Return To Level Up

Hwang Soo-young smiled slightly and looked at the four people sitting in front of her.

It was obvious that she was smiling, but the atmosphere was not so cold.

Now this place was Dungeon Breaker's conference room.

In fact, there was no meeting room until recently, but this time she moved the guild headquarters and she created several meeting rooms.

Until recently, there was only one office, but now the building was purchased and used.

She didn't do this because she made a lot of money, but she got an investment.

A-Market made an investment, but in fact, there was Hajin Kang behind it. Hajin Kang invested in Dungeon Breaker through A-Market.

I wanted to invest in other irregulars overseas as well, but they did well on their own without having to do so.

Because it was pouring out generous support from the government level.

In Korea alone, the treatment of the heroes of this disaster was poor.

And behind him were the people who are now sitting in front of Hwang Soo-young. No, there were those who called them.

"Ummm... So you're saying you're going to invest in our guild?"

"Yeah. Simply put, yes.”

“But what about this? We have already received an investment……”

“I know A-Market has invested in Dungeon Breaker. It’s a very popular thing in this industry.”

A-Market started various investments in Korea's Awakening Guild, starting with the Guardian. Dungeon Breaker was one of them.

In fact, most of the investments that Hajin Kang made through A-Market were unknown to them.

“You can think of our investment as just a gift.”

“A gift?”

“It means you don’t want a profit dividend.”

“Then it’s not an investment, is it?”

“Well, I would appreciate it if you could accept that I just want to keep a good relationship.”

Hwang Soo-young scratched the back of his head.

“There is a motto that says not to take money for nothing.”

There is no such motto. But I didn't want to associate with them. To be honest, I wasn't really in need of money.

And if you hold on to Ha-jin as strong as you are, there will probably be no need for money going forward.

“This is really difficult.”

When the man who had been leading the conversation for the first time made a troubled expression, another person who had been watching until then came out. She was this time she was a woman.

“You are doubting our intentions.”

“Ah, no doubt. Am I stupid for that? I'm just doing this because I like to kick monsters. I’m not good at doubts, thoughts, and worries.”

She smiled so brightly and said things like that, and it suited her well.

“Honestly, we thought Hwang Soo-young would be suspicious. I wonder if our guild is trying to absorb the Dungeon Breaker.”

Hwang Soo-young's eyes widened.

"Yes? absorption? Are you really going to do that?”

The woman's eyes drew soft arcs.

“Is it possible? It's never going to happen. We want something different.”

“Yeah, there was something I wanted. If you give me such a big price, I don't think it's normal to want what you want... I don’t know what it is.”

The woman smiled softly and said.

“Listen to me for a moment.”

“Well… that’s right.”

“We are fully aware of how powerful and powerful Dungeon Breaker is right now. To merge a guild of this size is not easy. Maybe it will fail.”

If you try and fail, the damage will be indescribable.

“As you know, organizations like us hate change. I hate adventure. What we are looking for is stability.”

It meant that they extended the word “established power” for a long time. Hwang Soo-young thought about it and listened quietly.

“We want to walk with Dungeon Breakers.”

So, I will open the door, so it means that you should enter the vested interests quickly.

Hwang Soo-young looked at them with suspicion. Unsurprisingly, the story they wanted came out in earnest.

“But, the people who hunted with Hwang Soo-young. I heard you don't belong to Dungeon Breaker, is that right?"

Only then did Hwang Soo-young realize their intentions.

“It doesn’t belong to us.”

"Ah! That's fortunate. Could you please arrange a meeting with them?”

Hwang Soo-young made a puzzled expression.

“If you want to meet, you can contact me directly, right? I don't think it's going to change anything if I arrange it..."

“You haven’t been contacted. So by the way, please help me a little. Do you still see each other often?”

“We do meet. But I do not intend to force them to meet that they do not want to meet.”

“I fully understand. Just say it one more time. But wouldn’t it be a little different if Hwang Soo-young talked about it?”

“Are you going to recruit them?”

“I will not deny it. But that doesn't necessarily mean we're good. They don't get along well with the guild they belonged to before. If you come to us, those problems will be solved at once. So please, please.”

Hwang Soo-young's expression hardened slightly. But in the end he had to nod his head.

"I see. Let me tell you something first. But I can't promise that we'll see each other."

"of course. That's enough. Thank you very much."

The four returned with bright expressions.

