The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 489 Changing Incheon (2)

Test results are open to everyone.

[Grade E Kang Min-ho succeeded in being promoted to 2nd level to C grade]

This was the message that popped up on the screen in the waiting room.

Is that why?

Kang Min-ho, who came out after the exam, found people flocking to him like a herd of hyenas.

“Kang Min-ho! If you have time, would you like to have a cup of tea with me?”

“I came from the Silence Guild. I want to officially recruit Kang Min-ho, so let’s talk.”

“You are so wonderful. It’s not even a D grade from E grade, it’s a C grade, so it’s a success! Do you know that this is an unprecedented achievement in recent times? Our guild master also said that he would welcome with open arms if he was a talented person like Minho Kang, so I will meet all the conditions that Minho Kang wants.”

There was an uproar.

People who make recruitment offers.

They were a culture unique to the promotion test site.

Called Piki, they spent time in the waiting room, and whenever talented people like Kang Min-ho appeared, they rushed like crazy.

Kang Min-ho couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

When he took the promotion test several years ago, no one paid any attention to him, but now, at first glance, there are more than a dozen.

In fact, it was a natural result.

Class E to C.

The C grade itself is also highly evaluated, but it was clear that there was a special reason if it was enough to be promoted to 2 tiers at once.

However, among the people who handed out business cards to Kang Min-ho, there was something that captured Kang Min-ho’s heart.

“This is the Heavenly Sword Guild. I contacted you last time, but apart from Roman Dmitri’s choice, I want to serve Kang Min-ho as the heavenly sword. Of course, a high salary is guaranteed, and if you accept Cheon-Geom’s offer, we will help you settle down in Seoul with your daughter. A cataclysm is about to strike. If you think about the future, take care of your family’s safety in the realm of the heavenly sword.”

heavenly sword.

Korea’s three largest guilds.

It seems that they have investigated Kang Min-ho separately, and they have made a really tempting suggestion about the safety of their daughter.

It was really good conditions.

Settling down in Seoul with a high salary was something Kang Min-ho thought of as a dream when he was on the move as an E-rank hunter.

When I first met Roman Dmitri, I approached him with the goal of making my dream come true.

however.

It was different now.

Kang Min-ho, who faced a change through Roman Dmitri, knew that he could only become stronger if he stayed by his side.

life as a strongman. It was an area that had not been felt before.

However, in a situation where even the C-class hunter was destroyed, Kang Min-ho became stronger and had another dream to protect his daughter.

Kang Min-ho said firmly.

“Thanks for the offer, but I will decline all of them.”

I turned my steps.

Regardless of whether people were anxiously calling him or not, Kang Min-ho headed to Incheon, where Roman Dmitri was.

* * *

That time.

Lee Tae-sung heard about Kang Min-ho.

“… To really succeed in being promoted to 2nd dan?”

It was a great achievement.

Especially the opponent of the promotion test.

Ki Myung-jun was famous for his bad temper.

As a C-class fighter, he did whatever he felt like and often crippled challengers just because he didn’t like it.

Besides, he is also a talented person. When he heard that Ki Myung-jun was chosen as Kang Min-ho’s opponent, he knew Min-ho Kang’s promotion to 2nd dan would end in failure.

The result was the opposite.

It was shocking.

I heard that Ki Myung-jun collapsed and was taken to the hospital, rather than simply holding out for 3 minutes.

‘What kind of magic did Roman Dmitri use?’

a month ago.

And now.

Kang Min-ho has completely changed.

As a result of Lee Tae-seong’s separate investigation, Kang Min-ho a month ago was clearly at a level suitable for E grade, but he succeeded in being promoted to C grade in that short time.

All I could think of was that Roman Dmitri had created a miracle.

‘With Kang Min-ho’s promotion to 2nd dan, we lost the justification for making excuses. If we fail, Kang Min-ho will also exclude us who failed to succeed in his direct jurisdiction. That is absolutely unacceptable. But just because Kang Min-ho succeeded, can we succeed too? Aside from the direct control, it would be impossible for even me to be promoted to Class A right away.’

