Chapter 70
“You look very tired lately. First of all, take this.”
I took the elixirs in the cube that I brought to share with my people.
The one I gave to Haru was ‘Mermaid’s Tears’, which was good for fatigue recovery and stress relief.
It was a small bottle that seemed to be used for perfume samples, but the fact that one bottle cost 10 million was probably convincing if you felt its effect once.
The ability values that increased permanently at the first intake were second to none.
“This bottle is… Mermaid’s Tears, isn’t it?”
“I thought it would be better for you to grow physically and skillfully as you are also the head of a club, so I prepared it. I hope you don’t refuse and accept it.”
In the academy, the closest thing to law and money was ‘power’.
And that was something that Haru, who was the party concerned, knew better than anyone else.
So this elixir was more necessary for Haru than me.
Now it was nothing more than a fatigue recovery agent for me.
“Thank you.”
She seemed to have noticed my mind and quietly reached out her hands and took the bottle I handed her.
“I just remembered, I should also share some with the other Familia kids. Do you have any plans for the future?”
When I asked as I got up from my seat, she bowed her head and said.
“I have a new trading partner, so I think I’ll be busy from now on. I’m sorry I can’t follow you.”
“Don’t be sorry.”
I couldn’t force her to come with me when she said she had to work.
More than anything, I was able to raise the main quest by one step thanks to her.
【Main Story】
[You have created a new wind in the academy! By creating a new club, you will write your own new history! Lead your club successfully and get promoted to Silver Club!]
[Achievement Conditions: Complete 5 Club Requests!]
[Request Achievement Count: 2 / 5]
[※Achievement rewards may vary depending on the results.]
Three more…
The simple requests at the beginning didn’t even count as achievement counts, and it seemed that the system also had its own standards.
“Thank you for your work today. Please stop by the ‘International Trade Club’ later.”
“I’ll do that.”
After Haru left my office, I found Se-ah eating snacks in the lounge along with Isheri.
She was sucking her fingers and saw me and got up from her seat. Then crumbs stuck to her clothes fell to the ground.
“Are you going to clean this up?”
“Of course.”
When she flicked her fingers, the snack crumbs disappeared in an instant. It seemed that she used space magic to clean up all the trash.
She seems to have learned something weird from ji-hyun.
“You’re good at this…”
“Hehe, I have siblings at home, so I’m good at this. But what are you doing here?”
“I got a lot of gifts recently. I came here to share some of them with you.”
As I said that, I handed Isheri a box.
“What is this?”
“It’s a golden walnut. I thought you might need it.”
As the ‘Ranger Club’ disappeared, they had a hard time getting ingredients. I happened to receive it as a gift. There are about 10 in it, so I thought it would be more helpful for recipe development.
Drool.
Tears fell down Isheri’s cheeks.
“Eugene…”
“No, why are you crying?”
“Boss! I think I did really well becoming a Familia subordinate!”
And then she suddenly started crying.
“No, calm down…”
“Waaaaaaah!!”
Oh my god.
Fortunately, other members came over and started to resolve the situation as they saw her.
“I’ll definitely succeed in making ‘Golden Walnut Pie’! The first food is for Eugene!”
She shouted at me as she was dragged away by the members holding her by both arms.
Wow, this is it.
I returned to my office while staring blankly at Isheri appearance.
Man, rolling up your sleeves is exhilarating.

That night.
I was sitting in my father’s study, waiting for him to come, while exchanging messages with the Familia members.
[Jin-woo: I’m hospitalized lololol euklol]
[Se-ah: Huh? What the hell did you do again?]
[Jin-woo: No, I was really stabbed by a knife because I shouldn’t be afraid of getting stabbed. What kind of mentor would really stabs his mentee with a knife lolololololol]
[Me: Did you really get stabbed with a knife?]
[Jin-woo: He stabbed me right in the thigh without mercy, but the funny thing is that he stabbed me avoiding the blood vessels and important places, so I can walk tomorrow lololol I want to escape lollollollol]
…Considering Han Ye-eun’s personality, who was Jin-woo’s mentor, he was a person who could do that and more.
Poor guy.
[Se-ah: But why isn’t Young-jae contactable? He didn’t say a word all day.]
[Jin-woo: He doesn’t even answer the phone. Oh, 1 is gone. Young-ha~ Young-jae come quickly.]
