Reversing Life With Legendary Skills! - Chapter 8
There is no eternal secret in this world.
The moment two people know about it, it is no longer a secret.
[The appearance of legendary grade skills?!]
[Player with legendary rank skills appear!]
[Who has the legendary level skill?]
“That is why I was not surprised by the different articles on the Internet.”
“Oh, it also went up in real-time search terms.”
1st to 10th. The search terms associated with the legendary rank skill rose.
It was a significant ripple.
“Wow… … The author of this blog has great observation.”
Blogs also posted related articles in real-time.
And of course, Jinwoo was suspected to be holder of the skill.
“O-M-G… … There are a lot of curses.”
“But this time, we are connected to the player community.”
There was a lot of cursing because of how concentrated the attention was.
-Are you a legendary skill holder? Why did you uncover it?
└ Agree. If you expose yourself, someone is bound to send an assassin to get rid of their competitors, so why?
└Would a kid with legendary grade skill die from an assassin?]
└ Is he not level 50 at best?
-I think it is smart to reveal the legendary grade. Even if you have a hero-level skill, are there places where you can be killed if you do not come to them? But if it is legendary, the story is different. Wouldn’t it somehow protect you from signing?
└ IKR.
└ Did you even think that? Not just a seed of interest?
└ One up-vote for interest.
Different articles filled the community.
Most of them were Jinwoo’s story. He felt strange, yet proud.
‘Hero-grade skill holder.’
What a stunning title. That alone can make a lot of money.
The problem is the retaliation.
If you have a hero-level skill, it is high and rare power. In other words, it means that the rank of the guild may change if someone of that grade joined. If a guild cannot have the talent for themselves, they will try to get rid of it.
In the past, there were several incidents where a hero-level skill holder died.
They had one main thing in common.
‘Their level was low.’
It was because the guilds only moderately needed them. It was worthwhile to dispose of the individual if they couldn’t get their hands on them.
So Jinwoo decided that he needed to be a desperately wanted individual.
The guilds would not dispose of the first legendary player.
So, he revealed it.
That he has ‘Legendary grade skills.’
The effect was excellent.
Creak-!
He opened the window and looked outside of the house.
Cars were surrounding it.
He recognized half of the people walking down the street.
They were Korea’s 5th guild.
The government assigned them to be there.
For what reason?
It was for Jinwoo’s protection.
-A Legendary skill holder of unprecedented levels.
The government sent troops to protect him in case of any emergency.
There was also another group there.
“Uh! There!”
“It’s Kang Jin-woo!”
“Legendary skill holder!”
Flashes fired one after another.
They were journalists and paparazzi.
On the Internet, Jinwoo was known as the Legendary skill holder. He had reporters and guild officials writing articles and headlines about him. Thus, rumors began to spread Worldwide from the moment Jinwoo revealed it.
Now he was living like a celebrity.
* * *
The Legendary rank skill player appeared.
Not only in Korea, but the whole world knew.
The guilds had been turned upside down.
“Really?”
“Are you sure?”
It was a common reaction in the reported hypocrisy.
There was quick confirmation from Jinwoo’s guild, where the scouts had a meeting with him previously.
“It was confirmed.”
“The skill name is Dokgogu. He revealed it himself.”
“Do you think we can even be excited without having had it confirmed first?”
The scouts said confidently.
It is because they saw it with their own eyes. Players were able to reveal their stats, skills, and possessed items at will. Jinwoo had already shown his skills to the scouts. He only revealed the grade and skill name and had excluded the ability’s description.
“How much should we give?”
“I do not know.”
‘How much would it take?’
The guilds were still worried because there was no standard set yet.
* * *
Several guilds came and went.
However, they did not provide proper conditions. At most, they offered 10-20 billion more than the existing hero-grade skill holders.
Although a considerable amount, there was no impact.
The first legendary grade skill.
The first to have that skill would forever be remembered in history. After that, the impression of the legendary grade will decrease.
‘First is an opportunity that only comes once.’
He wanted to get a proper evaluation.
***
A week had passed.
Big hands began to move in earnest.
The first to start was the Royal family.
“We prepared 100 billion won as a deposit.”
Han Dong-jin said.
Jinwoo almost spat out his juice.
The last hero-level skill contractor received 50 billion won.
It was twice the amount.
“The annual salary is 10 billion, and we promise to provide benefits, including free housing and other conveniences such as hero-class items owned by the guild.”
Royal family Han Dong-jin’s proposal was a signal.
The next day, officials from Korea’s Top Ten Guilds came.
The down payment and salary increased day by day.
Jinwoo felt like he was already rich, even though he had not received anything yet. However, he needed to be more alert now than ever.
“It’s not my money until it comes into my bank account.”
He said to himself.
He slapped his cheeks and tried to organize his feelings.
‘Smack!’
Then, with the sound of a knock, Sunwoo opened the door.
“Hyung, are you alright?”
“Yeah, I’m fine.”
“Thank goodness. Brother, can I ask you something? “
“Huh, what is it?”
