Entry into North Korea went very smoothly.
Of course, there were incidents such as people who did not understand the subject such as the Colonel Guild appearing in the middle, or Pan-ho Jang secretly inducing a conflict between Jeong-in group and Heuk-ho, but for me now, such an obstruction was nothing.
Those who disturbed me threw away their harpoons, and I used Jang Pan-ho’s conflict-inducing power in reverse to embarrass Jang Pan-ho in the middle and passed it on lightly.
The Black Tigers, who advanced to North Korea, increased their control by mass-producing people of the Black Tigers in North Korea, and the Jeongin group also increased its dominance in the dungeon market by making fun of North Korean hunters and ordinary people who are not immune to capitalism.
It has been a year since North Korea was occupied helplessly by the Black Tiger and Jeongin groups.
“Good.”
By actively introducing know-how from South Korea, it completely engulfed the North Korean dungeon industry.
The dungeon industry, which is affected by the quality and quantity of hunters rather than the country’s economic power, has virtually fallen into my hands, so I am the person who has benefited the most from active trade with North Korea.
Unlike South Korea, North Korea, where everything was managed by the state, suddenly opened up to the private market, and when Pan-ho Jang secretly pushed me, I almost ate it for free.
After all, if someone makes money, there will be laggards.
As I cleared up North Korea in an instant, latecomers from South Korea and North Korea entered the market hastily, but they had to be content with just picking up the crumbs I spilled and eating them because they had already dominated the market and focused on strengthening their market dominance as usual. .
I said with a smirk.
“Hunters are just workers.”
Hunters think that they live autonomously and independently, but the equipment they are holding is made by Sewoon Precision, a subsidiary, and the outpost they use is also mine, and the black market they visit to make money is mine.
In other words, they are no different than miners or workers who dig up goods in the dungeon for me.
I said checking the time.
“By the way, today’s work is all over. Shall we go get a drink after a while?”
After thinking for a while, I picked up my cell phone and called the secretary.
“Wait for the car.”
* * *
Buildings lined up along the main road in downtown Dangjin by car.
I muttered as I looked at those buildings.
“At the time, I didn’t have a single one of mine.”
Although it’s not the last dungeon city I’ve seen with skyscrapers in my previous life, the main road is still filled with buildings over 7 stories tall.
And many of the residents in those buildings.
In my previous life, I was only one of them, but now I am different.
“Now it’s all mine.”
taken from noblemt l
My city I made and built by myself.
Here I am the king and the law.
While enjoying the scenery of the buildings, the car arrived at a small bar.
At that time, a man ran out of the store, seeing my car, and shouted.
“President!!”
That person was President Park.
I got out of the car and said.
“It’s been a month. I am very busy these days.”
“It seems to be about that. haha.”
President Park, whose face was half-destroyed by the protesters, was empty and full of vitality.
“Are there any seats?”
“The president’s seat is always empty. haha.”
As I entered the store under President Park’s guidance, the store’s customers lit up their eyes and chattered.
“Oh oh!! Chairman Jung!”
“I heard that you are a regular here, right?”
“Shall we go and say hello?”
After I handed over the store to President Park, I developed a hobby of visiting President Park’s store in my spare time and having a drink.
Thanks to this, the shop is always crowded with the adjective that it is a regular place for the Chairman of the Jung-in group.
So, it is annoying that there are people who come to meet me with determination sometimes, but the reason I couldn’t give up visiting this store was because of the memories.
I said as I sat down at the table that President Park gave me as my private seat.
“It doesn’t matter if you just accept guests here.”
President Park, who always leaves a seat for me.
“It can’t be. Considering the grace I received from the president, this is nothing. This is all I can do for you.”
President Park shouted loudly.
“honey! President is here!!”
Then, President Park’s wife came out of the kitchen and greeted me and said,
“The President is here!”
“How are you?”
Park’s wife said with a bright smile.
“sure. Have a good time.”
In a previous life, we had only met each other because we had no contact points, but now that we see, President Park’s wife, who has a sad and gentle personality as much as President Park.
“Can I give you what you always ate?”
“please.”
So President Park and his wife went into the kitchen, and I slowly looked around the store.
‘not bad.’
Those humiliating and quivering memories from my previous life soften a bit when I come here.
This is the reason I often visit this store.
Of course, the beginning was to take care of President Park a little bit.
