20. Can’t I just make a new one?

***

“…… Is it really necessary to do this….”

People wearing all kinds of flashy clothes are standing on both sides, bending their knees.

A red carpet between them.

It seems like the path a movie star takes when going up to an awards ceremony.

The difference is that instead of having fans on either side, there is a man who looks like a king wearing a crown and people similar to the priests we saw earlier.

For me, a former hikikomori, this space itself is too burdensome.

The person next to me lowered his head to 90 degrees and said.

“Oops, my introduction was late. My name is Duke Bernandez, Prince of Benon Kingdom. I am in charge of guiding [Pogyu Soft Haejoa] At this entrance ceremony. First, let’s take you to the VVIP room.”

You’re a nobleman, but you’re a duke? His name is Bernandez Jeong?

This has no basis whatsoever….

The worldview is dizzy. Like Benongat, there is no end to the brain damage.

No matter what, they say they are in charge of guidance, so I guess I should follow them.

First, I followed the person who was talking about Bernan and stepped on the carpet.

“I’ll give you a brief explanation while you’re on the way.”

.

***

So the place I arrived was….

[Benon Academy VVIP Room]

“I will finish the ceremony as quickly as possible and call the chairman. “We have placed attendants outside the door to avoid any inconvenience while you rest, so you can call us at any time by ringing the bell.”

“Yes, thank you.”

The man who was talking about Bernan bowed his head and went out.

The only people left in this space are me, Jenna, and Azel.

As the name [Benon Academy VVIP Room] Suggests, it is quite luxurious.

It feels like a fusion device that has a near-futuristic design but is reminiscent of a medieval court.

To put it simply, it is a luxury version of the brain-dead design.

After briefly looking around, I leaned comfortably on the back of the high-end sofa.

I turned to Azel and Jenna, who were sitting on either side of me, and asked.

“Azel, Jenna. Is there anything uncomfortable? “Let me know if you’re thirsty, hungry, or need anything else.”

Anyway, basic refreshments and drinks were placed next to it.

But I told you to ask if you need anything more, so I’ll use it as much as I can.

“I’m fine!”

“Oppa, I’m okay too. However….”

Jenna frowned. As if he was noticing something.

When she tilted her head as if asking what was going on, Jenna continued.

“Can I come here? That… “Actually, I haven’t received a confirmation yet.”

Ah, that’s right.

There was a story I heard from Mr. Bernan on the way earlier.

After Advent, the sponsor can decide whether or not to sign a contract with his/her favorite character by mutual consent.

He said that only if I sign a contract can I give the children the ‘buff’ that I can use as a sponsor.

In addition, you can use a currency called [Jewel] To grow your buffs or help your children grow.

In a word, signing a contract with children as a [Sponsor] Means –

It was similar to being a player of a mobile game.

The difference from mobile games is that there is no need to run dirty gacha.

In addition, I am able to grow even though I am a player.

Anyway. Jenna and Azel have not signed a contract with me yet.

Jenna seems to have noticed this.

But….

This kind of consideration actually makes me feel bad.

“… Jenna, do you think I won’t sign a contract with you?”

The two did not open their mouths despite my question.

He sat up straight and stiff, like a private who had just been assigned to his unit.

I roll my eyes-

My body is shaking slightly as if I’m nervous.

No, in Azel’s case, he is completely shaking. She looked like a puppy shivering from the cold.

It was said that there is no set date for the sponsor-favorite character contract. Moreover, there are various types of contracts.

But even when I heard that explanation, I just passed it with one ear.

Because it was decided from the beginning.

I jumped up and looked at the two people and said.

“You idiots.”

Then, in your pocket, you get an identity card — roughly a machine that combines a wallet, ID card, smartphone, bankbook, card, etc. This is a device that all supporters who have looked closely at Metrion are familiar with. — Took out .

I ran the [Sponsor] App from the identity card as I heard in the explanation earlier.

The contract will proceed immediately.

Looking at it, there were all kinds of contracts, such as [Temporary contracts] And [Term contracts].

