Hoarding in Hell Novel

Chapter 39 what are you doing (1)

“There was no such thing as achieving a new goal?”

“Yeah… And there were no signs of a dungeon rank increase. It’s still a fixed type, and other hunters who entered the same time period didn’t testify like that.”

The public official who was dealing with Noh Ha-eul answered with a puzzled expression.

If it had been another hunter, he would have questioned where he was drinking and going into a dungeon, but Haeul Noh was a leader of the compatible Mama Clan and also had a good reputation as a hunter and was a responsible person. There’s no way she could lie like that. Above all, the testimonies of the newcomers were consistent.

Noh Ha-eul sat down on the sofa of the Cheonggye Dungeon Management Office with her disappointed expression. If so, what was it that she saw?

‘ Then I saw that man… … .’

Haeul Noh focused on Hyunmoo. Regardless of the ownership of the goblin, it was necessary to secure information about Hyunmoo. He hits the stone with a wooden pole and hits his head at once from that distance. Noh Ha-eul was the only opponent who had been hurt once.

“what are you doing?”

“Hey!”

Noh Ha-eul got up from her seat, startled by the sudden appearance of Hyunmoo.

“What, what, all of a sudden.”

“No, I waved his hand in front of him and called his name, but he didn’t answer.”

“I, do you have any business for me?”

Noh Ha-eul regretted saying that he was arguing without realizing it, saying what a stupid thing to say. It wasn’t Hyunmoo who had the business, he was himself.

I had to hold on to Hyunmoo right away and ask him what his identity was, what his level and abilities were, and his affiliation.

“I thought you caught that goblin well.”

After Kirson disappeared, the newcomers clashed and went out using the hearthstone. Hyunmoo was waiting for No Ha-eul, and he left late. No Haeul returned with a complicated expression after a while.

“Yes. He must have shed a lot of blood, so he died in the middle of the forest.”

What No Ha-eul found was a goblin whose whole body had been egged.

It was similar to a wound that Hyunmoo had shot through his body by firing a shotgun with a piece of stone. Besides, he was wearing a red hat and messed up equipment. He appeared to have died of excessive bleeding.

However, Noh Ha-eul wasn’t sure if it was the real goblin. How could such a strong man die in vain?

He’s a smart guy, so there’s a good chance he’s been disguised.

“I brought a hat as evidence for now, but I think more investigation is needed.”

He could have resented the fact that he missed the Red Cap Goblin because of Hyunmoo, but he never thought of such a disrespectful thing. First of all, it was true that one newcomer saved his life thanks to that.

“Ah, now that I think about it, thank you. I was almost at risk because of my inexperience, but thanks to Kang Hyunmoo, I survived.”

“Is that so? So, do you think I can go to a 2-star dungeon with my skills?”

Noh Ha-eul looked at Hyunmoo with a blank expression on his face. She said that the goblin she was dealing with was not a strange monster even if it appeared in a 3-star dungeon instead of a 1-star. Then Kang Hyunmoo can go up, not to mention.

However, he soon realized that he was not able to go to the upper dungeon because he was caught up in the procedure compared to his ability. And that permission rested with the inspectorate.

“Oh, of course…”Noh Ha-eul, who was about to answer yes, stopped talking. Can I send interest to 2 stars as it is? He is an opponent whose abilities and plans are unknown. No, is it true that humans are right? Maybe it’s a new humanoid monster that came out of a dungeon by chance.

“Mr. No Haeul?”

“…Of course it’s possible! It’s possible with 3 stars instead of 2 stars.”

what do you know

Kang Hyunmoo is a great talent. Noh Ha-eul was not stupid enough to miss the talent in front of him with such an outrageous suspicion. Even if he was a monster, it didn’t matter as long as he could speak and listen well.

“If you are a member of a clan, you will be able to access 4-star dungeons depending on your affiliation. Kang Hyunmoo, honestly, you are very talented.”

“thank you.”

“Have you ever been a Hunter before and then took a break? Your level seems pretty high.”

He said it was his first visit to the dungeon and because of his youthful appearance, I thought he was just a new hunter. It was because he seemed to be a little nervous even in the dungeon.

But if you think about it, there were plenty of hunters who didn’t slow down even though they were high-ranking hunters.

“Did you have to visit a 1-star dungeon because of the rating system? Have you ever entered a dungeon before…?”

What No Ha-eul asked was a question that could be a little subtle. It is asking if Hyunmoo was a rogue, unregistered hunter.

He can know whether he is capable or not without being authenticated, so there were many hunters who entered without registering with the government.

However, unregistered hunters are basically illegal, and they often develop into rogues because they cannot find support from other companies or jobs.

But if Hyunmoo had been an unregistered hunter and decided to change his mind and come into the system, his abilities were understandable.

“Well, something similar happened.”

There’s no need to talk about Difficulty: Hell.

Hyunmoo answered plainly.

“okay.”

Noha-eul was not disappointed. Hunters often hid personal information. Even only ‘Park Do-ryung’, the head of compatible Mama, covered her face and wrote anonymity. Only close acquaintances knew his bare face.

“Excuse me, but do you have any secrets about your level?”

“Level 20.”

Noha-eul paused. If it’s your first dungeon visit at level 20, it’s like proving that you were an unregistered hunter.

But it really doesn’t matter as long as he hasn’t committed a crime. In the early days of dungeons, people who just wandered around because there was no system or anything else registered quite late.

