Damned 13th Regression – 70



< Episode 70 – Special Lesson 0 (6) >

Knock knock

General Manager of the Mercenary Division.

Someone knocked on Deputy Director Martunis’ door.

“excuse me. “Deputy director.”

“Who is it?”

“This is Special 0 and team leader Joo Gong-hyeok.”

Martunis tilted his head at the unexpected guest.

“Please come in.”

Squeak

The lonely wooden door opened and Gonghyuk came in.

Martunis looked out the window at dusk.

“I can’t believe you came here at this hour. “Would you like to drink something first?”

“no. it’s okay.”

The secretary has already left work.

Martunis sat down to drink the black tea that the Company’s agricultural department had begun producing.

“Let’s get straight to the point.”

“Sure.”

“Yesterday I turned several corpse magicians into corpses.”

“To get to the point there are a lot of metaphors.”

Moreover what he said had already been reported.

What more do you want to say?

Martunis took a sip of black tea.

“yes. “Approximately 8000 animals…”

“Puhup!”

Black tea mixed with milk and saliva was sprayed on the table.

“8000? “Didn’t you add two more zeros?”

“Most of them were summoned animals. “If you count the members alone there will be about 100 people.”

“hmm······.”

The conductor swallowed his voice.

The report he received was that as always a criminal organization had been eradicated.

However the status of the numbers that are not written down…

“Team leader Joo. First of all thank you for your hard work. We’ll review the reward later. “Was it known in the newspapers?”

“There is still an embargo. Even if you stop it it will probably leak out by the day after tomorrow.”

“okay···. “It would be funny if I the person in charge found out later than the newspapers.”

Martunis was troubled for a moment.

Gonghyeok handed him some documents.

“What is this?”

“This is the recent performance report of the 7 teams.”

The conductor read the document carefully.

“Some achievements are missing. “The number of cases where murderers or devil contractors were caught.”

“Yes. and···. “Please take a close look at yesterday’s incident.”

“hmm?”

Martunis’ face stiffened in shock.

The company’s underground area is a hotbed of various crimes.

Who are the people who manage that place that is off-limits?

Except for a few secret laboratories or areas designated as private land the role of the mercenary division was in charge of security.

It was said that Sanchez and some personnel entered the underground area after receiving permission and keys from the Mercenary Division.

‘Such a dog…’

The one currently in charge of the keys is the Mafia Eight Clubs.

It was Martunis himself who gave up the key.

Because he had a close financial relationship with Palakhoe.

“You went in very legally.”

“If we hadn’t prevented the accident there it would have been a big problem. As a result I ended up violating my mission.”

“no. no. “You did very well.”

Thousands of Necro Mafia troops entered there.

What if Sanchez fell into a trap and died?

It was obvious that the Mercenary Division which legally helped the Necro Mafia due to management failure would be in big trouble.

‘You have quick hands.’

The conductor’s eyes changed when he looked at him.

“okay. Anyway this is…”

“Don’t worry.”

“what?”

Gonghyuk held out one more document.

“The content under embargo is…”

‘Mercenary Division Special Task 0 and Entrapment Investigation.’

‘A bold operation led by Martunis!’

‘Kill 8000 Necro Mafia. great success.’

The document contained a draft of an article from the Company’s newspaper department.

A look of confusion appeared on the conductor’s face.

“Is this…?”

“Deputy Director did not fail to manage. “By pretending to have failed we lured them into a trap.”

“hmm······.”

Martunis complimented stroking his chin.

“Great.”

“That’s too much praise.”

“Well that’s great. “Then I’ll take care of the rest.”

‘Let’s just go in now.’ The conductor ends his speech by saying

Three black cases were placed in front of it.

“I took care of the rest as well.”

The black Atase case was opened.

Hundreds of dark blue coins and skill coin scrolls shone.

The conductor gaped.

“This is an apology from the Palakhoe Desert Wolves Dual Pistols.”

“uh······.”

This was the case that Gonghyuk took advantage of while going around the mafia yesterday.

Martunis looked down at the black cases in silence.

“When we announced the crackdown period against the Necro Mafia last time didn’t we decide to give power to the existing Mafia?”

“yes.”

