159. As a brother
On the day I drank Valentine’s 30 Year Old with my father, my father said.
“Don’t be surprised, just listen.”
“yes?”
“You are not actually just an immortal.”
“… … “I remember the first time you talked to me at the supermarket.”
Almost two years have passed since the day you confessed that you were immortal.
“It was a bit unexpected back then, wasn’t it?”
“A lot.”
“I thought about it a lot before talking about it.”
“Did you?”
It wasn’t even noticeable.
“Now that I know Mom and you, I can’t feel this comfortable.”
“You lost all your slush funds, right?”
My father’s hand holding the drink trembled.
I said after seeing that.
“You left a little bit.”
“Never forget a man’s loyalty.”
Since I couldn’t bring in the salary I received straight away, I would have received my salary in another account.
I got it all done this time.
And yet you are creating a slush fund.
“As expected, being the leader of the Phoenix team is not something that just anyone can do.”
“This is the passive skill of the head of the household in Korea.”
Yes, this doesn’t even fit on the secret axis.
It’s not like my mother really saves enough money to care.
It’s my father. I know very well.
It’s probably money that was saved secretly by my mother to prepare gifts, flowers, and anniversaries.
“If you’re not just immortal, what is?”
What my father said was brought up again as a topic.
“You know about pureblood families, right?”
know. It is a family divided into two branches around the world.
In Korea, there are pure-blooded families and pure-blooded families.
One side insisted on surnames, and the other side abandoned surnames and instead focused on increasing the amount, that is, the number of people in the family, even if the lineage became somewhat thinner.
Pureblood price is sensitive.
High-speed regeneration is a specialty of pureblood families.
Does this mean that your father is the head of a famous family?
“I have no connection to either family.”
It’s leaking.
“sure?”
My father lifted the straight glass to his lips and slowly tilted the glass.
I immediately put the alcohol in my mouth and swallowed it as if savoring it.
Looking at that, I picked out a piece of kiwi and handed it to him.
“Sweet. “Son, try it too.”
“yes.”
I also drank a glass and ate a piece of kiwi.
The kiwi ripened well and melted gently.
I drank alcohol. She could feel it going down her esophagus, and it was so strong that her stomach burned.
“Why are you paying 150 won for this?”
“That’s because you don’t know the taste of alcohol yet.”
Yes, let’s say so.
“The pure-blooded family had great sensitivity, the famous family had ultra-fast regeneration, and the last family had excellent sense control abilities. “To put it simply, it’s like this.”
My father covered his glass with his hand as he spoke.
And as I looked at that hand, I got the feeling that there might not be a glass behind that hand.
It was like that even though I saw it with my own eyes just a moment ago.
In other words, my father deceived my senses.
“Fake your presence?”
“If I had to give it a name, would I have to call it shedding a trace?”
My father raised his hand and held the glass again.
The drinking glass was still there.
In an instant, I understood the structure of the technique I had just written.
So, I focused on the movement of the hand.
It’s a trick that uses fingers, muscles, tendons, everything.
I thought I could just break the principle of turning by force and use it in half.
My father said as he put the glass to his lips.
“It’s a technique to control the senses.”
Sensitivity could be called a living radar.
Ultra-fast regeneration will make you nearly immortal in battle.
And this sense control ability… … .

“Who do you think created the secret weapon of immortality?”
At the end of my thoughts, my father’s words intervened.
right. It is the ability to control and coordinate.
All secret energy came from the blood of this third pureblood family.
“Why is it only my father and I in that family now?”
“Will it be just the two of us? “There are people who have entrusted themselves to the Immortal Church, and there are also people who live in hiding.”
“No, why did it fail?”
Pureblood families are also popular, and famous families are also doing well.
“The reason is simple. A greedy old man declared himself king, and some of them rebelled. Before the Immortal Church, the Immortal Kingdom almost arose. “This is a secret that few people know.”
Why do you say it so casually?
Well, I’m so glad I didn’t tell you at the supermarket.
Since this is a bar exclusively for immortals, there are soundproof walls.
“Don’t make this woman or that woman pregnant to revive the family. “There is no such obligation.”
“I’m still a bachelor.”
“It looks fine.”
When you interrupt like that, it really sounds like an insult.
“Anyway, that’s the way it is. son.”
You talk about it casually, but it was a huge story.
So, in fact, I inherited my family’s blood like any other pureblood.
Even though they are mixed race, that lineage is continued.
This is a fact that I have already confirmed with both my parents.
