A three-story building.
The sign was engraved with large letters.
[Heater Guild]
A man who looks at the sign and shakes his head with his arms crossed.
“Finally… .!”
He said happily.
“It is a new beginning.”
The Heater Guild was a small and medium-sized player guild with its own scale.
There are more than 100 members in total, and Piljong Kim, the guild leader of the Heater Guild, could be said to be an expert who reached the ranks.
A guild that has strong inner stability and has good reviews from those around it.
That was the Heater Guild.
“Guild leader. Are you happy?”
Piljong Kim nodded at the voice coming from the side.
“Not like that.”
There was a deep emotion in his eyes.
“Now that your hardship is over, how can you not be happy?”
Originally, Heater was a guild based in Seoul, a volcanic sphere.
Piljong Kim, who established a guild independently from the original guild under Hwasan.
However, the reality was very different from his thoughts.
“When was the last time you attacked the gate properly?”
Although he became independent under the umbrella of the volcano, Piljong Kim did not follow the volcano.
“It must have been three months.”
It’s because I’m tired of the garbage that people have been doing under the volcano, and the actions that ignore human dignity.
Nevertheless, the reason he set up a guild in Seoul was because he had all the connections and wealth he had built up in Seoul.
But the cost of not setting up a guild in Seoul and not following the volcano was too great.
“What about our guild members who died in that attack?”
“Six died.”
It couldn’t be called a proper guild.
It became a small and medium-sized guild because the players who originally believed and followed Pil-jong Kim became independent together, and received a good evaluation due to the efforts of Pil-jong Kim.
“Yes. It did.”
In reality, it was nothing more than a rotted, mutilated corpse.
The price of not following the volcano in the sphere of influence.
I couldn’t get a proper ticket to attack the gate, and even if I did, I could only attack in the form of a joint attack or being used by an unmanned guild inside the volcano.
It was just a porter or just a bowl of arrows.
It was a time of enduring such sorrow.
“Then what are our plans for attack?”
“Five.”
Piljong Kim smiled.
New opportunities.
“Gyeonggi-do is a land of opportunity.”
Piljong Kim abandoned everything he had built and transferred the Heater Guild to Gyeonggi-do.
This time, it was a gamble with Eunha, whose name was raised at the gate of Gyeonggi-do, in mind.
In the past, Eunha has been praised for not bad treatment of players.
Most of the people distrusted and did not believe the rumors, but Piljong Kim, thinking that he could not die like this, secretly contacted Baran and promised a transfer.
“We seized the opportunity.”
In conclusion, Piljong Kim’s choice paid off.
Thanks to the promise of a quick transfer, I was promised a lot of interest in Baran, a member of the galaxy, and realized that the rumors that others did not believe were true.
“Galaxy does not discriminate against players.”
However, it is a form of grazing rather than treating players.
But it’s somewhere.
Nowhere in Seoul, or even Korea, where the heater was originally was treated like this.
The same was true of China and other parts of Asia.
Despite the difference, Gyeonggi Province was the only place that gave players such an opportunity.
And what about it?
Gyeonggi-do was a vast land that could not be compared to Seoul.
There were so many gates that it was a structure that only Baran and Galactic could monopolize.
Land of opportunity.
“We have a fresh start here.”
Piljong Kim said without suppressing his overwhelming emotions.
“The future heater… .”
“Congratulations on the opening.”
A guest has arrived.
“That is nonsense!”
Piljong Kim, forgetting his old age, shouted frivolously.
“How… !”
The puffy cheeks were telling him how angry he was.
But those who deal with him.
“Doesn’t that make sense?”
The man, with his hair neatly tucked in an all-back, said with a relaxed attitude.
“Are you denying that Guild Leader Kim Pil-jong borrowed 2 billion won from Money Carry five years ago?”
“How could it be!”
Piljong Kim sat down and said, barely controlling his emotions.
“I definitely borrowed it.”
If it was five years ago, it was the story of when the guild was founded independently.
At that time, there was definitely a time when the money saved for independence was not enough, so I borrowed money to establish a guild.
“Three years ago, you borrowed an additional 5 billion won.”
Guild life in Seoul, the guild leader, Piljong Kim, sat down in debt, far from money.
Since he couldn’t attack the gate properly, there was no hole for money to come out, and he couldn’t starve the hundreds of players who believed in him and followed him.
I sold my house and sold all of my possessions to survive, but I had no choice but to borrow more money.
“Total 7 billion won. You borrowed it.”
Everything he said is true.
“I am paying off both principal and interest!”
Piljong Kim was paying the money properly.
“By the way, you want to transfer ownership of the Heater Guild!”
But the man says he will take the Heater Guild if he can’t pay his debts.
“Did you not check the changed contract?”
A man waving papers in such a Kim Pil-jong.
“Obviously, the seal of Guild Leader Kim Pil-jong is stamped here.”
Piljong Kim’s eyes widened.
“The seal is… .”
I was lost.
It was lost by a thief in the guild, and then reissued.