And Hwang Soo-young immediately called Yoon Kyung-min. Originally, it was supposed to go to Ha-jin Kang, but because we meet often these days, Kyung-min Yoon was much more comfortable.

After talking on the phone with Yoon Kyung-min for a while, she looked refreshed.

* * *

Hajin Kang walked slowly. As she roamed the streets, she never thought she would see him.

‘Well, the company isn’t far from here.’

Jeyoung Group's headquarters building was near Gwanghwamun.

The person Kang Ha-jin discovered was Jo Won-young, the successor of the Je-young group, and one of the men who slapped Ha-jin in the back of her head before her return.

Jo Won-young was walking on her sidewalk alone.

At first glance, he seems to be alone, but in fact, more than ten bodyguards were keeping a distance and protecting him.

Jo Won-young was also an awakened, and the bodyguards protecting him were all awakened.

So, no matter what happens, you will be able to react flexibly.

Hajin Kang continued to follow him.

She kept her distance so she didn't notice that someone was following her.

Still, if you keep chasing like this, you'll eventually find it strange. So it was necessary to change the way once in the middle.

From then on, you have to be more careful.

I was afraid I was going to fall, but a few Awakened people who were leading the way went into the alley.

Ha-jin Kang remembered the alley nearby and entered the alley right next to it.

At about the same time, Jo Won-young also turned to the alley where the Awakened had entered.

Hajin Kang moved quickly. So, I arrived at the intersection where I could pass when I entered the alley earlier.

From there, she used the [Hide and Seek] skill appropriately, checked the intersection of alleys and alleys, and followed them by moving in advance.

After moving so hard, I confirmed that Jo Won-young was going somewhere.

It was a small bar, and there was probably the only person Jo Won-young wanted to meet.

Several security guards guarded the entrance to the bar. And the bodyguards entered the bar.

It was a small two-story building, and all the nearby buildings were the same height.

Security guards also entered the building on either side, so I went behind the building.

There was another building close behind the building, but there was still enough space for one person to pass.

And there was a door leading to the kitchen. Of course, one of the bodyguards was also seen standing around.

If you use [Hide and Seek], you can enter the kitchen, but you don't have to.

As you can see, Jo Won-young went up to the second floor. So, why not just go upstairs?

Hajin Kang climbed up the wall.

There was a small window on the second floor, and I stuck to it and glanced inside.

And I could see who Jo Won-young was meeting.

‘Junggi?’

The person Jo Won-young met was undoubtedly Ji Chang-gi.

It must be busy and dangerous these days because we are in the middle of a war, but I didn't know that I would come out and meet Jo Won-young.

It wasn't just the crowbar, I saw other people. Among them was one foreigner. But I didn't know who they were.

Through a peek, I could find out who they were, what their name was, and what skills they had, but I couldn't figure out their affiliation.

Hajin Kang decided to listen to the conversation first. Concentrating the magic in my ears, I could clearly hear the conversation inside.

He now has to pay attention to his [hide and seek] skill, because he can't just focus on it, and he can't be found out about being here.

From the looks of it, it seemed that the bodyguard below had no intention of protecting it. He still wasn't vigilant.

“You seem to be having a hard time these days, are you okay?”

It was Jo Won-young's words. Ji Chang-gi answered calmly.

“It will not be difficult. After all, isn't it all stinky? If you give a little support to the Awakened, we will finish it within two months.”

“Two months, what do you all think?”

Then the other people who were sitting with me answered one by one.

“That would be fine. I will apply for ten people as B-class.”

“I’m applying for 30 people with a C level.”

“Then there must be people to do chores, so I will apply for 100 people as D-class.”

Jo Won-young smiled brightly and bowed her head slightly towards them.

“Thank you for your active cooperation. Then I will send three A-class people.”

Ji Chang-gi jumped up from his seat and bowed his head to each and every one of them.

“I will never let you down.”

“You will have to. We are patient, but we are not without limits.”

“I will keep that in mind.”

“By the way, did you finish the giant castle properly?”

Ji Chang-ki nodded her head once with a heavy expression on Jo Won-young's question.

"Yeah. We have taken over all the realms of the giant.”

And because of that, there was a war with other organizations.

In the end, Ji Chang-ki had no choice but to ask Cho Won-young for help. I wanted to do it myself somehow, but that was impossible.

The dark streets of Seoul were divided into five parts. With the exception of Taesan and Geoseong, three places attacked at the same time, so there was no ingenuity to survive.

