The Protagonists Are Murdered by Me

Chapter 63 – Great principles of harem

When you worked as a hunter, it was inevitable for your identity to be exposed to the public. Nowadays, Hunters were treated as a celebrity, but in the past, there were quite a few Hunters who were reluctant to disclose their real name because there were quite a lot of Villain Hunters who hunted Hunters who misused their supernatural powers.

Wi-Hoon, a 16 years old (?) Veteran hunter, was a Chinese ex-hunter who used a pseudonym. He possessed an A-rank superpower, and he’s also the guild master of Silingwin guild.

He turned into a businessman after retiring from hunter world 8 years ago. These days, where there was an implicit rule that stated that a guild master must be an incumbent hunter, his position as a retired hunter had put him in a disadvantageous position. He was a man who successfully overcame those hurdles by leading the guild through operations and strategies.

Although it was ruined.

In the past his guild had more than 100 hunters, but now there were only about 20 hunters left. But, unfortunately for Wi-hoon, those 20 hunters did not trust him. It was only a matter of time before they left the guild.

The fire broke out on his feet.

A guild which had hunters working for them was similar to a private military company. The documents they had to fill out to create the guild were as tall as adult men, and even if they got an approval, who knew how long they had to run to increase the maximum capacity of the guilds.

Everything he tried so far was going to come to naught. The maximum capacity of the Silingwin guild was 150 people, which was equivalent to a medium-sized guild. But, as the number of hunters contracted to the guild kept decreasing, the pressure to reduce the maximum capacity of the guild had begun.

Investors from Silingwin Guild were also slowly beginning to criticize him by holding a shareholder’s meeting. Wi-hoon finally realized that the Silingwin guild might disappear altogether.

He could never let that happen.

He would like to get his Hunter’s card reissued. But it was already too late now and his pride wouldn’t allow it too.

At that time, he heard news from Korea.

‘Yoo Seodam…’

He had an ability that was not a superpower. It was an ability that could be learned by incompetent people. Currently, the news of him and his ability was taking the world by storm.

So Wi-hoon immediately contacted Yoo seodam.

Wi-hoon knew Yoo Seodam’s character. Before he retired from being a Hunter, he spent eight years with Yoo Seodam.

Among the eight hunters, Wi-hoon’s talent could be considered among the weakest. It was a clumsy manifestation of superpowers.

The type of his ability was common. It was hard for him to get some attention. Moreover, he was bad at fighting.

However, he always found comfort when he looked at one boy. That boy was Yoo Seodam, a loser without superpowers.

Perhaps due to the fact that Wi-hoon was able to strengthen his body, he used to torment Seodam whenever he had time. Whenever that happened, Seodam neither resisted nor retorted. In his memory, Yoo Seodam was just an incompetent with such a personality.

At least he hoped that Yoo Seodam would be afraid of him. Afterall, Yoo Seodam was someone who handed over the last piece of meat he was eating when Wi-hoon demanded him to.

Of course, there was no way he would remain such a fool even now. Perhaps by now, people from all over the world were trying to get Yoo Seodam to their side. They would come to him with a lot of things to offer. But compared to what he had to offer, it was insignificant.

Wi-hoon didn’t want Seodam to demand him to say sorry. So, he came up with something only he could give.

It was the ‘things’ that Yoo Seodam lost eight years ago.

He was going to present a secret that no one but himself had known so far.

“Please wait a little bit. He said he’ll be here soon.”

And so, Wi-hoon was now in Korea to meet Yoo Seodam. Next to him, there were three representatives from companies that sponsored guilds and also representatives from the Hunter Association.

Lee Hyun-sang, a representative

from ‘Cage Industries.’ A company that was involved in the defense industry by producing Hunter’s weapons.

Then there was a representative from ‘Reger’, the leading producer of Hunter’s armor and other equipment.

An agency that asked for Gates and Dungeons where Hunter could act, ‘Antena dotcom’.

And ‘Hunter’s Association Headquarters’ that came to judge the Guild’s eligibility.

All of these companies were global companies that couldn’t be taken lightly.

In order for a Hunter to be active, it was imperative for him to come in contact with defense industries and bizarre companies that supported high-quality equipment, and a good agency that identified Gates and Dungeons faster than anyone else and arranged the most appropriate ‘work’ for the guild to operate.

On top of that, the Hunter’s Association headquarters was reviewing whether to scale down the guild, increase it, or eliminate the guild.

‘This is the chance!’

The reason why the representative followed Wi-hoon to Korea was because they are also very interested in the existence of ‘ideal ability.’ If he could get Yoo Seodam to join his guild, his future would be set.

“Oh, there he is.”

Their current location was a restaurant in a hotel. Yoo Seodam arrived wearing the suit he had received from Celeste the other day. It was luxurious in its own way, but he felt awkward because he didn’t wear it often

“Ha ha, Seodam, it’s been a while.”

“Right, It’s been a while.”

Yoo Seodam stared at Wi-hoon. He thought for a moment that Wi-hoon was a good-looking man with a brazen face.

‘This bastard… Doesn’t he remember that he retired after betraying me?’

‘This bastard… Doesn’t he remember that he retired after betraying me?’

Yoo Seodam kept his expression under control. It was because the four people who came with Wi-hoon were more important.

‘Hwang Jae-gun.’

Originally, Yoo Seodam was going to meet Wi-hoon and give him a good scolding. But now he could see that he contacted him to appease himself. But the plan had changed.

Wi-hoon was much better off than Seodam originally thought. He was still useful.

Yoo Seodam grinned and brazenly said to Wi-hoon.

