Solo Leveling- Ragnarok

Chapter 110:

Thomas Andre sat across from Suho with an embarrassed expression.

And next to them were his secretary Laura and representative Yoo Jin-ho.

"sorry. Unconditionally, Thomas is the fault of this human being. I ask for mercy."

Ignoring Thomas, Laura was apologizing to Suho and Yu Jin-ho on behalf of him.

In particular, he had no choice but to pray unconditionally to Yu Jin-ho, the major shareholder of the scavenger guild.

"Stop talking about Thomas and apologize first."

"Curm. No, but we are known as scavengers, but for just a few pennies..." "

The moment our stock is cut in half because of CEO Jinho Yoo, I know that your ransom is also cut in half."

"Adventure. I was a bit overdone, CEO Yoo."

It was Thomas Andre, who hesitantly straightened up at Laura's words and sat down.

Even so, I didn't forget to add a word.

"Heh heh heh. This is all happening because I am not good at Korean, so let's just laugh and pass it on."

"...For that matter, your pronunciation is really good. Even if you are Korean, I will believe you."

"This is because I am such a fan of Korean dramas. I've been watching a lot of revenge lately, so my Korean is a bit on the extreme side."

"Thomas. Just apologize, just apologize."

Laura let out a sigh and shook her head at the gesture of Thomas, who was giggling and trying to pass it off as a joke.

Even so, the reason why I couldn't help but notice Yoo Jin-ho was because Laura, who was the first to come to Korea, knew the value of the brand 'Ajin Soft' very quickly.

'Azin Soft. A global company leading virtual reality games around the world.'

It is said that the hunter world and the game world are completely separate businesses, but from the point of view of companies, in the end, large companies were bound to be intertwined in some way.

In particular, the fact that Ajinsoft is preparing a game featuring hunters named 'Only I Level Up' was a great amount of high-quality information that was secretly spread among entrepreneurs.

Recently, information has been released to the public little by little, but in fact, few people know that Ajinsoft started planning the project from the moment the cataclysm occurred.

And as if proving that fact, CEO Jinho Yoo had already been steadily buying stocks of large guilds around the world since then.

As if predicting in advance that the share price of hunter guilds would skyrocket the moment a virtual reality game featuring real hunters was released.

'CEO Jinho Yoo is truly a scary person. That they are making their own market and buying all related stocks before the market is created. That's not something anyone can do.'

Unlike Thomas Andre, who was only strong and immature, Laura was the one who knew the true face of CEO Jinho Yoo more than anyone else.

So, I had no choice but to do my best in dealing with him.

Anyway, thanks to that, the situation was resolved amicably, and Yoo Jin-ho let out a sigh of relief.

"Whoa. I'll get it right away. But why did Mr. Thomas come to our Suho?"

"Hmm. I will explain it myself."

When the atmosphere seemed to be getting better, Thomas smiled and looked at Suho.

"Seongsuho, we need your help."

"No suddenly?"

Suho looked at him with a genuinely absurd expression.

Do you think someone who needs help will come and attack you like you're going to kill them?

'Is your brain full of muscles? Or even senility.'

However, there was a part where Suho was stabbed right away to be angry with him over this.

"okay. At first, I was going to drag it in moderation, but I never dreamed that it would be this difficult. I'm sorry anyway. apologize."

"..."

"Uh huh. I apologized, so let go of your anger, man. I'm not saying anything because you killed our guild members."

Hearing those words, Suho flinched and almost lost his expression.

But, on the outside, he maintained a shameless expression and responded to his words.

"I don't understand what you mean at all."

"What are you talking about now? Our Suho has lived only in Korea all his life. How can a guy who has never been abroad claim to have killed a scavenger guild member?"

[Well done! Keep pushing!]

It was Ver who was cheering Yoo Jin-ho hard in the shadows.

"Hehe. Actually, that's a very strange part for me, too."

As if he knew it would come out like that, Thomas grinned and leaned back in his chair with a relaxed attitude.

"Of course there is no evidence. no witnesses Not only the corpses of our guild members who went missing in the first place, but even the pyramids that they said they went in to attack at will have disappeared."

"CEO Jinho Yoo, we don't have anything to argue for on this, so you can pretend you didn't hear."

Laura, who was commenting next to me, raised her glasses and said.

"But I heard that the Asura Guild hunters who survived and returned from the pyramid submitted strange reports. He said he became acquainted with a Korean figure called Hunter Seong Su-ho."

[I knew it would be like this! Little lord, I must rip their mouths apart!]

Ber stood up from under the shadows in a huff.

Suho stomped on the guy with his foot and talked casually.

"I don't know who it is, but it seems to be the same person."

"Of course it could be, but that is fine. After all, the guild members who went missing there were always a nuisance that caused a lot of trouble."

"okay. It doesn't matter where or by whom those idiots were beaten. Of course, if I were in my prime, I wouldn't let go of those who dared touch my property."

Thomas rolled his eyes and gnashed his teeth.

But he didn't spew out a life so hastily as before.

Rather, he muttered in a low voice mixed with a sigh, with a bitter expression on his face.

