Chapter 120 – Episode 120: A Looming Doubt

I got a call from Kim Hyun-jung.
Time for periodic reporting.

– This is Kim Hyun-jung. Master.

She called me periodically to report what issues were currently happening in the Daesung scout team and how Daesung was moving.

“What is the current state of the scouting team?”
– Currently, nothing special is happening with the scouting team.
“Is the evaluation of Jeongsoo-ryun still the same?”
-Yes, he is a strong student, but the prevailing opinion is that he is currently connected to an unknown guild and that he will not perform very well in dungeons.
“Right.”

It seemed that he didn’t have to worry about targeting her in her greatness right now.

-But I have two pieces of news for you, Master.
“Two? What is it?”
-First of all, there is a new dungeon that Daesung is paying attention to. It’s an A-class dungeon, but the Hwaryu Guild went to subdue it and said there was no news. Currently, Daesung is thinking of raising the level of the dungeon.
“Okay? I’m surprised I don’t think the grade I’ve set has ever changed.”

At least Daesung was like that.
It was because he was perfectly confident in the skill of grading based on the concentration of mana inside the dungeon.

-So, it is understood that Daesung is currently planning to form an additional punitive force.
“Daesung must be quite troublesome.”

The skill Daesung had the most confidence in lately was the dungeon difficulty setting skill.
Because that one drastically lowered the death rate of hunters dying in dungeons.

It was all thanks to their skills that the various guilds quietly followed Daesung’s oppression.

– Based on rumors, it seems that the higher up judges that it is not a big problem. I didn’t see any technical glitches.
“The reason is that?”
– I don’t know either. Until then, I don’t know by my authority.
“It’s okay. This is enough.”

It was all inside information that outsiders couldn’t hear.

“Anyway, it’s a part that can be skipped by mistake at least once.”

However, it will not be able to prevent other guilds from breaking the firm trust in Daesung’s skills.
Unlike other things, life depends on it.
Other guilds will also react sensitively.

“And you said there was another piece of news, what is it?”
-Ah, current manager Park Hyeon-moo left the office to see the owner.
“Me?”
-Yes, I am suspecting that the last time Lee Kang-san and Geomseong-nim sparred with each other in Gwangmyeong was related to the master.
“Okay?”
-Yes, I probably won’t do much checking. I only suspect that the owner may have done something related to Mt. Lee, but there is no evidence.

Perhaps, when Lee Kang-san came to see me about Lee Hye-ri’s tutoring, he got suspicious of Park Hyeon-moo.

-It will arrive soon, so I think it would be good for the owner to prepare as well.
“I get it.”

Park Hyun-moo is the manager.
I thought I’d never see you again
It’s still annoying

-Then I’ll just hang up. I think the office staff will be suspicious, se…
“Do you have any final reports?”
-Ah yes. Master’s Slave Years Kim Hyun-jung masturbated while reporting, and she climaxed twice during the report.

Her emotionless expression eased and she smiled wide.

“Are you remembering to masturbate your nipples every night?”
-Yes, I am imagining my master and masturbating my nipples until I climax once a day.

A blush appeared on her cheeks.

“Today, masturbate and send me a video.”
-All right.

After her words, Kim Hyun-jung hung up on her.

“Park Hyun-mura…”

She was the most embarrassing person in the current situation.

But he was someone I had to face someday.

‘It’s better now.’

Now, before starting additional activities at the same time as setting the foundation to some extent.
With the Sword Master, Lee Kang-san, and a helper named Marcuson, he should be able to escape his suspicions.

I’ll have to do some preparation.
I had to look as ugly as possible.
Han-ryang, who has lost everything and has no will to live.
Only then will Park Hyun-moo dispel her doubts.

I changed my clothes.
A stretched-necked white T-shirt that smelled watery because it wasn’t dried properly, and tattered pants that I had taken out of the clothing box to throw away.
Then, he sprayed half a bottle of soju on his body and drank the remaining half bottle at once.
It felt like my throat was burning.

Woo-wook.

Alcohol is never my taste.

The trained body was the biggest problem, but that can be solved.