But Piljong Kim knew.
‘You got hit.’
That his cry only echoes hollowly.
Piljong Kim, who had closed his eyes, opened his eyes carefully and said.
“How much in total. My debt.”
Money Carry, from which he borrowed money, was a loan company, but was established by a former colleague of the player.
Due to the relationship at that time, I had borrowed money at an acceptable interest rate, even if it was excessive.
“Three-five billion, sixty-two million won.”
By the way, I thought that I had paid the principal and interest steadily, but the answers I heard were too absurd, even if they were absurd.
‘I’ve heard of it.’
This is often the case.
“Money Carry… Has it been taken over?”
It has been about two years since I lost contact with the president of Money Carry, who I borrowed money from.
I was busy trying to make a living, so I didn’t look for him, and even if I didn’t contact him, there was no problem in paying my debts, so I just skipped it.
That was a patchwork.
A man who smiles at Piljong Kim’s words.
Darkness fell on Kim Pil-jong’s face.
If you hear it often.
A story of players in need of money who borrow money and pay it back steadily, but lose all their fortunes because of a contract that has not been changed.
It’s against the law, and this absurd fraud against players continues to this day.
The subject of the scam.
“Geumgae Group took over.”
The goldfish group.
“Open… .”
It’s open.
“Where is this nonsense!”
At that time, the unbearable deputy guild leader came up and shouted.
“I will formally report this to the association and the society! What a scammer like this… .”
He said he couldn’t contain his anger, but he was careful because his name was so high.
“Cheater?”
But that was only the deputy chief’s opinion.
“Now… Did you say we are scammers?”
“That’s what it means… .”
“Dare you.”
Life casts on the face of the man who sat quietly.
“Who the beggar sees who is a swindler?”
Your tone of voice has completely changed.
“Gee, calm down… !”
Piljong Kim stood up and tried to stop him, but his voice did not come out as if something had blocked it.
“If you borrow money and eat it, you have to pay it back. Can’t you see the stamp here? am i a scammer Or are you guys cheating because you have to borrow money and pay it back?”
Now the man who stood up looked at the vice guild leader.
The deputy guild leader was reckless and tried to protest.
“Kill it.”
The man’s orders fell too easily.
A dull pounding sound resounded in the guild master’s room of the Heater Guild.
Pick. burr.
The deputy guild leader collapsed and his head was deeply depressed.
The man in a suit was standing behind him, and he suddenly moved and held a thick club in his hand.
“Fuck you bastards. Who do you dare call a scammer?”
A man who is smiling while draping his life.
Piljong Kim closed his eyes tightly.
‘It’s over.’
I thought it was an opportunity, and I thought it was a new beginning.
For the players and the inhabitants of Earth, a dreamlike future did not exist.
“Sea? Association? do whatever you want. But today we have a heater guild. Empty it out, because if you don’t get out right away, I’ll kill you all.”
“Guild leader.”
The voice that calls Piljong Kim.
The guild members were trembling.
It was both because of fear and anger.
“Really… Empty?”
Even at this moment, the guild members who had been neatly dressed and loaded up were leaving the building with their luggage again.
“Guild leader… !”
It was crazy.
Because they were the players who saw and followed Kim Pil-jong, they knew the affection and hard work that Kim Pil-jong had for the Heater Guild.
But the sudden arrival took it all away.
I still can’t do anything.
I know it’s dishonest, immoral, and illegal.
“Guild leader… .”
I still can’t do anything.
“Then what will you do?”
There is no one who will stand by their side.
If your opponents are players, players, or large corporations created by ordinary people, it’s worth fighting for.
Because there are still laws and morals in this world.
However, all of those measures were only applicable to the inhabitants of the Earth.
“The opponent is a gold group.”
is.
“I mean openness.”
No one can help you against openness.
The deputy guild chief, whose head exploded and died, mentioned the association and the society.
‘Can they help us?’
They have been silent on a lot of things so far and only take rough measures?
“Ha… , haha… .”
Will the life of the sub-guild chief, who was as good as dead in broad daylight, be compensated for this?
“Ha ha ha… .”
This is the world.
I was madly resentful that I had hoped for even a moment in this world.
At that time, the man who came out of the geumgae came in front of Piljong Kim again.
“Now, the Heater Guild building and the list of properties the Heater Guild had, and… .”
He said while looking at the documents.
“Including the value of the heater, we will set it at around 15 billion won. so… .”
“I have a little over one hundred and fifty won left. I wish you all the best in the future. Guild Master… No, player Kim Piljong.”
Piljong Kim thought to the voice that was clearly mocking.
‘Let’s die.’
When he opened his eyes again, life lingered in his eyes.
A life that will go to hell anyway, like a dog on the verge of death, I will try and die.
“Everything that will happen from now on is not the heater, as you said, but the job of the player Piljong Kim.”
Piljong Kim gripped the sword that was attached to his waist.
“I came here to celebrate the opening.”
I heard a drowsy voice from behind.