“I thoroughly defeated the necromancers around them and informed them that I had done it on the orders of the Deputy Director. Then they thought that they were paying more in compensation and were working harder than before.”

Gonghyuk suddenly felt itchy to think about cigarettes.

I should smack someone in front of him who looks at me blankly like this.

I refrain from tracing the case in my arms with my fingers.

“It seems like there is a lot of worry because of the mistake of opening the underground area by mistake. He made a mess of the guys who did things in front of me. “I declined the idea that only the head would be soaked in slime for easy storage.”

“her.”

Martunis applauded with a hollow exclamation.

“Great.”

“I just came forward without knowing the topic.”

I finished all my work and left without even knowing the topic.

Martunis also shook his head at the empty words that were openly announced.

“no. I am shocked now. I heard a rumor that you are not the type of person who simply pushes for results through force. “I never thought he would handle things this well.”

He sat down on the back of the sofa and laughed.

“Chief Jeong. “I understand why that friend is anxious.”

“Are you talking about Manager Jeong?”

When Gonghyuk trailed off he showed interest.

“why? Any problem… “No wait.”

Martunis narrowed his eyes.

“this. “Is this something that wasn’t reported to Manager Jeong?”

“If you report to Manager Jeong. Wouldn’t it be missing again?”

Gonghyuk nodded and lowered his gaze.

“It is not simply a matter of my achievements being omitted. I can just post something like this later. “Whether within the city or outside the city.”

This much work?

Usually something like this is an achievement that one might achieve once in a lifetime.

However when Joo Gong-hyeok said that from time to time the entire mercenary division would come forward to solve cases it didn’t seem like a joke at all.

“The real problem is…”

His downcast eyes met Martunis.

“I think Manager Jeong may be trying to escape from the Deputy Manager’s control.”

“hmm······.”

It was a sensitive issue.

A company is an organization made up of several hunter clans.

Large clans were organized into one organization and renamed into departments.

The Alchemy Clan is the Alchemy Division and the commercial organization is the Commercial Division.

Likewise the mercenary division was created by combining several mercenary clans.

The Helen Office which was in charge of the city’s security was the Security Department 2.

The James & Billy office which escorted peddlers was transformed into the 5th Escort Department.

The Martunis Office which boasted the most powerful power only occupied the first department and the general manager.

However there is no way such an absurd organization could cooperate well.

The departments except Department 1 and Department 0 were almost independent.

There were a lot of rumors that the money paid to the entire mercenary division was being secretly siphoned off.

The report is quite disparaging to Martunis who is directly affiliated with the elite unit Division 0.

Special Department 0 usually assigns the subordinates he trusts the most and the fact that the manager of Department 0 turned his back on Martunis meant that his influence as the general manager was collapsing.

“I see. “I know what you mean.”

The deputy director looked at Joo Gong-hyeok with interest.

“So Team Leader Joo. “What do you want to do?”

“I heard that Manager Jeong is escorting Secretary Cesc on this shortened mission to the 10th floor.”

Gonghyuk spoke seriously.

“I also want to participate in that shortened mission.”

“okay. Come to think of it neither you nor Manager Jeong have shortened the building to the 10th floor yet.”

Martunis stroked his chin.

Once every 6 months.

Hunters who are not protected by the city’s owner are forced to participate in missions.

However the progress of the front-line hunters who have already surpassed the 30th floor and the new hunters who have just entered the 5th floor is extremely different.

The new hunters were tested in units of 10 floors to keep up with the front line.

To follow up to the 30th floor go to the 10th floor the 20th floor and the 30th floor.

A total of three shortened missions had to be completed.

Separately you can also enter floors that have been cleared once.

There had to be a special item.

“It’s possible.”

“I will go on a mission with Manager Jeong and find out what he is like.”

“okay···. “It’s not a bad thing to have a bright young man like you working properly under me.”

Martunis stood up and looked out the window.

“It was a fun time.”

Gonghyeok bowed his head and left the room at the light greeting.

10 minutes later Manager Jeong’s shout rang out.

And the sight of him leisurely leaving work caught Martunis’s eye.

“There are some mistakes. “It stabs quite sharply.”

I muttered as I watched Joo Gong-hyeok leave the office.

