76 – World 11. Search (4)
With Shin Ji-ae’s performance, I was able to gather about 130kg when I cleaned up all the bad guys and even collected the crystals.
Even including me, Karina, Muel, Ren, Lee Si-yeon and Shin Ji-ae, it was an amount that I could have over 20kg.
Carina and Muel said with surprised expressions on their faces, as if they didn’t know how to gather so many crystals.
“As far as the job level… I’ll definitely raise it.”
“that’s right. I’m sure it will go up at least 5 levels.”
“However, the body level is ambiguous.”
Of course, it was Shin Ji-ae’s solo performance now.
Shin Ji-ae, who was transferred to her original body, was far from the player’s system, so there was a possibility that her body level would not rise.
‘I can’t help it until there.’
Thinking so, I looked at Karina and Muel, who were talking for a while.
The two of them spoke in admiration, but I could see that the eyes looking at Lee Si-yeon and Shin Ji-ae had changed a lot compared to the first time.
Maybe it was a normal thing, I didn’t know.
Shin Ji-ae alone dealt with 7,000 to 8,000 vicious tribes, and Lee Si-yeon said that her skills were similar.
To put it simply, there was a high possibility that Karina and Muel would think of them as being different from themselves.
“…”
“…”
In particular, Isla and Tanesa just stared blankly at Shin Ji-ae without saying anything.
Regardless of whether or not, Lee Si-yeon spoke in a bright tone as usual.
“Now, can we go inside the hatchery and find Ayla’s father?”
“I’ll look for it, but won’t it be there?”
Since the 5th stage evolutionary object, Kshura, did not appear, I wondered if it was possible.
Lee Si-yeon immediately understood my words and nodded.
“Ah, sure. Because they said that a guy named Kshura took it.”
“In case you don’t know, let’s look around and deal with it.”
“yes.”
To my words, Lee Si-yeon answered as if she understood and moved on.
* * *
Lee Si-yeon moved briskly to the hatchery and unknowingly glanced at the people around her one by one.
To be precise, I was focusing on Carina, Muelle, and Ren, who had joined Lee Sung-min’s company in this world.
‘Mr. Karina is…’
We greeted each other when we first met, but we never talked to each other.
Instead, just looking at his first impression, he felt more like a single-minded general who seemed to be able to solve anything by himself.
‘Though it seems different now.’
When we were together like this, I felt that I was completely dependent on Lee Sung-min.
I don’t know if I don’t know, but I don’t see it as a person who gets help and pretends not to know, so I wondered if it would be rewarded later.
‘Come to think of it, it’s amazing. It’s amazing.’
Where do you get this woman from?
Regardless of what you think, Karina was a pretty attractive woman.
At first glance, the dark blue hair with a mysterious feeling, slightly raised eyes that tinged with nervousness and tiredness, and cool features.
It reminded me of a talented beauty team leader in a large company.
‘Anyway, Karina seems to be relying on Lee Sung-min.’
Lee Si-yeon’s gaze slowly turned to Muel, who was sitting next to her.
A woman with long, lush brown hair and a small build similar to Shin Ji-ae.
He always had a bright smile, but once in a while he showed a strange feeling in his eyes looking at Lee Sung-min.
Of course, Lee Si-yeon did not miss even that.
‘How did he seduce me?’
About two weeks have passed since Sungmin Lee came over here.
Even so, Lee Si-yeon, who had already taken three women with her and confirmed that one of them was half way over, secretly admired.
Lee Seong-min persuaded him with his last words, and it seemed as if he would definitely come over as much as Mu-elle.
‘On the other hand, a child named Ren…’
Lee Si-yeon, who had met so many people so far, was also not sure.
They were just standing there blankly and walking together as if they had a philosophical view of everything in the world.
‘What the hell is he?’
It was difficult for Lee Si-yeon to look like she didn’t want anything different from her young age.
Then, sometimes, when Lee Sung-min stroked Shin Ji-ae’s hair or comforted her, he looked away and stared at her.
‘Affection? No, it’s different from that.’
Shin Ji-ae wanted affection, but Ren was a little different from that.
Even for Siyeon Lee, it was difficult to figure out that what Ren wanted was to ‘eat his life raw’.
At that time, Ayla, who was indebted to District 1, approached and talked to him.
“You are so amazing. I heard that everyone, including Lee Si-yeon, is strong, but it is more than I imagined.”
Lee Si-yeon replied as if it was nothing.
