Episode 216.
‘Cut everything up, cut it up!’ Han Min-ah’s message about wanting to buy a sword.
But um.
“Why, aunt?”
No matter how much I thought about it, there was no reason for Han Min-ah to buy that sword.
First of all, Han Min-ah was an ordinary person, not an awakened person.
Why would a common person buy a sword?
It could have been decorative…
“no way.”
But Siwoo shook his head.
Who would spend 100 billion on decorative items?
“Could that be possible if you were a director of SH Group?”
I had this thought for a moment, but it was as expected.
Even for a director of SH Group, burning 100 billion won for decoration was an excessive extravagance.
“Then why?”
It was an unknown question.
At that moment, ding!
A new message has arrived from Han Min-ah.
『
“business?”
What business all of a sudden?
As expected, Siwoo tilted his head again at the incomprehensible question.
“hmm.”
Thoughts and worries continued.
But it didn’t last that long.
Anyway, if I was going to sell the sword, I had to meet him in person.
Let me hear the reason as well.
Knock, knock.
Siwoo sent a reply to Han Min-ah asking if they could meet now.
* * *
The top floor of the SH Group Seoul branch building.
However, although it was called the Seoul branch, it could be said to be a ‘branch’ located on the outskirts of Seoul.
And the reason Siwoo came to this branch office building instead of the headquarters building located in the center of Seoul was simple.
“I guess it hasn’t been restored yet.”
This was because the headquarters building collapsed in the disaster in Seoul.
“It was uncontrollable, so there was nothing I could do….”
To be exact, it was because Siwoo blew up the headquarters building.
The Thunder Leader Blue Dragon Leg used against Oh Ju-won.
The force not only destroyed the building, but also obliterated it.
Since the 5th industrial revolution, construction technologies have made significant progress.
Most buildings could be constructed within a month or two.
But is it because it wasn’t simply destroyed, but annihilated?
“… Ahem.”
It seemed like Shiwoo hadn’t recovered even during the time he passed out and woke up.
So, currently, SH Group is using this branch building on the outskirts of Seoul as its headquarters.
But what.
Although it was just a branch office building on the outskirts, it was better than other companies’ headquarters buildings.
“But here… .”
That moment.
“I’m sorry. I called you first and you’re late.”
In an instant, the door to the room opened and Han Min-ah appeared.
Just like when I saw him at the hospital, I could feel the sophistication in every gesture.
However, since he was busy with work, his face had become quite puffy.
“I had to rush to schedule a press conference. I’m really sorry.”
Press conference?
The moment I saw it, I had doubts, but I didn’t really care.
If you are a director at SH Group, it is common for an urgent press conference to be scheduled.
“It’s okay. I didn’t have to wait that long.”
Siwoo waved his hand slightly to clear his doubts.
Instead, he asked another question.
“By the way… what is it?”
“Huh? What?”
“Here it is. This is….”
“ah.”
Han Min-ah continued speaking as if she knew Si-woo’s question.
“Why are we meeting in the chairman’s office?”
And Siwoo nodded slightly.
As you said, this is where Siwoo is right now.
This was the chairman’s office used by the SH Group chairman.
Of course, Han Min-ah was the youngest daughter of Han Tae-san, the chairman and director of SH Group.
It was also an external branch that was used as a headquarters rather than the main office building.
There was no reason why the chairman’s office could not be used.
But even so, it’s still like that… .
“Is it okay for you to use the president’s office like this for personal purposes?”
“What could possibly go wrong?”
Han Min-ah said, hanging the coat on her shoulders on a hanger.
“I am the chairman of SH Group.”
“……yes?”
Siwoo wondered what was going on.
I really wondered what that meant.
Soon, Siwoo asked again as Han Min-ah sat down in front of him.
“What are you talking about? Your aunt is the president of SH Group?”
“That’s actually….”
Han Min-ah began to tell a long story.
As Siwoo listened to the story quietly, he was able to understand the whole story of what had happened.
Han Kwan-kook’s criminal activities.
Han Tae-san’s decision to retire.
“ah….”
It was only then that Siwoo was able to learn the full story.
Now I can finally understand what Han Tae-san did at the hospital with all his assets.
No, by the way.
“Han Gwan-guk cooperated with Pandemonium.”
I did think something was strange.
It was during the final battle with none other than Oh Ju-won.
