You Will Be Blessed If You Do Good Deeds¿-Chapter 181
Leila Lopez learned this information through the subordinate researcher she had used to drag Nam Sung-hee out last time.
For the researcher, it was actually a series of embarrassing events.
As soon as she suggested the NLE guild to Leila, who was looking for a new contractor, the guild leader, Lee Woon-gyeol, died.
And the culprit was Nam Sung-hee, the matchmaker and mother who recommended the guild!
The researcher was quite upset because she had recommended such a flawed business partner to her old boss.
So, in order to make up for this mistake, she dug deep into the case... ... and she said she detected a strange atmosphere within the Constitutional Court.
It was said that Nam Sung-hee possessed the item that Leila wanted, and that the Constitutional Court also wanted it.
If it was simply an item that Leila wanted, it wouldn’t have been strange information... ...
- There seems to be a foreign investor who wanted this item as a condition for investment. The higher-ups are also busy because he is scheduled to visit Korea next week.
That’s how the information the researcher brought flowed to me.
“So, you’re saying that the foreign investor is most likely Theo Yovanovitch?”
Leila nodded with a dark expression.
- I’m sure. You showed me Yovanovitch’s face a few days ago. It was the same face as the photo of the foreign investor that your subordinate showed me.
This, really.
I sat down at James Chen’s desk and tapped my fingers on the desk.
I never thought things would turn out like this.
However, despite my satisfaction, Leila’s face was dark.
- Of course, this alone doesn’t tell us whether Yovanovitch has power within the Hunter Association or if he’s simply trying to get investment.
It wasn’t surprising that Leila’s face hardened.
Theo Yovanovitch, whom I had been looking for, was in direct contact with the upper echelons of the Hunter Association, even though he was a Korean branch.
I felt Leila’s gaze watching me.
He looked worried that I might storm into the Hunter Association right now and cause trouble.
Since Leila, who still remains in the Hunter Association, would be in a difficult position if I decided to fight the Association.
- Even if we heard the information, we should be cautious and watch the situation first rather than moving rashly... ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) ... .
“Caution is not important right now, Master.”
While Leila was making excuses, James, who had been anxiously listening to the conversation from the side, intervened.
“The important thing is speed. We need to find out who Theo Yovanovic promised to invest with right now and drag Theo out. If you allow me, I will meet with the person in the Korean branch and go.”
Unlike Leila, James had already been kicked out of the Association, so he had nothing to fear from civil war or a fight.
He seemed very anxious because he had boasted that he would get the information first and then got the lead from Leila.
I ordered Leila, who was anxious because she was only concerned about her position, and James, who was anxious to run out and prove his loyalty.
“You both stay still.”
-That’s not me... ...
“I just... ... .”
“When did I ask for your opinions?”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
James bowed his head to me with a pale face.
Leila on the other end of the phone also remained silent.
I tapped James’ cheek with the end of my fan. Since it was on the other side of the camera, Leila would also be watching this scene clearly.
“Okay, you guys just do what I say.”
“Yes, yes! I’m sorry, I’m sorry... ... !”

James was about to fall to the ground and be forgiven.
-... ...
On the other hand, Leila on the other end of the video looked a little fed up with seeing James like that.
James’s attitude, which had become so blind to me, seemed incomprehensible.
I glanced at Leila Lopez.
Leila also felt the need to receive my magical power, but the effect of the solitude (蠱毒) was definitely decreasing due to the physical distance.
It seems that he didn’t particularly rely on the power of solitude to achieve his magic.
I guess I’ll have to subjugate him again soon.
‘By the way, Theo Yovanovic directly contacted the Korean Hunter Association... ... .’
I was lost in thought.
Did Orbis treat Nam Sung-hee as a word that could be easily used and thrown away because they could move the Korean Hunter Association without Nam Sung-hee?
In addition, the fact that Theo Yovanovic said he would come to Korea in person was a bit suspicious.
Could this be a trap?
‘No, this is thinking too deeply.’
Orbis knows that I have a relationship with James Chen, but they don’t know that I’m using Leila Lopez.
