The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Not wanting to share information, Seo Arin eventually opened her mouth.

After all, they had been through life-and-death situations together.

“Do you remember Hwang Yong-min?”

“Hwang Yong-min… the one who chased us in the forest during the second round?”

“Yes. I ran into him by chance today.”

“That bastard is still alive?”

Not seeing or hearing about him during the missions, An Sang-cheol was also unaware.

“He’s alive.”

“He’s a tenacious guy. I thought he’d been eliminated before the tenth round.”

“His nasty personality hasn’t changed. He was beating up a disabled person.”

“……”

An Sang-cheol was surprised not by the news but by Seo Arin’s eyes, which showed a cold glint despite her pretty face.

“I have to kill him.”

“……”

“If we leave him be, he’ll just cause more trouble. Hwang Yong-min needs to be eliminated.”

An Sang-cheol blinked, stunned by her chilling words.

‘Is this the same Seo Arin I know?’

In the second round, she questioned whether they really needed to kill, even when she was almost assaulted. She worried about the perpetrator’s life like a saint.

‘But now she’s changed so drastically?’

Though she had experienced many hardships, this was the first time he saw such a visible transformation.

‘Did something specific trigger this change?’

The betrayal by her fellow actors and the advice from the Black Scythe was known only to the Black Scythe and Seo Arin, so An Sang-cheol had every reason to be puzzled.

“You’re right. It would be better to kill him, as you said.”

“Isn’t it?”

“But the Black Scythe spared him. The Prophet also warned against pursuing him.”

“The Prophet?”

Seo Arin asked, puzzled.

“Why?”

“He said that meddling with Hwang Yong-min would bring great disaster.”

“Is that all?”

“Yes, he wouldn’t elaborate further.”

“……”

Seo Arin didn’t know that.

‘Why would the Prophet protect Hwang Yong-min?’

It was baffling, but there was nothing she could do.

‘If the Prophet said so, there must be a reason. I’ll have to let it go.’

Seo Arin decided to abandon her thoughts of revenge.

“I guess we have no choice. Let’s hope he won’t cause any more trouble.”

“Don’t worry. He might have survived this long, but he’ll be dead soon enough.”

“I’m more worried about him seeking revenge on the Black Scythe.”

‘Is that so?’

An Sang-cheol noticed her worry.

It was clear she had some feelings for the Black Scythe.

Though a hint of jealousy stirred within him, An Sang-cheol smiled nonchalantly.

“Did you know? The most unnecessary worry in the world is worrying about the Black Scythe.”

“Bodyguard-nim. Can’t I worry if I want to? The Black Scythe is also human. He can be in danger anytime.”

“……”

He didn’t expect her to take his joke so seriously.

An Sang-cheol was momentarily at a loss for words.

Just then, Seo Arin looked up at the air, tilting her head.

It seemed like she was checking a message.

“What’s wrong, Arin-ssi?”

“I searched for Hwang Yong-min to track him, but something’s strange.”

“What’s strange?”

“It says he doesn’t exist.”

“What?”

Tracking, which can be used in reality if one knows the face and name, should work if the conditions are met.

“Are you sure you saw Hwang Yong-min?”

“Of course.”

“You’re not mistaken?”

“Do I look like I have a bad memory? It was definitely Hwang Yong-min.”

“Then could it be a false name?”

“If it were a false name, it would say the face and name don’t match. But it says he doesn’t exist at all…”

“Hm, that’s odd.”

An Sang-cheol found it strange too.

“Wait a moment. I’ll try with another name.”

Seo Arin, thinking it might be an error, searched for Hong Sun-ah.

And she realized.

[The person does not exist.]

“Ah.”

The message wasn’t lying.

“What’s wrong, Arin-ssi?”

“I searched for the name of a dead person, and it says they don’t exist.”

“Really? Then that means Hwang Yong-min is already dead.”

“Oh…? Yes, it does.”

“Then who did you see? A ghost?”

“……”

Seo Arin couldn’t respond, feeling a chill down her spine.

‘What did I see?’

The thought of it being a ghost gave her goosebumps.

“I’ll search for someone else. Just to make sure.”

Though it seemed implausible for the system to be broken, she needed to try something to avoid believing she had seen a ghost.

‘Who should I search for? Ah, I’ll try the Prophet.’

Seo Arin visualized Ryu Min’s face and called his name.

[Face and name match. Tracking the target’s location.]

[The target ‘Ryu Min’ is 125 meters away.]

[Follow the arrow in front of you to track the target.]

“I tried searching for the Prophet, and it works. He’s pretty close by.”

“Oh, really?”

“His distance is decreasing, so he must be heading home.”

“Should we ask the Prophet about Hwang Yong-min’s status?”

“Do you think he knows?”

“Since he warned us not to touch Hwang Yong-min, he might know if he’s alive.”

“Alright.”

The two went outside and took the stairs to the lower floor.

Waiting in front of Ryu Min’s house, they would soon meet him.

Ding—

As the elevator door opened, they found Ryu Min as expected.

“Hello, Mr. Ryu Min.”

“Hm? Seo Actress? An Manager?”

They also saw his younger brother, Ryu Won.

But there was an unfamiliar woman standing between them.

Seo Arin squinted at Yamti.

‘She looks familiar… Where have I seen her?’

Seo Arin thought deeply and soon remembered.

“You… you’re…”

She was the woman said to be a real-life acquaintance of the Black Scythe.
