Chapter 125
Episode 125
The battle at Mermaid Island was the last time I was active under the sea. The total number of stats raised so far… Whatever the number, it can be summed up in one word.
X now has become incomparably stronger than then!
Slut!
When X swung his sword, a strong spray of water tore through the sea.
Wherever the spray passes, only the gray corpses of monsters remain!
“There’s nothing better except that it tastes salty, right?”
Bubble bubble! Air bubbles spewed out from X’s mouth.
Due to the effect of Heavenly Cooking, X was able to freely breathe underwater.
Moreover, thanks to the heavenly cuisine that evolved into Samsung cuisine, Yongyong was also able to freely roam next to X.
‘In terms of experience, the dungeon was overwhelming, but this place is just as good as the Patran Forest. Plus, sometimes there are big fish that bite the bait.’
Big fish approaching X and Yongyong without fear!
So far, X has caught a total of three big fish. They were all named monsters and spit out rare grade ingredients. Of course, there was one among them that I was most pleased to see.
“Is it possible for a coincidence like this to happen?”
That’s the chainsaw claw, the champion of the abyss!
X confirmed the title he had earned for the first time in a while.
Illuminate the Abyss: Defeated the Abyss Champion in the Sea of Fate. When fighting at sea, attack power increases by 1.5% and defense and magic resistance each increase by 10. The effect increases according to the number of champions killed. (Currently defeated Abyss Champions: 2)
‘It’s a big fish that increases attack power by 0.5%!’
Seahawk, the leader of the fishmen.
It was a title obtained by killing the Abyss Slayer raised by Seahawk. Originally, it increased attack power by 1%, defense power and magic resistance by 5 each. It seems to be true that the effect increases according to the number of champions killed.
“I don’t know how many Abyss champions there will be, but I hope there are a ton of them. “I just caught at least 1,000…”
X continues hunting with a greedy mind!
Fighting underwater became another valuable experience. Since there was only sea water everywhere, I was able to practice detecting enemy movements in an open area.
‘There are some who are constantly tracking me.’
It is an ocean field with a wide variety of monsters. Thanks to this, there were some guys who were constantly following X and looking for opportunities to attack him.
Of course, X didn’t bother to catch them. This is also an exercise in maintaining a sense of tracking. X found something to practice with even ordinary hunting.
I devoted myself to hunting like that for several hours.
X repeated dozens of times, hitting all the monsters he saw around him and swimming forward. Because of that, when I came to my senses, it was no surprise that I was in the middle of the ocean.
“The buff is coming to an end, so I’ll have to settle down at the reef.”
“Kyuut. Wow.”
“Okay, let’s eat together.”
“Kyuuuu!”
The owner who prepares meals is the best.
X came up to the surface with Yongyong, who was acting cute as if he was hungry.
The sun had completely set, but the stars seemed to pour down overhead. Thanks to this, X, who found the reef, was able to settle down on the reef.
“The view is killer.”
Roar! A torch burning in the middle of the sea.
X immediately started preparing the meal. First, I grilled the fish I caught directly for Yongyong.
X, who was boiling water in a pot, suddenly asked Yongyong, who was chewing and swallowing the entire thorn.
“But are you really hungry? “I saw it earlier and it kept eating.”
“Kyuut? Kyuuuu….”
“No, but it definitely seemed like he was eating it secretly behind my back?”
“Kyuuuu….”
What the hell. Since when have you had your eyes on the back of your head?
X looked at the embarrassed Yongyong and laughed.
How could you not know? Those who were persistently pursuing them disappeared in an instant.
It was clear that Yongyong, who was behind him, had eaten it. It was nice to the eyes even without looking at it.
“But since you were honest, I’ll give you one more!”
“Kyuut!!”
Maybe it’s because he’s growing up, but Yongyong eats whatever he gets! In the end, Yongyong fell asleep with a full stomach.
X canceled the summoning of Yongyong. Then, he manipulated the UI and took out a crystal sphere.
‘It’s only been a few days since the broadcast.’
Hunting in a dungeon with no time to rest! The reason why X didn’t turn on the broadcast was simple. Although I was out of my mind, I basically wanted to enjoy the dungeon’s honey by myself.
“But I’ve been working hard on broadcasts recently, so I’m sure you’ll understand, right?”
When X, who thought so, started broadcasting, viewers flocked in as if they had been waiting.
X glanced at the chat window and was shocked.
-ㅋㅋ If you knew this would happen, why
did you say you were sincere~ -X, are you determined to do it for three days?ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
-You must have had circumstances that you couldn’t avoid. Then, please make an excuse!!
This was the reaction of dissatisfied viewers. They said they would broadcast consistently, but they stopped broadcasting for a few days without notice.
Flat porridge! X bowed his head 90 degrees and said hello.
“Thank you for visiting the show, The Ugly Guy Who Couldn’t Keep His Promises! If I had to make an excuse since they gave me the opportunity, I hunted so hard to keep the promise I made to the viewers…”
That’s how X’s profuse apology began! Fortunately, the response from viewers was favorable.
-Haha, you don’t even have to apologize haha
– That’s what you guys are saying so it’s true!!
-If you’ve been hunting to the point of losing your mind, you must have found a honey hunting ground haha. So, did you level up a lot? Can you keep your promise?
“of course! “Of course you have to keep your word.”
X started cooking while chatting. A variety of seafood dishes, including salt-grilled seafood stew!
Thanks to this, viewers were able to easily guess where X was.
-X, you went to the beach!!
