NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 124 - S-Class Hunter (2)
The story that Park Yoo-min brought out was none other than the one at the National Assembly hearing.
Controversy over special treatment for S-class Hunters.
And the actions Lee Tae-bum took about it.
Park Yoo-min briefly told Seo-jun about what had happened before.
“Ah… then what will happen?”
To Seo-joon's question that followed, Park Yoo-min answered with a slight wave of his hand, as if telling him not to worry.
“There is strong resistance, but the president of the association is pushing it strongly. You probably have nothing to worry about.”
In a word, it means that Seo-joon's receiving the S-class hunter's license will not change.
“By the way... Official approval will be delayed a bit. The president of the association is strongly promoting it, but as I said, the backlash is not insignificant... Besides, it's something unprecedented...”
Park Yoo-min made a sorry expression and continued.
“You don’t have time to deal with those things. That's why I came here to convey the situation to Hunter Kim Seo-joon instead.”
“I see…”
After hearing all of this, Seojun nodded slowly.
To put it simply, it was saying that the S-class hunter was confirmed, but the processing was likely to be delayed.
That kind of thing doesn't matter much to Seo-joon.
Well, there were various tax benefits, but to be honest, the S-class hunter was an additional item.
Two things were important to Seo-joon when dealing with the Draug Dungeon.
One was the progress of Shakyamuni's lecture.
second is.
“Then the promised money…?”
promised 30 billion.
At Seo-joon's words, Park Yoo-min momentarily trembled.
It was because the image of Seo-joon bursting with creepy energy related to money just now came to mind.
Park Yoo-min hurriedly spoke out.
“Bar, as I said just now, the payment has already been processed! As soon as today. It will be deposited by tomorrow at the latest!”
“That’s it. haha!”
It was only then that Seojun was able to nod his head very satisfied.
They don't care about the S-class hunter's license, and run as if they're going to kill 30 billion yen...
Park Yoo-min laughed dejectedly.
Even if he grabs anyone and asks, 30 billion won and an S-class hunter license.
It was because if I had to choose between the two, out of 100, all 100 would choose the S-class Hunter license.
The S-class Hunter license was worth it.
Literally the pinnacle of the pro hunter world.
Its reputation and position did not dare to be judged by money.
In the first place, money had no value to S-class hunters.
“Aren’t you… paying taxes or something like that?”
However, Seo-joon was showing the opposite situation.
That's why, in a way, it was Seo-joon who looked like a snob.
“Please. What kind of money is that?”
However, Park Yoo-min couldn't feel that kind of sign at all.
I don't know why, but I didn't feel any greed from Seojun.
Obsessed with money, but money itself is not the purpose.
An attitude to treat as a means thoroughly as one.
And it's not so important to the things that really matter.
Just looking at the Draug Dungeon incident, it was like that.
Who in the world would take over the Draug Dungeon for 30 billion won?
Although 30 billion was a lot of money, it was useless compared to the cost of an S-class hunter's life.
However, Seo-jun took the lead by example and finally did it.
It's a little different from the heroes of cataclysm, but it feels like it's in the same context somewhere.
Isn't this kind of Seo-joon the way we pro hunters should truly walk?
Park Yoo-min suddenly had an idea.
“The president of the association said he would see you again soon.”
At the end of Park Yoo-min's words, Seo-joon nodded slowly.
Then I turned my back and entered the Dream Team building.
Park Yoo-min stared blankly at Seo-joon’s back.
Currently, the professional hunter world in Korea is sick.
A society created by a giant cartel called the 5 guilds that ruled for decades.
It was now spreading not only to the professional hunter world, but also to the entire Korean society.
I could tell just by looking at today's parliamentary hearing.
They were rotting not only the professional hunter world, but the entire Korean society.
Lee Tae-beom took the lead in fighting to correct it, but the status quo was all that was maintained.
The only thing I could do was slow the decay.
The job of a professional hunter, which has now become a matter of course to pursue only profit.
If this is really the trend of the times, do we have no choice but to accept it?
