The Martial God who Regressed Back to Level 2 Novel

Chapter 140

"I'm sorry about last time."

"What are you talking about?"

"It's not Sung JiHan's fault, but I got annoyed..."

Was she talking about the incident when Ha Yoo Ri was attacked in the coach's office?

Sung JiHan responded nonchalantly.

"It's okay. It's because of your sister. I understand."

"Thank you for saying that. But, um..."

Ha Yeon Joo hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

"I'm really sorry, but could you accompany me to visit Yoo Ri... just once?"

"A visit?"

"Yes. Yoo Ri hasn't fully recovered consciousness yet, and she's blaming herself and feeling depressed... She asked if she's ruining the game because of herself."

"But the result didn't end well, did it?"

"Well, that's true, but..."

Top star Ha Yoo Ri.

Ha Yeon Joo knew well about her sister's popularity.

The most successful female actress in the 21st century.

Her innocent beauty that captivated the Asian market played a bigger role in her success as an actress than her acting skills.

Because she received overwhelming support from men, Ha Yeon Joo thought it would be easy for Sung JiHan to accept her request to accompany her for a visit...

"I'm sorry, but I have to level up today."

"Well, um... I..."

Ha Yeon Joo looked flustered when Sung JiHan rejected her request so decisively.

Yoon Se Ah, who had been watching from behind, stepped forward, seeming frustrated.

"Oh, uncle. You can just go and play the game later! That person came to see you and got into an accident."

"Have I been here for a long time? And you have to go to the hospital too if you're going. What about Akari?"

"Oh, is that so? I and Akari have a lot of luggage."

"Luggage? What are you talking about! It's okay! I'll prepare a limousine!"

Ha Yeon Joo hurriedly said.

She realized that Yoon Se Ah held the key to persuade Sung JiHan.

"Se Ah, would you like to come for the visit too?"

"Me too? Yoo Ri-nim didn't even mention me..."

"Oh no! We talked a lot about you. Someone appeared to take your place as her sister."

"Oh, come on. How could I... How could someone take Ha Yeon Joo's place! It doesn't make sense!"

Yoon Se Ah clapped her hands.

Ha Yeon Joo, the leader of the national archery team.

After the departure of the Sword King, she was the strongest player in Korea.

Now, Yoon Se Ah, who was only at the silver level, was no longer a worthy opponent to compare with.

"Yes. Se Ah, you were an archer too, right? If it's okay, I can give you some advice while we go together..."

"Really?"

Yoon Se Ah looked at Sung JiHan with sparkling eyes.

"Samchoon..."

The person she admired the most in the same class was giving her advice directly.

How could she miss this opportunity?

"Oh, me too!"

Ha Yeon Joo accurately assessed her target.

Sung JiHan nodded.

"I'll just go and say hello and then log into the game. Is that okay?"

"Of course! Just your presence would be appreciated. I'll call the limousine right away!"

Ha Yeon Joo's face turned pale.

* * *

Inside the large limousine called by Ha Yeon Joo.

"Se Ah, you don't have to treat the accuracy correction item as just training. It's helpful to compare it by using it and then not using it."

"Ah, Unni. I see! I was really curious about that....!"

Ha Yeon-joo and Yoon Se-ah, who had already started talking, couldn't stop their conversation because they had so much to say.

As a way of repaying Yoon Se-ah for her efforts in bringing Sung JiHan, Ha Yeon-joo was sharing as many tips as possible to help her grow as a senior archer.

"It's worth visiting the sick."

Sung JiHan thought this way and recalled Ha Yeon-joo from her previous life.

As an SS-grade gift holder with the ability "Focused Sniping," she showed optimized skills in team games rather than individual matches.

"When she hit the target, it had a significant correction effect on the accuracy and damage of her allies."

The characteristic of Korean archers was their ability to effectively neutralize one opponent through focused shooting.

Ha Yeon-joo's gift was the key to this.

"So, after she retired from the Space League, the Korean national team, which was already in a bad state, fell even further."

The Space League matches featured top players from around the world.

Ha Yeon-joo was also selected as one of the archers.

She died during a match against the Elves.

"In the game, death can be resurrected as long as you have enough GP...."

In the first World Battle.net Association Space League, she fell into a trap set by the Elven Union and made a big mistake.

