Godsent Top Star [EN]: Chapter 380

380. Gabriel Repays the Favor (2)

2022.11.15.

‘What?’

Before Yeonwoo could even react in surprise, the world before his eyes was filled with bright light.

The warm, soft light emanating from Gabriel’s body flickered for a long time before disappearing.

In the place where the light that had spread warmth until the very end disappeared…….

‘A sprout?’

Above Gabriel’s head, adorable dicotyledonous [having two seed leaves] sprouts had sprung up.

[35]

The growth stats also increased significantly.

‘I’m sure it was 28 until recently, wasn’t it?’

Anyway, the influence is accumulating.

‘Was Gabriel the source after all?’

In fact, even now, lifespan alerts continue to pop up in one corner.

Pretending not to see, pretending not to hear.

Perhaps because I’ve lived like that for over twenty years, I forgot for a moment.

[In the future, ‘Gabriel Elyssia’s’ influence will accumulate to the gardener!]

It was an expectation that was almost a certainty.

That phrase was no different from reconfirming that certainty once again.

‘I wondered why I was suddenly being asked to raise a child.’

Such a surprise gift was hidden.

Yeonwoo glanced up at the sky.

Those old geezers are always interesting.

“Thank you for… coming into my life… I’ll do better in the future. Continue to be with me in the future….”

In the meantime, Gabriel was solemnly and earnestly expressing his gratitude.

“Just a moment. I know what you’re talking about, so you don’t have to say any more.”

“This is embarrassing… I just… wanted you to know.”

“I know enough. There are many things you don’t know if you don’t say them, but there are also things you can know without saying them.”

Like your favorability rating, or your trust rating.

Things like that.

Besides, lifespan alerts keep going off in the midst of all this.

‘I’m losing my mind.’

What took his mind the most was Gabriel’s sincere confession.

‘I guess it’s just my imagination that it sounds strange.’

For some reason, I have a feeling that Gabriel should get down on one knee and present a small box right now.

‘Right. I wondered why it was so familiar, but it was a scene I’d seen a lot in movies…?’

Apart from the deeply felt gratitude, strangely, the way people around him express themselves doesn’t seem normal.

“If you’re grateful to me, just work hard in the future.”

Gabriel’s successful revival is a condition for clearing the mission.

‘Besides, this time, one more effect has been added….’

I never expected the effects of gardening to appear in this way.

“Yeonwoo… You’re a really deep person. I understand. As you said, I will definitely succeed and put your name at the very beginning of my acceptance speech.”

Gabriel, who seemed moved, said solemnly.

‘No, well. You don’t have to go that far… no, you can. It would be nice if you did, because you said the influence would increase.’

However, it’s not just because of the additional effects that Yeonwoo is cheering for Gabriel.

Gabriel somehow felt like a sore spot….

Regardless of whether the mission was successful or not, he didn’t want to see Gabriel, who he felt a sense of kinship with, fail.

With a determined resolve, Gabriel jumped up from his seat.

“I will become someone who is not ashamed of you, Yeonwoo!”

Leaving behind words that made him cringe and his hands and feet curl up until the very end.

Anyway.

‘Influence accumulates, huh…?’

The hidden effect of gardening.

It was an amazing additional stat that suddenly appeared after the sprout first came out.

‘The effect of the existence I raised having an influence accumulates to me….’

No matter how I think about it, there is only one answer.

‘Jackpot?’

A unique stat I gained from raising UTT [Unidentified Transcendent Type].

But I didn’t know it would become such a big catch and come back as a whopper in this way.

‘Should I do cage farming then?’

Just growing them in the garden makes their lifespan grow quickly.

Then it would be more beneficial to grow something more.

But I have no idea how much I should plant in the net, no, in the garden.

‘What is the limit of the garden?’

It would be difficult if the number of people I can raise is limited.

I won’t be able to bring in just anyone carelessly.

I will have to carefully select and find excellent raw stones [talented individuals with potential].

‘And in the first place, I don’t know if I have the ability to raise anyone….’

UTT and Gabriel are a kind of special case.

No one can beat lifespan.

For a moment, Yeonwoo was tempted by such temptations, but quickly grasped reality.

‘First of all… To do that, I need to improve my abilities, and there will be a lot of work to do.’

To lead someone, you must have that much ability.

But right now, there was something more important.

‘Anyway, excavation… If that’s the case, there’s something more urgent than filling the garden, but how will it turn out?’

Yeonwoo could easily predict it.

This Gabriel’s commercial will be an important turning point.

‘If things go well, things might work out more easily than I thought.’

A movie that had no choice but to be suspended due to casting difficulties.

Signs of a breakthrough were seen in an unexpected place.

And the opportunity came sooner than expected.

*

“Now is the right time.”

The person who said that was also a familiar figure to Yeonwoo.

