Return To Level Up

Chapter 61

The explosion of this new type dungeon served as an opportunity to greatly increase the influence of small and medium-sized guilds.

In particular, the guilds who went out to prevent the monsters that popped out of the dungeon exploded in the consciousness of being comrades who risked their lives to fight each other, and even formed a guild union.

Of course, we haven’t taken any administrative steps yet.

However, it was also something that would happen in an instant if there was even one central point.

In fact, it was a group that should have been formed earlier.

The most effective way to get out of the tyranny of large corporations and giant guilds is to respond together with the strength of the majority.

Public opinion was on the side of small and medium guilds.

No matter how much they tried to control the media and form opposition, what happened this time was too great, and the work itself was almost impossible because it was publicly disclosed in the early stages of the accident.

And if public opinion was formed in this way, no matter how much the Awakening Management Office was on the side of large corporations, there was no help.

It’s like assigning a newtype dungeon and then getting a written promise of responsibility.

One of the dungeons that exploded this time was the union of ten guilds, and those ten guilds were literally destroyed.

The guild property was stolen from the Awakening Management Office as a liability cost, and an intensive investigation was conducted to avoid any possibility of extorting assets with hidden funds.

Although the monster was completely blocked and the human damage was concentrated on the Awakened, that did not mean that there was no material damage at all.

No, rather, the material damage was considerable.

The point where the dungeon breaker stopped the monster was quite far from the dungeon.

As the monster moved there, it destroyed not only the rice fields but also the buildings, so the damage was quite large.

And the damage suffered by the dungeon breaker in the process of stopping the monster was also a problem.

Because many Awoken were wounded. Of course, no one died, but it was self-evident that the treatment would cost a significant amount.

The Awakening Administration decided to solve all the costs and the bounty to be paid to the Dungeon Breaker with the assets of the ten guilds.

So, can ten guilds survive?

Most of the Awakened members of the guild were dead and their property was stolen.

Still, this one was very easy to troubleshoot. Anyway, if you rob ten guilds, pay a bounty to the dungeon breaker, and pay the victims, it’s a neat ending.

The other side, on the other hand, had a very serious problem.

Once there were too many entangled organizations.

More than a hundred small and medium-sized guilds were involved in this matter.

Among them, there were many places where the guild had only 20 people.

And it was the Unyang group that had to take responsibility.

Naturally, the Unyang Group was not a place that even the Awakened Management Agency could easily touch.

Small and medium guilds did much more damage than Dungeon Breakers. However, despite taking the damage, he recklessly blocked the monster.

Therefore, the amount of damage or compensation to be paid was considerable.

However, the Unyang group tried to move under the water and somehow reduce the amount of compensation and damage.

In the process, I used up the number of stars.

The Unyang group procrastinated in such a way. They knew all too well that in a battle like this, the one who has the time always wins.

Rather than Dungeon Breaker, small and medium-sized guilds were thirsty for money, but when things went like this, everyone was in a difficult situation.

The Unyang group secretly approached the guild in such a difficult situation and tried to convince them with money.

That was the cheapest way.

Their feat seemed almost to be successful.

Until Myung In-hyuk, who was monitoring the situation under Kang Ha-jin’s instructions, reported it.

* * *

Kim Kyung-hoon, who is in charge of responding to the small and medium-sized guilds of Unyang Group, headed to the meeting place with some documents and money.

The person I was dealing with today was Choi Jun-hyeok, the master of High Class, a relatively large guild among small and medium-sized guilds.

So today was very important.

If only this person succeeds, it will be relatively easy to convince the remaining small guilds in the future.

I’ve been working all over the place, and now all that’s left is to harvest.

The amount determined today will be the basis for the amount to be paid to the remaining guilds in the future.

First of all, there will be no future money that is greater than the money given today. The guild you meet today is the biggest and the one that suffered the most damage.

In fact, Kim Kyung-hoon saw that the situation was almost over.

What was left was not the guilds, but compensation for real material damage.

Of course, that was not something the Unyang group would pay alone. Isn’t it natural to share payments with the government? as it has been so far.

“Tax is what you pay for it.”

Kim Kyung-hoon, who arrived at the meeting place, went inside without hesitation.

He used to be a high-class Japanese restaurant, so as soon as he saw him, the waitress took care of him and led him inside.

The opponent came out first and waited. Kyung-Hoon Kim took it for granted too.

“Hello. This is Kim Kyung-hoon.”

As soon as Kim Kyung-hoon saw his opponent, he bowed politely. And he held out his business card.

Choi Jun-hyeok looked at the business card he had received and stiffened slightly.

Seeing that reaction, Kyunghoon Kim smiled.

The title of Unyang Future Strategy Director was stamped on his business card in gold.

Judging by the reaction of the other party, he seemed to know that he was one of the direct members of the group.

It seemed like things would be better today. “Come on, let’s sit down. Hey, start here.”

When I asked the waitress to bring me food, the food kept coming in, carefully cooked with the finest ingredients.

Next to her, a female waitress knelt down and served her meal.

Kim Kyung-hoon enjoyed the situation very naturally, while Choi Jun-hyeok couldn’t hide his awkwardness.

Soon after the meal was over, the real conversation began.

“The reason we have to meet and deal with things like this is because, as you know, we are very sensitive to noise issues. Do you understand?”

“I understand. I know him well.”

“Then it will be easier to talk about. We are willing to support high-class guilds both physically and mentally in the future. So, thank you for your cooperation. This is a one-time payment. How about putting out the fire first and proceeding with the conversation slowly?”

Kim Kyung-hoon placed the white envelope on the table and swung it.

