The Regressor Wants To Stop Becoming Stronger chapter 45

I have a thought that comes to my mind these days.

Anyway, the job of a streamer has its limitations.

No matter how much the streamers fly and crawl, they are ultimately non-combat players.

No matter how good a soccer player is at soccer, he cannot be good at archery.

As time passes, it becomes difficult to enjoy active play as much as combat-type players.

In that sense, I think we should enjoy these low-level sections as much as possible.

I guess I have to admit this

‘I’m not a real person either.’

I am a person who has a hard time giving up the fun of playing.

Aren’t they all like that?

I should stop playing games and study, but everyone plays games, right?

I know you should stop drinking and eat healthy, but everyone drinks, right?

You know that smoking is bad for you, but you can’t quit, right?

I don’t think I’m particularly weird.

‘It’s still only open beta service, so I think I can enjoy it a bit.’

If you look at the server as a whole, no matter how good you try on a new server with nothing to see, you won’t get much attention because you’re a kid anyway.

‘Yeah, who cares about a kid like me?’

No matter how much you like soccer, you know the players of famous clubs, but not the promising youth soccer teams in Indonesia or Maldives.

Looking at it in that sense, I wonder if it’s possible to get first place now.

It’s not a rationalization, it’s probably true.

It wasn’t until I passed level 200 that my life began to deteriorate in earnest.

‘Am I a non-combat streamer anyway?’

At least you can use some strength in the section below level 100, but it is difficult beyond that.

No matter how much I think about it, it’s a bit regretful to just let this section flow like this.

Being an all-rounder, he has the trait of being a very useful and brilliant prospect in the beginning.

‘For now, the quality and level of broadcasting content should be maintained as they are.’

If I start rampaging in earnest now, the concept of my broadcast will be set that way.

A channel where streamers shoot unmatched.

But this isn’t long lasting.

It would be so fortunate if I could retire at a low level, but I also have to think about cases where I can’t.

Because I have become a human now and have the intelligence to think about the future.

‘It’s still not bad, so I’ll just keep it, and I won’t expose myself playing too directly.’

The method wasn’t difficult.

All I had to do was turn off the broadcast and move on.

‘yes. Only up to level 100!’

Because it is possible only in the beginner section.

Everyone has a time.

Going to Lotte World wearing a headband and school uniform is fun when you’re young, but it’s a bit like that when you get older.

If you become a high level later, you won’t be able to enjoy this period.

‘ah. I think I will live.’

After I made up my mind, a sense of refreshment flooded in.

It felt like the fog that was blocking my way was clearing.

I decided to play as before, only in the beginner section, no more and no less.

“It’s good. I accept.”

“yes?”

Katrina tilted her head.

“I haven’t even told you what it is about yet?”

“it’s okay. Let’s listen.”

The standard way to start with a quest is to first accept it.

If you follow this and that, you can’t do anything.

I grew up like that, and eventually became the sword king of Korea.

In an instant, the blood boiled.

‘Robbing Katrina’s jewelry store fearlessly?’

He said Katrina had stolen a pair of valuable necklaces while he was away from the store.

The face was also caught on CCTV, and Katrina released her own information network to identify the suspect.

“Then do you catch it yourself?”

“Because it’s an open beta period. It’s hard for me to exert direct physical force on Earth’s natives. You should also pay attention to the Merchant Association. Besides, if I make a fuss for nothing, my credibility for failing to protect my belongings will only go down. It is difficult in many ways.”

Fortunately for the thief who stole Katrina’s necklace.

If Katrina moved directly, the torso and head would have been separated.

For reference, Katrina has a lot of money, and she runs the Gryphons Mercenary Corps on another server.

If I had been caught by them, I wouldn’t have been able to get my bones out.

‘I miss you.’

The mercenary leader of the Gryphons Mercenary Corps used a spear well.

I was stabbed three times with that window, and I remember it being very fun.

oh For reference, I was stabbed seven times.

Some people claimed that I lost, but it was a sparring that I won even when I saw it while doing front rolling.

“Anyway, I’ll ask you a favor, handsome brother.”

“I see.”

[You have accepted the quest ‘Katrina’s Request’.]

