Chapter 291 - 695

[Chapter 177]

[The Period of Reconstruction (7)]

If one could give an alias to a person named Kim Yuha.

Eunha would not hesitate to give her the alias .

That's how much Kim Yuha was a reporter who persistently followed Noh Eunha to cover him before the regression.

But I didn't know I would go to the same elementary school as such a person.

However, even after the regression, Eunha often had to be chased by Kim Yuha.

It was because, unlike his previous life, Eunha entered Doan Elementary School instead of an elementary school in Incheon.

It was truly a fateful connection.

Thanks to that, I received a lot of help from Yuha in elementary school until I met Isipo.

Of course, after Eunha entered the Academy and had Isipo under him.

The name Kim Yuha disappeared to the back of his memory.

That's why Eunha didn't readily remember his name when he heard it.

Anyway, Eunha met Kim Yuha for the first time in a long while after graduating elementary school.

"Eunha hyung, isn't this too much? How can there be no contact since you entered the Academy? You said you would contact me!"

"Sorry, I must have forgotten."

"Wow, that's really too much."

"You could have contacted me first."

"Eunha hyung didn't give me your phone number. You said it was hard to give your number because you didn't have a smartphone yet. So I gave you my number..."

"Ah, come to think of it, I didn't have a smartphone then. Well, there's no use talking about that now. It's good that we met again now."

"Ah, so this is Noh Eunha's personality. I just talked to Minji noona in the lobby on the first floor and she said that."

"That Kim Minji really..."

Pandora Clan Headquarters, Eunha's office.

Eunha greeted Kim Yuha with Han Seohyun and Jeong Hayang.

Kim Yuha expressed her resentment as soon as she entered the office.

Even Jeong Hayang seemed to think this wasn't right and quietly glared at Eunha.

"Let's stop the small talk here."

""""..."

Then Han Seohyun cut off the conversation.

She said after drinking a sip of coffee that Shakira had brought up to Eunha's office.

"You didn't use the title of New Country Daily trainee reporter just to make small talk, right? Yes, you want to interview our Clan Lord?"

"Yes! I came because I want to interview Pandora Clan Lord Noh Eunha player, recently called ! If you have time, could you allow an interview?"

Kim Yuha quickly changed her attitude.

She straightened her back and pleaded to the three with shining eyes.

To this, Han Seohyun made a "hmm" sound.

"It's amazing that a high school student became a trainee reporter for New Country Daily, one of the top 10 comprehensive daily newspapers."

"Actually, I was planning to go to university and balance studies with reporter work. But after seeing Eunha hyung fight Yekyung this time, I just couldn't contain my excitement. So I begged my father a bit and entered as a trainee! There's no law saying a high school student can't become a reporter, right?"

"I'm curious what your father does to create a position at a major media company for a high school student who hasn't even broadened her views yet. Of course, in this world, there's no law saying a high school student can't become a reporter. But I doubt whether you have broad views and skills."

"My father is the vice president of New Country Daily. He's also currently the chief editor."

"The chief editor of New Country Daily..."

""..."

Kim Yuha confessing she got in through connections.

Seohyun treating it as nothing unusual.

Eunha and Jeong Hayang were dumbfounded by the two's conversation.

Eunha quietly asked Jeong Hayang.

"Do people living in the political and business world usually treat that as nothing?"

"Maybe it's because it's Seohyun unni?"

"I guess..."

Whisper whisper.

The two exchanged words.

Meanwhile, Han Seohyun and Kim Yuha were having a business conversation.

"Well, since you say you're close with Eunha, I guess I can speak casually too?"

"Of course! I heard you're marrying Eunha hyung, so I'll call you sister-in-law! Hayang sister-in-law too!"

"Sister-in-law, that's a nice expression. Well, anyway, I understand your intention to widely publicize 's fame by interviewing Eunha and completely establish it as an alias."

"Yes, sister-in-law is right! People are using various aliases like , and so on, but I want to firmly establish the alias !"

"It's about time to get tired of the alias . Above all, because of the alias , Eunha is still perceived as an Academy student. So I agree with changing the alias anew. But I have one question..."

"Yes, please tell me!"

"Do you think you have the credibility and validity to widely publicize Eunha, who is revered as a hero, with your age as a high school student and position as a trainee reporter?"

