“… … “Can I not answer the phone?”
“Try to be quiet.”
I kept my mouth shut at Han Se-yeon’s firm words.
The phone went off after a while.
“hmm. This doesn’t go down well. “It doesn’t look like dust, it looks like some sort of powder.”
Murmur.
This time, a commotion was heard outside the door.
I wonder what happened to the door
I was about to look away when Han Se-yeon grabbed my head.
“Wait. “I’m telling you it hasn’t fallen yet?”
Wow…
It was then. The door to the manager’s office, where Han Se-yeon and I were, opened.
Han Se-yeon and I turned our gaze toward the door in that same posture.
There was an older man in a wheelchair and a person who appeared to be a secretary standing behind him.
“……uh?”
And when Han Se-yeon saw them, she looked surprised and fell away from me.
I was equally surprised.
Because I never expected this situation.
And the man was looking at me with a questioning gaze.
“Oh, father?”
The man’s identity is the owner of the Hanseong family.
It was Chairman Han Dae-hyun.
A regressed extra becomes a genius
Episode 173
Luxurious, high-quality Korean cuisine was piled on the table.
The number of plates that came up was as many as 13.
It was quite a lot for three people to eat.
This is a high-end Korean restaurant somewhere in Seoul.
Now across from me is Chairman Daehyun Han, the man known to have the strongest influence after Chairman Jincheol Kim.
sat down
Next to him, Han Se-yeon with an uncomfortable face was watching me.
I still don’t know how this situation came to be.
In an awkward atmosphere, Han Dae-hyun was the first to open his mouth.
“Did you say Kim Jin-woo?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“You said you were a wizard, right? “How long has it been since you met Se-yeon?”
“Cough!”
Han Se-yeon, who was drinking water, became a case.
I coughed as if I was coughing.
“father. “It’s not like that.”
“To act like a fool. “I saw everything that was sticking together so affectionately, but where did it break?”
“That’s on Jinwoo’s head… …
Han Dae-hyun cut off Han Se-yeon and spoke again.
“Ask me again. “How long has it been since you met Se-yeon?”
Han Se-yeon looked at my face with a puzzled expression.
I told her to take it easy
I nodded.
“I am not dating Han Se-yeon.”
Daehyun Han frowned at my polite words.
“Young people these days don’t even date, so why are they so close?”
“father. It’s not like that, is it? “Jinwoo had something strange on his head, so I took it off.”
Han Se-yeon came forward again and spoke.
Han Dae-hyun must have sensed the sincerity of that desperate cry, so he kept his mouth shut for a moment.
“Oh, I guess we’re not in a relationship yet, but in the early stages. “Is that what they call ‘some’ these days?”
Daehyun Han looked at me intently and said.
“Well, even if it wasn’t necessarily that, I would like to meet you at least once.”
You wanted to meet me?
As I looked at him with questioning eyes, Daehyun Han opened his mouth again.
“I heard it from Se-yeon. Host your previous project and Pioneer Night event.
“I stopped you, right?”
Oh, you knew that too.
“I only gave advice. “It was Han Se-yeon who made the move herself.”
“It’s advice. Wasn’t the evidence too weak at the time to give advice? “I think it was almost like gambling.”
“that……
“father. “But what brought you here?”
At that time, Han Se-yeon joined the conversation. It seemed like he was trying to change the flow of the conversation to keep me out of trouble.
“I went to the headquarters for a while because I had some work to do. “I stopped by to see my daughter’s face on the way.”
“What does headquarters work like?”

“You don’t have to know.”
“… … “If you are going to come, please at least contact me in advance.”
“Contacted.”
” when?”
Han Se-yeon made an expression that said she was seeing this for the first time.
“I sent a phone call to your office. It’s just that you didn’t answer the phone
“Hey.”
phone call? Han Se-yeon tilted her head and then opened her mouth to say something that occurred to her.
“Are you really talking about the phone call that came a minute before you came up?”
“okay.”
“No, that was a minute ago. “You must call at least 10 minutes in advance.”
“Why are you making such a fuss? “Do you have some plan behind my back?”
“no. That’s not it… …
Han Se-yeon trailed off.
I watch the conversation between father and daughter with interest.
I saw.
It was refreshing and fun to see Han Se-yeon, who usually only showed a confident appearance, show a difficult side that we had never seen before.
At that time, Daehyun Han turned his gaze to me. Then he looked at me with eyes that I couldn’t tell what he was thinking.
“But you didn’t get an answer to my question earlier. Advice to Se-yeon. “What basis did you have?”
At Daehyun Han’s words, I remained silent for a moment.
The advice he gives is about the dungeon business and
This means stopping the Pioneer Night event.
How should I answer this?
Of course, it is easy to make something up and say it.
It was predicted based on the recent cycle of dungeon creation around the world, and Jin Cheon-woo’s sword, ‘Hokcheon’, displayed at the Pioneer Night event, is something that Zaun can easily target.
If you answer like this, Daehyun Han will probably pass over without any doubts.
But that’s not what I’m worried about right now.
Would it be better to let this situation go with a plausible answer?
Or, would it be better to pique Chairman Han Dae-hyun’s interest with a somewhat special answer? I was thinking about that.
Finally, after thinking about it, I answered.
“I have a good feeling.”
” persimmon?”
Daehyun Han frowned.
Han Se-yeon also looked at me with slightly embarrassed eyes.
“Yes, I’ve always had a good feeling about it.
all. “It’s not wrong in most cases.”
“Are you kidding me now?”
