I Am The Anti-Mage

Chapter 157: Greed Is Still There

"This.., what's next, Chairman Yu?!" asked Chief Yang, who didn't know what to do. He felt that two evaluation tests weren't enough and wanted to do it again until he got a definite ranking result. However, he couldn't do anything because Chairman Yu only stood beside Dal-soo.

Chairman Yu turned his head and looked at Dal-soo. He also didn't know what to do with Ji-woo. Honestly, he was not happy with Ji-woo's reckless attitude. If Dal-soo wasn't there to calm things down. He'd have joined In-ah to lunge at Ji-woo all at once.

In the room, all the hunters still underestimate Ji-woo apart from Dal-soo. The fight with the two S-rank hunters might look extraordinary to most hunters and ordinary people. However, it couldn't get called a proper fight. They thought that the two S-rank hunters were only temporarily held back and had not yet unleashed their full strength.

So, it was unclear whether Ji-woo was capable of repelling two S-rank hunters or couldn't at all. Particularly with the absence of Mana in Ji-woo, which made the hunters unable to measure how strong Ji-woo was.

Dal-soo then touched his chin, thinking about something. The rest also did not move from the room, especially Ji-soo, Jo-hyun, and In-ah. They wanted to question Dal-soo, who took over from Chairman Yu in the first place when things got to do with Ji-woo.

Seeing Dal-soo in thought, Chairman Yu ordered Chief Yoon to come out and check on the situation. He also told Chief Yoon to hold Ji-woo in the lobby for a while until everyone in the evaluation room left.

"Let this matter go. We can do nothing about Ji-woo. Instead, create a new hunter ID card and delete Ji-woo's data that is in the Hunters Association's database."

Chairman Yu frowned at this. He didn't understand what Dal-soo meant.

"Can all of you leave this room? I would like to have a one-on-one talk with Chairman Yu." Dal-soo asked his request to everyone in the evaluation room.

Chairman Yu nodded his head to Chief Yang, signaling his subordinates to leave along with the staff from the management division there.

Meanwhile, Ji-soo and Jo-hyun inevitably have to leave. They have no other choice but to wait for Dal-soo to finish outside.

However, In-ah was the only one who complained about it. "You're still a member of the Demigod guild. What do you want to talk to Chairman Yu about it? What are you planning to do!!?"

"This time. Wait outside. I'll answer any questions you guys ask later. But please. Let me take care of this first." Dal-soo answered sternly.

In-ah gritted her teeth. She still wanted to insist on staying in the room and hearing what Dal-soo had to discuss with Chairman Yu. But suddenly, her hand got pulled by Ji-soo.

"We'd better get out. It's not good to stir things up where we don't know anything here. I don't care about your plans later, but at least don't make a fuss now. Calm your head."

"Tch!" In-ah reluctantly left the evaluation room. At least, she agreed with what Ji-soo said. She didn't understand what was going on. And it was better if things didn't get more complicated and chaotic.

Now, only Dal-soo and Chairman Yu were in the room.

Dal-soo took a deep breath. "I want Kim Ji-woo to be the secret weapon of South Korea. This way, at least, we will get prepared for the threat from hunters, who threaten the state of our country because we have something under our sleeves."

"Explain more."

"Create a new Hunter ID card with Unknown-rank. However, the data must get separated from the main server. So, this is not known to the International Hunters Association."

Dal-soo then explained that the new card would work as usual. The card would contain Ji-woo's name and his Unknown-rank. However, the data would only get put in the South Korean Hunters Association's database. So, the International Hunters Association would not know about this odd thing.

"Then what if the others look? They must be confused by the Unknown rank. Moreover, if used overseas, it will automatically not display any data. And requires confirmation from the Hunter Association here to continue the activities to be carried out."

Dal-soo shook his head. "It doesn't matter. It's just a formality. We don't know Ji-woo's true strength. And we can't just decide on his rank. Whether it's S-rank or Apex-rank, both of that will alert some of the world's big guilds and the International Hunter Association."