Grade A.

It was a tall wall.

After being promoted to Class B, she trained fiercely with the goal of becoming Class A, but she realized that she was still lacking.

Starting from grade A, it was really special.

They were monsters to the point of being called a one-man army alone, and countries around the world considered them as the standard for evaluating national power from Grade A or higher.

How many A grades are there?

How many S ranks do you have?

From the moment you go up to grade A, I can assure you that a completely different world will unfold from when you were in grade B.

“… driving me crazy.”

It was stifling.

I didn’t want to leave the direct control unit.

I wanted to remain as Kim Jun-hyeok’s person until the end, but Roman Dmitri presented an unconventional standard that the existing Incheon could not handle.

Will he be weeded out like this or will he somehow cross the wall regardless of means and methods?

crossroads of choice.

gritted it

There was no way to fix it myself.

Then, in order to solve this problem, it was necessary to find out the basis that made the impossible a reality.

‘Let’s go find Roman Dmitri.’

That is.

It was the only way.

* * *

Lee Tae-seong’s plan ran into difficulties from the start.

Minho Kang said.

“Roman Dmitri has entered the forge.”

“… A forge?”

“yes. You said you plan to make the weapon yourself and that it will take about a month.”

It was an absurd answer.

Crafting weapons!

after the catastrophe.

The value of modern firearms has declined.

It is not that it does not work against monsters, but the outer skin of monsters showed a strong appearance against modern firearms.

So people started using outdated weapons.

Weapons containing mana using skills split the outer skin of monsters at once, and from then on, the existing systems changed drastically.

Now, 20 years have passed.

Hunters had two ways to obtain weapons.

Stealing the weapons used by monsters in the hunting ground, or making new weapons using monsters’ by-products and mana stones.

Weapons suitable for the skill could only be obtained in two ways.

Thanks to this, weapon production has developed.

The value of occupational groups such as blacksmith and researcher rose rapidly, and people gave the same grade to weapons according to the effect of amplifying the power of skills.

from S to F. The kendo used by Lee Tae-seong was B grade.

It is an item of enormous value that requires spitting out billions of dollars to get it on the market right away, but in the process of dealing with Roman Dmitri, it was broken so easily that it was futile.

Confusion arose in my mind.

It was unacceptable to common sense that Roman Dmitri made weapons.

“… Are you sure? As you know, crafting weapons is not something everyone can do. People who possessed excellent crafting skills even before the apocalypse have to hone their skills for a new world for decades to create weapons that are barely B-grade or better. So, starting from A grade, an astronomical amount is set, so how on earth is Roman Dmitri going to make a weapon?”

Roman Dmitry’s strength?

Admitted.

If he has a special past like a successor or a chosen one, his strength is unreasonable, but understandable.

However, the realm of production is different.

It takes ages to melt away, and it was impossible for Roman Dmitri, seemingly only in his 20s, to cross the artisanal realm.

As Kang Min-ho, Lee Tae-sung’s question could not be completely resolved.

He, too, only heard that it was from Roman Dmitri, but did not know the exact story behind it.

“Yeah, I don’t know either. One thing is for sure, if you want to see Roman Dmitri, come back in a month.”

one month.

It was the deadline set by Roman Dmitry.

If you go there and seek the answer, the members of your direct control who have not been promoted will be cut off with a single knife.

There was no expectation of mercy.

If you look at the same steps as the Red Moon incident, Roman Dmitri was not a person who allowed room for his words.

dire situation.

Lee Tae-sung couldn’t move.

After pondering for a while, he saw Kang Min-ho in his eyes.

‘How could he succeed in being promoted to 2nd level?’

Come to think of it.

The answer was right in front of my eyes.

Even if it is not Roman Dmitry, the person concerned will surely know the answer.

Lee Tae-seong said.

“I know this is a really rude request, but could you explain to me why you were able to succeed in being promoted to 2nd tier?”

an earnest voice.

