The association’s response was quick and excellent.

Lee Ji-ah’s claim that she had been retaliated against for having bumped into the president of the association in the past.

Because I turned it into a simple illusion.

However, that is only when there is no evidence.

“Isn’t that a familiar voice?”

The bewildered face of the headmaster comes into view. The attitude that had just pretended to be relaxed has disappeared. He looks at the recorder with rabbit eyes, whether he has the spirit to act.

“Twenty-six years old, full of blood. Without being able to distinguish between the two sides, I stretched out so much that I immediately went to the head of the association to argue.”

said with a smile.

“Did you see that?”

“What… ?”

“The president of the association as well, why are you ignoring me at this age?”

The headmaster’s face turns white.

“Maybe I’m intentionally trying to pick a recording… !”

If it wasn’t for that reason, what would you have gone to and declared war on? Are you going to do it anyway? I wet my lips with coffee.

“What did you say earlier?”

After seeing the association’s statement, people’s opinions began to diverge little by little.

I’m sure you said that.

Now the story has changed.

The association has already countered that Lee Ji-ah’s assertion was wrong in a statement.

This recording was evidence that completely denied it.

Until recently, if the association was at a level that could be dealt with.

It’s a little different now.

The general manager said with a pale expression on his face.

“Kim Hyun-woo, you, you bastard… Since I was holding this from the beginning, why… Why didn’t you solve it?”

“A transcript?”

“Is there more than that?! If I had posted it on social media, I wouldn’t have flattened you the way you wanted!”

They say life is timing.

Waiting for the association to issue a statement was not because of the expectation that he would admit his mistake right away and bow his head.

I wouldn’t have done it if I thought I’d admit it right away.

If the transcript had been opened from the beginning, as the general manager said, the matter would have been resolved without any hassle.

Still, I hid the transcript until the very end, and only now bring it out… … .

“Because it’s more effective.”

“… What?”

“That’s right. It’s probably the association’s side pretending not to know about the retaliation administration.”

said in a hoarse voice.

“After confirming that, you have to blow it up, and you will take a bigger hit. is not it?”

The headmaster’s eyes tremble slightly.

“… … Hyunwoo Kim, you didn’t have any intention of negotiating from the beginning. Passing the guild screening was not the purpose.”

From the moment this case became public, everything I wanted was already available. The association has no choice but to pass the examination even if it shows a keen eye.

If it was normal, I would probably have been satisfied with that and left.

The first day I went to the general manager.

He shows the recording on the spot, threatens to post it on social media, receives the result, and leaves.

That suited my taste.

Trying to end a fight with someone just because I had a fight doesn’t suit me.

Perhaps that is the crucial difference between Han Ye-rim and me.

You can’t force your opponent to be cruel.

He threatened a reporter who was trying to play with Han Yoo-jung, but he did not dare to publicize it.

It was the same with Taesan Guild Manager.

In the second test, Han Yoo-jung was satisfied with competing under fair conditions.

In the process, the Taesan guild manager got into a lot of trouble, but he didn’t try to put an end to all the secrets of illegal lobbying.

When Han Yoo-jung handed me the assassination list.

If we had released the information to the media without caring about her well-being, the president of the association could have been sent to prison.

But it wasn’t.

This is because everything that has been discussed so far is just a fight that has no choice but to fight.

To keep my incompetent hunters safe from the outside unless it’s a dungeon.

A 26-year-old new manager is just a rookie from the bottom up.

However, watching Lee Ji-ah drooping all the way to the end, the judgement was slightly twisted.

“That’s what I really don’t understand.”

He said, scratching his head violently.

“Why do you keep using Jia to the end first and then you can’t eat it all the time, this is it.”

What if I was Lee Ji-ah?

Just thinking about it makes a fire inside me.

They made them into heroes because they needed them at will.

It is an opportunity that is usually difficult to obtain, and it is something to be grateful for.

However, the association neglected to take care of Lee Ji-ah by prioritizing the project, even though it was clear that she had a mental abnormality.

Then, he tried to put all the responsibility for the attack failure on Lee Ji-ah. Had it not been for me, it would have ended in a tragic suicide.

The case is all over and I’m about to start anew, but this time, Ji-eul stumbles on Lee Ji-ah as if she’s the victim.

What’s wrong with the alternative association here?

“Oh my gosh, it’s ridiculous. The victim and the perpetrator have to change as much as possible. Isn’t it?”

If you endure it even after coming all the way here, it’s not rational, it’s a hogu. I have no desire to become like that.

Thinking of Lee Ji-ah, I can’t even do that.

“This bastard——!!”

The general manager, who had been silently listening, got up and banged the desk! hit it The eyes around you are focused. The general manager, who was shaking his chin, sat down again.

He snorts with excitement, and his ass shakes as if he’s grabbing my neck at any moment.

I’d rather run and catch him. Heartily.

The general manager, who had cooled off by swearing for a while, calmly brought up the story again.

“… … hand over the recording. Let’s make it all nonsense. In the future, the association will not interfere with Lee Ji-ah in any way.”

“It’s really exciting.”

He clenched his chin and took a deep breath.

– Last but not least, reach out your hand. It’s a chance that really came by chance. Pretend you’re taking care of the script you haven’t prepared yet, approach Miss Jia and tell her. Let’s give up this fight. Won’t you listen to your words?

