I Don’t Want This Reincarnation - Chapter 335
“Stop talking nonsense and find out what I’m talking about from now on.”
[What? What is it again?]
Kim Woo-jin explained the story of the incident to the other party. The person who was quietly listening to it asked with a sign of absurdity.
[You did the same thing last time, so why the hell are you, who are joining a large guild, looking for things like that?]
“You know where do I can get it?” (그걸 네가 알아서 어디다 쓰게?)
[Ironically. You may be genuinely curious.] (비꼬기는)
“You can tell, I can’t.”
[There should be… but it’s hard right now.]
“Why.”
[There’s a problemd.]
Kim Woo-jin furrowed dissatisfiedly.
[My work place is gone.]
“What?”
[The place you came to. The place was closed, so I got kicked out.]
“…are you serious?”
[Can I get money or food by lying to you like this? Of course, I mean it. First of all, I moved my computer and data to my house as soon as possible, but there was no place to connect and I couldn’t organize them… It’s a mess right now.]
“……”
[That’s why I can’t work now. I can find simple things, but such problems are difficult.]
Contrary to the light voice that seemed to fly in the sky, the content was quite complicated. Kim Woo-jin also made a difficult expression as he wasn’t expecting this kind of situation.
I was also saddened by it. From what I heard, that person seemed to be good at searching for information regardless of illegality. When I thought back on the documents I received last time, it was neatly organized.
I was thinking about whether there was a way to solve the problem that person said, but I talked to Kim Woo-jin first for now.
“If only a place to work is provided, would he be able to do the work we asked for?”
“Perhaps he can. But is there a way?”
[Oh? What?]
“Shut up. I didn’t talk to you.”
After thinking for a while, I nodded my head.
“I’ll have to check… but I don’t think the results will be bad because your friend is talented one.”
“Alright.”
[What? What is it? Anyone else there?]
Kim Woo-jin answered heartlessly to the confused opponent.
“I’ll try to solve your problem, so don’t do stupid things and wait patiently.”
[Ong? Oh?]
“Hang up.”
Kim Woo-jin, who mercilessly hung up the phone, came back with a gentle face and looked at me.
“Is this okay? I’ll contact him right away when it’s resolved.”
“Oh, ung… okay.”
Kim Woo-jin’s appearance was so different from when he was on the phone, I wondered if he was really a friend. I don’t think he was a friend, but someone who he disliked a bit. Or just my imagination?
Anyway, all that was left was mine. This time I picked up my cell phone to make a call.
I was very busy, so I didn’t expect to receive it right away, but fortunately, it didn’t take long before I heard a familiar voice.
[Han Yi-gyeol.]
“Ha Tae-heon-ssi, are you busy?”
[It’s okay, tell me.]
“I’d like to ask you a favour and one suggestion.”
* * *
Since there was no place to work, he could get him a new job. Ha Tae-heon, who heard my story, hung up the phone, leaving a message to come to the guild.
The reason I introduced him to Roheon, not Requiem, was because he reminded me of the siblings Luke and Luzel, who was working at Roheon. Seeing how she freely studied and produced something, it seemed that Kim Woo-jin’s friend would find it easier to adapt.
I headed to the Roheon Guild with Kim Woo-jin. Ha Tae-heon and Lee Joo-ha were sitting there when we went up to the reception room under the guidance of an attendant who was waiting for us in the hall.
“Welcome, Talented Han Yi-gyeol. And Talented Kim Woo-jin.”
Lee Joo-ha, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time, greeted me with a smile.
“Thank you for the invitation.”
“It’s nothing. I heard that you want to introduce a talented informant to our guild, so it’s only natural.”
Lee Joo-ha, who gracefully brushed her black hair like ebony, continued.
“Right, and I was late to say it… Thank you for giving Tae-heon an SS-class sword as a gift. I haven’t been able to reveal it yet because of circumstances.”
“No. The place where the sword came out was at the gate belonging to the Roheon Guild, so I think it’s of course for Ha Tae-heon-ssi. And I got help from Ha Tae-heon-ssi many times.”
I smiled awkwardly and replied moderately. Rather than that, the other team members didn’t know that I gave the SS-class sword to Ha Tae-heon, but Kim Woo-jin heard it, so it was as if I was caught in the end.
Um, I didn’t think I’d be able to hide it for the rest of my life, but I never thought I’d get caught like this. Kim Woo-jin’s eyes, who was sitting next to me, became a little cold and I felt embarrassed.
“Thanks for understanding. I know that the informant who will be introduced to the guild will come right away, is that right?”
“Yes. They said that they also departed, so I think they will arrive soon.”
“You said their name was Hyde? It seems to be his active account name, not his real name… If the conversation goes well and he officially signs a contract with the guild, he will have to disclose his personal information. Is that okay?”
