Chapter 135 (2/2)

“Please wrap up everything I set to the side earlier, too.”

“Yes, madam!”

The employee’s voice is full of envy. The blonde woman comes to this store whenever she is bored, and she has never spent less than 1 million krona ($36 million). She must spend 10 million krona on average every month.

Not even the rich can easily spend money like this. The employee looks at the blonde woman’s wrist. She has a PDA – what only those chosen to be Lifers can wear. Even level E Lifers who are stuck in level E missions earn $20,000 to $30,000 in a day. That is a year’s salary for a young person in today’s society. That is actually how much the employee’s salary is.

“Deliver this to my house by tonight.”

“Yes, of course. Thank you for visiting!”

The employee gathered her thoughts. The woman is from a different world. Someone that she herself cannot become.

Beep beep!

The blonde woman’s PDA lights up. Someone is requesting a voice call.

[You’re out?] [I almost died trying to get past 100,000 points. Ah! Did you see the advertisement from the world federation?] [I saw it. I was in reality.] [I thought about it carefully, and it’s difficult for the 2 of us to get through this.]

Levels D and E were possible through separate parties or forces. But they cannot do that with level C. They will fall to it if they enter a 2 million point mission with people who float around. They need allies, even if they are not colleagues that they can trust and depend on.

[You’re saying we should contact the world federation and seek cooperation?] [There’s nothing to lose. We can’t try out different strategies because it’s not like we’ve got multiple like in the virtual version. With level C as a start, thinking about advancing through level A and B, we need to have a team.]

Is it just any ordinary team? It is a team made up of rankers. There are 15 rankers that the world federation has officially announced. She heard that 4 died in Mechanic City recently, and it is a large number even without those 4.

[I’m sure there are other rankers who are reacting to the advertisement like we are. I’m sure there’s actually a lot more.]

That is right. Including Cha Jun Sung’s group, there are 17 rankers.

[Immediately?] [No. It’ll be weird if we show up out of nowhere, no let’s just leave a note saying that we’ll join in 6 months.]

They have accumulated plenty of points by working through 200,000 to 300,000 point missions. They can hang out freely for now and put their hands out at the very end. If they need to, they can join a separate force and raise the difficulty. If there people willing to help them, they can cover the 2 of them.

[I’ll see you in a couple days.] [Rest.]

The blonde woman leaves Panenaly Department Store.

“I’ll see you in 6 months, cute rankers.”

She winks at the large screen TV.

5th place ranking Nine Tails. Eurasia Delhi.

Just as the world federation had intended, Eurasia saw the advertisement video. Though there is no way for them to know that.