-Call reporter Cho right now and ask for a correction report!

– So. I can’t take time for the interview because of the twisted schedule, and I can’t get out of this article… It must be postponed until

“I don’t know why everyone comes last and says things like that. Just do it right from the start.”

At first, they fight like they’re going to kill each other. for their own benefit. And in the end, it is the law that separates winners and losers.

Then the loser always offers last.

Let’s go back to what didn’t happen. It’s only when you get to the end that you say something like that.

“Aren’t you cowardly? The yangbans, who thought I could do nothing, came to a fight, and crushed them like trash on the side of the road… I didn’t get the results I wanted, so I went there and reached out later.”

He raised his lips and said.

“It’s very dirty and ugly. I was just trying to fight to win.”

The headmaster’s eyebrows twitch. He wiggles his mouth like it’s stuffy, but in the end he can’t get it out and closes it.

It seems that the recorder is still concerned.

That’s why people have to live honestly. look at me Even if you say everything you want to, there’s nothing you can do.

“That’s what the general manager said. The president of the association said the same thing.”

“What… ?”

“At the end of the day, he reached out and held out his hand. Let’s settle this without a hearing. What do you think I said?”

The general manager looks at me without saying a word.

“Let’s go all the way to the end. What more could you lose here? We don’t even have a guild yet, but we have to get down to the real battle.”

After all, the protest had been put on hold for a long time.

The fired arrow stops when it hits the destination.

This was just my anger by standing up and beating the scarecrow.

“I’m done with everything I have to say, so let’s talk with our representative later. I advise you in advance, if you’re more insidious than me, you’re insidious and not less so, so don’t try to deceive me. There is no one to be deceived.”

He patted Lee Ji-ah on the shoulder and stood up. We were about to leave the cafe together, but the general manager suddenly asked.

“Kim Hyun-woo, aren’t you afraid of the association’s retaliation?”

really sloppy.

I scratched my head and looked back.

The general manager was looking at me with resigned eyes.

“I’m asking because I’m curious. I knew I couldn’t convince myself with words here.”

If you said you weren’t worried, that would be ridiculous.

“I want to avoid it if I can.”

“Then negotiate… … .”

“By the way.”

Experiences so far run through my mind.

“Just because I don’t want to fight doesn’t mean I don’t hit him. Where would we have started as a guild if we hadn’t taken this issue out on social media?”

He was probably still waiting while sucking on his finger or side. At least I took the first step by fighting and winning.

“Even if we negotiate this time and end it amicably. You’re not going to look good on us.”

It was almost obvious just by looking at what he had been stumbling and falling over so far.

“If that’s the case, I mean. Rather than sitting still and getting hit, we should punch together. At least not to be embarrassed.”

The general manager leaned against the table and wiped his face. There seems to be nothing more to say. I headed to the parking lot with Lee Ji-ah.

She followed me somewhere with a gloomy face.

“What are you doing?”

“yes?”

“It bruises people as if they were possessed by something.”

“No, I just want to always get help from Hyeonu. I’m the same age, but I also want to do something… … .”

What did you think of doing that?

said with a shiver.

“That’s fortunate. I was paid so much that I wondered what if Jia thought of me as a thief.”

“yes?”

Lee Ji-ah claps her hand.

“I never thought of that! Would you rather extend the contract period?”

“That’s what I… .”

10 years is long enough.

It warms my heart to see Lee Ji-ah kicking her tongue as if it’s sad.

I thought you really need me.

“Mr. Jia.”

“yes?”

“There is no need to be disheartened by this. Hunter, the hunter has a job, and manager, the manager has a job. If everything goes well, then Jia will be a superhuman, right?”

Hunters only need to fulfill their role in the dungeon. Outside work, the manager takes care of it.

There is absolutely no need to envy anyone when they perform on different stages.

Even if Lee Ji-ah can’t be like me, Lee Ji-ah is Lee Ji-ah.

Lee Ji-ah, who was looking for something to say, smiled round and round.

“Hyunwoo, do you know that?”

“what?”

“When I was fighting with the general manager earlier.”

“yes.”

“You kept calling me Jia.”

Swag!

I accidentally dropped my car key. Picking up the car key that had fallen on the floor, he squeezed a dry smile, ahaha.

“I do not know. I can’t remember at all. Did I?”

“You really aren’t?”

“Yeah, I can’t stop talking to Jia.”

I don’t usually talk to friends I meet in society.

He was also my employer.

“Ah, you spoke nonsense during the hearing.”

“Why are you taking it out again?”

I thought I forgot… .

He blushed and shoved the key into the keyhole. keeps brushing off Damn, why didn’t this go in like this?

While wrestling with the hole for a while, Lee Ji-ah suddenly takes her phone out of my pocket.

“Jia?”

“I suddenly remembered.”

I asked, pressing down on my anxious inner heart.

“… What?”

“It seems like Hyunwoo must have recorded the conversation earlier. Right?”

Oh My God. My face reflected in the window looks like someone who has seen a ghost. Frustrated, she stretched out her arms, but Lee Ji-ah smiled and stepped back.

“Give me your phone back!”

“Hyun-woo, what’s your password?”

“Are you going to tell me? Give it to me quickly!”

“Give me your password!”
