The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 53: Ma Kyung Rok’s Hobby (1)

Ma Kyung-rok fell into an unsettling silence.

You knew about the conversation I had with Seo Arin?

It was unclear whether he was merely observing or if he genuinely possessed the ability to glimpse into the future.

However

Seo Arin, the actress, was ordered to seduce me, regardless of the means or methods.

Ryu Mins words left Ma Kyung-rok no choice but to bow his head.

After all, one cannot make such statements without having glimpsed the future.

If, um, if I have offended you, I sincerely apologize. My intention was simply to encourage a closer relationship with the major shareholder

But it crossed the line when you involved my younger brother in this scheme.

You knew about that too?

The power to see the future truly is a fearsome ability.

Once again, Ma Kyung-rok bowed his head.

I am genuinely, deeply sorry. I made a foolish judgment against the prophet. I will correct any discomfort caused.

His apology was akin to how one would apologize to their own father.

Upon hearing this, Ryu Mins expression softened somewhat.

Since you offer a sincere apology, lets let it slide. Lets pretend I didnt hear the instructions you gave to Seo Arin.

Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity.

Ma Kyung-rok bent his waist at a ninety-degree angle.

There was only one reason why he would show such deference.

I have nothing to gain from earning the prophets hostility. To obtain information about the next round, I must grasp onto the thread of fate.

Survival necessitated seizing the lifeline known as the prophet.

At that moment

Creak

The door swung open, revealing Seo Arin and Ryu Won entering.

An Sang-cheol cautiously peered out from behind.

Representative, what are you doing?

Cough.

Ma Kyung-rok straightened his previously perplexed face and stood upright.

Everyone, please leave us for a while.

Pardon?

Mr. Major Shareholder and I need to have a serious conversation. Director An, please guide the others to the adjoining room.

Ah, I see. Everyone, this way, please.

As the door closed, a profound silence settled between the two.

Ryu Mins expression still showed signs of discomfort.

Darn it, I wanted to improve things through Seo Arin, but it seems I only made matters worse

Regardless of the intentions, it was unpleasant to discover that something had been schemed behind his back.

No wonder I couldnt detect any personal motives when he looked at Seo Arin Was it because he had glimpsed the future?

For Ma Kyung-rok, the situation was fraught with difficulties on many levels.

Do you want to know about the next round?

Yes Did you see it?

Of course. I accepted the invitation to provide you with information about the 5th round. However

Ryu Mins excitement caused his head to perk up.

But in this situation, revealing the information jeopardizes not only our partnership but also becomes challenging for me.

I deeply apologize for causing you any discomfort. Please forgive me.

As the successor of a prominent conglomerate in South Korea, Ma Kyung-rok bowed repeatedly.

Observing his demeanor, Ryu Min had no choice but to take a step back.

You must not withhold anything from me, and you must place your complete trust in me.

Of course. I will do so.

Furthermore, there should be no rumors circulating about the companys operations. Although I hold a 31% stake as the major shareholder, I dislike delays in handling matters due to shareholder meetings. As the representative, it would be wonderful if you could persuade the other shareholders, dont you think?

Of course. Please rest assured. I will do everything in my power to firmly secure the support of the other shareholders without impeding the operations of the major shareholder.

Finally, Ryu Mins smile emerged.

In that case, I can put my mind at ease. With your assistance, I will undoubtedly propel the company to greater heights.

Hahaha, thank you.

Seeing Ryu Mins spirits uplifted, Ma Kyung-rok also found a moment to relax.

Now, I shall provide you with the information you seek regarding the 5th round.

Ma Kyung-roks eyes sparkled with anticipation.

However, upon learning that it was considered the most challenging round yet, he couldnt help but let out a laugh.

No need to worry. If its you, Representative Ma Kyung-rok, there wont be any difficulty we cant overcome.

Whats the quest about?

Its a quest to defeat 300 orcs. However, it wont be as easy as it sounds.

Orcs? Why would it be challenging to defeat orcs?

Typically, orcs are classified as weak monsters in games.

Ma Kyung-roks confusion was entirely understandable.

Is there any other information?

The zones will be merged.

The zones?

Due to the low number of players, they will reduce the number of the separate zones.

So, well have the opportunity to encounter players from other zones? Like that guy with the scythe, for example?

Ma Kyung-roks eyes gleamed with anticipation as he asked, but Ryu Min cautiously shook his head.

You wont be in the same zone as the one with the Scythe.

Ah I see.

Ma Kyung-rok, who had been eagerly anticipating an encounter with Black Scythe, wore a disappointed expression.

Then, a question that had been on his mind suddenly resurfaced.

Do you happen to know the true identity of Black Scythe in reality?

I dont know either.

Although disappointed, Ma Kyung-roks curiosity was far from satisfied.

But the two of you will meet soon.

Really?

Ryu Min bestowed upon him a smile brimming with confidence.

In truth, they had already met.

And one more thing.

Please tell me.

Theres someone youve been pursuingHwang Yongmin.

.!

Ma Kyung-rok tensed up as if facing a formidable opponent.

Do you know about that too?

I told you. Theres no point in keeping anything from me.

Haha, indeed, the prophetic runes you possess transcend imagination. If you happen to know who that person is

Cease your pursuit.

What?

Ma Kyung-roks eyes widened in surprise.

He was suddenly instructed not to track Hwang Yongmin anymore?

Do you have a reason for that?

If you meddle with him, you will face dire consequences.

Can you provide more specifics

All I can reveal ends here.

With those words, Ryu Min fell silent.

In truth, there was no reason for Ma Kyung-rok to face dire consequences.

Ryu Min simply didnt want him to interfere because there was still value in utilizing Hwang Yongmin.

Why should I spare that damn bastard who dared to mess with my people?

The relentless pursuit of Hwang Yongmin was reaching its conclusion.

Ma Kyung-rok had planned to handle the situation discreetly once they had concrete evidence of their encounter, intending to keep it hidden from everyones knowledge.

But now, being instructed to back off, it was inevitable that he would feel a surge of dissatisfaction.

However

I understand. I will cease my pursuit of Hwang Yongmin.

Ma Kyung-rok chose to accept the decision.

Listening to the words of the prophet was far more rewarding than wasting time dealing with that lowlife.

Then lets resume our gathering. Lets have a decent conversation without the need for excessive drinking or lavish entertainment.

Understood.
