The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 273

“What…?”

Paris, France.

Former French National Assembly and current headquarters of the International Association.

Secretary General Wesley was at work when unbelievable news arrived.

“Representative Emma Lucia… has been confirmed to have died in Japan.”

“Why on earth…? “Did you get caught by Kim Jun-woo?”

“no. They say the operation was perfect….”

After hesitating for a moment, Kate, the executive secretary, carefully continued.

“It seems like he went to find Kim Jun-woo and fought a battle on his own.”

“….”

Secretary General Wesley’s face hardened.

You know best what kind of person she is and what kind of personality she is.

A woman with a stronger desire for power and dominance than anyone else.

He had a personality that did not suit Hunter at all, and that was why he offered him the position of CEO of PB Corporation.

He seemed quite satisfied at first, but that didn’t last long.

As always, I got bored quickly.

She was a woman who always wanted to be above others and confirmed the meaning of her existence by subjugating others…

but she never thought she would end up like this.

No, actually, it wasn’t unexpected.

I knew that it would explode at some point.

But… why now?

Representative Emma was very much needed by the International Association right now.

However, it was not enough to throw ashes on the completed operation, and the greatest force of the International Association committed suicide.

loss?

It was not a situation I could dare express in those words.

“Damn it…”

He clenched his fists as if they were going to crush them.

The purpose of attacking the Vietnam and Japan branches was to isolate WDSO.

Vietnam failed, but if Japan had succeeded at least, subsequent branches would have gained the impetus to proceed one after another.

But if it happens like this…

‘It won’t be possible anymore…’

The biggest problem is that not only is the plan wrong, but PB Corporation is also on the verge of being lost.

If nothing else, PB Corporation must be maintained somehow.

Then…

“First of all… let’s appoint Team Leader Chloe as the representative.”

“That…”

Secretary Kate hesitated and opened her mouth in response to Secretary General Wesley’s instructions.

“Team leader Chloe has also lost contact.”

“…what?”

“It seems that CEO Emma left the organization right after that happened.”

Holy shit.

Secretary General Wesley’s veins stood stiff.

“The situation is not good. Citizen resistance is also growing stronger… Since they have taken over the government, they must somehow increase their power, but if things continue this way, even the associations that are still attached may turn their backs….” Bang –

!!

Secretary General Wesley could not hear anything and threw the phone on his desk. At the same time, the door behind Kate was smashed.

“Do I not know that?”

“…sorry.”

A leader who takes control by force through fear can no longer go back.

Now that he has taken control of the French government and turned the entire international community into his enemy, there is only one thing Secretary General Wesley can do.

To move forward unconditionally.

The reason citizens have not yet revolted is because of fear.

Therefore, I had to somehow maintain a sense of fear.

If the power is weakened even a little or a weakness is discovered, it is all over.

But the current situation is…

‘You’re worse than the neighborhood bastard…’

If you start resisting like this, you will end up as the worst terrorist.

That can’t be possible.

No matter what happens, I can’t allow it to end like this.

“Put the troops on standby.”

“yes…?”

“I think I need to recharge my fear.”

“….”

Secretary Kate immediately knew what those words meant.

Instead of asking for details, I asked key questions.

“…Who will you entrust the command to?”

Secretary General Wesley’s eyes lit up at her question.

“I do it myself.”

Suddenly he got up from his seat.

***

Tokyo Branch, Japan.

Director Lee Ah-young, who had just entered Japan, opened his mouth and handed a sample of the drug to Branch Director Haramura.

“If you take just 5 mg per person, you will be completely immune to Void in the future. Since there are 10,000 people, we just need to start administering the medication to the operations team at the Tokyo branch.”

“When did you make this…?”

“It took about a week.”

“You made this in a week…?”

“Well, a team leader asked me to do it… Thanks to that, I stayed up all week without even going home.”

Director Lee Ah-young answered while glancing at me.

That drug was something I had requested from Director Lee A-young before leaving the country.

It was a neutralizer specifically for voids.

The drug developed this time did not simply have the effect of calming the effects of the drug.

“The void effect can be permanently blocked with just one dose. “This could prevent the spread of drugs.”

“…”

Branch Manager Haramura looked dumbfounded by Director Lee A-young’s explanation.

“After Tokyo, administer the medication in that order: Osaka, Fukuoka, and Hokkaido… and don’t forget to unrank.”

Soon I added an explanation.

“…I understand.”

Branch Manager Haramura nodded slowly.

Well, this will prevent damage caused by void distribution.

That meant we only had to worry about the rest.

Well, as expected, the article about the discovery of a large amount of voids in Branch Manager Haramura’s home was published as scheduled.

But he was never arrested.

Because facts about PB Corporation and CEO Ema quickly began to spread throughout the media around the world.

Of course, there was no way there was evidence since he disappeared without a trace… but

Team Leader Chloe helped with that.

He faithfully portrayed the role of an employee who felt guilty about his actions and decided to blow the whistle.

Well, he said it was a commemoration of his resurrection from death, but from what I see, it was more like a final act of trust before recruiting him.

High-ranking Japanese figures linked to the International Association were also arrested one after another.

According to Branch Manager Haramura, it is the largest gate in history.

We’re currently investigating additional distributed voids… but there shouldn’t be any difficulties.

As a result, we succeeded in protecting the Japanese branch.

Not only that, PB Corporation, with which I continued my terrible relationship here as well as in my previous life, was also disbanded.

Of course, since it is an organization that is essential to the International Association, they could try to keep it going by appointing someone else as the representative… but that would also take time.

“Thank you.”

Branch Manager Haramura bowed his head.

And then he spoke quietly.

“I know what the Japanese branch did in the past. To this extent, for the sake of an association in a country with deep resentment…”

“You must be misunderstanding something.”

