Chapter 044 Wings

“Heh heh heh.”

Seeing the skeleton speak, Chairman Lee Chul-jun unexpectedly smiled.

“It’s really amazing. How could this be possible!”

“what? Why isn’t this old man surprised? Aren’t you supposed to black out?”

It was the skeleton aven who was really taken aback.

Chairman Cheol-Jun Lee lifted up the skeleton and examined it.

“These days, the saying that you have to live a long time has come to mind.”

“Hey, why don’t you put it down and talk?”

“Heh heh, I’m sorry.”

After putting down the skull, the chairman looked at me and Yihui and said.

“So, are you here to show me this skull? Isn’t that all there is?”

Now it was time to get to the point.

“Yes, Grandpa. I have a favor to ask of you.”

“hmm. Shall we listen to the story of our grandson?”

Lee Hwi-hyung said with a serious expression to Chairman Lee who asked while leaning on the sofa.

“I want you to invest in Revengers.”

It was a tense moment.

what answer would you like to hear?

Lee Hwi-hyung and I were both swallowing dry saliva in nervousness.

Will Chairman Lee Cheol-joon allow the support?

At that time, Chairman Lee Cheol-jun moved his body.

The chairman straightened his posture and looked at us with eyes that seemed to penetrate people’s hearts.

“Ehui Hunter, is there a reason we should invest in the Avengers?”

Chairman Lee Cheol-joon’s voice changed, and the title he called Lee Hwi-hyung also changed.

“Yes, Chairman. I am going to make a business proposal to the chairman from now on.”

Lee Hui-hyung also changed his title from grandfather to chairman.

“That suggestion, try it.”

As he said that, the president’s gaze was fixed on me.

[How come, Lee Hui is missing and it sounds like you are telling me to do it?]

‘It’ll be right.’

Looking at Chairman Cheol-jun Lee smiling at me, I remembered the conversation I had with Hwi-hyung Lee.

‘Taeyang Group started with my great-grandfather. My great-grandfather was the one who turned crisis into opportunity during the Japanese occupation and the Korean War.’

I said this while bringing up the story a long time ago.

‘The reason I bring up this story is to say that even my grandfather is not easy. I have to prepare thoroughly.’

I took out the materials I prepared while thinking about Lee Hwi-hyung’s words.

“Yes, Chairman. From now on, the leader of the Avengers, elementalist Seojun Yu, will talk to you.”

thud.

When I put down the prepared paperwork, it made a rather heavy sound.

But that’s not what we’re talking about now.

If I submit it, Chairman Cheol-Jun Lee will look carefully at these documents.

But attracting investment is not just paperwork.

It will capture people’s hearts.

“Avengers is an organization that saves people.”

“An organization that saves lives?”

“That’s right. Hunter activities to fight monsters and close the gate.”

“It’s an obvious story. You didn’t bring all this data to convince me with that one, right?”

“Of course. It’s an obvious story. In addition, we are preparing one more business.”

“What kind of business is this?”

“We are preparing to explore the artifacts within the gate.”

“Exploration?”

The chairman’s eyes changed at the word “relic exploration.”

“If you know history, you know everything about that era. So, we are trying to approach it differently from the existing gate research.”

This was our item we talked about with Hwi Lee.

What Lee Hui hyung is good at.

Investigation and exploration of artifacts and historical sites.

And what he originally did in history: the creation of the back-end support guild.

This time, it was to organize it as a team under the Avengers.

“We will thoroughly analyze the other world that has appeared in our world through the discovery of relics and ruins from the ecological survey inside the gate. The conductor of that project will be Yi Hui Hunter here.”

“hmm.”

The president began to worry.

Lee Hwi-hyung was right.

‘My grandfather runs businesses in many fields, but there is one thing he is not good at.’

He said he couldn’t do only the historic site business.

From noble mtl dot com

Now we were proposing the business of the historic site.

It is also a business that is not set on the earth, but in the mysterious world inside the gate.

