The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player Chapter 23

23. Voting results

“Do you want me to come under you?”

Jo Jung-sik nodded in response to Ryu Min’s question.

“Okay. Then I’ll spare your life.”

Jo Jung-sik said that and twirled the dagger in his hand.

It was a clear threat.

Ryumin, who found the sight funny, couldn’t hold back the laughter that came out.

“Pfft.”

“Hey. What’s funny?”

Ignoring Cho Joong-sik who looked at him with a straight face, Ryu Min opened the inventory.

Sereung-

A huge scythe was pulled out of the air.

The dagger of the Joseon Dynasty style, which is shorter than the forearm, looks shabby.

“…….”

Jo Jung-sik swallowed his saliva without realizing it.

“You want to try it with me now?”

“Where did you get such a weapon…?”

“Kneel.”

Ryumin spoke again in a cold tone.

“If you kneel now and bow your head saying you did something wrong, I will let you go.”

“You bastard, I guess you still haven’t figured out the situation, so I’m the district representative for the next round…”

“Is it difficult for you to understand what I’m saying? Or will you feel better only if you see blood here?”

Ryumin’s scythe moved slowly.

Jo Jung-sik, who was unintentionally faced with a choice, swallowed a curse.

‘f*ck you! ‘Did I know you had a weapon like that!’

It is not just a scythe, it is a large scythe that is much taller.

Even at a glance, it was so threatening that it completely broke the will of the person trying to fight.

‘I was even prepared to fight if the situation came to an end… … .’

It seems like there is no way to use a dagger like this.

Jo Jung-sik bit his lower lip.

Because I touched the black scythe for no reason, this four moons came out.

‘C’mon… … I haven’t even become a district representative yet, but without even realizing it… … .’

I was so intoxicated by the thought that I was in control of the situation that I ended up touching the nose hair of the person ranked first.

It was an obvious mistake.

“Why isn’t there an answer? Judging by the fact that you talked to me, I guess you don’t know Korean, right?”

“…….”

“Have you suddenly forgotten how to speak? Then I’ll fix it so you can speak.”

As Ryu Min took the form as if he was going to swing the scythe, Jo Jung-sik said with a nervous expression.

“I am Jo Jung-sik, the boss of the Jung-sik faction. There is not a gangster in Seoul who does not know my name. Do you think I would bow down to someone like you?”

Jo Jung-sik, who had made up his mind, raised his dagger.

“Go at him with that good weapon, damn it. But you better go at him with the intention of killing him. Otherwise, you’ll be the one who gets his throat cut.”

In a situation where it would be normal to feel intimidated, he reveals his real name and instead takes a fighting stance?

‘Both before and now, gangsters are good.’

Ryumin laughed to himself.

‘Shall we leave the prank here?’

I have no intention of killing Jo Jung-sik.

I have no intention of hurting you for no reason.

We need someone to become the district representative, and we need to use him in the next round.

‘If I showed off my power for no reason, I would end up getting more votes than the breakfast and lunch.’

This is just the right level to not be defeated in a fight.

Just like we did in the previous episode.

‘It’s almost time for the angel to appear, so should we leave it at this?’

just as expected.

[Are you all gathered? Humans?]

As expected, an angel appeared.

“You’re lucky.”

Ryumin put the scythe into his inventory first.

There is nothing good about attracting the attention of an angel.

“Next time, choose someone and attack them. Unless you want to die early.”

“…….”

When Ryu Min turned around, Jo Jung-sik sighed inwardly.

‘ha… … I thought I was scared and fell.’

It was a sigh of relief.

‘Honestly, my pride is hurt, but what’s not dead?’

What you just said was just a bluff using bluff.

In fact, Cho Joong-sik also didn’t want to fight with the black scythe.

‘Whoa…’ … If you make a mistake, you could almost die, f*ck.’

Still, luckily, an angel appeared and the situation was averted.

I didn’t even show a servile appearance in front of people.

‘For now, let’s move on like this, but just wait a little while. ‘I will repay you twice for the humiliation you just suffered.’

