Producer Who Gets Eaten After 100 Days

Chapter 19

Persuasion (4)

In the car heading to Seoul.

Slowly slowing down to match the car in front, I glanced at Jinseowon sitting next to me.

“… … .”

She had been holding the bankbook tightly since before and was looking at the details carefully.

The bankbook, which was all about 1.5 million won, suddenly had 100 million stamped on it, so it was good enough.

‘It seems that Grandma loved it quite a bit.’

It is said that the bankbook she is holding was made by her grandmother herself for her granddaughter while she was still alive.

According to Yoon In-kyung, the female president of the cafe, he collected living expenses one by one and delivered it to her until just before he died.

Although Jinseowon did not show it outwardly, it seemed that she had a deep affection for her grandmother.

‘I’m sorry.’

I thought it was natural for Jinseowon to become a heavenly demon.

He lost both his parents at a time when he couldn’t live in the midst of love and interest, and he lived alone with his grandmother.

Even his original family was not well-to-do, so he grew up in a poor environment, and his grandmother, the only family member, died as soon as he became an adult.

Fortunately, there was Yoon In-kyung, who took care of me like my real sister, so I had a place to rely on, even if it was small… .

Even Yoon In-kyung was lost in a sudden accident, so it was strange not to hate the world.

‘This is the level that the world is forcing.’

Of course, it is unlikely that Seo-Won Jin would become a psychopath who calmly tears people through this opportunity.

There must have been a background setting that only the author knew.

However, it was certain that Yoon In-kyung’s death was an opportunity to awaken as a heavenly demon.

‘I have to stop it somehow… .’

I changed lanes and speeded up again, and as I sprinted down the open road, I thought about the second event that was about to happen.

The second incident takes place nationwide about three weeks later.

The biggest gate will open in Seoul, and gates will open in Chuncheon and other cities… .

The problem is that we do not know the location of the gates that are opened in cities other than Seoul.

‘Damn you, you bastard… .’

I scolded the author of ‘Strongest Master’, who skipped the description, and pondered over how to do it.

First of all, you cannot use the method using the instrument like before.

If you use it blindly, it may delay the response when you really need it.

‘Should I bring another S-class hunter?’

The reason the gates do a lot of damage in the first place is because they couldn’t subdue the gates quickly.

The gate that opens in Chuncheon is not as big as Seoul and the level is low, so maybe only a high-level hunter can handle it quickly.

Unless there are unexpected variables.

‘The Demon King should come out the same, please… .’

The demon kings of another world appearing in the original novel are described as close to what is commonly referred to as a ‘cliché’.

They invaded because they wanted to conquer another dimension, and sent troops step by step asking how strong humans would be if they were strong… .

Of course, as the situation has changed from the original novel, the possibility of suddenly showing a different trend cannot be overlooked.

Judging from the original novel at the present time, it is around the time when Seol Joo-hee, who achieved D-class, is in the midst of training.

However, unlike the original, she has already reached the Ex level, and the first plan of the Demon King’s army has not been successful.

I can’t guarantee that things will go exactly the way I predicted.

‘Just do what you did… .’

As I ran while praying to the demon king inside, I finally arrived at Seoul City Hall.

“hello. This is Gyuri Han, who is in charge of the administration of the team Seoul City Hall.”

“Nice to meet you. This is Kim Junhyung, who is in charge of the team.”

Jinseowon shook her head and accepted the greetings from the two people who greeted them.

“This is Jinseowon.”

Both of them didn’t say anything special thanks to the brief hints of this and that.

After quickly completing the contract and team member registration, I left Jin Seo-won to Han Gyu-ri and chatted with Kim Jun-hyung for a while.

“Is this right?”

“what.”

Kim Junhyung glanced at Jinseowon through the transparent window and spoke with a worried expression.

“Hey, didn’t you bring him here with the intention of recruiting him?”

“right.”

“… Can you recruit me?”

“I brought it because I could do it. Can’t you believe me?”

“I believe… . I believe! No, don’t you have to pretend to be training with rude words?!”

He was concerned that Jin Seo-won would lag behind the other two team members.

Currently, Jinseowon is an F-class.

He is two ranks different from other D-class team members.

No matter how low-level they are, the D rank, who knows how to handle magic, and the F rank, which can only feel magic, belong to a completely different dimension.

“It’s the kid you brought, so of course he has talent! But I don’t know if it’s okay to leave it alone for a month.”

Even if you train as quickly as possible and match teamwork, it is not enough, but since you can start training after a month, I am worried inside.

