Overgeared

Chapter 108

Youngwoo was in a hurry. He wanted to meet the alumni sooner now that he was no longer in debt. ‘Look at 23. I’m a success. You can’t ignore or abuse me anymore.’ That’s what he wanted to say. He wanted revenge for how they laughed at and ignored him over the years.

Buaaaaaang!

23 drove on the roads, barely keeping to the speed limit. At this speed, he could reach the gathering place within 10 minutes. Youngwoo felt like that was too long to show everyone his changed appearance.

‘But… Why is the meeting place on the outskirts of the city? It can’t be reached with public transportation, so it is difficult for anyone without a car. Were they aiming at me?’

It would be very difficult for Youngwoo to go to the reunion place today if he hadn’t paid off the debt or bought a car. He didn’t have any friends to borrow a car from, nor could he use public transportation. Therefore, he would’ve needed to take a taxi.

‘Isn’t it too much to decide on a meeting place like this?’

Youngwoo was confident that he was the victim they were aiming at, since they laughed at him for so long. As he focused on driving, he noticed something and slowed down. In front of him, a woman was opening her car bonnet and sending a signal for help.

The usual Youngwoo wouldn’t have helped anyone without any benefits. But now was an exception. He was curious because the woman asking for help was an obvious beauty, even from far away.

“Look at that style and ratio… It isn’t a joke.”

The woman was wearing jeans, a white t-shirt and a black jacket over it. It was an outfit with no exposure. She also wore large sunglasses, so it was hard to grasp her appearance from afar. But he was convinced that she was a beauty with perfect proportions and white skin. He wanted to check how pretty she was up close. This instinct couldn’t be suppressed.

‘I became negative towards women due to Ahyoung, but… As a human being, I can’t ignore a woman having trouble in the middle of the road.’

Youngwoo parked his car next to the woman asking for help. Then he was startled.

He didn’t notice because of the woman, but the woman’s car was the S-model from Company C, which was four times more expensive than Youngwoo’s car. The model released by Company C for their 120th anniversary was very different from the 13 series because it targeted conglomerates.

‘A young woman with a car like this… Is she a second generation heir to a conglomerate, like in a drama?’

Youngwoo cleared his throat and released his tension. Then he got out of the car and asked the woman.

“Can I help you?”

She would’ve already contacted her insurance company. It wasn’t a normal car, so she would obviously care about it. Youngwoo wanted to leave. But the woman was asking for help, so he couldn’t leave her.

Then the woman took her sunglasses off, “I hope you will take me along with you.”

“Heok?”

Youngwoo was surprised as he saw the woman’s face. He was so amazed he thought his heart would stop.

“Y-Yura?”

The world famous rankers of Satisfy. Due to their frequent exposure in the media, there were few people playing Satisfy who didn’t know the names and faces of the rankers. They didn’t know the name of the US president, but they knew the names of Satisfy’s rankers. That was a well known joke among the users.

Among them, Yura was special.

She was the only female in the top 10 of the unified rankings. She was regarded as the last hope for Koreans, who had been power gamers until half a century ago. She was also regarded as one of the best beauties in the east and west. She dominated not just domestic, but international CFs, and was ranked 3rd on the list of 100 most influential people in the world.

Why did he come across a woman like that here? Youngwoo was very confused.

‘Does this make sense? No matter how small South Korea is, how can a coincidence like this happen?’

In fact, Youngwoo had a link with Yura. No, it was more of a bad relationship.

After becoming Pagma’s Descendant, he had a conflict with Yura during Doran’s quest. He failed the quest due to Yura’s interference and he wrote bad comments about her on the Internet to resolve his grudge.

‘Perhaps…’ Youngwoo assumed the worst. ‘She commissioned cyber forensics to track me down and get revenge?’

It was possible considering Yura’s wealth and authority.

‘No, that can’t be. This isn’t a manhwa… It’s a mere coincidence.’
