In the end, Jeong-Hoon, surrendered to the persuasion of Butler Joo and Woo Do-il, but did not hide his reluctance while visiting the hospital room.

“It’s not right to use terminally ill patients just for assignments. I have a guilty conscience.”

“Think of it in a good way. The patient we are visiting this time is an unrelated person who has no family and no guild to protect them. To comfort such a person, the motive is good deeds.”

If you do it without being eliminated, you will pass the task.

However, since it was a task carried out with a person’s life, my heart was heavy because my motivation was impure.

“To be honest, this is hypocrisy.”

“The hypocrisy is also part of the task.”

At the straightforward words of Butler Joo, Jeong-Hoon sighed and looked at the hospital room in front of him.

Single ward. It is a room that is burdensome for ordinary patients to use, but Myeongil Hospital also provides it to Hunter who have worked hard for the world.

One of the patients who became the subject of Jeong-Hoon’s assignment is Lee So-Hyun.

She’s currently 25 years old. Although she is still young, she is a woman who waits for her death due to an incurable disease that only Hunters suffer from.

Jeong-Hoon, who knocked on the woman’s hospital room, found Lee So-Hyun looking out of the window in the hospital bed.

So-Hyun, looks blank but has an aura of a veteran who has been through quite a mess, had short hair up to her shoulders and sharp eyes.

A healthy face that seems to have only a week left to live there.

It’s hard to believe she looks so healthy, but it’s true that she only has a week left.

The so-called Hunter’s disease, which only awakeners suffer from, is such an incurable disease.

The detailed cause is unknown and treatment is also unavailable.

It was an indicator of how much she, a D-class hunter, used her superpowers as the illness is observed in hunters who overused their abilities.

“Who are you?”

“This is Joo Young-Chul, the director of Lumen. And this is the person I serve—”

“Hello, I’m Lee Jeong-Hoon, chairman of Lumen.”

“Ah! That young businessman? But what are you doing here?”

When asked what was going on, Jeong-Hoon was in a hurry to answer.

Even ordinary people may not know, but the fact that he, who leads Lumen, a large corporation, came to see her, felt as if there might be a way to cure it, giving her hope.

In fact, her expression brightens up whether she expects it.

“I volunteered for Hunter who worked for the world.”

“Hmm, you said you’re a young businessman who’s the president of a conglomerate. You must be quite free.”

The glimmer of hope that had flashed her for a moment was extinguished, but she still smiled politely.

“It’s not because I’m free, but because I’m literally a volunteer.”

“There’s no camera? Celebrities volunteer in front of cameras.”

“It’s not that kind of thing.”

Blurring his words, Jeong-Hoon pulled himself together not to be drawn into her bright smile.

If you get caught up in this way, I think you’ll break up saying, “Take care of yourself and overcome the illness!” And it’s like a failure of a task.

“I’ll be straightforward. Is there anything you wanted to do? If possible, I’ll make it come true.”

What came out of Jeong-Hoon’s mouth, who decided to do his best while keeping himself together, was simple.

As the saying goes, money can control ghosts. Jeong-Hoon decided to spend a huge amount of money taking care of So-Hyun until the end.

TL/N: Money can control ghosts means money can do even the impossible.

“That’s what I wanted to do… I want to grab the head of the incompetent Hunter Association by the collar, can you make it happen?”

“It’s possible. Shall we do it?”

I thought she would want luxuries, but I sensed it from the start.

And that wish was no big deal in the family standard.

***

Hunter Association. As the name suggests, it should be a group that represents the interests of hunters, but it is actually an affiliated organization of the government.

Originally, it was an organization that was founded byLumen and it was to help hunters both physically and mentally under the name of the Association.

However, Lumen, to be exact, the Hunter Association, was the only one who properly responded to the emergence of awakening people, but the government hampered it.

The government did not welcome the Hunter Association, which they had no control over.

However, it is impossible to manage Hunters without any know-how or system.

So, the government negotiated with Lumen and put the Hunter Association under them.

It was a one-sided tyranny of the government, but it was a family that could not establish a confrontation with the government, so all of their people registered as awakeners and even made cooperative gestures.

At first glance, the family seems to have lost the association to the government’s checks and was unilaterally defeated, but the influence that it started from Lumen has not yet disappeared.

And its influence made it possible for Jeong-Hoon to grab the head of the D-class Hunter’s association by the collar, who doubted, ‘Is it really possible?’

“It doesn’t make sense for these kids to side with the guild and not protect each hunter’s rights!”

“I mean, it’s the law, so there’s nothing you can do about it… .”

“How dare you! How can a monster invade by following the law? This is why a person who is not a hunter should not be the head of the association, asking if it’s civil control or not!”

