42 – The Great People of China
“So, what were the findings?”
“Yes, as reported by Dante. Everything they investigated is turning out to be true.”
The Hunter Association, which conducted a thorough tax investigation on Olympos based on the collected information
While receiving the results, Munhwa-ryun, an executive of the association, nodded slowly.
“Indeed… It was true that China was behind the scenes. It was cleverly arranged through a ghost company, but it is rather amazing that it did not get caught even after pouring such a large amount of money.”
“There was a situation where several executives in the department were bribed. We are investigating those parts as well, so we will proceed with the punishment soon.”
“Of course you should, but you have nothing to do, so you’re trying to sell out the country like this? To be punished severely without mercy.”
“Yes, I will keep that in mind.”
Olympus, which committed the incident, was also a problem, but one of the fundamental causes of this happening from the cultural association’s point of view was the fault of the relevant ministries who were not paying attention to the end of the matter.
The prestige of the hunter guild and association is increasing day by day in relation to the appearance of demons.
However, compared to such growth, it was true that crackdowns on those involved in the insider had progressed quite softly, and the overall atmosphere had also been relaxed.
Amidst this reality, the Cultural Reunion seriously felt the need to reform within the association, while also beginning to think that it was necessary to take this opportunity to reinforce discipline on a large scale.
Of course, before that, she had something to deal with right now.
“Then, now that we have secured the evidence, arrest the Olympus officials immediately.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Let’s arrest not only the executives of the prefectural association, but also those with suspicious origins, including S-class hunter Lee Seol-yeong. Just in case, I’ll let you move the top S-class hunters in the association.”
“Yes, I will do it right away.”
Originally, the government of the Republic of Korea was slow to do such a thing, and in that regard, the cultural association was also thinking that it had wasted too much time collecting evidence and getting permission.
However, even if it was a little late, it was necessary to act immediately once the number was captured.
She was not aware of the fact that being late is better than not doing it.

Late at night when the sun goes down and darkness sets in.
A group of people were slowly entering a small port off the coast of Incheon.
A place that does not attract attention from other people because it is located in a remote place.
In a single vehicle that arrived there, the three of them began to carefully get out.
“It’s okay. No one.”
“After..”
They move cautiously while looking around.
Although they were holding a weapon in one hand just in case, the three of them had no choice but to move as much as possible in the midst of intense tension.
Currently, the Olympus Guild is literally being robbed of its soul while under extensive investigation.
Now that the people involved are being arrested in droves, starting with the tax investigation, Lee Seol-yeong was on the move to stow away with only her compatriots Noh Hyun-ah and Won Na-young.
“The smuggling ship has arrived as scheduled. I think I can get out of there without difficulty.”
“Good. Then let’s start right away.”
A shabby fishing boat in front of you.
Unlike the first time I came to Korea, I took a plane and came proudly. The fact that she had to run away even on a boat like this started to give them a very dirty feeling.
‘Damn it.. How could I be humiliated like this because of inferior Korean guys like me..’
The fact that such an insult was inflicted on the great Chinese people in a barbarian country the size of a pea made her feel even more resentful.
The three of them boarded the ship while grinding their teeth like that.
Thus, the ship carrying them left the port and began to move toward the dark sea where you could not see an inch ahead.
“After..”
“I feel a little relieved now..”
The three feel a deep sense of relief knowing that fortunately no one seems to be tracking them.
Then, Noh Hyun-ah and Won Na-young started to talk carefully among themselves.
“Then… there is no need to be anxious now, right?”
“That’s right, I don’t know, but once we go back to our home country, even if it’s hard to be treated like a hero, wouldn’t they treat us to some extent? Even though we failed, how hard we have been through all this time.”
“Well… Honestly, it was quite difficult to act as a hunter in a country the size of a snot.”
“But that is over now. From now on, we just have to work as great Chinese hunters. While being praised by hundreds of millions of people, you will enjoy incomparable wealth and honor compared to when you were in Korea.”
“That’s right, even though we look like this, our names are quite well known in Korea. Just like singers and celebrities did in the past, I’m going to forget about the gutter and start anew.”
Although the appearance of leaving was miserable, nonetheless, at this moment, they were looking forward to a rosy future for themselves.
From noble mtl dot com.
As Korean A-rank hunters, they built up their own skills and reputation.
Although the process of leaving was turbulent, she believed that based on this, she would be able to enjoy movies again while drawing attention and popularity from the people of the continent.
But…
At this moment, while watching the two of them, Seolyoung Lee was quietly laughing at the two of them while maintaining her silence.
‘Treatment in China.. hehehe. Do you think only A-rank hunters can survive after failing their mission?’
Unlike the two, Lee Seol-young has direct ties to the Industrial and Commercial Party of China.
According to the information she heard, she was greatly disappointed with the three of them at the time she heard about this situation.
They were the ones who blew away the huge amount of money and time they had invested in order to use it as a stepping stone to occupy Korea.
In this regard, it was already decided to punish the three of them severely, but despite this, Seolyoung Lee completely concealed that fact and she was moving along with the other two.
The reason was simple.
Unlike Noh Hyun-ah and Won Na-young, Lee Seol-young’s case was already exempted from punishment for this incident through her parents’ power and her rarity as an S-class hunter.
In addition, she was supposed to receive a small reward in the name of doing her best for her country.
The Korean government has already paved the way for her to slightly fix her face and act as an S-class hunter in China without bothering them.
On the other hand, the two, who are relatively common A-class hunters in China, were scheduled to receive very heavy punishment on behalf of Lee Seol-young, taking full responsibility for this incident.
Although they were the same compatriots and had been carrying out missions together, Lee Seol-young had no hesitation in abandoning them.
In the first place, their role was to assist themselves at most.
From her point of view, she was nothing more than her shogi horse that she could use and discard at any time, and in that sense, in overcoming her crisis, she decided to cleanly throw away her two ‘tools’. Was
‘Because these b*tches and I are fundamentally different. Contrary to what came with it as a bonus, I am a body that has been called by the great China. Comparing me to these guys is just ridiculous.’
Turning his gaze away from the two guys who were relieved without knowing anything, Lee Seol-yeong began to close her eyes amidst the fatigue that began to rush in as her tension eased.
The other two also started to doze off due to the aftermath of the hectic day.
And,
The captain, who was silently driving the boat while watching them, put his hand on his ear slowly and spoke in a calm voice.
“I got it. Let’s go there right now. Mr. Aztas.”
