The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 82: Round 6 Begins (1)

The person who approached Ryu Min wasnt anyone else but Seo Arin and An Sang-cheol.

Its been a while, Black Scythe, Seo Arin said, her eyes briefly glancing at Min Juri.

But whos this?

I dont think I need to explain, do I?

Ah, well I guess not, Min Juri replied, somewhat uncertainly.

Seo Arins smile, though seemingly in agreement, concealed her true feelings.

Why is he smiling at her and not me? Seo Arin couldnt help but feel a pang of disappointment at the cold reception.

But what do you want from me?

Ah, well

Ryu Min acted as if he didnt know the reason, even though he did.

They probably came because I forecasted as a prophet that Black Scythe would party with them.

On the other hand, Seo Arin and An Sang-cheol were deliberating on how to respond. Since they couldnt openly discuss the prophecy, they chose their words carefully.

After a moment of hesitation, An Sang-cheol finally spoke up, Uh, Black Scythe. Honestly, we want to party with you.

Party? With me?

Yes. Well just be in the way, but we promise well do our best not to cause any trouble for you, Black Scythe.

Seo Arin and An Sang-cheol were sincere in their request. The prophecy had stated that Black Scythe needed to join their party to have an easier time with Round 6, and they couldnt afford to back down now.

Ryu Min pretended to ponder the request, tapping his chin. In reality, their presence in the party was inconsequential. Whether they joined or not made little difference since there were plenty of eager volunteers.

But what will I gain if I let these two join?

Ryu Min thought of the potential benefits, with An Sang-cheol reporting this development and Ma Kyung-rok viewing Black Scythe more favorably.

It wouldnt hurt to build a positive image for the future.

Though he had already made up his mind, Ryu Min pretended to hesitate, making it an intense situation for those watching.

Growing impatient, An Sang-cheol made a proposal, We wont ask to join the party for free. I have information about Round 6. If you let us join the party, Im willing to share the information

I dont need it.

What youre trying to share with me is what I told you, Ryu Min thought but didnt reveal.

Ahn Sangcheol looked puzzled, unaware of this fact.

Why dont you need it? Wouldnt it be helpful to know how to pass Round 6 in advance?

Ill strategize in my own way. I dont rely on unreliable information.

But but

Seeing An Sang-cheols flustered state, Ryu Min couldnt resist playing a little prank.

But where did you get that information?

Huh? Uh, what information are you talking about?

The information about Round 6 that you just mentioned. Whos the source?

An Sang-cheol was caught off guard, unsure how to respond. Revealing the existence of the prophet would put them at risk, so he hesitated.

Cant you say it? If you do, Ill let you join the party.

Uh, well

Reluctantly, An Sangcheol lowered his head.

I-Im sorry.

Surprisingly, it was difficult for An Sangcheol to speak up.

He wont reveal the existence of the prophet.

Of course, he didnt want to mention it to avoid Ma Kyungroks wrath, but it didnt bother him much. An Sang-cheol, on the other hand, was crestfallen.

Darn it, I couldnt party with Black Scythe as planned.

How will he report this to the CEO?

Then, unexpectedly, Ryu Min made a decision.

Ill let you join the party.

Huh, you will?

Seo Arin and An Sang-cheols eyes widened in surprise.

Why?

I thought it might be trustworthy since you didnt reveal the source of the information. I dont like filthy rats.

Ah

Realizing that exposing the prophets existence could have backfired, An Sang-cheol breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank you! Thank you, Black Scythe!

Thank you, Black Scythe.

The two expressed their gratitude and turned to Min Juri. It seemed they were still curious about her relationship with Ryu Min.

As for her, shes a buffer in a contract relationship with me.

A contract relationship? A buffer?

How did they meet up?

They had many questions, but they decided to inquire about the contract first.

If its a contract relationship

Yes, there is such a thing.

Their curiosity subsided. It seemed Ryu Min wouldnt disclose more details, even if they asked.

Seo Arin shifted her gaze and extended her hand toward Min Juri.

Hello, Im Seo Arin. Its a pleasure to meet you.

Oh, yes Im Min Juri. By any chance, are you the famous Seo Arin? Did you just change your appearance?

No, this is my real face.

Oh? So, youre the actress Seo Arin who starred in Oh My Destiny, right?

Yes, thats me, Seo Arin.

Really? I was curious, given your identical face and name!

Min Juri was ecstatic, meeting a TV celebrity in person was truly fascinating.

Oh, my god, Im a huge fan of yours! My father adores the drama you were in! Hes a massive Seo Arin actress fan!

Oh, really? Thank you for your kind words.

Seo Arin nodded politely. While Min Juri continued with excitement, An Sang-cheol cast a glance at Ryu Min.

Um Are you sure its okay not to share information about Round 6 with you?

I dont need it. Dont bother offering it to me. I dont want to owe you anything.

Ah, in that case

An Sang-cheol felt a tinge of disappointment as Black Scythe drew a clear line.

I was planning to provide information in exchange

But if he didnt want it, there was nothing to be done.

Maybe I should discreetly advise him if he deviates from the provided information during the quest.

When Ryu Min shared the information, he had considered offering a bit of assistance to make the prophecy come true; that if they didnt follow his words, but it seemed unnecessary now.
