Saved a Heroine From the Brink of Death

16. Letter of Fortune

#16. Chain letter

A man in a black suit put a cigar in his mouth.

Profit. A cloud of gray smoke filled the office.

There were many people in the office besides men.

Some people were coughing because it was full of soot.

Someone could have pointed it out to the man, but in the office, no one looked at him, let alone pointed it out.

The man smoking a cigar blew out the smoke violently.

It is also right in front of him, towards his subordinates in front of him.

“Whoa.”

The name of the man with the stern look is Robeman.

The former head of a gang and the current mercenary leader who runs an S-class mercenary group.

“How many elixirs did you buy?”

“126 Lower ranks. Intermediate 56. Advanced 16. The finest… I couldn’t buy any.”

The secretary, who was hit by the cigar smoke emitted by Loveman, continued to report with an expressionless face despite the stinging eyes from the fumes.

“Sorry.”

“… What?”

“The finest elixir… I couldn’t save it.”

Top quality elixir.

It is an elixir that is rarely found in high-difficulty gates, and its circulation is extremely small.

Also, those things that are not circulated are owned by the rich, who won’t sell them even if they put money in a truck.

“Ha. f*ck.”

Robemann took the cigar he was smoking from his mouth. Then he grabbed it with his hand and squeezed it.

The fire must have been full of heat, but there was no hesitation in his actions.

That’s how hot it was.

“You couldn’t find it today? What do you mean? Hey this sh*t… I saw with my own eyes that 7 of the finest elixirs were uploaded in a few days… You couldn’t find it? Makes sense! Does that make sense!”

Bang! Only Robe hit the desk and stood up.

There are 6 that came up through the official route, and if you include the unofficial route, there will be well over 20. However… You couldn’t find any of them?

Robemann couldn’t believe it.

“Sorry, sorry!”

“They said they needed a lot of elixirs as the number of mercenaries increased. But getting only half of the target is not enough… Couldn’t find any of the finest? Are you kidding uh! Am I freaking out?”

The secretary immediately hit her head on the ground.

It was because he knew very well that his mercenary leader, Robeman, was invisible when angry.

“I don’t have enough money, what am I missing! Uh! Did you give me enough money? Or put some pressure on the auction house!”

“That, that….”

“What are you talking about? Is your mouth blocked? Tear it up?”

“Oh, no! In one place, only the finest elixirs were collected in the same way… We couldn’t use our hands. Besides, he also had a hand in the auction house….”

“Ha! f*ck. Take the money You can do it!”

Isn’t it okay to buy the existing elixir at 5x or 6x the price?

It doesn’t matter how much. A high-end elixir actually does more than money.

“Because they are crazy people who race the highest quality elixir at least ten times the existing price… I just couldn’t compete.”

“What? Dozens of times?”

Robemann was taken aback by what his subordinates said.

Five times. No, even though I was thinking up to 7 times… Dozens of things I hadn’t even thought of.

“There is such a crazy bastard… ? The highest quality elixir starts at least hundreds of thousands of dollars… Dozens of folds ha! Are those bastards overflowing with rotten money?”

“There was a time when I bought 10ml of Gongqing Petroleum, the highest quality elixir with an estimated price of 1.5 Billion, for 180 billion won. Leader.”

“120 Times? I’m going to see all the f*cking star dorais. Have you ever been a Middle Eastern oil king? Aren’t you the only one who spends money like that on the ground?”

“That… It’s a rumor I hear. It’s called SJ. It is said that he is wiping out the finest elixirs by paying a huge price not only from the auction house, but also from private owners. It’s an atmosphere where everyone is saving themselves because of that.”

“SJ? Why does that name come out? Isn’t that an investment company?”

Robeman, who was involved in the mercenary world, knew about SJ. No, it was strange that he didn’t know.

Because Robemann’s mercenary corps also grew with SJ’s investment.

“I don’t know…. Are they planning to enter the hero industry or the mercenary industry… I am not good at judging.”

“f*ck. Done. Go see I won’t be able to see the elixir for a while.”

Robe Man thought, scratching his head.

There is no way to obtain the finest elixir as long as SJ is out.

It’s a rumor, but I heard the secretary’s report and it seemed to be correct.

He considered force as one of the means of negotiation, but… Use of force against SJ?

Immediately, the news, media, and politics will intensively attack Robemann’s Deadline mercenary corps.

S-class mercenaries? It was useless.

A team of advanced heroes will crush the Deadline mercenaries. Maybe a superlative hero will step up.

The next day, Robemann will be found dead.

The mercenary corps will be disbanded.

Those lucky enough to survive will not be able to set foot in America.

He still wanted to live longer. So, he neatly abandoned his lingering attachment to the finest elixir.

… Maybe someday i can get it

[Features]

A Magical Awakener who has been blessed by the world.

And among those Magic Awakeners, only the lucky ones bloom.

What is obtained through this flowering is the ‘characteristic’.

Attributes allow bloomers to gain special powers.

And according to the type of power, it is classified into three series.