I pulled out a disposable tattoo marker just in case.
Did you say Hera?
I heard that it is not a permanent tattoo, but a tattoo that lasts for about two days.

It’s a tattoo from a guy who hasn’t left a single scar on his body in his entire life.
It should be good enough for camouflage.

Ding dong! Ding dong!

“Kim Si-woo, are you inside?”

Park Hyun-moo’s voice was heard outside the door.

Came sooner than expected

Thump thump!

“Siwoo Kim?”

It wasn’t until Park Hyun-moo called it one more time.

“What is it?”

I shouted nervously and opened the door.

“You were inside. Long time no see.”
“Oh, who is this? Isn’t it our great Daesung team leader Park? Oh, did you get a promotion and become manager Park? My memory is hazy.”

Park Hyun-moo, dressed in a suit, stood there.
He narrowed his brows as he looked at me in a scruffy white tee and pants with a stretched neck.

“Are you alone?”
“What does it matter that I’m alone?”

Feeling the rising spirit of alcohol, I argued with the guy.
Is it because of the smell?
The guy covered his nose and inhaled.

“Keuheum, nap… You must have been busy.”
“Are you dissatisfied?”
“No. I heard that you were working as an appraiser a few months ago, right?”

He asked me in a suspicious tone.

“Keuk, appraiser? I quit that long ago.”
“I know you make pretty good money, so why did you quit?”
“Why? Sibeol, the hunters who are going out well got angry when they saw that they were showing off their earning well, so they quit. It’s because I can’t even do it anymore because of someone.”

The guy stares at me

“For whom? You need to correct it. Siwoo Kim was disqualified for killing his comrades inside the dungeon.”
“Oops, sorry. I drank a lot, so my memory is fuzzy. Lol. Can you forgive me I can’t even use my strength anymore anyway. It’s been a long time since I left the scene, so the fight didn’t work out…”
“Fight? Was it just a fight?”
“Oh sorry. I had a fight with a passer-by while drinking before. Of course I won. He was such a famous nobleman, this, this…Withdrawal? No Did you say Lee Kang-ho? Anyway, I had a lot of trouble with that nobleman… Hehe, forget it anyway.”
“…”

Chief Park looked me up and down.
And his eyes landed on my wrist.

“Oh, this? I don’t have anything to do as a hunter anymore, I got some tattoos. Don’t worry. Don’t go to the back alley and thug. It’s just a threat. For threats.”
“Ha, this is so…”
“But what did you come for? I don’t think I did anything wrong, but oh, did he come because I drank and got into a fight? Ayy, don’t be too tight. Never again If I drink and fight again, it’s a dog! Dog!”
“…”
“Or would you like a drink? I don’t have money these days, so I can only buy soju, but my manager Park is actually drinking…”
“No. I have a lot to ask you, but I don’t think you have to.”
“What. Trivially.”
“Let’s go.”

Park Hyun-moo, who lowered her head, turned her body and left.

It wasn’t until he turned around and disappeared in the elevator that I regained focus.

Sssss.

By turning the mana of the whole body, the alcohol was discharged out of the body.
Sweat mixed with alcohol gave off an unpleasant odor.

“I don’t know how effective this smoke will be.”

I wouldn’t have completely fooled Park Hyun-moo.
He’s so suspicious that he won’t remove me from the list of suspects.
Still, this should be enough.
That once the best hunter is living a ruined life as a drunkard and even a tattoo.
That alone would weaken the intensity of doubt.

***

“Is it really broken…”

Director Park Hyun-moo muttered as he climbed into the car.
Seeing through his eyes, it was clear that Siwoo Kim was broken.
A life of idleness that gives up the life of a hunter who can never go back and forgets the money he has earned.
The glories of the past were nowhere to be seen.

At first, I wanted to ask about Mt. Lee.
If he hid information, I thought of a way to dig it out.
However, he acted outside of Park Hyun-moo’s prediction, such as saying that he had fought with Lee Kang-san while drunk.
From the outside, he seems like an unanswerable drunkard, but why does he keep getting caught?

‘Strange. It’s too strange.’

A strong will that can be seen in those eyes.
Is that an illusion that Park Hyun-moo saw?