Since many top players died during matches against them, the gap left by the lost players had a significant impact even in the future.

As a result, the Earth's league ranking remained at the bottom, and the first year's disaster was the main cause.

"Ha Yeon-joo. This time, I won't let you die because of me."

Since she had returned, she couldn't let herself be defeated by the Elves again.

While Sung JiHan was thinking about how to deal with the Elves in the Space League, the car stopped in front of a hospital.

"We have arrived."

"Manager Yu-ri, what are you doing now? Are you sleeping? Ah, you were watching the match? Yes, please tell him I'll be up soon. I'm with a guest."

Ha Yeon-joo called her manager, Yu-ri.

"Shall we go then?"

Sung JiHan and his group got out of the car.

Suddenly, bodyguards from the cars in front and behind them appeared and protected the group.

"You seem to have a lot of people."

"Without bodyguards, daily life is impossible. I don't have the presence like Sung JiHan."

As Ha Yeon-joo said, as soon as she entered the hospital, everyone's attention was focused on her.

"Wow, it's Ha Yeon-joo... She's even more goddess-like in person."

"Sung JiHan is here too? He even has a nephew!"

"What's going on? Why are they suddenly at the hospital?"

"I want to get their autographs... If I request one, will they do it?"

"Approaching is prohibited when there are bodyguards."

Even though it was a VIP ward with few people to begin with, a crowd quickly gathered to see what was happening.

Among them, there were quite a few doctors and nurses.

"Without bodyguards, I can't do anything other than give autographs."

Sung JiHan nodded.

He had seen this kind of scene a lot even during his time in the United States.

"At that time, the fans were even more intense than now."

Back then, when the threat of dungeons became a reality, players were not only sports stars but also responsible for national defense.

Compared to the time when fans would break through even with bodyguards and ask for autographs and selfies, the current reaction was relatively mild.

"Yeon-joo Unni, you're here? Oh, uh... Se, Sung JiHan-nim...!?"

Ha Yu-ri's VIP room.

The female manager who came out to greet Ha Yeon-joo was surprised when she saw the people behind her.

Just a moment ago, she was screaming while watching Sung JiHan on TV.

She never expected to see that player in person.

"Wait. Shh. Shh."

Ha Yeon-joo smiled and covered her manager's mouth.

"I brought him as a surprise."

"Ah...!"

Then the manager paused for a moment.

He waved his hand.

"Oh no! Unni!"

While whispering softly into Hayeonju's ear.

"Yuri, it means bare face...!"

"Why? What's wrong with Yuri's bare face?"

"Why, you ask? How can a fan meet a star with a bare face! I'll go in first!"

Shouting loudly, the manager entered the hospital room.

"What. What. What, really? The customer is Sung JiHan!?"

"Yes! Get up quickly!"

"Ah, really Unni! Why didn't you tell me in advance! You should have told me about this!"

Inside, the sound of whispering could be heard clearly in Sung JiHan's ears.

"It will take a while."

"Uh, earlier... did you hear?"

"Yes. I have good hearing."

"Ah, right, you're a warrior... But really, Yuri looks prettier with a bare face. I don't understand why she's overdoing it like that."

Hayeonju, lacking understanding of fan sentiment.

She continued to tilt her head, not understanding why her younger sister was acting like that.

After 10 minutes passed and the door still didn't open, Sung JiHan sighed and said,

"Should we just play a game for a bit?"

"Ah, wait! I'll go in!"

Hayeonju hurriedly entered the hospital room.

As soon as she entered, she shouted loudly.

"Hey! Hayuri! You're waiting, you know! What kind of rudeness is this!"

"Ah, I got it. Unni! I'm done! I just need to put on lipstick!"

"Ha. What's with the patient... Just stay bare-faced, why do you have to put on such heavy makeup!"

"Gosh. You're lucky to have good skin because you're a player, Unni! Regular people can't help it!"

"Um... Uncle. I can hear now too."

"If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have come here."

"Hehe. Thanks. I learned a lot of tips from Yeonju Unni thanks to you."

While having a conversation with Yoon SaeA, Hayeonju came out with a tired expression.

"I'm really sorry, Sung JiHan. Let's go in now."

Finally, is it time to enter?

