My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 68
Episode 68. While in the Tower
I can’t understand the current situation at all.
What?
Seong Yu-mi and Jeong Chan-woo left the Association?
No matter how I think about it, it feels like a boring hidden camera prank, so I even searched it up on my phone.
“….”
Why is this actually real?
When I searched on my phone, it said that Seong Yu-mi and Jeong Chan-woo suddenly submitted their resignations and left the Association a week ago.
Seong Yu-mi had definitely said she would dispel the magic cast on Hyung-su-nim.
After that, I entered the Tower.
I spent about 2 weeks in the Tower before coming out.
That means something happened during those 2 weeks that caused Seong Yu-mi and Jeong Chan-woo to leave the Association….
‘What on earth happened?’
Seong Yu-mi is an S-rank Hunter.
Unless she turned into a Villain, there’s no way the Association would let Seong Yu-mi go.
Moreover, since Jeong Chan-woo, who’s called the strongest A-rank, also left together, it was much more likely they left for personal reasons.
Then what could those personal reasons be?
What was it that made both of them submit resignations and leave at the same time?
“-r-nim.”
No matter how much I rack my brain, I can’t find an answer.
I’ve already tried contacting them several times, but I can’t reach either of them.
What am I supposed to do?
“Mir-nim!”
“…Ah.”
Hearing the voice from in front of me, I snapped out of my thoughts and looked up.
There stood Jini, fidgeting in a pink sweatshirt and long white skirt.
“Um, does it look okay?”
“It suits you well?”
After defeating the Villain.
Separate from learning the shocking truth, shopping continued.
I actually thought about going straight to the Association, but I didn’t go because it seemed like it would only add to the confusion.
Maybe because she has a small frame, Jini actually suits clothes like that well.
Nodding at how incredibly well it suited her, I spoke to the clerk.
“Please give me everything we set aside, including that one.”
“Understood.”
“Then how much is it?”
“We’ll give it to you for free.”
Hm?
I blinked and looked at the clerk.
She smiled brightly at me and said.
“Black Dragon-nim saved our Department Store.”
“That was just what I had to do as an Association Hunter.”
“The owner contacted us saying he hopes you’ll please accept it for free. You don’t need to feel burdened.”
Tsk.
Clicking my tongue softly, I slowly nodded.
This would be at least 300,000 won, and they’re just giving it away.
As expected, Department Store owners are generous in heart too.
‘Yes! Saved money.’
Controlling my facial muscles with all my might, I told the clerk to convey my gratitude to the owner.
She smiled saying she’d gladly do so, and like that I walked out of the Department Store with Jini, both hands full of bags.
“…Did we really get it for free?”
“That’s right.”
“As expected, Master is an amazing person…!”
What did I even do?
Scratching my cheek, I looked up at the sky where the sun was gradually setting.
“…Jini.”
“Yes.”
“Would it be okay if we stop by somewhere for a moment?”
Jini nodded silently.
Looking at her calm expression, it seems she had already noticed something was wrong with me a while ago.
Even so, she didn’t ask and tried to act normal as usual.
This kid who’s much younger than me has such deep consideration.
Probably, if she didn’t act like that, she wouldn’t have been able to survive.
Smiling bitterly, I spoke to Jini.
“It’s nothing major, just that colleagues I worked with all suddenly quit.”
“Ah….”
“I want to stop by and check. They weren’t the type to do that.”
At least if I stop by the Association, I feel like I’ll be able to find out something.
Like that, I headed to the Awakened Association with Jini.
* * *
As always, the Awakened Association was full of people.
Naturally weaving through them, I took out the name tag I had put in my pocket and hung it around my neck.
“Let’s go, Jini.”
“Y-yes!”
Jini had hesitated for a moment at the sight of the Association packed with people.
She responded with a start at my voice.
Like that, I got on the elevator with Jini and went up to the 9th Floor.
-The door is opening.
The door opening with the announcement sound.
The scenery beyond was 100% identical to before I entered the Tower.
Maintaining silence, I walked out of the elevator, turned around, and stopped in front of a familiar room.
“I’m coming in.”
The door opening with a knock.