“What brings you here…?”

“Ah, I signed a contract with him. I used to be swayed without knowing anything, but now I can’t do that, so I hired an expert.”

Always making the best results with a seemingly cold expression.

It was the very person who was familiar as Trevi’s publicist.

“Originally, I don’t take on anything unless it’s the best… But Mr. Gabriel is someone who will become the best in the future, so I decided to invest personally. Since Mr. Yeonwoo is with him, Gabriel will definitely regain his former position. That’s why I’m here.”

Trevi’s publicist, who had no blood or tears and even earned rumors from people that he was an artificial human or actually a living vampire.

The reason he changed his mind, who had once negatively viewed the collaboration with Yeonwoo, was entirely due to Yeonwoo.

He immediately brought the artist who was in a slump back to the top.

Not only that?

An artist with enormous abilities that the publicist could not even fathom.

Nevertheless, every move he makes is nothing but virtuous.

‘It’s not that there aren’t people who have achieved success like Mr. Yeonwoo, but it’s very difficult to find someone who has achieved so much success at such a young age and still hasn’t lost their center. Just looking at that alone is a huge advantage.’

Can’t you tell just by looking at those nearby?

Trevi, who achieved great success but fell into a slump.

Gabriel, who made all of North America fall in love with him at a young age but sank due to various mental issues.

‘Come to think of it… Both of them have the commonality of being saved by Mr. Yeonwoo?’

When you think about it, the publicist himself was greatly influenced by Yeonwoo.

The fact that he is in this position is proof of that.

His sharp eyes shone.

In fact, he was interested in Yeonwoo.

The thoughts of the past that he didn’t like at first have already left for Andromeda five trillion years ago.

‘But if I could only take charge of this person!’

How much more of a great star will he become?

He is already looking forward to it.

The problem was that this self-managed young genius didn’t need a publicist.

‘I can’t help it. Then the only thing I can do is support him as much as possible!’

Of course, Yeonwoo didn’t know this.

‘Hmm. The person is a bit unique, but his abilities are certain. Good. It will be a great help.’

That’s all he thought.

The publicist, who is more capable than anyone else but is also evaluated as being crazy about money, began to take action in earnest.

“Currently, the response to the public service advertisement starring Gabriel Elyssia is very good. It has already exceeded one million views in just four days since it opened. As you know, this is a very unusual result for a public service advertisement.”

Due to the nature of public service advertisements, it was really very rare for them to become an issue in this way.

But that rare thing happened!

‘Of course, this is best used.’

“I will spread this fact widely to the mass media. If the media covers it one more time, the ripple effect will increase that much. We can also leak words in that gap.”

The publicist’s words were similar to the method Yeonwoo had thought of.

‘So, in a nutshell, this is a public opinion battle.’

“If we start having our name mentioned in a bad way before anything is set up, it will only increase fatigue….”

“Our name will not be mentioned even in a single line.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to Yeonwoo.

“Like Mac said, people don’t necessarily need to know the behind-the-scenes story of Mac and the former investment company. The part we should highlight is a more fundamental field. Hmm. Maybe it will start with a column. If possible, I hope it is a media outlet with credibility and high public awareness.”

“I’ll look into it right away.”

“The title should roughly emphasize the feeling of independence and autonomy of Hollywood.”

“It wouldn’t be bad to include phrases like freedom of expression. In fact, many movies with that capital are being censored.”

“Good. Then we might gain unexpected allies.”

“Should we find those directors and list them up?”

“Yes. That wouldn’t be bad either.”

People’s mouths dropped open as they listened to Yeonwoo and the publicist exchanging words.

It seemed like they were having a normal conversation, but the content inside was definitely not like that.

“Is that okay?”

Mac Houston asked with his mouth wide open.

“What’s not okay? We’re not making up things that don’t exist; we’re just telling the reality.”

To be precise, it’s a bit different that they know but pretend not to know.

It’s just that they don’t intentionally tell them.

“That’s right. The right to know should be found in places like this, not in strange paparazzi news. It would be a problem if they don’t know that the culture they are so proud of is being sold for money, right?”

Gabriel intervened, having grasped the situation.

“It’ll be fun. If a large number of directors who were criticized for their terrible editing due to that capital come out, that side will probably be embarrassed too, right?”

“Yes, well. That’s probably the case.”

“It’ll be chaotic. If they get hit hard inside and out, they won’t have the mental capacity to pay attention to other things for a while, right? If they have any sense, they’ll be careful for a while.”

“That’s right.”

“In the meantime, we can do what we have to do, right?”

“That’s right.”

Gabriel grinned.

A smile appeared on Yeonwoo’s lips.

If Dongja Ryung had seen it,

[Those brats with horns on their butts…….]

It was that kind of smile, he would have muttered.
