Chapter 40: Nam Gung-ryun’s lab is located on the 4th floor of the Gold Class Main Building.
That was Nam Gung-ryun\'s lab.
“Wow~ I didn’t know it would end so quickly.”
Now, the scene of humiliation was unfolding by Kang Yoo-sik.
“I thought it would be at the end of the first grade. I guess I underestimated my talent too much.”
“… … .”
“Because someone said so confidently that he would not be able to enter. Indeed, I should not listen to other’s opinions.”
“Damn… … .”
Every time Kang Yoo-sik laughed and talked, Nam Gung-ryun\'s eyes trembled.
A little anger, and an expression smeared with shame that he couldn\'t lift my face. Normally, he would have said something, but this time, Nam Gung-ryun couldn\'t even speak.
He ranted that Yoo-sik would never be able to become a diamond class, how could he speak out in this situation?
“I\'ve been talking all by myself. Do you have anything to say?”
“… … Hoowoo.” At Kang Yoo-sik\'s question, Nam Goong-ryun rubbed his face with both hands and sighed and asked.
"What."
"Yeah?"
“What are you going to ask me for? Say it quickly. My head so hurts… … .”
Kang Yoo-sik glanced at Nam Gung-ryun\'s appearance all the way out and then asked with a smile.
“I thought you\'d pretend you don\'t know. It\'s a little surprising.” There was no pledge, and it was a promise made during the conversation. Even though he recorded, he could pretend that he didn’t make a promise, but Nam Gung-ryun is trying to keep his words.
Kang Yoo-sik looked at it with a slightly unexpected expression, and Nam Goong-ryun grumbled at the gaze and replied.
“If I had thought about that, I wouldn\'t have said anything at that time.” “Then will you do whatever I want?”
“… … Say anything only with common sense. Please, I ask you.”
It seems that he’s thinking to do anything if it\'s not really absurd. Kang Yoo-sik, who roughly grasped the level he could ask Nam Goong-ryun, got to the bottom line.
“I’m thinking of creating a club after I go up to the diamond class this time.”
“… … a club?"
"Yes. If I apply from gold class or higher, I can make it, right?”
Of course, getting approval is tricky, but it doesn\'t matter because I have talked with the head of the school before.
Nam Gung-ryun looked at the sudden story of Kang Yoo-sik with a puzzled expression.
“What is the club about?” “Hunter economics, by investigating the movement of dungeons, monsters, guilds, and mines… … .”
“Not such a superficial thing. Tell me the real purpose.”
Kang Yoo-sik smiled at the question of Nam Gung-ryun, who seemed to know everything.
“Well, this is an excuse for outside activities. The actual purpose is to discover and cultivate talent. And it\'s a network that will be useful after graduation.”
"you… … Are you thinking of making a guild?”
Kang Yoo-sik calmly nodded at Nam Goong-ryun\'s surprising question.
"Yes. I think so.”
Creating your own guild.
It was a story that anyone would say if it were a hunter, and it was actually something that anyone with some skill and popularity would try.
However, 7 out of 10 guilds that are usually established in that way disappear after a few years. The apparent reason is the failure of the dungeon attack or the destruction due to the collision with the devils.
However, in practice, the battle between the guilds also occupied a fairly large share, and it was not easy to establish a guild and survive for long.
“I don’t know if you know, but… … I don\'t recommend it very much.”
“You don\'t have to worry about that. I\'m trying to create a club to prevent that.”
It is not that difficult to prevent checks between guilds. Having a backup big enough to not be easily touched.
Of course, if there is a hostile force behind it, it may collide with it, but those who are somewhat bulky are cautious when moving.
He did those small checks lots of times before returning and blocked them, so he had no worries.
“… … .”
Nam Goong-ryun made an expression he couldn\'t understand at the proud appearance of Kang Yoo-sik.
He can\'t figure out what he’s planning with his potential that cannot be judged by himself.
He has been watching for several months already, but Nam Gung-ryun didn\'t seem to know anything about Kang Yoo-sik.
“What are you going to do by making a guild?”
It is clear that he will be entangled with the guild in any form. So Nam Gung-ryun asked to know the purpose at least, and Kang Yoo-sik replied calmly.
"Money."
“… … Money?"
“It\'s money. Is there any other reason to create a guild? I\'m trying to make a lot of money by rolling several hunters.”
“… … .” Kang Yoo-sik calmly looked at the appearance of Nam Gung-ryun with a ridiculous expression.
It may sound a little outright, but a person who speaks honestly like this can certainly give you faith even though it may sound cold.
The majority of those who talked like saints by saying that it is for world peace and such only screw the guild up.
‘All the rest guys are psycho.\'
It\'s a bit funny, but those who clear the most dungeons at the gate and take the lead in protecting humanity are the giant guilds that put profits first.
This is because even if there is a lot of noise, it means that the dungeons and monsters inside the gate are effectively cleaned up.
“Are you going to rip off the guild members?”
"No. The time has changed. If you operate like that, it doesn’t last long.”
“… … Huh.”
Nam Gung-ryun, with a deep sigh, scratched his head and looked up.
“So what are you going to ask me for in the end?”
“External advisor.”
In response to Kang Yoo-sik\'s answer, Nam Gung-ryun looked slightly puzzled.
“Aren’t you going to ask me to join the guild later?”
“If I take you, the entire Sungjin will be crazy. Why would I do that?”
Yoon Kang-hyun also emphasized this point when negotiating, and Kang Yoo-sik agreed without saying anything.
It is because Nam Gung-ryun was a necessary talent even in order for the Sungjin Academy to be the best in the world.
“So, all you need is to raise cadets or guild members as an external advisor while you keep attending Sungjin academy. That’s all.”
