054. How to Use Caught Whitefish

Contrary to Baek A-rin’s worries, the words that came out of Kim Si-woo’s mouth were unexpected.

“Baek Ah-rin’s attack skill is [Piercing Ice], And her family skill is [Snow Mountain]. Right?”

Baek A-rin was momentarily shocked by those words.

[Snow Mountain], The family skill and clan name, is very famous, so even so,

Even in the case of other skills, such as piercing ice, there are so many similar skills that it is difficult to accurately distinguish them.

‘Why does Kim Si-woo know that exactly? What on earth is this guy?’

Baek Ho-yoon asked back in a puzzled tone.

“Right. Does it have anything to do with my daughter’s skills?”

“85% humidity that day. It is a park with a lake, and the humidity was abnormally high due to the rain that had fallen the previous day. Even if you lie, you will know right away, so there is no reason to lie.”

Thinking back to that day, the weather was definitely humid, but Baek A-rin wondered what that had to do with it.

“You probably know that ice-based magic is not good for use in humid places. Moisture sometimes condenses into ice.”

‘What is that…’

“Yes, but it’s such a small effect that you don’t need to know about it.”

‘It was real? Rather, why do you know that? No, it wouldn’t be surprising if Kim Si-woo knew. At that time, Panpagia was also the one who saw her weakness and figured out her weakness.

Kim Si-woo continued his words without changing his expression his his at Baek Ho-yoon’s words his his.

‘The average casting speed of [Piercing Ice] Is at least 4 seconds even under optimal circumstances.”

Kim Si-woo glanced at Baek A-rin and continued speaking.

“Even as good as she is, considering her humidity, 3 seconds would be the maximum. You probably already saw the scene of the incident on CCTV. It was a distance that could never be achieved in 3 seconds.”

Baek Arin swallowed her saliva.

It was a skill she didn’t even think about because it was a skill she used normally, like her own body.

Baek Arin’s eyes shook her.

‘If that’s true…’

Baek Ho-yoon asked Kim Si-woo.

“Then wouldn’t it be a different story if [Snow Mountain] Was used?”

Household skill [Snow Mountain]. Although it requires a large amount of mana, the casting speed is almost non-existent, and it may have been saved because it is an immediate attack.

“It was a wide-area attack, so your daughter could have been hurt.” “I could have saved it.”

“Yes.”

But Baek A-rin knew.

‘But that’s impossible… ‘ .’

Kim Si-woo was silent for a moment and then opened his mouth again.

“… “If only she had enough mana.”

“What does that mean?”

“I saw that her fingertips were shaking a little. This is a common depletion phenomenon when she runs out of mana. She must have trained in the morning. “

“Is that right?”

“Yes…”

Baek A-rin answered Baek Ho-yoon’s question with a trembling voice.

Baek Ho-yoon’s expression She had a faint smile

And Baek Ah-rin’s voice her trembles, showing fear that if it weren’t for Kim Si-woo, her younger sister she would have died.

She was confident that Kim Si-woo was a joker card, but at the same time, she had complex emotions mixed with joy that she had beaten her father to the punch with Kim Si-woo she had brought in.

I feel nervous without even realizing it.

I showed off my courage in front of the chairman of Seolsan Mountain. It was an act of bravery because I was sure I could persuade him.

‘I can’t help being nervous.’

I can feel that Chairman Kang Young-ho, whom I saw in Inferno, and Chairman Baek Ho-yoon, who is sitting in front of me now, are not people who got to that position in vain.

‘It’s not easy to feel intimidated, especially if you’re silent.’

At the very least, I was feeling grateful that Chairman Kang Young-ho had joked about it.

Chairman Baek Ho-yoon broke the silence that felt long and nodded.

“I admit it”

Without realizing it, I sighed in relief.

‘Have you convinced me?’

“You managed to think of all that information in such a short period of time. You seem to have a good sense of perspective.”

“Thank you.”

Of course, these detailed conditions could not have been thought of in such a short period of time. However, she only knew that Baek Arin could not save her her younger brother her her.

It is natural that even Chairman Baek Ho-yoon, who has a sharp eye, could not tell.

From the time I read the novel, I was constantly concerned about why Baek A-rin, an elite person who had graduated from a hunter specialization school like Kang Hwa-yeon, was unable to save her younger brother from that distance even though he was right in front of her.

Not only is her her younger brother her her not a threat to her her own succession her her her, but in her her novel her her her, she cares enough about losing her younger brother that it breaks her spirit her her her her.

She definitely tried her best to save it.

Even in her past life, she had questions about the incident and deduced various possibilities on her own.

