Civil Service Hunter’s S-level Resignation Log - Chapter 7
The two-day break that felt as sweet as honey is over. Seo-ra went to work at the association with a heavy chest.
As soon as she entered the office, everyone came running while shedding tears.
“Seo-ra, are you alive? Are your arms and legs still intact?!”
“Oh my God, she lost half of her weight in three days! I thought she was a corpse!”
“The positions of her eyes, nose, and mouth remain the same! I’m glad, I’m very glad!”
“…….”
They seemed to be worried, but as she listened, something strange happened.
It’s only natural that her limbs are perfectly attached. Do they want her to become a corpse? And why are they worried about the location of her eyes, nose, and mouth?
【Admin : ∠( ᐛ 」∠)_】
Even her contractor is lying down watching this skit. Seo-ra looked around with blank eyes for a moment.
“I have good limbs, I haven’t lost any weight, and my features are well placed, so don’t worry.”
“Anyways, the Blue Guild are bastards! If we meet them, we’ll glare at them!”
If others heard that, they would be dumbfounded, but Seo-ra wasn’t.
All of the association’s civil servants are ones who should put the safety of the people first. It was absurd to fight with a large guild due to personal feelings.
That’s why Seo-ra knew they meant that they would do the best they could. To be honest, she was grateful that they cared for her that much.
“Oh, where is the manager? I should thank him.”
Those who had been talking with excitement were suddenly stunned by those words.
“Uh, the manager isn’t here now.”
“He must have gone out.”
“He might be working outside.”
“Huh?”
There was something strange about the way they rolled their eyes as if they were flustered.
“What happened to the chief?”
“The manager is currently on probation.”
A surprising answer came back. Seo-ra opened her eyes wide and looked back. Jung Tae-seok had a bitter look on his face.
“On probation? The manager?”
“Someone else will explain that. The president of the association is looking for you, so go up there.”
“What? The president of the association……?”
Seo-ra blinked her eyes. Uh, he’s never looked for someone so openly.
“Maybe he has a few questions about what happened at the park.”
Seo-ra nodded at Tae-seok’s comment.
“I will go.”
“Yeah, yeah. Let’s go eat something delicious for lunch. It’s on me!”
“Hey, chief! Me too!”
“Me too, me too! Should we get an expensive meal?
“You’re all noisy!”
Jeong Tae-seok’s words quickly made a fuss.
Seo-ra shook her head thinking they acted like the same person and left the office.
The president’s office was on the top floor of the headquarters.
* * *
The Korea Awakening Management Association was an institution that managed not only all the hunters but also dungeons and gates in Korea.
Unless there is an emergency, such as a dungeon break, where monsters rush out, all guilds must get permission to attack through the association.
Awakeners must register with the association when they are newly awakened, and in the event of their crimes, the association shall directly supervise the punishment.
In other words, it was the law that all ranked people in Korea must abide by the rules of the association.
In a way, it seemed like dictatorship, but thanks to the existence of the association, the damage of the awakened had been reduced in Korea, and the attack of the dungeons had been carried out efficiently.
All of it was due to the power of the association president, who directly sat in the highest place after establishing the association.
Hanna Song.
Among the 11 S-classes in Korea —now including Seo-ra, there are 12— she is a powerful person who is ranked number one.
This person in front of Yoon Seo-ra now is the one who made all of this out of nothing.
“You’ve lost half your weight, hunter Yoon Seo-ra. Tsk tsk. But it’s a relief that the location of your eyes, nose, and mouth are still well attached. How are your arms and legs?”
“…….”
Is it just me? I think my colleagues said the same thing earlier.
“You know everything about this, don’t you?”
“Huh? What?”
It was a very attractive smile, as if she didn’t know anything. The point on the corner of her mouth, which was revealed through black short hair, was particularly prominent.
Hanna Song is one of the first-generation Awakeners, and although she is close to fifty, she still maintains her early thirties appearance thanks to her outstanding abilities.
In addition to that, it was hard to guess the age of the person who is called the strongest in the country, adding to her atmosphere that can not be touched.
She was still a fascinating person, and her constantness was very frightening.
“It was you, the president of the association, wasn’t it?”
However, Seo-ra did not hesitate in the slightest when she was alone with Hanna Song.
“Of course. Who else in the association would tell Jae-heon about you?”
They’ve known each other for a long time.
Hanna Song was a close friend of Seo-ra’s mother, who passed away when she was at the young age of twelve.
It was also her who helped Seo-ra become an adult and a civil servant when she was awakened to F-level.
Of course, it didn’t do much good to know about this, so few people knew about the relationship between them even within the association.
“Is Jae-heon coming to Korea?”
“I told him not to come. There are no serious injuries anywhere.”
“Is that right? I think Jae-heon was very angry. If Chief Do hadn’t beaten Park Jin-yong until he was bloody, he would have come in no matter what you said.”
“So, I’m happy. I don’t want to be noticed because my brother came into the spotlight. But why was Chief Do sentenced to probation?”
What did that hardworking and conscientious person do wrong? When Seo-ra asked that question, Hanna burst out laughing as if she had heard something very funny.
“It couldn’t be helped! He destroyed the park, a public place. And who is he? He’s a government official under the state.”
