Chapter 195 – Kang Seong-Gi, the Strongest Man in Korea (16)
Of course, not everything was hopeful.
I remembered Baek Sung-hoon’s expression as he left the meeting room.
And the three S-class hunters who followed him…
“How will it come out?”
Kim Seul-bi said the same thing, perhaps worried about the same thing.
“What can they do? Even if it was, they would hit us.”
Eunbi Kim frowned.
She came to the meeting for the first time today, and it was clear that Baek Seong-hoon and his gang had a bad impression.
Rather than welcome newcomers, they tried to push them away, such as not participating in the vote.
What Eunbi Kim said was not very wrong.
If you fight, you won’t lose.
It’s because the number and skills of S-class hunters, including me, are ahead of me.
Besides, we weren’t alone.
Kang A-jin, Valentina, Louisa, Chichi and Titi, and even Seo Na-yeon can join.
‘I’m sure you’ll have no choice but to be careful.’
The other side must be aware that their opponents are not easy going.
What number to write
The problem was that.

After sending Seulbi Kim and her party back, I returned to my hotel room.
I was thinking that I should take a break because I was tired all the time, but I got a call from the desk.
– There is a guest who came to see Hunter.
The fact that I am an S-class hunter should have already been known from the hotel side.
“Who are you?”
– Hunter Kang Dong-kwon has come. She asked me to tell her she was waiting at the bar.
Kang Dong-kwon…
Of course I knew him.
It was Hunter who blatantly sided with Baek Sung-hoon at the meeting today.
Why did he come to me, I naturally frowned.
At least it was difficult to see that he had come to fight.
I was curious as to what he was talking about, so I decided to meet him.
“All right. Thank you.”
I left the hotel room and went up to the bar on the top floor.
I didn’t think that far before staying here, but the bar here was pretty fancy.
The night view made of glass was also wonderful, and I could see that it was a place where many efforts were put into it.
“Hello.”
When the elevator door opened, an employee nearby greeted me.
He saw my face and changed his posture.
He said it in a more polite manner.
“He’s waiting for you in the inner room.”
My existence was not known to the public, but in a hotel of this class, of course, the identity of an important guest would have been known among the staff.
It wasn’t a big deal for me to change my attitude right away when I saw my face.
I followed the directions of the staff.
Kang Dong-kwon, whom I had seen during the day in a large room, was already waiting for the table with splendid drinks and snacks.
When I appeared, I got up from my seat with a smile on my face.
“Hey, are you here?”
Kang Dong-kwon gave the impression that he would use it without breaking his strength because of his large size, but other than that, he lacked the aura of an S-class hunter.
Rather, he gave the impression of a businessman who mainly made money through illegal activities.
I sat across from him.
“Why did you ask to see me?”
“What is so urgent? In fact, I wanted to arrange a place like this right away, but I couldn’t because of the situation. Please understand.”
“Do you have any understanding? I just think it’s a bit surprising.”
It’s not like he was the one who so openly sided with Baek Sung-hoon at the meeting, so I couldn’t figure out why he came to me.
I drank the drink he poured into my glass.
You may doubt it, but in the first place, I was a body that did not work with poison.
In terms of resistance to poison alone, it was superior to Chichi.
If anything, my body would react and figure it out.
No poison that exists in the world right now can do anything to me.
Of course, I don’t know what it would be like if it was deliberately made like the drug Park Hye-na was addicted to, but to be sure, I developed resistance to the same drug as her while treating her.
A similar kind of medicine never hurt me.
“Isn’t that what politics is all about? Sometimes you have to act that way even though you don’t really mean it. Seonggi-san doesn’t know yet.”
I’m intrigued.
Of course, Kang Dong-kwon was a person I didn’t like at all, but why did he come to me at this timing?
To put it mildly, he was an important force on Baek Sung-hoon’s side.
Four S-class hunters centering on him, Baek Sung-hun.
The interests they gained after settling down in the Republic of Korea would have been considerable.
I was curious about those things.
He was a different type of hunter from Seulbi Kim, Hyena Park, Hyeonjun Park, Hyeoncheol Kim, and Nayeon Seo.
