Round 2 Starts With 990,000 Points - Chapter 66

66 – Auction (3)

Bongnam Han agreed with Seol Gyu-geon that Ymir was strong, but did not agree with the statement that he had to make a detailed plan before handling it.

‘The fear of losing one’s life prevents me from making good judgments.’

He reviewed Ymir’s battle scenes and he decided he was better than Ymir.

‘I’m not someone I can’t handle if it’s just Jeon Hun-seung.’

Han Bong-nam had a strong confirmation bias, and he tended to ignore information that did not match his views and make judgments by gathering only information that matched his opinion.

So, he ignored all evidence that Ymir was stronger than himself and concentrated on the evidence that he would be judged weaker. So there’s no way he can rightly judge the level of combat.

‘If I take care of Ymir alone, the chancellor will rate me higher. If I do well, I might be able to get a spot.’

In Mine society, skill is the most important. Seol Gyu-geon, who plays a pivotal role in the gathering of demons right now, is also a sophomore, not a junior. The reason is that he is better than the 3rd graders. Therefore, if Seol Gyu-geon was reluctant to deal with Ymir by himself, his reputation would greatly increase and he would be noticed by the president. Then he can take a big spot.

“Hmm.”

Bongnam Han thought so and decided to take care of Ymir alone.

“But there is nothing wrong with being cautious.”

Han Bong-nam recalled Seol Kyu-geon being cautious, and approached cautiously because he was reluctant.

‘I need to gather information to be sure.’

He wanted to see Ymir fight one more time and then she would be sure of victory.

But Ymir didn’t fight anymore. She no longer has anyone asking for a match against Ymir.

Should I apply for a match?

Han Bong-nam thought about it and shook his head.

I don’t like it.

If you want to properly know the other person’s information, you have to demonstrate your skills properly on this side, but I was worried that my weaknesses would be exposed in the process.

Should I order someone else?

“Good idea.”

I happened to know someone from the same grade at the academy. It was Eunha-min. Eun Ha-min and Han Bong-nam were relatives, but the relationship wasn’t bad, even if they weren’t close.

As soon as Han Bong-nam thought of her, he contacted her Eun Ha-min and he called her out. It seemed that it would take a long time to convince Eun Ha-min, but when he talked about Daejeon, he suddenly showed up.

“What is it? Why did you call me?”

“Aren’t you going to fight Ymir?”

“What?”

Eun Ha-min wrinkled his face because he was dumbfounded.

“Why am I fighting with him? Didn’t you hear the rumor? He’s so strong I’m sure I’ll lose, so why would I fight him?”

“I have a favor to ask you.”

“Please? What.”

“If you play just one game with Ymir, I will give you points.”

Eun Ha-min’s eyes widened.

“… Really?”

“Really.”

She hid her expression, then crossed her arms and showed a reserved attitude.

“Why are you doing this?”

Han Bong-nam came up with a plausible reason.

“I don’t like the caveman.”

“You must be one of those people who hate him too.”

Many of her first-year students were jealous of Ymir for her improved grades.

“Yes. I want to destroy it once, but before that, I want to gather some information about him.”

“I played a lot against him, didn’t you watch it?”

“I didn’t see it.”

Hamin Eun thought.

Anyway, this guy has a strange corner.

The appearance is gloomy, and it is doubtful whether they are of the same bloodline.

“But how are you going to destroy the boy who also beat Yoo Seong-won?”

She thought about it and then suddenly had a question, so she asked.

“You don’t know that. Are you going to will you speak?”

Trading points is a disciplinary reason. But Eunha-min had nothing to be afraid of. She is the one who was frantic about buying her victory points right away. She has nothing to lose as long as she gives her victory points simply for playing against Ymir. Unconditional benefit.

“How much will you give me?”

“Two points.”

“If I apply for a match and lose, my victory point goes down by 1 point. Then you only get 1 point.”

“You and I are in the same tier. Twice I can’t give you match points. Because you can only play one match against the same cadet.”

Hamin Eun thought.

If Ymir is tier 1, she is tier 2, and she fights against a higher tier opponent and wins, she gets at least 3 points. However, there is no way to win, so it is unconditionally -1 point.