"Yes, you don't have to worry about that. My father said if I really manage to get an interview with Eunha hyung, he'll lend his name. The article will be published on the front page of New Country Daily under my father, Chief Editor Kim Gongjung's name. Unfortunately... I'll have to be satisfied with just participating in writing the article for now."

"Hmm, that's fine then. I was thinking of letting someone write an exclusive article about Eunha, excluding the top 10 comprehensive daily newspapers that have shown a critical stance towards Pandora Clan, like Dangun Daily or KK Group's Geonkuk Daily. If it's New Country Daily... it has a relatively neutral image so it's not bad."

Han Seohyun nodded.

She had been planning to officially promote Pandora Clan while working anyway.

She was also thinking of making Eunha, who dislikes interviews, do an interview.

"Eunha probably can't refuse an interview since he owes you a debt."

"I won't refuse since I received help from Yuha, but let me ask one thing. What exactly is the alias ? It's the first time I'm hearing it."

Eunha didn't particularly object either.

But questions welled up.

The alias that had been mentioned occasionally in the conversation since earlier.

Does it mean crimson wings? I guess I've been called that without knowing while defeating Yekyung...

Since when was I called that?

Looking at Han Seohyun and Jeong Hayang, they seemed to know.

Rather, the two sent gazes to Eunha asking why he didn't know that.

How am I supposed to know?

I went to Uijeongbu not long after defeating Yekyung, and I haven't shown my face to ordinary people.

Eunha protested with a silent gaze.

Only then did Kim Yuha explain.

"When Eunha hyung died once and revived to face Yekyung, three pairs of wings sprouted from your back, right? At that time, the wings burned crimson, so you came to be called by that alias."

"I didn't die though..."

"That's how it's known to people. There was no particular reason to deny it so we left it as is. It also raises your prestige more."

"That's true, but... Anyway, you're going to establish that as the alias?"

"Yes! Please let me do that! I really want to gain the honor of establishing Eunha hyung's alias!"

"Honor is quite an exaggerated expression."

"That's because Eunha hyung is a god to me! I've already joined the Eunha Religion and I'm just waiting to start activities..."

"Eunha Religion? What's that now?"

"Let's stop the conversation here."

Kim Yuha was babbling something.

Eunha tilted his head.

Then Han Seohyun mediated the conversation.

"Eunha, you don't seem to have any objections either, so the story of publishing an Eunha interview in New Country Daily is good. But since it's going to be a major article on the front page anyway, can you include other content besides the Eunha interview?"

"Other content?"

"It's not just Eunha, but all Pandora Clan members whose aliases aren't established now. I've been thinking a lot about what aliases would be good, but it would be better to establish them all at once with this opportunity."

"If, if that's the case, we could fill the entire front page with Pandora Clan!"

"I don't want that much. We might face backlash if we do that. I just want to naturally promote Eunha and the clan members' aliases."

"I'll call my father right away!"

Making a clattering sound.

Kim Yuha rummaged through her pockets in great excitement.

Han Seohyun seemed lost in thought.

Eunha, who had entrusted administrative work to her, blankly watched the scene.

"Well, it is better to promote after building some recognition rather than conspiring with a media outlet to blatantly promote aliases."

"Papa! Bibi! Bipu!"

"Why do you need an alias? Just be a good Buldak."

"Pupu."

Eunha's interview ended.

Also, Han Seohyun decided the clan members' aliases reflecting their preferences as much as possible.

Then Kim Yuha suddenly said she wanted to look around the clan headquarters.

"Looking around the clan headquarters is an excuse, I actually want to interview clan members I meet while looking around!"

"Okay, do as you please."

Jeong Hayang went back to work and.

Eunha decided to guide her.

Kim Yuha took photos of every floor after looking around.

"Oh, there are a lot of photos on the 1st basement floor? There are paintings too... Ah, I know that painting. I saw the video of Eunha hyung fighting too."

"...A friend made it and hung it up. I was against it, but they said to hang it for clan promotion."

"It would be perfect if there was a painting of you being reborn as next to that!"

"Not necessary."

1st basement floor PR hall.

Clan promotional materials were arranged near the entrance.

Han Seohyun made them.

Eunha picked up a promotional brochure while Kim Yuha looked around Cha Eunwoo's photos.

Pandora Clan is a clan created by Academy students to diverge from existing clans...

The promotional material was still thin.

At best, it was just profiles of himself and the sub-lords.

Well, there's not much material here yet either.

Eunha looked around.

