Login Psychopath - Chapter 179



Only Noblemtl

Episode 179.

“Ah, that adventurer… .”

“Do you know who it is?”

“any.”

Surprisingly, Phillips knew something about Ian.

Shining Star was very active in the Kingdom of Eton, and Ian was at the forefront of most of it.

A high ranker, a legendary job user.

Ian was more than enough to become the face of the guild.

As a so-called ‘push’ ranker, Ian always participated in important events or quests, and in the process, his fame stat rose to the sky.

Thanks to that, his name reached the king’s ears.

Phillips nodded.

“He had a great reputation. Was he a saint?”

“Yes.”

“But is it okay for a saint to get involved in something like this?”

Phillips said, as if he was slightly taken aback.

Intentionally causes a wave of monsters to appear in the opponent’s territory.

Because even Phillips himself knew that what he was planning was not so clean no matter where you looked.

But is it really right to involve a saint in such a matter?

If Lee Shin starts something and things go wrong, he can just say, “Oh, that won’t work,” but Phillips wasn’t in a position to do that.

So, it is only natural that there will be concerns.

“Hmm, I guess I should think about it a little more carefully… … .”

So, it looked like he was going to take a step back, but Isin firmly stopped him.

“No, it is possible.”

“Is it possible?”

“Of course. Why not? Just ask me to do it.”

“Then there will be friction with the church….”

It wasn’t difficult to persuade.

Because it was just a matter of scratching the part he cared about the most.

“Just because you are a saint doesn’t mean you are not a citizen of this kingdom, right?”

“That’s true.”

“Then it is okay. When Your Majesty gives orders, no one can dare disobey them. No matter who it is. Isn’t that right?”

“… … That’s right! Hahaha!”

[Philips Leonis feels better.]

[Philips Leonis’s intimacy increases.]

“I said, chuckling,” said Phillips.

“Okay, I’ll call him somehow. And I’ll make sure that no other words are said in the classroom. Then you can take care of the rest, right?”

“Of course! Just leave it to me.”

* * *

After meeting with Phillips, Yishin went straight to find his group.

And he said to the rankers.

“You can go back now.”

“Huh? Where?”

“To your guild.”

“Our guild… … Huh, really!?!?”

“uh.”

It wasn’t needed anymore.

Anyway, I was planning to have Ian do all the dirty work.

The noble hunt wasn’t over yet, but since there were only three left anyway, it was enough even without them.

If you stay and run into a Shining Star guild member, that will be a bigger problem.

Isin waved his hand.

“go.”

“Really… …?”

“… … .”

The rankers were left scratching the back of their heads and feeling bewildered because they had suffered so much up until now.

You treated me to death every single day, and now you’re suddenly letting me go so easily?

Are you testing us?

I even thought about this.

At this, Lee Shin replied, looking slightly bewildered.

“Why, you don’t like it?”

“Uh, yeah?”

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t like it. … … As expected, even though it looks like you don’t like it, it was good because you leveled up a lot.”

“What!?”

You speak as if you know everything.

At this, the rankers were startled and jumped.

“… No, no! What the hell is that!”

“I’ll go!”

“Please let me go!!”

“Okay, go ahead.”

The rankers left right away.

When they were out of sight, Arthur asked.

“What do you do now?”

Lee Shin explained what happened inside.

He said he would go around the nobles’ estates and cause monster waves, and he would use Ian and Shining Star at this time.

“Wow, wow… … .”

Jeong Yu-ra covered her mouth and let out a sound that was neither exclamation nor sigh.

“You really are eating even the bones.”

“Why to this extent?”

“I’m not praising you!”

“know.”

Lee Shin nodded.

But, contrary to what Jung Yu-ra was trying to say, he seemed to understand.

“You know something now. Of course, it’s disappointing to end it like this.”

“What? No, I…”

“So when this is all over, I’m going to kill you too.”

“……okay.”

Then, you can further increase the trauma stack of .

The more you stack, the closer you get to ultimate, so it’s good to do this whenever possible.

“So when do you move?”

“Well, the King said he would call me, so I guess I’ll have to wait.”

It will probably take a few days.

Because it was a task that required contact with the religious community while avoiding the highly sensitive gaze of the nobles.

Thanks to that, there was nothing for Lee Shin to do until then.

Yishin looked back at the group and said.

“Let’s each take a rest and then meet again.”

“Even if you tell me to rest, there’s nothing I can do?”

“Then why don’t you go to the arena?”

The response to the video of Jeong Yu-ra’s arena that was uploaded a long time ago was quite good.

If possible, I hope the next video will be uploaded before the reaction cools down.

More than anything, I thought that things were much better now compared to then.

It should have gotten better because I taught it by beating it myself.

Jeong Yu-ra nodded.

“Okay. Nothing to do, I understand.”

“Then I’ll go with you. I’ll be doing the editing anyway.”

“Huh? Oh, okay.”

Jung Yu-ra and Arthur left together.

Lee Shin watched the two for a moment and then ended the game.

“… … .”

[log out.]

[Exit the game.]

It was much faster than usual, but today there was a reason for it.

During the day, Jeong Hee-seon had told Lee Shin that she had something to say.

‘What do you want to say? What is it?’

‘Let’s talk about that later.’

‘… … ?’

I wasn’t told to come out quickly, but I just came out quickly because I thought it might be something related to treatment.

