I Login Alone

Chapter 177

“Oh, it’s Si-woo! I missed you so much!”

“Marina!?”

As soon as he saw her, Jung Si-woo turned his head to his father. Marina was waving her wings, but he lightly stopped her before she could hug him.

“Why is she here?”

“I’m more comfortable working with John, but I can’t keep borrowing him. He went for a dungeon attack. To raise the level, he’s never raised before.”

Of course, they were aware. Yesterday, John Smith had a pretty powerful ghost attached to him. He borrowed the ghost’s view in time to see him organizing the party. The problem was that his replacement wasn’t credible at all.

“That’s why I’m here instead! Oppa told me to get a lot of points.”

“That’s because he’s the manager of the Magic Stone Trading Management….”

Still, you wouldn’t normally say that in person. Marina was always happy, but he was suspicious of whether Marina was planning to score points from the exchange head. Ultimately, he decided not to touch that subject because he wasn’t interested in whether she got points from his father or not.

“I’m Jung Si-hwan. Nice to meet you, Miss Bissett.”

“Nice to meet you, Father!”

Surprisingly, Marina bowed her head and spoke Korean, not English!

“Hmm!?”

“That was the score!”

He decided not to touch it, but he couldn’t help his retort. Love issues before business development? Wasn’t there a problem with this brother and sister?

“I learned Korean! I look forward to your kind cooperation, Father!”

Marina, who spoke poor Korean, not English, looked up at Jung Si-woo. Jung Si-woo thought it was clear that she memorized the whole pronunciation, not learning it, but when he saw it, Jung Si-hwan finally burst into laughter.

“This is a tough daughter-in-law candidate.”

“Father!?”

Soo Ah-rin looked betrayed by her trusted colleague. Jung Si-woo sighed and flicked Marina and Soo Ah-rin’s foreheads.

“Stop doing that, you guys. Where’s your shame, the shame.”

“What’s that mean?”

“I left that behind at the Sky castle before I retired!”

Not to mention that Marina didn’t understand it because he spoke in Korean. Jung Si-woo, who was afraid that Soo Ah-rin would say more bold things if she stayed here in this situation, decided to hurry to the Ant Cave. But before that, he asked Marina.

“There’s a chance the Yongseong Guild is targeting my father. Did you see my text?

“Yeah, I’m not going to team up with him anymore. Don’t worry; I’m pretty sure about the escort.”

He wasn’t worried about that part. Marina’s ability to detect signs related to Mana alone would be able to shoot and kill a powerful player, even if they had a sniper or a powerful man before guarding them.

“All right, then we’ll go to work.”

“Oh, Oppa, wait a minute! Father, I’m more Korean than Marina….”

“You’re going to have to stop the blockade.”

He turned around, sighing. Then, suddenly, the vision of the ghost appeared. John Smith seemed to have completed the formation of the team. He was shaking hands with the members one by one. However, Jung Si-woo, who had been agonizing for a while, recalled a problem with it and that it was a reaction when the ghost found a large number of mana stones.

‘A player can carry a Magic stone. In their inventory or their pockets.’

However, the ghost shook his head, drawing attention one after another several time. He couldn’t look at them in detail because he couldn’t express the dragon’s senses through ghosts, but he was afraid…the ghost felt as if they were staring at the inside of their bodies.

“…Oh, let’s see.”

He quickly realized what the ghost wanted to convey. He probably wouldn’t have known if he hadn’t been here in England and met his father. So now the ghost was reporting a pile of Magic stones inside the bodies of some of the players who partied with John Smith.

“Unfortunately…”

“Si-woo, what are you doing there? I won’t bother you no matter what you don’t say. Don’t worry; I’ll put you on the list for daughter-in-law candidates. Of course, Ah-rin is the overwhelming number one so far.”

“I’m not interested in that problem right now.”

He just turned to Marina, thinking it was a good thing she didn’t understand.

“Marina, do you know what dungeon John Smith is challenging?”

“Yeah, it’s the smallest of the 34 dungeons, so there’s a small breakthrough. Not too long ago, I succeeded in solo playing through it. Hehehe.”

By any stretch of the imagination, it was clear that Marina’s force standards. Were in favor of other players. Jung Si-woo continued with a smirk at the bragging that she made nothing of.

“Then go there right now and help John Smith. Oh, we need Seria, and Seo Hee, if possible. The Yongseong Guild seems to be trying to do something, but there’s no place to stop it right now. If possible, I want you to protect John Smith and find out what they’re up to.”

“That’s Seria’s expertise. She’ll be right here! …Oh, what about Father?

Marina, who only pronounced the word father in Korean, seemed to have been well educated. Jung Si-woo smiled and took a step toward Jung Si-hwan.

“I’ll protect you.”

“I’m sure Shu will. Well, now that it’s done, I’ll go now! Bye, Father!”

“Don’t call me Shu!”

“Hmm, hm?”

After a quick conversation, Marina immediately spread her feather wings and darted out of the window as a question mark came to mind on Jung Si-hwan’s face. Jung Si-woo explained briefly.

“The Yongseong Guild has taken action. They’re after John Smith right now. It’s possible he’s being targeted.”

“That’s why you sent Miss Bissett.”

“That’s the best I can do now. I can’t go to the Sky Castle.”