There were only profiles of himself and clan members who had made achievements yet.

The empty spaces were just filled with photos.

But in the future, this space will have no blank spaces left.

I look forward to that time.

At that moment─.

"─Player Cha Eunwoo! It's an honor to meet you!"

"Huh?"

Kim Yuha found Cha Eunwoo.

When Eunha went in the direction of the sound, Cha Eunwoo was inside the PR hall.

"Ah, Eunha."

"What were you doing here?"

"I was thinking about what photos to fill this space with. Since we filled that side with reconstruction work photos, should we fill this space with dungeon conquest photos... What do you think?"

"Not bad. Discuss it with Seohyun and do as you like."

Cha Eunwoo, who had blinked her eyes seeing Kim Yuha, relaxed seeing Eunha.

"But this person is... That reporter?"

"Yes! Hello! I'm Kim Yuha who will be promoting Player Cha Eunwoo!"

"Hmm, you look quite young... I look forward to working with you."

Eunwoo narrowed her eyes.

While she conversed with Kim Yuha, she asked Eunha with her gaze.

Eunha shrugged and.

Cha Eunwoo decided not to mind.

"Then Player Cha Eunwoo. People have recently come to call Player Cha Eunwoo after seeing you create magic to detoxify the 4th tier Great Toad Chief's poison and go around doing relief activities treating people. How do you feel about that alias?"

" is too much for me."

"Ah, there's another player who uses the alias , and

" is too much for me."

""..."

.

She seemed to dislike it quite a bit.

Cha Eunwoo implicitly warned with a kind face.

The interview started like that.

"I just did the work given to me. How could I not save people who need to be saved? Still, being called , I'll live up to the name from now on. Please cheer for me!"

She didn't even prepare properly.

Cha Eunwoo very naturally struck poses that would look good in photos, or answered questions without any hesitation.

Years of training at the Academy made her that way.

However─.

─By the way, .

...It's a nickname that suits Eunwoo.

Cha Eunwoo might not want to admit it.

But it was a very fitting alias.

From Kim Yuha's story, it seems there's also an alias calling her among the current aliases referring to her.

Unfortunately, Cha Eunwoo didn't seem to like either one, but.

However, the more intuitive an alias is, the better.

An alias was a player's name recognition.

If it was simple and intuitive, people could quickly recall the player's name along with the alias.

I know it's embarrassing, but just don't mind it like me.

Eunha chuckled watching the interview from the side.

Of course, Cha Eunwoo didn't understand Eunha's feelings at all.

"─Yes, thank you very much for agreeing to the interview. By the way, I heard also joined Pandora Clan recently... Could I know where she is?"

"Ah, you mean Iriya unni? Riya unni should be on the floor right below. She's working there with clan members."

"Yes, thank you! Eunha hyung, let's go!"

Kim Yuha had finished the interview by now.

Kim Yuha, who had been making a fuss saying it was an honor to shake hands with Cha Eunwoo, went down to the lower floor.

Eunha followed behind her.

"Wow... What are they doing here?"

"They're... making a cathedral, they said."

"A cathedral?"

"Yeah."

2nd basement floor.

Until now, there had been no conclusion on how to use this floor.

But recently, Iriya asked to use this place as a cathedral where mass could be held.

It was really absurd that she left Mana Religion and came here to create a new religion.

Of course, Eunha was against it.

Because Eunha didn't believe in god.

Then Iriya saw through that and said:

'I don't mean to create a religion for the Mana God. Because of this calamity, indelible wounds have been created in people's hearts. So I want to create a religion to soothe them, to create a place for them to rely on.'

Religion doesn't exist simply to believe in god.

It also has the function of comforting people who have no one to rely on mentally or want to find peace of mind.

Eunha acknowledged that too.

However, is a religion truly without god possible?

Even to that, Iriya answered.

'God is in our hearts. And the religion I want to create doesn't worship and revere god, but worships and reveres humans.'

'Humans? What humans?'

'The people we can see around us, respecting all of them. And worshipping and revering those who have finally become saints worthy of being called gods through individual introspection.'

At that time, Eunha couldn't fully understand what Iriya was saying. Her blueprint was so vast and.

From the start, Eunha didn't show much interest in Iriya's blueprint.

Rather, what Eunha was interested in was that Iriya was still loved by many believers even though she had left Mana Religion.

'Calamities will continue to occur in the future, shaking public sentiment. So the role of religion is needed to soothe public sentiment.'

