The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 66
066
066
A small bar located near Itaewon.
[This is urgent news.]
The analog TV in the corner cut off the baseball broadcast and broke the news.
[The large-scale interception incident that took place simultaneously throughout Seoul starting at 6 PM today finally came to an end around 10:30 PM.] It was something that shocked even
Yang Min-ho, who was not particularly interested.
Yang Minho looked at the TV with a stern expression while holding a drink.
[The Earl Gray Guild, which was conducting interception, accidentally entered an orange-level dungeon and lost contact, but the newly appointed Director of Operations Kim Jun-woo of the Extraordinary Dimension Association and Operation Team 1 immediately launched a rescue operation and safely rescued all guild members. ]
Most of the customers at the bar responded that they were glad.
Of course, the news cannot be good news for Yang Min-ho.
[In addition, Director Kim Jun-woo took responsibility for the interception that occurred today as a cooperative relationship between the guild and the association, and at the same time signed cooperative agreements with all guilds in Seoul under reasonable conditions. This fact spread rapidly among citizens, and once again, voices supporting Director Kim Jun-woo…]
Yang Min-ho eventually turned his head away from the TV.
“Haha…”
I burst out laughing without realizing it.
Partnership with an association?
Reasonable conditions?
‘Is that really crazy…?’
Yang Minho continued to laugh as if it was absurd.
Then the phone rang.
Sure enough, it was Rep. Jeong Hoon.
“…yes.”
“What happened?! “Why did the association sign a partnership contract with the guild?!”
“I also didn’t expect this.”
“What an unexpected thing! What if you say something like that! There are only a few months left until the election, but the association’s approval rating seems to be rising. “How are you going to take responsibility for this?”
“Councilor.”
Yang Minho’s voice sank.
“Who are you shouting at now?”
「….」
Rep. Jeong Hoon could not bear to continue speaking.
“Anyway, I am sorry about this incident. “You are a member of the National Assembly, but I also have a blemish on my career.”
“Now wait a minute! “You can’t believe you’re stopping here…!”
“I’m sure you’ve seen the news just now, Congressman. That guy is even more of a jerk than I thought. “If we go any further, we will both end up in danger, so it would be better for each of us to let go at this point.”
Pop-.
Yang Minho unilaterally hung up the phone and poured the remaining alcohol into his mouth.
I never thought I would think of forming a guild in that situation.
Not only did he carry out a rescue operation on behalf of the guild, he also signed a cooperation contract that the guild had been wanting for several years.
It would be safe to say that the guild’s public opinion has already shifted to the association.
In that case, it is only a matter of time before that crazy person finds out that he instigated the interception.
Of course, as the head of the Korean Association, you can’t touch yourself… but if you make more noise for no reason, problems may arise in ‘that’ work as well.
‘I guess I’ll have to rest for a while.’
It was that moment when I urgently tried to stand up.
“Where?”
A man approached with a low, murderous tone of voice.
“Sit down first. “Because I have something to tell you.”
“….”
The moment he faced the man, Yang Minho’s eyes became sharp.
The main character of the news just now was Director Kim Jun-woo.
‘How does this bastard know this place…!’
Of course Yang Minho knows him.
But there was no way he could know himself independently of what he knew.
At that time, I stood still and glared at the man because I couldn’t understand it.
“Sit down, kid. “Before I fold my legs.”
The man’s eyes sparkled.
It was completely different from the listless appearance I saw on TV.
A sincere desire to devour the opponent.
It was a momentum that made even the current No. 1 hunter in the country hesitate.
***
“….”
Yang Minho still didn’t move.
I felt like there would be no end to just waiting for an answer, so I sat down next to Yang Minho and opened my mouth first.
“Today was a bit eventful, wasn’t it?”
“…Do you know me?”
Are you saying you’re going to stop acting like a fool now?
This is absurd.
“Whether I know or not is none of your business.”
He leaned back against the backrest and continued speaking.
“Honestly, I don’t care what kind of request you received or what kind of nonsense you did… You should have at least kept the line. “A bastard named Hunter playing with people’s lives?”
“…Ha ha ha ha ha.”
The moment I heard that laughter in my ears.
A voice played in my head.
[Acquired passive: Mysteriousness]
[Passive activated]
“Hey, is this funny?”
“….”
I don’t know how crazy he is.
I knew he was a bastard who would do anything for a request, but I never thought it would be like this.
“…It seems like you already know everything, so I can’t say anything more.”
Yang Minho obediently acknowledged and continued speaking.
Now that everything has been revealed, is there anything more to say?
It’s amazing.
“But I don’t understand. Did I kill someone? I guess I gave you the wrong dungeon grade…”
“Stop talking nonsense. “Are you afraid I won’t know that you gave me the wrong information on purpose?”
“You’re more perceptive than I thought.”
Yang Minho’s smile deepened.
There was also wariness mixed in there. The expression on his face became similar to the one he used to look at me in my past life.
“Anyway, I’m tired today and I don’t want to get into trouble again when everything is over, so I’ll just quietly let this one go. Instead…”
He pointed his index finger at Yang Minho’s chest.
“Stay out of my sight from now on. “If you interfere with my work one more time, I won’t let you go.”
“…I have no reason to listen to you. “You are the head of operations for the association, but not for me, right?”
“So you will ignore my friendly warning?”
“then?”
“Would you like to follow me to the dungeon for a moment? “Kill me.”
“Haha, the former cleaner is pretentious….”
Yang Min-ho let out a chuckle.
“You sure you don’t know who I am?”
“know.”
“Then what kind of confidence do you have?”
Yang Minho took a step towards me.
I felt a different energy from before in his eyes.
‘I am so proud of being number one in the country.’
