Chapter 33
âNo, Chairman!â
âOh. Youâre loud. What number secretary are you?â
âIâm the 6th secretary.â
âWhat are you responsible for?â
âIâm in charge of the chairmanâs parties, receptions, and guests…â
âAh. I remember. I asked you to bring all the Playboy models to the party and you were the idiot who left one out.â
âC-Chairman. I called all the models from January to December. The April models were twins, so one was missing…â
Hwang Gyeongryong raised his hand, signaling the secretary to stop talking.
âWould you rather be the one who makes excuses or the one who gets things done?â
âThe one who gets things done!â
âGood. Then move!â
Hwang Gyeongryong looked at Choi Yeonseung after giving the secretary an order.
âFor now, you should listen to what happened in the meantime. Wouldnât that be better?â
âWow. Hyung, youâve really turned into trash.â
âHow⊠How am I trash?â
âDidnât you just fire a person for no reason?â
âNo… Do you know how much I paid him? Hey, you. Come back.â
Jackson, the 7th secretary, came back with a sullen expression as he was preparing to leave.
âHow long have you been working for me?â
âTwo weeks.â
âHow much have you earned so far?â
âAround two hundred and thirty thousand dollars…â
âSee? I gave that much!â
âWhat does how much you paid him have to do with firing him?â
âI definitely warned him before hiring him that If they ever make one mistake, then theyâll be fired! They all know that!â
Hwang Gyeongryong had more than 10 secretaries. There were so many things for him to do… No, it would be more accurate to say that Hwang Gyeongryong often fired his secretaries. All the secretaries knew this, but they applied regardless because of the huge salary and the expectation that they could rise higher if they endured it. They could get any position they wanted once Hwang Gyeongryong had organized them.
âI see. Thatâs disappointing.â
âN-No, really… Aish. I understand. Get back to work!â
âT-Thank you!â The 7th secretary, Jackson, bowed excitedly and backed away. He didnât know who Choi Yeonseung was, but he was really grateful!
âDid you really have to do that? Huh?â
âHyung. As a clan leader, you should set an example for others.â
â……â
At the words he was hearing for the first time in 30 years, Hwang Gyeongryong didnât know whether to laugh or to cry.
***
âI majored in artifacts and dungeons at Stanford University. I was also the manager of two B-grade hunters and one A-grade hunter.â
âHmm. Is that so? I once did 500 kilos for the big three workouts.â
He benched, deadlifted, and squatted a total of 500 kilograms! Choi Yeonseungâs words flustered the person who came as his tutor.
âI-I see. In any case, let me briefly describe what happened in the 30 years.â
30 minutes had passed since then.
âChina, North Korea, Europe, and South?America?have been conquered?â
Choi Yeonseung was taken aback by the tutorâs words. He was aware that the evil god constellations occupied parts of Earth, but this was too much!
The tutor spoke to him with a puzzled expression. âTo be precise, theyâve taken Northeast China, the British side of Europe, and Mexico in South America.â
âAnd all of North Korea?â
âYes.â
âThe Korean people are suffering a lot… No.â
Now that he had thought about it, North Korea didnât seem like it would change much if it was occupied by an evil god constellation. Rather, wouldnât they?become better?
âThe evil god constellation will keep their oaths…â
Choi Yeonseung looked at the map to check Earthâs condition. Every part of the world sustained damages, but China suffered the most bloodshed. The northern part of China had been captured by an evil god constellation along with Beijing, its capital.
âThey’re probably suffering.â
The Chinese government probably gritted its teeth when it was forced to move its capital to the south.
âIs South Korea safe?â
âSouth Korea is one of the countries that handled things relatively well during the invasion of the evil gods, but…â
âBut?â
âMany South Korean hunters moved overseas back then. The United States in particular benefited a lot from it.â
â?â
âThe hunters risked their lives to stop the invading monsters, but the government allegedly treated them poorly in return. Disappointed, the hunters moved away in droves…â
â… Really. I canât even imagine it.â
Choi Yeonseung scratched his head. He then remembered the South Korean government constantly emphasizing passion pay when he was still there. The members of the National Assembly didnât consider stopping it and just said, âBe patriotic!â
âWhy was everyone like that back then?â
It seemed that all the hunters around him were full of patriotism!
âWait. My clan leader hyung… Did Hunter Hwang Gyeongryong leave South Korea and come to the United States at that time as well?â
âThatâs right.â
âHah.â
What made his clumsy clan leader do that? No, he succeeded in a way, but…
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ says it went well. It is telling you to bring that hunter into your household.]
âMy household?â
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ is wondering if he is reliable.]
âHe is, but… I donât know where to start explaining.â
-Hyung. The reason why I disappeared from Earth was to train to prevent the destruction of the world. As a result of wandering in the Abyss for over tens of thousands of years, I became a constellation. Come under me and become my household member.
-Yeonseung, did you take a new drug in the Abyss?
[… The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ says it wouldnât be to that extent.]
âIndeed, heâll understand if I explain it properly.â
Choi Yeonseung realized why he was hesitating. He didnât want to involve Hwang Gyeongryong in the fight between constellations. Hwang Gyeongryong might be the strongest hunter on Earth, but he was a mortal. There was nothing good about him becoming involved in such a war.