Lee So-Hyun, who was forced out of the guild after stepping down due to an incurable disease, shook his collar as she poured out her anger on the head of the association.

No matter how sick she is, she is a D-Class Hunter. Since her physical abilities surpassed that of ordinary people, he wondered if the president of the Association, who was an ordinary person, would be okay, but he did not stop her because it seemed that she was controlling her power.

In fact, Butler Joo, who is watching from behind, is just watching.

“By the way, since we introduced ourselves under our name, wouldn’t it be bad luck if we do this?”

“It doesn’t matter. Without their know-how, the Hunter Association cannot function. In fact, the government is still wary of Lumen because of that.”

It looks like a one-sided defeat for a person who only knows a little about the situation, but the family never lost the association.

It has created a means to exert influence on the association at any given time.

One of them is the magic and martial arts passed down to hunters with talents.

Therefore, even if he is grabbed by the collar, he cannot make a loud noise and complain with his eyes to release his frustration while looking at Jeong-Hoon and the Butler Joo.

“Excuse me, Hunter Lee So-Hyun? I think that’s enough.”

“No, this isn’t enough.”

“I understand how you feel, but there’s no hospital room for such a person in Myeongil Hospital.”

When I turned to say that he would be taken to the hospital if she continued further, she frowned and put her hand down.

“Do it properly from now on! I’ll be watching from the afterlife!”

She seems to be shaking her hands so hard to the point where they don’t know if she’s really an incurable patient, but she is definitely a patient.

She is just an awakened person, and because her physical abilities surpass those of ordinary people, she moves quickly even though she is seriously ill.

“Let’s stop being angry. It’s a waste if you spend the rest of your time on someone like this.”

Although he made remarks that openly ignored the head of the association, Jeong-Hoon was relentless.

He has a Hunter Otaku tendency and his parents were F-class hunters.

So now I know how problematic the Hunter Association is, and that the head of the association is really incompetent.

It is just a parachute sitting in contact with the current regime.

“What the chairman said is true, but I’m still angry.”

TL/N: Parachute here means that someone got the position through connections.

“Is there anything else you want to do now?”

Jeong-Hoon, who barely managed to soothe So-Hyun, clicked his tongue when he saw the head of the Hunter Association, who had become worn out.

I had something to say, but when I saw So-Hyun’s tatteredness, my eagerness to say something cooled down.

“Lumen’s cuisine is said to be so good that three stars are not enough, would you like to try it?”

So-Hyun made a request that seemed a bit difficult the first time, and then made a surprisingly simple request the second time, and Jeong-Hoon nodded his head.

As much as that is possible.

***

The best room in Lumen was provided to Lee So-Hyun, who not only enjoyed eating in Lumen, but also enjoyed all the facilities of Lumen.

And on the second day, what she wanted, rather, Jeong-Hoon himself was nervous and swallowed his saliva.

“Chairman, would you like a cup of Cheongsimhwan?”

TL/N : Cheongsimhwan is a pill to clear your mind and it also has calming effects.

“… Do you think I am that nervous?”

“Very much so.”

“Hmm, I heard you’re a 20 year old young businessman, but you are not as much of a risk taker as I thought.”

“Haha, I’m a human anyway, so there’s nothing I can do about it. Would I have put the main director as my representative in public?”

So-Hyun, who decided to speak casually within a day, burst into laughter at Jeong-Hoon’s appearance.

In her eyes, Jeong-Hoon didn’t appear to be a young man who made an ambitious declaration that ‘I will make the world remember my name’ on TV.

He just seemed to be an ordinary young man who existed everywhere.

On top of that, there is even a simple appearance of treating So-Hyun like a sister, saying that she is older and talking comfortably.

She hasn’t seen Jeong-Hoon for a long time yet, but Jeong-Hoon has a fascinating charm with various aspects, so she thinks he has created a huge business called Lumen.

And now he was just an ordinary young man. Who is also nervous about meeting his favorite idol.

“It’s my wish. Why does it feel like it’s Chairman Lee’s wish?”

“Ha ha, good things are good things.”

In fact, it is also his wish. The wish that came up at the top of my bucket list.

Therefore, Jeong-Hoon smiled helplessly while drinking Cheongsimhwan given by Butler Joo, and opened the door to a drawing room with guests who had been invited.

Currently, the highest-grade room where Lee So-Hyun stays is large enough to have a living room.

It is a room given to the chairman of a large company or to one of the best hunters, and Jeong-Hoon greatly fulfilled her desire to sleep in Lumen.

Considering that Lumen’s chairman, Jeong-Hoon, stays in a royal suite rather than Lumen’s first-class room, you can imagine how great he was treated.

