Chapter 426: Onward, To The United States! (1)
Ji Geo-Guks face beamed the moment Hee-Yun agreed to help. She was his last and final hope, and the fact that she agreed to help gave him confidence that he could overcome this.
I might be a Master-Rank Hunter, but I cant win against Lee Han-Yeol, Hee-Yun said.
B-But!
I will try to assemble the Master-Rank Hunters and discuss the issue with them.
T-Thats right! There was that option! Ji Geo-Guk exclaimed, as he finally could see hope.
He might be the owner of the biggest conglomerate in South Korea, but the company was bound by various laws, so he was unable to do as he pleased with it. It was the same with Hunters, as the government and association set up numerous laws to restrict them.
However, it was different for the Master-Rank Hunters. They were basically individuals, so they could do whatever they wanted, and even Lee Han-Yeol would find it difficult if five Master-Rank Hunters got together to stand against him.
Most importantly, Ji Geo-Guk made sure to maintain a good relationship with all of the Master-Rank Hunters in the country.
Secretary Choi!
Thud!
The old secretary rushed into the study the moment Ji Geo-Guk called for him.
Yes, chairman-nim!
Tell the Master-Rank Hunters to gather for a meeting this instant!
Y-Yes, chairman-nim!
Hohoho! You are truly my most precious treasure, Hee-Yun! Bwahaha!
Ji Geo-Guk finally started to look like the chairman of the S Group, or one of the most influential people in South Korea.

Hmm, is this the 319th person?
[Yes, Han-Yeol-nim.]
Han-Yeol was sitting in his office in the Blue House and Barshell was beside him.
He was holding the list that Barshell had submitted to him, which was a list of the elites who had recently passed away. No, it was more accurate to say that it was a list of victims who had died at the hands of Barshells subordinates.
Han-Yeol clicked his tongue and said, Tsk, tsk, tsk. Do they think I gave them ten days to play hide and seek? Why would they try to run away?
The Bastro Warriors personally trained by Han-Yeol and Barshell were tailing each and every one of the elites. They might be lacking in numbers to tail all 1,008 of the elites, but that was not a difficult task for them. The Bastro Warriors possessed summoning skills to call forth creatures called Familiars and some of them were adept in tracking too.
All they had to do was designate an area and kill anyone who seemed to be running away. This was a very efficient method to hunt those who dared to run away, and Barshells subordinates managed to find and kill 319 of the elites in just four days.
Of course, the elites did not go down without a fight. They spent a fortune and hired numerous Hunters to protect them. In fact, some even hired Hunters specializing in clandestine operations to help them escape unnoticed.
Unfortunately, the Bastro Warriors were experts when it came to hunting their prey down, and the Hunters were severely lacking in trying to trick the senses of these hardened veteran warriors.
Ah, is there something else?
[We noticed suspicious activities from the S Group.]
The S Group?
[Yes.]
Barshell and his subordinates might be adept at tailing and tracking their targets, but they were still Bastrolings at the end of the day. Meaning, they had difficulties obtaining information from their targets, as they did not understand Korean or any of the other languages used on Earth for that matter.
Stewart.
Yes, I will go check it out.
Ill leave it to you then.
Certainly, Han-Yeol-nim, Stewart replied before using Blink to disappear.
Hmm, lets see When will those scums confess their crimes? Well, Ill be happier if they actually decide to do stupid things and allow me to kill them instead.
Han-Yeol was not a fan of putting them in jail, as it would cost taxpayers money to keep them alive in jail. He would rather kill them in one go and put an end to it, as that would not place a financial burden on the taxpayers.
I heard prison food these days is better than the rations that the soldiers receive.
[What? Your people feed the prisoners better than your warriors?]