Daehyun Han spoke to me with stern eyes. They said they were so sick that they were almost dying, and their eyes were cruel.
But for me, it was an inevitable choice.
The Hansung family controls the world economy and collects numerous ‘mysteries’ using enormous capital.
The number is probably in the hundreds.
The strong power of Hansungga.
That power remains even after Han Dae-hyeon’s death.
By his son ‘Han Se-jin’.
If the roots of evil can be pulled out or weakened before they grow, the only chance to do so is now that Han Dae-hyun is alive.
“I’m serious.”
“You’re joking too much.”
Daehyun Han said in a hard voice.
However, there was no hint of disappointment in his eyes.
Rather, his interested eyes were staring at me.
I responded to him with a soft smile.
“You are free to believe. “It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it.”
There is no need to persuade me now. Increasing unnecessary words here will only have the opposite effect.
All I had to do was attract a little bit of attention.
“Then that tip. “Can I test it?”
“Why are you testing me because I’m not a fortune teller?”
It doesn’t come out though. “I will try to get a feel for the chairman’s concerns.”
Han Dae-hyun chuckled at my words.
“So, what’s my problem?’’
“Aren’t you regretting something from the past?”
At that moment, Han Dae-hyun’s expression suddenly hardened.
Like a well-built luxury sedan sliding
Go forward through the dark tunnel.
Han Se-jin was sitting in the back seat of the car talking on the phone with someone with a nervous look on his face.
“Your father is having a meal with Se-yeon?”
[Yes, it is.]
“Why is this person so sick that he can’t even move properly?”
Is there something important to discuss?
Han Se-jin felt anxious for a moment. She doesn’t even talk about herself.
To him, whose goal was to become the owner of the Hansung family, this situation did not feel very pleasant.
[The exact reason is unknown. And there was one more companion.]
“Companion? “Who is that?”
[This is Jinwoo Kim, a magician.]
“Kim Jin-woo? ah.”
Han Se-jin remembered Kim Jin-woo’s name.
He was a man who had eaten with Han Se-yeon at a restaurant in the past. And last time I bought it
I also participated in school events along with Han Se-yeon.
“Why is that man there?”
[We don’t know either.]
Han Se-jin was lost in thought for a moment.
Jinwoo Kim… … .
Why is that man there?
Could it be that he was going to introduce his lover to his father?
Because it’s a lover.
If you think about it, their relationship didn’t seem like a simple business.
Considering that I took him with me to social events, we were probably closer than I thought.
You denied it last time, but was it still like that?
“Se-yeon is all grown up too.”
Having a lover involved means that it is a light situation.
I don’t think you need to worry too much about the two people meeting.
“all right. If anything unusual happens, please contact me right away.”
[all right.]
pop
The phone gets disconnected. Han Se-jin looked out the window.
The lights that brightened the darkness disappeared and mountains and trees began to appear.
The cityscape has long since disappeared.
“Vice President, we will arrive in about 10 minutes.”
“All right.”
At that time, a message alarm rang on Han Se-jin’s phone. What I usually use
No, it was a phone used for secret work.
［About 40 minutes late today
It was Elin’s message.
After failing to subdue Zaun in Atlantis, a mercenary group was called in due to future plans and schedules.
The meeting place was located in the direction of Han Se-jin’s villa in Gangwon-do.
［What is the reason?］
［It’s not a big deal, I did my own research.
I was late while doing research because there was someone I wanted to talk to. sorry.]
I can’t believe I had to wait for 40 minutes for personal matters. I feel quite bad.
I guess I’ll have to add one rule regarding today’s appointment.
Because I absolutely hate not keeping promises.
[But who did you investigate?]
I had a personal curiosity, so I asked a question.
But no reply came. little
Before, I received a quick reply within 20 seconds.
It was time to close the message window. A message arrived again from Elin.
[This is a wizard named Kim Jin-woo. Do you know anything?]
“……uh?”
An unexpected name popped up.
Jinwoo Kim.
It’s Jinwoo Kim again. Today is already the second time.
Is this really a coincidence?
Han Se-jin continued to look at the name Kim Jin-woo with blank eyes.
I had a strange feeling.
It feels like I will continue to be involved with this person in the future… … .
I felt that way.
After eating.
Daehyun Han returned to his home. Long time no see
Was going out a little too much? As soon as he returned, he leaned back in his chair, breathing heavily.
“Whoa…
“Chairman, are you okay? “You worked too hard today.”
“Okay. “Don’t treat me like I’m going to die soon.”
I said that to my secretary and waved my hand. It was a gesture telling me to go out of the room because I wanted to be alone.
The secretary bowed her head and walked out of the room.
Han Dae-hyun, who was left alone in the room, said,
Si closed his eyes.
Jinwoo Kim I met today.
He was a more unusual man than I thought.
I also thought I knew why my daughter was close to him.
And the conversation I had with him kept coming back to me.
—Do you have any regrets about something from the past?
-… … what?
—That’s literally it. You look worried on your face, but you have everything in the world.
The Chairman has a few concerns. Illness, an uncertain future, or an irreversible past. Well, out of all the expected ones, I chose one based on intuition.
—I guess you have a good feeling. Why don’t you bloom even if it’s just a mat?
—If there are circumstances that prevent you from telling others, I think I can help you, Chairman.
Daehyun Han suddenly remembered a memory from the past.
His older brother, who was his blood relative.
committed by the greed that runs in one’s blood
betrayal.
A long time ago, he betrayed and trampled on his own brother to take over the Hanseong family.