What if the humans here vote for you and become district representative as planned?

There was no reason to be scared then like now.

Because it gives you a fraudulent authority called the right of command.

While Jo Jung-sik was pledging revenge, the angel laughed.

[Kihehehehe, humans. Have you discussed who will be the representative?]

“…….”

People remained silent.

I couldn’t tell if I should call it a consultation or a threat.

The angel, who was already looking at the corpses all over the vacant lot, chuckled.

[It looks like we didn’t just talk for three hours. The number of participants decreased from 5,143 to 4,988!]

More people died than expected, but they did not die fighting each other.

There were people who went into the forest and were killed by monsters.

[Whether humans die or not is none of my business. Then, shall we proceed with voting as planned?]

As I flapped my wings, the same message window appeared in front of people.

[We will now proceed with voting to select district representatives.]

[Voting is limited to one vote per person, and the player with the most votes becomes the district representative.]

[If the same number of votes comes out and there is a tie, the relevant player will be nominated and a re-vote will be held.]

[Then, from now on, look at the person you want to vote for and think to yourself, ‘Vote.’]

[Players who do not finish voting within the 5 minute time limit are eliminated from the round.]

[Voting time limit: 00:04:59]

As time was given, people murmured and looked at each other.

‘Look at who you’re voting for?’

People’s eyes naturally turned to Jo Jung-sik.

‘As expected, all eyes are focused on me. Hehe.’

It was only natural that he threatened to kill me if I didn’t vote for him.

However, there were quite a few people who avoided eye contact.

“Hey, there’s a lot of cheeks!”

“Huh? Me, me?”

“Why aren’t you looking at me? Didn’t you vote for me?”

“Oh, no. I did.”

“Don’t lie. I saw you earlier, but you were looking somewhere else!”

In order to get even one more vote, Cho Joong-sik intimidated people and encouraged them to vote.

After five minutes had passed, the angel spoke.

[It’s time. There were a total of 4,988 votes, and luckily there were no stupid people who missed voting! Then, shall we count the votes?]

After a while, a translucent window appeared in front of the people, and nicknames and numbers appeared in it.

Like a real-time voting chart, the numbers continued to rise and the results came out soon after.

<Results of voting for district representative selection>

1st. Life is a documentary (2,412 votes)

2nd place. Black Scythe (2,077 votes)

3rd place. Black Flame Dragon on the right hand (249 votes)

4th place. Cheek Bbang Jjimppang (6 votes)

5th place. Cute baby bird (5 votes)

… … … … … …

… … … …

Jo Jung-sik, who had expected an overwhelming result, frowned.

‘I only received 2,412 votes? Besides, the second place is Black Scythe?’

The difference with Black Scythe was only 335 votes.

It wasn’t close, but I was still dissatisfied that the gap wasn’t that big.

‘These bastards told me to vote only for me, but they secretly voted for Black Scythe?’

Jo Jung-sik glared at those around him, but there was no way to know who voted for whom.

‘I can’t help it. ‘The results are already out.’

Jo Jung-sik grinned.

No matter what the process is, as long as the result is good, that’s enough.

‘As expected, I became the district representative. ‘You’ve got tremendous power to control people!’

Jo Jung-sik’s eyes turned to the black scythe.

‘Even if he is strong, he won’t be able to win against 5,000 humans.’

If you order people to kill Black Scythe, they will eventually die.

‘pup. I’ll make you regret not killing me. ‘Tsk tsk tsk.’

While Jo Jung-sik was excited, the angel made an announcement.

[It has been decided. Documentary Life, which ranked first, was selected as the representative of the region!]

No one was happy.

This was because the majority voted forcibly out of fear of retaliation from North Korea and China.

The only person who was smiling was Cho Joong-sik.

“Hehe, now you all have to look good to me. If you don’t, I will kill you with my command.”

When I declared in advance that I would act like a dictator, a shadow fell on people’s faces.

[Then, as for life as a district representative, I will give Documentary the authority to control people.]

