Hoarding in Hell Novel

Chapter 25 suggestion 1)

In the sunset light, the red hair of the red butterfly seemed to burn more intensely.

Her arm was restored to its original state, whether it had been healed by a recovery skill. Hyunmoo tried to estimate how much mana she had left.

Although he was short, it seemed that he would be able to subdue the enemy butterfly in a short period of time. But Naked Butterfly showed no hostility towards him.

“I apologize for what happened earlier.”

The enemy butterfly, who had been staring blankly, opened his mouth. Hyunmoo sighed.

“It’s okay. I just wanted to work hard at what I was doing, but I didn’t have much greed. The original purpose itself was to play hard as a team and drive one person away.”

“I failed that part too. What happened in the end was just a coincidence.”

Instead of coming with a team, Red Butterfly came running alone. The result might have been different if she had been attacking with her team.

She handed out a gift box that was never a butterfly, which she must have received at the awards ceremony. Hyunmoo thought about what to do and accepted.

A reward for hard work is good, but not as much as an unpaid reward.

Besides, technically speaking, this was something that should have been in Hyunmoo’s hands from the beginning.

“Please forgive Hong-ryeon because she is trying too hard to do well.”

Hyunmoo panicked when the enemy butterfly bowed her head to apologize. It seems that the large woman’s name was Hongryeon.

Already, Hyunmoo had forgotten what her Hong-ryeon had done, which had driven her to the brink of her death.

But until he said something, the enemy butterfly continued to bow her head.

Hyunmoo tried to say something plausible, but gave up.

“Okay. Go.”

The enemy butterfly raised her head. She didn’t know what emotions were hiding beneath her expressionless face.

She seemed to be the most expressive in the gym. She nodded once more and her gun disappeared.

In her hallway, filled with her sunset light, only the scent of roses, resembling the red hair of her enemy butterfly, remained.

Left behind, Hyunmoo felt possessed.

It was like that until we reached the underground parking lot where Yu-min was waiting. Yu-min, who was holding the car close to the entrance, opened the door when Hyunmoo appeared.

“Oppa? Were you hit hard in the head?”

As Hyunmoo got on, Yu-min looked at him with a suspicious expression.

“No, because I saw a strange person.”

Yumin put his nose to Hyunmoo’s side and sniffed it. Hyunmoo looked back, squinting his eyes as he stepped back.

Her expression became subtle, but she left her car without saying anything. You never know when the headhunters will come. Yu-min glanced at the gift box Hyunmoo was carrying and said.”What is that?”

Hyunmoo looked into the gift box he was holding. It was an item given by the red butterfly.

Hyunmoo unwrapped the gift and found his gloves and an envelope. It was a thin black leather glove that covered the entirety of his hand. Item was as expected.

[Rough Grip Gloves (Rare): Increases Strength, Increases Hand Defense]

Rare items that are extremely rare or have some good effects are treated so preciously that they are prohibited from being shipped overseas. However, I did not know that one of the new hunter candidates would receive such a prize as a reward.

That means that Taesung put a lot of effort into this test.

“I got it as a reward, well. I think it’ll be worthwhile.”

The problem was that the person who got it was Hyunmoo.

Hyunmoo put on his gloves once. As I clenched his fists, I could feel the power to make up for Hyunmoo’s lack of ability.

‘But no matter how you look at it, it looks like something I prepared to give to the red butterfly.’

It seems that the organizers thought that Red Butterfly would win. If Red Butterfly uses it, it will work well with the skill. But there was nothing wrong with Hyunmoo having it.

“Oh, this is a new crystal moss I brought. I also sold it to Hwiso Park. The proceeds were put into my brother’s account, so check it out.”

“That man? Again?”

Yumin grunted and answered.

“Even if you sell it elsewhere, it seems that the person chases after it like a ghost and collects it. If it’s in the hands of that person anyway, it’s better to sell it to someone who will pay you more. Hwiso Park is also subtly putting pressure on me.”

“pressure?”

“That’s how you feel. You keep asking questions that don’t suit you.”

Hyunmoo stared forward quietly. It was roughly expected that someone would find out about him and follow him. No, it was rather a waiting situation.

He thought of delaying the timing with the utmost care, but he could still afford it.

‘Park Hwisora.’

Hyunmoo thought of the gentle old gentleman.

‘Can I win?’

Of course, considering the way we met at the cafe back then, it’s not too early now. But it didn’t feel like a difficult wall. He needed to meet him first.

If you sell Infernal Crystal Moss, someone will surely come to you who will appreciate its value.

The opponent must be a person with considerable distribution network, information power, and organization.

That’s exactly what Hyunmoo was looking for. Swallowing all of them, finding a route to trade without any further loss of crystal moss.

He thought at most two or three months. However, it was not a bad sign that he had already found a tail named Hwiso Park.

“By the way, what’s that envelope? A letter?”

Yu-min asked as if he was concerned about the envelope that came with the gift box. Hyunmoo looked at the envelope. There was only one piece of paper inside. Hyunmoo took out the white paper and held it.

“Min-ah.”

“Well, what is it, all of a sudden. You sing it so sweetly.”

“I have 50 million won in pocket money. Let’s go eat something delicious.”

***

In an era where dungeons are opened and monsters appear, the position of hunters is subtle.

Hunters aim for a hero who fights against powerful monsters, and expect savory profits as a bonus.

However, powerful monsters only lurk in the dungeon, and those who come out of the dungeon are usually weak and weak mobs.

