Players Who Returned 10,000 Years Later

Chapter 32. Proposal by Chae Young Ju

— I don't know, we don't have the right relationship to communicate like this, — Kang Yu replied calmly to the girl who suddenly appeared.

In fact, they could hardly be called acquaintances.

Kang Yu silently looked into the short red-haired girl's eyes.

— Do you have anything to say?

—Chae Young-ju. — The girl saunters slowly towards Kang Yu. — My name is Chae Young-ju. —

—Chae Young-ju? – Kang Yu felt he had heard that name somewhere before.

After racking his brain to browse through everyone he knew, he finally remembered.

'I think that's what they were talking about in the waiting room in the Player Control Department...' Players who receive special S-level abilities from the first rank. 'I guess they said that he was the chairman of one of the five guilds.'

One out of five.

One of the five largest guilds in Korea today to date.

Hanuls. Red roses. Onnury. Mir. Sanalaea.

He was one of the five guild commanders.

— You from Red Rose?

- That's right. I am the leader of the Red Rose Guild.

Kang Yu did not say anything. He was the head of one of the five guilds.

Guilds that were at the top of the most powerful guilds in Korea.

The girl he accidentally met on PC Bang turned out to be a very famous person.

'Then it's no wonder why he's so strong.' He was the only person whose strength was strong enough to be questioned by Kang Yu, and was probably the only person capable of defeating him.

The special ability level of the girl he met at PC Bang was several times higher than Kang Yu. Behind her pretty face was a terrifying Player.

'I'd like to know if this is what you feel when you find out that a fat, unreasonable neighbor is actually the director of a large representative company. ' Of course, he wouldn't know for sure, but it seemed like a fair comparison to him.

He carefully observes Chae Young-ju.

She looked different today than the day they first met: she was wearing comfortable shorts and a tight sweatshirt.

She was still modestly dressed today, but looking at her appearance, she made a much greater impression.

"He's dressed up." You can't tell the difference from her clothes alone, but looking at the thin makeup that wasn't there last time, Kang Yu was sure.

He had no doubt that the girl was not here to fight him.

'If you're going to fight with someone, there's no need for makeup.'

When Kang Yu finished seeing Young-ju, he asked indifferently:

— What does the chairman of the Red Rose Guild want from me?

— Actually, I found some information about you. – He pulled out a piece of paper as he said that. — Oh Kang Yu. 29 years old. He spent his entire childhood in Jeongson orphanage, and since he was not adopted, he lives independently now. Isn't that right?

— I don't know why you did that, but it's true.

— He was registered as a Player on May 23. That was about two weeks ago.

Kang Yu, biting his lips, waited for him to continue.

— According to the test results of the Player Control Department, your first special ability is class F. Of course it was a mistake. If it really is a Class F ability, you won't make it to Level C Gate in two weeks.

— Hmm, — Kang Yu slightly nodded.

— Actually, at first, I thought Oh Kang Yu's identity and name was fake. — Young-ju continued impartially. — But your face and fingerprint matched the data when you were a child. —

— From where do you get my fingerprint?

— Aren't your fingerprints taken when you created the ID?

— I don't think big guilds have many connections.

Government-protected information flows too easily into the hands of others.

— Well, as you know, money finishes everything. – Young-ju shrugs her shoulders. — So, the first thing I do is make sure that you are the person you say you are. And when confirmed.. —.

After carefully looking into Kang Yu's eyes, he continued:

— I realize that you are a player with amazing abilities. Maybe you are even stronger than Baek Gang Hyun.

— Thank you for such high praise, — said Kang Yu with a smile. — So, what did you finally find? —

Kang Yu wanted to know how much he knew about her.

"He hasn't said anything else so far." And he also wanted to hear from her why she had come to see him in person.

No need to guess, of course. Kang Yu was well aware of its value.

He had extremely advantageous strength and skills in the situation where Earth was now.

And he had no desire to hide it or use it for anything but his own purposes.

'How lucky I am, I was just about to make a connection with a member of a large guild.' He would not join any guild, but it was necessary to make allies.

— As the head of the Red Rose Guild, I tell you that we want to sponsor you.

- What...? — While hugging himself, Kang Yu looked at the girl with a childish gaze. — So you aimed at my body? —

The girl took a deep breath and looked at Kang Yu like she was looking at trash.

