Chapter 99
Someone’s tapping brightens his vision.
And soon after, a man appears.
“Hey, get up! Class is over.”
Lee Shin thought.
It’s a dream. The man was a college friend whose name he barely remembered now.
Ĕ_ń_u̇ḿ ӑ .і d̃
“You stayed up all night again yesterday? Tutoring? You booked more tutoring? Wow, four sessions, right? Or five?! Crazy guy, how can someone on a scholarship be so money-hungry to take on five tutoring sessions?”
At the mention of five tutoring sessions, Lee Shin realizes this was his third year in college.

Back then, his older brother had just started his hospital life in earnest, and he was desperate for money.
Luckily, he had a good academic background and could get high-paying part-time jobs; otherwise, he wouldn’t have managed at all.
“I don’t get you. Why do you live like such a nerd? With that height, that looks, you ditch the checkered shirt and put on the S-marked school jacket? Game over right there.”
“No way. Today, you’re coming with me. Hey, who said you had to pay? Follow me. Hyung will treat you to the full course today.”

That friend was infamous even within the department.
Rich family, good-looking, smart, and also popular. Even if his wallet was short and he constantly asked for meals, he would never frown and would even buy a full pork cutlet set.
“Had it all.”
The only thing he couldn’t have was the top rank title that Lee Shin had taken from him at enrollment.

At this point, the pieces of memory began to fall into place, and Lee Shin realized the situation of this dream.
“Oh, that time.”
W eb̈ n̆ȯṽ е̇ ĺ Ӗ n̂u m̃ á
The day he went to the most incomprehensible place in his life.
Sure enough, the infamous space appeared.
Colored lights and pounding beats that hit the heart.
Sparks igniting amidst youthful, fiery movements.
Yes. It was a club.
“Aren’t you loving it? People have to know how to have fun. Huh? Hey! Hyejeongs, this is my friend. Lee Shin, surname Lee, first name Shin. Handsome, right?”

The first club he ever went to was a shock to Lee Shin.
Noisy, dark, alcohol, perfume, body odor, all kinds of smells mixing, wriggling on a stage no bigger than a nostril like a worm in a PET bottle.
And the table with 200 on it, which didn’t make sense.
So he probably asked—was this fun?
“Fun? Of course it’s fun. Why, you don’t think so? Hey! Guys, my friend says it’s not fun!!”
His friend said everyone plays like this, so he should join, but Lee Shin could not.
Ẅе̄ b̆ n̈ō v̄ ê_l Е̊ nům_а̌
Not because of money, nor because he was tired.
Fundamentally.

“It’s not fun at all.”
For Lee Shin, fun equaled rest.
When he was young, to escape loneliness; when older, to endure the harsh reality. He needed rest to survive this difficult reality and found it in fun.
And that was GM. Lee Shin’s only truth and sanctuary.
Е̇n̆u̇.m̈à .іd
Leaving the club, Lee Shin probably thought:
“This time……”

“CEO!!”
Lee Shin, awoken by the shout, turns his head with a creak. And to Chae Dong-ha, wearing the most urgent expression he had seen recently, he says:
Ӗn ũ m̈ а
“…Which character should I level up?”
“…….”
“…….”
“…….”
Snap!!
A squid mark appeared on Chae Dong-ha’s forehead.

The last breath of calm was slipping away—character? Carry?
Chae Dong-ha gritted his teeth, barely restraining his anger, and spoke each word slowly and clearly.
“…We. Are. In. Big. Trouble. CEO!!”
On the phone Chae Dong-ha held out, it read:
< Reporting Lee Hye-jeong’s school violence. >
In that instant, Lee Shin realized the meaning of the dream he had just had.
W̆ е́b̀n̂_о v ѐ l Е̂ ṅ ùmа̇
“Ah… a precognitive dream!”
That friend probably also took a leave due to school violence, right?

