The Ex-Hero Is Too Good at Exorcism

94.

next day.

I was at the headquarters of the Fine Group today as well.

It was because Lee Hyun-ah asked to see me about the matter with Sabrina yesterday.

“Good morning, Inspector Kang Jin-woo.”

As soon as I entered the headquarters building, Yuna Jin looked at me and said hello.

Were you waiting for me to come?

I was in trouble as a foreign car came to pick me up in front of my house in the morning.

The attitude of the Chinese group towards me has changed quite a bit in a day, perhaps because I took care of the troublesome problem of the Hwarang.

“This way.”

From nob le mt l. com

Jin Yuna then led me to my destination, the executive office.

The door opened immediately with a short knock, and Lee Hyun-ah welcomed me.

“You are here. I was waiting for you.”

She led me to the guest table.

“I’m sorry for making you come here. It’s something I need to find out.”

“No, what.”

I waved my hand and said.

I was the one who asked to meet here in the first place.

As I learned last night, Lee Hyun-ah is the granddaughter of Lee Jong-seop, the chairman of the Hwain Group.

I couldn’t call a lady from a chaebol family like that into my house.

However, it was because meeting in an open place was a bit burdensome for me as a police officer.

“Are you okay? I heard it was a pretty intense battle.”

Lee Hyun-ah said so, as if Jin Yuna had already reported it.

As she said, yesterday’s battle was not easy.

So, although my physical condition was not perfect, I shrugged my shoulders and continued.

“it’s okay. Why did you ask to see me?”

I immediately asked for the main point.

Of course, I knew exactly why she asked to see me.

It must be because of the reward for taking care of Sabrina.

Then Lee Hyun-ah smiled brightly.

“First, I will tell you from yesterday.”

Then, she concisely conveyed to me the contents of the gallery.

While I was fighting Sabrina, it seemed that the exorcists in the gallery had safely killed all of Sabrina’s companions.

And after that, they robbed the hotel room where the demons were staying, and definitely destroyed the external evidence of smuggling.

Meanwhile, after the police directly intervened, they said that they were currently conducting only a simple on-site investigation.

“It all went according to plan. Thanks to the Inspector.”

“That’s good.”

“So, do you want anything?”

Finally, the main idea came out.

what you want

Of course, I wanted a lot.

Yesterday’s fight with Sabrina was secretly costly.

But among them, I can confidently accept… Sadly there wasn’t much.

So I started talking about the most urgent.

“A smartphone made by the Fine Group.”

“yes.”

“Is there any public servant discount?”

“… … ”

Lee Hyun-ah tilted her head as if she did not understand my words for a moment.

So I went on without saying anything.

“I broke my phone yesterday.”

“Oh, did you? That’s all I can give you.”

“Anyway, that’s a bit like that.”

Because of the smuggling case, the relationship between me and the Chinese group was a bit delicate.

Although I can ask for something from the Chinese group in return for burying it.

Depending on what the price was, I could have been caught as a weakness.

That’s why I didn’t want to leave evidence that could be caught.

Perhaps understanding my meaning, Lee Hyun-ah nodded.

“All right. then… You do it like this. In a little while, the event will start at our directly managed stores.”

“An event?”

“It is an event that provides a free phone to the first 100 people who purchase a smartphone of our brand. It wouldn’t hurt to stop by on the way.”

Are you going to come out like that?

If he did that, I wouldn’t have any more reason to refuse.

As she said, I’m just applying for the recommended event.

“what… All right.”

“And I heard from Secretary Jin that the sword you were holding was broken?”

“… It was.”

In fact, Shingi was the most painful loss.

An Epic grade Star Cloud Sword of Anchorage.

It was because it was difficult for me to obtain a corresponding sacred weapon.

“Shingi, if you choose what you want from the company’s stock, we will officially deliver it through the National Police Agency.”

But Lee Hyun-ah said so.

It’s surprising that he would just hand over the expensive god, but he would guide it to me through the National Police Agency.

can that be?

