Episode 232. second person meeting
As soon as Kim Jin-seong boarded, the ship left the port.
That was when we left the New World and started sailing toward the sea.
“Jinseong is also on board, so let’s start the meeting now.”
Inside the ship’s conference room, Hong Hyun-jin turned to everyone and said.
“Please understand that the meeting was inevitably held on board the ship to avoid any possible wiretapping or surveillance.”
Hong Hyun-jin first came up with the idea of holding a meeting on a ship instead of in the New World.
As soon as Kim Jin-seong and others agreed, Hong Hyun-jin borrowed a ship owned by the Baekdu Clan, erased the Korean flag and clan mark, and brought it to the New World.
Afterwards, it stopped at all ports and picked up all the important people who would attend today’s meeting.
“Then, tell me first.”
Hong Hyun-jin looked back at Kim Jin-seong sitting next to him and said.
Not only her, but everyone else’s eyes naturally turned to Kim Jin-seong, who was sitting at the head of the table.
This was proof that everyone naturally thought of Kim Jin-seong as the leader of this ‘anti-government group.’
“… Nice to meet you, everyone. “This is Kim Jin-seong.”
Jinseong Kim began his speech with a short introduction.
“We don’t have much time, so let’s get straight to the point. Today we are gathered here to plan for tomorrow’s ‘Second Person Meeting’.
According to the information I obtained… .”
Kim Jin-seong looked back at everyone who was hiding their identities and continued speaking.
“Tomorrow’s meeting will be held in another dimension, not on Earth.”
“… … !”
“And, the dimensions and exact location of the meeting have already been determined.”
The attendees’ eyes were wide open in surprise at first, but their eyes soon changed to relief.
“Perhaps the reason they are trying to hold the meeting in another dimension is to avoid terrorism from us, including me, as much as possible.
I think it’s a very good idea. When I first got the information, I was very surprised because it was a place that even I had never expected.
But now that we have the information, our side has a much greater advantage.”
Jinseong Kim went on to explain why it was advantageous.
“Currently, the New World, where security has completely collapsed, is called a living hell. In particular, in the case of Area B, it is said that corpses have been piled up for several days even on the main street.
However, if you were to ask me to choose where I should live for the rest of my life, between a dimension other than Earth and the current Zone B, I would answer Zone B without even thinking about it.
That’s why moving between dimensions is so risky. There is a high possibility that the portal suddenly disappears or the coordinates for returning to Earth change.
“You could become a lost child who wanders in another dimension forever because the dimension you crossed over is suddenly distorted.”
“okay. “This is my first time hearing this information.”
“One of the people I killed was Graham, who possessed the ‘dimensionalization’ ability.”
Everyone nodded at Kim Jin-seong’s words.
Everyone realized once again that Kim Jin-seong had absorbed Graham’s abilities.
“So this time, I’m trying to make the most of that level of risk.
As you know, the level of attendees of the ‘second-tier group’ that will gather tomorrow is enormous. The number of people is well over 50.
“It is definitely not a force that can win in a head-on fight.”
Tomorrow, only the second strongest members of the major clan will gather.
More than 50 monsters, each capable of wiping out another continent on their own, are united.
“But fortunately our goal is not to kill everyone.
It is to ‘disintegrate’ them so that they can never come together again. That means there is no need to launch an all-out war.”
Yoo Jun-ho’s plan to hold a ‘second-in-command meeting’ was obvious.
The idea is to create another ‘Major Clan Alliance’ in a different way than before.
Of course, the clans belonging to the anti-government group could not just sit by and watch them reunite.
“Of course, even if it is not a full-scale war, it is true that life is extremely dangerous. Because Yu Jun-ho of the world is not a person who can be relieved just because he is in another dimension without any defenses.
It is clear that they have prepared measures to prepare for various situations.
I believe that all of you here have the minimum level of skill to carry out operations despite all the dangers.”
At the same time as he said those words, Kim Jin-seong began to subtly exude his energy.
The energy instantly enveloped the entire conference room,
“… … !”
“hmm… .”
Some participants reacted visibly, as if they were having difficulty withstanding the energy.
[Tsk tsk tsk, what kind of big things are these guys who can’t even hold on to this much energy going to do? !]
‘Try to be quiet.’
Kim Jin-seong internally restrained Dantillion, who clicked his tongue at that sight.
At the same time, he opened his mouth and continued speaking.
“If you feel that it might be a little dangerous, please let us know now. We will deploy you to the rear in tomorrow’s operation.
“If you are concerned about what people think, it is okay to contact me secretly after the meeting is over.”
That was when I said that.
[…] Hoo?]
Soon, Dantillion’s exclamation came into Kim Jin-seong’s head.
[Even though their skills are poor, their will is strong, yes.]
Dantillion, who continued speaking, was looking into the eyes of the current participants.
These are eyes filled with a strong will to participate in the operation.
‘I told you so. These guys are called an ‘anti-government group.’ ‘I couldn’t even be sitting here if I wasn’t willing to sacrifice my life.’
There is no act more dangerous to one’s life than attempting a revolution against the existing government.
And an act more dangerous than the revolution was the terrorism they committed just before they united as rebels.
Right now, before Kim Jin-seong’s eyes, there are only crazy people who have risked their lives and committed terrorist acts even before the rebels were formed.

After a while.
Kim Jin-seong had returned to his hideout after a long time.
“Tomorrow’s operation is very important. “It might be the most important turning point.”
