Chapter 946: Bipolar
“What?”
“No way!”
Both the siblings were surprised to see that Ning had pulled out 2 different SS-ranked mana stones.
“How is that possible? Didn’t you give all the SS-ranked Mana stones to Mrs. Kim Min-Soo when we were in the dungeon?” Hi-Ah asked. As far as she knew, the boss in the S-ranked dungeon was the only place where the SS-ranked mana stones could have come from.
“Is this really an SS-ranked mana stone?” her younger brother, however, did not care for its origin and only the item itself.
He looked at it with wide eyes, wondering just how strong he could get with that.
“Use your rings to improve yourself, but do it slowly,” Ning said. “Absorbing mana is the same as exercising. Do it at a constant rate and you will go far. Do it hastily and too much, and you will only injure yourself.”
“Thank you, brother. I promise I won’t misuse it,” Jung-Hee said. He quickly touched his ring and started learning the method Ning had put into it. Since it had only been 2 days, he had still not finished learning it all.
“I should give Uncle one as well,” Ning said.
Hi-Ah looked a little suspicious. “How many do you have?” she asked.
“Wanna see?” Ning asked.
The curious girl nodded immediately. Saphandra also flew next to Ning to see what he was about to bring out.
“Here,” Ning said as he revealed all the SS-ranked mana stones he had acquired from the SS-ranked dungeon.
Hi-Ah’s eyes nearly popped out of their socket when she saw the pile of mana stones that Ning was barely holding with his cupped arms. There were so many that some nearly spilled out of his hold.
“H-how did you get so many?” she asked. “There are over 50 here.”
“I got them from an SS-ranked dungeon I visited yesterday,” Ning said. “That was where I was gone all day yesterday.”
“SS-ranked dungeon? There’s something like that?” she asked.
Saphandra flew up to him and looked towards the living room before asking, “Where did Sorlus come from?”
Ning only smiled and didn’t say anything else. “Anyway, I will go meet the director for a while and come back for dinner. After that, I will have to leave. I don’t think I can wait any longer.”
“Okay,” Hi-Ah said and went back to preparing the food.
Ning teleported away and went to Seoul where he quickly arrived in front of the Dungeon Defense building.
He walked up to the woman that was outside the director’s door. “Hello, can you tell the director that I’m here?” he asked.
“I’m sorry, did you have an appointment? All appointments have been canceled for today,” the girl said.
Ning shook his head. “I have no appointments, but I believe the director will like to meet me anyway,” he said.
“I’m sorry. He’s really busy today. The tragedy in America is taking up most of his time. Please schedule an appointment for some ot— Wait, you can’t go in. Stop!” the girl said, but Ning ignored her.
There was no point in waiting anyway.
With a snap of his fingers, the door opened and he walked in.
Inside were a few people including Soo-Yun, and Lee. The director was at the center speaking with other various government people.
“I’m so sorry, director. He came in here—”
“It’s okay, Yoon-hi,” the director said. “You’re finally here, Ning.”
“Sorry about taking my time, I was a little busy as you might imagine,” Ning said as he walked up and took one of the empty seats by the site.
“So, what exactly did you want to talk about?” he asked, looking at the group of people.
“It was you, right? Out there helping people,” Soo-Yun asked from the side.
“Of course. Or are you saying there’s someone else that looks just like me?” Ning asked jokingly.
“How did you get there so fast? How did you get here so fast?” Lee asked.
“Simple Teleportation, obviously,” Ning said.
“Thank you for what you did in the USA. The US government has expressed to us their wish to thank you too, but that will have to wait until that mess is over,” the director said.
“Oh,” Ning said. “That’s fine. Tell them I did what was needed. I don’t need a thank you in return.”
“Are you sure?” the director asked.
“Of course,” Ning said. “Anyway, that can’t be all you called me here for right? I— Fuck off!!”
Ning’s sudden shout caught the people off guard, making them jump in fear. Lee was the one that was scared the most as it had been him who Ning had turned to when saying so.
“Wh-what did I do? I’m s-sorry,” Lee quickly said.
“No, not you,” Ning said. “Goddammit. I should kill them all and be done with.”
The people in the room looked at Ning and wondered if he had some mental problems. Maybe he was bi-polar, whose mood changed from happy to mad at any second of the day.
Ning’s mood had changed in a split second, but that was because the Constellations had found him again. It was likely because he was close to their bestowed powers, so they sensed him.
Ning wasn’t sure what did it, but the Constellations’ gazes disappeared after that.
The crowd wondered if they were safe, or if they were going to be killed at any moment there. If they were, could they protect themselves from someone so strong?
“So, what did you call me here for exactly again?” Ning asked.
The director wasn’t sure what to do with the current situation, so he did the one thing he knew best. He ignored the issue.
“Ahem, the Chinese government contacted us today after seeing your doing in America and have demanded us that you be returned to them immediately.”
“They are saying that we stole you without the Chinese government’s knowledge and thus you were duped into joining us,” the director said. “They say they will put an economic blockade on our country if we don’t return you within the week.”
