Virtual reality training system room. Training center called training room for short.

“Whoo….”

Steam rose over the shoulders of the man sitting against the wall. Sweat drops falling as he swept up his black hair.

His breathing is ragged, as if he’s been in a battle.

It was Ki Tae-yeon, head of the crisis management office of the Awakening Management Bureau.

‘It’s quite useful for training.’

The dev guys have made something pretty good. He raised his head after confirming that the remains of the monster were disappearing.

15 meters above. There was a vaguely familiar aura about the system control room.

‘Another one.’

An aura similar to his own, but not quite. That meant there was still some residue from the blood.

He can’t believe he still have a long way to go after taking out so much. Ki Tae-yeon frowned. It had been so long since he’d had the power that he couldn’t remember if it had always been like this.

‘I don’t even know if I’ve ever felt this strong of an aura before….’

Each of the men who became a member of the government died and there was not much to remember.

“It’s a bit of a shame though.”

It was the first time that a person who shared his energy has lived for so long. Perhaps that’s why he felt strange thinking that it would disappear soon. Thanks to this, he is proud to have been able to destroy the security office several times.

Still, it was right to let it go for a change.

‘His bones aren’t too fragile, so he should be able to withstand the training.’

Ki Tae-yeon clenched and unclenched his hand. The day he unintentionally stole Han Cha-soo’s bed. Up close, Han Cha-soo’s body was in pretty good shape for a patient.

He knows he’s been in the hospital for quite a while, but he didn’t lose much muscle and it was worth watching.

So where and how much should I touch him.

Recalling the blood flow that exists in the human body, Ki Tae-yeon asked the terminal.

“Has hunter Han Cha-soo arrived?”

A short beep sounded, followed by an affirmative reply.

“I’m on my way, tell him to wait.”

-Yes, sir!

With a cheerful reply, the line went dead. Ki Tae-yeon picked up the clothes that were lying in a corner of the floor.

Chijik-

Empty training room. Disappearing debris shook suddenly.

As soon as he heard that Han Cha-soo had arrived, all of the development office came out to greet him.

“Oh, welcome!”

“Welcome, hunter Han Cha-soo! Come this way, have a seat!”

A wailing welcome. Was the impact of the budget, which was half blown away, so great. Those who welcomed Han Cha-soo were close to the dead because they were haggard.

“Last time we did something really ridiculous. I didn’t mean to….”

“It’s a new drink that I made this time, you can have it while we talk.”

“Not that one, this one!”

Nope. These were not dead, but madmen. Their glazed eyes stared at him as if they would eat him alive.

There was a frenzy in each eye that shone in each color. I was unknowingly startled.

‘What’s wrong with these guys?’

What did you eat wrong. I naturally pushed the drink they gave me away. It was a drink with a sticker called caramel grape flavor.

Then, I heard a snort behind my back. It was the staff of the medical center.

“You’re not going to get your money back for a good show, are you? You’re sitting there looking funny.”

“That’s right, our Han Cha-soo still hasn’t regained the health he lost that day.”

“You’re talking too much, Yoo Soojin?”

“Oh, can you hear that? Sorry. I thought my ears were like that because all I had in my head was development and money.”

“Huh…!”

A gripping position. A fiery snowball fight ensued. Stuck between the development office and the medical center staff, Han Cha-soo let out a sigh.

It seemed that the DevOps still hadn’t given up on trying to make themselves look good and avert the crisis.

“Everyone, get out of the way.”

The slow voice ended the fight at once. The crowd parted like a knife through butter.

“A man must speak to know.”

The man who had been clicking his tongue jerked his head around, his blue eyes radiating a chill.

Ki Tae-yeon smiled with the corners of his mouth.

“You’re smartly dressed, hunter Han Cha-soo.”

I flinched at the glance of looking up and down.

‘What is it?’

For a very short time, the area around the heart shook hard. But it soon disappeared like a pain.

In the meantime, Ki Tae-yeon, who came close, stroked my head. As if I’m dressed well.

While I was making a strange expression, Ki Tae-yeon sat down on the opposite side. The sofa rattled and creaked.

“Then, as scheduled, let’s look at how the training system works today, conduct preliminary tests, and then set a date and go into practice. The medical staff will be on standby at all times to prepare for a possible situation….”

