Hoarding in Hell Novel

Chapter 242 Hell Star (10)

Hyunmoo muttered like it was ridiculous.

“Apostle.”

“I’m not even an agent, but what about the apostles? After all, only those who were originally human can do this, so this alone is the best way to succeed in my career.

Hyunmoo made an even more ridiculous expression.

“It’s a snake.”

“Usually, you have to pass an ordeal to give this amount of fragments, but the boss… he just gives you something like this.

“I must have made a big mistake. Give me your right arm.”

“Uh-huh, boss. In such a case, you are demanding allegiance to the reward boldly. Do you not know the story of Cheonlima’s bones?”

“Bone of Chollima?”

“The king was trying to save Chollima, and a merchant brought the bones of Chollima and told him to buy it. The king was absurd and asked why he was buying the bones of Chollima instead of Chollima. What did the merchant say then?”

“…If even the bones of Chollima were to be bought at a high price, how much would you pay for those who had real Chollima? It’s a story that will surely attract Chollima from all over the world.”

Know.

But I wondered why even the goblin Kirson knew about it.

Was there a similar proverb in a world with goblins?

“So you’re going to become the bones of Chollima?”

“What can’t we do? We accept them with a humble and grateful heart. Seeing that a guy like Kirson is also an apostle, a guy named Kang Hyunmoo must be a hogu, and it’s clear that talented people from all over the world will flock to him. You can pick it up and eat it.”

Hyunmoo laughed at how ridiculous it was.

But he didn’t really want to take it back anyway, so he decided to let it go.

Kirsson smiled and knelt down on one knee in front of Hyunmoo.

“what?”

“Boss, let’s be honest, let’s admit that our relationship was extremely business-like. We had to serve, but if it wasn’t for mutual benefit, we wouldn’t have worked so hard.”

“That’s right.”

“But after coming this far, I know that the boss is the best bastard among the bastards I serve. Even if there are only bastards, a child who knows who he is is the best child.”

“You were a pretty useful motherfucker, too. But now that I see you, I want to fill in some collars and a muzzle as well.”

“I’m glad I met a bastard like a boss in this hellish world.”

Kirson rested his remaining knees on the floor, and knelt down in front of Hyunmoo.

“As long as my life is not in danger and reasonable conditions are guaranteed, I will do my best for the boss.”

“Don’t you usually say that you will be loyal without sparing your life?”

“It’s all bullshit. Even if you bring a dozen of them, you won’t be worse than me?”

Kirson’s words were not wrong.

Kirsson has already given his life several times for Hyunmoo. He of course also ran away leaving Hyunmoo behind.

But he wouldn’t have been helped since then if he had died.

Hyunmoo grinned and patted his head.

“Wake up. Child.”

“Heh, because the boss is secretly weak.”Kirson smiled and quickly stood up from his seat.

“But, boss, you shouldn’t treat other guys like this. Of course, I don’t think the boss will make the same mistake twice, but increasing the ranks and making an apostle are two different things.”

It was the car Hyunmoo was also feeling.

While it felt like the family members were stretching their arms and legs, the apostles felt like taking their bodies apart and planting them.

If it is an agent, it will probably be even greater.

Perhaps that’s why the whispering star feels to identify with the agent.

“I’m not very good at it, but I’ll give you some advice on how to act at the level of an apostle or agent if it’s okay if you have some spare time than the boss. The boss still only knows how to hold a tool, but he doesn’t know how to handle it.”

“OK.”

“The more families, the better, but if there are too many, you lose control, and how to distribute the power that becomes stronger there is also a problem. In general, power is not distributed to the family members, but power is distributed only to those who are representative among them. If you see them, make them an apostle.”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

“It is a matter of how much power an agent distributes to the family and the apostles. Family members are weak, so even a small share will make them stronger. On the other hand, the apostles do not want to do that because they want to monopolize their power.”

Kirsson extended his ten fingers and continued his speech.

“For example, if you say that you have a power of 10, you can say that 2 is given to the family members, 3 is to the apostles, and 5 is to the agent. The purpose is to inflate the power, so if you give out your power to strengthen the family members, you will be ignorant. That’s why the apostles are one-sidedly strong.”

In short, this is what happens when the psychology of monopolizing power and the strategy of strengthening subordinates conflict.

In simple terms, the strategy Hyunmoo should choose seemed clear.

“If you own everything…”

“The few subordinates of the boss will be unilaterally killed in the coming great war. Yep.”

Hyunmoo grinned.

Of course, Hyunmoo wasn’t an idiot, so he didn’t mean to.

But in this case, I thought it would be better to think in a different way.

Thinking like that, Hyunmoo suddenly came up with a good idea.

I don’t know if that’s a good idea or a crazy idea, but I really liked it.

At that time, Hyunmoo saw Kirson looking at him with a confused expression.

“What?”

“…is nothing.”

Kirsson kept a shaky expression on his face and muttered.

“It seems like he was thinking of the idea that the devil would cry when the boss had that kind of expression.”

“I wonder where there is someone as kind as me?”

Kirsson tried to laugh. But his smile soon faded.

It was because he couldn’t help but smile when he saw Hyunmoo’s face, who still had a grim expression on his face.

***

Ha-hyeon was busy doing some tidying up at the bottom.

Inside the shelter, the scars the apostles had attacked into the shelter had not yet recovered.

Fortunately, all the corpses were taken away by the Weeping Star’s agent, so there was no need to remove them.

“Uh, Hyunmoo. Are you here?”

Ha-hyeon frowned a lot, then glanced at Hyunmoo with an unsurprising expression and turned his head back to the situation board.

