My Dad Is Too Strong
Daddy's too strong. Lesson 82.
Hunters belonging to the Crack Management Division of Seoul City Hall.
Most people wait at home if nothing special happens.
New cracks of Class C or lower are observed, problems of cracks managed by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, or orders to be called up during patrols, so they will go to work at the crack management department.
I also go to work on a day of 'regular physical strengthening' that I get once a month.
To receive physical strength.
The hunters were huddled together in the break room attached to the crack management office. They poked out their heads and gazed at Cha Ye-ji, who was chatting merrily.
To be exact, Lee Do-joon, next to Cha Ye-ji.
"You didn't show up today."
"So you're going with your assistant today?"
"Speak softly. Listen to your assistant."
The assistant was called Lee Do-joon's nickname, called among hunters contracted with the Seoul Metropolitan Government.
The nickname was given to the hunters because they thought it was like an assistant, seeing Dojun move according to the field manual (FM) while moving according to the set process.
Besides, there was one most decisive reason.
"I want to be an assistant, too...…."
"Crazy guy."
"No. Aren't you envious of him?"
It was a sudden change.
Since Lee Do-joon was in a car accident and went to work the next day.
He stammered and couldn't do his job properly, so he mocked me from behind, saying, "I think I've suddenly gotten taller, I think I've gotten better, and I've gotten handsome."
Since then, he has become the ace of crack management with Kwon Hyuk-soo.
But that's not what matters to Hunters.
The newly signed Hunter Cha Ye-ji of Class F has grown rapidly in recent months and is now the best among contract hunters.
"I envy you... ...for God's sake."
Hunters were assuming that Cha Ye-ji's rapid growth was due to Do-jun's teachings.
I don't know what he taught me, but I couldn't think of anything else.
Crucially, Cha Ye-ji was acting like a chick following Do-joon around like a father.
"Excuse me, assistant. Everyone be quiet."
Dojun was walking.
***
'I can hear you, you bastards.'
entering the lounge with a grim look on the face.
Do-jun, who passed by the whistling hunters and put the A4 file on the round table, sat down, smiled and gestured with a chair.
It meant to shut up and sit down.
"Because you're not here today, I'm going to follow Hunter's office on behalf. I've already seen your physical strength data......... Is there anyone who drank yesterday and today or is not feeling well?"
No one raises their hands.
In a way, it was a natural result.
Because it was the day to promote Mana, the most important thing for Hunters.
Is there any reason to blow it up when strengthening it through expensive mana stones?
"Like last time, we will proceed with strengthening our body with grade C mana stone. If you want to get a higher grade mana stone, please tell us now."
The average unit price of Mana Stone rated C is about 1 million won.
Up until five years ago, it was 30 million won on average, but as the supply increased over time, the price gradually dropped to 1 million.
For hunters, 1 million won was the same as the price of gum, so even if they got a Mana Stone of Grade B or higher and received physical strength, the amount of Mana absorbed by the high grade Mana Stone did not increase significantly, so the contract hunters were satisfied with Class C Mana Stone supported by the Crack Management Division.
Most of the hunters couldn't fully absorb the mana of grade C mana.
Then a man raised his hand.
It was Ahn Young-guk, an E-class hunter in charge of Kwon Hyuk-soo.
"Excuse me, assistant."
"Yes."
Ahn Young-guk called him 'an assistant' without realizing it.
At the same time that the eyes of the hunters around him were wide open.
I poked him in the waist with my elbow.
Realizing that he had made a mistake, Ahn stammered in embarrassment.
"Well, it's not that. Officer in charge."
"Speak."
Hunters breathed a sigh of relief at Do-jun, whose expression remained unchanged despite being said to be an assistant. Do you already know about your nickname? Hunters who think they should be careful next time anyway.
"Isn't Cha Ye-ji going with you?...... I'm just asking because I'm curious."
Are you getting any special physical strength?
Is she the only one giving preferential treatment?
They were hunters who had always been suspicious.
Dojun answered, shaking his head.
"I'm not going. Cha Ye-ji is not supported by Mana Stone in our department, but she is personally being strengthened. Do you have any other questions?"
In fact, even if you don't get physical strength,
Due to the effect of S-level skills and academic discipline, Mana is only rising whenever training is conducted.
However, I intentionally hid the fact because it was obvious that something annoying would happen if I mentioned it.
There were no additional questions.
Actually, I had a lot of questions.
It was a bit burdensome to talk to Do-jun, so I started to save my words without realizing it.
"I used to be a total stranger to us.'
It was a common idea among Hunters.
Except for Dojun, most of the crack management staff treated them as if they saw them. From the perspective of City Hall, they knew how difficult it was to sign with hunters, so they took the invisible hierarchy for granted.
Of course, it wasn't that Do-jun treated Hunters recklessly.
The basic courtesy in dealing with people was naturally observed.
Unlike others, however, he was speaking on an equal footing without lowering himself.
