Only I Have Two Towers Episode 030

Interference

Jinhyeok and Seira left the department store.

“A fine sword.”

Seira nodded as soon as she saw Ganjang Makya.

Jinhyeok shouted “nice” once again.

Thanks to Jin Tae-gon, he used the money he saved to buy Pino’s Wing Shoes that were on sale.

Tower-exclusive rare item shoes that increase movement speed by 50.

Following Seira would be much easier from now on.

‘I protected it.’

After paying 30 million won for the shoes, he had 100 million left.

Thanks to several strokes of luck overlapping, he was able to avoid breaking his hundred-million-won balance.

“I’m sorry.”

“Huh? About what?”

“I tried to help you buy a sword, but I wasn’t any help at all.”

“Oh right. I haven’t told you yet.”

Jinhyeok told her about the process of obtaining the sword inside.

“So it’s thanks to the swordsmanship I learned from Seira. Thank you, Seira.”

Seira’s eyes widened.

After a moment, Seira continued speaking with a slight cough.

“There’s no need to thank me. Making my master stronger is my duty. And this result came about because master did well.”

Though she said this, Seira’s expression had softened considerably.

“Now eat some ice cream. It’s all going to melt.”

“Ah.”

She seemed to have forgotten what she was holding while apologizing.

Seira took a big spoonful and brought it to her mouth.

“Is it delicious?”

“It’s sweet. What do you call this?”

“Gelato. It’s a chewy frozen treat.”

“What an interesting name.”

Seira smiled and began moving her spoon enthusiastically.

A world full of delicious foods she’d never seen before.

She was growing to like this place more and more.

“It’ll be a bit late if we stop by home, so let’s go straight there.”

“Let’s do that.”

He walked side by side with Seira.

The place he was supposed to meet Cheon Se-yeon was Nodeul Island.

It was about a 20-minute walk from here.

“What should we eat for dinner tonight? Except chicken.”

“That’s difficult. The pig’s feet we had yesterday was delicious too.”

“Except pig’s feet.”

“Even more difficult.”

Jinhyeok rubbed his chin and shrugged his shoulders.

He’d have to manifest Kancheo and Dark later after the appointment ended to ask them too.

‘Well, they should be fine.’

This was the first time leaving just the two of them alone, so he was a bit anxious.

He could forcibly manifest them, but decided not to.

A card payment message that arrived 30 minutes ago.

By now, they should be enjoying the delivered chicken.

‘Those pigs. Ordering four chickens between just the two of them.’

Hopefully they’d eat quietly and deliciously.

Step.

After walking for a while chatting about this and that with Seira.

Nodeul Island came into view.

“I’ll be back. Look around and enjoy yourself.”

After waving goodbye, he walked to the cafe where they were supposed to meet.

“One iced vanilla latte, please.”

After placing his order, Jinhyeok sat down at an outdoor table.

“Ah.”

He should have bought Seira a drink too before parting.

‘There are a lot of people.’

Even though it was a weekday, quite a crowd had come out to the island.

Most were families.

They seemed to have come out for a walk before or after dinner.

He checked the time.

20 minutes until the appointment time.

He planned to leisurely people-watch with his coffee.

“Hello.”

Not long after, he heard a greeting.

Jinhyeok turned his head and made a startled expression.

A neat suit with a familiar logo.

It was the Player Hunter Guild.

“You’re Yoo Jin-hyeok, right?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Nice to meet you. I’m Lee Mi-jin from the Player Hunter Guild’s talent support team. I support Hunter Cheon Se-yeon, one of South Korea’s rankers.”

“Oh yes, nice to meet you.”

“You were supposed to meet Se-yeon here, right?”

“Huh? That’s right.”

“What should we do? Se-yeon can’t come due to a sudden Hunter Guild request. She asked me to come out in her place.”

Jinhyeok checked his phone.

There were no messages from Se-yeon.

“Wait a moment. Let me try contacting her once.”

“Yes, yes. Please do.”

He tried messaging, but Se-yeon didn’t read it.

Voice chat was the same.

“She probably won’t be able to answer. She must be quite busy.”

“I see.”

Mi-jin seemed to have come in place of Cheon Se-yeon and appeared unrelated to Jin Yun-ho.

She didn’t seem to know that he was a Pantheon runner either.

Mi-jin hesitated slightly before continuing.

“I heard Se-yeon has something to receive from you. I think you could just give it to me.”

Jinhyeok made a slightly puzzled expression.

Originally, they had planned to make potions on the spot using materials received from Se-yeon.

Se-yeon also knew that the Strange Potion Crafting Box had 2 uses remaining.

If she was going to postpone the appointment, she would postpone it, but it didn’t seem like she’d ask for the entire box.

Did she realize that Jinhyeok was suspicious?

“I made too unreasonable a request for our first meeting.”

Mi-jin, who had been thinking, made a different proposal.

“If you’re not busy, would you like to come with me? I’ll take you to where Se-yeon is. This would be better than handing over an important item to me, someone you’re seeing for the first time. How about it?”

After studying Mi-jin’s face for a moment, Jinhyeok nodded.

“That sounds good. Let’s go together.”

“Yes, yes. Let’s take my car. I parked it nearby.”

Jinhyeok got up from his seat and followed Lee Mi-jin out of the cafe.

A question arose in his mind.

Would Cheon Se-yeon really be at the place they were going?

20 minutes later, Nodeul Island Cafe.

Cheon Se-yeon entered the cafe and looked around.

‘He’s not here yet?’

It was exactly the appointed time.

Jinhyeok was nowhere to be seen.

‘That’s a relief. He hasn’t come yet.’

