The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 98

098

At the Suncheon branch, the operational team training center and trainees’ dormitories were built as planned.

Veteran hunters from each branch were dispatched in shifts as instructors at the training center.

Of course, Minju Kim was also selected as a senior lecturer.

As expected, the effect appeared as expected.

As it became a place that new recruits had to go through, it became possible to fill the required amount of subjugation through practical training.

Even though they were new, the instructors were so solid that there was no room for problems, and thanks to this, the civic group that had been distrusted for a long time became quiet.

Nevertheless, there were still problems that needed to be fixed… but from there, it would be up to the branch to resolve them on their own.

“So… how is everyone working these days?”

The company’s regular meeting day.

A total of 10 cleaning team leaders, including Moon So-yeon, Han Sang-hyuk, and Han Yu-bin, attended the conference room.

“There is no major problem with the Gangneung branch. “The dungeons are not that difficult to work on, so you can work on them quickly.”

Moon So-yeon answered first.

This was followed by reports from each team leader.

“We don’t have any problems either. Well, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to receive some of the down payment as a by-product.”

“Ah, the Jeonju branch asked if they could dismember the body into smaller pieces. However, with our current equipment, it seems a bit difficult to dismantle it to a size of 30cm or less.”

Hong Yong-pyo, team leader of Team 7, said.

“I will get you a special cutting machine. “Anything else?”

“Nothing else is a problem.”

I nodded.

“All right. Do you have any difficulties or further suggestions?”

In fact, before the regression, I didn’t even pay attention to the employees’ suggestions… but it’s

obvious that if I just endure it alone like before, the problem will only get bigger, so now I need to check in advance.

Above all, if you can’t endure it and leave, there is no loss.

“….”

“….”

But for some reason, everyone is just staring blankly.

“Is there really nothing? It’s okay, so feel free to say it…”

“I…”

At that time, Moon So-yeon carefully raised her hand.

Looking at the hesitation on his face, it seemed like it was a very important matter, so I was also nervous.

“Can you please fill the bathroom with more snacks…?”

“….”

after.

“…All right.”

I clenched my fist and said a small yes! He shouts.

Well… it’s simple.

“Is there anything else besides that?”

“….”

“….”

Silence came again.

I nodded with a slight sigh.

“All right. “Then I’ll assume it’s not there… I’ll end the meeting here.”

As soon as the conversation ended, everyone left the conference room.

I relaxed my neck muscles and looked around the conference room surrounded by glass.

A clean and spacious space that is incomparable to the previous office.

Thanks to the hiring of as many as 10 additional administrative staff, the company has now become quite like a company.

The fact that this change occurred in just a few months was all thanks to the work of the Suncheon branch.

From that day on, strange stories about our company began to circulate on the Internet, and the number of job applicants increased exponentially.

Thanks to this, we were able to create up to 10 new teams from the existing 3 teams.

At the same time, the rumor that a cleaning company had revived the Suncheon branch that was drying up spread quickly among the branches, and the number of people visiting us from all over the country increased.

According to Director Lee A-young, thanks to this, sales this month will increase more than 10 times compared to the first month of establishment.

Literally a turning point.

The name of Karma Corporation was clearly imprinted throughout the country.

And the Baekje guild… well, failed.

All guild members became unemployed.

I tried to transfer to another guild, but my previous experience held me back.

I bought a Baekje guild that had fallen to rock bottom at a bargain price. They had no choice.

From now on, I’ll have to work as a cleaner rather than a hunter… but I’m in no position to choose that kind of thing.

“…When I think about it, I think we could have just dealt with it quietly.”

There’s a feeling that it’s a bit excessive.

“Well, even if it wasn’t for you, it would have happened someday. “It’s all karma.”

Lee Ah-young, who was working next to him, immediately turned away.

Even as she spoke, her eyes were busy on the monitor and her hands were busy on the keyboard.

“I guess there’s a lot to do?”

“You call that a horse? We haven’t been able to do our job properly because we’ve been focusing only on the Suncheon branch, but of course! Ha… Is this a cleaning service dispatch company or a business management company?…”

“But in the end, it didn’t work out as I said.”

“…That makes me even more annoyed.”

Stares at me with glaring eyes.

I hope it gets resolved well, but there are a lot of complaints.

“What is the status of the contract?”

“So far, we have signed a total of 22 contracts. 18 provinces, 1 metropolitan city, and 3 metropolitan areas. “If this trend continues, it may be worth considering converting to a corporation.”

“well. It hasn’t even been a year yet, so it seems too early… Let’s just keep watching the trend for now. “How are the branches reacting?”

“I think I’m satisfied overall. There were no complaints whatsoever. “Well, it’s only natural since they are all veterans.”

“That’s a good thing.”

“More than anything, employee satisfaction is very high. Well… I guess this is also natural.”

“…? Why is that natural?”

Eyebrows rise.

The expression on his face as if he was asking because he didn’t know.

I didn’t know what to say, so I just closed my mouth.

“But I’m asking just in case.”

Then Director Lee Ah-young quickly brought up another story.

“You said you wanted to focus more on overseas. Are you planning to go out right away?”

“Hmm…”

Even though it is on the rise, it is still not enough.