The “Lee Hye-jeong School Violence Incident” revealed on the YouTube channel began the whistleblower interview with: “Lee Hye-jeong was a devil.”
— “Smoking was basic, and the kids who hung out were delinquents. They were what you call delinquents. That was her.”
— “The hardest thing was money. Money, money, money. She extorted money from kids every day. One day, a friend had financial difficulties and said they had no money. Then she said, ‘Then pay with your body,’ and slapped them…… sob!”
W е_b̂ ň_о̂ v̇е́l_ E̊ ńūm̀ä
Hearing that she extorted classmates in a pyramid scheme-like manner, forced them to lend money, and charged interest—one could barely tell if she was a student or a loan shark.
— “I originally wanted to keep it quiet, but seeing her thriving as a hunter made me so disgusted I couldn’t stand it. If you do bad things, you should be punished. That’s right. Sob sob.”
With a dense structure and the victim’s tears, it was a perfectly executed report video.
And by coincidence? From that moment, videos about Mir Guild hunters suddenly started pouring onto YouTube.

Beyond this, there were videos of swearing, smoking, love affairs, debt issues. Even videos that were almost scams in nature!
From the main players in counter battles to all raid main players. Anything related to Mir Guild became a hot topic video.
Suspiciously, an unusually large number of negative videos were being produced targeting Mir Guild.
Yes.

Mir Guild CEO Office.
The representative office, normally already noisy in accordance with its owner’s personality, was today at the top of the top in terms of chaos.
And judging by the long line of hunters stretched out, it seemed it would continue to be noisy for a while.
“CEO!! This is fabrication!! It’s true I lived with Ji-young for about two years after meeting her on a blind date, but it was Ji-young who cheated and Ji-young who broke up with me! She told me I had no future in the fifth-division league……!”

“Calm down, Jeong-seok. I believe you. It’s okay. Calm down, and first of all, like in the video, you didn’t have two-timing relationships, right?”
“Phew…… Shortly after we broke up, you scouted me, and after moving here, I met Sarang noona. There wasn’t even time for overlap.”
“Hmmm~ Then why did you break up with Sarang noona?”
“Well, personality didn’t match in various ways…… Anyway, there was no two-timing or anything like that.”

“I know. I believe you.”
After saying “I believe you” at least a hundred times without adding any jokes, Park Jeong-seok, who had gotten excited, was finally able to be sent out of the CEO office.

But that was only one person.
There were still many people who needed Lee Shin.
To Lee Hye-jeong, who was crying uncharacteristically, he patted her kindly.
“Sob, I really didn’t do it, Representative. Why would I take money from my friends? I don’t even know their faces.”
“I know. I believe you.”
“It’s so unfair, hiiing.”

To Yu Rira, who was troubled, he gave advice.
“CEO, it’s unfair! Stalking? I just went to convenience stores my oppas often visit or followed their schedules, a normal fangirl thing……”
“Shut your mouth.”
“…Yes.”
To Park Su-bin, who entered with an anxious face, he only said one thing.
“CEO……”

“Bokchi, go in.”
“…Yes……”

After counseling everyone like that, the morning felt like evening—a miracle?
Lee Shin looked at the dark sky, smirked, and checked the monitor.
Even at this very moment, all kinds of provocative gossip about Mir Guild—personal life, family matters, past stories, romantic issues—were being produced as videos.
“The first video went up, and in two days, more than twenty appeared…… They’re so bold.”
E_n̄ um ǎ
If his sense of reality wasn’t broken, he could tell this wasn’t normal.
And indeed, it was far too blatant.
Well, considering Mir Guild’s current pace, it wasn’t strange at all.
They had not just recovered form but stepped up a level, once again dominating both raids and league matches.

“Right? Hyung?”
At that moment, Chae Dong-ha, who had entered the office, placed Lee Shin’s favorite matcha frappuccino in front of him and answered.

“CEO, are you sure another League 2 guild is behind this incident?”
“Our guild’s performance leaves no gaps. Even kids passing by would know it’s impossible to catch up internally during a match.”
“…Still, they spent so much on recruitment. Will they really give up so easily?”
“Look now!”
Chae Dong-ha trailed off.
Lee Shin immediately caught that lack of confidence.

