The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player
Chapter 164: A Global Public Topic (2)He could get more details from the prophet, Ryu Min.
‘He should be coming soon……’
Just then, a knock sounded and the door to the CEO’s office opened.
To his surprise, the person who entered was not Ryu Min.
It was a blonde Caucasian woman, Christine.
“You’re here, Christine.”
“I’m sorry for dropping by so suddenly.”
“Haha, what’s there to be sorry about? You’re not anyone, you’re my lover. It’s always good to see each other more often, right?”
Ma Kyung-rok always put on a friendly smile in front of Christine.
Christine, unaware of his guarded stance, simply fell for it.
“You know why I came, don’t you?”
“Of course. It’s the meeting day today, so I was expecting you. Would you like some coffee?”
“That sounds good.”
Ma Kyung-rok went to the pantry to make coffee and engaged in various conversations with Christine.
Talk about the weather, any discomfort she experienced on her way here, how her father was doing—typical conversation.
Or, how high her level was, whether the 10th round was tough, and how miraculous the prophecies seemed—typical player talk.
The sweetness expected of a typical couple was nowhere to be found in their conversation.
During this, Ma Kyung-rok received a call from a subordinate.
“Ah, really? Understood.”
“What’s that about?”
“He’s here.”
“Ah.”
Ma Kyung-rok got up from his seat and went outside to prepare to meet him.
Shortly thereafter, a short man entered the office.
The prophet.
He was the reason Christine had come to Korea.
“Mr. Ma, hello.”
“Major shareholder, have you arrived?”
Ryu Min greeted and then noticed Christine standing next to him.
“Your fiancée is here too?”
“Hello, Mr. Ryu Min.”
“Hello, Christine.”
“It’s good to see you remember my name.”
“Of course. I know why you came.”
Christine looked at Ma Kyung-rok with eyes wide as a startled rabbit.
Her gaze seemed to ask if he had already mentioned the reason behind her visit, but Ma Kyung-rok simply shook his head.
“Mr. Ma hasn’t said a word to me. I foresaw it myself. Shall we find a quiet place to talk?”
“That would be good.”
As Ryu Min and Christine prepared to leave, she stopped Ma Kyung-rok from following.
“I’m sorry, but I’ll listen alone.”
“Alright, I’ll wait here. Have a good time.”
“Thank you.”
Ryu Min and Christine sat down on a bench outside the company.
“This place seems good. But why did you tell Mr. Ma not to come?”
“It seems easier to talk that way. Especially since my life is at stake, more people knowing about what will happen might change the future, right?”
“Well, you’re not wrong.”
Ryu Min suddenly asked directly.
“You came to Korea because you’re worried about the 11th round, right?”
“Yes. Exactly. I came to see you, the prophet, for advice.”
“Advice…… I thought I had already told you everything.”
“That’s not how I feel. You know something but you’re keeping it hidden. Who will save me, who will threaten me.”
“……”
“Please, it’s shameless of me, but tell me. You said there are people who don’t like me, who are they exactly?”
“I don’t know. I told you before.”
“I know. But please give me any small clue. You saw the scene, right? It would be better to prevent it if possible. It might help in a crisis.”
“I don’t remember now. I’ve forgotten everything.”
“……”
At that, Christine was at a loss for words.
With Ryu Min remaining evasive, she had no way to proceed.
“What about the person who will save me? You saw their face, right? You remember, right?”
“I know but I can’t tell you.”
“Because it might change the future?”
“You understand well.”
“Could you still tell me? I’ll be careful not to change the future.”
“How can you guarantee that? What if you die? How am I supposed to face Mr. Ma then?”
“……”
“Although you’re curious and anxious, there’s nothing I can do. There’s a limit to the information I can give you.”
“Sigh……”
There was no wall harder than this.
Christine felt frustrated but understood.
It was natural for the prophet’s credibility to be damaged if the future changed.
“I’m sorry. I got too carried away because I was agitated.”
“It’s fine.”
“Since something is going to happen in the next round, I guess I was more sensitive. I apologize again.”
Christine spoke politely and then checked.
“So, there’s nothing I can do except wait to be saved by someone?”
“Yes. For now, that’s best.”
“Sigh……”
“Don’t worry too much, Christine. Everything will be alright.”
Reassured by Ryu Min’s straightforward and warm consolation, Christine was able to alleviate some of her you, prophet. I believe in you.”
“Thank you. Well, since Mr. Ma is waiting, shall we go back up? You should as well hear the prophecy for the 11th round since you’re here.”
“Alright.”
The two got up from the bench and entered the company.
Unaware that someone was glaring at them as if they wished them dead.