Lee Shin went downstairs.

Jeong Hee-seon was sitting on the sofa, flipping through a thick file of documents one by one.

Isin made a noise.

“Why me?”

“Oh, you’re here?”

Jeong Hee-sun took her eyes off the file and looked at Lee Shin.

Then, when he saw that Isin’s gaze was directed at the file, he covered it and put it aside.

“Patient records.”

“Me?”

“No? Another patient.”

“… … .”

At the mention of someone else, the interest in Isin’s eyes disappeared immediately.

Lee Shin went straight to the main point.

What are you talking about?

“Is this related to counseling?”

“… … Well, it’s similar.”

“!”

“No, it’s nothing serious. Really. It’s just… … .”

Jeong Hee-sun took a moment to choose her words.

No, I took a long time to choose.

“Hmm~~.”

“????”

The practice of understanding a person’s psychology through their facial expressions.

This was one of the exercises that Isin, who had difficulty understanding other people’s emotions, did a lot as a child to socialize.

And of course, the expressions on Jeong Hee-sun and Lee Si-eun’s faces were what Lee Shin referenced the most.

Thanks to that, Lee Shin was able to read Jeong Hee Sun’s expression to some extent.

The expression on her face as she read that sentence just now seemed to be that she was wondering how to put it into words.

‘what?’

Isin tilted his head.

What are you trying to say?

But in the end, perhaps because she couldn’t find a way to say it in a roundabout way, the look of worry gradually disappeared from Jeong Hee-seon’s expression.

She asked abruptly.

“… … Hmm, Shin-ah.”

“yes.”

“When you played that game, you were a ranker or something. Is that right?”

“Yes. Uh, yes?”

But, a question I never imagined!

Lee Shin nodded his head bewilderedly.

At the same time, a question arose.

… …Why are you suddenly asking this?

Have you happened to see an old video?

So you were shocked and called me out?

“huh?”

“yes?”

Jeong Hee-seon tilted her head.

“What video?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

‘That’s not it.’

“Really? Anyway, you’re a ranker.”

“Uh… …but not now.”

“Anyway, you were a ranker in the past, right?”

“Yes… … Well. Yes.”

Isin nodded, wondering why he was suddenly asked such a question.

Because it was true.

And he’s not just a ranker, he’s a ranker among rankers.

He was a high ranker.

Even this is because Isin does so many strange things, if he had focused solely on growth like the other rankers, he could have gotten first place.

This is an unrivaled #1 ranking that no one can surpass.

Of course, this was an assumption that had no particular meaning since Lee Shin wasn’t particularly interested in that.

Jeong Hee-seon continued to ask.

“And when you say ‘ranker,’ don’t you mean people who are good at games?”

“that’s right.”

“How good are you?”

“… … Hmm, you could probably make money with that?”

It was a bit of a different story, but for Jeong Hee-seon, who didn’t know much about games, that explanation made more sense.

Money is made.

That means that it was a skill that went beyond a simple hobby and was treated as a professional occupation.

It was much more intuitive than a detailed explanation of what physical strength and game understanding were.

“But why?”

“… … Huh? Why are you asking?”

“yes yes.”

Yishin answered the question with a slight bewilderment.

Of course I don’t know, so I’m asking.

“Why? Should I know?”

“No, that’s not it… … . Oh, I see. Well, that could be the case. That kid is also scared… … .”

“… … ???”

Jeong Hee-seon mutters as if she realized something on her own.

A question mark appeared on Yishin’s forehead… .

Instead of answering that, she said something else.

“No. Mom is just talking to herself.”

“?”

“Because it is the counselor’s principle.”

“Huh? Ah… … .”

Yishin nodded in understanding.

Seeing him suddenly ask about games, it seemed like he was counseling someone who was about to go to the hospital for game addiction.

… … That is what Lee Shin understood on his own.

“… … Hmm, okay, I understand.”

“… … .”

“By the way, how has Gia been these days?”

“Who is it?”

“Gia. I see you a lot at the hospital these days.”

Lee Shin nodded.

If I think about it, I’ve had a lot of strange encounters lately.

Since you are receiving advice from different people, it is not easy for it to turn out like this unless you intentionally try to match it.

“There are many strange things,” replied Isin.

“It just doesn’t seem that different… … .”

“Really? Didn’t you ask something?”

“hmm.”

Lee Shin thought deeply about his old memories.

I think it was probably something to do with the game… .

That was the end.

To be honest, I’m not that interested in other people, so I don’t remember the details.

Isin answered, scratching his cheek.

“I did it but I forgot… … .”

“… … Um, yeah.”

Jeong Hee-seon frowned slightly.

It seemed like he was feeling a little suffocated.

“!”

When Isin, who was sensitive to this, immediately changed his expression, she let out a hollow laugh and said in disbelief.

“You’re only perceptive in strange places.”

“It’s not a matter of intuition, it’s a matter of observation.”

Still no clue.

Even if I notice something, I’m not very interested in other people, so if I don’t pay attention to it, it quickly evaporates from my memory.

Jeong Hee-seon sighed at the constant correction.

“I know, you little shit. … Okay, you can go now.”

“Is this the end of asking?”

“For now. I might call you again later… … No. Just don’t worry about it.”

“… … ?”

It was a word that I couldn’t understand until the end.

… … And, it was much later that Isin realized what this conversation meant.