In response to Lee Joo-ha’s question, Kim Woo-jin opened his mouth with a calm attitude instead of me.
“It’s a matter for him to decide, but he’s not someone who can easily change affiliation. I know that he has been working for over six years at this closed place.”
He had been working for over six years? The new information I learned was quite surprising to me.
‘I thought he was the same age as Kim Woo-jin, he’s not?’
Since Kim Woo-jin was now 24 years old, if Hyde, the same age, worked for more than six years, it was like saying that he had been working since he was a minor. If that was true, the place that was closed this time might be illegal.
Lee Joo-ha’s expression became slightly complicated as she was also having the same concerned as me. It was then that Hyde arrived in Roheon with good timing.
“Hello.”
When I first saw Hyde, who came in with the attendant who guided me to the drawing room, my impression was astonishing.
From the untrimmed ponytail that covered the forehead, the black horn-rimmed glasses, the wide black hoodie, and the laptop bag on the back. It was very interesting because he looked similar to a programming expert I had only seen on TV.
There was no awkwardness or shame in Hyde, who bowed and smiled broadly, perhaps only the cheerful and brazen personality he had while talking to Kim Woo-jin were there. He was suddenly summoned, so there would be nothing strange about feeling uncomfortable, but it was amazing.
“Welcome, Hyde-ssi. Welcome to Roheon.”
“It’s an honor to be invited to such a famous guild.”
As Hyde sat down on the chair opposite, detailed stories were exchanged in earnest.
I added an explanation related to the Praus Cult to the content that I requested through Kim Woo-jin earlier and also informed him about what would be good if he came to Roheon on behalf of Lee Joo-ha.
“Aa, that’s why… you’re not looking for those who are doing backdoor business with the gate, but you’re trying to find the Praus Cult.”
“To sum up, yes.”
Hyde, who was scratching his forehead with a strange face, looked at me.
“You explained it that way from the beginning. Then we can find information faster.”
“What I’ve told you right now is all excluded. There are a lot of things that I can’t tell anyone who isn’t involved in the matter.”
Of course I knew that Hyde wasn’t a bad party. But apart from that, it was right to be careful.
It was unavoidable that our vigilance grew as we went through many events. It was an unavoidable change as the lives of the team members were put through a lot of dangerous situations. The process of obtaining information about the Praus Cult was to be carried out as quietly as possible.
Hearing my answer, Hyde’s eyes lit up. Rather than offending him, the words that drew the line seemed to have stimulated his curiosity.
“Then if I become a member of the guild, will I be able to hear more detailed explanations about the Praus Cult? There are some things that I personally have been curious about, but no matter how much I searched, I couldn’t find anything.”
“If there is anything I can tell you, I will do it.”
I also brought up a question I had been wanting to ask for a while.
“Have you ever heard of any information about the Praus Cult? Considering what you say, you seem to be interested to some extent.”
“Of course.”
Hyde suddenly took a laptop out of his bag. Then he clicked his mouse and turned the laptop to show us the screen.
“We were gathering information little by little before the Praus Cult attacked the guild management headquarters and made their appearance in earnest. Ah, ‘we’ here is a deep website that I’m working on separately. It’s a hidden place to find and share information.”
“Oh, is that so?”
As soon as I reacted appropriately to Hyde’s look of excitement, Kim Woo-jin let out a soft sigh. On the other hand, Hyde’s passionate appearance of taking out a laptop and explaining it was fascinating, whether he was rather obsessed with it or not.
“There are four high-ranking people in the Praus Cult and all four are using pseudonyms instead of their real names. Doctor, Azazel, Abel, Samael. Four people. They are names mixed with religions.”
In the explanation that followed, I made eye contact with Ha Tae-heon, who was sitting next to me. It was too accurate and detailed to be simply information exchanged on the deep website.
“Then… do you often see content related to the Praus Cult?”
“Sometimes. However, it’s absolutely not something ordinary people would know.”
“The Prauss Cult has a high-ranking mental master. There seems to be a high risk that the mental controlled person intentionally wrote the wrong information or that an unrelated third party spread the false information.”
“That’s a given.”
Hyde shrugged his shoulders and put his hands on his laptop. Even though the laptop was turned towards us, his hand pressing the keyboard moved quickly without blockage.
“Even if it’s a deep website with only a small number of elite members, I admit that nonsense will inevitably come up. But the surest information is to filter out such rumours and find out.”
The more Hyde moved his hands, the more the program windows on the laptop screen changed at a tremendous speed. Not only me, but also Lee Joo-ha and Ha Tae-heon focused their eyes on the screen at the extraordinary sight.
“And in the meantime, this is the information I found a while ago.”
What finally appeared on the screen were photos and personal information of people I saw for the first time. Hyde added, raising the corners of his lips.
“These are the victims who were forced to work in the Praus Cult and were only recently released.”
