Return To Level Up

Chapter 34

As soon as Kyung-Min Yoon started moving with a determination, a guild was created in an instant.

He once bought a 10-story building in Jongno. And immediately terminated the contract related to the building and proceeded with the remodeling.

At the same time, all documents related to the establishment of the guild were processed and reported.

The guild was established even before the building remodeling was finished.

Creating a new guild was actually not a big deal. It wasn’t anything to draw attention to.

That’s right, there were a lot of people who established a guild than I thought.

Even though it was possible to establish a guild only with 1.5 billion won.

A guild was an organization that could make a lot of money if it was run well.

However, an appropriate sales network must be secured.

Whether it was a magic stone or a by-product of a useful monster, the Awakening Administration took it away at a low price, so even if I wanted to make money, I couldn’t.

Unless it was a large guild or a large corporation that had its own sales network, it was unavoidable.

They built their sales network using the black market or the bond market.

So, many of those who established the guild were related to the shade. However, he did not exploit the Awoken or treat them rudely.

Rather, it was treated well and managed not to escape. Because you need the Awakened to survive.

There, large corporations or large guilds used to establish small guilds for various purposes.

In fact, since the guild is a unique business centered on the awakened, there are holes in the related laws.

There were also those who established a guild to take advantage of the hole.

So, just because a guild was created, there was no point in getting attention. On the contrary, it gets much more attention when an Awoken one registers a new one.

It was the same with the establishment of a guild called Guardians.

Documents were processed quickly without any noise, and the guild was registered.

Every time a guild was created, the Awakening Management Office had 1.5 billion won in money, so there was no reason to rush through the procedures or documents.

The Awakening Administration has always been favorable to the establishment of a guild.

However, after it was established, the information was sent everywhere. When establishing a guild, if there is no other word from a large guild or a large corporation that is closely related to the management office.

And this time, the staff of the management office, who was with the whole process of establishing the Guardians’ guild, was a little worried.

“What should A-Market do?”

A-Market, of course, maintained a close relationship with the Awakening Administration. However, the method was a little different from other large corporations and giant guilds.

The other large corporations had mutually beneficial relationships with senior officials in the Awakening Administration.

Naturally, he gave me a lot more convenience and took care of most of the things I wanted.

On the other hand, in A-Market, the management agency promised active cooperation. Since it was a government-led company, the management office provided a lot of convenience.

A-Market was playing the role of a link that connects Korea’s dungeon business to the world, so it was a relationship that was inevitable.

So it was a concern.

Should this information be circulated or should we just bury it?

If the employee had a higher position or had more experience, of course they would have circulated the information.

However, this employee lacked experience and position to do so.

“Ah, I don’t know.”

The employee ended up tucking the relevant papers into a pile of other papers.

In this case, I decided that it would be better to just pretend not to know.

The poor staff gave the Guardians time to quietly lay the groundwork.

“Wow, I didn’t expect it to be this plausible.”

As Jihye Kim entered the lobby of her building, she said so. She nodded her head as if everyone agreed.

Some couldn’t keep their mouths open.

The guild lobby consisted of a huge space. Since the entire first and second floors were torn down and turned into a lobby, how great would it be?

Even the original first and second floors were higher than the other floors.

The overall design of the lobby was neat and futuristic.

Anyone who enters here will have their eyes wide open at first.

As soon as Ha-jin Kang entered the lobby, she was surprised. She left everything to Kyung-Min Yoon, so today was the first time to check the guild building.

“It was a building that paid a lot of attention to parking in the first place, so remodeling was a bit easier. Otherwise, we would have built a new parking building next door, but fortunately we were able to avoid additional expenses.”

At Yoon Kyung-min’s words, everyone in the vicinity was startled.

It was not enough to buy a 10-story building in the middle of Jongno, so they tried to build a parking building.

‘How much money did it cost you?’

While everyone was thinking like that, Yoon Kyung-min continued.

“The most urgent is the recruitment of Awoken. A guild that owns a building of this size needs at least 100 Awoken to properly run a guild.”

“The Awakened will gather slowly. I just don’t want anyone to come in.”

“Um… is there any standard that Master thinks? If you give me your words in advance, I will find a suitable Awoken.”

“It’s humanity.”

“Yes?”

“It’s called humanity. why? Is it strange?”

“No, it’s not that it’s strange, but it’s a standard that other guilds don’t usually consider. Well, it will take some time, but it is possible to set standards.”

“Don’t suffer alone and hire your employees as much as you like. If necessary, we can buy a building dedicated to our employees.”

Yoon Kyung-min smiled and shook his head.

“We don’t need that much yet. And maybe later, when the time comes, we will be able to solve the financial situation of our guild to that extent.”

Everyone looked at him in surprise at Yoon Kyung-min’s confident words.

And Kang Ha-jin felt much better because it was as if she was seeing Yoon Kyung-min from the past.

Of course, just because he feels better doesn’t mean you trust him 100%.

Ha-jin Kang has always been mindful of the fact that, since his return, he basically can hit anyone in the back of the head.

