Chapter 25
“I knew it would be like this.”
Killian, who was watching everything that was happening on the other side of the screen, clicked his tongue and said.
“This is why I said that troublesome things will happen if you select people based only on their careers.”
“…..It’s what I expected.”
Panoa replied with a calm expression.
“A traitor coming out?
“…”
She kept her mouth shut.
“You have to have a strainer to sort out the rough stones from those whose identities are not clear. What do you do if you’re just a talker? If you put it into operation directly, it’s just full of kids.”
Panoa turned her head away with an angry expression at Killian’s plaintive point.
“If you said you would do a test, do you think you would have been able to pick out your teammates with the same quality you are now? To appease the arrogant, the pay should have been higher than it is now. Are you saying that when you clearly know our situation?”
Although the development of this strategy has resulted in the result of revealing the incompetence of this side, it is not that there is nothing to say to Panoa.
Contrary to what she confidently told Lennok about, she also had many difficulties to overcome inside the company.
But he couldn’t make such excuses in front of Lennok.
Killian, who was clearly aware of this, dismissed all those excuses with one word.
“So that’s how it happened.”
It’s a consequential statement, but the problem is that it’s not wrong anyway.
If it wasn’t for Lennok, it wouldn’t be strange if Dyke’s plan, which had been started with a huge amount of money, went to waste.
From the start, Panoa never expected that one of the freelancers would betray him.
“…..I thought the 40th division was too easy. I thought it would be okay if we gathered the guys who hadn’t had any trouble so far…. I never thought they would turn their backs so easily.”
“I work with criminals without a criminal record. You have to be prepared for some risk.”
Killian said that while pointing at the other side of the screen with his chin.
I could see Lennok sitting on the messy dockside, smoking a cigarette.
“So what are you going to do? that guy is real You will have to hold onto it unconditionally in order for your plan to succeed.”
Even in the eyes of Killian, who has no crush on Lennok, his skill is a finished jewel itself.
It was not easy to guess which unique magic system he was dealing with because he dealt with various attributes, but what caught his eye more than that was Lennok’s combat sense rather than the magic he used.
Boldness that does not flinch in the slightest even in the face of a powerful and brutal enemy.
Boldness to accept even a little loss in order to overcome the situation.
Judgment to properly use geographical features and the ability to use magic accurately enough to give goosebumps.
It was completely different from the wizards that Killian knew.
feel at the same time
It is a talent that is different from simply using the magic formula well.
The appearance of suppressing fear and pain with strong reason and outwitting them with sharp judgment was close to a born fighter.
Kylian knew how to treat people with such talent.
No matter what happened later, it was necessary to treat him now.
“Now that things are over, I think I should call them in and fix things. If you want to work with that friend for a long time.”
“…I have no choice but to take off the success pay I promised the other four and stab Ban. I can only hope that he will be satisfied with that right now…”
Panoa replied with a confused expression, but the calculator was busy running in her head.
Although things happened unexpectedly, it was a great harvest to rescue a wizard named Ban in the process.
A talent that should never be missed when considering the circumstances of the current project.
I had to use this mistake as a springboard to continue working with him, rather than simply passing it off.
“If Ban continues to accompany our plan, we might be able to sort things out faster than we thought. We just need to broaden our reach and build our sales network before other companies step in.”
“I’ll have to gather people again.”
“I’ll have to ask Marja to cull a list of freelance candidates that I can use again. Even if you spend a little more money this time, it’s better to go through the test like you said. I shouldn’t have spared money on something like this, no matter how understaffed… I was definitely short-sighted.”
As she said that, she quickly walked to the desk and tapped on the keyboard.
in-house network. Among them, it is to send a collective message to the employees she summoned separately for this project.
First of all, by eliminating the drug dealer Paul Ackerman, he succeeded in cutting off a large source of investment that financed the weapons dealers in the 40th District.
From here, you have to properly use both methods of intimidation and coercion against established arms dealers to break through the sales network and eliminate competitors at the same time.
“Assuming that it is a lawless zone and making plans, there is a certain sense of comfort. There is not that much of an afterthought to consider than I thought.”
“That’s why there’s a guy who stabs you in the back like before, isn’t it?”
“That part has to be well controlled from this side.”
She said that and waved her hand while looking at Killian.
“Go out now. Oh, mana is going to select candidates and post them, so I’ll draw out all the resumes and put them in front of my desk by tomorrow morning.”
“Damn it… I’m not helping you out with something like this.”
Killian grumbled and left the office without complaining.
Panoa also typed on the keyboard for a while, then immediately grabbed her jacket and stood up.
It is late morning.
Until this time, the only reason I stayed at the company to work was to confirm a series of plans at the port in District 48.
While yawning, he lifted the remote control to turn off the drone’s camera that was illuminating the harbor and input the return command.
That’s why she couldn’t see it.
The face of Lennok, who accurately captures the direction the camera was pointing and casts his gaze in that direction.