Moreover, Choi Yeonseung didnât feel the need to create a household even when he was still fighting as a wandering constellation. He found it much more comfortable to be the one fighting than using his power of existence to develop others. Choi Yeonseung was more of a warrior than a king.
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ says that you will need followers on Earth. It says that you should get used to it.]
Choi Yeonseung traveled around the Abyss and engaged in an all-out war with the constellations he met. However, it was actually rare for constellations to fight directly in the Abyss.
They had too much to lose! If so, how did they solve problems? They sent their household members to fight and compromise with each other. The method was?different every time, but it was clear that the household membersâ powers were needed.
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ says that Earth will constantly have those types of constellation battles. If you have no household members, then you wonât be able to join them.]
â… Um…â
The cat constellationâs words troubled Choi Yeonseung. If the constellations competed against each other in that way, Choi Yeonseung certainly wouldnât be able to join. He only had?Odaigon!
âCanât I pretend to be a household member and enter?â
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ says thatâs a?really underhanded?tactic, but?it should be worth a try for?as long as you donât get caught.]
Most constellations were born as constellations. Perhaps that was why they couldnât come up with crazy ideas like Choi Yeonseung. A god-like being pretending to be a household member so they could join the fight? Putting aside saving face and their pride, it was a matter of undermining their own power of existence.
â… Is it that bad? I donât really care.â
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ says that is your strength.]
The strength of a mortal constellation! Choi Yeonseung wasnât aware of it, but both the cat constellation and the manipulator agreed. He wasnât born a constellation, and that made it possible for him to act more freely.
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ advises that even if you donât necessarily take them as a household member, it is still beneficial to have many talents that can be used as one.]
âUgh. Iâm not fit to be a leader.â
Choi Yeonseung was disgusted. Back when he was still in a clan, he was in a position to follow orders, not give them.
-Yeonseung. Now that you are quite a senior in the clan, it wouldnât be bad for you to teach new hunters.
-Yes. I promise to work hard at it.
One week laterâŠ
-Yeonseung. Do you know why all the new hunters left the clan?
-Letâs see? The clanâs name is tacky…
-… Hey! Itâs because you trained them too hard!
-?I gave them a much lighter training than the one I do
-…
-… Alright. Youâre no longer in charge of training. Just focus on the raids!
The clan leader didnât argue further because he knew how sincere Choi Yeonseung was. He naturally didnât entrust Choi Yeonseung with training and would often tell new members, âDonât ask him to teach you.â
The rookie hunters were puzzled, but they soon figured out why the clan leader stopped them.
-Heâs that crazy about training?
-Shh. If you make eye contact with him, he will drag us to do a hundred and seventy hours of training a week.
-H-How is that possible…
-I heard he didnât even cry when he was born, but he does whenever he suffers muscle or internal energy loss.
-Iâve even heard rumors that he broke up with his lover because he was afraid of losing muscles and internal energy.
-I donât want to train that hard! I became a hunter to make money!
âUmm. Now that I think about it, I didnât help at all.â
[âCat of Lava and Magmaâ is bursting into tears!]
âWhy are you crying?â
[Sob sob sob!]
âIn any case, I have to do it.â
Even if he didnât want to, he had to do it for his goal. Hwang Gyeongryong would be more upset anyway if Choi Yeonseung hid this out of worry. It would be best to tell him!
***
The mansion grounds had all types of facilities.
Choi Yeonseung entered one of themâa training groundâand found a huge ring-like space. He could immediately feel the powerful magic power.
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ is surprised to see âOtherworldâ magic!]
-Why are you surprised? Is it a difficult magic to use?
[The âCat of Lava and Magmaâ says that it isnât that itâs difficult to use. However, it was made by the constellations and is also popular among them. It says it just didnât expect it to be used here.]
Otherworld magic. Some constellations initially made it to train and entertain their subordinates. However, it was so useful that other constellations followed suit. Soon, it became a trend. After going inside, they entered a virtual space where?they could take damage but remain completely uninjured when they leave!
-There are many constellations on Earth, so maybe they told their household members?
âDid you learn this from a constellation?â
âHuh? What are you saying? Constellation?â
Hwang Gyeongryong was warming up when Choi Yeonseungâs question puzzled him.
âThat Otherworld magic.â
âThatâs just common magic, dude, but… The constellations likely passed it on. You donât know how dark they are inside.â
Hwang Gyeongryongâs face showed hostility toward the constellations. He had heard and seen many things about constellations while rising to his current position, leaving him no choice but to distrust them.
âUmm. I am also a constellation.â
Choi Yeonseung felt as if he had been stabbed for no reason.
âYou probably donât know why we use this magic.â
Choi Yeonseung replied, âWhy are you treating me like a country bumpkin? Arenât you training your subordinates to prepare for war?â
â… What are you talking about? No! Dude, itâs for sports!â
Hwang Gyeongryong shouted, seemingly dumbfounded.
âWhat sport? Do you play soccer here?â
âI donât know why you keep saying such strange things, but no. Iâm talking about a hunter sport.â
Hwang Gyeongryong flicked his fingers, and a hologram unfolded and played a video. In the video, several hunters were fiercely competing against each other.