Soon, a message appeared in front of Cho Joong-sik.

[You have become a district representative.]

[I have received the right to command, which is the representative’s unique authority.]

[More information can be found in the skill section of the status window.]

‘Hehe, finally.’

Jo Jung-sik grinned and opened the status window.

[Commandership] was added to the skill category.

Cho Joong-sik laughed and confirmed the information at the fact that he had a skill that no one else had.

[Temporary skill – leadership]

-Effect: You can forcibly control the player by giving a command to the player.

The player may not disobey the order under any circumstances.

You can use it a total of 10 times, and when you use up all the opportunities, the skill disappears.

Only one command can be given to one player.

Please note that the skill does not work on players with professions.

The smile disappeared from Jo Jung-sik’s face as he looked at the information.

‘What is this? ‘You can only use it 10 times?’

I thought I could give an unlimited number of commands, but I can only do so 10 times.

‘Well, it’s still a powerful authority, but… … .’

I couldn’t help but be shocked because I didn’t know there would be a limit.

‘Besides, what’s the last line? ‘Are players with jobs not able to use skills?’

In short, as long as you get a job, you become immune to disobeying orders.

Of course, Jo Joong-sik doesn’t know how to get a job.

So I wasn’t worried.

‘If you don’t know, other people probably do the same.’

In any case, if you use your leadership power well, you can take control of the situation.

If you hide the fact that there is a penalty.

Best of all, it can kill the ugly black scythe.

‘X-arm bastard. I should order him to spit out all the items and commit suicide. ah! Now that I think about it, I heard that only one command is allowed per person, right?

Jo Jung-sik’s mouth was torn apart.

‘I’ll threaten you to hand over the items and then kill you if you don’t listen. Of course, even if you give me the item, I will kill you. Tsk tsk.’

The thought of being able to get rid of an ugly competitor made me laugh without realizing it.

But Cho Joong-sik’s laughter didn’t last long.

Because the angel said something unexpected.

[Now, humans? Since you voted, you probably think this is the end, right? But no. There was a hidden quest in this round.]

“What are you talking about?”

“Hidden quest?”

Leaving behind the confused people, the angel flapped his wings.

<Sub Quest>

└Change jobs before voting time

└Get job change items and get a job!

└If successful ▶ Receive a 50% discount coupon for today’s item!

“Huh? What is this?”

“Subquest?”

People were surprised by the quest that appeared out of nowhere.

I never thought there was another quest.

[There was a hidden sub-quest in this round. When you reach level 10, the quest window is set to appear like this… … You didn’t know, right? Kihehehehe.]

“No, there are no monsters, so how can I level up…?”

The angel looked at someone’s complaint with a straight face.

[There are no monsters? When you go into the forest, there are monsters everywhere?]

“…….”

[You can change jobs when you reach level 10 by hunting in the forest. If you catch monsters, you can get items needed for job change.]

“ah…….”

Lament flowed from people’s mouths.

I realized it too late.

That I wasted so much time so far.

‘Damn it, we shouldn’t be discussing and fighting in a place like this!’

‘I should have just gone into the forest and hunted… … .’

‘If I had done that, I would have completed the sub-quest and received a reward!’

People sighed, but regret is always too late no matter how fast it is.

[Don’t be too sad. Although the rewards are low, anyone can change jobs as soon as they reach level 10. Just aim for the next round!]

The angel who comforted the people spoke one after another.

[In addition, there are only 80,000 people in all districts who changed jobs in this round. It’s less than 0.01%!]

“80,000 people?”

“So many people have changed jobs…?”

Although 80,000 out of a total of 900 million survivors was certainly a small number, it did not reach people’s ears.

I just feel ashamed that there are 80,000 people at a higher level than me.

[Oh, now that I think about it, there is one person in our district who has changed jobs?]

People were startled by the angel’s words and looked around.

“There is a former employee?”

“Who is it?”

[Let’s find out who it is through the sub-quest tally results.]

After a while, people’s eyes widened when they remembered the tally results.
