chapter 25
25 – You’re behind now
“Hello, I’m Yuna Lim.”
Im Yuna just woke up and looks at me with frizzy hair. Her beauty matched my ideal type exactly.
‘It’s really pretty…’
In fact, when playing the original game, there was almost no information about the personnel in the police force of Goddess Kesley, and the not-so-famous 32nd-class police force. It is said that it was a common existence of about 13 extras. Of course, not anymore.
Let me stare at you, Lin Yu. I tilted her head and talked.
“Do you have any problems?”
Then, she spoke calmly as if she had realized something.
“Ah, you are going to have a welcome ceremony. Hit me if you want.”
Of course, I have no intention of having a welcome ceremony. That’s why I spoke to her who was deeply misunderstood.
“We don’t do anything like a welcome ceremony. I do not like such inhuman behavior.”
Actually, rather than saying I don’t like inhuman behavior, it’s more appropriate that I don’t do it when it’s not necessary. That’s also true, the number of monsters he’s killed so far exceeds tens of thousands. I did such sadistic acts every day, but I think it would be ambiguous to call them humane acts.
“You are a strange person.”
Im Yuna looked at me with a blank expression and talked. And she followed up with a question.
“Is there anything else I need to do from now on?
“No, there is nothing in particular. Anyway, I’m going to learn a little about the system here from now on. There is nothing for you to do.”
“Then can I get a little sleep?”
I nodded her head, and she thanked me, then went to her seat and prostrated herself.
Kim Tae-gun was startled by her and talked to her quietly.
“Hey… Ms. Yuna Lim! No matter how much it is, what if you really sleep when you grow up!”
I stopped Kim Tae-gun.
“Leave it alone, I was just trying to find out about the system here anyway. If you bring several people in line, it will only attract attention. Leave the two girls here, and Kim Tae-gun, please show me around.”
Kim Tae-gun scratched her head as she spoke.
“The captain seems to have a very nice personality.”
“Okay, let me guide you.”
Then, Kim Tae-gun took the lead and stepped out of the office door of the 32nd level security guard.
“As you know, Captain, the system here is very vertical. First of all, the closer you get to level 1, the more privileges you have, the different salaries, and the facilities you can use. For your reference, the office is the only facility available to our 32nd-level police unit.”
He smiled shyly and went on with his words.
“Only the office can be used, but everyone has no complaints. Although the space is small, it has a comfortable taste.”
I nodded her head, and Kim Tae-gun continued her words.
“First of all, I think I should first tell you about the promotion system. Promotion is done through a duel between captains.”
“If Captain Kang Eun-hyuk wins the duel with Ham Eun-tae, the 31st-class police officer, our team will be promoted to the 31st-level police officer, and Ham Eun-tae’s police officer will all be demoted to the 32nd grade police officer.”
I already knew about this part.
Demotion or promotion is decided through the battle between captains with solidarity responsibility. In other words, even if the security guards are weak, as long as the chief security officer is strong, he can rise to the upper ranks of the security forces.
Of course, if you think that the security guard is not qualified, it is possible to kick out the security guard himself and recruit other members to supplement them.
To put it simply, you can think of it as a guild with a ranking promotion function. Guilds work together as one, but in the end, it is a place where you can change everything except for the guild leader. The security forces use almost the same mechanism as the guild.
Kim Tae-gun continued to elaborate.
“Anyway, if you want to apply for a duel, you need to decide carefully. There is no penalty for requesting a duel, but the higher the rank, the stronger the checks from the surrounding security forces.”
“We are a level 32 security force, so no one can apply for a duel in the current situation. Because there is no lower than us. However, once we’ve been promoted a few levels, then the security forces at the bottom will be able to challenge us to a duel. If repeated requests for a duel continue, the captain will get very tired.”
Kim Tae-geon explained exactly one of the reasons why security guards suck. The application for a duel in the security guard is only possible for lower ranks than higher ranks.
In addition, there is no separate penalty for requesting a duel. If I had to question it, to the extent that I could be f*cking beaten up in a duel?
That’s why the low-ranking police officer constantly challenges to a duel in order to rise to the top. A 20th-level peace officer can challenge a 21st-32nd grade peace officer to a duel.
A request for a duel can only be made once a day for each police unit, but if the request for a duel is repeated every day, eventually the chief of the police force will gradually weaken due to considerable fatigue or wounds.
‘I know the solution, of course.’
The way to prevent this vicious cycle is simple. When a duel request came in, the opponent was trampled as brutally as possible.
If you dare to ruthlessly throw out the catfish without anyone even thinking of attacking, no one will challenge you. The essence is that these people are also people whose lives matter in the end. In fact, it is not uncommon for people to lose their lives during a duel, so there are not many crazy people who risk a battle if it is judged that there is a big difference in skills.
As I was walking with that thought in mind, I noticed a familiar structure around me.
“f*ck! My artifact is too slow!”
