Only I Have Two Towers Episode 229

Give Me My Money Back

On the way back from Incheon to Seoul.

Yoon Se-won, the Director of External Cooperation Bureau, who had been leaning back in the rear seat, straightened her upper body.

“…Wow.”

A single exclamation burst out.

After doing that for a while, she looked toward the driver’s seat.

“Team Leader Im Woo-gang.”

“Yes… Yes.”

“I’m not seeing this wrong, am I?”

“I’m seeing it too. The Fortress of Rakshasas has been… cancelled.”

“Huh.”

A hollow laugh escaped.

Even seeing it with her own two eyes, she couldn’t believe it.

It was really cancelled?

“Should I pull over for a moment? I think both Team Leader Im and I need to calm down a bit.”

“Yes. Understood.”

The vehicle stopped at a quiet dock area.

Yoon Se-won rolled down the window and took a deep breath.

Breathing in the fresh air helped her calm down somewhat.

“Team Leader Im Woo-gang, answer me honestly.”

“About what…?”

“How confident were you? That the Fortress of Rakshasas wouldn’t open as the Runner said. This is really off the record, so be honest.”

After pondering for a while, Im Woo-gang cautiously opened his mouth.

“It was fifty-fifty.”

“Fifty percent? You’re being generous because you’re a nice person. I was at ten percent.”

“What…? Then why did you proceed…?”

“Well, the Runner’s track record was one hundred percent. And that’s a success rate built by picking only seemingly impossible tasks. What kind of backlash would we face if we ignored that and things went wrong?”

She let out a deep sigh and sank into her seat.

Only now was the tension finally releasing.

The sense of relief she had forgotten about for a while was also washing over her.

Buzz buzz. Buzz buzz.

She looked down at her phone ringing busily.

Rang Peng, Director of External Cooperation Bureau of the Chinese Player Hunter Bureau.

Yoon Se-won’s lips curved up in a long smile.

“Bastaaaard.”

She couldn’t help but curse.

They were the ones who needed the consumable items, yet during the negotiations they acted so arrogant and condescending.

If it hadn’t been an official setting, she would have spat in their faces.

She raised her middle finger toward the phone that kept ringing incessantly.

“Stop calling and get lost quickly. Back to your great nation. Team Leader Im is getting calls too, right? From the team leaders on that side.”

“Yes. Messages are also pouring in.”

“Don’t answer them. It’s obvious they’ll spout nonsense trying to back out of the deal.”

“Will that be okay?”

“It’s fine. Those bastards are all going to get fired anyway.”

The deal between China and Korea was an open secret.

The fact that China got screwed must have already spread worldwide.

From China’s perspective, there’s no greater humiliation than this, so the heads of those involved in the deal are as good as gone.

“Ah, this feels so refreshing.”

Watching Yoon Se-won giggling, Im Woo-gang also smiled.

It had been such a long time.

Since he’d seen Yoon Se-won, who was always scary and prickly, laugh so refreshingly like this.

“Oh right. Let’s tear this up.”

Yoon Se-won pulled out her resignation letter from her jacket and tore it to shreds.

If things had gone wrong, they would have been the ones to lose their jobs.

“What are you doing? Aren’t you going to tear yours?”

Seeing Im Woo-gang just swallowing dry saliva, Yoon Se-won frowned.

“Don’t tell me you didn’t write one? I didn’t think Team Leader Im Woo-gang was like that, but you really have no loyalty.”

“If I quit here, I’d starve to death. I was planning to cling to the Hunter Bureau Director’s pants leg.”

“Amazing. I see you in a new light. I thought you were a bear, but you’re a fox.”

“That, that’s….”

At the flustered Im Woo-gang, Yoon Se-won burst into laughter.

“I’m just kidding, so let’s get going. To survive in society, you need to have some fox-like aspects too.”

Yoon Se-won stretched refreshingly and turned her eyes to the window.

