Chapter 918

-Grid: How are you?

-Kraugel: Are you worried?

-Grid: No way. Who will dare worry about the person in the sky? I was just saying a common greeting.

-Kraugel: Things are good. I will get straight to the point. Why did you send me a whisper?

-Grid: Hehe... Can you let me know one thing? Are there any minerals in Satisfy that can be used as a material for sunglasses?

-Kraugel: Sunglasses? I see. The person who made the first contact with the evil eyes king was you. Are you planning to appease the evil eyes king?

-Grid: Amazing... Dont you know this is really creepy now? How can you guess that from one question?

-Kraugel: ...Isnt it funny that you are asking me about minerals?

-Grid: Pagmas knowledge isnt universal. I dont know what materials are required to make the item until the recipe is acquired.

-Kraugel: I heard you recently got an accessories maker? Wont it be better to ask her?

-Grid: Unfortunately, she still lacks experience. On the other hand, you have accumulated the most experience and knowledge in Satisfy. Please do me a favor. If you help me this time...

-Kraugel: The grandmasters experiments wear black glasses. They wear glasses made by processing ether diamonds.

-Grid: Grandmaster? Experiments? Diamond?

-Kraugel: Once again, it is an ether diamond. Im told it can be mined from the Elliter Mine in Talima.

Grid: The dwarf city... Do the dwarves grant access to the mine?

-Kraugel: The Elliter Mine has long been abandoned.

-Grid: Why?

-Kraugel: Elliter mine has a gap in the dimension. Muller sealed it, but the seal has weakened recently.

-Grid: A gap in the dimension?

-Kraugel: It is also known as a hell gate. Sometimes the 12th great demons hand will pop out.

-Grid: Hand...?

-Kraugel: A hand that can grab hundreds of dwarves at once and turns them into dirt.

-Grid: Is it impossible to go there right now?

-Kraugel: Thats right. The dwarves wont open the mine.

-Grid: So, that means there is only one way to get the ether diamond right now?

-Kraugel: Thats right.

-Grid: The National Competitions compensation.

-Kraugel: I wish you luck.

-Grid: Same. I hope you arent disturbed.

-Kraugel: Are you mocking me now? You are a few steps ahead of me this year.

-Grid: Next year?

-Kraugel: We will stand side by side.

Side by side instead of surpassing me again? He is a humble person.

Grid finished whispering and stood up. He sensed the resurgence of a competitor with SSS-class talent who was different from the ordinary Grid in many ways. Grids expectations were greater than his fear. He was stimulated rather than daunted.

***

The S.A Groups headquartershow was a building permit given for this? Did they give bribes? The building was so tall that it raised questions.

A car that was rarely seen stopped at the entrance of the lobby. This was a limited edition sports sedan which only a few people around the world had. It had been three years since the release of this model, but the unchanging value and sophisticated design still captivated peoples attention. The staff of the S.A Group in the lobby stopped their work and paid attention to the car. There were few people in South Korea who didnt know of the cars owner.

Click.

There were many exclamations when the young man descended from the car. Shin Youngwoohe was famous for being the first king among two billion players around the world. He received star treatment even among the employees of the S.A Group.

Welcome. I was surprised when I heard you wanted a direct visit. Yoon Nahee, the manager of the operations team, came to meet him.

It is nice to experience the fresh breeze. This is the best company in the world.

It is thanks to Youngwoo-ssi and the other users who enjoy playing the game.

Youre grateful to the users? I have a feeling that todays contract will be successful.

Yoon Nahee was very surprised by Youngwoos attitude. The silly young man she met last year was now gone.

He is a man who grew up with Satisfy...'

She shouldnt forget that the man in front of her was more special than anyone else. Yoon Nahee smiled brightly. We put our heart and soul into the contract with Youngwoo-ssi. You can look forward to it.

You put your heart and soul into it? Did the companys position on pavranium and divine stone change?

Im sorry, but... as we mentioned in advance, we cant include pavranium and divine stone in the rewards. Pavranium is a class-specific item, so the acquisition path and quantity are limited. Divine stone is classified as a divine item above adamantium and bloodstone, meaning players cant acquire it yet. Didnt you check the copy of the contract this morning?

I just wanted to ask. I understand. I cant argue about this.

Thank you for your understanding. The director will explain in more detail but Youngwoo-ssis rewards are limited to tier one production materials like last year... You? Yoon Nahee felt disturbed as she took Youngwoo to the elevator. It was due to the particularly dark smile that spread across Youngwoos face. What are you thinking?

Ether diamond. It is the reward I want.

...!! Yoon Nahee fell silent as she heard the name of the unexpected item. It was fortunate that she didnt fall down. The ether diamondsthey were diamonds encased in the dark matter called ether that absorbed light and magic power. The mineral inherited the characteristics of ether and diamonds, showing exceptional power under certain conditions. It was worth more than adamantium and bloodstone which were the representatives of different worlds.

However, the mineral rating is below adamantium and bloodstone.

It was naturally one of the best minerals that existed in the human world. Still, there was a problem.

...You know about it? The acquisition path of the ether diamond hasnt opened yet.

The special power of the ether diamond gave it a certain kind of usefulness, and it had the potential to make the rating obsolete. It was something that a player shouldnt have yet.

Youngwoo-ssi, the balance is important. At this point in time, players shouldnt have an ether diamond either.

Shin Youngwoo knew the balance that she was concerned about. For example...

Do you think I will free the evil eyes king?

...!!"

Ding!

The elevator door stopped where Yoon Nahee was heading. It was the 51st floor. She stood behind Shin Youngwoo like a statue as he knocked on the door of Director Yoon Sangmins office. He stated, You promised me. You will give me up to seven items under a certain rating for the demon king project.

