However, Leeha, who did not know the whole story, was unable to say anything to sort out the situation.

Betrayal?! No, he wasn’t even close enough with them to use the word betrayal.

Nevertheless, they were in the same party together.

‘I understand that it’s some other guild that Rising Sun commissioned. But this, could there be such a coincidence?’

Leeha couldn’t easily accept that it was a coincidence that the person he knew and party played with while leveling up, belonged to the guild commissioned by Rising Sun among numerous guilds.

“How did it happen? Rising Sun couldn’t have known that we were acquainted with each other-.”

“Haha, Rising Sun? There’s no way the idiot Kyokujitsu would have known that. Should I say that Oka-san had been monitoring you ever since?”

“Yes, yes, yes. If you look at it, we did not kill Leeha in Mount Sheymoore, right?”

“Ah, yes. Right. At most, I tried to prevent him from catching the Kobold boss. Heung, come to think of it, the idiots from Rising Sun appeared at that time, so we had to leave……. Should I thank Rising Sun?”

“Kuhaha, this is fun! This is fun, Ma-chan! However, it’s a pity that I wasn’t able to see your face when we stabbed you in the back, without being able to scroll.”

That was what a sister said.

Mame Hana dressed as a nun wore a smile on her face while she said that she had stabbed someone in the back. It didn’t suit her innocent face at all.

“T-That’s right. That’s the advantage of our job.”

‘Kuheok-! Why……? Why me?!’

“Haha, Then after we are done here, and get our share, I will go on a hot spring trip for a week. Isn’t that right, Hana-chan?”

“Yes, yes!”

Every time Mame Hana and Matsushige talked excitedly, Leeha felt goosebumps.

It wasn’t because Kyokujitsu was coming soon, the two of them betrayed, or because they said psychopathic things.

‘Oka-san……? Was there someone paying attention to me from the beginning?’

‘Does it mean that these two discovered me in Mount Sheymoore, because of the person they call Oka-san? Who is Oka-san? From where did they know?’

‘No. I can find out after escaping from here. If what they said is true, Kyokujitsu will be here soon.’

He will never be alone.

The rest of the Rising Sun experts will be brought along.

If he didn’t have experts, Mame Hana and Matsushige’s guild should have some.

Anyway, Leeha needed to deal with them himself.

In other words, what Leeha needed to do right now wasn’t to think about the identity of the mysterious Oka-san.

‘I have to escape. I can investigate later.’

Leeha glanced at Matsushige and Mame Hana. Carelessness comes when everything goes smoothly.

As the two giggled, Leeha secretly moved his hands to his bag.

“What would be quicker, you taking out a bomb, or my sword cutting your neck? We don’t mind killing you right now. We can still complete the mission if we show your body. We won’t get the extra 20% share though.”

Matsushige’s sword was faster than Leeha’s hand.

It meant that he was acting foolishly in the Kobold Village. Leeha bit his lips.

“How much. How much are you going to get paid for?”

“A poor bastard like you can’t earn that much money in Middle Earth for the rest of your life.”

“Well, you wouldn’t know just by looking at me. I also earn quite a bit of money. If I can deal with the right boss monsters, I can get around 100 gold quickly-.”

“Puhahaha-! 100gold? 100gold?”

“Kuhaha, Ma-chan! Ha Leeha is playing with us?!”

“-What?”

100 gold is worth 12 million Korean won.

They could dismiss that kind of money? Matsushige,

who had been laughing for a while, opened his mouth, he could only think that Leeha was looking down on Middle Earth.

“The money we will receive is 480 gold. I won’t tell you how much Oka-san will receive from Risin Sun, but…… let alone 100 gold, don’t you know that even 200 gold is nothing to us?”

“F-Four hundred eighty?”

The pirates in the manhwa would be proud of that amount of bounty on their neck, but it was not an amount that Leeha had.

