Player Who Returned 10,000 Years Later - Chapter 24 - Player Who Returned 10,000 Years Later Oku

Even if it’s just the two of them, a fully staffed party would envy them.

And Kang Yu, in light of recent events related to the Andras Guild, decided it was necessary to increase his strength and influence.

‘I don’t know how strong these Devil’s Teachers are.’ To gain strength for the upcoming battle was not such a bad idea.

— Han Sol, did you get many invitations from the guilds?

— Yes, a lot, — she said in an excited tone, still in disbelief that she had received a B-grade ability.

Actually, the B-class feature wasn’t that rare.

But given that she was a support, her value was more.

— Which guild are you going to join?

— Well… — The question made her cheeks browse, and she hesitantly continued: — Actually, I don’t want to join the guild. I’d like to help you. —

— Hmm… — When Kang Yu heard her answer, he swallowed nervously. When he doubted it, he said quietly, — It’s true that you’ve gained the ability of a high class, but it’s not a good idea to walk with me yet.—

— Ahh… — Realizing that his decision was undeniable, Han Sol felt disappointed.

— I’ll tell you what, there’s nothing you can do for me now.

— I see, — the girl replied sluggishly with her head down.

When Kang Yu looked at her acting this way, he felt his heart twinge with sympathy.

‘It’s just too early.’ She can’t help him now. If she wouldn’t be a hindrance to him, it’d already be a great achievement.

It wasn’t that she was weak. Her abilities are many times better than those of ordinary Players.

‘The problem is, I’m gaining strength too quickly.’

Having risen to rank 3 and received a decent amount of Magi through the ritual, he surely overcame level 20 long ago.

Given that he had huge powers for his level, it would be inconvenient to share the much-needed experience points with teammates.

‘A little later.’ Once he reaches gate level B, where ‘elite’ monsters live, it should be fine.

That’s when he would go hunting in a party with Dae Su, Han Sol, and possibly someone else. But not now.

Right now, Han Sol and Dae Su need to gain combat experience.

‘Once you’ve entered a powerful party, you can’t get that experience.’ Of course, there’s no need to practice risking your life, but just standing next to stronger party members and getting experience points will not teach you how to fight against the monsters.

— I know a tank with the ability of class A. First, you should be in the same party as him to gain experience.

— I see…

— A little later, when you become more experienced and raise your level, we will go together to the high-level gates.

— Ah! — When she heard that she could join a party with Kang Yu, her eyes lit up immediately.

They will hunt together as soon as she gets stronger.

For her, who has both an interest in Kang Yu and a sense of loyalty to Kang Yu, such words have become her motivation.

— I see. As you said, I’ll join the tank’s party.

— Since you two have high-level abilities, you’ll improve quite quickly.

— Yes, I’d like to quickly gain experience and go with you.

— It won’t take long. I’ll provide the necessary help, — Kang Yu planned to personally go out hunting with Dae Su and Han Sol after a while to help them get promoted.

If Kang Yu, who already has the strength of a high-class player, helps them, they will be promoted many times faster than other players.

‘It’s an investment in the future.’ In Hell’s Nine Thousandth Circle when he accepted Pallock as a servant, he had realized something.

If you do what you’re used to doing as a couple or a three-person group, you won’t have to wait as long for the result.

Of course, ‘realized’ may seem too much as it should be an obvious fact, but for Kang Yu who is used to doing things alone, it had been a real shock.

‘Before Pallock, I thought that a servant would be a burden.’ He simply hadn’t had the opportunity to understand that a person with special skills could be very useful.

— Haha, thank you, Kang Yu. Time passed so quickly during the conversation. Wait a bit for me to finish cooking.

— Okay.

While thinking about when to start helping Dae Su and Han Sol, he went into the living room and sat down waiting for dinner.

— Uwah! — When he saw the kimchi jjigae, he noisily sucked in the air and approached the girl.

Probably because of the expensive kimchi jjigae meat, this time he was very attracted to the shiny broth.

— Looks delicious!

— Ah, wait a minute, Kang Yu. — The girl stopped Kang Yu, who was ready to attack the dish like a predator.

He became upset, looking sadly at the tantalizing kimchi jjigae that she wouldn’t let him eat and then at Han Sol.

She thought it was quite funny to see him like that and giggled.

— Today, we’ll add this to the kimchi jjigae.’ She dipped the cooked food into the broth.

His pupils dilated and his body shuddered.

— That’s… — Kang Yu panicked as if he had seen something incredible.
