Chapter 44: Unexpected Encounter (1)

After parting ways with Ryu Min, Ma Kyung-rok remained seated, deep in thought and murmuring to himself.

Will this amount of information suffice to demonstrate my abilities?

He believed it should be sufficient. After all, there was nowhere else to obtain information about the fourth round.

Now, we must wait to verify its authenticity.

The information relayed by Ryu Min had been nothing short of astounding. Ma Kyung-rok contemplated, Could it be true that such a catastrophic event awaits us? If it were indeed true, then caution was paramount from the very beginning. One should never underestimate the importance of being vigilant in their surroundings.

Suddenly, An Sang-cheol, who was seated next to him, lowered his head and expressed his remorse, I apologize, Director. I allowed my emotions to get the better of me earlier, raising my voice without realizing it

Ma Kyung-rok reassured him, Its alright, Director An. You were simply showing empathy towards me, werent you?

Well since you mentioned it, may I share my thoughts on this matter, sir?

Speak without reservation.

Honestly, I find this person named Ryu Min suspicious. If he can truly see the future why would he need to help us? With such an ability, he could lead a comfortable life without relying on anyone.

He claims that he wants to grow alongside our company. Perhaps he simply desires to accumulate more wealth?

Does he really need a reason for that? With 280 billion, he already possesses more wealth than he could spend in a lifetime.

Yet, human greed knows no bounds. Even someone like me would readily invest if presented with reliable information that guarantees profits.

Even so, it is too risky to place our trust solely in the information provided by one person. Furthermore, the existence of such an extraordinary rune is also questionable.

I agree with your concerns. However

Ma Kyung-roks gaze transformed, akin to that of a predator fixating on its prey.

If he truly is a prophet capable of foreseeing the future, we must ensure his unwavering loyalty to our cause. Imagine the benefits if we could obtain information and prepare for every round. The growth of our company in the process would be an incredible bonus.

But how can we be certain of the prophets reliability?

That is a valid point.

Ma Kyung-roks lips curled slightly.

We will know once we enter that realm. Wont we?

***

As Ryu Min made his way back home, his steps were light, buoyed by the success of his plan. I managed to pique Ma Kyung-roks interest, just as I did in the previous regression. While he couldnt completely convince him, theres no need to worry. Once the fourth round is over, hell be convinced that I am a prophet.

What should I do? I need to meet Juri now.

Delivering it to my home immediately would take time.

Asking him to come to the convenience store seems awkward.

Its also too noticeable, and the location is cramped since its an alley.

Can you come to Seodaemun-gu? Ill send you the address via text.

Yes! Ill be there soon!

After ending the call, Ryu Min sent the address and informed the driver.

Driver, please go to a residential area near Seodaemun-gu Fire Station, not GS24 Yeonhui Branch.

Yes, sir!

The place Ryu Min mentioned was none other than the old house before moving, a shabby multi-family house.

If its there, I should have enough parking space for the car.

Just in case, I should check if theres any mail waiting.

***

Please stop here.

Yes, sir!

After settling the taxi fare, Ryu Min stepped out of the car.

Walking through the narrow old alley to receive the car brought back nostalgic feelings.

It has only been two months since I moved, but it feels like the good old days.

Having lived in a lush 100-square-meter apartment, Ryu Min made a stop at a shabby residential area.

Feeling a sense of disconnect in the neighborhood, it almost felt like coming back to a hometown.

As Ryu Min walked, reading the text message from the dealer, he said he will need 10 more minutes to arrive.

Upon reaching the front of the house, intending to check for any mail

Huh?