Having fully understood his feelings, I slowly nodded my head as a sign of understanding.

“Everyone has an idea, so don’t worry. just… , When the time comes, just react properly as much as you can.”

“… reaction?”

After the conversation with Kim Junhyung was over.

While Gyu-ri Han and Jun-hyung Kim left for the training ground after finishing their chores… .

I, who remained in the office with Jin Seo-won, asked Jin Seo-won a brief impression.

“How is the office? Are you okay?”

“… yes.”

“As I said before, there are only three staff members including me. Oh, Junhyung is my high school classmate. He has a good personality and is a good friend, so if you need anything, feel free to talk to us at any time.”

“… yes.”

“Gyuri is a good person too. You have a deep love for the team. If Junhyung or I are uncomfortable, it’s okay to talk to Gyuri-san.”

Seo-won Jin showed a faint reaction by nodding his head as if he had no interest in it, and after sneakily appealing to the team, I looked around the office and opened my mouth for nothing, pretending I had nothing to say.

“Well… . I came all the way to Seoul, is there anything you want to do?”

OK.

“… no.”

Seo-won Jin came out with an answer like a knife, as if he had no idea.

Raising the corners of my mouth slightly at the expected answer, I offered one suggestion as if waiting.

“then… . Would you like to watch our team training?”

“… ?”

For a moment, with a puzzled expression on her face, she gently pulls her body back.

It was as if he had sensed my intention to sneak into the team.

‘It feels good.’

“That’s what Inkyung said. Have dinner and see me. It’s lunchtime now, isn’t it a bit like sitting here until dinner?”

“… that… .”

“Or, is there anything else you would like to do?”

Seo-Won Jin did not respond as readily as I expected.

You probably didn’t know what to do with your time.

“actually… . I also have work to do at the training ground. Originally, I had to watch the training of the team members myself… , I couldn’t see you because I was away for a week. I don’t know if I’m doing well… .”

I secretly looked at Jinseowon and induced her to answer.

It was a slightly rude way to deal with her lack of social skills, but… .

That’s how desperate I was.

“… Seowon Mr. If it’s okay with you, can I go with you? There are a lot of famous teams there, so it will probably be a good experience.”

“… … .”

Jin Seo-won looked at me, pursed her lips as if she had something to say.

and… .

“… I see.”

In the end, my request was granted.

“Producer! Are you coming back now!?”

“I haven’t seen you in a long time. Producer!”

“It’s been a while, both of you. Did nothing happen while I was away?”

“yes! I trained hard!”

When we arrived at the training ground, we met Bang Han-na and Kim Na-rae, who were resting, and exchanged greetings.

“This is our new team member ‘candidate’ Jin Seo-won. I’m here today to observe, so please take care of me.”

“Candidate… ?”

“ah… !”

I did not explain the details to the two of them, but fortunately, they showed a reaction that seemed to understand the situation.

“hello! It’s Hanna Bang! Please!”

“This is Kim Na-rae. Please.”

“… This is Jinseowon.”

Let me introduce Jinseowon to the two of you secretly.

“Guys! Let’s start training!”

At the same time, Gyuri Han announced the resumption of training.

“Oh, I’ll go first! Have a good time!”

“Well then, see you later.”

“I’ll see you right away, so you guys are working hard.”

“yes… !”

I entrusted Jinseowon to Han Gyu-ri and Kim Jun-hyung, and decided to look after Bang Han-na and Kim Na-rae’s training as predicted.

“Go… !”

The first place I stopped by was Narae Kim’s booth.

When she gave the order, the fire spirit fired a ball of fire at the dummy robot.

Whoo! Paang-!

The power wasn’t great, but the fireworks were definitely exploding.

Unlike last week, when it collapsed helplessly, the magic power was well gathered inside the flame.

‘You’re doing great.’

I nodded slowly at the sight of Narae Kim, who made a meaningful achievement, and gave instructions into the microphone leading into the booth.

“It’s me. Let’s put some more horsepower this time. It’s okay to be smaller, so just focus on the destructive power.”

“yes!”

I left feedback while watching Na-rae Kim’s training, and then I stopped by Han-na Bang’s booth.

woo woo woo—!! Koo-Woong—–!!!

Hanna Bang was always dealing with a training robot of a higher level than herself.

Kuwoong—!! Koo-Woong—!!

The robot attacked Hanna Bang with various patterns, and she received all the attacks without much crowd.

‘You’re doing great.’

The center of gravity is well established, the feedback left before is properly received, and the shock absorption rate is quite high.

