Return of the 10th Circle Archmage

"What the hell is this...?"

Relatives were all huddled together in the living room of my uncle's house, panicking.

“Why is the kid like that all of a sudden? Have you ever eaten something wrong?”

The captain, Mun-su Lee, implied it to his close relatives as if asking for consent.

“Isn’t there a bug in your ear?”

“Well… did something like a bug really go into it?”

When the sudden situation struck, they went beyond bewilderment and fell into a coma. I listened to all the noise through the door, and then went out the door.

“We’ll just go. The atmosphere is chaotic.”

At my words, Lee Moon-soo wiggled his eyebrows.

“I haven’t even visited the big house and the second house yet, but where are you going already?”

“Why do I have to go there?”

"what?"

“I came to bow to my grandfather, not to his grandfather, did I?”

“Is this kid? Then why are we here?”

“Who told you to come? Ask the person who told you to come, then.”

“Still, you bastard!”

“Don’t keep doing this bastard, that bastard. 개새끼야.”

“··········!”

When I finally couldn't stand it and spit out abusive language, Munsu Lee looked up at me blankly with a shocked face.

To be honest, I didn't even mix a drop of blood, but if I'm a smiling adult or something, I'll respect it only if it's worthy of respect.

Why should I respect a bastard who only talks behind the scenes like that?

It was my credo that such human garbage should be treated like garbage.

Lee Mun-su bit his lips as if in anger and shouted out loudly.

“Because you’re touching some money right now, it seems like you’re feeling a bit nauseous, so be careful. If you waste it like that, the money will fly away in an instant.”

Lee Moon-soo shouted like that, as if he was pouring a curse. I wasn't crazy. 500 million Rolls-Royce is less than 0.027% of the 1.8 trillion won I have.

Literally using less than 0.02% of my total fortune, selling it as a luxury, pouring curses and curses.

"Hahaha."

“······································································!?”

I burst out laughing spontaneously, grabbing my stomach and squirming. Even Lee Moon-soo, including all the relatives gathered here, became red and green again and was restless.

“I saw a middle schooler who was lucky enough to hit a jackpot, but you can’t last long. I swear..."

“Are you going to enter Korea University this year?”

By cutting Lee Moon-soo's continued curse in the middle, I counterattacked. Then, the buzzing crowd became cold.

“What did you just say?”

“Korea University?”

“A middle school graduate going to Korea University?”“Hey, I didn’t mean to be sane. Being a jolbu makes life seem easy.”

Relatives gathered among themselves and took my words as mere bluffs.

Lee Moon-soo, who represents them, came out again this time, and no matter who saw it, he shed an unpleasant laugh.

"what? What is it?”

“It’s Korean.”

“Because you’re being ignored as a middle school graduate, are you just arguing for nothing because you’re shy?”

“What if I go in?”

“I’ve been lucky enough to learn that I’m a poor student, but I’ve been studying for 19 years, including 12 years of elementary, middle and high school, and 19 years of early education.

“Would you like to bet?”

“What bet?”

At the word bet, Lee Moon-soo's eyes were colored with greed.

I laughed at Lee Moon-soo and raised his betting conditions significantly.

“It’s so easy to just get into Korea University, so I’m going to take first place in the country.”

“Crazy bastard. You don't even know the subject because you have some money, and your pride is skyrocketing? You bastard, don't you think studying will be easier if you're lucky enough to earn some money? Calm down, man.”

“Why are your tongues so cramped?”

"what?"

“I will bet. will you tell me?”

“이새끼가? yes let's Then what are you going to do?”

"Do you?"

“I stake all my fortune. You bet all your fortune.”

“It’s a pity for a nobleman whose only possessions are deposits and debts.”

“What is this bastard?”

I glanced at the Rolls-Royce parked in the alley once, then shouted out in an absurd tone.

“Even if you sell just one foreign car that you brought outside, let alone all your fortune, it’s money you can live with for the rest of your life. you know?”

“I want to see this child!”

Then, my father's younger brother and my uncle, Lee Kang-chun, intervened and shouted as if to mediate.

“Yes, you walk the car. My brother will bet all his fortune.”

Lee Kang-chun whispered into my first uncle Lee Moon-soo's ear, 'Then you won't have to lose either.'

Add to,

“Your brother will definitely win. must! It doesn't make sense to be number one in the country in less than three months. If you lose, I'll add half of it. Instead, if we win, we will sell our Rolls-Royce and fight with me.” The two's eyes were filled with greed.

Lee Moon-soo felt that his uncle's words were right, and shouted with lustful eyes.

“Okay, let’s start writing the contract right now. Don't be afraid to get away with it later. I'm going to destroy your car."

“You must keep your promise. If you want to keep the whole house, even if it’s a Jeonse house.”

“Profit!”

“Just be patient. He is still young.”

“I’m over 30 years old, so what’s wrong with being young?”

When the plate was made the way I wanted it, I didn't care what they were talking about and called Jinwoo Choi, the lawyer in charge.

“Oh, Jinwoo. Are you busy right now?”

“No, the ritual is almost over. I think it will be over before lunch.”

“Then can you come over here and fill out the paperwork?”

“What kind of document is it?”

