History's Strongest Manager

Eventually, it all became a blur of celebration, and everyone was having a loud day. After drinking, Chaos once again appeared in the barrel of dancing and calling the opening and ending themes like a drunkard, but Kangjun also enjoyed it.

By dawn, the untidy party was over. Emily had to go to school, so Seo-young took her up.

Choi Na was drunk and exhausted, and Kang Ju was confirming that he recorded Choi Na's Drunken Playtime Specials on his phone.

After talking about it for a while, I was silent after getting hit by a night of honey from West Aran.

After talking a little more, everyone went to rest. I couldn't always play because of tomorrow's work. Starting tomorrow, he will attend Alpha-Sod as President.

Nothing's changed. Kang Jun also had considerable authority during his time as vice president, and Long-Term Won was just the vice president. So, the job title only changes without actually changing.

But I couldn't help but feel a little weird about it.

“Aren't you going to sleep? ”

Seoyoung came to Kangjun who was staring at the outside in the living room. It appears to have put Emilia to sleep.

“I'm going to sleep just a little bit longer. ”

“Hmmm... ”

Seoyoung looked at Gangjun like that, then suddenly went to the refrigerator and took out two cans of beer. Then I asked lightly.

“What do you think?”

“Very well.”

- Cheers!

The sound of picking beer cans sounded pleasant. They sat down and drank beer in the living room after the commotion.

“I'm sorry. I just left Emily in charge. ”

“I don't care. I have nothing to do. But I think you should pay a little attention to Emily. ”

Seo-young took a sip of beer and looked at Emilia's room.

“Emilia, even if it doesn't look like it, I rely on Kang Joon a lot. ”

“... Really? ”

Even when I came back, there were more times when I didn't say a word. Even though I solved a bothersome job, I was even more faced with Gangjun since Seoyoung started taking care of me. However, Seo-young smiled as if she was sad.

“You know what? Emilia, stay in the living room until Kang Jun leaves work. ”

“Why the living room? ”

“I keep looking out the window pretending I'm not. We can see cars coming in and out of here. ”

A living room overlooking the entrance to the dungeon. So the first thing you see when someone comes back was this living room. Even at the time of the assassination, Emilia was the only one who waited for Kangjun's late return. With the exception of Emilia, she knew that Kang Jun was now an adult, so she lived through her own busy life.

Therefore, there is only one Emilia waiting for Kang Jun to return from this accommodation.

“Kang Jun looks strange. ”

Seo-young laughed at Kangjun's complex expression to see if it was fun. Kang Jun suddenly forgot what he was looking like. And I didn't even know what he looked like.

“Well, is that so weird? ”

“It was so weird. ”

However, Seo-young added with a smile.

“Still, I think it's good to know how to make that face. ”

“…… I have no idea what you're talking about. ”

Kang Jun sighed and laughed. A life waiting for someone to come home, he would have looked strange to him.

A life where people wait for themselves.

Kang Jun did not stop laughing because it was ridiculous. It's like...

You seem like a normal person. Perhaps Seo-young felt that, so she was thinking positively about Kang Jun's expression. Kang Jun and Seo-young talked about Emilia. It looked like a couple talking about how their daughter was doing.

Seoyoung and Gangjun knew something was wrong, but they talked about it.

“Emily is also learning Korean more and more. ”

“I'm glad.”

“I'm still a little rusty, but I've got to say hello. ”

“Is that so?"

“Take off your automatic translation yesterday and say to me, 'Good night. You said" yes "? ”

When Seoyoung remembered his face a lot, he laughed as if Kang Jun was surprised. It was a pleasant conversation. It meant nothing and it was just a roundabout conversation that something like this had happened.

But it might actually be something like this. Deceiving someone, convincing someone, and deceiving others may not be a conversation. Gangjun's conversation was always that way. That's why it made me feel weird to say these words.

If you're just having a pleasant conversation, you should think of yourself as a waste of time.

It's just fun. Gangjun might have wanted this. Maybe someone wants to live a life waiting for them, have meaningless conversations, and just have fun today and enjoy it tomorrow.

[Sorry to interrupt.]

“Hmm?"

While talking about it, suddenly, an Elf spoke to Gangjun.

[You have a visitor.]

“! ”

When I saw the Elf's front door CCTV screen, Kang Jun's expression hardened. As soon as Kang Jun checked the screen, he grabbed Seoyoung's shoulder.

“Jules, get in the room and stay put. Never, never come out. Okay?”

“Yes, yes... Okay."

This guest should not see snowflake walking around safely. At Kang Jun's words, Seo-young nodded with a firm expression and quietly went into the room.

A sudden visitor was like Mary.

“Congratulations!"

Maria gives you a bouquet of flowers with a big smile. Gangjun accepted the bundle of flowers and scratched his head.

“Is that why you came all the way here? ”

“Is that all you have to say to someone who flew straight from Canada? ”

“No, I'm just sorry... ”

“Oh, I'm sorry it didn't work out. ”

It was Maria who arrived late after hearing about Kangjun's promotion. Maria looks down at the two can of under-drinked beer on the table.

“Hmm, must have done it backwards. ”

“Well, it's just... ”

We're having a normal conversation, but right now it's a flurry. Even if I could see him breathing in the room, even if I could see Choi Jung's neck flying right now, I was speechless. However, Maria was fortunate enough to not care who Choi Joon drank with at night, as she had always been cool.

