Chapter 198
When you think about it, Lee Shin was always certain of everything.
It wasn’t some irresponsible line from a self-help book like “If you truly wish for it, it will come true.” He truly believed in the results.
And he made them happen.
— “I’m going to build a big guild! A really, really big one!!”
The near-dead Mir Guild had its oxygen mask removed, devoured Yeongdo, and was now eyeing Busan.
Е̇ n̊ú m̀ å .i d̆
The guild was becoming a city, and the city was becoming a guild.
— “And I’ll fill it with people I love, through and through. Big family!”

He brought in the Mountain King whom no one expected, and turned Park Su-bin — who used to crawl on the floor — into a world-class prospect.
Yu Ri-ra, Kim Yushin, Baek Yeon-woo, Lee Hye-jeong, Kang Malsuk, the Princess… all of them were brought in by Lee Shin.
— “I’ll be loved by as many people as possible. Because LOVE multiplies!”
The youngest-ever CEO.
Ё n̆ uṁ а̀. і̄ ď
The most handsome CEO ever.
The most attractive CEO, as selected by Forbes.
The most beloved CEO in league history.
And so—

— “I’ll become the emperor of an empire no one can challenge, and strut around like this. Long live His Majesty the Emperor!”
And so, Lee Shin became emperor.
Еn̂ ūm ӓ . іd̀
He made every word he ever spoke come true.
And there’s something he always said like a habit:
— “Dong-ha hyung is my right hand. As you can see, I’m right-handed, so what does that make you? My number two!”
Lee Shin endlessly trusted Chae Dong-ha, calling him an SS-class genius deputy director.
Even Dong-ha himself questioned it — what did Lee Shin see in him to trust him that much?
— “You’re the one who’s been with me the most. What more do I need?”

They spent the most time together, watched each other the closest, and shared the most thoughts.
And that alone proved Dong-ha’s competence. Because—
— “If you couldn’t keep up with my pace, do you think you’d be drinking with me right now? Do I look like the kind of guy who’s that soft?”
Lee Shin wasn’t the kind of CEO who kept incompetent people around out of sentimentality.
If Dong-ha had truly been less capable than expected, Lee Shin would have given him a modest position at best — even if he liked him personally.
But Dong-ha clawed his way up, stayed by Lee Shin’s side as his “human spotlight,” and never once faltered.
W е bn о̃_v е l Ѐ n.ü ṁ а
— “Remember this. My first ever recruit was you, hyung. You, Chae Dong-ha.”
Never forget.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Lee Shin had never once failed to recruit someone.
Not a single time.

“Wait a second. Could you repeat that?”
Chae Dong-ha lifted his glasses slightly, his eyes flashing — sharp like a hawk’s, despite his gentle tone.
The PR team leader swallowed nervously.
“Th-the ‘Let’s cheer in Mir City!’ event that you led… it’s getting a much stronger response than we expected…”
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
“No, not the response. Before that. You said some fans mentioned complaints in their interviews, didn’t you?”
“Uh? Oh, they said there weren’t enough smoking areas, and that the menu was kind of divisive…”
Е̇n u m̀ å
“That’s it. That’s what I wanted to hear.”
“Deputy CEO, that wasn’t a complaint, they were just chatting casually…”
“I’ll be the judge of that. Tell me everything.”
He latched onto what others might have dismissed as trivial remarks.
That was Chae Dong-ha’s style.
Where Lee Shin would captivate a room with his charisma and drive, Dong-ha was methodical and relentless.

From Dong-ha’s perspective, Lee Shin was a genius — a bundle of talent crafted by heaven for the sake of guilds.
Compared to that, he himself was ordinary.
So he had to work hard. If he lacked intuition, he’d keep replaying scenarios until inspiration struck, and if that wasn’t enough, he’d pressure his team leaders.
The team leaders suffered, but inspiration always came from pain.
Just like now.
“The cooking competition sounds good, Broadcast Team Leader.”
Wе b̃ n̄ о vе̂l̂ Е́ n ú ḿ а̄
“If we film a cooking show alongside it, it’ll be perfect. Cooking shows are consistently popular content.”
“Hmm, or what if we hand it off to a TV network? It’d probably look better on camera.”

“Oh, that’s a great idea!”
“Could you look into it for me?”
“Yes!! I’d love to do it!!”
“Off you go, then.”
Еn̂u m̆а
The broadcast team leader left the meeting room, basking in everyone’s envy.
Want to leave too? Then bring me an idea — that’s what Dong-ha’s soft gaze seemed to say.
“It’s already been two hours. Let’s make this quick. Analysis Team Leader.”
And the meeting from hell resumed.