Only when it stabilizes to a certain level can we confirm accurate indicators and proceed with the project.

“It would be nice to have something to drive a wedge into.”

“A wedge?”

“It’s big enough to establish itself as irreplaceable. For example… it prevents the headquarters from falling apart.”

“….”

The expression is not very good.

“…Could you please stop being ominous? “Isn’t it overwhelming enough right now?”

Director Lee Ah-young took a break.

I laughed out loud because it was something I had tried before.

‘…Pungbi Baksan?’

But at that moment, something crossed my mind at the words I said.

I immediately checked the calendar and calculated the date several times.

Ah… Damn….

“…Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

Lee Ah-young asked with a scared expression, but there was no time to answer.

I was so preoccupied with other things that I completely forgot about it.

It’s a big deal, and it’s embarrassing…

‘Fuck…’

The day is just around the corner.

As soon as the memories of that miserable day before returning began to creep into my mind, I took out my cell phone.

“I’m sorry for contacting you suddenly. “Could you please convene all operational teams across the country to Seoul in a month?”

The president of the association reacted in confusion.

「What are you talking

about all of a sudden?」 「I thought something might happen….」

「What happened?」

「….」

I didn’t know where to start and hesitated to answer, so the president of the association spoke first.

“I don’t know what’s going on, but it’s impossible to assemble a national operation team. I’m not saying I won’t do it, but that’s the law.”

Of course I know.

It is legally prohibited for more than 15 operational teams to gather in one place to prepare for an emergency.

But…

“Isn’t it possible to summon everyone in a crisis situation?”

“What kind of crisis is there?”

“….”

Actually, I regressed, but anyway, if I told you that a dangerous dungeon would open around this time…

I wouldn’t believe it, even if it seemed like me.

“You seem to be very tired these days after working hard with business and all. Instead of doing that, take a break for a few days. Resting is also work.”

“…I understand.”

I had no choice but to put down my phone because I couldn’t possibly explain it.

As I took a moment to gather my thoughts, the memory of that time when I had just received an A rank and was proud of myself replayed in my mind.

***

Near Seocho Station in Seoul before returning.

Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Kugugugugung-!!

Kwakwang Bang!!

The center of Seoul was already in chaos.

Monsters were constantly pouring into the city center from the suddenly appeared Regen dungeon.

“Hold the camp!! “If we scatter, we will all die!!”

He shouted at the Hunters of Operation Team 1.

But there was no reason left to listen to me.

“Aaaah!!”

“Keueuuuuu!”

“Cough…!”

Each monster is boss level.

It was natural for my mind to be shaken by a situation I had never experienced before.

‘Fuck…’

I chewed my teeth hard.

Then he turned his head towards team leader Soo-yong Lee.

“manager! This will be annihilated. “We need to take as much time as possible to retreat and then join up with other teams from the rear!”

“….”

But the bastard named Operation Team 1 was already mesmerized.

“manager! manager!!”

“…Let’s retreat later.”

The moment he could barely speak, I shouted.

“retreat! Everyone retreat! “We are trying to keep them from getting closer as much as possible, and even go to COEX!”

“yes yes!”

“Ha Dong-su! You focus on protecting the priest classes! Wonjae Jo provides backup with the wizard classes! “Everyone else, follow me!”

“All right!”

Operation Team 1, known as the elite, retreated without even entering the dungeon.

Even as the youngest person to receive A rank, it was difficult to understand what was going on.

In the meantime, he also served as a leader in the red level subjugation. Although he was young, his dungeon experience was above that of a team leader.

But this is not a dungeon.

Just a disaster.

It’s a strategy, a plan, and a disaster itself that serves no purpose.

I don’t remember much after that.

I really fought with the determination to die, and teammates with the same determination died all around me.

It’s been three days since I couldn’t sleep or eat, and all I did was fend off monsters.

Even so, we still couldn’t even reach the dungeon entrance.

At this rate, it was only a matter of time before the entire city of Seoul collapsed.

Only then did Director Seo Min-cheol realize the severity, and belatedly requested reinforcements from guilds and branches across the country, and little by little, they were able to regain the areas lost to the monsters.

Eventually, when we reached the dungeon entrance again.

The dungeon naturally disappeared.

finished.

But no one could shout out in joy or sigh in relief.

We didn’t win, we just barely survived.

Remains of collapsed buildings.

The floor of Seoul turned red as the shredded corpses of the monsters and the corpses of the hunters mixed together.

“….”

I looked at the bodies of my colleagues expressionlessly.

Among them were juniors whom I followed closely and seniors who helped me a lot.

There was a classmate I gossiped about behind my back, and there was also a friend I had been preparing for the Hunter Exam with since high school.

That time when I stood there silently for hours.

“Um…”

Someone spoke up.

“…What is it?”

“We are a dungeon cleaning team… where should we start cleaning?”

“…Are you also part of the association?”

“yes yes. Yes.”

I looked at him and asked dryly.

“Where were you until you got to this point?”

“yes? Ha, but we are non-combatants…”

He cut off his words with a wave of his hand.

I know. It’s a pointless vent.

I just didn’t have the mind left to think rationally.

I know it’s not because of them.

However, for some reason, I couldn’t help but feel angry.