I interrupted him and answered in a firm voice.

“What good did I have to help Japan? “I just came forward because if the Japanese branch were to collapse, it would be a huge loss for us as well.”

“….”

“The reason why the branch president did not hand it over to the International Association until the end was not out of loyalty or anything like that, but wasn’t it just a choice he made out of consideration for Japan?’

He nodded slightly.

“I helped each person in a way that was beneficial to them. And I think our relationship is still just that good.”

“….”

Although the line was clearly drawn, Branch Manager Haramura still smiled slightly.

He also seemed to feel comfortable with that.

“Then, well… I guess I delivered the neutralizing agent, so I’ll go back soon…”

That’s when the work was finished.

“Where are we going!”

A woman burst into the office and raised her voice.

Blonde young woman.

She is none other than…

“You’re not trying to pretend not to know, are you?”

PB Corporation’s bank item management team leader.

It was Chloe.

“What what…? Why does that person come here?!”

Director Lee Ah-young asked, startled by her sudden appearance.

Kim Min-joo, who was roughly aware of the situation, also showed a cold expression.

Well, it was natural that it wasn’t welcomed.

No matter how much they helped us this time, it still didn’t change the fact that they tried to kill everyone through a hostile takeover.

As I hesitated to answer for a moment, Director Lee Ah-young again raised his voice in excitement.

“Why did that person come here?! What did you do without me?!”

“…I made some deals.”

“transaction? What’s the deal?!”

“In return for helping us this time, we want you to plug it into the Eclipse…”

“Crazy!”

Lee Ah-young’s eyes were round.

“Are you really crazy?! “Did you forget that I was planning to bury our entire operation team in the sea off Incheon?!”

“….”

“and! Do you really think a person like that would turn his back on the International Association?! That bitch clearly has another plan! no way. “Not like this!”

My eardrums are going to be torn…

Well, I understand why you might react that way, but if you calm down and talk slowly…

“Are you doing this because you’re scared because it seems like you’re more capable than you? “Are you afraid that if I go in, your spot will be taken away?”

At that time, Chloe openly provoked her.

Then, Director Lee Ah-young let out a laugh as if she was genuinely appalled.

“Are you just talking about me? under! “I’m so dumbfounded!”

“Otherwise, there is no reason to keep it in check like this.”

“What did you hear me say! “The person who tried to kill us now says he wants to work with us, but who wants to take him?!”

“No one died. “Then it’s done, isn’t it?”

“Wow, this is my first time seeing such a crazy bitch…?”

The atmosphere between the two began to become increasingly heated.

They raised their teeth as if they were going to eat each other at any moment.

I just watched without any intention of stopping.

Because I was secretly curious who would win if they fought.

But then.

“teacher.”

Minju Kim, who had been silent, cautiously opened her mouth.

“Honestly… I don’t like it either. Of course, since I am from PB Corporation, I can receive information about the International Association and Secretary-General Wesley, but working with us is a little…” “

Hmm.”

She also seemed to be of the same opinion.

Well, that’s definitely true.

Even if the previous incident can somehow be overcome, there is no guarantee that it will not happen again in the future.

Or we can’t rule out the possibility that he’s a spy.

It is true that working together is not trustworthy in one way or another.

“I’ll tell you up front, I was just doing my job. To be honest, even though I was the team leader, it was the team with the least power, and above all, it was a place where the CEO’s word was absolute. “There were no personal feelings.”

Chloe must have noticed my gaze at that time and said something without even asking.

“That doesn’t mean what they did goes away.”

“sure? Are you planning to back off the deal now?”

“I would like to, if possible. “It seems like the employees don’t like it either.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Chloe shrugged and continued.

“Of course, I will be found dead within a week.”

“….”

“Hehe, he was so cold-blooded that he sent a helpless woman to her death. Sobbing.”

Holy crap.

Have you lost your mind?

‘You’re out of your mind…’

She was pretending to cry very openly, then glanced at me and raised the corners of her mouth.

I looked at that figure in silence and thought about it for a while.

Meanwhile, Lee Ah-young, head of the headquarters, was constantly shouting from the side, and Kim Min-ju also quietly expressed his opposition.

Let’s talk like that.

“Tsk, I get it. “I will add one more condition.”

Soon, Team Leader Chloe opened her mouth again as if she was frustrated.

“What conditions do you mean?”

“Since we failed to take over the branch and PB Corporation has disappeared, Secretary General Wesley is no different from being cornered.”

“Who doesn’t know that?”

“It’s a situation where they stage a coup and take over the government. “There will be a need to maintain power somehow… As it is, it will only weaken it.”

“It’s rather fortunate. There is no way citizens will miss that opportunity, so the influence will be further reduced.”

“That’s the problem.”

Team leader Chloe soon became very serious and pointed her finger at me.

“The Association used fear and power to get this far. Because of this, the situation where citizens no longer fear themselves is a situation that must be avoided. “There is a need to incite fear somehow.”

“…What does that mean?”

“Sooner or later Secretary General Wesley will go to war.”

My eyebrows twitched at her words.

“It means that one country will be selected and used as a stage to showcase the International Association’s power. There would be no purpose and no mercy.”

“….”

I looked at her intently, sparing an answer.

“And I know which countries Secretary-General Wesley will attack.”

“…!”

“How can this be enough to make you feel like recruiting?”

She shrugged her shoulders.

I touched my forehead for a moment and gathered my thoughts.

Of course, there is no basis for what she says.

But… it certainly makes sense.

Secretary General Wesley does not have many options as his thoroughly prepared plan has failed and he has also lost PB Corporation.

And if what she said is true…

“…good.”

After thinking for a while, I opened my mouth.

“First…let’s go to Korea.”
