71. A little misunderstanding

Oh Hyun-seong moved Lee Gil-sang outside.

Although he was tormented terribly by their hands, his life itself was not in danger.

If he had been an ordinary person, it would have been dangerous, but Lee Gil-sang was a hunter with a strong body, enough to serve as an executive of the Samjeonghoe.

As he was looking at the back of the ambulance carrying Lee Gil-sang, Han Soo-yeon approached him.

“Senior, everything is cleaned up here.”

“great job.”

When Oh Hyeon-seong looked around, he saw the members and executives of the Samjeonghoe organization being dragged out one after another, lying flat on the floor with their hands tied.

The Hunters of the Administration standing next to him.

Since the difference in power was so stark, it was a simple matter to raid and wipe out the Samjeonghoe’s headquarters.

In the past, if a gangster messed with the police, they would be made an example of and destroyed.

The Disaster Management Agency also took thorough retaliation when the criminal organization’s hunters touched its members.

Moreover, since they were targeting the leader, Han Su-yeon, this time, it was natural that the entire organization would be dismantled.

Of course, it was the Japanese hunters who carried out the direct attack, but we had already figured out that they were involved.

“It’s the first time that a domestic crime syndicate has allied with the yakuza, and at best, it’s just a business relationship for a few cases. Above all, they’re not even on the same level.”

The hunters who raided them this time were members of a yakuza organization in Kanto, Japan.

The Japanese yakuza were much larger than the four major Korean organizations.

They are called the four major organizations, but they, including the Samjeonghoe, were in a position where they could not say anything in the face of powerful public power.

Such as the National Disaster Management Agency or the National Security Agency.

The authority of each organization led by hunters within the government is also strong, and their leaders are not people who could be involved in collusion.

They had to somehow continue their business in the shadows, so they had no choice but to watch the government’s reaction, and the terrorists who were on the run were a bigger problem.

But Japan was different.

Criminal organizations formed by powerful hunters took control of their regions and districts and often wielded greater influence than the government.

It has also spread its claws deep into the political world, and this is not something that only happens in Japan.

Even before there were Awakened Ones, it was difficult to prevent this phenomenon, but with the emergence of Awakened Ones who are difficult to control, it is bound to get even more serious.

Korea is just a very special case.

In any developed country, the problems of shady and criminal organizations have become more severe and powerful than in the past.

There is only a difference in degree.

“But there are those who have taken over not only Korea, but even Japan.”

Stories revealed after interrogating Japanese hunters at the factory.

The existence of a secret society called the ‘Eyes of the Vortex’.

But he didn’t know exactly about them either.

Although they were of a considerable level as they were one of the elite of one of the top five powers in Japan, even they did not have detailed knowledge of the organization behind it.

“There must be a reason why it has been kept under wraps until now. I don’t know what it is that it is hiding so much for, though.”

“Anyway, this is an issue that can’t just be overlooked.”

It was also the job of the Disaster Management Agency to identify domestic criminal organizations and manage them to prevent major accidents.

We couldn’t ignore the presence of a mastermind who was hiding in the shadows and exerting such great influence.

“But to really succeed, you have to catch a big fish, whether it’s a domestic organization or a Japanese yakuza, because from their perspective, these organizations can be replaced as many times as you want.”

Oh Hyun-seong said.

While not necessarily secret societies, I have had several encounters with organizations deep in the shadows who are very wary of revealing their true nature.

No matter how many times we catch these rascals, it’s meaningless.

Of course, Han Su-yeon was also aware of that fact.

“We’ll try to work on it from our side. It’ll be bigger than we thought, but we’ll be able to reach it.”

No matter how secretive an entity is, once its tail is stepped on, its true identity is bound to be revealed.

It was time to cast the fishing rod with patience.

Of course, with a tasty bait hanging out.

“…You want me to be the boss?”

Gil-Sang Lee, sitting on the sickbed, stared blankly.

Then Oh Hyeon-seong, sitting in front, nodded.

“The Samjeonghoe has been practically destroyed. All of its branches have been raided and the captain and key executives have all been captured, completely destroying it. It’s a natural outcome since they’ve messed with the head of the management bureau, but I won’t let it collapse like this. Even if we reveal one organization, someone else will just come and fill the empty spot.”

“So you’re saying you’re going to put me in the boss’s seat?”

“okay.”

“Ha, but the real owner of Samjeonghoe is above the boss who appears on the surface. Chairman Ahn was nothing more than a puppet owner, so even if you put me in that empty seat, would the owner of the underworld just leave me alone?”

Lee Gil-sang said, shuddering.

The master of the underworld who reigns over all criminal organizations in Korea.

He, who was an executive of Samjeonghoe, did not even know the name of the organization.

All I know is that he has tremendous influence and moves everyone.

“Don’t worry, they won’t know exactly what happened.”

“What is that…?”

“I checked with the guys who were caught, and it turns out that no reports about you were made to higher levels. The guys who knew you were involved with me are all in the Korean detention center here.”

Due to his involvement in the previous seed incident, Lee Gil-sang had already been captured as a traitor to the organization.

And then, on the confiscated cell phone, a text message from Oh Hyun-seong arrived, and a photo of the secret society’s emblem was found.

That was the reason why Japanese hunters were dispatched to Korea on an emergency mission.

