The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 240

Sicily Island, Italy.

Section Chief Kang Jae-seok and I left Guardiano’s headquarters and entered the streets again.

“Who on earth provided raw materials to the cartel?”

Part leader Kang Jae-seok cautiously opened his mouth.

“In the first place, excluding the Central African region, the world produces less than 5 tons a year, right?”

“You know very well.”

“Haha… I dealt with fractals a few times when I was working in smuggling…”

He scratches his head with a puzzled expression.

I’m really proud….

“Well, as you said, 80% of the fractals excavated around the world come from Central Africa, and the remaining 20% are rarely found in other parts of the world. That 20% is also split between other associations and private companies, so I can’t say for sure who provided the support, but…”

I continued, stroking my chin for a moment.

“Considering that it has only been half a year since we established an integrated branch in Central Africa… I can get a rough idea.”

“yes?”

“Where did you manage Central Africa before us?”

“…!”

Only then did Kang Jae-seok also seem to notice something.

Well, even if they didn’t take this approach in the first place, no matter how you look at them, they are the only ones who can provide raw materials.

‘I’m so terribly tangled up…’

I let out an annoyed sigh.

They barely managed to prevent people from leaving, but now they are distributing drugs?

In terms of severity, this is actually more dangerous.

If we don’t stop this incident in the beginning… things beyond our imagination will happen.

An unranked person trying to somehow obtain drugs to become a hunter.

Cartels and mafia will quickly expand their power to keep up with demand.

Hunters who are conscious of the unranked ranks that are rising and will try their hand at drugs.

If the worst three factors are repeated, society will truly become a chaos.

A drugged person with superpowers is walking around in the middle of the street?

This is no different from just letting a tiger loose on the street.

And all that responsibility… will be placed on us again.

‘How far are they going to drag us out?…’

At that time, I was muttering while sticking my tongue out.

“CEO!”

“Are you feeling okay?”

“They didn’t do anything nonsense!”

The intelligence team members who had been on standby rushed out as if they had been waiting.

And in between.

“…What happened?”

Yubin Han also approached me and asked.

She also looked very worried, but she quickly smiled, probably because I was in better shape than I thought.

“First of all, the bait was good. “They said they would contact me separately before meeting with the cartel tomorrow.”

“thank god.”

“It might be a problem after we meet.”

“Do you have any plans in mind?”

“Do you have any plans?”

All you have to do is beat them up and find out where they are based.

“Cartel base… If we find out the Void manufacturing plant, we will hand over the information to Interpol.”

“Interpol? “Aren’t we going there ourselves?”

“This is a market where mafias around the world are turning on their eyes. “If you do something that stands out for no reason, it will be a bother.”

“Hmm…”

Han Yu-bin seemed shaken by something.

Well, I understand. Whatever it is, I’m sure I’ll handle it myself.

Still, I can’t help it.

It’s no good for us to be involved too deeply in this world.

“Then what are the Guardianos going to do? “If they found out that they had deceived them, they wouldn’t stay silent.”

“Don’t worry. “I will destroy myself on my own.”

I shrugged my shoulders and continued.

“Looking at it, it looks like the relationship with the parent organization is worse than I thought. It seems like they are trying to push them out somehow… but the best weapon is about to arrive, so it will be a full-fledged war.”

Of course, Guardiano will never actually hold a weapon.

They will wage war recklessly, believing in imaginary weapons that they cannot hold for the rest of their lives, and thus they will eat and eat each other and destroy themselves.

First of all, the foundation has been laid with this.

The rest depends on what you do tomorrow.

“Then… let’s go back to the dorm. “There is a lot to prepare.”

“yes!”

“All right!”

The information team members responded in loud voices.

***

A hotel located on the island of Sicily.

It was a time when I was lying in bed and organizing my future events in my head.

Knock knock knock-.

A loud knocking sound woke me from my thoughts.

I got up with a sigh.

Thinking it was Han Yu-bin, I quietly went to the front door and opened the door.

“Are you busy?”

Information team leader Hong Du-sik was standing there.

“I’ve been calling for a while, but there’s no answer.”

“Oh, I’m sorry. “I was thinking about something… but what’s going on?”

“It’s nothing special… I have something to talk about.”

Soon, Team Leader Hong naturally came into my room and sat down on a chair.

“That’s right…”

He then looked at me carefully for a moment.

“What on earth do you want to do?”

“…yes?”

I asked a question I couldn’t understand.

“Oh, of course, I should have listened to Yag too. Are you talking about trying to eat up the International Association and become the second International Association?”

“…yes. That’s right.”

“Then, of course, he will become the Secretary General.”

“Unless there is no other suitable candidate.”

“ha ha ha! Don’t say nonsense. “Who else but you would put your butt in such an annoying spot?”

He tilted his head upward and laughed cheerfully.

But even for a moment.

“So what is the reason?”

Soon, he looked at me with a very serious expression and asked another question.

“Why?”

“If there is a purpose, of course there has to be a reason, right? “If your goal is to become rich, there is a reason you want to make a lot of money and live comfortably.”

“….”

My eyebrows twitched at the question whose purpose I could not understand.

Isn’t the reason obvious?

After becoming Secretary General, I return to my original position.

But I can’t say this as it is.

If you go back after putting in so much work, who would send you off kindly?

Maybe those who have been on my side all along will try to hinder me.

That was the reason why I didn’t tell Han Yubin until the end.

No one else knows, but that guy is a person who will talk about responsibility and do whatever he can to stop me.

‘Even if I can’t tell you everything…’

It’s such a serious reaction that it feels like lying.

Should I just give you a little hint?