“You will need to check it periodically.”

However, it was too much of a burden to keep watching.
Recently, inside Daesung, there has been a lot of noise about the successor after Choi Woo-sung.
Is it Choi Woo-seok, who is currently managing director, or Choi Jae-seok, the face madam who is solving most cases in Korea, or is it Choi Kang-hoon, who independently established another guild, or is his youngest daughter Choi Mi-hee succeeding?
There were so many other things he had to worry about.

Because Choi Woo-seok even ordered to follow his brothers’ movements.

“I think it would be best to ask Kim Hyun-jung, the team leader of Team 1.”

Park Hyun-moo made plans for the future without even thinking that Kim Hyun-jung was a traitor.
He hopes that Choi Woo-seok, who he lined up with, will win in the search for successor.

-Sam, what are you doing?

While I was erasing the disposable tattoos I had made to camouflage Park Hyun-moo, a text message came from Yoo-ara.

-Tattoos are being erased.
– A tattoo? Sir, did you get a tattoo? Why? Why are you burning your own flesh!
– I did it once for a reason.
– Who do you have to threaten? Teacher is tall and has broad shoulders, so everyone would be intimidated just by approaching him and making an impression. You didn’t suddenly become a thug, did you?
-No.
-Then show me the picture.
-What picture?
– I heard you’re getting your tattoos removed. Show me a picture of your tattoo. Goo, it’s not because I’m curious! I was just wondering if it would have a bad effect on Sam’s skin.

She sent a startled puppy emoji.

“…”

Why do you suddenly want to see the tattoo?

-It’s okay. Don’t show
– No, why!

What a good thing

-It’s not good, so just don’t look at it.
– Who, who says that tattoos are good? I like it because I’m just a teacher.

“…”

Texting stopped for a while.

– (The message has been deleted.)
-No! No! No! It’s not that I like the teacher, it’s just that I’m curious about what it would look like if the teacher did it!

Yooara, who had just deleted the message she had just checked, texted in a fit of fuss.
Even then I don’t have an answer.

Turrrr.

The phone rang.

“Hello.”
-Never! That’s not it! Don’t get me wrong!
“Did you say you like me?”
– Ugh…
“Don’t be too negative. Because I know you don’t like it.”
-Well, then it’s difficult again…
“Where are you asking me to respond?”
– Oh, no. Anyway, did you erase all the tattoos?
“Almost everything.”
– Then can’t you just show me a little bit? I’m just curious, but…

What’s so good about that

“I get it. I will send you.”

I’ll be sad if you don’t send it to me again.

I took a picture of the only remaining butterfly tattoo on the middle of my forearm and sent it to him.
I couldn’t show my tight clothes, so I took a picture and sent it so that only my arms were visible.

-Oh, oh. Well, something doesn’t look like Mr. Certainly, I think it’s cooler without tattoos. Lol.
“By the way, isn’t the exam next week? Can I call you like this?”

I soon found out that the final exam for the first year was next week.

-Go, I finished my studies. In practice, you only have to do what you have done so far.

It was Ara who spoke as if she was a bit perplexed.

-That, that teacher.
“Huh?”
-I heard from Hyeri. Ho, maybe Jung Soo-ryun… No, no. I’ll ask later.

Yuara hurriedly turned her words around.

– Ah, uh, mom is calling. Mom, I’ll be right there!

Ara hurriedly hung up on her.

“Hey you… You are sleeping.”

However, there was no answer to the phone that had already hung up.

***

“Teacher’s arm…”

A black butterfly tattoo that stands out among the traces of other tattoos that have been erased.
Kim Si-woo’s tattooed figure was projected in Yoo-ara’s imaginative mind.
It was rough and bad looking, but there was a wild beauty that came from it.
Teacher Siwoo, who always showed a neat appearance, even got a tattoo like this.
Ara felt her body heat up at the charm that came from the gap, which she did not normally show.

“Because if you feel better, you will concentrate more on your studies…”

As if hypnotizing herself, she looked at the picture of Kim Si-woo’s forearm.
Then take her skirt down.

“Haha!”

She started masturbating.
