Trait Absorption Hunter Hunter 216
216. Murder on contract
I took An Gwang-hyun’s phone out of the drawer.
Looking at the caller, it was from Kim Jae-won, the second-in-command of the Black Sea Guild.
‘What’s going on? I shouldn’t get any calls for a while since I was ordered to self-quarantine.’
Min Do-jun put on his Tarnhelm before answering the phone.
And he transformed into the appearance of Ahn Gwang-hyun, the former Black Sea Guild Master.
Perfect in face, voice, and physique.
‘If you’re going to imitate, you might as well do it right.’
During that time, when Min Do-jun played the role of Ahn Kwang-hyun, he only changed his face and used his own voice.
The Black Sea Guild members who heard the voice must have noticed something strange, but they probably stopped suspecting after seeing the face.
‘But now I can imitate it perfectly.’
Min Do-jun, who had completed his transformation, received a phone call.
“What’s going on?”
-… … .
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, as if he was surprised by the voice of Ahn Gwang-hyun, whom he knew from before.
-Look, boss… … .
“I asked what was going on.”
Even when listening again, it was the boss’s voice that Kim Jae-won remembered.
A reassuring breathing sound is heard from the other end of the phone.
“Are you going to make me say it three times?”
-Oh, I’m sorry. It’s nothing else. I just received a request for an assassination.
“Assassination request?”
Min Do-jun said in an angry voice.
“I clearly told you not to accept assassination requests while reflecting on yourself.”
-That’s right, but… … To be honest, it’s because we don’t have enough operating funds. There are also some complaints from guild members… … .
“dissatisfaction?”
-Yes. Some of the guild members came here to make some money, but most of them came here because they fit this lifestyle. Those people were told not to do anything for the time being, so they are dissatisfied… … .
‘Is this what trash is?’
Min Do-jun shook his head at the attitude of the guild members who were dissatisfied even though he had given them a chance to reflect and reform.
“So you accept the assassination request without permission? Are you disobeying my orders?”
-Sorry, sorry. I couldn’t just let it go because you offered such a tempting amount of money…
“How much is it?”
-10 billion.
It was a surprising amount of money, but Min Do-jun was indifferent.
That would be the case, since it was money that could be earned by completing just one S-class dungeon.
‘It may be small change to me, but it must be a lot of money to those guys.’
Considering the level of the Black Sea Guild, which is at most level 1,500, this is an offer that cannot be denied.
“So. Are you saying that you were so tempted by the 10 billion that you disobeyed my orders and accepted the request without thinking?”
-That’s possible. I haven’t accepted it yet, I just heard the proposal. I told you that I’ll let you know the results after discussing it with your boss.
’10 billion won to assassinate one person… ‘
There was nothing to discuss, but I couldn’t help but wonder who he wanted to kill to put that much money on the line.
“Who did you ask me to assassinate?”
-Do you know that… … Hunter Min Do-jun?
Min Do-jun’s eyes widened when his name was suddenly mentioned.
“I know. You’re the hunter who became S-rank a few weeks ago.”
-Yes. He asked me to assassinate that person.
Someone is willing to pay a huge sum of money, 10 billion, to assassinate you?
“Who is the client?”
-I don’t know about that. I just had a quick phone call and got your contact information…
‘What kind of kid is he?’
There’s a guy who’s willing to pay a large sum of money to kill himself.
‘There’s no way you wouldn’t know that I’m an S-class hunter, right?’
You asked for a murder even though you knew he was an S-class hunter.
It was an unbelievable thing for Min Do-jun.
‘I’m really curious who it is.’
On the one hand, it also made me interested.
“So you called to discuss this with me?”
-Yes. I definitely had no intention of doing it alone. Of course I couldn’t do that.
“So? What kind of answer do you want from me? Are you expecting me to tell you to assassinate Min Do-jun? And an S-class hunter whose stock is rising?”
It is not easy to assassinate a hunter who is not even an ordinary person.
Even if you are an S-class hunter, the difficulty level is different.
Even if Ahn Gwang-hyun were alive, he would not have been able to successfully assassinate him as he was only an A-class at best.
Even if you mobilize all the Black Sea Guild members, it will be the same.
Even if you make a surprise attack, it will be difficult to hurt someone who isn’t of the same S-class.
Even Kim Jae-won, the second-in-command, was not unaware of that fact.
-I also know how difficult and dangerous it is to assassinate an S-class hunter. There is no guarantee of success, and even if we do succeed, the damage to our guild members cannot be ignored.
“It seems like you have some kind of plan since you know so well but haven’t rejected the request.”

-Yes, there is. It is an easy way for our guild members to make money without getting hurt.
“What is that?”
-They’re dine and dashing.
“Dine and dash?”
-You just take the deposit and wipe your mouth. If you take 20% as the deposit, that’s 2 billion won coming in as public money, right? This way, you can make public money without taking the risk of catching an S-class hunter.
“indeed.”
It was a clever method, as expected from the Black Sea Guild.
“Okay. Let’s do it your way.”
-Really?
“Before that, let’s meet the client first. Make an appointment for tomorrow and call him to the villa.”
-I will obey your command.
* * *
The next day.
Min Do-jun headed to the Black Sea Guild’s villa.
