Chapter 172

Chapter 172: Pangaea World (pt . 2)

It wasn't possible for a normal adventurer to capture a level 50 Gorgatris alive .

It might be possible to kill it in a raid, but it would be impossible to capture it alive and bring it to Earth .

"How about if it's a giant guild or a clan?"

"Also impossible . There's a limit to adventurers . For example, is it possible for a caveman to kill a modern-day soldier?"

"That bad, huh…?"

"That's the difference between a Lord and an adventurer . "

"Hm… Looking at you makes me believe that . President Moon, that cheeky old man… Looks like he's gotten himself a Lord as his partner? Maybe I should be a little more careful from now on . "

"Careful?"

"Don't we have a new competitor now unlike before when we were almost monopolizing South Korea?"

"Hmph, what competition?"

Kang Chul-In smirked .

"There is no competition for me . "

"Huh?"

"Who dares to?"

"Ha…"

" . . . ?"

"Sometimes, it's not very good to be that confident . "

As if he were talking from experience, Old Man Kwon gave advice .

"The world is wide, and there are many strong people . I, myself, also thought that I was definitely the strongest in South Korea . That changed when I met my sworn brother . Oh, I'm not saying that you should look down on yourself . I'm just saying that sometimes you need to know to lower yourself, and that you shouldn't look down on…"

"Old man . "

"Huh?"

"How many lords do you think are stronger than me?"

Kang Chul-In's sudden question startled Old Man Kwon .

"You mean your rank?"

Old Man Kwon seemed to speculate for quite a bit of time, and opened his mouth cautiously . He knew that Kang Chul-In was a Lord, but he didn't have any information on the Lord rankings .

"Maybe 15th…?"

"1st . "

"Kuk!"

"I'm 1st on the Overlord rankings . "

"Huk…! You were an Overlord? A-And, you're ranked 1st?"

Old Man Kwon was extremely shocked .

He knew how strong Kang Chul-In was, but he didn't know that he would be the strongest .

"You disappoint me . I didn't think that I would need to tell you myself for you to know that . "

Kang Chul-In spoke, his face stiff .

"N-No!! I-It's just a misunderstanding . "

"No, I know how you think of me now . "

"I told you, it was a mis…"

"Looks like I'll have to go look for a new partner . One that doesn't think lowly of me this time . "

"N-No, it was my fault!"

Realizing he had made a mistake, Old Man Kwon begged .

"Huhu . . . Huhuhuhu…"

Old Man Kwon laughed embarrassedly, and tried to appease Kang Chul-In's anger .

"Hm… What can I do to make it so that you're not angry at me anymore?"

Old Man Kwon offered .

"If you can calm down, there's nothing I can't do . Come on, just tell me what you want . I'll do it for you . "

"Ferrari . "

" . . . !"

"I don't have a Ferrari in my collection . "

Old Man Kwon realized---

Dammit!

That he had been baited .

It was the 3rd time now, after having to give Kang Chul-In a Lamborghini Sesto Elemento, and a Bugatti supersport .

"I-Is that so? Haha… There can't not be a Ferrari in your collection…! S-So, the model that you want…?"

"LaFerrari . "

"U-Ugh…"

Old Man Kwon was startled .

"P-Please forgive me this once… A LaFerrari is practically impossible to…"

"I thought I saw a LaFerrari in the parking lot? Are my eyes weird?"

" . . . !"

"I need to guess whose car that is, then . I mean, the president of the company's car is a porsche, and someone else rides a LaFerrari? I wonder how great that person is, then, for them to…"

"Here you go . "

With trembling hands, Old Man Kwon handed something towards Kang Chul-In . It was a car key, with the logo of Ferrari on it . Even though Old Man Kwon was a Porsche maniac, he also owned a LaFerrari .

"Thanks . "

Laughing, Kang Chul-In took the car key from the old man .

"Don't worry about Pangaea World . They'll die off soon enough . "

"Alright…"

Maybe because he had just been ripped off a LaFerrari, Old Man Kwon's voice was powerless .

"And also the competitors . "

"Right… You're the 1st ranked Overlord, so you'll take care of them yourself . "

"Finally…"

Kang Chul-In added .

"You don't need to be so focused on monopolizing the market . "

"Hm?"

"Even though we are monopolizing the market right now, in the long-term it won't bring good benefits to us, or to the consumers . Sometimes, we need a running-mate in order to compete with us . And…"

Kang Chul-In added .

"There aren't any normal people that aim for a monopoly . All of them were human scum . "

It was something sincere that came out from his heart, aimed at some other people .