“……Well.”
Seo-ra didn’t even think of it because she was focusing on destroying Park Jin-yong.
“It’s because of me. I’m sorry……”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Well, he got a two-month pay cut for the restoration of the park, but Chief Do wouldn’t mind that.
“Ahhh.”
Seo-ra grabbed her hair even more shamelessly.
Anyways, how many people have to suffer because of that guy Park Jin-yong! Seo-ra heard he was admitted to the hospital, but he should just be discharged.
“Stand straight. What are you so sorry for?”
When Seo-ra clenched her fists and burned with a feeling for revenge, Hanna Song laughed as if she were cute.
“Huh?”
“You saw it. I mean, chief Do made a very ignorant A-grade suffer. There’s no way you, who were quick to pick up on things, didn’t notice that the gap shouldn’t be that big in the same rank.”
Her lips drew an alluring smile. Seo-ra smiled bitterly.
“……Chief Do was really an S-class.”
She had already seen Do Joon-young’s information, but she spoke in a way that made it sound like she guessed on purpose.
Although Hanna Song is the most reliable member of the association, Seo-ra decided that it would be better to keep the contract with the manager secret, even from her.
【Admin : (´•▽•`)b】
The administrator also agreed with that idea.
“Currently, there are eleven S-grade members in Korea. The only person whose name is not known among them is Chief Do.”
‘She doesn’t even know that I have become number twelve yet.’
When will she notice? Seo-ra was curious about it, but asked something else.
“Why did he hide his identity? Did he really need to?”
“Mr. Do wanted to. He said he was worried that he wouldn’t know if he was still a member of the guild, and what he would have to see or do if he were an official S-level.”
Well, that’s understandable.
The gap between S-class and A-class was as great as the difference between heaven and earth, and everyone would have noticed him.
Citizens had high expectations for them.
She was not sure if it were the same for Hanna Song, the president of the association, but for him, who had to work hard on the field as the head of the management office, it would have been somewhat inconvenient.
“So, you don’t have to worry about Mr. Do because he has a precious skill level. He is being paid a higher salary than what is known. Salary reductions and probation are just tricks to hide the fact he’s an S-class that receives benefits from the state.”
“Still, I can’t help but feel sorry for him going through something that he shouldn’t have because of me.”
“Stand tall, my sweet niece. You are mistaking one thing.”
Hanna Song waved her black nail polish fingers. As soon as gold sparkled on her long fingers, Seo-ra’s upper body was pulled forward.
“Ah!”
As the distance between the two of them narrowed, Hanna Song gently stroked Seo-ra’s cheek.
“You are the victim who almost died because of that bastard who tried to kill you. You are Chief Do’s and mine subordinate. It is only natural for us to take revenge instead of you, who is weaker.”
“…….”
It must have been the same for all S-classes, but standing in front of Hanna Song’s alluring smile made her feel overwhelmed.
Do Joon-young wasn’t this bad either. After all, the person who maintained the number one spot in Korea for decades is different.
Seo-ra swallowed her saliva.
“……Aunt, do you want to hit Park Jin-yong too?”
It was the first time she called Hanna Song aunt after becoming a civil servant. Hanna knew that too, so she smiled very excitedly.
“He dared to touch you, but do I just want to hit him? Since he made my niece’s precious blood shed, wouldn’t it be worthwhile for Han Su-eon to come and bang his head in too?”
‘Han Su-eon, the blue guild leader, hitting him. That being said, I think I saw it at an S-class social club or, no, community a couple of days ago.’
‘Does aunt see that kind of community often……?’
It was a little sad, it lamented that the S-levels are just crazy.
“Anyways, when Chief Do’s probation is over, Han Su-eon and Park Jin-yong will decide to visit the association. Han Su-eon said that Park Jin-yong would officially apologize to you, so what are you going to do?”
“Am I really going to get an apology?”
“It’s your freedom. You can choose not to come. I’m just asking whether you will meet him or not. I was worried that if you saw Jin-Yong Park, you would remember what happened that day.”
Oh, yeah. Had it not been for the system administrator, she would have just died, far from even being able to remember what had happened that day.
It’s true that it’s a situation that would leave trauma.
‘Thanks to the contract with the admin, I became S-class, so the psychological shock was completely offset……’
Wouldn’t the psychological shock of witnessing the manager’s emoticon be greater?
“But why does the president of the association want me to meet him?”
Before deciding, Seo-ra asked Hannah.
When it came to overprotection, Hanna Song is worse than Do Joon-young, so why does she want her to meet him? The answer was simple.
“You should see him and Han Su-eon kneel in front of you and bang their heads. Don’t you want to? Of course my niece would.”
When Hanna Song’s finger tickled her jaw, Seo-ra coughed out. Oh my. She knew Seo-ra too well
‘Of course, I don’t want to be satisfied with that alone. Park Jin-yong, you bastard, I will surely find you later and smash you properly in the back of the head.’
While giving Hanna Song a broad smile, Seo-ra made a promise like that.
“I called you here because I have another thing to say.”
Seo-ra tilted her head. There’s something else to talk about?
“Let’s get you an S grade weapon.”
That, that was something very terrifying.
