055. How to Use Caught Whitefish

“Yes, I will create that justification.”

Chairman Baek Ho-yoon asked back what I said.

“You are going to give us a reason to move our snow mountain? How can you say that? Are you thinking of our snow mountain as a corner store?”

“That can’t be right.” Isn’t Seolsan the best clan in Korea in name and reality?”

Baek Ho-yoon shows no reaction to what I say, and Baek A-rin looks like he is flattering someone.

‘Flatter is quite confident.’

Today I’m going to do the complete opposite.

Baek Ho-yoon looked this way and said.

“Then how can you make a justification? Let’s take a look.”

“Do you know Lee Seong-hyun?”

Baek Ho-yoon nods his head slightly in response to my question.

“Lee Seong-hyun is a hot topic in the world right now. The media and society are talking every day about the emergence of the greatest genius in the Academy’s history. And maybe that’s true…”

“That’s enough. I tend to follow the news. I don’t know what that student named Lee Seong-hyeon has to do with the cause of Seolsan.”

What is your relationship?

It is a subject of comparison. I will sell myself by setting up a huge comparison object called Seonghyun Lee.

“The pinnacle of the academy. I will take that position.”

Baek Arin’s eyes are wide and round,

A moment of silence followed.

From noble mtl dot nete

And soon Baek Ho-yoon, who had been expressionless, laughed out loud for the first time.

“Are you the peak?”

“Yes, I am trampling on the current generation, which is said to be the greatest generation in Hunter Academy history. I will stand in the position of head.”

A look of astonishment. Chairman Baek Ho-yoon probably already has some understanding of me. An inferior orphan with only one skill book. That kind of man is now setting up Lee Seong-hyun as a comparison target and saying that he will take the top spot in the academy.

‘It would be funny.’

The pinnacle of the Academy. It means that he is the strongest hunter of his generation.

“I know what you want to say.”

It seems that Baek Ho-yoon also understood what I meant. Hunter Academy. He is also the top graduate of Seoul Hunter Academy, the highest level.

This has a different meaning from a typical school graduate who, even if he or she is the top student, is still a beginner right after graduation.

A hunter with guaranteed performance.

He is also the highest hunter of his generation.

Naturally, every clan almost desperately wants it.

‘Especially if it’s the chief.’

Among them, a verbal contract to come to the snowy mountain as the head of the current generation, which is called the best generation.

If it is true, it would be a contract that you would want to sign in exchange for anything.

‘On the snowy mountain. Especially for Baek Ho-yoon.’

But the biggest loophole and problem with the proposal I gave.

“Just a student. How can you believe the words of a guy who hasn’t even made his name his known yet? Our Snow Mountain is, as you said, the best clan. Normally, it would be difficult for a student like you to even set foot in it.”

You know. I know it well.

No matter what I say, it won’t work.

That’s why what I’m doing from now on is unavoidable.

I took a deep breath and said.

“I know. It’s the best clan. There’s no way any Korean wouldn’t know that it’s the second clan following Inferno.”

“It’s the second time…”

Chairman Baek Ho-yoon’s eyes were instantly distorted.

And the eyes of Baek Arin, who was sitting across from me, also seemed to be colored with astonishment.

-Kim, Siwoo Kim are you crazy?! What are you doing!

He keeps kicking my shin while making an expression like this.

‘It hurts.’

Although I said it a little harshly, it is true.

Seolsan is unable to escape the image of being second best to Inferno in most fields.

Moreover, Baek Ho-yoon’s personal feelings.

Although he was a classmate of Kang Young-ho at the Academy, he has never surpassed Kang Young-ho as an individual.

I believe that the best way to emotionally shake up the icy Baek Ho-yoon is to use Baek Ho-yoon’s sense of inferiority.

The proof is that Chairman Baek Ho-yoon’s eyes are shaking so much right now.

‘It’s scary.’

Baek Ho-yoon’s sharp eyes seem to be piercing me.

Honestly, I think I might be a little tired.

But there is no point in stopping here.

You have to keep saying things that get on Chairman Baek Ho-yoon’s nerves. Only then will there be meaning in doing this.

“Lee Seong-hyun, as the Chairman knows, is the best of this generation. No, he has more talent than hunters of all generations, both in name and reality. And Kang Hwa-yeon is just as good as him. The two of them will definitely become the leading figures of the next generation of hunters.”＜ Br＞

“…”

Should I continue? Or is he suppressing his anger? Baek Ho-yoon looks at me with unknown eyes.

But he didn’t care and continued talking.

“The Chairman, you are well versed in rumors, so you would know that Lee Seong-hyun, who has a strong pride, has no reason to come to the snowy mountain, leaving behind Inferno, the number one clan. No matter what conditions are put on the snowy mountain, Inferno will also put even more conditions than that in order to take Lee Seong-hyun away. Yes.”

In fact, during the 8th episode of the original work, Lee Seong-hyun worked as a freelancer, but he was never affiliated with Seolsan.

Of course, Kang Hwa-yeon, the remaining member of the two-headed carriage, will succeed Inferno.