“how?”

“We donate shoes to the police, and the police give them to the inspector. In any case, wearing shoes is necessary for the Inspector’s mission, so if we ask, the police will show off that level of flexibility. And on the contrary, there won’t be any procedural problems.”

If so, nothing bad.

However, there was one more thing to consider about the god.

“It was the gallery that retrieved Sabrina’s body yesterday, right?”

“that’s right. It’s a case we led, and I heard that the Inspector agreed yesterday about it.”

It was true.

I could have claimed that I had knocked Sabrina down and had her body recovered by the police.

But I didn’t have to.

Those teeth that Sabrina had.

Because I thought it would be necessary.

“I’d like to see some of the things that Mine had.”

“You mean those demons?”

I affirmed Lee Hyun-ah’s words.

I wonder if it was Mine who was under investigation in Korea.

The handling of the Mine who are wanted internationally is a little different from that of the normal Mine.

This was because the main body that wanted them was not the police, but an international organization.

And they have a cooperative relationship with the police, but of course the organization itself was not involved.

So, if it was just to punish Sabrina, I wouldn’t know.

Regarding the post-processing, even the police cannot intervene at will.

Retrieving Sabrina’s body and her belongings, for example, was the case.

If a normal demon dies, its possessions, especially in the case of ghosts, are supposed to belong to the country right away.

This could not be the case with the sacred items used by Mine who are internationally wanted.

It was because there was a regulation on the side of the international organization that the person who punished the wanted person should be returned under the name of a bounty.

“Ghosts and sacred objects are all recovered. Of course, the remains of the sword Sabrina chewed up and swallowed. I’ll give it to you if you need it. But what are you going to do with it?”

“I plan to dispose of all the artifacts.”

“Discard… ?”

“You don’t have to leave that in the world.”

Of course, I intended to use it as a crafting or synthetic material, but I told her that.

In any case, on the outside, there was no difference.

Whether synthesizing or manufacturing, the monsters will melt before your eyes like snow.

However, no matter how rare it was, the value was considerable.

Depending on the use, there were also those who used ghosts as sacred objects or materials for magic.

However, Lee Hyun-ah lightly nodded as if it was not a waste.

“… All right. If that’s the Inspector’s will.”

The most problematic part, the sacred god, was thus finished.

“Do you have anything else?”

All that’s left is… It was only a full-fledged reward.

The cost of saving the Hwarang by covering the smuggling case, rather than simply dealing with the losses I suffered.

However, there was still nothing to ask for from Lee Hyun-ah.

So I postponed that answer until later.

“Then I’ll ask you a favor later.”

“What is your request?”

“You’ll know when you get there.”

I just said that.

The story ended there.

“Then see you next time.”

As I left the office, Lee Hyun-ah bowed her head.

After receiving that greeting, I followed Yuna Jin to the storage room of the gallery in order to check Shinki and Sabrina’s treasure.

* * *

Lee Hyun-ah was left alone in the office, quietly contemplating.

Her head recalled the video she had received from Yuna Jin yesterday.

“What the hell is that… ”

The battle of Kang Jin-woo, who used such perfect swordsmanship, manipulated white flames with his hands, and even called lightning at the end.

Even Lee Hyun-ah, one of the most outstanding exorcists in the art gallery, could not easily guess.

It is not simply a matter of being strong or weak.

Instantaneous flashing technique, fleeting judgment, and mental strength that does not waver even in the face of a crisis.

I could tell because she led Hwarang, a group of exorcists, and had watched numerous exorcists.

He was already a finished warrior.

At just the same age as himself, to reach that level.

So today, she made up her mind to give him whatever he could without regret.

It is a tribute to the same exorcist, but on the other hand, it is a calculation to establish a good relationship with him.

However, the things he really asked of Lee Hyun-ah were extremely trivial.

Anything that can be done with just a few bucks.

So she was concerned about what was next.

He said he would ask me a favor later.