“One way or another, the workload will be multiplied… … .”
Kang Yoo-sik smiled at the appearance of Nam Gung-ryun, who sighed deeply.
“Instead, I’ll teach you something good.”
“… … Good things?"
"Yes. Instead, there is one condition.”
Kang Yoo-sik took a serious look at the appearance of Nam Gung-ryun looking at him with a puzzled expression.
“You owe me as much as my advice is useful.”
“Are you asking for money?”
“It could be money, or it could be by working harder as an external advisor. I could be either way.”
Probably, Nam Gung-ryun must have felt it according to the personality he learned during the conversation.
That\'s why Kang Yoo-sik smiled inside, and Nam Gung-ryun nodded with an expression that he couldn\'t understand a little.
“… If it\'s really useful, I\'ll do as much as I receive.”
“Then I\'ll tell you.”
Kang Yoo-sik nodded and looked at Nam Gung-ryun.
“The teacher’s unique skill, the leader. There is one fatal problem with it.”
* * *
After finishing all the stories with Nam Gung-ryun.
Kang Yoo-sik, who glanced at Nam Gung-ryun with an unbelievable expression, silently came out of the lab.
‘How long will it take to accept it?\'
A leader who can distort a person by rapidly growing not only the potential but also the personality.
Originally, it is a problem that he will realize only after a large accident in which an S-class hunter turns into a disaster-class devil. Kang Yoo-sik taught him that.
‘It will take a little time, but… … But in the end, he will realize it.\'
And when that time comes, a debt relationship with Nam Gung-ryun will also be created, and there will be no major difficulties in using him as an external advisor in the future.
‘Anyway, it\'s going alright.\'
Create clubs to increase external activities and lay the foundation for guilds in the future. And when all preparations are done, build the power based on the knowledge before the return.
‘If it works well… … It will be one of the best in Korea within 5 years.\'
Of course, it was a hypothesis when everything went well, but Kang Yoo-sik had confidence in his own way.
Even though it was a little messy before the return, he had experience expanding the business all over the world.
‘After that… … I\'ll meet him again.\'
The backworld, no, it was only undisclosed, a big figure that was wrecking the whole world.
Black Dragon Lord.
Kang Yoo-sik only met him once, but he knew for sure that in order to achieve his purpose, he has no choice but to collide with him.
‘Let\'s not bother at first.\'
Right now, all he has to do is take care not to be exposed. You don\'t have to worry more than you need to.
As he came back 28 years ago, it will be safer since the Black Dragon Lord’s power is not yet strong.
‘It’s so hard to make money… … .’
Kang Yoo-sik, sighing, stepped outside the Gold Class’s main building, and the cell phone in his pocket rang as if it has been waiting. He pulled it out, and the name that appeared on the screen was Han Moo-jin. Kang Yoo-sik looked at the unexpected name and checked the text.
[Han Moo-jin: Let’s meet when you are available.]
‘… … Why is this man doing this again?’
He noticed that he had favor with him after having a few conversations, but what am I supposed to do all of a sudden?
With a strange expression, Kang Yoo-sik responded that it’s okay now, and after a while, a reply came to him saying to come to the cadet counseling room.
“Come in.”
Han Moo-jin is smiling while sitting.
Kang Yoo-sik made a slightly quivering expression to that bright expression that did not fit into his big body.
"Ah. Yes. Why did you call me?”
“Well, sit down first. It’s going to take some time.”
“Yes… … .”
Kang Yoo-sik nodded and sat in the opposite seat, and Han Moo-jin smiled.
“This morning, I was surprised to find an official notice suddenly came down. It\'s not even a gold class, it\'s a special upgrade to a diamond class. It would be nice if they have told me that kind of thing in advance… … .”
“I guess it’s because it’s decided urgently during the weekends.”
“Well, maybe. If the discussion had actually been conducted, there would have been some noise. It\'s something we have to deal with anyway, but there\'s no need to bother.”
Han Moo-jin shrugged and smiled and looked at Kang Yoo-sik with a serious expression.
A strange gaze as if seeing through the inside. Kang Yoo-sik, realizing that he was measuring his skills, sparkled his eyes.
‘Is this… …?’
He isn’t sure yet, but if Moo-jin called him to a place like this to measure his skills, it’s for only one.
Kang Yoo-sik, who noticed the situation, waited quietly, and Han Moo-jin looked at it with a slightly strange expression as if the judgment was over.
"Hmm… … Were you a physical type when you entered?”
“I was that when I was admitted to the school, but somehow it turned out like this.”
“Hmm. This looks completely like a wizard… … .”
Han Moo-jin wondered if it would be okay for a while and asked as if he had concluded.
“I have a suggestion for you.”
“Is this a specialized class?”
"Huh?"
When he intercepted what Moo-jin would say, Han Moo-jin looked at him with a slightly surprised expression and immediately nodded.
“You intercepted my words to make me feel awkward. Yes, that\'s it. What do you think?”
At Han Moo-jin\'s question, Kang Yoo-sik pondered for a moment.
The top-level hunter, who was called a dragon warrior during active duty, and was almost promoted to the S-class. Now, he is quietly working as the head of the silver class.
‘But honestly, I don\'t think I need it.\'
Han Moo-jin\'s specialty is likely to be insignificant to learns. It\'s because Yoo-sik also considers the ability a lot.
However, it was a too good opportunity to just give up, so Kang Yoo-sik pondered to see if there would be any more use, and immediately came up with an appropriate method.
“I would like to ask you for one thing.”
“What is it?”
To Han Moo-jin\'s question, Kang Yoo-sik replied with a smile.
“Can I attend the class with one more cadet?”