Hyunmoo felt sorry for Hahyun’s usual reaction.

“If I had known earlier that I was so easily hurt, I would have raised a dog.”

“Did you think I’d run up to you and lick you?”

Hahyun tapped the desk and continued his words.

“Since I wasn’t released from the clan, it was certain that you weren’t dead, and I’ve been aware of your location since the moment you entered the shelter. The spiders are constantly checking you. So the time for me to be surprised is long gone.”

Ha-hyeon replied calmly. But then Kirsson came out.

“Uh-huh, lady. How was it that you drove me to a wasteland to find the boss, and unleashed the spiders to the point of exhausting yourself? If the little lady hadn’t ripped it off, the lady would have gotten a little smaller as well. .”

“What! Wait, what is that, Kirsson?”

Ha-hyeon flashed his face in anger, but was bewildered by the condition of Kir’s hand.

Kirsson giggled and continued his words.

“Every night, our boss wets his sleeves with tears to see where he can sleep comfortably, whether he is not being seen, and whether he is not starving for food…”

Ha-hyeon rushed to Kirson, showing a cool energy on her pale face.

However, Kirson, whose abilities had been strengthened, skillfully avoided it and retreated with a sullen face.

Ha-hyun, who was confident in her agility and quickness without knowing anything else, made a surprised face.

He soon realized something and looked at Hyunmoo.

“Why did you make such a thing an apostle?”

“It’s like that. I used to be an aide to the apostle.”

Hahyun frowned.

Kirsson had not been weak before. If he had become her apostle, it was no wonder that he was now beyond her.

Ha-hyun chose to persuade Hyunmoo instead.

“You know that bullshit? I can’t.”

“Know.”

Hyunmoo took a deep breath and said.

“There’s no way you’d be so worried about me. It’s just that you’ve come and gone because there’s no one to trust. It’s a pity that we’re only that close.

“Oh, no. I didn’t think so casually!”

“Huh? So how far is it true?”

“That’s what…”

Ha-hyeon didn’t know how to explain it, so it looked like he was tying up his head.

Hyunmoo smiled and patted her on the shoulder.

“Okay. There’s no need to forcefully squeeze out your worries.”

There was no way Ha-hyun would have been so worried about herself.

From an official point of view, she is a foodie, and in a broader sense, she is a friend.

In fact, Hyunmoo even murdered her older sister, so she had no intention of demanding any kind of real family loyalty.

When Hyunmoo easily gave up the answer, Ha-hyun put on a confused expression. It looked like he was missing something.

Hyunmoo looked around. The atmosphere in the shelter was chaotic.

“Where are you planning to move?”

“There are three or four candidate sites I have in mind. These are the places that Kirson reconnaissance, but there is still a long way to go. However, there is little chance that they will become a battleground in war.”

Hyunmoo looked at the map Ha-hyun had pulled out. It was old and worn out, but it was a proper map that contained a sophisticated picture of Seoul and Gyeonggi-do.Of course, now that most of the buildings have been destroyed and the Han River is dry, it doesn’t mean much. Hyunmoo looked at some of the marked spots and shook his head.

“I do not need.”

“What?”

“You don’t have to move. We’ll stay here.”

“Huh? Oh, no. Wait. This is going to be a battleground where the stars will collide. In addition, some apostles and agents are grinding your teeth at you.”

“I’m thinking about everything. But I think there’s someone I need to meet before that…”

Hyunmoo started preparing his mind.

It was one of his few remorse.

It’s fun to hit the enemy’s head no matter how many times you do it, but betraying your opponent is bound to stay in your heart forever.

“Where is Sang-hyun?”

***

What we arrived at was a large drain that fell vertically.

Cobwebs were faintly visible here and there inside the huge drain where the bottom was not visible even when the light was shining on it.

Ha-hyeon said looking down the drain.

“I’ve been sleeping here for about 18 hours a day. It must have been hatched from a premature baby and still need growth.”

“growth?”

“Yeah. I should have been born to the same level as an adult…”

“It’s small.”

I had to see for myself how small it was. But before that, he confirmed one more thing.

“Are you sure you don’t remember the old days?”

“Yeah. He only communicates with words and doesn’t remember anything. He’s definitely an apostle of the Whispering Star, but he’s only equipped with class, but he’s not very strong. He’s just like a kid.”

“Kid? Kirsson said you got a lot of help?”

“Help? What help?”

Ha-hyun looked at Hyunmoo with a puzzled face. He really didn’t know anything.

Hyunmoo nodded his head. Although Ha-hyun was being manipulated, he was a person who did not know that he was being manipulated until the end.

Ha-hyun was furious when Hyunmoo ignored him and turned his head.

“Hey, wait. What do you mean now? What kind of help did I get from him? It’s just that he’s so smart that he points out things I didn’t see…”

Hyunmoo hurriedly jumped down the drain after leaving Ha-hyun’s words behind. Ha-hyun’s voice echoed in the distance.

After giving himself to gravity for a while, Hyunmoo spread out the web. The spider web that Sang-hyeon had spread out was impossible for him to hang on to.

The fall speed started to slow down gradually. Hyunmoo went down the wall and stopped at some point.

The room was still and only darkness.

Only the sound of the slow moving air was whispered.

In a space full of silence and darkness, Hyunmoo opened his mouth.

“Wake up, Sanghyun.”

There was very little movement.

It was as subtle as a single leaf falling to the floor in the middle of the forest. Hyunmoo was extremely attentive and focused on his opponent.

“I know you have all the memories. Wake up. Let’s talk.”
