I Don’t Want This Reincarnation-Chapter 339

“See you next time.”

Alice left Requiem with her secretary, Theo, saying that she would contact me until the end, regardless of the meeting that ended unnaturally.

When only the team members were left in the conference room, Cheon Sa-yeon, who was touching his mouth, said in a serious voice.

“Han Yi-gyeol… should I leave him to Roheon for a while?”

“What nonsense are you talking about again?”

I didn’t know why the hell Roheon came out. I sighed while ignoring Cheon Sa-yeon and Min Ah-rin, who was also stiffening her face, nodded her head.

“I agree.”

“What?”

“That doesn’t sound like a bad way, Master.”

“What… why are you doing this, Team Leader?”

I thought they would pass Cheon Sa-yeon’s nonsense, but you agreed? Leaving me bewildered, Min Ah-rin raised her voice in a rare way.

“This is not a matter to be taken lightly!”

“As expected, Healer Min Ah-rin understands me.”

“Of course. Now that I even know Deputy Master Alice’s preferences, how can I leave Yi-gyeol-ssi alone?”

“What? Me?”

What did Alice’s preferences have to do with me? The team members, who became serious about me, started to say something one by one.

“It certainly looked dangerous.”

“If we contact Deputy Master Ha Tae-heon, would he take care of Hyung at Roheon for a while? Deputy Master Alice won’t ever go to Roheon.”

“Do you even need to send him there? It seems better to go only during the day and come back to the room at night. That way we can eat dinner and sleep well.”

It was really amazing to see them talking among themselves as if I wasn’t here even though I was obviously sitting in the middle.

“Why are you choosing my place to stay? I don’t like…”

“Besides, there’s another important thing!”

Before I could finish speaking, Min Ah-rin shouted as she banged the conference room desk with the palm of her hand.

“The bigger problem than Deputy Master Alice’s preferences is Yi-gyeol-ssi’s preference.”

“Mi, Min Ah-rin-ssi?”

“You haven’t forgotten everything, have you? Yi-gyeol-ssi’s preference is that they’re an innocent person who goes well with jeans and a white t-shirt.”

“Wa, wait a minute. When did I talk about…”

“Oh, my. That’s the big problem.”

“Come to think of it, he said before that innocent girls are his preference. I can’t believe that preference still persists.”

“No…”

“Deputy Master Alice almost perfectly matched Yi-gyeol-ssi’s preference.”

“……”

I was stunned by this situation where everyone was serious except for me.

There were only those who couldn’t control it already, but a heated discussion ensued between Alice and me about which part the button was pressed. (대체 어떤 부분에서 버튼이 눌린 건지 나와 앨리스를 두고 열기 가득한 토론이 이어졌다)

Even Min Ah-rin, who would normally support me in the position of a normal person, wasn’t on my side right now.

“If Yi-gyeol-ssi falls for Deputy Master Alice and goes to Australia…”

“That’s enough.”

When Min Ah-rin pretended to wipe away her tears and sniffled playfully, I interceded with a sigh. I had to change the subject of conversation at this point because they would do it all day long if I left them be.

“Considering the information Deputy Master Alice gave us, it’s very likely that the Praus Cult caused the gate problem. Can’t you check to see if it’s true?”

“Perfectly difficult, but possible.”

Woo Seo-hyuk, who didn’t say a word in the preference discussion, heard my question and answered right away. Cheon Sa-yeon gave the order in a different way from just now, with a lack of interest.

“Since Roheon is in charge of domestic affairs, it would be better for us to continue to be in charge of overseas. Let’s check the incident in Leo Guild one more time. Find out if Samael was involved.”

“I understand.”

It was true that Alice handed over vital information, but we couldn’t believe it right away. Anyway, since Hyde had time while looking for people related to domestic gates, it wasn’t bad to reconfirm.

“As for the rest, I think we can talk about it again when news comes in from Roheon. I think Ha Tae-heon-ssi will contact me separately. I will organize the contents as soon as I receive them and deliver them.”

“Good.”

“If there’s nothing more to say, let’s end the meeting.”

If I stayed here any longer, they would have had useless conversations about my preference. I got up quickly and others followed me as if they had been waiting for me. Anyway, it was only at times like this that they listened well.

“Woo Seo-hyuk-ssi.”

After leaving the meeting room together, I deliberately slowed down and fell backwards, leaving behind the team members walking in front of me. And I grabbed Woo Seo-hyuk’s sleeve who was following me.

Looking at Woo Seo-hyuk’s black eyes looking down at me, I lowered my voice and asked.

“If Deputy Master Alice sends a message to meet, can you inform me secretly?”

