I Became an Academy Overpowered Marksman

chapter 35



35. Negotiation with Tak Woo-hyun

-Whoop-!

Hyunseung Lee has excelled in the virtual environment. As soon as he came out, everyone around him flocked to him.

“Are you Lee Hyunseung? Can we have just one conversation?”

“Are you a simultaneous Awakener? And how on earth did you pierce the fireball? It seems absolutely impossible with a normal pistol…”

“Lee Hyun-seung, in our guild, you…”

I can assure you that Lee Hyun-seung will be the first to gain such explosive popularity in the F-class representative selection contest. Even now, it’s not enough that Goo Dayoon’s hidden ability is shown, and there is even Jeong Eun-seo, the daughter of Theor’s guild leader, but to be cornered by Lee Hyun-seung so unilaterally. It was amazing.

Hyunseung Lee looked around. All of them were just babbling.

‘Is it natural that all the competent guys joined Yu Hee-yeon’s side… No, there must still be useful guys who didn’t stick to Yu Hee-yeon’s side.’

when i thought so

“Kuhmm-!”

Tak Woo-hyeon brushed off his beard and pushed people away and started approaching Lee Hyun-seung.

“Hey, you have a natural talent as a blacksmith. I want to talk. Is it okay for a minute?”

Lee Hyun-seung looked at Tak Woo-hyun and thought with a grin.

‘It’s a jackpot. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Tak Woo-hyun is in command of all blacksmiths at this point, and his ability as a blacksmith is also of a high standard. It’s not bad if it’s like this. In the first place, I also wanted to raise my blacksmith skills.’

Through this battle, Hyunseung Lee once again realized the efficiency and excellence of his blacksmith job. A battle is something you never know when and how it will change. No matter how many supplies you bring, you may lose or consume them all, or your opponent may have superior weapons.

No matter what situation arises, if you can improvise a fast and superior weapon, you will be able to flexibly deal with the environment. This will serve as a huge advantage in the future labyrinth exploration.

‘I have a higher blacksmith job grade, but I have more personal connections with Tak Woo-hyun, so it’s worth using.’

In addition to various know-how, Tak Woo-hyun knows the entire supply chain that blacksmiths supply goods to. Later, when he worked as a blacksmith and wanted to earn money as a side job, he thought that the network he had built up with Tak Woo-hyeon would be of great help.

Lee Hyun-seung ignored the others and reached out to Tak Woo-hyun while talking.

“If you want to talk, you can. Where can we talk?”

-Sueug

Tak Woo-hyun smiled cheerfully as he looked at the hand that was stretched out in front of him.

“Ha ha ha ha ha!”

The first reason was that Lee Hyeon-seung did not even look at other people and ignored them. Hyunseung Lee acted as if he knew who was the most competent among the people around him. The second is that even when he saw Tak Woo-hyeon’s huge size, he wasn’t scared or scared at all.

‘It’s been a while since I’ve seen a kid who wasn’t scared by my size.’

Even at the age of 40, Tak Woo-hyun has a huge body. The whole body is covered with muscles, and the beard covering the face reminds me of a wild warrior. If you ask someone you don’t know, you will be asked if Tak Woo-hyeon is not a blacksmith, but a barbarian.

Seeing him like that, I really liked Lee Hyun-seung and Tak Woo-hyun, who held out their hands without any hesitation and made confident expressions.

“There is a building used by the association nearby, let’s go there.”

Instead of class, it was the F-class representative selection, so strictly speaking, it’s free time from now on. That’s why it doesn’t matter where you go. Hyunseung Lee accepted the offer.

“All right. Let’s go.”

The others next to them regretted the fact that Lee Hyun-seung had been taken away, but because of the fact that the person who scouted Lee Hyun-seung was Tak Woo-hyeon, they couldn’t say anything and just licked their lips. They quickly set out to find other prospects.

Loud noises started coming from everywhere. The sound grew louder and approached Lee Hyun-seung.

A woman’s annoyed voice was heard.

“Ah, it’s a bit out of the way-! I have nothing to say-!”

Looking there, Jung Eun-seo was piled up in a crowd of people. It was because all the people who had flocked to Lee Hyeon-seung moved to Jeong Eun-seo.

Jeong Eun-seo waved her hands in annoyance and talked to people.

“You don’t want to belong anywhere and you don’t need help, so if there is someone you want to scout, don’t waste your time and go find someone else.”

As he listened to Jeong Eun-seo’s determined words, Lee Hyeon-seung burst out laughing.

‘This is the Jung Eun-seo you see in the game.’

Although Jung Eun-seo has shown a lot of bewilderment and foolishness lately, her original personality is like that. A person who is cool-headed, confident, and does not care about others. Still, he was a man of conviction.

Jeong Eun-seo looked at Lee Hyeon-seung, who was smiling slightly, and asked a question.

“People are in trouble, so why are you laughing! Come on, no help!”

She stretched out her arms as if asking for a hand.

Lee Hyun-seung looked at it and thought.

‘I can come by myself even if I don’t have to catch him.’

One fact that should not be forgotten. Jung Eun-seo is an epic level magician. It was natural to be able to escape on one’s own power without incident from the crowds surrounding them.

‘I don’t have to help, but well, it’s not difficult.’

