Players Who Returned 10,000 Years Later

Chapter 33: I've Told You, I'm Stronger Than You Think (Part 1)

I concur.

When Chae Young-Ju heard Kang Yu's reply, her face beamed and she exhaled loudly as if saying, 'I told you so.'

— That's a good decision.

— When will you tell me what the request is? – Kang Yu asked in an arrogant tone, his lips grinning.

- When the time comes. You don't have the power for that now.

— Hm. — The man sighed in silence and looked at Young-ju.

'What will he ask?'

Actually, it was true that there were many things that he could not do at the moment.

But he doesn't even know it. He doesn't know who he's actually talking to.

Chae Young-ju only knows that she is a talented player who received her ID two weeks ago.

— You are wrong.

- What?

— I'm stronger than you think.

Young-ju just smiled without saying a word.

Of course, for him, known as one of the best Players in the country, hearing such a thing from a Player who started his journey two weeks ago was hilarious.

—Ha, yes, yes. Understood. But I haven't been able to tell you about that request, not just because you're inexperienced.

— And because what?

— I don't have enough proof yet. It's not something you can talk about without good reason and evidence.

Kang Yu had trouble understanding what he was talking about.

He looked at the evasive girl once more and shrugged his shoulders.

"No need to find out now." He might have reason to say this.

In addition, if he does not accept the request, he will reject it later. And until then, there's no need to worry about it.

— This is my number, write it down.

— Always nice to have a pretty girl number.

— Are you not a little late to start flattering me? – Young-ju jokingly replied to her while laughing.

He thought Kang Yu was joking with him.

"But I'm serious." Kang Yu grinned and wrote down the girl's phone number.

She was no match for Han Sol, but it was still fun to get a beautiful girl's phone number.

Kang Yu really did not just flatter her.

Compared to Lilith, who tried to take her to her bed every night, all the girls on Earth looked like angels.

— When can I get the equipment? — What Kang Yu is most interested in is free equipment.

'I wonder how many items and equipment will help in battle.' He thought that with 666 Strength, the equipment should not help much in battle.

As long as he had a sufficient number of Magi, even without using the equipment he could attack the enemy firmly and successfully dodge the attacks to defend himself.

So so far he doesn't need to wear Player gear.

'But if it helps save the Magi, why not give it a try?' If the equipment could help him in battle, it meant that he had more Magi left to fight.

Since he did not have an unlimited number of Magi like he did in Hell right now, preserving his Magi was a good idea.

'Using Power eats too many Magi.'

After reaching 30 levels and 3 ranks, Magi Kang Yu had grown bigger, but not too much so that it could be wasted just like that.

— If you want, we can go now.

- That's cool.

— Then, follow me. We'll go to our office.

- Where is it?

— At Seoul Station.

The same station where the Player Control Office is located.

Kang Yu nodded and followed the girl.

When he did, he saw a luxury car parked nearby.

- Look at that!

— Isn't that Porsche 918 Spyder?

- This is crazy…

Passersby turned to look at the expensive imported car.

Chae Young-ju, who quickly passes through the crowd, pulls out a key and disables the car's alarm system.

- Enter.

- Wow! — Kang Yu's admiration sounded as soon as the girl opened the door.

'Is this really the same girl in sportswear and hats from PC Bang?' — He looks really cool now because the guy really wonders if it's the same person in front of him.

"The car created a completely different image."

Even when he was behind the wheel, he looked very different.

Kang Yu had no interest in foreign cars before, as he could not even afford a domestic car. So now, watching one of the strongest players sit behind the wheel of a luxury car, he was completely shocked.

- What are you doing? Hurry up and sit down, — said the girl as she placed her hands on the steering wheel while looking at Kang Yu., who had just stood there silly.

He nodded slightly and sat in the front seat.

'I'm done.' He thought about how not to fit in such a slick chair.

— How much is it worth?

— I'm not sure. When I bought it, I didn't see the price. Probably about a billion won.

The number was so high that Kang Yu involuntarily opened his mouth.

Chae Young-ju pressed the gas pedal.

The Porsche was sliding along the road like it was sliding on smooth ice.

— As expected of an expensive car. It doesn't just go, it floats.

- Should I find one for you as well? — Young-ju very casually asks this, as if she would order a cup of coffee from the coffee shop.

Of course, Kang Yu's eyes shone.

- Really?

— That's part of our deal.

— Miss…

(PP: Noona — male calls for women older than him. Closer, friendly, and sweet.)

- What?

— I will call you Young-ju-noona.

When she heard the statement, the girl's face turned disgusted, and her expression looked like she was chewing and swallowing insects by accident.

It was the second time in the last half hour that he had made her look so disgusted.

— I would greatly appreciate if you buy such a car. — Kang Yu is under no obligation to receive such a luxury car, but he sees no reason to hand over the gift.

— But if you refuse my request, I will immediately take it back.

— So you're actually a stingy person.

— There are too many hungry mouths in my entourage.

Kang Yu grinned at the evasive answer.

— This is our office.

- That's big…

He stopped the car in front of the building with more than 20 floors.

It looked new, decorated with elegant roses.

'So this is the power of the big guild.' A large guild was on the same level as a large corporation.

Kang Yu thinks that being in a relationship with such people is a good idea, so he follows Young-ju into the building.

As soon as they went inside, a man in glasses and a black robe came up to them.

Directing his gaze from Young-ju to Kang Yu, he said:

— Our union leader has told us about you. It's nice to meet you. I'm Park Hyun Woo, head of Red Rose Human Resources department. And this is Moon Yeon Ho, head of the task force.

— Oh Kang Yu's.

Unlike the respectful Park Hyun Woo, Moon Yeon Ho looked at Kang Yu from head to toe.

— I guess your conversation with the head was a success, because you are here.

— With such conditions, who would dare to refuse? Especially considering you are the Red Rose.

— Ha-ha-ha, we do not hesitate it. — Hyun Woo smiled small and turned to Yeon Ho.

— Can we go directly to the warehouse with equipment?

— I'll take it myself, Hyun Woo. There's a lot you have to do.

- Thank you.

— Then I will go with you, — said Moon Yeon Ho, still staring at Kang Yu analytically.

- For what?

— I want to know this person better, to see his ability.

— Hmm. Better get to know this guy now because we have to work together. Lefs go.

He headed for the elevator, waving his hand to signal for those people to follow him.

The elevator with Young-ju, Kang Yu and Yeon Ho stops on the 15th floor.

— This is our inventory warehouse.

Each item is stored in a separate, clear container.

— Ho-ho!

— You can choose something from here. If you decide to take a high-class uniform, you have to pay the deposit. — He points to the side where ten sets lay.

At first glance it is clear that the quality of the high-end uniforms is much better than the usual ones.

Kang Yu looked around.

— How much does it cost for high-end clothes?

— 50 million won per piece. It's pretty cheap.

Kang Yu did not say anything. He heard, of course, that the clothes were expensive, but so far…

'I don't even have that kind of money right now.' Since he had mainly changed which stones he had made into Magi, he had not exchanged that much money. 'Even if I sell all the stones which I get, I doubt I will have enough.'

That's too expensive.

'It's a pity.' Just looking at the equipment is enough to tell the difference.

Kang Yu turned away from the high-class uniform:

— Then I want to see this…

At that moment, a deafening sound rang out in the warehouse.

Kang Yu turned to the source of the voice.

Moon Yeon Ho stood there, drilling Kang Yu with a dissatisfied look.

— Speak politely!

— Hah?

— Speak politely to the guild leader! — Yeon Ho spoke angrily.

Kang Yu looked at him and smiled.

— What if I don't want to?