As Sung JiHan and his group entered, Hayuri stood next to the bed and bowed at a 90-degree angle.

She had done a full makeup that didn't match the patient's gown, and she looked incredibly beautiful, just like in a TV commercial.

"Nice to meet you for the first time, Sung JiHan-nim."

"Hey, you! Why is the sick person standing up!"

"How dare I meet Sung JiHan-nim while lying down. It's not appropriate for the first manager of The First, 'Downglass'."

"Well, well... Manager?"

"Uh... Downglass is Hayuri-nim?"

Being active in the fan cafe The First, she had risen to the position of manager with the stage name 'Downglass'.

Although her name was Hayuri, Sung JiHan didn't think that she was the one called Downglass.

"Yes. My name is Hayuri. I'm just doing some entertainment activities. Ah... I really guessed right. To meet Sung JiHan like this... and even visit you in the hospital! Earlier in the interview, you said you were going to level up, so I was waiting for the live broadcast. I was wondering why you weren't doing it like this! Really, I have no limits today!"

At first, she seemed to be controlling her tone, but she couldn't contain her excitement and poured out her words like a storm. Hayuri's body was trembling.

"For now, lie down. You might collapse."

"How can I lie down in front of Sung JiHan...!"

"...I'll move you."

Sung JiHan reached out his hand, and Hayuri's body floated up.

Then, with a blushing face, she exclaimed,

"Wow! Power! I never thought I would experience this firsthand! This isn't a dream, right? Huh? Unni?"

"...sigh. I wish it was just a dream. This thing."

Ha Yeon-joo let out a deep sigh and approached Ha Yu-ri, covering her with a blanket.

Sung JiHan, seeing her like that, decided to focus on the purpose of the visit.

"Are you okay? I heard there was an accident because of me."

"Is it because of Sung JiHan-nim? That guy tried to force me to drink and caused the accident. Sung JiHan-nim did nothing wrong! And besides, I'm fine now."

Ha Yu-ri looked at Sung JiHan with sparkling eyes.

"After meeting you in person, I feel like my worries have disappeared and I could fly in the sky."

"Isn't that dangerous?"

"Oh! Yoon Se-ah-nim! I'm also subscribed to your channel!"

Upon hearing Yoon Se-ah's muttering, Ha Yu-ri clapped her hands and reacted to her own thoughts.

"What?"

"I told my sister about it. A super rookie who threatens her appeared!"

"No, it's not that serious..."

"No. I'm sure of what I saw!"

She confidently pointed to her own eyes.

"I also have a decent gift!"

"Yu-ri! What are you saying?"

Ha Yeon-joo tried to cover her mouth quickly.

"A gift?"

Sung JiHan approached Ha Yu-ri.

He had intended to just make a casual visit and leave.

But her words piqued his interest.

"A gift... Could it be a supporting gift?"

"Yes. Yes...!"

"Hey! Yu-ri, you promised not to say anything about it!"

"Oh well. Sung JiHan-nim is an exception! I have the ability to sense 'emotions'!"

Despite her sister's prohibition, Ha Yu-ri blurted out everything.

Sung JiHan found her behavior absurd, but he was interested in her words.

A supporting gift called 'emotions'... Ha Yu-ri had it?

"But isn't this ability vague?"

Emotions.

He knew it as an ability that simply showed hidden item descriptions.

Compared to Ha Yeon's 'nurturing' or Shi-zuru's 'editing', its value was significantly lower.

However...

"With this ability, I can also assess a player's potential to some extent!"

Let's say she can see a player's potential through emotions.

Ari, who was standing at the back with Akari, secretly sent a message.

[Master, didn't we say there were no emotion ability users before?]

"That's what I remember."

[To be able to determine a player's potential, at least a minimum of B, right?]

"Is that so?"

B-grade supporting gifts were rare cases on Earth.

Sung JiHan's eyes sparkled.

"As expected, people need to use their hearts wisely."

So, they found such talent?

Sung JiHan thought he did well with the visit for the purpose of the hospital visit, and he looked closely at Ha Yu-ri.

"Hehe..."

She, unaware of Sung JiHan's thoughts, just giggled while looking into his eyes.

"...Are you an idiot?"

To the point where she couldn't even see her own sister.
