Hoarding in Hell Novel

Do Won-kyung lit a cigarette.

As the tip of her cigarette burned red, her car stopped in front of her.

It was a foreign car she had never seen before. The rear door of the car swung open while the eyes of a large number of people were focused on it.

Do Won-kyung regretted the cigarette she had lit at the most and got into her car.

"The timing one is amazing."

“My teammates often say the same thing.”

Kang Hyunmoo smiled and handed Wonkyung Do a pack of gum.

“Is this the last one?”

"Yeah. I have nothing more to bring."

Do Won-kyung had nothing more to take with him from the Sejong Institute.

After removing the confiscated and heavy items that had to be transported in a truck, she only had one suitcase of items that were important enough to carry on her own. Hyunmoo started the car.

"How are you today?"

"It's so comfortable that it's unparalleled before. If I had known that I liked to sit around like this, I would have hit him sooner. I'm thinking of going around the world next month."

"really?"

"It's a lie, child. I'm going to die. I still can't believe I have nowhere to go when I wake up. I didn't know I liked the smell of laboratory disinfectant so much. Do you know what is the most annoying thing? I think I'll have to look for a seat for him, but he doesn't even call me."

“Even if you have the same experience as Dr. Do Won-kyung?”

"Half of it is my enemy, and half of it I'm noticing Park Gyu's son. Because in academia, rumors spread faster than new knowledge."

Do Won-kyung's situation seemed unfavorable. Hyunmoo felt slightly sorry.

"Okay, let's talk about Yumin. Do you like it or not?"

"I really liked it. The movement, the layout, and the perfect."

"That's right. Someone designed the rap."

Do Won-kyung muttered with a proud expression.

One-third of the devices in the Sejong Institute were brought by Do Won-kyung at his own expense.

When he was making a budget, what he was trying to fill with domestic products under various excuses was filled with high-quality foreign products with the money that Do Won-kyung had accumulated without life.

I heard that the Sejong Institute has completely stopped research because of all those machines.

"Looking at how well it was managed, it looks like you really cared for it. Can I give it to you like that?"

"Who gave it to you? I left it to you. It's annoying to rent a warehouse."

“Yeah… Oh, I didn’t say that I didn’t pass Yumin’s thesis review.”

"What? Then why did you drop out of school? That goal-oriented kid... Wait, no way.

"Yes. He said he has awakened as a capable person. But what were you trying to say?"

“…I must have awakened as a capable person! That’s right. I have no choice but to think about that. No, wait, you awakened as a capable person? Why? Why all of a sudden at this time?”

"I have something to point out."

There is only one possibility rather than pointing out. In order for a normal person to awaken as a capable person, he needs to be exposed to a high concentration of mana.And Yu-min has been exposed to extremely high concentrations of mana in recent months that are unparalleled to other places.

Through the finest crystal moss Hyunmoo brought from Hell.

I couldn't keep all of those things in my inventory, so where would I put them?

It's all under the bed.

It's not a silver nano mat, and I slept for several months on a crystal moss mat, so it might be natural to wake up as a capable person.

Like Hyunmoo, Yu-min was also exposed to Mana of Difficulty: Hell, so there was a possibility that the rating would be quite high.

"He's a talented person... it doesn't suit him at all... Are you sure you're not going to send him to the dungeon? Don't even dream of it. He's the type to look good with glasses and a white robe."

"That's Yumin's heart. It seems like he's not interested right now."

"Okay... But what's your last name?"

Hyunmoo looked at Do Won-kyung in the rearview mirror as if it was ridiculous.

“I don’t even go to the dungeon, but that’s important? If I don’t go anyway, I won’t be able to level up.”

"She's still my daughter, but I'm curious. Heh heh."

"It's still being tested. First of all, it doesn't look like it's a 1 star since I have a skill."

"Huh."

"Stop laughing. It's creepy."

When she and Yu-Min met again, she pretended to be cool when she was hot, but seeing what she is now, I thought she had tolerated it well.

Do Won-kyung seemed to have a strong desire to get on well with Yu-min again. It was good news for her Hyunmoo, whose one day she plans to bring her into her own lab someday.

“Dr. Won-kyung Do, how about working with Yu-min?”

“……”

There was no answer from Do Won-kyung.

It was natural. It's not Do Won-kyung, but Yu-min who decides that. Once Yu-min can forgive Do Won-kyung, it will be possible to work together.

