I Am Alone EX-Grade Summoner Episode 234

6th World League (5)

Hwang Tae-seop, who received Yu Ji-a’s call, felt that something was going wrong.

Because she wasn’t originally someone who had a stiff voice when dealing with him.

Especially in Yu Ji-a’s case, wasn’t she a senior who had been serving since Player Headquarters!

Just by hearing her voice, he could catch her uncomfortable mood.

What?

What’s happening right now?

Walking at a fast pace, he hurriedly called the secretary’s office.

“Kim the Secretary? Please check the situation at the VIP League table.”

– Yes, please wait a moment.

30 seconds passed.

For reference, the secretary’s office already knew that the golden fox was Baek Jin-woo and the silver fox was Yu Ji-a.

– Ah… Looking at the CCTV footage, it seems the two of them got into an argument with another customer.

“An argument?”

Hwang Tae-seop was dumbfounded.

Was there anyone here who would dare pick a fight with Yu Ji-a?

No, even if you searched the entire world, there wouldn’t be anyone like that, right?

“No, what is the dealer doing! Didn’t you tell the dealer?”

– Well, I’m sorry. I was worried that mentioning the identity of the masked person might affect the dealers, so I couldn’t tell them.

Sigh.

Hwang Tae-seop closed his eyes tightly.

Right, that could happen.

Composure is important for dealers in places like that.

Because even one change in their emotions can have quite a big impact on game progress and customer treatment.

Since even one small change in a customer is directly connected to sales in the hundreds of billions, they had to be even more careful.

That’s why they were pursuing a method of not revealing identities.

It was the company’s policy to treat everyone equally! Don’t treat anyone poorly.

“Do you happen to know who they got into an argument with?”

– Please wait a moment. She’s wearing a tiger mask, let me check her identity.

They verify qualifications before entering the VIP Room.

Therefore, even if someone covers their face with a mask, the company has no choice but to know their identity.

Click, tap tap tap!

The sound of typing could be heard from the other end of the phone, and soon.

– She appears to be the daughter of Hwang Young Construction. Her name is Hwang Na-yeon. Do you know her?

Hwang Na-yeon?

Hwang Young Construction?

What?

A familiar name that I seem to have heard somewhere…

‘Wait.’

Soon Hwang Tae-seop’s mouth fell wide open.

Wasn’t that his uncle’s company?

Hwang Na-yeon was his uncle’s daughter, but actually his father and uncle’s relationship wasn’t very good, so they had virtually no contact.

‘Why is she picking a fight with Yu Ji-a here?’

Has she gone crazy?

Or is she trying to ruin the CEO position?

This is such a hard-earned opportunity!

The shocked Hwang Tae-seop’s steps became even faster.

“Alright, I understand. I’m heading to the scene now, so please sort out the situation! First, don’t let them cause more commotion there and escort them to the reception room!”

And at that moment.

“CEO Hwang?”

Tiger Mask frowned.

If the surname is Hwang, it’s the same surname as hers, so surely…

She couldn’t be talking about her cousin Hwang Tae-seop, could she?

No way.

A mere model ordering her brother around with such a high-handed attitude?

That doesn’t make sense.

It must be a different CEO.

“Well, will things get better when this CEO Hwang person comes?”

“We’re only calling him because of a system error.”

“Ha, still.”

Does she want to keep claiming she has 1 trillion won?

Hwang Na-yeon thought that woman kept putting on airs because of the man next to her.

“Fine, go ahead and call him. But that CEO Hwang person couldn’t possibly be Hwang Tae-seop, the CEO of this place, right?”

“That’s correct.”

“Correct?”

Hwang Na-yeon frowned.

Someone who knows her brother’s number and can order him around?

‘Well.’

Hwang Tae-seop is a casino CEO.

In other words, he has an obligation to serve VVIP customers.

No matter who that woman is, nothing changes.

She is Hwang Tae-seop’s blood relative, and the current Hwang Tae-seop is someone who wouldn’t be inferior to anyone not just domestically but worldwide.

“And since you said you’re related to Fortuna Yubaek, I’m trying to call the CEO to confirm. I want to know how deep a relationship you have to mock people like this.”

“Mocking? I was just stating facts.”

“I was also just stating facts.”

“Let’s see about that.”

Sparks flew between the two women.

Scratch scratch.

Baek Jin-woo just scratched his head.

While inwardly praying for Tiger Mask’s soul.

It was funny from his position of knowing everything.

Hwang Tae-seop?

He’s nothing more than a puppet CEO that Yu Ji-a installed.

Not a complete puppet CEO, but anyway, that’s about what he amounts to when compared.

But she’s mocking and oppressing Yu Ji-a by bragging about her friendship with such a Hwang Tae-seop?

‘What will she do when she finds out the truth later.’

But he had no intention of taking off his mask here.

First of all, having such a low-level conversation in a gambling establishment could be seen as disgraceful, and Baek Jin-woo didn’t want to share his picks with other people.

If he reveals it here?

Everyone will bundle Korea’s victory with Rachel’s 2nd place folder and put money on it.

That could cause big losses for Yubaek.

How much time had passed like that.

Whirr!

The elevator door opened, and a woman with black hair tied in a ponytail appeared first.

She quietly approached the table and spoke.

“I’m sorry, but customers. It’s not appropriate to cause more commotion here.”

She was a secretary of this place.

Kim the Secretary, who had been talking with Hwang Tae-seop.

“Since both parties are important people, we’ll escort you to the reception room so as not to inconvenience other guests.”

Hwang Na-yeon snorted derisively as if she found it absurd.

“Hmph, a disturbance? We were just having a conversation.”

“I judged it to be a situation where conversation could lead to misunderstandings, so I’m trying to mediate.”