“Here, this talking skull and necklace containing his soul. And this journal will support that.”

To drive the final wedge, I held out my journal.

The chairman opened the journal and began to read it.

widely!

The chairman, who was reading the journal quickly, closed it and set it down on the desk.

Chairman Lee Chul-jun put his hands together and thought, then looked at us and opened his mouth.

“A very tempting business proposition. However, something is missing 10%. I don’t know what it is. Fill that 10% right here and now. Then accept this offer right away.”

It was the final gateway.

10% that the president is not enough.

He said he didn’t know what it was, but the answer must have already been decided. And I was aware of the answer to some extent.

“yes. As I said before, we are an organization that saves people. Saving people doesn’t just mean rescuing them from monsters.”

Hearing my story, the chairman nodded his head without changing his expression.

It seemed like he meant to keep talking.

“The members of a group are also people. It was rescued through the activities of the hunters, but if you lose your job, it’s not saved.”

That was the direction of our Avengers.

Labor cost payment and welfare benefits for guild members.

Compensation for damages in battles outside the gate.

Everyone is doing lifesaving through hunter activities.

However, everyone is forgetting one most important thing.

saving people’s lives.

It’s not just saving lives from danger.

Someone’s lifelong shop is destroyed, and even if they live, they don’t live, and someone is crippled and has to live in pain for the rest of their lives.

Perfect revenge is not destruction.

It is salvation.

To perfectly save us from what makes us hard.

“Our avengers are ‘revenge’ in that sense. If you just support me, I will do my best for him.”

There is a limit to doing all of this with the profits our team earns from hunter activities.

So support is needed.

“hmm.”

The president fell asleep in silence.

From noble mtl dot com

Now all the words prepared are over.

I was just waiting for a decision.

If Chairman Lee Cheol-joon agreed, the Avengers would now flap their wings.

“It’s something to live for a long time to see.”

Chairman Lee Chul-joon, who opened his mouth like that, continued.

“The world has changed. I’ve lived a long time, but I’ve never experienced anything as bizarre as this. Still, there are some things that cannot be changed. Do you know what the ideology of our group is?”

“It is known as ‘Be the light that illuminates people.’”

“I know exactly.”

Lee Hui-hyung told me about it.

The chairman smiled at Lee Hwi-hyung and told me.

“If that’s what you mean, there won’t be a need to go through all these papers.”

The chairman stroked the documents I had prepared and then ordered the butler who was waiting.

“Could you call Lawyer Song from the legal team?”

“all right.”

“grandfather!”

Hwi-hyung Lee exclaimed in delight at the chairman’s instructions.

is it permission?

Really, did we get the support of the solar group?

“You worked hard to prepare, Guild Master Yoo Seo-jun. Take good care of our Hiya.”

Chairman Lee Cheol-joon, who had returned as a grandfather rather than a chairman, held my hand tightly and said,

“Don’t worry. I really wish you well. Thank you for the difficult decision.”

“Heh heh heh, good, good. When Songbyun arrives, let’s sign the contract. by the way. This skeleton… … .”

“I am an aven. Pirate King Aven! Stop calling me a skeleton!”

I picked up the aven’s skeleton and shook it.

“aaa!”

“Be quite. Before you completely make up.”

“… … .”

As if the threat of cremation had worked, the aven stopped moving his jawbone.

When I put the aven down again, the chairman smiled and said,

“Heh heh heh, that’s a really interesting thing. Are you going to give me this?”

“yes. The remains obtained in the future will be jointly owned. That will also be handled by Yihui Hunter.”

“You’re thinking about the museum business as well.”

“You saw it right away. With the proceeds, you could set up something like the Gate Welfare Foundation.”

“You really prepared a lot.”

“Everything has to be thoroughly prepared.”

“hey. But, why are you guys treating me like an object?”

The aven, who had been silently listening to our conversation, interrupted.

Lee Hui-hyung, who lifted the aven’s skull, answered.