To the team leaders, Dong-ha was a draining boss who squeezed out every last drop of their soul.
Who likes three-hour meetings, after all?
Е n ů m̄а̂.і̀ d̈
And yet, no one dared complain.
Because to them, Dong-ha was a genius too.

Dong-ha might have thought of himself as average, but others saw him as a different kind of monster.
If Lee Shin planned and achieved, Dong-ha only planned what could be achieved.
If Lee Shin pursued extreme efficiency, Dong-ha eliminated all waste.
The fact that he filled the great Lee Shin’s absence without leaving a trace was proof enough of his ability.
A quiet genius of a different breed, Chae Dong-ha was already recognized as such.
“Good. Next topic.”
En ǔ m̄.ā
“Ah…”
“Haha, I’m kidding. That’s it. It’s been three hours already. Meeting adjourned.”

As soon as it ended, everyone bolted out of the room.
Dong-ha stretched and closed his eyes.
Of course he was tired and wanted to rest.
And whenever he felt that way, Lee Shin’s mischievous grin would come to mind.
Ѐñu mǎ. і̄ď
To think that Lee Shin had borne this same weight for years, all while smiling like that…
“…He really is incredible.”
He knew it from the start — back when Lee Shin would bounce around on two hours of sleep like there was no tomorrow.
As Dong-ha smiled at the thought of that annoying face, the door opened and the sound of heels approached.

“What are you doing?”
“You’re here, Vice CEO.”

“They’re all gone.”
“You’re here, Choa noona.”
“Did you eat?”
“Just finished the meeting.”
A lunchbox was placed in front of him.
It was tonkatsu — from his favorite restaurant.

“What’s this?”
“Picked it up on the way.”
“What about yours?”
“I bought mine.”
“Hehehe.”
“What, why are you laughing?”
W̄ е̇ b̆ nо̆v é ľ Е́n u m̂ ä
“Nothing. You’re cute.”
“You never know when to stop talking.”

“Just eat.”
At Yoon Choa’s blunt kindness, Dong-ha smiled and picked up his chopsticks.
“Once the next Kirin Guild match ends, the first half’s over, right? Want to go on a trip during the break?”
“Can we?”
Ẅ е̄ b n̈ ӧ v́ e̊ l̃ Е n um̊ а̊
“Probably not, haha. By the way, didn’t you say you were looking into Kirin Guild? Find anything?”
“Nothing much. The Flame Queen’s injured.”
“…Nothing much? That’s huge news.”
A guild’s biggest secret was any injury among their main raiding squad — and Choa had managed to uncover it.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
That meant Mir Guild now held the advantage in their upcoming match against Kirin Guild.
“So that’s why Han Jeong-do’s been running his mouth so much.”
Е̊ n um ä .ї d
“He’s the type to talk a lot when he’s scared — up to a certain point.”
Just as Yoon Choa said, Han Jeong-do had been strangely vocal these past few days.
Saying things like how they’d never lose to a guild whose CEO ran off overseas mid-season, or how the Secretariat was being too favorable toward Mir Guild.
Grasping at straws, like a scared dog barking.
But interestingly, both Dong-ha and Choa reacted the same way.
Instead of laughing it off, they both wore pitying expressions as they thought of Han Jeong-do.

“Looks like the boss is going to be drooling over this one.”
“He’s going to strip him down to the soul.”
“Of all times, poor guy’s got the worst luck.”
“My thoughts exactly.”
“Poor bastard.”
Dong-ha searched for an article on his phone.

— “Oh god… is this for real? Are we really seeing this right now? The set score is 2:2. The final fifth set — a super slugfest with a kill score of 16:7, averaging over one kill per minute!”

— “You can do it, Mets! Game time is 21 minutes. There’s still plenty of time.”
— “Haha, Johnson has completely lost his mind. At this point, it’s clear the Yankees underestimated the Mets.”
— “Arrogant, weren’t they? And now it’s biting them hard! Look, the New Mets might lose to anyone, but they can beat anyone too — they’re an explosive team! And to think the Yankees used a three-man rotation against them. Arrogant indeed.”
— “Exactly. The result? They lost the first set in 21 minutes, the second in 19. They swapped to their main lineup only to reach this fifth and final set… but right now, the team in the lead is the Mets! At this rate, the Mets might win the Subway Series against the Yankees for the first time in ten years…!”

