The Hunter System
Chapter 60 - Men From ZC Group
The man in his early 40s looked very elegant in a dark purple suit, as well as his glossy black hair that was combed very neatly.
It comes with driving a limited edition luxury sports car that there are only 30 units worldwide.
Linking the sunglasses in his suit pocket, the man stepped confidently toward Jack who just happened to come out of the Dungeon with Alvin.
"Jack...!" the man exclaimed with a haughty smile as soon as he saw Jack in that place.
The man glanced briefly at Alvin as he sensed the aura of a magic energy that was only limited to an F rank hunter on Alvin, only to see Alvin's messy look and give his cynical smile.
"When will they finish transporting the monster corpses and its magic crystals?" ask the man to Jack.
"Today." Sahut Jack flat.
It was very clear that Jack did not like the presence of the man.
"good. Then you're gonna close the gate today, right?"
Jack did not immediately answer him and instead glanced towards Alvin.
Alvin could understand the meaning of Jack's gaze. He finally spoke.
"Ah.., I forgot to contact the ZC group."
Hearing that, the purple-clothed man turned to Alvin again.
"For what? Do you have any business with the ZC group?"
Alvin speechless. He finally looked at Jack.
"He's the personal assistant CEO of ZC group. Mr. Reno Paul." Jack said, introducing the man to Alvin.
"Oh come on Jack. Why are you so stiff on your own brother?" sahut Reno who then laughed out loud.
"We're not in a family meeting" said Jack.
Reno narrowed her eyes, looking at Jack unhappily. He then turned to Alvin and spoke to him in a lazy tone.
"What's your business? You can tell me. I'll finish it right now."
'Damn 'Damn. Why do I have to meet a haughty person again?'
["Are we just poisoned?"]
'You can do it without being clearly seen?'
["..."]
'You can't?'
["I was just kidding. Speak first. Decide after you see the results."]
.........
"Young people. Hurry up and tell me your business. I'm so busy. Get to the point." Reno said, after getting tired of seeing Alvin silent for a long time while looking at him with a gaze that was very disliked.
"I want to ask permission to keep this gate open. I want to use it as a storage warehouse."
Reno was silent for a moment. He looked at Alvin's face more closely before finally patting Alvin's shoulder slowly several times while giving his answer.
"Rejected."
After saying that one word, Reno turned around and left the place while talking to Jack without looking at his face.
"Tomorrow morning, this gate must be non-existent. And you, you're right Jack. Don't hang out with that fugitive boy."
"What's? Why is he like that?" alvin said slowly.
Jack snorted in annoyance. "He's been like that ever since he became the right-hand man of the CEO of ZC..."
Jack could not finish his sentence. His eyes widened when he saw spider webs springing up from the tips of Alvin's fingers.
The net flew until it finally snared Reno's neck.
"Khaakkk...! A-what in... Ohhhh...!!!"
Alvin pulled the man and threw him into the Dungeon.
.........
Once inside the Dungeon, Alvin throws Reno into a tree and traps him there.
"Hey! What the hell are you doing?! You're brave..."
**bakkk**!
Sratt...
Alvin punched Reno in the mouth, then covered his mouth with a net.
"Bro, what are you doing?"
Alvin turned his head, looking at Jack who was running a little towards him.
"Are you going to defend him?" alvin asked while looking intently at Jack.
"No. But, you might have trouble in the future."
"Why?"
"Because he's a ZC group confidant."
Alvin turned back to Reno who was shouting indistinctly behind the net that silenced his mouth.
["If you poison him to death, you don't have to worry."]
"Be quiet. Your idea is too crazy."
"Y-yeah...?"
Alvin was a little surprised when Jack answered him.
"No. I'm not talking to you."
Jack then turned to his left right, wanting to see who knew the workers were around and Alvin was talking to them.
"I was talking in the empty air" Alvin said as he watched Jack begin to get confused.
"..."
Alvin then opened Reno's mouth-covering net.
"You're too brave!" as Reno said, as soon as Alvin pulled a net from his mouth.
"Yes. I'm not a coward like you."
"W-what?! You're..."
"Are you hiding when there was an A-rank Dungeon yesterday? Aren't you an A-rank hunter?"
Alvin said that sentence while looking at Jack as well.
Jack understood what Alvin's gaze meant to him.
"They have the right not to follow the raid if they don't want to" said Jack slowly, with a slight bow of his head.
"What?! Aren't all hunters obligated to come help when the Association calls them?"
"You're bod..."
A plaaakkkk!
Alvin directly slapped Reno's mouth before the haughty man finished his sentence.
"You shut up first."
Oh!!!
Alvin hit his face once again so hard that some of Reno's teeth dated.
Although Reno had used magic energy to protect himself, but Alvin's punch was also accompanied by magic that could not be overcome.
"K..."
Reno was about to curse again, but he immediately undoed his intention as he felt the chill from the blade of the sword felt on the skin of his neck.
Alvin then looked at Jack. Surprisingly, he instead saw the same expression from Jack as the previous one, as he asked the reason why there were hunters who refused when the Association really needed his help. Jack doesn't seem to care about how he treats his brother.
"Aren't you mad if I killed him?" ask Alvin to Jack. He didn't really want to kill the man. He just wanted to see Jack's reaction.
Jack raised his face then looked at Reno with a cold look.
"You might be dealing with ZC group" Jack said, in a cold tone. His cold tone was not really aimed at Alvin. That's for Reno.
Alvin felt something was wrong. He finally leaves Reno and invites Jack to go away.
"Do you have any kind of grudge against him?" asked Alvin curiously. Jack's cold attitude towards his brother was very awkward for him.
"He left our father when there was a Dungeon Break, even though he was a hunter who was able to kill the monster. Our father wouldn't die if he dared."
"So..," Alvin nodded softly as he looked at Reno who was grimacing withstanding the pain in her mouth also holding back her anger.
Jack then took a long breath.
"But you've made a big mistake, bro. You should be a little patient with him. ZC group will really look for you if he reports your actions to them."
Alvin nodded slowly. He was now somewhat sorry for being provoked by emotions.
"Is he really important to ZC?"
"He's a good sycophant. He lives only by his tongue."
"That's so... It turns out that there are people like that, too" muttered Alvin.
'I think I made a mistake, right?'
["No. It's delightful. I like conflict."]
'...'
As he was regretting his sin, Alvin saw Raymond and his comrades passing by while pulling a cart containing the corpses of monsters.
"Wait here" Alvin asked Jack.
He went to Raymond and returned a few minutes later.
Alvin invites Jack to go to Reno.
Then, with an evil smile on his lips, Alvin showed a bone peg at the grimacing man enduring the pain.
["I like you more!"] exciting System, when you know what Alvin wants to do.