“Aven. Our meeting was short, but I can tell. That the Pirate King is a pretty cool guy. My grandfather is also a very nice man. So, can I be your friend by your side?”

Lee Hui-hyung said that with a sad expression on his face.

Aven looked flustered for a moment, then clicked his chin.

“Hey, if you suddenly come out like this, I… Eight. Grandpa! Was it Lee Cheol-jun?”

“It was.”

“I am a very demanding person. I’ll think about it if you grant me all my requests.”

“Heh heh heh, that’s it. let’s talk slowly Heh heh heh.”

Chairman Lee Cheol-jun seemed to be genuinely happy.

“Kas-sama, what are you going to do?”

“The dragon that annihilated our low-level demons belongs to Elementalist Yoo Seo-jun?”

dark space.

Cass and Taric were having a conversation.

From noble mtl dot com

Next to them was Chen, a low-level demon who was watching Yu Seo-jun.

“Say something that makes sense. Dragons have never been owned by humans! Did that mischievous race go under someone?”

“But really. And this Yoo Seo-jun is the one who ruined Cass-sama’s labyrinth.”

“what? Are you saying this is the guy who took Theseus’ sword!”

As Cass reacted, Taric knelt down even more.

“Yes, it was all recorded in the human media.”

And then, Taric held out his smartphone.

In the screen that Cass received, there was an article saying that Yoo Seo-joon had succeeded in closing the gate leading to the Minotaur Labyrinth.

Kwajik!

Cass broke the smartphone he was holding.

For a moment, Taric was crying, but he didn’t dare to show off in front of the higher level demons.

“Kas-sama, Brian-sama came to visit.”

“Brian?”

As an attendant demon appeared and spoke, Cass looked down at Taric and said,

“Tarik, you catch Yu Seo-jun and bring him to me. You can kill him and bring him back.”

“yes!”

After Taric disappeared with Chen, Brian entered the room.

“Bryan, 40th in the Pandemonium, meets Cass, 32nd.”

“Long time no see, Brian.”

Brian greeted Cass politely.

His face was smiling as usual.

Articles about Taeyang Group starting to support our guild spread quickly.

▶Avengers wings are attached.

▶The greatest collaboration between Taeyang Group and Avengers.

Chairman Lee Cheol-joon invested a huge amount in us.

As promised, we created a new team with Lee Hui as the main axis.

“Congratulations on the founding of the ‘Another World Expedition’ belonging to the Avengers!”

The Avengers gained wings.

You just need to fly.

A lot of things have already changed from before the return, but above all, seeing the happy faces of the team members was the sweetest thing.

However, our sweetness was short-lived.

There were even bigger mountains ahead of us to overcome.

There was still a lot of darkness to be reaped.

And before the mountain to be overcome, the darkness to be reaped came first.

*

a few days later

bang!

It was a sunny afternoon.

The sudden sound of an explosion shook our entire guild.

The shaking, like an earthquake, quickly led us out of the building.

The site of the attack was where the TFE offices were located.

I thought it would be safe because of Gilliant’s protection magic, but it wasn’t.

[No, the protection magic is still there. It exploded inside.]

‘So, you mean it’s an inside job?’

[That cannot be predicted.]

Thick black smoke rose from the three-story building into the sky.

First and foremost was saving people.

“Minyoung is ready for treatment. Lee Hwi-hyung and Su-yeon go in with me.”

“huh!”

“Gilliant! Can you extinguish the fire with magic?”

I ran to the building and asked Gilliant.

[Let me help.]

Gillian, who came out of the necklace, started spraying water magic at the building.

I used the element of water to wet our bodies and instruct the two of us.

“I will go up first. The two of you, please climb up carefully and save some people.”

I jumped straight into the fire using Hermes’ shoes.

“Heejin Kim! Where are you!”

The scene of the fire was exactly the office where Heejin and the fan club executives were located.

I saw people collapsed in front of me.

First of all, I tried to save the people I could see.

There was someone blocking my way.

“How are you?”

A white face with a grin.

It was the first face I had ever seen.