“That’s right. I told you I’d bring a guest, too, right?”

“Oh? Uh, of course. But who…?”

“There he is…”

As Seodam looked behind him, a handsome man who was nearly 190 centimeters tall and handsome approached him with a soft smile. When he found Wi-hoon, the man waved lightly and asked the other four to shake hands politely. Then he said.

“Wi-hoon. It’s been a long time since we last met. I’ve missed you.”

“Right, How many years has it been? Ryu Jin-soo.”

Ryu Jin-soo. A man, who like Wi-hoo,  began to walk the path of a Guild Master. He was also a Guild Master and a retired hunter just like Wi-hoon.

However, the two had different walking routes.

While Wi-hoon was walking towards the abyss, Ryu Jin-soo’s guild was getting more and more worthy of its name.

Ryu Jin-soo’s guild, ‘Leyton One’, was a guild consisting of a small number of elite people, and was characterized by his participation in big dungeons and Gates without taking on petty duties.

“Oh. Aren’t you the master of Leyton one? I really wanted to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you.”

When Ryu Jin-soo appeared, Wei-hoon’s face gradually hardened. He glanced at the Yoo Seodam. He didn’t have to talk to him to find out what’s on his mind.

‘This bastard, he’s trying to screw me up, me?’

Ryu Jin-soo and Wi-hoon were not on good terms. In fact, Wi-hoon hated Ryu Jin-soo one sidedly. The reason was simple. Ryu Jin-soo was superior to him in every aspect. Their guild situation itself may be similar, but all 20 guild members belonging to Ryu Jin-soo’s guild Layton One were S-rankers, and he was also a S-rank superhuman.

And, unlike other guilds today, which were a kind of commercialized, Leyton One was in the spotlight around the world because it was a guild that maintained the ‘traditional’ approach of protecting.

Ryu Jin-soo was a master of a winning guild, while Wi-hoon was a master of a losing guild.

So, Wi-hon was constantly jealous of Ryu Jin-soo.

‘Why the hell did he get attached to Yoo Seodam?’

Wi-hon gritted his teeth and looked at Ryu Jin-soo.

At first glance, Ryu Jin-soo may seem friendly to everyone because he had a soft impression and gentle way of speaking. However, he was the coolest hunter and businessman ever.

However, Ryu Jin-soo had been taking care of Yoo Seodam since long ago, even when everyone told him there was no ‘benefit’ in doing so. Yoo Seodam himself seemed very reluctant to receive his favor as if he knew something. But, the important thing right now was the fact that Ryu Jin-soo was also here.

And, the most serious problem was that with the appearance of Ryu Jin-soo, the master of Leyton One who wasn’t sponsored by any company, it made the business agent pay extra attention to him.

‘No. I don’t care about that. As long as I could somehow bring Yoo Seodam to my guild….’

Then, Yoo Seodam opened his mouth.

“Haha, yes. Actually, I’ve created a temporary guild. And in the future, I’m thinking of creating a guild.”

Everyone fell silent at his words..

The creation of the guild was a sensitive issue. Even Wi-hoon glanced at him in bewilderment, but the agent dispatched from the headquarters of the Hunter’s Association told him with a cool look.

“As Yoo Seodam Hunter-nim knows, to establish a guild, you need at least three teams and 15 guild members. In addition, one of the teams must be able to carry C-rank missions or above.”

Conditions flowed out of the mouths of the Association’s representative. Guilds were now a group of supermen who possessed the power of arms, and were bound to be a very sensitive issue.

And then, Ryu Jin-soo opened his mouth.

“Yes. That’s why I’m thinking of joining our guild.”

“You mean a Union?”

It was an unfamiliar word these days. But in the past, before guilds became a corporation, when Hunters existed purely for the purpose of forming a team, there existed a ‘union’, a way for two guilds to become one and perform a mission together.

Wi-hoon trembled.

Yes. Regardless of whether Ryu Jin-soo had shown favor to Yoo Seodam so far, what he did right now was simply a favor to a man named Yoo Seo-dam. There was no way a cold businessman like Ryu jin-soo would come here for nothing. All of them came here because there was a profit they could get.

‘Don’t tell me, you’ve been planning for this since the beginning?’

Wi-hoon looked at Yoo Seodam. However, Yoo Seodam didn’t even care about him. He was busy having a conversation with the five people here.

Wi-hoon was sure that Yoo Seodam knew that he came to recruit him to his guild. But Yoo Seodam still came to take advantage of him.

‘You son of a gun…”

Wi-hoon didn’t like the fact that Yoo Seodam, who had been incompetent all of his life, was standing proudly because of his ability. When Wi-hoon clenched his teeth tighter, Ryu Jin-soo looked at him and said.

“What’s the matter? Wi-hoon. You don’t look very well.”

“…..!”

It was a question out of pure goodwill. That man, who was always cool and sharp, had boundless warmth to those who come within his ‘boundary’. And, Wi-hoon was also within the confines of that Ryu Jin-soo.

The reason for it was.

‘Nana, in your eyes, Yoo Seodam was someone to be protected, right?’

Ryu Jin-soo was a S-rank Superhuman while Yoo Seodam was an incompetent. In his mind, it was natural, because he had achieved even the A-rank recently. So he felt even more disgusted.

“Excuse me, I’m going to the bathroom.”

He couldn’t reveal his emotion. Things are going bad here but he believes there will be a way somehow.

As Wi-hoon rose from his seat, Seodam, who was staring at his back, smiled and followed him.

“Let me go to the bathroom, too.”