‘I couldn’t solve it completely in the end.’

I came to this world, got a hint, and put it all together.

‘Well, if it’s not this, it means that Baek A-rin deliberately tried to kill her sister. That’s nonsense.’

However, I am concerned about Baek Ho-yoon’s expression. Cold expression.

I can’t possibly read thoughts.

At that time, Baek Ho-yoon stared into my eyes.

“I see, you are now the lifesaver who saved the life of our Baek Seol’s youngest daughter, Baek Ari. As you said, it is fair to say that the compensation I offered was not enough.”

It’s done.

Now the story is finally making sense.

Baekho Yoon said, taking out a piece of paper that looked like a check from his pocket inside his jacket her her her her.

“Write as much as you want.”

Is this the blank check I only heard about?

I think I’ve seen it a few times in chaebol dramas.

“Oh, it’s only under 5 million. I don’t have that much personal funds that I can manage right now.”

“5 million won? You’re more petty than I thought…”

As the thought jumped out of her mouth at the amount, which was too small to be considered the president of a large clan, Baek Arin was surprised and said, poking her side.

“Dollar! 6,617,300,000 won.”

The amount was ridiculously large, surprising her quick calculations. It’s a number in a unit I’ve never heard of before.

‘Is this a chaebol?’

Honestly, I want to receive it.

What I want is not this kind of compensation.

“I will refuse the money.”

Baek Arin looked at me with wide eyes at my words.

“You’re refusing this? Didn’t you do something wrong?! It’s 6 billion! It’s money I’ll never touch in my life because of that petty dad!”

“…”

Baek Ho-yoon clears his throat as if he is a little embarrassed by Baek A-rin’s words.

‘Baek Arin was the type of person who relaxed when she came home.’

Chairman Baek Ho-yoon looked at me and asked.

“I never thought you would refuse. I thought you came here asking for money, but this is surprising. Is there anything else you want?”

There is.

A request that can only be made to Baek Ho-yoon.

“I know that there is a research institute under the Medical Foundation run by the Snow Mountain Clan. And the fact is that its level is one of the best in the world.”

“It’s just as you said.”

“I have one request to make. My sister is a man of misfit. Do you have any clues on how to cure her?”

Baek A-rin looks a little surprised by my words.

Something that can never be achieved with 6 billion.

[Hidden Tutorial: Healing Marie Kim’s mana maladaptation state.]

6 billion is not a small amount of money, but researching incurable diseases from the ground up?

‘It can’t be possible.’

I have no facilities, no manpower, no infrastructure, and no know-how.

There is a time limit that must be cleared before the ‘Empress Advent’.

In comparison, the snowy mountain already has everything. Moreover, we also have a research center conducting research on mana maladaptation.

There was only one way in the first place.

‘Persuading Baek Ho-yoon.’

Baek Ho-yoon said as if he was puzzled by my words.

“It’s just as you said. Of course, among them, there was a research institute that promoted research on mana maladaptation as part of social contribution activities. Although the results were minimal.”

…It’s worthless.

“What do you think is the reason? Is it because the study of mana maladaptation is difficult because the sample itself is extremely small?”

It can’t be.

“Is it because society’s view of man misfits is not kind?”

It is a world where skill is everything. Skills are religion, and you have to use 3 skills to be normal. Two is inferior. If it is one, it is not even considered a human being.

In such a situation, there is no good way to look at a mana misfit whose body rejects the skill itself, let alone one.

Chairman Baek Ho-yoon nodded slightly and said.

“That’s right. There’s no reason to do it exactly. The company can’t invest money into unprofitable activities. We can’t invest a huge amount of our clan’s funds into a small number of sick people. Even if I push for it, ‘mana maladaptation… ‘ It’s obvious that the old people on the board will block you saying, ‘Is that worth the money?’”

“That is…”

“There is no justification.”

Baek Ho-yoon is right.

A huge amount of money is spent on research.

If you had to start from the bottom, like Mana Maladjustment, for research, 6 billion would seem like a ridiculous amount of money.

Moreover, considering that the view of mana misfits is actually closer to social misfits, there will be no social benefit, let alone financial gain. You can’t push for something like that.

[Is it difficult even with the request of the benefactor who saved the life of your beloved daughter?] Even if you look at Baek Ho-yoon in this way, there is no way you can persuade him, who completely distinguishes between the ‘snowy mountain’ Baek Ho-yoon and the ‘human’ Baek Ho-yoon.

‘On the contrary, it will only cause animosity.’

Then I have only one thing to say.

“Would it be okay if I created that justification?”

Baek Ho-yoon’s eyes changed slightly at my question.

“You mean that?”