The sky was unusually clear today.

‘But Runner, this person really.’

Watching the scenery glide by, she subtly raised the corners of her mouth.

‘He’s completely insane.’

She was genuinely curious.

What kind of trick would one need to pull to predict a situation like this?

No matter how amazing he was, he was still just one Player.

“Team Leader Im Woo-gang. If we asked Team Leader Jin Yun-ho to tell us who the Runner is, he wouldn’t tell us, right?”

“Yes. It’s almost like a religion for them. It would be the same as asking them to abandon their god.”

“Tsk.”

It was disappointing, but she’d give up.

What couldn’t be done, couldn’t be done.

‘Anyway.’

Yoon Se-won clicked her tongue and wore a faint smile.

‘Congratulations, Runner. You just screwed over the entire world.’

She was already starting to look forward to it.

To see how big a ripple effect his butterfly wings would create.

After finishing my shower, I buried myself in the sofa.

Just an hour ago I was somewhere in distant Northern Europe.

Being home already didn’t quite feel real.

I turned my gaze to the garden.

General Frog standing majestically.

Though his appearance was bizarre with Drakkan’s eyeball embedded in the center of his abdomen, he was a reliable friend with solid performance.

“Home really is the best!”

Kancheo approached with perked ears and sat down beside me.

Since he’d just been dried, his fur was very fluffy.

“Right? There’s no place like home.”

“The yogurt is also really delicious! Would you like some too, Captain?”

“No, I’m going to drink beer.”

“I see!”

While peacefully watching Kancheo’s yogurt mukbang.

“Totally refreshed!!”

Momo burst out of the bathroom and ran to the refrigerator.

Momo roughly threw open the door and looked inside.

“Where’s the yogurt that Momo saved to eat after taking a refreshing shower!!”

I swallowed dry saliva and looked to the side.

Kancheo’s perked ears and spoon movements froze as if someone had pressed pause.

Uh… Hmm! I didn’t see anything.

He smoothly got up and slipped away as if nothing had happened.

“Master! Momo’s yogurt…!?”

Momo, who had been looking around, stopped moving.

He had been caught.

The Yodel Ranger who had been stealing Mohwang’s yogurt.

A brief moment of silence passed.

“Hiyaaaaaaah!!”

Momo launched his body.

A drop kick that landed perfectly on Kancheo’s torso without an inch of error.

Perfect distance calculation.

Bungbung No. 3 and Bungbung No. 4 immediately deployed as the yogurt scattered.

You guys work so hard.

I escaped from the noisy battlefield and logged into the Crown Jackpot site.

Enough time has passed, so it should be settled by now, right?

“Holy mama.”

As soon as I entered my account, I had to cover my mouth.

The number that had been 10 billion had swollen to 700 billion.

“70 times with one click.”

Well done, myself.

I couldn’t help but applaud.

After finishing my self-praise, I pressed the withdrawal button.

I need to withdraw money and go buy gold.

# Beep! An error has occurred!

“Hmm?”

No matter how many times I pressed it, the same response.

I called the number listed on the site.

“Hello. I’m trying to withdraw from my account but I’m getting an error.”

# Oh yes. What’s your user ID?

“Winner Winner Chicken Dinner.”

# Please wait a moment.

Silence continued for a while.

# Yes. I’ve confirmed it. Withdrawal is not possible.

“Why? It’s my money.”

# Why is that your money, you bastard! You deposited it, so it’s mine!

“Oh.”

I was speechless at the miraculous logic.

“So you’re saying you won’t let me withdraw?”

# Are your ears blocked? Stop calling and go wash your feet and sleep. Before I come find you and kill you.

I checked my phone screen after the call ended.

# Your account has been terminated for fraudulent use!

My account Winner Winner Chicken Dinner disappeared in an instant.

I thought it was pretty good naming, but it’s sad.

“So this is how they’re going to play it.”