Then, it was almost certain that Marina would have to take care of the Sky Castle, and Jung Si-woo would protect his father himself.

“But now that Miss Bissett has gone to Sky Castle, I guess we’ve figured this out. If you do well, you may even have been caught here.”

“Then there are two possibilities left. Look at Marina…”

Make sure you get this far with John Smith. Jung Si-hwan also nodded heavily at his words.

“Yes, I think so, too. I’m just worried, son. What made them move so boldly? They don’t have a clear motive.”

It was certainly taboo to eat Magic stones, but there were no legal means to prevent it. Even if they found out that Jung Si-hwan and John Smith were suspicious of the Yongseong Guild, there was no reason for them to move first.

“If for the opposite reason, it’s possible.”

“Reason…?”

“Things my father manages.”

Jung Si-hwan understood it at once.

“They’re going to overpower me and secure magic stones by compulsory means?”

“Bingo.”

“That doesn’t explain anything. It’s not a modern European society, and I’m the only one who has the old idea that I can control the world’s Magic stone flow…”

Then Jung Siwoo reached out. The bullet that was flying through the open window was caught in his finger. Three more shots: they were all anesthesia bullets.

“You really have that old-fashioned idea.

“In downtown London, they’ve gone crazy.”

Jung Si-woo flicked all the bullets in his grasp out of the window lightly.

“Did you throw it back…?”

“No, I killed him. Whether it’s anesthetic or rubber bullets, I shot it, so they’ll die.”

“…”

Hearing that, Jung Si-hwan realized again that his son had gone to a world unrelated to law or morality. He couldn’t believe he was saying he killed a man without feeling guilty. However, Jung Si-woo began to seriously think about whether his father knew he was thinking like that.

“Now they’ll realize that shooting from afar won’t solve it, and if they make a big move, it won’t be easy to take the magic stones…how will they come? I don’t think they’re going to bring in civilians.”

“I’ll contact the police and the government for now.”

But the results weren’t so great. Jung Si-hwan, who hung up the phone after hearing an official dismissing him saying it was nonsense, looked stiff.

“What a fool.”

“Don’t tell me you didn’t cross the line. Is there anyone who you can reach?”

“Wait and see.”

If it were the U.S., even the president would have been able to go directly to the U.K. However, when Jung Si-hwan tried to contact the British leadership through the U.S., the communication was abruptly cut off.

“…It’s not communicating.”

“Yeah, I figured it all out.”

They didn’t move on a whim. To end it from the start, they were shutting down communications in parts of London. Now they could move as much as they wanted.

“It’s been fun, but yeah…”

“What a bloody thing to say.”

“Se-ha, carry father on your back. I need you to protect him.

“Yes, Hyeong-nim. Thank you for trusting me.”

Yong Se-ha immediately hefted Jung Si-hwan on his back and expressed his tanking skills that he had gained in the process of growing up with Jung Si-woo. It was a self-sacrificing skill that attracted everyone to attack him instead of his allies! Now, Jung Si-hwan wouldn’t be hurt, at least until Yong Se-ha died.

“Let’s go.”

The moment they jumped out of the window, their hotel exploded like in a cartoonish display. Since it wasn’t a mana-powered bomb, Jung Si-woo couldn’t detect it until just before the explosion.

“What…!”

“It’s not a movie! He’s crazy!”

If he had been caught in that, Jung Si-hwan, an ordinary man, would have died, but he seemed to have thought he would have prepared this much. However, in the process, Jung Si-hwan’s protection was intended to be shaken.

“…Yeah, civilian damage is on the line.”

And it backfired properly. Jung Si-woo had always hated being caught up in a fight. To prevent it, even if it were a style of combat that he didn’t usually prefer, he would choose it without hesitation.

“Everyone gather.”

The imprint on the back of his hand shone brilliantly. At that moment, his will was passed on to all the ghosts he had spread out.

[Soul Force skill has become Lv12]

[Master!?]

First of all, Caina, who was getting along with Beto in her area, was called out. She, too, was a soul belonging to Jung Si-woo! It had been impossible so far, but his will succeeded in summoning her directly to his side.

[Master!]

[I heard you call us, my lord!]

But that was just the beginning. When tens of thousands of ghosts spread throughout the world appeared in front of his eyes, their souls overlapped so much that it seemed as if there was a fog around him. Jung Si-hwan was so freaked out to see it that he couldn’t say anything.

“Don’t miss a single one of my enemies and catch them all.”

The Lord of the spirits declared.

“Drag them in front of me.”

[Okay.]

Tens of thousands of ghosts, including Caina, scattered in all directions. Jung Si-woo looked up after checking if anyone survived under the hotel that was completely blown away by the explosion. His eyes shone brightly as he glanced over the remains of the dead.

[Dragon’s Sense skill has become Lv6.]

[The Dragon’s Dignity Skill has become Lv12.]

[Power skill has become Lv10]

Even Soo Ah-rin was scared and couldn’t talk to him. His anger was palpable.

‘I never thought that the world would last forever.’

It’s finally started. A world ruled by force and mana, a world where power was law. Who in the world could stand on top of Jung Si-woo? He snorted and took the hammer out of his inventory.

From now on, it was time for punishment.