-Turup

Lee Hyun-seung grabbed Jung Eun-seo’s arm and pulled it toward him.

-Hoo-wook-!

Perhaps because she couldn’t control her strength, Jeong Eun-seo was sucked into Lee Hyeon-seung’s arms.

“Muh…what are you doing-!”

Jeong Eun-seo looked at Lee Hyeon-seung with her face flushed and shouted.

“Ah, sorry for the wrong power control.”

“All…be careful next time.”

Soon after, Jeong Eun-seo stood a little away from Lee Hyun-seung and asked a question.

“Are you going with him?”

Jeong Eun-seo’s eyes were on Tak Woo-hyeon.

Hyunseung Lee nodded.

“huh. He said he had something to talk about.”

“Hmm…”

After thinking about it for a while, she talked to Tak Woo-hyeon.

“Can I go too?”

Then Tak Woo-hyeon looked at Lee Hyeon-seung and asked a question.

“Do you want to go with me?”

Jeong Eun-seo asked the question, but Lee Hyun-seung answered it. This was the part where we could understand Tak Woo-hyun’s personality. Although Tak Woo-hyun looks rough and rough, he was a man who was subtly considerate of the person he was talking to first.

Hyunseung Lee nodded.

“Yes, he is my friend. There doesn’t seem to be anything that shouldn’t be said. If you allow me to accompany you, I want to go with you.”

Tak Woo-hyun nodded and talked to the secretary around him.

“Bring the parked car. ASAP.”

“yes. All right.”

The man answered quickly, and soon after, he brought a huge limousine.

-Click-!

“Come on.”

A classy looking car. I had the feeling that I didn’t fit in with the rugged man at all.

The building we arrived shortly after was adorned with magnificent gold decorations here and there.

‘Unlike what you see, you think that unexpectedly visible parts are important, this man.’

Although he looks like a barbarian who was stranded on an uninhabited island for a few days, his artistic sense was somehow outstanding.

‘Well, if you want to make a living as a blacksmith, not only the performance of weapons is important, but also the external design. Is it natural?’

Naturally, people value both the performance and design of a weapon. Weapons can be easily made with crafting skills, but specific shapes and designs can be customized by the blacksmith as much as possible by processing the finished weapon. It was these additional skills that Hyunseung Lee wanted to learn.

‘Even if the performance is the same, if the design is superior, the price will be much different.’

Food, clothes, and bags are the same. Even if the same material is used, the more beautiful it is, the more expensive it is. Whether for personal use or for resale, the aspects of processing and design belonged to the parts that must be learned.

‘Because this cannot be replaced with the system.’

Weapons come out of nowhere through the [Crafting Sphere], so crafting itself isn’t difficult. However, I have no idea how to process it. Tak Woo-hyun will help a lot with this part.

-Sueug

Tak Woo-hyeon sat down at the huge table and reached out to Lee Hyeon-seung.

“Sit here. Let’s talk calmly for now.”

When Lee Hyun-seung sat down, he looked at Tak Woo-hyun and thought.

‘You’ve been talking nonsense ever since. They subconsciously think they have the upper hand.’

For excellent negotiations, it is necessary to preoccupy a superior position over the opponent. Tak Woo-hyeon has the authority and power of being the president of the blacksmith association. However, comparatively, what Lee Hyeon-seung has is a legendary job that has not yet matured properly. However, there was no need to put the negotiations at a disadvantage. Hyunseung Lee found a way to break through.

A way to get the upper hand in negotiations and bring even the blacksmith association into the fight against Yoo Hee-yeon.

‘I’m going to cut down on unnecessary words and get to the point. Don’t get caught up in the face.’

“I will be straightforward. Are you curious about my blacksmith skills?”

– flinch

Tak Woo-hyeon is a production fanatic who has no interest in anything other than blacksmithing in the first place. So, of course, he wouldn’t have been particularly interested in the profession of gunsmith. What Tak Woo-hyun showed interest in was Lee Hyun-seung’s extremely fast production speed in a virtual environment. And it was not difficult to infer that they were two crafting slots.

“Kuhmm…”

When Tak Woo-hyun cleared his throat as if he had been caught, Lee Hyun-seung said.

“If you are curious about my abilities, I can tell you. But before that, you must reward me adequately. You know as a blacksmith, but when you do a deal, you have to be certain of the pay. As a reward, I want an alliance with you. It’s not that I belong to the Blacksmith Association, it’s that I want you to be my protective shield. Of course, it would be nice if you could tell me about miscellaneous skills.”

“Hmm… It’s true that I’m curious about your abilities, but I’m not particularly fond of forming alliances with anyone.”

“In that case, there will be no negotiations. I don’t really need anything other than that. Can I just go?”

At Lee Hyeon-seung’s straightforward yet explicit speech, the secretary next to him squinted his eyes and shouted.

“You cheeky bastard! Do you know what kind of person this person is and talk like that! Cheeky has its limits! Be polite!”

Moment.

-Quaaang-!

A tremendous vibration echoed, and Tak Woo-hyun looked at the secretary with cold eyes.

“Tongue… President, why are you suddenly like that…”

The secretary looked at Tak Woo-hyun with a blank expression as if asking why, and there was silence in the hall.

Before long, Tak Woo-hyun’s cold voice was heard.

“Shut up, don’t be arrogant.”
