The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 58

058

058

Several weeks have passed since a sudden storm struck the Korean Association, but the aftermath showed no signs of abating.

The biggest issue is the revelation of corruption, big and small, one after another.

‘Association Gate’ has come to affect the political world.

Some branch leaders colluded with city council candidates to arbitrarily adjust the amount of dungeon raids in the city, or something like that.

‘Well, it happens often, so it’s nothing new.’

The use of dungeons as a campaign weapon by conservatives has a long history. This is only the first time I got caught.

Thanks to this, all branches were investigated by prosecutors and there was no chaos at the government audit hearing.

The sighs of the newly launched planning headquarters can be heard up to here.

Of course, it doesn’t have much to do with me.

Because there were more things to pay attention to internally at the operations headquarters than that.

Naturally, this incident brought about big and small changes in the operation headquarters.

First, as Director Lee Du-sik had predicted, Director Seo Min-cheol flew to the Ulleungdo branch.

Seo Min-cheol was not a hunter, so if he had been fired, he would have gone to work as a team leader at a small or medium-sized company and spent his last years listening to regrets.

In the end, I guess I was fortunate to remain in the association.

Following this, Soo-yong Lee was transferred to the Asan branch in South Chungcheong Province.

It was a fairly light disposition considering he was one of the starting points of this gate.

He seemed to know that too, so he accepted it without saying anything.

A large-scale personnel appointment was made among the hunters, and Kim Min-ju was assigned as the team leader to the newly organized Operation Team 1.

The guy who was a B-level hunter just half a year ago is now the team leader of the most elite team in the Korean Association.

In addition, he took first place with an overwhelming score in the recent ranking evaluation, becoming the fourth A-rank hunter in Korea. It was ranked 4th in the country.

There was a lot of fuss among his colleagues for a while, but he himself didn’t seem to be very impressed.

‘Well, I’m not the type to really care about rank.’

Above all, he’s not the kind of guy who will only end up at A rank.

Meanwhile, the number of applicants for the cleaning team has steadily increased, and now they are even conducting open recruitment.

As a result, a total of 10 cleaning teams were created.

So-yeon Moon and Sang-hyuk Han were offered team leader positions for teams 7 and 8, respectively, but for some reason, both declined.

In the support team, Director Kang Hyeon-sook was caught up in the gate and was blown away, and Lee A-young took over.

There were no major changes to the control team other than the replacement of some of the personnel involved in the gate.

This is as much as listing the major ones.

This is a time that can truly be called a period of upheaval. The person who handled all of this administrative work

was none other than me.

“It’s hard to quit the company…”

Some people are struggling to get into the company and overcome the hellish competition, but others are worried because they can’t get there.

I sat down at my office desk and stroked my hair.

There was a mountain of documents on the desk that still needed to be reviewed.

On the mother-of-pearl nameplate next to him was an unnecessarily long title engraved: ‘Chief of Operations, Korea Ability Dimension Association.’

The more I think about it, the more ridiculous it becomes.

What kind of organization would appoint a person who will leave the company in a month to the position of general manager?

I checked again to see if I could really resign in a month, just in case, and the president of the association smiled and said, “If nothing happens.”

If nothing happens…

So, on the other hand, doesn’t that mean that if something goes wrong, you won’t accept your resignation?

If I’m not careful, I may not even be able to get to the international association and will have to rot for years in this useless, high-ranking position.

I only have 5 years, so I can’t waste my time on such meaningless things.

Discharge without accident.

No, I left the company without incident.

No matter what happens, you have to spend this month quietly.

For a week, I just sat quietly and worked.

I’m stuck in the office all day, just looking at paper, to the point where I’m going crazy.

I told you everything because I really missed cleaning.

‘Damn it…’

Of course, there are definitely benefits to being the head of the division this time.

[Unlock conditions achieved]

[Dungeon cleaning crew’s average annual salary is over 100 million won]

[Acquired skill: Fallen Angel – Unlocked.] [

Competition rate for joining the dungeon cleaning team is over 30:1]

[Acquired skill: Limit Break – Unlocked.]

[Achieved 2nd place in job preference for Dungeon Cleaners in their 20s]

[Acquired Skill: Destroyer – Unlocked.]

[Dungeon Cleaner Full-time Job Conversion Rate Over 50%]

[Acquired Skill: Rolling Paper – Unlocked.]

And so on….

I was able to unlock most of the skills.

In fact, rather than saying it was unlocked, it would be more correct to say that I achieved it all artificially.

Now, I am in the position of head of the division.

Operational Control, Support, and Cleaning The head of the operations headquarters who can manage all four organizations.

Raising a cleaning team was easier than lifting a finger and setting conditions.

[Currently reached unofficial S rank]

[Currently unofficial 1st in domestic ranking and 37th in world ranking]

Looking at that phrase in the system window, I seriously considered registering for the rank.

In the first place, the first goal was to unlock skills and become a hunter again.

‘But considering the scope of my activities, it might be better not to register…’

If you think about it that way, I wonder what benefit there is to becoming a hunter now.

Like it or not, unlike hunters who are limited to subjugation, I am now in a position where I can do anything.

It was a time when I was having some personal worries.

Knock-

“Can I come in? “Director.”

“yes. “Please come in.”

A woman came into the office with a knock and bowed lightly.

With my promotion this time, he was the newly assigned aide to Shin Su-ji.

“This is a plan to subdue 10 teams for next month’s operation. “You have to pay within today so the control team can set a schedule and collect information.”

