Chapter 76
There was plenty to eat at the well-known feast!
Unprecedented box office.
Unprecedented records.
The LeeDo Derby, which sucked in public attention like a black hole, ended in a grand success with Mir Guild’s victory.
The Secretariat unusually posted Mir Guild’s group photo on the homepage to commemorate the victory, and no wonder—730,000.
Е̂ ṅ.ŭm а .í d́
That’s right, the maximum concurrent viewers per minute was 730,000.
Such a number doesn’t even compare to League 2.

The Secretariat announced that the average viewers of last season’s League 1 was 680,000.
And that was an inflated number including overseas viewers and this and that, but Mir Guild easily surpassed it with only domestic viewers.
And at the mere League 3 level!
The media, of course, didn’t stay still either.
Е̃ n ũ m ӑ ..і̄ d̆
Guild News gave big coverage to the LeeDo Derby. All the guild newspapers filled their front-page articles with Mir Guild that day.
[ “Mir Guild overturns public evaluation and continues the legend” ]
[ “Insane pace, the dragon has no thought of stopping” ]

For Mir Guild too, the victory in this LeeDo Derby held great meaning.
To briefly check: first and foremost, what they had to celebrate was clinching 1st place early, and securing promotion to League 2.
[“Mir Guild becomes master of League 3 in just 29 matches this season”]
[“Regardless of remaining results, Mir Guild’s promotion is confirmed”]
Next was maintaining the record. They could continue the “legend” that started from League 4.
[ “67-round record streak, the legend is still ongoing” ]

[ “Since CEO Lee Shin took office, the dragon has never once kneeled” ]
On top of that, confirmation of Mir Guild’s popularity, the explosive influx of Gyeongnam fans after defeating NG Jaguars, a fellow Gyeongnam team, and even the Secretariat subtly acknowledging Park Su-bin’s nickname as the “Monster.”
Without a shred of exaggeration, with this one match alone, Mir Guild’s status upgraded one step higher.
But the festival of the Yongbung-i had not even begun yet.
― Guys. A party’s a party, but you haven’t forgotten what we still have to do, right?ㅋ

― Thanks for the tonic. Burp~!
― Whew…… it was fierce (dig dig)
Еńû m̃ а̇
― It was a good match (three-to-zero kkkk)
With all kinds of mockery, the NG Jaguars gallery turned into a trash bin.
At least compared to the skirmish beforehand, refraining from throwing crude curses was perhaps the winner’s generosity.
NG Jaguars fans had no choice but to watch their own house burn.
The cruelty of premature boasting lies in that when the momentum is good, it feels like it’s on your side, but once you collapse, it all becomes shackles that bind your limbs.
― Ha…… at least 3:2, then we could’ve said something;;

└ Lost so miserably there’s nothing to say;;
└ Can’t watch. I’ll leave the gallery for a while.
― Damn;; thanks to those so-called experts, we look ridiculous.
Usually this is the turning point.
There’s a hell worse than hell—if it just ended as mockery, it’d be better, but if they take one more step, arguing over who’s to blame for the defeat, looking for a hole to vent anger through internal shooting, then it's a catastrophe.
And inevitably, they.

― But isn’t it funny how Lee So-yul keeps her mouth shut?
Opened that hell gate.

― F***er, when strutting around she was all arrogant, but after the loss she disappears and makes the fans the meat shield……
“Aaagh!!”
Crash―!
W̊ e b̃n̆о v еl Ѐň u mȧ
Lee So-yul’s phone rolled across the office floor.
“Fk! Fk!! F**ker!!”
Even if others are angry, I am the angriest, even if others lost, I lost the most. Yet basement losers who didn’t contribute a single penny are mocking me.
Me, Lee So-yul!!

She could not tolerate this situation, where lowly things who wouldn’t dare meet her eyes in reality hid behind anonymity to mock her.
“Sue them all, Secretary Choi! I want to see if they can spout this kind of low-class talk in front of lawyers!”
Ên̂ üm ӑ . і ď
“I don’t think that’s a good idea, CEO. If you provoke the fans now, it’ll escalate, and then rather…”
“Hey! Thinking is my job! Your job is to realize my thinking!!”
“……You must regain your composure. At most it’s one loss. There are many matches left, and once the wins start coming again, the fans will…”
“Aagh!! I don’t want to hear it! Do it quickly!!”
Seeing So-yul throwing a tantrum, the secretary became convinced of a thought he’d long held.
Lee So-yul fundamentally had no ability to run a guild.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
In the guild scene, where fierce rank competition is the baseline, praise and ridicule following wins and losses is an unavoidable fate.
If you react to each one like that, you cannot run a guild.
‘Even this time, it shouldn’t have been blown up like this from the start.’
He wasn’t talking about using the LeeDo family squabble to borrow League 2 power.
That part was, rather, quite a fine move. To be generous, even forming a rivalry with Mir Guild, while perhaps overreaching, was praiseworthy. Attention is the very fuel that drives a guild.
But bringing her personal feelings toward Lee Shin into the guild, or acting as if victory was assured even if she had reasons, and finally, after a loss, the CEO should take responsibility and calm things instead of getting more agitated and unable to control her anger.
Е n̄u m a
In every respect, Lee So-yul was disqualified as a CEO.
The secretary left the office, sat at his desk, pulled out a key from his pocket, and opened a drawer he’d never opened.

