The S-Classes That I Raised

is no helping it.” Suk Simyeong nodded, putting on a bitter smile.
“As you want, we will only provide room and board.”

……Really just room and board? I mean, in these situations, shouldn’t you be a little more caring? Cutting things off and throwing them away with no basis, this ahjussi definitely had a bad personality, unlike his outer appearance.

“Please contact me anytime if you happen to find a passion for work.”

“……Yes.”

Rather than rumors of nepotism coming out, I’d probably get lots of sympathetic gazes.
Beside me, even Yerim was sending me pitying looks.

“Don’t worry, ahjussi.
I’m rich now.”

“I have enough money too.”

Though I’d have to save up and buy stocks.

Ah, but this was really too much.
I even brought over and presented an S-Rank Awakened Person and all I got was room and board? Just in case, I snuck a glance at Suk Simyeong, who was straightening up documents.

“Is there no incentive for Bak Yerim-yang’s successful contract?”

“Since it was a matter that occurred before you joined, of course there is not.
Ah, should I add an incentive condition?”

…That there wasn’t any because it was before I joined, it felt like I was scammed.
Should I have tried to earn something when we were working on Yerim’s contract? I looked out only for the kid.
But there was still one thing left.

“Please add a condition for an incentive if I successfully contract with an S-Rank Awakened Person or A-Rank that is equivalent to an S-Rank, like a saint.”

Yoo Myeongwoo.
If you had an SS-Rank production skill, you’d be treated almost like S-Rank, like saints were, even if you couldn’t go into an S-Rank dungeon.

I was orginally just going to bring him in, but because I felt wronged, I should get paid.

At my words, Suk Simyeong put on an easygoing smile and took out a pen.

“I will add it to a certain extent.
Please tell me the sum of money, as well as reward, you want.”

As I was about to tell him to just give me 100 billion, I stopped.
At any rate, with time, I wouldn’t be so short on money.
So instead of money.

“Do you happen to know the fact that I am raising a baby Horned Flame Lion?”

“Yes, I was informed by Guild Leader.”

“How should I say this, that guy is pretty cute.
He follows me pretty well.
So I want to receive one baby monster around the same rank as a Horned Flame Lion, or three baby monsters that are one level in rank lower.
With the condition that Haeyeon Guild will shoulder the taming and rearing costs.”

“Baby monsters?”

Suk Simyeong had a rare surprised expression.
Then again, it was something shocking.
Since I choose pets over money or items.

But the monsters that I would receive from the incentive would be entirely mine, unlike Peace, who was owned by Yoohyun and raised with his money.

If it was similar in rank to a Horned Flame Lion, I could take it into and attack a B-Rank dungeon, so it couldn’t be compared to some small amount of money.

If I failed to apply the keyword, then well, I’d just gain one more pet.
Since I wouldn’t be raising them with my money, it wouldn’t be a loss.
Later, when the monster raising regulations ease up, should I go out on broadcasts? It’d be popular.

“…It is not an impossible condition but it is unusual.
Do you have some other purpose?”

Suk Simyeong tilted his head, with a completely confused look on his face.

“Does it seem like I do?”

“It would make sense if you do, but… I do not know.
I will add in the condition for now.
However, high ranking baby monsters are difficult to catch, and do not often appear in auctions, so the payment may be late.”

“S-Rank Awakened People don’t appear often either, haha.”

Of course, I was planning on making Yoo Myeongwoo into an SS-Rank production skill holder.
If I used My Brat about three times, he’d probably be able to gain it, right?

We finished my joining and finally stood up from our seats.
It would be great if I didn’t see this ahjussi for a long time.

“Then I suppose we will see each other often from now on.”

What was he saying.
I wasn’t going to even glance at the human reasources team and was going to avoid them.

…He wouldn’t come find me or something, right?

When we went outside, I examined Yerim’s parents’ inheritance materials that we received from Suk Simyeong.
A 50-pyeong[8] apartment was sold off, and a commercial building was sold off with the excuse that it would be too hard to manage.

After snatching up this much, you couldn’t even buy the kid sneakers? What a lack of conscience.[9]

“You’re really not going to take legal action?”

At my question, Yerim nodded her head with an uninterested expression.

“I don’t want to be involved with them for a long time.
Anyways you said my base pay was over 10 billion yearly.”

That was so, but.
Then again, thinking of the future, it would be better to release the leeches after letting them take enough.
It would be annoying if they kept on trying to contact us and kicked up a fuss by going on broadcasts with teary pleas.

“Then let’s drop by the legal team and get the necessary materials, and go directly to them.
Since it’s still the morning, the restaurant wouldn’t be open, right?”

“On Sundays, they open at 1 pm, so we should go to the house.”

Yerim told me the house address.
So they lived in a good neighborhood.
Then again, how much was it that they snatched up? That said, the shop looked deserted and shabby.

They wouldn’t have squandered the inheritance already, right? Then it would be even easier to grab their weakpoint.

[1] the verb comes last in krn (S DO V, or DO S V, etc.) so there is no verb in this cut off sentence, but eng doesn’t work like that so I had to make do.

[2] lit.
‘make porridge and give to a dog’ which means ‘do fruitless work’/‘work hard for no results’ /‘work hard and someone else takes the credit’

[3] excellent example of konglish slang: the word itself is ‘cunning’ transliterated into krn, but it means ‘to cheat, cheating’.

[4] not ‘normal’ as in ‘not unusual’ but like ‘normal person’/‘ordinary person’ so I’m assuming it means ‘non-Hunter’

[5] lit.
‘suffered 조리돌림 by the past public’ where 조리돌림 is the noun form of the verb 조리돌리다, which the krn-eng dictionary I checked defines as ‘drag/lead a malefactor through the streets to expose them to public shame’.
So.

[6] the word for wage/pay used so far meant monthly pay fyi

[7] i’m assuming it’s 5 thousand something (50 million perhaps? Krn counts in intervals of 4 digits instead of 3 like in eng, so it would most likely be 5 thousand ten-thousand) instead of just 5 thousand itself otherwise this makes no sense, but the raws just say this

[8] pyeong is a way of counting land space and 1 pyeong is apparently 3.3058 m2 or 35.583 ft2

[9] lit.
‘fur grows on conscience so much that it must be doubly, triply dense’ where ‘fur grows on conscience’ means that you betray/don’t listen to your conscience