It was very tiring, but he couldn’t help it. Because it has become a kind of trauma.

‘It’s better to be careful and not to have that happen than to be vigilant.’

Yoon Kyung-min guided us around the building.

There were quite a few offices for general employees. The operation of the guild required more general staff than expected.

And on the top floor, there was an office for Ha-jin Kang, the guild master, and a penthouse for lodging and lodging.

No one was surprised or surprised to see it.

As for other guilds, guild masters are all like that. This is now a very common common sense.

“I put all the facilities I thought were important to the top.”

On the 8th floor there was a studio for Yoo Dong-hoon, and on the 9th floor there was a research facility necessary for the future project.

On the 6th and 7th floors, facilities for the awakened were gathered. Things like training rooms, simple lodgings, and lounges.

The remodeled building was great. It was efficient, stylish and neat.

Everyone seemed excited at the thought of living in a building like this in the future.

“I bought a nearby villa because there were people who needed a house. If you wish, please tell us. Remodeling is in progress, so we will prepare for occupancy as soon as construction is complete.”

Donghoon’s eyes widened. It was the part that still bothered me, but I didn’t know that he would have paid attention to that.

“It’s a really happy thing to work in a place like this and take care of the house…”

Yoo Dong-hoon muttered with a blank expression, and Yoon Kyung-min smiled brightly.

“I was very happy to be able to spend money without a won.”

In the Guardian’s small meeting room, three people were sitting around a round table.

Ha-jin Kang, the master of the Guardians, Kyung-min Yoon, in charge of the guild’s operation, and A-yeon Jeong, who decided to take charge of the guardians at A-Market.

“You are really fast. To be honest, I thought it would take a few more months.”

Ha-jin Kang glanced at Yoon Kyung-min and said.

“Because this man is so talented.”

Jeong A-yeon looked at Yoon Kyung-min with new eyes.

“I think this guy took care of everything.”

“I was able to work comfortably because I had a lot of money.”

Yoon Kyung-min said so with a shy expression, but Jeong-in shook her head with her eyes twinkling.

“No, you were really tidy, didn’t you? Please let me know if you come here later. A-market is always looking for talented people.”

“It won’t happen.”

Kang Ha-jin said so and looked at Yoon Kyung-min.

“right?”

Yoon Kyung-min smiled and nodded his head.

“Yes. I’m not the type of person who moves around, but I’m the type of person who sits so that if I get into one spot, I get blisters on my butt.”

“Now, let’s get serious about it. It seems that competitors will soon raise their heads in the A-market side, aren’t they?”

“Competitors have always been there. But, as always, no one will surpass us.”

“It would be right now. But if you are vigilant, things will change sooner or later.

Jung Ah-yeon’s expression changed slightly.

“It sounds like you have some information.”

Kang Ha-jin paused for a moment and looked at Jeong A-yeon and Yoon Kyung-min alternately.

“There will be chaos in the near future.”

“Are you mad? which······! Could there be a terrorist attack?”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Hajin Kang shook his head.

“It is not terrorism.”

Hajin Kang raised her tension slightly and then spoke.

“There will be something worse than terrorism.”

“What is worse than terrorism? I don’t think you’re expecting a natural disaster…”

“What do you think of the dungeon?”

“A dungeon? Why is the dungeon all of a sudden?! I wonder what will happen in the dungeon?”

Until now, there was a strong perception that entering a dungeon is dangerous, but leaving it alone is okay.

It’s not that I’m not at all anxious, but since nothing has happened so far, the dominant guess is that it will continue to be the case in the future.

“There are a lot of neglected dungeons in the world. Do you know?”

“Sure. There will be many dungeons that have not been discovered yet, and no one will touch the low-profit dungeons. And dangerous dungeons too.”

“A dungeon left unattended like that will eventually explode.”

“Are you going to explode? that······.”

“According to what I have checked this time, there is not much left. It went much faster than expected.”

Jeong-in swallowed her saliva and looked at Ha-jin Kang.

Doesn’t that mean that we have been anticipating such a situation for a long time and have been monitoring and confirming it?

“What would happen if the monsters in the dungeon poured out into the world?”

Jung Ah-yeon’s complexion turned pale.

“Really… it’s going to be a mess. The world is turned upside down.”

It was only then that she understood clearly what Ha-jin Kang was talking about when he said that things would be different.

“Then what should we do now?”

With a little bit of anticipation for Jeong-in, she asked Ha-jin Kang. If she had foreseen such a situation, she would have come up with a countermeasure.

“The reason the dungeon explodes is because there are too many monsters inside.”

“Then… you can go into the dungeon and hunt.”

“If you leave it alone, it will explode someday. So instead of ending it with a hunt, we have to get rid of the dungeon altogether.”

Jeong A-yeon’s expression hardened. It was because I knew how strong the backlash I would face when I made that claim public.

“It won’t be easy.”

“I still have to. When the time comes, they probably won’t be able to do anything either. A dungeon that is several times larger than it is now will appear in an instant.”

Jeong Ah-yeon looked at Kang Ha-jin with her wrinkled face.