-----------

A week passed .

-After the opening of the Pangaea World, an amazing average of 300,000 people have come to visit . It is said that there are at least 50,000 foreigners that have also come to look…

-The city of Seoul will place more police in order to protect the many people visiting Pangaea World, and would like to ask people to temporarily stop visiting Pangaea World .

Although South Korea and the world focused on Pangaea World, the Kang Chul-In family was quiet about it .

Since Pangaea was her hometown, Pangaea World was nothing to Arshelly . To her, the place called 'school' was far more interesting than Pangaea World .

Even though Park Sun-Ja was originally somewhat interested, she also stopped paying attention seeing that both Kang Chul-In and Arshelly didn't seem to care whatsoever .

I'll return in 2 days .

This was the first thing that Kang Chul-In thought as he opened the door to his house .

He was planning to take care of internal affairs, personal training, and also hunting for items .

Basically, it meant that he would throw away all interest in hunting Rothschild down, and prepare for the upcoming dragon hunt .

I'll need to call that idiot .

Kang Chul-In thought of the pushover, Dorian .

"Wow! This is so tasty!"

He heard a somewhat familiar, and boisterous voice somewhere . It seemed that person was eating something .

"Oh, is it good?"

Park Sun-Ja's voice could also be heard .

"Yes, it's amazing!"

"Hohoho~! It makes me happy that Dorian likes it . "

Speak of the Devil . . .

"Is it possible for me to visit here often?"

"Of course~! Actually, my son doesn't have many friends . Maybe it's because of his somewhat cold personality, but it would be great if you came to visit and take care of him . "

"Pft… I knew it . That guy's personality is absolute tra---, I mean . . . s-sorry . "

"No, it's alright . It's not like his personality has ever been good… But Dorian, please take care of him, and stay near him, okay?"

"Of course! Haha! Actually, even this time I helped Chul-In out a lot . That guy actually relies on me a lot, even though he doesn't seem to realise it . Hahaha!"

And Kang Chul-In's response to that---

Where does this idiot think he is?

Wasn't good .

"Ah~! This is really good . Amazing . "

Not realizing that the Grim Reaper had come, Dorian continued to eat his gan-jang gejang, or soy crab .

"What are you doing in my house?"

Kang Chul-In growled .

"Oh, I'm eating . Kang Chul-In, your mother's cooking is amazing! Ah~! British food is absolutely terrible compared to this . Can you let me take some of the… Wait a minute…"

Tak…

Finally discovering that Kang Chul-In was here, Dorian accidentally dropped the chopsticks and spoon he held .

"S-Son?"

Park Sun-Ja also had a startled expression on her face when she discovered Kang Chul-In .

"I'll go to the shop since I'm a little busy . You two have a nice time~!"

Park Sun-Ja quickly left .

She had betrayed Dorian .

"K-Kang Chul-In?"

"Absolute trash…? I didn't think that's what you thought of me . "

"N-No…!"

"And . "

Kang Chul-In grabbed the back of Dorian's neck, and spoke .

"Where do you think this is, for you to be taking food home?"

"W-Well… we're friends…"

"Soy crab… does that even fit a British person's tastes?"

"It tastes good . I mean, Britain's food is the world's verrrrrrrry worst . "

"Whatever . "

"H-Huh?"

"I need to have a conversation with you . "

"U-Uh… Alright . "

Without realizing what was in for him, poor Dorian followed Kang Chul-In .

10 minutes later .

"Sob… Sob…"

His eyes now completely swollen, Dorian licked his spoon while sobbing .

Seeing as how he could still eat after going through the 'mental training', it was obvious that Dorian was quite 'tanky' .

"H-How could you…?"

"Yeah, but who told you to come inside my house, take my food, and curse at me?"

"I mean…! We're friends… Huk… Sob… I, I-It hurts…"

"Stop eating . Have you been starved before or something?"

"So mean… Hmph…"

"Why are you even in Korea?"

"Oh, that?"

Suddenly laughing, Dorian took out a ticket from his pocket and shook it in front of Kang Chul-In's eyes . It was a VIP entrance ticket for Pangaea World .

"Tada!"

" . . . "

"Huhu… I bought it for 450 USD on the black market . "

"Idiot . "

"Huh?"

"They say that no matter how expensive it is, you can get it for half the price . "

" . . . "

"Stop being a pushover . "

"Hmph…"

Realizing he had been tricked again, Dorian looked depressed .

"Not to mention,"

Speechless, Kang Chul-In looked at Dorian .

