History's Strongest Manager

Mary's eyes were filled with life. Choi Hyeong-jun raised her mouth, looking at Maria.

“Did I say something wrong? ”

“What the fuck are we talking about, good murder, bad murder? That's what I'm here for in the first place. No one will ever understand this, and no one will ever understand it. In the last words, we killed the bad guys, but we also killed the good guys. We carry such contradictions and such treachery in the first place. What are you gonna do with all this bullshit that everybody knows about this place? Weren't we literally doing this shit because of the world peace we were so ashamed of? What you did caused chaos in one country! What kind of bastard knows that killing a President can only lead to a second door? ”

“No, it's not about world peace. Have you forgotten how we started? ”

Choi said, staring at Maria with bloodshot eyes.

“We were a group of avengers in the first place. It was literally a coalition of killers who shoot and kill fucking assholes. A politician who treats people like garbage, who treats Hunters like batteries at the end of the year, and who can change them at any time! Capitalist! Corporate! Soldier! They were the ones who put a gun to the heads of those miserable bastards. Didn't our long and grueling slaughter begin when we put the fleet arc templar into the squeezer and crushed it? Have we considered things like," The stability of the world is chaos? "”

Choi said, looking around Maria and others, shaking their fists.

“Union has been repaired. We have the same sense of justice now. You're still trying to figure out a reason not to kill all those sons of bitches. Admit it, we became the hypocrites we hated and hated the most. ”

After Kangjun's words, Liam Bradley raises his hand quietly.

“Let me ask you something, Choi Kang Joon. ”

“I'm listening. ”

“So you're saying we should keep killing those 'despicable villains' the way we've always been? Like you said? If that's the case, aren't we imitating the dark hero you just said we were? ”

“No, that's not what I said. ”

Gangjun shakes his head and smiles.

“Everyone's telling me to relax my shoulders because they think we're ruling the world. We weren't supposed to think that much. ”

It was a group of destroyers that killed, destroyed and destroyed. But over time, the group became increasingly cautious and delicate.

“We're just a bunch of murderers, and we don't want to impose too much duty and responsibility on people like us. I don't mind. Let's just do what we used to do without a lot of responsibility. ”

Kang Jun lowered his eyes and muttered to himself.

“We're doing an outrageous thing. ”

That made everyone look worse, except for Bradley. No one knew what Kang Jun meant.

But Iznitas said small.

“Have you still not forgotten the commotion? ”

“…… doesn't seem to matter at all. ”

“No, I don't think you're out of the spirit of chaos yet. ”

At that, Kang Jun quietly unleashed his anger.

“If you're asking if a disturbance is carving a message into the bone. But be careful.... ”

Kangjun stared at Iznitas with an equally lively eye.

“Don't put ghostly words in the names of your dead comrades. ”

“I don't think Iznitas was right. But the commotion was special to you. ”

Lu Shu announced, and Kang Jun gripped it. But it was Bradley who stopped him.

“Stop, don't mention Ran. ”

Kang Jun had to look at one of the empty seats. That's what it said on the old plaque.

[Union-00 Rank B Hunter Riot.]

The 00 number was given to the deceased member. She died at the time of GR, and as with any vacancy, it was a vacancy.

Noise,

He was Kang Jun's teacher.

Liam Bradley straightens things out.

“Kang Joon, I know your position. But at the same time, I have respected you and I intend to respect you in the future. You have a good point. Union is literally a group that begins with anger. It's the same group that committed the murders of the merciless. But as important as that is, we can't just be homicidal maniacs. ”

“Like you said, we are sinners. Since GR, we have borne an indelible sin in the world. There was a disagreement between us, and something sad happened. That sin is shared by us all. ”

“That's why we all act out of guilt, not anger, ever since. Our behavior has changed a lot because of that. It still breaks, kills, destroys, but we have to seize and consider other things. ”

“Literally. Your argument that we have been conserved also makes sense. However, we are not at liberation of anger, but we are at a position to make atonement. This atonement will not end until we die, and that is why we must also consider many things. ”

“Therefore, we will no longer punish the wicked for being wicked. We will focus on killing those who need to die, and getting rid of those who need to be eliminated. There is not a single person here who does not think of this as cheap justice or hypocrisy. ”

“Hypocrisy is also not a virtue. Only, we do what we can in our place. ”

“Of the things you have to do, you have to do the things you can do. ”

“Our principles have changed since GR. ”

“We want peace through justice. The first to be kept is peace, and the next is justice. I will not deny that this is our own defeatism. ”

“Peace is relatively easy compared to justice. Judging what is right requires a lot of thought, consideration and controversy, but peace anticipates a paradoxically permanent struggle. Think about the case of the Korean president you killed. Between killing him and not killing him, what do you think will happen if we do it from a justice standpoint? I don't know what the conclusion will be. ”

“But if the point of view becomes peaceful, the conclusion is that we should not kill him. There is a cheap sense of justice, but what we seek is peace after all. Remember this.”

“What we're good at is fighting, fighting, and destroying. Like you said, we're more combat-proficient killers than we think. The only thing that matters. ”

“The age of wrath is over. ”

“It's easy for us to fight, and it's hard for us to judge what's right. Remember, we don't punish the wicked with justice. If you think so, it's a big mistake. ”

“We just want to keep a deceptive peace, so we leave them to do that. So we're having a permanent fight. Do you understand me, Choi Jung? ”

Liam Bradley says so and finishes his speech. Kang Jun didn't think he could convince him, and to be honest, what he said was just a torch of anger, not a persuasion. Gangjun and Bradley had a similar conversation two years ago. Since then, Kang Jun left Union and remained in a vague relationship, not leaving or working with his colleagues.

