The man escaped from the door and went straight to his hideout without looking back.

‘This bastard… tricked me!’

Obviously, I said that there would be no one inside the door, but that was completely wrong.

When we arrived at the hideout, a colleague asked with a puzzled expression.

“What, are you here already? Did you finish well?”

“Well, well, okay.”

The colleague looked at the man with a suspicious expression in response to the slightly dazed answer, but he did not ask further.

The man went straight back to his room and called somewhere.

“hello?”

“…Hey! It’s different.”

“yes? the words are different What do you mean?”

“Meet and talk. Where are you now?”

“…I will go.”

I must have already told Seong-hyeon whose request it was, and the man who wasn’t particularly concerned about the follow-up summoned Tae-hyun and waited with a displeased expression on his face.

As if he was nearby, Taehyun arrived at the man’s place after about 10 minutes.

“What happened? Did you fail?”

“failure? Hey, didn’t I say there would be no escorts at the door?”

“…but yes.”

Taehyung recalled his memories again.

It wasn’t just that he knew that Seonghyeon didn’t have an escort by sense.

His older brother was working for the association, and it was a story he had heard directly from him.

It was a story I heard directly from within the association, but there was no way it could be a lie.

“dog sound! There was even an escort inside the door!”

“…does that matter?”

“What?”

Taehyung looked at the man with a rather displeased expression and said.

“If you see anything wrong with what the client is saying, do you just give up? Haha… in terms of level…”

“What, what?”

It wasn’t wrong, so the man couldn’t say anything.

“The commission has paid off. You must have been very surprised, so why not make some medicine or drink it?”

“…you, be careful. Kim Seong-hyun had a great talent by his side. To the point where I can’t even feel a footstep.”

“That’s good information. Are you done talking?”

“…okay.”

Taehyung got up from his seat and sighed.

“Hey, I’m not going to say that I failed so bluntly. I’ll have to order it somewhere else.”

“…”

The man just looked at Taehyung’s back as he left with his fists clenched.

Taehyung came out of the building and took out a cigarette with an irritated expression on his face.

“Whoa… should I make another request somewhere else?”

By the way, this place was the best place, but Taehyun was a bit complicated to come out with such a result.

Taehyung came out of the building and took out a cigarette with an irritated expression on his face.

“Whoa… should I make another request somewhere else?”

By the way, this place was the best place, but Taehyun was a bit complicated to come out with such a result.

“Your brother wouldn’t have known…”

Since he was the older brother of Taehyun, who had a place in the association, there was no way he could have misunderstood this much.

“I’ll have to give you a call after work.”

Since hyung still had some time left before he left work, Taehyung even smoked a cigarette and went back to the academy.

A little while after Taehyun left the place, a man in a black suit entered the place where Taehyun had come out.

“request?”

“okay.”

At first glance, the man seemed to have a lot of things, so he forgot about his failure today and welcomed the customer.

“I know that today’s quest failed, can I trust you?”

“Well, that was an unexpected variable…”

“Anyway, you’re the one who failed, aren’t you? A hunter with that healing power?”

Looking at what he said, it seemed that he was a client related to that crazy hunter, so the man nodded his head and answered confidently.

“Yeah, maybe I’m the only one who knows him well?”

“is it? Well done.”

“So what kind of request…”

The man, who was full of laughter at the thought of receiving the money, immediately hardened his face at the clogged breath.

Suddenly, her body floats into the air, and all she can do is stagger her feet in the air.

“Cuckoo…”

The man left the room only when he could not even hear the moan that broke out.

——————————————–

Time passed quickly until the day of the competition to determine the class representative.

In the meantime, Seong-hyeon and In-hwan managed to get along a little bit, and although it was a short time, In-hwan’s proficiency rose quickly, and he was able to use his abilities much more freely than at the beginning.

On the day of the competition to select the grade representatives of the academy, all students were allowed to observe the competition without attending classes.

“…”

An awkward atmosphere was flowing through Sunghyun’s team, considering that they were on the same team.

“If you use healing on me, I will kill you first.”

Seonghyeon looked at Inhwan without answering Sangyeon’s words and said.

“Just do what you practice.”

“Yeah, at least there won’t be any loss of ability.”

As if he was quite offended by the fact that he was ignoring himself, Sang-yeon wrinkled her brow a lot, approached Seong-hyeon, and put her finger on her chest and said.

“Did you understand?”

“okay. Be sure to do that.”

After hearing Seong-hyeon’s answer, Sang-yeon, who seemed satisfied with her expression, sat a little farther away and waited for the battle to begin.

Shortly thereafter, one of the faculty members came in and began to briefly explain the class competition.

“Let me explain the rules. The rules have changed a bit since this match. The three of you, choose a captain right now.”

The three of them exchanged glances at the word captain.

“You can tell me before the battle starts in a little while.”

The professor put the cell phone on the table, and the screen of the cell phone left a blank space for the name of the person to be selected as today’s captain.

“Then I will explain the rest of the rules.”

The professor stared at Goo Goo-yeon as if they were gathering, and Goo Koo-yeon reluctantly took a seat next to Seong-hyeon and In-hwan.

“…the rules are simple. The battle begins, and the first to defeat the captain wins.”

In-hwan asked carefully whether the word “church” was a little off-putting.

“If you treat it…”

“Oh, you have chosen the word too aggressively. sorry. If you make the opposing team leader out of combat first, you win.”

It was a very simple rule.