She let out a sigh of relief.

Originally, she had planned to arrive 30 minutes early.

She had stopped by the Player Hunter Guild since she had nothing to do until the appointment time.

On her way out after finishing her business, she had wasted time looking for her suddenly missing phone.

‘Damn it. Where the hell did it go.’

She couldn’t even find it, so she’d have to go back there after the appointment ended.

“Wow, it’s Cheon Se-yeon…!”

“Cheon Se-yeon. Cheon Se-yeon. At the entrance.”

She could hear murmuring sounds from here and there.

People were sneakily taking out their cameras to photograph Se-yeon.

Those who had seen Se-yeon from outside were also gathering at the cafe one by one.

Cheon Se-yeon walked to the counter and greeted them.

“Hello. One iced americano, please.”

“Yes, yes!”

While fumbling with the POS machine at the appearance of the super celebrity, the minute hand of the clock passed the appointment time.

“Excuse me. A man didn’t come here alone, did he?”

When she described his features as best she could, the part-timer smiled as if remembering something.

Not only was he the only customer who came alone, but he had a memorable appearance that was easy to recall.

“I think he was taken away by a Hunter’s Guild employee earlier?”

“Taken away? By a hunter?”

“She was wearing a uniform. She had the Hunter’s Guild badge on too.”

“What did she look like?”

“I didn’t see her face clearly, but she had purple bobbed hair.”

Se-yeon frowned.

At least as far as she knew, there was no one with such flashy hair at the Hunter’s Guild.

Just then.

-Someone isn’t interfering, are they?

She remembered what she had heard last time.

Jinhyeok had said that from the perspective of other agencies or countries, Se-yeon was definitely one of the people they would want to interfere with.

Her phone that had suddenly disappeared and the mysterious hunter who had suddenly appeared at the meeting place.

She suddenly felt her blood run cold.

“Where did those two go?”

“It looked like they were heading to the Nodeul Island parking lot.”

“Thank you. Please ring this up. Keep the change as a tip.”

Se-yeon put down a 50,000 won bill and rushed out of the cafe.

Her heart began to race with urgency.

“We’re here.”

Jinhyeok got out of the car and looked around.

The place where the car had stopped was some abandoned factory.

He let out a deep sigh.

‘She won’t be here.’

Lee Mi-jin knew about an appointment that only Cheon Se-yeon should have known about.

That’s why he had followed her once, but it seemed to be a bust.

Jinhyeok searched for something on his phone.

“Follow me. Se-yeon is inside.”

Meanwhile, Lee Mi-jin opened the rusty iron door and nodded her head.

Jinhyeok followed her inside and shrugged his shoulders.

Naturally, Se-yeon wasn’t inside.

“You’re not very surprised?”

Lee Mi-jin, who had entered first, turned around to look back.

Perhaps having achieved her purpose, her words had become much shorter.

“Cheon Se-yeon isn’t here.”

“I know. You’d be an idiot not to know after seeing an abandoned factory.”

“But why are you so calm?”

He didn’t answer this question.

Instead, Jinhyeok made a phone call somewhere.

“What are you doing now…”

He held out his hand to Lee Mi-jin who was trying to rush over.

“I’m not reporting anything, so don’t get scared.”

Click.

# Yes. This is Nodeul Island Cafe.

“This is Yoo Jin-hyeok. If Cheon Se-yeon is there, please tell her to wait a little. I’ll be right there. Thank you.”

Jinhyeok quickly finished what he had to say and hung up the phone.

“What?”

Lee Mi-jin stared at Jinhyeok with a dumbfounded expression.

When he should be reporting immediately to reveal his location, he was worried about someone waiting for him – what kind of person was this?

“Tell her to wait a little? Are you filming a movie? Do you think you can go back there?”

“There’s no reason I can’t go. I just need to turn around and walk out.”

“Pfft… Puhahahaha!”

Lee Mi-jin burst out laughing at whatever was so funny.

It had been a while since she’d seen such a refreshingly crazy person.

“Ha, this is killing me. Really. You’re not in your right mind either. Whatever, what were you going to give to Cheon Se-yeon?”

Jinhyeok took out a potion crafting box from his inventory and showed it to her.

It was hard to tell what it was for just by looking at it, but that didn’t matter.

Yesterday afternoon, Cheon Se-yeon had urgently sought out and purchased expensive dark attribute-related materials.

It was probably a device for making attribute-imbued items using those materials.

“Now that I’ve shown you, let me ask a question too. Where are you from? Judging by your purpose of checking rankers, you must be from another agency or country, right?”

“You’re unnecessarily perceptive. Usually people like that die quickly. Whatever, bring that over here.”

“Take it yourself.”

Jinhyeok smoothly put the box back into his inventory.

Lee Mi-jin’s eyebrows twitched.

“You seem to be greatly mistaken about something. Do you think you can survive by hiding that?”

“Were you planning to kill me?”

“Then did you think you’d leave here alive after coming this far? However, whether you die comfortably or writhe in terrible agony before dying depends on you.”

Jinhyeok exhaled quietly and smiled faintly.

“I see. So you are planning to kill me after all.”

“So…”

Lee Mi-jin began walking toward Jinhyeok, trailing off her words.

Step. Step. Step.

The speed seemed to be getting faster and faster.

“So that’s what you’re planning!!!”

He kicked off the ground and closed the distance in an instant.

As he pulled both hands back, a massive halberd was summoned.

“First, one shoulder!!”

Jinhyeok’s eyes widened at the halberd being swung right in front of him.

Without a trace of deception, he was genuinely surprised.

…This slow?
