Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

“Sorry, you’re right. I shouldn’t be thinking this way,” the director apologized. “So, what should we do? What should I do?”

“Your first task is to find out who else can know about this, and at the same time contact every country on earth and tell them you have this information. Once you’re all there, I will reveal this information, and you can all use it however you want to,” Ning said.

“Got it,” the director said. “It will take at least a day to contact them all, maybe even more.”

“Take your time,” Ning said. “I have some stuff of my own to do. Once I’m done, I will teach them all.”

Now that he was done talking, Ning got out of the department of dungeon defense. However, before he could find a slightly uncrowded place to teleport away, someone came up to him.

He looked to the side and was surprised to see Lee standing in front of him.

“Hey, brother Lee. What’s up?” Ning asked.

“Is it true?” Lee asked.

“You will have to be more specific,” Ning said.

“Our gods. Are you really empowered by 5 of them?” he asked.

Ning smiled a bit. “What do you think?” he asked.

Lee became solemn for a moment before saying. “My god has only ever taken me in as his Apostle, and he prides himself in that. He says how others disperse their powers into weaker beings and ends up having weaker followers, which is why he despises having multiple apostles under him,” he said. “So, tell me, are you really telling the truth?”

Ning thought for a bit. “If you do know your god so well, why don’t you ask him?” he asked. “Surely the apostle he prides in can get an answer or two from him, right?”

Lee frowned a bit but otherwise said nothing in retort. “If you’re not going to say it then it’s alright. I didn’t come here expecting an answer anyway. I was just… surprised,” he said.

“Well then, see you later,” Ning said and walked away.

He went over to the place where the deeds to his land were. An employee there showed him the way and gave him the file to sign on. Ning signed the place and left his thumbprints as well.

Once done, he was now officially an owner of land in Korea.

He took the deed and went back to his uncle’s place.

His uncle and grandmother were beyond happy to see that he now had his own land. They were truly very proud of him and started saying how much they wished his mother and father were here to see it all.

In some ways, Ning wanted that too. However, it had been way too long for him without them, so he was fine even without them.

He was about to go back to Ely when his Uncle stopped him.

“Hi-Ah told me to tell you about meeting her guild master. Apparently, you said you would but then disappeared?” his Uncle said.

“Kim Min-Soo? Oh right, I completely forgot,” Ning said. “I was supposed to meet with her yesterday, but the Germany job took away my attention. Thank you for the information, Uncle. I will go there right away.”

“Also, both Hi-Ah and Jung-Hee will likely be staying at my place, so you will have to make your own meal,” Ning said. “I will send Saphandra and a few others back, so you most likely won’t be out of company anyway.”

“It’s fine, we will be fine without them,” his uncle said. “But… your place? You only got the land right?”

“Oh, there’s a house there already,” Ning said. “I simply got the house along with the land.”

“Oh, I see,” his Uncle said. “I would love to see the house.”

“Not yet,” Ning said. “We need to do some furnishing, which is why I’m taking the two with me. Once it is done in a day or two, I’ll take both you and grandmother there to stay with me for a while.”

“I would love that,” his uncle said.

Ning left the house and went over to the White Devil guild. He didn’t even bother with the reception and directly teleported to the top floor where he knew Kim Min-Soo was alone.

He knocked on the door.

“Who?” her voice came from inside.

“It’s me, Ning,” he said and waited.

The door opened with a sudden jerk and the girl inside stared at him with a confused look. “No one told me you were here,” she said.

“That’s because no one knows it yet,” Ning said. “I didn’t want to bother with the other folks.”

She gave him a weird look before stepping aside. “Come on in.”

Ning walked in and sat on the sofa in a comfortable stance while she went over to her desk close to the window and shuffled through something.

A few seconds later, she brought out a file and threw it softly on the table in between them.

Ning looked down at the file and asked, “What’s this?”

“This is what you came for, didn’t you?” she asked. “Your contract. I… assume that you still want to join the guild.”

“Yes,” Ning said. “That is why I came.”

He took the file and flipped it around a bit. His eyes moved through the file at incredible speed, reading through every bit of information on it.

“I see,” he said. “I’m fine with most of these things, except I won’t involve myself in these team-building exercises. My time is way too valuable for this.”

Kim shrugged. “That’s just there for formality’s sake. We put that in every contract. You don’t have to join,” she said.

“Well, if that’s the case, then I am okay with this,” he said and signed it before Kim could say anything else. She wanted to negotiate his salary and see if he liked it or not, but for some reason, he wasn’t bothered by it at all.

“So… are we done here?”