“Of course, the battle begins without knowing who is the captain of each other. It is important to know the opponent’s captain and to neutralize the captain first.”

The rules themselves were simple.

The one who finds the opponent’s captain and neutralizes it first wins.

“Then I wish you good luck. Professor Hwang Ki-hyuk’s class had never had a grade representative come out… so I’m looking forward to it and worrying about it.”

The professor left his words and stood up.

“…”

There was only silence in the room.

If it were a different team, they would have already been discussing who should be the captain, but there was no such unity in Sunghyun’s team.

“Well then, who is the captain…”

Luckily, Goo Goo-yeon and In-hwan, who wasn’t very friendly, spoke up.

“Anyone do it. Wouldn’t it be a simple matter if we neutralize all representatives of the opposing party?”

“…”

The thought that Goo Koo-yeon was not a planned person than I thought came into Seong-hyeon and In-hwan’s heads at the same time.

“Then… Sang-yeon is you?”

“Do whatever you want…what? Are you crazy?”

In-hwan chuckled at Sang-yeon’s answer and continued his conversation.

“Anyone want to do it?”

“Don’t play around. How important is this fight now?”

“If it’s that important…”

In-hwan, who was about to say something more, sighed and looked at Seong-hyeon.

“how will we do it? No matter how much I think about it, I think you and I should be the captains.”

“Yeah, Goo Goo-yeon… doesn’t seem to want to discuss it.”

Goo Goo-yeon quickly returned to her seat.

“Then the president…”

In-hwan looked at Seong-hyeon and asked for an opinion, and Seong-hyun answered immediately.

“It’s obvious. It has already been decided.”

Seong-hyun wrote his name on his cell phone and submitted it to the professor.

“…Now the fight will begin. Go inside.”

As I went inside following the guidance of the professor, I heard a voice announcing the start of the confrontation.

“From now on, we will start the academy class representative competition.”

The place where the confrontation began was the combat training room inside the academy.

It was a different place than a simple training room, but it was a place where you could create a virtual space to fight.

“Today’s match is being sent to each class on the screen, so if you commit any cheating, you will be eliminated immediately.”

There was no cheating in the anti-representative competition except the use of equipment.

“…So who is the captain?”

Goo Goo-yeon coughed and asked, and In-hwan answered instead of Seong-hyun.

“Well, maybe it’s better that you don’t know?”

“What? Ha…it’s going to be like that. I do it my own way.”

“yes? When didn’t you?”

“…”

Goo Goo-yeon kept her mouth shut as if there was no need to talk anymore.

The opponents of the class representatives were not determined in advance.

In other words, in the confrontation that will begin soon, who the opponent is can only be known by meeting in person.

“Don’t hold your ankles.”

Goo Goo-yeon looked at Seong-hyeon and In-hwan and spoke, and soon the interior landscape began to change.

“It’s completely empty.”

Inhwan was dissatisfied with the unfolding scenery.

Due to the nature of his abilities, in such a vast space without any cover, he could easily be exposed to those with high speed.

“In front, I see.”

There was a representative of the opposing class at a distance of about 50m.

“Ha… this is not good.”

“why?”

Inhwan hardened his expression when he saw the opponent.

It’s like you already know who you are.

“The other class leader is the professor who just guided us. And they… are kids with special ability in person-to-person combat.”

“Ability to specialize in person-to-person warfare?”

“Yeah, don’t you know that the academy is just a gathering of hunters who deal with beasts?”

As Inhwan said, the academy simply considers excellence in talent as the criterion for admission.

The talent of that ability could be excellent in dealing with beasts, or it could be excellent in dealing with people.

“So, what are their abilities?”

“I don’t know the details, but the girl on the far right gives the team member physical strength enhancement. It takes a little bit of time to cast, but once you cast it, it’s quite a headache.”

“rest of it?”

“The one on the left specializes in close combat. Our Goo Goo-yeon will take care of that. The problem is in the middle. It’s a sniper.”

Guo Guo-yeon asked if he was listening to the story with a puzzled voice.

“What? sniping? You don’t have a gun?”

“If you need a gun to shoot, what kind of ability is that? Just a sniper.”

“…”

“Fortunately, the proficiency level is still low, so the accuracy rate itself is on the low side.”

“Then you can’t shoot at me, can you? He must be playing close combat with his team.”

“Do you know why that ability is only for face-to-face combat? Even if the allies are hit, there is no damage.”

“…”

Listening to the explanation, it was definitely only the ones that maximized their abilities in person-to-person combat.

“But we are fine.”

Inhwan looked at Sunghyun with a confident face and said.

“There’s a healer with the ability to deceive both in subjugation of beasts and in face-to-face battles, right?”

“Hey, what’s the use of an ability that can’t be used in the front row…”

Before Goo Goo finished speaking, the floor next to him was struck by something and shattered.

“…it goes through a few greetings.”

“Koo Sang-yeon, you won’t cooperate with us, but you also want to be the representative of the school year.”

“…therefore. Do you want me to listen to you?”

“No, it’s the other way around. do it yourself. at your will.”

“Hey, the first thing I like is the word.”

Goo Goo-yeon ran forward as soon as the conversation was over.

“…there is no real solution. Sung Hyun-ah. But who is the captain?”

“Oh, boss? I’m running out of there, Captain.”

“…What?”

At Seonghyeon’s words, Inhwan looked at Seonghyeon and Goo Gooyeon’s back in turn.

“…ha, you weren’t normal either.”