Snow Mountain, which has already been the second-ranked clan for many years, loses these two and widens the gap with Inferno.

Chairman Baek Ho-yoon probably knows this better than I do.

After I finished speaking, Chairman Baek Ho-yoon finally spoke.

“You’re not wrong. So what does that have to do with my trusting you?”

That’s right.

Even if Lee Seong-hyeon and Ganghwa-yeon do not come to Seolsan, it has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I will become the chief.

‘And for this persuasion, I have been fishing for Baek A-rin.’

Ruler. Let’s go, Baek Arin!

I took a breath and spoke calmly.

***

“Your daughter, Miss Baek A-rin, one of the successor candidates for Seolsan, will vouch for me for the position of successor.”

Even Chairman Baek Ho-yoon couldn’t help but be surprised by Kim Si-woo’s words. Wasn’t his daughter the one who wanted to become the president of Snow Mountain more than any of her siblings? There is a desire that goes beyond wishing and is at the level of obsession. He was Chairman Baek Ho-yoon, whom he knew better than anyone else.

And Baek A-rin was also surprised by Kim Si-woo’s remarks.

‘A really crazy person, no crazy person, crazy person!!’

Kim Si-woo’s explosive remarks her her, which were not even agreed upon in advance, were enough to embarrass Baek A-rin and cloud her judgment

Baek A-rin felt Kim Si-woo’s gaze staring at her.

‘Tell me how to fix it! What does it have to do with my position as successor in the first place?’

Chairman Baek Ho-yoon looked at Baek A-rin with an expression of disbelief.

“Is that true?”

Baek Arin finally realized it. The reason why Kim Si-woo’s words are persuasive. Grandpa in the clan. In other words, the person who was closest to the former chairman and most closely resembles his ideology his has a faction that does not want him to inherit Snow Mountain.

For them, in return for adding a small project called ‘Incurable Disease Research’ in Seolsan, ‘Kim Si-woo’ of one skill book takes the top prize. And the reward at stake is ‘Baek Ah-rin’s successor’, so there is no reason to refuse a gamble with a 100% chance of winning.

Baek A-rin’s bones hurt.

He thought he was fishing to get Kim Si-woo, but he knew from the beginning that Kim Si-woo was taking the bait on a salty plate.

Kim Si-woo continues to look at Baek A-rin.

‘You’re asking me to make a choice. Really crazy…’

Baek A-rin knew the meaning in Kim Si-woo’s eyes. Meaning, choose here.

If you abandon Kim Si-woo here, Kim Si-woo will definitely abandon you. However, if he chooses Kim Si-woo and becomes his guardian, he will be in the same boat as Kim Si-woo.

‘If Kim Si-woo is truly a joker card, if I make him on my side here, I will be much closer to becoming the successor to Seolsan.’

The things Kim Si-woo has shown to Baek A-rin so far. And Kim Si-woo’s sudden remark was enough to cloud the judgment of Baek A-rin, who continued to worry that he might be taken away by someone.

And the result.

“I am confident that Kim Si-woo, who is here as my successor, will become the best hunter of this generation. After he takes that position, Kim Si-woo will definitely become the leading figure of the next generation of snow mountains that I will lead.”

Kim Si-woo was inwardly delighted at Baek A-rin’s words his, and Baek Ho-yoon couldn’t help but be truly surprised by his daughter’s remarks his.

***

Baek Ho-yoon was dumbfounded.

‘I heard that Kang Young-ho was a kid who had been summoned separately, so I decided to take a look and see what kind of guy he was.’

To be honest, Baek Ho-yoon did not have high expectations for a man named Kim Si-woo.

There were rumors that he had caught Panpagia upon entering school or had actually defeated a dungeon boss, but I knew that it was physically impossible for a student with just one skill book to do such a thing.

‘But, I was caught off guard.’

As the chairman of Snow Mountain, he was continuously swayed by a child with a skill book.

It was absurd, but it was true.

‘I never thought Arin would do that.’

Above all, her daughter Baek A-rin, took the position of successor. It was difficult for her to believe that Baek A-rin, who was more obsessed with her position as chairman than anyone else, had taken her gamble.

‘It must have been because he was certain of something.’

At that time, Baek Ho-yoon’s wife came next to her and asked him.

“Uncharacteristic of you, you accepted that offer. I guess something was wrong?”

Baek Ho-yoon took a deep breath of his cigarette.

“Because that child’s eyes are exactly like his father’s. No matter how absurd it is, I find myself looking forward to it without even realizing it.”

***

Done. I lived.

Me? Bluff King.

With this, I can live on even after the awards ceremony.

“Please talk to me and let’s live.”

Although Baek A-rin is staring at me with angry eyes from the side, I feel a little uncomfortable.

What is it like?

I have overcome one big hurdle.

‘Hope of clearing the hidden tutorial. Plus, my safety is guaranteed as a bonus. What a good thing.’

I don’t think I can hold my alcohol down for today.

No, I am already drunk with joy.

“Let’s all pour drinks together! Call everyone!”

“What are you saying…”
