The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player

Chapter 107: What's Your Name (2)

I cant believe I was kidnapped.

The moment Lee Seong-hyun opened his eyes, he quickly assessed the situation.

Recalling his memories before passing out, the conversation with the woman who brought him here, and being bound to the chair, all signs pointed to a kidnapping.

Of course, it was clear who had done it.

That woman. Shes the one who kidnapped me.

Given the force she used when knocking him out, she was undoubtedly a player.

Probably retaliating for the law I proposed.

Wasnt that why he hired bodyguards to begin with?

Those bodyguards are utterly useless. Worthless.

Then, it happened.

Sssnatch!

The cabin door swung open, and a man with a somewhat tan complexion walked in.

He introduced himself earlier as someone coming to rescue me. But whats his connection to that woman?

The atmosphere didnt suggest they were on the same side.

After all, she was begging for her life.

However, that alone couldnt confirm him as an ally. So, Lee Seong-hyun kept a watchful eye.

Hes probably not an ordinary person but a player.

Then, the man approached Lee Seong-hyun and extended his hand.

Startled, thinking it was an attack, Lee Seong-hyun flinched.

Tug-tug.

But all the man did was tear the rope.

Sorry for the delay in untying you, Congressman Lee Seong-hyun. I had to tie up some loose ends outside.

Loose ends? You mean that woman?

Yes, as youve shared, she is indeed the one responsible for your kidnapping. Ive taken care of her, so you need not worry.

Lee Seong-hyun scrutinized him with a probing gaze.

You must be curious about the situation. Ill explain everything. First, lets get rid of the body.

With the use of Erase Traces, the bodies vanished.

Hmm.

Lee Seong-hyun was initially surprised by this ability, but he quickly regained his composure.

You a player.

Yes. I know you might not hold players in high regard, but you seem a bit disappointed by your savior.

So, youre the one who saved my life?

Ryu Min nodded and proceeded to explain the situation in detail.

As you may have guessed, there are many players who hold grievances against you, Congressman. The group here is one of them.

Ryu Min artfully wove a narrative, skillfully blending elements of truth and deception. He chose not to overtly involve Player Haven in the scheme.

I received an offer from a player I typically associate with. Consequently, I came to know their plan.

He portrayed the rogues who had kidnapped Congressman Lee Seong-hyun as money-driven conspirators, casting themselves as the brave rescuers.

With intricate detail, he explained the plan, right down to the schedule and route they had followed.

Lee Seong-hyuns eyes widened as he listened. The level of detail in your story makes it appear genuine but

As evidence, Ryu Min presented the schedule he had received and their precise movements.

I harbored no ill feelings toward you, Congressman. I didnt harbor any negative opinions about the law you proposed. In fact, I regarded it as a necessary legislation for our current era.

Lee Seong-hyun felt an unusual sense of unease. Before him was a player who supported the law, in stark contrast to his own disdain for players.

So, I betrayed them because I didnt want someone like you to perish in vain.

The bodies I saw earlier

Yes, they were players who had conspired in the crime. I eliminated them all. If you wish to know their identities, I can provide that information.

To you, I must seem like a murderer. Well, I am a murderer, but I have no intention of surrendering.

Why not? If youve committed a crime, you should turn yourself in.

I cant imagine that youd want the man who saved you to spend the rest of my life behind bars, right?

Yes, turning him to the police was something even he couldnt force himself to do. Despite this young man being a player he held in hatred, he was still the person who saved his life.

What do you desire from me? If you expect me to revoke the law as compensation for saving me, thats utterly

Please proceed with the law. Maintain your current perspective. Thats all I request.

Frankly, Lee Seong-hyun was taken aback. It was the opposite of what he had anticipated.

He betrayed his comrades and saved him, and it was all for such a straightforward reason.

If thats all is there anything else

I desire nothing more. I acted according to my convictions, and like I said before, I dont oppose your law.

A player who supported his law

For some reason, Lee Seong-hyun felt a sense of embarrassment.

In any case, thank you. You saved me, and I will find a way to return

At that moment, the sound of approaching footsteps reached their ears.

It appears the police have tracked us down. I must depart.

Just like that?

Ryu Min turned to leave, disregarding Lee Seong-hyuns bewildered expression.

It was a pleasure talking to you. Everything you have witnessed and heard, you may share with the police.

Wait.

In response to Lee Seong-hyuns call, Ryu Min turned his head.

What is your name?

As if wanting to at least know the name of the person who had rescued him, Lee Seong-hyun gazed at Ryu Min.

My name is

With a faint smile, Ryu Min replied.

I am known as Black Scythe.