At the very least, Leeha would not be able to bribe these two with money. And he had no time to think of anything else.

Creak-.

The door opened and a huge shadow fell into the house.

“You are here!”

Matsushige raised his voice to greet. In order to grasp the identity of the silhouette, Leeha opened his eyes.

‘He’s big! Is Oka-san that giant……‘?’

The first to come in was a giant. A man with a strong impression and a thick beard on his lower face. What followed was a human with a sharp impression.

“Ah, you-.”

“I am shinobi Matsushige. I have received instructions from Oka-san.”

However seeing Matsushige say his greeting, Leeha knew that his guess was wrong. Additionally, Matsushige’s greetings and the human standing in a position to assist the giant, Leeha immediately recognized the giant’s identity.

“Kyokujitsu…”

“Oh, hahaha, Ha Leeha……. Are you Ha Leeha, the Setting Sun Desperado?”

Guild master Kyokujitsu of Rising Sun.

The symbol of the Rising Sun could not be seen anywhere. It was a way for the guild master to avoid getting attacked.

Leeha and Kyokujitsu measured each other during the brief moment their eyes met.

“Indeed. If such a stocky guy hid and attacked, he wouldn’t have been found so easily.”

“That’s right, president. However, that’s all there is to it.”

The director of planning sharpened his teeth and looked down on Leeha. Considering the accumulated losses in the past, he was not able to calm down!

“Isn’t it too much to solve your problem inside the game using outside forces?”

“What is? What happened in the game was solved in the game. Whom did I bring from the outside? Did I do something like that director of planning?”

“Of course not, president. It was solved by requesting the guild in the game.”

“That right. Hahaha!”

Kyokujitsu laughed heartily.

The house, which was not very spacious, was full

with the entrance of Kyokujitsu, the director of planning, and two Rising Sun members.

As Leeha, Matsushige, and Mame Hana were there as well, it became cramped.

‘Here’s the bomb. If I throw this and use force barrier, I will have a chance.’

But that was all.

The space was locked. Leeha didn’t even know who was waiting outside, moreover, his musket had been stolen with its barrel cut in half!

‘Damn, will I be forced to die? I’m not scared of death but…’

The thing is, Leeha didn’t know where this is. It would be good if he died and resurrected at the capital.

Then it would end in just one death. He could pay them back later. However, Leeha did not think that was possible.

They must be near a village with few guards.

If he gets resurrected in such a village, he would experience Rising Sun’s infinity killing.

And Leeha’s assumption was correct. Rising Sun poured 1,200 gold and Oka-san responded perfectly to their request.

“Haha, there’s no need to think too much. I found a way for you to live, Ha Leeha.”

“What?”

“You will come to Rising Sun.”

“What?”

“P-President?!”

Leeha was not the only one perplexed by Kyokujitsu’s words. The director of planning sitting next to him looked at Kyokujitsu in surprise.

Leeha noticed that it was not something that had been previously discussed.

“What would we get if we squeeze him to death? A winning record? We have enough of that now. Director of planning, can’t you guess what we need to do to get rid of him?”

“T-that……”

Yes. Killing him endlessly. It was possible to do, and it would save Rising Sun’s face, but there was no benefit.

Kyokujitsu also wanted it but suppressed his anger.

Moreover, it must have been him who wanted to tear Leeha apart the most.

“Additionally, this- no, sorry.”

Matsushige stared at Kyokujitsu for a moment.

Kyokujitsu shrugged his shoulder and continued.

“In order to recover the money we paid to Oka-san…. Ha Leeha would need to pay each month. Doesn’t he?”

There were many ways to force him. Just like the [Contract] Kyokujitsu and Oka-san signed, he could use it to coerce actions in Middle Earth.

In the event of non-payment, sanctions may be imposed by the contract.

Simply killing was something that inferior gangsters do. In that respect, Kyokujitsu’s method was similar to that of a financial company.

“Yes. You are indeed the president.”

