Chapter 417 – Onmyoji Katsumi (3)

“So you were trying to do something in Korea that you couldn’t do in Japan.”
“Yes, I had no intention of causing trouble to Korea. But there was no other place to go. After being pushed and pushed, I finally came here. Sorry.”

Katsumi politely apologized to me.
I wondered if I could accept this kind of apology, but I said hello anyway.

“It’s okay if you’re against Tadanobu. Did you hear the news? It was discovered that they were trying to devour Korea. All Koreans are incensed.”
“Yes… But Tadanobu is not normal. Most of the government and maybe even the people support them. Its unity cannot be ignored. In a sense, you could say the whole country is gripped by madness. I think there will be an explosion of madness in either direction soon.”

When I was talking that far, a voice that I didn’t want to hear suddenly came out.

“That is a big deal. Anyway, it went well. Now that Wataru is dead, we cooperate now. If you help me drive out the Chinese, I will treat you well.”

Choi Mok-dong said that as a big concession, but none of us were happy with his words.

“I’ve done enough research on you.”

Katsumi said coldly.

“You are nothing but a low-quality yakuza. Moreover, your father and grandfather live in Japan and cooperate with Tadanobu. Did you know that much of the money you sent is going to Tadanobu’s donations?”
“Yeah? A donation?”

Perhaps Choi Mok-dong was unaware of this fact.

“You kicked my father and grandfather out to Japan. They are growing in power in Japan. It’s pitiful that he doesn’t know anything even though he’s of his own blood.”
“No, these old souls! You know what kind of money it is!”
“Tadanobu does not attach value to money given by Koreans. If you did, Wataru would have shown you more respect. Your father and grandfather are also playing Tadanobu. When the time comes, they will be purged to set an example.”
“Isn’t it too harsh to say that you want to hear it? You are no different from Wataru!”
“What?”

When Katsumi opened her eyes, Mok-dong Choi said, “Ouch!” I was surprised.
I wondered if he hadn’t peed.

Anyway, there was a limit to continuing a serious talk here.
First of all, there was a need to do something with Choi Mok-dong.

“Kaori, I’ll come see some work. It’s been a while since I met my brother, so let’s talk comfortably.”
“Yes, please contact me if there is anything.”
“Yes.”

Katsumi looked at me and Kaori with a happy expression.
It was the look in her sister-in-law’s eyes as she watched her sister and brother-in-law without fail.

I said to Choi Mok-dong.

“Let’s go.”
“Ah yes!”

Mokdong Choi glared at Katsumi as if he was angry, but Katsumi didn’t pay attention to her and talked to Kaori in Japanese.

As I was leaving the mansion, I saw women wearing kimonos busy with cleaning up the incinerated corpses and cleaning up the damaged parts.
Each and every one of them were outstanding talents.
So, even in Japan, they were able to cross over to Korea without being exterminated while opposing Tadanobu.
It was impressive that they were all women and that they were quite beautiful.

“Wow, they look delicious. I want to hug a girl after a long time. How is it? Are you going somewhere nice with me?”
“Let’s go to a good place later and have dinner first.”
“Yes, it should!”

Choi Mok-dong took me to his fine-dining restaurant.
There was no other employee besides us, as if they were paying attention in their own way.
Just the fact that a gay middle-aged man set up a table for the two of them to eat alone gave me goosebumps.

However, when the food began to be served, Choi Mok-dong was surprised to see a person appearing.

“No, everything, how did you…”

I called Kim Se-ra and Lee Hyun-joo here.

“I didn’t come here to see your face, so don’t be surprised.”

The two of them were even arm in arm as if they had become friends before they knew it.

“Hunter-sama, can’t you… Did Hunter-sama call you?”
“Yeah.”
“You should discuss this with me, Won. Why do you keep doing that?”
“Repeatedly?”
“Isn’t it! Is there anything cool about the Alice case or the Wataru case? How long do I have to cater to Hunter? Are you really thinking of helping me?”

Choi Mok-dong exploded in front of me, as if there was something accumulated in his own way.

“Would you like to help?”

I chuckled.

“Of course not.”
“…Yeah?”

