Regressor Takes Everything

At Kang Yoo-sik's declaration, the eyes of those present at the venue gathered. The amount that had risen step by step was called up to five times at once. In fact, it was as if he had declared that he would take this item himself.

“55 billion came out. Is there anyone who will bid more?” In response to the moderator's question, the bidders who had just been bidding pondered for a moment then shook their heads and did not raise their hands. No matter how much potential it had, it was an ability that was only an E-class hunter.

This was because it was too much of a gamble, and overspending in terms of the cost of raising it and the possibility of really making it big. When no one raised a hand, the moderator called out the bids and counted the counters, shouted all three times, and then roared. “Brand name Escar. 55 billion has been won!”

At the shout of the emcee, the people around him clapped courteously, and at the same time, Kang Yoo-sik felt some eyes. Displeasure over the loss of an item of interest. Interest in unconventional moves. In addition to this, there were the absurd gazes felt from Ahn Seol-ha’s side and right next to him.

Since there had been no talk in advance, Kang Yoo-sik seemed quite embarrassed, but he still put on a calm expression. ‘It was fine as long as there were no problems.’

It didn’t matter because it wouldn’t change anything from the original plan. From there, Kang Yoo-sik Kang glared at Escar standing on stage with burning eyes. “… … .”

Escar, who met his gaze, also looked at him with fierce eyes. ‘Look at that bastard….’

He was not sure about what happened before the return, but seeing that look in my eyes made him even angrier. However, Kang Yoo-sik continued to look at him.

As the attendant took Escar backstage, the moderator spoke once more. “Then let’s proceed with the next auction. This item….” The moderator held an auction for the next item, and an attendant approached Kang Yoo-sik and nodded. “How would you like to receive the product?”

"I'll pick it up when I get back."

"All right. When it's decided, please call me then….”

With that, the attendant nodded and left for another seat, and Lucia asked after confirming that the attention around her was scattered. “Why did you suddenly bid?”

“Ah. That is….”

Although it had a few personal feelings mixed, since money was money, Kang Yoo-sik also argued about the gains and losses of various interests. It was to easily build a debt relationship by saving someone from this gutter-like situation. In addition to this, it was also to collect the skills that Escar, who later became a catastrophe, used to destroy the city center.

“I think I'm too precious a child to fall into a demon. I did it without even knowing.”

However, since he couldn't say it in full, Kang Yoo-sik brought up a suitable reason and attached it, and Lucia looked at him with a slightly unexpected expression. “Was he such a brilliant kid?”

"Yes. Perhaps… they can become an S-class Hunter too?”

She became a disaster-class monster and blew up the city, so if she stayed as a human, she might have aimed well at an S-class hunter. Fiore, who was listening to Kang Yoo-sik's response, made a slightly admiring expression. “Huh. Is that enough?”

“At least that’s how it seems to me.”

“To figure that out in such a short amount of time… Your eyes are also great.”

Fiore never thought Kang Yoo-sik's judgment was wrong.. “Hmm. Now I have to look at the situation, so please wait for my response. If you talk to people around you, they will have no choice but to accept it roughly.”

"I know."

“So please, do just that.” The three of them, who had decided to wait until the opportunity came, looked at the auction that naturally followed. Among the items on the auction, there were those who kept silent like Escar and those who showed off their power.

Since this was a transfer market that used the mask of an auction in the first place, it was actively appealing to raise the ransom. However, unlike that gesture, the atmosphere did not heat up so much, and the moderator, who had been conducting the auction for some time, eventually opened his mouth. “We will conduct the auction again after a 30-minute break.”

The head bowed host then stepped back from the stage, and voices could be heard from everywhere as the atmosphere in the venue changed. “All the guys who appear this time all act the same.”

“It can’t be helped because it opened earlier than the original cycle.”

“I still have work in Korea… I don't know what they were thinking of holding it in such a hurry.”

