Chapter 69

    It was a transparent liquid inside a ss bottle, and Suho checked its information.


    [ Hammer 2 ]


    <ul>


    <li><strong>Grade</strong>: C</li>


    <li><strong>Description</strong>: A drug neutralizer created by ‘Nam Hae-won.’</li>


    <li><strong>Effect</strong>: Strong neutralizing effect against a drug called ‘Fantasy.’</li>


    </ul>


    Huh?


    Is this for real?


    Suho asked with a surprised look on his face.


    “How did you make this?”


    “This is an improved version of the neutralizer I usedst. That''s why I named it Hammer 2. Since it''s an improved version, I was able to make it easily. Still, I can guarantee its effectiveness. Hammer 1 was a D-grade, you know.”


    “Wait, what? But why name it ‘Hammer’?”


    “The drug is called Fantasy. I named it ‘Hammer’ because it crushes all the effects of Fantasy.”


    Ah.


    Now that he said that, Suho remembered.


    Nam Hae-won hadter mentioned in an interview that what saved him was the A-grade Hammer 4.


    ‘Even if there was a prototype, to already have the second version ready...’


    Suho was truly astonished.


    Of course, he would be.


    There was no clearer proof of quality than the upgrade of an item’s grade.


    ‘Items created by yers are usually vaguelybeled for their effects...’


    Thus, the most undeniable proof of value is the grade marked on the item.


    Suho sincerely expressed his admiration.


    “That''s really impressive.”


    “Haha, no, it''s all thanks to you, Hunter. I was nning to create Hammer 2 soon, and I was saving up for the materials. But you supported me with the workshop and materials, so I just did the synthesis grind.


    Actually, with enough time and money, I can make these easily. Since my synthesis trait is unique to me, there''s no recipe in the world, and it’s purely a numbers game. Well, this time, I just got lucky and managed to make it quickly.”


    Nam Hae-won said, almost shyly.


    He was being humble, but Suho didn’t think so at all.


    On the contrary, he felt excited.


    ‘If he’s showing this much ability now, what would happen if he reached level 100 and his trait evolved further?’


    He would probably experience an insanely rapid growth, far beyond what he was capable of now.


    Suho smiled and said.


    “This is a great oue. Should we mass-produce Hammer 2 and distribute it right away? I didn’t expect a neutralizer toe out so quickly.”


    “I''ve figured out the form, so as long as you provide the materials, we can make it anytime.”


    “Perfect, I’ll prepare it right away. But, Hae-won, what’s your current level? I saw you were level 50 on the document.”


    “I’m level 51 now. I didn’t know, but when you seed in synthesis, you get a bit of experience.”


    “Oh, really?”


    Suho hadn’t known that.


    He learned a new piece of information and decided to level up Nam Hae-won with his synthesis trait for now.


    He could always go to the Digitation dungeon to save the victimster.


    Just as Jo Jin-hwi had predicted.


    <ul>


    <li><strong>Where is the justice in Yeongdeungpo? Part 1.</strong> Views: 512</li>


    </ul>


    The article, titled "Yeongdeungpo Series," had been posted as a special feature.


    It had been a day since the article was posted, but the views hadn’t even surpassed a thousand.


    This wasn’t surprising.


    After all, there were many areas in society that had be slums.


    So the story about the police and Daehyeonhyup ignoring requests for help wasn’t a big topic.


    However, Jo Jin-hwi, Suho, and Nexus weren’t disappointed.


    This was merely the foundation for the bigger picture.


    That’s why Suho continued to work hard on helping the victims before moving on to the next step.


    “Here are the neutralizers, food boxes, and water. Don’t skip your meals and take them regrly.”


    “Thank you, really thank you.”


    “I’ll eat well.”


    “Thank you for helping us…”


    Suho sessfully tracked down every single creditor and drug victim that Changshik''s gang had.


    It wasn’t difficult to find them.


