The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 165

“Help? “You’re helping me by making modifications like this?!”
Branch Manager Shoichi’s voice became increasingly more intense.
“Of course, I’m not forcing it. The choice must be made by the branch manager. But you won’t have much of a choice.”
The information being spread in the media right now is not the fact that Haramura Kobo lied.
The story is that the Japanese branch threatened Haramura to produce fake weapons in order to make money from the International Association.
Well, of course it’s a lie I made up.
In some ways, the Japanese branch is also a victim of being deceived by Haramura… Didn’t I tell you that?
They say that if you tell a lie 100 times, it becomes the truth.
The International Association will definitely take action in some way against the Japanese branch that has deceived them.
Of course, we do not know whether this will be a measure limited to the Japanese branch or a measure that will have an impact on the entire country.
In any case, Japanese citizens, including the National Assembly, naturally do not want to be treated harshly because of the branch.
Above all, under Han Yu-bin’s leadership, aren’t they using the media, the Internet, and politicians to create fear that they may face retaliation?
The National Assembly is also responding that the branch should be abandoned, so if this is left as is, the Japanese branch will be abandoned by both Japan and international associations.
Branch is barely breathing, with all his teeth missing.
Of course, the person in charge, Branch Manager Shoichi, will not be able to avoid severe punishment.
Haramura and International Association.
The Japanese branch is in a situation where it is trying to get both but loses them all.
And to turn this situation around… there are only two ways.
The first is to reveal the truth about Haramura’s workshop through death or destruction.
Of course, we will lose the Haramura brand, but at least we will avoid being abandoned by both sides.
Branch Manager Shoichi must have been thinking the same thing as he picked up his cell phone and shouted again.
“Publish a rebuttal article right now! It wasn’t us who initiated it, it was the Haramura family who lied in the first place! We told each broadcasting station that we were just deceived…”
“We’re already trying… but we’re not receiving calls.”
“…What?”
Of course, I can’t just let you report this loss now.
I’m sorry, but the Haramura family must remain an influential brand.
“Ah, it looks like someone is putting pressure on the broadcasting station and the media.”
“Who the fuck is it? “What kind of bastards would do something like that to us!”
“Recently, I heard that Yakuza organizations across Japan have been integrated. Could it be their doing?…”
“…!”
That huge power, led by Han Yu-bin, has already controlled all media.
Of course, now there is no room for the branch to intervene.
In this way, the first method became useless.
Then there is only one way left.
“We will resolve the Japanese branch somehow, so how about leaving it to us for now and avoiding the branch leader first?”
“what…?”
“Please hand over the Japanese branch to us.”
Hand over the person in charge, take everything you can, and then take it out on your own.
“With this down payment and the two foundations I gave you, you will be able to live somewhere with beautiful scenery for the rest of your life. “Well, I’ll call you again when the situation is somewhat resolved.”
“Are you telling me to believe that now?!”
“What if you don’t believe it? “I think it would be better than taking full responsibility and going to jail.”
Branch Manager Shoichi’s pupils shook greatly.
A wedge was driven in for him who was worried.
“Branch Manager, this is all for the Japanese branch. Think about it. If things continue like this, the Japanese branch will fall. “We’ll clean up the dirty poop for you, so what are you worried about?”
“….”
“We don’t have much time, branch manager.”
I handed out a document to Branch Manager Shoichi.
It was about delegating the highest responsibility of the Japanese branch.
“Now, all you have to do is sign here.”
“….”
Branch Manager Shoichi’s hands were shaking as he received the pen.
But even for a moment.
“Damn… Damn…!”
Despite swearing, he eventually scrawled his signature on the document.
“You fucking wait! “If you do anything stupid while I’m away, I won’t let you go!”
“Yes, that’s the way out.”
Here, while the battle was still in full swing, Branch Manager Shoichi finally turned his back.
Boom, boom, boom!
Bubble!
“Keep pushing!!”
“The cold is so severe that it is impossible to approach!”
“If it’s an attack that won’t work anyway, don’t try it at all!”
The operations team was still struggling, not knowing what had just happened.
‘Tsk, it takes a long time.’
He walked to the middle of the boss room where the battle was taking place and spoke in a loud voice.
“I have an urgent announcement. “Please stop for a moment.”
“…?”
“What is it?”
“It’s dangerous out here, so get out of here!”
what the.
They’re making such a fuss over one Ghost type.
“Now, since we don’t have time, I’ll explain quickly. As of the current time, Branch Manager Shoichi has delegated all responsibilities of the Japanese branch to me.”
“…?”
“…what?”
“Well, that doesn’t mean I, who am not a member of the International Association, will become the branch president. “You can think of me as a substitute in charge while the branch manager is away.”
It seems he noticed something strange belatedly.
The operations team stopped fighting and looked at me.
I don’t know if I have time to look around.
“What are you doing? If you understand, please continue with the subjugation.”
“…Ha ha ha ha ha.”
“What are you talking about now?”
“The branch manager delegated authority? That can’t be possible…”
They laughed and added one word at a time.
Well, it’s a natural reaction.
Anyone would be shocked if the person in charge suddenly changed during a subjugation.
However…
“Wait a minute… I can’t see the branch manager?”
“what?!”
“You were here just now!”
“What did you do to your branch manager!”
“Where is the branch manager?”
You idiots.
Do you not know what is more urgent in the current situation?
Kkeeeeeek-.
bang-!!!
Seolgwi’s attack flew towards them, who had forgotten that they were in battle.
‘If I leave it to its own devices, it will take all day…’
I have to get busy from now on, so I can’t waste time here.
“If you’re not going to do it right, come out.”
“What what…?”
“Now this looks like a joke…!”

