Chapter 145: To Nigeria (1)
Now that Round 9 has ended.
There are about 650,000 players left worldwide.
According to the calculations that one in five people is trash, there are still 130,000 trash out there in the world.
It means that just because weve dealt with the trash of Player Place, the world hasnt become a safer place.
Players who contribute to the destruction of the world like criminals are like pests.
To exterminate such vermins and to recruit an alchemist, Im heading to Nigeria.
In Nigeria, there is an alchemist of a unique class.
If he can turn him into an ally, it would be of great help in breaking through Round 20.
Its not just about acquiring an alchemist.
There are runes to be gained in the real world, and going there would fulfill the conditions.
Various items can be obtained, and it could raise the brand value of Black Scythe.
Done.
Ryu Min, having packed his carrier bag, stood up from his seat.
Thinking it would take up to a week, he packed clothes and necessities.
Hyung, Hyung!
With a quick knock, the door burst open.
His younger brother looked at Ryu Mins luggage with surprised eyes.
Are, are you leaving already?
Yeah. Ill be back soon.
Ryu Won had heard about the sudden trip the night before, but he hadnt expected him to leave so early in the morning.
Are you really going to Japan?
Yeah. Ive been so tired lately, Im going to take a week-long hot spring trip.
A person whos been a shut-in all of his life suddenly going on a trip?
Naturally, Ryu Won couldnt help but suspect his brother.
Hyung, do you have a girlfriend? If its something like that, just tell me. Theres nothing wrong with going on a trip as a couple.
What are you talking about? Im just going to relax.
Really?
Yeah.
Then take me with you.
Ryu Min slowly shook his head.
Its hard enough keeping one life safe. It could be dangerous if you come along.
Are you really going alone?
I am.
Ryu Won could not ask any more questions.
If his brother says so, he has to believe it.
Im sorry, but Ill be back. Stay well at home until I return. Make sure to eat well.
Dont worry. Delivery food is pretty good these days.
If youre running low on allowance, tell me now.
No need. Just come back safely.
Alright, take care. Im off.
Ryu Won watched his brother, who was pulling his carrier, leave with envious eyes.
Clunk- Thud.
Ryu Wons expression turned gloomy as he watched the door close without taking his eyes off.
I want to go on a hot spring trip too
He murmured softly but understood.
Its still a dangerous world for ordinary people.
Didnt the recent barbecue restaurant incident prove it?
Cant help it. Hyung is right.
He might be envious of his brother, who can go on trips and even to hot springs, but he didnt feel it was unfair.
After all, his brother had fed him while juggling school and being the head of the household.
If you work, you need to recharge.
If it wasnt for Hyung, I wouldnt be living in such a luxurious house.
Just 9 months ago, it was a burden even to order a bowl of jjajangmyeon while living in a shabby one-room apartment.
It wasnt the time to grumble about eating delivery food.
Im grateful, very grateful!
Ryu Won smacked his head, reflecting on himself, and smacked his lips.
Ah, now that I think about it, I want some jjajangmyeon.
I should order it for lunch.
Jjajangmyeon never gets boring, no matter how much you eat.

Upon reaching the parking lot, Yamti was waiting in front of the Lamborghini.
Have you arrived? Bla, no, Mr. Ryu Min?
Youre here? Lets go right away.
The two loaded their luggage into the trunk and set off immediately.
On the way to Incheon Airport.
As they entered the highway, Ryu Min broke the silence.
You asked yesterday why we are going to Nigeria.
Yes.
Nigeria is rife with various crimes. The public enemy, KF, is also stationed there.
KF? Are you referring to that terrorist group?
Thats right. Among those kidnapped by them, theres an alchemist I want to make into an ally. My goal is to rescue that alchemist.
Ryu Min openly shared his objective.
Yamti is essentially a slave who absolutely obeys his words.
There was no reason to keep it a secret.
She would keep the secret even if it meant death.
Ah, so youre taking me with you to use the Rune of Charm on the alchemist.
No. While its true Im taking you because of the Rune of Charm, I wont use it on the alchemist. If possible, I should leave that slot open.
What about after that?
We have to exterminate the trash and build up the reputation of Black Scythe. Thats why I also took on the title of CPFs commander.
If the commander of CPF goes to Nigeria and smashes the public enemy IS organization.
It was obvious that the name Black Scythe would become famous.
Ah, so thats why you needed the police chiefs endorsement? To leave a record of Black Scythes departure. Thats right.
Nigeria is a dangerous country as mentioned.
Its classified as a Level 3 travel advisory due to its poor public safety.
Naturally, they dont let you in for simple tourism purposes.
Unless theres business or another purpose.
But if you can prove youre strong enough to protect yourself?
Entry and exit are possible.
Thats why he moved after obtaining the title of CPFs commander.
To easily pass through immigration.
And to leave a record of Black Scythes visit to Nigeria.
Then, who would guarantee for Black Scythe?
Ive already arranged with the police chief.
Thus, Ryu Min wasnt worried about the departure inspection.
Phew. It sounds like a tough journey.
If you find this tough, it wont do.
Upon arrival at the airport, Ryu Min transformed his appearance.
Gurgling-
As he transformed into Lostyak, Yamtis eyes widened in surprise.
Wow, you even got taller? Its my first time seeing you transform, master.
Forget the admiration, call me Black Scythe from now on.
Yes, Black Scythe.
The two retrieved their luggage and headed for the charter airline counter.
Welcome. Are you here for a flight?
Yes. Heres my ID.
Naturally, Ryu Min presented Lostyaks ID.
He was traveling under the identity of Black Scythe, so identity forgery was essential.
A flight is currently on standby. The destination is confirmed as Nigerias Murtala International Airport Just a moment, please.
After checking something, the staff handed over the tickets.
Confirmed. Here are your tickets. The direct flight to Nigeria will take about 17 hours. Please proceed to the security checkpoint for boarding and passport inspection.
Thank you.
Ryu Min boarded Player Places chairmans private flight for one reason.
To save time with a direct flight.
Usually, you can only go to Nigeria with a transfer, which takes about 25 hours on average.
Rather than wasting so much time in the sky, it was better to take a private flight for a quicker journey.
After checking in their luggage and receiving the tickets, Ryu Min and Yamti went through the boarding process and passport inspection.
Are you going to Nigeria?
Yes.
The immigration officer looked at them disdainfully.
Nigeria is currently a dangerous area. Are you aware?
Its fine. Im the CPF commander. Ive received all the necessary approvals, so please check with the chief of police.
CPFs commander? Just a moment.
The officer left and returned a few minutes later.
Confirmed. The chief of police vouched that you are indeed the CPFs commander. Theres no problem here, so youre both cleared to go.
Is that so?
Heres your passport. Have a pleasant trip.
Ryu Min smiled and passed the checkpoint with Yamti.
Having the backing of the chief of police made it smooth to pass through even dangerous areas.
Shortly after, the two boarded the flight without any wait.
There were only two passengers: Ryu Min and Yamti.
The captains voice came over the speaker.
[Welcome. Im Captain Seo Tae-seok. Our flight will go directly to Lagos, Nigerias largest city, at Murtala International Airport, and it will take a total of 17 hours. I hope you have a comfortable and pleasant flight.]
Ryu Min laid down in the first-class seat, comfortably stretching his legs.
Yamti.
Yes, master.
Try to get some sleep. There wont be time to rest once we arrive.
Okay, I will.
Ryu Min closed his eyes, organizing the tasks to be done in Nigeria in his mind.
Sleep gradually enveloped him.
