My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 360: Why Don't You Redo The Proposal Again?

[Yes, but before that can you give me some recommendations?] King Se-jong asked and Haru sighed before laughing.

"Old man you're hopeless, But don't worry I won't leave a fellow sweet enjoyer without help,"

After 10 more minutes Haru opened his eyes and was back in front of the Statue of Se-jong in Gwang-hwamun.

"Ah, you finally woke up? Do you know how long we have been waiting here for?" Hee-won said in exasperation.

"What happened? Wasn't it like 10 or so minutes?" Haru asked and Hee-won shook her head.

"Haru you've been like that for a whole day," Jin-ah said making Haru's eyes go wide as he looked at Alea who also nodded.

Haru quickly took out his phone and then looked up to see the three people who had just lied to his face.

"Can't believe you fell for that trick," Hee-won laughed with Alea and Jin-ah.

'I thought Kanae was going to blow her head off in anger if I wasted a whole day here,' That was the reason Haru took out his phone, he thought Kanae might've left to do things with Hae-in since he couldn't feel them nearby.

'She is very difficult to calm down if she gets upset,' Haru thought, but thankfully there was no need to worry about that.

"Hmm, Who are they?" Haru pointed at Ji-won's group that was coming toward him.

"Well, you see…" As Hee-won was about to explain Ji-won had already reached them.

"Greetings Fellow King, My name is Min Ji-won and I am the King of Seong-Dong District," Ji-won introduced herself in a very sophisticated manner.

"Ah, yes, Nice to meet you," Hee-won's stifled laughter could be heard from behind Haru as she was having a hard time not laughing because he was caught off guard by Ji-won's clothes and the way she talked.

"I would like to make a proposal to you, I wonder if you'd accept it?" Ji-won said and another blue window popped up in front of Haru.

[A Bounty Scenario has arrived]

[Bounty Scenario – Unification of the Three Kingdoms]

Category: Bounty

Difficulty: ???

Clear Conditions: The great people of Silla want the incarnation of Silla, 'Min Ji-won' to become king of the three regions. Help the incarnation 'Min Ji-won' and kill the kings with Later Baek-je and Tae-bong backgrounds. If this scenario succeeds, you will gain the favor of the constellation, Slumbering Lady of Fine Brocade.

Time Limit: 38 hours

Compensation: 2,000 coins.

Failure: ―

Haru read through the contents of the scenario a few times to make sure he wasn't seeing things.

'As expected, He is shocked by the number of coins offered,' Ji-won smiled while hiding her lips with the sleeve of her costume.

'She wants me to fight two Kings for 2,000 coins?' Haru was shocked just like Ji-won thought, but for a different reason.

"So, what will it be?" Ji-won asked while looking at Haru.

'Is it just me or she looks extremely smug right now?' Dok-ja wondered what type of offer Ji-won had made to be this confident.

"Sorry but I'd have to decline," Haru said as Ji-won's face froze.

"It was nice meeting you though Min Ji-won-ssi, we'll take our leave," Haru said and walked away, Hee-won and the others also followed after him since there was no need to stay there anymore.

"W-Wait!!" Ji-won shouted and Haru looked back wondering what happened.

"A big battle between Kings will soon encroach this Area and smaller groups like yours will suffer, Surely you understand that?" Ji-won shouted like Haru was making a stupid mistake by rejecting her offer, well that would've been true if this was a normal-sized small or medium group, But…

'So, who is going to tell her?' Hee-won looked at her group mates to figure out who would be breaking the news to Ji-won about how big their group actually is.

"You don't need to worry about us," Haru said and Ji-won thought he might already have a backer which made him confident.

'It doesn't look like he belongs to the other two groups otherwise he would've tried to be a spy or attack me outright, So it has to be another group that is big in number, if that is true then…' Ji-won got another order from her Constellation.

"If it is the compensation, I can increase it, how about 3000 coins?" Ji-won's face said this 'There is no way you can reject that'

'Did she just sound so proud while offering 3000 coins? No wait, her previous offer was lower than that?' Dok-ja's face became devoid of any expression, if it was that cheap to get Haru's help he would've happily given that, hell he'd even spend 10 times that if he could get Haru alone on his side let alone their group.