The head of Mana Religion has died, they say.

Nevertheless, Mana Religion was still thriving, continuing to increase its influence.

Therefore, Eunha thought it would be good to create a religion that opposes Mana Religion and helps the Fairy Government.

Meanwhile, the sub-lords including Seohyun focused on a different aspect.

'If people necessarily come to Pandora Clan headquarters to pray, it will be an opportunity to publicize Pandora Clan's name that much.'

'I think it won't be bad either. In the long run, they'll feel familiar with Pandora Clan, and when they occasionally have requests, they'll try to entrust them to us rather than other clans.'

'They might even make requests on their way to pray. I don't think it's bad either. I agree.'

The function of promoting the clan.

Furthermore, the function of making people who join the religion prefer Pandora Clan.

Mok Minho, Noh Euna, Jeong Hayang.

The three sub-lords strongly agreed too.

That's how Iriya came to create a religion in the clan headquarters.

Of course, Eunha called Iriya and put shackles on her before giving approval.

'It would be troublesome if you set up a religion and ran away, and we have to think about the costs of creating a religion trusting just you alone. You know what I mean, right?'

'Of course! I'm fine working without pay. I don't need anything if I can be by the Lord's side!'

'I don't intend to make you work without pay. We might get scolded by the Mana Management Organization for that... Here, it's a contract.'

'Where should I sign?'

'Read it and then sign.'

'Where should I sign?'

'At least pretend to read it.'

'Where should I sign?'

'Sigh, I'll just roughly explain it to you. I see now that she wasn't normal either... If she was normal, she wouldn't have joined Mana Religion in the first place, damn it.'

Three shackles were put on her.

One, Pandora Clan will bear the costs incurred until Iriya transfers to the Academy and becomes an official player.

In return, Iriya must join Pandora Clan. After joining, she will maintain a 4:6 settlement ratio until the investment costs are recovered.

One, after recovering the investment costs, her settlement ratio will be fixed at 6:4. The settlement ratio may be adjusted later according to performance.

At this time, performance bonuses will be paid separately.

One, Iriya cannot unilaterally terminate the contract with Pandora Clan.

Therefore, she cannot leave the clan for 10 years from the time of signing the contract.

Also, if the contract period expires and she doesn't say anything in advance, the contract will be automatically extended for 3 years regardless of her will. And Pandora Clan has no obligation to notify her that the contract period has expired.

'Yes! I understand! I'll sign!'

'...Did you really listen?'

'In the end, doesn't it mean you'll take care of me for life? I'm just happy as long as I have the Lord.'

'Think as you like.'

It was truly an unequal treaty.

Nevertheless, Iriya signed it right away and joined Pandora Clan.

'Try saying "Mana God bastard".'

'Mana God bastard!'

Iriya was a dog.

When Eunha first saw her, she seemed to show wise dignity, but she had already become a dog.

She would nod her head without any doubt and obediently follow whatever Eunha said.

Anyway, that's how a cathedral was being built on the 2nd basement floor.

"Oh my, darling. What brings you here?"

"Oh? It's Eunha Eunha!"

Looking around, clan members were helping with the work too.

Bong Gurae effortlessly carrying a long bench alone.

Ariel following behind, struggling to carry three boxes.

The two approached Eunha.

Ariel's face wasn't even properly visible behind the boxes due to her short stature.

"Wow... It's and ."

"Were you working here? Ariel, you ran away from the records room and came here?"

"Hehe! I don't know difficult things! I like using my body like this!"

Regardless of Kim Yuha's muttering.

Eunha spoke to the two.

Ariel showed off her steps while carrying three boxes.

Eunha burst into laughter.

It was then.

Iriya also discovered Eunha and quickly ran over.

"Lord! What brings you here?"

"I'm showing my elementary school junior around the clan headquarters. Is the work going well?"

"Yes! People who heard the news that I'm creating a new religion have come to help with the work! It will be completed soon!"

"That's fortunate then."

Eunha looked around.

Many workers were working.

They bowed politely upon receiving Eunha's gaze.

Is it because of Iriya?

Or because I'm the Clan Lord.

Everyone treats me respectfully.

Eunha tilted his head inwardly.

He decided not to mind too much.

Soon he asked her.

"By the way, why do you keep calling me Lord when I told you to call me Clan Lord?"

"Because you are the Lord!"

