When I came out of the entrance of the district office, there were several business people and reporters waiting for me. It seemed that the fact that a new gate had been registered was known to the outside world. I already knew that this often happens, so I wasn’t too taken aback.
My skill level is too high to be embarrassed in the first place.
But then a funny thing happens.
–Someone tries to hypnotize. Skill Brightness Index is activated. would you like it back?
The message that came out when I was in the same situation in the past was this.
– Opponent attempts hypnosis. Will you resist?
But when someone says hypnosis, it must mean one of those people, and the problem is the story behind that. It’s not resistance, it’s asking if you want to give it back. While the Myungkyung Index was activated.
“okay.”
Then, one person’s eyes are slightly opened. I waved at him. Then he comes to me
“Tell me the truth about who you are and what you tried to hypnotize me about.”
Then the man says
“I am Manager Jeong Chang-gil of the Planning and Coordination Office of Daehoo Group. And a hunter, and a hypnotist. When a new gate owner appears, the mission is to hypnotize him and proceed with the contract in favor of the Daehoo Group.”
It is said that hypnosis is used to make a favorable contract. However, from what I have learned, hypnosis is not omnipotent. In particular, the hypnosis of this man, Jeong Chang-gil, is only level 2. If this is enough, can I bet on the level of suggestion?
It seems that Jung Chang-gil, who was given back, suffered more seriously. I just realized how to use hypnosis. So if you want to use hypnosis, you can use it. But for some reason, this was a bit reluctant, so I put it on hold. If I really need it later, I plan to register it as a skill at that time.
“Is there anyone who is broadcasting in real time?”
someone raises their hand If so, this is an understatement. It was broadcast live to the world that a leading conglomerate in Korea was doing such dirty things. Well, of course, later I will make all kinds of excuses and cut my tail, but for now, I’m satisfied with this.
“You seem to be curious about our gate, but our gate is an island. It is also a very small island. You know what that means? Later, when I can afford it, I plan to build a small farming area to develop it as a resort area. Are you still interested?”
At my words, reporters and companies look at team leader Kim Mi-young, who has followed me. Then she nods. talk about it being true. Then, as if my interest had cooled, I clung to Manager Jeong Chang-gil this time. So I told Manager Jeong Chang-gil.
“Tell me what it is.”
“yes! I will take your questions.”
“This is Naeil Ilbo Reporter Kim Ga-young. Whether what I just said is true or not…”
While the reporters were concentrating on Manager Chang-Gil Jeong, I asked Mi-Young Kim, Manager of the team.
“How in real time, no. Since you knew from before, you must have come to me, right? Isn’t this a problem? And think before exile? Aren’t you a bit ridiculous?”
“I have nothing to say. sorry.”
no excuses whatsoever This case is usually one. The attitude of taking responsibility even though you have not done anything wrong. Perhaps a member of her team or someone upstairs leaked the information. Then there is no point in questioning team leader Kim Mi-young.
“I don’t know how I will change in the future. You can expect that there will probably be a lot of things that happened today, right?”
“Even if you have two mouths, you have nothing to say.”
“Then, I hope I can see you smiling next time.”
“Once again, I apologize.”
Other than his name, he was a very trustworthy person. I think that maybe we will have a relationship again in the future. I work in the department that manages gates.
“Then I’m fine.”
“Yes, take a look.”
***
Thanks to team leader Kim Mi-young, there was only one line in the article about my gate.
– Will the terrain of the newly registered gate be developed as an island or tourist destination?
Instead, another article is not very fussy.
-How far will the excessive behavior of the Daehoo group be tolerated?
– The official position of Daehoo Group. It’s just the employee’s departure. Why this explanation is funny.
-Daehoo Group’s…
The Daehoo group went into an uproar. It’s hard to say that it’s my fault. It will be an incident that will alert the places that have already done this.
Of course, the Daehoo Group said that it was the departure of Manager Chang-Gil Jeong. But why did a person who worked for a large corporation learn hypnosis skills at the gate in the first place? And if the manager in the planning control room of a large company is learning hypnosis, how many places has it been used, not just at the gate?
Suddenly, the world heated up with hypnosis skills. And in the National Assembly, a bill to implement a mandatory registration system for people with hypnotic skills was proposed, and it was passed unanimously and quickly. Perhaps it was the fear of being manipulated through hypnosis.
Several weeks passed like that.

Our Shiho Youngji is doing well today as well. Orcs are training hard to become knights, and female orcs work while chatting with the ladies. Being able to talk to each other is a great part, but when I look from the side, each of them is talking in their own language, laughing and having fun.
Are there any interpreting skills that I don’t know about? such a doubt.
Dumuri villagers are working hard on their own work. Farmers are happy to see their crops every time, and livestock farmers are also happy to see their livestock. And all these items are sold at the store run by Seon-woo’s father.