Without an unusual phenomenon such as a flood, humanity would not even feel threatened.

Therefore, from the civilian’s point of view, hunters were perceived as having psychic powers at best and, at worst, a bomb that could not be detonated. Rather, they had a higher affinity for those who were able to work in the military or police.

“So, Lee Ji-tae is unique.”

Yu-min drove into the car late at night and said to Hyunmoo, who sat in the passenger seat.

“No, it might be because it’s Lee Ji-tae. People have no choice but to chase after money to make a living. Hunters have the power, there are ways to make money easily, so there’s no need to manage their image. But Lee Ji-tae I have a lot of money to begin with, so I can pretend to be more noble.”

“Hunters earn a lot of money, don’t they?”

“Where does all that money come from? It comes from the private sector. Without a hunter, the private sector would not be able to supply crystal moss or items, but that doesn’t mean it’s not ugly. it will be.”

Hyunmoo grinned at Yumin’s words.

“So you’re going to teach me how to spend money?”

“I’m going to teach you how to be a great hunter.”

Hyunmoo didn’t ask how well you know. Yu-min was more knowledgeable in strange areas than Hyunmoo thought.

He did not feel like a simple research graduate student. Yu-min started to park the car in the ground parking lot.

“Let’s say you raised me like that. So what are you going to do?”

“Yeah, of course, he’s the guinea pig of our rap…”

Hyunmoo interrupted Yu-min. Yu-min flinched, then quickly pulled out the hospoon that was hidden under his doorknob. He pressed the button, and he heard a clicking sound.

“Lock the car door and wait here.”

“Who’s there?”

Hyunmoo nodded his head. Although feeble, his survival instinct was sounding a warning. He opened the door of his car and got out of bed, and the cold night air brushed against the tip of his nose.

It was weak, but it smelled like blood. Hyunmoo quietly climbed the stairs and headed to Yu-min’s house.

It was dark and mixed with the patterns on the floor, so it wasn’t very noticeable, but it wasn’t enough to avoid Hyunmoo’s eyes.

The scattered drops of blood were explaining the traces of the battle that had been secretly here. But it seemed that the situation had already ended.

Hyunmoo eventually reached in front of Yu-min’s house. There were no more drops of blood. Even inside the house, there was no sense of presence.

But Hyunmoo didn’t stop there, and looked up at the higher stairs.

A black shadow stood there.”Nice to meet you, Mr. Kang Hyunmoo.”

“I’m not very happy, Mr. Hwiso Park.”

Hyunmoo looked up at Park Hwi-so, who was standing with a bloody cane. He thought he was going to find him anyway.

However, as long as they came to Yu-min and his house, and even blood splattered, he could not leave them alone.

“I have no intention of fighting.”

Instead of answering, Hyunmoo glanced at something lying next to him. It felt as if he hadn’t died yet, at least slightly breathing. Park Hwi-so said, tapping the man who had fallen with his cane.

“I tried to finish it before you came after finishing your date as much as possible, but your body isn’t like it used to be because you’re getting older.”

“what happened?”

Hyunmoo’s tone of voice naturally became stiff.

“These people are members of the Japanese Yakuza organization. I don’t know if you expected it, but the crystal moss you put on the market can have a bigger impact than you think. Now, top-ranked hunters are looking for high-grade crystal moss and set their eyes on fire. It’s on.”

“Crystal moss?”

“There’s a story behind it. Anyway, fortunately, I was the first to appreciate this crystal moss, so I was able to put an end to the rumors before they spread.”

Park Hwi-so sighed here.

“But, it seems that one of the black traders passed on information that there were such items to the Japanese side. So they dispatched hunters from there, but I had already recovered the items. So they tracked down the seller, Yumin Yang.”

Hyunmoo bit his lip tightly. He thought of crystal moss as a rice cake, and the black merchants who flocked to it, he considered the crucian carp he would catch. However, the impact was greater than expected.

to the extent that they come from the neighboring country.

Because of that, Yu-min was almost in danger.

“You should be grateful for protecting Yu-min, Mr. Hwi-so Park.”

Park Hwi-so did not answer and looked at Hyunmoo calmly. Because he made sure that the speculation didn’t subside from Hyunmoo.

“But I think you should also explain what you knew about this house and what you were monitoring.”

In the end, it doesn’t make much difference whether it’s overseas or domestic. In Hyunmoo’s eyes, Hwi-so Park was also just a fish that came with the aim of rice cakes.

The mere fact that Yu-min’s house was being watched was enough reason to be hostile to Park Hwi-so.

“If these children are Japanese black traders who are targeting me, you are the head of the Korean black traders.”

The head of the domestic crystal moss black trade route, which he tried to swallow once his identity was discovered. Hyunmoo was saying that it was none other than Park Hwi-so.

Hyunmoo stared at the prey that he encountered earlier than expected. Park Hwi-so, who met his eyes, immediately smiled.

“I won’t deny it. The expression “head” is futile, but it’s impossible to trade outside of my field of view in Korea.”

Hwi-so Park started walking down the stairs slowly. Every time he stepped on the stairs with his cane, there was a rattling sound.

“I was going to talk about it for a little while, but now that it’s like this, I think we’ll have to talk straight through.”

Hwi-so Park was silent for a while, and then said with a question as if he could not understand.

“Mr. Kang Hyunmoo, I heard you rejected Taeseong.”