"Wouldn't it be great if it spread widely?"

"Like I said earlier. I want him to be a secret weapon. That would make people who have evil intentions against South Korea off guard."

"But still, there's a lot more good stuff when we announce it."

"Not really. It could be disastrous for us."

Arbitrarily announced Ji-woo could be something that brought destruction to South Korea. If they recalled the case of the French Apex-ranked hunter, Fizldir Lambert, they might become the next target of Ma Dong-seok's group.

In the end, Chairman Yu told Chief Yang to take care of the new hunter ID card. Ji-woo's data that was on the primary server got deleted. And the latest data only listed names and ranking. On the other hand, information about his family and address no longer got included at Dal-soo's request. After the new card got finished, he handed it to Ji-woo.

"This is your new hunter ID card, Ji-woo~si."

"Your data in the Hunter's Association has been deleted. So there's only your name and rank." Dal-soo added.

Ji-woo smiled at that. Good effort. But it was pointless now. Almost everyone already knew where he lived, and information about his family was already on the streets. But he didn't mind it.

"Well, thanks for that," Ji-woo replied as he handed over his old hunter ID card. "Oh, yes. Can I ask you something?"

Chairman Yu was taken aback by that request made to him. And he nodded, allowing Ji-woo to continue the question.

"Why is the news of the hunters who died a few days ago at the former Red Gate of Mapo district not available to the public?"

Chairman Yu answered quickly. "I don't want to make things worse because we've just got hit by the calamity of the four Red Gates. After all, some of those hunters did not officially get registered with the Hunters Association. So, instead of complicating the situation with those who take care of such hunters, we chose to keep it quiet."

"What's wrong, Ji-woo~si?" Dal-soo asked.

Ji-woo sighed. "Judging by your reactions. Of course, you know it was all my doing. I did that to serve as a warning to those busy stalking my house and family.

"And thanks to that. Only the people directly involved know the consequences while others like the reporters and hunters from other guilds in front of this building still dared to approach and find out about my whereabouts."

Chairman Yu and Dal-soo then turned their attention to the entrance of the Hunters Association building. There, they saw a crowd of reporters and hunters jostling to enter. Meanwhile, Chief Lee and his staff were busy holding back and managing the situation to avoid chaos.

"I'm sorry for what happened to you. I'll try to tell them not to intrude on your private life." Chairman Yu bowed apologetically for feeling guilty for causing Ji-woo's family life to get disrupted.

"No need. That seems troublesome. Let me take care of it."

Dal-soo straightened his back at Ji-woo's words. "Ji-woo~si, you didn't mean to kill or beat them up, did you?!"

Hearing that, Chairman Yu was also surprised. "Ji-woo~si, sorry if I'm being rude. But that's already too much. I can't let you kill them over trivial things."

"It depends. Well, trivial in your eyes doesn't mean it's simple for me. Well, it's up to you, about how you want to do it. But, as I said earlier, I'm not responsible if something happens to people who are busy wandering around the house or my family. Don't tell me I didn't warn you guys later."

Ji-woo then walked casually to the entrance of the building. He didn't care if anyone lunged at him to talk or want to do business. He could just have pushed them back a long way.

Inevitably, Chairman Yu finally went to the entrance and directly advised the hunters and reporters. He gave a stern warning to them and did not hesitate to deliver strict punishments to those who violated it. He even spoke of his authority to emphasize the seriousness of his words.

Ji-woo chuckled at that. 'It's very effective if a chairman does the talking. The hunters and reporters didn't follow me after that. This way, I can comfortably use the bus instead of a taxi.'

Eventually, the hunters and reporters dispersed from the front of the building, as did Ji-woo. Chairman Yu then returned inside and into the lobby. Where Ji-soo, Jo-hyun, In-ah, and Dal-soo were still waiting.

"You'd better have a good explanation and reason to be able to make me submit completely in front of a young person like him."

Dal-soo shook his head at Chairman Yu's statement. "That's not important. Now, you can ask any questions about Ji-woo.. And I'll answer to the best of my knowledge."