I had hoped the scenery beyond would also be the same as before entering the Tower, but.
“….”
Unfortunately, many things had changed.
A space where everything was empty.
I couldn’t see any documents stuck in the bookshelf, nor any clothes hanging on the coat rack.
Jeong Chan-woo’s sword that had been placed on the shelf was nowhere to be seen either.
“It’s really true.”
They really disappeared.
I thought about going to the Infirmary.
But even if I went, Hyung-su-nim would definitely have disappeared together with them anyway.
Then, Jini who was behind me looked at the Wall and muttered.
“It looks like there’s something over there.”
“Hm?”
I turned my head at Jini’s words.
Then I opened my eyes wide.
“Why is this still maintained?”
The Secret Room that Seong Yu-mi had created.
It should have disappeared when Seong Yu-mi left the Association, but that passage still remained on the wall.
I quickly approached and placed my hand on the wall where mana was flowing out.
Then my hand was instantly pushed inside the wall.
This space beyond is really being maintained.
Realizing this, I didn’t hesitate to stick my head inside.
“…As expected, it’s empty.”
The interior I entered was indeed empty.
I carefully entered and looked back and forth at the familiar sofa, chairs, and desk.
Then.
“What’s this?”
Black Dragon’s eyes detected some kind of trace.
Sharp mana that stood out prominently in the space made of gentle mana.
That trace was so faint that Jini or Omen wouldn’t notice it.
But I knew best that Seong Yu-mi wasn’t someone who would make such mistakes.
I reached out and carefully touched the sharp mana.
At that moment.
“A letter.”
A small piece of paper appeared in my hand.
I quietly unfolded the folded paper and looked inside.
Then my face rapidly hardened.
“Wh-what’s wrong?”
“…It’s nothing.”
I quickly folded the letter so Jini couldn’t see it and gritted my teeth.
“Just, it’s a bit disgusting.”
“…What?”
The content written in the letter wasn’t much.
Just.
“I guess there are power struggles in the Association too.”
Suppressing the anger that welled up, I looked at the crumpled letter.
The content wasn’t much.
It just said that Seong Yu-mi was suddenly called to the Association’s Disciplinary Committee.
And that she received disciplinary action for all sorts of reasons.
That was the end of what was written in the letter, but I could figure out the rest without thinking about it.
‘She must have quit because she couldn’t comply with the disciplinary measures.’
What useless bastards they are.
I clicked my tongue and brought the paper toward Cheo-ri on my shoulder.
“Cheo-ri. Fire.”
“Kkyung.”
Whoosh.
The paper instantly burned up in my hand.
I released the blackened ashes from my hand and walked back out through the passage I had entered.
What was waiting for me was.
“Nice to meet you, Black Dragon. This is the first time seeing you like this, isn’t it?”
A muscular man with black hair and yellow eyes.
I looked at the man blocking the entrance with sunken eyes.
He smiled brightly and waved his hand at me playfully.
It was the first time seeing his face.
But I knew who he was.
“S-rank Hunter. It’s an honor to meet Hunter Heo Hyeon-yun, the Wolf Fang.”
“Oh. You know me?”
“How could I not know one of the three S-rank Hunters in the Association.”
Ah, no.
“Should I say two now?”
“…”
Snicker.
Heo Hyeon-yun let out a silent laugh at my answer.
I just stared at him intently without any reaction.
“Why are you like that? I don’t really know about Seong Yu-mi leaving either. She suddenly left, so I was rather flustered, you know?”
“I’m sure you were.”
“I just came to take care of Black Dragon, who’s the only one left from Seong Yu-mi’s team.”
Heo Hyeon-yun widened his eyes and replied like that.
I responded to that disgusting Heo Hyeon-yun with a mechanical voice.
“You don’t need to take care of me.”
If you were going to do that, you should have done it well from the beginning.
When I was exhausted from dealing with the influx of villains, I had asked Seong Yu-mi once.
Whether she had always worked this much from the beginning.
Seong Yu-mi replied as if she was fed up.
She said it was all dumped work, so there was nothing she could do about it.
There are only two people who can dump work on Seong Yu-mi, an S-rank Hunter.