You will probably repeat what you said several times in the future. A small guild with a small number of guild members would send subordinates to deal with it, but a guild with a certain size planned to manage it directly.

This was also necessary for the future.

If a small and medium-sized guild union is formed, it will be able to exert a powerful influence there.

Choi Jun-hyeok looked at Kim Kyung-hoon who was looking at him with a confident expression on his face.

If it had been you at this time yesterday, you would have passed on those words.

But the self I am today is different from the self I was yesterday.

He pushed the white envelope back in front of Kim Kyung-hoon.

“Can’t get it.”

Kim Kyung-hoon’s eyes were as bright as a fire.

“You mean you’re turning down the offer?”

“I have no intention of making noise and I have no intention of making a profit with this. You just get the same reward as Dungeon Breaker.”

Kim Kyung-hoon’s expression distorted.

“Dungeon Breaker? You’re not mistaken for the same class as there right now, are you?”

“Of course not. The same reward can be shared by the guilds who have gone out for luck this time. I think that’s the minimum. Because we have a lot of dead people.”

“Did he just die? Do you know how many Awokens of Unyang have died this time?”

“I know. Speaking of which, will you give sufficient compensation to the families of those Awoken who have died?”

Kim Kyung-hoon’s expression became even more distorted.

“We do that for ourselves. I don’t think it’s something to be concerned about.”

“no. From now on, you have to be careful. I was asked by the dead Awoken family. We decided to move together.”

“I beg your pardon?”

Kim Kyung-hoon’s eyes were as bright as a fire.

However, measures for the bereaved family were also being pursued. Of course, it was also planned to drastically reduce the burden on the company through under-the-ground work.

It also receives some government support.

But when it comes out like this, it hurts. From the moment these issues come to the surface, public opinion will start to stir.

“Whoa. How much do you want?”

“Yes?”

“You are very good at negotiating. Call the amount you want. Of course, it is a condition of giving up everything you are doing now. No, you’ll have to stop them from getting together at all. So take that into account and call the amount. How much?”

Choi Jun-hyeok looked directly at Kim Kyung-hoon and said.

“Please take the lead in the abolition of the dungeon quota system.”

Kim Kyung-hoon looked at him blankly.

I hope you can say something like that.

“Does it look so funny now that I keep going out that way?”

Kim Kyung-hoon snorted.

“Ha! That’s amazing. Abolition of quotas? Do you think that would be possible?”

Kim Kyung-hoon got up from his seat.

“Once we know that we have different opinions, let’s stop here for today. I’ll get back to you later.”

Kim Kyung-hoon went out without hearing an answer.

However, Choi Joon-hyuk was not agitated at all. Then he pulled out his phone and texted somewhere.

It was a report on today’s meeting.

* * *

After having a meal with Hwang Soo-young and a drink, the relationship between Dungeon Breaker and the Guardian became a little closer.

Of course, that was only because Ha-jin Kang felt it, and in fact, the two guilds were very close from the beginning.

Although Hwang Soo-young’s intentions were significantly involved in creating such an atmosphere.

And slowly, the Guardians began to recruit Awoken in earnest.

The most important thing to look for when selecting a guild member is personality, but that doesn’t mean you can’t choose someone with poor skills or potential.

So, in the first place, Yoon Kyung-min and Myung In-hyeok checked their personality and filtered them out, and Kang Ha-jin decided to pick out the remaining people through an interview.

Actually, I was going to leave only people with basic skills, but Ha-jin Kang told me to bring them all in unconditionally, so I proceeded like that.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Thanks to this, the number of Awakened people who had to be interviewed was enormous.

And today was the interview day.

The interview location was the meeting room of the guild headquarters.

Ha-jin Kang, who arrived at the meeting room, saw the person who came first and was waiting and stopped walking.

“You came early.”

Hwang Soo-young and Jeong A-yeon rose from their seats almost at the same time and greeted Kang Ha-jin.

“What are you two doing here?”

“I came here to ask for help. You said you had a new guild member interview today?”

“Did you sang by Kyung-Min Yoon?”

The answer came from behind. “Yeah. I asked. I think we still lack experience in this area.”

Surely Hwang Soo-young or Jung A-yeon will have a lot of experience in that area.

Dungeon Breaker was constantly growing in size by accepting new guild members, and Hwang Soo-young was unconditionally interviewed for a guild member himself.

And there is no need to say A-Yeon Jung. As a senior in the A-market, how much interview experience do you have?

You probably have experience in conducting various types of interviews all over the world.

“I found out that both of them are really great. In fact, I wrote it down in the report, but I don’t think you saw it.”

At Yoon Kyung-min’s words, Kang Ha-jin remembered a pile of documents that Yoon Kyung-min handed over a few days ago.

I haven’t read half of them yet.

The more I looked at how many things were done, and the more I thought about it, the more I was surprised.

‘I knew I was good at my job, but…’

I didn’t know it would be this much.

Anyway, Yoon Kyung-min even posted the report, but I can’t say that I can’t do it now.

And I could fully understand why Yoon Kyung-min asked them for help.

“Then let’s do it together.”

Of course, I don’t know how much it will help.

Ha-jin Kang said that he would look into all applicants for a reason.

Sometimes appearances aren’t everything.

This time, as she checked the bracelet of obedience, she realized it desperately.

So, she re-checked everything she had overlooked so far one by one.

Concentrate enough to bring all your minds together.

And as a result, the proficiency of the peeping skill has risen significantly.

Today was the day to see the results properly.

Hwang Soo-young and Jeong A-yeon, Kang Ha-jin and Yoon Kyung-min sat in the interviewer’s seat.

Thus, the Guardian’s first interview with new guild members began.