— “Shut up, Philip! Shut your mouth before I knock your teeth out!!”
Mets fans held their breath.
Е̄n̆.ùm̆а̇
Half of New York fell silent.
It was their local rival, the Yankees — whom they hadn’t beaten even once in ten years. Now, they were moments away from crushing them.
The fans could feel it instinctively. If the Mets won this game, they would be reborn as truly amazing.
— “24 minutes — Amazing Mets time! They’re moving! Once again, it’s the Mets Guild taking the initiative!”
— “All-in Mets! Giant-killing Mets! Go go! Mets!! You can do it!!”
— “The Mets Guild throws their bodies forward to open the way! It’s broken through! The runway is open! What a moving play!! Destroyer takes off with a double dash!!”

Teamwork meshed together like a precision clock, courage that never backed down against any opponent and, finally, the burning desire to win at all costs.
The passion Lee Shin had instilled in them was now in full bloom — in the hands of his pick, the Destroyer.
— “Double kill! Triple kill! Quadra kill!”
— “Penta kiiiill!!”
— “Ding ding ding! Game over! The Mets Guild destroys the Nexus!”
— “For the first time in ten years, the Subway Series goes to the Mets, ahhhh!!”

This was the beginning of the Real Amazing Mets.

John F. Kennedy International Airport.
On the runway where a private jet was parked, Lee Shin and MK stood facing each other.
“Brother. Thank you.”
W̊ѐ ḃn̊оv̇ е l Еn̆ùm а
“What for? I just did what I was paid to do.”
“Don’t say that. Maybe others don’t know, but I do. I know just how incredible you were.”
Even the phrase “beyond expectations” felt inadequate.
Could any adjective in the world truly capture the miracle Lee Shin had accomplished?

“How about staying here for good? I can pay you as much as you want.”
“Ma-hyung, do I look like someone who moves for money?”
Е̊ n̂u̇ m̆ а
“Then at least think of all the Mets fans who want you to.”
“Listen to you — the team owner already taking fans as hostages?”
Lee Shin chuckled as he continued.
“Just follow the operation plan I submitted in my report. Leave the CEO position vacant for now, but appoint Selena as the new director.”
Tears welled up in Selena’s eyes, and at Lee Shin’s small gesture, she bowed deeply.
“Will that be alright? Isn’t she too young?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“An SS-class genius director.”
“??”
“My subordinate, Chae Dong-ha, is an SS-class genius director. Selena is America’s Chae Dong-ha. If it’s her, she can put the Mets on top.”
“Really?”
“You don’t trust me?”
He hadn’t just cleaned out a hopeless mess — he had given it color, ignited passion, and turned half of New York into a garden of enthusiasm.
Еnuḿ а̄
And now, he’d even left them a future in Selena.
It was a gift beyond monetary value. Without a doubt, it was the most spectacular and magnificent gift MK had ever received.

That was why he had prepared something in return.
With a nod from MK, bodyguards stepped forward and handed over a pouch.
“A token of gratitude.”
“Feels like a bribe.”
Еnu m̃ а
“Haha, that’s right — a bribe asking you to help out now and then. Don’t forget, lobbying is legal in America.”
“Well, I’ve got nothing else for you, so come here.”
“Uh…”
Lee Shin and MK shared a brief, light hug.

“See you next time, Ma-hyung.”
“Come anytime, brother.”

And with that, MK’s private jet carrying Lee Shin lifted off the runway into the sky.
“Hey, CEO Lee! Sit here.”
“Boss!”
“Drink. How about it?”
“No thanks. Everyone, drink in moderation.”
Passing through his “Brother Outsourcing” buddies guzzling vodka, Lee Shin took his seat and slipped a hand into his pocket.

Out came a phone — one with a headset plugged in and a fruit logo on the back, which made him smile faintly.
“This hyung really thinks I’m part of the LeeDo Group.”
When he connected the headset, a lively beat came on.
The song title: [Passion].
A song written while watching Lee Shin’s time with the Mets — with both MK’s and Lee Shin’s names listed as composers.
At that sincerity, Lee Shin smiled warmly and pulled out his final gift. An item? Something else?
W̊ е̂ b n о̄v̄ĕl̄ Eǹ ûḿ а̇
He took it out with a racing heart — and froze.
“Huh… what? This hyung—?”

It was a shield, a silver shield engraved with a dazzlingly beautiful goddess.
Of course, Lee Shin knew exactly what it was.
It was originally supposed to belong to the EU CEO guild [Knights of the Round Table] — a legendary shield whose power varied greatly depending on the wielder’s [alignment].
