The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 89

The atmosphere at headquarters was quite chaotic as the rumor that I was resigning had already spread.

Kim Min-ju, Lee A-young, and Han Yu-bin, who I knew about in advance, were less so, but the others made quite a fuss.

Among them were guild leader Cha Seok-hyun and reporter Koo Sang-chan.

I didn’t really understand why they were making such a fuss when they heard that a former cleaner who hadn’t worked with me for several months was leaving…

Anyway, I had to finish my work even though I was quite busy answering phone calls here and there.

Thanks to you, I’ve been really busy these past few days.

Anyway, time passed steadily and the last day of work arrived.

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“You did a really good job.”

Director Lee Ah-young and Team Leader Pyeon bowed their heads.

“I knew, but now I’m finally realizing that you’re quitting.”

“But why don’t we have a company dinner? “He’s a miser to the end.”

Not only them, but team leaders Kim Min-ju and Han Yu-bin also visited my office.

Kim Min-ju and Team Leader Pyeon presented a bouquet of flowers, and Han Yu-bin presented a framed $2 bill.

In America, it’s a symbol of good luck or something.

And Director Lee Ah-young… was empty-handed.

“Is there anything there?”

“Why are you forcing me, a grown man, to give you a gift?”

He crosses his arms and snaps.

This is a woman who makes you feel the urge to punch her until the very end.

“Are you really upset because I’m leaving?”

“You are overly self-conscious. What is there to be sad about? “Everyone goes their own way.”

He turns his head with an expression that asks, “What’s the big deal?”

It was a completely different reaction from the other day, when he openly expressed regret.

It wasn’t Hong Gil-dong, and I had no way of knowing why I was feeling this way.

‘Just looking at cancer doesn’t make me crazy.’

I’m glad I got out before I got involved further.

“Anyway, the good days are gone now. “Would it be possible to run properly without the head of the department?”

“There’s nothing wrong with flattering me on my way out. “Didn’t you do well even when I wasn’t around?”

“When that bastard Seo Min-cheol was around? “You don’t really think it worked out well, do you?”

Team leader Pyeon immediately made a strange expression and imitated Seo Min-cheol, and at the same time, laughter broke out here and there.

Thanks to this, the atmosphere became lighter.

“You said you were preparing… a project to dispatch a cleaning team?”

“yes. Well, I’m still just thinking about it and nothing has been done.”

“How about offering to scout the cleaning team?”

“There needs to be a foundation for that too. “We have to start from scratch, so who will want to join us?”

“Well~. “I think there will definitely be at least one person.”

Team leader Pyeon’s gaze turned to Lee Ah-young.

She hurriedly averted her gaze as if something was bothering her.

It’s like a cat reacting after making a mistake.

“Anyway, the idea is good. “If I had known in advance, I would have done it first.”

“What would you like to do as a partner? “I will make a space for you.”

“Is that true? “Do you have to keep your promise?”

“It’s a joke. “How can we attract someone who is the head of the control team?”

Team leader Pyeon showed an expression of blatant displeasure.

Well… if I had known that it was actually a disguised project to destroy the International Association, there would be no way I would have reacted like that.

“If you need anything, please contact me anytime. “I really want to help in any way I can.”

“I will.”

Afterwards, small talk continued about what had happened.

After about an hour, everyone returned to their seats and I was left alone in the office to kill some time.

Then, before I knew it, it was almost time to leave work.

I packed my bag and left the office.

As I went down the stairs, I didn’t feel anything special.

Even if I did quit, it wasn’t really my job in the end.

Since I only stopped by briefly to go back to the original, there was nothing to regret.

The people I met here are people who have nothing to do with me, and more than anything, if I leave, it will all be over.

…I thought so.

Until I met them in the headquarters lobby.

“Thank you for your effort.”

“You can go out and stay healthy.”

“Thanks to the manager, I’ve really enjoyed working these past few months. thanked.”

“It’s okay if you show your face at least once in a while. ha ha ha!”

Quite a few team members, including the cleaning team, gathered to see me off.

Among them, Moon So-yeon and Han Sang-hyuk were also seen.

“…You don’t do any work. “If I have time to do this, I will go and work on at least one more dungeon.”

“Haha! Anyway, the general manager is a workaholic!”

“There is no romance, there is no romance!”

I said this sincerely, but the reaction is unusual.

Even if you worry about me, what can I say?

“…Can I contact you often?”

“Do whatever you feel comfortable with.”

“…Hi-Hi.”

When I answered, Moon So-yeon smiled brightly.

“Can’t you pretend not to know me outside?”

This time, Han Sang-hyuk came after her.

“Look at what you’re doing.”

“what the!”

Han Sang-hyuk let out a chuckle.

So I walked out of the headquarters building, leaving the rest behind to see them off.

‘Well, it didn’t really matter.’

With that, I said my formal farewell to the association where I had spent half my life, in a completely different way than in my previous life.

「(1 report) Kim Jun-woo, the head of the Operations Division of the Supernatural Management Association, resigns.」

「Why on earth did he resign after two months of being appointed as the head of the division?」

「Was it too heavy a burden… Netizens react to the sudden resignation of the Operations Division Director Kim? ‘Shock’”

「President of the Association Park In-beom, ‘I respect his decision’ Resignation that not even the board of directors knew about」

「Ares Guild CEO Seok-hyeon Cha, ‘a baffling decision’ ‘Nevertheless, I support you’”

「From the youngest member of the cleaning team to the head of the operation headquarters. Why was Operation Director Kim’s super-fast promotion possible? 「

‘Please come to our guild’ An untimely ‘scout war’ took place in guilds across the country to recruit Operation Director Kim.」

「Youngest person, most achievements, shortest period of time. ‘What’s next for former Operations Chief Kim? “

I’m sure you’ll be disappointed.”

