254

Having finished all the itinerary in England, the remaining time was completely free time.

“I wanted to clear my head and go sightseeing.”

After going through that kind of thing at the hotel, I didn’t even think about enjoying my leisure time.

“I’ll have to go back and see what happens to Philip Anos.”

It’s not that I don’t believe in the president of the association, but I wanted to see with my own eyes what kind of ending he would face with such an insult to Seong-hyeon.

“No matter what the ending is, it won’t hurt.”

Anything would be better than dying.

And severing business with the Association would bring about the downfall of Philip Anos, but it did not bring destruction, so if you were satisfied with the situation, you would have a chance to rise again.

“Now is…”

What I haven’t checked yet.

It is the combination of equipment and abilities newly created by DeMargue.

Until now, new abilities were created and combined, but it was the first time that equipment and abilities were combined, so Sung-hyun checked the spear with a little excitement.

[Combination is complete. Do you want to check the results?]

“show me.”

[Ability combined with equipment is Holy Land.]

[The effect of the Holy Land ability is greatly increased.]

[The limit of Holy Land ability has been reached.]

“Limit? Does this mean that your proficiency has increased?”

To see them as the same word, the meanings of the words proficiency and limit were completely different.

If the normal limit was reached, in most cases it also meant that this ability could no longer be developed.

However, the titles of sages and pioneers that Seong-hyeon received after returning for the first time.

Therefore, for Seong-hyeon, saying that the limit has been reached is just the same as saying that it has become a little more difficult to move on to the next level.

“If the Holy Land has reached its limit, does it mean that the range of the ability to ascend to the Holy Land has increased?”

Looking at it now, it seemed that the range was slightly wider.

At first, I thought that the range would not get wider because it was affected by magic, but as I reached the limit, it seemed that the effects of magic got bigger.

The greater the influence of magical power, the higher the stat rise of the Holy Land.

“I’ll have to check it out later.”

Even when I checked it before, the Holy Land showed a significant difference.

Maybe it will show a bigger difference now.

[It is possible to reunite the Holy Land that has reached the limit and other abilities.]

“How long has it been since you’ve grown in your abilities, right?”

If I say this, can I be more happy than this?

Whenever abilities are reunited, the result is always the best.

The abilities of the abilities they had before they were combined were natural, and the reunion was made in such a way that they compensated for their shortcomings or emphasized their strengths more.

[The recombination of more than two abilities requires a huge amount of magical power.]

[Measures the time required for reunion based on the user’s magic power.]

[Time required for reunion. 8 hours]

[Eight hours are required if you forcefully lose consciousness that is not lost by will.]

The time required for DeMargue’s equipment to reach the limit of the Holy Land was 1 hour.

Until then, it didn’t take time for the abilities to recombine, but it seemed that more magic and time were probably needed to create a higher value ability.

“It used to be an hour for equipment to combine with abilities, now it’s eight hours?”

It took eight hours to force him to lose consciousness, which he did not lose due to his will.

It means that the ability is of great value.

How valuable is it that it takes a long time of 8 hours to lose consciousness by force?

“It’s not a dangerous time, though.”

It wasn’t a long time to think that I had slept soundly.

Naturally, it seemed like it would be good to blow the ceremony together at the same time that other people sleep.

“for a moment. I don’t lose consciousness, how was such a sword possible?”

In an instant, many questions came to mind.

He didn’t lose consciousness, so why did the sword that was close to the unconscious go out then?

“Is this only included if I don’t want it?”

However, it was a question that could not be resolved, and since it was a question that did not need to be solved, Seong-Hyeon passed on it insignificantly.

“I wish it was good, because it’s not bad.”

Not all questions had to be resolved, so Seong-hyun erased all the related things from his head and waited for the night to come.

While I was waiting, I got a call from the president of the association.

That he had cut off all ties with Philip Anos.

Was it a relationship that was easy to break in the first place that was accomplished in less than a day, or was it a lot of effort?

it didn’t matter

If it was easy to quit, it would be beneficial to the president of the association, and even if it was difficult to quit, he would not pay the mark, so Seong-hyeon would have done a hard job for himself, so this was also a benefit.

“I’m going to send you a report too.”

Originally, I was planning to hold the ceremony for 8 hours tonight for the reunion of my abilities, but it seemed like it had to be postponed until tomorrow.

I was quite curious about what the president of the association handled and what the result was.

The report was received shortly after being contacted by the president of the association.

Report arrived with room service through hotel staff.

“I’m curious about your reaction as well.”

From the first sentence of the report, Seong-hyeon was quite satisfied.

[Philip Anos’ performance and equipment supply contract with the association]

The content of the report was quite detailed.

Maybe it was just a little bit of the result from the transaction with Seong-hyeon on top of the documents I had prepared in advance for check-in.

