The nu with the extraordinary, they'd have to reduce the staff and stay at the background of the ga the ed the very concept of virtual reality and regained their lost position And even more that that - they started to earn more money than ever before!
”What do they want from me? I don't think i broke any rules I'll have to make that visit”
Lee Hyun washed his face and went to the laundry to rent clean clothes He orking there at soreed on the stuff, paid for clothes, redressed and headed to Unicorn Corporation
To reach their main office he had to take the subway and then a few busses It was a very long and complicated trip, but aside from that, a costly one which irritated Lee Hyun thethere”
Lee Hyun was very worried
Nothing in his life was easy so far!
When he by an incredible twist of fate ic account, the money was taken froh just to become a sculptor in the end! Not to ood ite there just to receive some souvenir and be sent home They can't do that They shouldn't”
The event for players! Anything can happen there
Lee Hyun left the bus The street where the e skyscrapers Even at first glance everything looked expensive The road was filled with shi+ny i expensive suits
And in this environ of Unicorn Corporation stood out the s, and the sners sitting on beautiful orna merrily
There were also nificant events of Unicorn Corporation
A all these people Lee Hyun was a black sheep in his clean, but si, so without any delay he walked to the entrance at a quick pace
However, as soon as he approached tall glass doors, he was stopped by guards

”Wait a uards looked like overly s, they were very polite with Lee Hyun
'I guess there's a reason for that'
While Lee Hyun aiting, he heard so behind him He was very worried that he wouldn't be allowed to enter and the money he spent on the trip would be lost in vain
However, the guard quickly returned
”We checked with Mr Chang Yoon Soo He didn't think you would be able to coize”
”Ah, that's ok”
”The Public Relations Department is located on 43rd floor We hope you enjoy your visit”

”Honey water please”
”Eh, we don't have so tea”
To replenish energy and ood health one should only use healthy food Even if you do sports, if you don't eat properly, your health will suffer
Fortunately they had ginseng tea, so a little while later they received tea and cookies and began to talk
Chang Yoon Soo was behaving like an open and friendly person He briefly spoke about Unicorn Corporation and his department's aims He used many technical terms, so Lee Hyun didn't understand much
'I don't have to know all that anyway' – Lee Hyun thought, cal himself
Usually in such conversations the one who knows norant one can sit back and relax He just has to wait until the other party reveals their purpose to see possible benefits
'Looks like they're not going to give me any souvenirs So what do they want fro Yoon Soo noticed that Lee Hyun wasn't interested and moved to thethe recordings of the best players' adventures on our website”
Of course Lee Hyun knew that, he even watched them a few times
The Hall of Fame was one of the main sections of their website It hosted records of battles and adventures of the best players of Royal Road Being in there was considered a great honor
”Many players want to get into Hall of Fame, but the actual number is strictly limited by the company's rules The more players there are, the more dispersed the audience will be So our rules only allow players with Fame of 6000 or more to be featured there”
”That ree to show your game records in the Hall of Fame? You will have to provide a record of your quest or battle once a week That's all”
That was an unexpected offer
The Hall of Fa Bad Ray with the highest level in the game
But Lee Hyun wasn't interested in it
”I' for fanizeYoon Soo's eyes widened That response was completely unexpected for hioal of Royal Road was to become an emperor and unite the continent!
So a player who refused to become famous was a mystery for hi Yoon Soo with admiration
”Until now I have only met two types of players First, those that wish to receive the reward corresponding to their abilities Second, those that beg for it The coe and they try to improve their position by any ory”
Lee Hyun was listening in silence