Except for Kang Dong-kwon, who was now in front of me, I thought the other two Hunters would be the same.
In order for me to stand at the top of the Hunter world, I needed to know all of these things.
Either to break it or to occupy it.
“It would be nice if you wouldn’t excuse me, but can I ask you something?”
“I see.”
Kang Dong-gwon looked at me with grim eyes and asked.
“How did you do it? Seulbi Kim, Nayeon Seo, and today, even Hyena Park. How did you win their hearts?”
He had a face that would make him die of curiosity.
Unlike the other hunters I’ve experienced before, he didn’t seem like a person with a strong sexual desire.
Really just seemed curious.
It’s not because I’m close to all the S-class female hunters in Korea.
Moreover, the same was true of the two new female hunters.
From Kang Dong-kwon’s point of view, it could be seen that he won by voting with Baek Sung-hoon with the ability to steal a woman’s heart.
The reality is that too.
“I don’t know either.”
I just replied and smiled.
There is, of course, no obligation to tell the truth.
Kang Dong-kwon also laughed as if he hadn’t expected it.
“Anyway, this is a great ability. Half of the world is women, so that ability will be a huge asset to Hunter. That’s why.”
Kang Dong-kwon finally began to reveal her true feelings.
“Actually, I don’t like Baek Sung-hoon. He’s like a tattoo on his head and appeared. Like scorpions and snakes, they are full of selfishness.”
She personally thought that Kang Dong-kwon was more than selfish.
At least Baek Seong-hoon is showing his ambitions, but Kang Dong-kwon seemed like a character with several serpents inside.
Anyway, Kang Dong-kwon, who spoke secretly, spoke.
“But I can’t help it. Because those guys are fast in their teeth.”
“What are you talking about?”
“It’s not really a secret now, so I’ll be honest. Real estate.”
I remembered what Seo Na-yeon said while pointing her finger at Kang Dong-gwon at the meeting today.
Real estate.
Certainly, because of that interest, Kang Dong-kwon seemed attached to Baek Sung-hoon.
What real estate are you talking about?
Although I wasn’t versed in the economic benefits of being an S-class hunter, simply thinking about it, real estate didn’t seem to be a big problem.
Billions and tens of billions of dollars are made just to play well with equipment and weapons.
In addition, that amount of money will come in when raiding S-class dungeons.
It was clear that high-quality information would come to S-class hunters through any real estate agent.
If you want to make money that way, you can make it.
However, what Kang Dong-kwon was interested in seemed like a different story.
What is the real estate interest that can only be obtained through Baek Sung-hoon?
“Real estate?”
When I asked with a blank face, Kang Dong-kwon laughed out loud.
“As expected, our Hunter is still naive. I understand. You’ve just become an S-rank Hunter, so you may be murky with information. Am I saying this about trivial land or buildings?”
Kang Dong-kwon’s eyes flashed.
“The dungeon.”
“A dungeon?”
“There is a worldwide movement to privatize dungeons. In the past, dungeons were like cursed land. Who would have wanted to go to a dangerous place with monsters? The owners of the land became beggars overnight. At that time, most countries came forward and bought the land at a bargain price. The purpose is to rescue the land owners, but it is also because the government needs to manage the dungeon for the safety of the people.”
It was a story I didn’t know.
I listened carefully to Kang Dong-kwon’s story because I was more interested than I expected.
“But now the world has changed. Is there any real estate more valuable than a dungeon right now? If you can privatize dungeons and own them, that’s getting richer on top of the rich. From now on, the world will be occupied by those who own dungeons. Fame and power are all meaningless in front of money. Don’t you think so?”
Dong-gwon Kang filled his glass and mine with alcohol and held them out.
He didn’t exactly agree, but he clinked glasses with him anyway and gulped down.
“It takes several things to make this work. You need strategy as well as capital. The government is reluctant to privatize dungeons. Of course not. There is no reason to give it to an individual when it is a huge benefit to have.”
“Then…”
“Because it is S-class, there are possible strategies.”
Kang Dong-kwon said that and smiled.
