It’s an Academic Fact That Rankers Are Model Students – Chapter 101

Chapter 101: My Body Became Strange After Only Playing Games (1)

World’s Best headquarters, guild master’s office.

Whiiiing.

A magic tool was rotating in that place.

Although it was called a magic tool, it was something that shouldn’t exist in this world, which had a fantasy background.

[Kyung-joon Air Conditioner]

▶Various magic materials and the mysterious technology of this world …… (omitted)…… Fairy-Elven Alliance’s unique magic, scroll magic independently…… (omitted)…….

▶Item Grade: Unique

” ……Really. Just how far does he intend to amaze me?”

TheWorld’sGreatestMerchant muttered to himself in his office, where he was the only one left.

About 100 days had passed since Kyung-joon made the Unique bread.

He thought that he must have done something great again, but he didn’t expect it to be an air conditioner.

Of course, there was no air conditioner in the World.

If it was hot in summer, you could use magic to lower the temperature, but who in the world would hire an expensive wizard to keep it cool all day long?

Unless you were a nobleman, you couldn’t even dream of such a thing, and there were no wizards who would come forward to do it in the first place.

It wasn’t like they became wizards to make air conditioners.

And.

” Fairy-Elven Alliance technology……. “

The air conditioner’s status window stated that it was developed by independently developing the magic of the Fairy-Elven Alliance.

This made it virtually certain that Kyung-joon went to the Fairy-Elven Alliance.

The Fairy-Elven Alliance, a place that no player has ever been to.

Not only did he just go, but he even learned their unique magic.

” As expected, my eyes weren’t wrong. “

Kyung-joon said he would contact him again in a few days when the item was finished and returned to his original residence.

After receiving 10 billion liyan from him.

” This is a kind of investment for the World’s Best guild.”

And it was also a goodwill down payment given in the sense of choosing our World’s Best guild even after the 3-month contract was over.

Of course, it was a ridiculously insufficient amount compared to Kyung-joon’s worth.

He felt that way even more after seeing this air conditioner.

In fact, if it was on the condition that Kyung-joon would join World’s Best, he could have paid ten times the down payment.

Even if it meant emptying the guild’s funds.

That’s how highly TheWorld’sGreatestMerchant valued Kyung-joon.

Anyway.

Kyung-joon, who is still not known to the world and is quietly honing himself.

The fact that he rejected the CTO offer must have been because he was busy with this.

” Soon a typhoon may hit the World. “

The moment he reveals himself, he will become a typhoon.

A super-strong typhoon that will shake both players and NPCs in the World.

What is the wisest way to deal with such a typhoon?

” There’s no other way but to stick close to the eye of the typhoon. “

Unlike the chaotic outside, the eye of a typhoon is said to be very calm.

In other words, a windless zone.

Needless to say, the one moving that eye is Kyung-joon.

Therefore, I had to do my best to follow closely behind Kyung-joon.

If you don’t want to be blown away by an unprecedented gale and suffer.

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

10 billion liyan that suddenly appeared!

Kyung-joon withdrew only 1 billion liyan out of this and converted it into cash.

He left the remaining 9 billion liyan as it was because he had to use it for the future development and business of the territory.

(Seolha Entertainment)』

When he converted 1 billion liyan into cash, about 100 million won was deposited into his account.

Considering the original conversion rate of slightly less than 10 to 1, a higher amount should have been credited.

This is because a 0.7% fee was paid to Seolha Entertainment.

” This is really making money. “

What do banks and securities companies make money from?

Most of them made money from brokerage fees.

0.7% seems like a very low number when you look at it, but in fact, compared to stock transaction fees, it was almost 10 times higher.

The exact transaction fee for Seolha Securities for transactions worth hundreds of millions of won was 0.077364%.

In other words, in terms of ratio alone, Seolha Entertainment is generating more than 10 times the revenue of Seolha Securities.

Therefore, this is what people in the world often said.

『After Seolha Entertainment released The World, the world actually confirmed it. That Korea’s Seolha Group is the undisputed No. 1 company in the world.』

‘Come to think of it, Kim Chul-soo in our class wanted to work as a developer at Seolha Entertainment, so he clung to Yoo Seol-ha and was caught by the guards.’

Ironically, the granddaughter of such a large corporation was attending Kyung-joon’s Cheongshin High School.