They just couldn’t understand Walpurgis Night was held when the goods weren't properly prepared. Kang Yoo-sik, who overheard it, also looked around with a strange expression. ‘It's about time I took it out….’

If Walpurgis Night ended like this, the stock price would fall even further. However, there was still no event that could possibly break the situation. When will it come out?

Suddenly, Yoo-sik noticed a subtle air drifting around him. ‘…Why are all the big guys so quiet? It's like they’ve heard something beforehand.’

At this, he narrowed his eyes upon witnessing that mysterious atmosphere. There came the sound of footsteps coming from the stage. The eyes of everyone in the venue naturally headed there, and soon opened their eyes wide.

Waved violet hair that hung down to her waist. The dress was a little darker than the hair, but the area was small, revealing fair skin.

“Huh….”

“Huh….”

A few people who saw it admired or breathed in, and some even grabbed their bodies. At least, each organization sent out demons who were good at controlling their desires, so it ended at this level.

“Ah—” The woman standing in front of the microphone gave out a light voice, and the air inside the venue turned sweet. A change that took place even though there was no separate magical power.

“I- That person… Why…?”

“…Dangerous.”

Lucia, who had been overwhelmed until now, struggled to open her mouth, and Fiore frowned. Although they were talking with displeasure, the two of them had faint goodwill in their eyes. Perhaps it was because he was so emotionally fluctuated that he deliberately raised his hostility. "She… No, don't try to be conscious of that demon. As far as possible, keep her out of sight and consciously shake off the temptations.”

"I know….”

“Make sure to remember.” Kang Yoo-sik, who confirmed that the two were somewhat stable, turned his gaze forward again. “On behalf of our state, I would like to express my gratitude to all the distinguished guests who participated in today’s Walpurgis Night.”

The soft voice of the woman standing on the stage spread out around her, and Kang Yoo-sik frowned. ‘It's still…’

Her throbbing breasts were quite distracting, despite having gotten used to it from meeting her a few times before her return. Kang Yoo-sik, in her intense presence, didn't look at her on purpose, but looked at her gray horns above her ears, stretching towards the sky. Then, the trigger she desperately carved before her return was activated, and as her heart sank, the memory map came to mind naturally.

(Beatrice)

(Disaster-Class Demon)

(The Witch of Delusion)

(Apostle)

She was one of the two apostles who oversaw Walpurgis Night and led the revelation of the Fallen Heaven. In addition to this, she was the representative of the recruitment faction who wanted to transform Kang Yoo-sik into her demon. Beatrice, a catastrophic-level demon, had appeared in the venue.

“The reason I am standing in front of you so suddenly is to tell you about a special event that will be held today on Walpurgis Night.”

It was a sudden announcement, so there was bound to be a buzz around, but inside the venue, only Beatrice's voice could be heard. This was because those of intermediate level were swept away by Beatrice's presence, and those of a certain size already knew about it. “As you all know, we always carry the holy relic ‘Aaron Hebrit’ with us on Walpurgis Night in preparation for an unforeseen situation.”

At this, Kang Yoo-sik's eyes flashed at Beatrice's explanation. Aaron Hebrew.

Although it was grandiosely called a holy relic, it was actually an S-class equipment that looked like a fancy box, and the effect was considerable. When the box was opened, the power called ‘covenant' stored inside was eventually released, and it was an item that could subdue even the strong, such as disaster-class demons.

‘It’s actually a completely different power, though.’ Kang Yoo-sik, recalling the real effect of Aaron Hebrew, smiled quietly, and Beatrice continued. “But on this Walpurgis Night, the holy relic we recently recovered. We are planning to specially release ‘Corona Perea’.”

“Corona Perea?”

“What the hell is that….”

Those who were overwhelmed by Beatrice muttered with puzzled expressions as if they were quite surprised by the story of the new holy relic. Kang Yoo-sik’s eyes also widened. ‘That, that has already been excavated?’