With all the latest weapons lined up on the table, Jinseong Kim, who was alone in his hideout, opened his mouth.
“If tomorrow’s operation is successful, the center area clan alliance will suffer a fatal blow. Tomorrow could actually be their last chance to get together.
In a situation where masters are forcibly banned from gathering together, even the second-person meeting that Jun-ho Yoo had ambitiously planned falls apart?
In fact, it is better to view the existing union as being disbanded.”
[Couldn’t we continue to try to form a union after this?]
“There’s no way I’d let that happen, right?”
It was Kim Jin-seong who immediately responded to Dantillion’s rebuttal.
“As I continue to interfere, the newly created ‘anti-government clan coalition’ will grow in strength, and eventually, when the time is right, they will advance to the capital.
At that moment, the existing clan alliance without a central point will come to an end.
From then on, I can go back and forth between all dungeons with peace of mind.”
[That was the final goal.]
“uh. Now I can only enter dungeons monopolized by the Daehan Clan. “The Daehan Clan is the only dungeon whose coordinates can be found using surveillance skills.”
To enter the remaining high-level dungeons, you must somehow deal with the Major Clan’s surveillance troops guarding the main gate.
Fighting every time you enter a dungeon is also work. Even if you fight once, the entire center area will be on alert and paladins will come in from all directions.
“So, during tomorrow’s operation, I plan to use all available means. Dantillion, I’m going to need your help too.”
[Again, due to the non-aggression pact, I cannot reveal my true identity in person.]
“know.”
Currently, Kim Jin-seong and Dantillion are under a ‘short-term contract.’
From the demon gods’ point of view, they needed a watcher who could make sure that Kim Jin-seong fulfilled the contract, and Dantillion, who was close to Kim Jin-seong, decided to take on the role of watcher.
The contract between the two will remain in effect until Kim Jin-seong removes the Tower of Trials from the Earth, and the moment the Tower of Trials disappears, it will become impossible to communicate with Dantillion in Middle-Earth as it is now.
“Just checking the surrounding situation is enough. If there are any signs of danger, it would be better to report them. “You said you could do this much?”
[Of course. The act of protecting the life of the contractee has nothing to do with the non-aggression pact.]
“That’s enough.”
Jinseong Kim gave a short answer and thought to himself.
‘If Dantillion reports any dangerous signs in advance, it will be of great help during tomorrow’s operation.’
In fact, from Kim Jin-seong’s perspective, he gained another best source of information that could not only use force.

next day.
The time is approaching noon.
“Are you ready?”
“yes.”
The conversation between Yoo Jun-ho and Team Leader Hong could be heard within the ‘Dimensional Movement Room’ located within the Daehan Clan headquarters building.
“To prepare for any unexpected situation, we triple-checked whether information was leaked through surveillance and eavesdropping skills. “Nothing suspicious was found.”
“It doesn’t really matter. If information leaks out from someone other than me, it’s over. “The important thing is to prepare for when your location is discovered.”
“I have no choice but to trust you, Duke.”
“… All right. Open the dimensional rift.”
“yes.”
Soon, Team Leader Hong began operating the magic circle that opened the dimensional gap.
After a while, Yoo Jun-ho and Team Leader Hong entered the dimensional gap that had formed in the center of the dimensional transfer room.
At the same time, the surrounding environment changed drastically.
The two stepped into a damp cave filled with moisture.
“… “Many of them have already arrived.”
Yu Jun-ho opened his mouth as he looked at the already crowded cave.
“Look at the other end, Deputy Master.”
At that time, Team Leader Hong pointed to the end of the cave, and Yoo Jun-ho’s gaze naturally turned towards that direction.
At the same time, Yoo Jun-ho’s expression brightened.
“… You really kept your promise. “Let’s go.”
Soon, Yoo Jun-ho and Team Leader Hong began heading towards the end of the cave at a fast pace.
* * *
That time.
There were two men standing outside the cave where the two-person meeting was being held.
“… “It’s real.”
The man on the left with an admiring voice was Park Do-jun, the owner of the ‘Finder’ information store.
“I never thought a secret meeting would be held inside a cave on the 5th floor of the Demon Dungeon.”
“I just used my head as best as I could. “I even took into account the darkness under the lamp.”
Kim Jin-seong, who was next to him, answered his words.
“And the lower the level of the dungeon, the lower the chance of variables occurring. In other words, it is possible for them to deploy defense forces as they please.”
“On the other hand, isn’t it easy for us to attack too?”
“that’s right.”
Kim Jin-seong tried to use all means until he found out the coordinates of the dimension where the meeting was held.
In fact, it was Kim Jin-seong who had even planned to secretly infiltrate the Daehan Clan’s headquarters starting midnight today using the ‘complete invisibility’ skill.
However, the moment we easily found out that the meeting place was the 5th floor of the Demon Dungeon through code decryption, there was no need to make a risky attempt.
For Kim Jin-seong, who is currently working with Dantillion, the Demon World Dungeon is virtually like a front yard.
“What is the enemy’s defense status?”
In response to Kim Jin-seong’s question, Park Do-jun closed his eyes and began to concentrate.
“… First of all, there are a lot of defensive troops and a lot of magic circles installed. But that’s not the point.”
Park Do-jun opened his eyes again and looked back at Kim Jin-seong.
“Hemmingston is there.”
“… what?”
Kim Jin-seong’s eyes widened.
As far as he knew, there was only one Hunter named Hemmingston, the Master of the Alpha Clan.
