Return To Level Up

“Oh, you’re making our position too difficult.”

“Hey, what’s wrong with entering? To be honest, the management office should be able to get us out and clean up the dungeon quickly. Isn't it?"

The management office staff broke into a cold sweat.

“Still, there is such a thing, isn’t it? To be honest, if other guilds are concerned about fairness, we get really in trouble.”

Hwang Soo-jung laughed bitterly.

“If you want to be fair, they tell me to close the dungeons and get the next dungeon.”

“No, they don’t do it because they want to.”

At that time, Yoon Kyung-min, who had been watching from the side, came forward.

“I think that equity is something we should consider rather...”

The face of the management office staff was slightly distorted. Hwang Soo-young is so famous that she can't do anything about it, but she was very annoyed when she believed in her power and even went out of her way.

“Did you say you came from the Guardians Guild?”

"Yeah. We also came to get a dungeon assignment.”

“I’m not there, so just go today.”

“I have been researching everything. And now we have to clear the dungeon quickly.”

“What do you know? After allocating a dungeon to Dungeon Breaker today, there are no dungeons left, so please go back.”

“I know that there are a lot of dungeons that other guilds just accept and leave unattended, aren’t you going to deal with them quickly?”

“How do I get that out!”

Those who were doing that were large corporations and giant guilds. The management office staff didn't want to play with them.

“Then is the management office responsible for all that happens if we leave it alone?”

"What?"

The management staff were furious. However, Yoon Kyung-min continued speaking without moving an eyebrow.

“From now on, I have to take responsibility, so I will proceed with the recording. Do you agree?”

"Do not be ridiculous! Who would agree with that!”

“Then I will send an official notice from the Guardian and release it to the press. Would that be okay?”

"What? Are you going to try it with our Awakening Administration right now?”

Yoon Kyung-min was still cold and calm.

“I'm not trying to do it, I'm giving it a chance. No matter what happens in the future, I want to leave evidence that the administration did its best.”

Having said this up to this point, I was nervous and anxious at the same time.

Wasn't there a riot just a while ago? So the policy was changed to close the dungeon quickly.

However, a large corporation and a large guild were doing the same thing as before because they said they couldn't give me my habit.

He was allotted a lot of dungeons that he couldn't even eat and started to stock up.

Not as much as before, but naturally neglected dungeons were emerging.

It's been just over a month since the disaster happened.

“No, I want to do it, but I can’t do it? Really, why are you doing this? I'll get the dungeons to the Guardians somehow sooner or later, so please go back today. Please do this.”

The management staff took a step back. It was only his own loss if he had to stand up here.

However, Yoon Kyung-min did not back down.

“I am not saying that the Guardian should take care of it. Among other small and medium-sized guilds, there are several places where they only suck their fingers. The problem is that the quota itself is different in the first place.”

“That’s because the size of the guild and the number of Awakeneds we have are different, so we can’t help it…”

"no. Management needs to be more thorough. What if those dungeons explode all at once, or if a dangerous dungeon appears there that is hard to care about?

The management staff wept.

“No, because I don't have the authority to coordinate it. It's your responsibility. The guild that took the dungeon will lose."

“We will not escape our responsibility for over-allocating. I think I've heard rumors that the head of the administration will enter politics in the next year or so... it's probably going to be very fatal."

The management office staff was startled by the remark.

To be honest, this is the first time I've heard of a director entering the political world.

But if that's true, it's an issue that shouldn't be overlooked.

“Uh… I will report directly to the Commissioner. So, for today, only..."

Yoon Kyung-min left only then. That was the purpose in the first place.

The head of the administration was closely connected with large corporations and large guilds. So it won't move easily.

So I opted for the method of shaking the bottom.

The management office will probably be noisy for a while. Today is already the fifth time that Kyung-Min Yoon has come to talk to me like this, and this is the fifth employee.

* * *

Ha-jin Kang returned to the guild headquarters and took a break to check the next hunting schedule.

“For now... the guild itself has no hunting plans.”

In other words, he did not secure the dungeon.

I knew very well why this was happening. In fact, something similar happened before the return.

This was the tyranny of the giant guild.

Before the return, the first disaster did not pass as easily as this one.

Still, it happened, and I didn't think it was going to go away this time.

It was impossible to hunt legally, so it had no choice but to pass illegally.

Anyway, you have to close as many dungeons as possible, and you have to hunt and level up. And you have to collect the monster's by-products and manastones as much as possible.

He had no intention of making a lot of money through hunting. Anyway, sooner or later, the money problem will be completely solved.

He will make and sell excellent equipment, and he will also make and sell various potions. Moreover, they have no idea how much money they will make if they start a subspace business.

The reason why monster by-products and manastones are needed is to make better equipment.

Yoo Dong-hoon clearly had the ability to do that.

Anyway, you need a dungeon to do that.

Illegal dungeons were not reported by the discoverer, and there were dungeons that were obtained through the black market.

There are other things, but broadly speaking, they were two things.

The Guardian's approach was both.

Most of the members of the guild had a history of working in the black market, so it was easier to find something in the black market or submit a request than I thought.

Unregistered dungeons were found by Inhyuk Myung. Rather than moving the information team to find the dungeon itself, it was like finding an individual with an unregistered dungeon and making a deal.

And among the dungeons owned by large guilds or large corporations, they also identified and made a list of neglected management. So that you can hunt whenever you want.

I checked all the dungeons where I could hunt illegally. There were quite a few, some of which were currently hunting.

Since Ha-jin Kang hardly interferes with the operation of the guild, most of the time, Kyung-min Yoon was concerned about the direction of operation or the future of the guild.

In fact, although Ha-jin Kang is the guild master, it was Yoon Kyung-min who acted like the real guild master.