Corona Perea. He had seen it before returning to S-class equipment with the appearance of a crown. Another apostle from the Revelation of the Fallen Heaven. It was because he wore Corona Perea for the next 13 years and made Britain a mess with its help.

‘I heard that it was obtained not long before the incident….’

It may be that the rumor had been misrepresented, or the future may have changed due to his own actions. While Yoo-sik was lost in thought at the unexpected appearance of a new object, Beatrice smiled slightly. “All auctions are underway and will be showcased before the closing ceremony, so please enjoy tonight….”

With that, she lowered her head slightly and went straight down the stage. Almost immediately, the atmosphere in the venue heated up. The smile she showed at the end and their desire for the new relic had caused quite a stir.

‘Indeed. Did that just happen…?’

Kang Yoo-sik, who saw the greedy eyes beyond the mask, quickly realized the purpose of the Walpurgis Night. To show off their power by revealing a new relic? Such lukewarm behavior could not possibly bring back the falling share price. That was why the revelation of Tacheon challenged those who were undermining them by using the new holy relic as a ‘bait'.

‘If you can take it, you should take it.’

Originally, there were frequent attempts to seize the Aaron Hebrew during the Walpurgis Night, but all of them failed. Other forces did not invest more than necessary, but it was because the power of the revelation of the fall was formidable. But here, one more holy relic that might be equal to Aaron Hebrew had been added, and that was known in advance.

Those who were greedy would have no choice but to make up their minds and attempt to seize it, and the revelation of Fallen Heaven was to show that they were still alive by smashing the attempt from the front.

‘It’s not bad.’ No matter what the supply chain was, military power would continue to be the biggest factor in this world after all. The reason why the evaluation fell this time was because the young ‘cadet' was struck down by the enemy commanded by the enemy. And so, in order to raise the stock price again, it would be the fastest to show their strength.

‘Hmm. how to go about this…’

The original purpose was one Aaron Hebrew, but Corona Perea was also not a failing item when comparing his performance with it before regressing. The problem was the increased security as the number of relics had now increased to two.

‘If it penetrates that far and both are robbed, your reputation will suffer greatly.’

There was no change in breaking through the guards and stealing things. It was because there was no place that could not possibly be penetrated if it was Kang Yoo-sik who decided to do so.

However, if he were to break through all the guards and steal both the relics, it would be harder than expected. ‘I have the choice to, but it will be difficult if the event goes bankrupt….’

In addition, it was quite difficult to deal with the fact that the revelation of the Fallen was destroyed and absorbed, and non-existent ones had come out and gained power. When Kang Yoo-sik was thinking about what to do with this…

“These are the first people to come.”

There came a tickling voice from behind. There was tension in the eyes of Lucia and Fiore looking back. Realizing who was approaching, Yoo-sik took a deep breath and looked back. A strong presence, as if the color around the flower has changed in an instant.

He tried to be as conscious of the horns as possible, but as the distance got closer, her face naturally caught his eye. Violet hair and dull blue eyes. A soft smile bloomed on her lips, enough to feel benevolence, but her eyes never smiled. Kang Yoo-sik lowered his head at the alluring and eerie appearance that he did not want to get close to.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Beatrice. My name is Tommaso of Cosa Nostra.”

It was a proper greeting with a pseudonym. Even though Beatrice was right in front of his eyes, Kang Yoo-sik took advantage of his experience before returning and handled it neatly without hesitating. And Beatrice, who saw that, looked at him slightly unexpectedly, then put on an interesting expression.

“…That's a nice mask. It feels like a good match for you.”

"I appreciate your compliment."

“Whoops. Can I know the names of the people behind you?”

In response to Beatrice's question, Lucia and Fiore also introduced themselves, and she smiled as they finished. “It makes me happy to see you enjoying the party like this. If you need anything, please tell the attendants around you. Then…”

Beatrice made herself seem as if she was about to leave. In a different situation than before her return, Kang Yoo-sik's eyes slightly frowned. ‘Is it because her creditor is not known?’

