Saved a Heroine From the Brink of Death

17. Unreasonable unfair contract

#17. Unfair contracts that cannot be refused

“I think the letter went well… Could it be that you didn’t throw it away?”

There was no doubt that the letter I sent went well.

Unless the postman spilled the letter, it would have been properly delivered.

“The question is whether you have read and accepted it properly… hmm.”

I was induced to read all of them, but I don’t know if the induction worked well.

However, I think it is highly probable.

He said he would teach you how to use a new ability for free… Shouldn’t it be below?

“Yes. It’s useless worry. If it doesn’t work, we can send it back.”

I gave up on the letter.

Then I started thinking about the [Original novel].

[ Doing it all at the academy ]

This is the title of the novel I possessed.

Of course, after the mid-to-late half, the stage changes to the entire world, not the academy, but… That’s it anyway.

‘Things that Lee Soo-hyeok will monopolize… Can I be intercepted? Hmm.’

It was a problem I was thinking about these days.

Whether it would be good or bad to raise Cynthia by stealing the things the original protagonist would occupy.

Because this bastard has a dog-like personality… That’s the problem.’

When I read the novel, it was good to just clean up the enemies in front of me.

Because sweet potatoes didn’t exist.

I couldn’t resist the constant injection of cool cider.

But when I thought about possessing it, there was no crazy person like this.

Being self-righteous and selfish is basic.

She has a vicious personality to the point of doing anything for her own gain.

Because of that, I had many enemies.

‘In the course of raising Cynthia, she is going to run into this guy… What should I do?’

Of course, it is still before the buds grow.

Of course, there was no problem with me messing with Lee Soo-hyuk.

Easier than killing an intermediate hero.

It is also possible to just secretly bury it. I’m talking about what you really ask.

‘But getting rid of it all… kinda like that Because the original cases had to be solved by Lee Soo-hyuk. Even if Cynthia becomes stronger, there may be things that are impossible.’

The problem was this.

Can Cynthia completely replace Lee Soo-hyuk by becoming stronger?

It took.

It’s a little hard to say this, but… Lee Soo-hyeok is a man who deserves the expression of being a human being.

Even if I said that I would support them, they would skip the essentials and not feel grateful to me.

He’s the guy who’s thinking about how to get something better out of me.

Besides, even if he reached an advanced level, he would threaten me in reverse.

I can’t stand that.

At that time.

A good idea came to my mind.

“Isn’t it okay to put a leash on Lee Soo-hyuk?”

Yes.

If it were the future, I wouldn’t be able to control it… It is possible now.

Use that point.

I keep growing and using it only to the extent that I can control it.

‘Using Lee Soo-hyuk… Solve the original events, and give the reward to Cynthia. This is it.’

Do you think Lee Soo-hyeok’s lack of growth will make him screw up?

Then you can attach Cynthia to it.

If this guy is going to harm Cynthia… ? You just have to grab me once, stir it up, and imprint it.

This is it.

This works.

Concluding an unfair contract with the original protagonist.

This must be resolved first.

I prepared the groundwork for this.

***

276/317.

Cynthia’s hands trembled as she received the slip test report card.

“This, this is nonsense….”

[ D+ ]

It’s neither B nor C, it’s D.

Although it has a plus… That was no comfort at all.

The first digit is 2, and I recorded a ranking number of 3 digits, but… D Rani… D Rani… !

Cynthia denied reality the moment she received her report card.

‘hahahaha. It must be a dream Could I have gotten a D….’

How hard did you prepare for this paper test?

Yeah, there’s no way he got a D.

Yes. This must be a dream

“Siya. Cheer up.”

“D… Goa. Hmm. This can be happen.”

“I can’t….”

But Cynthia had no choice but to accept that the situation was real.

Yes. I’m screwed.

‘If only I hadn’t seen that letter… No, even if it’s just a day late… !’

Cynthia hated the letter for nothing.

‘That letter. The letter made my test scores….’

Thanks to her letter, she realized a new ability.

Way of the wind.

It was a great ability.

And while using that ability… I inadvertently stayed up all night.

Thanks to that, the score on the note test also went up tremendously.

“Ha ha. Why did i do that I should have gone to bed earlier….”

Even if you slept quickly, B is not… C would have received Actually, there is a difference between D+ and C- by one point.

“It’s D….”

There was a good reason why Cynthia was getting a grade of D and trembling.

Devil’s Score D.

If you get this score, you must take supplementary classes.

Not only that.

If, for any reason, she gets three D’s in that class, she will not be credited with taking that class.

It also included a simple test like a paper test. That’s why everyone is trying hard not to get a D.

And Cynthia,

With this, she received her 3rd D in Witchcraft II.

‘… I want to cry.’

She learns how to use the Way of the Wind, She

She lost points and lost an hour of class.

“… Is this real?”

