Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[Entry Test]

A white high-rise building in the middle of Seoul.

On the top floor, a sign with stylish handwriting radiated a strong presence.

Among the guilds currently existing in Korea, it is a major guild that ranks among the top ten, and a

super blue-chip guild that will be among the top three guilds in 10 years.

We arrived in front of the White House headquarters building.

“How did you get here?”

The security guard guarding the entrance stopped us and asked.

Perhaps because of their plain clothes, the way they spoke seemed to look down on us.

Instead of answering, I took out Baek Young-hee’s business card from my jacket pocket.

“I was supposed to meet this person today.”

After checking the business card, his expression suddenly changes.

“Excuse me, but your name is….”

“Landlord.”

The security guard heard my name and confirmed it over the radio. He looked at the kid next to me and at me alternately and said.

“I heard you would come alone. “The kid next to me…”

Now that I think about it, I didn’t say that to Baek Young-hee.

“He’s my younger brother.”

“…your younger brother?”

A bodyguard with a confused expression.

It’s not like anyone would see them as brother and sister.

An ordinary-looking Korean man and a foreign kid with red eyes.

To be honest, there is no resemblance whatsoever other than being human.

But in times like these, there was a need to be more shameless.

“Is there a problem? “Do you want to know the secret of our siblings’ birth?”

“Oh no. “It’s not like that, it’s just to verify your identity…”

“I’ll tell you if you want. “That was 10 years ago…”

While I was making fun of the security guard, Baek Young-hee came out from inside the building and called me.

“Mr. Landlord!”

“ah. Here you go.”

When I waved my hand, she walked quickly towards me.

The security guard, who was sweating profusely, moved to the side and we were ushered into the building.

Baek Young-hee also glanced and asked as if she was curious about Lily’s identity.

“Who is the cute kid next to me?”

“He is my half-brother.”

Of course, the seeds are also different. That wasn’t said.

Baek Young-hee’s expression hardened for a moment, but then she smiled awkwardly and said to Lily, “Hello? What is your name?” he asked.

But instead of answering, this little boy ignored Baek Young-hee and looked at me.

“What is this woman?”

“Someone who will give us money.”

Since the conversation was in Gaia, Younghee Baek could not understand what was being said.

Lily said with a frown.

“Upset. “My breasts are too big.”

I tilted my head. Too big? It just looks good.

“hey. In the future, you too…”

“Future?”

“Oh no.”

I turned my head away from the little boy who was staring at me and spoke to Baek Young-hee, who was curious.

“He said it was nice to meet you.”

“…You don’t speak Korean at all?”

“I know at least some simple words.”

The problem is that most of those words are edible.

The three of us got into the elevator.

I spoke to Baek Young-hee with a somewhat serious expression.

“I know it’s going to look weird. My younger brother doesn’t look like me and he can’t speak Korean. “There’s a complicated family story here, so if possible…” As

I trailed off, Baek Young-hee nodded and told me not to worry.

“The principle in our guild is not to interfere with the personal lives of individual superhumans. “As long as there is no damage to the guild.”

“Then that’s it.”

As expected, it would have been better to have the nail firmly driven in like this.

“But…”

Baek Young-hee said, quietly leaning towards me.

“Personally, I want to hear it. “Can you listen to it separately later?”

Anyway, she’s a woman who can’t let her guard down.

I politely declined in my own way.

“I’m a little busy.”

The elevator stopped at the top floor. When we got off the elevator, an attractive middle-aged man was waiting for us.

“…….”

The moment I saw him, I tensed slightly.

Don’t be fooled by his friendly appearance, like a neighborhood guy.

Master of the Whitehouse Guild

One of the first awakeners and one

of the greatest superhumans.

The monster Baek Chang-su.

He smiled brightly and offered to shake my hand.

“Nice to meet you. “This is Baek Chang-su.”

“I am the landlord.”

“Please sit down.”

We sat facing each other. Baek Chang-soo and Baek Young-hee came out side by side and Lily sat on the other side.

Baek Chang-soo spoke first.

“Did you have a hard time finding it since it was your first time visiting?”

“It can’t be. “The building is so big and stands out.”

“Originally, it would have been right for us to come visit you… but the case was so unique.”

“it’s okay. “You can just pretend you came on a field trip in advance.”

“haha. “As your name suggests, you have a great heart.”

We talked very naturally.

His facial expression was armed with fake kindness and a smile, and he acted calmly on the outside.

But we both knew that we weren’t really laughing.