The kid who couldn’t even make eye contact.
“You seem to be saying that I can’t use my power outside of the dungeon, but I’m a freelancer. “I don’t really care if I get suspended.”
“Hey, I think you’re mistaken…”
I lowered my head because I felt like I was going to burst out laughing.
Yang Min-ho is currently officially ranked No. 1 in Korea.
A wizard class hunter.
Even before his regression, he made quite a name for himself, ranking second in the country right after me.
at the same time.
“Do you think it’s not me?”
Until the day you die, you’re a little brat who can’t even touch my toes.
“….”
“….”
I just glared in silence for a moment.
But that didn’t last long either.
“Shouldn’t you report it to the police…?”
“That person is that person. Director Kim Jun-woo!”
“Why is Director Kim Jun-woo here?”
“First, report it to the association. “Because it looks like there’s going to be a fight.”
The surroundings suddenly became noisy.
Yang Minho looked at his surroundings.
As soon as he saw one of the customers calling somewhere, he turned his back.
“Be careful going forward. “If you cross the line again…”
He gave a final warning to Yang Minho’s back as he was trying to hurriedly leave the store.
“You’ll really die by then.”
***
Association Seoul Headquarters.
Office of the Chief of Operations.
“I was truly impressed!”
As soon as I answered the phone, the loud voice of guild leader Cha Seok-hyeon pierced through the receiver and into my ears.
“Don’t fly too much. “I’m embarrassed.”
“ha ha ha! Still, I can’t help it. “Was that normal?”
These were words I had already heard from various places since morning.
What on earth are you talking about like that?
“I honestly can’t believe that an orange-level rescue operation was accomplished with just one operation team. No matter how skilled the hunters are, from the Orange level or higher, success in subjugation depends on the command… It’s really hard to believe that he was a janitor.” “Haha….” He didn’t say anything else and just smiled
sheepishly
.
Even if I said that that one operation team was of no practical help, it would be pointless to spread the story, so I kept quiet.
“Anyway, that’s not the main point…”
Cha Seok-hyun continued carefully, changing the topic.
“Are you sure our guild would sign a cooperation contract as well? It’s not that we didn’t, but we weren’t there at the scene so we didn’t receive the contract… Ha ha ha!” He smiled as if he was embarrassed even after saying this
.
He answered with a grin.
“I’ll send you one.”
“Ah, the Aphrodite Guild…”
“Can I send it to the same address?”
An excited voice was heard over the phone.
It seemed like he was saying something to the employees.
My reaction was 180 degrees different from when I first met him.
“Then I will be waiting for you, Director!”
“Yes. Please take care of me in the future.”
When I ended the call, Team Leader Pyeon was waiting in the office.
I wondered when on earth he came in.
“I’m sorry to keep you waiting. “What’s going on?”
“The management department calculated the specific amount of damage caused by last week’s interception. Would you like to take a look?”
“It’s done. Now what? “Anything else?”
“Everything else… it’s all good in the end.”
Team leader Pyun waved the documents and smiled.
“The guild that signed this contract has great motivation. Compared to last week, the amount of subjugation has increased by 40%. Anyway, the current limit for the operations team is 100 per month, so being able to conquer 40 additional dungeons without spending any money is definitely beneficial. “It’s like receiving 5% of the profits from the subjugation for free.”
“okay.”
“We started with losses, but at this rate, I think we will be able to make up for the damage quickly.”
Team leader Pyeon closed the folder.
“That’s amazing. “I never thought you would think this far… I feel embarrassed for thinking that I was just throwing this out because I didn’t feel like making a big deal out of it.”
“…There’s nothing to be embarrassed about.”
Because that’s actually true.
“Plus, the popularity of the association has risen sharply… The director has also solidified his position through this incident. They say he is a true leader who will never be seen again in this era. Well, I agree with that. ha ha ha!”
“Star….”
There are three weeks left until I leave the company, so I wonder what use it is to solidify my position now.
By the way, seeing as he says it like that, it seems like Team Leader Pyeon doesn’t know that I’m leaving the company soon.
“Well, anyway, I’m relieved to hear that everything is fine. Now, all hunters in Seoul except freelancers are part of the association, so there will be no shortage of people in the future, right?”
“sure. There won’t be much of a problem in terms of subjugation.”
That’s enough.
All originally intended goals were achieved.
“Thank goodness. “Ah, how is the expansion of the research facility going?”
“It’s still under construction, but some equipment has already arrived. what… Director Lee Ah-young asked how long he would wait until it was completed and said he had already started studying the timeline.”
As for personality…
well, it’s just like him.
I leaned my back against the backrest.
Anyway, one night’s incident was somehow resolved.
I didn’t want it to reach the ears of my superiors, but… I couldn’t do that when it was so openly on the news.
Thanks to this, I heard complaints from Director Lee Doo-sik in the morning, but fortunately, there was nothing special to say from the president of the association.
Yang Min-ho hasn’t heard anything since that day, so this is the end.
Even if I take a little break for a while until I leave the company…
“Director Bo! Team leader Pyeon! “It’s an emergency!”
“…Damn it.”
As if there was no time for happiness, Assistant Manager Hwang Dong-hwi appeared, violently opening the office door.
“What on earth is it again?…”
“It’s the supernatural faction that was captured near Incheon Port the other day! “Our predictions were correct.”
The faces of the team leader and I stiffened at the same time.
“An underwater dungeon has appeared.”
Team leader Hwang Dong-hwi spoke in a very nervous voice.
I asked calmly.
“What about the grade? What is your grade?”
“This is the red level.
I’m going crazy.
“Please gather the entire operation team. Immediately.”
I immediately took my coat and got up.
