Episode 128. Goinmul Corporation General Meeting of Shareholders (1)
“Haaaam…”
“Damn it. You are very sleepy.”
The demons standing guard at the entrance of the cathedral let out a long yawn.
It is boring.
Since this place is notorious for having so many traps, no players were allowed to enter.
Above all, as the upper floors of the tower were opened one after another, large guilds were concentrating their efforts on exploring unidentified dungeons and labyrinths on the 4th and 5th floors.
however.
Parts…
Red sparks rose in the darkness.
someone has come
Even without making a sound.
I had to pay attention to the fact that I normally broke through all of those traps without any noise.
However, the guards, who spent a few weeks of boring daily life, overlooked that fact.
“Hoo. A guest came after a long time.”
“Get out right now. Even if you hide your magic clumsily, you can find it all!”
Sreung!
Chunk!
The demons immediately pulled out their weapons.
A sharp sword pointed forward.
“Whoops. They are faithful soldiers.”
“That must be stupid. You didn’t even know the subject, and you showed your teeth.”
A woman and a man with long silver hair and red eyes.
The two of them had a breathtakingly beautiful appearance, but the aura they exuded was cold and gave goosebumps all over their bodies.
The man’s eyebrows curled in reverse.
Pointing a sword at them seemed to go against their heart.
“Skip the conversation?”
“There is no need to explain each and every thing below.”
Along with cold words, the rapier wrapped around his waist was pulled out.
Dark red aura rose from the blade engraved with a unique pattern.
“but. If you kill enough, the person in charge will come out.”
The woman shrugged her shoulders, but didn’t stop.
“What the fuck are these bastards talking about? Can’t you see the difference in these numbers?”
“I’ll cut off each arm right now and put you in a cage like a pig!”
“Don’t kill me even by mistake. I’m sure you’ll see those two bastards begging for help.”
Demons who reached their twenties spewed curses and rushed at them.
However.
None of the trajectories that cut through the air reached the silver-haired man.
Rather, a thin line of blood spurted out in the sword light that flashed a beat late.
hooked! Fu-wook! Fuck!
All I heard was an eerie cracking sound.
The mere act of ‘stabbing’ created a wind hole the size of a child’s fist in the hearts of the demons.
All without missing one.
“Keep… uh…”
“Oh my God…”
“Cool!”
I couldn’t even see it, let alone react.
It was such a quick and accurate attack.
Twenty demons collapsed in place one by one.
The man licked the blood on his sword lightly with the tip of his tongue. I closed my eyes as if savoring the scent and taste.
However, his expression soon turned grim.
Wow!
“Like lowly people, blood is cheap.”
“Even these guys are better than livestock, but is it really hard to find a human with really delicious blood?”
The two raised their voices as if they were having a cooking competition.
It was then that another voice intervened.
“Such an excuse…”
Slowly…
“I’m sorry to serve you a mediocre meal.”
Hossenbelt appeared in the shimmering shadows.
“Hoo. Before the shadow…?”
“It’s quite usable. It looks like you are in charge here.”
The red pupils shook as if in slight surprise.
It was because there were very few people who used the transfer skill without any sign of it.
“You could say something like that. But what are the nobles of the night doing to such a low place? I’m sure it’s not just the two of you trying to fight us, but…”
Hossenvelt grinned.
Even though he knew that his opponent was one of the strongest races in the tower, he was not nervous at all.
It must mean there is room for it.
However, despite their arrogance, the vampires did not show any discomfort with Hossenvelt’s attitude.
Rather, it seemed that he liked that relaxed attitude, and he scattered the life that he had raised.
A completely different approach than before.
Well, in a way, it’s a natural story.
The two blood relatives here wanted a skillful hunting dog, not pet dogs that couldn’t figure out the subject.
“I accept that I have no intention of fighting.”
Hossenbelt also withdrew the mana he had gathered implicitly.
The tense atmosphere slowly subsided.
Then the blood relatives opened their mouths.
“We are blood relatives of the Decassus family who serve Amulam.”
“The reason we came down here is because the prisoner who was trapped in the ruins on the first floor escaped.”
State your purpose for coming here.
and.
“…From what I’ve heard, they say they collect holy relics. To be precise, the holy relic on the 11th floor.”
“ah. don’t be too wary Because I’m not interested in things like the holy things of your church. Rather, I came to offer to help you get what you want.”
The two clans promised a reasonable price.
A strange smile crept across Hossenvelt’s lips.
“…That’s an interesting statement.”
＊＊＊
90 days have passed since the opening of the 6th floor and finally the 7th floor has been opened.
And about a week had passed since then.
[As the general meeting of shareholders of Goinmul Corporation is scheduled to be held, all applicable employees are requested to gather under the ‘Turtle Rock’ behind the ‘Lake of the Moon’ on the 1st floor of the Tower of Trials by 14:00.] [
Nail If you pretend you’ve seen it, we’ll come to you, and if you dare to read it… Well, I don’t know. You will have to be careful on the road at night starting today. Whooping.]
A polite and courteous guidance message was sent.
The target is those who have been enslaved with the ‘stigma of love affair’ or who are greatly helped by Jinhyeok.
After 6 hours like that.
Finally, the announced 2:00 p.m. was right around the corner.
Several men and women began to gather one by one at the Turtle Rock behind the Moon Lake.
Jinhyeok, who had been waiting for me to come first, welcomed me with wide open hands.
“You all came on time. thank you Thanks to that, it saved me the trouble of visiting them one by one!”
I was going to punish you if you were even a second late.
Unfortunately, everyone strictly kept their time commitments.
I’m really sorry.
I had thought of punishments that were tough enough to make me want to die, but I couldn’t use them.
