Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[Business trip]

[[Vice President Landlord]]

Large nameplate It was sitting neatly on the desk.

And next to the nameplate, the owner of the nameplate was reading something in an arrogant manner, leaning back on his chair with his legs crossed.

Baek Young-hee came into the office and said, putting down documents on the desk.

“manager. “Please pay for these documents.”

“…….”

“Team leader?”

The great man had no answer. It seemed as if he hadn’t heard anything.

Of course, there was no way I hadn’t heard it. The great man’s finger pointed at his nameplate on the desk.

[[Vice-CEO Landlord]]

The moment Baek Young-hee saw that, she let out a small sigh.

Daein’s promotion ceremony to vice president was just two days ago. That’s why she was still more used to being called team leader.

It seemed like the person involved had already adapted.

“Vice-team. Could you please pay for the documents?”

“Hmm. “Let me take a look.”

Only then did the great man put aside the list he was looking at and cleared his throat.

The great man glanced at the documents Baek Young-hee brought and nodded. Even though he was promoted to vice president, there was no significant difference in his workload.

“As expected, Secretary Back. The work done is great. Let’s handle it like this.”

Only Baek Young-hee, who works under him, has a lot of work to do.

‘I need to hire a few more office staff.’

Baek Young-hee, a workaholic, had no complaints about having more work.

Rather, considering the benefits Daein brought to the guild after joining the guild, even bowing was not enough.

Still… I didn’t think it would be a good idea to look out the window with my back turned like now.

Baek Young-hee said with a puzzled expression.

“manager. What drama are you filming? “I’m not a second-generation chaebol with a story…”

Daein said indifferently, looking out the window.

“Not the team leader, but the vice president.”

Baek Young-hee shook her head as if she had lost. Soon her eyes turned to the document Daein was looking at earlier.

“But what were you looking at?”

“Oh, let’s take a look at Younghee too.”

Daein turned around and handed the document he was holding to Baek Younghee.

In the end, this was something I had to ask Baek Young-hee to do.

Baek Young-hee asked with a puzzled look after checking the documents handed over by Dae-in.

“Is this a list of superhumans for each guild?”

“If you look closely, you will see my notes there.”

As I quickly flipped through the documents, I saw circles next to pictures of beginners. Next to the circle, there was also a short comment left by the person in charge.

– Top priority for recruitment

– Target for recruitment consideration

– Good skills, but personality issues

– Good value for money

In addition, there were a few graffiti-like comments such as ‘the guy who borrowed money and didn’t pay it back’ or ‘the guy who will catch me and beat me up’.

“What’s this?”

The great man sat down in his chair again, twirled the pen he was holding and said.

“I tried to select some candidates to recruit.”

Recently, the super guild industry in Seoul was shaken by an unexpected big event.

It’s been 15 days since Demon King Kim Tae-jin suddenly disappeared.

The black hound, which had lost its head, was unable to control its large body. It was slowly cracking.

Their downfall, which occupied a large portion of the industry, was also an opportunity for other competitors. Competitors began to delve into Blackhound’s territory.

Of course, there were still some guilds that were cautious, fearing that Kim Tae-jin might return, but

“now is a golden opportunity for us to expand our power without interference.”

Daein, who knew better than anyone else that Kim Taejin could not return, strongly expressed his opinion to the guild as soon as he became vice president.

His opinion was accepted.

Whitehouse, which had been cautious about expanding its power until now, took the lead.

They already had sufficient funds and reputation.

What remains is to recruit promising superhumans and increase their size. Whitehouse planned to expand the existing 7 teams to 10.

The great man spoke emphatically to Baek Young-hee.

“Make sure to recruit the three people who marked the list. “Even if it means paying all the penalties and doubling your annual salary.”

From the list of superhumans of all guilds currently existing in Seoul, Daein found three Daebaks.

Sword Demon Ahn Jae-hyun

, Pink Cat Kim Ha-

na, Stalker Woo Min-seok,

are ordinary or worse now, but they are all super people who will become famous in the future.

As technology developed and inter-dimensional movement became free, they were superhumans who would rapidly become stronger.

‘And when the dimensional terminal is completed in a few months, movement between dimensions will be accelerated several times. Those three will also become stronger much faster.’

Baek Young-hee took the list given by Dae-in. She was also Whitehouse’s general recruiting manager.

“All right. “I will definitely recruit you.”

