The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 174: The Start Of 11th Round (1)

The day before the 11th round began, Ryu Min met with Min Juri.

“What is it that you wanted to give me?”

“Here, this.”

When Ryu Min handed over a rather large ringcase, Min Juri’s eyes widened like a rabbit’s.

“W-what is this?”

“Open it.”

Min Juri opened the case with a pounding heart, and she couldn’t help but gasp.

A large, 5-carat diamond was shimmering brilliantly.

Thump thump thump thump-

-What should I say? I’m not ready for this!

Seeing her obvious misunderstanding, Ryu Min quickly set things straight.

“Don’t get the wrong idea. I got this as a gift from an acquaintance, but I don’t need it, so I’m giving it to you.”

“You don’t need this?”

“What would a guy do with a jewel? You can sell it or use it however you like.”

“How much is it worth?”

“The appraisal said 300 million won.”

“Th-three hundred million?”

“It could be more.”

“…….”

Min Juri couldn’t even think of closing her mouth.

“Why are you giving this to me?”

“I told you, I don’t need it.”

“You could sell it.”

“Too much hassle. Even if I sell it, it’s just pocket change for me.”

“You know that sounded really arrogant just now, right?”

“But it’s true.”

The company owned by Ma Kyung-rok, which had a market cap of 900 billion won, had doubled in value in just eight months.

Naturally, Ryu Min’s investments had also doubled.

Effectively, he now possessed wealth close to 600 billion won.

In that context, what use was 300 million won to him?

“It’s literally pocket change to me. But it’s not the same for you, right? It’s more useful for someone who needs it.”

“But…….”

“Use it to help your father and be a good daughter. The convenience store business isn’t doing well these days, is it?”

“That’s true, but you didn’t have to do this. I already owe you a lot.”

“Don’t think of it as a debt. Friends help each other out. If it feels too burdensome, just think of it as a gift.”

“Who gives a gift worth 300 million won?”

“Rich people do.”

“…….”

He wouldn’t back down or yield an inch.

Min Juri was left wondering how to refuse him.

“Just say thank you. No need to feel burdened.”

“I really don’t need this kind of help…….”

Though she said that, Min Juri was tempted.

She worked at the convenience store with her father, but sales were declining day by day.

She even had to confess to her father that she had used up the 10 million won she got from Ryu Min on living expenses and had to take out a loan.

Just the other day, she was considering selling her equipment to raise some quick cash.

In this desperate situation, the jewel was an irresistible temptation.

“Really…… Can I have this?”

“Yes.”

“Thank you……. But I’m not just taking it. I’m borrowing it. I’ll pay you back with interest.”

“Sure. Do that.”

Min Juri took the diamond and hugged it to her chest, thinking of her gratitude towards Ryu Min.

“Really, thank you. But let’s make one thing clear.”

“What?”

“I’m naturally a good daughter, you know?”

November 1st, 00:00:00.

The time to travel to the otherworld was always precise.

At the stroke of midnight on the first of every month, one would collapse into a deep sleep.

Though the mind would be wandering the meadows of the otherworld.

[Hello! 690 humans? For once, all of you have returned without anyone dying?]

No one died?

It made sense.

‘Most of them are Player Haven members.’

Out of 690 people, 489 were remaining Player Haven members.

Player Haven members were chosen through a rigorous character test, so there was no internal fighting.

‘It seems the other 201 didn’t fight either.’

It might be thanks to the CPF unit led by Black Scythe that no one committed any crimes in October.

Seo Arin’s CPF public service ads also seemed to help.

‘Anyone with half a brain would know. With so few people, fighting each other would only cause loss.’

The more murders committed, the fewer achievement slots available.

It would just narrow the gap for one’s own advancement.

[Before explaining the 11th round, since there are fewer people, we need to merge the zones first, right?]

As the angel flapped its wings, the ground rumbled and the meadows were restructured.

By now, it was already the fourth zone merge, so people weren’t as shocked as before.

It was only when the merge was complete that they were taken aback.

[Are you surprised by the increase in people? That’s because we merged all zones worldwide.]

“A-all zones?”
