I Don’t Want This Reincarnation-Chapter 106

“I’ll be back, so don’t fight. I will come soon.”

“I will go too.”

“No, it’s fine. Wait in the room.”

After saying that, Han Yi-gyeol followed Woo Seo-hyuk and left the room without any regrets. Kim Woo-jin looked at Han Yi-gyeol’s back with his sullen face, and as soon as the door closed, his expression hardened.

“He’s gone.”

From behind Han Yi-gyeol and Kim Woo-jin, Kwon Jeong-han, who was watching the clone, opened his mouth in a very friendly voice.

“Kim Woo-jin seonbaenim seems to be very close with Talented Han Yi-gyeol. Even Talented Han Yi-gyeol seems to be particularly comfortable with Seonbaenim compared to other people.”

“……”

Kim Woo-jin stared coldly at Kwon Jeong-han, who was babbling at something he didn’t ask, and walked past him. Then, Kwon Jeong-han followed Kim Woo-jin. His appearance was exactly the same as that of Kim Woo-jin, who was following Han Yi-gyeol before.

“Excuse me, Kim Woo-jin seonbaenim.”

“Ha…”

Kim Woo-jin, who was about to clear the plate from the table, exhaled an annoying breath and tilted his head slightly back. Kwon Jeong-han’s attitude, which didn’t care even if he ignored him, was very annoying.

“Ya, get lost.”

Kim Woo-jin, who remembered Han Yi-gyeol’s words not to fight and pushed his harsh thoughts to the other side, spat out a word without even looking at Kwon Jeong-han. The clone, who acted more emotionally than the owner, roamed around the authority and showed blatant hostility.

“Are you uncomfortable with me?”

Even though it was obvious that he hated it beyond inconvenience, Kwon Jeong-han asked with a brazen smile. Kim Woo-jin, who was looking at the smile of his softly folding eyes over the smooth glasses for a moment with a distorted face, clicked his tongue and grabbed two empty plates.

“I like Seonbaenim. It’s also fun to watch.”

“Ah… Such a bastard, this one.”

Chaenggeurang!

Kim Woo-jin, who roughly put the plate down again, turned his head toward Kwon Jeong-han.

“Get out, or why don’t you shut your mouth and be quiet? Don’t mess with people.”

“It’s not okay to get out because I have to protect Talented Han Yi-gyeol, and I hate shutting my mouth. More than that, Seonbaenim. I have a question for you.”

Kwon Jeong-han asked in a bright voice that contrasted with Kim Woo-jin.

“Can I use my ability on the clone? It’s my first time seeing a clone magician. I want to know if emotion control applies to clones as well.”

“This shit…”

Kim Woo-jin spat out the abusive language at the uncontrollable rise of discomfort and took one step closer to Kwon Jeong-han. That was then.

Uuung—

Kim Woo-jin’s cell phone, which was placed on the table, vibrated. The atmosphere, which was close to exploding at any moment, was cut off. Kim Woo-jin, who regained his composure at the sound of his cell phone ringing, frowned and looked away.

That was better. Kim Woo-jin didn’t want to ignore Han Yi-gyeol’s request because he was swayed by that bastard. Kim Woo-jin, who picked up his cell phone without hesitation, widened the distance from Kwon Jeong-han and pressed the call connection button.

[Hello.]

The other party was Hyde, whom he had contacted recently. He asked him to find out what Han Yi-gyeol asked for, and Hyde replied that it would take a few days.

However, perhaps things didn’t go as planned, Hyde’s voice wasn’t as bright as usual.

“What.”

[Hm, what you asked me to find out.]

As expected by Kim Woo-jin, Hyde continued his speech with a sigh.

[It will take some more time.]

“What’s the matter?”

[First… There are two things you asked me to find out. Samael and the Puppeteer. And Kang Seung-geon. Right?]

“Yeah.”

[In the case of Samael and the Puppeteer, I think you should bring more information. You have to at least tell me the name of the puppeteer so that we can find it by tying up a relationship with Samael.]

It was a reasonable explanation. For this reason, Han Yi-gyeol would think that nothing could be done.

