tirili.

[Director of the Awakened Persons Management Bureau]

Kim Mi-so checked the screen and answered the phone right away.

Yeah.

[Did you see the news?]

Iknow, right. Jae-eul reports threats to South Korea, but only fires missiles at Japan."

[I'm not joking right now. You have to come to the Blue House right now.]

"Why me?"

[I don't feel like joking.]

Kim Mi-so frowned.

"I don't feel like joking either."

Does this person still think he is the head of the returnee management team?

[After, sorry. But the situation is urgent.]

"It's easy to cross the line once, cross it twice. I am not in a position to come and go, and I have no reason to respond."

[Smile, no, Vice President Kim.]

"Cut it off. Our mercenary company only provides dungeon-related services and does not participate in the war of mankind."

Kim Mi-so hung up the phone.

"Are you the chief?"

okay.

Kim Mi-so laughed out loud after making an impression for a long time to see if the fever was spreading even after hanging up on the phone.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

It's a habit of her that comes out when she gets too angry. Laugh out loud and take care of your heart

"Huh, this person sneaks over the construction work."

There must be such a person.

It's like a junior who secretly speaks half-talking, respectful, and then goes to people.

The director now crosses between public and private.

It crossed the line drawn by Kim Mi-so.

As a level 7 guild, the guardian guild is only responsible for handling 7-star dungeons created throughout Seoul.

North Korea's threat of war?

That is a matter for the South Korean government to deal with using the power of the Ministry of National Defense, not for private companies.

PMC.

private military organization.

The military power and manpower of the mercenary company should only be used for dimensional industry activities and counter-monster countermeasures.

That is the usual law.

The same goes for Korea.

The guild's force should only be used against monsters.

But are you bringing in a private mercenary company to a meeting that is supposed to be a countermeasure against North Korean provocations?

It is a burden that exceeds the duty of the guardian guild.

"I need to draw a line right now."

It is neat if we take care of each other's duties and rights.

But, as always, there is a vague expectation of the other person.

There's no obligation to drive everyone in the neighborhood because our car is good.

'The boss is not a rental car.'

It's hard to see Park Soo-ho's power and the Guardian Guild's great power trying to free-ride for security.

It was necessary to react a little calmly to this situation.

uh? boss. An official notice has been sent from the Blue House."

Kim Mi-so laughed as she read it.

"A Strategic Advisor? Reject it."

Are you just inviting me to ask for advice?

The stomach looked clear.

You probably want to escort.

At that time, Sojin Lee tilted her head and asked.

Kim Mi-so's personality makes it worth asking for a huge price for this, but it was strange to refuse it with a single blow.

"Can't we just listen and get something?"

"No, I don't get anything this time."

"North Korea's provocations have always happened anyway. I don't think there's going to be a war anyway... ."

The work is small and the rewards are large.

Kim Mi-so shook her head at Lee So-jin's opinion.

"No, I do nothing. That's the deal."

Yes?

get nothing

Getting something doesn't necessarily lead to profit. It's like having a debt that you have to pay back anytime.

Isn't it neat?

'No compensation, no obligation.'

If there is anything to be gained by not cooperating with anything, it is freedom.

"Should I convince you?"

no. Anyway, the vice president will figure it out."

Sojin Lee calmly covered the question.

Seeing her like that, Miso Kim gently returned to her original smile.

Sojin is not good at seeing the big picture, but she does her job well.

"Whether it's the Blue House or the Ministry of National Defense, we take all requests."

Yep.

It seems like he wants to make a false appearance by intervening Park Soo-ho... .

That won't happen.

tyring.

When I opened it in the text notification, it was Dongsoo Han.

[Arrival in Daegu.]

While taking good care of Park Soo-ho, I asked him to report on an hourly basis even if there was nothing special.

[On the way to eat makchang.]

Han Dong-soo is doing a great job.

*

burleung.

The Pyeongri guild respectfully took care of Park Soo-ho and Han Dong-soo, who suddenly came down.

The two people sitting side by side in the backseat of the car were heading to Daegu's best makchang restaurant.

"What cell phone are you wearing?"

Han Dong-soo let out a soft sigh.

"Even if you take your cell phone out of your inventory and walk around, I won't do this."

With that said, Suho took out a sleeping cell phone from his inventory.

Dilly Lilly Lilly.

Seeing the constant notifications of missed calls and messages, Suho puts it back into his inventory.

"I think it's broken."

"Ugh, I'll just follow you well. It's me, because that's what it's all about.

Mercenary is a very stressful profession.

It is quite natural for large-scale guilds, clans, and individual mercenaries to wear a manager who will take care of their daily life.

In that sense, is it okay to appoint an ordinary person as the manager of the champion and the head of the guardian guild, Park Soo-ho?

'It should be, but .'

I can't leave the kids who go to Park Soo-ho's Seongmi alone.

I didn't know if I would have them all awakened first and forcibly burn the bus to make it a U-class.

A U-class manager, a U-class driver.

'I'd rather do it myself.'

Anyway, it is burdensome to take on the attack squad due to his personality.

The leadership style doesn't match.

Rather, it is comfortable and good to just follow the number one person without any troublesome thoughts.

"Are you here?"

"Yes, this is the best restaurant. Come in."

Seats were already set up as we had already made a reservation.

don't support

The three of them sat at the round table and greeted each other while listening to the sound of the makchang being cooked on the fire.

"I would like to formally greet you. This is Lee Han-ri, Vice President of the Pyeongri Guild."