And in the same class.

Perhaps the public speculated that it was some kind of image making and public education planned by the Seolha Group.

Most of the chaebols in the media were busy being cursed at because they couldn’t even properly answer the question of how much the subway fare was.

” Well, that’s that. “

100 million won in sudden money.

Kyung-joon began to think about how he could spend this money well, which Yoo Seol-ha’s company had deposited.

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

The first target Kyung-joon spread the word to was his family.

Originally, when the eldest son makes money, he takes care of his family first.

Of course, he didn’t tell anyone other than his family.

Whether it’s a relative, a friend, or anyone else.

In cases like this, it’s because the world we live in today is more likely to come back with envy and jealousy rather than congratulations.

No matter how much of a high school student you are who opens up your heart and looks for a One Piece, it wasn’t much different.

‘I didn’t have any close friends to begin with.’

Just talking for a while during break time and chatting on KakaoTalk.

This was Kyung-joon’s definition of a friend.

If he believed in anyone, it was his family, and in another sense, if he believed in anyone, it was TheWorld’sGreatestMerchant, with whom he had recently formed a business relationship.

” Wow! Bro, bro! It’s so high! “

” Wow! Oppa, oppa! It’s so high! “

” Well, it’s Shilla Hotel. And Woo-bin. Didn’t I tell you not to use bad words? I don’t know about So-bin, but what if Seung-hak copies you? “

Seung-hak, a 4-year-old baby who just entered kindergarten.

12-year-old twin brother and sister, Woo-bin and So-bin.

And even his mother and father.

Kyung-joon brought his whole family to the Shilla Hotel.

‘Hotel Shilla’, named after the pronunciation of Silla, an ancient Korean country.

It was the best hotel in Korea, run by the Seolha Group.

The reason why Kyung-joon brought his entire family to the Shilla Hotel was to eat the famous Korean beef ribs that are only available here.

『Shilla Ribs』

Usually friends jokingly say things like this.

『Later, when I hit the jackpot, or if I pass an exam or something, I’ll buy you ribs at the Shilla Hotel!』

Kyung-joon also decided to faithfully follow that rule, so tonight he came to eat beef ribs with his family.

Very expensive beef ribs that cost over 100,000 won per serving.

” Kyung-joon, aren’t we here at a very strict place……?”

” That’s right. Even though you’ve made some money. “

Kyung-joon’s family, who had never been to a place like this in their lives!

Naturally, his parents couldn’t help but be very worried.

Their eldest son, who was still in high school, had made some money and came to such an expensive place.

They wondered if he was overdoing it.

” It’s okay. I’ll make sure you can eat this every morning from now on. So-bin, Woo-bin. Let’s go. Seung-hak too. “

” Okay! “

” Ribs! Ribs! Ribs! “

Kyung-joon gave his parents behind him an effective smile and went inside the building first with the twins and sleeping Seung-hak.

” Honey, will it be okay? “

” ……Let’s go in for now. “

Under the force of their son, who wouldn’t take no for an answer, Kyung-joon’s parents followed him.

Entering Shilla Ribs at Shilla Hotel.

Kyung-joon said very naturally to the staff at the counter.

” 6 people, please. One of them is a baby, is that okay? “

” Yes, of course. I’ll prepare a baby chair and show you to a table for 6 right away. “

Kyung-joon’s family was guided to a large table seat on the first floor.

Even if 6 people sat down, 2-3 more people could sit.

As soon as Kyung-joon opened the menu and asked what they wanted to eat, his parents started talking about what they wanted to say.

” ……Kyung-joon, it’s better not to overdo it. “

” That’s right. We’re so happy and satisfied that Kyung-joon is taking care of us like this. “

His parents were still restless.

Kyung-joon knew very well how to deal with this situation.

” 6 servings of ribs, please. The best one. “

” Yes. 6 servings of Korean beef raw ribs. “

” K, Kyung-joon……! “

” Cough…… “

His parents, who were very embarrassed by their son, who acted first and saw!

The bill left by the waiter already showed an amount exceeding 600,000 won.

” Woo-bin and So-bin always said ribs, ribs. You should eat well while you’re still growing. “

Kyung-joon said so and stroked Woo-bin and So-bin’s hair a little roughly.

Woo-bin countered by ramming his head into his stomach and rubbing it.