“The only son of Philip Annos, who fails to grow and maintains the status quo…every time it is quiet, it is a gossip.”

It also details the atrocities committed by the only heir of Philip Anos so far.

Even public opinion is not good.

In addition, although it was not revealed that Seonghyun was also working at this hotel, a transcript of what was said was also released.

“Have you made up your mind?”

It means that the catalyst of Seong-hyeon has been added to the work originally planned.

I wondered how the president of the association could finish the job so quickly, but it seemed to be something he had been waiting for all this time.

From the point of view of the association president, it was possible to relieve Seong-hyeon’s heart, and at the same time, it was no different from removing a sick tooth, so it was a welcome event with open arms.

The next equipment supply contract between the association and Philip Annos.

This is an area that Seong-hyeon doesn’t know well anyway, so I skipped over it and identified the most important issue.

“Termination of contract with Philip Anos.”

It was something I liked quite a bit too.

It was a case in which the contract was canceled due to an external problem rather than a mutual problem, and for that reason, Philip Anos had to pay the penalty to the association.

There was also a clause that the amount of the penalty would be partially replaced by supplying equipment according to mutual agreement, but the president of the association did not receive the offer at all.

In the end, the huge amount of penalty had to be paid in cash without any exception.

“It’s a good result.”

There was no reason to kill them, and I had no intention of doing so.

Because I didn’t like to pressure people who didn’t have much power.

However, they crossed the line and only took the price of crossing the line.

“Is this the end of Philip Anos’s job?”

In addition to this, there were several more sheets of paper, a letter from the president of the association expressing his thanks.

“You are more emotional than I thought.”

Seonghyeon, who burst out laughing lightly, read all the letters and took them.

———————–

“Who was that Asian…who was that?”

“This is Kim Seong-hyun.”

The chief of Philip Anos was barely quelling his boiling rage.

If he had only one son, or even one more daughter, there would have been no reason to adopt this stupid and poor son as his successor.

“therefore. What are we going to do?”

“If we get rid of that Kim Seong-hyun, won’t the association join hands again? father! In times like these, bold decisions are needed.”

His son’s every word was not bold, but rather ignorant beyond recklessness, so the chief’s sigh only increased.

“Egypt’s top hunter, Kim Seong-hyun, took care of it without even having time to use it. Even if we put all of our guild members in, I’m not sure.”

Logically speaking to his son in a way he can understand, but he took it as saying that he could not proceed because he was not sure, and he expressed his opinion as if there was a good way.

“Isn’t Kim Seong-hyun staying at the hotel? And no matter how good a hunter is, he can’t help but sleep. Isn’t that an opportunity?”

“There are rumors in the world that Kim Seong-hyun doesn’t even sleep.”

“Rumors are just rumors. father. I think you’re too scared right now.”

“Whoa…”

Was he really overly frightened, as he said?

The thought that I was not sure even if I put in all the guild members was probably based on fear.

“Wouldn’t it be possible if you were the guild leader of the Philip Guild?”

“…if the guild leader…”

Although he did not have the ability to specialize in assassination, he was a famous hunter who knew his opponents and devised the right tactics according to that information.

He had little experience in assassination, but looking back on the footsteps he had made so far, it would not be much different from the assassin.

Moreover, the hotel had a close relationship with Philip Arnos.

They also have the design of the building, so it must be great information for the guild leader.

‘Maybe this…’

Although his son’s words are reckless and ignorant, it was certain that the contract would come back if Kim Seong-hyun disappeared.

‘If not us, where will we get the equipment?’

Even if the equipment was supplied, it would probably come from a place related to Kim Seong-hyun, so if Kim Seong-hyun disappeared, it would come back naturally.

‘okay. If the contract with the association is cut anyway, we will die too.’

It wasn’t the end of the contract.

In the meantime, you will receive back the influence you had exerted on the same industry around you through the contract with the association.

“When are you going back?”

The son, who knew well that his father’s answer was the one he had decided on, answered with a smile.

“Tomorrow.”

“…you’ll be back soon. Get it ready right now.”

“Yes!”

It doesn’t matter if you die like this or die that way.

If there is a hole that will protrude even a little, you have no choice but to dig it.

How long does it take to proceed with a job that is supported by your father?

There were only conflicts in the meantime, but for the first time, it seemed like they got along well.

‘Somehow it succeeds.’

If I had only humiliated myself, I wouldn’t have done it this far.

‘It’s all your fault.’

How much more was stolen later than what was originally stolen.

And the successor of Philip Anos was someone who could do this more than anyone else.

“The elixir you make… it will become an exclusive product of Philip Anos in the future.”

That way, my father would recognize him as well.

From the heir everyone ignores to the one with undeniable abilities.

At the perfect opportunity after a long absence, the successor unwittingly started preparing with a smile on his face.