'Hi! You shouldn't look at people like that!' He was only joking, but he received an insulting look in return.

Kang Yu shrugged and continued:

— Unexpected offers.

— To join your guild, of course.

— Um... — He breathes the air noisily. — We find it difficult to accept Players hiding behind Class F special abilities. If you are going to join the Guild, you will not hide your strength from the very beginning.

— Mm-hmm.. — It is clear from his face that he is thinking.

'But I accidentally hid my strength.' It was only because he could not fully use Magi during the test, or rather, the stone could not measure its strength.

Well, if he kept thinking like that, it would be easier for Kang Yu.

He did not plan on joining the guild, so there was no need to prove himself to him.

so what is the sponsor?

— Simply put, our union will help you level up faster.

— What is the price of this offer? Will you ask me to help you with that game on PC Bang?

— Oh, you bite.- — He takes a deep breath and tries to calm down.

haha is just kidding. I really don't know how to play, because this is the first time I've done it.

— Ha, you know, you're the reason I can't go up to silver.

- What? So now we are talking about your ranking in the game? Um, isn't your rank the lowest…

- No no no! My skills are better, I'm just unlucky to get a teammate!

Kang Yu chuckled softly as he watched his calm tone turn into a high-pitched squeak.

One of the strongest people in Korea, the guild leader, did not match the image of someone who was very concerned about gaming.

— Alright, let's end with a joke. Why do you want to sponsor me?

— To make you stronger.

— You know about me and as you may have known, I am a beginner who became a Player no more than two weeks ago.

— And in those two weeks, you managed, hunting alone, to ascend to Level C Gate. Real monsters. And I know you're gonna be a lot stronger, a lot stronger.

Kang Yu remained silent, interested in what else he said.

'Not without reason he is the head of his guild.' He is able to accurately assess the value of other Players and himself.

What he did not know was that Kang Yu had returned to Earth from Hell from ten thousand years in the future, or that he had hidden powers that were becoming increasingly powerful.

Even so, he saw Kang Yu's potential and was confident in his strength.

— How will you support me?

— First, you will get the right to enter all gates up to Gate Level A. Also, if you decide to have a party, we will provide its members. You will be able to choose from our union as you want. You can also sell mana stones through us and avoid taxes.

- Hm…

— We will also provide equipment for you. Of course, for first-class clothing you still have to pay a deposit, but if you need something easier, no problem. If necessary, we can even get you a house and a car.

"Well, that's not bad." Outsiders might even think he joined their guild.

No, even joining a guild, players usually did not get this kind of privilege.

- For what?

— This is an investment for the future.

— However, it is too much.

Kang Yu was not going to join the Red Rose Guild, he was just making use of what was available to him.

'Besides, it wasn't just anyone who came to me, it was the guild head itself. She must be ashamed to do it.' It was not just a matter of the girl's pride, but the entire guild.

'His cup, this is his request.' No matter how talented he was, the conditions offered were simply too good.

Of course, if they knew Kang Yu's true strength, the head itself would kneel down and beg him for a friendly relationship. But not this time.

— In a moment.. I will make a request later, and if you are ready by then, I will greatly appreciate it.

— Um... — His vague answer took him by surprise. — What kind of request?

Upon hearing Kang Yu's question, the girl tried to smile as she was sad.

The girl who had just spoken about the video game excitedly became silent, and her face froze in a sad smile.

When Kang Yu saw this change, he bit his lips.

He felt it was the first time he had seen his real face.

When she wiped the sadness off her face, she replied in a low voice:

— I can't tell you now.

— Hmm, — Kang Yu nodded slowly.

So far, he has not even accepted his offer. If it's a very important request, it's clear why Young-ju hasn't been able to tell him yet.

'If the request doesn't make sense, I'll just refuse.' He decided that if he received the guild's support, he would not sign the contract.

Later, when he learned of the request, he would try to fulfill it if he could, and if he could not, he would refuse and sever all ties with the guild.

Kang Yu's doubts are short-lived.

It was a great opportunity for Kang Yu not only to gain various advantages and support but also to become an ally with the great guild.

Kang Yu was certainly not stupid enough to miss such a lucrative offer.

- I agree.