James Chen was officially kicked out of the Hunter’s Association in a very dishonorable manner.
So the people within the Hunter’s Association are reluctant to contact James, so it’s difficult to learn such internal information through James.
That’s why it was highly likely that even if Theo Yovanovitch contacted the Hunter’s Association directly, I thought there was no way for me to know.
In reality, if it weren’t for Leila, I wouldn’t have known.
‘If I think about it this way, I guess showing James to him appropriately worked.’
I already knew that this information would be passed on to Orbis from the moment I sent James Chen in front of Nam Sung-hee.
Since they were going to gather information about me anyway, I threw them bait that they would rush to.
And now that Theo Yovanovitch is coming to Korea in person, Orbis must have fallen for my trick... ... I guess.
‘Well... ... It’s hard to trust someone else to retrieve the item I gave to Nam Sung-hee.’
It’s an item that allows an ordinary person without magic to fight on equal terms as an A-class hunter.
There must have been many obstacles to retrieving it through someone else.
Theo Yovanovitch decided that it would be safest to move and retrieve it himself.
The story is easy then.
Thump, thump.
I patted James Chen on the head with my fan and laughed.
“Then I guess I’ll have to prepare to welcome the guests.”
***
Most people think of the Hunter Association as a gathering of superhumans.
After all, it’s a society where becoming a high-level power user is like winning the lottery.
However, the Hunter Association is actually an organization made up of people, so it’s not really a heavenly organization. Just look at Leila or James.
In addition, the situation in the Korean branch was a little different from the headquarters of the Korean Association.
First of all, there was Estella, the best center of gravity at the headquarters of the Korean Association... ... .
In the case of Korea, the person who should be the center of gravity, Yoo Han-ul, was not very favorable to the Korean Association.
‘That’s the characteristic of those called warriors.’
As is always the case with organizations, when many people gather together, it is difficult for everyone to be of one mind, and even if a system is created, there are bound to be those who take advantage of the gaps.
Even if you try to do something, if it conflicts with the interests of the organization, there are bound to be those who interfere.
Don’t the authors called warriors hate that the most?
And Han Jae-young, who is the next most famous, is also the guild leader of HP and is not very close to the Korean Association.
In addition, Han Jae-young’s personality is not very organization-friendly or power-oriented, so it is ambiguous to unite around Han Jae-young.
So in the case of the Korean branch of the Hunter Association... ... It was like foxes fighting for power in a mountain without tigers.
“It’s an honor to meet you, Hunter Jeong Da-on.”
That’s why when I asked a human from the Hunter Association if we could meet, he had no choice but to welcome me with open arms.
Hunter Kang Kyung-jun, who had received my call, bowed his head to me, who was his daughter’s age, without hesitation.
It was an action that was out of place in a strict Confucian society where age determines the hierarchy.
And the neat-looking young man next to him also smiled and greeted me.
“Hello, Hunter Jeong Da-on. My name is Kim Yi-hyun. It’s an honor to meet a national hero.”
I quietly looked at the man named Kim Yi-hyun and then turned my head to Kang Kyung-jun.
“I didn’t hear that anyone else was coming with you.”
“Oh, I’m sorry if it made you uncomfortable. I thought it would be better to have someone my age than just me, so I came with you... ... Should I send it back?”
Kang Kyung-joon nodded at Kim Yi-hyun as he said that.
Kim Yi-hyun did not look offended or wary at my gaze, but instead straightened his shoulders as if he was proud.
He looked strangely confident.
“... ... ”
I let out a short sigh.
‘So blatantly... ... .’
As I looked at Kim Yi-hyun, I remembered a time in the past that I thought I had forgotten.
If you are reading this translation anywhere other than Novelight.net or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
At that time, the people who tried to make a connection with me, the prince, instead of Orbis, would always look down on pretty boys wherever I went, but when I showed no interest, they even searched for pretty girls.
I had a hard time because there were so many people who would entice me wherever I went.
I told Orbis to enjoy it moderately, but honestly, from my perspective, it was just annoying.
