Yeouido Administrative Headquarters Association President’s Office.

As soon as I returned home, I went straight there without even unpacking.

“What on earth did you do on a business trip like that?”

As soon as the president of the association saw me, he opened fire with those words.

“I can’t believe the international association branches are joining hands to occupy the dungeon. “This is something I have never heard of in 50 years of my association life.”

“It’s the same. Well, anyway…”

I solved it pretty well. I couldn’t bear to say those words, so I trailed off.

If it had been resolved really well, Huin wouldn’t have been stabbed.

The president of the association asked with a very serious expression.

“Is it possible that the fact that a neighboring association did something like that has something to do with us?”

“It’s not like it’s not there. Well, it’s just my guess… but it seems like an organization related to the International Association I mentioned last time gave the instructions directly.”

“Hmm, I kind of know what you mean. I too have heard of such a ghost story. Well, judging by your reaction, it doesn’t seem like it’s just a ghost story.”

The president of the association looked at me.

There was a lot of curiosity in his eyes, but he didn’t ask anything more.

“How was headquarters?”

“Nothing special happened here.”

“Thank goodness.”

The president of the association groaned.

“It looks like something is bothering you. “Is this a similar situation to the last underwater dungeon?”

“We are becoming bolder.”

“…I heard this is bad news.”

“I think they are trying to warn me. “If we move any further from here, it will continue to be dangerous.”

“You?”

“It would be better if I were alone.”

All you have to do is destroy all those who come.

Anyway, I have personal business to attend to.

But this incident is by no means intended to threaten only me.

“You are trying to threaten those around you.”

“yes.”

Hmm, the president of the association touched his chin with a stern expression.

In any case, there is a high probability that they were the ones who killed me before returning.

Of course, even if they knew nothing and were taken by surprise, in the end, they were the ones who succeeded in killing me, who was an SSS rank.

If those guys decide to target other guys, they will inevitably suffer.

“I went to take the lump off, but the lump got stuck again.”

“…sorry.”

I bowed my head.

“I thought I would slow down a little if I tried the Vietnam branch. I never thought it would come out so directly…”

“Don’t be presumptuous. You only made a suggestion; I made the final decision. “Then whose fault is it?”

“….”

Well… that’s true.

It’s not my fault.

“so? What are you going to do now? Are you planning to respond even more strongly?”

“To do that, I don’t know much about the other person yet. “For now, I think it would be better to stay calm and watch the situation.”

“Yeah… it’s definitely going to be difficult to move any further. “I need to fuzz over the overseas branch business at this point as well.”

“no.”

I shook my head resolutely.

“hmm?”

“There is no need for that. We plan to continue with our overseas business. Additionally, we plan to proceed with other matters as well. “If we stop here, won’t we end up in a tailspin?”

“I heard there was a warning? “Wouldn’t it be dangerous to proceed any further?”

“If it’s official, then yes.”

The association president’s eyebrows twitched.

“Tell me in detail.”

A voice that seems very heavy.

After looking around the office, I cautiously opened my mouth.

“We plan to proceed with matters related to international associations, including overseas branch projects, behind the scenes rather than officially as they are now. “It would be better that way to avoid the eyes of the international association.”

“So what you’re saying is, let’s move outside of the association, not inside?”

“yes.”

“Way?”

I took a moment to catch my breath.

“I would like to create an affiliated organization that can work unofficially behind the association.”

“Hmm, are you saying we should follow the International Association?”

“Are you just going to follow along?”

He leaned forward and spoke softly.

“I’m even thinking about eating it.”

“….”

The president of the association did not show any particular reaction, but to me, it seemed like he was trying to act calm.

Because the corners of his mouth were trembling slightly.

“Where on earth did this idiot come from…”

“Yes?”

“It’s nothing.”

Yes, it’s an affiliated organization― The president of the association muttered that and took a long breath.

“Anyway, didn’t you say you were going to quit? “Why did you change your mind?”

“There were some variables in the plan. “At this rate, there is no point in going out.”

I shrugged my shoulders and continued.

“And technically, this is also going out. It is an unofficial affiliated organization, but it means that it will ultimately become independent from the association. As you know, as long as I am at an official event, the entire association will be targeted.”

“No matter how informally we do it, it will eventually get noticed, right?”

“On the surface, it should be packaged as a different business. “I have something in mind.”

“It’s a disguise business.”

I nodded.

“Of course, I will leave the decision to the president of the association. It’s hard to say this, but once you start this project, there’s no going back. “From now on, they will completely turn against the International Association.”

He continued speaking quite seriously.

“At some point, we will have to endure armed conflict.”

“Are you going to scare me?”

“I’m telling you the truth.”

The association president sighed.

“Anyway, talking about this when we’re alone means you don’t want other people to know, right?”

“yes. “I hope you will keep this a secret from Director Lee Du-sik as well.”

“You can believe that. “A mouth is heavy.”

He immediately threw his head back.

“I thought all I had to do was subdue it, but then all sorts of things happen…”

He muttered like that and closed his eyes.

And after thinking about it for a while.

“Yes, Sibeol. Why not give it a try?”

Permission was granted.

“Of course, I have no intention of proceeding immediately. There are many things to prepare for. Above all, we need to find out who is moving and for what purpose.”

“okay. “Let me know when you’re ready.”

He looked at me intently.

“Tsk, you’ll end up leaving. I tried to lure him in somehow and make him stick around. “If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have given permission.”

…What is he saying now.