“Uh, I made a bet with my relatives, but it’s a bet that is about 500 million won, so there’s a lot of controversy over whether we should make a legal notarization.”

“Five billion? What the hell are you betting on 500 million each?”

“Can you come or not?”

“I will go right now. After all, I have to be here to be pissed off.”

I finished the call and waited about two hours. It wasn't that far from Seoul to Chungju, so Jinwoo arrived quickly.

He listened to the bet, and even though it was ridiculous, he signed the contract on the spot.

Moon-soo Lee and I shared two signed contracts and promised December. At first, it started with simply entering a Korean university, and now it has ended with a bet on getting first place in the country.

However, I wasn't nervous at all. Seeing my casual appearance, my relatives said, 'It's finally here.'

They were already 100% sure that my Rolls-Royce would go to Lee Moon-soo.

‘Three months from now… No, it’s not unusual to be ranked first in the country in just over two months.’

In fact, such a reaction was normal. However, all those who argued with me for putting me in the normal category were all blown away.

Whatever they think, my family proudly walked out and boarded a Rolls-Royce.

Boo Woong...

As the ghost car emitted a loud exhaust sound, it was like a magnificent orchestra.

“Goodbye, Dongseo!”

“Goodbye, bro!”

In the meantime, some relatives who had neglected our family because they were poor came out and sent us off. When I didn't have money, there were very few things like this, but again, money is good.

“Dad, I’m leaving right away.”

I was so disgusted with their rudeness that I immediately stepped on the accelerator hard and ran out of there as if to run away.

‘In the past, even the swamps polluted for seven thousand years in another world were worse than mine…’

The ugliest and dirtiest Chiloh Swamp I've ever been through. However, all of my relatives were unlucky and dirty to the extent that such a swamp felt rather clean.

‘It was dirty because we were together, let’s not see each other again in the future.’

I swore so, and raced happily on the open highway. Since I left before lunch, the highway was not as tight as I thought.

*

“Whoa~”

“I’m tired because I have so much work to do today.”

As soon as Hye-eun and her mother arrived home, they went straight into the room looking exhausted. My father went out for a while, and I went into my new room.

“Al (Master! How have you been?)”

“Yes, Snow White. How have you been?”

Snow White, who was quietly hiding by the bedside, ran towards me and hugged me.

“All right! (Good job!)”“Yeah, boy. During that time, I gained a lot of hair.”

“Al~! (Hehehehe)”

It had only been a few days, but Seol Beek felt more grown up. Because of his holiday, he was under a lot of stress to meet relatives he didn't want to see, but when he saw Seol Bek's face, it all flew away.

I put Snow White on the ground and lay on the bed, looking up at the ceiling.

"University······. It's a university..."

He said he was a middle school graduate, so he said he would try to win first place in the country once. To be honest, I have enough money to not lack, so that's my only weakness.

Even so, he was never without confidence. Rather, it was what I was hoping for.

‘I’ll show you right once.’

After two and a half months, it was the first place in the country.

I was suddenly immersed in thoughts as I recalled the memories of my high school days.

*

“Where are you planning to go to college?”

"I do not know."

When I was a freshman who just entered a vocational high school.

As the new semester started, my homeroom teacher, Chang-Yong Lim, asked me that. I couldn't help but hesitate to answer.

At that time, I was swept up by my friends and entered the high school, and I did not come to the electronics department because I had a dream or a vision.

I just chose it because computer classes are included in the class schedule. I wanted to enjoy Starcraft with my friends without my teacher knowing.

“Still, you have to think about that in advance, so that you can go to the college you want to go to later. Otherwise, life will just be wasted.”

“········”

At that time, I was not old enough to understand those words. He was poor, but he did not know what he had to do to survive. It was not suitable for studying.

I just wanted to graduate early and become an adult. When I become an adult, I will somehow solve it...

Seeing me in despair, the homeroom teacher sighed and added.

“You have talent. I think you are smart So, if you study hard and actively in everything, you will be able to get into the university you want.”

"Yes···"

“This time is really important. In the end, once the university sign is decided, no matter how hard you accumulate credits, companies don't take it seriously. Take them all out of the document screening. Even if you don't feel motivated right now, if you don't play games and study hard, your life will be easier later. I can get a lot of salary, and I can buy a nice car and a nice house.”

"i See."

“There are ways to study. You're just wandering because you don't know how. It's really easy once you know how. to swim on the ground First of all, English is...”

At that time, my eyes shone with interest. No one had given such a specific vision or direction. It was just vaguely ‘study, study to be successful’.

However, the homeroom teacher, Lim Chang-yong, was different.

Like other school teachers, he was not a teacher who just wasted time and neglected the students whether they did well or not.

When everyone had a sore mouth and annoyance, and sat watching the iron rice cooker, he analyzed each student one by one and gave active advice so that they could do well later.

I took his advice and got 1st place in the midterm exam.

So, the homeroom teacher praised me that if I worked a little harder, I could go to a good university through the selection of specialized skills in the business world.

With a swollen heart, I decided to study harder. I really wanted to succeed for my hard-working parents and my little brother who was a little short.

By the way, in the summer of September 2007.

I was dragged to another world without knowing why.