Cool eyes swept through the medical staff as if they were covered with thin ice. I felt the bespectacled man right behind me shudder.

“Of course, the development office work diligently if you don’t want to die. Han Chasoo-ssi, you just need to relax and bring your body here.”

“I want to ask you one thing.”

“Hmm?”

“Where is the head of development?”

I have prepared my own apology. No matter how crazy he was, isn’t it right that I grabbed his hair.

“I can’t leave any regrets behind.”

The training system is the area of the development office. I had to face them for a few days, but I didn’t want to leave any inconvenience behind.

However, no matter where I looked in the room, I couldn’t see the face of the head of the development office.

“Aaa.”

Ki Tae-yeon, who burst into exclamations, was unexpected. He said in a troublesome voice, as he was rubbing his shoulders.

“He was kicked out.”

“What?”

Unlike me, who was stunned, he seemed unaffected.

“Let’s see, he should have arrived at the third headquarters by now.”

He glanced at his watch.

“The head of the development office was banned from entering the first headquarters for a month along with a pay cut on charges of trying to harm his staff by using the development office’s property for personal purposes. Does that mean he’s going to let you play for a month? I don’t think our Director would do that.”

Ki Tae-yeon grinned. He looked like he was enjoying someone else’s misfortune.

“He has a month to visit the development offices of all twelve remaining headquarters and write a report on the progress he’s made. It’s a very rewarding trip, with work and travelling around the country.”

“…….”

“This is all thanks to Han Chasoo-ssi.”

The man’s voice was pleasant, his eyes shining as he ran a hand through his hair. He looked liberated, like a man who had just had a troublesome tumor removed.

I didn’t say anything.

‘It was already out of my hands.’

I realized again why the development office were so favorable to me. Since the head neck flew away, they wanted to hold onto the straw.

It was such a pity.

‘There’s nothing I can do for you.’

And even if I try to do something for you.

“That’s great.”

“Director Lim needed to put some air in his head. I hope he will travel for a long time at this time.”

The medical staff at my back can’t take it anymore. They hadn’t been able to eat the DevOps since they tried to take over the centre’s roof and hold me hostage.

‘You can’t piss them off any more than that.’

Feeling the increasingly seething air, I deliberately spit out a small coughs. The medical staff were in a state of confusion.

“Are you all right? Please look over here for a second. Well, you don’t have a fever. As expected, is it because the air conditioner wind is too cold.”

“It’s because the air is dirty. Look at that, dust is flying around the corner like that, how can you not cough?”

“Don’t worry, team leader. I brought an air purifier.”

“I can’t get used to it no matter how much I look at it.”

Ki Tae-yeon whispered as if it were strange on the other side. I coughed to silence the disturbance. I was a little embarrassed, but I couldn’t help it.

This was the best way to get the medical staff’s attention.

“Hmm…. Sir, may I ask for a tour?”

I managed to calm the development office and medical staff’s war of nerves, said. Ki Tae-yeon smiled and raised his finger.

“Sure. Buk-jang, adjust the settings.”

“This isn’t the crisis management office, is it, Director Ki Tae-yeon?”

“And you are not the head of the development department, but the head of the department. Are you talking back to me?”

Ting!

A metallic sound rang. It was a sound from Ki Tae-yeon’s hand.

He flicked the gatling gun bullet out of his hand and lowered his eyes.

“Don’t be a nuisance and do as you’re told. Before your child gets himself in trouble.”

When asked to work before putting the bullet in the body, the staff of the development office turned around in unison.

Ki Tae-yeon swept his hair with a satisfied smile. I was impressed by his temper.

“We’ll chat while they get ready.”

Ki Tae-yeon said as he rummaged through a drawer Snacks hidden by the development office staff piled up on the table.

“Eat, hunter Han Cha-soo. You have to eat a lot to work hard.”

“…Thank you.”

My eyes looking at Ki Tae-yeon were filled with warmth. I didn’t hesitate to pick up the whole bag of cookies.

“Eat something coated with chocolate. Because this is more calorific.”

Before I knew it, Ki Tae-yeon, who sat next to me, recommended snacks tomw. I did not refuse his favor.

I could hear someone’s tongue clicking behind my back.
