Monday, 8 a.m.
Hunter Management Bureau Crack Management 1 Team.
A man had a troubled look on his face as he received the incoming call.
"How could you say that today? If you had told me late last night, I would have prepared for you at work......... You know I have to leave for Gangnam Station at 9 o'clock, so why are you doing this? Real."
I'm sorry. I got a call from Icarus Guild this morning. If you'd like to apply to another team......... Oh, come to think of it, it's my intern day. I think you can ask an intern for a favor. You're assigned to...….
Assistant manager Kim Doo-hwi, who has been working for four years this year.
The heat burst at the words of the general affairs team staff who heard over the phone.
However, he could not take a bath, so he calmed down as much as he could.
No, I was going to tell you.
"Kidding! How can you leave it to an intern who came to work today! You don't even know where the copier is....... Hello? Hello!"
Click.
The line was cut off.
Kim Doo-hwi quickly pressed the redial button.
I only heard a phone call and the general affairs officer didn't answer the phone.
At that moment, Kim Doo-hwi could feel the accident was stopped.
"How do I prepare for the meeting by 10 a.m. That's so mean."
Crack Management Team 1 once a month.
Guilds in consultation with Hunter Management Bureau were requested to cooperate with the management by setting up zones in charge of class B or higher that occurred or occurred across the countrywide.
The Great Crack Zone Allocation Meeting, originally scheduled for Tuesday, was abruptly moved up to 10 a.m. today.
"It's the Icarus guild of all people."
If it was another middle-aged guild.
I would have asked for your understanding, and went on a business trip to Gangnam.
Icarus Guild, one of the top three in Korea, couldn't do that.
But I can't cancel my business trip just because of that.
The business trip to Gangnam was also an important issue.
"Hello."
"Huh?"
When I hear a low voice and turn my head.
A man standing 180 centimeters tall was easily over.
Thanks to his broad shoulders, he is as fit as an actor.
Besides, his face was not as handsome as a sculpture, but he must have been a handsome standing man.
"Who..."?"
"My name is Lee Do-joon, who will be working as an intern for a month from today."
Only then did Kim Doo-hwi nod as if he knew.
"Ah! The intern who was supposed to come today."
Kim Doo-hwi smiled.
He got up and approached Dojun.
said with a pat on the shoulder.
"You're in the first-place department. Congratulations."
The crack management team 1 was literally a place where work broke out.
Even two bodies were likely to be lacking, as they often had to work overtime and even protocol for noble hunters, which was too much for one employee to handle.
"I'm supposed to teach you this and that, but I can't help it because I'm so busy right now. Please sit here and get used to the atmosphere of the office first. I'm in a hurry to do something, so...…."
I finished preparing for the meeting before 9:00.
I had to leave for Gangnam station right away.
Kim Doo-hwi immediately began printing materials for the meeting.
And at the same time, I called the section chief.
"Excuse me, sir. It's two. I'm sorry I'm on vacation. Something just came up and......... right? As expected, you didn't leave Jeju Island yet, did you? Oh, no. It's not that big a deal. I'll see you tomorrow then."
The manager who went on vacation to Jeju Island has not even left for Seoul yet.
The general manager was in charge of the meeting, and Kim Doo-hwi was in charge of the assistance.
Today, both of them are gone.
"Excuse me...... Mr. Kim Do-joon? Oh, no. Lee Do-joon."
"Yes."
Kim Doo-hwi, who thought it would not be too difficult to just read the meeting data as it was because he was reviewing the progress of the existing anti-crack management and punitive measures without any special matters.
"May I ask you a favor?"
I decided to gamble.
***
a small meeting room located on the eighth floor of the Hunter Administration Bureau
At a round table for about 20 people.
There was a bunch of meeting materials in each seat.
A beam is being fired from a beam projector suspended from the ceiling onto the blackboard in the conference room.
The screen on the PPT that is open in the laptop appears on the blackboard as a big screen.
Dojun pressed down on the remote control and checked that the screen automatically went over.
I looked at the contents in PPT.
Cracks of Class B or higher located in Seoul.
In other words, the distribution chart and location of the large crack are detailed.
In addition, representative monsters appearing in each crack and guild names in charge of the cracks appeared. The Icarus guild was responsible for eight B-level and five A-levels.
In the case of S-class, few were found, and even if they appeared, little remained because the operation team was formed to carry out the punitive action.
The chief and I apologize for not being able to attend, and you can get our signatures on the list of Hunters present. And just read what's on the PPT. The most important thing is to please the Hunters. Every time every one of you comes in, you just say hello...….
Recall what Assistant Manager Kim Doo-hwi said.
Smoothed
Dojun glanced at his wristwatch.
We have about 10 minutes left until 10 o'clock, the start of the meeting.
Come to think of it, I noticed that there were no refreshments or drinks on the table.
'Should I get you a drink or something?'
***
an iron fist
Ten people entering the small chamber.