It seemed that we could move on to the next step slowly.

“Hannah. Let’s move forward little by little and block it.”

I instructed Bang Han-na in a new way.

Instead of standing still and defending, it was a way of defending by moving from place to place.

“Yep… !”

Hanna Bang immediately followed the instructions and slowly moved to receive the robot’s attack,

Koo–! Kuwoong–!!

It was difficult to keep the center of gravity in the continuous attack, so it started to shake little by little.

“み… !”

“You are doing great! Give your body more strength! Concentrate on letting the attack flow!”

“Nee… !”

I watched the training until Hanna got used to it.

It was slow, but one step at a time until I was able to take a steady step.

After giving feedback like that, I approached Jinseowon, who was quietly observing while sitting on the bench.

“Is it worth a look?”

Jinseowon nodded her head with her eyes twinkling strangely.

Apparently, watching the training was fun.

“That’s fortunate.”

I secretly took a seat next to Jinseowon, pretended to be looking at the booth, glanced at her, and talked to her.

“Aren’t you bored?”

“… it’s okay.”

“Then, would you like to train?”

“… ?”

Jin Seo-won looked at me as if feeling something strange, and slowly spread the distance.

With a smile on her face involuntarily, I shoved the items I had prepared in advance to her.

“Would you like to try this?”

It was a necklace with an S-class magic stone.

“This is also a kind of training, and it’s a training that puts magic into it and reveals it like this. If you look over there, do you see that shiny thing on the neck of the wing? It’s like this.”

“… … .”

Jinseowon glanced at the sparkling magic stone in my hand.

And then… .

“… !”

As if belatedly realizing that something was strange, he suddenly turned his head and began to spread the distance again.

‘cute.’

I raised the corners of my lips slightly at the child-like figure acting as if they were not interested, then forcibly gave me a magic stone and said:

“This isn’t just what hunters do, it’s what all talented people do.”

“… Are you talented?”

“It really is. Maybe Seowon’s parents did it too?”

Jinseowon glanced at the magic stone in her hand, and I secretly suggested that she only reveal it once.

“… … .”

Jin Seo-won, who had been in trouble for a while, frowned as if squeezing magical power and began to grip the magic stone tightly… .

Naturally, he couldn’t reveal the magic stone.

“Are you okay?”

I pretended not to know anything and grabbed her hand.

OK.

Shake-!

She opened her eyes wide as if in shock and met their gazes,

“You can do the same. okay?”

Ignoring her gaze, I slowly poured magical energy into her clenched fist.

aah–

A beam of light spewed out from his fists clenched.

Jinseowon, who was trembling, carefully opened her fists and began to look at the magic stone.

It was like a child seeing magic for the first time.

“Come on, this is how you do it.”

I immediately removed my hand and gave her another chance.

“… … .”

Jin Seo-won glanced at me as if he had forgotten that he was being trained, and soon began to make a slight impression by staring at the magic stone placed on the palm of his hand.

And after a while.

Hwaah—

The magic stone in response to the magic began to emit intense light.

“Seo, Seo-won! You did it!”

“… ?”

Jinseowon looked at the magic stone and me alternately, puzzled as if she did not know if she could really do it.

“what is this! Oh my gosh… . Did you do this all at once!?”

Kim Jun-hyung, who had just approached him, showed an awkward performance and started pouring praises together.

“Great! Seowon-san, you may have talent!”

“Hey… . A real genius, a genius!”

“… uh, uh… .”

Jin Seo-won turned off the light of the magic stone as if embarrassed by the sudden situation… .

“How did such a talented person get an F rank? Isn’t there a problem with the measuring station?”

“That’s right! The measuring station was the problem!”

Junhyung Kim and I continued to compliment each other. Seo-won Jin was shy, but with a slightly recalled face, she expressed her gratitude in a low voice.

“… Go, thank you… .”

It was as planned.

‘I can’t… !’

Bang Han-na, who stopped training on the way, left the booth to ask for a confusing part and went out to find Do Ji-hyuk.

‘If you have any questions, you can ask me anytime… . Are you okay?’

She didn’t realize it, but in fact, the reason I wanted to talk a little more with Do Ji-hyuk, whom I haven’t seen in a long time, was much greater.

“Ah, Producer… !”

The moment Hanna Bang found Do Ji-hyuk and approached him.

aah—

A bright light began to radiate from the hand of Jin Seo-won, who was sitting next to Ji-hyuk Do.

‘… That’s… !’

It was the light of magic stone.
