The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 247

“…What is this?”
Italian branch of the International Hunter Association.
The manager there, Martin, checked the contents of the bag that Prime Minister Alfredo had brought and asked in a puzzled voice.
His face was stiff for some reason.
Prime Minister Alfred looked straight into the face of Director Martin and opened his mouth.
“Octaboidamphetamine. It is a drug called Void in the background. “I heard that it has the effect of amplifying the skills of people with special abilities in a short period of time.”
“….”
Branch Manager Martin held back his answer for a moment.
“Where did you get this…?”
I asked with a slightly trembling voice.
“Karma Corporation recovered the goods that Guardiano traded with the Mexican cartel.”
“Karma Corporation…?”
“They said they would leave the disposal to us. Well, from their perspective, just having it would be a problem.”
Prime Minister Alfred continued calmly.
“But as you know, the process for disposing of it here is quite complicated… and above all, don’t you know that this place isn’t very clean either?”
“I heard that there is no one who has no ties to the mafia.”
“It’s just a possibility, but if the dirty guys steal this again, it’s going to be a really big problem.”
“So you’re saying you’ll leave it to me?”
Prime Minister Alfred responded with a smile.
“Is there anyone more trustworthy than Branch Manager Martin?”
“….”
Branch Manager Martin’s face hardened.
My mind started to get complicated.
Not only did the Void that Guardiano must have appear before his eyes, but the Prime Minister brought it himself.
No matter how I looked at it, it was clear that this was not an ordinary day.
Branch Manager Martin thought for a moment about what to do with this.
“All right. “Let us handle it well.”
I eventually accepted it, not knowing whether it would be poison or benefit.
“Then please do me a favor.”
“…yes.”
Prime Minister Alfredo left the office immediately after leaving those words.
After he left, Branch Manager Martin opened the door slightly and looked at the hallway one more time.
After confirming that no one was outside, he locked the office door and took out his cell phone.
“This is Martin, Secretary General.”
“Ah yes. “What’s going on?”
Secretary General Wesley’s voice was heard.
“Nothing else… Prime Minister Alfredo brought Boyd.”
“…Yes?”
“It is said that Karma Corporation has recovered the goods that Guardiano traded with the cartel… Since the amount is considerable, it seems that it is the entire amount of the transaction.”
“Why did you bring it to you?”
“It would be difficult for the government to handle it, so they asked me to dispose of it. But it seems a bit of a waste to throw it away… I didn’t know what to do, so I contacted you.”
「….」
The Secretary General hesitated to answer for a moment.
Then, Branch Manager Martin opened his mouth again.
“Weren’t you planning to distribute it throughout Europe within this month? “It will be quite late to manufacture this amount again.”
“…I guess so.”
“More than anything, if Karma has already smelled it, trafficking will become more difficult in the future. No matter how much I think about it, it’s better not to dispose of it…”
As Branch Manager Martin trailed off, Secretary General Wesley took a deep breath.
“Did you hear that a battle with Karma has just occurred in Sicily?”
“Yes? Oh yes… I heard.”
“From what I heard, CEO Kim Jun-woo has lost a lot of strength, but even so, it won’t be enough for us to win.”
“….”
Branch Manager Martin reserved his answer.
I had no idea what I wanted to say.
“Of course, if God helps Emma miraculously win, or if CEO Kim Jun-woo goes on a rampage and causes harm to the citizens, Karma Corporation will fall into the abyss in an instant. But if not…”
Secretary General Wesley continued quietly.
“We will lose both Boyd and PB Corporation.”
“…I know.”
“But if the Void is in your hands again, there’s no need to take the risk.”
For a moment, a small laugh can be heard through the cell phone.
Eventually, Secretary General Wesley revealed his true feelings.
“If Void is distributed throughout Europe as planned, it will only be a matter of time before it spreads to Russia, the Middle East, and Northeast Asia. If that happens, we will be able to take down the Karma Corporation without having to make any sacrifices.”
“I agree.”
“Then we are quite lucky that Boyd came back to us.”
“…”
Branch Manager Martin smiled slightly at the fact that the Secretary General accepted his opinion.
“Let’s send someone right away. It is risky for you to have direct contact with the mafia, so if you hand over Void to that person, he will forward it to Il Corpo.”
“You mean Il Corpo? “It’s not Guardiano…?”
At that time, Branch Manager Martin asked in a puzzled voice.
“yes. Is there any problem?」
“No, it’s not a problem. Aren’t those Il Corpo guys a bit dangerous? It’s already the largest organization in the south, so there’s no place it can’t reach, but if it even takes control of Void…” ”
Are you worried that its power will grow even more?” ”
…That’s right.”
He answered in a hushed voice.
Of course, in order to distribute Boyd throughout Europe, a connection with the Mafia was necessary.
Although Il Corpo and Guardiano were listed as candidates for that connection. Il Corpo judged that it would become dangerous if his power grew further, so he ultimately chose Guardiano.
Afterwards, Branch Manager Martin had an employee leak information about Boyd to Guardiano.
After receiving the information, Lovetro immediately contacted the Mexican cartel and attempted to make a deal.
I had no idea that I was being used as a distribution tool by the International Association.
But why bother….
“Why are you suddenly trying to change your distribution policy?”
“Didn’t you just say that it was an item recovered from the Void Karma Corporation?”
“That’s right.”