‘I don’t like it, but anyway, there is a bodyguard that the guild gave him. We need some time to talk about the puppeteer and Samael.’

Kim Woo-jin glanced at Kwon Jeong-han, who was cleaning the plates on his behalf, and answered the phone.

“I see. And?”

[Then all that’s left is Kang Seung-geon…]

“Kang Seung-geon is worth looking into.”

[I thought it would be the same too.]

Hyde made a groaning sound.

[I explained last time that someone intentionally deleted information about Han Yi-gyeol and Han Yi-gyeol’s younger sister, do you remember? The situation is similar to that time.]

“…you mean someone deleted Kang Seung-geon’s information?”

[I’m working on the exact erasing thing.]

“Working they want to erase?”

Tack, tack. The keyboard sound was loud.

[There’s a separate operation below to cleanly delete information at once. It’s a way for talented people to lock the information they found until all the information is gathered so that no one else can touch it.]

“If it’s talented people…”

Kim Woo-jin quickly recognized the meaning of Hyde’s words.

“No way.”

[Yes. Apparently, the person with the ability to erase Han Yi-gyeol’s information is moving again.]

“Why? What’s the connection between those two?”

[That’s what I don’t know either.]

Kim Woo-jin sighed in response to the harsh answer.

“Is there any way?”

[Hm. It’s not that there isn’t. It’s just that it will take some more time.]

“How long?”

[Give me at least two weeks. I have to break through the locked information and get it out. This is not an easy task.]

Two weeks. It took a lot longer than expected, but better than not getting it at all.

“I understand, so do your best. There is nothing that has succeeded except for the gate material without shouting it out.” (큰소리는 쳐 놓고 게이트 자료 말고 성공한 게 없잖아, not sure)

Hyde spat out a silly laugh at the annoying words.

[No, who was the one who asked me to only look at all these craps? Because it’s me, I’m just trying to unlock it. If it were other guys, they’d have given up sooner and left.]

“Okay, so in two weeks…”

Kwaang!

Before he could finish speaking, he heard the door open violently. It was a door he didn’t intentionally close because he thought Han Yi-gyeol would come back. When he hurried to the front door, Han Yi-gyeol was standing there holding a box he had never seen before.

[Hello? What?]

“Just hang up.”

Kim Woo-jin, who relentlessly hung up the phone, approached Han Yi-gyeol. Kwon Jeong-han, who suddenly came out of the kitchen, opened his eyes and followed Kim Woo-jin.

“Han Yi-gyeol? What’s up? What is that box?”

“Ah, this?”

Han Yi-gyeol smiled brightly at Kim Woo-jin’s question. It was a smile of anger.

“Don’t worry about it. It’s just trash.”

“Trash?”

Han Yi-gyeol threw the box on the floor. Clatter! There was the sound of something solid rolling inside the box.

“More than that, Kim Woo-jin and Kwon Jeong-han-ssi.”

“Oh?”

“Yes?”

Looking at Kim Woo-jin and Kwon Jeong-han who had bewildered expressions, Han Yi-gyeol laughed wildly.

“Let’s go do some shopping.”

* * *

An item department store located 30 minutes away from Requiem Guild, Roden Centre (로덴 센터). Taking a taxi and getting down in front of it, Kim Woo-jin and Kwon Jeong-han looked at the colourful and tall Roden Centre building.

“Talented Han Yi-gyeol.”

“Yes.”

“Is there any reason you want to go shopping all of a sudden?”

“I just want to spend money.”

Rolling the strawberry-flavoured candy that I received from Woo Seo-hyuk in my mouth and giving a brief answer, Kwon Jeong-han said, ‘I see,’ and nodded his head, and Kim Woo-jin made an anxious face.

“Let’s go in.”

If not, I would like to visit at least once. Unfolding the pamphlet placed in the centre of the lobby, I carefully looked at the floor I had to go to. There was also a general clothing store on the third floor. Shall we buy some clothes for Kim Woo-jin and Kwon Jeong-han?

“Han Yi-gyeol. Are you sure you’re okay?”

“Ong? What?”

