I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 162
Episode 163
Meanwhile, in the office of the president of Korea’s Daehan Group, there was tension like a sheet of thin ice.
“Have you received any contact from outside?”
“…doesn’t exist.”
After all the dungeons in Korea were closed, the president screamed like a crazy person and went on a rampage, breaking furniture.
But that only
lasted for a moment. Now, he was so depressed that he seemed to have no energy to shout.
“You bastards. Now go to the dungeon.” “You’re saying they won’t let you into their game because there is no way, right? You treacherous bastards.”
The president, who let out a swear word like a whiner, sank into his chair.
Secretary Eom wanted to retort with the swear words, but since she had the experience of being hit for no reason, she remained silent.
“Is there any other news?”
“Dissatisfaction is growing within the guild.”
“dissatisfaction?”
“The entire dungeon raid schedule has disappeared…”
Secretary Eom’s sentence was cut off by the president’s nameplate suddenly flying at her head. The
metal nameplate that passed over her shoulder rolled around with a dull sound.
If something like that hits your head, it won’t end up hurting you. In an instant ,
cold sweat broke out on the bridge of Secretary Eom’s nose.
“There is no dungeon! A dungeon! What the hell are you asking me to do!”
In response to the hysterical shouts of the president, Secretary Eom muttered to himself,
‘I said that for no reason. Damn it.’
The power of the Korean guild was established by monopolizing dungeons.
However, now that the dungeons to monopolize had disappeared, the hunters who had been paying attention began to raise their voices one by one. In
fact, as all the dungeons were closed, difficult issues such as escaped farm slaves and worsening guild profitability were raised. Everyone still had to report, but Secretary Eom lost his motivation in an instant.
While everyone was just keeping their heads down and watching, it was time for the president to have a fit again. He threw everything he could
get his hands on, including the pen, ink, and teacup, on the desk and broke it.
Hysterical shouts were sprinkled on top of it like seasoning:
“Not like that! Did I say you need that kind of news?”
“no.”
“Damn Chairman Kim, how much can that bastard laugh at? Do you guys have any pride?”
To be honest, Secretary Eom didn’t care.
However, Daehan Group’s second son, President Kim’s long-standing inferiority complex was a well-known story within the group, so he just bowed his head.
“The Chairman didn’t say anything special.”
Chairman Kim of the Daehan Group.
And his second son, President Kim. The
previous chairman of the Daehan Group managed to take over the group after a long succession competition.
The process was so painful that he encouraged his children from the beginning to prevent such succession friction. His position was firmly established.
The eldest son’s name was the eldest son who would be raised as the head of Chairman Kim’s group, and the second son’s name was President Kim, and he was raised as the second-in-command who would assist the first and take over and run a small business. President Kim has always been the second-in-command since he was young
. Due to that deep-rooted complex, President Kim always struggled to swallow up the group and take the chairman’s position. However
,
the succession structure was solid, and it seemed like there was no room for the president to interfere.
However, a new world called the dungeon was opened.
At first , Although it was a shabby scale, similar to a small military project, President Kim saw hope in this project.
If done well, it could engulf the entire country and even the group.
Even though the position of chairman was right in front of him, he gave up that hope. This was torn to pieces and trampled.
The project that was almost completed, which had been carried out step by step by giving money to public officials, roasting all kinds of media companies, and avoiding Chairman Kim’s eyes. The entire
factory was blown away.
“No. This can’t be the end. “I won’t end things like this, President Kim. What kind of person am I?”
President Kim’s bloodshot eyes were full of venom.
The thought of being treated coldly by the family again and being treated like a second-in-command made me grit my teeth.
“It won’t end like this. Never. Yes, the dungeon will continue to explode. In Korea.” “If one more dungeon opens, we will guard it really thoroughly this time.”
President Kim’s voice, full of resentment, chilled the president’s office.
While all the secretaries were tense, President Kim gave a frosty command:
“As soon as a new dungeon opens, let me know. Don’t stop trying to contact the outside world.”
“What should we do about the complaints of hunters within the guild?”
“If you want to run the dungeon, let me run it. You can sell it overseas for ransom or something.”
President Kim said with eyes shining like a crazy person.
His mind was filled with only new dungeons. If
one more new dungeon opens in Korea, he is determined not to lose it this time.
“…Okay. As soon as there is new news. “I will deliver it to you right away.”
Secretary Eom sighed again today and lowered his head.

Due to the dungeon attack plans announced one after another in each country, Son Mo-ah’s overseas dungeon closing was temporarily suspended. As
usual, starting with the Guam dungeon, he would gradually move through high-risk dungeons. They were planning to attack, but Ban Seo-hu suddenly appeared and put the brakes on them.
“It is not good for us to intervene since the country in question has said it will close the dungeon on its land.”