"Hey, why is Vice President ."

Dong-soo asked curiously.

After all, a middle-aged man came out and asked me to attach a guide, and I was puzzled, but he said he was the vice president.

"Haha, shouldn't I have to take it with me?"

"Are you, Vice President Lee Han-ri?"

Yep.

"If you have any business, you can tell me quickly. My brother doesn't like going round and round."

There is not.

"Hmm."

"If there is, I just want to get to know you."

Han Dong-soo looked at Park Soo-ho at the vice president's honesty.

"My brother was so leisurely ."

"Is this all over?"

Yeah?

Looking back, Suho's gaze was completely on the sizzling makchang.

"Eating the intestines is so fresh."

In my long wild life, I have never eaten organ meat.

"The makchang is the best in Daegu. Okay, it's all cooked, so let's try it."

Suho picked up a makjang, put it on the stick, and put it in his mouth.

Suho, who was savoring the chewy texture, asked.

"How do you not smell like poop?"

"Ah, brother. You must have washed it well."

When the two's gazes reached Lee Han-ri, he smiled awkwardly and said.

"If you eat a lot, you will get it."

" ."

" ."

At that time, the aunt who was listening in the kitchen scolded me.

"What bullshit! Our house doesn't smell at all!"

"I don't."

Lee Han-ri quickly changed words, and Suho asked with a grin.

"Aren't you drinking?"

"Am. There is."

Ordered a drink and turned the glass.

cuckoo.

"I don't have work today, so let's have a drink."

"Yes, sir."

Lee Han-ri's face brightened.

After all, there's nothing like drinking to make friends.

Dongsu shook his head and sent a text message.

[I'm eating makchang. taste fine. 4 stars.]

Blue House emergency response meeting room.

"The Guardian Guild is denying all requests."

"Hmm."

"Huh! They are hungry."

"The state needs it, but how can an individual refuse it!"

The president intervened, looking at the ministers who were each indignant.

"We cannot force individuals to make sacrifices for the country."

"Huh."

Park Soo-ho is neither a soldier, nor a public official, nor a member of parliament.

He is simply the president of a private military enterprise, a mercenary company.

"It might be more troublesome if you try to cover it easily."

I was just trying to add Park Soo-ho to the strategy meeting.

Because that alone has a huge effect.

The probability of targeting South Korea among neighboring countries that North Korea has provoked from across the country is lowered.

Park Soo-ho is scary.

The wolf was running around, so I tried to take a picture with the tiger.

The Guardian Guild rejected it with a single blow.

This means that Suho City only wants to fulfill its role as a level 7 guild.

"Chief of Management."

"Yes, President."

"Is there no room for negotiation?"

" I want it to be difficult."

"Hmm."

Unfortunately, the president had no choice but to continue the meeting.

"Let's leave out the Guardian Guild and discuss countermeasures for this incident. Manager Kim."

"Yes, President."

"Let the briefing begin."

Yep.

A picture of a person wearing a North Korean military uniform appeared on the large project screen.

"Lee Joong-man. I am the captain of the North Korean special forces."

It is a little different from the Korean Awakening Administration.

Awakened North Koreans are more strictly managed and are receiving intensive ideological education.

"The current precarious regime in North Korea begins with the conflict between Ri Jung-man and Kim Jong-un."

Taking control of the military is power, and it has been a means of maintaining power.

However, variables such as Awakened and Superpowers emerged.

The power of the awakening beyond guns was the most threatening factor for the dictatorship of North Korea, so it was thoroughly controlled and governed.

However, in the last 10 years, conflict has arisen again.

"You mean that Kim Jong-un, who felt a sense of crisis, is trying to unite the party in an atmosphere of war with the outside world?"

That's right.

Dissatisfied voices erupted here and there at the words of Director Kim.

"No, if there is a crisis in the North on a fictional day, is it the South's fault?"

"Let's wipe them out right now."

"Uh-huh! Are you saying that we should ignore the Treaty of Peace for Humanity?"

A mutual non-aggression pact negotiated to prevent disputes between all countries after the cataclysm.

"Well, the North Koreans break it every time, but what ."

"Isn't it actually a pact that is not famous?"

Not too long ago, wars between mankind were waged.

Although there is a disagreement that the conflict between countries has been overlooked, hasn't there been a fight between Park Soo-ho and Japan?

It would have ended unilaterally, but if it had continued for a long time, it would have been criticized worldwide.

"What is the opinion of the Minister of Defense?"

The defense minister, who had been silent, opened his mouth.

"Actually, it is difficult to take action on something. All we have to do is to be fully prepared and listen 24 hours a day in case of a missile attack from the enemy."

North Korea called it a neighbor and launched a wide-area provocation.

The intention is to seal the internal crisis into a conflict with the outside.

The seven neighboring allied powers of China and Russia, Japan and South Korea are all tense.

The current precarious Kim Jong-un regime is in such a precarious situation that it may even commit suicide, like when you die or I die.

Due to recent food shortages and starvation, it has become clear that Lee Jung-man's special forces are up to something.

"Damn, President."

Something?

"It's a call from the North."

The president has been contacted directly through the North Korean hotline.

President Ryu Dam picked up the big phone.

I hoped that the sound coming out of this wasn't just a declaration of war.

"This is President Ryu Dam."

toothpaste.

Over the not-so-good phone call, the other party's hard voice could be heard.

[Come, only Ri Joong.]

" ."

Not Kim Jung-woon?