“Sorry to keep you waiting. This is Joo Young-Chul, the director of Lumen, and this is—”

“I’m Lee Jeong-Hoon, the chairman of Lumen. And…”

“I’m Lee So-Hyun, a former D-class hunterI owe this to the chairman. Hello.”

When the three smiled quietly as they entered the drawing room and introduced themselves, a woman who appeared to be a girl drinking tea bounced and stood up.

A young appearance that looks like an adult but still a high school student, and neatly tied hair in a ponytail. She looks pure, but nervous, she bows to the point where it is close to 90 degrees.

“Oh, hello! I’m Han Si-Eun of FC Guild! I look forward to your kind cooperation!”

“You don’t have to be so nervous. I brought you here at her request.”

It is a small minority elite guild named FC. Friendship Castle.

Han Si-Eun is the face of FC and the youngest S-class hunter.

She is a female hunter who Jeong-Hoon said he wanted to meet while watching TV, and almost got Butler Joo called.

“It’s an honor to be invited!”

Si-Eun looked at Jeong-Hoon, the chairman, and looked at Butler Joo and So-Hyun alternately.

It seems that she couldn’t even refuse because it was the Chairman of Lumen’s call without even knowing the reason why she was called.

“It’s nothing, but Hunter Lee So-Hyun is currently struggling with the Hunter’s disease, and she said she wanted to meet Han Si-Eun, so I forcibly invited you using my authority. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule.”

Jeong-Hoon put So-Hyun at the forefront of expressing gratitude, not apology.

“Oh, Hunter’s disease…”

Han Si-Eun couldn’t speak properly because she knew what disease it was.

There are only tears in her eyes when she sees So-Hyun.

“I didn’t ask you to meet me because I wanted to be comforted, so you don’t have to be sad. I just said I wanted to meet Han Si-Eun, I’m a fan of the youngest S-class hunter.”

“… Thank you. I just did what I could, but please call me a fan too.”

“I become a fan because you do what you can properly.”

Jeong-Hoon took a step back at the sight of So-Hyun shaking hands with all her might, who became the face of a fan who met someone she really admired regardless of age.

“I want to ask for your autograph and a picture. Is it okay?”

“As much as you want!”

When Si-Eun nods at So-Hyun’s request, Butler Joo takes out the paper and pan and hands it over to Si-Eun.

Jeong-Hoon envied the sight of handing over the signed paper and taking pictures together naturally.

Although it is a fan meeting for only one person, it is enough to make a small desire, ‘Can I ask you a favor during this time?’

“Wow! It came out well. Director Joo is good at taking pictures.”

“It’s a must to take a picture with the chairman.”

“Chairman Lee! Please use this as a portrait picture! It came out so well that I don’t think I’d have any regrets even if I went.”

When So-Hyun spoke skillfully while looking at the two-shot with Si-Eun, Jeong-Hoon shook his head left and right.

“Who uses a portrait photo with two people in it?”

“That’s a wise answer!”

“So let’s do this.”

Jeong-Hoon, who snatched So-Hyun’s camera naturally, stuck it out to Si-Eun.

“Hunter Han, will you take a picture of So-Hyun for me, so I can use it as a portrait?”

“Oh! That’s awesome! Okay! Good!”

She was very satisfied, so when So-Hyun raised her thumb and liked it, Si-Eun took a picture of her even though she was very satisfied.

“Excuse me, Hunter Lee So-Hyun. Are you in critical condition?”

“Yeah, so there’s a week, no, there’s six days left.

As she calmly tells the rest of her life, tears fall from Han Si-Eun’s eyes.

Now, a person who lives less than a week said she wanted to see her.

“What about Chairman Lee Jeong-Hoon?”

“All I have is money and power, which is my grandfather’s volunteer work. I’m trying to achieve what I’ve always wanted to do, even if it’s small.”

Excluding the part about the task, Jeong-Hoon only told the truth.

Fulfilling what So-Hyun wants to do now is not included in the task. It’s just what Jeong-Hoon wants to do.

If you just want to do your assignment, it’s enough to talk to the person for a week at the hospital.

So-Hyun’s’s life is less than a week away anyway. He only allows her to do what she wants to do.

“You’re doing a really good job. You said it’s the next 6 days, right? I’m not busy either, so if you don’t mind, can I keep talking with you?”

Jeong-Hoon looked at So-Hyun when Han Si-Eun declared that she would stay together for the next six days, not because of Lumen’s call.

To be honest, Si-Eun said what she wanted to ask first, so So-Hyun happily nodded her head.

And in that situation, Jeong-Hoon said, ‘It’s Han Si-Eun, who is also rumored to be kind. I’m glad I’m a fan.’ He smiled with satisfaction.
