“Yes, yes, we are currently looking into a solution.”
Karma Corporation headquarters operations headquarters room.
Headquarters Manager Kim Min-ju was on the phone until he was exhausted from the constant incoming calls.
“Yes… I’m sorry. “We will take action as quickly as possible.”
“I would appreciate it if you could wait a little while. “Yes, I’m sorry.”
The moment I put the phone down, the phone rings again.
The thought of having to repeat the same thing over and over again made me feel dizzy.
Instead of answering the phone, Kim Min-ju sighed deeply and ran his fingers through his hair.
And then.
“What is it?”
Headquarters Manager Seong-il Ha hurriedly entered the office and spoke in a very excited voice.
“Why hasn’t it passed yet?! “There’s no real uproar in every country right now…!”
“Customs does not allow us to export weapons.”
“yes?”
Director Ha Seong-il’s eyebrows twitched at the unexpected answer.
“What does that mean? “There’s never been anything like that before.”
“I’m also looking into it.”
“What on earth is going on?…”
Director Ha Seong-il bit his lip as if he was frustrated.
“Then, how about sending at least some personnel as soon as possible? “You can use the weapons provided by each association.”
“That’s hard. “I don’t know about the swordsman and guardian classes, but the wizard, priest, mechanic, and sniper classes cannot demonstrate their full power unless they have weapons made to suit their unique skills.”
“Ah…”
Director Ha Seong-il scratched his head sheepishly at the fact that he didn’t know.
It had been several months since I joined Karma Corporation, and I felt quite embarrassed that I still didn’t know much about the field work.
But that wasn’t what mattered now.
“Then what should I do? The subjugation of each country is becoming more and more difficult. “If dispatch is delayed any further, casualties will occur.”
“….”
Minju Kim frowned.
Even if she asked what to do, she also had no solution at the moment.
Of course, because it was such an unusual situation, I asked the ‘Intelligence Team’ directly under Kim Jun-woo to investigate, but no matter how good they were, they wouldn’t be able to resolve the situation right away.
It was obvious that the procedures and all that would take time.
“For now, I have no choice but to wait a little longer…”
This is the moment when Minju Kim opens her mouth like that.
– Chief Customs Officer Ji Bo-won of the Seoul Central Regional Headquarters Customs was booked by the prosecution on charges of bribery and corruption.
Suddenly news came out.
At the same time, Kim Min-ju and Director Ha Seong-il began to focus on the announcer’s voice.
– Chief Customs Officer Ji, who claimed to have been in a traffic accident, was rushed to the hospital and was receiving treatment when he suddenly asked to call the police. He confessed to all his charges on the spot.
– According to a later investigation, Customs Director Ji Bo-won revealed that he took a large amount of cash from the International Hunter Association in exchange for preventing Karma Corporation from being dispatched.
– The fact that the public official in charge of import and export customs clearance committed this act and that the International Hunter Association tried to block the dispatch is being quickly reported in the media around the world, and many citizens cannot help but be shocked due to the global shortage of hunter manpower.
– Meanwhile, he was found seriously injured in a car accident with both legs broken, but it is not said where or how the accident occurred. Police authorities announced that they would further investigate whether there were physical threats and assaults…
“What is that…?”
“No way, the intelligence team…”
Anyway, they caught the tail so quickly?
No, that aside.
Was customs really intertwined with the International Association?
‘What on earth is this…’
It was a time when Kim Min-ju was graduating from school, as it must have been quite a shock when what he had expected actually happened.
“Permission to export has been granted!”
Director Lee Ah-young shouted as he opened the door and came in.
“yes…?”
“As soon as the head of the customs office was booked, he was appointed directly to the Ministry of Strategy and Finance at the discretion of the president. “I just received a call saying that all weapons exports have been approved!”
“…ha.”
I felt like I had barely crawled back from the edge of a cliff.
It’s time to breathe a sigh of relief.
“Okay… now let’s get started.”
“yes!”
“great!”
Soon their eyes sparkled.
***
Headquarters of the International Hunter Association in Paris, France.
A guest visiting this place from afar declared war, so the remaining troops were dispatched in an emergency.
‘No matter how much I think about it…’
In a situation where an unprecedented war could break out the moment someone lifts a single finger, Secretary General Wesley maintained a calm expression.
‘I just can’t understand.’
He was glaring at Kim Jun-woo, who seemed ready to attack him at any moment.
Of course, I understand that Karma Corporation is currently in a difficult situation.
Because I was the one who put them in a corner in the first place.
But that does not mean that there is no way to get to this point.
It’s no one else, it’s Kim Jun-woo.
There would have been other solutions.
However, it was completely incomprehensible that he made such an extreme choice to come here and mention the war.
Doesn’t he know best that this is not the Middle Ages and that this is not something that can be solved by force alone?
Moreover, they, who are in an advantageous position, are doing all kinds of work to prepare for war… There is no way they would go to war with themselves without any countermeasures.
That guy isn’t that stupid.
Secretary General Wesley was unable to move quickly despite Kim Jun-woo’s blatant provocation.
‘There’s definitely something there…’
I had a deep-seated feeling that the moment I moved here, I could get caught up in his pace.
But I couldn’t just keep staring at it like this…
It was a time when I was contemplating for a long time what choice I should make.
“Secretary General.”
The accompanying secretary approached him from behind and called to him quietly.
“Mr. Ji has been discovered. It looks like everything we have been lobbied for and orders received has been blown away. “It is now being reported through Korean media.”
“…what?”
Secretary General Wesley’s eyebrows twitched.
But even for a moment.
‘I see…’
I soon regained my composure.
Yeah, it was something like that.