Inside was a black smartphone. He picked it up and held down button 1.
In a capitalist society, no one shoulders risk without safeguards.
All the more if it’s a company on which thousands, tens of thousands of livelihoods depend.
The secretary assigned by Lee Sang-byeok doubled as assistant and monitor. But the more chilling fact about this action now was that this secretary wasn’t assigned by Lee Sang-byeok, but by Lee So-yul’s father.
Еnu mа̄
Moments later, the office phone rang.
Panting So-yul picked it up with a shout of “Can’t you grasp the situation?” and then faced the most dreadful reality given to her.
― “Lee So-yul. Get out of there.”
“G-Grandfather?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
― “You’re not at fault. It’s all your father and mother’s fault. Dragging a kid who was fine doing art into the guild out of their greed was stupidity from the start. You just go back and paint with your brush as you’re good at.”
“I can’t accept that. It was just one failure. If I try again, I can do it well. Get promoted to League 2 and get revenge…”
Е̊n u_m̄ ӑ
― “For So-yul to make her grandfather say it twice, clearly you have no talent in this field.”
Why did Lee Sang-byeok seat his grandchildren and family members as guild heads? Was it, as some say, to give them opportunity?
Not at all.
Because they were easy to handle and convenient to hold accountable.
That’s all.
― “Don’t say it’s unfair. Kids your age are struggling with tuition, with rent, even now. Even internships, infamous as slave labor, are realities they have to compete for. That’s the reality.”

― “So-yul, you’ve been going back and forth between England and France every year, buying and eating whatever you wanted, right? Was it because you were better than them? Special? No. It was because of me. Because you were born of Lee Sang-byeok’s blood.”
You are no different from those outside kids.
Your birth was your title, you were simply lucky to be born well.
― “Everything you wear, eat, defecate, all comes from me, that’s why you’re a chaebol. So don’t you think the right to decide Lee So-yul’s fate belongs to me? I must hold that much for the balance sheet to match.”
If you dislike it, then like some rogue, prove your own ability.
So there’s no need to feel too wronged. Anyway, soon there will be plenty following after Lee So-yul.
Е̃ n u ḿа̊. і̂d̆
― “Quietly get on the plane, So-yul. This is your grandfather’s order.”
The next day, in the NG Jaguars CEO seat sat a completely different person. The outside world only learned of the change much later.

Mir Guild.
On one side of the main building, gift boxes sent by fans were piled up like a mountain.
It wasn’t just a metaphor. They were really piled so tremendously high that the mountain of boxes made the passageway of the main building narrow.
Е́ n.um ӓ
And Lee Shin was buried in that mountain of gifts, smiling brightly.
“Honestly, you’re hopeless.”
Perhaps because they had kept in mind Lee Shin’s words—don’t act like losers after being promoted from League 4—the motives behind the gifts were all over the place.
Because the weather was nice, because the weather wasn’t nice, because they passed an exam, because they collected all the sticker packs, because Su-bin is handsome, because our Rira is cute, because I admire Teacher Jong-pil, because Mountain King is God and Lee Shin is invincible, and so on…

They wanted to congratulate, they wanted to hear Lee Shin’s words, and so they must have done something this adorable.
“Our fans are so cute, really.”
Ëň ǔ mа́
Those who love together what I love—how could they not be lovable?
Lee Shin’s eyes grew warm.
At that moment, Chae Dong-ha trudged into the main building entrance, carrying a black bag filled with soju and beer.
“Huh? What are you doing here? Didn’t you say you were going to get side dishes?”
“What else? I’m checking on Love and Peace. Grab what’s down there.”
“This icebox, you mean? Whoa, it’s heavy.”

“It’s boiled meat a fan sent. I was heading to the convenience store, and it came.”
“…Which delivery company is that? I’ve asked them several times to schedule fresh food deliveries only in the morning.”
“Forget it, mistakes happen. Let’s go.”
On the way back to the CEO’s office, for once the office lights were off.
To celebrate clinching 1st place early and securing promotion, the CEO had used his discretion to send everyone on compulsory vacation.
The word compulsory may seem odd attached to vacation, but with the legend of the undefeated looming before them, the whole guild had reached the point of voluntarily becoming slaves. Unable to stand watching it, Lee Shin had forcibly locked the guild doors himself.
Е̊n umã
As Chae Dong-ha set the food on the CEO’s office table, he said:
“This victory really does feel huge. I’ll confess now, but I thought we were going to lose. Even if, as you said, Su-bin has world-class talent, I thought he couldn’t overcome the wall of experience. I was wrong.”

“Not enough faith.”
“Exactly. Ah~ it almost feels like the season’s over.”
“Oh? Talking about slacking off in front of the CEO?”
“Hehe, being a wage-thief isn’t so bad, is it?”

“Perfect. I’m already doing it.”
-Hehehe.
-Snicker snicker.
Just then, the door opened and Jeong Sun-dong and Kim Jong-pil came in.

“Ah, we’re late. What can we help with first?”
“Hoho, what a good smell. Director, please have a seat. Young folks should handle this kind of thing.”
Еn ûm̆ а̃
Jeong Sun-dong, the spiritual pillar of the front office, and Kim Jong-pil, the brain of the raid team, along with Vice CEO Chae Dong-ha and CEO Lee Shin, the four key members of Mir Guild were gathered.
This was the place where the guild’s future would be set.
And then—
Lee Shin downed his first glass and revealed the future.
“For the rest of the season, I will step back.”
