Chapter 109: “20 Questions” (2)

She said, “I don’t want the golden rings. I know what items you are wearing, so I can accept these accessories, but not the golden rings. Just use them yourself.”

“Sis, I have a lot of golden rings. As you know, Dad and Myongjin gave me most of the items I’m wearing now.”

In fact, my father gave me many items including not only the level 300 legendary grade Ronan’s wizard robe set but also the Sacred Permanent Snow Spirit accessory set of the legendary grade. In fact, the only legendary item I acquired myself was the Brave Warrior’s Bracelet. The items gifted to me were valued far beyond hundred of millions of golden rings.

“No thanks, Juyoung. As you know, Myongjin also becomes stronger as you get stronger. So, don’t worry about this. Just focus on getting stronger. Of course, be careful at all times. Got it?”

“Okay.”

So, I removed the 100 million golden rings from the exchange window, then talked with her a little longer about various things including my planned meeting with Daeyu’s Chairman Suh around lunchtime tomorrow.

She repeatedly told me to take extreme caution when meeting him tomorrow. She used the words ‘extreme caution’ more than ten times before parting with me.

And I immediately logged out.

The next day I engaged in herd hunting in the Tombs of the Dead before lunchtime.

After logging out, I ate lunch and moved straight to Northwood Castle.

While moving there, I was a little worried because I didn’t give anything to Suh in return for his generous gifts, although he was meeting me for the primary purpose of winning me over.

Of course, he won’t expel me from Daeyu because he has already invested so much in me and he was so passionate about hiring me.

When I entered the cafe where I met him before,.Chairman Suh was already seated waiting for me. I slowly approached him and greeted him.

“How are you, Chairman Suh?”

“Ok, it’s nice to see you here again. I have already been briefed by my staff about it, but is there anything else you need?

“Oh, no, I don’t need anything else right now. I’m so grateful for your support.”

Of course, I intended to obtain much more from him because Daeyu can still offer a lot more support for me. But I thought of moving slowly because I don’t need to be in a hurry for now, just like a chubby leech that grew so slowly that the person it was attached to did not notice.

“Good. If you need anything in the future, don’t hesitate to tell us at any time because your growth equates to Daeyu’s growth.”

“Thank you, Mr. Chairman.”

After that, we conversed a little more, but he didn’t mention anything special or important.

So, I was curious why he wanted to see me today.

He didn’t have to see me face to face like this when he could send me a message on the phone. But I didn’t show my feelings and responded to him appropriately as needed.

By the time our conversation was almost over, Chairman Suh said in a low voice, “May I ask if you are interested in a quest?”

“Quest?”

“Yes, a quest.”

“Is there anyone playing ‘Revival Legend’ who is not interested in aquest?”

Quests were very precious because they gave great rewards..

“Then, are you interested in proceeding with a quest? It is very difficult though.”

“Well, if you give me one, I can do it, of course.”

Chairman Suh clearly mentioned the quest he had in mind was very difficult.

So, I became more greedy for it because the more difficult a quest was, the greater its rewards upon successful completion of the quest.

“Then, how about betting on it?”

“A bet?”

“Yes. If you clear the quest within three attempts, you get to keep all the rewards and profits from the quest. But if you fail within three attempts, you will dine with me once. How about it?”

“…”

Obviously, his ‘dining’ didn’t mean virtual “dining” within the game of “Revival Legend.” He meant “dining” in the real world, which would expose my real-life information.

Of course, I am confident that I can clear any quest.

Moreover, even if I can’t clear the quest, I don’t have to keep the promise of dining with him.

However, Chairman Suh is probably using the Memory Bead now.

So, if I do not fulfill the promise, he will show the video of this meeting to pressure me. He would even threaten to disclose the video if I still don’t acquiesce.

Of course, Asirante will take the blame for breaking the promise, but obviously, Asirante was my ID.

In other words, if he really translates his threat into action, my name Asirante would receive an irrevocable black mark.

So, I had no choice but to agonize over Chairman Suh’s offer.

Of course, all I had to do was clear the quest within three tries. Then I would have no problem whatsoever. Moreover, I am confident in clearing quests of any difficulty.

Finally, I opened my mouth confidently.

“Sorry, Mr. Chairman. These days I feel I am not as good at hunting as I was before. So, I would like to focus on hunting more.”

As for my greed for the quest he mentioned? Of course I’m in. I’m all the more enthusiastic because he mentioned the quest was very difficult and I’m confident in clearing any difficult quest with 100%, or even 1000% certainty.

However, I have no intention of taking a useless risk. Even if it was revealed later that the quest was of a level that I could easily clear, I wouldn’t regret my decision because the moment I associated with Daeyu, I repeatedly pledged that I would never reveal even 1% about my real-life identity no matter what.

At that moment Chairman Suh, who always had a gentle smile while talking with me, frowned at my unexpected refusal.

However, I did not intend to change my decision, so I casually sipped the tea in front of me.

“Good, Asirante. Then, how about this?”

“Pardon?”

“Let’s do a twenty-question game.”

“What do you mean? I really don’t understand what you are talking about.”

“I mean exactly what I just said. So, for each time you attempt the quest and fail it, I will ask you a question. For example, if you unfortunately fail in the first attempt, I will ask you something like, ‘Do you live in Seoul?’, then you can simply answer ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to that question.”

“…”

I never thought he would make this kind of suggestion after I declined his offer.

After agonizing for a moment, I opened my mouth.

“Okay. I will accept it.”

Of course, I did not accept his suggestion because he would find it difficult to find out my identity. Obviously, he would ask me a barrage of questions if I failed the challenge. And he would be able to identify me even with just a few questions instead of 20 questions, assuming I tell the truth.

Of course, Chairman Suh would try to analyze my answers and expressions to verify if my answers were true or false.

The real reason I accepted his offer was because I was full of desire to outfox him this time.

The fact that he made such an offer to me despite my earlier refusal showed that he thought I would never be able to clear this quest, even though he had witnessed me clearing all quests easily until now.

Of course, I had some misgivings deep down.

‘Well, if I really fail, I can disappear anyway.’

I’m willing to accept any nasty or humiliating criticism of me if that happens.

Of course, I intend to clear the quest by all means.

Anyway, right after I accepted his proposal, a message rang.

[Would you like to share the quest ‘Find the Token of the Salimaru bandits who stole the sun’?

-Yes or No.]

First of all, the title of the quest itself was quite unusual because I did not think that the sun was something that somebody could steal.

So, I immediately chose ‘Yes’ because I was curious.

Chairman Suh yelled delightfully deep down because he was convinced I would fail, and he could ask questions every time I failed.

Moreover, he knew that I might not answer his questions truthfully, but he didn’t care. He felt that even if I gave him a false answer, he would get some clues about my real-life identity.

In other words, he was so desperate to find even the slightest clue or tip about my identity.
