Chapter 58

Top-

Ttogak-

Cha Ji-yoon now walked into an upscale bar in Cheongdam-dong.

There were about 5 young men and women inside.

Just looking at the clothes they wore and the accessories they wore, they were luxury goods worth at least tens of millions of won.

They looked at Cha Ji-yoon.

“Oh! Jiyoon! Here it is.”

They saw Cha Ji-yoon and shook his hand.

“…”

Cha Ji-yoon bowed his head towards them and moved towards them.

“Oh. Congratulations Jiyun. You said you were in charge of a ‘bio’ company this time?”

“…Yes.”

“Yeah. Great? At the age of 17? Come and sit down.”

They were ‘First Class’, a club Cha Ji-yoon had been a member of since childhood.

First Class was a club that only the children of Korea’s upper class could join.

The members are all made up of the children of large corporations that you know just by hearing their names.

“Jiyoon. Take this one.”

The man in front handed Cha Ji-yoon a drink.

“…Ah. I am okay.”

From noble mtl dot com

“A. Don’t do that take a drink.”

“…I’m sorry I’m still underage.”

“Ji-yoon is so naive in a strange place?”

“…Rather than that, are we the only ones in this bar?”

Cha Ji-yoon looked around.

Aside from the club members, there were only bartenders inside this large bar.

“Uh. Can’t we have a drink and talk in the same space as the common people?”

“….”

“Those humble things and us are different species.”

The man grinned and said.

“Hey. Bartender.”

The man flicked his fingers.

“Yes! Did you call?”

“Would you like to come here?”

“Yes? What is that all of a sudden?”

“Stop talking and come quickly.”

The bartender soon stood in front of the man.

“Get down and bark like a dog.”

“…Yes?”

“Get down and bark like a dog. Do I have to say it twice?”

“We do not accept such orders from our customers.”

“…..”

In an instant, the man’s expression began to harden.

Kwaang-

He hit the desk hard in his seat.

He immediately stood up and started glaring at the bartender.

“Did I make it clear? Get down and bark like a dog.”

He took out his wallet from his chest.

Then he picked up a bundle of 50,000 won bills and smacked him in the face.

“If you get down and bark like a dog, I’ll give you this. How is it? Are you ready to do it now?”

“…”

“You common people are crazy about money like dogs. Uh?”

As he said that, he kept banging the bartender in the face with a bundle of 50,000 won bills.

“…Sorry. I can’t do that.”

The bartender said.

“…What? How dare you disregard my words, a commoner bastard?”

With that said, he raised his hand.

Pair-

Then he swung that hand hard against the bartender’s cheek.

The bartender’s cheeks began to turn red in an instant.

“…Next, give me a chance. If I don’t do it this time, it won’t be much fun.”

The bartender’s face flushed red.

At the same time, his clenched fists began to tremble.

“Oh. What? To hit? Oh. Ok look at me But, do you have the money to pay for the settlement? If you hit me once, you will have to ask for at least a billion units. Try it if you have the money.”

He grabbed his bartender by the fist and brought it to his face.

“Try it. Sick.”

However, the bartender only had his hands shaking.

“Ugh. Can’t you hit? So that’s how you live your whole life. Sick.”

“…”

“But, you know what? I can hit you Why? Just give me money and everything will be solved.”

With that said, he began to swing his fist at the bartender.

Just before the fist closes on the bartender.

Wam-

Someone grabbed his wrist.

He looked at her with her searing eyes.

She was Cha Ji-yoon.

“Jiyoon. Will you let go of this?”

He glared at Cha Ji-yoon with her burning eyes.

“…At this point. It doesn’t look particularly good.”

“….Are you really arrogant these days?”

The man looked at Cha Ji-yoon and said.

“You’ve only managed to raise the ‘Oriental’ guild successfully.

“..Not really. It was just uncomfortable to watch.”

“…What? Uncomfortable?”

“..Yes.”

“…What are you?”

He glared at Cha Ji-yoon without a word.

Everyone around him stopped him.

“Hey. Why are you guys stop.”

“Yes. We should get along well with each other. Why are you doing that?”

“Yes. I guess I was too excited.”

