Dimensional Sovereign Chapter 48:
Chapter 48: Becoming a Building Owner in Gangnam (3)
Kang-jun looked at the map and asked .
"The buildings are quite far away . Why are they suspicious?”
“The ghosts and I are unable to access them . In that case, it is likely to be a sovereign’s territory . ”
A sovereign affected both reality and Hwanmong, so Colt’s words weren’t wrong . Ghosts also weren’t permitted to access Kang-jun’s territory .
Colt continued .
"In case an enemy sovereign investigates, I told my subordinates to report if any suspicious ghosts comes near Lord’s area . ”
"That's good . By the way, are there no other suspicious places except for these ones?”
Colt scratched his head .
"The inferior ghosts can’t investigate seven storey or higher buildings . Therefore, we only surveyed the six storey or less buildings located nearby . ”
"Six storeys?”
“Yes . If Hayun-nim goes directly then she might be able to investigate more . ”
Hayun who was listening nodded .
"Then I will investigate the seven storey or higher buildings . ”
Colt continued with a worried expression .
"But the buildings with more than 10 floors are impossible to approach . If there is a strong presence then you might not be able to come back . ”
"A strong presence?"
“It is unknown if there is a dragon, demon or equivalent strength creature there . You should be careful . "
Kang-jun nodded .
"Hayun, only investigate up to the 10 storey buildings . I will investigate the others later . ”
“Yes . ”
Hayun smiled .
Kang-jun headed to meet Kim Seok-cheol, the realtor on the 1st floor of the Dafeng building .
“Oh! Welcome, Boss-nim . Sit over here . It is amazing that you became the landlord . ”
Kim Seok-cheol greeted Kang-jun with a smile . He was normally kind to Kang-jun, but today he was even friendlier .
Kim Seok-cheol was one of the tenants of Dafeng building .
Han Yeon-soo had informed him that Kang-jun had become the landlord .
Since the lease contract automatically came to him, the rent for the next month was deposited into Kang-jun’s account .
Was that why he became more friendly?
"I don’t know if I dropped by too late . ”
“No . Please stop by at any time . ”
"I came to see some advertised buildings . ”
Kang-jun pointed to some buildings on the screen .
Kim Seok-cheol looked at it for a moment before replying .
"Seyoung building, Cheongdo building, Edan building! All of these are owned by one person . The total value is 30 billion won . ”
“Who is it? That person . ”
Kang-jun’s expression stiffened . The owners of the suspicious buildings were all the same person .
If they were a sovereign, they would be a formidable opponent .
The value of the three buildings was 30 billion .
"Yoo Seung-hwan is a great person . It is rumoured that he has over 100 billion in stocks and bonds . ”
"100 billion . That is enormous . ”
"But recently, it seems like he has become interested in real estate . The Seyoung building was originally owned by him, but he bought the Cheongdo and Edan buildings only a few days ago . ”
‘He bought the buildings a few days ago? Both of them?’
Of course, it wasn’t strange for a person who had hundreds of billions of won to be interested in real estate .
In other words, it was too early to conclude that he was a sovereign just because he bought two buildings .
However, what if the ghosts didn’t have access to the buildings?
He was highly likely to be a sovereign .
Kim Seok-cheol continued making a fuss .
"He also seems interested in the 10 storey Wonil building .
“ . . . . . . !”
Rich people really were different . He was trying to buy a 10 storey building .
"He is famous for his self-management, such as no drinking, no smoking and working hard . He has also appeared on TV . ”
Kang-jun nodded .
"He is definitely a great person . ”
“Yes . In fact, it is said that he is wildly popular in the stocks market . He is lucky . Anyway, I don't have any stocks . There is only real estate . Hahat! Does Boss-nim have any stocks?”
“No . I haven’t invested in any stocks yet . ”
“Haha! It is like that . The best money comes from real estate . ”
"Anyway, today was a good conversation . Then I will come again . ”
"Yes, go take a look . Whenever you are ready to buy a building, please leave it to me . ”
"Of course . "
Kang-jun left the realtor’s office .
'Yoo Seung-hwan . ’
A man in his 50s with more than 100 billion won .
Moreover, it was rumoured that he was thoroughly focused on self-management .
If such a person was a sovereign then he would be incomparable to Jung Kwang-hyeon .
Of course, rumours were rumours .
It was unknown if he was actually good at self-management .
However, it was certain that he had enormous funds .
That was obvious now that he was spending a lot to buy buildings .
Owning buildings was more beneficial in Hwanmong .
‘Damn! He is clearly a sovereign . ’
In any case, he was a tycoon class sovereign . If possible, Kang-jun shouldn’t show up on his radar right now .
If he grasped his identity then Kang-jun might be overwhelmed .
Having money didn’t mean unconditional victory .
Kang-jun, who lived in a goshiwon for 250,000 a month, beating Jung Kwang-hyeon who had 10 billion won proved it .
Therefore, Kang-jun wasn’t afraid of Yoo Seung-hwan no matter how much money he had .
