The hotel where the Chinese national team was staying.
The atmosphere of the national team, which had been depressed, quickly recovered immediately after Hwang Ho, who appeared as Chairman Hwang Myeong-ho, left.
Lu Boyuan caused an accident, and there was a war of nerves between the foreign coach and the Chairman of the Hwang Myeong Foundation, but that was a problem that the coaching staff should solve, and it was none of the studentsâ business.
The students who were not directly involved soon started having fun without paying attention.
Of course, the students who were directly involved in the problem were not like that.
Yao Leqi thought blankly as she waited for Lu Boyuan, who was taken to the room the coaching staff had rented.
âBoyuan is still being scolded.â
Dong Xiaodan, the general manager, was particularly harsh on Lu Boyuan, and would immediately punish him if he caused an accident.
The punishment for this incident was also carried out in this context.
The punishment ended with a brief lecture to Yao Leqi, the accomplice, but Lu Boyuan was held until dinnertime.
It seemed a bit excessive, but no one objected.
It couldn't be helped because Lu Boyuan was Dong Xiaodan's maternal nephew, and if a relative were on the coaching staff, it would be easy to suspect favoritism, so he had no choice but to treat him more strictly.
Dong Xiaodan considered Lu Boyuan's situation as well as his own.
"Wait for Lu Boyuan? If you do that, the hotel's dinner time will be over."
The person who spoke to Yao Leqi was Li Wei.
Li Wei spoke to him in a sharper tone than usual, but Yao Leqi, who had committed a crime, couldn't find fault with his tone.
The Chinese national team is a group selected from countless players from the vast continent, so students with various personalities gather together.
However, Li Wei, who was connected to the famous superior being Yan Emperor Shennong, was humble and gentle, and was suspected of having a weak personality.
Yao Leqi, who had cooperated in the attack on Li Wei as soon as he arrived in Korea, thought this way, but in fact, Yao Leqi had never looked down on Li Wei.
Even though he had undergone harsh training, he had never groaned, and even when he had to face brutal images to prepare for the mental attack, Li Wei was no different than usual.
âIt was as if he had an attitude that it was nothing compared to what he had experienced. He was like a person who had lived in a battlefield.â
Although Yao Leqi did not know much about Li Weiâs history, his thoughts were correct.
Li Wei abandoned his childhood and trained hard to avenge his fatherâs brutal death.
Considering the torture his father was supposedly subjected to, Li Wei could overcome any difficult situation.
Because of this, Li Wei felt that most training was easy, and he was not impressed by any cruel scenes.
âI wanted to say hello to Chairman Huang Minghuo, but you did something like that. This time, you crossed the line.â
â⦠⦠âIâm sorry.â
âIâll accept your apology. If you do something similar next time, I wonât forgive you.â
Li Wei said softly, as if joking, but Yao Leqi felt a little creepy.
If he did something similar to Li Wei again, it didnât seem like he would really be forgiven.
In fact, Li Wei was sincere.
Now that he had achieved his revenge, Li Wei still had an obligation to cooperate with the clan in return for helping him with his revenge.
He didnât feel good about having the chance to greet the clan that he felt indebted to, but the two of them ruined it with their ridiculous pranks.
If Dong Xiaodan hadnât stepped in and punished him so harshly, Li Wei would have taken action himself.
Yao Leqi changed the subject to appease his creepy feelings.
âLi Wei, why did you apply for the support role? I think youâd be good at fighting as a dealer. If one of the dealers gets injured, the coach will put you in that position instead of a substitute.â
âEven if it was 2-on-1, youâre saying that after subduing me?â
âIf you hadnât let him go, it would have been difficult no matter how well you set the trap. You let him go because you thought Lu Boyuan might get hurt.â
âThatâs true. It would have been better to let him get hurt a little and heal him later. Iâll do that next time.â
Li Wei continued to speak seriously in a joking tone.
If Li Wei uses Guanglin, he can immediately heal severed limbs.
It might be possible to regenerate, but since he had successfully reattached a severed finger when he first activated Guanglin, it seemed like he could do something bigger now.
Yao Leqi realized that if he messed with Li Wei in the future, he would have to be prepared to lose an arm or a leg.
â⦠⦠.â
At that moment, Li Wei stopped talking and looked across the hallway.
The two were currently in the break room located in the center of the floor that the Chinese national team had rented.
It was originally a bustling place, but now most of the students had gone out to eat dinner, go sightseeing, and buy snacks, so it was quiet.
Yao Leqi looked at the end of the hallway a beat later than Li Wei.
Woof⦠⦠.
She felt a slight vibration on the floor.
Yao Leqi realized who had just activated the power.
âI guess Mr. Dixiang was over there. Did he not go out for dinner?â
The person called âMr. Dixiangâ among the students was one of the Grand Crosses leading the Three Knightsâ Oath, the Knight of Earth Tremor.
The fact that his name included âEarth Tremorâ was related to the power he used. Whenever he activated a powerful power, it would leave a tremor on the ground.
I heard that he had excellent power control skills and could use his power without a trace, but now he didnât seem to have any intention of hiding his power.@@novelbin@@
âAre you going to stay here? Dong Xiaodan wonât starve Lu Boyuan. Just eat dinner separately.â
Li Wei seemed to be thinking of leaving, as if he didnât want to run into the Ground-Wind Knight.