It didn’t make sense that the amplification magic circle was engraved on the SH Group headquarters.
The amplification magic circle was a very time-consuming task.
In Moon Tae-beom’s case, this was a situation where they invaded Moon Tae-beom’s base from this side.
In short, it’s like stepping into a wizard’s dungeon.
But isn’t it the SH Group?
It didn’t make sense that there were not just one or two, but thousands of amplification magic circles engraved on it.
But what if there’s an accomplice inside?
What if the SH Group director is also an accomplice?
The pieces are finally starting to fit together.
… Well, anyway.
“Congratulations, President Han Min-ah.”
“Thank you. But I’ll accept the congratulations later.”
Han Min-ah showed a bitter expression with a small smile.
It must be because I can’t just be happy.
The disaster of Han Gwan-guk and Seoul.
Siwoo also knew the reason, so he didn’t say anything more about it.
“But why wasn’t the news that my aunt became president announced?”
“I also had to prepare for many things. I needed to take over as chairman, and there were things I had to prepare for if Han Gwan-guk’s crimes were revealed.”
Han Min-ah sighed softly and continued speaking.
“So I was going to announce it once the formal investigation into Han Gwan-guk began. I think the announcement was made now for that reason.”
“Right now? Uh… Then, is that the press conference you just mentioned?”
“that’s right.”
Han Min-ah nodded slightly.
At the same time, a dark expression spread across his face.
Now that Han Kwan-kook’s criminal activities have been revealed, along with the press conference.
Han Min-ah’s expression gave a rough idea of what people’s reactions would be.
“Still, I have to overcome it and go.”
Han Min-ah tried to smile brightly.
“If there’s anything I can help you with, just let me know.”
“Really? It’s really reassuring when an S+-rank hunter says something like that. There’s no need to complain later, right?”
“As long as you give me the money, I will give you as much as you want.”
Siwoo and Han Min-ah looked at each other and smiled.
“But Mr. Chairman─”
“What about the chairman? Siwoo, just call me aunt.”
Han Min-ah waved her hand slightly, saying it was disgusting.
It was a simple title, but it seemed like the attitude towards it was not that different.
“Auntie. What did you mean when you said in your message earlier that you wanted to buy a sword?”
Then suddenly.
Han Min-ah’s mood changed drastically.
If just a moment ago she seemed like an empress, what should I say now?
“Ah, that, that… .”
Should I say she is a fresh girl?
Of course, given Han Min-ah’s age, she couldn’t be considered a girl.
But the sight of her blushing and looking embarrassed is really… .
“Sir, I wanted to give you a gift.”
I couldn’t help but think of her as a fresh-faced girl.
But a gift?
“To whom?”
Siwoo tilted his head without realizing it.
But I soon realized who it was.
“Oh, are you going to give it to Chaerin?”
Han Chae-rin also wanted a sword that could ‘cut everything up, snippet by snippet!’
And Han Chae-rin is Han Min-ah’s niece.
I think I’m going to buy it as a gift for Han Chae-rin.
“huh?”
For a moment, Han Min-ah’s face showed a question mark.
“Chaerin has a sword that Master Aurelian made for her.”
That was true.
But it was also something that did not fit the current situation.
“Weren’t you planning to give it to Chaerin?”
“No? Why did you think so?”
“Well, Chaerin wanted that sword too.”
“okay?”
Then, Han Min-ah spoke with great embarrassment.
It seemed like Han Min-ah didn’t know either.
That means.
“Weren’t you going to give a gift to Chaerin?”
“…….”
Han Min-ah kept her mouth shut.
He didn’t say a word, as if he had honey in his mouth.
It definitely didn’t seem like a gift he had intended to give to Han Chae-rin.
“Then who are you going to give the gift to?”
Then Han Min-ah’s face turned bright red.
The two eyes of Han Min-ah that I was looking at were shaking violently as if an earthquake had occurred.
And for a moment.
“………Inspection… Director.”
I heard Han Min-ah’s voice crawling in.
The sound of someone crawling in and escaping was barely audible.
However, I couldn’t escape the feeling of 100.1% supernatural strength (SS).
“The director of the inspection bureau?”
At Siwoo’s words, Han Min-ah bowed her head.
I started to act like a girl who didn’t know what to do, like her diary was stolen.
Could it be because of Han Min-ah’s appearance?
“Oh~.”
Siwoo could understand this situation right away.
