I'm not a Regressor
Chapter 230: The Council of the Seven Stars (6)
"Wh-what do you think youre doing, Ohjin?" Namgung Huis mouth fell open in surprise. How could he kick the guard through the entrance? It wasnt like they were at some back alley market; it was a gathering of Seven Star candidates!
"That's what I want to say," Ohjin replied in a cold tone as he glared at Hui. "Youre the one who made him deny me entry, right?"
What do you mean?
"The guard attacked me when I tried to enter and said I wasnt qualified. He even used his stigma.
"What?" Hui looked at Ohjin like he thought he was spouting bullshit. Hed ordered the guard to block the entrance on the pretext of time, but hed never told him to attack. On top of that, the guard had even supposedly used his stigma?
No matter how unqualified he believed Ohjin to be, there were certain lines you couldnt cross when it came to a countrys representative candidate. "I never ordered that," Hui firmly stated.
"Is that so? He attacked me and said you ordered it."
"Nonsense!" Hui hit the table and glared at Ohjin. "Do you have any evidence?"
"There's a CCTV camera in the hallway. You can look at the footage," Ohjin said.
"You'll have to take responsibility if youre lying." Hui gave Ohjin a fierce look and contacted Wei on his phone. Shortly after, Wei came into the conference room and held up a tablet with the footage.
"Play it, Hui ordered.
"Y-yes. Wei wiped the sweat on his forehead and hurriedly played the video.
- You cant enter
They saw a recording of the guard standing in front of the door and swinging his fist at Ohjin. Of course, the telltale blue light of stigma use leaked out of the left side of the bodyguards chest.
"No, what is this?" Huis mouth dropped open, and he was at a loss for words. Seeing the bodyguard, who seemed to have taken a large dose of drugs, was enough to make him feel like hed been hit in the back of the head with a hammer.
-You dont deserve to breathe the same air as Mr. Namgung Hui!
Huis name was clearly mentioned in the video, which even recorded sound.
Silence fell in the conference room.
Ohjin looked back at Hui and spoke in a quiet tone. "Are you still going to claim you had nothing to do with it?
"I never gave such an order."
"That's strange. Youre saying the guard did it of his own volition?"
"That's" Hui struggled to speak.
I think its best to discuss this at a later date. A woman stood in front of a vivid holographic image that looked to have been created from a relic and calmly said, Arent we here to talk about the competitions rules and schedule? Her voice was egregiously clerical.
She pushed up her horn-rimmed glasses and looked over the 28 other Awakeners in the room before calmly speaking as if she had no interest in the commotion. "My name is Olivia, and I am in charge of this Council of the Seven Stars. I normally work as an aide to Mr. Allen Oscal."
After her brief introduction, she stiffly continued with, Since Ohjin just arrived, I will briefly summarize what was already said.
The holographic image showed a wide, birds-eye view. "This is what the tournament dungeon looks like.
She used a laser pointer to highlight certain areas of the image as she spoke. "There are several terrain types within the dungeon, including mountain, underwater, and desert terrain. Your starting point will be randomly determined."
28 pillars of light appeared in the hologram. The rankings will be determined by points. The candidate who gains the most points within the time limit becomes the top scorer. There are two ways to earn points: one is to get rid of a monster within the dungeon and earn points based on its rank.
"What's the other one?" Ohjin asked,
"The council has recruited ordinary people to hide throughout the dungeon.
Ordinary people?
Theyve completely forgotten about the guard. Ohjin smirked as he recalled how the medics had taken the guard. Well, that was good for him. If theyd taken a closer look at the video, they mightve found out I manipulated it with Mirage.
He wasnt acquainted with any of the other candidates, and none of them were from South Korea, so he got up and left the conference room.
A hero, huh? Mumbling the word hero, which was as awkward as chewing sand, Ohjin took the elevator.
* * *
"Have a good trip!" The next day, Ha-eun embraced Ohjin in front of the warp device that would take him to the dungeon and kissed him on the cheek.
"I'll be leaving now," he said.
"Just so you know, you'll have to swim home if you dont get the top score."
"What do you think this issome kind of World Cup?"
"It's similar." Ha-eun giggled and patted Ohjin on the shoulder. "I'll be rooting for you, so let's have a party afterward!"
The competition hasnt started yet, so dont exaggerate too much.
"This is all because I believe in you."
Ohjin smirked.
[My child.] Vega flew up and settled on his head. [Do you not want this lady to go with you?]
"Well, according to regulations, I have to go in alone."
[But aren't we one being?] Vega pouted as if she were dissatisfied.
Ohjin held up his hand to her. "I'll go alone since I dont want there to be any rumors of unfairness when I win.
[Fuu. Alright.] Vega sighed and nodded regretfully. [If you come back as a Seven Star, I promise to bless you.]
He nodded and moved toward the warp device.
Whooooong!
The light from the relic wrapped around his body. It feels different from a gate. He supposed it felt more nauseating. Whatever it was, it didnt feel good.
"Let's see" He looked down at the silver bracelet on his wrist that the council had given him. The number 0 stood out clearly.
Is this the number of points I have now? He pressed the red button next to the bracelet.
Whoong
A hologram created a birds-eye view of the dungeonthe same image hed seen the day before.
"It's like a mini-map." Thankfully, his location was marked with a red dot on the holographic map. It only displayed his location, though, and not any nearby monsters or civilians.
If I go this way its the mountain area. Having grasped his approximate location with the holographic map, he slowly moved forward. Let's go to the underwater area for now. He had water-friendly skills and the stigma of Hippocampus, which made him good at fighting underwateran area most Awakeners shied from.
He believed he would be able to monopolize the monsters there.
"Alright."
Clang!
Using his wire shooter consecutively on high rocks or trees, he swung through the air toward the underwater area. Then
Kyaaaaaaa! S-save me! A piercing scream reverberated through the forest.

They all began to gather and discuss their strategies, and Hui continued to stare daggers at Ohjin as he gathered with the other Chinese candidates.Theyve completely forgotten about the guard.