Lee Tae-beom would often spit out these words whenever he had a drink.
Individuals cannot stand up to the flow of the times.
Even the heroes of Cataclysm could not deny it.
But why?
For some reason, Park Yoo-min seemed to be able to do it if it was Seo-joon.
It seemed that I could create a wind in the heart that I thought would not work.
Isn't this what a true S-class hunter is?
“Hunter Kim Seo-joon.”
Park Yoo-min stopped Seo-joon, who was leaving without even realizing it.
Seo-joon turned around and tilted his head.
“I don’t know if I would dare to say such a thing…”
Park Yoo-min nodded toward Seo-joon.
“On behalf of the people of Korea, I sincerely thank you.”
He lowered his head slowly.
#
The next day.
As the news of Seo-jun's attack on the Drag Dungeon spread, Korean society was literally turned upside down.
What kind of dungeon is the Draug Dungeon?
As a spirit world deadly monster, its rank alone is a whopping 10 stars.
It was a dungeon that only the hero of cataclysm, Youngseong, could solve, let alone S-class hunters.
But a newbie who just became a professional hunter took care of it?
『Kim Seo-jun. Attacking the Draug Dungeon!]
It wasn't even that the entire society was turned upside down.
『Every path he walks is a legend! Another legend!]
『Birth of the youngest S-class hunter in the shortest period of time?』
『Reign for decades. Challenge that stronghold!”
“Dream Team! What will be his next move?”
“Will Korea's 6th hero be born?”
There were even articles foreshadowing the birth of a new hero.
As the situation is like this, various communities, including Internet media morning news.
It was almost plastered with stories about Seo-joon.
But where there is light, there is darkness.
There were not only good things about Seo-joon.
『Draug Dungeon. In fact, a raid with spirituality?]
『A declaration of special treatment by the president of the association revealed at the hearing
. 』 Is he really a hero-level hunter?]
Of course, it was only a part of the opinion.
However, due to some opinions, the community was becoming a mud fight.
As a result, even the place where the mention of Seo-jun is banned is created.
In the midst of such a fierce conflict of opinions.
“oh! Did you deposit the money?”
Seriously, Seojun wasn't interested in that at all!
I am just happy that the promised 30 billion and 13 billion have been deposited.
If Park Yoo-min saw this, he would have kicked the covers all night...
Naturally, Park Yoo-min neither knew nor could know this fact.
“Let's see...”
Seo-joon checked the remaining account balance.
Currently, the total amount of money in Seo Joon's hands is 43 billion.
To be exact, there were about 43.1 billion.
“If this is the case...”
Seo-joon quickly tapped the calculator in his head.
The two lectures that Seo-joon planned to attend additionally cost 40 billion won each.
And this time, as the progress of Shakyamuni's lecture increased, the power of Gongcheong Petroleum must have been completely absorbed.
Now I had time to take another elixir.
The next karma of the transcendent shop is 15 billion.
Then 80 billion + 15 billion, Seo-joon needs a total of 95 billion.
And the money currently in Seo-joon's hands is 43 billion...
Pudeudeuk!
Suddenly, the sound of something breaking in Seo-joon's head was heard.
“no! What if you're an S-class Hunter! What do you do when your guild rank goes up! What would you do if you reduced your taxes? Everyone who earns just runs out!!”
Money that leaks inside evaporates outside the bag!
What happened was that Seo-joon
had never done anything called saving for a single day since he came across Transcendent Academy!
Of course, there was still money left to receive from Young-seong.
But the money Seo-joon needs is 95 billion won!
The 95 billion won is not the name of the dog, but it goes to Youngseong at all costs.
Youngseong-nim, please give me 95 billion won for lodging.
It can't be like this!
95 billion was the money to build a building in Gangnam!
No matter how much Seo-jun was crazy about money, there was at least one!
“No crazy!”
Isn't this too much to do!
What is more absurd than anything is that 95 billion won is not the end.
The only money needed right now is 95 billion.