Kim the Secretary didn’t lose her smile, and her eyes showed no wavering either.

If she was part of Fortuna Yubaek’s secretarial staff, she was quite an elite.

Yubaek was the most difficult group to join in the entire world, after all.

“If you’re part of the secretarial staff, don’t you know who I am?”

“Yes, I do.”

“And yet you maintain that attitude. Huh, fine.”

Hwang Na-yeon was bothered by the secretary’s attitude, but she decided that causing more trouble here would only be a loss for her.

“Fine. Let’s go to the reception room. It wouldn’t be bad to have a conversation in a better environment.”

Swoosh.

She turned her back first.

Taking advantage of that moment, Kim the Secretary bowed her head toward Baek Jin-woo and Yu Ji-a as politely as possible.

“I apologize. Please come along with us as well.”

“Yes.”

“Let’s do that.”

As the situation was being resolved, the people who had been watching felt disappointed.

“Hehe.”

“It ends like this?”

“I was curious though.”

“Right… They both looked young, but what could their identities be?”

Unfortunately, these people didn’t have the authority to continue watching that entertaining fight.

The reception room where tea and simple refreshments had been prepared.

Thud!

Hwang Na-yeon sat down on the sofa irritably and crossed her legs.

“So, what are you planning to do by bringing us to the reception room?”

Then she glared at Kim the Secretary.

Kim the Secretary looked at the tiger mask with a pitying expression.

‘Crazy person.’

What kind of expression would she make if she knew who she was acting like this in front of?

But she couldn’t reveal the truth here.

It would be rude to reveal the identity of someone wearing a mask with her own mouth first.

“President Hwang Tae-seop is coming now.”

“Hmph, now I get it. How much I’ve contributed to filtering out those pretentious fools for Fortuna Yubaek. By the way, does the VIP team here manage people or not?”

“…”

Kim the Secretary couldn’t answer.

She just squeezed her eyes shut.

She couldn’t bear to watch with her eyes open.

“You said your name was Kim the Secretary?”

“Yes, customer!”

Instead, she answered Yu Ji-a’s question respectfully and bowed politely.

“Why did the 1 trillion system error appear?”

“Since the betting amount was so large, it appears the system couldn’t process it and an error occurred. It was an error that automatically displays when there isn’t sufficient payable balance for that amount.”

“Hmm, that could happen. It needs correction and improvement, doesn’t it?”

“I immediately gave instructions to apply it, and it’s being corrected!”

“Ha.”

Hwang Na-yeon scoffed.

“Listen here, Kim the Secretary.”

“Yes…?”

“Do you think that person has the means to pay 1 trillion? Are you unfamiliar with big money, so you don’t know how much 1 trillion won is?”

“I know that much.”

“And yet you act like this? 1 trillion… Not for business but for betting? Even conglomerate heads can’t do that! Someone in our country who could do it? Well, maybe Yubaek’s President Yu Ji-a could!”

“…”

Kim the Secretary was at a loss for words.

Someone who knows that is acting like this now?

Please, if you have any sense, use it!

“Shall I give you some advice?”

Yu Ji-a smiled.

“Advice?”

“It’s fine to think it’s pretense and believe that. You can have that kind of arrogance of projecting your own limitations onto others. But the habit of openly revealing that and being aggressive about it doesn’t look good for living in this world. You’ll really get hurt badly later.”

“Ha, that’s funny. Arrogance? I’m being arrogant? Aren’t you the arrogant one? I was trying not to say anything.”

Swoosh.

Hwang Na-yeon took off her tiger mask.

“I’m the cousin of President Hwang Tae-seop of Fortuna Yubaek here. I’m a member of the Yubaek Family.”

“Yubaek Family? What’s that?”

Yu Ji-a frowned.

Yubaek’s family was…

It referred to people living in Yubaek City Apartments…

Since they regularly ate together and held festivals, people were familiar with each other’s faces.

But?

Yu Ji-a had never seen a face like that even once.

“What, are you flustered? I revealed my identity too, so how about we both take off our masks and talk comfortably?”

“…”

Hwang Tae-seop’s cousin.

Swoosh.

Yu Ji-a turned her head to look at Baek Jin-woo.

Then she muttered.

‘Sorry.’

She should have properly educated the staff.

They say family harmony leads to success in everything.

You have to properly manage family and close people first for the company to run properly!

Hwang Tae-seop had definitely made a clear mistake.

And.

Clang!

The reception room door opened urgently.

Hwang Tae-seop, sweating profusely and running urgently, entered.

“Oppa!”

Hwang Na-yeon stood up and shouted.

“Do something about these people. They’re just full of pretense and spouting nonsense, it’s so absurd. 1 trillion betting and whatnot, even when a system error occurred, they’re shamelessly insisting! Shouldn’t you manage your establishment, oppa? The clientele is too low-class!”

“…!”

As soon as Hwang Tae-seop heard those words, he had to feel his heart sink.

‘That crazy bitch.’

Who is she talking about and what is she saying!

He had to stay calm.

This moment was the biggest crisis in Hwang Tae-seop’s life.

Unaware of his feelings, Hwang Na-yeon became even more triumphant.

“And oppa. You have status now too. Does it make sense to come running like this just because this woman called? She has a nice figure, but you’re part of the Yubaek Family now. You should play at an appropriate level. Or put me in the company!”

“…Shut up.”

Hwang Tae-seop muttered while breaking out in cold sweat.

“What?”

“Please just shut your mouth.”

She couldn’t bring herself to say “you crazy bitch.”

She was afraid that such vulgar words would dare to dirty the ears of Baek Jin-woo and Yu Ji-a.

Instead, she glared at Hwang Na-yeon with eyes filled with even harsher curses.

“What, what did you just say to me?”

Hwang Na-yeon made a hurt expression.