One is Heo Hyeon-yun, a fellow S-rank Hunter who always appears on TV.
The other is Kang Yong-chan, who’s always busy as the Awakened Association president.
Now, which of these two dumped work on Seong Yu-mi?
And which of these two.
“I’m resigning.”
Framed Seong Yu-mi with all sorts of accusations and got her disciplined?
The answer comes without deep thought.
At my response, Heo Hyeon-yun let out a snicker and shook his head.
“Look, Han Mi-reo. Think carefully. There’s nothing you can gain by choosing loyalty to Seong Yu-mi who already left?”
“…”
“Whether it’s power or money, you have to grab the right connections to get them. And right now, I’m willing to extend my hand to you.”
Heo Hyeon-yun said that and extended his hand toward me.
And I gladly slapped away the extended hand hard and said.
“Go eat shit, you bastard. What the hell are you doing, acting like an idiot.”
“…”
“Aren’t you 30 this year? Act your age. Don’t play power games in an Association that’s supposed to save people’s lives like an idiot.”
I walked past the frozen Heo Hyeon-yun and said.
“It’s true that I came to the Association to make money, you know? But I have no desire to earn it under you.”
“…”
“Let’s go, Jini. This is bringing bad luck.”
“Y-yes!”
Just as I was about to walk through the entrance with Jini.
A hairy arm like a beast’s smashed the door along with violent mana.
I turned my head expressionlessly and met eyes with Heo Hyeon-yun, whose forehead was bulging with veins.
“…Are you done talking now?”
“What. Want me to add more?”
“…A star will set today.”
Hair sprouting from Heo Hyeon-yun’s entire body.
Soon after, Heo Hyeon-yun transformed into a giant wolf, and his sharp teeth roughly bit at my neck.
However.
“What’s he doing?”
That wasn’t me.
I stared blankly ahead and muttered.
At this, Jini chuckled and muttered.
“It’s a hallucination.”
“Wow. He really looks like an idiot?”
One giant bastard of a dog was just snapping at thin air.
Maybe we should call a famous animal trainer or something.
Quietly watching that scene, I turned my gaze to the splitting air.
There was.
“Black Dragon! I’m late… what’s he doing?”
“You’re late, Hunter Sung Yu-mi.”
As if she had been waiting, Sung Yu-mi appeared.
She looked at Heo Hyeon-yun snapping at thin air like he was a bug, then turned her gaze to me and smiled.
“It’s been a while?”
“Indeed it has.”
“That kid next to you is…”
“As you expected.”
Sung Yu-mi immediately realized that Jini was also a summoned creature.
Nodding her head, Sung Yu-mi silently extended her hand toward me.
“Take it.”
“Yes.”
Grasping her outstretched hand, I also extended my hand to Jini.
The moment Jini grasped my hand.
“Huh!”
Heo Hyeon-yun snapped out of his hallucination.
When he frantically turned around.
“…Sung Yu-mi!”
No one was left.
* * *
Having teleported while holding Sung Yu-mi’s hand, I looked around.
“Where is this?”
“It’s the Chinese restaurant that Black Dragon destroyed back then.”
“…”
I already knew that much without being told.
What I’m asking is why she brought me here.
To this, Sung Yu-mi gave no answer and just pointed somewhere with her finger.
There, a familiar car was smoothly driving toward us.
“It’s been a while, Hunter Han Mi-reo.”
“You’ve been well?”
“That’s what I’d like to say to you.”
Click.
Sung Yu-mi opened the car door and gave a light wink to me and Jini.
“Both of you get in. We have a long way to go.”
“Jini. Get in first.”
“I will.”
After getting Jini into the car first, I got into the car next.
As soon as I finished putting Jini’s seatbelt on, the car carrying us smoothly exited the alley.
“So where are we going?”
“Jang-won-dong.”
“What? Why there?”
That’s the neighborhood where my house is.
Checking my face through the rearview mirror, Sung Yu-mi chuckled and said.
“As it happens, there was one more person who lived there.”
“…?”
What is she talking about?
I tilted my head and entrusted myself to the moving car.
The scenery outside the window changed very quickly.