This is a kind of pressure interview.

“I heard about the new contract terms you requested.”

While we were talking calmly, Baek Chang-soo released mana and pressured me with his force.

Ssssssut.

The corners of his mouth gently rose.

“If you beat our guild’s superhuman in the test, they ask you to double your down payment… It was fun.”

Sssssssut.

The momentum became stronger. I was still smiling and facing Baek Chang-soo, but a ray of cold sweat ran down my back.

“Can I take that to mean that you have accepted my conditions?”

Baek Chang-su.

Surely a monster is a monster.

You know nothing about martial arts or magic, but you instinctively use mana like this.

A skill that can only be achieved with natural talent.

If you pressurize your opponent with mana like this, most people will feel intimidated in front of him and will not be able to speak properly.

“Is it really worth it to you?”

If it were 20 years ago, I would have been as frozen as a mouse in front of a cat.

That’s because the difference in rank was overwhelming.

But now is different than then.

Sssssssut.

I raised my mana and resisted Baek Changsu’s momentum.

Skills honed through effort and time, not talent.

I was also able to develop my own ‘momentum’.

I looked directly at Baek Chang-soo and said.

“Let me show you. “My worth.”

“…….”

Baek Chang-soo looked quite surprised. You probably haven’t seen many people resisting their own momentum.

Baek Chang-soo looked at me without saying anything for a while and then spoke to Baek Young-hee next to him.

“Mr. Younghee. Please rewrite the contract.”

Baek Young-hee, who was watching among us, asked back with surprised eyes.

“yes?”

Baek Chang-soo said with a very serious expression.

“I think it will be difficult with the changes I made earlier.”

“Representative Dae. We decided to proceed with the contract as we discussed earlier….”

“Change it to three times the amount, not double it.”

“yes?”

How many people have seen that fox-like Baek Young-hee make such a foolish expression?

Baek Chang-su told his daughter the contents of the contract to be modified.

“If the landlord passes the entrance test, the down payment will be paid three times the original amount.”

“The test can be done up to three times by mutual agreement, and a down payment of 20 billion won is paid upon passing all tests.”

His voice was calm, so it seemed like he was speaking casually, but the content was enormous.

Baek Young-hee opened her eyes and asked back.

“Two hundred billion?”

20 billion was enough money to sign a contract for an average A-level superhuman.

There’s a condition that you have to pass all three tests, but they’re still going to pay that much money to a novice like me?

I’m starting to like this guy more and more.

I grinned and leaned back on the sofa.

“CEO, you’re hot.”

“haha. “Let me.”

As we fought each other, Baek Young-hee looked confused.

However, she is also a professional in the industry. After taking a few deep breaths, I returned to my normal self.

“All right. “I will trust the CEO’s judgment.”

A new contract was drawn up on the spot.

Incredibly unconventional conditions. After carefully checking the contents, I nodded.

“great.”

We got up from our seats.

No matter how good the terms of the contract were, if I didn’t pass the test, it was just a piece of paper.

Baek Chang-su said.

“Let’s go. “Everyone will be waiting.”

***

The sparring room was in the basement.

The 1,000 pyeong space was built with special construction to handle the fighting of superhumans.

There were spaces available to test your skills in various environments, starting from the fighting ring to forests, deserts, and underwater.

Murmur.

Quite a number of people had already gathered there, probably because they had heard the rumor.

Not all of them were superhumans, and most of them were guild officials.

“There are a lot of audiences.”

Baek Chang-soo smiled at my words.

“It’s an event that rarely happens.”

…For some reason, this guy looks the most excited.

When Baek Chang-soo gathered the guild officials together and explained the details of our contract, the murmur grew even louder.

“Oooooh!”

Some people looked curiously and said,

“You don’t look that strong….”

“If you act recklessly, you’ll get in big trouble.”

Some of them had eyes filled with jealousy,

and some even had murderous intent towards me.

I felt like a monkey at the zoo. All kinds of gazes pouring in.

Lily, who was also receiving attention, grabbed my sleeve and said,

“I feel bad….”

“Hang in there. “I’ll buy you chicken afterward.”

“Do you know that chicken is all you need?!”

I said as I placed my hand on the head of the little boy who was pouting his lips as if he was displeased.

“Two.”

“…One is seasoning, right?”

“of course.”

As I was stroking Lily’s head, who had become gentle, Baek Young-hee came up to me and said.

“What did you talk about with your brother?”

