Devaluation (11) "That was a close call......" Back at their base, the mercenaries were catching their breath while adjusting their clothes. "What was in the car? Can we recover any of it?" "We got all the important stuff out. Just some explosives left... The car itself is the problem." "Any intelligence leaks?" "We blew it up by remote control, so even if they search it, they won't be able to track us properly." "That's a silver lining, I guess." In mercenary work, you couldn't…-

Devaluation (10) "Boss? Wait a moment." A man who was hiding inside the building carefully revealed himself. "Why, again? We're resolving this through dialogue. We're not thieves; we should properly compensate the warriors who came out here after such hardship..." "Those guys received orders from a corporation." The atmosphere instantly froze. Doris could only be surprised that Hansan's security was this lax as she clenched her teeth. "Fumiko, Security A. It's money and security at a…

Choice (2) Many people flocked to Stella City. People of many races and different genders arrived here just to make money and fulfill their dreams. Most of this process was achieved through crime. Working as an ordinary laborer was considered a life without a future. And they tried not to forget their roots. It was also something that was encouraged. The "Korean-style" culture that had settled in various places of Stella City through Hansan created a sense of sameness among them. Just as…

Choice (1) "T-this is a misunderstanding. Hansan couldn't possibly have been involved in something like this!" A Korean man in a suit was desperately claiming his innocence. But the police officer sitting in front of him was only looking at him with tired eyes. Under normal circumstances, he might have been anxious. Hansan employees who were occasionally brought in would leave the police station without incident, as if flaunting their power. But things were different now. The police knew well…

Refining (19) 'Up to here.......' Jang Guhan gritted his teeth. He hadn't thought Han Sanwoo’s influence would reach this far. It was all intentional. Perhaps from the moment he caused trouble at the food factory, so unlike his usual self, he had foreseen everything. The large elderly man introduced himself as a security guard from Hansan Electronics, but upon closer inspection, there were numerous suspicious points. Considering the element of surprise, he still possessed the judgment and…

Refining (18) Most people working at Hansan didn't feel any particular sense of crisis. Although Han Sanwoo had been behaving strangely, in their minds, Hansan was strong enough not to be shaken by such eccentricities. They weren't aware that a scheme was unfolding. They thought the incidents related to Enzo's words and actions were merely checks from other companies that a corporation like Hansan commonly experiences. Han Sanwoo is a member of the Hansan family. When he gives an order, it's…

Refining (17) The plan collapsed like a fantasy. Those gathered were blaming each other's mistakes without exception. "You couldn't even keep one worker's mouth shut and caused this disaster. You should be ashamed!" "A-are you blaming us? If that Hansan employee hadn't met with Enzo at that time, this wouldn't have happened!" "Then what should we have done?" "You should have managed them!" "Manage? While President Han Sanwoo was watching with eagle eyes, should we have managed each…

Refining (16) "Isn't this crossing the line? Hasn't this become a one-sided situation where Hansan suffers all the losses?" Many people had united for the same goal. Inevitably, someone had to sacrifice and take losses. Those who found themselves on the discarded side spewed out fiery anger. "This happened because of Han Sanwoo's unilateral decision. How else would we counter the new bill if not by holding Hansan responsible?" "Weren't we cooperating in this matter precisely to prevent such…

Refining (15) Non-lethal bullets work effectively in most situations. Regular bullets can be stopped by reinforced skin or other protective measures. Of course, this was meaningless information against those thugs. Against proper mercenaries, destructive power couldn't be guaranteed. Unless it's an extreme case like Brown Hood, most mercenaries or gang members wear implants. Non-lethal bullets work on them. They're much more expensive than regular bullets, but I didn't need to worry about…

Refining (14) Street lamps were a very simple and effective crime prevention device. Criminals hesitate to commit crimes with the slightest hint that someone might be watching their actions. Even the thugs of White Mountain Street, where crime was as common as breathing, were not much different. But instead of taking the sensible approach of not committing crimes, they employed the efficient strategy of shattering the street lamps to pieces. The night road was dark. The lights of buildings…
