Chapter 71
Chapter 71 . The man with the flute? Kang Chul-in was truly angry .
They definitely needed the 500L of tree sap by today . If not, they wouldn’t be able to get 1500L, which made the 6000 bottles of Lang Bros .
In order to deliver their products in time, they needed to make sure that nothing went wrong .
But… only 60% of their expected amount had come .
“Huuu…”
Kang Chul-in inhaled deeply, trying his best not to explode in rage .
There must be a reason for this . Otherwise, there would be no shortage in supply . He knew that it wasn’t the civilians being lazy, there must be a cause . Whether it was enemy raid, a monster appearing, or something else .
But even though he knew this, it didn’t change the fact that he was angry .
This was a problem of trust .
Old man Kwon had completely put his trust in Kang Chul-in, and marketed a huge product, using his personal money and constructing the Galaxy Corporation .
He had taken care of Kwak-jung for him, given him a mansion in Seocho, as well as gotten him several cars .
If he was unable to meet his end of the bargain, that would make him nothing else but a liar .
Their harmonious relationship might break off, and it would also be embarrassing to face Old man Kwon like this .
For someone like Kang Chul-in, who never went back on his promises, this was very rage-inducing .
“Director, don’t you think we’re missing just a bit of products?”
The one in charge of shipping the products said .
“Yes, we are missing some . ”
“There must be a problem in Pangaea . I will tell the higher-ups about the problems, so you should just get to putting it in the storage area . ”
The ‘higher-ups’ he said was referring to Old man Kwon .
“Yes, director . ”
And as soon as he ordered them, he rode on his Sesto Elemento, and headed towards Yeouido .
Because this dimensional door was not for humans, he had to go to the 63 building and move back towards Laputa .
“Old man . ” Kang Chul-in decided to call Old man Kwon on the way .
“Kuku, what is it? Oh, is today when the products come in?”
“Old man, there’s a problem . ”
Kang Chul-in decided to tell him the truth, and apologize . It wasn’t like Kang Chul-in to avoid these kind of things .
“Huh? What do you mean problem?”“Only 300L of the products have come in . It looks like there’s a problem in our territory . ”
“Oh, and here I was, thinking it was something big . ”
Old man Kwon was surprisingly calm, and didn’t seem to care much .
“Kuku, these things happen when you do business . ”
“You shouldn’t be feeling to well though?”
“Well, I trust you, so what is there to be upset about? Aren’t you going to solve the problem soon enough anyway?”
Old man Kwon really didn’t seem to mind .
“Oh, let me ask you one thing . ”
“What is it?”
“Remember… the peacock dragon meat? Hmm… hmm… yes, that thing… was very good . ”
Kang Chul-in suddenly felt that the talk was going to get annoying .
“The, you know, right?”
“What?”
“The celebrity Lee Eun-mi! Ms . Lee Eun-mi . ”
“Who is…”
“Huhu, do you not even watch TV shows or Drama? Tzzt tzzt, to think that you don’t even know the famous ‘Korean aunt . ”“One of many?”
“Yes, 37 teenagers under the age of 16 have gone missing . All vanished . Without a single trace . ”
And listening to this, Kang Chul-in understood .
“Podolski . ”
Kang Chul-in called Podolski .
“Have you investigated?”
“Yes, milord . After the disappearance, I’ve called in adventurers to go scout for information . ”
“And the result?”
“Everyone went missing . ”
The more they spoke, the worse it got .
To think that his precious ‘Team Slayers’ went missing?
“Is there a chance that it is an attack of another Lord or a group of monsters?”
“No, sir . ”
“None at all?”
“There is none at all . There are no footsteps, blood, or any trace that they have invaded the territory . This Podolski, I can bet my life on this . ”
It was a mystery .
There were no trace of enemies, but only missing teenagers and adventurers?
…What kind of situation is this?
‘It’s not like it is Pied Piper of Hamelin or something . ’
Kang Chul-in sighed, thinking of the german folk-tale about the Pied Piper of Hamelin .
“Ugh, I nearly died . ”
It was that moment .
“I found it, I found it!”
A man walked into the hall, with a proud expression .
Ruff Ruff!
And a Welsh Corgi followed behind that man .
‘God dammit . ’
Looking at the man with the dog, Kang Chul-in’s facial expression got even worse .
“Yo, Chul-in!”
The man, Dorian Explorer waved his hand at Kang Chul-in, smiling .
And the one following him was the S rank unit, a seeker .
Dorian had picked an S rank unit in the past, but to think that he would do so again . It was true that a man that succeeds one could do so again .
“Why are you in my territory?”
Kang Chul-in spoke, even more annoyed now .
“Cuz’ I’m bored? There’s nothing much to do around my territory, so I decided to go adventuring . And when I came near this area, I thought of you, and came here!”
“… But your secretary will start nagging you again?”
Kang Chul-in remembered Dorian’s secretary, a small fairy like tinkerbell, that nagged all day .
“… Please don’t talk about Pixie . ”
Dorian spoke in a tired expression . It seemed like he too, was fed up .
“Oh, right!”
Dorian slapped his forehead, and spoke .
“I found it!”magic
“Found what?”
“Where the missing ones are!”
Surprisingly, it seemed like Dorian was here in order to help him with this situation .
“Dungeon, it’s a dungeon . ”
“A dungeon?”
“Kang Chul-in, there’s a dungeon right under your territory . ”
