Absolute Person in Every Corner

[Episode 07] Seomyeon Station (3)

[An object that satisfies the conditions to be accepted as a citizen has been found.]

[Do you want to grant citizenship?]

Most of the people in the vicinity thought they had accepted them as citizens, but it seems that there were still people who had not been granted citizenship.

A total of 27 people.

However, thanks to the diligent acceptance of the citizens, the number was not very large.

‘Grant it.’

I checked just in case, but as expected, no new Awakeners appeared among the 27 people.

That’s how low the percentage of awakened people was.

‘But to think that a Class A Awakener came to me on its own.’

In that sense, Seo Ye-jin was a rolled pumpkin.

Somehow, it seemed that there were many cases where Awoken people voluntarily rolled in this way.

‘I have to accept them as vassals unconditionally.’

In order to be accepted as a vassal, it was first necessary to increase trust and loyalty.

In my experience so far, the best way to increase trust is face-to-face with the subject.

“Are you okay?”

Ha Dong-gun was looking at me with worried eyes from the side.

“I am okay. Now go down and rest.”

“All right. Call me anytime if you need anything.”

After sending him down, I searched everywhere to find Seo Ye-jin.

It was because I thought it might be in the newly expanded apartment.

However, Seo Ye-jin could not be found even after searching through the two newly expanded buildings.

‘Where are you?’

I was a little worried.

It was possible that she felt ill-tempered because the mouse she had tamed had been trampled to death.

‘I’ll have to call. Quest granted.’

《Quest granted》

Quest content: Visit the apartment.

Time limit: 48 hours 00 minutes 00 seconds

Reward: Coke and chocolate bar.

Failure Penalty: None.

[Would you like to grant the quest as it is?]

[Yes No]

These were two of the best-selling items in the store these days.

I don’t know exactly what kind of situation Seo Ye-jin is in, but it must be a very appetizing reward.

It was about to grant the quest as it was.

‘Wait a minute.’

Suddenly, the words of Oh Eon-joo, which I had just heard, lingered in my head.

(Can’t you just bring your family with Jaehyun’s ability?)

I tried, but it failed, and I could hypothesize that the reason was that it was out of my sphere of influence.

‘then···.’

Is the subject granted citizenship under my influence or not?

The correct answer was ‘under influence.’

No matter how far away they were from each corner of the house, they could tell just by looking at the corpses of the monsters they were hunting.

‘Fix the quest.’

I slightly touched the quest time and penalty.

《Quest granted》

Quest content: Visit the apartment.

Time limit: 10 seconds

Reward: Coke and chocolate bar.

Failure Penalty: Summons.

[Would you like to grant the quest as it is?]

[Yes No]

It was a success.

‘I didn’t expect to be able to utilize even the failure penalty.’

I was obsessed with the failure penalty and thought that only negative effects had to be added.

However, not only the success reward, but also the failure penalty could be applied at will.

‘It’s possible to summon.’

Although it was disposable, the same ability as summoning a vassal could be applied to ordinary citizens.

Being able to teleport a target who has acquired citizenship.

This was a great discovery.

‘If I use this, it’s possible enough to bring my family safely.’

It was said that if it was possible to grant citizenship to all family members, it would be possible to bring them into the realm of every household using the quest grant system.

‘I heard that if the outpost is activated, it will temporarily have the same power as every corner of the house.’

That would mean that it would be possible to grant citizenship by using an outpost.

Then, after sending the Ha Dong-gun party, building an outpost, giving citizenship to all family members, and summoning them here using the quest grant system?

‘It is perfect.’

It was the most feasible plan out of all the plans so far.

‘The question is, how much money will it cost?’

I currently have too much money on hand.

Because of this, there was no way to infer how much it would cost to teleport Seo Ye-jin.

In the worst case, it was a situation where all the wealth in the absolute’s wallet could be blown away.

‘Even so, let’s try.’

