Chapter 404: Side Story 18 – Drunken Shit talk (The Devil has descended) (1)

Translator: miraclerifle

“That’s right. The reason I applied for TKBM’s Unsanctioned Excavation Team was…”

It was prior to the regression.

June’s hands were shaking while looking at the interviewers in front of him.

June, or Chaos, had passed through all of the necessary tests for the tomb raiding team but the hiring was canceled for being a woman. June had changed his gender, name, and everything to reapply and barely managed to get an interview, but…

‘Motherfucking human bastards.’

June felt like forgetting about all of it right now.

The reason was simple.

It was because of these damn interviewers.

“Hmm, your TOEIC score isn’t bad but you don’t have any study abroad experience?”

“You don’t have any of that extremely common volunteering experience either. I would say this is more of a lack of sincerity than a lack of effort.”

“You have a gap of six months. What did you do during that time?”

“What do your parents do? What is your family income level?”

“And your address seems like it is a semi-basement apartment? Your hometown is also an under-developed area.”

‘These shitty human bastards. Are they interviewing for new employees or are they conducting the fucking census?!’

“You haven’t had any work experience either. It seems as if you’re lacking in your presentation…”

‘Damn it! You bastards are hiring rookies right now! Like hell we’d have any work experience!’

This Supreme Leader of the artifacts was about to explode due to the mental breakdown.

This was already the fifth interview. The company had been in a rush to select people last time so it hadn’t been this bad.

‘Please introduce yourself.’

‘Yes sir!’

‘Are you able to use artifacts like this during excavations?’

‘Yes sir, I can.’

‘Please demonstrate.’

‘Yes sir!’

That was about all that June had to deal with the first time. Even that had made June feel as if getting a job was extremely difficult for humans, but he had been mistaken.

A true job search was a greater hell than he ever imagined!

[TKBM Korean Branch Recruitment]

He managed to apply for the company but then got rejected in the application process for not having a strong academic background! He barely passed the college exam to satisfy the academic background, and then he got rejected for lacking specs!

He filled those so-called specs with things he thought would be necessary for excavating artifacts, but he received rejection after rejection! Rejection! Another rejection!

As an artifact, June couldn’t help but have a mental breakdown.

‘Why?! This should be enough!’

He found out the reason for his rejections after entering a job seeker cafe.

[Of course, you don’t have a TOEIC score… Even mid-sized companies ask for your TOEIC score. It is mandatory for a company like TKBM -.- ]

[A score of 900 is the minimum. I plan on getting at least a 950 to be safe.]

[Excavation related certificates? Language or computer-related certificates are more important.]

[It’s probably good to have OA certification and accounting certifications as well.] [1]

[I got the 8-item certification set as a base and also got my barista license recently. I heard that the board members and directors would like that.]

[The most important part is the personal statement. Would you like someone I know to read it over? He works there and does consulting from time to time.]

[ OMG, can he look over mine too? [email protected]]

[OMG, excuse me, may I have his contact number as well? My Gatalk ID is khy80.]

[Hello, I am an old job seeker who is 35 years old. This is really my last chance ?? [email protected] please.]

[Have a 26 year old babe in your arms. 010-7878-xxxx]

[I am an athletic 28 year old male. I contacted you.]

[This comment has been deleted.]

[Is it still possible to participate? My email is [email protected]]

[[email protected]]

[Someone I know received this guy’s consulting and successfully got hired by TKBM.]

‘The human working world is scary! It’s very scary!’

June had been shaking while experiencing this ‘new world.’

He studied all of these things and built up his specs and even received the consultation(?) to finish his personal statement!

Of course, the personal statement consultation was just a scam for his money!

‘That human bastard named Yoo Jaeha, I’ll get you back for this!’

He barely made it to the interview phase after all that, yet they were asking only stupid questions!

“Lady number 3, do you have a boyfriend?”

“U, umm.”

“What will you do if your supervisor calls you early in the morning? Will you show up? Will you come even if your boyfriend is sleeping next to you?”

It was at that moment.

Tap tap.

One of the other interviewers tapped on the table with his pen as if he was annoyed.

“Team leader Yoon Shi Woo, can you please stop asking useless questions? Miss Seo Yejin, that question was a joke so please just ignore it.”

