"Toh and Wanhu?" Naika asked .

"Yes . "

"Aren't they the rulers of Macao?"

"Yes, they are . Do you have any information on them?"

"We do, but it's not a lot . One second . " Thankfully, the Myth Guild had something on them . "We really don't have much, especially since we were too busy with the Blood Prince…"

"No, this is perfect . Thank you . " I returned to my quarters with the report in hand .

---

"Swap, eh…?" Most of the intel was on Toh and focused on his random skill that pretty much gave him control of Macao . "That's right, now I remember . He had that skill, but I do remember that Wanhu had a random skill as well…"

I began to recall all the rumors I had heard about them in the past as I read through the report . I slapped my knee . I suddenly remembered Wanhu's random skill .

"Buddy!" Wanhu's random skill was discovered much later, as Toh was the more active one . "They made anyone with lower Stats than them their buddy . It was one hell of a cheat skill . "

While random chests were the Hive's signature product, the highlight of the auction was Toh's Stat point swaps .

"It was basically a modern-day slave market . " Toh would gather the highest leveled devas, learn about their Stat points and begin auctioning them to the highest bidder .

It definitely wasn't normal for outside powers to not put an end to this, but it never happened .

"That was thanks to Wanhu . " No one ever stepped in to even so much as tell them it was bad . The reason being . . . most of those outside powers were clients!

I noticed an intelligence officer had added an advisory comment at the end of the report .

[Do not trust these two . If an interaction is required, only trust contracts pertaining to money and items . ]

"Yup, definitely can't trust those two . " Anyone who stepped foot onto Macao would end up getting robbed blind of their golden rings and items . It was normal there . Sometimes, there were a few who struck gold, and so people still gathered like moths to the flame, dreaming of making it big .

"They invited me, did they?" The envelope held an invitation in gold lettering, inviting me to the 21st Hive auction as a VVIP .

"I wonder what's in the box . " I opened the chest the messenger gave me . "Ha…" The chest was full of items . "Item check . "

==[Hive Gold Coin (No Rank)

Gold Coins usable only at the Hive auction house .

One Coin is worth 10,000 golden rings .

Crafted item . ]==

There were 10,000 of the coins in the chest . "That's…100,000,000 golden rings…" The Coins were obviously worthless outside of the auction house, but right now, the auction house had to have some nice stuff . People hadn't figured out that the whole random chests business was a scam, yet . In other words, I could buy some nice stuff at the auction house!

"They spent 100,000,000 golden rings just to invite me?" I knew exactly who these people were and what they did . This was obviously a trap, and they used Gold Coins worth 100,000,000 golden rings as bait .

"So it's a question of ignoring the trap or springing it . " From what I could tell from the invitation, they were confident that they could turn me into a host . But I was pretty confident too; that I could probably resist Wanhu's Buddy skill .

"I've got fifteen days to decide . I'll make my decision after reaching 350 . "

I didn't head straight to the dungeon, however . I had just gotten out . I decided to have a nice Korean dinner with Shin and Ebonene before turning for the night . I purposely left out the part about the invitation during the dinner .

---

I had originally planned to take a few more days off, but I headed straight for the dungeon the next morning .

For the next thirteen days, I relentlessly slaughtered all monsters that were in my path until I finally reached my goal .

"Open Stats Menu!"

=======

Shaman Ko's Roulette Wheel still did not fail to give me 3 stat points a day .

"I've got 1,156 unassigned points now…" Now that my HP were over 5 million, I didn't know where to assign all of my points .

"I'll keep adding Shaman Ko's points to STR . The rest…I'll put into STR as well . " My VIT and AGI were high enough, and I decided to get my STR closer to 10,000 .

" . . . " My Stats were looking way overpowered for level 350 . If I actually showed anyone my Stats, I probably would never hear the end of it . I giggled to myself .

"I've got 25,388 Stat points altogether…" It should be enough to not fall to Wanhu's Buddy skill . I was a little worried, sure, but I did have Shaman Ko's Stats to rely on .

Shaman Ko's Stats got me out of hot water when I first faced off against the Blood Prince, and while I wasn't absolutely sure they helped whenever I was in danger, they still provided a small sense of security .

"Well, since they cast their line…I suppose it's only fair to bite . " I definitely was not going for the Gold Coins . I was going to teach them a lesson for foolishly trying to trap me . I definitely had enough money to…ignore…100,000,000…

"I should still spend it all at Hive!" I happily left the dungeon and returned to base .

---

"Huh?" As I headed for the base, I noticed a building next to Cairo's Store that was not there thirteen days ago .

-That's the Messenger Guild!-

The building clearly had the emblem of the Messenger Guild and was standing there, fully built .

-Was there one in Cairo?-

I didn't remember there being one . I continued past the building and entered the base .

That night, I met with Shin and Ebonene for dinner and told them that I would be leaving . They wanted me stay a while longer, but I told them that I had to take care of some personal issues, and that I would return if I had the chance .

"Then I would you to take this with you . " Ebonene took something out from his inventory . "They are Warp Scrolls with our base location recorded . "

"You will always have a room with us . We'll even keep your personal chef on duty here . "

"Thank you . " I placed the five scrolls into my inventory . "By the way, I noticed that the Messenger Guild has constructed a Teleport building . "

"Yes . They requested permission to build one in Cairo not long after you left for the dungeon . We graciously allowed them, as it would be a benefit for us all . "

"Ah, I see . " We stayed up a little longer that night, talking and drinking .

------

The next morning, I went over to the Teleport building . I had to head to the Hive tomorrow . I needed to complete all of my errands today before heading to Macao .

-They should have Seoul, right?-

I checked the locations the Messenger Guild had, and saw Seoul on the list . It was right next to Anton's Store .

Each trip cost 100,000 golden rings, but I now had more than enough money to spend . I paid the fee and stepped onto the platform .

I was teleported to Seoul in an instant, and heard the hubbub of a large crowd . The sight of a huge crowd of busy mortals and devas filled my vision .

"There're way more people here than in Cairo . " Cairo used to be a rural town, compared to Seoul . But now that it was safer, more and more mortals were beginning to gather in Cairo . It' would soon become as busy as Seoul .

I headed straight for Anton's Store . I was a celebrity in Cairo, but no one here gave me a second glance .

------

I went up to the skill shop and walked over to Sleng .

"Oh! Master Lee, it's been a while!"

"It has . Show me your skills . "

"Right away . "

==[Physical tree, Magic tree, General tree, Random skill (not applicable)]==

I selected the Physical tree and searched up Mana Conversion .