She placed the payment documents on the desk.

I scribbled my signature without even looking.

“It’s done.”

“….”

An expression that makes you wonder what a human being is doing.

But what can you do?

What do I know about next month’s plan? If I just survive this month, it’s over.

“Do you have anything else to report?”

“…yes. This time, a request was made to expand the item research facility from the support team. Don’t you have the time stone you obtained during the last joint operation? “I would like to study it, but they say the conditions are not suitable.”

“What about the plan?”

“They said it was sent by email.”

I immediately checked the email and opened the attached file.

In the plan written in PPT, the necessary equipment and personnel budget were written in quite detail.

Just looking at it, it was Director Lee Ah-young’s skill.

As I was roughly reading it, Shin Su-ji’s aide added an explanation.

“If a research facility is built, it will definitely be beneficial in the long run, but the estimated budget alone is over 50 billion won. I guess I’d rather dismiss it…”

“How much of the budget is left for the operations headquarters?”

“There is approximately 82 billion left.”

“Go ahead.”

“yes yes?! Then next month’s operational budget will be at risk…”

“It doesn’t matter. “Go ahead.”

This time, he looked like he was crazy.

Of course, there was no way I could have been this angry.

“And speaking of which, let’s also completely replace the control team’s equipment. “Communication keeps getting cut off and dungeon mapping sometimes has errors, so it’s time to change.”

“Oh yes… we can do as much as we can from the remaining budget….”

“Without that, let’s get the next quarter’s budget in advance and proceed. “I will tell the president of the association.”

“…yes.”

“And isn’t the cleaning crew’s equipment too analog? It’s a certain era, but people still work wearing protective clothing and holding brooms. “If this has happened, please provide the cleaning team with a high-tech suit.”

“….”

Silence continued for a moment.

Afterwards, Shin Su-ji’s aide reluctantly nodded and left the office.

I leaned back on the soft chair and let out a long sigh.

Just as I was about to take a breather, the office door opened again.

“How are you worthy of being the head of the division?”

This time it was Pyeon Chang-hyeon, the control team leader.

“Yeah whatever. so so.”

“haha! “For all that, you don’t look very good.”

“Because they were placed arbitrarily from above.”

Team leader Pyeon Chang-hyeon laughed out loud.

“So, what is going on here? Is something wrong?”

“Yes, well… if it’s a problem, it’s a problem.”

“What’s going on?”

“Um… to put it bluntly.”

Soon he spoke with a light sigh.

“This is dangerous.”

“yes…?”

“They say the operation team has been reorganized in one way or another, but too many hunters have left due to the influence of this gate. “With the current number of personnel, problems will arise starting from next week’s operation.”

It was already known that this incident had created quite a few vacancies in the operations team.

However, I didn’t think it was that serious.

Speaking of latte, we conquered the Red Dungeon with 10 people.

“Our analysis showed that we need to add at least 32 more people to reach a stable level.”

“Hunter is widespread and widespread, so is there a problem?”

“The problem is that those hunters don’t want to come to the association.”

“…Is that so?”

“The image of the association has deteriorated a lot due to this gate incident. Even if you come in, it’s a bit of a surprise, but maybe that’s natural.”

“Hmm…”

Anyway, the ships called.

“First of all, it was not good to hire new employees. What you can do right now is scout for guilds or freelancers. “I plan to start tomorrow.”

“Is it that urgent? “I don’t think it’s to the point where the operation can’t be done at all.”

“It’s at a level where we can somehow return, but as I reported last time, an alien wave was detected near Incheon Port this time.”

“…?”

I don’t remember hearing it at all.

“Don’t you remember? “At that time, he even approved the report.”

“Ah ah… it’s flying. Yes, it definitely was.”

Damn, I guess I’ll have to read it next time.

“In our opinion, it is expected to be an underwater dungeon.”

“An underwater dungeon?”

Without realizing it, my eyebrows narrowed.

Underwater dungeon.

A dungeon that appears under the sea. Basically, only hunters capable of underwater combat are selected as a punitive force, but the reality is that there are not many hunters with skills related to underwater breathing.

Since it is almost impossible to check whether there are any remaining monsters even after subjugation, a lot of secondary damage occurs.

If such a dungeon is scheduled to appear, it is true that it is urgent to fill the number of people…

‘But was the underwater dungeon opened around this time…?’

That time when I was seriously searching for memories.

Team leader Pyeon Chang-hyeon opened his mouth again.

“Anyway, we need to replenish our personnel in preparation for the underwater dungeon. First, our team will try to contact a good guild…”

“No. “I will do it myself.”

“Are you sure you don’t mind? “You must be busy with work right now.”

“It’s important, isn’t it? “This has to be done directly by the head of the department.”

Team leader Pyeon Chang-hyeon expressed small admiration.

Of course, that was a superficial reason, and my true intentions were a little different.

At least you don’t have to do anything else while scouting, right?

It’s much better to be out and about than to be stuck in the office.

“Then please do me a favor.”

“yes. “Don’t worry.”

Team leader Pyeon Chang-hyeon expressed his gratitude repeatedly and left the office.

I leaned back in my chair and fell into thought again.

That’s why that question didn’t leave my mind a little while ago.

‘It’s an underwater dungeon…’

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t remember the underwater dungeon being open around this time.

Of course, the circumstances of the association and the external aspects are going completely differently from the previous life… but wasn’t the appearance of the dungeon 100% identical to the previous life?

But why did an underwater dungeon suddenly appear that didn’t exist before?

I continued stroking my chin.
