Karma Corporation Headquarters Operations Center Room.
“You received investment from Hanbyul Group?”
Kim Min-joo asked back with anger at the news that Director Lee A-young delivered over the phone.
“yes! I heard from my dad that Chairman Ha Deok-soo came to visit in person. “I heard that Director Ha Seong-il didn’t know either.”
“Ha…”
Kim Min-joo let out a laugh as if he couldn’t believe the situation.
“Anyway, you don’t have to worry about dispatch costs. “I’ll tell Jun-woo, so Min-ju can just focus on the operation.”
“…Thank you.”
“Whatever I did… it’s all thanks to our handsome CEO.”
“Well, that’s true.”
Minju Kim answered with a small smile.
No matter how much I thought about it, this was nonsense.
As a businessman, it is an incomprehensible behavior for a person as high as Chairman Ha Deok-soo to decide to invest in this situation without any conditions.
Nevertheless, who can deny that his movements are all thanks to Kim Jun-woo’s merits?
‘This saved me an hour…’
Kim Min-ju ended the call.
From now on, we need to establish a dispatch team in earnest.
Fortunately, we have sufficient manpower, so we will be able to proceed without any problems to some extent.
While I was thinking that, the person I was waiting for came into the office.
“Director Kim Min-ju!”
It was none other than Director Ha Seong-il, who had decided to prepare a list of countries to be dispatched to first.
He spoke urgently, putting a pile of documents on the desk.
“This is a list of subjugation emergency associations. There are a total of 22 countries, including Somalia, Syria, the Czech Republic, Venezuela, and Myanmar.”
“22 countries?”
Director Kim Min-ju looked troubled at the number being larger than expected.
“It’s difficult with that number of people. If we send them all, there will be problems with domestic subjugation…”
“I know, but how could it not be possible? “These countries are currently in a very chaotic state, so if they fail to provide support in the early stages, it will immediately lead to casualties.”
“Haa….”
Kim Min-ju sighed deeply and stroked his hair.
It was an unexpected dilemma.
As Director Ha Seong-il said, if there is even the slightest influence on the subjugation of those countries, the problem will get out of control.
Of course, as a responsible person, we couldn’t ignore them, but we couldn’t put our own citizens in danger either.
Is it the survival of the company or the safety of its citizens?
Naturally, it was not easy to choose anything.
‘What on earth should I do…’
It was a time when I was gritting my teeth and racking my brain because I couldn’t see any way.
“I heard the news!”
Unexpected guests appeared in the operation headquarters room.
“It’s been a while, Director!”
“It’s already been a few months since I haven’t seen you, right?”
“CEO Cha? “Representative Yu too…?”
They were none other than Cha Seok-hyun, the representative of the Ares Guild, and Yu Ji-woo, the representative of the Aphrodite Guild.
“Why are the representatives here…?”
“Why? “Isn’t it obvious!”
“I heard there aren’t enough people to subdue. “We thought we could lend a hand as well.”
They answered cheerfully.
After the International Association took over management of global subjugation rights, all domestic private guilds that lost their subjugation rights were naturally absorbed into Karma Corporation.
However, the operation itself was not much different from before, except that only the affiliation was changed and the basic salary was increased.
Of course, since it was not a formal operation team, there was no mandatory subjugation and performance was not applied.
In other words, even if they carried out the subjugation on behalf of the operation team, they would not receive the same subjugation allowance as the operation team.
“Are you okay with it? As you know, the subjugation allowance is….”
“Isn’t it an emergency situation? “I’ve received something along the way, so I can’t pretend not to know.”
“Don’t worry, Headquarters Manager, just focus on dispatch. “We will do whatever we can to subdue the country.”
Although they came forward out of pure kindness, Kim Min-ju still felt sorry.
“We are in a situation where we have to dispatch almost the entire operation team. So, we have to entrust all domestic subjugation… It will be difficult with just two guilds.”
“ha ha ha! What do you mean? “Two guilds!”
At that time, guild leader Cha Seok-hyeon smiled loudly and continued.
“Every guild in the country is already on standby!”
“….”
Minjoo Kim was dumbfounded by those words for a moment.
‘Teacher…’
Kim Min-ju, who knew that everything was his merit, could not help but express his sincere respect to him.
“all right. “Then… I need to ask you a favor.”
“yes!”
“Leave it to me!”
The two best guilds in the country.
And the two representatives leading the guild answered in loud voices.
All active hunters across the country began to move for Karma Corporation.
***
Charles de Gaulle International Airport, Paris, France.
As soon as I arrived at the airport and finished immigration, I got a call from Minjoo Kim.
“The guilds decided to take over the domestic subjugation?”
“yes! “All guilds across the country participated in the subjugation.”
That’s a big deal.
Unlike us, they are a group whose sole purpose is to make a profit, but they jump into a job that doesn’t even allow them to receive subjugation allowances.
‘why…?’
I thought about it carefully, but it was something I couldn’t understand.
“Well… Anyway, I’m glad.”
“Don’t worry about this, please focus on your work.”
“Okay. “Good work to you too.”
As soon as I hung up, my phone vibrated again.
This time it was a call from team leader Hong Du-sik.
“Hey, CEO. My son’s placement should have been completed. Two each from Gyeongsang and Jeolla. One person each from Chungcheong and Gangwon. “The rest is all game.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“So what do we need to investigate now?”
“Since we don’t have any information on who is where and who will receive orders and move, please search everything if there is even the slightest hint of something strange. “In particular, always keep an eye on people in politics and the media.”
“Don’t worry, the guys in the game field have done all the work.”
“It’s also related to money. “It’s like a banking company.”
“I should have known.”
“If you notice anything suspicious, please report it immediately.”