    With the help of Nexus’ personnel and Banshee''s intelligencework, finding people was a piece of cake.


    Of course, in between all this, Suho didn’t forget to check in on Im Changshik.


    “Recovery.”


    [ <strong>Recovery</strong> is activated. ]


    “Ughhh! Please! Please help me!”


    “Not yet, go back.”


    As expected from a high-level yer and a warrior ss, his life force was surprisingly tough.


    Suho had never intended to kill him, but the recovery and asional food, water, and a few doses of Fantasy were more than enough to keep Im Changshik alive like a cockroach.


    While Suho was busy with his relief efforts, his phone rang.


    Suho, seeing the caller ID, smirked.


    “Hello, Senior.”


    <ul>


    <li>Hey, Junior. How are you doing?</li>


    </ul>


    “I’m doing well, thanks to you. How are you, Senior?”


    <ul>


    <li>I’m always fine. By the way, I was thinking of holding a thank-you ceremony tomorrow. How about it?</li>


    </ul>


    “I’m fine with that.”


    <ul>


    <li>Good, then wear something neat ande to the association around noon. I’ll be there waiting after setting everything up. I’ve called in a lot of journalists, so make sure to put on a face mask before you sleep tonight.</li>


    </ul>


    “Alright, thank you.”


    <ul>


    <li>See you tomorrow, then.</li>


    </ul>


    Finally, the thank-you ceremony wasing.


    If everything went as nned, the special recruitment would happen right after the award ceremony.


    Suho immediately called Jo Jin-hwi to let him know about the thank-you ceremony tomorrow.


    <ul>


    <li>Ah, of course, I should attend. I’m sure PBS has contacted you, so I’ll go in your ce.</li>


    </ul>


    “Thanks, I’ll count on you. But, are you sure? Even though the view count is low, you still made such a special article?”


    <ul>


    <li>The world doesn’t care if the view count is low. It’s fine.</li>


    </ul>


    “Well, if that’s the case, I understand.”


    <ul>


    <li>Haha, it looks like your special recruitment is right around the corner. There hasn’t been anyone who joined Daehyeonhyup as quickly and as high up as you. Really, congrattions.</li>


    </ul>


    “Thanks. By the way, when do you n on uploading Part 2 of the article?”


    <ul>


    <li>I’ve been timing it. I’ll upload Part 2 today and the thank-you article tomorrow… But, by the way, this is a personal question, but do you not use SNS?</li>


    </ul>


    “SNS?”


    <ul>


    <li>Yeah, if you had stayed with Nexus, they would have asked you to create an official SNS ount. Why haven’t you done that?</li>


    </ul>


    “No, they never brought it up. It’s probably because of my job transition timing, but why SNS?”


    <ul>


    <li>I’m just curious. Someone of your caliber could have an SNS ount with significant influence. It would be a waste not to use it, you know? There’s even some disappointment in your fan cafe about it.</li>


    </ul>


    “Fan cafe?”


    <ul>


    <li>Didn’t you know?</li>


    </ul>


    Suho nodded, but the fan cafe he knew was from his past life, not the present.


    In fact, it was still too early for a fan cafe to exist at this point.


    Suho hadn’t expected it.


    “Actually, I didn’t know. What’s the fan cafe’s name?”


    <ul>


    <li>It’s called ‘Anshinjeon.’</li>


    </ul>


    “What?”


    <ul>


    <li>


    It’s abination of your name, Ahn Suho, and your ss, Healer. They even added a bit of a religious joke to it, calling it ‘Anshinjeon.’ By the way, the fan name is ‘Suho Priest,’ and they call each other ‘followers.’


    </li>


    <li>


    Wait, Suho Priests…?


    </li>


    </ul>


    In his previous life, Suho’s fan cafe was called Suho Shield.


    His ss was a swordsman, and he only started gaining recognition after defeating the Sword King.


    But now, the name waspletely different.


    ‘As expected, the history is changing.’