“What. Seongmin here is much better than me. If Seongmin showed his original power here, would he kill the king in one fell swoop?”
“No, is that… true?”
When Ayla asked in disbelief, Lee Sung-min didn’t say anything.
Even though she couldn’t even see her expression because she was wearing armor, it was Ayla who felt that the silence was true.
Ayla also said, confirming that Lee Sung-min and his colleagues really have the ability to put the world under their feet.
“IM jealous.”
Siyeon Lee looked at Ayla for a moment, who replied that she was envious.
And then, subtly, he took her and moved little by little.
“Ayla, do you want to become stronger too?”
“Yes? Yes, it is.”
“If it’s Ayla, it’s possible.”
Lee Si-yeon replied that Ayla could become strong enough.
Ayla didn’t know why Siyeon Lee was saying this, but she was curious and asked.
“What do you mean I can do it?”
“Think of me and my colleagues whom Sungmin invited. Don’t you think the gender is biased?”
“that’s······.”
At that, Ayla nodded.
Strangely, there were no men among Lee Sung-min’s colleagues.
All of the more than 40 colleagues, including Lee Si-yeon, were women.
“Sungmin can transcend human limitations only as a woman.”
“Transcendence?”
“Yes. It’s about transcending the body.”
Then, when I told her how to do it, Ayla made a surprised expression, and soon even her face turned red.

Following the first hatchery, they dealt with the second hatchery, but Ayla’s father was not found.
It’s too early to jump to conclusions since we’ve only dealt with two hatcheries, but I wondered if it might be in its base.
In addition, it took a considerable amount of time to collect the crystals.
‘Two hatcheries in one day…’
Afterwards, I summoned the snow wind bird to return to Cairo Fortress to confirm my achievements in handling the hatchery.
Because of the snowstorm, I couldn’t hide my small disappointment when I visited the temple under the eyes of countless soldiers and players staying in the Cairo Fortress.
【③ Job Level (36)】
【④ Protection Level (5)】(↑1UP)
【⑤ Body Level (71)】(↑4UP)
As expected, it was because the evil tribe Shin Ji-ae dealt with did not enter the exploits.
I had experienced something similar before when I summoned my colleagues and did some experiments.
When I came over to my original body, donated food, and checked my body level, it didn’t rise at all.
‘This would be a little difficult.’
When I thought that the only thing I could get was the job level through crystals, it was a waste to even deal with the hatchery for some reason.
‘Once I got the 2nd level blessing.’
I was able to obtain the 2nd stage blessing, so I chose ‘skill enhancement’ as before, as if the achievement of handling two hatcheries was acknowledged.
[Selection completed.]
[You have selected the Blessing of Skill Enhancement.]
This made it possible to raise the skill level by 20 once a day.
Also, after checking the level and selecting the blessing, I closed the connection with a promise for tomorrow.
As soon as I disconnected, I saw Carina, Muel, and Ren, who had disconnected along with me.
‘Now let’s prepare dinner.’
Thinking of it, I pulled out Lee Si-yeon and Shin Ji-ae from my hero card.
Realizing that they had returned to the future world, they went down to the kitchen on the first floor with me.
“What are you going to do?”
Siyeon Lee asked if he noticed my troubles with him.
It seemed like he was asking if he was going to treat the hatchery like this.
“You have to keep dealing with it. Because that’s also a request in the first place.”
“Then I’ll have to tell Mr. Blair, who went to Cairo Fort, to go to another fort.”
As Siyeon Lee said, if all the hatcheries there were dealt with, it would be difficult for Blair and her colleagues to level up after going to the Cairo Fortress.
It was originally connected to increase strength, so it wouldn’t be bad to move to another fortress.
‘Even if I think about it again, the damage is severe.’
The 20 androids he was supposed to receive in return were only a small comfort.
“ah.”
Lee Si-yeon said as if she had just remembered what had happened at that time.
“Come to think of it, that white-haired kid. What is he like?”
“wren? Why Ren?”
“I don’t seem to be interested in the connection itself. From what I’ve seen, it seems like you’re not interested in leveling up by dealing with evil tribes at all?”
Listening to Lee Si-yeon’s words, I seemed to know what she wanted to ask.
“Well… I’m not interested in that. It’s all about wanting to eat life raw.”
“Eat your life raw?”
“I thought you wanted a life without any worries?”
“yes?”
In response to my answer, Lee Si-yeon smiled dejectedly for a moment, then smiled as if she was hiding something inside.
“Are you preparing dinner? I will help you too.”