“Be honest, hyung, while talking, your thoughts got complicated, right? You probably thought, ‘If it’s those chaebol guys, they could burn that much money if they wanted…… like this.’”
“…….”
“And what’s so meaningless about it? Flip the perspective. Because they paid that much, now they even dare to sit at the same table as us. It’s like a ‘friendship fee.’”
“Friendship fee? Do you know the average recruitment budget for a second-division guild? Making two friends would destroy three or four small businesses.”
“Kukukukakkkyaakkk!”
Lee Shin, finally laughing like a villain after a long time, sucked on the straw and changed expression.

“Still, praise where praise is due. I don’t know who, but they hit one point brilliantly.”
“…You mean they didn’t target the guild or me, but carefully targeted the other members?”

“Al~! Correct, impressive.”
Chae Dong-ha was right.
This trick was thoroughly targeting Mir’s “assault team.”
“When a hunter does well, it’s not strange for this kind of trick to happen. The better the performance, the more famous, the more the flies gain.”

Close: views. Far: reputation. If done right, even a pretty decent profit.
Oh my, should we endure this?
That’s why they use cheap, sensational thumbnails like to draw out only peripheral excitement. And it works very well.
“It’s more fun to see someone rise and then fall than to see others do well. That saying exists for a reason: ‘Falling has wings.’ Those with wings are evil, hoping others fall.”

“…That probably doesn’t mean that exactly.”
“Anyway, what I mean is, this is absolutely ‘not a strange incident.’”
W eb nо́ v̌ ël̈ Еǹ ŭ m̈ а
And what Lee Shin admired about this childish trick was this:
It exploited the petty jealousy of people who can’t stand others doing well, and spread it widely to create a single public opinion.
“See, the ones active at the start are getting quiet, and now others are poking around.”
“Really, it’s true.”
“Another point to praise! They picked the topic cheaply from the start.”
“It’s childish, so anyone can touch it, no proof is needed, and it resonates more. Moreover, being so childish makes it awkward for our guild to respond.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“That’s right~! Smart is best after all.”
Chae Dong-ha was right.
Because the controversy was so childish, it was harder for them to respond.
For example, if they seriously respond with a lawsuit joke, the audience says, “See, they’re scratching? Must feel guilty.”
If they ignore it, people say, “See, they must feel guilty!”
Either way, it ends with “they must feel guilty.”

Truly an invincible logic.
“Incitement is possible in one sentence, but refuting requires dozens of pages of evidence.”

“…Like Propaganda Minister Goebbels.”
“Here, it’s a spellcaster, anyway, to sum up.”
Cheap videos targeting individuals and petty jealousy. The logic is invincible, making the responders look ridiculous.
“This is a no-loss deal.”

“No-loss deal…….”
“Yes. It’s similar to how I pick on ‘Kirin Guild’ every cooldown. Different type, same principle.”
“Ah, I get it. They can stir things up freely, but we lose if we touch them, right?”
“Yes. Whoever it is, they’re clever. I want to see their faces if I get a chance.”

Then Cha Dong-ha grew serious.
“If this was planned by someone, isn’t it a serious situation?”
W̊ ё bńо̇v е̌.l̄ Ěn ŭ m̃ ã
“Hm? A little?”
If Lee Shin had orchestrated this trick, the next step would be to subtly fan the flames and grow public opinion.
At the same time, he’d thoroughly investigate to catch the “real case.”
Two aren’t needed. One. Just one fact, revealed at the right time.
Then, the exaggerated bluff would miraculously turn into “real.”
“Shredding the confused assault team to pieces.”

“Hey! That guild is us right now!”
“Ah……! Right.”
“Right? Why is the person who should devise countermeasures enjoying the story of shredding their own guild so much!”
Cha Dong-ha huffed and asked.
“So, do you have a plan?”
Lee Shin, as always, answered with a mischievous smile.

What more needs to be said?
“I’m Lee Shin.”