And it’s even worse now.
‘Jung Da-jeong would probably collapse if she found out.’
I pressed my temple hard.
Looking at this, it seems that Kang Kyung-joon was also quite impatient.
‘Well, there are only five active S-class hunters.’
Since I was the one who had the best stock recently, he must have thought that he had to continue the relationship without missing this opportunity since I was the one who contacted him.
No matter what, I didn’t know that he would come up with such a blatant and handsome-looking trick... ... .
‘Well, I look like I’m about 20 years old, so I guess it’s not strange for me to do this... ... .’
Generally speaking, it’s also a time when hormones are at their peak.
‘Let’s think positively for now.’
At least it’s positive that I can figure out how much the other person thinks of me.
If he really thought of this as just a one-time business meeting, Kang Kyung-joon wouldn't have brought Kim Yi-hyun to this place.
I want to build a good relationship in the future... ... well even if he showed such a gesture, it would be better to think about it.
After all, I never thought that the people who rushed out to meet me would be honest people.
In the first place, if honest people showed up, I would be in a difficult position.
I raised the corners of my mouth.
“... ... Let’s talk while we eat.”
The annex of the Korean restaurant in Gangnam is a place where nothing would leak out no matter what we talked about.
There wasn’t much to talk about while eating.
At best, it was just a few small talk and a story about the dungeon break that happened a few days ago.
It was annoying that Kim Yi-hyun kept making eye contact and trying to laugh, but I held back. Lee Woon-gyeol held back too, but this was nothing.
“Even though you got involved in such a big accident, you saved so many people, and as a senior, I feel ashamed. In fact, our association should have contacted you first to see if there was anything they needed.”
It’s a funny story.
‘You’re talking like you’re the head of the Korean Association.’
Kang Kyung-joon was a B-class hunter with a pretty good standing within the association... ... but he wasn’t a member of the upper echelons of the association.
If someone had contacted me as the head of the association, it would have been someone higher up than a B-class hunter like Kang Kyung-joon.
It wasn’t just Kang Kyung-joon who was funny. Kim Yi-hyun, who was sitting next to Kang Kyung-joon, also chimed in.
“That’s true. In fact, the Korean Association should issue a plaque of appreciation or something. Didn’t you receive any separate contact?”
“Yes, nothing.”
“Oh my, Lee Hyun-ah. If the government had the presence of mind to take care of that, a Korean Association like ours wouldn’t have come into existence.”
“That’s true. Hunters like us should help each other out, but this is... ... .”
Kim Yi-hyun let out a sigh with a worried expression while smiling. Then Kang Kyung-joon pretended to make a stern expression.
“Oh, don’t bring up such heavy topics at a meal. Just think of it as a place where a senior buys a meal for his juniors.”
“Haha, yes. I understand. Jung Da-on Hunter, this pufferfish stew is delicious. Please eat.”
“Hehe, yes. Your age matches. I think it would be great if we could become close friends in the future.”
“... ... ”
I looked at the light on the ceiling for a moment.
It was a place I had hoped for and prepared... ... It seems that no matter where I go, it’s the same as a social gathering for politics, no matter how much I reincarnate.
‘But it seems like it’s just trash that can be thrown away.’
It’s like he’s secretly trying to slander the Hunter Association for not contacting me first, and he’s even trying to continue his relationship with me by going to the handsome men’s section.
‘James Chen has an eye for people.’
He’s the kind of person who sees similar trash.
Even though James was officially kicked out of the KCCA, that doesn’t mean his connections have completely disappeared.
I used James Chen’s connections to select a few people in the Korean branch who were greedy for power but never got close to the center.
The upper echelons, who already had enough to receive investment from Theo Yovanovitch, wouldn’t fall for my persuasion anyway.
But if they have a mixture of confidence in their abilities and an inferiority complex, and want power... ...
“... ... You say we have to help each other.”
I can easily shake them with my hands.
When the meal was almost over, I leaned toward the two of them with a smile.
“There’s one thing I want help with anyway.”
I should take this opportunity to wipe out the Korean KCCA.