Then a man got up from his seat and tried to approach me, but the bodyguard stopped him and said:
“This is the president’s personal time. Please understand.”
Hearing the bodyguard’s words, the man sat down again with a sullen expression on his face and said.
“Oh, yes.”
It happens often.
It would be interesting
Even if you are like me, it would have been amazing if there was a chaebol who knew the face of the store I visited.
But there is no reason why I have to accept each one.
how long has it been
“Here it is!”
President Park put the finished dish on the table.
I said while tasting the finished dish.
“It’s delicious.”
“is that so? haha.”
In fact, since I made a lot of money, I’ve always eaten a luxurious meal, so it’s not an exceptional taste, but should I say that thanks to a good relationship in the past, my memories are corrected?
Drinks and snacks here are somehow pleasant.
‘This is a break.’
That’s when I was enjoying my own little hobbies.
A man wearing a mask enters the store, looks around, and approaches me directly.
The bodyguard, who saw it, stopped in front like the man before and said,
“The president’s personal… .”
Then the man looked at me and said.
“Chairman, I am.”
“Well?”
At the sound of a familiar voice, I turned my head to look at the man.
“… uh?”
A familiar face, hidden by a mask.
It was Kim Woong, the guild leader of the Hanmu Guild.
I said with a surprised look.
“Guild leader Kim?”
“you’re right. That’s me. I have something important to tell you alone.”
“uh… .”
I think they approached it with a purpose, but it’s just the two of us… .
I thought for a while and said.
“I have a contract with Jaejin, so why not listen together?”
taken from noblemt l
Maybe Kim Woong is a little dangerous.
Although he has given up his national post and lives quietly, Kim Woong is still one of the best hunters in Korea.
After all, if Kim Woong realized what I had done and came to take revenge, I am uneasy with just one off-duty member of the Jung-in guild.
“… … .”
Kim Woong, who was silent for a moment, said.
“Can you believe it?”
“It seems important.”
“It is important. It’s also very.”
“Jaejin can be trusted. Because I am one of those people I can trust with my life.”
Then Kim Woong, who was silent, nodded and said.
“All right.”
“Then wait a minute.”
I said, pointing to the food.
“I’ll just eat this and leave right away.”
Kim Woong nodded at my words and went outside.
I saw the scene and sent a text message to Jae-Jin Lee on my cell phone and muttered quietly.
“what?”
Woong Kim, who knows my number, dares to come all the way here and propose a secret and important conversation… .
I said with a firm expression.
“I feel something strong.”
* * *
When I got home with Kim Woong in the car, I moved to the conference room attached to the mansion with Jae Jin.
“You can speak here.”
Kim Woong, who was silent for a moment at my words, said.
“I was very shocked by the experience of the national job.”
Kim Woong mentions the truth warfare about the terror committed by Kim Kang-gyun and the Black Tiger.
“People in power have the right mindset to be at peace. But if you can’t tell which is true and which is false, you can’t make the right judgment in the first place.”
I said to appease Kim Woong.
“I understand. But there was no way back then.”
“I know. So I just gave up. But it was painful.”
Then, Kim Woong looked down at the floor with a blank expression and said:
“Was the work I had been doing that I thought was right really right? Can I be 100% sure that I did nothing wrong? It was not my conclusion.”
What the hell are you trying to say with such a long introduction?
“That’s right.”
While I was joking around in moderation, Kim Woong suddenly looked at me and said,
“So I decided. Let me dig out the truth with my own hands.”
… what?
“For several years after that, I followed the Black Tiger whenever I had time. no one secretly.”
this crazy
“We targeted a single black market trader and followed them over and over. Even if necessary, I infiltrated and gathered evidence. Then, when you find the next leg, you keep following him, and so on, little by little, little by little.”
As Kim Woong’s words continue, a cold sweat runs down his back.
“There were countless moments in the middle where I really wanted to go right away. Blackmail threats include extorting huge amounts of money from addicts by selling snow white fruit from aegyo high school. He didn’t hesitate to do anything for money. If I had not had experience in the state job, I would have intervened right away, but I closed my patience and continued to watch, acquiescing to it all.”
Jae-Jin Lee, who was sitting next to me, began to lean down slowly with an expressionless face.
It was a posture so that he could run at any time.
Seeing this, I thought, looking for my composure.
‘Yes, I have Jaejin.’
On the surface, Jaejin is simply maintaining the level of a top-level hunter.