“However, I won’t be able to tell Yu-min this and that like before. The head of the laboratory will be Yu-Min.”

"Then who am I? Chief Researcher?"

"Chief or something? Or chief kinky? Senior flirtatious? Give it any suitable name. It could be called co-director. Or, it is a way to separate Yu-min from the research field and avoid conflicts. If that's okay with you , I'll set up a place to ask Yu-min for forgiveness."

Of course, to make her place, you must ask for Yu-min's consent. Hyunmoo is well aware that there are times when children can never forgive their parents. She was, so she was willing to accept whatever the outcome was.

Another way is to set up a separate laboratory for Do Won-kyung.

But Wonkyung Do said she didn't answer until she finally got home.

When Do Won-kyung arrived at the house, he unloaded his luggage and finished preparing to enter. But she didn't leave and stood still, then she suddenly opened her mouth to Hyunmoo.

“Or maybe retiring like this would be one way.”

"Is self-esteem that important?"

"It's not pride, it's scary. When you're my age, once you fail, you can be a failure forever."

Living with the hope that you might be forgiven is different from not being forgiven.

Do Won-kyung is not a cowardly person. But there is one thing that everyone is afraid of.

Without saying any more, Do Won-kyung dragged her suitcase into her own house. A fairly large private house was left unattended all winter and looked cold.

It will take time for the warmth to fill.

Hyunmoo thought so and started the car again.

***

"Ha... I'm going crazy."

"It's really bad."

An upscale Japanese restaurant near Seoul.

A favorite place for wealthy businessmen, this place was filled with the sounds of sickness from the early evening. They were none other than high-ranking officers of the Almighty Alliance.

"As the difficulty rises, other places are the ransom price of hunters, accessories, crystal moss, and prices are skyrocketing, but only our Almighty Ryeon is going to die. Yeah? How did this happen?"

Kang Seong-gyu, the second in command of the Almighty, did not say anything with a firm expression on his face.

Almighty Ryeon has the Oh Dae-seong line made up of hunters, and the Kang Seong-gyu line, who is a non-hunter with a business part.

Of course, the two are complementary rather than competitive, but in reality, the rolling form was close to that of cheap hunters of the Oh Dae-Sung line and the suppliers of the Kang Sung-Gyu line at a low price.

Up to this point, when the difficulty of the dungeon was easy, it rolled as it was, but it changed as the difficulty increased. As the dungeon attack becomes more difficult, there are fewer appendages, but the hunters have no choice but to spare their bodies.

It was a natural result as the hunters just ate cheaply without reinvesting in their equipment or growth.

"If this is the case, shouldn't it be necessary to provide proper equipment and potions to the hunters from now on? Everyone is reluctant to enter the dungeon or is looking for a place to pay more money."

"No, somewhere else? If you joined the Almighty League, you should bury your bones.

"This gentleman is still talking nonsense. Don't go out and open your mouth. These days, all the kids leave!"

"Our company processes low-grade crystal moss and delivers it to a new material manufacturer. If you invest in expensive equipment and start matching it, you can't match the price."

Once again, the drinking party started to become noisy. Who was hit more? During the unfortunate battle, Kang Sung-gyu was only drinking alcohol with an impression on him.

Then an officer carefully raised his hand.

“I heard that Vice President Kang Seong-gyu is still alive.”

Kang Seong-gyu's expression hardened as the executives' eyes were focused. said the officer who raised his hand.

“I heard that they got material support from the Kang Hyunmoo team and it made them quite comfortable. The Kang Hyunmoo team gathered materials while visiting a 3-star dungeon, but who else in the Almighty World could do that?”

"It's only the representative Oh Dae-sung's team. But Oh Dae-seong's team is mainly focused on search and rescue, so it's not worth it for business... Come to think of it, Kang Hyunmoo's team goes around the 3-star dungeon three times a day?"

A murmur grew among the officers. Only high-ranking hunters can go through the 3-star dungeon several times. However, the team members led by Hyunmoo knew it was a one-star, or at most, a two-star.

If so, it meant that he was running a dungeon that far exceeded his level of difficulty. It's only been over a month since I fell into Hyunmoo's hands.

"Kang Hyunmoo's team, I've seen it once. They're wearing gear I've never seen before."

"They say they pour potions generously. Then you can run around the 3-star dungeon as much as you want. It's like carrying your life as a spare."