They were hunters of Icarus guilds.
Kang Min-hyuk, a class S hunter and guild leader, frowned at the empty small meeting room.
It's almost ten o'clock, but there was no management staff.
Even if I think it's because I changed the date of the meeting urgently.
It was ridiculous for both the chief and the deputy to be away.
"You're a little late. I'm sorry."
a voice heard from behind
Kang Min-hyuk looked back, kicking his tongue.
It froze on the spot.
"Lord, the officer in charge......... how can I...…."
"Long time no see. Kang Min-hyuk Hunter."
Dojun smiled.
"If you're here, could you sign the list first?"
***
Meanwhile, Gangnam Station.
Beep.
The bell rings.
Take your smartphone out of your pocket and check the sender.
Kim Du-hwi, who confirmed that it was marked [chief], answered the phone.
"Yes. Chief."
Are you in a meeting? Can you answer the phone?
"Oh, you heard. Um... well...First of all, I'm at Gangnam Station. Why do you have to deal with RPS issues?."
There was a moment of silence.
Go, Gangnam Station? What about the meeting?
Kim Doo-hwi gulped down his dry saliva.
And he said, pressing hard on the forehead with his fingers.
"I left it to a new recruit for now. There's no big problem because there's no particular change and you just have to read what's on the PPT..."
Freshman? What are you talking about? New recruits come in July.
"Hey, intern's new......hahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...."
once again a visit of silence
Hey, you crazy bastard! You gave it to an intern? Are you out of your mind? Kang Minhyuk said he's coming today, but it's not enough for us. I just got back to work today, and I'm gonna......... wow...... I'm going crazy. Really. No, no. Whoo.
"I'm sorry, but there was really no other way. I asked the manager of the next team and he said he had an urgent business to attend to."
Yeah. What's wrong with you? It's because of you who suddenly pulled the date of the meeting. Anyway, report the progress when you get back to the office later.
Kim Doo-hwi breathed a long sigh.
***
The meeting went smoothly.
In fact, it seems that Dojun unilaterally announced his PPT, not to mention a meeting.m. meeting.
In any case, in a solemn atmosphere, nobody took their eyes off the screen and Do-joon, shining without chatting or yawning.
"......and thus imputed, the distribution ratio."
Dojun paused for a moment.
lying on a table where hunters sit
Fruit drinks were left untouched.
People were listening with straight-up back, with a nervous look on their faces.
"You should at least drink and listen. I bought it as much as I could."
At the words, people looked at Kang Min-hyuk's countenance.
I didn't know why the top 10 S-hunter was so embarrassed by one of his interns at the Hunter Management Bureau, but he was keeping it to himself.
'Drink.'
Kang Min-hyuk raised his chin and put silent pressure on his hunters.
People opened the lid of the fruit drink that lay in front of them at the same time as if they had made a board and began to gulp it down.
"But I heard the original meeting was tomorrow?"
"Well, it is."
"Of course, you've moved your schedule to today, but......... Call Assistant Manager Kim Doo-hwi later to say sorry. I was sorry to tell you that morning."
***
It wasn't until 2 p.m. that Kim Doo-hwi was able to return to the office.
I picked up the file on the meeting list.
I checked that the signature had been received.
Dojun was sitting down and looking through the instructions the interns were learning.
"......do you think it's worked out well? They're all signed."
Then the office phone rang.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Assistant Manager Kim Doo-hwi of Crack Management Team 1."
Hello, I'm Kang Minhyuk, the Icarus Guild Hunter.
Surprised, Kim Doo-hwi rises from his seat and stoops down to receive it.
"Yes! Mr. Guild."
It's nothing but......... for today's meeting.
Because of the meeting.
The word stuck in Kim Doo-hwi's head like a dagger.
The intern named Lee Do-joon who came today must have made a mistake.
Otherwise, you can't call me directly.
It was the moment when Kim Doo-hwi was about to start a conversation, saying, "I'm sorry."
"Crime..."
I'm sorry.
"......yes?"
I'm calling to say I'm sorry for unilaterally notifying you that I'm changing the meeting schedule today.
Did you hear it wrong?
Kim Doo-hwi doubted his ears.
"Oh, no. We're really sorry that I and the chief couldn't attend today's meeting."
After a while, Kim Doo-hwi, who finished the call, tilted his head and muttered.
"What did this gentleman eat wrong? I've never done this before. Oh, Lee Do-joon. How did today's meeting go?"
Dojun said.
"We proceeded as you said. The meeting ended quickly."
"Is everything all right?"
"Yes."
Kim Doo-hwi breathed a sigh of relief.
"If you've given this shit, it's It was a letter of apology....... Thank you."
said Dojun with a grin.
"Good thing."
***
"Welcome, Father."
To Dojun, who came home from work.
Seol Yoon-hee ran to take her jacket and smiled.
"How was your job?"
Dojun murmured as he sat on the sofa.
"Today, too, well...."
It was a peaceful day.
