I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 132
S-Rank Summoned Creature (2)
Rachel, who contacted me, asked straight to the point.
[Rachel: You pulled an S-rank summoned creature, didn’t you?]
What the hell.
How did she know?
Did she install CCTV in Yubaek City or something?
[Rachel: So, what came out?]
[Baek Jin-woo: What are you going to do with that information?]
[Rachel: What do you mean? We’re allies. You won’t even tell me that much?]
[Baek Jin-woo: What does that have to do with this? Then you should also hand over all the information about Golden Dragon, Baekho, and Great Wizard.]
[Rachel: Tsk, I have nothing to say to that.]
[Baek Jin-woo: So, did you really contact me just to ask if I pulled an S-rank summoned creature?]
[Rachel: No, no, that’s not it. Someone will be coming to see you soon.]
[Baek Jin-woo: Hm? Who?]
[Rachel: Olivia Abernathy]
[Baek Jin-woo: Why would she…?]
Baek Jin-woo scratched his head.
Olivia, the one who uses that A-rank Arbitrator… The 7th ranked woman in the world…
I remember.
Those venomous eyes of hers.
[Rachel: Hehe, don’t hate her too much. She completely became your fan after this match.]
[Baek Jin-woo: Huh? …What?]
[Rachel: Hahaha, she said she never thought there would be someone who could beat me. Anyway, when she arrives soon, greet her well! She’s a good kid. Please!]
What the hell.
She’s suddenly coming to visit without any prior arrangement?
It was literally true.
About 30 minutes after receiving the contact?
Rumors spread that Olivia was visiting Korea, and another 30 minutes after that.
There she was, right in front of me.
“Jin-woo oppa!”
A remarkably tall Westerner was grinning widely and bouncing around.
“…”
I found that sight quite awkward because…
Don’t people originally have a certain atmosphere about them?
Olivia just gives off a slightly cynical feeling just by looking at her face.
Seeing her act so friendly like that gave me a slightly creepy feeling.
“You heard from Rachel unnie, right? That I was coming.”
“Sorry, but were we close?”
“Ahaha, this, this…! Don’t put up such a wall. I brought information that will make us have no choice but to become close.”
Swish swish.
She waves something clutched in her hand.
“What is that?”
“Let’s go inside and talk first! You’re going to leave a guest standing out here like this?”
“Hmm.”
I don’t know what it is, but.
It seems like she brought something tempting…
Should I let her in for now?
“Wow… Nice building.”
Olivia, who entered the Yubaek headquarters building, looked around.
The lobby connected from the 1st to 3rd floor with an open feeling and luxurious marble floor welcomed her.
Taking the elevator up, there was a reception room on the middle floor.
The place with the prettiest view.
It’s the place Yu Ji-a put the most effort into decorating to give a first impression of the company.
After going in and sitting down, the resident staff brought coffee and tea.
“Information that will make us have no choice but to become close?”
Baek Jin-woo asked directly.
He wanted to quickly know what she was thinking when she visited this place.
“Oohoo! Unnie said so, right? She doesn’t know how you did it, but you probably have the ability to summon old summoned creatures that were patched and disappeared.”
Slurp!
She took a sip of tea.
I don’t know what kind it was, but it seemed like quite expensive ingredients were used.
“Wind Fairy, Training Instructor, Explosive Dragon Mage… Things like that.”
“That’s right.”
Baek Jin-woo nodded.
At this point, there’s nothing to hide anyway.
The summoned creatures he has are the only EX-rank summoned creatures in this world.
“So.”
Thud!
Olivia put down what she had been holding in her hand onto the table.
“You’ll need this incredibly badly, right?”
Her expression showed some kind of irrepressible pleasure.
So.
What is that?
Baek Jin-woo’s body stiffened after receiving Olivia’s information share.
[Guaranteed Summoning Scroll]
[Grade: A-rank]
[You can guaranteed pull any desired A-rank summoned creature.]
Crazy!
An A-rank guaranteed summoning scroll?
‘Wow, something like this existed?’
This is the summoning scroll Baek Jin-woo needs most at this point.
Aso.
And Mamyo.
It’s a summoning scroll that can pull either one of them.
“…Where did you get this?”
“Hey, why are you acting like an amateur? If I tell you that, we can’t negotiate!”
It’s probably not from the lower floors of the Tower of Trials.
At most, they only give B-rank guaranteed summoning scrolls there.
A-rank means…
It’s from the high floors of the Tower of Trials…
‘Did Rachel get it?’
That’s probably the most likely scenario.
It’s a type of summoning scroll that even Baek Jin-woo, who’s been around for 10 years, is seeing for the first time.
‘Phew.’
She pulled out too powerful a card from the start.
“You said negotiation? What do you want?”
“…The S-rank summoned creature oppa pulled.”
“What?”
Baek Jin-woo frowned.
“My sister said so. To you, this single piece of paper would have dozens of times more value than a regular S-rank summoned creature. On the flip side, for me, the value of an S-rank summoned creature is greater than this scrap of paper.”
“So you’re suggesting we trade?”
“Yeah. If we both think more highly of what the other has, then we should exchange. You’re even planning to win the 5th World League, right? You’re in a position where you can regularly get one S-rank summoned creature per year anyway… It’s a profitable deal.”
Ha.
She wasn’t wrong.
Honestly, no matter how good the Thunder Bird is.
Compared to Aso or the Demon Cat, it’s a step down.
‘Especially Aso.’
The sooner I get Aso, the better.
Because it’s a growth-type summoned creature.
At first, it’s so weak you’d wonder how this could be A-rank, but when it’s equipped with all martial arts by Hunggyo…
‘Whew.’
It produces unimaginably destructive power.