"No, is it still enough to do that? If it's enough to deliver what you've collected to Vice President Kang Seong-gyu, isn't it surprisingly close?"

"Let's stop!"

Kang Seong-gyu quickly hung up when the conversation went strange.

It is true that the goods were delivered by Kang Hyunmoo. At that time, Kang Seong-gyu also had a taste for porridge due to the reduced supply of Almighty Hunters, but when quality items came in, he received it. But he never thought that this would cause conflict between him and other executives.

'But I can't refuse.'

He was sucking the honey from his increased difficulty, and as his income increased, he looked for real estate here and there.

If I cut off my hand with Hyunmoo here, I would have to suck his finger along with the other executives here.

"This is not the time for us to fight. What can we do as Vice President Kang Seong-gyu? If any of us, Kang Hyunmoo's team offers to deliver, we can't refuse, right?"

The executive who spoke up for the first time began to cover it up as if he had made a mistake. There was nothing good about showing hatred to Kang Seong-gyu, the vice president."But, Vice President Kang Sung-gyu, I think we need to pay attention to the Kang Hyunmoo team. I've heard that some of us are already being delivered by Kang Hyunmoo."

There were several executives who did not even come here. Most of them were executives receiving deliveries from Hyunmoo.

They were the executives who helped the hunters grow by paying a conscientious price to the hunters, but they reluctantly followed under pressure from Kang Seong-gyu, saying that there was a price competition for nothing. They seemed to have turned completely.

“Not only that. There are more and more hunters who are dissatisfied with the fact that they are treated the same even though they have the same omnipotence. They say that they are leaving the existing team to join Kang Hyunmoo’s team.”

“I heard that Seo Ji-hoo or something has already formed a second team.”

"Hey, is this okay? Vice President Kang Seong-gyu? Isn't this just setting up another clan within a complete clan? It's a parasitic act of ignoring only talented people. What is CEO Oh Dae-seong doing? song?"

Kang Seong-gyu took a deep breath.

“CEO Dae-Sung Oh told me to imitate even half of Kang Hyunmoo.”

“No, what did you say… who was the one who fed the Almighty Ryeon until this point…”

The executives were so blurry, but in fact, they were parasitic. Their business was so bad that they couldn't even survive a day outside of the Almighty.

The officers lost their words and fell into silence.

Everyone criticized Hyunmoo, but the executives who were taking delivery from Hyunmoo were envious, and there was no way to contain him.

"...Then, do you have no choice but to watch it with your own mind?"

"Uh, even if we're not as good as Kang Hyunmoo, we have to promise that we'll be treated well. To attract a Hunter..."

"Hmm, but everyone must be dissatisfied... But I can't tell Kang Hyunmoo to support the Hunters a little less."

"One loach came in and made the water all cloudy, Won."

At that time, Sungkyu Kang stood up from his seat. Seeing him putting on his coat, the executives got up and followed him in bewilderment.

"No, why are you leaving already? The course isn't finished yet."

"Okay. I'm not in the mood to have a drink comfortably."

Kang Seong-gyu stopped for a moment as he headed out of the room despite the opposition. He then opened his mouth as he glared at the officers.

" Kang Hyunmoo, I'll try to find a way, even if I use my own hands, so you guys take good care of your hunters. to have it."

While the executives didn't say anything, Kang Seong-gyu left as it was.

Without Kang Seong-gyu, the drinking party had no choice but to be muffled. The executives whispered timidly, and then broke it down.

However, each of them started to figure out how to open the door to Kang Hyunmoo.

Kang Seong-gyu got into the car and said to the driver.

"Let's go."

But the driver did not move. Kang Seong-gyu realized only then that the driver who should have been waiting in the driver's seat could not be seen.

did you go to the bathroom For a moment, he found a pale hand in the driver's seat.

"Hey...!"

Kang Seong-gyu, seeing the man's hand with a clean cross section, tried to run out of the car. But at that moment, his cell phone began to ring. A cell phone was held in his severed hand.

Kang Seong-gyu struggled for a long time, but in the end he managed to pull the cell phone out of his hand and open it.

[The Almighty, Sungkyu Kang, are you?]

Kang Seong-gyu, who thought it was Hyunmoo, heard his voice and noticed that it was different.

He is not Korean. He was a foreigner.

[I think we can cooperate, I guess.]