Yoon Shi Woo did not budge after Ju-Heon’s warning and continued speaking.

“I’m not joking. Miss Seo Yejin, you are 26 years old right? How much experience do you have?”

“E, excuse me?”

“How many men have you slept with until now?”

“……?!”

“Ah, don’t get the wrong idea. I am just asking to consider all things in the hiring process.”

Yoon Shi Woo snickered, as if he was messing with applicants he knew wouldn’t get the job.

“So, your response?”

“U, umm, I…haven’t…”

“Ohhh, really? At your age? Hahaha, then what about you, Mr. June, do you have a girlfriend? Is she pretty?”

June frowned.

“I’m not sure what that has to do with excavating at all, sir.”

Yoon Shi Woo had an annoyed smile on his face.

“Ah, this guy is lacking in the specs and in the head. He has no tact.”

“E, excuse me?”

“And Mr. June, I see that you wrote 3,000 as your salary request? All these rookies have no skills but want to be paid well. We are going to teach you so many things that you should be willing to work for free.”

“…….”

“I’ll tell them to take great care of you if you get hired, Mr. June. Although…they’ll have to pay close attention to you as if you were mentally retarded since you have no talents and you are slow to comprehend things.”

As Ju-Heon’s eyebrows twitched and he was about to say something…

June jumped up from his seat.

“Hey you!”

An angry June walked over to Yoon Shi Woo.

He then picked him up by the collar.

“Ugh! Hey!”

“Control yourself, you damn bastard!”

He should have noticed it from the moment they seemed to be conducting a census survey.

And what else did they say?

‘He said I’m a bit slow? Mentally retarded?!’

“Ack! W, what is up with this punk?!”

June was fed up with dealing with these human bastards to get hired.

‘There’s only so much of this I can take!’

“Whatever, screw it all!”

‘Forget confirming the Majesty candidate or whatever, let’s just go wild!’

Pow!

Yoon Shi Woo was sent flying after being hit by June.

Boom!

“Listen carefully! We are all your clients once we leave here! Do you really think it is okay to interview future clients like this?!”

“H, hold on!”

“Don’t look down on us job seekers!”

“Aaah!”

Yoon Shi Woo ended up being stomped by the angry artifact job seeker(?).

June ended up being dragged out by the employees and guards who entered into the interview room.

“Holy shit, what is going on? An interviewee who beat up an interviewer?”

“This is like headline news!”

“Holy shit! Call the police!”

“He deserved the beating. We all know that guy messes with the interviewees all the time. Unfortunately, that kid will never even make it to TKBM’s door from now on.”

However…

“No, no. Put him down as passed.”

“Excuse me?!”

They gasped while looking at Ju-Heon who was laughing while clutching his stomach.

“T, team leader Seo Ju-Heon, what do you mean…”

Ju-Heon fixed the mask on his face as he laughed. His face had swelled up because of an artifact’s risk so he had no choice but to wear it, but… [2]

“My team was supposed to get someone from this hiring process. I like him so send him to my team.”

“B, but Team leader Seo!”

“What is it? I have that much power. He looks feeble but he is strong and has some attitude. I like it a lot.”

“My goodness! The Chairman-nim might scold you later!”

In the end, that was how June ended up on Ju-Heon’s tomb raiding team.

Of course, Yoon Shi Woo always grumbled about how Ju-Heon hired a bastard like that.

Returning back to the present…

The team members dropped their jaws in shock after hearing the story.

“Man…you did all sorts of things…even though you are an artifact…”

“So touching, you little punk.”

“But pushover, you really did pull all sorts of scams. How the hell do you scam people with job consultations?!”

“Ahhhhhhhhh! What the hell did I do?! N, no, you’re right, I’m sorry! I just needed some pocket money at that time!”

Ilya asked at that moment.

“But what does that have to do with hating that Zhen Cai Yuan woman?”

“Everything.”

June started shaking while thinking about what happened right after he got hired.

Ju-Heon had said the following to him.

‘Man, I guess our department is really unpopular. We finally filled our whole team.’

‘Excuse me?’

‘How the hell do they not send a single person to our department? They keep saying nobody is interested. Especially women. Zero women interested. I guess our department is unpopular with the ladies.’