Hee-won, Jin-ah, and Alea were also not in a good state, they weren't angry or anything. It's just that….

'Haha, I might die,' Hee-won was now hiding behind Haru to cover her face since she could no longer stop her facial muscles.

Jin-ah and Alea were shaking trying to hold in the laughter themselves.

And it wasn't just them…

[Several constellations aren't sure what to say in the current situation.]

[The Constellation 'Prisoner Of The Golden Headband' can't believe what he has just heard.]

[3,000 Coins have been Sponsored.]

[The Constellation 'Secretive Plotter' is laughing.]

[3,000 Coins have been sponsored.]

[The Constellation 'Noble Child Of The Sun' is appalled by the situation.]

[3,000 Coins have been sponsored.]

[The Constellation 'Desserts For Days' is saying his ice cream is worth more than that so do better.]

[6,000 Coins have been sponsored.]

[The Constellation 'Dessert For Days' sent the Constellation 'Lady Of The Slumbering Brocade' 10,000 Coins with a message, 'Why don't you redo the proposal with this?']

[The Constellation 'Lady Of The Slumbering Brocade' is left speechless.]

'Why are these guys so rude?' Haru thought as he coughed and looked back at Ji-won.

"I would still decline, then until we meet again," Haru said and they turned leaving with his group swiftly.

"H-Hey, Wait!!" Ji-won ran forward wanting to catch up to Haru and his group who had already left the vision by the time she came to her senses.

"Your majesty!!" Her soldiers followed after her seeing her run away.

Haru and the group were now walking towards the National Palace Museum of Korea, there were quite a few reasons for that but currently, the group wasn't able to focus on that.

"Hahaha, I seriously can't, 3,000 coins!!" Hee-won has been belly laughing while hitting Haru's back as they walked.

She was still hung on how Ji-won offered Haru 3,000 coins and basically asked him to become her subordinate.

"Stop laughing already," Haru sighed.

'Why not ask her to stop hitting you as well? Does he not feel any of that?' Dok-ja knew he would be in tears if Hee-won hit his back continuously like that.

"Hey, Haru would you do anything I ask if I give you 3,000 coins?" Alea asked while wriggling her eyebrows.

"Not you too,"

'Well, that certainly was a shock,' Dok-ja shook his head as well, if it had happened to him Dok-ja would've surely shown Ji-won the difference between them because that was the most logical way to shut her up.

'Haru is just a bit too polite,' Dok-ja had seen him being like that since he joined the company, Haru was quite well known for his politeness and humble attitude in the company.

Which was one of the reasons he was so popular there as well.

With these thoughts, the group was just outside the museum, and that's when they heard a shout from behind.

"Stop right there!!" It was Ji-won again.

"Ah! Haru she is here to recruit you again, maybe she'll increase 500 coins this time," Hee-won said pointing at her as she came close with her soldiers coming behind her.

Dok-ja looked at Ji-won and was about to say something but sparks flew in the sky and a familiar Dokkaebi came out of nowhere.

"Who is that dolled-up furball?" Jin-ah tilted her head looking at the Dokkaebi she had seen for the first time. But she could tell that he was a problematic one.

'As expected he appeared,' Dok-ja was the one who remembered this Dokkaebi since he was the one who appeared at An-guk station, and he was a Grade A asshole.

Dok-ja knew the reason why this Dokkaebi appeared as well, It was very simple.

'Things are too peaceful right now, so he is here to spread some chaos,' All of the groups in Seoul were mainly focused on the museum right now, the reason for that was the fake revelation Dok-ja spread through the Dokkaebi bag.

The SSSSS-Grade item, Four Yin Demon Decapitator.

Dok-ja made this item the most valuable prize to acquire in Gwanghamun which drew in all of the kings here, and currently, all of the groups were avoiding combat to consolidate their power.

'That sword is a good item but it isn't needed right now,' Dok-ja had several plans in his head on how to do things.

But currently, things were stagnant which didn't sit well with the Dokkaebis, hence there was an intermediate Dokkaebi interfering.

[Huhu, this is really surprising. All the key people are gathered.] He said with a smile and then snapped his finger [Shouldn't good children be awarded a prize?]

Some powerstones would be much appreciated....