Siwoo brought up the subject subtly.
“Is this your way of thanking the director for saving your aunt?”
Then suddenly!
Han Min-ah raised her head and shouted.
“Oh, that’s right! I’m trying to repay you! It’s definitely not because I’m trying to be a jerk─.”
“I didn’t say anything.”
Han Min-ah opened her mouth wide.
The bright red face had now turned into a beet red.
Siwoo said with a sly laugh.
“Okay. I’ll sell it to my aunt.”
And then he happily sold it to Han Min-ah.
Aren’t you just going to get rid of your inventory anyway?
As for Siwoo, there was nothing wrong with buying it at full price.
Shiwoo immediately took out his sword from his subspace pocket, ‘Cut everything up, cut it up!’
Then he handed the sword to Han Min-ah.
Normally, prepayment is the rule, but whatever.
The chairman of SH Group would never have 100 billion won.
“I’m sure the director will really like it.”
“Huh, huh?”
Han Min-ah was flustered and could not easily receive the sword.
“Hey, can I buy it?”
“There’s nothing that can’t be done, right?”
Well, it was difficult for Han Min-ah, who was not an awakened person, to use it.
But didn’t you give it to Baek Seon-je as a gift?
If it was Baekseonje, he would use the sword ‘to cut everything up, snip it all!’ more effectively than anyone else.
“But didn’t you just say that Chaerin wanted to buy this sword?”
“What is that…?”
Siwoo thought for a moment and then answered.
“Chaerin, I can make you one separately.”
Of course, it’s not free.
At Siwoo’s words, Han Min-ah only then raised her sword.
And seeing you like that, like a girl, really… .
‘At the hospital, they kept insisting that we weren’t dating.’
Anyone can see that they are dating.
They weren’t just dating, they were so into each other that they were dying to see each other.
Where on earth can you find a girlfriend like this?
It was like that from the beginning, she was so happy about a gift for her boyfriend that wasn’t even hers.
No, yeah.
Well, let’s say that’s true.
What kind of girlfriend in the world gives a gift worth 100 billion won?
It would have been impossible unless his girlfriend was the president of SH Group.
For no reason, I started to feel envious of Baekseonje.
“I’m jealous of you, Director. You even got a 100 billion won gift from your girlfriend.”
“Seo, this isn’t a gift, this is a thank you for saving my life… .”
“I see.”
Siwoo nodded as if to say, “Would that be foolish?”
“But you don’t deny that she’s your girlfriend?”
“Ah, no…!”
Then, Han Min-ah’s face, which had just calmed down, turned bright red again.
Siwoo shook his head, laughing.
“I wish my girlfriend would make a lot of money too.”
Then suddenly.
Han Min-ah stopped moving.
After a while, he looked at Siwoo with a blank expression.
“You’re already making a lot of money.”
“yes?”
Siwoo tilted his head and continued speaking.
“What are you talking about? I don’t have a girlfriend.”
“……”
Then, Han Min-ah made a dumbfounded expression.
More precisely, I didn’t know how to say this, so I just smiled.
“Okay. Anyway.”
Siwoo said, waving his hands.
“Didn’t you say you had something to tell me about business?”
“… Ah, that.”
Only then did Han Min-ah come to her senses and answer.
“I thought of this after watching your YouTube video.”
“My YouTube video? No way, that sword commercial video?”
“that’s right.”
Han Min-ah nodded slightly.
For a moment I wondered what that meant.
“To be exact, I’m talking about paid advertising. Do you have any plans to try other types of advertising?”
“Another ad?”
“Our SH Group would like to advertise on your Seongnam channel.”
Siwoo’s eyes flashed for a moment.
* * *
next day.
An article that was posted as a special feature.
It caused a huge typhoon and swept across the entire Republic of Korea.
Amidst the articles popping up one after another in response.
News came that Han Tae-san was stepping down from his position as chairman.
Furthermore, as news of Han Tae-san’s retirement spread throughout the world, related stock prices began to fluctuate.
Taesan Han, who exerts influence beyond Korea and around the world.
The retirement of such a giant was not something one could simply watch.
But the retirement of the world’s biggest name was not pretty.
└
└
Criticism of Han Tae-san continued.
The prevailing view was that retirement was an avoidance of responsibility rather than an evasion of it.
In such negative views.
A piece of news suddenly emerged.