“Why are there so many slaves? What the hell have you been doing…”
Melena, who was at the front, sighed.
She was also one of the notorious demons, but I couldn’t help but feel sympathy for the fact that there were so many players who were victimized by Jinhyeok.
I looked around with a sad gaze.
everyone.
It came together very differently.
“ah. You may not know each other very well. We will have a brief introduction time, so let’s have a chance to get to know each other.”
Jinhyeok opened a status window in front of him.
The profiles of the shareholders belonging to the deceased corporation appeared in the air one by one.
Hana Park, an early employee, gave up climbing the tower after the fall of the Black Crow Guild, so it is out of the question.
Ho Tae-sik, a low-level employee of the Awoken Association who helped cheat the awakening test results, is Slave No. 2… no, Shareholder No. 2.
“Please take care of me. My name is Ho Tae-shik, assistant manager in the personnel department of the Awakened Association.”
Ho Tae-shik lowered his head with a bewildered face.
Next… is a pair of men and women next to them.
Min Jeong-woo and Lee Yu-ri, who had a relationship since the National Museum of Korea, agreed to cooperate voluntarily, although they did not brand themselves.
His face hardened and he was breaking out in a cold sweat, but he did not threaten him.
As long as they want it. Because I really wanted to come here.
‘Really… they’re thankful people.’
They were talented people that are hard to find anywhere in this bleak era.
In the meantime, I’ve grown steadily, so there must be a place to use it in the right place.
“Whoa. What is his Daedongyeojido? It’s very tight on you.”
“They made the Tutankhamen mask and chess pieces all night long, but can you please just let us go?”
The two added one word at a time.
“Sure. According to our company policy, you can leave the company if you wish.”
“Am I really?”
“Do it! I want to resign! Let me leave, please…!”
hmm.
If you say so earnestly
“It is possible with some consolation money in case of death, but how? Can I take care of it now?”
Jinhyeok took out the newly obtained fang from the subspace inventory.
A dagger whose body was dyed green appeared.
“haha. nope Re-employment is difficult these days, so if you increase the retirement age, I should be grateful.”
“…me too. I will work hard with loyalty to the company!”
“thank you. If there are no more applicants for retirement, I would like to continue the introduction. If there is anything you want to say, please feel free to say it now without burden.”
I’m busy, so don’t procrastinate.
If you have any complaints, please tell me.
“….”
“….”
Naturally, no one raised their hand.
good.
“The third shareholder is this friend. I am currently the master of the Black Crow Guild.”
“My name is Kim Hee-woong. Thanks to the representative, I am able to be here undeservedly. I wish you well!”
Hee-woong Kim was quite happy with this position because he genuinely wanted to follow Jin-hyeok.
It’s because I felt a bond as a colleague who can be together in the future.
However, when the introduction of the fourth shareholder continued…
The faces of the people in front hardened.
I had no choice but to harden.
“Then, the fourth is Ms. Melena, who is active in the Mine Association.”
Mine Association.
A name that could be said to be the enemy of mankind came out.
“The Mine Association?”
“You mean that woman is a member of it?”
“Dae-representative?”
It was only natural that everyone was nervous.
However, Melena, the person in charge, only shrugged her shoulders as if she knew this would be the reaction.
“Looks like it’s my turn this time. My name is Takeshi and I belong to the Japanese Samurai Guild. Jinhyeok and… whoa. sorry. I consider it an infinite honor to be with Ji Jin-hyeok.”
Takeshi, who knew Jinhyeok as one of the gods, was also happy to be in this position.
His voice trembled slightly, probably because he was thrilled just by looking at him.
…I guess I hit too hard in the gray temple.
If I said that I was an ordinary human later, I might go crazy. What about that friend?
‘Was I too harsh?’
Jinhyuk made a slightly sorry expression.
Of course, it was only for a short while.
‘I can buy you a drink or something later.’
okay. Originally, life in the world is to drink a bitter glass of soju and forget about it.
Everyone is living a hard life, so should we collapse just because we get a little frustrated?
“Now, let me introduce the last fifth shareholder. Please briefly introduce yourself.”
At Jinhyeok’s words, the short-haired girl opened her mouth.
“nice to meet you. My name is Andrea, who is in charge of the 5th floor.”
I feel a sense of incongruity in the introduction of something.
Melena, who was slowly chewing on the words, immediately asked back.
“You’re in charge of the 5th floor. What do you mean?”
What do you mean?
“It’s one of the boss monsters on the 5th floor. He must have been busy managing the psychiatric ward, but he made it a long way with difficulty.”
Jinhyeok added an additional explanation about Andrea.
It was a calm tone, but the reaction to him was so intense that it was about to explode.
“Huh… Heh heh!”
“Why is the bo boss monster here!”
“It’s nonsense.”
This time, everyone bounced like a spring, widening the distance.
Some even gasped for breath while holding on to their weapons.
“Uh…somehow, I thought the magic was strange…”
“Ah. dizziness i. Grandpa Jungwoo! That’s why I told you not to come!”
“haha. I’m sorry. I didn’t expect something like this to happen either.”
Until the word Mine Association came out, I was surprised, but it was within the permissible range.
Since Jinhyeok is a deceased person who is not in his right mind, he thought it was too easy.
but.
A boss monster.
Isn’t this a completely different word?
Although there were slight differences of opinion, one idea was common.
What the hell are all these companies out there?…
“It seems that the brief introduction has ended with this.”
Jinhyeok paired up and crossed their palms.
There are outside directors Alice and Sweet Potato, Chun Yoo-seong and Yoo Yeon-hwa and Lee Tae-min, but let’s omit them here.
Because we had to start the long-awaited general meeting of shareholders from now on.
