Hyeonu entered the party venue and couldn’t help sighing. He had been to five-star hotels before, but this was different from any hotel he had ever been to. The old-fashioned design, reminiscent of a medieval royal palace, showed what glamor was.
The party started with Jamie’s congratulatory speech. Then Mason came to Hyeonu and questioned, “Brother, what did you want to say? I’ve been wondering about it for a few days and couldn’t sleep.”
However, Mason was lying. Mason had a great idea of what Hyeonu wanted to say thanks to John’s investigation.
-Nike Management recently contacted a team in South Korea. Quency’s policies are making it difficult to create a new club. The only person in Nike who can make such a request is Alley Leader. He seems to be thinking about making his professional debut.
‘I am finally going to be a pro gamer,’ Mason thought.
Being a pro gamer was Mason’s long-term dream. Since coming into contact with virtual reality games, Mason had challenged himself to become a professional gamer but failed. He had talent, but that was it. Mason didn’t want to become a professional gamer using his family’s power. Otherwise, he would’ve resolved everything with money. After all, it was easy for someone with Mason’s money and power to set up a club for himself.
Before Arena, Mason hadn’t been able to figure himself out and had played a different class in every game. Then, in Arena, he became a magician. Mason realized it after playing a magician. This was it. He could become a pro gamer if he was a magician. However, at that time, there were no teams that wanted a magician. The teams needed close range damage dealers responsible for PvP.
“Ah, that? Let’s go to a quiet place to talk. We can do it here,” Hyeonu replied.
He and Mason entered a room in the corner of the party hall. Seeing Mason sit down, Hyeonu took off his mask after closing the door. Then he asked, “Would you like to be a pro gamer with me?”
“Pro gamer?” Mason looked like he was surprised by Hyeonu’s words. He seemed to have heard unexpected words.
“Yes, a pro gamer. I’m preparing it now, but they’re all new people. You will be the team’s first recruit and the only magician player.” Hyeonu’s face was a bit red because he was drinking, but his expression was more serious than ever. He showed that he had confidence in the future.
“I like the idea. I also want to be a professional gamer. It won’t be hard to get to the top if I play with you.” Mason agreed happily.
He was originally going to do it anyway, but Hyeonu’s expression made him feel more comfortable. Mason knew that this person would never fail. Hyeonu opened his mouth and said, “Still, you have to know something. I’m only going to do it for one season.”
“It is the same for me. I think one season is sufficient,” Mason concurred.
“I hope so,” Mason said.
Then the two of them shook hands.

Hyeonu sent Mason out of the room and wore the mask again. Then he started wandering around the party looking for someone. Soon after, Hyeonu approached a man. “Brother, did the two of you come here just to eat? Come with me.”
The one Hyeonu was looking for was Kim Seokjung.
Naturally, Gang Junggu was next to Kim Seokjung like they were needle and thread.
“Little brother, I naturally have to go if it is you. Junggu, let’s go,” Kim Seokjung said in response.
The three of them each grabbed a glass of champagne from a hotel staff member and walked into the room where Mason and Hyeonu had talked.
“Brother, how do you like the party? It is the first party I’ve been to, but I think it is okay,” Hyeonu remarked.
“I’ve been to one or two. Well, is there anything special about it? It is just good to enjoy this with you,” Kim Seokjung replied.
“My brother originally doesn’t like a place like this. Hyeonu, he’s only here because you called. Understood?” Gang Junggu said.
Hyeonu nodded at Gang Junggu’s words. He too could tell that this was the case. Compared to this type of party, Kim Seokjung preferred to drink alcohol in a noisy local pub. Hyeonu asked, “Brother, is your proposal from last time still valid?”
Kim Seokjung’s relaxed eyes became fierce and bright at Hyeonu’s sudden words.
“Suggestion? Did I make a suggestion? Junggu, do you remember?” Kim Seokjung shook his head like he didn’t know and glanced at Gang Junggu.
However, Gang Junggu didn’t remember either. The two of them didn’t remember, so Hyeonu repeated the suggestion. “It is the suggestion that you will give me territory if I join the guild.”
At Hyeonu’s words, Kim Seokjung clapped his hands like he suddenly remembered. “Ah, of course. At any time. You can gain one even if you don’t give any contributions. Are we lacking money?”
“There is no need for that...”
Gang Junggu interrupted Hyeonu. “You don’t need to be burdened. It’s fine as long as you want it. In any case, joining a guild isn’t a big deal. It is just being tied to one fence. That’s it. We don’t want anything from you, right?”
Gang Junggu’s words were lodged in Hyeonu’s heart. They didn’t want anything. They just wanted to do it for him.
“Junggu is right. Little brother, what would I want from you? Money? I have hundreds of times more than you. Am I risking my life in Arena? It was because Junggu suggested it that I started. It just means I can see your face more often than now. People of the same guild often contact each other. That’s it.”
“Brother...” Hyeonu’s feelings for them deepened. He could feel the consideration of the two people.
‘I’m very lucky.’
Hyeonu had a friend, Yeongchan, who might be noisy but always treated him like family. Now there were also these two brothers who cared for him. Hyeonu’s eyes became red. “Thank you. I will definitely repay this kindness."
“What kindness? It is just a gift. If you’re grateful, come visit me later.”
Kim Seokjung couldn’t see Hyeonu’s face, but he noticed from Hyeonu’s trembling voice that he was crying. However, Kim Seokjung didn’t show that he knew and walked out of the room naturally with his empty wine glass. “Have I already run out of alcohol? I’ll bring some, so just wait.”