Sera Kim noticeably called the restaurant’s chef.
Pulling out her wallet, she gave him some checks and said,

“Take the staff and get off work early today. Because we have something to talk about.”
“But I haven’t brought you any food yet…”

The chef glanced at Mok-dong Choi, but Mok-dong Choi only looked at me with a dumbfounded face. He had no time to pay attention to the chef.

The chef took money from Sera Kim and bowed her back.

“Thank you, madam.”

Choi Mok-dong stood firm as a stone and then laughed, “Ha, ha, ha,” Syllables at a time.

“You’re joking too much, Hunter.”
“I’m not kidding. I know enough about how Busan works, and I have no one to introduce myself to, so let’s end the relationship.”
“Are you sorting out the relationship? What do you mean by that…”

I gathered my thumb and forefinger and brought it to Choi Mok-dong’s forehead.
Choi Mok-dong, not knowing why, just looked up at my fingers.

Fuck!

Let’s hit the night, Choi Mok-Dong said, “Billion!” He made a noise and rolled his eyes.
Bubbling froth in his mouth, and then chump! He tumbled from his chair with a thud.

I wiped my bloody hands with a napkin.

“I’m tired after hanging out with people with no manners.”
“Really. Thank you for your hard work, Hunter.”

I talked to Sera Kim on the phone and talked separately.
What I envisioned was to put her in place of her Mokdong Choi from the beginning.
After all, Sera Kim has a bossy temperament and she didn’t like to share power with anyone.
She said that she would take care of her children and raise them.
Since I will basically reside in Seoul, I needed someone else to manage Busan.
For such a person, Sera Kim was perfect.
Since she had already been exposed to “A crush for no reason,” The possibility of betraying me was zero.

Lee Hyun-joo, Alice, and even Katsumi, whom I met today.
I thought that if they united to manage Busan, there would be nothing to worry about.
Unlike before, make Busan a safe and healthy city, and furthermore, use it as an advance base to monitor Japan’s trends.

Of course, a few more things had to be done to do this.
The first thing to do before finishing work was to grow the girls.

“Sera, please clean up Choi Mok-dong’s body and tissues. She calls if she needs my help.”
“Please leave it to me. I haven’t had much to do in the meantime. After Mokdong Choi died, I enjoyed simulating what I would have to do to become a boss. I’m so excited to actually think about doing it.”
“Hyeonjoo, did you have a good day yesterday?”
“Yes, my sister took me here and there, so I had a good time.”

No wonder Lee Hyun-joo’s complexion had improved a lot compared to when she first met her.
She could see that she was completely free of her terrible drug addiction.

“Good for you. Would you mind making time for me today?”
“Yeah? Ah yes…”

Lee Hyun-joo must have understood her meaning, so her face blushed.

I had sex with Hyunjoo Lee and her all night.
My goal for her was to make her S-class within her today.
Growing her up meant something to me as well.
Because I needed the ability of an S-rank alchemist too.

After spending a stormy night together, Lee Hyun-joo, who woke up in my arms, whispered blankly.

“I had a dream. The dream of becoming an S-class Hunter. Everything I touch has turned to gold.”
“Everything you touch won’t turn into gold, but becoming an S-class isn’t a dream.”
“Yeah?”

Lee Hyun-joo really became an S-class hunter.
Since she was at the highest level even with her A-class in the first place, it wasn’t too difficult to develop her to the next level.

“I-I’m really… S-class?”
“Yeah. Can’t you feel anything different?”
“Ah!”

Lee Hyeon-joo suddenly got up from the blanket and went to the table.
She pulled her notebook out of her inventory and she started jotting down something.

As I became S-class, I could see that she was immensely inspired as her alchemist.
Her mind must have been filled with fog while she was high on drugs.
It was difficult for me to imagine how liberating it would be.

I slept more while Lee Hyeon-joo wrote her notebooks in her naked body for hours.
Because I have to do the same thing a few more times in the future.
Even if I wasn’t tired, I felt the need to recharge my energy.

“Ah! Really!”

Lee Hyeon-joo opened her notebook with her thrilled face, she said.

“I really have become an S-class Hunter!”
“Because it is.”
