Chapter 189
1.
The guild leader, Ha Eung Eung, often wore a mysterious expression that seemed to pierce through the hearts of others with her occasional casual remarks, which, despite appearing indifferent, hit their mark with uncanny precision.
Contrary to the popular perception of her as a parachute recruit, those who had met Min Woo-seong in person couldn’t help but give him a second glance.
“Min Woo-seong, the executive... doesn’t he have a certain charm? His skin is great too.”
“I know, right? His facial features are a bit off, but the guy is sensitive, you know?”
Min Woo-seong, the modestly handsome man.
The fact that women harbored such feelings was something he could read through his mind-reading skills. This made the Ha Nam faction life feel increasingly awkward for him.
‘A reputation that doesn’t fit.’
Min Woo-seong, who had often been involved with criminals hiding all sorts of dirty secrets under the guise of the guild’s orders.
The Ha Nam faction guild members who showed such pure affection and subtle fondness were completely unfamiliar to him—people he had never met in his lifetime.
"Ah, so you were here, you bastard."
“Ah, so you were here, you bastard.”
In this regard, Lee So-hye was quite a contrast.
Could she be said to be true to both her words and actions?
He wished she had a little more of the fake politeness others usually show.
Her intense dislike for people who hid their true thoughts made him wish she would just fake it a little.
In short, she was an unusual woman.
“I saw the Whip Simulator, Manager. Your gaming skills are surprisingly impressive.”
“Yeah, thanks. But you have some time, right? I know you don’t have much to do these days.”
“What do you want me to do now?”
Lee So-hye, who was usually docile in front of Kim Je-cheol and Ha Eung Eung, wasn’t so with everyone else.
She easily bullied timid or passive men, treating them like playthings.
“Get me an editor for the Silent Swordsman’s broadcast. Someone who can run a V-Tube channel and upload the content.”
“Why are you asking me...?”
“If I could, I would do it myself, but I don’t have the time to hone my skills.”
“There’s Ujiwoo, right?”
“Ujiwoo is nice, but he’s a bit dumb.”
This guy really says exactly what’s on his mind.
Min Woo-seong couldn’t help but admire her for her brutal honesty.
Instead of discomfort, it made him like her more.
“What about Seong Gyeong-seok?”
“He’s too busy to even show his face.”
“There’s no one suitable, huh?”
“The only person I can think of, who’s a bit free and has a good head on his shoulders, is you, among the executives.”
After a brief moment of contemplation, Min Woo-seong agreed.
“I’ll look into it.”
Anyway, he wouldn’t be making it himself.
He could just pass it off to the National Security Bureau.
He had developed a bad habit of shifting all the troublesome tasks to the National Security Bureau.
A few days later, Min Woo-seong went on an inspection after hearing reports about a local restaurant near the Ha Nam faction area—known for bad food and high prices. He was reporting to the National Security Bureau, seeing no difference between the rumors and the owners' behavior.
“Please wipe out all the nearby businesses. Large guilds and associations are wary of the Ha Nam faction, so it would be easy to dump negative news as a countermeasure.”
The National Security Bureau’s real estate strategy involved getting rid of bad restaurants and then buying up buildings whose owners were suffering from a decline in revenue.
This was part of a larger plan, potentially worth billions, carried out behind the scenes.
“Hey, what are you doing?!”
Lee So-hye stormed in angrily, reaching for Min Woo-seong’s collar.
‘From now on, I’ll skip lunch.’
Min Woo-seong: I’ve found a new editor and thumbnail artist. They’re all A-level professionals in the industry. The first edited video has come out, please review it.
It had been a few days since he made the request when the message and video materials were sent to his screen phone.
‘Min Woo-seong, this guy really works fast.’
At this rate, his drive was on par with even Seong Gyeong-seok.
He couldn’t understand why he didn’t outright deny the parachute label people had given him.
“So-hye, what are you watching?”
“Silent Swordsman’s V-Tube editing video.”
Since the incident where she was hired as the manager’s manager,
Jo Ah-young had become a bit closer and peeked over Lee So-hye’s shoulder to watch the video.
Even though she felt the heat from the sweat of their training, she didn’t mind watching the screen and expanding it for her.
‘She must be curious.’
Jo Ah-young was the first to become close with Ha Eung Eung.
They were rumored to get along like sisters when they were off-duty.
She had spent most of her time focused on training, without showing much interest in others.

The video titles, which were once more aggressive, had become subtler.
Although less clickbait, the actual editing points had become much more refined.
“Wow! This is really well done. Is there more?”
“The Whip Simulator will be up soon too.”
The editing, with perfect timing for the music and action, looked great even to Lee So-hye.
‘Will I be in the Whip Simulator edit too?’
It was an obvious thought.
Since she had always appeared in the collaborations, she would definitely be in it.
“Are you excited, Noona? You’ve done Whip Simulator collaborations too.”
“That was so long ago, what’s the big deal?”
Though she said that, when the Whip Simulator video was uploaded, it was clear that it bothered her not seeing views as high as the Half-Beast Saga.
“Whip Simulator is a great game too.”
“...Are you serious?”
“What? What’s wrong with Whip Simulator?”
Min Woo-seong didn’t seem to agree,
but the Whip Simulator, despite not getting millions of views like the Half-Beast saga, consistently got hundreds of thousands of views—enough to call it a big hit.
‘If this goes on, will even that insane gameplay show up in the edit?’
The final task from the Silent Swordsman mission, where he was defeated in one attempt by Lee So-hye, left viewers satisfied with the outcome.
“Hey, Noona! The final Whip Simulator edit is out!”
After three months of steady uploads, the final episode of the Whip Simulator was finally released.