Yao Leqi was convinced by those words.
Lu Boyuan would have to get beaten up and write several pages of reflections, but Dong Xiaodan would definitely feed him food.
He would force Lu Boyuan to eat vegetables he didnât usually eat.
Yao Leqi also decided to say something since he had heard good advice.
âIf you avoid him on purpose, it will be obvious.â
Li Wei got along well with most of the team members and talked comfortably with them, but the Ground-Wind Knight was an exception.
When the Ground-Wind Knight first joined the team, he was very interested in Li Weiâs abilities.
In addition, the Ground-Wind Knight ran a special curriculum at the Chengdu Player Training Center, and Li Wei was from Chengdu, so they seemed to communicate well.
âMaster Dixiang must have wanted Li Wei to enter the player training center even now⦠⦠.â
Li Wei had good protection and light, but because he lost his father, his ability status became unstable, so he did not enter the player training center.
It was a sensitive situation because there were several incidents of reckless behavior within the training center and they had to cover them up, but they couldnât just leave Li Wei alone, so there was a lot of talk.
In the meantime, Xuanwu, one of the long-standing Jin clans, stepped forward to take charge of him, and the higher-ups passed it on without hesitation, and Li Wei grew steadily without going through the training center and became a full-fledged player.
Because of this situation, no one thought it strange when he often talked to Li Wei out of curiosity about the Earthquake Knight.
However, at some point, Li Wei began to avoid the Earthquake Knight.
Those who were quick-witted like Yao Leqi gradually realized this.
âI know, because youâre showing off.â
Li Wei also seemed to have no intention of hiding it.
Yao Lechi was curious about the reason, but hesitated whether to ask or not because she thought it was too much of a question.
After about 3 seconds of thinking, Yao Lechi lost to curiosity and asked a short question.
âWhy?â
âBecause I donât want to do you a favor.â
Yao Lechi wanted to ask, âIâm just curious about what youâre asking me,â but she swallowed her words.
She could tell that Li Wei had no intention of talking.
Thankfully, Li Wei left a hint before leaving.
âI donât want to be on good terms with a certain Jin clan.â
Yao Lechi didnât understand why the Jin clan suddenly appeared, but she vaguely got the idea.
The reason the Knight of the Earthquake covered his face was because there was a secret rumor that it had something to do with the Jin clan.
* * *
After contacting Seodol, Huang Zhihuâs mood hit rock bottom the whole time.
It was inevitable that I needed Seodolâs help to make the next move, but it was also half Hwang Jihoâs fault.
âIf youâre going to feel so bad, why did you buy clothes there?â
Not long after Hwang Jiho and Seodol contacted each other, messages poured into my device.
There was no line about what they talked about, but there was a lot of talk about clothes that Hwang Jiho had bought for me at Neuru.
[Cheat] Hwangho seems to have a great eye for aesthetics. Among the clothes that Jo Ui-shin had planned to wear when he became Neuruâs ambassador, there were some that seemed like they would go out of style in half a year. However, Jo Ui-shin didnât give permission, so there was no use for them.
Seodol seemed to have prepared a lot of things for the ambassador that I didnât even ask to be.
Cheatâs long message continued in eerie formality.
[Kwidoli] So I just released it, even though it was a pity. Maybe Jo Ui-shin would see it and like it and buy it.
[Kwidoli] But Hwang Ho chose all of them and ordered them. As expected, my decision was right. Hwang Ho and I have really similar tastes.
I donât know what was right, but I found out that Hwang Ji-ho and Seo Dolâs tastes really match.
How about showing this message to Hwang Ji-ho to calm him down when he starts talking nonsense later?
Regardless of the outfit, I felt a little better thinking that I got a good weapon.
Hwang Ji-ho drank his tea with his eyebrows furrowed, but he waited until his tension eased a little before speaking.
âDid your conversation with Seo Dol go well?â
âYeah, it went really well, to the point of making me feel bad. Seo Dol was talking as if you were already the ambassador of Neuru.â
I didnât ask about that conversation.
Hwang Ji-ho continued to grumble.
âSeo-dol talks a lot when heâs in a bad mood. Whether itâs good or bad. I donât want to deal with him because thereâs nothing to gain from it.â
Thatâs true.
When heâs in a good mood, he talks at length in formal language, and when heâs in a bad mood, he talks informally.
But it didnât seem like the problem was just Seo-dol talking too long.
âHyung Ui-shin, the plague spread by the leader of the Seo clan reacts according to his mood. When heâs in a good mood, the disease, his deepens, and when he feels bad, the disease spreads widely.â
âItâs just as Eunho said. The difference between feeling good and bad for a moment isnât that noticeable, but a lot of time has passed, and since that ratâs mood has been jumping around like crazy these days, the results will be worth seeing.â
I thought I understood why the other Jin clans were disgusted whenever Seodol got excited.
Itâs horrible that an incurable plague spreads, but the disease he spreads depending on whether he feels good or bad gets like that.
I could understand a little bit the intention of the 12-horse alliance to keep him tied down, and the position of wanting to expel him.
Of course, I only understood, but Seodol felt deep in his bones that he had to be tied down by the 12-horse allianceâs non-aggression pact to be safe.
âSince Seodolâs mood just got really good, maybe⦠⦠.â
The plague Seodol spread on the knights might have gotten a little worse.