So-bin complained that her hair was messed up.

But neither of them seemed to hate it.

Of course, their brother who bought them the ribs they wanted to eat so much was like a god and a building owner.

Chiiik!

Along with the sound of grilling meat, the appetizing meat scent spreads faintly.

Perhaps because the gas was good, the smoke was sucked right out of the grill.

As expected of ribs that cost over 100,000 won per serving, the service was excellent.

TL: 100,000 won ($72 USD)

Since they grilled all the meat from start to finish, all I had to do was pick it up and eat it with chopsticks.

” Wow! This is so good! Ribs! Let’s eat ribs! It’s ribs! “

” Wow! This is amazing! I should film this and upload it on TikTok! “

” Woo-bin, you should eat vegetables with it since your brother bought it for you. “

” You don’t know anything, So-bin! You don’t have to eat vegetables at a barbecue restaurant! If you want to eat vegetables, go to a vegetable grill restaurant! “

” What’s a vegetable grill restaurant? “

” Hmm……. “

” Ah, Seung-hak is up. Seung-hak, do you want to eat meat? Mom and Dad, don’t just watch and eat. “

” Honey. Kyung-joon is doing this, so listen to him now. Here you go. “

” ……Okay. Kyung-joon, thank you for the food. “

” Yes. Enjoy your meal. “

Thus began the happy rib party of Kyung-joon’s family.

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

“Grandpa, you know I’m busy studying.”

Yoo Seol-ha, the top student at Cheongshin High School.

She let out a short, icy sigh and spoke to her grandfather beside her.

“I heard my granddaughter is studying too much, so this old man just wanted to play a little prank.”

“Sigh……”

Yoo Seol-ha, who was diligently studying at her house as usual.

Suddenly, a bodyguard in a black suit barged in without even knocking.

『Chairman is in critical condition. We need you to come with us right now.』

Yoo Seol-ha felt her heart drop at those words.

Her paternal grandfather was practically the only one she trusted among the many relatives of the Seolha family.

Without a shred of doubt, she immediately followed the bodyguard.

After being driven away in a trance-like state, she was greeted by this.

A sign that read 『Shilla Hotel』, and her grandfather rubbing his stomach as if he were hungry.

It was Yoo Geun-chul, the chairman of the Seolha Group.

He said this to Yoo Seol-ha, who was so dumbfounded that her mouth was agape.

Let’s eat ribs, ribs.

“You need to get some fresh air outside like this sometimes.”

Yoo Geun-chul was worried that his son and daughter-in-law were raising Seol-ha, their only daughter, too strictly.

He knew that as a chaebol’s child, she needed a proper education.

However, Yoo Geun-chul, a self-made man, wanted to raise his granddaughter, Seol-ha, as a bright and cheerful child like other children her age.

The current cold atmosphere was entirely the fault of his son and daughter-in-law.

It was also Yoo Geun-chul’s intention to enroll her in Cheongshin High School, a regular high school, instead of the high schools that only chaebol children attended.

“Seol-ha, you’re too uptight. So eat ribs, ribs. This old man will grill it for you himself.”

“Really…… Okay.”

And so, Yoo Seol-ha was half-forced by Yoo Geun-chul to come to Shilla Galbi.

“C, Chairman! To come here suddenly without any notice……!”

The staff at the counter was startled to see the chairman suddenly appear.

He quickly regained his composure and responded appropriately.

“Right this way to the VIP room on the second floor.”

“Sure.”

Yoo Seol-ha and Yoo Geun-chul were escorted by the Shilla Galbi staff, followed by a line of bodyguards in black suits.

“Hmm?”

Yoo Geun-chul’s wrinkled face suddenly tightened.

“Oh my! Oh my my! This meat melts in your mouth!”

“Hmm hmm. I’ve never tasted meat like this before.”

“Thanks to our Kyung-joon, your father and I get to eat something like this. We really have the best son, don’t we, honey?”

“Sob……”

“Huh……? Honey, are you crying right now?”

A table of six family members whose mere sight brought a smile to your face.

One young man in particular stood out.

No, his face still had a youthful air, too young to be called a young man.

“That student’s face……?”

Yoo Geun-chul had seen that face once before.

Kyung-joon.

He was the man who, just a few days ago, had declared at The World’s management meeting that he would take the top spot from his own granddaughter.
