I Alone Going To The Tower

"Aww, what a pretty thing. Where did such a belly button come from?"

It took me a while to return to the waiting room proudly like General Triumph, and the president of the association was hugging me and squealing.

Even though she reached the pinnacle of humanity and became a certified second-class wielding real power in the world, her attitude towards me was the same.

"The impact was clear! With this, Korea's entry into the M10 is also within sight!"

"We still have a long way to go. The World Guild screening will surely produce good results."

"Yeah, yeah! That's my bastard!"

She hugged my body tightly as if expressing her will not to let her go. Ouch, suffocating.

"The benefits of a certified 2nd-level hunter are considerable. They are incomparable to those of 3rd-grade."

She explained in her quivering voice.

"If the 3rd level is about the representative of each country's guild or an ace-level hunter, the 2nd level feels like a global hero who works all over the world. You can go anywhere you want, and you can do anything."

"Ohh."

I twinkled my eyes.

“And wherever you go in the world, you can say that you, a certified second-class commander, eat the commander-in-chief.

… … That was it.

I've only heard that level 2 is great. I didn't know he had that level of transcendental authority.

"Ah, and from 2nd grade onwards, it's easier to think of it as finding something to do on your own, rather than receiving instructions from your superiors and moving like homework."

"I see what you mean."

As she looked at my face, she said very seriously.

"I'm really proud of you, Yoo-shin."

"Yeah?"

she comes close again I tried not to show it, but without realizing it, blood rushes to her face.

"Honestly, when I saw you, I felt guilty. Even though I was the president of the academy, I couldn't help you much, and I didn't put much effort into you.

"Ah, no effort was made. I felt it when Frost came to power. How much help the president of the association gave me."

She leaned against me and looked up at me with a strange expression.

"...well, you speak very nicely."

The look on her face reminded her of tickling her mood. Her nose is cold, and her saliva is dripping down.

"Hongyul Hunter! Are you there!"

I was startled by the sudden voice and straightened my back.

Federation staff ran into the waiting room and saluted.

"Hongyul Hunter! The other presidents of the association are waiting! You must attend the association president's meeting... Heo Eok!"

The staff froze. I witnessed the image of me sitting stiffly in place and the president of the association leaning on my arm.

"Sir, I'm sorry..."

"stop."

The president of the association called the employee who was about to run away.

The staff creaked like a wooden doll and looked back.

"What do you mean? I didn't hear you properly, so say it again."

As she said that, she didn't leave me.

“The World Association Presidents’ Meeting has already started on the 7th floor of the main hall!

"Twitch."

Eventually she fell from my arm and ran angrily through her hair.

"Call me and tell me that my hunter is late because he's undergoing a second-level screening."

"Yes, old!"

"And speaking of old age."

Her golden eyes flashed fiercely under her red hair falling down.

"Careful of your mouth. I don't even care if I'm talking behind my back, but when he's in trouble, I'm not alone."

"No, no, of course!"

"Turn it off."

After the federation staff left their seats as if running away, the association president stretched out.

"Ugh! I have to go to work."

"You're in a lot of trouble."

She got up from her seat and put her hand on her waist and looked back at me.

"...to see my brother's face."

"Yeah?"

"It's nothing. Let's go."

With her suit jacket wrapped around her shoulders, she waved her arms and disappeared. I bowed her head to her, greeted her, and let her sigh.

There was also a large hotel building on the World Federation site. It is mainly used by visitors, and there are not a few employees of the federation who commute here.

Certified Hunters are 70% DC, so the price is not too heavy. Of course, even those costs are counted as association expenses.

In the meantime, I have made some money by rolling the tower, but it still feels good to be free.

So, I unpacked my luggage in the hotel room, washed and fell asleep on the bed.

It was early morning when I woke up.

'… … I can't sleep.'

I changed into comfortable training clothes and went down to the 24-hour cafe on the first floor of the hotel. I was planning to fill my stomach here and prepare for the World Guild screening.

I sit in a corner and open my laptop.

"Huh?"

A little girl was sitting next to me.

About the same age as Eunsol? No, she looks older than Eunsol by one or two years.

Her face was pale because she wasn't white, and her hair was silver, but the more it went down, the darker the blue.

These days, there are a lot of hunters who have changed physically after Awakened, so it's not a very unusual hair color, but her eyes were particularly drawn to her.

She was sitting in her chair, waving her legs alternately, looking out the window in the darkness.

'Hmm.'

But no matter how much time passed, the child's parents did not appear. Worried about her, I asked her.

"Where are your parents?"

She turned her head and looked at me.

Then he looked all over my face.

I didn't want to be misunderstood as a strange person, so I tried to maintain a friendly expression as much as possible.

"Kim Yoo-shin?"

"uh?"

I looked at her in amazement.

"How do you know my name?"

“……”

She turned her head back to her expressionless face. Then she walked towards the wall, and then passed through the wall and disappeared.

I froze in place for 5 seconds.

"What, what?"

I hurriedly ran and looked out the window, but saw nothing, let alone the girl.