'What is the source of that confidence?'
The contract hunters didn't know.
Who's up and who's down.
They really didn't know.
Nothing at all.
***
Hunter Administration is on alert, not emergency.
The 15 Seoul City contract hunters who were booked at 2 p.m. today were replaced by Lee Do-joon, not Kwon Hyuk-soo.
It was 1 p.m. that I knew the fact.
I received a call from Do-joon that an employee of the physical strength reception room on the first floor would visit instead of Kwon Hyuk-soo, who was originally a reservation.
The cause of the incident was that a staff member of the secretariat accidentally found out about the incident and reported it to Director Chung Young-chul.
"Tell the management to come to the main hall on the first floor now."
The aide urgently instructed the staff of the secretary's office.
It was the instructions of Jung Young-chul.
Last week, the Behimos Guild cleared the first stage of the central tutorial zone.
Jung Young-chul invited Do-joon to a nice dinner at the hotel.
I don't like that.
after hearing the answer that
Jung Young-chul was looking forward to the day when Do-jun visited Hunter Management Office.
It was all thanks to Dojun's attack book that was making progress in the center.
The attack on the center of the Behimos Guild spread not only to Korea but also to the rest of the world, and the public's opinion of Chung Young-chul and the Hunter Administration turned friendly, so they wanted to repay it.
a sharp angle
All dressed up in suits, the Hunter Administration Board members walk to the main hall on the first floor.
I knew that the reason they were called up was because of Lee Do-joon, a civil servant at the Seoul City Hall, but I was not sure exactly why the director was calling them just because he was visiting.
However, the director's instructions were like heaven, and he had no choice but to follow them.
Board members lined up in front of the revolving door on the first floor entering Hunter's Administration Bureau.
a roaring roar
"Beh, Behimos Guild!"
"And Director Hunter?"
"What's all of a sudden?"
"People over there seem to be high people...…."
"I have the head of the Crack Research Center."
The door of the elevator opens.
Three Behimos guild members, along with Chung Young-chul and his aide, got off.
People passing by the main hall pointed their fingers and opened their eyes wide.
Bug.
The waiting board members bow to Jung Young-chul.
And the board members lined up on both sides, centering on Jung Young-chul and Behimos Guild.
Just after I saw the wristwatch going past 1:30 p.m.
Jung Young-chul stared at the revolving door with his attention set.
***
Contract hunters from the subway were grumbling up the escalator.
Last time, when I went to get physical strength with Kwon Hyuk-soo, four people in pairs came comfortably by taxi, and Do-joon's contract hunters had no travel expenses.
He explained that he took the subway with the travel expenses of 20,000 won paid to him.
"I'll give you a cab back. I didn't know you'd feel so uncomfortable."
"Director, we're very precious. Please don't forget."
"Yes, I know."
Okay.
Chief Kang Chul-soo takes care of you.
Do-joon got off the escalator with a giggle.
Then he looked up and looked through the Hunter Administration building, which was raised as high as he could reach the sky. He arranged the hunters and checked his wristwatch.
It's almost 2 p.m., the time for reservation.
"Let's get in."
Throbbing.
Hunters follow Dojun.
Enter the front gate of Hunter's administration.
***
Entering the entrance
The eyes of the contract hunters grow bigger, and I gulp down without realizing it.
with the management standing in line with the Director of Hunter Management.
At the center of it were the hunters of Behimos, Korea's number one guild, which has never been met in person.
Why are those people standing like that? It was the moment when the contract hunters were trying to get out of their way.
"......what, what?"
eminent figures including the director
Because he was bowing 90 degrees toward them.
They looked into whether there was a president near them.
By all appearances there was no one to greet them politely.
Until you hear that.
"Welcome. Officer Lee Do-joon."
Jung Young-chul's deep voice resonates in the central hall.
At the moment, the contract hunters snapped their ears, wondering if they had heard it wrong.
He is the director of Hunter Management, who has the same influence as the president of a country.
There would be no reason to bow to a government official.
Hunters hurriedly turned their heads to look at Dojun.
He was sighing.
"No......."
Everyone's staring at me.
"What are you doing...…."
then
Lee Kang-hyun, a prosecutor, is approaching.
"I'm sorry if I've committed any disrespect, but......... I couldn't stand still when I heard the news of your coming. Please forgive me."
Contract hunters frozen in place.
He alternated between Do-joon and Lee Kang-hyun, poking his lips.
What the hell is going on here?
It was the same for the management to be puzzled.
I knew the director cared about a public servant named Lee Do-joon.
Why on earth? This much.
Besides, why is Behimos Guild so low-key to him?
"I heard you were visiting today because of the physical strength of your hunters."
Lee Kang-hyun looked over Lee Do-joon's shoulders at the hunters.
And the hunters, who had eye contact with Lee Kang-hyun, shrank.
Facing the No. 1 spot in the Korean Hunter Rankings?
It was very heavy for average D-hunters.