If I were to exaggerate a bit, she was now going to believe it even if Daein said he made meju with red beans.

Whether it’s actually red beans or soybeans, it will be a huge benefit to the guild.

The great man stood up and said.

“Then, since I’ve done everything I have to do today, I’ll leave work first.”

Outside the window, the sun was high in the sky.

It wasn’t even lunch time yet.

Baek Young-hee was shocked by the majesty, but instead of stopping him, he sighed softly.

“Vice President. “You know that usually when you get promoted, your workload increases, right?”

The great man snorted and retorted.

“Even if you work half as hard as others, you earn more than 10 times more. If you work as efficiently as I do, you can leave work early. “Isn’t that right?”

“…I hate it even more because I can’t refute it.”

Even though Daein seemed to be very restless on a regular basis, whenever he went somewhere with 7 teams, he brought back a huge amount of loot.

Because of this, Team 7 was now classified as a special team. It was a method in which the master himself chose the work rather than going out on general missions.

To that extent, the benefits Daein brought to the guild and the guild’s trust in Daein were great.

“Oh right.”

Baek Young-hee said she almost forgot.

“Please go and see the CEO before you leave work. “I heard you two had something to talk about.”

“…What do you want to talk about? all right.”

What are you trying to talk about? Daein tilted his head and headed to the representative office.

**

Baek Chang-soo said with a meaningful expression.

“I’ll ask you straight. “Are you involved in Kim Tae-jin’s disappearance?”

Although the great man was upset on the inside, he did not show it on the outside and asked back calmly.

“yes? “What are you talking about?”

No evidence was left behind.

The bodies were disposed of perfectly, and even the forest was set on fire to erase all traces of the battle.

There was a high probability that Baek Chang-su just stabbed him once.

just as expected.

Baek Chang-su asked again with a confused expression.

“Isn’t it true?”

As expected, it was just something I thought about. Perhaps it is thanks to Baek Chang-soo’s superhuman senses.

‘Anyway, he doesn’t look like a human being.’

The great man said with an expression of resentment.

“Why are you making such an absurd misunderstanding? CEO. “Is it okay to not trust the vice president like this?”

Baek Chang-soo scratched his head and spoke in an uncertain voice.

“That’s it. “You smell like that unlucky guy.”

Then he sniffed, and Daein was shocked and impressed by his ability.

‘You smelled [darkness]?’

It wasn’t a matter of smell. Because the personality of a superhuman is not something you can smell. It must be some kind of extra sense he has.

In fact, Baek Chang-soo’s personality is not exactly known.

So there was talk that he was a superhuman with no personality, but the great man thought he might have some special ability.

“Well, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t ask any more questions. “That’s not why I asked to see you.”

Baek Chang-su began to tell Daein about the business he had asked to see.

The two talked for quite a long time. The topics were mainly the guild’s future operating direction and long-term goals.

Even the person who started the conversation with a light heart was soon engaging in it seriously. Knowing the future, he gave Baek Chang-su some necessary advice.

By the time the story ended, several hours had passed.

“Then can I just leave work?”

Baek Chang-soo smiled. He looked at the great man with a happy face.

“Thank you for today’s story. “It seems like only good things have happened to our guild since you came.”

“I am the lucky one who rolled over.”

At that moment, Baek Chang-soo said with a slightly mischievous expression.

“Do you know that there are rumors that you are aiming for my position?”

“yes?”

Baek Chang-soo said with a chuckle at Dae-in’s absurd expression.

“Let’s take a look at your actions so far. Didn’t you start as a team leader and already hold the position of vice president? From the outside, he might seem like a man full of ambition.”

“Yeah? “Me?”

The great man looked like he didn’t want to even imagine it.

A guild representative. The Maginot line that could be done ‘in moderation’ was limited to the vice president. The great man had no desire to become successful anymore.

However, Baek Chang-su still smiled and said.

“I think you’ll do well. I gained confidence from the conversation I just had. Be honest. “Aren’t you 20 years old?”

“Haha…”

The great man laughed with an ambiguous expression. Baek Chang-su looked at him with warm eyes and said.

“I think it would be okay to entrust the guild to someone better than me. “When I think about the future, it would be better to have someone younger and more capable than me.”

A soft voice.

Baek Chang-soo’s eyes, as he gazed at Dae-in, contained a certain determination.