It was important to buy buildings in reality, however raising his level in Hwanmong was more significant .
He needed to become overwhelmingly strong!
Kang-jun decided to occupy all the nearby low-rise buildings after entering Hwanmong . His level would rise in the meantime .
‘I’ll have to keep watching him . ’
The next evening at 10 p . m .
It was finally time to enter the world of Hwanmong .
Kang-jun fell asleep while listening to Hayun’s lullaby .
[You have entered the world of Hwanmong . ]
As always, the space was both familiar and unfamiliar after entering Hwanmong .
This time was even more so .
The house on the 5th floor of the Yugang building had been greatly expanded .
It was a gorgeous interior when compared to waking up in the shoddy goshiwon .
[This is your territory . ]
[Sovereign Herod’s base has been destroyed so you need to create a new base . ]
[Would you like to create a base? Yes/No]
‘Yes! Create . ’
Kang-jun instantly accepted .
[Stage 1 base is being constructed . . . ]
[Stage 1 base is complete . ]
'Why is it so fast?’
The base was completed in an instant .
Not only that .
[282 nodes have been received as tax for the basement area . ]
[681 nodes have been received as tax for the 1st floor . ]
[420 nodes have been received as tax for the 2nd floor . ]
It went up to the 4th floor and there were approximately 2,000 nodes stacked .
This was the privilege of being a sovereign with his own building .
[Three barracks that have reached stage 3 have been discovered in your territory . ]
[They will switch to a friendly base . ]
[A research institute has been discovered in your territory . ]
[It will switch to a friendly base . ]
The barracks and research institute left behind were automatically owned by Jung Kwang-hyeon .
As a result, the troops available at his barracks increased to 90 .
[You can build a stage 1 barrier at the entrance to Yugang building . ]
[The resources consumed will be 200 nodes . ]
[You can build a stage 1 workshop in the basement of the Yugang building . ]
[The resources consumed will be 200 nodes and 1 Essence of Earth . ]
[You can built a stage 1 rest area on the 3rd floor of the Yugang building . ]
[The resources consumed will be 100 nodes and 1 Essence of Wind . ]
'What?’
Numerous messages appeared .
New construction projects were possible in the territory that he owned .
“Lord! It was a really wonderful victory . Congratulations, Lord!”
The blue-haired Keirun came running . He had been waiting at the Dafeng building and came running over after Kang-jun arrived .
Kang-jun grinned .
"Welcome, Keirun . I’ve heard of the barrier and workshop, but what is a rest area?”
"A rest area is a place where everyone can relax . Lord can also relax there . If you have the resources then you should definitely make it . ”
"Okay . Then I will delegate this base to you . ”
"Yes, Lord . I prepared the Essence of Earth for situations like this . The workshop and rest areas will be constructed immediately . Then if we have enough resources, the barrier will be upgraded to stage three . ”
Keirun continued .
“In addition, the Dafeng building has received 1,400 nodes . I also plan to raise its barrier to stage three . ”
“Huhu, okay . You are doing very well . Then I will leave it to you . ”
Kang-jun smiled and nodded . As he was about to leave, Keirun asked him with surprise .
"Where are you going, Lord?”
"Where do you think? I am going to fight . Take care of the matters here . ”
He didn’t intend to be complacent with just two buildings .
Kang-jun was going to become stronger .
Keirun smiled .
"I understand, as expected of Lord . Please be careful . Try to only attack the low-rise buildings nearby . ”
"Of course . And watch the Seyoung, Cheongdo and Edan buildings carefully . "
Kang-jun told Keirun the information he discovered in reality . Keirun’s expression stiffened .
"It is very likely that Yoo Seung-hwan is a sovereign . We should be careful not to catch his attention, and to raise our strength as much as possible . ”
"I will do that . Then take care . ”
"Yes, Lord! Don’t worry about the bases . ”
Kang-jun exited the Yugang building and heard cheering .
"Kuahaha! Lord! Have you come out?”
"Germuz, help Keirun with the bases while I’m not here . ”
"Please take me . I would like to help Lord . I will be stubbornly waiting .
"I will call you if it is necessary . You should be here so that I can fight with confidence . ”
"Yes, Lord . I will follow your words . ”
There was nothing he could do so Germuz bowed .
It was at that moment .
“The enemy!”
“The enemy has appeared . ”
The giant ratian warriors standing guard hurriedly exclaimed .
‘Enemy?’
At that moment, he saw strange things approaching the Yugang building .
They were two spherical bodies floating in the air!
They were monsters with the same shape as the kajel he faced last time .
"What? These guys? They aren’t dead?”
The spherical bodies didn’t approach Kang-jun and shouted from afar .
“Sovereign Lucan! We came to reclaim the debt . "
"The debt?"
"It is the debt left behind by Herod . He promised to give us 10,000 nodes in exchange for our help . ”
That was it . Kang-jun had been wondering why they suddenly appeared .
“Why are you telling me this?”
"Kukuku, it is only natural that you have to pay back the debt that Herod left behind . We want peace . We will go away if you give us the 10,000 nodes . ”