Kang Jun was usually mild, but was just as aggressive as Union's Code of Conduct and remained that way. And I didn't accept Union as different from the past.

I did not expect Bradley or Kang Jun to close the gap.

“I'm sorry for what I said to you. Apologize first."

Gangjun looks around and bows his head. They were not related, but because of their long time together, they were intimate enough to say that they were family. Therefore, I did not think that Kang Jun would break the relationship even though he uttered such abusive words.

“As much suffering and guilt as I think you are boiling inside. I'm sorry again for acting like I'm the only one with a conscience. But, but I just wanted to say this... I've been wanting to say that for a long time, and it was a little crazy, a little emotional. ”

However, Kang Jun was here for a reason. Even though he knew that he could not narrow the gap, he knew that it was impossible to persuade him, there was only one reason why Kang Jun responded to the call.

“And now I'm told I can't be with you... I'm so sorry."

The words opened their eyes wide as if they were torn apart. If he kept his bold expression, Hashimoto Ren also stood up and shouted.

“W-what are you talking about, Gangjun! ”

“No, I'm determined. ”

Kang Jun slowly opened his mouth with a firm expression.

“It is clear that Union is gaining on itself. But it's also true that I'm confused. No, maybe he's just tired. I'm not as strong and patient as you think. I have lived with you in the age of wrath. And I said Union is conservative, but maybe I'm not conservative enough to accept change myself. ”

Kang Jun declared, looking at those who couldn't help but be embarrassed and frightened.

“I'm leaving Union. ”

Gangjun came here to say that.

“Hey, hey, hey! Don't do it. Seriously! Seriously, don't do that. ”

Iznitas wept over Kangjun. Kangjun also had to make a bitter smile looking at Iznitas like that. In the end, they were the only people who believed in each other in this lonely age.

One was more precious than the other. Liam Bradley also failed to speak with an aggressive expression.

“What if I have to take my life in return for my resignation? ”

Union has never left the company. So no one could figure out how to deal with Kang Jun's dismissal declaration. Kang Jun smiled at Bradley's threatening words.

“Trying to kill me? You can't do that. ”

“Why do you think that is? ”

“You can't do that. ”

“... You've still got some nerve. ”

“People don't change that easily. ”

Liam Bradley eventually nods. He had already heard of Choi Jun's resignation declaration last year, but had not been able to accept it. Even if there is an emotional conflict, they have a history that they have built up together. It was a trait that could never be put to rest.

Choi Jung did something that was purposefully summoned to say when all the members gathered like this.

Maria looks at Kangjun Choi with a dull look, pale to the fingertips as well as her complexion.

“You, you really... Are you serious?"

“Huh."

In Kangjun's cold answer, Maria bites her lips and bows her head with her eyes closed. Kang Jun's fury that boiled in his words had already cooled down because of Kang Jun's shocking declaration. Iznitas was already in tears, and Maria was squeezing her thighs hard to resist the desperate crying.

I didn't feel so serious when Choi told me that he would leave Union like a habit. However, this declaration of resignation was no different than the declaration of isolation from everyone. Within a minute of silence, Maria suddenly woke up.

“No.”

“ ……. ”

“Don't drop anything. Me, I.... I can't have that. ”

Maria whitened her lips and exclaimed as if she was staring at Kangjun.

“Are you mad? No way? Childish really... Are you mad at me for this? You're just mad, aren't you? You've been acting a lot lately, and I'm too busy to talk, okay? Let me listen to you, talk to me. But still, we're not gonna get torn up and do that, are we? ”

“I haven't changed my mind. I'm leaving.”

“No! No! That's unacceptable! It's not like we've been screwing for a long time and we're torn up a little bit! Not this!”

“That's right, Gangjun. Calm down a little bit. You seem excited. ”

“I think I have enough opinions. ”

“We are nine. Reducing one will result in power loss.... No, it's not a power loss. Gangjun, think again about quitting. I don't want you to leave. ”

Excited Maria begins her speeches, and others join her in mourning. Maria began to plead beyond the round table to Kangjun.

“Hey, you really... You're not gonna see us anymore? Aren't you going to look at me? Please, please don't do this... Ugh, call me Eulsoon, and I won't be mad at you. Think again, okay? I, how am I... ”

“I think you have a very big misunderstanding. ”

Kang Jun grips Maria's shoulder, his head tilting and grinning.

“You said you're quitting, you said you're quitting? ”

“W-what? ”

“I'm going to take my hands off the Union, but why is that going to cut me off? What did I say about crossing over to Ishita? ”

Mary lost her focus on what she said, making a silly face. Then everyone realized what Kang Jun said and sighed of relief. Kang Jun looked around and laughed as if it was ridiculous.

“You guys are so mean, you didn't want to see me when you left? ”

“Oh, no, of course I thought that... ”

Iznitas mutters indistinctly, sighing as if the others were absurd. Even though he took his hands off Union's work, Kang Jun did not want complete disconnection. But because of that strange nuance, everyone was fooled.

In particular, Maria was as hostile to Gangjun as she was to her heart. Maybe it's the feeling of being barefoot, and Maria is all red up and down her ears.

“We can stay friends. Isn't that right?”

Gangjun looks down and looks at Mary, trembling.

“Eulsoon.”

“…… Son of a bitch! ”

Ow! Ow!

“Unh!”

Kang Jun's body was flustered when punched in the abdomen.