“Did you ever decide where to go? Every day at school, all the kids and teachers ask about you.”
Sunwoo’s voice was filled with excitement.
Since revealing the legendary grade skill, Sunwoo had been tense.
He was worried that Sunwoo would be bothered or hurt. Fortunately, he seemed to be enjoying the attention.
“I haven’t decided yet. I’ll have to make a decision soon.”
Jinwoo answered.
“Indeed, today’s news says that the guild master of the Taewang Guild is coming out.”
“On the news?”
“Yes! You said you were doing an interview related to the last dungeon attack. It should have started by now. Would you like to see it too?”
“Ok.”
The Taewang guild has always been grandiose; everyone was puzzled because they had not made contact yet.
Jinwoo thought that he would be contacted immediately by the Taewang guild.
It was one of the top three Guilds in Korea, and with an overwhelming amount of funding power, it ranked seventh in the world.
Taewang Guild.
He wondered if they were not interested.
He sat in front of the TV and played a news channel.
At that time, the Taewang guild, Park Tae-sung, was being interviewed. It was an interview about the dungeon strategy.
There was nothing special. The conversation seemed to come and go, following the written script.
Then the announcer threw a question.
-Recently, a Legendary level skill holder has emerged and become a hot topic. What is the Taewang guild’s position regarding this?
“Hey, they’re talking about you, brother!”
Sunwoo’s eyes twinkled and focused on the TV.
The same was for Jinwoo.
“What is he going to say?”
-I am thinking of acquiring it.
-Ah-! Is that true?
-We are the best guild in the world. The best players, of course, must come to our guild. It does not matter what conditions he wants. I will bring it.
“Wow…He’s so cool.”
Sunwoo said in a soft voice.
Indeed, Jinwoo also felt that Park Tae-sung’s self-confident figure was cool.
Ding-dong!
The bell rang.
Jinwoo stood up and checked the door.
A beautiful woman that looked like a celebrity was standing upfront.
Beside her was Park Tae-sung, the guild master of the Taewang Guild.
* * *
It was something he could not even imagine possible.
The World’s Top Ten Guild Masters was at their home.
“Wow-! I’m going to see Park Tae-sung in real life!”
Sunwoo ran around watching Tae-Seong Park’s autograph and photos on his cell phone.
Jinwoo, looking at his younger brother’s excitement, glanced at his hand.
There was a piece of paper.
“Please write the amount you want.”
He had seen it in movies.
A blank check.
“You can write how much you want. I’ll give it to you.”
Park Tae-Seong was imposing, just as they saw on TV.
Jinwoo thought Park Tae-Seong was a wonderful man even when he saw it.
“I want to create the best guild in the world. For me to do that, we need your strength,” the Guild Master said.
Before they left his house, Jinwoo recalled what the master said,
“I want to create the best guild in the world. For me to do that, we need your strength.”
He wanted Jinwoo to be part of his guild.
Jinwoo’s heart was pounding just thinking about it.
* * *
A week had already passed.
It was quiet, but the media was still busy.
High-ranking officials all over the world visited Korea one day after another.
They all have the same purpose.
[The first legendary class holder, Jinwoo Kang, where is his destination?]
[The guild’s choice will depend on Kang Jin-woo’s choice!]
[Different from hero rating! What kind of skills does he possess the legendary grade, Dokgogu Sword?]
[China’s Red Dragon presents 300 billion won as a down payment!]
[Will he stay in Korea?]
There were so many articles.
China’s big hands have moved, and the guild, based in the United States, has offered to sign.
Now the Korean media was worried.
The story of their country’s first legendary-level skill holder reached abroad.
There was no legal way to stop it.
Many hero-level skill holders signed contracts with overseas guilds.
Conversely, it was also common for foreign players to recruit domestic guilds.
The problem was that he was a legendary-level skill player.
If he signed to foreign countries, there had to be substantial damage.
Jinwoo Kang remained focused on all the attention.
That was all he thought about every day.
And now it came time to make a decision.
He called someplace on his phone.
“I’m Kang Jin-woo.”
* * *
After a week, Taewang’s guild faced Tae-Seong Park again.
“There are conditions.”
“Please speak.”
“I want a hero-level skill card separate from the down payment and salary.”
“A secretary.”
“Yes.”
“What hero-level skill cards do you currently have in the guild?”
“We have three cards.”
Jin-woo was surprised by the four words.
A hero-level skill card was hard to get even with money.
But they had three.
“When the contract is signed, you can choose which of the three you want.”
Park Tae-sung accepted the conditions without hesitation.
“You can also say any other conditions. I will accept all of it.”
Jinwoo was astonished.
It wasn’t just a blank check.
Park Tae-sung was planning to make Jinwoo sign even if he invested everything in the guild.
It was impossible to refuse.
“I will sign the contract.”
“You thought well.”
‘Jinwoo signed the Contract.’
And 10 minutes later.
All media outlets reported it in breaking news.
[Contract with the First Legendary Rank Skill Holder, Taewang Guild!]
