“Ah, Brother. Where are you?”
The young man’s name was Mason Rockefeller. He was the successor to Rockefeller, America’s top conglomerate, as well as a young man on the verge of making his pro gaming debut.
-I’m almost there. A red car. You got it?
“I know. A Panamera. Ah, I can see it,” Mason said as Hyeonu’s red Panamera entered his vision. The red Panamera stopped exquisitely in front of Mason.
“Get in. We are going to be late,” Hyeonu urged the dawdling Mason.
There was still some time left until the appointment time, but it was tight. During the day, Gangnam was like a full parking lot. Mason didn’t know this and was relaxed. “Brother, we aren’t late. There is still an hour left. Moreover, it’s in Seoul.”
In Mason’s mind, they would get there in 10 minutes, 20 minutes, or 30 minutes. He didn’t know the reality of South Korea.
“Your thoughts will change when you go there.” Hyeonu gestured with his chin to a small hill. Beyond that was the beginning of the road parking lot. Unsurprisingly, cars were continuously lined up beyond the hill.
“How are you? Are you doing well in the hunts?” Hyeonu asked about Mason’s recent situation in order to use this travel time properly.
“Everyone is doing a good job. Isn’t it really good? I was surprised. Uncle Dwayne is also doing well. Brother Heder is good, and Yuri... Leah? She’s doing well too. Sunny... She is a bit nervous...” Mason replied.
He had also entered New World. To be precise, all the players of Crescent Moon now belonged to New World. They signed up to use the infrastructure that New World had built as well as to establish a cooperative bond early on.
‘Everybody is better than I expected,’ Mason thought as he recalled the hunt that occurred before he came to South Korea.
Heder was a tanker with a solid yet soft style, while Dwayne armed himself with heavy equipment. There was no need to talk about Yuri’s use of skills, and there was Mason’s own powerful magic. As for Sunny, Hyeonu asked: “Still, isn’t her class really good? It seems like a much better class than those of the rankers in the videos I’ve seen or the necromancers of other guilds...”
Mason nodded at Hyeonu’s question. “Her class is better than anyone else’s. It was the first time I knew there was such a fraudulent class. Honestly, the classes of our party all work together well. It is truly unique.”
Despite Sunny’s close-to-atrocious level of skill, her class was very good. The undead she summoned were more powerful than other undead. She couldn’t produce huge quantities of them, but every undead she summoned was powerful. In addition, the occasional outburst of Sunny’s magic was bizarre.
He believed in Sunny’s potential and in her rare class, ‘Midnight Sun Witch.’ He also believed in Felion’s Skeleton Staff that he had given her. It was the unique-rated staff that the black magician Felion dropped during the 5th main scenario. The staff had effects that could be called the best, so it was enough to complement Sunny’s skills.

Everyone else made it through the traffic jam and arrived at the meeting point. It started with Moon Doyeong, the owner of Crescent Moon, and followed with Dwayne, Yuri, Sunny, and Heder. Hyeonu and Mason arrived the latest.
‘Why is it so awkward?’ Hyeonu wondered. The atmosphere in the room was too awkward and quiet. It was as if all the awkwardness of the world had gathered together in this place. Five people were sitting around a huge round table, but no one spoke a single word. Everyone was just drinking the drinks in front of them with closed mouths.
‘It is understandable for Dwayne because he is a foreigner, but what about the rest?’
Dwayne was American, and he couldn’t speak the language. So it was fully understandable. However, the rest were Korean. Why were their mouths shut? It didn’t make sense.
“How are all of you? You came too early. By the way, why is it so quiet?” Hyeonu gave a greeting to break the silence.
Only then did people greet Hyeonu.
“I was waiting.”
“Why did you only come now, Oppa?”
Moon Doyeong and Yuri greeted Hyeonu in a warm manner. It was because they were both friends with Hyeonu.
“It has been a while, Hyeonu-ssi.” Lee Hoon extended his hand with an awkward smile and asked for a handshake.
“Your complexion has improved a lot. I’ve been watching your stream enjoyably. Let’s get along well in the future,” Hyeonu said, shaking Lee Hoon’s hand with a bright smile. Then he turned to Sunny and continued, “Sunny-ssi is next? I hope to get along well with you in the future too”
“Yes, yes! I am the same.” Sunny barely managed to receive Hyeonu’s greeting as she fanned her red cheeks with her hand. It wasn’t her normal behavior at all.
“Dwayne, it is an honor to meet you. Welcome to Korea. I’m glad we will be working together in the future.”
“That is what I want to say, Mister Gang. It is an honor to meet and be with you.”
Dwayne and Hyeonu looked at each other and laughed loudly. Hyeonu shared greetings with everyone and controlled the atmosphere. Otherwise, he felt they wouldn’t be able to finish the contract signing today.
‘I have to step forward. Then I can eat and go home.’
“CEO Moon-nim, please give me the contracts that you have prepared. I’ll hand them out myself. Ah! The food will arrive once the contract signing is over. So if you want to eat, sign quickly.” Hyeonu led them humorously like he was streaming.
