Chapter 17: Did you clean your neck well? (1) Translator: miraclerifle

There are different types of artifacts. Most of them are helpful to humans, but there is probably no ability people desire more than the ability to prophesize the future.

This was the reason anybody who used an artifact with the prophecy ability had received great treatment.

‘The Future Diary is one of those artifacts.’

However, the Future Diary user could not get in the good graces of the monopolizers.

Why?

Because the Future Diary user was an idiot. In addition, the Future Diary that was a S-Grade(Hero-grade) artifact had a critical weakness.

Maybe that was the reason. It was true that Japan benefited greatly from the Future Diary at first, but the Future Diary user was assassinated by a different seer in the future.

That seer would go on to become a monopolizer and make his name as the < Monarch of Fate >. [1]

That was why he had not paid much attention to her. She would end up dying anyway.

However.

‘Things are different if the situation is going to be like this.’

It didn’t matter whatever that idiot did, but it was a problem if he ended up being negatively impacted because of her.

It was quite a terrible feeling to have someone read your every action and movement.

Because of that...

‘Let’s take care of the Future Diary now.’

There was no reason not to take care of something that was getting in your way.

There was also another reason he needed to take care of her now.

‘Chairman Kwon is tied to the Future Diary.’

According to the information from Abe, the TKBM Group was involved in the Future Diary re

Sasaki started to pout. She was disguised as an employee as well. She did it so that she could mark Ju-Heon.

“Do I really have to go?”

“You’ll be fine since we are right here. You need to look into the person’s eyes to mark them anyway.”

“But what if I get caught?”

“That bastard does not know your face. You’ll be fine.”

The soldiers who were disguised as sushi chefs handed Sasaki a beautifully plated sushi dish.

“Make sure you succeed.”

“Tsk.”

Sasaki started to walk toward Ju-Heon's room. However, Sasaki was frowning.

‘It'd be one thing if this was something Sosuke wanted me to do, but why do I have to listen to these ugly old men?’

However, she quickly put on a smile as she did not want to die.

Screech.

The door opened...

“Um, I have the extra dish you ordered.”

Ju-Heon and Sasaki made eye contact.

Ju-Heon and Sasaki's expressions changed for different reasons.

‘She’s here.’

Ju-Heon was smiling with murderous intent.

‘Eek, unbelievable. He’s more handsome than Sosuke!’

Sasaki’s heart was thumping in shock.

1. I chose Monarch over King because the term is used for both male and female characters. While this is the same word used in the title, Tomb Raider King sounds better than Monarch of Tomb Raiding... The difference in word won't make much impact on the overall novel, so I'm sticking with TRK as novel title and Monarch for these different titles for monopolizers.

2. Pyeong is a Korean term of measurement with 1 pyeong = 1.818 * 1.818 meters squared. 20 pyeong is approximately 712 square feet

3. 殺 is supposedly the character for kill
