Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant

An Su-ho asked,@@novelbin@@

"Are you sure?"

— Yes, I'm certain.

Jo Jin-hwi was serious.

He wasn't the type to joke about something like this, and he had already completed cross-verification before calling Su-ho.

Su-ho knew that as well, so he didn’t press further.

Instead, he rubbed his temples and continued,

"The person who first proposed the Loot Ownership Policy was Yuk Kyung-bae, right? The first president of the Grand Hunter Association."

— Yes, that’s correct.

Yuk Kyung-bae.

He had been the first appointed president of the Grand Hunter Association. If the second president, Jang Kyung-hwan, was nicknamed the Dark Lord, then Yuk Kyung-bae was even worse—a tyrant who wielded his power arbitrarily.

And it wasn’t surprising.

Back when the Grand Hunter Association was first established, Awakened individuals weren’t even treated as human beings—they were seen as monsters.

‘That’s why so many absurd policies were created back then.’

Looking back, it was ridiculous.

The only reason they could even fight against Gates was because of the Awakened, yet instead of treating them as heroes, they were labeled as monsters.

But the most absurd thing of all was that, despite being the worst of the worst in the eyes of government-employed Hunters, Yuk Kyung-bae was somehow recognized for his "achievements" and given an even higher position.

‘Later, Jang Kyung-hwan’s antics overshadowed him so much that Yuk Kyung-bae was almost forgotten as a former president of the association…’

And now, out of nowhere, he suddenly resurfaces.

Not that it was completely unexpected.

After all, Yuk Kyung-bae had also been involved in the redevelopment Gates, sticking his fingers into that pie as well.

Su-ho asked,

"So, why is this guy suddenly causing a fuss now?"

— It’s because of Jang Kyung-hwan.

"What about him?"

— During the recent issue, Jang Kyung-hwan claimed it wasn’t his fault but the fault of the person who originally made the law. That pissed off Yuk Kyung-bae.

"Oh?"

Right.