-I was doing some fishing and when I saw it, I
saw that he had gone to the western sea. -Can you show me the surroundings after eating?!!
The places Hot Player X visited always became a hot topic. There are even users who find places where X passed by, eat at the same spot, and take proof shots.
Wow! said X, who put a large crab leg in his mouth.
“Tsk tsk scenery? It’s not difficult. Wait.”
X manipulated the crystal sphere around. Then the broadcast screen began to change rapidly.
The first thing I saw was the night sky with the Milky Way rising.
-Wow… they’re all so pretty
-ㄹㅇ Where on earth are there so many stars on the beach?
-First of all, it’s not Lablina. There are a lot of tourists there, so it’s as bright as daylight at night.
The next thing that appeared on the screen was the wildly turbulent night sea.
Shoot! But there is only sea everywhere. For some reason, the beach was nowhere to be seen.
-…is it really in the middle of the ocean?
-Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Why did you go there again!!
-There was a reason why Kyeong Kyeong was killed hahaha.
X’s radius of action is so unpredictable!
Viewers also seemed dumbfounded.
“Why did you come here?”
What is the reason? After swimming in the water all day chasing monsters, I came to my senses and found myself in this place.
But haven’t we learned something from Denise? In any case, speaking nicely can be beneficial.
“Is there any other reason? I came here because I haven’t been able to broadcast for a few days and also because I wanted to show our viewers a great view! lol.”
It was a comment that clearly showed the viewers were not fools.
-ㅋX, you’re really bad at lying
. -Why don’t we just fool you? Otherwise, do you think I’ll just keep saying such mean things every time I broadcast? LOL
– Wow. Ah. really. it’s impressive.
Viewers’ playful chat continued. The face of X, who was watching, slightly heated up!
‘Next time, I’ll have to prepare a more surprising comment.’
The thing that X was holding bit his leg.
*
Maisie.
A company whose stock price has risen day by day since launching Fate.
A huge company with a current stock price approaching 2 trillion won!
The president of Magi was, of course, Dr. Schubert, who developed Fate.
“huh?”
So Jiwon Lee, who was grilling meat as usual, had no choice but to stop.
Lee Ji-won managed her personal broadcast and turned on the Internet to check out the latest news about Fate.
Then, out of nowhere, I saw four letters that were ranked #1 in search terms.
‘Schubert? Is something wrong?’
Schubert did not easily appear in the press. It’s natural to be curious.
Jiwon Lee touched Schubert. Lee Ji-won, who was reading the article that soon came to mind, started making a fuss.
I quickly took out my fork.
“Yes, beef is usually eaten undercooked.”
Medium rare.
Unlike usual, I put the undercooked beef on my plate and quickly headed to the sofa.
When I turned on the TV for the first time after moving into the penthouse, the vast screen became brighter.
“What and how many times?”
It was late, but fortunately all channels were covering the same topic.
click! In the pouring flash, the face of a man with gray hair was visible. He has a face that looks like something he would have done in his youth.
He was Chairman Schubert.
Munching. Lee Ji-won chewed beef.
‘Why on earth does such an important announcement take so long?’
Big announcement!
That’s an announcement that Chairman Schubert even made while appearing in the media. Lee Ji-won, who had risked her life on Fate, had no choice but to focus.
-Are you done with the questions?
Schubert said.
Judging by the atmosphere, it seemed like they were taking questions from reporters first. He was indeed not an ordinary person.
When you make an important announcement, it is obvious that there will be a lot of questions about it. It was clear that he had an intention to leave immediately after the presentation.
“Tsk tsk, after all, if you have a good head, your body will suffer less.”
Before Lee Ji-won was amazed, Schubert answered the last reporter’s question. He continued speaking without any sign of hesitation.
-As you all know, I put my all into Fate. I thought it was fate as it was meant to be. Watching the world that players are pioneering in Fate gives me a great sense of catharsis.
‘Oh, you’re very honest.’
It was a fairly straightforward expression. But it felt sincere.
-I always hope that Fate players feel the same pleasure as I do. May you constantly challenge impossible goals and achieve great rewards. Also, I hope you don’t compromise with reality.
“…I don’t quite understand your last sentence?”
Don’t compromise with reality?
Who doesn’t like adventure? In Fate, where everything you dream of exists.
However, it is difficult to take on the challenge easily if you think about the loss if you fail. Even in Fate, you have no choice but to compromise with reality.
Schubert on TV raised his eyebrows.
-So all I can do is offer compensation that will make you forget reality.
A reward that makes you forget reality? I wondered if such a thing existed, but Lee Ji-won’s mouth couldn’t help but gape at the words that followed.
-This is the main point. I wish to transfer all of the mage stocks I own to the emperor who rules the Fate World or a player with achievements equivalent to him. I promise you this right here.
“What?”
Meiji’s total stock price amounts to 2 trillion.
It was Chairman Schubert who secured the largest stake in Meiji.
If you convert the stocks he owns, it easily exceeds the annual operating expenses of most countries. No matter how eccentric he may be, I never thought he would declare such a nuclear bomb.
-Chairman, is that true?!
As Chairman Schubert tried to leave after completing his presentation, the press conference room became chaos.
But Lee Ji-won remained silent. Biting your lower lip means that you are thinking more seriously than ever. Lee Ji-won, who was in agony, pulled out her head.
“Why, why now? I haven’t even tried anything yet?”
Whoever holds the supremacy of Fate will gain enormous wealth!
An important announcement that stimulates the challenge of the strong players of Fate.
But at the same time, there was no harsher declaration for X, a novice lord who had just gained territory!
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
