I Live Alone in the Inventory

Episode 19

Joey shouted outside.

“Outside! Is there anyone outside!”

Cho Won stopped shouting when he remembered that he had personally ordered all the employees out of the office.

gulp.

Jo Won swallowed dry saliva and spoke to Jung Min.

“Uh… Jeongmin? How about we have a calm, calm conversation? As you may have noticed, the powerhouse of this shelter is me, this Kwak Jo-won. What good would it do if something like this happened to me and me? Would you like to talk-“

“If you’re going to say that, you shouldn’t bet on ‘brainwashing’.”

Jung-min stepped forward and slapped Jo-won on the cheek.

Two teeth protruded from Jo Won’s mouth along with blood.

“Keuouk!”

Jo Won, who was curled up on one side of the sofa, glared at Jeong-min while clutching his cheek and screamed loudly.

“You! You! Do you think you’ll be safe even after doing this? No matter how strong you are, do you think you can face all of these shelters alone!”

“Well, that’s something to think about later… Shouldn’t the person in charge of personnel worry about his body first?”

“Your friend in this shelter! Do you really think he will be safe?! He and his family! If I just say…!”

Jo Won stopped talking when he read the intent to kill Jung Min in his eyes.

“…This is why Leah-san said that… This is why…”

Jeongmin murmured and grabbed Jowon by the collar and lifted him up.

thump, thump, thump

When the cheek was tapped without remorse, Jo Won drooped.

Make sure to read from noble mtl . com

Blood flowed from his mouth and several teeth fell out.

Jung-min threw Jo Won onto the sofa.

Kwak Jo-won, who was furry and sprawled on the sofa, groaned between his broken teeth and spoke softly to Jeong-min.

“You… you… dog… dare… dare me, the owner of this shelter…”

Jung-min raised his hand once more, then lowered it and said coldly.

“..I don’t think I’m ready to kill anyone, even if it’s an enemy yet. You’re lucky.”

Jo Won, who heard Jeong-min’s words, said with a giggle.

“I never thought I’d say this…but you…we’ll see..then it’s going to be so much fun..”

“I didn’t say I wouldn’t kill, I didn’t say I would leave a scar.”

Jung-min opened his inventory and took out the ‘Ring of Effort’ he had received from Leah.

“I never thought I’d be able to use it this soon… I’m glad you’re an Awakener. You can use this ring…”

Jung-min put on a ring and approached Jo-won, who was lying on the floor.

“Gee, what are you doing now?”

“Shut up and be still.”

Jung-min pressed Jo Won’s neck to fix it, and pressed the patterned part of the ring against his forehead.

Chi profit

“Oh ahhhhh!”

There was a sound like something burning, and Jo Won let out a scream in pain.

When Jeong-Min took off the ring, Kwak Jo-Won’s forehead had a clear slave sentence engraved on it, and soon it sank to the inside and disappeared.

Jung-min woke up leaving Jo-won who was struggling in pain.

At that time, a message appeared in front of Jung-min’s eyes.

[I used the ‘Ring of Effort’. A master-servant relationship is established with the awakened person with the coat of arms of a slave engraved on the ring. A slave cannot do any harm to his master and obeys his master unconditionally.

Masters can give slaves any command except growth restrictions.

As soon as the sum of the slave’s stats exceeds the master’s stat total, the master-servant relationship is reversed. So try. Keep in mind that your slave can become your master at any time!]

Jeongmin murmured as he slowly read the message that appeared before his eyes.

“Those who thrive by brainwashing will perish by brainwashing… I wonder if this is what it feels like”

“What…what is this! What did you do to me!”

Jo Won was trembling as he stared straight ahead as if a message had also come to mind.

“A slave? Are you saying I’m a slave? This Kwak Jo-won is a slave?”

Jo Won turned his head and glared at Jung Min.

“What kind of dog is this… Kkeaaa!!”

Jo Won, who was glaring at Jung Min, struggled in pain while holding his forehead.

Jo Won couldn’t come to his senses from the burning pain he felt on his forehead.

He had felt a lot of pain in his life, and felt great pain even in his mouth that was messed up from being beaten on the cheek, but it was such a great pain that made him forget all the pain.

Tears flowed from his eyes and saliva flowed from his mouth.

“That…stop it! That’s not!!!”

The pain disappeared in an instant.

Jo Won, whose face was covered in blood, tears and spittle, looked up at Jung Min.

Jung-min said while looking at Jo-won while sitting on the sofa.

“The effect seems to be quite good. In the future, if you have bad thoughts or actions against me, you will always feel the pain. You’d better be careful.”

