Regressor Instruction Manual

Chapter 472: Driving a Wedge (3)

Kim Hyunsung.

The Blue Guild Master. His class was unknown. It was highly likely to be a class closely related to Swordsman. He possessed a legendary-grade or higher armor, and his class was also estimated to be legendary-grade.

It was judged that his agility stat had exceeded at least 90, and he had a high magic power level that was very much unlikely for melee classes.

There wasn’t much information available about him, so it was difficult to understand his personality.

It was known that he spent most of his time training and working and had little leisure time. He was a typical schoolboy type, characterized by being away from alcohol and women.

Lee Kiyoung.

Blue Vice Guild Master, Hero of Laios, Honorary Cardinal of the State. The one who a dragon had chosen.

Including the Guild Master Kim Hyunsung of the Blue, he attacked the tutorial dungeon with the wizard Jung Hayan and the tank Park Deokgu.

He was presumed to be at least a legendary-grade alchemist, but his exact class name was unknown. His physical abilities were weak, but it was estimated that he possessed at least 95 divine power.

He was an avid believer of Benignore, and he loved meeting people and talking.

Regardless of the State’s people and adventurers, he didn’t stop volunteering in and a sacrificial personality. It was such a peculiarity that he liked to hang out with people. When I recalled the report I had read before, I started to smile.

‘Gosh… I don’t know how these people could rise here.’

One was a dweeb who could only do training and work, and the other was a priest with a strong spirit of sacrifice.

I wondered how those people survived in our field and grew up to that point.

The duo that had the power to dominate the entire continent was rather disappointing and ordinary. Of course, in a world where force was important, Kim Hyunsung’s force would have helped raise their reputation.

But was our world such a place where only force worked?

I didn’t know about the State’s situation in detail, but I thought that all the places would be the same wherever people lived.

It was natural to wonder why they were able to grow to the point of being called one of Lindel’s three great guilds. In fact, the intelligence department focused on that part and achieved satisfactory results in its own way.

Of course, when I heard the reason, I experienced a bit of a disappointment, but at least I was a little elated.

‘The Red Mercenary and the Black Swan.’

Kim Hyunsung was closely related to Black Swan’s Guild Master Park Yeon-joo, and Lee Kiyoung was closely related to Mercenary Queen Cha Hee-ra.

There was still little information about the relationship between Kim Hyunsung and Park Yeon-joo. On the other hand, in Lee Kiyoung’s case, I received information that he had a deep relationship with the Mercenary Queen since they had been on Earth.

After the Blue Guild started to become active in Lindel in earnest, I understood the situation in which the Black Swan and Red Mercenary, who kept each other in check, suddenly began to be in a united front.

‘It’s not even funny. Really.’

That was absurd and perplexing. But that’s why I thought there was room to penetrate there.

Lindel’s centerpiece was the Blue duo.

If the two were torn apart, it was clear that Blue wouldn’t be able to protect even half of its strength. The possibility of returning the relationship between the Black Swan and the Red Mercenary to what it was before was also high.

Lindel’s three great guilds, which had the strongest influence on the continent, would be destroyed.

Other countries, cities, and guilds would be able to cheer at such news.

‘Until when do I have to see all those guilds take everything for themselves?’

Anyone in power who had a group had no choice but to have such thoughts.

‘I’m a little sorry, but what can I do? Only when you guys are torn, we’ll have a hole to breathe into…’

Although laughter almost burst out for no reason, I had to hold it back for the moment.

It was time to work, after all.

“As expected, the Blue Guild is amazing.”

“It’s not, Kylie Yale.”

“No, it is. Even though only five days have passed, it’s already reached this size… Did you bring all the things from Lindel?”

“Yes. I wanted to simplify it as much as possible, but Kiyoung doesn’t like the guild employees suffering…”

‘Sure, he doesn’t.’

“All of them were used in Crack Land. It’s all mass-produced as a prefab so that it can be made with simple magic. You’ll have to use a simple tent right now, but maybe sooner or later, we’ll be paying these buildings to Kylie Yale and other guilds.”

“What? Is that true?”

“Yes.”

“T-Then… about the cost…”

“You don’t have to worry about the cost. The Blue Guild has already agreed to bear all of it.”

“Then… can we do that?”

“Right now, seeing results in the Continental Joint Training is our top priority. Our guild is the same, but I hope that others don’t care about anything other than training. Just getting a good night’s sleep and eating good food will improve your efficiency in many areas.”

‘They sure have a lot of money.’

I wasn’t sure how many assets they had.

‘They are giving all of it for free?’

I spoke without my knowledge.

It was incredibly large and luxurious to say that it was built easily. It felt like it was bigger than the Manhattan Guild house in the kingdom.

No, it would actually be bigger, and that was not all.

It was designed to be mass-produced in a prefabricated manner, but the wall’s material seemed far from cheap.

‘Is it magic? Or some kind of alchemy?’

It didn’t matter what it was. The important thing was that it would soon fall into our hands.

‘How much of a pushover are they?’

They were too nice.

