The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 181

181

One week since the operation began.

The unprecedented scale of simultaneous subjugation operations was still proceeding smoothly without any major problems.

I was also quite worried because I had never commanded an operation of this scale before, but fortunately, the team leaders in charge of each area were doing a pretty good job.

East is the head of the Operation Sean team at the US branch.

The West is Noah.

Kim Min-ju in the north and Viet branch leader in the south.

All were considerable veterans.

I created an overall subjugation routine according to the schedule and number of people, and each district team leader adjusted it to suit their own situation.

Thanks to this, I didn’t have to worry about the details.

This allowed us to focus more effort on the overall operational routine.

The dungeons conquered over the course of a week recorded an amount conquered of over 1500% of the average.

A truly enormous number.

The by-products that are pouring out like crazy are handled by the cleaning team led by branch managers Yubin Han and Haramura.

If things continue like this, it will only be a matter of time before we find Eden.

Of course, if the Eden Dungeon reappears within a month.

“The amount of conquests in the East has dropped by about 5% compared to yesterday. Is there a problem?”

When I checked the status in the office and asked, Director Lee Ah-young looked at the tablet PC and opened his mouth.

“Operation Team 4 of the U.S. branch suffered injuries while conquering a green-level dungeon. “It wasn’t a major injury… I think the schedule was a little messed up as another team went out to support the subjugation instead of the 4th team.”

“Seup. “How long do you think the treatment will take?”

“You will need to rest for at least three days.”

“That’s a bit tricky. “I think we need to provide some support from other districts. Is there a district that has room?”

“There aren’t many dungeons in the North, so it’s still easy. Should I contact Minju and ask him to form a subjugation support team?”

“That would be great.”

“all right.”

Director Lee Ah-young immediately ran out of the office.

She flew in immediately after requesting dispatch to the headquarters, heard only a brief outline of the operation, and immediately moved to find her own job.

Thanks to the fact that the subjugation status and hunter status in each area were checked and reported to me in real time, I was able to understand the operation situation fairly quickly.

But she was not the only one who took part in this operation.

“yes. “This is Kim Jun-woo.”

“CEO, this is Ha Seong-il. “Right now, Boss Hanbyul is sending additional weapons and potions by airmail.”

“Oh, that’s good. “It was a close call.”

Director Ha Seong-il also volunteered to help with this operation.

“And Hanbyeol Construction also said that they would build temporary lodgings and a temporary control center. “Is there anything else we need?”

“There is a lack of means of transporting the operation team to each area and a distribution route for by-products. There is not enough time to build a new road, so I wish there was another way…” “

Yes, I will look into that as well.”

“Thank you.”

“no. CEO, please focus on operations and not worry about anything else.”

Director Ha hung up the phone like that.

Perhaps because he asked Chairman Ha Deok-soo directly, the entire Hanbyul Group is sparing no effort in providing all kinds of support, including dispatch costs and equipment care.

I’m a little scared that I’ll be charged a lump sum later…

Anyway, for now, I’m carrying out the operation without any burden on the cost.

In addition, the control team Eclipse employees led by the team leader of the by-product processing facility employees.

Everyone contributed to this operation without any compensation.

…It seems like there isn’t much to do.

If the operation fails, we’ll all end up on the street together. What are you thinking about helping me?

At that time, I was shaking my head at a situation that I could not understand.

“How is Kim’s situation?”

Director Michael came into the office.

“There are no special problems. “Progress is going smoothly… but there is no news from Eden yet.”

“Let’s not be impatient and wait. “I’m sure you can find it.”

“I guess so.”

When I answered, Branch Manager Michael continued speaking with a slightly dark look on his face.

“Anyway, I’m a little worried.”

“Which one do you mean?”

“Hasn’t the amount of subjugation increased ridiculously? “If the numbers are this high, the headquarters of the International Association will definitely take notice.”

“Of course it is. Or maybe you already figured it out.”

They are monitoring the subjugation status around the world in real time, so there’s no way they wouldn’t know.

“They will try to stop it by any means possible. What do you plan on doing, Kim?”

“That’s…”

he continued, approaching Branch Manager Michael.

“I believe the branch manager will be able to resolve the issue better than me.”

Should I even care about that?

Just directing the operation is enough to make my head explode.

So, I meant that I should be of some help instead of just sitting back and watching.

“…All right.”

Why is his expression so determined?

It seems like the meaning wasn’t conveyed well… but I figured it wouldn’t matter.

***

I really can’t believe it even when I see it with my own eyes.

Those words were deeply ingrained in Branch Manager Michael’s mind all week.

CEO Kim Jun-woo.

Former dungeon cleaner.

Former Korean Association’s youngest operations chief.

And currently the head of Asia’s largest private subjugation company.

He was a very famous man in this world, so I knew a bit about him, but honestly, his history was ridiculous.

At first, I thought he was a man who grew through connections and support.

But that prejudice was shattered in just one day.