However, in order to receive Han Bong-nam’s victory points, he can only receive 2 points per game in the same tier.

Hmm, you’re right.

You can’t get 3 points, you have to play twice to get 4 points, but you can’t play twice against the same cadet. In the end, he gets 1 point and has to listen to Han Bong-nam.

Eun Ha-min held out his palm after much thought.

“Then pay in advance instead.”

Han Bong-nam nodded his head.

“Are you going to do it?”

“Uh.”

“Okay. Then trust me and pay in advance.”

He applied for a war against Eunhamin and surrendered after a while. Eun Ha-min said after confirming that the 2 points had been received.

“Hey. But right now, Ymir is out of the academy, so I can’t apply for a match. Hey, when she returns to the academy, I’ll apply for a match and let you know.”

“Hmm. Good.”

She made an appointment with Han Bong-nam and disappeared. Han Bong-nam thought while looking at her back.

You wouldn’t eat and fry, would you?

* * *

I stared at the woman in the demon mask.

What is that person?

Antique auctions are lucky random boxes. You can’t call such a large amount if you’re not sure. But she called for 100 million. If you’re not sure, you’re not insane.

“Hey, that b*tch is crazy.”

The man wearing the cat mask next to me said. He stroked his chin and continued his words.

“Hmm, no. Is it a target?”

“Aim?”

“Since you keep buying books, it seems the auction house recruited a new person. Could it be that he is deliberately raising the price?”

I thought.

That makes sense.

But I’ve come this far, but I can’t get out. I charged her a higher price than hers.

“110 Million.”

Then she spoke up.

“200 Million.”

Crazy b*tch.

Seeing that he sings that high, he seems confident.

Said the auctioneer.

“200 Million came out. Is there anyone you would like to call higher?”

I raised my hand.

“300 Million.”

“300 Million came out.”

The woman said.

“400 Million.”

I thought it would go up to 1 billion.

Then the woman looked back. Our eyes met and her shoulders trembled. She was aware of seeing something.

What is it?

I looked behind me just in case. Of course, no one is in the back seat.

What a strange person.

You can’t have a book stolen by a strange person. I raised my hand and once again raised the price.

“410 Million.”

Then I looked at the woman’s eyes, and she looked at me again and stood up. And right after that, she slipped out of the auction house.

The cat mask burst out laughing.

“Heh heh heh, the person I recruited from the auction house was right. You. I was targeted.”

I ignored him. The foreign energy felt in the woman was telling her that it was not a target.

“You have won 410 million bids.”

After a while, the moderator spoke and the antique auction was over. I completed the transaction and received the brochure. And carefully checking the authenticity, the more I read the booklet, the more the blood on my face disappeared.

Why is this here?

From noble mtl dot com

On the first page of the booklet, martial arts learned from Park Dae-shik were written.

* * *

The Requiem Guild is one of the 15 largest guilds in Korea. However, the reality is a criminal organization that commits numerous crimes as a guild in the back world that represents the black society.

Dang Min-jong, a hunter of the Requiem Guild, was the deputy manager in charge of the Ansan branch and had a good understanding of crime.

So, while he was proud of his achievements, he had no doubt that he would be promoted to branch manager.

I’m the only one who fits the position of branch manager in Ansan.

But after the promotion screening, another hunter sat in the seat. He didn’t even know him, so when he recognized him, he was the family of the guild leader.

Crazy.

Dang Min-jong was absurd, dumbfounded, and out of anger, so he gave up his guild work. Furthermore, he committed embezzlement because it was a pity that he made billions of profits every year.

But as soon as he embezzled 100 million won, the fact was discovered and a disciplinary committee was held. He was expelled from the guild with no severance pay and all his property confiscated.

Ah, this is a society of criminal gangs.

A normal person would have committed suicide, but he was no ordinary person. So he dreamed of a comeback in the back alleys of Ansan and searched for Hogu.

Also, there is a lot of money in the auction house.

What he was aiming for was not the people who manage the auction house. He was a participant in the auction house.

And just in time, I found a hukou.

This is a bunch of cubs and auctions.

He was stunned to see that he spent 20 million won on a booklet, but seeing that he spent 410 million won, I think he grabbed the stick.

Dangminjong took off his cat mask and followed Ymir.