“We are all in the same boat anyway. “Please consider being away for a while.”

I stood up and bowed my head politely.

“Anyway, thank you so much.”

“Don’t say that. Rather, I should be the one giving thanks. “We are very fortunate to have someone like you in our association.”

“….”

I was a little embarrassed because it was something I had never heard before even in my past life as the world’s number one hunter.

At that time, I was about to leave the office in a hurry, feeling embarrassed.

“So this is a personal question.”

The president of the association opened his mouth again.

“You… what on earth do you want to do?”

“yes?”

“I even declined the offer to be the president of the association. Didn’t I force him to sit down even though he refused to take the position of head of the division? But it doesn’t seem like I’m greedy for money.”

He continued speaking, resting his chin.

“I started as a janitor and ended up here, but I’ve never seen you being greedy. “What is your goal?”

“What…”

That’s the goal.

Isn’t it natural?

“We are going high.”

“how much?”

He smiled meaningfully.

“As much as possible.”

After saying those words, I left the association president’s office.

***

‘Ugh…’

I continued to sigh deeply.

It’s not that I haven’t, but I’ve been suffering from headaches ever since I returned home.

And the beginning.

[A variable has occurred in your goal achievement status.]

It was from the voice heard at the airport.

[The International Hunter Association’s hostility toward you has exceeded the threshold.]

[Your current goal achievement status will be updated according to the relevant variable.]

[….]

[Your current goal achievement status has been updated.]

[Hidden skill: Karma]

[Skill unlock condition: Achieve the Secretary General of the International Hunter Association]

[Current position: Seoul Operation Head of the Korea Extraordinary Ability Dimension Management Association]

[Current skill unlock rate: 99.8%]

[Current class: Swordsman Priest Wizard]

[ Current unofficial ranking: SS]

[Current unofficial ranking: 1st in Korea, 37th in the world]

[Current relationship with the International Hunter Association: Very poor]

[Probability of achieving the goal if proceeding as planned as of the current time]

[1.068%]

So far It was a voice I had never heard before, but it was important anyway.

‘What the fuck….’

His chances of becoming Secretary General were shrinking.

I almost screamed at the airport at the hopeless odds.

Well… if you look at it calmly, it’s worth it.

My original plan was to unlock all the skills, become a hunter again, and enter the International Association.

However, now that they have become the target of the international association, they are unable to even register as hunters, let alone enter the international association.

So, it is not unreasonable to have such a probability.

In any case, it is difficult to expect to overcome the 1% chance of becoming Secretary General at this rate.

To achieve the goal, changes to the plan were necessary.

Well… there’s only one thing that can be done when it comes to editing.

‘Why not make a new one?’

Of course, it is impossible to proceed with this openly since it has already become a target of the international association.

That’s why I proposed an unofficial affiliated organization to the president of the association.

In order to expand metallurgy influence by disguising it as a private business and avoiding the eyes of international associations.

Secretary General of the Second International Association.

What a plausible method this is.

Of course, I’m still not sure if this damn karma will admit it…

It’s all or nothing.

I have no choice but to try something.

“Okay… I ended up leaving.”

The cleaning team’s office where I visited after a long time.

Manager Park, who was sitting across from us, opened his mouth heavily.

“Have you thought about what to do when you go out? Is there someone I know who processes monster byproducts as a subcontractor for the association? Junwoo, if it’s okay with you, I’ll ask for a seat there.”

“Haha….”

By-product processing facility?

I don’t want to die.

“Thank you for the offer, but… I already have something in mind.”

“Oh already? “Which one is it?”

“What I learned is stealing, so I’m thinking of starting a business where I dispatch a cleaning team.”

“Dispatching a cleaning team…?”

Even the head of the cleaning department seemed skeptical.

“What I found out during my recent business trip to Vietnam was that independent associations in more countries than I expected lack cleaning teams.”

“Isn’t that the same in our country? “I don’t know about the Seoul headquarters or larger branches, but even if you go down to the countryside a little bit, there’s still a huge shortage of people.”

“So, that’s right. “Anyway, since there is so much demand, wouldn’t it be a good thing if we send cleaners to those places?”

“… Does it sound okay from what I heard?”

He nodded, as if he had suddenly changed his mind.

Actually, I thought a lot about running a hunter academy, but…

I was trying to choose something that could be started with as little capital as possible, so the only option I had was sending out a cleaner.

If it goes well, we may even try overseas. In fact, it might be more beneficial financially.

‘Well, that’s the official reason…’

The unofficial reason is that you just need a reason to travel to various countries anyway.

There is no item better than this to carry out mergers and acquisitions of overseas branches in the name of business.

‘Hmm…’

It was ironic.

In my past life, I suggested reducing staff without even knowing what the cleaning team did, but now I am completely opposed to it and am trying to start a project to dispatch the cleaning team.

It’s something to live for a long time.

No, is it something I have to die for?

“Hey, I remember when you first came here. Honestly, at the time, I thought he would leave after a day or two… but I never thought he would be so selfish about our work.”

Manager Park chuckled.

“You don’t know how lucky I am to have you on the cleaning team. I was really grateful. “You’ve had a hard time.”

“…the manager worked hard too.”

I wonder why everyone is reacting so strongly.

Feeling needlessly embarrassed.

I stood up with a short greeting.

“Oh and.”

At the same time, he again said those words to Manager Park quite late,

“I’m sorry about what happened back then.”

“Uh hmm?What what?”

A puzzled look.

I smiled quietly.

“There is such a thing.”