I got out of Katrina’s shop.

‘A pair of Berklav necklaces.’

I don’t know if this is a coincidence or inevitable.

The Berklav necklace was an item I accidentally got around level 80 and wore until just before returning.

The Berklav necklace is just an accessory.

This item has no effect on its own.

However, after undergoing special work on this necklace, if you ask the one-eyed giant to strengthen it using six material items, it will be reborn as a great necklace.

‘It was kind of a scam.’

The memories of that time came back and I felt better.

Come to think of it, I don’t think it was just painful at the time.

It seems like there were a lot of pleasant memories, but… … .

Oh, here it is again.

As time goes by, it seems like the past keeps being glorified, but I have to be careful.

Anyway, I called the angel girl that way.

-I’m a bit busy right now… … Can’t we arrange a time later to meet?

“You’re busy when you’re not in the dungeon?”

Being able to make calls means that you are not inside a dungeon.

Then you’re not busy.

‘Gingoju.’

[Gingoju has been activated.]

aaa over the phone! A scream was heard.

– I’m going, I’m going now. Please, stop, stop.

see

Wasn’t too busy either.

Song Ha-young took a taxi and came all the way here.

“Why do you lie about being busy?”

“It wasn’t a lie. I was really busy.”

I decided not to listen because it seemed like he was trying to tell me his unfair story.

“Would you like to confess your unfair circumstances and listen to Gingoju, or would you rather not talk and listen to Gingoju?”

“I am not sorry at all. lol.”

It would be peaceful and good if this happened right away, but I don’t know why it goes like this.

I asked.

“Do you know them?”

“Yes?”

I put out some pictures.

“uh?”

The angel girl lifted up the photo and examined it closely.

“I guess you know? what was his name… … .”

“I heard that the awakening name is Lim Kkeok-jeong.”

“Oh, that’s right, Lim Kkeok-jeong. He’s a thief who works near Sillim-dong. What about this person?”

“I had to steal something from him.”

“You steal?”

At those words, the angel girl suddenly grinned.

I was very excited about stealing.

As expected, the guy who would become a top thief seems to be crazy from the cotyledon.

I gave an approximate story.

“But why are you stealing? Can I take it away?”

I tried to rationally explain the difficult situation Katrina was in, but I shook my head.

I knew how to deal with these madmen.

“Stealing is more fun.”

“but.”

I knew it would be like this.

easily understood.

“Then are you officially requesting me?”

“Um, yes. Let’s make it a request.”

I was about to give an order.

He’s the goose that lays the golden eggs.

You have to feed them a lot to grow up.

“How much will you pay?”

“How much do you need?”

Do you want to call 100 million?

“One… … .”

“10 million diamonds. No less.”

Your standards are way lower than I thought.

I wonder if my sense of reality has lost a bit after going through VIPs like old man Choi Gap-soo or the wind traveler.

“Five million diamonds.”

“That is too little. I have to risk my own life.”

“Seven million diamonds.”

“… … like.”

It was confirmed as 7 million diamonds.

* * *

A formal ‘union’ has not yet been formed.

However, occupations of similar affiliates used to gather together to form forces, and the fastest-growing affiliate was the information/merchant/thief.

One of the founding members of the ‘Black Rose Union’, an alliance of thieves that is currently being secretly created, was the angelic girl Song Ha-young.

“I was going to try my hand, but it turned out well.”

Near Sillim-dong, there is a thief whose hideout is a container named ‘Sanchae’.

His awakening name was Lim Kkeok-jeong.

Recently, he expressed his desire to join the Black Rose Alliance, but he immediately declined.

The thieves of the Black Rose Union have their own rules.

It hasn’t been fully established yet, but there were three main ones.

1. Do not steal things from the socially weak, such as the elderly or children.

2. Do not steal items from non-players.

3. You must not see blood as much as possible in the process of sacred theft.

However, the guy with the awakening name Lim Kkeok-jeong did not keep all three of them.

According to the submitted documents, the level is mid-20s.

He was a thief only on paper, but he was a robber without a trace.

“Recently, I made a middle school student bloody.”

“Why?”