Talent world.

Intelligent world.

Special system.

Even if it blooms, there is no way to know or know the characteristics until you use it yourself.

Therefore, even after flowering, there are often Magic Awakeners who live without knowing what their characteristics are.

And among these, Cynthia has a special talent.

Those who have special characteristics account for less than 1% of the total number.

Ah, where is the other 99%?

It is in the talent realm and the supernatural realm.

If there are 1000 people who have developed characteristics, only 10 of them have a special system. The remaining 990 are talent and supernatural powers.

Then what is the special system?

Simple.

Attributes that do not belong to either the talent world or the supernatural world. That is special

In other words, it is a separate classification of unique characteristics.

If you listen to it like this, it doesn’t seem like anything special, but….

It wasn’t.

‘Special system characteristics are one of two things.’

There is no middle ground in the characteristics of a special system.

Therefore, when a special system characteristic is awakened, one of two results will come out.

‘A crazy good trait, or a trash trait.’

Jackpot, or side dish.

That is the fate of those who develop special characteristics.

And Cynthia was also born with that fate.

[ Waiting late ]

The jackpot of jackpots. It is a characteristic that can be called invitational.

Even if you open only the 1st stage, you will get one additional characteristic.

2 If you open up to level 2.

And Cynthia has already opened up to the second stage of this atmospheric chronicity.

By doing so, we obtained two characteristics.

Monstrous retardation.

Way of the wind.

Attributes that can be safely called the pinnacle of the talent realm and the supernatural realm, respectively.

But even if you have acquired these traits, if you don’t use them properly, they’re a pearl necklace around a pig’s neck.

‘It’s not just feeding the elixir… It would be good to tell them how to use the attributes and tips.’

Therefore, I decided to teach Cynthia about the characteristics.

As an avid reader who has read a lot of original novels.

‘… But how should I tell them?’

Now the elixir can be fed somehow.

For what reason can I, as a civilian, teach Cynthia… ?

“Ah… ! That should be enough.”

A good idea came to my mind.

***

“Letter… ? To me?”

Cynthia went down to the first floor of her dormitory when she suddenly heard that a package had come to her.

Then she went back to her room with a letter.

[ Recipient – Cynthia ]

Address: Korean Hero Training School… ….

“Really? Who sent it… ?”

Cynthia flipped through her letter and examined it.

However, it was not written who the sender was.

The sender’s address was not written.

“I can’t guess….”

It was certain that it had come to her.

Cynthia decided to open her mail and look at her contents first.

▷ To cadet Cynthia, Class 2 A of Academy

-This letter started in London in the 17th century and travels around the globe to deliver good luck to the recipient!

‘… Are you crazy?’

This was the thought I had as soon as I saw the first sentence.

What kind of crazy person would have sent such a letter to himself?

She is Cynthia who usually keeps a distance from swearing, but… When she suddenly saw her lucky letter, she swallowed her curse inwardly.

What kind of letter could it be? She opened it with full expectations, but she was very disappointed.

‘Shall I read a little more….’

Cynthia, contemplating whether to throw her letter in the trash immediately, decided to read her letter a little more.

-First of all, all the information described below is information that I found out based on my characteristics, and I do not intend to share it anywhere else, so please rest assured.

-You have special characteristics.

-And because of that trait, it now has two additional traits.

– Superpower Retarded, Path of the Wind.

-Electrons have a passive property that allows them to gain strong power.

-The latter is an active attribute that allows you to temporarily control the wind.

– I will guide you through these two characteristics.

“… ???”

As Cynthia read the letter halfway through, her question mark appeared in her mind.

‘What nonsense is this… ? Has anyone played a prank on me? I just want to punch you in the way you speak.’

I wondered what bullsh*t this was.

He knows what his characteristics are, and he will tell you about them.

‘To just ignore… It takes something called monstrous retardation… It is clear that his power has become stronger recently. But was it because of his characteristics?’

Cynthia wanted to ignore the absurd contents of the letter, but it took a physical retardation to do so.

She decided to read the letter to the end.

– There is only one price.

-You can help me later when I need you.

“… There are no conditions for payment. It’s too blunt. Is this part to be negotiated separately later?”

She read her letter quite seriously.

-Before proceeding with the work, wouldn’t it be better to build trust?

-To prove that my words are real… I’ll start by telling you how to properly use Wind Road.

-Maybe you are not aware that you have opened the Wind Way, so I will start by telling you how to use the Wind Way.

-How to…….

“Let’s try it just once… ?”

He didn’t even know if the contents of the letter were true.

Maybe someone was playing a prank to keep her studies in check. Of course, since she is at the bottom of her handwriting, the possibility is… Not much.

‘It only takes a moment…. Huh. This should be fine.’

Since I have a paper test the very next day, I have to open the textbook and study, but.

This was unbearable.

“Yes… ! I need to check if the contents of the letter are true or not… !”

Cynthia said it was because of the letter, and she justified her self by saying that she couldn’t help it.

She closed her textbook and headed to her training room.