However, Jaejin is one of the monsters that cannot be found at the moment.
‘If you drive… kill.’
While he was making up his mind, Kim Woong continued talking.
“But at some point, tracking became difficult. The higher we climbed, the more thorough the security measures became, and there were a lot of hunters who might have noticed my presence, so we had to be more careful.”
It goes without saying that the higher you go, the tighter the security and security.
“therefore.”
Kim Woong said with a dazed expression on his face.
“This time, I dug to the side. Hunters who worked with high-ranking merchants. And what the hunters did, etc.”
Kim Woong you crazy bastard.
You were really determined and investigating the Black Tiger.
I thought there might be a situation like this, so I separated the direct and collateral and kept each other’s affairs strictly secret, but I didn’t know that there were people who could do this to this extent.
“I tracked each one for a long time to see if I was missing anything. In the meantime, I learned a lot about the Black Tiger. There are many guilds and hunters under the Black Lake, and the scale is distributed across the country. Of course, even this is just the tip of the iceberg compared to the entire Black Lake.”
It’s the first time I’ve been digging this far since I made the Black Tiger.
“Then I suddenly realized. Can we come to a conclusion just by doing this research? The Black Tiger is growing faster than I am investigating. Will I be able to uncover all the truth on my own? So I came to the President.”
therefore… did you come?
I said with a bright smile.
“If that’s the case, then you’ve come to the right place. There aren’t many people who sharpen their teeth for black tigers as much as I do.”
Having a conflict with the Black Tiger and having money and power, I am the right person to best utilize the information Kim Woong has collected.
okay.
It is worthwhile to separate me and the Black Tiger completely.
“Give me that information, and I’ll track them down and smash them.”
First, figure out how far he knows.
The next thing to do is to get rid of it and twist the structure of the Black Tiger, rendering the information useless.
At my words, Kim Woong looked at me and said.
“I can’t tell you right now.”
“… Yes?”
“You need certainty. Confidence in the President.”
At those words, I blankly looked at Kim Woong and thought.
‘This bastard. You are doubting me now!!’
I mix truth and lies to keep him from making judgments.
Then, in shock, Kim Woong became suspicious of everything he had not seen with his own eyes.
The separation from the Black Tiger that I worked so hard on is just an unconfirmed truth from his point of view.
I thought for a while and said.
“You are suspicious of me.”
Then Kim Woong shook his head and said.
“I am not suspicious. I just don’t believe in the unverified truth.”
“In other words, what Guild Leader Kim Woong is asking of me right now is not proof that I am not a black tiger.”
“you’re right.”
I thought for a while and said.
“Then see you here again in a week. I will show you then.”
“… Are you saying you can convince me?”
“Of course. I haven’t been fighting the Black Tiger for a day or two, so there’s no way I’m missing out on the information I have. Some of them are not publicly disclosed. We need time to sort them out.”
Then Kim Woong got up from his chair and said,
“All right. Then I will come back in a week.”
“I will not go out to meet you. I think I’ll have to move fast from now on.”
Kim Woong nodded at my words and left the conference room.
How long has it been since the meeting room door closed?
Jaejin said with a cold expression.
“I will deal with it right away.”
At that, I shook my head and said.
“No, that is dangerous. He’s already suspicious of me. There’s no way that guy can climb without any safeguards. Who knows if they’ve made arrangements to automatically release that information if he dies.”
One of Kim Woong’s green brilliance skill stones is enough to suffer losses due to his urgent appearance.
“Besides, even if he is a regular, he came to visit me right away at a store I haven’t visited in a long time. I’m not even contacting you. What does that mean? I mean, I was also watching. To see if I can make this offer or not.”
And it was judged.
The possibility of a black tiger cannot be completely ruled out, but there is a high possibility that it is not.
That’s because I have no direct contact with Heukho, except for a secret meeting with Yoon Sang-deok and a phone call in the underground arena.
“It’s not me that’s urgent now, it’s Woong Kim.”
I am strong now.
Enough to win against anyone.
“If you need confidence, just give it confidence.”
You can’t tell the truth from a lie, so you doubt everything?
that’s a good mindset
If it wasn’t for me who could make the other person even a lie and make even the truth a lie.
I said raising the corners of my lips.
“Let’s put the handling of the bastard aside until later. After taking everything from his information and smashing his honor and pride.”