Kim Jun-woo created a subjugation routine across the United States just one day after the start of the operation.

The most efficient routine that takes into account all schedules of a total of 250 teams in just one day.

As if that wasn’t enough, we are perfectly coordinating the staffing and schedule for each area throughout the week.

A commanding ability that is truly admirable.

I also thought that I had a lot of experience in this field, but…

‘It’s a long way below me…’

What surprised me more than anything was that everyone around him had no hesitation in helping him.

If you’re not careful, you may end up on this earth for the rest of your life just because you helped him.

For those who make a living through subjugation, it is no different from a death sentence.

However, many people, including business associations and even individuals, are willing to help him.

Kim Jun-woo….

What on earth has this man been doing all this time?

‘I guess there really is such a thing as karma…’

Branch manager Michael smiled bitterly.

Seeing Kim receiving everyone’s respect and trust despite his young age made me feel humbled.

Perhaps the feelings I felt toward him were closer to jealousy than awe.

Tremendous understanding of subjugation.

The commanding power to lead a total of five countries alone.

Leadership that makes everyone believe and follow.

Isn’t it worth it since he is truly a person who is close to perfection?

however.

‘You believe that I will solve the problem better than you…’

And the most important of all is the conflict with the headquarters of the international association.

Branch Manager Michael thought for a moment.

Yes, he is a man who basically trusts people.

You can’t disappoint someone like that.

That’s when I was thinking that.

“Branch Manager Michael.”

Someone’s voice broke my thoughts.

When I looked up, I saw men in suits.

Of course, it was everyone’s first time seeing them.

“Who are you…?”

“It came from the headquarters audit team. “Can we talk for a moment?”

“…!”

It’s coming.

Branch Manager Michael composed himself and opened his mouth.

“great.”

“Then take a seat for a moment…”

“No. Do it here.”

Branch Manager Michael answered firmly.

It was to gain momentum, but the men took a step back and started talking as if it didn’t matter.

“The amount of subjugation this week has increased dramatically. “Can you explain why?”

“…It’s because it’s settlement season.”

“Settlement season?”

The men laugh.

“This amount of subjugation is equivalent to conquering dungeons across the United States simultaneously. “During settlement season, does the number of operations team members suddenly increase dozens of times?”

“….”

“Branch Manager Michael, tell me the truth.”

A man asked, looking straight into Director Michael’s eyes.

“Are you by any chance looking for Eden right now?”

“….”

I knew it too.

“An operation of this scale would not be possible with the current personnel of the U.S. branch alone. It looks like Korea and some associations are working together…”

The man continued with a sharp look in his eyes.

“Stop the operation immediately.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. “I have the authority to subjugate within the United States…”

“Branch Manager Michael.”

The man interrupted Michael and took out a document from his pocket.

“This is an official letter from headquarters. “If you stop the operation, we will provide you with a place at headquarters.”

“…ha ha ha.”

“You can’t stay at the branch forever. “Once you become a branch manager, you should move up.”

Branch Manager Michael let out a chuckle.

Michael knows himself well.

A stubborn and inflexible person.

Thanks to this, I also know that I am not hearing good things from my employees.

It does not favor certain occupations, nor does it favor marginalized occupations.

Since everything is handled according to principles, it is probably worth it.

But usually that kind of thing.

“Did you really think I would be tempted by something like that?”

They don’t even blink at this kind of trivial appeasement.

“As I said, the US branch is currently in settlement season. Of course the operation will continue and you have no authority to stop it.”

“…Is that so.”

For a moment, the man’s expression hardened.

But even for a moment.

“Then how about this?”

Soon he took out another document from his pocket.

“This is an official letter ordering withdrawal from the International Association. If you do not stop the operation immediately, we will force you to withdraw from the American branch of the International Association.”

“…!”

“How can you tolerate this?”

Director Michael’s pupils shook greatly.

Forced withdrawal order.

You don’t have to think about it to know what that means.

Didn’t Secretary General Wesley notify that organizations that are not affiliated with the International Association no longer have the right to subjugate?

Withdrawing from the international association means blocking the subjugation of the American branch.

‘Damn it…’

I chewed it through my teeth.

“Would you rather stop the operation and go to headquarters or be kicked out of the International Association?”

The man handed two documents to Branch Manager Michael.

“The branch leader chooses himself.”

“….”

Branch Manager Michael’s shaking gaze was fixed on the document the man held out.

If you risk withdrawing from the International Association and proceed with the operation and are lucky enough to find Eden, you can prevent the current headquarters’ control.

But if by some chance you can’t find Eden… Without being able to prevent the control of the headquarters, the U.S. branch will be deprived of its right to subjugate the enemy forever.

Even if that were the case for me, thousands of employees belonging to the U.S. branch would end up on the streets at once.

The risk involved in something that is not certain is too great.

So should we stop the operation like this?

After thinking for a while, Branch Manager Michael let out a deep sigh.

And then.

“…I will do it this way.”

I picked up the headquarters appointment notice.