An incomprehensible answer.

Nevertheless, Iriya just smiled brightly as if something was good.

Eunha sighed.

"And have you decided on the religion's name? When it's decided, let Euna noona or Seohyun know."

"Yes, of course. You'll surely be surprised when you hear it too, Lord."

"Just don't do anything like Mana God."

"Should I curse 'bastard' again?"

"Yeah, as long as it's not a group fanatically worshipping strange gods like Mana God."

"Don't worry too much."

Eunha wasn't interested in religion.

So he planned to let her and the sub-lords and administrative officer do as they pleased.

Therefore─.

"─Hello! ! Excuse me, but could I interview you?"

Later when he sees the newspaper.

Eunha comes to greatly regret.

New Country Daily

June 14, Year 15 of Seonryeok

[Chief Editor Kim Gongjung's Column]

"Heroes aren't just me. We are all heroes who overcame this calamity."

Noh Eunha (19)

The achievements of Player Noh Eunha, a 031st batch graduate of the Player Academy, are simply amazing.

He is counted as the top contributor who blocked the monster army's invasion of Seoul just 2 months after graduating.

3rd tier overrank monster Yekyung.

3rd tier monster Caesar Hopper.

3rd tier monster Freak Sphinx.

Player Noh Eunha contributed to taking down 3rd tier monsters in this calamity.

Among them, he even directly subjugated Yekyung and Freak Sphinx.

There's a reason why the Fairy Government opened the Eulji grade treasure vault, which had never been opened since the government was established.

However, Player Noh Eunha's merits aren't just that.

Player Noh Eunha infiltrated Uijeongbu to replace Gangbuk's cocoon, and retrieved the cocoon that had been abandoned during the Uijeongbu recapture battle.

...(omitted)...

For such reasons, the public is calling Player Noh Eunha .

The scene Player Noh Eunha showed when battling Yekyung that day is still vivid in memory.

We may be living in an era where we can see the birth of a new myth like and who are called living myths.

Meanwhile, Player Noh Eunha...

...(omitted)...

It's not just Player Noh Eunha who played an active role in the Seoul invasion.

Unlike other clans, all players who participated in combat from Pandora Clan were recognized for Chungmu grade merits.

Ryu Yeonhwa even received recognition for Eulji grade merits along with Player Noh Eunha.

And they have become commonly seen in our daily lives as they engage in reconstruction work.

...(omitted)...

"I just did what I could do. At that time, I only thought about saving people."

Kim Minji

One of Player Kim Minji's daily routines is helping with Yongsan-gu's reconstruction work. She can control rats, so she sends rats to explore areas where the ground might collapse, she says.

When there was a temporary food shortage in Gangbuk due to Caesar Hopper, she was also in charge of supplying goods.

At that time, she created dishes that could be cooked with the remaining food, making residents shed tears...

...(omitted)...

"I want to create a just world. That's my dream."

Choi Eunhyuk

Meanwhile, Player Choi Eunhyuk, who contributed to the operation to take down the 3rd tier Freak Sphinx, cannot be left out.

Player Choi Eunhyuk, who received teachings from the living legend at the high school Academy, expressed his wish to carry on his master's will.

The industry is calling him , saying a new star has appeared.

...(omitted)...

Meanwhile, a religion is being created in the basement of Pandora Clan headquarters.

It could be said that Saint Iriya, who was called in Mana Religion, left Mana Religion and threw her hat into the ring with Pandora Clan.

She expressed her intention to create a religion to provide hope to people who have nowhere to rely on.

However, it differs from Mana Religion. While Mana Religion worships the Mana God, the newly created religion respects humans, not god.

"The Lord told me there is no god. If you consider those words, you can understand it means we can all become gods through enlightenment at any time."

People possess mana.

In other words, the existence called god is in our hearts.

So in the process of self-reflection, people can become gods.

That's what Saint Iriya said.

"Humans are great. The Lord said his strength comes not from god's arrangement, but solely from his own will. He said if you believe, you become strong. That's how vast the potential humans have. Therefore, I believe not in god, but only in the Lord and human potential."

Saint Iriya revealed to this newspaper that Eunha Religion will hold its first mass next month on July 7th.

...(omitted)...

Thus, we look forward to the future activities of Pandora Clan members.

Trials will make us stronger and create new heroes.

In the case of Lee Iriya, although she is not a player, we include her because her merits cannot be ignored.