Lee Kiyoung built a dorm because he didn’t want to trouble the useless guild employees, and Kim Hyunsung would pay all of those for smooth training…

In fact, I was suspicious of them being nothing but idiots.

‘That’s why you’re being scammed like this.’

Although the results hadn’t yet come out… what would happen was obvious.

The plan was already in progress, after all. The information on Kim Hyunsung was disappointingly little.

However, the information about Lee Kiyoung wasn’t.

I was able to figure out the approximate tendency, and in fact, he was slowly being influenced.

‘Who knew it would be so easy?’

The cleaner people were, the more easily they fell, so Lee Kiyoung was a suitable object to corrupt. I didn’t know if evangelism was his purpose, but his innate personality enjoyed getting along with others.

In fact, he seemed to have a tendency to be swayed by others’ words.

Benignore’s doctrines and other people around him couldn’t be easily rejected as long as they didn’t harm them. It meant that the State lawmakers liked him for a reason.

‘The Honorary Cardinal is easy to use.’

Perhaps this was why he was called as the one in charge of events.

It was surprising that a person who was so easy to swing still maintained their purity.

‘Integrity and innocence?’

Integrity, innocence, my ass…

‘Where is there such a person in the world?’

Whether it was alcohol, women, or drugs, he just hasn’t been exposed to such things properly.

I felt confident that I could provide a fun time that couldn’t be compared to drinking tea with the State’s nobles, and the idea fitted ridiculously well.

On the first and second days, I was somewhat passive. However, after that, he decided to hang out with the trash even if I didn’t call him.

If the State’s people saw the place where the Honorary Cardinal was, it would be clear that they wouldn’t be able to believe it.

The way he got drunk, made physical contact with a woman, and laughed awkwardly at all kinds of dirty sounds would be contrary to his image. Only five days passed, but the pure white drawing paper named Lee Kiyoung was gradually turning black.

‘If I’m lucky, I could turn him completely into a puppet…’

The plan was easy to execute. There was also the method of putting drugs in his drink and treat him as a woman.

Of course, that would be after the two had been completely torn, but that wouldn’t take long.

Kim Hyunsung would continue to hear bad stories about Lee Kiyoung, and he would be disappointed about his friend.

Having talked and looked around with him, we arrived at the restaurant.

There was no choice but to quietly sigh at a distinctly different appearance from the restaurant used by ordinary soldiers. I could see some other people eating.

There was a woman with white skin and a man with a large body.

Someone with his hair up was seen, and someone who still looked like a student.

It’s obvious as to who those people were.

‘The Blue elite.’

They were Jung Hayan, Park Deokgu, and the other Blue party members.

They were showing monstrous results every time in the mock battle.

It seemed they had just finished eating and I could see them quietly greeting him. I flinched for a moment, but I thought it didn’t matter. I didn’t come to do something bad.

“You can sit. The meal should be ready soon.”

“Thank you for your consideration, Blue Guild Master.”

“No. Thank you, Kylie Yale. I wanted to thank you separately since it seems like you are helping me with the training every time…”

“No. It’s nothing compared to what Lindel’s three guilds do. The things our guild is doing are very trivial…”

“We’re just being serious about training…”

“It is natural. I know it’s hard to host the training… you have to make do with what you get. The atmosphere is a bit chaotic, but everyone will get used to it soon.”

“I hope so, but…”

“I’m helping you like this, right?”

“I am sincerely grateful for the Manhattan Guild. Oh, and please eat, Kylie.”

“Are you always eating around this time?”

“Actually, I eat a little later. I finish work late. Recently, I have been barely eating. If Kylie hadn’t come, I would have only had a simple meal.”

“You must always eat… you’re not working alone… there is also the Honorary Cardinal.”

“Kiyoung is…”

“Come to think of it. I can’t see him. Did he fall asleep early?”

“No. Maybe he’s with other people right now. Recently, socializing with other local people has become more frequent…”

“Ah… so the rumors were true.”

“Rumors?”

“Have you never heard of it?”

“I’m not sure what you’re talking about…”

‘Blocking the voice leaking with magic power. I can quietly talk about it.’

“I don’t know if I can say this, but… Recently, the Honorary Cardinal seems to be hanging out with people of poor quality.”

“What?”

The rumor was that the more one lied about it, the better it was.

“Not only good people like the Blue Guild Master are participating in this joint training. They are from our city… I don’t know if you’ve heard of Gerhan.”

“I think… I have.”

“Actually, he is a troublemaker in our area as well. His skills are good, but… his personality is a bit… Recently, Lee Kiyoung seems to be hanging out with them. He doesn’t even participate properly in training… This is a really unfounded rumor, but there are even rumors of bringing women to the dorm… Of course, I don’t think Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung will do that, but… hasn’t he come into the guild dorm recently?”

“…”

At this point, Kim Hyunsung’s faces was slowly getting darker.

It was then that my body trembled momentarily.

‘Huh?’

In my ears, I began to hear an unknown voice.

It was not the voice of Kim Hyunsung in front of me. The voice that seemed to be ringing in my brain was too creepy.

-That… r-r-rumor… who… told you about that?