I don’t have any luck.

“I’m going to sign a [Lifetime contract] With you guys.”

Life contract. This is something that, once made, cannot be broken. It is a contract that lasts until it expires. A contract that cannot be broken by any means.

There are so many things we can do, and it brings me and my children closer together.

I heard that first-time sponsors usually sign contracts with conditions such as [Temporary contracts] Or [Paid contracts] That can be easily terminated at any time.

It is said that only after understanding each other’s tendencies in this way do they sign a life-long contract.

But, I don’t want to worry about conditions.

That’s right, before that.

“You guys forgot to ask your doctor too. How about you guys? “Do you agree to sign a lifetime contract with me?”

Because it said ‘mutual consent’. You should also ask the children’s doctors.

Both of them answered my question immediately.

“Oppa, there’s no need to ask that.”

Jenna made an expression that I had seen in videos before.

Cheeks pop. Yet, ‘impression’ was written in his eyes.

“Ah…! Bell! God! Contract! Contract! A lifetime contract with Joah…! I want to do that even if it means sacrificing my life! Yes! Yes!”

Azel had a crazy expression on his face. What can I say, she has the expression of someone who quit addictive substances such as narcotics and found them again before her eyes after a long time.

Uh…. It might be a little scary. Am I a bit like a drug to Azel?

I don’t know.

Anyway.

They both agreed. Then, let’s make a contract.

[Sponsor] Press the button that says [Life Contract] In the app and agree to the terms and conditions –

After going through the process, I applied for a contract with two people.

Then the two people also took out their identity cards.

“Agree!!!!”

“I agree, I agree!!!!!!”

Tiring─

─ Sponsor, Cheonwoon (Pogyu Soft Haejoa) has signed a lifetime contract with [Jenna].

─ Sponsor, Cheonwoon (Pogyu Soft Haejoa) has signed a lifetime contract with [Azel].

[Sponsor] A notification came from the app. It’s simpler than you think.

– It’s scary to think about it.

Wow—

Suddenly, two streams of golden light came out of my body and led to the children.

“Wow… !”

Jenna looked at the golden beam of light and then at me with an expression of admiration.

This is our official sponsor-favorite relationship. I guess this certifies that it has become a kind of partnership.

Jenna hugged me once again.

“Thank you…. Brother. I will definitely repay your trust. “I will work really hard.”

“You don’t have to say thank you.”

Because I already know how intensely Jenna lived.

I was patting Jenna once-

Wait a minute.

I thought it was really hot, but these golden light streaks had quite a warm energy.

… About that.

Jenna must have been thinking the same thing as me, so we looked at the sofa at the same time.

Azel was breathing heavily.

It’s been a while since I met her, but I’m already starting to get used to seeing Azel like this.

“Haa…! hahahaha…!”

– Means cancel.

Azel’s condition was worse than before. She was making quite an embarrassed noise, she was sweating profusely, and her face was completely red.

Soon, Azelle seemed to have lost all strength in her body and sank down next to her on the sofa.

Jenna tactfully brought out her water bottle as if she had expected it.

She took her water bottle from Jenna and handed it to Azel, who drank her water hastily and said.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry… It’s so, so hot, so stop. It’s become like Joa keeps waiting on me. Ugh, I’m sorry!”

“No, it’s okay. This is it.”

Who says anything when I take care of my daughter? I can wait on you all day long.

I rather welcome it.

As I smiled, Azel quickly answered.

“Instead, at night! I will serve you at night when the sun goes down! hahahaha!”

At night…

Serving you?

… It seems that language education is urgently needed.

“…”

Jenna’s body, which was in her touching embrace, also looked a little different.

Now that I think about it, her chest is a bit big.

This is even touching my body right now.

Come to your senses. She’s my daughter.

A man must not let anyone look at his daughter in a dark way. That-

This should also apply to myself.

That was when I raised my hand and tried to slap myself.

Knock knock—

“This is Jameri Mannequin, the sponsor of Pogyu Soft Joa and the chairman of the Benon Academy. “I would like to go in for guidance-“

Jash-headed mannequin? The name….