    And the scale of the fan cafe had already surpassed 30,000 members.


    Suho was astounded by the scale.


    “That''s impressive.”


    <ul>


    <li>Yes, we’ve already gathered 30,000 domestic fans, and the post generation speed is fast. The activity is vibrant. So, since you can’t engage in entertainment activities after joining Daehyeonhyup, how about creating an SNS ount? Fans would love it.</li>


    </ul>


    “Hmm…”


    In other words, Suho was being asked to engage in fan service.


    However, Suho had never used SNS in his past life either.


    He considered it a waste of time and a source of mistakes.


    Of course, he was aware of the positive aspects of SNS.


    Since he was a returnee this time, he thought he might give it a different approach.


    ‘I roughly know the parts I should avoid and the incidents I should stay away from.’


    With the Library of Memories, the likelihood of making unexpected mistakes was almost nonexistent.


    At that moment, as Suho was scrolling through the fan cafe, he noticed something suspicious.


    It was the fan cafe president’s name.@@novelbin@@


    ‘Golden Horse?’


    Suho had a fleeting thought, and then he asked.


    “Journalist.”


    <ul>


    <li>Yes?</li>


    </ul>


    “Just in case, is the fan cafe president named Golden Horse, by any chance you?”


    <ul>


    <li>……</li>


    </ul>


    “...No?”


    <ul>


    <li>Hmm, how did you know?</li>


    </ul>


    “Your nickname is Golden...”


    <ul>


    <li>Hmm, yes, that’s right. You really are sharp, Mr. Ahn. But the fan cafe name and the fandom name were chosen by vote. I didn’te up with it myself.</li>


    </ul>


    “Ah... I see.”


    <ul>


    <li>Yes, it was all strategically done for you. The guild didn’t make the fan cafe, so I, as the designated journalist, had to run it. That way, no controversies will arise, and the cafe will be easier to manage. Plus, if needed, I can stir up public opinion...</li>


    </ul>


    That wasn’t an inurate statement.


    Jo Jin-hwi was a trusted person whom Suho had selected himself, and he wasn’t someone who’d run a fan cafe for his own selfish reasons.


    Suho nodded.


    “That makes sense… If it’s you, I understand.”


    <ul>


    <li>Thank you for understanding. So, what do you think about SNS? If you’d like, I can manage it for you.</li>


    </ul>


    “Do you know how to do that?”


    <ul>


    <li>I used to be into it. I also run a blog, after all. Managing your ount would just be about posting big updates like on an official ount. It’s not hard.</li>


    </ul>


    “Hmm.”


    Suho had to admit, that made sense.


    As a public servant, he needed to be more cautious about his words and actions.


    “I’ll make an ount. But I’ll handle the management. Just send me the photos and the posts, and I’ll copy-paste them.”


    <ul>


    <li>Oh, that’s more than enough. And for the fans, maybe asional photoshoots or selfies...</li>


    </ul>


    “That’s a bit difficult since I’ve never done that before.”


    <ul>


    <li>Haha, it’s hard at first, but after that, it gets easier. Of course, I won’t pressure you. If you ever feel like it, I can help.</li>


    </ul>


    Alright, then, I’ll create the SNS ount, and when it’s ready, I’ll send you the ID. You can spread the word in the fan cafe, and after Part 2 of the article goes up, the aggro will definitely get pulled in. After the award ceremony tomorrow, you’ll gain followers easily.


    Once Suho gave his approval, Jo Jin-hwi immediately began outlining the n. It was almost a little scary how ready he was.


    Suho awkwardly chuckled and responded.


    “Alright, I’ll do it. Is there anything else?”


    <ul>


    <li>No, not for now. By the way, I just wanted to say, an SNS ount on Bestagram should be enough. It’s the biggest and trendiest one.</li>


    </ul>


    “Got it.”


    After the call ended, Suho immediately installed Bestagram and signed up.


    He then sent Jo Jin-hwi the ount details.


    A whileter.
