The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player - RMLP Chapter 104: Yamtis Past (Part 2)
The enchanting rune’s real-world application proved exceptional.
“Miss Ye-dam! What time is it now, and you’re just co…”
The manager who once tormented Kim Ye-dam, now under her control after she resigned, crawled like a dog.
“Crawl like a dog. Apologize for what you did to me.”
“Woof, understood. I was wrong, Master.”
Ignoring the stares, the manager crawled around the office all day. The owner’s command was absolute.
“I thought my boss was so difficult, but it was surprisingly easy to make him bow down like this.”
Sympathy was long forgotten. Seeing the manager crawling like a dog, laughter bubbled up.
“Now, commit suicide. Get out of my sight.”
“Understood, Master.”
After that, there was no news, and she never bothered to see what happened to the manager.
“Haha, haha, hehehe.”
Kim Ye-dam’s laughter never stopped since that day.
“Anyone, anyone can kneel at my feet!”
In a moment, she went from the bottom of life to the pinnacle of humanity.
The once hellish reality was now bearable.
The enchanting rune was powerful.
Anyone, with just eye contact, could be controlled and made to grovel.
“Hehe, getting rid of that job was a good move. You can live without a job, right?”
Money was limitless, and even…
“From now on, this house is mine, so don’t come out of that room over there.”
“Understood, Master.”
Unauthorized entry into others’ homes and living there like her own was possible.
“Luring a rich man is nothing.”
She seduced a man living alone in an apartment with a view of the Han River.
While living in an apartment worth tens of billions like her own, Kim Ye-dam thought…
“The world is so unfair. We’re all in Seoul, yet some live in basements, and others live in the sky.”
She wasn’t blaming the unfairness.
Her position had completely changed now.
It was just a muttering of realization, acknowledging that such a high-class life existed.
“I want to live this way a little longer.”
To do that, she had to survive the rounds.
The problem was that the enchanting rune didn’t directly help in hunting.
“If only I could control monsters, hunting would be so much easier.”
But it wasn’t bad.
With players becoming meat shields, she could hunt more safely than anyone else.
After she used the players to catch monsters, she monopolized experience points by finishing them off.
‘It turned out to be very useful, huh?’
Thanks to that, she could grow faster than others.
In Round 3, she could even change professions to a tamer.
It was a job of capturing monsters and taming them. Since she couldn’t seduce monsters with her rune, it was the perfect job.
Growing through the rounds, Kim Ye-dam eventually discovered a drawback to the enchanting rune.
“W-who are you? What are you doing in my house!?”
“Huh?”
Somehow, erasing the homeowner’s name caused the enchantment to be released.
She thought that by deleting them from the list she would only lose the ability to command them, she hadn’t realized that being removed from the list would release the enchantment.
And once enchanted, the target could not be enchanted again.
‘Oh, so you can’t enchant the same target again after releasing it.’
After killing the homeowner and erasing traces to clean up, Kim Ye-dam sat on the sofa, pondering.
‘Then I shouldn’t release the enchantment so easily for humans I want to continue commanding, right?’
Realizing the new fact, she became more cautious with enchanting.
‘It’s a bit disappointing that there are only five slots.’
Still, the enchanting rune was undeniably incredible.
It was enviable, almost like having the authority of a district representative.
‘Enchantment isn’t just for players; it can dominate any human.’
Level or job didn’t matter.
Even against opponents stronger than her, it didn’t matter.
If you set your mind to it, even the president can be beguiled. Enchantment possesses a unique power—an ability to dominate akin to the authority of a zone representative, or perhaps even surpassing it. With the tamer ability, Kim Ye-dam could command monsters, placing every living being under her watchful eye.
Life became easier.
‘Feels a bit dull, doesn’t it?’
During this time, Kim Ye-dam stumbled upon a café named “Player Haven.”
‘The Player will change the world? I resonate with that slogan. A lot of players have joined the café too.’
Impressed by the café’s charm, she decided to take the interview test, only to discover it involved becoming entangled in a murder. But for someone who had already committed such an act, it posed little difficulty.
‘Hmm, if I excel at this, could I manipulate the individual who founded the café?’
Building trust, she ascended to a leadership position and proposed extending interactions beyond video chats to include offline meetings.
Ultimately, in the real world, she encountered the individual known as the “Chairman.”
“Oh, you’re the Chairman, the visionary behind the café? Greetings!”
“Hello. You must be Yamti?”
“Hehe, yes. Delighted to meet you.”
Sharing a smile and making eye contact, Kim Ye-dam effortlessly dominated the Chairman.
[Average person ‘Song Jaegyeom’ has fallen under enchantment.]
“Huh? Wait, an average person?”
While players were labeled as such, discovering he was an average person was perplexing.
Yet for Kim Ye-dam, the distinction held little significance.
‘Whether a player or not, I can control the Chairman of Player Haven at my whim!’
From that pivotal moment,
“Don’t address me as your master in public. Act like I’m an early member like the other executives.”
“Understood.”
Playing the role of a high-ranking official alongside the Chairman and steering the café,
Though LC Group fell slightly short compared to Osung, it remained a colossal empire.
With the son of such a corporation held as a metaphorical slave, financial concerns were virtually nonexistent.
“But Chairman, why did you create the café?”
“At first, the idea was to gather players since I couldn’t become one. Now, it’s about expanding influence and surprising my father.”
“Ah, attempting to earn approval from your father.”
“Yes. But before that, I must kill Ma Kyung-rok.”
“Ma Kyung-rok?”
“He’s the eldest son of Osung Group. My father always compares me to him. Hence, I need to eliminate him as soon as possible. If I don’t, I’ll be subjected to endless comparisons.”
Though she claimed to have enchanted him, it merely increased his liking from 0 to 100. These individuals also think and feel. Even under the influence, their existing sentiments of revenge and inferiority persist.
“You harbored a hidden agenda all along.”
Kim Ye-dam was well aware of how that felt.
She had harbored a desire to stab the manager with a knife more than once or twice.
“I understand how you feel. I’ll assist you in killing Ma Kyung-rok.”
“Really?”
“But only when our influence surpasses its current state. If we become so powerful. Ma Kyung-rok will have no choice but to join Player Haven.”
Kim Ye-dam grinned slyly.
“That’s when we will kill him.”
