36 – The more you know, the weirder the year
“Then, thank you for your hard work today.”
“Yes, have a good weekend and see you next week.”
Seon Woo-jin comes out after saying hello to his co-workers.
Literally looking like a typical office worker coming home from work, he left the front door and started heading towards the subway.
Then…
“Manager Seon Woo-jin?”
“Huh?”
A voice in my ears as if I had heard it somewhere.
Seon Woo-jin stopped walking and looked back.
Immediately after that, a man began to appear in his eyes.
It’s been a long time since I couldn’t see it, but Seon Woo-jin was able to remember who the other person was without difficulty, seeing the person’s appearance that could not be called ordinary.
“Ah.. So.. You must have been an immigrant hunter, right?”
“Yes, that’s right. How have you been, Manager?”
With those words, Lee Min-min shook hands with a warm smile on his lips.
In response, Seon Woo-jin took his hand and accepted it with a light expression.
“Well, I’ve been doing well… But what’s going on here?”
“hahahaha, is there anything special? I just happened to see the manager on the way passing by and said hello. If you have time, would you like to have a cup of tea? I will buy it as I have a debt I owed earlier.”
“Shall we do that? After all, there is nothing special about this right now.”
Lee Min-min, who naturally makes a proposal using his past connections, Seon Woo-jin accepted his request without showing much doubt about this, and the two of them moved to a nearby cafe and started talking. Went on
“How are you immigrant hunters these days?”
“I am doing well. Thanks to Manager Seon Woo-jin’s attention the other day, there was no problem.”
Lee Min-min speaks in a friendly voice, as he had a history of receiving help from Manager Seon Woo-jin while at Olympus in the past.
Then, he carefully began to rhyme with Seon Woo-jin in order to get to the point.
“I heard the story. You left Olympus and moved the guild to Asgart?”
“hahahaha.. Yeah, well, it just happened that way.”
“You did very well. To be honest, no matter how much money you pay, I’d rather go out and find another room than live in that place.”
As a former hunter from Olympus, but as a result of being beaten so damned there, he ended up resigning as a former immigrant, so he is not just for personal business, but for the actions of this man in front of his eyes. I couldn’t help but fully agree.
“I am saying this now, but working under Lee Seol-young literally felt like brushing my teeth. She is like that woman, and her entourage, and the people she hangs around with, and how a person can be so hateful every moment is quite amazing.”
“Yes, it certainly was. Now that I think about it, I wonder how the hell they managed to survive there. To the point where if someone asks me to go back, I want to give them a shot right away.”
Seon Woo-jin speaks with a mixture of jokes and seriousness.
Regarding his words, Lee Min-min nodded in reply without losing his smile.
“That’s right. How can hunters catch people better than mines? It was a time I never really want to think about again.”
“hahahaha yes, that’s right.”
Lee Min shudders slightly while talking in a joking tone.
Immediately after that, he chose the timing a little inwardly, and continued his words toward Manager Seon Woo-jin, who was sitting in front of him.
“But it’s a relief, I heard that the Hunter, who was managed by Manager Seon Woo-jin this time, went up to A-rank in an instant? Killing demons by hitting them at once with tremendous power… “
“hahahaha.. Yes.. Well.. That’s right..”
Seon Woo-jin answers Yi-min’s words with a slightly awkward voice.
Watching his reaction, Lee Min-min continued to ignore his words.
“As expected, Manager Seon Woo-jin’s ability is amazing. He was one of the best people I know at discovering and nurturing talented hunters. From what I’ve heard, that hunter named Nyale is a complete rookie who had no records before…”
“Ummm… That… It’s not. I just got lucky.”
Seon Woo-jin answers while slightly avoiding eye contact.
However, at this moment Lee Min could understand.
Seon Woo-jin’s reaction to his own words.
That is not to say that there is no feeling of embarrassment about praising one’s achievements.
‘Anxiety..? I don’t know what you’re worried about…’
With that thought in mind, Lee Min-min decided to talk about this part for today and began to turn the story to the other side.
To be honest, I wanted to continue digging into this story in detail, but if I told a story that stood out too much, there was a risk that things would go wrong.
Right now, we have no choice but to remain vigilant from the other side’s point of view.
At this stage, it was still only possible to acquire information about the level of gentle ripples caused by lightly touching the material, as if it were lightly scattered on the surface of the water.
A more in-depth and in-depth story will be possible only after time has passed and friendship has accumulated.
“In my case, I work as a security guard for a company near here. Perhaps thanks to that, you will come to this area often. When will you have a drink?”
“That wouldn’t be bad either, having people who resigned from the same job catch me and have a drink.”
Lee Min-min spends his time talking about such small things.
Although the information he dug up through this meeting was not so much, Lee Min-min was able to recognize only one fact instinctively.
‘Certainly… There seems to be something, though I’ll have to find out if it’s enough to surprise the Hunter Association…’
*
Nyale, an A-class hunter belonging to Asgart.
The members of her Dante, who were conducting her investigation on her, felt that the more they knew why, the more their doubts about her grew.
It has been two weeks since the current investigation was conducted.
As they put their findings together, they automatically frowned.
“It is surprising that people’s living patterns can be so seriously monotonous..”
“That’s right. How can only house company house company be repeated infinitely? Even I, who used to be a hunter before, didn’t go this far.”
“Even on weekends, Ai doesn’t come out of the house, and that’s because he’s confined to that cramped one-room goshiwon room.”
“Are you playing games all night long..? To be honest, I didn’t get that impression…”
Nyale, who doesn’t do any outdoor activities outside and shows a seriously monotonous pattern.
Choi Chung-won and Oh Hee-bin couldn’t help but think that they were slightly fed up while watching her life pattern of not taking a walk or taking part in leisure activities, even eating out.
“At least, the only thing I see from time to time is stopping by somewhere and buying a lot of food..”
“Honestly, that’s a bit strange, oppa, what kind of woman is going to buy 10 pizzas and 30 hamburgers by herself?”
“Well.. Considering that I haven’t bought any other food for three days after buying a lot, I think I might have been eating it all the time..”
From noble mtl dot com.
“Three meals for three days with only pizza… Umm… just thinking about it makes my stomach ache.”
She has a tolerance (?) To eating as much as she has lived a hard life. The content makes even Oh Hee-bin, who is proud of herself, startled.
Contrary to her normal appearance, the more they get to know her, the more they see her life pattern, which makes them think that she is a geek.
‘There definitely seems to be something… What the hell is that?’