Hyunmoo looks young for that, but he wasn’t a big deal.

There was something else to really be concerned about.

“But, you’re stronger than you think… are you?”

No Haeul’s level was 28. However, Hyunmoo’s performance against goblins was equal to or slightly better than himself.

“Are you one adult?”

“Yes.”

Noha-eul was a little sad. If you are level 20 at 1 star, there is no growth potential anymore.

Noh Ha-eul wasted his skills. Her compatible mama, to which she belongs, tends to be a small elite, but that does not exclude low-ranking people.

This is because even a low-level hunter needs a place in the right place.

‘How can such a talented person remain so unknown?’

Noh Ha-eul even asked a question as if it was a pity.

“Do you belong to any clan?”

“No. Are you questioning this by any chance?”

Noh Ha-eul opened his eyes wide and hurriedly waved his hand.

“No, no. I’m sorry if that sounds like that. If you don’t belong, I’d like you to visit our Compatible Mama Clan.”

Then he pulled out a business card from his pocket and handed it to him.

「Clan Compatible Mama: Noh Haeul, Team Leader of 3rd Tactical Team」

If there are talented people, they are willing to try to hire them. That was one of the inspector’s most important duties.

Hyunmoo looked at the business card and shoved it into his pocket.

“If you want to quickly attack a higher level dungeon, you can enter the clan even if you do not have the appropriate level permission, either by visiting the clan or by inviting outside personnel. Because the clan guarantees the identity.”

It was an expedient, but it was possible. But Hyunmoo shook his head.

“Well, I think you should think about it a bit more.”

“But the upper dungeon is alone…”

“Up to this point, I’ve been doing well on my own, and above all else, the process of sharing the loot like this at the end is very cumbersome. Also about contribution.”

Rather than completely rejecting it, I wanted to meet the Almighty and make a decision.

Noh Ha-eul’s level was lower than expected, but it may be because Hyunmoo lived in a crazy world.

Once the overall level was assessed, it seemed to be possible to determine Hyunmoo’s position in this world.

“If you look at the contribution of dungeon hunting, aren’t No Ha-eul and I actually half-half? But, why is it a bit annoying to share it fairly?

Noh Ha-eul was what Hyunmoo was talking about, then realized he was talking about the Red Cap Goblin. Hyunmoo didn’t even count the other miscellaneous goblins he hunted.

After all, it was the Red Cap Goblins who killed enough goblins to overwhelm them. Facing Noh Ha-eul’s confused expression, Hyunmoo smiled brightly.

“Anyway, I look forward to seeing a positive report on the promotion.”

***

After the first dungeon exploration, Hyunmoo returned home immediately.

It was a modest victory, but it was a day worth commemorating anyway, so I was thinking of going out to eat with Yu-min.

However, Hyunmoo found a strange man in front of Yu-min’s house. He was a man in a black suit and dark sunglasses.

Hyunmoo gave him a sneak peek, but his abilities were undetectable. He was a common man.“Sent by Hwi-so Park.”

“Teacher?”

Instead of answering Hyunmoo’s question, the black suit moved the two briefcases lying on the floor next to the door.

“I wanted to bring it to the house, but the person inside didn’t open the door at all.”

‘It’s money.’

Hyunmoo felt it intuitively. They told me to bring it without getting caught by the National Tax Service, so I wondered if it was this way.

“…From now on, wait in the car instead of in front of the house. Call me.”

“Yes. I will. However, the teacher said that this payment is to be sent temporarily, and that we will come up with a simpler method next time.

The suit bowed at a right angle and disappeared. Hyunmoo immediately knocked on the door. The door opened quickly.

Soon, Yu-min with a frightened expression appeared with a wooden stick. It was one of the pieces that Hyunmoo left behind.

If the suit was forcibly brought in, he would have had the rare experience of splitting his head with a rare weapon.

“Did he go?”

“It’s from Hwi-so Park.”

Hyunmoo grabbed the bag and carried it into the room. Yu-min almost stumbled and fell while trying to get the bag.

“It’s very heavy. What the hell is this?”

“Well, if you look at the atmosphere, it’s money.”

“Money? Why is the yangban always shooting in all kinds of accounts up to this point?”

Yu-min whimpered and took one of the bags. Then, as if he had suddenly remembered, he asked Hyunmoo.

“By the way, oppa, you went to the dungeon for the first time today. Oh, it’s only officially the first time. How was it anyway? Still, the first dungeon was worth trying.”

“It was just that. I made about 550,000 won.”

“Really? It’s very convenient if you go once for half a day and pay 550,000 won! It’s not like everyone is a hunter for nothing.”

Then, Yumin clicked and opened the bag. At that moment, the yellowish-colored wads of money in the bag poured rainwater.

Because they were tied up in bundles, the mess was avoided, but it was enough to fill half the bed.

Yumin looked down at the piles of money with his eyes wide open. Hyunmoo also looked at him with bewildered eyes.

“Huh? How much is this?”

“… let’s see.”

Hyunmoo and Yu-min stuck together and started counting the amount of money bags. Fortunately, the currency was unified in 50,000 won bills, so counting was easy.

There was old money and there was new money, but the amount per bundle was the same. If Park Hwi-so did not make a mistake while counting money or steal one or two copies, the amount fell neatly.

“……10 billion?”

Hyunmoo shook his head.

“You have one more bag.”