In an age where everyone watches the news on their smartphones, Seo-hu Ban showed up holding a paper newspaper that he had probably gotten from somewhere, put it down on the table and spoke softly. Seo-jin Ban looked at Seo-hu Ban with an expression that said, ‘What kind of bullshit is this?
‘ I saw it.
And I said the words that came to my face.
“What the hell?”
Seohu Ban spread the newspaper on the table without even looking at it.
It was the international page.
As if dungeon conquering was a hot topic, over the past few days, news of each country considering conquering dungeon boss monsters had been mushrooming like mushrooms.
“Look. America. “After seeing this, other countries are also joining in on this trend. As you can see, even Europe has already said that they are considering conquering some dungeons.”
“however?”
Even in response to Ban Seo-jin’s perverse questions, Ban Seo-hu remained calm.
“If you just leave it alone, everyone will take care of it.”
“I will take care of it.”
“Ban Seo-jin.”
“What? Then let’s just let go and watch? What are you going to do if they don’t close?”
“If they say they will close, they will close.”
Ban Seo-hu, who responded insincerely, hesitated for a moment and then opened his mouth again.
“I don’t know if other countries said they wouldn’t close their dungeons until the end, but now that they have said they will, it’s a bit uncomfortable for us to interfere. “It turned out to be a more complicated problem than I thought.”
“Complicated? What? Is there a simpler problem than this? If a monster pops out of a dungeon, a lot of civilians will die, so we’ll go first and attack it. We’re trying to save people’s lives, so why is it complicated?”
“Ban Seo-jin. It’s not that simple.”
After sighing, Ban Seo-hu turned to Ban Seo-jin and asked,
“What if it were the other way around? Hunters from other countries, such as China and Japan, came into the dungeon in our country and said, ‘I’ve attacked it for your safety, so be grateful,’ and killed the boss monster. What if I kill it and loot all kinds of items?”
“I’m angry. “What kind of centipede is robbing our dungeon?”
“That’s it.”
Son Mo-ah was quietly listening to the conversation between the two people.
Although I wanted to conquer the dangerous dungeon as quickly as possible, what Seohu Ban said made sense.
“I see. Even if you were thinking of closing it anyway, people from other countries will come and close it and take all the items, so there will be resistance.”
“that’s right.”
Ban Seo-hu, who quietly disagreed, stared at Son Mo-ah.
Even though she suggested it, it was up to Son Mo-ah to decide whether or not to attack the overseas dungeon.
Anyway, if Son Moa decided to do it, there was no one here to stop her.
No, it was right to say that even if it could be prevented, it would not be stopped.
“Hmm, then it would be better to wait a little longer on this matter as Mr. Ban Seo-hoo said. “It seems like things are going in a better direction than we expected.”
When Son Mo-ah first heard that the dungeon would be liberated and monsters would come out, she was anxious.
So, we were busy every day and closed all of the Korean dungeons in less than a week.
After everything was over, all that was left was crude criticism and swear words towards Seo Ji-han.
Whenever I read such abusive language on the Internet, I thought that it would be better if monsters would come out sooner.
Of course, the moment that thought came to mind, it was quickly erased by the startled opposite sex.
Anyway, the dungeon that seemed ready to explode at any moment stayed calm for longer than expected.
To the point where I regret closing it too quickly.
One day, two days, three days. Even after several days of uneventful dungeons, Son Mo-ah was able to relax a little.
“How much if you watch?”
Yu Eun-dam, who had been excited about going to raid the dungeon just now, asked urgently. It was as if he had just received news that the amusement park was closing down as soon as he bought a free pass to the amusement park.
“Well, I can’t keep an eye on you for a long time, maybe a week? Before that, I want to proceed with the dungeon raid in a way that I can help if there is a country that asks for help.”
“One week,”
Yoo Eun-dam muttered gloomily.
It was clear that he was not happy with the postponed schedule, but he did not dare to complain about Son Mo-ah’s decision. “
Ah, so you’ve skipped the Guam dungeon raid? I’m working hard for no reason. read.”
With a helpless expression, Ban Seo-jin threw away the strategy book.
Son Mo-ah picked it up and put it back in Ban Seo-jin’s hand.
“It’s not like you won’t completely avoid the strategy, so it will be helpful someday.”
And from that day on, Son Mo-a began to look closely at overseas announcements.
Rather than reviewing them, she checked and re-checked to see if any countries had announced even a little bit of progress and if there was any place that needed help. Among
them, the most awaited news was that the dungeon was actually being opened. It was news that it had been attacked and shut down, but unfortunately, no country was able to proceed at such a fast pace.
And the new news that everyone had been waiting for suddenly arrived one day
in a shocking form that no one expected.