There were many regrets for ending the meeting with Alice like this. In particular, I wanted to hear more about the gate illegal transaction case she explained at the meeting.

If I met them personally and asked them questions, they might answer me and there was a possibility that I would get new information. Seeing that they said they would contact me first, they would probably ask to meet through the Requiem Guild, but Cheon Sa-yeon could hide it, so it was safe to ask Woo Seo-hyuk separately.

Woo Seo-hyuk was more reliable because he was quiet and didn’t intervene when they were talking about preferences in the meeting room earlier. However, unlike the expectation that he would do the favour, Woo Seo-hyuk shook his head.

“No can do.”

“Pardon?”

“I understand what purpose Han Yi-kyeol-ssi is trying to meet, but it’s better not to meet Deputy Master Alice anymore.”

He said no? Woo Seo-hyuk continued talking to me, who was taken aback by the resolute refusal.

“Deputy Master Alice has a very persistent personality contrary to her appearance. You’re going to get annoyed if she just approaches you later.”

“She’s not being persistent with everyone, is she?”

“Since Han Yi-gyeol-ssi has a special ability, you can be the target.”

“You said that more than 90% of the Leo Guild have transformation ability. Most of all, my ability won’t be that big for someone who has wings and can fly like Deputy Master Alice. The information she has is too precious to not meet with her over such a problem.”

Even though I worked hard to convince him, Woo Seo-hyuk shook his head firmly again.

“It doesn’t work though. If you feel the need to get more information from Deputy Master Alice, I or Master will act directly. Don’t worry about that part.”

I was very disappointed because I thought that Woo Seo-hyuk would listen to me.

There was no room to refute what Cheon Sa-yeon or Woo Seo-hyuk said to move directly, so my shoulders slightly droopped and Woo Seo-hyuk, who noticed me for a moment, added.

“Deputy Master Alice is important, but the domestic situation that will be heard in a few days also seems important. We will support as much as possible, so it would be better to get to know about inside Korea first.”

I couldn’t help but laugh at Woo Seo-hyuk’s action to soothe me with a soft voice so that I wouldn’t be offended.

“I know.”

Yeah. Let’s not be in a hurry. The priority now was to wait for information from Hyde to find out.

* * *

It was two days after the meeting that I received the results of the request from Hyde, who belonged to Roheon now.

[His ability is better than he looks.]

Ha Tae-heon, who received the data from Hyde, left a short review. Considering Ha Tae-heon’s personality, who didn’t usually say things like that, it was no different than acknowledging Hyde’s ability.

[It contains all the necessary information.]

“That’s a relief.”

Hyde found out in detail the personal information of the group that accessed the gate illegally in Korea and the address of the gate they accessed.

The target gate was the B-grade gate on the East Sea side of the H37 Area. It was a small gate owned by a guild called Cent (센트).

The grade of the monsters that appeared was similar to other B-grade gates, but the number was small because the interior wasn’t wide. However, there was a special monster that only appeared there.

“Trapper?” (트래퍼)

[Yeah. It’s called a monster that lays various traps on the floor. It’s not easy to find and kill those monsters because they were so small and if you leave them alone, they will continue to set bombs and traps, making opponents difficult.]

I conveyed the contents of the meeting two days ago to Ha Tae-heon. Hearing that, Ha Tae-heon additionally asked Hyde to find out what the most problematic monster was in the targeted gate.

So the result was that Trapper monster. A monster that traped infinitely on the ground.

‘In the case of the Leo Guild, they said it was Dark Hyper monsters that spread poisonous liquid.’

What did poisonous fluid have to do with bomby traps? Even when I heard what Alice said, I guessed that the Praus Cult was making something with the bodily fluids of the monsters, but I had no idea what Trapper was trying to use.

‘…it could be a monster other than Trapper.’

If we didn’t know what it was, we had to move and see it for ourself. After organizing my thoughts, I asked Ha Tae-heon.

“I want to go straight to the people who said they were approaching the gate. Do you have any time?”

[I saw that coming, so I already left the schedule free. I’ll go to Requiem now, so come out then.]

“Then I’ll pass on the call to the people and go down.”

[You can just come down. I already delivered it.]

“Pardon?”

[They were very willing to take you to me. I heard it’s okay for you to spend a few days in Roheon if you don’t mind.]

Ha Tae-heon laughed briefly as if he was having fun and said teasingly.

[A guest from abroad really likes you this time, huh?]

“……”

Unable to withstand the unexpected teasing, I touched my forehead with my hand. Did he share what happened at the meeting with Ha Tae-heon?

No, more than that, I thought he was sincere when he said that he should leave me to Roheon for a while. It was hard for me to know where to point out.
