The Spoon Villain Is Obsessed with the Hero Again Today - Chapter 109
Collision (2)
Arna visited the CEO’s office early in the morning.
This is the headquarters of the Hyun-gwang Guild. It is one of the top 5 guilds representing South Korea, and the best among them.
It is much larger in scale than Geumseonggak or Yeonwol. It is the top of the top among large corporations.
“Excuse me.”
Arna spoke to the secretary guarding the CEO’s office. To meet Hyun-gwang’s CEO Tae Seung-gun, she had to go through this secretary first.
“Yes.”
The secretary, who was working at the desk, looked up from his seat.
The eyes looking at Arna were very cold. He looked like an emotionless robot.
“Is the CEO inside? I’d like to meet him for a moment.”
“The CEO is in a meeting right now.”
The door to the CEO’s office was firmly closed. A meeting early in the morning. Did she choose the wrong time to visit?
“When will the meeting end?”
“I don’t know.”
It’s a situation where she doesn’t know when it will end. She can’t just wait indefinitely. Not a single minute or second can be wasted.
“Excuse me…”
“Yes.”
She called the secretary again. The secretary looked at Arna with the same expressionless face as before. It was a face that showed no emotion at all.
Arna carefully opened her mouth.
“Is there any specific task assigned to me…?”
The reason Arna came to the representative’s office. It was to ask if there was any work assigned to her.
However….
“There are no tasks assigned to you, Arna.”
“Not even today…?”
“Yes, that’s correct.”
Just like yesterday, she didn’t have to do anything today either. It seemed like this would continue until the end of this summer vacation.
Arna raised her voice slightly out of frustration.
“Then what am I supposed to do? Why am I here?”
“Just wait like you did yesterday. Or you can go back to school and rest.”
“Go back to school…?”
Arna was dumbfounded. Even as an intern, there should be something she could do. She would gladly pull out the weeds growing in front of the building if asked.
But there was nothing Arna could do within Hyungwang. Hyungwang didn’t need Arna.
In the end, she was an unnecessary existence.
“Don’t worry about the performance records. Hyungwang will take care of everything.”
“You’re saying you’ll fill the performance records even if I do nothing?”
“Yes, that’s correct.”
To make matters worse, they would even create non-existent performance records. This was an act of trampling on Arna’s pride.
She was starting to get angry.
“Who gave such instructions?”
“The representative himself.”
“…”
As expected, it was the doing of Hyungwang’s representative, Tae Seung-gun. That’s why she came to the representative’s office. To meet Tae Seung-gun in person and settle this.
Creak─
At that moment, the door to the representative’s office opened. It seemed the meeting was over.
“Ugh. Annoying. Another task?”
Four women were just coming out of the representative’s office. They were employees of Hyungwang.
“A business trip to Gangwon-do? In this weather? There’s no respect for the Ace team!”
The person complaining the most was Son Iseo, the leader of Combat Team 1.
Her slightly youthful face and small, agile physique were impressive. Just by looking at her appearance, one wouldn’t think she was a combat agent.
“Huh? Ah, Arnada! Arnada Kristindottir!”
Soon, Soniseo’s eyes sparkled as he discovered Arnada, approaching him with excitement, as if he had just spotted a celebrity.
“Wow! I’ve heard so much about your amazing breasts!”
“Uh, y-yes…?”
Arnada’s cheek muscles twitched. It was astonishing that the first thing someone said to him was about his chest. He couldn’t help but feel flustered.
Soniseo’s rudeness didn’t end there.
“Are those real breasts? Unadulterated, unenhanced by science? Can I touch them? It would be incredibly thrilling!”
Soniseo stretched out his hands, attempting to grab Arnada’s enticing breasts.
“Ugh…!”
However, he was stopped by someone grabbing the back of his neck. It was a teammate, intervening on his behalf.
“That’s rude behavior.”
Gwak Nahye, a tall woman with sharp eyes, exuded an air of maturity, unlike Soniseo.
“We don’t have time for this. Let’s hurry.”
“Arnada! Maybe you could go to Gangwon-do instead of me… Ugh! Why did you hit me, Gwak Nahye!”
“We don’t have time.”
Gwak Nahye dragged Soniseo out by the scruff of his neck, resembling a mother cat leading her kitten.
—Arnada! Arnada!
Soniseo waved goodbye to Arnada, shouting:
—I’ll touch your breasts next time, I promise!