No matter how much I thought about it, it was a question that could not be answered.

Anyway, it was a problem that I had to check once in a while.

In this case, the answer was simply to collide with ignorance.

‘Give me a quest.’

Tring!

[ 00 minutes 09 seconds ]

I watched the shrinking time with a nervous heart.

The cost of the quest is charged when the quest is completed.

3 seconds left now.

‘Please don’t exceed 1 billion.’

One-time teleportation ability.

its price.

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin failed the quest.]

[The quest costs 31,674,894 won.]

’30 million won!’

made an advance

It was much cheaper than expected.

“Whew.”

thank god.

It was expensive, but at this price, it was good enough for the situation where it was needed.

‘There’s still a lot to learn about, like the cost increase with distance, but it works anyway.’

The gamble was a great success.

“What, what? Where are you?”

Seo Ye-jin’s voice came from the front door.

I approached the front door and started talking to Seo Ye-jin.

“Hello, Seo Ye-jin.”

“Who, who are you? Do you know me?”

He reached out his hand to her who was sitting on the floor and said.

“He is the one who gave you citizenship.”

“Yeah?”

Seo Ye-jin’s expression gradually turned to astonishment.

“Now, wait a minute. So, this is where I am right now…”

“Yeah. It is the top floor of the apartment you saw through the mouse.”

I was so embarrassed that I didn’t even think to get up holding my hand.

Seo Ye-jin, who stared blankly at me with her mouth open, handed a can of cold cola and continued.

“I’m sorry for inviting you so suddenly. Were you surprised? Nice to meet you, my name is Jaehyun Kim.”

Then there was an immediate response.

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin’s credibility has greatly increased.]

It seems that he now understands the situation.

At the same time, it seemed like I had confidence in my abilities.

And.

“So… you mean Jaehyun-nim brought me here? Same with that strange quest.”

“Yeah. It was given to me.”

Seo Ye-jin said with a slightly brightened face.

“Don’t worry, I’ll ask you a favor. There are people I am responsible for. Can you accept them too?”

“···Yeah?”

“Even otherwise, it was difficult to bring everyone here. So I tried to gamble…”

this.

There must be people who are with you.

When I heard that, it was quite a number.

35 people in total.

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin’s credibility has greatly increased.]

She spoke to Seo Ye-jin, who was chattering with her expectant eyes.

“Sorry, but that sounds difficult.”

“Yeah···?”

For a moment, Seo Ye-jin’s eyes trembled wildly.

“That, what is that…”

“It is impossible to bring them here on my own.”

Not only was it impossible to teleport non-citizens, but it was a problem even if it could be done. It cost 30 million won to bring one Seo Ye-jin, so it takes more than 1 billion won to bring 35 people.

I had no intention of investing close to a billion dollars to save them.

As if taken aback by the firm answer, Seo Ye-jin crawled to me on her knees and asked me while holding onto the crotch of her pants.

“No! My mother and brother are there! I’ll do anything I can. therefore···.”

I wondered if there was anything I could do about her seemingly desperate attitude.

First of all, the first common method that came to mind was to dispatch Ha Dong-gun’s party.

Considering their abilities, it would be possible to bring 30 people at once.

However, I came up with a better solution than that.

‘Certainly Seo Ye-jin hadn’t made direct contact with her, but citizenship was granted.’

Wouldn’t that mean that the household area recognized the mouse as part of her?

‘If I do well, I think something like this will work.’

In order to apply the idea I just had, I had to first accept her as a vassal.

Only then will the bell title be activated.

I checked Seo Ye-jin’s citizen information window.

『Name: Seo Ye-jin (Lv. 31)

Reliability: 37

Awakening Ability: Mouse Queen

EXP distribution rate: 0%

Settlement amount distribution rate: 0%

★Quest Grant Exit』

The reliability, which was a single digit number, had risen by 30 in the meantime.

‘It’s fast.’