“I said I understood, so draw it. Anyway, don’t worry about us, just take care of your partner. “You have to go into the tiger’s den, so come to your senses.”
“I understand.”
Only after finishing all the calls was I able to take a breather.
“I guess we’re almost ready.”
“Now we just have to do our best.”
Han Yu-bin, who accompanied me, agreed and answered.
As she was leaving the airport, Yubin Han opened her mouth again.
“So shouldn’t you tell me now?”
“yes…?”
“The reason I’m going to headquarters. “I followed the situation because it was a situation, but now I need to know.”
“Well… I told you. “This is a fight you will definitely lose.”
I answered quietly.
“Even if we send dispatch and provide support, it is only a temporary measure. Ultimately, this situation will not be resolved until the shortage of personnel is replenished.”
“Yes…?”
“It will take at least a year to recover the 150,000 people who left…. If they continue to leave, it may take longer than that. This means that we must maintain dispatch and support during that period.”
Yubin Han listened to my story with a very serious expression.
“The problem is that it is unclear whether this situation can be resolved, and even if it is resolved, the damage is too great. “If we are not careful, we may not be able to continue operating.”
“….”
She nodded heavily.
Well, that’s what I said, but in reality, it didn’t really matter to me what happened to the company.
These are all things that will disappear when you return anyway.
What is more important to me is time.
A year and a half have already passed since I returned.
I have only 3 years and 6 months left.
However, if you spend 2 or 3 years trying to resolve this matter… becoming the Secretary-General is essentially skipping the water.
If that happens, of course it won’t be possible to go back to how it was before. Well, aside from that…
‘I can’t lose to the International Association again this time…’
They were the ones who blocked my life before I returned, so I can’t be blocked by them this time either.
“So, let’s put out the urgent fire for now, but we must resolve more fundamental issues.”
“No way… you’re not planning on asking me to be eliminated, are you?”
“Is it just a favor? If that doesn’t work, I have to at least kneel. As I said, we are at a complete disadvantage this time. So, this is not the time to choose between means and methods.”
“….”
Han Yu-bin avoided answering and avoiding eye contact.
Anyone who saw it had a very angry face.
“Well, don’t be like that. Wasn’t it a fight with a different starting line from the beginning? Rather, it is a miracle that we have made good saves so far. “Didn’t you know that something like this would happen someday?”
“That’s true, but…”
“Don’t be needlessly proud of something that involves people’s lives. “Whether you pray or kneel, survival comes first.”
Only then did Han Yubin also nod.
Of course, his expression still looked disapproving.
“Well, first of all, putting that aside… In any case, you should get insurance.”
“…?”
I took out my cell phone and immediately made a call.
A very short conversation followed.
In less than 10 seconds, I put my phone away and Han Yu-bin tilted her head and asked.
“Who are you calling?”
“I know it when I see it.”
I smiled instead of answering.

smart-.
The office of the Secretary-General at the International Hunter Association Headquarters.
The secretary carefully opened the door and came in, knocking.
“What’s going on?”
When Secretary General Wesley asked, she paused for a moment and opened her mouth.
“A representative of Karma Corporation has now visited our headquarters.”
“….”
For a moment, I looked puzzled at the unexpected news.
‘Ah…’
A smile appeared on his lips as if he soon realized what was going on.
“ha ha ha! “I didn’t expect you to come visit me in person… but it looks like you’re in quite a hurry.”
“Should I ask you to come up?”
“Precious people came, but that can’t happen. “I’m going down.”
Secretary General Wesley left the office immediately.
His steps towards him seemed strangely excited.
He ran one step at a time to the first floor lobby and finally faced the man who was waiting for him.
“It’s been a while, Mr. Kim. “I never thought we would meet again like this.”
Secretary General Wesley shook his hand warmly.
However, Kim Jun-woo did not hold hands.
“I came here in person today because I had something to ask of you.”
“Oh, CEO Kim of the World, do you want me to do you a favor? “I wonder what it’s about.”
Secretary General Wesley joked.
Of course, the reason he came was obvious, and what he was asking for was even more obvious.
Nevertheless, Wesley played it cool.
And at that time, Kim Jun-woo bowed his waist.
“Please reinstate those who failed the ranking review through a re-evaluation.”
As expected, the request did not deviate one bit from expectations.
Those words brought a smile to Secretary General Wesley’s face.
“What do you mean. “If anyone hears this, they will think that I am intentionally making people lose out.”
“It doesn’t matter if it wasn’t intentional. “Currently, there are too many dropouts, so each country’s associations are having a hard time suppressing them.”
“Isn’t that Karma Corporation’s responsibility? “They are the ones who conducted the ranking review and have the authority to manage hunters?”
“Of course, I plan to take responsibility.”
“Then shouldn’t we do something about it instead of just staying like this?”
“….”
Secretary General Wesley continued, trying to hide his laughter.
“Besides, even if it was me who did it, I don’t think there’s any reason to grant that request.”
“there is.”
At that time, Kim Jun-woo immediately answered in a heavy voice.
“If you would listen to my request…”
Eventually, his sharp eyes turned to Secretary General Wesley.
“I will save your life.”
“…what?”
A word flew into my ears that made me doubt my ears.
“Let me say it again. If you stop the dropouts right now and conduct a re-evaluation, I will just go back without doing anything. But if you don’t…”
Soon, Kim Jun-woo straightened his back and looked straight at Secretary General Wesley and continued speaking.
“As of this moment, I will declare war on the headquarters of the International Hunter Association.”
“….”
“Ah, I’m telling you this in case you misunderstand…”
The smile that disappeared from Secretary General Wesley’s mouth had already moved to Kim Jun-woo.
“I mean this from the bottom of my heart.”