I feel possessed by a demon.

"Guest. What's wrong?"

The cafe staff came. Excitedly, I pointed to the table.

"Isn't there a girl sitting here?"

"Uh... I don't know. I've been at the counter all the time, but I haven't seen a girl come in."

What is this! Have you ever seen a real ghost?

'Ah. Did you see it too?'

- Yes, Top Master.

'How about detection magic?'

- There is no biological reaction.

My heart was pounding.

- To be precise... … Detection magic doesn't work very well.

'What are you talking about?'

- This is an unknown phenomenon. Detection magic does not extend and disappears in the middle.

It may be a harbinger of anomalies. Worried about nothing, I quickly left the cafe and went out to the hotel lobby.

A group of people had gathered in the lobby from dawn. They were talking and talking with serious faces.

I wanted to ask if they had seen ghosts too, but one of them pointed at me and shouted.

"Kim Yoo-shin is over there!"

… … Why is my name here?

People rushed in like an angry bull.

I wasn't a ghost, I had a business!

I tried to avoid myself quickly, but behind me was a wall and a cafe. There was no hole to escape.

Eventually, I was forced to return to my seat and surrounded by these people.

"Hunter Kim Yoo-shin! Sign a contract with us!"

"I want to contract the exclusive distribution rights of the Dutch potion!"

When someone said that, they were entrepreneurs from different countries, guild masters, association officials, etc.

"What's going on?"

"Mom, I don't know. Suddenly they came..."

You can hear the cafe staff covering their mouths and murmuring.

The powerful businessmen gathered around the young man in training suits, it is a strange sight even I think.

As I was pushed back to my seat, I scratched my head and sighed.

"I wonder why you suddenly changed your attitude like this."

They flinched at my words.

"Isn't everyone in the mood to put a hold on the US Food and Drug Administration? Why are you doing this now?"

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) declared that it would ban importation of potions unless ingredient labeling and safety verification were made.

When that fact became known, everyone in each country was taking a similar stance to cut the price of potions.

In other words, if you want to do business, you have to bow down and come in.

At the planning stage of Alchemia's world branch, the people who offered to help with that bubble spent money and built some infrastructure, so Frost put the brakes on Alchemia as an excuse, and they worked hand in hand and put pressure on us.

Well, actually, at that time, I was crazy because of the ordeal on the 6th floor, but Jeong Seo-jin, who oversees Alchemia, must have been under so much stress that his head throbbed.

Even for Jeong Jeong-jin, I have no intention of just passing on quietly.

"It was a measure that had nothing to do with the position of our guild!"

“The government has unilaterally passed the guidelines, so there’s no choice but to…”

Woong-woong-woong-woong.

Bad excuses to avoid responsibility.

boring. I looked at the cafe staff, completely ignoring them.

"Please take my order here."

"Yes, guest!"(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

The cafe staff rushes back and forth.

When I came in in training clothes, I used to do the math, but now it's incredibly fast.

I simply ordered dessert including cheesecake.

"Hunter Kim Yoo-shin! Talk to us first...!"

"We're not going to eat at a place like this, but if it's brunch, we'll take you to a better place!"

“The terms of our contract are…”

I responded with my gaze fixed on the internet article on my smartphone.

"Please be quiet."

Their mouths swelled.

I set up giants in each industry and ate the dessert in front of them.

They never opened their mouths.

I think you are well aware of the fact that the moment you take out even the 'professional' of the contract, Izari will be destroyed.

Why have companies' attitudes changed so suddenly? Simple.

If I become a world guild, any regulations will be obscured.

And in a situation where it has been revealed that the potion is a product of another world ruins, it is funny to keep holding on to the question of verifying the stability of the potion.

"I came to Switzerland for hunting, not for business."

I said, wiping my mouth with a napkin.

'I'm sorry.' ', they bowed their backs or nodded their heads firmly, taking extreme affirmation.

"I will contact Vice President Seo-Jin Jeong to arrange an appointment. Go to Seoul and meet the Vice President in person to talk."

I can't be the only one who feels this way

I want to let Jeong Jeong-jin, who has suffered a hardship, also taste the joy.

“……”

As the atmosphere around me subsided, I raised the corners of my lips.

"Why? It's the same because the CEO of a startup has this attitude, isn't it?"

I was faced with the extreme negativity that accompanies the cries.

'What a word!' "It's an honor just to give you this opportunity!"

No, honestly, isn't it? We all have a plan together, and we are working on a project with a lot of money, but as soon as we get a single project, we set up an American squadron and change our minds.

It's a venture company, and the executives are young and look down on them, but this is your mistake.

"Actually, it's okay if you just don't do business with us."

I spoke with a smile.

"We'll just take over a logistics company on our own and make a distribution line. I don't intend to give even a drop of soup to those who ignore us."

The sound of saliva is heard everywhere.

After that, when I gave a congratulatory order, they scattered. Still, he is making a schedule for Seoul while talking on the phone somewhere.

'I'll leave it to you. Seo Jin-ah.'

With an evil smile, I shifted my gaze to the smartphone.
