Regressor’s Life After Retirement - Chapter 93
—————————————
[One suggestion]
When Daein arrives at the conference room -I was a little late because I had to take the kids and Abraxas to the room- There was a heavy atmosphere in the conference room.
‘It looks like it’s already started.’
Daein looked around the conference room.
At the head of the conference room were the superhumans of the Superhuman Association, on the left were Baek Chang-soo and executives of the White House Guild, and on the right were the accusers of this case.
The accusers were superhumans from Whitehouse Team 6.
“…Nine supermen of the White House Guild reported Wang Gu-ho. Accordingly, the Superhuman Association investigated this case for two days and decided to hold a disciplinary committee meeting today to decide the level of punishment for Superhuman Wang Guho.”
Taewoong Min, who chaired today’s punitive committee meeting, spoke in a business-like tone. It seemed like the meeting had just started.
‘All the big names came.’
The great man looked at the superhumans sitting side by side at the head table in the conference room. There were two impregnable
Min Tae-woong Demon
King Kim Tae-
jin [The First Awakening], and to the left and right were the representatives of the Warriors Guild, as well as representatives of medium and large guilds.
Daein, who saw the faces of the attendees, was so dumbfounded that he burst out laughing.
‘These people gathered in one place just because of an assault incident? ‘You’re making a grand excuse.’
I heard about the changes in the situation over the past few months from Baek Young-hee.
It was said that it had been less than a month since the famous and insignificant Superhuman Association began to function properly.
After the first disaster [The Night of the Seven Moons], the superhumans felt the need to cooperate and decided to properly run the superhuman association, which had been only a facade until then.
And the person selected as the new president of the Superhuman Association is
“…Team Leader Lim.” “You’re here.”
Baek Chang-soo looked at Daein with a dark face.
“CEO. “I heard you became the president of the Superhuman Association?”
“…I really didn’t want to do it.”
Just by looking at it, it looked like that. It would be a position with no real power, only responsibility and restraint.
At that time, one of the adepts from the association raised an objection.
“Is it okay for outsiders unrelated to the case to come into the meeting? Letting him go out…”
“I think we can just leave it alone.”
The person who defended Daein was not Baek Changsu.
Taejin Kim, who was sitting with his arms crossed on one side of the head table, looked at the person with one corner of his mouth curled up.
“The perpetrator of the incident is the team leader of the team, so he is fully qualified to participate in the meeting. And I can’t say I’m not responsible for this either.”
Daein shrugged his shoulders at the clearly felt hostility of the other person.
“Thank you.”
After saying that and sitting down on the chair, there was no one anymore telling Daein that he had to go out.
“Hmm. “Then let’s continue the meeting.”
Min Taewoong, who focused the distracted atmosphere on himself by coughing, opened his mouth.
“First, let me summarize the incident one more time. Three days ago, Wang Gu-ho, a superhuman, assaulted Yong Dae-hun, a superhuman belonging to the same guild, into a vegetative state and later seriously injured nine other superhumans.”
Baek Young-hee, who came with an armful of files, refuted the case that was described too briefly.
“Wait. “The whole story about why this incident happened in the first place is missing.”
“Violence cannot be justified for any reason!”
The man sitting across from me shouted. He, who had traces of being hit on his face, was the deputy team leader of Team WH-6.
The great man who saw that face tilted his head and muttered.
“It’s so strange. Has the guild run out of potions? “It looks like the wound would have healed if I had just put a little bit of it on my face… I wonder if you haven’t treated it yet just to show me what you got hit with?”
It was a small whisper, but no one in this conference room could hear it.
“profit…!”
The assistant team leader’s face brightened at that moment, but instead of questioning the leader, he chose to ignore it and continue talking.
“We suffered great physical and mental pain after being assaulted by a colleague we trusted!”
To the left and right, the superheroes of Team 6, looking similar, nodded eagerly.
And a woman in her 50s sitting near the head of the table spoke.