“What happened in the representative room?”

What happened… There was, but it was a little hard to explain in this situation. In addition, there was Kwon Jeong-han next to him, so I thought it would be better to pretend not to know.

“What’s the job? I’m not even close enough to work with Master Cheon Sa-yeon.”

I answered with a wide smile on purpose, but Kim Woo-jin’s eyes shook more anxiously than before. Why?

“Since we’re out, let’s buy some clothes.”

Cheon Sa-yeon prepared clothes every time, so it wasn’t lacking, but shopping for clothes that fit my taste was another thing, so I didn’t think it would be bad for a change of mood. More than anything.

“Especially the expensive ones, you have to buy a lot. Got it?”

“Han Yi-gyeol…”

So I headed to the clothing store with Kim Woo-jin, who looked worried, and Kwon Jeong-han, who said anything was fun.

“Choose, choose.”

Kim Woo-jin and Kwon Jeong-han’s backs were pushed into the quite expensive brand store.

“Wa, are you buying it for me?”

“It’s fine.”

Unlike Kwon Jeong-han, who was happy with his bright voice, Kim Woo-jin shook his head. Damn, I told you to get it as I bought it for you. (사 줄 때 받으라니까, not sure)

I forcefully grabbed Kim Woo-jin, who refused, and started choosing clothes with Kwon Jeong-han. Now that I’m buying it, I chose a few clothes that fit my taste.

“Do you want to pay all of this?” (이렇게 결제해 드릴까요?, not sure)

As we piled up our clothes, the staff smiled so kindly that we couldn’t see them twice.

“Yes. Please.”

I nodded and pulled out what I had been thinking about from my wallet. Kim Woo-jin was astonished to see what I had in my hand.

“Ha, Han Yi-gyeol. That…!”

“Yeah.”

A luxuriously shiny black card. It was an item I had received from Cheon Sa-yeon before but couldn’t return it and kept it in my wallet.

“Everything I buy today, I will pay with this card.”

“Are you really okay? You use it carelessly…”

“It’s okay. Because I said so.”

After finishing the payment without hesitation, I headed to the premium item store. There was no way that Cheon Sa-yeon would be harmed by buying some expensive clothes. I smiled happily when I saw the prices written on the item display.

“Great. This price should be good.”

As we lined up with shopping bags and looked at the display, an employee sneaked up to us.

“Welcome. Is there any item you are looking for?”

“Um, wait a minute.”

What should I buy first? After thinking about it for a while, I turned to Kim Woo-jin and asked.

“Come to think of it, Kim Woo-jin, when I saw you back then, you were using a gun. Did you get it from the guild?”

“Ung. It’s an item gun that Master gave me separately. It’s A-class, so it’s worth using.”

What. Did Cheon Sa-yeon take care of that? Then the weapon passed.

“How do you manage it?”

“Basically, the guild supports B-class minimization items. Then it’s easy to carry around. Like this.”

A gun the size of half a hand emerged from Kim Woo-jin’s zippered hooded zip-up pocket. The red sticker on the outside seemed to be a minimal item.

It was definitely a small size, but it was a bit disappointing to carry a weapon item like that, not a cell phone. Like Cha Soo-yeon, I wanted to get him inventory items.

“I don’t think there are any inventory items up for auction right now…”

At that moment, the employee who was waiting next to me said to me.

“Sir. How about art inventory items?”

Art inventory? What’s that?

When I showed interest, the staff smiled and quickly led us to the display next door.

“In this way, it is an item with a sticker like a minimization item, and you can keep one item in the inventory.”

“Oh. How do I use it?”

“Attach the art inventory to the desired body part, tap the image to insert and remove items.”

It wasn’t bad? Even the designs were different. It was only a 500 won coin, so there didn’t seem to be any restrictions to attach it.

“Most of them are applied to the palm of the hand. Then you can easily take it out at any time.”

“How long is the maintenance?”

“Every price is different, so you can choose the period you want. Here the first line is one week and the last line is seven weeks.”

The longer it lasted, the more expensive it was. I really liked the art inventory item, so I started thinking seriously about the design.