Because I had an appointment with a client.
‘Kim Jae-won said he was desperate to meet me.’
He said that he tried to stop them from meeting right away and set the date for the next day as promised.
‘Did you want to kill me that much?’
It seems like he wants to kill Min Do-jun as soon as possible.
‘What a funny guy.’
The drive to the villa wasn’t boring because I thought I’d see the client’s face in person.
“We have arrived.”
Min Do-jun got out of the forklift and climbed the mountain to the villa.
“Are you here?”
Kim Jae-won, who had been waiting in advance, bowed at a 90-degree angle.
“Who is the client?”
“It will be time to arrive soon.”
“They’ll be inside, so let them in when you arrive.”
“yes!”
As Min Do-jun entered the villa, Kim Jae-won straightened his bent back and looked at the spot where he had entered.
‘The boss has returned to his original voice.’
Not only the face, but even the voice and body shape returned to the boss he remembered.
‘Was the recent change in your voice due to poor condition?’
The face and even the voice were the same, so there was no room for doubting that they were different people.
It was while I was waiting for the guest to come.
Thud thud-
A man walked into the villa.
Kim Jae-won, who was guarding in front of the villa, immediately recognized the other person’s identity.
‘You are the client.’
Because the only person who would come to this remote mountain village on time for the appointment was the client.
‘I’m not a hiker.’
First of all, the suit he was wearing was not the proper attire for a mountaineer.
‘And I’m not a hunter either.’
With his dirty, unshaven face and protruding belly, he was the epitome of a pot-bellied old man.
Kim Jae-won gave instructions to the subordinate next to him.
“Tell the boss that a client has arrived.”
“Yes, senior.”
While the subordinate went in to deliver the message to Min Do-jun, Kim Jae-won greeted the client.
“What brings you here?”
“I came here regarding the murder of Min Do-jun.”
Kim Jae-won smiled brightly as I revealed my purpose without holding back.
“Confirmed. Follow me. The boss is waiting.”
Kim Jae-won guided his client into the villa.
dripping-
“Boss. The client has arrived.”
“Come in.”
Soon, Min Do-jun, who was sitting in the office on the second floor, faced the client.
‘That person… … ?’
I couldn’t help but be surprised the moment I saw it.
‘Lee Han-seok, the leader of the Cheongryong Guild?’
It was clear when I saw his face.
Unlike usual, his beard was growing thicker.
‘It was Lee Han-seok who ordered me to kill him.’
Lee Han-seok is the leader of the Blue Dragon Guild and the uncle of Lee Se-yoon, one of the targets of revenge.
We were already familiar with each other since we had met once before when we were partying together with the Blue Dragon Guild.
Min Do-jun, who hid his surprise, was the first to extend his hand.
“Nice to meet you. I am the master of the Black Sea Guild.”
“Hey, my name is Lee Han-seok.”
The two men shook hands.
“Please understand that due to regulations, names cannot be disclosed.”
“Oh, yes.”
“Please sit over here.”
After sitting Lee Han-seok on the sofa, he ordered his subordinate to bring out some tea.
“You asked our guild to do something for you? To assassinate an S-class hunter.”
“yes.”
“The target is Hunter Min Do-jun. Is that the hunter famous for stopping the Hongdae break?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Judging from the way he answers with a determined look in his eyes, it seems clear that he wants to kill Min Do-jun.
‘How would you feel if you knew that Min Do-jun, the man you wanted to kill, was right in front of you?’
Now that even his voice had been transformed perfectly, there was no chance of his identity being revealed.
‘By the way, why are you trying to kill me?’
To confirm, Min Do-jun couldn’t help but ask.
“Why do you want to assassinate Hunter Min Do-jun? Even if you spend a huge sum of money, 10 billion won?”
“Do I have to tell you why? I came here because I heard that if I give you money, you’ll kill me without asking any questions… … .”
“That’s when you kill a normal person. It’s a whole other level when you kill a hunter. And that’s when they’re an S-class hunter.”
“… … .”
“By the way, who told you that? No, how did you know about our guild? They must have been inactive for a while.”
“An acquaintance recommended this place to me, saying he had been there before. There’s a guild that makes a living from assassination, and they said they’d handle things cleanly… … .”
“There is a limit to cleanliness. If the opponent is an S-class hunter, we may have to endure some amount of bleeding.”
“So, are you saying that the assassination might fail?”
“Of course. Did you think assassinating an S-class hunter would be an easy task?”
“… … .”
“That doesn’t mean it’s impossible. It just means that in order to avoid failure, you need something that can help. For example, a reason for assassination.”
“Even if I tell you the reason, I don’t think it will help in the assassination… … .”
“I’ll listen to it and decide.”
“… … .”
When Lee Han-seok hesitated, Min Do-jun came out strongly.
“If you don’t want to talk about it, you don’t have to. But we can’t accept any requests, so you should look elsewhere. We don’t want to take risks to make money either.”
He told me to look for another place, but there was nowhere for Lee Han-seok to go.
Because the Black Sea Guild was the only contract killer guild in the country.
Lee Han-seok also knew that fact, as he did not move his butt even after receiving the order to leave.
He just lets out a deep sigh and says:
“Let me tell you. The reason why I want to kill Hunter Min Do-jun.”