Of course, very special things are not sold there either. We only sell knowledge through the president of our company.
Of course, the best sellers at Seonwoo’s store are watermelons and pineapples. This alone made our gate famous. So, team leader Kim Mi-young contacted me saying that there were many people applying to become gate hunters.
But I don’t feel the need to increase the number of young people right now. There was no need to do that, and increasing it immediately would not help the manor. In the meantime, uncles and aunts also woke up. Everyone got along well and ate the island minotaur gomtang and the mine minotaur gomtang, and possessed at least two skills.
It was random, so there were a few situations where I got into trouble, but it was okay because they were all kind people. Among them, it was the chief who awakened the most mysterious skill. The village chief got an active skill called Lie Detector, and this is great. Never lie in front of him. just find out right away And those skills are very helpful to our territory, so I feel happy too.
“brother Brother!”
“why? why?”
“Uh, there’s a strange thing out of the woods.”
“Anything strange?”
“Oh, come quickly.”
Since Yeongju Castle is almost complete, I am paying attention to this side, but Si-yeon comes and drags me away. And when I went, what came out of the forest.
“Wow, what is it?”
Two of these things in front of my eyes.
You can tell just by looking at them that they are male and female. No, should I say male and female? Why are you talking like this? The reason is simple.
“A centaur?”
This is because it has the appearance of a centaur that appeared in mythology.
“&#(&#(&^&(#!”
After the female centaur muttered something.
“Hello, human.”
“OMG.”
Siyeon is surprised. What that woman had just muttered seemed to be some kind of interpreter magic. I took a good look at the flow.
“Is that a centaur?”
“That’s how you call our clan in your language. We call ourselves the Wind Clan.”
“okay. But what’s going on here? Our territory would not have collided with you, right?”
“Ah, there is a misunderstanding. We are not here to fight you. If so, we would have brought our warriors. of course······. I don’t think it meant much, though.”
The female centaur glanced at Hoya and said so. Seeing that he recognizes Hoya, I think that statement must be true.
“Then what happened?”
“It is for communication. You have something that we do not have.”
“Then what can you give?”
“It’s pretty much anything you can find in the forest.”
“First of all, you don’t know what’s in the forest?”
“ah······.”
The female centaur spoke confidently, but after hearing my words, she put on an embarrassed expression.
“I only play at the beginning of the forest. It’s because our Hoya teacher didn’t allow it any more.”
“okay······.”
I kept trying to observe her, but even with my own observation, it was difficult to see through her.
Nyaang!
Hoya comes up on my shoulder as if it’s annoying. Then suddenly.
-You used the Observation skill.
– Observation (active) skill level has become 8.
Name: Helena.
Affiliation: Wind Clan.
Occupation: Maid.
You can no longer see detailed stats.
Even though the observation level reached 8, her information could not be seen properly. That would mean that she is a higher class than me. Like I still can’t figure out Hoya’s level.
“Helena, so what do you want from us?”
When he says his name, she is startled.
“How can I name my name…”
“It is the lord’s authority. You should be able to figure out the names of the beings who have entered our territory, right?”
“okay. As expected, the power of the lord is stronger than I thought.”
To be honest, I wonder if there’s even something called the power of the lord. And the reason why I couldn’t see it just now must be because Hoya did something.
As expected, the universal cheat key is Hoya.
“So what do you need?”
“It is food.”
food.
It is the most important thing for people to live, and no living thing can survive without food. And the centaurs also seemed to be short on food.
“There is any amount of food. But in order to make a deal worthy of that, you have to give me what I need, right?”
“Of course. Let’s just say hello today.”
“Okay, then come back when you’re ready.”
“yes.”
Helena and her escort knight, a centaur. The armed condition of the two was excellent. It looked like it was plated with mithril, but he was carrying armor and weapons made of mithril.
And it didn’t look as strange as I thought. half man half horse. Still, it looked pretty. That it didn’t look like a monster. Most of all, it was very interesting that she was able to communicate with other races, even if it was her authority as a priestess.
“Then I’ll come back in a week, lord.”
“Yes, then please.”
So she and her knight went back to the forest. And I looked at Hoya and asked.
“Hoya, do you know that clan?”
Nyaang?
Hoya tilts her head and makes a cute expression. However, Siwoo Choi is an easygoing guy, so I forgot about it again.
“Oooh, did our Hoya act cute? So, what does it matter if it’s a wind clan or a water clan?”
flinch.
Hoya flinched.
“what? Are there real water clans?”
Nyaang.
Hoya is acting different. I guess it’s real Fortunately, the wind clan doesn’t seem to be hostile. But what would it be like without Hoya?
Come to think of it, I think it might just have led to looting.
“Let’s go hunting, Hoya!”
Nyaang!
Hoya excitedly replies. I still feel that I am a weak lord. That it is not only humans that I have to deal with.