I had somewhat expected this, so I wasn’t particularly flustered.

It might even be better this way.

“How unfortunate. Truly unfortunate.”

Muttering to myself, I opened the text message I had received from Yun Mi-ri.

And I called Black Wings.

“Hello, Captain Dominic. Could I possibly take a flight right now? Yes. Yes.”

When Dominic asked about the destination, I drew a full smile on my lips.

“Cambodia.”

I’m coming to get you now.

Crown Jackpot Cambodia Branch.

Branch manager Chenda threw her cup.

“Huff! Huff!”

I don’t know how many cups this makes, but what can I do.

My anger won’t subside.

I still can’t believe it.

The system reversing its announcement.

It was a major variable I never anticipated.

“Damn it all!!!”

She wildly swung a golf club.

The dream of hitting it big that had come so close only to evaporate like a lie.

She’d have to cancel the yacht and new sedan she’d pre-ordered expecting the jackpot.

“Branch manager.”

“Speak.”

“We’ve terminated the Winner Winner Chicken Dinner user account. We’ve also completed deleting the 700 billion record from the site. Other users won’t know.”

They had no choice but to cut it off.

It’s not like they’re digging the ground for business – they can’t just hand over 700 billion in cash to some unknown person.

‘Sigh… only 20 billion.’

Though they had swallowed that person’s money for free, what would fall to Chenda after profit distribution wouldn’t be much.

If only the Fortress of Rakshasa had proceeded, they would have received hundreds of billions, so there’s no way she’d be satisfied.

“What about the funds that came in?”

“Well… as soon as the system announcement went up, withdrawal requests have been flooding in.”

She’d like to swallow all of this too, but she can’t.

The moment she touches the wrong money, it would directly affect the site’s credibility, and then things would really get out of hand.

After taking a couple of deep breaths, Chenda walked to the living room’s front window.

Maybe looking at the open view would help calm her heart.

“Branch manager. It’s a call from headquarters.”

“Tsk… they can’t wait a little.”

A call coming before she could even calm her mind.

Frowning, she reached out her hand… CRASH!!!

The front window shattered into pieces with an explosive sound that hit her eardrums.

Branch manager Chenda and the employees fell on their bottoms in surprise.

Their speechless gazes turned toward someone who had entered by breaking the window.

“Damn, that’s really scary.”

Jinhyeok patted his startled chest.

It’s been a while since he jumped down, so his heart is still pounding.

He turned around and gave a thumbs up to the sky.

Renia slowly descended and released his manifestation.

When Renia reached a certain altitude, he had launched him this way.

“Yes, Captain. I arrived safely. I’ll go back alone when I return. Thank you.”

He didn’t forget to call Dominic too.

Dominic had experienced an earthquake in his pupils when he said he’d jump out mid-flight.

It seemed like the first time he’d seen this type of lunatic, so he was quite shocked.

I should buy him some emergency pills later.

“You, what are you, you bastard!”

Chenda, who had barely regained her senses, screamed.

Meanwhile, they’re just casually robbing people without a care in the world.

Even wearing a disgustingly sloppy mask that looks like it was hastily made just now.

How could he not curse at this situation.

“Me?”

Jinhyeok spun around and looked at Chenda.

“Winner Winner Chicken Dinner.”

“!?”

Once again, she was left speechless.

Did she hear that correctly just now?

Jinhyeok took a step forward and continued speaking.

“I’ll give you a choice. Either quietly hand over my money. Or else….”

Jinhyeok smiled as he faced Director Chenda and the Crown Jackpot organization members.

“Get beaten to a pulp and then hand it over. Now, make your choice.”

For a moment, they stood there stunned by the sudden choice given to them.

“Y-you bastard, get him!!”

Chenda and the organization members all kicked off the ground at once.

“As expected, you don’t stray from expectations.”

Jinhyeok clicked his tongue and lowered his stance.

There’s no helping it.

Time to beat them up first.