When Jo Won heard Jeong-min’s words, he frowned and tried to grind his teeth, but he had no choice but to roll on the ground and struggle in pain.

Every time the pain intensified, the hatred for Jung-min boiled over, and then the pain intensified.

Jo Won, tired of the pain as the pain continued to get worse, had no choice but to let go of his addiction to Jeong-min.

“I’m sorry, I won’t take offense at you, master.. I’m sorry, I’m sorry..”

Joe muttered blankly.

It worked and the pain seemed to subside.

Jung-min said as he looked at Jo-won, who was sprawled with a messed up face.

“Don’t be too discouraged. As you may have read in the message, the moment the sum of the personnel officer’s stats exceeds the sum of my stats, the master-servant relationship reverses. Did you know? If you work hard, you’ll be able to enslave me.”

Joe made a puzzled expression.

‘How can I overcome the stats that lightly subdue the 4th leader who uses super strength skills..’

Jo Won shook his head and spoke to Jung-min in a slurred tone.

“I… lost. What do you want? Do you want this shelter? Master…?”

Jeong-min shuddered and took out a low-grade potion from his inventory and handed it to him.

“Ah, it’s creepy… Tsk… From now on, calling the owner is prohibited. Just call me Mr. Jung-Min as before. And I don’t even understand what he’s saying. Please keep it in your mouth for a while.”

Jo Won took the lower potion, opened the lid, and took a sip.

chii profit

A burning sound came from the inside of the potion’s mouth, and Jo Won’s face contorted in pain.

When Jo Won was about to spit out the potion

“Don’t spit it out. It’s painful because it’s being healed.”

Jo Won, who couldn’t go against Jung-min, couldn’t spit out the potion.

After holding back the pain in my mouth for a while, I felt a cool sensation and felt no pain at all.

gulp.

Cho Won, who swallowed the potion, looked at Jung Min with a surprised look.

“As expected… It’s a potion with a great effect..”

In one corner of the office, a crowd of people arose.

Sang-do, who was knocked in the face by Jeong-min and fell out, was getting up.

“Give the remaining potions to that person.”

Jo Won said nothing and handed the remaining potion to Sang Do.

“Apply it on your face. Then it will heal.”

Sang-do said to Jung-min while accepting the potion.

“I…instead of using it on my wounds… would it be all right if I had this potion…?”

“…?”

Jung-min looked at Sang-do blankly and said.

“Do it yourself.”

Sangdo’s messed up face brightened.

Sang-do carefully put the potion into his bosom.

“Take those people who are lying down over there.”

As Jung-min said, Sang-do looked at Jo-won.

Jo Won nodded, and Sang-do lifted Ki-chan and Yoon-gu and left the office.

At the office where the two met, Jo Won looked at Jung Min again and said,

“Ask me again… I’ll ask you. What do you want from me?”

Jeongmin laughed as if it was absurd.

“That sounds funny. Do you know what I wanted to put the seal of a slave on you? Isn’t it like this because you acted useless?”

“Kuhmm…”

Jung-min said, looking at Jo-won who was coughing as if he had nothing to say.

“Let’s talk about it. Why did you do that to me? Were you so curious about the items I possessed? No, do you do that? Brainwashing? Ha…”

Jo Won, who was anxiously looking at Jeong-min, who said it was absurd, said.

“Of course, I can’t help but wonder what items the owner… no, Mr. Jung-min has. It’s been a while since [Trial of the Gods] started, and such potions and items… anyone would have been curious and coveted. With those things, we Shelter will be able to become the best shelter in Korea and, by extension, the world’s best shelter.”

“Just for that reason…”

“It’s just that! Since [Trial of the Gods] started, power has become a legal world. The idiots who hold the title of executive and say this and that from above seem to think that [Trial of the Gods] will end once all the gates outside are destroyed. But it will never be like that. I judge that those gates are not the end. Rather, they will be the beginning. If that is all, then there is no need for items of the level that Jung-Min has. You will need it. In order to survive, you have to prepare as much as possible.”

‘Ohh…look at this?’

Jung-min admired Jo-won.

‘Leaving aside the sly and sly ones… you’re pretty smart, right? To think that the outer gate is just the beginning…’

Joe’s words continued.

“So… you have to do anything to have power! Oppress others! Brainwash you!”

Jo Won, who had been arguing, looked at Jung Min and said in a dejected voice.

“Well…it’s all wrong now.”

Jung-Min looked at Jo-Won sadly and said.

