Episode 414

No matter how much the banquet was, only a select few were able to talk privately with the president, Kim Seok-han. And it was no different from Shin Kang-yoon, the head of the Shin-oh family. Kim Seok-han was also a difficult opponent for him.

It was because the weight class of the Shin-Oh family, which stood out in only one field, ‘Hunter’, and the Shin Sung Group, which had an overall influence on society, were different.

“...It’s an honor to arrange a place like this separately.”

However, now there is only one step left to the position of ‘head of the Hunter Association’, comparable to Kim Seok-han. Shin Kang-yoon said something he didn’t mean to say and was able to bow his head with manners.

“I’m not good at noisy places. I’m sorry you must have been enjoying the banquet for a while.”

Shin Kang-yoon held the cup Kim Seok-han was pouring with both hands while smiling. Slowly- The hot drink filled the glass and a slight silence filled the empty space in the room.

Shin Kang-yoon knew the meaning of this strange pressure coming from the quiet silence. This scene and this breath. And the next word that followed was a promise.

“You seem very busy these days. There will be more people helping you.”

Recently, Shin Kang-yoon has increased the size of the Shin-O family by merging forces that will be on his side. It was not the time for Shin Kang-yoon to cover the cold water with the noise leaking out from inside. If he was friendly to the Shin-O family and had even a little bit of a position, he would somehow incorporate it into his own power.

The goal is, of course, the position of the next Hunter Association president, which will soon become vacant.

“Seeing that you were busy running around before the election even started, the years felt so mean.”

Of course, Kim Seok-han was aware of Shin Kang-yoon’s intentions.

“It seems like just yesterday that you visited our mansion holding the hand of the former head of the family...”

“Isn’t the president still too correct to blame the time? Nothing has changed since then.”

Just a few words that even felt cold, sparks flew. There was such a loud silence in the world.

“yes. On the other hand, you have changed too much. I didn’t expect that kid... to have such great ambitions.”

“I just didn’t show it.”

Kim Seok-han smiled calmly, saying, “That’s right,” with a look that took a hit at Shin Kang-yoon’s words that pierced him like a sharp thorn.

I said this around the corner, but how could I not know? Shin Kang-yoon was a man like a wild wolf. No matter how much you try to control it, you can’t calm down the innate wild nature.

“okay. How can I not know that heart? I’ve been watching you all along, but I can’t. ...You are a very good person.”

Kim Seok-han looked at Shin Kang-yoon. And then heh heh- he smiled kindly and drank the glass. Then, after praising the taste of the alcohol in the cup, he added words.

“He is a person who will make a mark in history because he has huge ambition and endless potential.”

As soon as Kim Seok-han finished the praise, he put down his glass with a thunk as if declaring war.

“As proof of that, didn’t you show the determination to even drop the father from the position of head of the family and even throw away your child if you were born as an F-class?”

Then, instead of raising luck for the main topic, they bet on a head-to-head match. Even Shin Kang-yoon’s expression hardened and he showed a clear look of bewilderment.

“...what do you want to say?”

“There is no need to sharpen the blade already. But in the eyes of this old man, you are too dangerous.”

Shin Kang-yoon’s eyes trembled with anger. In my heart, I want to get out of this place right away, but the only thing I regret is myself. How can Shin Kang-yoon, who is about to face the great task of electing the head of the Hunter Association, turn Kim Seok-han into an enemy?

“Would you be satisfied with becoming the president of the Hunter Association? What kind of seat should I sit to satisfy that hunger?”

On the other hand, Kim Seok-han was keeping Shin Kang-yoon in check for his own reasons. Kim Seok-han had seen Shin Kang-yoon since childhood and knew him. Shin Kang-yoon, seen by Seok-han Kim, was a person who would consider the position of the head of the Hunter Association as a starting point, not a destination.

“The problem is... it’s not that endless desire. Even if you swallow it all, if you can just digest it, there will be no problem. But... you are overconfident in yourself.”

Each of Kim Seok-han’s words was an attack that pierced Shin Kang-yoon’s flesh and took his bones. However, there was another word that marked the culmination of the story close to non-geom.

“Haven’t you already made the wrong decision? The proof is your son...shin Yuseong.”

Kim Seok-han looked at Shin Kang-yoon and smiled with a very satisfied smile, as if checkingmate in a long game of chess.

“If the fact that the head of the Shin-O family abandoned Shin Yoo-seong spreads to the world, who will believe the eyes of the president of the association? You can’t expect a big deal from a group that is full of suspicion.”

The word cut was like a magic spell that made Amy quiet. How convenient would it be to listen to him while only putting his hand on the scabbard?

‘...but this guy.’

However, if there is one thing that Ryujin points out, Amy’s face is oddly similar to someone else’s.

“Hey, can I just bring the food I cooked earlier? It doesn’t taste good when it cools down...”

Maybe because of that, when Amy made a strange request, Ryujin couldn’t help but waved her hand at it.

“...just bring me the plate. Don’t be foolish. Because my sword is faster than the sound.”

“Oh yes...”

Amy clicked her tongue and brought her plate.

“Oh, it’s been a long time since I’ve been on holiday, so what’s this... I can’t even play...”

Then Ryujin grumbled as if he wanted to hear it, chewing on the buffet food he had put on his plate.

Swoop-

But maybe it was because it was awkward to keep eating alone, Amy looked at Ryujin and started talking.

“But don’t you eat that? This is delicious...”

“...”

But this time, the reaction that came back was ignored. Amy was talking to herself like that or not.

“I once missed the homework given by the academy. It was an assignment given by a professor, but when I lied about losing the file I had completed, he asked for my ID so that he would find it for me?”

“...”

“But I said that I couldn’t tell you because I forgot my pocket ID because I was afraid my lies would be discovered, so he was very worried and asked me to go with him to the center!”

“...”

Ryujin overlooked Amy.

I was mistaken in thinking that just ignoring it would make it quiet.

“I repeated that three more times, and later the lie became an even bigger lie and an even bigger lie...”

Amy talked to herself for about half an hour. If Ryujin was the quietest person in the academy, Amy was like the most talkative person in the world.

“...because! In the end, it was an incident that got more and more scolded! But do you know what the moral of this story is?”

“What the hell does it take to make you shut up?”

In addition, the threat to slash Amy didn’t work, as if she thought she had become close with Ryujin after talking for 30 minutes.

“Listen to the lesson! It’s an important story!”

Rather, Amy got angry and tried to teach Ryujin.

“You can’t cover bad things with bad things. There is nothing that can be solved with crime!”

After a tremendous speech, Amy naturally stood up from her seat. Then, with a long sigh, he tried to leave the table.

“So, surrender as much as you can and don’t do any more bad things.”

It was such a natural development that even Ryujin could be fooled. I even thought a bit about whether it would be better to let go of such a noisy person.

However, Ryujin couldn’t let Amy go, even to prevent Amy from reporting it.

“sit down.”

“yes.”

At least until this banquet was over, he had to hold on to Amy.
