My Range is One Million

Chapter 92: Page One 2

One of the four guys who they called ‘Mr. Hwang’, asked Gwanjae, “Is it okay if I ask you grandson something?”

“Haha, sure.”

Mr. Hwang then looked at Jaehwang. “Jaehwang, I’m very curious about you.”

“Ask whatever you please,” Jaehwang said, he shook his head and began to talk.

“I have received the report. I’m curious about the incident that had happened earlier today. Even though you changed your style, were you able to do what you aimed for?

Jaehwang and Gwanjae then exchanged looks.

“Yes.”

Jaehwang answered without a hint of hesitation. Everyone in the room was surprised since his answer changed everything that they previously thought of him.

“Well then Jaehwang, I have come to a decision,” Mr. Hwang said and Gwanjae started to smile.

“Yes,” Jaehwang replied.

Gwanjae followed, “Haha, This is pretty funny. This is great. Very, very solid. Aren’t you nervous?”

Gwanjae said to the guy next to him that had no arms. The guy then shook his head and said, “Yes, sir, but still, we have to invest a little more on our next generation”

He had encountered these issues before. Gwanjae heard his words, he was able to follow his thoughts to secure their business and allow it to flourish better than before. A company had suffered when their leader had died and they can’t allow that to happen. The leader was famous for his artistic training along with his brand and healing was said to be his specialty.

“Okay. I guess we won’t be having much fun for the anniversary celebration this time.” Gwanjae shrugged

They had planned to celebrate the opening of their company like these past years. It was a festival but it didn’t involve anything like eating, having fun and drinking. It was the kind of celebration where everyone would challenge each other for a fight. The fights weren’t life-threatening but the winner would get an award aside from all the praises he/she could get. It was also the kind of fight where five healers are needed simultaneously to keep everyone alive.

[Getting strong and winning, that was the festival’s main goal.]

They would even hold an opening ceremony.

The fights in the festival had a meaning behind it. It would be the perfect place to show off their strength and battle skills to prove their rank to others. Especially with Gwanjae growing old, there would come a time where he won’t be able to guide the young hunters anymore.

There was something that Mr. Hwang said to Jaehwang a moment ago.

“To achieve unconditional strength, you must first reveal your own…” Jaehwang understood what he meant. The roster was filled with high ranked hunters and it made it even more challenging.

“How you are feeling? Don’t chicken out on me…”

Gwanjae asked and the guy sitting on his far-right smirked. “I’m the money guy and that’s the best that I could do. Besides, Jaehwang will be a part of your group, he seems ready.”

“Sounds good. I don’t like to have meetings for things like this but some good news came up.”

Jaehwang was holding a flyer of the festival in his hand. It seemed that his aim didn’t matter. His plan was to achieve the power he needed to indulge himself in his own interests and desires. If that wasn’t a shameful act then the strong having fun with their power wouldn’t be a problem.

“Well then, shall we proceed with the meeting? Butler.” GwanJae said.

“Yes, sir.”

“How are things going?”

The atmosphere had gotten more intense. He felt warm at first but now, it felt like the room was frozen solid.

“So? Should we go ahead and run an inspection first?”

“No. We had already made an investment with the Daehyeon group to complete our first two steps. We also had a few people inside to contact with to complete the steps three to four. Everything should turn out fine.”

They discussed and pointed out a few disadvantages of their plan as one of the guys took a deep breath. They couldn’t disregard the possibility that things wouldn’t go as planned.

“I wish that wasn’t it but maybe that’s true. If our contacts rat us out, I’ll lose everything I have.”

Gwanjae’s money and power had spread throughout the world like a spider web over the years and now, he’s known throughout Korea as a successful businessman.

“No, we don’t have to worry about anything like that. When the machine is a little squeaky, the machine or its manager would just need to be changed. If that happens, all we need to do is to figure out whos in charge.”

“Thank you, Gwanjae.” One of them replied.

“And try not to relax too much. We have to personally decide on that part with my butler. We also have to trust the butler and follow our decision without any hesitation. Keep all of this a secret, don’t even dare to tell your families.”

“We’ll keep that in mind.” They all agreed. They couldn’t mention their plans to anyone close to them like their families but that didn’t mean that they weren’t at risk.

“We still haven’t made contact with the Daehyeon clan as well as the Samjeon Church. I’m starting to have my doubts with this plan.”

A hologram then appeared on the nearby table. The hologram played a CCTV video and it showed them dozens of people being escorted by hunters in army uniforms.

“It’s a film of the Justin Point ROK-US CFC Logistics support command lieutenant. Justin Point secretly attacked the Daehyeon clan and they came through the gate.”

“Hm, how did they escape.” One of them asked.

“They didn’t. They couldn’t find a way to escape out of the gate. Their families even tried to keep their whereabouts a secret to hide the incident.”

“Great.”

