at this material. Uh... Can I buy it? Even if I scream..."

"Can you afford it..."(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

It was billions of materials.

Kim Baek-kyung also has quite a bit of money, but she can't afford to buy it casually.

"Brother. It's a sword that I think about after throwing out anything. If I buy this and make it into an item, it's a sword that will sell at a high price!"

"You man, that's a waste of money. You're still behind schedule."

"That's right. It's removed because it's gone."

"Ugh...!"

Everyone's eyes turned to Ha Seo-rin.

She was frantically pressing the up button on her tablet.

- Come on, 200 million. two and a half billion. Yes! 3 billion exceeded! more here... … .

Every time she pressed her price kept going up.

"...Brother, won't you stop?"

"Why do I stop him? Why are you worried about the rich? I'll take care of it."

Kim Baek-kyung shook her hand. She wanted to buy something, but she seemed angry because she couldn't afford it.

-52 million! Do you have more? There is none. Yes! has been awarded.

"Fufu, this is it."

It was Hasherin who won the bid. She smiled a happy smile.

'I'm bored, I'm bored.'

The auction continued.

Many items were uploaded and sold again. Basic billions. Expensive ones went up to double digits in billions.

'The apartment... … '

In terms of price alone, one or two buildings were being traded.

-Now, it is one of the items you should pay attention to today.

And finally, it was the turn of the item that Park Si-jun registered.

-S grade item! It is the wand of the great sage. The level limit is a bit low, but... … .

Isaac chuckled.

- It is said that using this will make it easier to increase the proficiency of the magic attribute It's an item that wizards will be very pleased with, isn't it?

The hall became noisy.

The eyes of those who checked the item information on the tablet changed.

rank? high. Options are good too. This can be used up to level 140.

Besides, it also increases the speed at which the skill proficiency increases.

-Your eyes seem to have changed. Yes, good! So let's get started!

Park Si-jun looked at the tablet.

"Huh. Tongue, bro!"

"…Oh."

Auction starting price, 1 billion.

This alone was surprising, but the surprise didn't end there.

- Yes, 3 billion. up to 3 billion... Ah! It went up to 5 billion the moment you said it!

Prices are going up like crazy.

"How long is this going to go up...?"

“…will it go up even more? Didn’t you know? If you go up to that level of performance and skill proficiency well, of course it will sell at a higher price.”

"No, I knew that."

I didn't know it would be this expensive.

Lee Min-ah, who was on the other side, was equally surprised.

“Bar, Si-Jun Park. It’s over 5 billion. How high will it go…?”

"I do not know."

The heat of the auction grew even hotter.

Although it broke the 5 billion mark, the speed of people tapping the tablet was still fast.

-… Yes! 8 billion! 8 billion! No more? Do you have more?

And, the auction is over.

-Yes! 8 billion! has been awarded.

at the price of 8 billion.

"…Ugh."