Kim Jun-woo had no intention of fighting from the beginning.
It was just a smokescreen to waste time and step on my tail.
‘I got caught up again…’
I clicked my tongue in frustration.
“I think it would be best to avoid friction for now. “Now that the tail is revealed, we need to move carefully.”
“…That would be good.”
Secretary General Wesley nodded at the secretary’s words.
This current situation is all planned by that guy.
If we fall for the provocation and start a war here, we will only end up getting caught up in another of that guy’s plans.
I don’t know what it is, but it’s clear that it’s an unusual plan when you see it being provoked so openly.
‘Anyway, he’s someone who can’t predict the future…’
Anyway, if you didn’t know, you didn’t know. Now that you know, there’s no need to get caught.
In that case, it would be wiser to take a step back.
Soon, Secretary General Wesley lowered his voice and asked the secretary.
“How many troops are secured now?”
“Approximately 200,000 people.”
“I guess that’s enough.”
He immediately looked at Kim Jun-woo and smiled.
“Well, let’s stop joking here.”
He soon shrugged his shoulders and withdrew his skill.
“…I beg your pardon?”
“Let’s be satisfied with confirming each other’s skills today. “Isn’t it funny that grown adults fight in front of people?”
“….”
Kim Jun-woo’s eyebrows twitched.
okay.
It must be embarrassing because he didn’t give up even after provoking me like that.
I’m sorry, but I won’t fall for your tricks twice.
“We will consider what you said positively. However, I think it would be a little difficult to re-examine those who were eliminated.”
“….”
“You seem to be misunderstanding something, but we are not preparing for war. “I just filtered out those who don’t fit into being hunters in line with your goals.”
Of course it’s a lie.
He also probably knows this is a lie.
However, even if everyone knows everything, the fact that the Secretary General himself says it out loud has a different meaning.
This is truly an official statement of position.
If you agree too hastily, you will be declaring war on the entire world.
“Anyway, it was nice to meet you today. “We will respond to your suggestions as quickly as possible.”
“…are you saying you will accept it?”
“of course.”
Secretary General Wesley smiled and nodded.
“…All right. “Then what?”
Then Kim Jun-woo also showed off his skills and continued speaking.
“I will know that and wait.”
With a very displeased expression, he turned his back and left the building.
When Secretary General Wesley saw him walking away, he could not hide his smile.
This time, I won’t get caught up in his tricks.
Secretary General Wesley enjoyed a strange sense of victory.

Han Yu-bin and I left the headquarters in silence as the negotiations ended poorly.
“….”
Meanwhile, I was still lost in thought with my brows furrowed.
Because my mind was quite complicated due to what had just happened.
but.
“As expected, it’s amazing.”
“…yes?”
Han Yu-bin suddenly made a noise as if she was happy about the whole situation.
“In the end, you got what you wanted without fighting.”
“…So that’s it.”
“What are you pretending not to know? “It was all planned.”
Then he said something even more unexpected.
“I just received a text message from Lee Ah-young. Now, a high-ranking public official who was acting under orders from the International Association has been booked by the prosecution. Thanks to that, there is no uproar around the world.”
“….”
“You held my attention until I caught the tail, right? “Don’t worry about the other side.”
As I hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to answer, my cell phone rang.
“What happened. Why is there no news?」
He is none other than PB Corporation’s balance team leader and head of the Noah Guild.
It was Noah Westonwood.
“Well… well, it worked out well. So, I think you can step down.”
“what…? “How on earth?!”
“I don’t know. “They suddenly sent it to me and said they would review it.”
“Tsk, I gathered all the people at best.”
“I’m sorry. “I didn’t expect it to end up like this either.”
“it’s okay. “Don’t make me play ball next time.”
“I’ll do it. Anyway, thank you. It must have been a pretty sudden request…”
At that moment, he snorted and hung up without answering.
Is it cool or not?…
“What is it…?”
Han Yu-bin, whose eyes widened as if she had heard the phone call, asked in confusion.
“Didn’t you say you had insurance? Just in case, I gave an order to attack Noah and the entire Noah guild… but I ended up doing nothing.”
“Now wait a minute! “Then I guess I wasn’t trying to waste time…!”
“What are you talking about?”
You’ve been talking nonsense since a while ago.
“I really meant to start a war right there.”
“….”
You took your time trying to catch the tail?
I am not a shaman, so how would I have known whether to catch the tail or not in Korea?
“Well, as you said, I’m glad I got what I wanted without fighting.”
“….”
Han Yu-bin had a half-fazed expression on her face.
‘Well, aside from that…’
Why on earth did Secretary General Wesley obediently grant my request?
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure it out.
You are in an absolutely advantageous position, so why bother taking a step back?
‘I wonder if there is another plan….’
That doesn’t make sense otherwise.
Even doing a favor may have been planned.
Anyway, he’s a guy who can’t predict even an inch ahead.
I took off the crane and shook my head.
Anyway, I’ve finished all my errands, so I’ll rest for a bit and then head home right away…
“By the way.”
Han Yu-bin suddenly opened her mouth in a very serious voice.
Soon she looked straight at me and spoke.
“What do you mean by what you said earlier?”
“…What do you mean?”
“It means that I came to the past through the time stone.”
“….”
Damn it.
I heard it.
“What does it mean to return when you achieve your goal?”
“it’s nothing.”
I tried to ignore it and move on.
“I wonder if that goal is…”
Han Yu-bin started speaking recklessly, standing tall on the spot.
“Does this have something to do with trying to prey on the International Association?”
“….”
“Then if we achieve it….”
She looked at me with an expression I’d never seen before.
“What happens there?”
For the first time since coming here, she asked me who I really was.
