‘Remember that game you followed?’ – Said the voice in my head.
‘It must have a lot up updates since you last logged…’ – It continued.
‘Wanna check it?” – It knew I did.
‘It will be quick.’ – It lied…
and I fell for it.
d.a.m.ned be the time I decided to check that forum! It sucks away at my time!

The news the incident was successfully resolved spread out like wildfire, while the military had yet to lift the boundary unable to know whether other Mutants had also escaped.
The press reported day after day about the gruesome human experiment, the human experiments a young child was subjected to, about how it was resolved by an small-scale management such as Hero Management, as well as reporting how the place said to be the capture point deviated from the military operation area, denouncing the military’s incompetence.
Because of that the one in the middle of trouble was none other than Seol Yeong.
“You should be Hero Management President!”
“In this time incident Hero Management played a decisive role, can you give us a word on that!”
“Y-Yes?”
Seol Yeong, who was sitting at the company, suddenly received a barrage of flashes from intruding journalists leaving her dazed. Kang-Joon and, of course, Gina and Aran too hadn’t made any sort of report to Seol Yeong, she had watched the news and grasped the truth moments ago.
“Do you have a special method to track it?”
Through the cracks among the numerous journalists Seol Yeong could only say the truth with a vacant expression.
“I don’t know anything!”
immediately an article was uploaded in the internet, featuring the headline.
[Shock! Hero Management’s president — insistently plays dumb.]
It was no surprise Seol Yeong saw that article later and lost her spirit.
“I want to make just a single phone call, so please step aside a little…”
[Hero Managent’s CEO! Declares it is possible to solve everything if she only gives a single call!]
Every and each word she said ended giving birth to all sort of ridiculous articles.
Hwaseong’s vicinity — military quarantine installations,
Choi Kang-Joon and Jiwon were currently in that facility being subjected to an investigation. Separated from Jiwon, who was the runaway Mutant, Kang-Joon as well entered an interrogation room.
“Mr. Choi Kang-Joon, is that correct?”
“Yes.”
“Belonging to Hero Management?”
“Yes.”
“Job is ‘Manager’.”
“Yes.”
“I am Captain Hado Hyuk from the Hunter Supervision Special Division. I will be asking you some simple questions from now on.”
“Go ahead.”
The Hunter Supervision Special Division, Kang-Joon had memories of hearing of a Hunter Unit operating in the military. They weren’t responsible for quelling disasters nor hunting. It was an army and an investigation agency at the same time, specializing in tracking and subduing crimes and illegal activities involving Hunters.
Naturally, the tracking Division was entirely composed of Hunters, and it wasn’t difficult for Kang-Joon to guess captain Hado Hyok standing in front of his eyes was what could be considered a Knight. This special Division was the first to be deployed to this runaway Mutant situation.
More than their official name this Division was more frequently addressed by their nickname.
Hounds.
Of course, no one addressed them as such in front of them.
The Captain stared at Kang-Joon patiently. There was no cameras or gla.s.s windows in the interrogation room Kang-Joon was in. There was nothing but a single feeble lightbulb turned on, and all the equipment was confiscated. There was no need to leave an armed individual in a military facility.
He then spoke in a seemingly threatening voice.
“Starting now all conversation we share will be neither recorded nor written down. All actions and measures taken in an investigation by this department are guaranteed by the Hunter Supervision Act, and are all considered legal being fully authorized by the state.”
“Sure.”
Kang-Joon replied carelessly. They possessed the authority to take actions independently, able of killing a captured Hunter who was deemed a dangerous person on the spot. In many ways, the present days were a time where the human rights were at an all time low. Under the absolute evil that was the monster’s threat, these sorts of minor evils unwittingly became tolerated.
And, as if that absolute power was never meant to be used for a rightful purpose, the Hounds Division’s authority was frequently abused.
