- Chapter 84 - Player Who Returned 10,000 Years Later
— They’ve already interfered with us twice… — The masked man began to radiate a terrible aura of hatred.
The Disciples, frightened by the power emanating from him, trembled.
— Prepare the Shadows.
— Are you planning to destroy Chae Young-ju?
— Yes. We must get rid of the one who is constantly disrupting our plans.
— She’s very strong.
The girl was one of those among the Top Players in the country.
In addition, not only did Red Rose have strength, but also power, which would make it difficult to eliminate the girl.
(Editor’s Note: Physical strength/ability plus power to sway society.)
The masked man smiled.
— Chae Young-ju has a rookie she’s protecting. A smug guy named Oh Kang Yu. Take him hostage.
— Ah…
— That bastard doesn’t know the way the world works. So it’s going to be easy.
— Understood.
— Take him captive by all means. Oh, and there’s some little girl he always walks with. Grab them both.
— A little girl…?
The masked man nodded.
— I can feel Magi coming from her. It is necessary to check whether this is the case.
— Yes!
The Disciples rose from the floor and left the room.
— Fuooh…
Left alone in the room, he took a deep breath and exhaled, removing the red mask from his face.
— I don’t like it one bit.
The masked man… No, Baek Kang Hyun put the mask on the table, his face twisted.

— I’ve deducted the cost of repairs, this is the remaining balance.
Hwa Yeon had called Kang Yu and Young-ju to Hwaran’s headquarters and handed them an envelope.
— After we sold the mana stones and body, about ten billion was rewarded. Since this is the first time El Quero has been caught, his body was even more valuable.
— Hmm. Is that why you’re giving us 50 billion each?
— Yes.
— Why didn’t you leave anything for yourself?
— I don’t need it. Besides, the two of you put much more effort into capturing the monster.
— You’re like a messenger from Heaven… — Smiling joyfully, Young-ju tucked the envelope into her breast pocket.
Hwa Yeon continued:
— And there’s good news.
— Good news? — Young-ju questioned.
— Are you talking about the stones? — Kang Yu asked, voice filled with hope.
Hwa Yeon shook her head.
— No. The squad is on the case, but we haven’t found anything so far. But there’s something else.
— What is it?
— We extracted material from El Quero’s body that’s suitable for creating Legendary gear. They said a sword can be made from the thorns on his tail.
— Ooooh!
— Wow, we’re really lucky.
Both Young-ju and Kang Yu’s eyes sparkled.
Legendary Elite equipment.
As a high-class Player, possessing at least one such thing is an indicator of their strength, so without exaggeration, it is a highly valuable asset.
In addition, after recently experiencing the power of Legendary gear for himself, a greed has awakened in Kang Yu.
‘Though I don’t use swords like this…’
The guy didn’t use physical swords. Or rather, he didn’t need to.
After all, he can conveniently create whatever weapon necessary and use it during battle.
But since the equipment would increase his stats, he was ready to try.
— And also, the approximate features that the sword will be endowed with have been determined… Most likely, it will increase either strength or agility.
— Ah…
— Then it’s useless for me, — Young-ju and Kang Yu said at the same time.
Since Kang Yu predominantly used Magi, and Young-ju Maryok, the increase in strength or agility would not play a special role for them.
— Hwa Yeon, can’t you use it?
— Haha. Unfortunately, I do not fit its terms of unity.
There were cases when certain parameters were set for the unity process with equipment.
These parameters were included in the equipment not at the manufacturing stage, but depended on the source materials. And this meant that it was impossible to change them.
— What are its conditions?
— You must have a unique aura.
(Editor’s Note: It’s actually ‘life force,’ or your ‘qi energy’ or ‘energy flow,’ but I think aura works better.)
— Aura? Like in the comics?
— Yes. It is said that Players with such power do exist, but few. Usually they are Players from China… In Korea, they are almost non-existent.
— Hmm… so it does have some value. Can you sell it in China?
— I wanted to hear your opinion first. After all, you put in a lot of effort to catch El Quero.
Hearing this, Kang Yu and Young-ju nodded their heads.
It was true that the greatest role in capturing the monster was played by Kang Yu, with Young-ju’s support.
Of course, the others helped too, but not to the same extent.
— Well, no one in my guild has that much power. Let’s set the exact cost and sell it.
— I know a buyer, — Kang Yu suddenly said.
— Kang Yu…?
The guy nodded his head.
A unique aura.
He knew one person with this description.
Kim Si Hoon.
The good-natured guy Dae Su had brought in.
A player with outstanding looks and even more outstanding skills.
‘Though we are not of the same blood, I consider him my little brother.’
It was no exaggeration to say that they have become really close lately.
Soul-bound Players, and this was not just a metaphor.
‘I want to give a gift to my little brother!’ Kang Yu thought, clenching his fists tightly.