Yes, the rating... The S.A Group focused on the rating of the rewards. That was a mistake.

N-No. Yoon Nahee looked at the office door that closed and hurriedly pulled out her phone. She tried to call Yoon Sangmin.

(Whats going on?) Fortunately, Director Yoon Sangmin picked up just after greeting Shin Youngwoo. She was in his emergency contact network, so Yoon Sangmin couldnt ignore her.

Yoon Nahee shouted, We have to change the contract!

(What are you saying? You want to suddenly change the contents of a contract that has already been thoroughly reviewed? Do you think this company is a playground?)

Youngwoo-ssi wants ether diamonds!

(What? A player knows about the ether diamond? Already?)

Modify the contents of the rewards before Youngwoo-ssi signs it!

It wasnt too late. Shin Youngwoo had just entered the office. He wouldve shared a handshake with Yoon Sangmin and just received the contract. By now, he shouldve just read the first part of the contract. Yoon Nahee felt hopeful. However, Yoon Sangmins murmur over the phone took away her hopes, (...He has already signed it.)

...!!

He signed the contract without reading it...?

...Ah. The nervous Yoon Nahee belatedly realized that this wasnt the first contract Shin Youngwoo had signed with the S.A Group. Before the 2nd National Competition, he signed a contract with the S.A Group and experienced the reliability of the S.A Group.

Then the reason he asked for a copy of the contract this morning...

Yoon Nahee hung up the phone and shook her head.

As the years pass, he is becoming harder and harder to deal with. The woman who gets him will suffer.

***

It has been a long time.

Nice to see you. I have been watching and cheering you on.

Thank you. Please give me the contract. I assume it hasnt changed from the copy sent to me this morning?

Of course not. Check it once again and then sign... Excuse me, I have to pick up a call.

Ive signed.

...????

It happened in less than a minute. Shin Youngwoo laughed as he placed the fountain pen he received from his father back into his pocket. Meanwhile, Yoon Sangmin struggled to keep calm as he put away his phone. You signed without reading it?

Didnt you say the contents are the same?

You never know...

Its okay. I already signed it.

We can resign the contract if we both agree... Sigh, okay. I understand. There is no point feeling regretful since it has already happened. I have one question.

What is it?

Why did you take the risk?

The risk?"

You couldve pretended not to know about the ether diamond and then signed the contract after carefully checking its contents. Why did you dare to tell Yoon Nahee about the ether diamond and create such an urgent situation?

I wanted to be sure.

Sure?

I wasnt sure if I should choose the ether diamond instead of a divine creature byproduct.

...Yoon Nahees reaction gave you confidence.

Yes. Her honest reaction gave me the answer. Thats why I signed this.

I see. You made the correct judgment. The ether diamond... To be precise, the value of the evil eyes king that can be exploited with the ether diamond is great. The evil eyes were an advanced species. They were different from the inferior water clan. The king of the evil eyes would give Shin Youngwoo a power that couldnt be compared to the water clan. With this, Youngwoo-ssi can build a foundation to fight against the empire. However, dont forget. It is just a possibility. The rewards will only be given based on Youngwoo-ssis and the four heavenly kings actions.

The contract clearly stated:

1. Shin Youngwoo must participate in the Demon Kings Subjugation event during the National Competition and play the role of the demon king.

2. The demon kings role is to be hostile and overpower the players participating in the Demon Kings Subjugation event.

3. The S.A Group will support Shin Youngwoo.

4. The four heavenly kings are referring to the NPCs Piaro, Asmophel, Mercedes, and Noll. The range of the duplication is limited to their stats, skills, and items. Duplication of their personalities, memories, and emotions are strictly forbidden.

......

......

12. The S.A Group is obliged to pay Shin Youngwoo compensation whenever the number of kills accumulated at the gateways of the four heavenly kings increases by 100. Compensation payout will be given at the end of the contract.

13. If Shin Youngwoo survives until the end of the Demon King subjugation event, the S.A Group will give him compensation. Compensation payout will be given at the end of the contract.

14. This agreement is valid until the end of the 4th Satisfy National Competition.

Unlike Shin Youngwoos wishes, there were no special privileges. The S.A Group didnt give Shin Youngwoo any special skills or items when he was the demon king. Shin Youngwoo had to fight against all those participating in the National Competition with his own abilities and the abilities of the four heavenly kings who cloned the stats of his subordinates.

It wouldnt be easy. In particular, once the representatives of each country recognized the essence of the event and formed an alliance, the odds of the king being defeated would rise exponentially. Grid could gain up to seven rewards. Youngwoo would be able to monopolize more rewards than others could, but he was in a disadvantageous situation.

Please play an active role and get the rewards you want.

Thank you for your support, Youngwoo said goodbye to Director Yoon Sangmin and headed home. For the remainder of the time he had left, he was planning to build up his specs, make new items for his subordinates, and raise his level. In particular, he had to refine Noll who had been left unattended for a long time.

The National Competition now has a separate server. I can consume the creation slots at will.

There was a chance of victory.

I will do whatever it takes to win.

***

Apart from the ether diamond, the list of rewards includes the Stone of Life, the prophets skull, the kelad cloth, and the yangbans mask. Get rid of them

Yoon Sangmin gave an order after Shin Youngwoo left. It wasnt possible to change the compensation for Shin Youngwoo who had a separate contract, but the gold medal rewards were different.

We figured out the blind spots of the compensation thanks to Youngwoo-ssi. Weve received his help. He tried to think positively, but a sigh emerged. Yoon Sangmin was already worried about the demon king project.
