Chapter 216: Counterattack (3)
As a matter of fact, everyone here knew that I obtained the accessory expansion charm during the Salimaru Bandits quest and received 3 skill points from achieving the max level in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Closed Betas. They also knew I obtained the limited skill ‘Savant’ and two skill points during my forced exile to Region 0 by Pablo. So I told them about all that I went through in the fight with the Oizuki brothers.
“But why did you pretend to have been attacked so helplessly at first?”
“…”

“But why did you pretend to have been attacked so helplessly at first?”
“…”
I didn’t pretend. I was actually beaten up a lot.
So I explained to them again that the ssage rang very late, so I was really beaten up during the initial and mid-stage of the fight.
Anyway, I confessed to my family and Director Sok what happened to in the battle because they needed to know about it.
Moreover, the Myongjin Guild wasn’t the only one dealing with the Mitsuya Guild.
The Myongjin Guild had an alliance with the Mirae Guild.
Since we had to inform them about what happened, our eting continued another one hour.
Of course, my family and Director Sok would decide how much they would share with the Mirae Guild.
That night I had nothing to do because I won the key fight that was like a proxy war between the two forces.
However, I couldn’t log out easily.
“Check the item window. Check the skill window.”
Instead, I checked the item window and skill window again and again.

My item window and skill window returned to normal after exactly 6 hours.
I was fully satisfied after finding out that the traits of the Oizuki brothers were not permanent, but only valid for six hours. But I still had so concerns.
Naly, the timing of the previous ssage.
In other words, I didn’t even think about avoiding their traits from the beginning.
At first glance, I could imdiately discover that they were the secret weapon that the Mitsuya Guild had kept to use against .
What I wanted though was the ssage to ring quickly.
If it rang after almost 30 minutes like it did today, I would be helplessly exposed to the opponent’s attack for 30 minutes.
However, no matter how hard I agonized over it, I could not find the solution.
“Whew. Let just take a rest tonight.”
It seed that I could find the answer tomorrow after confronting them again.
The mont I was going to log out and take a break, I received a ssage from Bora Yon, who I bumped into during the day.
[Kali: What are you doing?]
[Lun: I’m hunting.]
I replied without any hesitation to her question.
Well, I felt like I was burying my head in the sand.
However, I made up my mind to be brazen, so I didn’t feel any remorse while lying to her.
[Kali: Are you sure? Even though Myongjin is fighting against the Japanese Mitsuya Guild, you are hunting?]
[Lun: That’s why I should hunt more. Even if I got involved, I would not be of any help to them. So, it’s better for to level up by hunting more…]
While I was talking to her, I felt my excuses were poor.
So, I stopped talking without finishing what I had to say.
However, she responded right as if she read my mind.
[Kali: Yeah, that makes sense. By the way, Myongjin won today with its own power.]
[Lun: Oh, I also checked it while hunting.]
[Kali: Really? Then you must have seen Asirante’s performance. He was aweso! He not only turned the tide in favor of Myongjin, but also made his enemies retreat. But In the latter half of the fight, he showed so strange behavior.]
[Lun: You bet. ]
No matter how determined I was to behave shalessly, it was really hard for to keep lying to her who was convinced that I was Asirante.
But I could not confide in her at this point just because I felt guilty.
Anyway, I parted with her with the excuse that I was busy hunting, and she encouraged to keep hunting.
“Hmm…is she trying to pressure to reveal my identity as soon as possible?’
Sohow I felt like that.
Anyway, after logging out, I fell asleep.
Eventually, I couldn’t find the solution to the ssage timing. But if the exceptional ssage rang 30 minutes late like it did today, I was going to stay away for 30 minutes in the rear.
Since this was not an event, nor a quest, I was content with just winning. I didn’t want to show off all my strength for the victory.
Of course, I intend to win unconditionally.
In the central battlefield the next day.
Yesterday, I just stayed put in one corner of the battlefield before fighting.
And no one doubted because I had already withdrawn from Daeyu and joined Myongjin.
Besides, there were tens of thousands of Myongjin players here, let alone the Mirae players. However, because my identity was revealed during my battle yesterday, they arranged a seat for at the head table reserved for Myongjin’s top executives.
It was too late for to conceal my identity. Since I didn’t have to hide it anymore, I moved to my seat. Of course, no one talked to because my father, the chairman of Myongjin, and my elder brother and sister, the top executives, as well as Director Sok, pretended not to know .
A little later, a group of people, including Chairman Ryu Sechi stepped forward from the other side.
Chairman Ryu opened his mouth with a loud voice.
“I think our prelude battle was great yesterday. How about we fight it out again today?”
“Sounds good.”
After that, my father and Ryu talked a little more, but I turned my gaze at the Oizuki brothers behind him. Since they were also watching , our eyes t.
I smiled at them briefly because it was who beat them yesterday.
The main fight began imdiately.