A number of people were gambling using racing artifacts on the track on one side of the police station building.
‘It’s sh*t you bastards.’
The name is [Artifact Race] In the original game, it was a simple mini-game, but looking at it this way, it was no different from horse racing. It was terrifying to see people’s eyes bloodshot and constantly staring at their racing artifacts.
Participation in the Artifact Race is complete when you place your racing Artifact on the arena and bet more than the minimum amount.
The winner of the race gets all the bets made by everyone else in that round. It is a strict winner-take-all rule. I thought it was a game that went well with the motto of Goddess Kesley.
– Beep
Finally, the winner of the Artifact Race has just emerged.
“Khehehehe, I’m sorry I picked them all this time.”
It was Ham Eun-tae, the 31st-level police officer, who was holding the money greedily.
“Tsk.”
Other police chiefs who participated in the race looked at Ham Eun-tae in annoyance. Then, Ham Eun-tae touched the money he had won and talked.
“Please don’t look at me too badly. If there are days to win, aren’t there days to lose? Even if I lost money here, it would be worth a building. Still, since they are older brothers I like, I will return some of the other money.”
“Hmmm… If you say so, then what?”
“hahahaha. Our Eun-tae is definitely smart, isn’t it?”
‘Disgusting bastard’
Hahm Eun-tae. That crazy bastard hit his head as soon as I came and sucked the buttholes of the chiefs of the higher ranks until they were worn out.
I hate that kind of people to the extreme. A person who crawls on the strong and becomes infinitely strong on the weak. He was a representative example of the weak and weak.
“Let’s go somewhere else. Watching things like this just makes me feel dirty.”
“Ah… I see.”
At that moment, Ham Eun-tae glared at me as if he had heard my story.
“Hey, what did you just say?”
Ham Eun-tae said something, but I answered naturally.
“We didn’t talk much. I was talking to my crew, so don’t worry about it.”
“Mr. Lee…”
Ham Eun-tae tried to tell me something, but the chiefs of the police around him talked to Ham Eun-tae and it was canceled.
“Ham Eun-tae, don’t worry about that guy and give me the money quickly. He said he’ll return some of it.”
“Ah, yes, I understand. Here you are.”
Ham Eun-tae kept glaring at me even as he groaned.
‘What can I do, f*ck you.’
There is absolutely no need to respect a bastard who doesn’t have the least amount of respect just because he belongs to a police force one level higher than me. If it had been the way it was originally, a bastard like that would have dumped the catfish a long time ago. I’m also saying that my patience is reaching its limit.
I snorted and headed to a different place with Kim Tae-gun.
At some point, I took a look at all the security guard buildings.
The police station building was much larger than I thought. In terms of district, it’s about connecting several campuses of prestigious universities?
After looking around, I suddenly realized it.
‘Out of this large space, our space is just one office…’
I thought that the 32nd level police force was a much worse place than I thought.
“Let’s go back.”
Kim Tae-geon and I moved to the office of the 32nd level police unit again.
– Jeobeok Jeobeok
I was walking when I heard a strange sound in the distance.
-Kwaaang-!
“f*ck! Kang Eun-hyeok, the chief of your security, where did you go, that idiot bastard?”
“Ji…Calm down…”
-Bang-!
“What the f*ck is the truth, bring that cheeky bastard?”
‘What is it?’
Since a raucous voice echoed in the office, I quickly moved toward the door.
At that time.
“What is this b*tch? Are you sleeping while I come and ask you questions?”
Quaaang-!
Ham Eun-tae kicked Lim Yuna who was sleeping.
“Heehee….”
Ahn Ye-jin, who was next to her, looked at her in surprise.
– Iron Puck
“Stop it…”
Im You I stood up holding her by the waist and looked at Ham Eun-tae with a blank expression.
“Who?…”
“Who? Who? Have you seen such a crazy b*tch?”
-Slap
Ham Eun-tae slapped Lim Yuna on the cheek in an instant.
“Don’t you know who I am? I am Ham Eun-tae, the 31st-level police officer.”
-Slap
Ham Eun-tae looked at her with her mad eyes and spoke.
“Since I always sleep in the office, you don’t even recognize my face b*tch”
-Slap
Ham Eun-tae mercilessly slapped Lim Yuna on the cheek and continued to criticize her.
“These are idiot team members worthy of an idiot captain. Weak bastards like you are the evil and scum of society. Dirty bastards wasting air.”
-Slap
As Eun-tae Ham slapped her on the cheek once more, Yuna Lim’s expression hardened.
“What? Do you stare What if you glared at me? You’ll have to look for it today A b*tch like a worm.”
The moment Ham Eun-tae tried to threaten with the ax behind her back.
-Tup
I held Ham Eun-tae’s hand to stop it.
And he spoke coldly to Ham Eun-tae.
“This f*cking baby, come out. I challenge you to a duel.”