“So son.”
“yes.”
“What are you going to do now?”
my father asked.
I opened my mouth because I had something in mind.
There is a saying called ideal theory.
That means it is not realistic.
I dreamed of something like that.
That’s what corporate life was like.
However, what I felt after joining Hwarim was that it was not the place I had hoped for.
It was far from my ideal.
“For now, I’m planning to take on some work as a freelancer.”
“Why?”
The Immortal Special Forces are not the only answer.
I know.
“I’m trying to live my own life. “I want to know if I can do that.”
The company shouldn’t have done that.
Still, he behaved quite arbitrarily, but each time he was rewarded and punished.
Evaluation followed, along with a reprimand that it was a mistake.
But who will make that judgment?
The world of special species is the world of the crazy, that is, the world of external laws.
You must make your own judgment.
I think so.
So, I try to stand alone. I wanted to test whether I could live as I wanted.
Thanks to that, I had a lot to do.
Every day, something new comes into my head.
“Hmm, good. “I support my son.”
My father was always the same.
He is someone who never opposes anything I do.
“thank you.”
“If you’re grateful, my son will do the math today.”
“yes?”
“You have a lot of money. son.”
That day, I got ripped off by my father for drinks.
* * *
The drinking party I had with my father flashed through my mind.
When I tried to work as a freelancer or freelancer, there were a lot of things I had to do.
From taking on tasks to handling various administrative tasks, everything was out of the ordinary.
I have a good head.
But trying to do this alone was a pain in the ass.
I thought about it then.
Should I really do it?
Wouldn’t it be better to have good workers, or rather, colleagues?
If possible, it’s good if it’s someone you know.
It’s better if you don’t have anywhere to go.
Meanwhile, it would be better if you have expertise in processing and organizing such documents.
There was a suitable person.
I asked the gunner sitting across from me.
“When the team leader wakes up, Assistant Manager Dong-hoon, will you be able to work again?”
It won’t work.
I asked because I knew.
“I think it’s unreasonable.”
I heard an obvious answer.
Mmmmm, right.
“When will the team leader come to his senses?”
Still, if the team leader is okay, I don’t think Assistant Manager Panda will go to jail.
I won’t let that guy go like that even if it means making a mess of him.
If you don’t suit up, they might let you escape wearing a mask.
“At least 15 days, consciousness has already been found.”
“Team leader, I’ve already met you.”
“I know about you leaving the company, and I also talked about your parents.”
My strong mother.
As for how the rumor spread, many people said that his mother, an ordinary person, followed him to the company and beat the boss to death.
After hearing that, everyone said they were going to do that, but we didn’t know.
However, in response to my reaction, Yohan simply said, ‘She’s your mother,’ which was strangely unpleasant.
No, my mother is a shapeshifter, so it’s a bit simple and she speaks with her hands before her words.
Okay, let’s stop.
It feels like spitting in my face.
“You know? “My father.”
I am an adult. I take care of my own affairs.
However, if I can use it, I just have the smarts to use everything, including my parents’ background.
My father, Yoo Yeon-ho, is the leader of the Phoenix team.
A powerful force that even the Minister of Public Administration and Security cannot do anything about.
A highly sought-after talent by the World Government Coalition, Old Force, and a combat agent who is considered one of the strongest immortals.
He is a person that even the Korean government cannot treat with care.
At home, he was a father who went out of his way to ruin his son’s wallet, but outside, he was such a great person.
“Assistant Dong-hoon, he is not a bad person. “I need to ask you a favor if you can help.”
The gunner still spoke in a stern tone.
know. me too.
Moreover, I need him.
I had no intention of just leaving it alone.
However, something about what the shooter said made me tick, so I opened my mouth.
“It’s not the gunner’s request.”
The shooter’s eyes trembled. It is a face that is not good at lying.
His usual facial expression is poker face, but if he changes just a little bit, it all shows in his facial expression.
“It’s the team leader’s idea, right?”
“hmm.”
The gunner groaned instead of answering.
I got that as an answer.
“Can I connect to the team leader’s phone?”
Originally, I was going to explain the situation to the gunner and start a rescue operation for Deputy Dong-hoon, but this is a different story.
“It’s okay, but I’m still a patient.”
An immortal is a patient. He may experience intense pain during regeneration, but he is not a patient.
“I couldn’t say hello to you when I left the company, so I wanted to say hello to you.”
“lie.”
“Do you see it?”
He said and picked up the phone.
I pressed the touch button and called the team leader.