“I’m sorry, but the reason is not as just as Team Leader Hong expects. It’s not for the greater good. If I had to really ask… it’s more of a personal reason.”

“Do you think the other guys are trying to drive out the International Association, which puts citizens in danger, and establish order in subjugation around the world? If you just listen to the words, you are a very hero, a hero.”

“…well.”

I smiled slightly.

“I’d like to leave you thinking like that for the time being.”

“…draw.”

He nodded.

“Anyway, it’s not for as righteous a reason as people say, is it? “It’s just for personal purposes and people misunderstood?”

“yes.”

“With testimony?”

“…?”

He raised the corners of his mouth and continued speaking.

“I don’t care what other guys say about him. I only believe what I see with my own eyes. “But to me, it looks like he’s just pretending to be a bad guy.”

“….”

“Pretend you’re not interested in other people. Pretending to be merciless, pretending to act for the individual rather than the greater good… Pretending that you are the most important thing. “Something like that.”

Team leader Hong Du-sik said those words and pointed his finger at me.

“But the way I see it, he can act bad, but he can’t be a bad guy.”

“…ha ha ha.”

I ended up laughing.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. “You’re acting like a bad person.”

“That’s enough. “If you want to pretend not to know, just think I’m talking nonsense.”

He spoke as if he knew everything.

My expression gradually hardened at the unexpected story.

“I don’t know what happened to him or what he was really thinking. “But… I’ve seen you so far… you’re so far back.”

“So soft…?”

“Draw. “It’s very withdrawn.”

Soon he took out a cigarette and continued speaking.

“The International Association is not afraid of any means. But he always tries to move as little as possible.”

“There’s no need to make it a big deal…”

“You don’t want to lose the people around you, do you?”

“…!”

What is this human?

How on earth….

“Becoming the leader without sacrificing those beneath you is an absurd contradiction. “He’s being ridiculously greedy right now.”

“….”

“Of course I understand. But… if you continue to do this, you won’t be able to become the village head, let alone the secretary general.”

I kept my mouth shut and glared at him.

Then he calmly crossed his arms and continued talking.

“Now you will have to make a choice. The Secretary General can either give up cleanly and take care of his surroundings, or he can make up his mind and go to the end. Well… the choice is up to you, but if you plan on going to the end…”

He trailed off for a moment.

“Now you can’t just pretend to be bad.”

He looked straight at me and said those words.

“If you have to achieve that goal no matter what happens, whether it’s for personal reasons or whatever… you’re going to have to become a real bad guy from now on.”

“….”

“Oh, I’m done with what I wanted to say, so I’ll just go and write. “You should rest well too.”

Team Leader Hong stood up as if he had finally finished speaking.

And I kept my eyes fixed on the floor without any intention of answering.

Team Leader Hong also left the room without saying anything more.

‘….’

After that, I remained in the same position for a while, lost in thought.

***

At the same time, Han Yu-bin’s accommodation.

She was also deep in thought as she lay spread out on the bed.

That thought has been running through my mind ever since I visited the Lions Clubs International headquarters.

I’ve been thinking the same thing for a few days now… but I just couldn’t come to a conclusion on my own.

Finally, after much deliberation, she took out her cell phone.

“…What are you doing at this hour?”

I heard General Manager Lee Ah-young’s voice sounding as if I had heard it in my sleep.

“Oh, it’s nothing else, I just want to ask you something…”

“What is it…?”

“I mean that time slot…”

“…? Why is there a time stone all of a sudden?”

“Can people go to the past using it?”

「…?」

At that moment, Han Yu-bin belatedly realized her mistake.

It’s not that it wasn’t, but the question you just asked was too direct.

“Oh, I’m sorry. “The thing right now is just…”

“What were you two talking about?”

“…Yes?”

Han Yu-bin’s eyebrows twitched at the unexpected question.

“Didn’t you talk about something with Junwoo? “Why are you suddenly asking that?”

“…I don’t understand. “Why is that person’s story being told here?”

“No, that’s it….”

The moment Director Lee Ah-young uttered those words.

“Junwoo asked the same question before.”

“….”

Han Yubin’s expression hardened.

“Anyway, in theory…”

“That’s okay.”

“…Yes?”

“I’ll hang up.”

“Why are you waking up a sleeping person…?”

Director Lee Ah-young complained, but Han Yu-bin just ignored it and hung up first.

And the small doubts that lingered in my head soon turned into confidence.

okay.

It didn’t make sense otherwise.

‘Does it make sense to know in advance about drugs that haven’t even been reported?…’

This isn’t the only case.

If you think about it, all of his actions up until now are at a level that cannot be understood by common sense.

‘What on earth is this…’

Han Yu-bin shook her head as if she couldn’t believe it, even as she thought to herself.

But if Kim Jun-woo is really a person who came to the past through the time stone… and if he really achieves his goal and goes back to the way it was…

then what happens here?

‘No, more than that…’

If other people find out about this… will they let Kim Jun-woo go away?

The moment that thought crossed her mind, Yubin Han jumped up from her bed.

no.

Everyone will do their best to prevent it from going back to the way it was.

Including myself.

Now Kim Jun-woo has become indispensable. Everyone relies on him and everyone trusts him.

Karma Corporation without him… No, I can’t even imagine the bottom of the subjugation.

Of course I can’t let it go back.

But that doesn’t stop him.

How dare you do that?

It’s all thanks to him that he helped me out of the trauma I experienced at the American branch and that I was able to continue working even after Hunter was expelled…how can I stop him?

Still, I hope Kim Jun-woo doesn’t go back to where he came from.

But there is no justification or right to stop him.

So, what choice should he make when he really has his goal right in front of him?