You can't imagine how much more you'll need in the future!
“Is causality like this in the first place? Or is it just me?”
Seo-joon unwittingly took out his smartphone from his arms.
Then, he immediately connected to ‘Chat of Beginners'.
I set the keyword to ‘causal' and searched.
Then, related posts were listed.
.
.
< [Illusion Spirit]: You fucking causality! No matter how you collect them , there is no end to them! Something like adding causal and eating causal. >
< [Twisted Existence]: X-bars! >
< [Dark Mage]: Causal and what the hell is this bastard doing? > < [Elimination of causation]: What is causation at the transcendent academy? >
< [Twisted] Existence] : DogXGod Garbage . . Most of it was swearing. No, all the posts on the entire page were curse words. "ah... It's not just me.” Seo-joon felt that his anger, which had risen, softened in an instant. A small comfort that there are comrades like you. Seo-joon felt like his heart was being healed after a tantrum broke through the screen in the post. Seojun slowly clicked through the posts and looked at the contents. And I took a quick look at the contents. In the case of Seo-jun, it could be seen that he belonged to a really weak axis. A few months as short as to listen to one lecture he will. On average, most of the causal farming was done on a yearly basis. And the most astonishing thing Seo-joon saw was the story of a beginner who had to farm for 137 years to listen to a lecture. < [Twisted Being]: A bitch X-God Trash, I'm sorry. >
It was none other than that ‘Twisted Being', a beginner.
That was the post I wrote after blowing up in an instant that I was buying a lecture for causal farming that I had farmed without a day off for 137 years.
“......It was just twisted.”
Seojun could only nod his head involuntarily.
And the atmosphere was generally that way. Bloody curses were rampant, as if even the letter ‘in' in causation would trigger a seizure.
“If it wasn’t for the immobility, the rookies who were pissed off about causality might have destroyed several dimensions.”
It occurred to me that maybe the reason why immobility is a compulsory subject lies elsewhere.
“Whoa, but it's a little better seeing you suffer together.”
Seeing the hardships and hardships of other freshman students, the anger in my heart began to subside to some extent.
In this place, who but Seo-joon would understand this hopeless feeling.
Everyone just whispers that they are money bugs.
Even Soo-yeon was still throwing up at the bee when she heard the sound of money.
“It's sad...”
I thought that maybe other beginners also do community for these reasons.
The fact that I don't have an ID came a little regretful today.
Just when I was about to soothe my heart and close the community,
< [Clown with Mouth Stitched]: Middle★ Here's how to copy causal. ☆Yo. >
A strange post came into Seo-Jun's field of vision.
“What what? You can copy causality?”
Surprised, Seo-joon clicked on the post.
Hold on.
< The post has been deleted. >
“Huh?”
However, a notification window popped up saying that it was deleted, so it could not be viewed.
Seojun wondered what the case was.
Seo-joon went through the list of posts a little more, feeling anxious about something.
< [False of Purgatory]: Causal Copy Post. Has anyone seen it deleted? >
Sure enough, there were more beginners with the same questions as Seo-jun.
Seojun hurriedly clicked on the post.
Hold on.
“Yes, what was it?
Did the academy delete it because it was really copied?”
.
.
Seojun scrolled down to check the comments.
.
.
└[Fate Judge]: No, it was a scam. It turns out that instructor Loki was scamming the first-year students.
└[Darkness of Purgatory]: ???? It's not that the freshman cheated, but that the instructor cheated?
└ [Judge of Destiny]: During the lecture, he said he was trying to tell you that fraud is like this... The problem is that other beginners thought it was real and tried it, only to lose the cause and effect.
└[Commander Lord]: So, instead of filming the lecture, he was called by the superintendent director and was beaten up after him?
└[Darkness of Purgatory]: Crazy...
└[Chaser Chasing the Darkness]: He's just a top swindler. class is different. It's not for nothing that Instructor Hermes said that he would give up on Instructor Loki.
└[Lantern that leads to ruin]: That's why you're loki and loki...