Association President’s Office, Yeouido Administrative Headquarters.

Director Lee Du-sik, who was checking the article, spoke first.

“It’s a shame. “It’s not like we don’t have anything to do to worry about the person who left.”

He said that, but his drooping voice seemed like he was about to die of regret.

Director Lee Doo-sik said while trying hard to suppress laughter.

“Would you like to try it? So first of all, what should the next head of headquarters do? “Is there anyone you have considered as your successor?”

“Well, that’s fine. “That’s a concern, though.”

“Well, no matter who sits there, it won’t be as good as him.”

“I don’t expect anything like that.”

The president of the association waved his hand.

Director Lee Du-sik stroked his chin for a moment and then asked vaguely.

“What about Team Leader Kim Min-ju?”

“You wouldn’t have asked?”

“Is this a refusal?”

“It was cut with a single knife. “I’m really the same as everyone else.”

“It can’t be helped. “Well, how many people would follow in after seeing what he did?”

“So, punishment. “I still can’t believe it.”

The president of the association laughed.

Isn’t the youngest, fresh-faced cleaning lady going crazy to raise the status of the cleaning team that even the association’s employees were ignoring?

Wouldn’t it blow away Lee Soo-yong and Seo Min-cheol, who were powerful figures in the association?…

It would take a long time to list them one by one.

“Haa….”

The president of the association let out a long breath.

“It will be quiet.”

“So, that’s right. The overseas branch issue was also practically fuzzed. Anyway, you International Association bastards….”

“Don’t be like that. “You don’t avoid poop because you’re scared, you avoid it because it’s dirty.”

Of course, I have no intention of avoiding it.

The president of the association muttered this to himself.

Of course, Director Lee Du-sik did not know the details.

The reason Kim Jun-woo left the association was so that he could take on the risk on his own without involving them anymore.

From the looks of it, he seemed to think that it was all his fault that he was the target of the International Association and that even the people around him were in danger.

That’s probably why you want to take responsibility yourself.

If you look at it calmly, it wasn’t wrong.

But wasn’t everything he did for us in the end?

There was no way I could feel comfortable as the president of the association trying to shoulder that responsibility alone.

“I hope it goes well.”

I muttered to myself.

However, Director Lee Doo-sik answered, perhaps because his voice was a little loud.

“I sent you a gift, so it’ll be okay.”

“What gift?”

“It’s a secret.”

“It’s really nothing special.”

“Didn’t the president of the association also share secrets with the two of you, excluding me?”

Instead of answering, I let out a laugh.

“You should like the gift.”

Director Lee Du-sik muttered.

***

Small one-room.

The once unfamiliar space has now become very familiar.

A leisurely time for the first time in a while.

I was lying quietly in bed, thinking about future events in my head.

Ding dong―.

At that moment, the doorbell rang out of nowhere.

No one is coming.

When I went out to find someone, there was someone I didn’t expect.

“Oh, you were at home?”

“…?”

It was Director Lee A-young.

what…?

Why is this person here?

As I was stunned for a moment by the sudden appearance, Director Lee Ah-young waved her palm in front of my eyes.

“Why are you looking like that? “Have I come to a place I can’t come to?”

“…What is it? “Has something happened at headquarters?”

“No, it’s nothing like that.”

He hesitated for a moment before continuing.

“I quit my job.”

“…what?”

“Oh, technically it was cut.”

He spits out shocking words.

“Well, you got fired. Who cuts you?”

“Who would it be?”

“…You sure don’t mean to say it’s Director Lee Doo-sik, right?”

“Not really. “When I said I wanted to leave, they fired me right away?”

I tapped my forehead.

No matter how much you want to leave, you blow the head of the support team in one fell swoop?

How on earth did the father and daughter end up together?

No, rather than that… If you quit the company, then why did you come here?

“No way, since I got fired, you’re asking me to take responsibility…”

“Hah, what are you talking about? “Are you overly self-conscious?”

“Then why did you come to my house?”

When I asked, she cleared her throat loudly.

“Are… Are your business preparations going well?”

“so so. “Why is that?”

“Can you join me too?”

“…?”

What the fuck are you saying?

“They said they would take responsibility if I became unemployed.”

“When will I… No, more than that, you said you didn’t want me to take responsibility.”

“….”

I turn my eyes and avoid eye contact.

Are you kidding me or something?

“Okay, let’s go back. I don’t think it will help much…”

“Now wait a minute! You’re not really trying to refuse, are you? “There must be a big difference between having me and not having me, right?”

“I really am…”

It’s not me who’s overly self-conscious, it’s you.

“Oh right! “I also brought you a gift!”

“gift…?”

“You were upset that I didn’t give it to you then, right? “I’ll give it to you right now, so feel free.”

He rummaged through his bag, took out a document envelope, and handed it to me.

It was a bundle of documents that looked quite thick at first glance.

“…What is this?”

“This is the status of the domestic branch cleaning team. Number of people per team, budget, workload, working hours, etc. how is it? “This sounds like essential information for your business.”

“….”

I paused for a moment… but domestic information isn’t that great.

Above all, it’s not like we’re going all-in on dispatching a cleaning team.

Well, I don’t know if it’s information about overseas associations.

“It’s not very appetizing…”

“And this too.”

As soon as I could say anything, she took out another document.

“This is information about independent associations from overseas countries. “This is the personnel and operational status of each team. How about this?”

“….”

“Hehe, this seems a bit appetizing.”

“…Can I just bring something like this before that?”

“Of course not.”

They say it doesn’t make sense, but I don’t know why their expressions are so confident.

“So can I come in now?”

Director Lee Ah-young pointed to the house and said.

It’s time to sigh.

I ended up opening the door.