“CEO Baek Chang-soo. “My son became a vegetable.”
The woman who applied luxury products all over her body was the mother of Team 6 leader Yong Dae-hoon. She glared at Baek Chang-soo with venomous eyes.
“Now I may never wake up again!” “The CEO also has children, so you know how I feel, right?”
Baek Chang-soo spoke with the expression of a guilty person.
“mother. I’m also really sorry about what happened to Team Leader Yong….”
“Don’t just say you’re sorry. How will you take responsibility for my son’s future?”
Somehow she seemed more worried about her own future than her son.
A muttering to himself came out of the great man’s mouth again.
“It seems like your mother doesn’t know much. “When you join a guild, you sign a memorandum stating that you are responsible for all accidental deaths.”
Before Yong Dae-hun’s mother could react, Baek Chang-soo looked back at Dae-in with stern eyes.
“Team Leader Lim! “Be careful what you say!”
Baek Younghee also poked Daein’s side. She whispered into the man’s ear.
“Don’t scratch it and make it crumble. “This is the place where you have to judge!”
The great man said, “Yes, yes.” He nodded half-heartedly.
The meeting continued like that.
Team 6, who reported Wang Gu-ho, criticized Wang Gu-ho, centered on the vice team leader, and Yong Dae-hoon’s mother criticized the guild with a wildcat-like expression.
‘Those who say they came from the Superhuman Association just looked at it.’
The more he looked, the clearer his intentions seemed.
The assistant team leader of Team 6 raised his eyebrows and said.
“Please expel Wang Guho from the guild so that the same thing does not happen again! Also, please have the Association permanently revoke his superhuman status!”
“…Youngsik. “Is it really necessary to do that with members of the same family?”
Baek Chang-soo looked at him and bit his lip tightly.
Before being the president of the Superhuman Association, which must be fair in all cases, Baek Chang-soo was the representative of the Whitehouse Guild.
He cared for each and every one of the guild’s adepts, regardless of their skills. So, until now, I have neither supported nor blamed one side.
“Withdrawing the complaint and resolving the issue amicably between us…”
However, Jang Young-sik said, slightly avoiding Baek Chang-soo’s gaze.
“I have no intention of staying in the guild even after something like this happens. All six of our teams will leave the guild.”
“…what!”
At that moment, Baek Chang-soo’s expression hardened and tremendous magical power burst out of his body.
-Kwakwakwakwakwa!
Baek Chang-soo’s huge presence fills the conference room in an instant. Daein clicked his tongue without realizing it.
‘This guy has gotten stronger, right?’
I thought it might be worth a try even if it sticks properly by now, but I thought it would be better for my new idea to just not stick it.
“Baek Chang-su!”
“older brother! “Stop it!”
Kim Tae-jin and Min Tae-woong simultaneously raised their magic power and suppressed Baek Chang-soo’s momentum.
“…sorry. “I was a little excited.”
Jang Young-sik, who received the energy from the front, was trembling. Taejin Kim said with a distorted expression.
“Baek Chang-soo. “Please keep in mind that in this case, the president of the Superhuman Association is the guild’s reference!”
Min Taewoong also warned Baek Changsu.
“Wang Guho’s mistake is clear. And this is what the Superhuman Association should do. “Please distinguish between public and private matters.”
Representatives from other guilds also said, “That’s right.” “That’s right,” he nodded. It felt as if everyone was on the same side.
Baek Chang-su sighed and nodded.
“…Okay.”
And the great man who watched it said,
‘You bastards. ‘I came with a very deliberate intention.’
The great man quietly looked at the adepts sitting at the head table.
Demon King Kim Tae-jin.
Min Tae-woong, an iron wall.
and representatives of various guilds active in Seoul.
Several people are killed by monsters every day.
But even if you deliberately tried to gather people who were difficult to gather together, they came together in one place due to an assault incident by one guild?
It was something that couldn’t have happened.
‘It’s you guys, right? ‘Did you instigate them?’