“….”
Arnada couldn’t respond, simply staring blankly as Soniseo left.
Soniseo. There’s something strange about him.
“Ah, right!”
Arnada snapped back to reality, realizing he couldn’t afford to waste time.
He needed to meet with Taeseung-geon.
“Where’s the CEO…?”
From noble mtl dot com
“The CEO has already left.”
“Huh…?”
What did that mean? Had he already left? The only ones who had come out of the CEO’s office were the 1st combat team.
Hadn’t he seen Taeseung-geon’s face?
“He went out through the back door.”
“….”
At the secretary’s words, Arna froze.
Nothing has gone right since this morning.

Swoosh─!
“Is this the third one?”
Following yesterday, today we continued to search for the new species of beast.
By now, close to lunchtime, we had already obtained the third specimen.
“Plus one more, making it four.”
Thud─!
Additionally, Kang Tae-hoon brought the magic stone and teeth. Shim Jun-yong rubbed his eyes as he watched.
“No, no way… Already four…? Is this even possible…?”
It was indeed surprising. He had spent half a day just to find one beast.
“What kind of magic did you use…?”
“Thanks to this.”
I held out the mechanical device. It was a tracker that Yoo Ji-woo had made before. It was also the device that helped me find my lost underwear.
It was being used effectively in the search for the new species of beast.
“Then how did you catch it…? No matter how much you injure it, its skin regenerates…”
Shim Jun-yong couldn’t hold back his curiosity and asked another question. He was wondering how we managed to subdue it without any strategy.
I said,
“You need to remove the salivary gland under its jaw first.”
“Salivary gland…?”
“Yes, that’s its weak point.”
At least, that information was in my head. After all, I was the one who planned and designed that beast.
“Hey. Branch manager.”
At that moment, Kang Tae-hoon called Shim Jun-yong.
“Is this the time to be chatting idly? If you have time to flap your mouth, hurry up and move the samples.”
The ground was littered with the new species of beast’s skin, teeth, and magic stones. They all had to be loaded onto the truck.
“Ugh… Who’s the branch manager and who’s the intern here…”
Shim Jun-yong muttered to himself as he retrieved the fallen loot from the ground.
A person who is supposed to be the branch manager is now acting as a porter. He would never have imagined ending up in such a situation.
Srrrk srrrk─
It was then. The sound of trees and grass rustling nearby was heard. Soon, Rashid’s face popped out from the bushes.
He strangely blended in with nature. Maybe because he was from the streets.
“Oh.”
“Hey. What are you, a bear? Why are you coming out of there instead of the open path?”
“There. Over there. A huge. Beast.”
Despite Kang Tae-hoon’s sarcasm, Rashid didn’t care and pointed somewhere. Because of the grass, it was hard to see from here.
“What should we do?”
I asked Shim Jun-yong. It was almost lunchtime. It was time to go back to the branch and eat.
“Hmm. Is there any need to waste energy going there? We’ve already caught four.”
Shim Jun-yong seemed to want to wrap things up here.
No matter what, lunchtime must be strictly observed. What is left for an office worker if you take away their lunch break?
“It’s different from what we’ve seen. Very. Much.”
At that moment, Rashid added more words. Simultaneously, everyone had question marks above their heads.
“Different?”
“Oh.”
Is it a different beast from the new species we were looking for? I quickly activated the tracker.
“Hmm.”
The tracker didn’t respond. It seemed that the beast Rashid found was a different species from the one we were searching for.
“Would you like to go and take a look at its face?”
“Huh? Go and see it ourselves?”
“Who knows. It might be carrying an expensive magic stone.”
Magic stones are valuable. They are often used as key materials in making weapons or artifacts.
If we could get a rare magic stone, it wouldn’t matter if lunch was delayed by an hour or two.
“Alright. What captain would stay still when a school of fish is passing right in front of him? Let’s go check it out. Whether it’s a squid or a grouper.”
The captain gave his permission. We decided to gather our equipment and set out on an expedition.
But then….
“Aren’t you coming with us, branch manager?”
Shim Jun-yong stood still in place. He didn’t seem to have any intention of moving, as if his feet were glued to the ground.
“Ahem.”
Shim Jun-yong cleared his throat unnecessarily and pointed to the truck parked behind him.
“Still, someone has to stay here to guard the luggage. Right?”