Lee Tae-seong looked at Kang Min-ho with the feeling of grabbing at least a straw.

* * *

Lee Tae-sung’s remarks.

Kang Min-ho was surprised.

I didn’t know Lee Tae-seong would give up his pride, but that didn’t mean he didn’t anticipate the current situation.

Roman Dmitry before entering the forge.

Kang Min-ho said this.

“If Lee Tae-seong seeks help from you, use your will to make the right decision. If you think of Lee Tae-seong as a colleague to entrust your back to, tell me everything, and if not, draw the line with a single knife.”

Roman Dmitry.

I expected Lee Tae-sung’s actions.

And left the choice.

Kang Min-ho looked at Lee Tae-seong and fell into trouble.

‘I guess it means to tell me the Sura sword method and the Sura simbeop according to my judgment. Lee Tae-seong and his subordinates. Are they worth it?’

They are better people than themselves.

What Kang Min-ho thought was important was whether he was a useful person to Roman Dmitri, apart from his strength.

‘I can’t think of Lee Tae-seong as Roman Dmitri’s person. He is a blind follower of Incheon Mayor Kim Joon-hyeok, and that would fundamentally make a difference to me. But if you ask him if he is unreliable, the answer is no. He is the one who swore allegiance to Kim Jun-hyeok even when he was making realistically attractive proposals in Seoul. The meaning of being Kim Jun-hyeok’s person is that if Kim Jun-hyeok follows Roman Dmitri, he will also remain a strong ally.’

the future ahead.

Incheon needed talented people like the direct control unit.

was no different from myself.

Seeing him abandoning his pride for a firm purpose, Kang Min-ho was able not to worry for a long time.

“All right. I will explain why I was able to succeed in the 2nd level promotion. No, I will teach you.”

That time when people leave Incheon one by one.

The winds of change were blowing in Incheon.

* * *

A set of circumstances.

Mun Tae-joon, a central government investigator, showed a look of anger at what was happening in Incheon.

Quaang!

“What the hell are those chongsan bastards doing? With a guild led by a C-class, what do you believe and remain in Incheon?”

“… sorry.”

Subha lowered her head.

last few days.

As Moon Tae-Jun openly attacked the Incheon government, Moon Tae-Jun naturally assumed that within a few days all the guilds in Incheon would leave for other regions.

But what is this? The guild called Cheongsan expressed its position that it would remain in Incheon.

Of course, the purpose of weakening Incheon’s power by leaving Incheon was successful, but I didn’t like the fact that exceptions such as liquidation existed.

furthermore.

To make matters worse, I heard some very disturbing news.

“What else is Minho Kang? I thought he was nothing, but how did he succeed in being promoted to 2nd dan?”

“… Even at the promotion test site, it is a position that I do not know the reason. When I checked the data several years ago, Kang Min-ho apparently barely passed the E-level exam, but this time he actually defeated Ki Myung-jun, a C-rank hunter.”

“A sick bastard. To be defeated by a hunter from Incheon?”

from one to ten.

I didn’t like everything.

I hoped that the liquidation would not create an opportunity for Incheon to rebound due to a hunter named Kang Min-ho.

Taejun Moon said.

“It can’t be just a warning. Pressure Incheon economically and militarily. On the day a cataclysm comes, Incheon will also perish, so make the whole of Korea stay away from Incheon. Do you understand?”

“All right.”

“By the way, where is Roman Dmitri now?”

After meeting in Incheon.

Roman Dmitry became the target of vigilance.

I’ve been watching his movements, but Roman Dmitry hasn’t moved a single step in the last few days.

“… Based on my research, it appears to be staying at the forge, but I’m not sure why.”

“smithy?”

As Moon Tae-joon, he could not know.

smithy.

what’s going on there.

The possibility of Roman Dmitri forging weapons had never occurred to him.

“What the hell are you doing there?”

Even then.

Moon Tae-joon took Roman Dmitri’s steps and the changes in Incheon insignificantly.