“Since they have already caught our eye once, we may be keeping an eye on them. If you leave it to Guardiano again and the Karma guys get caught again… they will catch you.” ”
Ah…”
“To put it bluntly, Guardiano is still a powerless bastard, right? Given the situation, it is important to distribute it throughout the region as quickly as possible, but for that, I can trust Il Corpo.”
“I’m sorry for my sin. “I don’t even know if there is such a deep meaning…”
Branch Manager Martin’s voice slithered away.
“it’s okay. Then… Please keep your items safe until our people arrive.”
“Would you mind?”
He hung up the phone like that.
Branch Manager Martin heaved a sigh of relief at the thought that the matter had been resolved well.
When Prime Minister Alfredo brought in Boyd, I was frankly appalled.
Because of the relationship between the branch and the International Association, I thought it was discovered that I was involved in the distribution of Void.
Moreover, the fact that the Void that Guardiano was supposed to have was here also meant that the plan had gone awry.
So I didn’t know what to do, so I just broke into a cold sweat…
but it seemed like the prime minister didn’t know anything.
If so, you may be able to make up for it.
All you have to do is hand it over to the mafia without being noticed.
For a moment, I wondered what would happen, but it worked out well.
At that thought, Director Martin slumped down on the backrest.
Not knowing that his every word was being recorded by a listening device under his desk.
***
“Phew….”
I let out a deep sigh.
Soon, the black air that had covered the surroundings cleared, and a blindingly bright light poured out.
The first thing that caught my eye was the devastated scene.
“….”
“….”
Everyone there was silent, looking at the same scene.
But even for a moment.
“…What happened?”
Soon, Minju Kim broke the silence and spoke in a low voice.
“I don’t know.”
I answered calmly.
Unfortunately, the battle never ended.
It’s not that it wasn’t, it was that moment when I squeezed out my last remaining strength and gave it my all.
Someone delivered something to Representative Emma, and right after that, she suddenly withdrew her powers.
Then, after looking at me carefully, he smiled and turned his back.
Everyone was equally embarrassed by the sudden situation.
Anyway, CEO Emma led the balance team and left the scene without any regrets.
The scene left us alone.
It was a time when everyone was trying to understand the situation with dumbfounded expressions.
“Can I just let it go?”
Noah asked as he approached.
“It was a chance to see the end. “If I let it go like that, it will definitely hold me back again.”
“….”
I saved my answer.
Know.
Who doesn’t know? This is an opportunity to uproot PB Corporation, which has been hindering me for so long.
Of course, I also wanted to see the end here.
However…
“If 10 more seconds had passed… I would have been in danger too.”
“….”
He had already reached his limit in his fight with Han Yu-bin.
Even if the priest provided first aid, it was only a temporary measure.
In that situation, I brought out my full power.
The only thing I could do was maintain my strength, let alone fight.
If she had pushed on to the end instead of retreating…
‘I would have never seen a good situation.’
With that thought in mind, I stared blankly at the place where Representative Emma had disappeared.
I also felt like a chimney, but there was nothing I could do about it.
If you overthink the ending, something bigger may happen.
It may have been the case in the past, but taking risks in the current situation is not a good choice.
‘More than anything, I’m not doing this alone…’
I looked around.
The entire operation team, including Kim Min-ju and Han Yu-bin, were silent with stern faces.
Immediately after the battle was over, he seemed to feel a sense of desolation, emptiness, and anxiety.
“What should I do now?”
Minju Kim asked again.
“We’ve done everything we can right now. All that remains is to hope that headquarters has come up with a plan.”
No matter how much I think about it, there is only one reason why CEO Emma went back without seeing the end.
There is a way to destroy us without having to end here.
For example, they are now able to carry out their plan to distribute Void again, or they have already recruited the relevant people and are ready to bury us.
In that case, there is no need to increase unnecessary sacrifices here.
‘If that’s the case, we should prepare too…’
First, we entrusted Director Lee Ah-young with investigating the evidence and related personnel that the International Association is involved in the distribution of voids, and we started from the cartel’s headquarters….
“Representative!”
It was then.
I didn’t know where he had been, but Kang Jae-seok, a member of the intelligence team, came rushing over and called me.
“What is it?”
“War has broken out between Guardiano and Il Corpo!”
“…yes?”
suddenly?
“I thought Il Corpo had taken Void, so I raided their base… It is said that the item was indeed discovered there.”
“…?”
I quickly shook my head at his words.
‘The Void we recovered fell into the Il Corpo guys…’
Is that why the balance team retreated?
If the largest mafia in the south becomes a distributor, we will be able to distribute throughout Europe in an instant without having to stop us here.
The fact that it was handed over to the mafia so quickly means that the Italian branch was also involved in this matter.
Are we going to push them in while we have time to sort this out?
However, it cannot be a coincidence that the void flowed there at this timing.
Someone intentionally moved to give the International Association an advantage.
‘No, no…’
If he really wanted to gain an advantage, he wouldn’t have done something stupid like letting Void flow into Il Corpo.
This… is probably a ploy to make them think that they have gained an advantage by handing Void back into their hands.
But who and for what reason…?
Take a moment to gather your thoughts.
As I realized what was going on, I smiled slightly.
“It looks like headquarters took some action.”
Then we can’t rest either.
“It’s okay to say this as soon as work is over, but everyone will have to work overtime starting today.”
If we deliberately released the void again, we would definitely be caught.
Boyd falls into the hands of the mafia again.
War with Guardiano and Il Corpo.
And the international association and its Italian branch are supporting the distribution business.
The moment all these details are revealed… an all-out war will begin.