“Oh, that’s it…”

Lily shouted from the side in Gaia.

“Boob monster!”

“They say she’s a pretty sister.”

“oh. thank you!”

As I talked to Baek Young-hee, I felt the gaze of envy and jealousy increasing.

At that time, Baek Chang-soo came up and said.

“Landlord. Would you like to warm up?”

“no. “Let’s proceed quickly.”

“Then go over there.”

Baek Chang-soo chose an ordinary terrain as the stage. It seemed like the intention was to look at overall combat power on the most basic map.

“So who is my opponent?”

After a while, one person stepped forward.

“grow.”

A man in his early 20s with bleached blonde hair chewed gum and looked at me crookedly.

Baek Young-hee whispered to me from next to me.

“The name is Hwan Jang-hyuk. Although he is young, he is a member of the guild’s first team. “I woke up six months ago.”

Hwan Jang-hyuk frowned, probably because he was surprised to see the two of us together.

Hwan Jang-hyuk…

Oh, I remember.

This guy was featured in [Rookie of the Month], a corner of a fairly famous superhuman magazine.

He is the same age as me.

I remember lamenting to myself why I was like this while that kid of the same age was doing so well.

When I laughed while recalling old thoughts, Hwan Jang-hyuk got angry.

“hey. “What’s funny?”

But that guy spoke informally when he first met me.

I curled up one corner of my mouth and sarcastically said.

“If you’re curious, look in the mirror. “Then you know why I laughed.”

“Holy shit!”

Baek Chang-su blocked Hwan Jang-hyuk, who was about to run towards me.

He said with a solemn expression.

“We haven’t started testing yet.

“…….”

Hwan Jang-hyuk steps away with a tingle. Baek Chang-soo also warned me.

“Don’t provoke the other person too much.”

I nodded roughly.

After a while, we went up on stage at the same time with Baek Chang-soo in attendance.

“The purpose of this sparring is to test the landlord’s skills. “Please be careful with each other to avoid unnecessary injuries.”

We both nodded half-heartedly.

“What weapons do you two have?”

Hwan Jang-hyuk held up a bladeless sparring sword.

“I will use the sword.”

I took off the Tichtal watch I was wearing on my left hand and wrapped it around my hand like a knuckle.

“This is enough for me.”

Snapping.

Hwan Jang-hyuk must have thought that I was ignoring him, so he gritted his teeth.

Soon Baek Chang-soo came off the stage and we stood facing each other.

Hwan Jang-hyuk spoke only with his mouth movements.

‘I’ll make you an asshole.’

At the same time, the bell rang signaling the start of the entrance exam.

Sigh!

As soon as the bell rang, Hwan Jang-hyuk stepped back and widened the distance.

“I thought they would attack right away, but I was surprised.”

The guy ignored my words and started walking around the stage.

As time passed, the speed gradually increased.

Swish! Swish swish!

I remember seeing that in a magazine too.

This guy’s unique characteristic is [Acceleration],

which is the ability to become faster as he moves without stopping.

He was a guy who rose to the first team by accelerating to the limit while the other team members were buying time and delivering a critical hit to a monster with a single attack.

If I wanted to win against Hwan Jang-hyuk, I had to win before his acceleration ability gained speed.

But I didn’t move.

“Tsk tsk. “It’s over.”

“There is no way now.”

Guild officials were seen clicking their tongues.

Baek Young-hee also had an anxious face, and Baek Chang-soo also seemed somewhat disappointed by my response, which was different from what he expected.

Swish! Swish swish!

Hwan Jang-hyeok’s movements were such that he could no longer follow them with his eyes.

I felt like I was in the middle of a gust of wind.

“It’s awesome!” “It’s awesome!” “It’s awesome!”

Voices came from all directions at the same time. It looks like it’s almost reached maximum acceleration.

I sighed and stretched out my arms.

“I’m bored to death. hey. “Don’t you get dizzy if you spin like that?”

Those few words were enough.

“die!” “die!” “die!”

In a gust of wind, Hwan Jang-hyuk rushed towards me like a bolt of lightning.

Hehehe!

At that moment, I took a half step to the right, turned around, and swung my fist.

Squeak.

The tip of the sword grazed my shoulder. And my fist landed right in Hwan Jang-hyuk’s chin.

-Bah!

Sigh. You’ll just have to eat porridge for a while.

I kicked the unconscious Hwan Jang-hyuk and pushed him to the side.

Then he asked the people who were gaping with their mouths open.

“Who’s next?”