How overpowered must it have been for a balance patch to be implemented just because of those martial arts.
“Still, giving away an S-rank is crossing the line a bit. The one I drew this time is also incredibly useful.”
“Come on, if you think about it that way, where in the world is there a useless S-rank?”
“Two.”
Baek Jin-woo held up his index and middle fingers.
“…What?”
This time Olivia frowned.
“Two? Are you kidding? Do you know how much my sister went through to get this…!”
“As expected.”
Baek Jin-woo grinned.
“So Rachel did get it?”
Oops!
Olivia smacked her forehead with her palm and cleared her throat.
“Ahem, right. She got it as a reward from the 50th floor of the Tower of Trials. We wish we had two too! But we really don’t. I’m serious. You can even use that Mind Reading Squad thing or whatever.”
Everyone had seen the effectiveness of the Mind Reading Squad at the London Casino.
Hmm.
If she’s going that far, it seems to be true.
‘What should I do?’
Give up the Thunder Bird and take Aso?
It’s not a bad choice, but…
‘Even if I climb the Tower of Trials, there’s no guarantee that will come out.’
Baek Jin-woo closed his eyes.
This isn’t something to ask others about.
‘Only me.’
This is a choice I have to make myself.
“If I hand over this S-rank summoned creature, who would end up using it? Rachel?”
“No.”
Olivia shook her head.
“My sister is already feeling burdened raising three creatures. I think whoever has the most suitable attributes would probably use it.”
“Hmm, then you’d have the highest probability of using it.”
“Huh? Why?”
“This summoned creature has lightning attributes.”
“R-really?”
Olivia shot up from her seat.
She operates three A-rank Arbitrators.
The main skill of those Arbitrators is ‘Lightning Strike’!
In this case, it’s actually Olivia who becomes anxious.
Someone from the England National Team using it versus being guaranteed to use it herself are completely different stories.
“I’ve decided.”
Baek Jin-woo grinned.
“What?”
“What you can give me. If you add that on top, I’ll consider it.”
“What I can give? What’s that!”
“You’d know that better than me.”
Simply put, he was asking to see her sincerity.
If her heart was earnest, he would give it; if her sincerity was lacking, he would refuse.
Still, having stayed in the world rankings top 10 for three years, she must have quite a lot, right?
“You have until tomorrow.”
Swoosh.
Baek Jin-woo stood up from his seat.
Actually.
This was a basic negotiation tactic Yu Ji-a had taught him.
‘Don’t say what you want first.’
Usually, the person who shows their hand first loses.
If I say what I want first?
The other party only needs to prepare a tailored card.
If you absolutely must speak first, you should mention something completely unreasonable… But where is it easy to say such things?
But Baek Jin-woo can say it.
Because he’s clearly in the superior position.
“I’ll give you the room, so think it over thoroughly.”
“…”
Baek Jin-woo turned his back and left with a slight smile.
Olivia could only watch him with pursed lips.
“Haah.”
A sigh escaped from Olivia’s mouth.
It didn’t seem likely to work.
Thinking she could get an S-rank summoned creature with just this scrap of paper.
It was quite greedy of her.
‘Still.’
He seemed to show some interest.
That alone was a significant gain.
‘As expected of my sister.’
When she told her to go directly to Korea and probe, and when she said to somehow exchange that for an S-rank summoned creature.
How absurd it had seemed.
‘But this might actually work?’
Olivia had even obtained brief information about the S-rank summoned creature as a condition for keeping it secret.
Thunder Bird.
How beautiful that bird spewing lightning was.
‘I want it so badly.’
Honestly, she wanted to get it even if it meant giving up her entire fortune.
That’s the value of S-rank.
The ultimate decision of the unique class, with only a 1% expected value even after opening 100 ‘Ultimate Summoning Scrolls’ called priceless treasures!
Realistically, the accepted theory is that there’s no way to obtain one unless you become World League MVP.
But?
Now that MVP clearly seems like it will belong to Jinugod.
“Uhaaaaah…”
What should she do!
What should I do!
The next day.
“10 trillion!”
Olivia, who I ran into on the street, shouted.
“I’ll give you 10 trillion won!”
Baek Jin-woo laughed heartily at her bold words.
And then.
“Yeah, go back.”
He immediately rejected her.
You have to reject something like this about 9 times.
10 times might break their spirit, and 9 times is just right for extracting the maximum.
“20 trillion!”
Look at that.
Just how much does she have that she doubled it in less than an hour?
“Yeah, go back.”
“Isn’t that too much? 20 trillion is my entire fortune!”
“Yeah, go back.”
“I’m not going back! I’ll wait right here!”
The way she huffed and disappeared was very much like a woman in her early twenties.
“What exactly are you trying to get out of this?”
Yu Ji-a, who happened to be watching from the side, asked.
He had already explained the entire situation to her.
“I don’t know either.”
“…Excuse me?”
“If I keep rejecting her, she’ll eventually offer everything she can give.”
It can’t be helped.
That’s exactly the appeal of an S-rank summoned creature.
This is what the phrase “truly priceless” is used for.
“What if that really was her entire fortune?”
“Let’s wait and see.”
Baek Jin-woo smiled leisurely, and again after an hour.
“3, 30 trillion won! I can’t do any more!”
Olivia approached again.
Yu Ji-a, who had been waiting with him, gaped slightly.
See?
If you wait, she somehow increases it?
She probably even took out personal loans in her name.
For an S-rank summoned creature, even the government would probably provide loans.
Baek Jin-woo laughed refreshingly.
“Yeah, go back.”
Where does she think she can get a free meal?
Money is nice, but we have plenty of money too.
If she’s really desperate, she’ll have to bring something different.
Something equally priceless.
