Han Dae Sung Returned From Hell - Chapter 94
# 94
094
It’s been two days since a very large gate appeared in the sky and disappeared immediately on the same day.
Although ordinary people were able to immediately return to their daily lives, hunter association officials from each country could not.
The same was true for the Chinese Hunters Association.
They could not ignore the appearance of mummy monsters and gates that covered the entire vast continent. Even if it has now been safely suppressed.
So, association officials began to work tirelessly to prepare future measures.
‘Please…’
And Jang Jeong-young, the president of the Chinese Hunters Association, put off all his duties for a while and headed to Macau like a gale in his private limousine.
If it weren’t for the emergency decree due to the oversized gate, he would have invited his son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter to the association dinner the day before yesterday.
However, the gate caused an uproar across the continent, and Jang Jeong-young’s family, who were traveling to the association, were temporarily stranded in Macau and stayed at the Mandarin Hotel.
‘I had to go out of my way to bring him near the association!’
Jang Jeong-young felt deep regret over what had already happened.
I never would have thought that an accident would occur at the hotel where my family stayed.
And zombies!
The gate didn’t even burst, but the person there suddenly turned into a monster and came out.
He heard this absurd news and said that nearby public security and clan members had gone to the scene, but he could not easily put his mind at ease.
‘Please be safe.’
While I was repeating the word ‘please’ hundreds of times in my mind, the limousine in which Jang Jeong-young was riding stopped in front of the Mandarin Hotel.
In front of the accident site, public security forces were setting up barricades among the rioting citizens.
Jang Jeong-young got out of the car and approached the hotel building, ignoring the police officers who were hurriedly saluting him.
“Ahhh…!”
Jang Jeong-young was astonished when he saw the lobby covered in human blood beyond the revolving door.
He asked in a desperate tone, holding on to the police officer nearby.
“What is the situation? Report the current situation! Right Now!”
“That’s it…”
It was a time when public security was taken aback when a high-ranking person, who was normally unable to even utter a single word, spoke.
The sound of heavy footsteps made Jang Jeong-young turn his head.
A white-haired man and a monster that appeared to be his summoned beast were leaving the lobby and exiting the building.
“You…”
The white-haired man Dae-seong and Jang Jeong-young were old faces of each other.
Of course, Daesung did not stay only in Korea during these two years.
I heard that someone who appeared to be a hunter entered the hotel immediately after the incident occurred, but…
‘I never thought it would be Han Dae-seong.’
Daesung’s skills were something that even Jang Jeong-young, who sat as the president of the association of a proud great nation, readily acknowledged.
Dae-seong Han Let alone why he is in China without notice.
‘perhaps!’
There was hope if Daesung had personally stepped up to the plate.
I hope your family will be safe!
just as expected.
“iced coffee!”
Eventually, Jang Jeong-yeong was able to discover his granddaughter, who had been hidden from view by Daesung’s tall body.
“Lily!”
“…grandfather? grandfather!”
They were the two of them who ran to each other first, without even considering who went first.
Jang Jeong-young, who was hugging Li Li, was almost relieved, but soon felt an indescribable anxiety and asked.
“Lily. What about mom and dad? “What happened to those kids!”
“…black!”
“Ah…”
The tears flowing from Lily’s eyes contained many things.
Even though Jang Jeong-yeong was about to collapse and faint, he hugged Lili more tightly, as if he had promised himself not to do so at least in front of his granddaughter.
A gloomy atmosphere continued.
Park Dong-hyuk nudged Daesung’s side and whispered.
“Don’t you think this is a situation where you can hand over the bundle?”
“Not right now.”
Daeseong, a cold-blooded Korean, also had the sense to monitor the atmosphere.
Of course, I had no intention of missing this opportunity just because it was difficult to talk about it right now due to the atmosphere.
‘I never thought the family of the head of the Chinese Hunters Association was in the hotel.’
I didn’t want to call it heavenly luck because it would have been a tragedy for them, with heaven and earth collapsing.
‘If I do well with this, I might be able to obtain it.’
