Hoarding in Hell Novel

“To be honest, the death of the branch manager Tae-kyung Seo is unfair, but I don’t want to embarrass my juniors with a frivolous dispute. It’s even worse to see blood. The reason we decided to accept it was to reduce the possibility of disputes even a little.”

I guess so too. Oh Dae-seong is not a person who will sacrifice what he wants. He doesn't know if he sacrifices himself.

In a good way, he is a good person, and in a bad way, he is a good person. But Hyunmoo had no intention of following his thoughts.

Because the conflict between the two groups cannot be ended just like this.

“CEO, I actually have something in mind.”

"Have you thought of anything?"

"Yeah. This is a way to do real damage to Tae-seong without hurting anyone or bleeding. It's a way for us to benefit, too, and it's quite embarrassing for Tae-sung."

"Huh, you mean something like that?"

"Yes,"

Hyunmoo smiled and opened his mouth.

"Please select only a few rookie hunters that the CEO has been keeping an eye on. And it seems that you will need a small deposit. You don't need a large amount. I think it will be about 1 billion won. I will charge the settlement fee separately later."

***

The office of the head of the Taeseong clan.

"I went there."

The news that Hyunmoo was attached to Almighty Ryeon reached Taeseong's ears first than anywhere else.

Lee Ji-tae heard a direct report from a collaborator, one of the Almighty Alliance executives. There was almost no time difference from the end of the Almighty Alliance executive meeting.

"No. We didn't expect it either. I thought we would continue to play solo with Dokgodai. Seeing him suddenly moving so vigorously, he seems to have been preparing to jump up to this point."

Or something stimulated the movement.

Lee Ji-tae saw Kang Hyunmoo's performance and was convinced that he was the one who discovered the unidentified crystal moss.

We have not yet found out for sure about the identity of Crystal Moss, nor about the person Kang Hyunmoo, but he suddenly joined the Almighty Alliance.

If he had joined the compatible Mama at the very least, he would have thought it was because he was dissatisfied with himself. But the Almighty... … To be honest, Lee Ji-tae's gaze at Almighty Ryeon was close to that of a trash can.

All potential talents were taken away by other clans, and only the remnants were united to form a cluster.

There were even times when the clans at the lower ranks of the Almighty Alliance were qualitatively better.

Of course, most of the industries based on dungeons are rolling thanks to the cheap hunters who belong there. However, most of the upper heads were clearly rotten except for the five fortresses.

"Please keep an eye on it for now. We'll find out what the intent is."

Lee Ji-tae felt his ears rot, so he cut down on unnecessary calls and tried to hang up. But the other side said something that upset him until the end.

"There is no need to say that we believe in Tae-seong. We certainly have nothing to do with the death of Branch Manager Seo Tae-kyung. That's a fact that we can all know just by looking at the video. One of the expedition members who went back to the place where Chief Seo Tae-kyung was. Because there is no one!"

Lee Ji-tae put down his cell phone roughly. Tae-seong's administrative team leader, Tae-min-soo, who was watching from the side, made a complicated expression.Lee Ji-tae is not the type to take anger out on machines. However, since he returned from the Chuncheon dungeon, his nerves were sharp.

It is probably because of the Taeseong team victims from the truncation dungeon.

'Perhaps he is blaming himself that he might have been alive if he had gone.'

But in addition to that, Tae-kyung Seo's team was also annihilated, and hearing that Tae-seong was responsible would only make him even more upset.

"Kang Hyunmoo."

Lee Ji-tae suddenly opened his mouth. Taemin-su held his back straight and listened.

"It sounds like Kang Hyunmoo has joined the Almighty."

"It's an unexpected move, but isn't it better? Up to this point, we've been trying to find out who is behind Kang Hyunmoo, but we haven't found anything. There are a lot of people on our side in the Almighty, so there will be more eyes and ears to see."

"Would you be so lax? The team sent to the haunted mansion didn't even get close."

Taemin-soo bit his mouth. The haunted mansion is a kind of code name for the underground bunker where Hyunmoo lives, and it was a nickname that Hyunmoo had even before he lived.

A team hired to secure the subterranean bunker with surveillance equipment broke in, and all lost consciousness before being found at the entrance of the mountain. Not everyone knew what had happened.

“So the more people watching, the more likely you are to make a mistake.”

Well.

Lee Ji-tae was negative.

Kang Hyunmoo was a person who had completely hidden his identity until this time. In his recent walk, all records were uncertain and unreliable.

He acted as if he had been judged for the first time, but one day his level suddenly rose like crazy, he appeared wearing equipment he had never seen before, and he was expanding his boundaries in all directions.

Even among the Obsidian team, there were people who regarded Hyunmoo as a hero.

Hyunmoo's reckless behavior instilled strange anxiety in Lee Ji-tae.

"Oh, how do we respond to the statement made by General Manager Oh Dae-sung criticizing us? We should have to make a statement."

"I don't really care about public opinion anyway. It will end with an empty cry from Director Oh Dae-sung. It's not our fault just looking at the video, but how..."

At that time, Lee Ji-tae clouded the tail of his horse. His pupils constricted momentarily.

"Team Min-soo Tae, when the Almighty-Ryeon team and the Tae-Sung team split up, all those who weren't there were either dead or injured, right?"

"Uh, that's right. A few people joined later."

"Weren't there Kang Hyunmoo back then?"

Taemin-soo immediately noticed what Lee Ji-tae was talking about. The expedition members who joined later were all acting cooperatively, but Kang Hyunmoo moved alone all the time. He was even able to beat boss mobs by himself.

“…Is this what Kang Hyunmoo intended?”

"I don't know. For now, we'll have to wait and see. He's the hero who stopped the treacherous dungeon flood.

