Chapter 33
— As expected of an expensive car. It doesn’t just go, it floats.
— Should I find one for you too? — Young-ju was so casual asking this, as if she was going to order a cup of coffee from the coffee shop.
Of course, Kang Yu’s eyes were shining.
— Really?
— It’s part of our agreement.
— Noona…
(P.P.: Noona — a guy’s address to a girl older than him. Closer, friendlier and cuter.)
— What?
— I’ll call you Young-ju-noona.
When she heard that statement, the girl’s face turned to one of disgust, and her expression looked as if she’d chewed and swallowed a bug by mistake.
That was the second time in the last half an hour that he’d made her look so disgusted.
— I would just appreciate it if you buy a car like that. — Kang Yu wasn’t obligated to receive such a fancy car, but he didn’t see any reason to give up the gift.
— But if you refuse my request, I’ll take it back right away.
— So you’re actually a stingy person.
— There are too many hungry mouths in my entourage.
Kang Yu grinned at her evasive answer.
— This is our office.
— It’s huge…
She stopped the car in front of the building with over 20 stories.
It looked brand new, decorated with an elegant rose.
‘So this is the power of a large guild.’ A large guild was on the same level as a large corporation.
Kang Yu thought it was a good idea to make connections with people like that, so he followed Young-ju inside the building.
As soon as they went inside, a guy with glasses and a black cape came up to them.
Directing his gaze from Young-ju to Kang Yu, he said:
— Our guild leader has told us about you. It’s nice to meet you. I’m Park Hyun Woo, the head of Red Rose’s Human Resources department. And this is Moon Yeon Ho, the task force chief.
— Oh Kang Yu.
Unlike the respectful Park Hyun Woo, Moon Yeon Ho looked closely at Kang Yu from head to toe.
— I suppose your conversation with the head was a success, since you’re here.
— With those conditions, who would dare to refuse? Especially considering you guys are the Red Rose… refusing would be the same as swallowing poison to die.
— Ha-ha-ha, we aren’t that vicious. — Hyun Woo smiled a little and turned to Yeon Ho.
— Can we go straight to the warehouse with equipment?
— I’ll take him myself, Hyun Woo. You’ve got a lot to do.
— Thank you.
— Then I’ll go with you, — said Moon Yeon Ho, still looking analytically at Kang Yu.
— What for?
— I want to get to know this person better, to see his abilities.
— Hmm… Well, okay. It’s better to get to know this person now that we’ll have to work together. Come on, let’s go.
She headed towards the elevator, waving her hand to gesture for the guys to follow her.
The elevator with Young-ju, Kang Yu and Yeon Ho stopped at the 15th floor.
— This is our inventory warehouse.
Each of the items were stored in a separate, crystal clear case.
— Ho-ho!
— You can choose something from here. If you decide to take high-class uniforms, you’ll have to pay a deposit. — She pointed out to the side where ten sets were lying.
It was clear with a glance that the quality of high-class uniforms was much better than normal ones.
Kang Yu looked around.
— What’s the cost for a high-class outfit?
— 50 million won per piece. It’s quite cheap.
Kang Yu didn’t say anything. He’s heard, of course, that the outfits are expensive, but to this extent…
‘I don’t even have that kind of money now.’ Because he mainly turns the mana stones he earns into Magi, he hadn’t exchanged enough for that much money. ‘Even if I sold all the mana stones I’d gotten, I doubt I’d have enough.’
It’s too expensive.
‘Too bad.’ Because just looking at the equipment was enough to tell the difference.
Kang Yu turned away from the higher-class uniforms:
— Then I’d like to see these…
At that moment, a deafening sound flew through the warehouse.
Kang Yu turned his head to the sound source.
Moon Yeon Ho was standing there, drilling Kang Yu with a disgruntled look.
— Speak politely!
— Huh?
— Speak politely to the head of the guild! — Yeon Ho spoke with anger.
Kang Yu looked at him and smiled.
— What if I don’t want to?