“By the way, my friend is the CEO of a large company, and my shoulders are shrunk. Huh? It's shredding! ”

Maria bursts into a funny smile. Gangjun decorates the table with a bunch of flowers he received and sits next to Mary. I was so nervous that I wanted to bite my tongue, but Kang Jun didn't even show that color on his face.

“Actually, it doesn't change much. ”

“Well, I guess it's because I dropped my pants.... ”

Maria goes there and stops talking like she made a mistake. It is the people inside Alpha-Shad who know that long-term sources are the pants president. So it's a little bit of a nuisance that Maria knows that. Kang Jun gives a long look and stares at Maria.

“Did you do my research? ”

“Ah, ah, no?! Well, it's just that my friend, um... He's the vice president of a really big company. Find out if it's a sound company. Huh? I hope so... Isn't that right?”

“If you can't even tell a lie, just admit it. ”

Maria sighs deeply as Choi Kang Jun speaks with a fat expression. Then, I glared at Kang Jun.

“Yes... No, of course not. ”

“Really? Let me tell you why I've been doing background checks. ”

Maria frowned when Choi Kang-jun ridiculed her.

“It's been six years since you stopped working at Union, hasn't it? Seven years, if you look a little bit longer. ”

“Yes."

“Six years after leaving Union, I allied with the vice president of a large corporation, Templar, and then the Songhwa Group. I was also involved in the assassination... Huh? Something, doesn't it smell? And you're the one who killed the organs. You know this isn't just a question of saying you're talented. ”

Maria was talking to Kang Jun with a firm expression. This was not said as a friend, but as a Union member. A little hostility, Maria said.

“We know that this expansion of your indiscriminate power is not just because of your racist appetite. ”

We are not fools. I only believe you because you're my friend. That's why they say they've done some background checks. They were sitting on the couch and talking, but the atmosphere of the conversation was as cold as walking on ice.

“Kang Jun... ”

Maria calls Gangjun that for no reason. Mary came in person to congratulate you, but in the end, she didn't have any official business.

“You know that. That you have a force so great that you're in danger. ”

If Kang Jun was Union and someone else had gained such immense power as Kang Jun, then Union would have already eliminated him in the past or would have been watching over him as an intense surveillance target.

“Are you here to celebrate or to warn me? ”

When Kang Jun mumbled in the ballmen, Maria inhaled a can of beer that snowman drank.

“Both, and one more. ”

There is something to celebrate the inauguration, but there is something to warn about.

“I know you're a frog, so you won't listen to us. Maybe that's what we want you to stop expanding. ”

“What do you mean, you want businessmen to stop expanding or die? ”

“Don't be lazy. I'm not kidding. ”

Maria looks at Gangjun as if she really doesn't want to talk nonsense. Union may seriously want to eliminate the strongest standards. Choi Jun's plot was becoming increasingly abrasive, so Union also felt the need for warnings.

But Union is Union. I don't think I'll be able to control the longest strap.

“Congratulations on being president. I'm saying this as a friend. ”

Maria adds.

“And stop expanding. This is from Union. And lastly, the most important thing. ”

And finally, the most important message.

“Within the year, a portal will open in Salt Lake City, Utah, North America. ”

“! ”

“It's three times the size. ”

“What, what? ”

Portal, meaning a phenomenon unlike any other.

Soon,

It is referred to as Grand Ragnarok. Maria said, staring at Gangjun.

“Cooperate with your forces on the Second Grand Ragnarok takeover. Then I'll close my eyes to your insubordinate expansion. Once the foundation of the Ark is complete, I will forgive you for any plots you may have. ”

Whatever you're up to, we just need to get to the second Red Core. Although he was guessing the strongest fears, he said that he would accept everything if Choi Jun only used his forces in the secondary GR.

“This is a deal. ”

Celebrate, warn, and trade. For these three words, Maria is here now. Even if GR erupts in the middle of the United States at three times the size before, the risk is insufficient. Kang Jun is a highly available individual in the world.

If the best standards cannot be stopped, use them. And since then, we've been saying that whatever you do has nothing to do with us. The second red core was that important to Union. I don't know if it didn't show up, but if it did, I had to.

With the second GR occurrence confirmed, Union will begin the final plan. Gangjun knew that too. It was a gesture of cooperation.

Some people think you're underestimating them, and some still don't want to hurt their friends.

“What do you want to do? ”

The answer to Maria's question was fixed. After all, the objective of Choi Jun is there. Rather, I had to take care of it myself.

“The deal is a threat. I have no choice.... ”

“Good.”

Maria smiles satisfactorily. Maria drank a sip of beer and gave it to Gangjun.

“Well, let's have a toast. ”

She smiles bitterly, saddened that she has to have this violent conversation with her friend. Maria and Kangjun have already come too far to go back in time.

How many times do I have to say something I don't want to say to a friend to make a toast? Kang Jun drank a sip of beer and laughed helplessly.

Something was coming, and I wasn't ready or at all ready for it. Kang Jun glanced at Maria's face for a moment, drinking beer.

“What are you looking at? ”

“Just.”

“Tsk.”

She just wanted a lot of thoughts floating in her head to be misunderstood and misunderstood.

By the end of the second GR, whatever the Best Standard conspiracy will be useless. Maria just wanted to feel that moment sooner.

Both of them, I wanted to say something, but they didn't say anything. Before, we could get to know each other without speaking. I knew what they were thinking, what they were feeling, each other.

They still know each other.

We knew each other even if we didn't talk about it in the past. So I didn't say.

But now, we can't say anything because we know each other. The moment you take out what you mean, it becomes reality. You know that reality will come, but you just can't let it out of your mouth.