Lee Ji-tae's thoughts quickly became complicated. If it happened because of someone's intention, the probability of it being Kang Hyunmoo was quite high.

The body cam wasn't recorded, and the only thing that wasn't certain was Kang Hyunmoo.

Lee Ji-tae was concerned that the situation was going in an increasingly out of control direction.

"Team Minsoo Tae, are you interested in global warming?"

"Yeah? Uh, yeah. It's been particularly hot this summer."

"Do you know why we are insisting on preventing global warming at an early stage? It is because of the solidified gas called methane hydrate sleeping under the sea. Many people think that if it is just three or four degrees hotter than it is now, why not turn on the air conditioner? "

But it's not that simple.

“The problem is that when the seawater gets warmer, the methane hydrate melts and becomes pure gas, which rises to the surface. When the gas starts to rise, the climate starts to get hotter. And the warmer air warms the seawater even more, A lot of methane hydrate goes up, and as this happens over and over again, the global temperature goes up endlessly."

Tae Min-soo knew that Lee Ji-tae was very interested in science fiction. It was a story that could only appear in a science fiction novel, but it was also a concern with a realistic basis.

"The moment the first methane hydrate comes up, it's already too late. The ruin is already beginning. I think that's what Kang Hyunmoo's appearance meant. I think it might be nothing."

"Do you think Kang Hyunmoo Hunter would be that intimidating?"

Lee Ji-tae didn't answer. Right now, Kang Hyunmoo is not a threat.

If Taeseong shows his strength, Kang Hyunmoo can lightly crush him. But Lee Ji-tae didn't want to do that. So that shouldn't be the case.

“Did the think tank say there was someone behind Kang Hyunmoo?”

"Of course it is, isn't it? Without overseas collaborators, the existence of Kang Hyunmoo cannot be explained."

But Lee Ji-tae shook his head. He, too, once thought similarly to other executives, but the more he constantly observed him, the more his thinking changed.

He felt unrestrained violence, recklessness as if he was running towards death, an unhidden need for recognition, a creepy strategist temperament, and a greed that seemed to devour the whole world.

And the more he got to know him, the more confident he became.

“Kang Hyunmoo should be sitting next to me.”

Lee Ji-tae clenched his fists and murmured.

"He is a force that he cannot control himself. Even he does not know his potential. Only I can recognize him and make him shine. He will become stronger in the sword named Kang Hyunmoo, the black Taeseong."

Lee Ji-tae said with strength and certainty.

"You must bring Kang Hyunmoo with me."

***

Two days later, Hyunmoo headed to the training club where the hunters were waiting.

When an unusual foreign car appeared, the hunters around looked at it with curious eyes.

Most of them belonged to the Almighty League, and although they were hunters, there were few cases where they were wealthy enough to buy a foreign car at will.

But among them, the car that Hyunmoo brought was a rare car that he had never seen before.

Now, Hyunmoo was also used to the gaze, but other thoughts took precedence over arrogance.

'I didn't know Mr. Hwiso Park was such a person who enjoyed his gaze.'

Could this hobby have arisen because I work in the shade and inconspicuously?

A story came to mind that in some countries, luxury with clothes was banned, so smoking began to add to the luxury.Anyway, Hyunmoo started heading to the training club. There, he was planning to visit some of the hunters who were carefully selected by Oh Dae-seong.

It is no exaggeration to say that the training club that nurtures new hunters is the most important institution in the clan.

However, Hyunmoo's expression, which stopped in front of the club, was subtly hardened.

A subtle structure made of sandwich panels was erected in an empty vacant lot.

The frame was exposed, and traces of rust were visible, and there were only a few dreary sports facilities that could only be found in a park.

It didn't seem like a training space for hunters at all.

At that moment, a man with a sharp impression standing at the entrance approached. Although he was young, he had a high-pressure but cool impression in a neatly dressed suit.

It doesn't look right for a space close to ruins, but Hyunmoo instinctively felt that this person was in charge.

"Are you Kang Hyunmoo Hunter?"

"okay."

"My name is Ji-hoo Seo. I'm here to guide Hunter Kang Hyunmoo."

Seo Ji-hoo showed no signs of hesitation, bowed his head lightly and began to take the lead.

Hyunmoo is confident in his self-confidence. Does the Almighty have such talented people? and was a little puzzled. Of course, it was better than being rude.

So he's in charge of these ruins.

"You seem too precious to be in charge of such a shabby place, is it even demotion?"

"What do you mean?"

Seo Ji-hoo looked at Hyunmoo with sharp eyes. Rather than being angry, the color of his eyes seemed to be the same.

"I'm not the manager here. I'm an intern training manager who joined the company a month ago. Please be careful."

"……Intern?"

"Since the probationary was completed last week, from this month on, I am a full-time intern who will receive 1.2 million won without any deductions."

No, what intern is so overbearing? Anyone who sees it will know it's Lee Ji-tae. In terms of his impression, he looks like Lee Ji-tae without human beauty and heart.

"No, who in the world uses a training manager as an intern?"

The training manager has a huge role in checking the schedule and training process of new hunters.

He didn't think he was going to roll properly, looking at the camp, but he didn't know that a month-old intern would be with him.

"It looks like he's not even a Hunter? The person in charge of the facility?"

“I applied for a white-collar job, but my predecessor quit and got a temporary appointment. And all the full-time employees either left early or didn’t go to work.”

Hyunmoo chuckled. looks good back Even if it's a parachute, the branch manager came and he sent out an intern without a person in charge or responsibility?

He wasn't the type to follow protocol, but his intentions were so clear that it was absurd.

'This is what I look like.'

It was clear that it was not done by the person in charge here, but rather by someone who didn't like Hyunmoo somewhere above Almighty.