He retracted his fist at the bartender.

Then he slumped down in his seat.

“By the way, Jiyoon.”

“..Yes.”

“I heard you are in charge of the ‘Bio’ company this time?”

“Yes. You’re right.”

“Yeah. That’s great. Jiyoon. At the age of 17, I already have the position of CEO of ‘Bio’.”

He continued with a sarcastic tone.

“Maybe the president gave you a chance because you managed the ‘Oriental’ guild successfully?”

“…”

“Originally, the chairman of the ‘Samhwa’ group always gave your brother the position of president of an affiliate of the ‘Samhwa’ group. But the fact that he gave it to you means he expects a little from you too. “

“…”

“..But how do I do this? This time, ‘Samhwa’ Bio, where you sat for the first time as the president of an affiliate of the ‘Samhwa’ group, will fail miserably.”

“..Why do you think so?”

Cha Ji-yoon glared at him and said.

“Oh? That? What’s normal You’re only 17 years old, and you don’t have any bio knowledge. But how can the company go back just because he suddenly became the president?”

“….”

“Jiyoon. Do you know who this brother is?”

He took out a business card from his chest and held it up.

[‘Lee Min-gi’, CEO of ‘Servant’ Bio]

“…”

Cha Ji-yoon looked at the business card without saying anything.

“Yes. This oppa is the CEO of ‘Servant’ Bio, who is currently ranked #1 in Korea with ‘Bio’.”

Lee Min-ki smiled and continued his words.

“This older brother is very knowledgeable about the bio market, so I’m telling him specifically, but give up now.”

“…Give up?”

“Yes. You know that our company is already holding onto the ‘bio’ market, right? No matter how good your ‘Samhwa’ Bio is, there’s no way they can be our opponents.”

“…”

“So, it would be better to nurture the existing affiliates well. As a latecomer, there is absolutely no way that ‘Samhwa’ Bio will do well.”

“…”

“It’s better to get your hands off of it now. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing for you too if you accidentally touched it and got the nickname ‘minus hand’?”

He said sarcastically.

“…Isn’t that something you have to try to know?”

Jiyoon Cha said.

“…What?”

The man made a puzzled expression.

“..Of course, it is true that our group is a latecomer to the ‘bio’ industry. I know that ‘Hain’ Bio, which she runs, is the number one in the industry.”

“You’re still going to come in?”

“..Yes. After all, isn’t it long and short to know after talking about it?”

“Ha ha ha-“

The man burst into laughter.

For a while, his laughter echoed through the bar.

“Ah- sorry. Sorry. It’s the funniest gag I’ve heard in a long time. Did i laugh too much sorry.”

“After…”

Cha Ji-yoon sighed softly.

“Well, Ji-yoon, you don’t have a choice.”

“…”

“I have to successfully develop the bio company that I am in charge of this time to compete with your brother for the position of ‘Samhwa’ group chairman.

Lee Min-ki clicked his tongue and continued his words.

“Other conglomerates also heard that ‘Bio’ is profitable, so they all started ‘Bio’? But all of them are ruined Why?”

Lee Min-gi stood up from his seat and continued his words by circling around Cha Ji-yoon.

“It’s because our company’s ‘bio’ technology is too overwhelming.”

“…”

“Perhaps if you search the records, you will find them all? If you look at how other conglomerates tried ‘bio’ and then all went bankrupt.”

“…”

“Wise people learn from the past, right? Stupid people have to experience it to know.”

“…”

“Well, if you are someone who can recognize it only after experiencing it, there is nothing you can do about it. I’m so sorry.”

“…Right now, our new drug will be released in a month.”

Cha Ji-yoon looked at him and said.

“Yes. However?”

“…I really wonder if you’ll be able to say that back then.”

“Keuk kuk. Yes i’m looking forward to it I don’t know how great the drug is.”

“…Then I’ll get up now.”

Jiyoon Cha stood up from her seat with a frown on her face.

****

Ttarleung-

Ttarleung-

“Ugh.”

I turned off the ringing alarm clock.

[AM7:00]

Looking at the clock, it’s already time to wash up and go to school.

Before washing, there is something you need to do first.