At least you can’t go back empty-handed.
***
After that, Daesung had to stay in China for three days.
This meant that Jang Jeong-young, who had suffered a tragedy, needed at least three days to gain the sense of reason to talk to others.
And now.
Daesung was sitting on the sofa in the empty office of the president of the association, reading “The Book.”
Hwang Jun-young and his group parked outside.
After all, we can’t allow non-humans into the association.
Rattling-.
Eventually, the door opened and Jang Jeong-young and a woman in a suit entered the office.
Jang Jeong-young’s eyes were swollen, with dried tears.
widely.
Daesung put in < The Book > and turned his gaze towards the woman.
She nodded and spoke in fluent Korean.
“This is Ghost Ok, who will be your interpreter for the two of you. Please feel free to speak Korean.”
“….”
Since it was a place where two people of different nationalities met, it was inevitable.
Daesung looked away from the interpreter and looked at Jang Jeongyoung sitting across from him.
“You must be very heartbroken. Rest in peace.”
In Chinese.
Even at native level.
The surprised interpreter tried to laugh as if he were embarrassed, but quickly covered his smiling mouth, and Jang Jeong-young nodded slightly.
“Thank you. By the way, when we met before, he couldn’t speak Chinese at all.”
“I learned it.”
“It wouldn’t be that easy to master our language at this level in one year… After all, I am different.”
“Words of high praise.”
Of course, Daesung, who is busy dealing with Gate and Dimension Taker, cannot have studied Chinese.
Although I learned English little by little to the point where I was able to converse.
It’s not for nothing that I was reading < The Book > before Jang Jeong-young came.
< Power Information >
Communication
[Integrates the languages of beings within a 300m radius.]
The book had all sorts of powers that Ramish was thankful for.
Thanks to this, Jang Jeong-young’s words are heard in Korean to Daesung, and Daesung’s words are heard in Chinese to Jang Jung-young.
Jang Jeong-young, who had a dark complexion, gestured for the interpreter to leave and then spoke with a long sigh.
“First of all… thank you. I should start by saying this. “If it weren’t for you, I would have lost my only granddaughter.”
Jang Jeong-young added that Li-ri cried and fell asleep at his private residence.
“I heard the whole story. “That bastard, Moon Se-geol, stayed on the same floor as my family.”
“Moon Se-geol has a history of purchasing fusion ampoules using a fake identity and multiple brokers. “I came to Macau to catch that guy.”
“This is deplorable. “I am appalled by my own helplessness.”
Jang Jeong-young ruffled his gray hair.
“The president of a country’s association cannot even protect the lives of those closest to him. “What kind of ridiculous thing is this?”
“Don’t be too hard on yourself.”
“…Thank you.”
Jang Jeong-young struggled to lift the corners of his mouth and smiled.
I didn’t feel like laughing at all, but anyway, the man in front of me was the greatest benefactor of my life.
“But even a country like this cannot let the benefactor who saved my granddaughter go away empty-handed. “I want to return the favor and take the weight off my heart.”
“Is that so.”
“If there’s anything you want, just tell me. “Unlike in Korea, my authority in the Chinese association is absolute.”
A year ago, the man who stood upright and proud of the grandeur of the great nation has now shown endless favor.
There is no need to pay attention like in the hotel before.
Daesung immediately got to the point.
“Please give me the red blue pill.”
“Well…”
“You say you have absolute authority, so it would be possible for you to give it to me.”
Hongcheonghwan is an elixir invented by the Chinese government and the Hunters’ Association at a great cost.
As the name suggests, Hongcheonghwan, a bullet-sized pill, has the effect of permanently amplifying a hunter’s aura as soon as it is taken.
There is even a joke that a hunter with B-level qualifications becomes S-level if he eats Hongcheongpill.
Jang Jeong-young’s throat rang heavily as he swallowed his saliva.
“Did you ask for Hongcheonghwan just now?”
“Why do you seem to be hesitating? “Is it because this is an area beyond the reach of the absolute authority you mentioned?”
“That’s… no.”