[Production Skill: Eight Heat Hell]
Red lava began to fill up at Seolgui’s feet.
Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaah~!!!
A hellfire that does not go out even after eons.
As the flames of the eight hells that judge the dead rose up, Seolgui let out an ear-piercing scream.
“Uh huh…?”
“What is it…?”
Everyone looked dumbfounded, as if they couldn’t believe I had delivered the first effective hit since the start of the subjugation.
But even for a moment.
Shuuuuuu!
Exhaling a tremendous amount of cold, the snowflake escaped the flames and flew up into the sky.
Soon, a strong snowstorm struck.
Push push!
Instead of snow, blade-sharp ice crystals were flying like crazy.
‘Tsk, that’s annoying.’
He took a defensive stance and approached Goreda, who was a test member.
“hey! “Give me the sword.”
“Huh? “That…!”
I took away the tens class… something that Goreda was holding.
Goreda panicked when his weapon was taken away.
Well, I know it’s fake, so it’s a natural reaction.

Seuugh―.
I swung my sword lightly.
Kwagwagwagwang-!!
The huge flame that hit directly did not go out even in the strong cold and quickly burned down the tongue.
“….”
“….”
There was no need for any more attacks.
As I just looked at the screaming Snowflake, the snowstorm that had raged in the boss room stopped for a moment.
The boss fell, but the operations team was still frozen in place.
hmm? The blizzard has stopped, but why is it still frozen?
“…what what!”
“Wasn’t that fake?!”
“I heard the rumors about the Haramura family were lies.”
“The branch manager definitely said that…”
We mutter among ourselves as if we couldn’t understand.
Well, anyway, this concludes the weapon testing.
“Well, it looks like we’re finished, so let’s go out. There’s a lot to do. “I’m going to be very busy from now on.”
“….”
“….”
There was no answer, but everyone obediently began to leave the dungeon.
***
At the same time, the National Assembly confirmation hearing was held in Yeouido.
“Is it true that Karma Corporation signed a large contract with its Japanese branch?”
Director Ha Seong-il immediately answered the question posed by a member of the National Assembly.
“It’s true. But the reason we signed the contract was not to maintain a relationship with the Japanese branch…” “
Have you already forgotten what the Japanese branch did to us in the past?”
“no. We also remember the atrocities of the Japanese branch, and this transaction is in no way an attempt to join hands with them….
” Does that make sense?”
“Do you think it is possible for a company like this to monopolize the right to subjugate?”
The questions from the Future Democratic Party members continued to be asked, interrupting Director Ha Seong-il’s speech.
They had no intention of hearing an answer from the beginning.
‘Whoa, you old bastards…’
Director Ha Seong-il lowered his head without realizing it.
They are risking their national sentiments, but in fact, they are not saying this because they are truly patriots.
We just need a means to undermine the fact that Karma Corporation and CEO Kim Jun-woo have the unconditional trust of the public.
So no matter how much you try to persuade them, they have no intention of listening.
The only answer they want is to acknowledge everything and say sorry.
‘That way we can accuse us of what we really did wrong…’
Director Ha Seong-il furrowed his brows.
I was called in on behalf of CEO Kim Jun-woo, but since I was in charge, I had to do anything.
In the worst case, we may have to give up the hard-won right to subjugation.
“Director Ha Seong-il.”
At that time, Representative Seong Hyun-sook, the leader of the Future Democratic Party and the culprit who spread the Japanese branch gossip, spoke out.
“yes… “Please speak.”
“Looking here, it says that the youth hunter training foundation that Karma Corporation was promoting was recently handed over to the head of the Japanese branch.”
“…?”
“If you are not trying to join hands with the Japanese branch, how will you explain this? No matter how you look at it, this looks like nothing more than a bribe.”
“….”
Director Ha Seong-il couldn’t answer that question.
It was natural.
It was my first time hearing this story.
“How… can we conduct a search and seizure at Karma Corporation?”
“….”
Damn it.
If this is the case, there is no answer.
Director Ha Seong-il bit his lip tightly and then let out a light sigh.
And that moment.
“Representative!”
An aide to party leader Sung Hyun-sook urgently visited her.
Then he relayed the news he had just received.
“CEO Kim Jun-woo… has just been delegated responsibility for the Japan branch.”
“…?”
The lawmakers froze for a moment.
“what…?”
“…What what?!”
“What the hell?!”
The response started coming half a beat late.
Each member of the National Assembly urgently called somewhere and began to check the information.
Looking at the expressions, it seemed like it was true.
‘Ha… you really make my liver tremble.’
Only then did Director Ha Seong-il smile with a sigh of relief.