I said while holding back laughter.

“Yes, you don’t have to be formal. “You are welcome to come in.”

As I sat down on the sofa with Jenna Azel again, the door opened softly.

The chairman, with her bald head, came in with her head bowed.

“Greetings once again, sponsor. This is a gray haired mannequin who serves as the chairman of the Benon Academy. “I am here today to give an explanation to Pogyu Soft Haejoa, the highest tier sponsor regarding the Academy.”

Jaehyun wiped the sweat flowing from the top of her head with her handkerchief.

You must never offend your sponsor.

That was the only thought in his head.

“The sponsor will hear the sponsor curriculum separately…. “We did not provide a separate guidebook, so we are providing this to you even though it is late.”

Unlike other sponsors, Cheonwoon was summoned by Benongat in a separate way, so he did not receive the [Patroner Information Booklet]. Knowing this, Jaemuri brought it without realizing it.

Cheonun took the brochure and opened it.

I skipped over parts that had already been explained, such as contracts and worldview settings.

Soon, I stopped at a page that caught my eye.

[Daily Dungeon]

[Blacksmith]

[Tower]

[Kwanliso]

[Arena]

[Labyrinth]

.

.

.

“… “This is a real mobile game.”

I wonder how it will be implemented in an alternative reality. Moreover, it is not ‘content’ but ‘schedule’. They say they each do something over there.

“A lot of new sponsors say that. I don’t know what that ‘mobile game’ thing is, hahahaha.”

Jaemuri, who was laughing at the notice, wiped the sweat from the top of his head again and continued speaking.

“However, most items can be taken starting from the second semester. This semester, in addition to the sponsor’s main curriculum, only the daily dungeons will be conducted. An exception would be the tower experience at the end of the first semester.”

After listening to the chairman’s remarks and roughly reading the brochure –

This word is very different from the image I had in mind.

For example, [Arena] Was not PVP or anything like that. This is more about sports.

Does it feel like the Olympics?

There is a high possibility that towers and daily dungeons are not concepts that I know.

First of all, the Academy said they would provide detailed information on this, so I will skip it.

As I was flipping through the booklet, the secretary who came in with the chairman bowed his head.

“Sponsor, I apologize for interrupting. I have something to report to the chairman for a moment….”

It’s as if the secretary is giving the chairman a hint that he has something else to say.

Is it military service? You’re good at using pressure.

I nodded to indicate that it was okay.

“Yes, I’m fine. “You don’t have to worry about it.”

“Chairman, just a moment.”

Whisper Whisper—

The secretary whispered for a moment.

After listening to him, Jaemuri nodded and said to me.

From noble mtl dot com

“Supporter, Excuse me, but could you please open the [Guild] Section for a moment?”

“Yes, I opened it.”

It says [Guild].

But this is the same as before.

It seems to be a slightly different concept from the guild in the game.

If you really think about it, it seems closer to the dormitory concept in Sea x Potter.

Anyway, it seems to be a concept that officially allows sponsors to create factions(?) Among themselves.

“It’s no different, since you are the highest tier, I heard that many [Guilds] Are looking to recruit you. Although the official way to join a guild is by submitting a [Guild Membership Application]….”

The chairman paused for a moment and then continued.

“Unusually, we would like to offer ‘guild selection’ to [Pogyu Soft Joa] Sponsors. “There won’t be a problem anyway because all the guilds have expressed their desire with one voice.”

Guild selection, I….

“Let me give you a recommendation: At Benon Academy, there are five major guilds. These are the top 5 largest guilds….”

From what I could see, the method of joining a guild was similar to that of the game. Usually, for famous high-level guilds, you have to apply and pass a test or something to be accepted.

“All of our sponsors want to go in, but not everyone can go in. However, if you are a supporter….”

But I have never joined a [Guild] In any game.

To be exact, I have never entered the guild as a member.

Even if I make it, I will make it myself.

“No, can’t I just make a new one?”