If it had been before the war with the giant castle, it would have been solved somehow, but no, it could have been solved even if the war with the giant castle was this long and the damage was not serious, but it was impossible in the current state.

‘No, if I had only obtained the huge amount of money the giant was holding, this would not have happened.’

Ji Chang-gi was almost going to grind his teeth. But not now. He swallowed the rising emotion.

‘It would be fine if I just found the money for those bastards.’

Geoseong was the richest organization among the five organizations. It was just what it appeared to be, but considering that there was much more hidden than that, he probably had more money than he could have imagined.

It would have been nice to know how the money was pulled, but in the end I couldn't figure it out.

At the last moment, the ridicule made by Joo Myung-woo, the boss of the giant castle, has not been erased from his mind.

Thinking about it, my teeth broke again.

“Oh, CEO Ji. This time, after I clean up the small bowls…”

"Yeah. Please tell me.”

Ji Chang-gi quickly regained his emotions and looked at Jo Won-young.

The fact that he was also included in the small bowl he talked about was very annoying, but now he had no choice but to accept it calmly.

“I need to help you with one simple thing. Are you fine?"

"of course. Just speak. What is it?”

“It’s nothing. We're trying to add some manpower."

“You mean manpower reinforcement?”

"okay. There are some good kids, so I wanted to put a little more effort into recruiting them.”

Ji Chang-gi made a puzzled expression.

Even if you don't know who you want, if you get an offer from the Jeyoung group, there are probably very few Awakened people who will turn down.

Is that all? So did the others here.

Everyone was in charge of a large corporation or a giant guild.

“It’s not that I’m going to eat it all by myself, I just want to share it with the people here.”

“Who are you trying to recruit?”

“Why are there such hot awakenings these days?”

For a moment, Ji Chang-gi looked blankly at Jo Won-young. But he quickly corrected his expression.

“Wow, are you talking about Hwang Soo-young?”

Jo Won-young waved her hand.

“Ah, if I want even Hwang Soo-young, I’m overdoing it because of greed. Well, it would be better to get it.”

So, it's clear who you want.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

He wants everything but Hwang Soo-young. All of her beautiful women she hunted with her.

"What do you think? Is it possible?”

“I will try.”

I couldn't give you a definite answer. They were all quite talented. And if you use your power recklessly, you could get a headwind.

'So you're going to hand it over to me. These bastards are really...

Jo Won-young shook her head.

“You have to work hard and get results. Everyone works hard, right? The important thing is to do well and get good results. is not it?"

"Yes. Yes. However······."

“I already knew enough to know. Don’t worry, CEO Ji can handle it well enough.”

"Yes?"

“It turned out that they all belonged to the same guild.”

“You mean you belonged to Dungeon Breaker?”

“No, Guardians.”

“If it’s a Guardian…”

“You know how many guilds A-Market sponsors? one of them After all, those bastards are fast. So it's going to be a win-win."

Ji Chang-gi seemed to be able to understand without even having to listen to the next words.

“Let’s organize some guilds related to A-Market. It seems like the time has come to drive them out of our country.”

“You mean to drive out the A-Market? Then the backlash won't be too strong, will it?"

A-Market was more than just a retailer. It was a super armor that held dungeon-related items in one hand.

Moreover, it maintained close ties with the government.

If they were to withdraw from Korea, the Korean awakened people would not be able to stand still.

“We do that for ourselves.”

Jo Won-young said so and glanced at the foreigner sitting to one side.

“So, CEO Ji just does what he tells him to do. can you do it, can't you? Just say that.”

Jo Won-young said so and threw away a few papers.

It was a document that summarized all information about the guild sponsored by A-Market.

Ji Chang-gi confirmed this and said confidently.

“Of course you can.”

“There, the Guardians, please pay special attention. All the kids there have to come to us.”

"Yes. Okay."

After that, a small conversation followed.

Ha-jin Kang, who was listening to all the conversations outside, turned cold.

Through the conversation that followed, I was able to figure out the identities of all those inside.

‘Are you already trying to beat the A-market?’

In fact, it happened before the return. But it wasn't like this.

Ha-jin Kang somehow seemed to know the identity of the foreigner in there.

‘Is the DM already moving?’

Much faster than expected. But where's the speed?

Hajin Kang calmed his mind and concentrated on their conversation again.

I had to get as much information as I could at any point.

‘I don’t know how well Myung In-hyuk hid our information.’

Ha-jin Kang quietly left when women started pouring in from the inside and a huge drinking party began to take place.