“So what?”
“….”
The number of hunters in China is relatively small compared to the total population.
Nevertheless, the reason why China was able to have a high status in the International Hunter Federation was precisely because of Hong Qinghwan.
Even though there were only five, China had a monopoly on the technology to develop Hongcheonghwan.
Simply put, Hong Cheong-hwan represents China’s status.
Is it okay to hand it over to the man in front of me so easily?
Jang Jeong-young was embroiled in conflict.
But soon, I felt contempt for myself for having such concerns.
‘What are you worrying about? This man saved Lili.’
A thought suddenly occurred to me.
I wonder what would have happened if even my only granddaughter had suffered a misfortune.
I probably couldn’t bear it. I may have even thought of something extreme.
‘It’s not that I lack authority. If I want, I can give this man as many red pills as I want. ‘Then why hesitate?’
Even though Hong Cheong-hwan’s value cannot be converted into money, is that more precious than the life of his only granddaughter?
Jang Jeong-young didn’t worry any more.
“I guess my mind was clouded and I was thinking for a long time. Did you say you need Hong Cheong-hwan? “I will gladly give it to you.”
***
When Daesung returned to his officetel in Korea, a richly decorated jade shell was placed in front of him.
Click.
When I pulled back the lid, there was a colorful pill lying on the neatly wrapped cloth.
‘Is this Hong Cheong-hwan?’
He had only heard rumors among high-ranking officials of the association, but this was his first time seeing the reality in person.
“How can it be a bit shabby for a travel souvenir?”
Seong Chan-ho, who saw the Hongcheonghwan in the jade box, joked.
Chan-ho Seong: Among Daesung’s partners, he was the only man who had not changed from two years ago.
With a consistent personality, consistent appearance and consistent behavior, he has diligently assisted Daesung and Hwang Jun-young and his group.
This officetel, which was purchased in its entirety for billions of dollars, can also be said to be the headquarters building of this unofficial clan led by Daesung.
A place where Hwang Jun-young and his group, who have no social status, can relax and Seong Chan-ho can work in a dignified environment.
“Hong Cheong-Hwan… I thought it was just an urban legend, but it actually exists. But what does this mean?”
“If there was no meaning, there would be no need to be stranded in China for three days.”
“No, but. After all, you are the one who fights with magical power. Well, you need ether to use that damn power or something…” Magical
power is needed to implement hell’s skills and items, and ether must be consumed to use the power of the soul.
And Daesung’s main focus is on ‘hell’.
Of course, Seong Chan-ho is using his power wisely, but he wonders whether it is necessary to strengthen it by eating Hongcheonghwan.
furthermore.
“They say if you eat this wrong, you’ll get sick. “I heard you’ll be suffering for at least a month, bleeding up and down.”
This is another urban legend about Hong Cheong-hwan.
However, as long as Hong Cheong-Hwan existed, there was a high probability that the story was true.
“What I mean is, is it worth taking that risk? “Daeseong.”
“Why am I eating this?”
“what?”
“You’re right. “There is something to be gained from taking Hongcheong pills, but there is also a lot of burden to endure in return.”
It was not Hong Cheong-hwan that he brought to eat himself in the first place.
then?
Seong Chan-ho asked, unable to understand the true meaning of those words.
“Then what are you going to do with it….”
“I’m going to sell it.”
“eight…! Are you sane? “Where can I sell something that I can’t buy even if I pay a thousand gold?”
“To be exact, it’s barter.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Wouldn’t it be a win-win if I get something that I couldn’t buy for a thousand dollars?”
Are you tired of a series of words that reveal only the context? Seong Chan-ho left as if telling him to take care of it.
At this time, Daesung spoke to a being that only his eyes could see.
‘Fly.’
[Have you called me, my lord?]
It was the Butterfly Girl who was like a window that allowed him to use the heavenly system.
Two years ago, I called her ‘Nalfly’, but she said it was okay, but as her complexion was getting darker, I gave her the name ‘Fly’ out of pity.
‘Call the merchant.’