He didn’t reveal what it was, but Lee Hyun-ah had a hunch that it would be a formidable request.

“… … ”

She quietly picked up her phone lying on the desk.

The next person she calls is her grandfather.

In other words, he was the chairman of the Chinese group.

“Here.”

I entered the storage room of the gallery under Jin Yuna’s guidance.

I had been to the place where sacred things and valuables were kept several times before, but it was the most sophisticated place among them.

The white-painted room was lined with white shelves.

It was stored like a relic in a museum inside a transparent glass door.

And the area was as wide as a large supermarket.

“Here, various weapons are classified by type. If you tell me what you need, I will guide you.”

Maybe that’s why Yuna Jin added that.

Naturally, what I needed first of all was a weapon, so I continued.

“A sword would be nice first.”

“This way.”

She took me to the middle of the storage room.

“oh… ”

After all, it’s a company, so it’s a lot of money.

From one-handed swords to great swords and two-handed swords.

Numerous colorful swords were lined up splendidly.

that’s all new

I don’t know how good they are, but at least they weren’t lacking on the outside.

“I will be waiting here. Feel free to look around.”

Yuna Jin said that while standing at the entrance.

I nodded my head and began to look around the shrines in earnest.

Most of the sacred items were purple, in other words, rare items.

Also, a set item that glows sparsely in green was also seen.

There weren’t even a couple of red epic items.

but nonetheless,

“also… Is there any golden color?”

It wasn’t that strange.

Legendary items that are golden are Moses’ wand-class relics.

It is something that even the largest corporations cannot easily obtain.

So, I first skimmed through the options, mainly for epic items.

Perhaps because it is an item of the same grade, it is a divine weapon that is comparable to the Star Cloud Sword that was used before.

But for me, there was something I had to check out more than options.

“Where are the treasures recovered yesterday?”

“It is kept separately. Shall I bring it to you?”

“yes.”

At my words, Yuna Jin brought the treasure she had retrieved from Sabrina.

The ghosts were not simply retrieved, they were all neatly organized.

So the teeth of the lycanthrope were gathered as they were, not the breastplate.

I picked up a few of them and checked the weapons.

Like the star cloud sword, it was to see if there was an item that could be crafted or strengthened by reacting with the teeth of the lycanthrope.

however,

“… It’s ambiguous.”

Certainly, some of the epic items and set items reacted to this.

But that’s just one tooth each can give a weapon new abilities.

It was impossible to knock all the teeth into one weapon.

Of course, it wasn’t bad to add options that weren’t in Epic weapons, just as the Star Cloud Sword became the Star Cloud Sword of Perdition.

Knowing that if you collect all the teeth of this lycanthrope, you will become a Legendary, so I couldn’t be satisfied with that much.

So I indiscriminately checked even items of different grades.

Soon I found an unusual sword.

＜Nameless Sword＞

Purple rare item.

It seemed to have no name.

What appeared was an iron sword with no special features.

Also, even though it is a rare item, there are no attributes attached to the item.

Instead, it has a high basic attack power and stats, so it just fills the vacancy of that characteristic.

“… … ”

I glared at the sword.

Obviously, looking at it as a weapon, it was never a good weapon.

Good traits have destructive power that cannot be simply expressed numerically.

but… This sword was responding to all of the lycanthrope teeth I was holding.

Having no characteristics is like saying that a weapon has no personality.

As a weapon, it has nothing to gain.

Rather, is that why you can accept all of the lycanthrope’s ghosts?

“hmm… ”

I thought about it for a second, but of course I couldn’t figure it out.

So, there is only one thing left.

I just made it up and thought about it.

So I made a weapon out of the sword and all the teeth of the lycanthrope.

Items crammed into over 20 slots.

When I pressed the production button, the lycanthrope’s fangs, which were called ghosts, disappeared in front of me in a cluster of light.

They flowed straight into the nameless sword.

And the nameless sword soon glowed brilliantly in golden color, and finally changed its name.