“They said they were stealing.”

“That’s a robber, not a thief.”

“Then how injustice!”

“… … .”

“Besides, do you know what you stole?”

“What did you steal?”

“It’s a cell phone.”

“… … .”

“Aren’t you mad?”

“Where should I be mad?”

That you hit a kid?

That the thief did the robbery?

“You stole something that wasn’t an item? That’s only 500,000 won.”

“… … .”

Are you angry because you stole a cell phone that is a science culture?

Or maybe it was only (?) 500,000 won, so I couldn’t tell if he was angry.

“What is the pride of a thief?”

* * *

Song Ha-young and Cha Jin-hyeok arrived in Sillim-dong.

“Hey, there’s his hideout in the clearing.”

“But can I just rob my partner like this?”

“Because he’s the one who ruins the thief’s reputation, the thief needs to show his true self.”

Cha Jin-hyeok asked what he had been curious about.

“Is it true that thieves have honor?”

“Even thieves have their own pride and pride, right? Because my dream is to become a righteous thief?”

It must be crazy too.

Common sense would not work for a madman, so I thought it was just that.

“I am waiting for you here. I will bring it out soon.”

Song Ha-young started to move secretly using stealth.

‘That container is his hideout.’

I saw an old safe, and when I matched the numbers to open it, I found a pair of Werklav necklaces hidden.

‘Hmm, this much is a piece of cake.’

I put a note on the desk with the word ‘melong’ written on it.

As soon as I tried to get out of the container, my body didn’t move.

‘poison?’

It felt like being poisoned by colorless and odorless poison.

I hurriedly tried to use the antidote, but the lanyard line flew before I could.

The item in the form of a tie-line quickly bound Song Ha-young’s body.

“Got it, rat.”

A man wearing a gas mask came closer.

“Hey, is it a female rat?”

Song Ha-young wanted to be scared.

It seemed that I had fallen into a trap.

‘Damn it. I can’t move.’

Lim Kkeok-jeong came closer.

“P? Ah, were you that angel girl?”

He removed the note from the desk and crumpled it with one hand.

He squatted by Song Ha-young’s bedside.

“It’s because the partnership spirit is so lacking.”

He shoved the ‘Melong’ note left by Song Ha-young into Song Ha-young’s mouth.

“There are rumors that the angel girl is a founding member of the Black Rose Union, but it must be a false rumor. If it’s easy enough to get caught.”

Song Ha-young fell to the floor and tried to untangle the rope somehow.

There was a skill to release the restraint, but it was not activated properly because the mind was greatly disturbed.

“How will you pay for this sin?”

He smiled and scanned Song Ha-young’s face and body up and down.

Then he swallowed his saliva.

“I didn’t know you could be this pretty. If we cooperate well, we can save you, how is it?”

Song Ha-young responded with the most calm expression.

I couldn’t speak properly because of the note in my mouth.

“Oh my gosh. Father? (I played a little prank. How can I cooperate?)”

Perhaps feeling Song Ha-young’s cooperative attitude, Lim Kkeok-jeong took out the note he had put in Song Ha-young’s mouth.

Song Ha-young desperately smiled.

“I played a little bit. How can I cooperate?”

“Wouldn’t you know that better than me?”

He gently scratched Song Ha-young’s cheek with his index finger and touched the nape of her neck.

It felt like snakes were crawling all over my body.

It was clear what he was looking for.

Goosebumps ran down Song Ha-yeong’s spine, but that didn’t matter now.

“like. I failed as a thief, so I’ll pay the price somehow. Do as you please.”

“Did you agree?”

Lim Kkeok-jeong laughed and stood up.

“Let’s each take off our clothes by ourselves.”

He took off the top jacket he was wearing and threw it behind him.

And then, something came out through the jacket.

“100 million!”

It was none other than a dagger that was shot like an arrow.

A dagger was stuck in the back of Lim Kkeok-jeong’s head.

thud!

Lim Kkeok-jeong’s body fell to the floor.

Cha Jin-hyeok was walking.

‘Wow, I finally remembered, Lim Kkeok-jeong!’

It seemed inevitable that he met the Berklav necklace here.
