Chapter 198: Ian's Devildom Travel Journal (3)
TL: Haku
Editor: Hungry Panda
Ian's entry into the Devildom, so to speak, was a sort of 'accident'
In order for the Devildom Entry Quest to occur, one needed to clear quests that were related to at least two of the heroes of the continent
On top of that, in order for the quests to be invoked, one needed toa Class Proficiency that was 'Master Level 2', and they also needed to have maximum Affinity with an ancient NPC that could open a dimensional door from the human world
The ined that there would be a user that already met all of these requirements
Luckily for Ian, as soon as the northern continent opened up, he cleared the quest related to Oakley, and thanks to Kanjihoonie, he was even able to freeload the last of Immortal's quest
Thanks to Gripper, he was acquainted with Iriel for a long time now, and his Class Proficiency was now to the point it was reaching Master Level 3 now
All of these gears fell into place like a lie, and this situation where it was hard for theh was created
LB Corp was completely turned upside down because of Ian
They already had the large-scale update approaching closer as a matter of fact, but it was a situation where they had hundreds of s to do than normal
On top of that, as Ian hadn't logged off even though it was co close to two full days since he's been on and reaking havoc, forget a throbbing head, the er's head was about to explode
”For now, it's most important that we have none of the employees speak about this fact so that it doesn't slip out externally”
”that's right There's no greater shame than this”
”Ha, how could theteam not know about this until the dimensional door actually opened up?”
”It's not just thethat none of us was able to predict”
”No, but still…”
The conference's discussion was focused on finding out how they could solve this probleently as possible
A hest seat of the round table where about fifteen or so people were sitting, stroked his beard as he opened his mouth
”In ood to make a deal with user Ian”
”Is that so?”
”That's right I think it would be best to send a ht now and propose a deal”
”Aheoods that he obtained after entering Devildoo up anyways…”
The man shook his head as he replied
”This is not a problem that will be solved that easily Since either way, this situation was ourperfectly normally”
”So, are you saying that we should acknowledge the profit that user Ian obtained up to an extent, but instead ask hiht now?”
The man nodded his head
”That's right I don't kno long user Ian won't log out and continue to endure this, but even if he lasts about one more day, it is really critical to us”
”Why's that?”
”Since if user Ian doesn't coe-scale update as scheduled”
”Oh…”
”Pfft, still, he's been playing for al out soon even if we leave him alone now?”
At those words, one fe quietly to the conference from one of the corners, opened her h
”I've checked the data on user Ian's ga record, but there was even a record where he had played continuously for, I think it was 73 hours, before”
”Inplayer”
”Ha”
Had about 30 more minutes passed by like that?
The an to stand up
And the gazes all gathered towards one man
”Then, I will log onto the game this way and try to secretly contact user Ian”
As the man packed up the notepad where he jotted down the contents of the conference and stood up, the hest seat nodded his head as he spoke
”I will hand over all power over this incident to you, so talk ith the user named Ian and come to a conclusion”
”Yes, understood, Department Head”
Meanwhile, Ian, who had no idea about the situation of LB Corp, was met with a difficulty(?) in his oay
This was because, unrelated to the intentions of Yankoun, he was unable to take him in as a Familiar nor as a retainer
You cannot take in Chief Gatekeeper of the Devildom 'Yankoun' as your retainer
In order to take in a devil as a retainer, you need the title the 'Ruler of the Devildom'
”Keu-heum…”
You cannot capture the Chief Gatekeeper of the Devildom 'Yankoun'
It is impossible to capture humanoid monsters
Ian's expression distorted
'daht of such a case'
Ian had appointed over twenty retainers now at this point
Ast them, there anderer NPCs of the central continent, as well as NPCs that he appointed from the Human Resource Centre of the Pyro Domain
Of course, he also had interesting cases where he had obtained them while in the middle of a quest like Kaizar or Paulean, but the one with the greatest ratio was directly appointing them
And by appointing all of those retainers, Ian was able to realize so
'As expected, there's no other e and country'
As Ian's Fa individuals without difficulty
However, when he needed to appoint any exceptional retainers that exceeded Paulean's rank, he always pressed theth
By beating theain, they became his retainer in no time
Because of that, he applied that same method to even Yankoun, and as expected, it was successful
'damn it, if it only wasn't for this daer than Kaizar'
Ian was incredibly disappointed, but there was nothing he could do
'After this place is forain and take him in as my retainer once I obtain the Ruler of the Devildom or whatever the title was'
Ian licked his lips as he spoke to Yankoun
”Tsk… I can't take you in as my retainer at the moment”
At that, Yankoun wore an incredulous expression
What's the proble too much for you to take in as a retainer?
While looking at Yankoun, whose face turned bright red with one breath, Ian waved his hands