And that was what Hajin Kang wanted.

According to Kang Ha-jin's instructions, Yoon Kyung-min has been concentrating on increasing the size of the guild recently.

To do the job properly, he has to withstand the checks of huge guilds and conglomerates.

But Kang Ha-jin didn't worry too much. Won't Kyung-Min Un know how to do it all?

What Hajin Kang was worried about was the real dungeon that would appear from now on.

As I sat down and checked the documents, the secretary knocked in and came in.

“I, Master. A guest has arrived.”

"customer?"

"Yes. It's the maximum length. What should I do?"

Hajin Kang tilted his head.

'Maximum? Who is it?'

was someone I didn't know. But somehow it felt like we had to meet.

“I’m asking you to come in.”

"Yeah."

The secretary went out and came back with a man.

As soon as Choi Dae-gil saw Ha-jin Kang, he walked briskly and held out his hand.

“It’s the best way. I finally met a celebrity I had only heard of by name. nice to meet you."

At the words of Choi Dae-gil, Kang Ha-jin made a strange expression and held his hand.

“This is Hajin Kang.”

The two sat on the sofa with a table between them. After that, he didn't say a word until the secretary left the car.

There was silence for a moment. Hajin Kang was the first to break it.

“I didn't know there were people calling me a celebrity. Have you come to know the wrong person? or the same person.”

Max-gil shook his head.

“It came exactly. I also have my own ears. A lot of people ask me things I don’t want to know.”

Kang Ha-jin didn't answer, but looked at Choi Dae-gil.

The easiest and fastest way to recognize someone is, of course, a peek.

First of all, it was not an Awakened because the stats window did not appear. So it's not even clear if the name of Dae-Gil is real.

On the other hand, he was wearing a lot of items imbued with magical powers on his body. It was a special piece of equipment that was effective enough for ordinary people to wear.

'Once those rings.'

I wore five rings, and all of them had quite thick mana stones.

All necklaces and bracelets were equipped with magic stones.

‘Vest, belt, and even shoes.’

I checked the equipment one by one, and all of them were not normal equipment.

For example, if you look at the bracelet,

[Fire Dragon's Scale]

[Rare - Rare]

[A bracelet made by processing five scales of a fire dragon. Blocks 5 attacks with a shield of fire. Attacks that exceed the shield's defense are blocked by adding the number of times.]

It was like this.

The equipment is probably one of the reasons why Maxgil is not an Awakener and is so dignified.

There are not many people in our country who can get such a lot of stuff like that.

Can it be saved only by the head of a large guild or a large corporation?

'if not······.'

Hajin Kang's eyes lit up. He looked up the road with a sharp gaze that seemed to pierce his opponent.

There was another person who could obtain such equipment without being a huge guild or chaebol.

‘Who was the owner of the black market?’

Hajin Kang traced his memories before his return. The memories, which were faint at first, gradually became clearer.

The Korean black market collapses as soon as DM enters the market.

No, more precisely, it is absorbed by DM. Even before DM entered Korea, they continued to work on it and absorbed it in time.

The black market has been absorbed rather cooperatively. It was more of a voluntary absorption than a hostile merger.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

Thanks to that, I was able to properly occupy a place in DM Korea.

‘Was the person who passed the black market at that time the best choice?’

Kang Ha-jin looked at Choi Dae-gil and asked.

“Black market?” Max's eyes lit up.

“Hey. The Guardian Master also seems to have a lot of ears. To be honest, not many people know who I am.”

Kang Ha-jin looked at Choi Dae-gil with deep sunken eyes.

“Are you the owner of the black market?”

"Yes. I am in charge of the Korean black market. Well, in fact, the real owners of the black market are the merchants who make up the black market and the awakeners who protect them. I am just managing it.”

Hajin Kang smirked.

“By the way, you seem to know a lot about me.”

“I have been watching since the war between Geoseong and Taesan. No, should I say a little before that?”

Choi Dae-gil looked at Kang Ha-jin with meaningful eyes for a moment before continuing.

“It was great. It seems that he dragged the giant castle and Taesan down into the mud, absorbed all the money from the giant castle, and later intervened in the fights of other organizations.”

And again, he said, with his eyes shining as if he had remembered something.

“Ah, and all the heroes of this disaster are from the Guardians. Do you have any secrets to raising Awakeneds? I thought for a moment.”

Hajin Kang nodded his head.

“It was roughly enough. You seem to know more, but you don't have to talk about it, let's talk about the matter first."

“There are people who come into contact with the black market these days.”

“It is not uncommon for people with bad intentions to come into contact with the black market. To be honest, so did we.”

“It's not that simple this time around. It seems they are trying to contain the A-market using us. There are a lot of other bad intentions mixed in.”

Hearing those words, it was immediately clear who were trying to contact the black market.

“So you came to me? Are you going to have a fight with them?”

Max Lil smiled and waved his hand.

“Ah, it’s not like that. you're putting up a fight I just thought that Ha-jin Kang would be the most reliable card to move the A-market.”

Hajin Kang tilted his head.

“But, shouldn’t we have to play around with their intentions? I know that the black market and the A-market have never touched each other's territory until now... but didn't they?"

Max nodded his head.

"Yes. Actually, you don't have to fight. At least I think so.”

Kang Ha-jin looked at Choi Dae-gil. Choi Dae-gil paused for a moment before continuing.

“I am not the only owner of our black market. He has one cousin, Choi Sun-ho, and he didn't know how to grab their hands.”

The eyes of Choi Dae-gil, who had spoken so far, shone so intensely that it could not be compared with before. It was an obvious living.

“It’s a secret from me.”

Choi Dae-gil looked at Kang Ha-jin with blazing eyes. Now it was Kang Ha-jin's turn.