“Of course it’s going to be difficult right now. But in about 10 years… then our Younghee will also be fully married…”

“Wait a minute.”

Before the atmosphere could get any more strange, the great man waved his hand.

“CEO. Let me be clear. I will retire long before you. And don’t get involved with Younghee and me, right?”

Baek Chang-soo nodded with an expression that he understood everything. That somehow made him even more angry.

“Well, I say that now. “If you change your mind, let me know at any time.”

‘Am I crazy?’

Once all disasters were dealt with, Daein planned to live leisurely, using White House as the best backdrop.

A world where there is nothing to worry about anymore.

A life of traveling to various dimensions on a dimensional terminal being built in the yard of the house, visiting delicious restaurants, and lounging around in different villas for each season.

In that beautiful life, there was no troublesome work like running a guild.

The great man looked at the enormous pile of documents on Baek Chang-soo’s desk and shook his head.

“Ugh. “I’ll just leave work.”

“Be careful when going. “Think carefully about the conversation we had today.”

“I’ll assume you didn’t hear the last part.”

“Well. “That’s the key.”

The great man bowed his head and came out.

Behind my back, I said, ‘Be careful. Succession….’ After hearing that, I slammed the door.

“…I have to be careful not to get my nose pierced.”

As Daein was heading to his lodgings and reiterating his resolve, he received a call from Kiri in the Lolow Autonomous District.

Kiri’s voice over the phone was not very good.

-There is a problem with the terminal.

Daein said he would go right away.

***

Crackling, crackling-!

Magical energy was bouncing fiercely between the five metal pillars erected in a circle.

Meanwhile, the gate was opening and closing repeatedly.

As soon as the great man arrived, Kiri explained the situation in detail.

“I did open the gate to [Murim], the coordinates of which were given to me. But as you can see, it is in a very unstable state.”

Daein looked at the martial arts scene beyond the gate.

Crackling, crackling!

The place kept changing.

Familiar oriental-style houses were seen, as well as plaques of martial arts sects kicking off the ground as if flying, and beasts and spirits that could not be found on Earth in an unknown cave were also seen.

The great man asked.

“Is it a problem that the gate position is not fixed?”

“Rather than that, the passage is unstable and there is a risk of it closing or disappearing during movement.”

Even Daein knew what would happen if that happened. He could have disappeared forever as a lost child in another dimension or fallen into a completely different dimension.

The great man said, scratching his chin.

“Is it too early yet?…”

Originally, it would be four years before the Moorim opened.

However, it was expected that the gate to Moorim could be opened early by using the dimension terminal.

Kiri also said that was possible.

However, it seems that something was lacking to already open the gate that will open in 4 years.

‘If this happens, the plan goes awry…’

Daein had work to do when he went to Wurim.

First, I planned to find the Changcheonshingeom, the Geomwang’s poisonous weapon, and learn the three-second method of the Pacheonshingeom hidden within it.

On top of that, he also brought along appropriate martial arts supplies and elixirs for use by the guild’s superhumans.

If the guild’s superhumans learn martial arts before the third disaster begins, they can easily deal with it.

I could have waited a few months for the gate to stabilize, but I felt uncomfortable about doing that.

‘The second disaster also started earlier than planned. There’s no law preventing the third from starting early…’

The great man said, looking back at Kiri.

“Is there no way at all?”

Kiri said with an uncertain expression.

“If there is an object from the other dimension here, it may be possible to stabilize the passage. But the conditions are strict…”

“Medium?”

Even adults had heard of that concept.

When creating a passage connecting dimensions, the stability of the passage could be increased if there were objects from this side in the other dimension.

“Is this okay?”

Daein took out the Geomhwangbirok from his pocket. It was now folded and frayed in places because I had read it to the point of exhaustion.

But Kiri shook his head.

“To be a medium, it must have sufficient size and strength. The height and width must be at least 2 meters to stably withstand the horsepower of the gate.”

“Hmm….”

In reality, it was not an easy condition.

It was difficult to find Moorim items on Earth, and there were very few items that met those requirements.

But

“I just need to meet those conditions, right?”

“Huh? That’s true, but…”

The great man knew several locations where there were items that met those exacting conditions.

The closest one among them was….

The great man’s eyes turned towards the north.

*

The next day, Daein met Baek Changsu and spoke.

“I’m going on a business trip for a few days.”

“Where are we going this time?”

“I want to go to North Korea and come back.”