[I will do as you command.]
As soon as the words fell, Fly summoned a store window with his fern-like hand and pressed the ‘Call’ button displayed in the upper right corner.
Except for ‘purchase’ and ‘sell’, ‘opening’, ‘closing’ and ‘calling’ of the store window were only possible for Fly, the entity that directly activates the heavenly system.
at that time.
[I, Amita, send greetings to our customers on behalf of ‘Heavenly Chamber of Commerce.’ What brought you to our store today?]
A loud voice was heard first, and a golden beam of light gathered next to Fly.
The beam of light that quickly took shape suddenly took on the appearance of a human being, but the eyes, nose, and mouth looked blurry like a ghost.
As I performed the Pantheon’s quest several times over the past two years and killed the Celestial Transcendant, the store window was also updated several times.
Calling a merchant in the store window with ‘Call’ was also one of the new features introduced in the update.
‘Because I have some things to trade.’
[Aha, it’s a deal. By that, do you mean the price to be paid for the reorganization of the store window?]
‘Yes.’
The store window has also evolved through Celestial system updates.
As the reorganization continued, items and skills that could not be purchased were gradually unlocked.
But at some point. No matter how many times I tried to catch the Heavenly Transcendant, the reorganization did not proceed.
Instead, a button called ‘Call’ was created, making it possible to call merchants of ‘Heavenly Store’.
‘Practical managers of shop windows. ‘You have to pay the price they deserve to upload the store window again.’
They put out stolen goods in store windows and made demands.
If you want to use a better store window, pay for it.
Of course, you couldn’t win their favor just by paying them anything in return.
[As you may have heard from previous merchants, in order for us to meet your demands, we must receive at least a price that falls into the ‘high’ category. Because this is the regulations of our business association. [Perhaps…]
‘I guess you called because you were ready?’
[Hehe, that’s true too. Then, shall we take a look?]
As if he had been waiting for those words, Daeseong immediately took the red tablets from the jade box and handed them to Amitabha.
Amita craned her neck to look at it closely and said.
[Ah, I’m saying this out of anger, but if it’s a matter of fairness, you don’t have to worry. We have a pretty good eye. Just by looking at it, you can figure out how many of these items there are in the world and how much they are worth.]
‘Okay. So what do you think of that insight?’
[It is not lacking at all to be of ‘upper’ rank.] It is
desirable, no, the proper answer would be to say so.
Since there are only five pills in the world, it would be strange that it is not a high-quality product.
[In terms of rarity, it’s probably one of the best things I’ve seen so far, right? If you convert it into points, 10 million is easy-.]
‘I’m not interested in points. Anyway, this means that reform is possible, right?’
[Yes, yes. Is there any possibility? I’ll do it right away.]
The moment Hong Cheong-hwan in Dae-seong’s hand disappeared.
-Ding.
Numerous system messages obscured his vision.
[‘Heavenly Store’ begins major repair work on the ‘Heavenly Store Window’.] [‘Heavenly Store
Window’ has been updated to 2.2ver.]
[2.2 Update Details:
1. Increase in the number of purchasable items and 20% discount on the sales price of ‘lower’ grade items.
2. Increased purchaseable skill items and a 10% discount on the selling price of ‘Medium’ series skills.
3. Improved ‘Information Purchase’ function.]
[You can preview the next update now. Would you like to take a look? Yes No.
* Even if it is not now, you can check it at any time through ‘Call’.]
1 and 2 were good.
What is important is what is written in item ‘3’.
Improved functionality of ‘Information Purchase’.
This is also the reason why Daesung was obsessed with this update, even offering Hongcheonghwan.
Until now, items and skill items have shown consistent changes, but the ‘information’ item has remained the same.
‘Knowledge is power. This is an eternal truth that is applicable in every world.’
Without replying to Amita’s words that he would just leave, Daesung opened the ‘Information’ section of the store window.
and.
“Oh…”
Daesung looked at the hologram in front of him and was slightly amazed.
surely.
Because the content written in the hologram had the value of being described as ‘improvement’.
