75 – Revenge (3)
Oh Tae-sik cleaned up before disappearing. At the time he was working, he was not worried, but after he was working, he became worried later.
If this gets caught, I will definitely die.
The division of duties is well done, so there is little chance of being caught embezzlement. But it’s just that the odds are small, and if you’re unlucky, you might get caught.
For some reason, he was insecure, so he listened to the trends within the guild, while taking a vacation to buy time to work. A sigh of relief flowed out as the approval of the leave came lightly.
I didn’t notice either.
It is late at night. Oh Tae-sik headed to the warehouse outside Daejeon where the goods were stored. When I open the warehouse door and go inside, I see items on the shelves.
There were so many types of items that some were kept entirely in subspace pockets. All of these things make money.
“It would be difficult to categorize this.”
He worked quickly, like roasting beans in a flash of lightning, and didn’t do anything unnecessary. For example, checking items one by one, such as confirmation work.
Oh Tae-shik took out a file folder and began to check the embezzled items one by one.
“Oh.”
But something is strange.
“What is this?”
I check the items one by one, but some items are missing.
“Am I missing something?”
It can be. For security, they hired a daily truck driver from outside the guild, rather than an internal guild, and used a part-time job. They are not professional people. Professionals are neat, but non-professionals are not neat.
“Uh uh….”
But when I checked again, it wasn’t missing. When I compare each item in the file folder with the real thing, most expensive items are gone. It is mainly for light items that are easy to transport.
“The fact that it disappeared so sparsely… It’s not that it’s missing, it’s that someone intentionally left it out.”
In an instant, the back of my head was clear. Oh Tae-shik immediately thought of a truck driver and a part-time worker.
But… Those bastards wouldn’t know that this was an embezzlement item.
There are only a few people big enough to openly steal from a huge guild. It’s something that only special people like you can do.
Are they as awake as you?
Moreover, he gave me a lot of money, saying it was the price of hard work. I remember the expression on their faces, who were delighted after receiving the money without knowing what it was. It was very bright.
“… Did you accidentally miss it while carrying it?”
Oh Tae-sik thought rationally. He moved immediately after making his judgment. Knowing that this might happen, he moved some items himself. All of them are expensive things.
“Ugh.”
But he obviously didn’t even see the items he had moved on the shelf. This doesn’t mean it’s missing, it means the warehouse has been robbed.
“… Who the hell!”
Oh Tae-shik’s instinctive intuition spoke.
Part-time job!
The truck driver is old enough to know the cost of a crime. He knows what will happen if he gets caught.
However, relatively young part-timers are more likely to commit crimes fearlessly.
“But….”
There is no evidence. Evidence….
However, in case you don’t know, should I contact you and threaten you?
It was then.
Drreuk.
The warehouse door suddenly opened.
“What!”
I screamed in surprise, but the inside of the warehouse became bright as if a searchlight had been turned on, and some people appeared.
“Caught. Embezzler.”
Oh Tae-shik knows those faces. They are members of the executive department who are in charge of the guild’s illegal work.
* * *
I was inspecting the warehouse from afar. Oh Tae-sik was dragged out of the warehouse while I was watching, wondering how things would be handled.
From noble mtl dot com
“I don’t know!”
He shouted desperately.
“This bastard is reaching all the way.”
“You look like you want to die, right?”
Oh Tae-sik exclaimed as if he was unfair.
“It is true that he embezzled!”
“This is true.”
“By the way, I haven’t stolen anything yet! Really!”
“No. Less right.”
People in black suits beat Oh Tae-sik. Oh Tae-shik’s screams were heard as he shouted that it was unfair and that he was not himself.
Bagak, squeak.
Immediately after that, the sound of breaking bones was terrifying. The people in black suits were unstoppable.
“How do you feel about being honest now?”
“I, I don’t know….”
“This guy is a bad guy.”
“Because he is so strong, he thinks of embezzling guild goods.”
“What should I do?”
“Break both arms, break both legs.”
I thought of my previous life while watching Oh Tae-shik being beaten up. In my previous life, I robbed him of my wages, but my livelihood was not greatly threatened.
But the other people I worked with were different. They couldn’t afford it and were facing livelihood threats. Among them, after being seriously injured while working, there was a person who made an extreme choice when he found out later that he was not covered by accident insurance.
When I think of them, I don’t feel sorry for Oh Tae-sik’s beating.
“Cheuk.”
“How is it? Do you want to talk now?”
“I am not me!”