‘Excuse me? What are you talking about?’

‘What do you mean?’

‘Haven’t you canceled someone’s hiring because they are a woman? I thought no women were allowed…’

‘What kind of bullshit is that? How would Seol-A and Chloe be here if that was the case?’

‘?!’

The team members looked toward June with disbelief.

“T, then the person who rejected you was…”

“That’s right, it was Zhen Cai Yuan. I wouldn’t have had to deal with all of those struggles if it wasn’t for that woman…!”

“Why the hell would that woman do that?”

Why would she do that?

Chloe tried to think about that time.

Ju-Heon had seen June’s photo and said the following.

‘Ah, she’s my type so it would be bad if she joins our team.’

‘She’s your type?’

‘That was why I didn’t want to accept Seol-A as a team member at first too…ah, whatever. I’m sure it won’t matter.’

Ju-Heon had said to hire the female June, but what happened after that?

Zhen Cai Yuan, who had overheard Ju-Heon’s comment, pulled some strings to get June rejected. She used her connection with Chairman Kwon to get her way.

Jaeha was getting the chills.

Why?

“Do you think that the reason he said June was his type… Was it because June is an artifact?”

“?!”

“Artifacts are the Captain-nim’s type!”

The entire team gasped.

“D, did that guy’s instincts tell him that you were an artifact since back then?”

“Maybe Zhen Cai Yuan intervened because, as one of the Four Emperors, her instincts were telling her that June was the Cradle.”

“No, I’m sure that woman just saw a pretty girl’s face and intervened.”

Well, it didn’t matter.

“Anyway, you hated humans. Why did you stay with the team for so many years if you were planning on leaving soon?”

“Why else? I got dragged in.”

Ilya sighed in response.

“You were the same.”

“Excuse me?”

“Fuck, I would still be working at the Vatican if it wasn’t for that damn Captain bastard…”

“What do you mea…”

Ilya drank a shot instead of responding.

“This is bad! Bishop-nim!”

“That Korean guy is in the museum again!”

A long time ago during one Italian winter.

This was even before Ju-Heon joined TKBM. This is a story before he even met Mammon.

In this story, Ju-Heon was still not an artifact user.

“Find him! Find that Asian guy!”

“That bastard is here again!”

“Ah, that damn Korean guy!”

The priests of the Vatican had their eyes wide open as they looked for someone.

“Fuck, we’ve seen a bunch of bastards like this but this Korean is truly persistent. Does he want to be an artifact user that badly?”

“Well, it makes sense. Pandora appearing made it impossible for personal possession of artifacts.”

“People can’t even touch artifacts without Pandora’s permission now.”

However, the Vatican was a bit different. The Vatican priests had received permission from Pandora to use artifacts and showed these artifacts in an artifact museum.

“That is why people who can’t get Pandora’s permission keep trying to steal our artifacts on display.”

“They’ll be able to go into tombs if they get their hands on an artifact.”

“Especially this SS-Grade artifact!”

They were grinding their teeth while looking at a broken glass case.

“Fuck, how the hell did that son of a bitch break this thing? He doesn’t even have any artifacts!”

“More importantly, why haven’t they caught the bastard yet?”

The priests were pulling at their hair saying that artifact users like them were looking like fools against this commoner.

Around that same time…

“Mr. Ju-Heon, Mr. Ju-Heon. This way! Over here!”

Ju-Heon lifted his head from the shrubs after hearing the nuns calling for him.

“Hurry up and escape this way!”

“Thank you!”

This young Ju-Heon in his early twenties was about to exit the Vatican thanks to the help of the nuns he had seduced.

However…

“You even corrupted the nuns now, you shitty bastard!”

“Tsk!”

He got caught by the priests and couldn’t escape. Ilya was one of those priests.

“Come over here while we are asking nicely, Korean guy.”

Ilya, who was a talented artifact user, activated a Christian artifact.

Ju-Heon became anxious after feeling the power of that artifact.

“Hey! Isn’t that a bit much against a tourist?!”

Ju-Heon urgently started running, but Ilya just scoffed.

“A tourist, my ass! This thieving bastard sure knows how to talk!”

But at that moment…

“!”

Ilya couldn’t help but be shocked.