“The Justin Point mining industry management is something that we need to avoid. They react quickly in order to avoid any damages because the situations within the dominant structures were much worse than we had expected.”

“We could show it but something smells fishy.”

“I see. Actually, Jaehwang’s friend gave us a piece of a pretty solid information”

Click… Click

A list then showed up on the screen.

“We’re currently investigating what he had said. What we have here is a list of the most talented hunters that the Daehyeon group supported in this country for these past three years. Out of 578 of them, 443 are already dead. It always points to a missing person’s whereabouts.” Mr. Hwang said and the strength in Jaehwang’s first automatically disappeared.

Gwanjae looked at the hologram and shook his head saying, “First, looks like we’re going to have to find out what the Daehyeon members are up to. So now… Jaehwang…”

“Yes, grandfather?”

“Did happen to see the person who’s directly involved while you were in that place? I want to hear what you think their plan is.”

He then told them what happened. He finished telling their entire story and Gwanjae then took a deep breath. “We surely have underestimated the Samjeon church. We could join forces with the Oaks…”

“It’s clear that they’ve teamed up with the Daehyeon group for this mission,” One of them replied.

“You’re right. It seems that we don’t know anything about that group at all but everything starts at some point. The Daehyeon group needs to be punished for what they’ve done”

“But anyone who messes with the Daehyeon group isn’t just let off…”

“They know everything about us. They could stop us at our leisure if we’re not really careful.” One of the guys added.

“They have lots of money and power. It’ll be hard to go up against them but we just have to plan everything just right. We should also consider the country’s flexible economy as a problem.”

“True, That’s something we can’t ignore.”

“…and the Daehyeon’s group influence on Korea can’t be ignored as well. Besides, they’ve been in this for a long time now, they have experience and we can’t rule that out.”

“The sun is unlikely to shine on those who fall far. If we turn their supporters against them then they wouldn’t have it easy.” Everything was quiet until one of the businessmen nodded his head.

Gwanjae then followed and said, “The people today have no sense of pride. What about those guys in the masks? We have to come up with something else.”

Everyone fell into silence.

“Jaehwang.”

“Yes?”

“What do you think?” Gwanjae asked and he then took a moment to think. “Do you think that it would get worse if we avoid it?”

“I want to check and examine this problem with my own eyes.” He simply replied.

“Hm, is this because of your parents?” Jaehwang nodded his head. Jaehwang wanted to investigate it himself and he wanted to kill everyone whos involved. After hearing everyone else’s opinions, he decided that there was no better choice.

“Yes.”

Gwanjae closed his eyes after hearing his answer. He then opened his eyes and turned to his right. “Butler…”

“Whatever you say, maybe you’re on the right path but how can we expect this to go with well with your help?” Gwanjae asked and Mr. Hwang looked over at Jaehwang in surprise.

Mr. Hwang took a moment to think and then replied, “If I were to get directly involved then… We won’t have to invest anything into the Daehyeon group.”

“Really?” One of them said.

“Yes. We could sneak into their base and get a hold of all the information they have and make a hit list of those who would get in our way or, we could just plan a surprise attack at their base.”

Gwanjae then turned to Jaehwang and said, “What do you think?”

“Sounds good, ” Jaehwang said. The remaining two businessmen were surprised. They just paid attention to the conversation and didn’t share much input.

Mr. Hwang was a high-ranked level 7 hunter so no one doubted his skills at plotting assassinations. Jaehwang would be of use to them but when it comes into that, they had to acknowledge Gwanjae’s words. With the help of Jaehwang and the advice of Gwanjae, they would be unstoppable.

“I have a request,” Jaehwang said.

“What is it?” Gwanjae replied.

“You should help my friend Dongchul by training him.”

Gwanjae then smiled and shook his head in agreement. “Alright, I’ll get on that.”

He felt a little displeased but Gwanjae was not the type of person to fall deep into retirement especially in a situation like this.

“Let’s not get our hopes up so much. Things could change… let’s try our best to keep everyone alive for now.” Jaehwang continued to speak.

“Sure, is your friend strong-minded though?”

Dongchul was having a bit of a hard time during their regular training.

“I threatened him a bit and then attacked him a few times earlier but he’s fine.”

“Wow, your friend surely wants to live. Okay, what did you want from him?” Gwanjae asked.

“Should I ask for more?”

“Phew..”

“Hm…”

He may have come off as arrogant but Gwanjae nodded his head and turned to his butler. “Butler.”

“Yes?”

“Alert everyone.”

“Huh? Right now?…”

“Yes, it would be great to start now. We have to keep everything in order…”

“Got it.”

“Jaehwang.”

“Yes, grandfather?”

“Be sure to keep this plan a secret for now. We’ll talk more about everything soon.”

That wasn’t going to be an easy task but he knew that he could manage so he smiled and said, “Okay.”

“Everything starts today,” Gwanjae said with a voice filled with determination. “…and send your friend to me so I could train him. I have to see what needs to be improved.”