Lee Soo-hyeok looked at the guild scout who came to visit him and asked with a surprised expression.

It’s not good to show your emotions so easily before a deal.

But there was a reason why it had to be.

Because the contract was offered with ridiculously generous conditions.

Even using the right of priority contact.

“Of course. Is there anything you don’t like?”

Ares scout Joo Hae-yeon asked Lee Soo-hyuk.

“No… All conditions seem perfect. However, I was curious about the reason for putting these conditions on me.”

Lee Soo-hyuk has returned to his usual state of calm.

There is no favor without reason.

And, there will be a price to pay for such good conditions.

That was Lee Soo-hyuk’s decision.

A guild is a group that seeks profit, not a group that just spreads out.

‘No matter how promising I am… This condition is too much.’

There were many conditions, but these were the best ones.

– After joining the Ares Guild, one premium elixir is provided every year.

– Annual salary of 500 million won.

– Immediately upon signing the contract, 1 advanced elixir is provided.

– Immediately upon signing the contract, A-class artifacts are paid.

-Immediate payment of 1 billion won as down payment.

It was an undeserved condition for Lee Soo-hyeok, who hadn’t even become a hero yet.

Excluding the conditions of supplying elixirs and artifacts, the conditions were similar to those presented to him by other guilds.

‘Although there are provisions that take a bit of time… There should be no problem at this level.’

-However, all accessories obtained through personal activities or gate exploration belong to the guild.

Lee Soo-hyeok was concerned about the above, but more than that, the finest elixir and artifact caught his eye.

Aren’t these things that cannot be obtained with money?

In the first place, the items obtained through gate exploration belong to the guild. This is an industry rule. Only the condition of individual activities was added there.

‘It’s an individual activity… Do you want to go to work? Even if I did, I wouldn’t know if I was sneaking around anyway. It’s as if this clause doesn’t exist.’

It’s okay if you don’t get caught.

What if I get caught? Give it

You just have to keep the things you got without getting caught.

‘There must be a reason for making this proposal… If I just figured out that, I think the awkwardness will go away.’

However, Lee Soo-hyuk did not take it lightly.

No matter how good the conditions are, they do not readily accept them. I have to check whether this is a poisoned chalice or not.

At least one had to be checked.

What benefits does Ares, one of the top-tier guilds, get by putting up such favorable conditions?

‘Ares is already a top-notch guild. What is the advantage that Ares can gain by using me, an academy cadet, with Priority Contact?’

Around the time Lee Soo-hyeok was pondering over the contract, his scout Ju Hae-yeon smiled and said to him.

“You seem to be curious about the reason for offering such good conditions.”

“… To be honest, yes. There is no reason for Ares to offer me these conditions.”

Lee Soo-hyeok ranks first in the second year of the academy.

He was also number one in his freshman year, and this grade will be maintained until the moment he graduates.

Because he overwhelmingly occupies first place.

He got an A- due to a recent sprain, but even taking that into account, there was an overwhelming gap with second place.

“The reason is simple. You want to make a star. Recently, other guilds have also noticed a movement to recruit promising players and raise them in earnest from the time they were academy cadets. Ares is also trying to raise Lee Soo-hyeok as such a star.”

This is a story that Lee Soo-hyuk has heard before.

Using the right of priority contact, potential cadets are contracted in advance and brought to the guild immediately after they become heroes. And using it to put it up as the main signboard of the guild.

However, even taking that into consideration, the conditions are too high.

“I don’t think your question has been answered yet.”

“Yes.”

“Originally… We wouldn’t have presented these conditions either. It’s not that we have too much money.”

Lee Soo-hyuk nodded.

Unless the money rots and overflows, it is a condition that cannot be presented.

From the moment you officially join the guild, you will receive the finest elixir every year….

Isn’t that a contract condition that only a few of the advanced heroes are offered?

“By the way, I recently received an investment from SJ. You know SJ?”

“SJ? Are you talking about the SJ in America?”

“Yes. Are you a famous investment company? It is famous for being rich in money. There is also a branch in Korea. To be precise, it received investment from that branch. Are your doubts resolved?”

When Lee Soo-hyuk heard that, he burst out laughing.

‘Khehehehe… SJ. Because of that place, he blew hundreds of millions… Is there a chance like this this time? Life is so much fun.’

Lee Soo-hyuk suddenly recalled the memory of losing hundreds of millions of dollars in stocks because of SJ.

If it wasn’t for that, he would have bought an intermediate elixir and taken it.

But… This time, thanks to SJ, I was able to sign a contract with the best guild under crazy conditions.

‘There is no more doubt. He has a lot of money, and he has a cause. There is no point in worrying about it any longer.’

Lee Soo-hyuk immediately signed the contract.

“Yes. I will make a contract.”

Lee Soo-hyeok could not have imagined it at the time.

How many future rolls and exploits he will be due to the provisions he ignored.
