Regressor Instruction Manual (PART 1)

Chapter 153: Marlin Young-ae (3)

'Ah...

In front of me stood the Little Rock Guild Master, the guild who had kicked Cho Hyejin out. Instantly, I activated my Mind's Eye in order to read into his stats and attributes.

His stats weren't bad, but they weren't great, either. Nothing was notable enough to be remembered. Of course, I wasn't in a position to say that, but after seeing a lot of great people, he didn't look impressive to me at all.

Meanwhile, his disposition was...

'A Passionate, Ambitious Man.'

What a unique characteristic. He was definitely a leaf with different sides to him, though I had to admit it sounded awkward for some reason. It sounded like an ability that didn't really have any bonus effects. With this, I tried to picture what kind of person he really was.

'Aha..."

It was just a guess, but I think I knew how he got entangled with Cho Hyejin. Just looking at him talking to us in this manner gave me some sort of answer. Simply speaking, he saw an opportunity, and decided to take advantage of it. He probably wanted to make his presence known, or know more about us in turn.

He didn't seem to know that it was rude to barge in on Marlin during this time. perhaps it was even planned. It seemed like he could choose whether or not to welcome any newcomers in the area. I wasn't a judger, but I found it quite annoying.

"Ah, Song Jungwook-nim."

Though she acknowledged him, she didn't pay much attention to him. Instead, she wrapped an arm around Jung Hayan's shoulders and passed by him. For her, it was more important to focus on us.

"Who was he?"

"Ah. He's Little Rock Guild's Master Song Jungwook-nim..."

As I looked back, I could see Song Jungwook harboring a bitter expression, which was natural, considering he had just been humiliated.

Obviously, I had nothing to do with it. It wasn't as if he had spoken to me first, and it was Marlin Young-ae who had decided to run to our side alone. Meanwhile, I was just on my way to Jung Hayan. Therefore, the embarrassing situation that happened was not my doing.

Of course, he would show that face, considering that he was humiliated.

"Ah. You mean Little Rock."

"Yes."

"I heard about them. I heard that their scale is quite large in Castle Rock. Their adventure performance is also good. Did you say that they've attacked three rare dungeons and one heroic dungeon?"

"Ah... I-I don't know the details..."

"It's okay, Marlin Young-ae. We almost passed by a nobleman. Could you please call him if that's okay?"

"Yes, of course. Lord Rodrick? Could you please call Song Jungwook here?"

"Yes, Young-ae."

Song Jungwook's complexion still hinted at how hurt his pride was. However, it could not be avoided. That was, until Marlin Young-ae called for him.

Eventually, I saw him approaching us, biting his lip in an unsure manner.

"I'm sorry for earlier, Song Jungwook. I was too busy."

"No. It's okay, Young-ae."

"This is Lee Kiyoung Lee, Vice Master of the Blue Guild from Lindel. He really wants to talk with you..."

"I see."

At this, he glanced at me with an expression that seemed to say, 'of course you do.' He seemed to think I had a special intention for doing so. With this, Song Jungwook held his hand out for me to shake.