“Oh, there’s that way.”

“It will definitely be good news if the Cloud Magician comes to us!”

The Rising Sun personnel, including the director of planning, drank the kimchi soup.

“Don’t fuck with me. Crazy bastards.” However, they did not think about the person who would give them the rice cake.

“Hey, you bastard, the president-!”

“President, let’s kill him first, then we could talk later?!”

The combatants growled and stared at Leeha but they could not act without Kyokujitsu’s orders.

Rumors have already spread that 500 people, including the Rising Sun’s head office combatants, have already been killed.

There was no way they wouldn’t want to get revenge for their allies.

“Think about it, Ha Leeha. If you don’t accept this, you will die indefinitely. Until you quit Middle Earth. Until you delete your character. Would it be worth it?”

“However, that’s not it. Why would you waste your talent? You shouldn’t hate money either. I’ll treat you like an SFM. I’ll even set up a stand-alone branch. You can take all your subordinate’s portions. This kind of preferential treatment is not given to normal branch managers. You have to be at the level of director of planning to get it.”

The director of planning widened his eyes and looked at Kyokujitsu. From the perspective of Rising Sun insiders, preferential treatment was not common.

Except for the portion to be paid to the organization, the rest were monopolized. At the same time, it was said the protection of the Rising Sun organization can be received…….

If Leeha did not win against 500 people, it would have been a privilege for existing members.

“Hahaha,… You’re saying that you will take care of people with abilities.  Are you really going to give me such a special preference?”

“Sure! It’s the age of result-oriented pay. It is natural to take care of those who perform well. If you are capable, you can get more than 100 gold by yourself within a month in Middle Earth time, especially if you properly pick your target That’s four days in reality. Within a week, in reality, you can get at least 200 gold. How about in a month? Maybe even 1000 gold.”

Kyokujitsu’s voice gradually lowered.

It was meant for Leeha, but before he knew it, even Matsushige and Mame Hana were listening to his voice.

In terms of handling people, he was the best.

“What we are doing is not honorable. But isn’t it not illegal? In Middle Earth, we risk our lives to do business, getting our own penalties. No, if you’re really struggling, how about working for our organization for a year? In a year, won’t you have more than 10,000 gold? Without any risk.”

According to the reports brought by Rising Sun they find, kill, and extort users who luckily obtained high-value items. Beginners who were below level 100 could not even dare to fight Rising Sun.

In other words, it meant that one could safely take items without risking retaliation or revenge just by putting the Rising Sun behind you.

As Kyokujitsu said, Leeha could earn money for his leg surgery in just two years.

The sweeter the words came into Leeha’s ears, the firmer the idea in his head became.

“I have become a threat to you. Enough to say things like that.”

“What?”

“Aren’t you saying that Rising Sun is on the verge of collapse? Fuck you.”

Leeha smiled and raised his middle finger.

Kyokujitsu’s face, which had a business-like smile until now to attract Leeha, distorted in an instant.

“You bastard, you dare……. You should have listened  when I was speaking nicely!”

Boom-!

When Kyokujitsu, who was filled with anger, slammed the wall hard, everyone’s eyes turned to him.

‘Now!’

At that moment, Leeha’s hand dug into the bag.

Chiii…

Negotiation? From the beginning, Leeha had no intention of doing that.

He just pretended to listen until now!

“You can’t lower your guard in such a narrow place!”

Chiii , Leeha laughed and threw bombs.

(To be continued…)

Note:
Don’t drink the kimchi soup before being offered rice cake. It’s a Korean proverb that’s equivalent to “Don’t count  the chickens before they hatch.” Meaning, don’t get ahead of yourself.

Hence, the sentence  The Rising Sun personnel, including the director of planning, drank the kimchi soup. However, they did not think about the person who would give them the rice cake.

Meaning the Rising Sun personnel was very sure that Leeha would agree with Kyokujitsu.