This is to prevent secrets about the organization from leaking out and to thoroughly silence anyone who might be snooping around.

The victory was merely an intermediate step.

Of course, they didn’t know the exact information about Oh Hyeon-seong either.

“Oh, and the position you’re taking on isn’t the boss of the Samjeonghoe. To be exact, it’s the unified boss, a position that encompasses not only the Samjeonghoe, but all four major organizations in the country.”

“Yes… yes?”

At his words, Lee Gil-sang’s mouth fell open.

At that moment, I was speechless at the thought of a story that was so beyond my capabilities.

“Are you sure you’ve arrested all the other organizations as well?”

“No, if that happens, you’ll attract too much attention, so I’ve planted someone. I’ll replace the top brass without anyone knowing, put in a stand-in, and make each organization come together and elect you as the unified boss.”

“Was that even possible…?”

“There’s nothing you can’t do if you put your mind to it. The reason the Administration has kept you alive until now is because you didn’t cross the line. Since we can’t root out every organization that will arise anyway, we just let those who can be controlled fill the positions.”

“Three, my goodness…

“Anyway, you just have to stay in that position and stay still. If you wait like that, you’ll get a call from above. It’s from that guy who’s the master of the underworld.”

In this case, the management office has planted people not only in Korea but also in Japan.

It’s all to uncover the hidden presence behind the scenes.

“I see. I understand what my role is.”

Lee Gil-sang swallowed hard.

He is the boss of not only the Samjeonghoe but also all four major organizations in Korea.

It felt like I had suddenly been promoted to a very high position and was caught up in an incident of enormous scale.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of the rest.”

“Oh, don’t worry. I will do my best in the mission assigned to me!”

Lee Gil-sang nodded and said.

If I hadn’t been prepared to get involved in something like this, I wouldn’t have even followed Oh Hyeon-seong.

Oh Hyun-seong chuckled at his determined appearance and thought.

‘Yeah… I’m going to show the face of the guy who stole my old stuff.’

****

Inside a magnificent castle in Europe.

It was an elegant and old-fashioned place, just like a royal residence, but it was full of gangsters dressed in black suits.

It also appears to be composed of people from different countries.

“Wow, that’s amazing.”

A middle-aged man wearing a bowler hat muttered absentmindedly.

“Are all those guys really gathered here?”

He was also the boss of a famous mafia family in southern Italy, but his reputation was nothing compared to that of others.

Russia’s Luzhnskaya, Japan’s Inagami-gumi, etc.

The heads of notorious international criminal organizations and shadowy big shots from Europe, Asia, and Eastern Europe gathered here.

Organizations with different interests and even enemies were gathered in one place.

Under the call of just one person.

‘Is this really… the true master of the underworld?’

The man swallowed hard.

It was the first time he had come to this place since swearing his obedience, and it was the place where he could meet the master of the underworld that he had only heard rumors about.

‘But what’s really surprising is not the other organizations, but them.’

Those who do not belong to any organization.

Each and every one of the attendants in the castle that had been seen since earlier had an absurd presence.

High-ranking hunters who are at least level 11 or higher and would hold important positions in any country are acting as his attendants.

Not one or two, but dozens of people.

It was a sight that made you wonder if it made sense.

Bam!

At that moment, the large door opened and everyone bowed their heads.

While no one dared look up, the master of the castle came trudging across the hall barefoot.

‘What…what is this…’

The man shuddered at the sound of her approaching.

Her presence seems to press down on the space.

He was a being that could easily surpass the national power-level hunters of Europe that he had seen in the past.

It must be a monster of at least level 13 or higher.

‘Who the hell is this…’

The man raised his gaze without realizing it.

Then I could see a woman approaching me with long, white hair.

He knew her as soon as he saw her.

“Who told you to raise your head whenever you want?”

“I’m… sorry…!”

When their eyes met, the man apologized and looked down.

Cold sweat ran down his forehead as he lay face down.

In the past, the worst criminal in history who turned the world upside down.

I heard she disappeared more than ten years ago, so how could she be here?

“Well, it’s not like I committed a mortal sin.”

She passed by in a flash and sat down on the chair.

She sat there with her chin resting on her hand, looked around, and then said.

“Is there no one from Korea?”

“The chairman of the Anjinhoe was scheduled to come, but he said that a major conflict between the organizations recently broke out and the ruling structure was overturned.”

“suddenly?”

“It seems that a major stir in government agencies has caused a tectonic shift in Korean organizations.”

“Well, that’s what that neighborhood was like originally.”

The woman smiled, tapping her bare feet.

“I’ll stop by sometime soon. To my hometown that I left a long time ago.”

****

Squeak!

After finishing her brief schedule for the day, she returned to her room.

A room as splendid as any other space in the castle.

There were a lot of crude objects scattered here and there that didn’t match the atmosphere.

Artifacts stolen from Korea’s first relic storage facility four years ago.

Additionally, these were relics that each of Oh Hyeonseong had used at least once.

“Senior~”

She hugged the sword and smacked it against her cheek.

She hadn’t let go of her sword for a while, but her eyes soon turned cold and she let out a faint sigh.

“Wait, I will avenge you, Senior.”

Thinking of her senior who has now passed away, Shin Yu-hee clenched her fists.
