    The inte is abuzz with the sensational news of Congressman Lee Seong-hyuns kidnapping.


    Lee Seong-hyun,  thankfully unharmed.


    Wow theyve gone so far as to kidnap a Member of the National Assembly.


    Are these yers in their right minds?


    It feels like the end of the world. Im busy leveling up in X-Martree.


    Lets not generalize and insult all yers. Some people see them all as potential criminals, but theyre just regr humans like us.


    Exactly! Lets stop the yer hate!


    We should just stay indoors. Those creatures will disappear anyway after 13 months, lol.


    I hope all those monsters get wiped out soon after 13 months.


    Public opinion has taken a sour turn against yers.


    This was a ring example of yers receiving a negative public image.


    However


    [Breaking News! The Hero Who Rescued Congressman Lee Seong-hyun Is a Fellow yer  Meet ck Scythe.]


    [yer ck Scythe Rescues Congressman Lee Despite Receiving a Prior Criminal Offer.]


    [ck Scythe: A True Hero Who Betrayed His Fellow yers to Save Congressman Lee Seong-hyun.]


    As news articles began to highlight that the hero who saved the Congressman was a yer, public sentiment started shifting.


    The person who saved Congressman Lee Seong-hyun is a yer?


    Is this article urate? If its false, itll trigger a petition to the presidential office.


    Its the truth, so we can expect a slew of simr articles. People can be quite naive


    Brace yourselves, yer enthusiasts areing. Not all yers are bad! Seriously!


    Why are you saying this? The article clearly said that they helped without any reward. I wonder if there are many sarcasticments.


    True, it looks like there are more people hating on them without reason.


    Maybe those making fun of them were the street vendors who got robbed by yers? Haha!


    But this ck Scythe person is famous among yers, right? Hes a beast who consistently ranks number one in every round.


    Whoa, really? That means hes a big deal, huh?


    So ck Scythe-nim made an appearance in the real world? Wow, this is huge!


    Theres a yer here too, lol!


    Who even is ck Scythe, are you his fanboy?


    As Yamti read through the articles, a smile spread across her face.


    Master, take a look at this. There arements praising ck Scythe.


    Really? Let me see.


    Ryu Min took Yamtis phone and scanned thements.


    While there were still manyments ridiculing yers, the overall mood seemed less negative.


    Who would have thought my reputation would soar just because I helped someone once?


    It should be enough if people associate ck Scythe with the hero who rescued Congressman Lee.


    Ill gradually build up my name value. Theres no need to rush.


    Ryu Min smiled and handed the phone back to Yamti.


    Oh, thank you, Master.


    Even though three days had passed since the incident, Yamti continued to trust and follow Ryu Min.


    Ill serve you as my master for the rest of my life.


    Certainly, having authority was pleasant.


    Especially when it could even tame someone with a personality like Yamtis.


    However, it seems that different people have varying levels of willingness to ept requests.


    Even though Ryu Min had told her not to, Yamti kept identally calling him Master.


    Could it be because of themand to be a ve?


    If you considered yourself a ve to the core and your owner told you to use informalnguage, could you easilyply?


    It must be incredibly difficult to be a ve.


    The situation was akin to a president telling an ordinary citizen to speak to him informally.


    Would they do it?


    Despite her efforts, the errors stemmed from viewing Ryu Min as her master. This led Ryu Min to reluctantly let her call him master again.


    I always found informal speech ufortable, so this works out as well.


    Externally, Ryu Min appeared to be a mere 20 years old, but he had lived well over a century.


    If we consider the time Ive lived, these guys are practically my grandkids.


    Ryu Min, gazing at Yamti, felt the need to caution her once more.


    Remember, you can call me master when were alone. But what about in public?


    I should call you Ryu Min and drop the formalities, right?


    Exactly. Keep that in mind. And forget that Im the ck Scythe.


    Yes, Master.


    As Yamti bowed deeply, Ryu Min did not urge her to rise, understanding the gestures significance in their master-ve dynamic.


    very is the vesfort ce.


    When Yamti finally raised her head, Ryu Min inquired,


    Did you speak to the chairman as I instructed?


    Yes. I exined that the ns failure was due to Lostyaks betrayal, as you said. He epted it readily.


    Ryu Min nodded in approval. ming the betrayal on Lostyak fit the narrative perfectly since he had attacked the chairman in Lostyaks image.


    Did you also pass on the other message I gave?


    Yes. As of July 9th, weve agreed to rece the murder tests with ones focusing on character.


    Good. With the change in regime, its time to set things right.


    They decided to halt the barbaric practice of murderous interviews, focusing on the yers characters instead of their levels or achievements.


    If someone applies to the cafe, have the chairman check their criminal record first. Reject anyone with even a hint of an issue.


    Understood.


    The interviews are sorted, but the real challenge is dealing with the current members How many are left?


    Over half diedst round, leaving about 4,000.


    They all passed the murder tests?


    Yes. They all participated in or witnessed murder.


    These are the ones who arent even worth killing. Deciding their fate is the real issue.


    A sly smile crossed Ryu Mins face as he pondered.


    Lets leave the trash to the janitor.


    Ryu Min always had a way to utilize even the waste.
