Chapter 357
Arriving at the UD Group’s necromancy research facility, which was on the outskirts of Frankfurt, Se-Hoon subtly glanced around at the bustling scene. Apart from ordinary employees, undead beings were also busily moving about, sparking a certain thought.
Did they base Gehenna on this place?
Like Gehenna, the research facility was a space where humans and undead coexisted naturally. He had seen it a few times now, having occasionally visited Gehenna, but the atmosphere still gave off an otherworldly feeling each time he saw it anew.
It always feels like I’m standing on the boundary between the living and the dead.
If he were to exaggerate, it was almost as if he were on the brink of death. Because of that, it was no wonder some people found such an environment unsettling, but all Se-Hoon felt was intrigue. Perhaps it was because he was used to Wurgen, and the environment was just one of the many manifestations of Wurgen’s synesthetic mindscape.
Turning deceased employees into undead and continuing to employ them... are both things Wurgen decided on himself.
If Wurgen were to exploit undead employees by forcing them to work away from eyes in the basement without pay, no one except the other Perfect Ones would be empowered to criticize or stop him. And the undead themselves couldn’t defy Wurgen’s commands once they stepped foot in the Netherworld.
Wurgen was poised to take advantage of the undead extremely easily if he wanted to. Yet... he never did.
People think he’s just being cautious because of the other Perfect Ones... but I know that’s not the case.
Wurgen had no reason to concern himself with others, and in the first place, the other Perfect Ones didn’t care about undead beings enough to intervene.
That meant Wurgen’s attitude of treating undead as individuals was entirely a product of his values—which Se-Hoon knew better than anyone else.