After the signal rang six times, a voice was heard.
“Are you going to report your resignation?”
“Oh my, Joongbong, are you okay?”
“… … what?”
“Ah, since there is an age difference, should I call you uncle? Please choose between uncle and older brother.”
“… … “Are you crazy?”
“If you leave the company, you will become someone else. “Take your pick.”
Pop.
The phone was disconnected.
“I guess the signal is bad.”
I said this while looking at the gunner who was looking at me and called again.
“Don’t call.”
“I don’t like it.”
“Just a brief matter.”
“Deputy Dong-hoon, you don’t want to make me a fugitive for the rest of my life, do you? That’s why I ordered him to defend himself and spread the word.”
I have no words as to whether it was hot or not. Instead, a groaning sound was heard.
“Does playing hurt a lot? Be patient. They say that the more it hurts, the more mature you become. “I’m the team leader because I’m sick. Don’t you know this?”
“What crazy talk?”
I don’t know either. I just made this up to make fun of you.
“Donghoon, you can’t join the company again, right? “President Nam won’t accept it, and the government won’t put any effort into even just one test subject, right?”
You can roughly understand the situation by looking at the spinning board.
“My head went crazy.”
“I am immortal. “I can hear you even if I whisper.”
“I’m talking to myself.”
“So much.”
“So what are the requirements?”
The team leader was quick to notice.
“If we meet in the field later, please make a concession.”
Anyway, I had to bring a panda assistant manager.
Because you are the person I need.
Excluding the title of transformation experiment subject, how easy is it to find someone with that level of ability?
Even when I joined the company, I heard that scouting offers came from all kinds of companies.
I also asked headhunter Steven Choi, whom I had become friends with some time ago.
“If you’re Assistant Manager Lee Dong-hoon, you know Hwarim Assistant Manager Dong-hoon Lee, right? That guy has hit the free agent market. “What do you think?”
“It’s going to be a mess. “It’s rare to find someone with that level of ability.”
Assistant Manager Dong-Hoon is an administrative superstar who single-handedly handled reports for 10 people.
In addition, it was a special species, and when it was suited, it also played the role of a combatant.
Of course, he has the title of an immortal who fears blood.
It was also a title that was still valid.
Hwarim did a good job of preventing assistant manager Lee Dong-hoon’s transformation from becoming known.
President Nam used a clever method.
They covered it up with other rumors, such as my mother hitting the boss and me stealing the boss.
Our boss Nam’s hair is running amazingly.
“Don’t you have any sense of loyalty as part of the same team?”
The team leader expressed dissatisfaction.
I burst out laughing at those words without realizing it.
“You call it a f*** from the first time you meet and then look for loyalty? “I really can’t use this guy.”
If you have something to say, please say more.
After a short silence.
“To my brother.”
Then I hung up the phone.
“Isn’t our team leader over 40?”
asked the gunner.
“I passed it.”
“You have no conscience, you old man.”
Anyway, since I asked you to call me brother, that means you accept my conditions.
I was going to bring him anyway, but the compensation increased.
“See you then.”
“Be healthy.”
When the shooter said hello, I walked up to him and gave him a hug.
“The reason you joined the company is family, right?”
I’ve seen faded family photos in the shooter’s room before.
“It’s a strange but ordinary story. “I seek revenge after losing my family to a terrorist group.”
the gunner said.
It’s a revenge that takes a leap forward and becomes a human. This won’t be an ordinary story.
I said while holding the shooter.
“I hate those bastards too, so I’ll help them later if something happens.”
“… … thanks.”
In response to the shooter’s response, I released her and turned around.
Of course, I’m not trying to help you for free.
Now I’m a freelancer, because my time is money.
We will receive generous payment from Hwarim and provide support.
So, you can say that what I say and do now is part of sales.
Now, where should the rescue operation for Deputy Dong-hoon begin?
rattle.
When I opened the cafe door and came out, it was still early and the sun was already setting.
The winter days were short.
Snow fell from the sky.
It was the first snow.
It was already winter.
I picked up the phone again.
I hesitated for a moment, but I thought we weren’t close enough to make a phone call.
Wouldn’t you do me a favor?
That’s not why I obediently resigned the day my mother chased me to work, but good things are good things.
“hello. You’ve been well, right? “Brother, may I speak to the boss?”
The place that made the call was the secretary’s office of Hwarim Information and Communications President.
The person who made the call was President Nam Myeong-jin.
Anyway, Deputy Dong-hoon’s problem had to start here.