“That ‘brainwashing’ skill. Tell me what kind of skill it is. In detail.”

“..It is a technique that literally brainwashes the target. In fact, only words are ‘brainwashing’, but it does not produce such a dramatic effect. To the extent of inducing them to be friendly to what they do… I guess? The higher the intelligence stat, the higher the control over the brainwashed target, but… it’s hard to raise the intelligence stat…”

“Even so, it seems to be a very fraudulent skill… Are there any other restrictions?”

“..First of all, the ‘brainwashing’ skill can only be cast on two people. I don’t know if the skill level goes up, but so far there are only two of them. And since it’s a skill that works on the mind, there are significant limitations. Even if brainwashing is applied, the intelligence stat of the target If this skill is higher than me, it will never be induced as I want. It means that brainwashing is useless. And if you fail after applying the skill, you will not be able to apply the brainwashing skill to the target again, and your body will suffer damage just by failing. That’s when the nosebleeds came out.”

“Two people… that’s what the word “one seat left” meant. If that’s the case, someone must already be brainwashed by the personnel officer. Who is it?”

Jo Won sighed lightly and then spoke to Jung Won.

“The head of Shelter [Daesung]… This is Chairman Yoon Dae-sung, the former chairman of Daesung Group.”

Jungmin nodded.

‘Well, that’s about it, but with a position like that, he could have intervened in everything..’

“Is that Shelter Master… a pavilion?”

“No. I’m just a normal person. So there was no difficulty in brainwashing them.”

“okay..”

Jo Won looked at Jung Min and said.

“So…what do you think now? After making me confess to the fact that I brainwashed the head of the Shelter, are you going to kick me out of the Shelter? That doesn’t sound like a bad idea. It’s okay… you don’t have to get blood on your hands…”

“Oh… that’s not a bad idea.”

Jo Won was taken aback by Jung Min’s words.

“Come to think of it, this seems like a really good method? I don’t think I’ll feel guilty because I don’t use my hands myself… You’re really smart. Please think of a good method like this.”

“…”

Jo Won was silently staring at the floor with his head down.

“…Well, I’m kidding here. Why are you kicking out the personnel officer? If the Shelter’s powerful person who brainwashed the Shelter head is my slave, then this Shelter is mine… isn’t it?”

Jo Won’s mouth twitched at Jung Min’s words.

At the same time, I hurriedly covered my forehead to see if the pain was coming from my forehead.

After holding his forehead for a while and taking a few deep breaths, Jo Won lowered his hand as if the pain had subsided.

Looking at Jo-won, Jung-min said.

“It seems that hatred towards me comes out all the time. The personnel manager needs to control his mind a little better. What if it hurts like that every time he sees me?”

“…..”

Jungmin sighed lightly and said to Jowon.

“Well… I don’t have any plans to do anything to the HR manager anymore. You’re my slave now anyway. I hope you will work hard for me in the future.”

Jo Won looked at Jung Min with an expressionless expression.

Jung-min smiled at Jo-won.

“Okay, can’t we just do it? Always take care of your heart like that.”

“…”

“Well, it seems like a good opportunity. Anyway, I won’t be able to do everything alone.. Let’s try laying the large shelter on our back. I hope that the personnel officer will continue to operate this shelter well in the future. Please help me on both sides.”

“all right..”

“Well, I…just came here to make a deal with Daesung. Today’s deal went well, so I plan to visit with various items in the future. Do you understand?”

Joe’s eyes sparkled.

“…Are you saying you want to trade normally?”

“Then, since the personnel officer is my slave, did you know that you could rob the shelter’s supplies at will? Well, you can do it if you want to… It’s the Shelter you’re doing.”

“…..”

“As expected, the gates outside right now…that’s just the beginning. It’s only a D-class gate. Gates will appear. As the personnel officer said, if you don’t have strength, it will collapse soon.”

“….Yes?”

“Just listen. Anyway, as the personnel officer said, develop the strength of the Shelter as much as possible. Raise the level of the awakened people in the combat unit as much as possible, and kill as many monsters as possible to collect gold. Gold will be available at the shop that will open soon. All the things that are lacking will be available there. It would be nice if each individual received a certain percentage of their gold, like a tax, or use it like a shelter money. I don’t know if you can exchange gold or not. ..Take care of that and think about it”

Jo Won was looking at Jung Min with his mouth open.

“Now… I don’t even know what you’re talking about. A D-level gate? There are so many levels of gates on top of that? A store, what the hell… No, where did you get that information from?”

Jung-min buried himself on the sofa and said.

“It’s a trade secret.”