[‘Message’ – Student ‘Nam Do-yoon’ will take the exam from teacher ‘Son In-hyeok’ in the midterm practical test.

You can come by 9:00 in front of the dungeon at the back of the school.]

“As expected.”

As I expected, Son In-hyeok made me take his practical exam.

Perhaps it’s because you were openly embarrassed by me before.

Shoot ah-

I went into the shower and warmed myself up in the warm water.

It seems that my mind, which was a bit hazy, is coming back.

After roughly packing my things, I came out of the dormitory.

When we went to the front of the dungeon, there were already many students gathered.

[AM 9:00]

There, one student stood out.

A male student with red hair stood out.

“…”

I looked at him in silence.

His name is ‘Kane’

All the eyes of the students here were focused on him.

That’s right, he was the only student in this place not wearing the ‘Elpon’ academy uniform.

“Have you seen him at school?”

“No. Have you never seen one? Is he a kid from our school?”

“Aren’t you a senior?”

“A. How could I not recognize the senior’s face?”

All the students looked at him with puzzled expressions.

“Hey. Rather than that, the teacher is coming over there.”

“Oh. That’s right.”

[AM 9:10]

I saw ‘Son In-hyeok’ walking from far away.

Even though he was 10 minutes late, his steps were full of room.

He soon stood in front of the students.

“Everyone is gathered. Shall we begin with a brief explanation of today’s test?”

With that said, he looked over the students.

And when he saw me there, he grinned.

Perhaps they prepared a test that was extremely unfavorable to me.

From noble mtl dot com

“Can you guys wear this eyepatch?”

“..Yes?”

The students made a puzzled expression.

Suddenly wearing an eyepatch?

“If you put on an eyepatch, the guides will take you inside the dungeon.”

“Teacher, I have a question for you.”

A student raised her hand and said.

“Yes. Why?”

“You don’t have to wear an eyepatch, do you?”

“No. I really need it. Because you don’t have to know the terrain inside the dungeon.”

“You don’t have to know the terrain?”

“Because you don’t have to know where you are in the dungeon.”

“Why?”

“Because the test begins the moment you take off your blindfold.”

“Yes?”

“From the moment you take off the blindfold, I will give you points based on the number of times you find the door that leads out of the dungeon.”

The summary of his words was as follows.

Students will move into the dungeon with their blindfolds on.

And when they arrive at a certain point, the students take off their blindfolds.

From that moment on, the students looked for the door leading out of the dungeon, and ranked in the order they came out.

“Oh yes, take one pouch.”

Son In-hyeok handed out small pockets to the students one by one.

“Inside this dungeon, only the items contained in this pouch can be used. Except for the student weapon, of course.”

“Is it just this little pouch?”

“Yes. Because it is important to evaluate each student’s ability. The use of external items should be minimized.”

I grinned.

I knew that too.

I put the medicine I brought into the little pouch.

“Come on. Then, would you all wear eye patches?”

Students began wearing eye patches one by one.

I also wore an eyepatch.

The guide took me and started moving into the dungeon.

Did he walk that long?

“You can remove the eyepatch now.”

I heard the guide’s voice.

I took off my eyepatch.

Then the appearance of the dungeon unfolded.

“Oh, yes. And I have something to tell you.”

The guide said.

“What is it?”

“This is the 7th basement floor. It’s the rule to let them know that much.”

“Ah. Thank you.”

“And there is something I must check”

“What is it?”

“Could you open the bag you just received? I don’t want it to contain anything dangerous.”

I opened the bag.

In it were the medicines I had brought with me.

Seeing that, the guide put on an interesting expression.

“Ohhh. You brought this. Did you know what trap was set inside it?”

“No. It can’t be.”

“Well, that’s none of my business. I’ll leave.”

The receptionist bowed her head and went outside.

I looked around.

It was written on the wall that it was on the 7th basement level.

‘It’s on the 7th basement level.’

The 7th floor is the lowest floor of this dungeon.

At the same time, the difficulty level was the most difficult.

With a vicious level of difficulty that can never be passed.

I think they sent me down to the 7th floor to get me into trouble.

I don’t care anyway.

Because I know all the paths in this dungeon.