└[Crumbling cradle]: But if the demand for causality is high, will it attract aggro? I'm honestly the one who wrote a review after using 100 transcendent equipment the other day. I wonder how did you do that.
└[The Unforgivable Sinner]: Was he a ‘2700th year virgin'? Maybe it was. It is the orthodoxy of the patrol that they checked to see if they thought it was not causal.
└[Broken Blade]: Where is that?
└[The Unforgivable Sinner]: It makes no sense otherwise. If you twist it, you're telling me to be a virgin in 2700.
└[Rubbed Blade]: That's a bit...
└[The Approaching Horror]: But he. There was a rumor that he was attacked by a succubus a while ago.
.
.
.
“...Are you insane?”
still crazy stuff.
Conversations that are still insane.
Seo-joon was dizzy.
Instructor scamming beginners.
Besides, what does it mean to say that a virgin suffered from a succubus for 2700 years?
“......”
Seojun just gave up on his thoughts.
“I'll just have to collect them honestly...”
Seojun shook his head and turned off the community.
In the end, there was no expediency in bringing cause and effect together.
What is the cause and effect of the following article, and is there an expedient?
And in the case of Seo-jun, compared to other freshmen, he was a considerable medicine major.
It occurred to me that the speculation that Seo-joon's causality was not measured last time might be correct.
In any case, the only way for Seo-joon to collect cause and effect was to continue the dungeon raid.
“Guys, when are you coming...?”
Seo-joon anxiously waited with his twinkling eyes for the team members who did not come.
And just then.
“Are you inside?”
Suddenly, someone's voice came from outside the building.
A familiar voice now.
“The president of the association?”
It was none other than Lee Tae-beom, the head of the Pro Hunter Association.
Seo-joon immediately opened the door, and sure enough, Lee Tae-bum stood there with an awkward expression.
“What are you doing here at this time… Come inside first.”
Seo-joon brought Lee Tae-bum inside.
As soon as I sat down in the right place, Lee Tae-bum asked me.
“Rather than that, Youngseong-sama…?”
“Oh, you are upstairs now. I prepared a separate room for you to be comfortable. Did you come to visit Yeongseong-nim, not me?”
Lee Tae-bum waved his hand lightly and said.
“no. I have something else to say to Hunter Kim Seo-joon, so I risked my disrespect to come here. Of course, I have to see Youngseong-nim.”
Then, with a puzzled expression on his face, he spoke.
“More than that… I’m really sorry about the S-class Hunter days. But don't worry, I'll take responsibility and finish the job.”
At Lee Tae-bum's words, this time Seo-joon waved his hand slightly as if he was okay.
“no. Yesterday, I heard all about the situation from Manager Park Yoo-min. You’re working hard, but you don’t have to worry too much about it.”
Just give me the right money.
Seojun swallowed the words behind him.
“...... thank you.”
However, Lee Tae-bum, who did not know such a situation, was very grateful to Seo-joon for understanding.
The momentary silence that followed.
“But what are you going to say to me…?”
Seo-joon opened his mouth slowly, and Lee Tae-beom paused a little and spat out his words.
“It's nothing else... Sir Calia came to see me yesterday.”
“yes? Sir Calia?”
At Lee Tae-bum's words, Seo-joon was taken aback and asked back.
“Sir Calia, why the hell…?”
“They asked me for help.”
“Any help?”
And Seo-jun could not help but be surprised by Lee Tae-bum's words that followed.
Calia was none other than the successor to the apostle of chastity.
And if you are the successor of the apostle of chastity, you are in a position just below the 7 apostles.
It was not even the head of the Jinrihoe, but it was a high position that could be said to be the highest level among the executives.
In a word, it can be said that it is a position where you can use the power of Jinrihoe.
Why did such a Jinrihoe ask for help from the head of the Korean Pro Hunter Association?
Lee Tae-bum nodded slowly as if he knew Seo-joon's question.
“Do you…do you know anything about the current situation in Europe?”