As expected, as soon as they met face-to-face, their reliability increased exponentially.

‘Can I upload a little more?’

Is there any way to increase reliability and increase loyalty beyond a certain level?

I asked while looking at Seo Ye-jin, who was holding my trouser leg with watery eyes.

“Can you really do anything?”

Seo Ye-jin, who hesitated for a moment, nodded slowly and replied.

“anything. I will do anything.”

“There is only one way.”

I lowered my posture to meet her sitting at eye level, looked straight into Seo Ye-jin’s desperate eyes, and continued.

“Please trust me completely and swear allegiance to me.”

“Yeah···?”

“Then we will save you.”

front breakthrough.

What I chose was to simply trust me and ask for my loyalty.

As I said, I didn’t think that this method would work.

I just tried it out of curiosity.

If this method doesn’t work, you can send a party to Ha Dong-gun.

By the way.

“I will trust Jaehyun. I will do my best. I am willing to give my life to save my family. How can I prove this heart?”

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin’s credibility has greatly increased.]

Surprisingly, that method worked.

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin’s reliability has reached 50.]

[Loyalty is unlocked.]

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin’s loyalty has exceeded 30.]

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin has met the conditions for vassal registration.]

‘… is this going to happen?’

Among the people I have met so far, I have met the conditions for registering as a vassal in the shortest amount of time.

It must be because of the desperate need to save the family.

Perhaps he struggled to believe my words with the feeling of grabbing at least a straw. I mean with all my might.

I said it from the bottom of my heart.

“Good job.”

Let’s register Seo Ye-jin as a vassal right away.

Wow!

A bright light unique to registering as a vassal emanated from her body.

It felt good.

The brighter the light, the better the result.

And.

『Name: Seo Yejin (Lv. 35) [+]

Title: [Tenth Servant] [Knight] [Trainer]

Reliability: 52 Loyalty: 33

Awakening Ability: Mouse Queen, Evolution

EXP distribution rate: 0%

★Quest given 』

{breaker}

Increases the stats of tamed ones by (Loyalty)%, and accelerates the growth rate of all tamed ones by (Reliance)%.

Evolution (A+ Grade)

The tamed target continues to grow.

Objects that reach a certain level will evolve.

It was the birth of the fourth knight.

I asked Seo Ye-jin, who was pouring out tears and runny nose.

“Are there tamed mice where there are families?”

Seo Ye-jin hurriedly nodded her head.

“Take that mouse in front of your family right now.”

“All right.”

I said to her who was about to sit cross-legged on the floor of the entrance.

“Come inside. It’s cold there.”

Seo Ye-jin followed me closely.

Seo Ye-jin, sitting cross-legged on the living room floor, closed her eyes and focused.

‘The eyes of the absolute.’

The moment you set your sights on Seo Ye-jin.

‘see.’

I saw a mouse running eagerly through a narrow passage on its short legs.

『Tame Mouse (Lv. 2)』

It was a success.

An area where the eyes of the absolute can be summoned was created around the mouse that Seo Ye-jin is sharing her senses with.

Suddenly, the mouse appeared in front of the people in a bustling atmosphere.

“It’s a mouse!”

“Isn’t Yejin a mouse?”

“Yes Jin! Where did you go?!”

In front of them looking hectic, they created items purchased at the store.

Gee-

“Ugh!”

Starting with water and chocolate bars, the focus was on simple, ready-to-eat items such as bread and milk.

at the same time.

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin’s credibility has greatly increased.]

[Citizen Seo Ye-jin’s loyalty has greatly increased.]

‘As expected.’

Apparently, it seemed that Seo Ye-jin could only shine her eyes on the mouse with which she shared her senses.

But that was enough.

It was because the compatibility between her ability and the Eye of the Absolute was so good.

In the future, tens of thousands of mice crawling through the sewer will all become my eyes.

‘You’re crazy.’

I got the best skirmisher.