“This bastard is reaching all the way. Hey, just kill it because it’s annoying.”
Oh Tae-shik’s eyes flashed at the sound of death.
“My, it’s not me, I’m a part-timer!”
“A part-time job?”
“That, yes… ! He stole your stuff!”
The people in black suits talked among themselves, then asked Tae-sik Oh questions and collected information. It seemed to be working.
After a while, the person who beat Oh Tae-shik the most said,
“Hey. They say that if you stretch out from above, you will just die?”
“…… Ah, the part-time job….”
“Since it’s annoying, let’s just die.”
“Uh, uh…. No.”
“Okay!”
They were quicker and neater than I expected. After dealing with Oh Tae-shik, he dug up the ground and buried the body there. The work was quick, like very skilled people. It seems that he has killed and buried people many times.
“Since work is over, shall we have a late-night snack?”
The person who cut Oh Tae-shik’s head said.
“What are you going to eat?”
The person who dug the ground the hardest asked.
“Chicken.”
“Chicken is expensive, so let’s eat pork feet.”
The shortest person among them gave an opinion, and the person who seemed to be the most senior asked.
“Are you buying?”
“Yes.”
They disappeared like the wind as they came. I wished Oh Tae-sik a small condolence.
It’s a pain in the ass.

Kang Yoo-han patiently waited for the woman. Her pride is hurt, but he is Eul, not Gap.
After a while, black smoke came in from the window outside the president’s office, creating a silhouette of a person in front of her nose.
Yuhan Kang swallowed her saliva.
The silhouette soon took on a human form and became a woman. She is a black-haired woman with a voluptuous body.
Kang Yoo-han jumped up from the spot.
“Are you here?”
Like the last time, the woman ignored her greeting and just said what she had to say.
“You did well on the orders I told you to.”
“Yes.”
“Good job.”
“Thank you.”
Kang Yoo-han’s pride was hurt because of his natural inferiority, but he endured it. When he thinks of his own son Kang Il-nam, he can stand it. When I think of my son who is doing today and tomorrow at the age of over 70….
If I can pass on the blessing of immortality to my son, this is all I can bear.
The woman said.
“I will ask you one more favor.”
At her words, Kang Yoo-han’s forehead narrowed.
“Now I want to receive a reward rather than a request.”
“It’s just a small request.”
“Even if it’s nothing…. Her son’s life is coming to an end. And….”
Kang Yoo-han said carefully.
“And?”
“I am over 150 years old. I don’t want to show my age, but at least I want you to respect me. The picture is not very good.”
In the meantime, Yuhan Kang has been doing a lot of things, like her limbs, doing the woman’s favor. She also took risks. She thought she could, so she uttered this much she said.
However, it seemed that the remark sounded repugnant to the woman.
“150 Years old?”
“Yes.”
“How old do you think I am?”
Kang Yuhan raised her head. She looked at her body and looked at her face.
“Twenty years old….”
As soon as the woman heard that, she folded her fingers and counted her number.
“One, two, three… Ten one, ten two. Thirteen.”
She counted to thirteen without hesitation.
There are 13 episodes until this episode.
She straightened her folded fingers and said with a serious face.
“Even though I look like I am 20 years old, I am over 300 years old.”
Kang Yuhan was dumbfounded, so she replied.
“What?”
“Really.”
It’s been about 150 years since the world changed, but I can’t believe I’m over 300 years old. If she’s right, that means she hasn’t aged since she was 150 years ago, before the world changed and she had her powers. Nonsense.
After all, you’re saying you want to keep going.
Kang Yuhan groaned, but she couldn’t argue with her words anymore. She herself is Gap, not Gap.
“Anyway, my son is not feeling well. If you don’t receive immortality, you can die at any time.”
“Can’t you just ask me to wait a little longer?”
“No. Now, you have to give something in return before asking for it.”
The woman thought.
Durability wears out quickly in this episode.
She considered people as tools. So, she thought, just as tools deteriorate with prolonged use, people also deteriorate with prolonged use.
It’s no longer useful.
If this is the case, we need to move forward with the plan sooner.
The woman said at the end of her thoughts.
“Okay. Think of your son and start by repaying him. Wait a week Can you wait this long?”
“Thank you.”
“Then see you in a week.”
The woman disappeared just as suddenly as when she came. Kang Yoo-han caught his breath.
Damn it.
At that time, the secretary’s office called. When I answered the phone, it was a call saying that the parents of the Mines who had lost their lives had come to visit.
