The Constellation Returned From Hell

Chapter 423

Chapter 423

Fortunately, due to the circumstances, the good of sloth didnt ask Choi Yeonseung any more questions.

Choi Yeonseung confirmed the information about the household members serving the Goddess of Discord and Estrangement.

So are you going to get them?

Yeah. Collect the artifacts separately and secure them. Ill check them later.

After speaking, Choi Yeonseung looked the hunters from the factory in the eye. They averted their gaze because they were afraid that Choi Yeonseung would catch and punish them.

Go.

...Th-thank you!

Thank you! Thank you!

[The Giant with the First Flame expresses his gratitude.]

Ah. They were the subordinates of that constellation. Ive got to stop them...

-Isnt that too petty?

You think so?

-It think its best to just leave them be.

I think itd be more effective to capture them and hold them hostage.

-...

The goddess of sloth admired Choi Yeonseungs desire to capture these low-level hunters to get something out of them.

That was a valid option, but the goddess of sloth thought it was better to let them go. The constellation wouldnt offer much in exchange for these low-level hunters. Thus, it was more beneficial to let the hunters go and gain the favor of the constellations.

It would be surprisingly useful for Choi Yeonseung to have these constellations owe him one.

Is it? I dont know if I need anything from them.NewW novels updates at novelhall.com

-Just have some faith.

The criminal hunters rushed out of the factory like rats, but a few of them stayed behind.

What?

Uhm We have nowhere to go...

Several hunters, including Hunter Lee Cheolgyu, looked at each other and cautiously told Choi Yeonseung why they chose to stay.

Unlike the organizations that had invested their own capital to run the factory, these hunters had just joined the company because they had some useful skills for production.

They had come here with no money, so naturally they had nowhere else to turn to.

Are they technicians who repair artifacts?

Just tell them to grab their passports and return to their own counties. I dont think anyone will come after technicians unless theyre crazy.

Even though these hunters had been busted by A-grade hunters, they had no regrets. Given the circumstances, having to return to their countries was a slap on the wrist.

Choi Yeonseung said, So... No, wait.

?

You might prove to be useful. Repairing artifacts sounds like a good skill to have. Would you like to continue working for me?

???

Huh??

Everyone around Choi Yeonseung was taken aback. Nobody had expected him to make such an offer.

Excuse me, Chairman? You can always find hunters with better skills than those who work in places like this.

You dumbass. You think he doesnt know that? Such hunters are expensive. The chairman is trying to hire some hunters for cheap. Think about it. They committed a crime, so they cant say anything even if we make them work for free.

As expected...! Managing labor costs is the basis of management!

No, you morons

Choi Yeonseung looked at the Icarus hunters as though they were pitiful.

Of course, he could do something like that, but forcing someone to work wouldnt prove very efficient. He had made this suggestion purely because he thought that the production skills of these hunters were decent.

This company managed to find some pretty good workers, considering that they randomly recruited people from all over the world.

The company had scraped together many low-grade production hunters from South Korea, Japan, China, Russia, Vietnam, and other countries. However, Choi Yeonseung was surprised by how good these hunters were.

Honestly, if he were the owner of this company, he wouldnt have left these hunters just to repair artifacts.

There are a lot of vacant positions around the Demon clan. I guess you can work there. What do you say?

The hunters who received the offer were just as baffled as the hunters of the Icarus clan.

W-what are you saying?

Hunter Cheolgyu, is this legit?

They wouldve expected Choi Yeonseung to hand them over to the Russian police, who in turn would deport them. However, they instead received a shocking offer.

Thanks to international agreements, hunters from other countries were able to travel from place to place and pursue their own interests. However, Russian clans were more or less left out in that regard, so it was very difficult for them to participate in dungeon raids in other countries.

Hunters from other countries could attack Russian dungeons, but Russian hunters couldnt really attack the dungeons in other countries.

There were many complaints about outsiders attacking the Chort dungeon this time, but the results were successful. This could be an opportunity.

Boris, I heard you opposed it though?

At Bashirovs words, Boris cleared his throat embarrassingly.

Outside hunters will only look out for their own interests and be selfish during an emergency... Thats what I thought at first. But after watching this Chort raid, I realized that as long as we can find reliable clans, we can do anything.

Establishing close agreements with trustworthy clansthat was Boris plan. Even the disgruntled hunters would change their minds after experiencing the benefits for themselves.

In the case of Hunter Choi Yeonseung, it would be very helpful if we could work together with him, given that he has several clans...

Boris was suddenly interrupted by the sound of the door opening. Irritated, Boris asked the uninvited guests, What? Dont you see were in the middle of something?

We apologize, but we only interrupted because we have something really important to tell you.

Two Russian A-grade hunters walked through the door. There was Tikhonov, who was known as the Thunder Emperor, and Alentova, who was known as the Bronze Doll.

Since they were both A-grade hunters, Boris merely asked them why they had interrupted him instead of kicking them out right away.

Is it important enough to interrupt a conversation with Mr. President?

Uhm, speaking of Mr. President We need his power.

...?

Boris realized that something was wrong. He had retired due to old age, but his keen senses, honed through decades of experience in the field, had yet to dull out.

Step back! Theres something wrong with them!

Their vacant eyes made it clear that they were under hypnosis. Boris immediately cast magic, not caring about his frail body.

He had been caught off guard because he hadnt expected A-grade hunters to fall to mind control magic!

However, even though both he and the president were A-grade, they had retired a long time ago, whereas the two A-grade hunters in front of him were still active.

-Spear of Lightning!

Tikhonov cast 5h circle magic, paralyzing Boris.

It was hard to believe he could cast 5th circle magic fast enough so that his opponent couldnt even react. After all, Tikhonov wasnt known for his speed.

Agh...!

Boris gritted his teeth as he couldnt feel his limbs at all.

In a fight between hunters, attacking first was the most important thing.

Boris wasnt facing a monster but a hunter, so one hit was enough to severely compromise his combat power.

Even though the other party was an active A-grade hunter...

Do you realize what youre doing? Bashirov said calmly, seizing the opportunity to reason with the hunters.

However, the two A-grade hunters responded bluntly, their expressions blank.

Yes. We are going to send a nuke to where the evil god constellations are located. All the hunters are in favor of it.

Dont be ridiculous! blurted Bashirov. That would cause an all-out war with the constellations, and Russia isnt ready for something like that. You havent even experienced a major invasion...!

Bashirov completely lost his cool.

These hunters had never experienced a large-scale invasion of the constellations, so they didnt know what they were talking about. They wouldnt say such things if they had.

You are an old and weak tiger. You Ghah!

Bang!

Tikhonov was sent flying, crashing into the wall, and Alentova was slammed face-first into the floor.

Got em! Im glad I got to them before it was too late! exclaimed Choi Yeonseung with a relieved expression.

Since both these hunters were A-grade, the city couldve been destroyed if they had started a fight or managed to run away. Fortunately, Choi Yeonseung had managed to subdue each of them with one blow.

He was lucky that his opponents knew nothing about martial arts and hadnt been able to react.

...

Oh, youre here Im sorry.

Choi Yeonseung apologized to Boris. He knew how urgent the situation was, but Boris and the man next to him were probably baffled, finding all of this absurd.

Boris wanted to say something but couldnt because he was still paralyzed due to the magic he had previously been hit with.

By the way, whos this?

...

The president replied on Boris behalf, Im a retired hunter.

Ah, is that so? Nice to meet you.

Boris blinked hard and emphatically, but Choi Yeonseung didnt notice.