It was Team 6’s Cho-in and Yong Dae-hoon’s mother who reported Wang Gu-ho and demanded punishment, but there were other people who coordinated it behind the scenes.
In the eyes of the great man, their work was clearly visible.
‘The real target is not Wang Guho, but White House.’
These were all things I had experienced before.

Kim Tae-jin and Min Tae-woong exchanged glances as they watched the meeting proceed.
‘It’s going as expected.’
‘I think so.’
We did not meet separately and make a specific plan. However, their interests were aligned from the beginning.
‘Whitehouse hit too hard on his own.’
‘Appropriate checks are needed.’
Until then, Blackhound had a clear advantage over Whitehouse in terms of scale and performance.
It was only after the disaster had passed that the situation turned around.
In [The Night of the Seven Moons], Whitehouse was the only one to handle two core gates.
That alone was a huge benefit, but even the value of the loot was the highest from those two core gates.
To put it somewhat exaggeratedly, even if you combine the products from the other 5 Core Gates, it is worse than those 2.
‘As if someone had deliberately assigned the best share to White House…’
How unfair it was to have even thought of such a ridiculous idea.
Moreover, Whitehouse had recently been raising money through his potion business. That’s money in the pockets of those same superhumans.
In the end, a few days ago…
“What’s all the fuss about?”
WH-7 team leader Lease, who opened the gate and came out, said that he had been to the continent of Gaia.
money. skill. Fame.
And the only guild with information from another dimension.
It was natural for a sense of crisis to hit the guild representatives.
‘If this continues, the gap will gradually widen.’
‘You can’t leave me alone any longer.’
‘We have to keep it in check somehow!’
Right now, it’s just one or two steps, but if left as is, Whitehouse will be dozens of steps ahead.
It was at that time that Wang Gu-ho’s assault case became known.
”This is it!”
The guild representatives who caught the number of cases came together with one mind.
First, it was Kim Tae-jin who approached the superhumans of Team WH-6.
‘You-all. Are you interested in signing with us at double your salary? There is only one condition… that you report Wang Guho to the association.’
It was Min Tae-woong who worked hard to move the Superhuman Association to create public opinion and open a punishment committee.
‘Supermen are not outlaws. Rather, we must obey the law more than anyone else and be a role model for citizens. In particular, assault cases within the guild cannot be ignored!’
As the two giants took the lead, representatives from other guilds also joined in.
This board was made that way.
In fact, it’s White House vs. all other guilds.
In this situation, there was nothing Baek Chang-soo could do.
Public opinion in the conference room became increasingly unfavorable to Wang Guho and the Whitehouse Guild.
“Wang Guho’s superhuman status must be revoked!”
“A superhuman with a promising future became a vegetable. Even the Whitehouse Guild will not be able to avoid moral responsibility.”
Pretending to break up the heated atmosphere, Min Taewoong presented a mediation plan.
“How about expelling Wang Guho from the guild and depriving him of his superhuman status for about a year?”
Taejin Kim nodded as if he had been waiting and walked out.
“I think that’s appropriate for me too. Permanent expulsion is a bit harsh.”
From then on, the atmosphere began to change little by little.
Wang Gu-ho’s expulsion from the guild is an established fact, but the story about the period of deprivation of superhuman qualifications has become longer.
Kim Tae-jin and Min Tae-woong briefly exchanged glances.
‘I will take the King’s Lake.’
‘Let’s give it a try.’
Neither of them had any intention of permanently depriving Wang Guho of his superhuman status. Such talent. The plan was to kick him out of Whitehouse and recruit him later.
A fierce behind-the-scenes battle would begin, but both were confident in recruiting Wang Gu-ho.
‘Wangguho was originally from our black hounds.’
‘Any superman in a tank position is bound to yearn for an iron wall.’
The two men smiled softly at each other while dreaming of different dreams.
It was then that the great man stepped forward.
“Let me make a suggestion.”