"...because I have much more important things to do now."

Thomas looked into Suho's eyes and spoke in a serious tone.

"Then you need to help me."

"...what the hell are you asking for help with? I'm just a C-class hunter."

At this point, Suho also became curious.

What on earth is it that an American S-class hunter is asking for when he comes to him in Korea?

"It doesn't matter if you're C-class or E-class. Because Norma Selner's prophecies have never been wrong."

"Norma Selner? Could it be that the prophet prophesied about Suho?"

The first to react to those words was Yoo Jin-ho.

He was the only one of these four who had memories of his past life, so he knew better than anyone how important Norma Selner's prophecy was.

"okay. The old woman made a prophecy by picking out the Korean Seongsuho. Only this guy can help me."

When he pointed out himself, Suho asked.

"What kind of help do you mean?"

"I don't know. Because the grandmother's prophecy ended there. But my grandmother told me to tell you this."

"...?"

"Glacier Dungeon. Maybe there you can find a clue about your mother."

...!

Suho and Yoo Jin-ho, who suddenly heard words they couldn't even imagine, opened their eyes at the same time.

Even Ber, who was eavesdropping from below, couldn't help but be astonished.

[Kiehehehehe! A clue about Haein! Little lord! It's a miracle! It's a miracle!]

'Be quiet for a moment! Organize your thoughts.'

Suho's mind suddenly felt like it was completely messed up.

does this make sense?

The first words of an uninvited foreign guest who came from a completely unexpected place are the actions of a mother who disappeared a few years ago.

Yoo Jin-ho hurriedly looked at Suho.

"Soo Suho! Norma Selner's prophecies are to be believed! You may not know, but he is...!"

[Even the small man knows! Once upon a time, my lord told me, that old woman was a prophet who even answered a prophecy about a war between the Shadow Legion and the Lords! I don't know what a glacier dungeon is, but this is one I absolutely must go to!]

While Ber was rambling in the shadows like that.

Thomas' secretary, Laura, was persuading Suho with a serious face.

"I can vouch for Norma Selner's prophecy, as I heard it with him. He didn't say more details, but he said that if you help us, it will definitely help the Seongsuho Hunter in some way."

"...I'll think about it for now."

Suho managed to open his mouth while calming his complicated mind for a moment.

In response, Thomas chuckled and said:

"Yes, yes. well thought out I knew you would accept it."

"Thomas Seongsu-ho Hunter replied that he would think about it. Please study Korean more."

"That word is that word."

It was Thomas who accepted Suho's answer as he pleased and laughed heartily.

* * *

[Of course you're going?]

After Thomas went back to the hotel, Ver was stomping his feet anxiously at Suho who came home.

[No matter how much Haein-nim is blessed by his lord, in the end he is just an ordinary human being. Even at this moment, just thinking about where and what kind of hardships Soin is going through makes Soin so worried... Hehehe!]

Ver, clinging to Suho's shoulder, wept bitterly.

Of course, he said he would think about it, but in fact, Suho's answer was fixed.

"Of course I will go."

It was the first clue about her mother found after several years of disappearance.

Even if the prophecy was false, it was right to go and check it unconditionally.

But the reason he was hesitant to answer now was another matter.

"Glacier Dungeon. The problem is that there is absolutely no information about where it is."

I don't know where it was, but it was a dungeon that even an S-class hunter would have a hard time with.

I was going to enter such a place, but I couldn't answer that I would go in without any information.

'Especially if there is a mother's clue there.'

Judging by Thomas Andre's temper today, there was a very high probability that he would kidnap him on the spot and take him to the United States the moment he answered yes.

'It's obvious that I'm senile. It's because he's an old man who came to ask for help and started attacking without hesitation.'

Let's be careful and careful again.

It wouldn't be strange if the old man came and kidnapped him, even tomorrow morning.

Before that, it was urgent to find out information about the Glacier Dungeon as soon as possible.

But the problem was that even Thomas Andre didn't have much information about it.

In the first place, the scavenger guild itself was not a guild with good information for a large guild.

The reason, ironically, was that next to Thomas, the guild leader, was Mrs. Norma Selner, a famous prophet.

With an excellent prophet right next to him, his ability to collect information while working hard was gradually deteriorating.

So, after sending Thomas back to the hotel, Suho asked Yoo Jin-ho to gather as much information as possible about the glacier dungeon.

And he also began to track information using HunterNet and other means.

"If you're sure there's a mother's clue there, you can't make a mistake. I have to be fully prepared and go..."

That was then.

Suho's phone rang.

"Anyway, my phone never gets a break."

Perhaps, since Suho became a hunter, it was his cell phone that suffered more than anyone else.

"Is this a number you don't know?"

Suho looked at the number on the screen and made a puzzled expression.

I suspected it was spam for a moment, but it could have been a call from Thomas or Laura, so I pressed the call button.

Then, the voice that came from the other side was a completely different person.

– Seongsuho Hunter! I'm here! I'm Lio Xing!

"...Who was it?"

Suho covered his phone with his hand and looked at Ver.