"Why are you even going there in the first place? You're a Lord, not an ordinary human . "

"I mean, there could be some monsters or plants that even I don't know . I thought this could be of some help when I write my encyclopedia . "

"That encyclopedia of yours…"

"Hmph! You were the one that told me you were interested in the first place to approach me!"

"I don't remember . "

"Hmph! You liar!"

Dorian pouted .

"Anyway, I came just since I was on the way . So, you wanna go with me to Pangaea World the day after tomorr . . . ? A . . . Aghhh!"

Noticing Kang Chul-In's terrifying expression, Dorian started to run for his life .

----------

Two more days passed .

Kang Chul-In still wasn't interested in Pangaea World .

Vrooom!

Riding in a supercar that had a V12 engine attached to it, Kang Chul-In raced through the road… this was not an accurate description .

Dammit, the traffic .

Seoul's traffic conditions were terrible for a supercar to race through freely .

Wiing!

While Kang Chul-In was bored, a random phone number called him .

"I don't need any mone---"

-It's me!

But unexpectedly, the one that called him was Dorian Explorer .

"What's up with this random phone number?"

-That's not the problem right now!

"Then what is?"

-Who made Pangaea World? Was it you?"

"I'm not interested in losing money . "

Kang Chul-In cut off Dorian's words .

-Really? Then who was it?

"What do you mean by that?"

-This place--- It's amazing! There are even monsters that are level 60!

"Level 60?"

At that moment, Kang Chul-In was confused .

A level 60 monster, all of a sudden?

Was that the true capabilities of Pangaea World?

-It's amazing! There are a bunch of high-level monsters everywhere! Wow… they made this place really well . If it wasn't you, then who made this theme park? Is it a Lord that you know? If it is, can you introduce me to them? Please?

At that moment, Kang Chul-In nearly doubted Dorian's words .

A bunch of high-level monsters are there? Is that even possible?

Kang Chul-In had previously thought that it was at the level of a zoo, but apparently that wasn't the case .

It was obvious that the person behind Pangaea World was an extremely powerful and rich Lord that had completely prepared for this .

"Are you for real right now?'

-Yeah, I'm serious . There are even a lot of Level 50 monsters here! Wow… how did these people even manage to bring all of these monsters in here?

"I'm going . "

-You're going to come?

"I need to take a look at it myself . "

Saying that, Kang Chul-In immediately turned his car towards Yongsan, where Pangaea World was located .

Why?

South Korea wasn't a big market .

Listening to Dorian's words, it was clear that there was even more money used to build this 'Pangaea World' than he thought .

But no matter how much he thought about it, he thought that it was a waste of money .

He might be able to understand if this was built in the U . S, China, or even Japan, but South Korea? What was the reason?

He needed to take a look at it himself .

Vroom!

And luckily, the road started to clear up, allowing Kang Chul-In to accelerate .

------------

"Hmph!"

Riding in a BMW i8, Kwak-Jung stared at the Ferrari that was in front of him, and snorted .

"Stupid Ferrari… Stupid rich people… They only know how to spend their money since they have good parents to take care of them!"

Kwak-Jung was angry, since he had been awarded the White Rain Fan instead of the Ferrari that he had desired so much . And now that he was looking at a Ferrari on the road, it had made him pissed .

"Brother, chase it!"

Kwak Jung-Mi, who was sitting next to him, said enthusiastically .

"Hey… that's a Ferrari . "

Kwak-Jung spoke, depressed .

"With this car, I can only bite it's dust . "

It was true .

Even though the i8 was a good car, it wasn't able to compare to a Ferrari in terms of speed .

"Brother! Is that the best you can do?"

"Huh?"

"Brother, aren't you an adventurer?"

"W-Well, yeah…"

"Then aren't you supposed to be good at driving too?"

It made sense .

After all, an adventurer had better specs than a normal human: better vision, reaction speed, reflexes, and more .

"Hmm…"

"Chase it!"

"S-Should I?"

"You can do it!"

At Kwak Jung-Mi's cheer, Kwak-Jung grabbed the handle harder .

"Fine! Whatever, stupid Ferrari . "

Since the car itself was lacking, Kwak-Jung tried to make up for it in terms of pure driving skill .

"Go, Kwak-Jung! I choose you!"

" . . . Am I a pokemon or something?"

"Go already! That person's already leaving!"

Kwak Jung-Mi shouted, pointing at the Ferrari .

"F-Fine…!"

Kwak-Jung started to chase the Ferrari .

Although, he had no idea that the person who was in that Ferrari would be someone he would regret chasing after .