Suddenly, Beatrice's hand slipped out in front of Kang Yoo-sik, and her murky blue eyes shone eerily. What she asked for was simple. For him to kiss her on the back of her own hand. Since she had been beaten by Lucia a few times, she immediately recognized it, but the problem was that this was Beatrice. "Unlike usual, she’s being mischievous…”

"Does that mean he's that special?"

“It was definitely different when he entered.”

People who were behind the chairman, who had been secretly watching Kang Yoo-sik, looked at him with interesting expressions. Walpurgis Night had many unspoken rules, some of which were a little unusual. ‘Beatrice’s request for skinship is a guest order.’

What if she was really determined and wants to bewitch someone? In most cases, even those specially selected from each organization could not stand it and ran out of control. So in this case, there were only three things that happened. Either the person would refuse and get kicked out of the party, or they react and cause a runaway, get the compensation money, and then get dragged out. And finally…

“It is an honor.” To endure it and be recognized as a VIP.

Kang Yoo-sik, who gently held Beatrice's outstretched hand, gracefully bowed her body, remembering the movement Lucia had shown her. Then, lightly kissing her lips on the back of her pure white hand, she lifted her head and met Beatrice's eyes. “Have a peaceful night.”

“… … .” Beatrice's eyes widened at Kang Yoo-sik's relaxed greeting, and the people watching around her also made shocked expressions. It wasn't that there weren't people who endured Beatrice's skinship, but all of them had a hard time, such as the color of their faces changing or their bodies suppressed by the straitjacket transforming.

However, Kang Yoo-sik, far from having a hard time, responded to Beatrice's request with a smile!

‘What the hell is he doing?'

When everyone was looking at Kang Yoo-sik with nervous expressions…

“Puff.” Beatrice burst into a small laugh. It was not a rare look on the outside, but the expressions of those who saw that smile hardened.

It was not only her mouth but her eyes as well, a perfect smile that Beatrice rarely exhibited. The magical energy flowing from it shook the hearts of the viewers.

“Keugh….”

“Damn it….”

A few people who had reached the limit ran out of the venue as if they were running away, and Kang Yoo-sik still looked at her casually. Beatrice, who burst into laughter again at his appearance, took her hand back and looked at him with interest. “You are a fun person. Are you knowledgeable about the opposite sex?”

“To say it directly, I am, a little bit.”

It was not said in a very good way, but he was not wrong anyway. At Kang Yoo-sik's answer, Beatrice smiled seductively.

“Don’t you find me attractive?”

It was a question that would have made other people's faces would have turned red, but Kang Yoo-sik answered calmly. “It’s because I care about the heart rather than the appearance. She is beautiful, of course, but not to the point of forgetting proper manners.”

Beatrice smiled at Kang Yoo-sik's clever answer. “It seems to see me as something else entirely.”

She appeared to have noticed something. Kang Yoo-sik did not flinch and answered naturally. “Because my motto is to look at women like stones… Maybe that's why you felt that way."

In fact, it was not a metaphor, but the opinion of the real Kang Yoo-sik. ‘It’s a violet-colored stone that speaks and shows expressions. What a strange sight…’

Seeing Kang Yoo-sik’s relaxed expression from beginning to end, Beatrice’s eyes changed with interest, and she raised the corner of her mouth. “I’d like to hear more about that motto… Will it be fine to continue speaking with you for a moment?”

“Huh….”

“I would like to speak with you alone….”

Whenever Walpurgis Night opened, Beatrice might offer a private meeting, which was rare enough to be counted on one hand. Everyone looked surprised that a first-time visitor had been given an offer, and Kang Yoo-sik, who had been waiting for this moment, smiled. “Let’s go.”

This was the opportunity he had been waiting for all night.