“Things are things. But you’re still young.”

Gonghyeok obviously brought up some pretty interesting topics and talked about them.

However the way he spoke and the main point were direct and his fighting spirit was more driven by his spirit than his speaking skills.

“Awesomeness is useless if you don’t have the right weapon for it.”

The expert hunter’s eyes followed the darkening streets.

＊ ＊ ＊

Gonghyuk took out a cigarette from his arms.

The smoke that had wrapped around the core dispersed into the sky.

‘I threw away the rice cake.’

A trip?

Instead of missing a leg he could have stabbed the head.

But this is just fine.

‘Would you like to pull it out?’

‘B’.

Bergoglio the future.

If they know the future they have no choice but to be drawn to the bait.

Regression game. Hellfire Difficulty.

‘Should we have some fun friends?’

A part of my heart is as excited as a feather.

The cigarette burned to a gray color due to my rough breathing.

＊ ＊ ＊

Necro Mafia Underground Chapel.

Three chairs and a triangular table.

However there are two people gathered.

One seat was empty.

Said the massive giant wearing black armor with his arms crossed.

“Master of the army. Isaac Gerolbein is dead.”

The face of the remaining person stiffened at the giant’s words.

Contractors and necromancers who have been undermining the Company.

There were three people here representing them.

Isaac Jerolvine was a monster of a different kind.

Where will you find a necromancer who rules over an army of 10000 and can cast three high-level spells at once?

I heard that he is about the third most powerful person in the Reaper Church.

Well he died yesterday.

“Kill Joo Gong-hyeok.”

The black giant declared.

The remaining one scratched his head.

“It’s a little difficult right now. But I somehow…”

“no. “Kill me immediately.”

The fingers scratching my head twitched.

“How are you going to kill me?”

“The apostles who were scattered throughout each city were called.”

“What!?”

Shake!

The man got up quickly and the chair fell.

“What are you going to do by gathering killing machines? “I can handle that bastard!”

“I can’t help it. “I already called.”

The man became frustrated at the giant’s short answer and pounded his chest.

“Do you know how I got to this point? If you do something like that everything will be ruined! Why did you do that without saying a word! “I don’t agree.”

“no.”

The giant’s finger pointed at the man.

“You too must come forward to kill Joo Gong-hyeok.”

“hey. Are you listening? I don’t agree? Or are you ordering me something?”

“It is not my will nor is it my command.”

The man who was running wild suddenly stopped.

When I think about it the apostles are not the ones who are heard giving orders.

The only ones who can command apostles are higher beings.

“Reaper and devil. “Both beings want Joo Gong-hyeok dead.”

“oh my god.”

The man was speechless.

The giant looked down at him pitifully.

“I know how hard you worked to get to that position. We also supported you as much as we could until you reached that position. “I think it would be a waste to carelessly blow away the spear of someone like you.”

“······.”

“But everything goes according to the devil’s will.”

The giant placed his hand on his chest and spoke gravely.

“Compared to the journey to the New World it is all trivial.”

Finally after praying the giant left the chapel.

Two empty chairs.

Now the man is left alone.

“Damn it.”

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

bang!

The triangular desk shattered into pieces.

‘How did I get to this point!’

There was a Sanchez incident in the unique city ‘Kingdom’.

As a result the owner of the city died and the kingdom fell into complete chaos.

At first glance it seems like a good thing for the Necro Mafia.

The kingdom which lost its sovereignty and power to resist foreign invasions was completely wiped out by the city alliance led by Deus.

The mafia as well as the city’s residents were scattered and the semi-abandoned kingdom became a colony city for the Company.

‘And six years. ‘It’s been 6 years since I started with a rolling stone!’

Six years at Babel is not easy.

There were four major summonses over six years.

While millions of people were dying he stubbornly survived.

‘I can’t lose everything like this. ‘Never!’

The man gritted his teeth.

It’s time to gamble.

Either lose everything or gain everything.

I thought I still didn’t have enough strength…

It is enough if apostles from all over the world gather together.

‘Turn the company around. And I…’

Become the owner of the company.

Although he didn’t know.

In the past he had one colleague.

A messenger named Ömer Ashk.

And now.

There was no one next to him.