[Young-jae: Just woke up.]
[Se-ah: What? Did you sleep until now? Wow, you’re awesome.]
[Young-jae: I fainted at dawn and just woke up.]
[Se-ah: Ah… sorry]
[Jin-woo: Why did you faint? Did you get stabbed too?]
[Young-jae: I didn’t get stabbed, but I got hit by a fireball.]
[Jin-woo: Euklol fireball lololol]
[Se-ah: lolololololol I only got hit by instructor Ji-hyun fist. I’m the best lolololol]
[Young-aje: Instructor Ji-hyun fist is the best honey these days lolololol]
[Jin-woo: rlollollol]
…The kids seemed to be happily growing up, which was a relief.
As for me, I learned how to move Aura in one day and caught a villain, so I was resting comfortably.
There was no point in telling them this story, as it would only kill their motivation, so I decided to stay quiet.
Even so, getting stabbed was awesome, really.
As I laughed while looking at the messages, I heard footsteps getting closer and closer outside.
“Are you here father?”
It was my father and Parnello.
The faces of the two looked more exhausted than usual.
“Your clothes suit you very well. I’m glad, haha.”
Still, as soon as he saw me, my father brightened his face and tried to show a bright expression.
“Eugene, have you seen the news lately?”
My father asked me as he sat down and lit a cigarette.
“The news?”
“Yes, the news that five villains escaped from Niflheim.”
“Yes, I saw it on TV.”
As I nodded and answered, my father gestured to Parnerlo to speak instead, and Parnerlo nodded and continued to explain.
“Our informant from Corleone who was imprisoned in Niflheim also escaped, but it seems that the villain alliance found out that he was cooperating with us.”
…One of the escaped villains was a Corleone informant?
Sure enough, in the game, there were only four out of five escaped villains who had capture quests.
The other one was never caught.
And that villain’s name was…
“We have to retrieve Rate, who was our informant and since this mission is top secret, it will be difficult for many people to accompany us.”
Rate, a villain who could turn into a rat and control other rats.
She had not committed any serious crimes, but she was sentenced to 30 years in prison for leaking state secrets. No wonder she seemed suspicious but it was because she belonged to Corleone.
I felt my heart pounding as I learned new information again.
“So do I have to retrieve her alone?”
My father shook his head at that.
“No, Parnello will accompany you on this mission. However, since the matter is serious, Parnello will have command and you will go as Parnerlo’s assistant.”
Parnerlo’s participation meant that it was a very serious matter.
“It’s an extension of the successor class.”
“That’s right. I hope you learn a lot from Parnello during the mission and you are also qualified as a hitman.”
As my father said, there would be a lot to learn from going on a mission with Parnello.
Then let me ask a little more about the mission.
“Do you have any information on who is chasing Rate?”
Parnello answered that question.
“Two of the four escaped villains: Blanca and Jackal.”
…They are the ones who specialize in tracking and hunting.
Blanca and Jackal were villains who made assassination requests as their business.
Blanca was a villain who could turn into a werewolf, and Jackal was a villain who specialized in using a bow, which was virtually no different from a ranger.
“They seem to have made up their minds.”
They seemed to have set Rate as a target that they had to catch, considering her a traitor.
“According to the last information Rate sent, she is hiding in an abandoned warehouse in the factory complex in Gunsan. I have called a helicopter outside, so you can leave right away.”
As I heard my father’s words, I bowed my head.
“I accept your command.”
“Yes, be careful and come back.”
My father got up from his seat and patted my shoulder.
I also knew that this mission was difficult.
In the original work, Parnello failed to secure Rate. However, even so, I accepted the mission without any hesitation because I was added to this mission.
If Parnello was alone, I might not know, but I was confident that he could finish this mission perfectly with me.
I left the study and headed to the garden of the mansion where the helicopter was waiting with Parnello.
“Parnello.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Is Rate holding information that is so precious that she must be kept alive?”
It was very important to check whether he had to be kept alive before going on the mission since the moment I took on the mission, I had to succeed.
“I don’t know much about that information either… But Don said that her information would be a weapon to prepare for the threats that will come to Korea as well as Corleone.”
“I see.”
That means, if possible, she must be brought back alive.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
As soon as he said that, the helicopter flew away from Corleone’s mansion.
