Kee eh!

Garam, who was crying sadly, trembled and drooped.

He fell to the ground as he struggled to support it with his tattered four legs.

thud!

Watching all this, I lightly clicked my tongue.

“This is a bit surprising.”

Hunting Garam, who did not enter the plus stage, was not difficult. But it was much tougher than I thought. Is it because he saw Hetzling dead? It would have been easier if I had kept it alive and used it.

After neutralizing Garam, I tried brainwashing like Nouri.

He was thinking of experimenting with the taming of the 8th level of harmful monsters.

At first, Garam resisted vigorously, but showed a weakening appearance due to repeated brainwashing.

The resistance subsided and they responded obediently to my messages. The moment I wondered if the timing would come, suddenly Garam’s eyes flashed and she ran into me with an explosion of life.

Whoa!

However, it was different from the Relic Level 8 monsters I had seen so far.

Although the power was less refined, the magnitude of the violent runaway power was similar to that of Nuri.

This phenomenon meant one thing.

“The demon is awakened.”

It was amazing. For a brief moment, Garam displayed a power comparable to that of a plus stage. Controlling gravity, presumed to be a gift, made me bewildered for a while.

But in the end, he fell down again. And I tried to resume brainwashing, but Garam’s behavior after that was surprising.

He stared at me with his eyes full of life, and then it faded and lost its light.

would take his own life.

Maybe he chose to take his own life rather than give in to brainwashing.

I didn’t know that a monster could have this level of intelligence.

I watched for a long time as the Adult Earth Dragon and Hetzling fell side by side.

“·················ogue.”

What I felt was that it would be nice to have one more here.

If there are parents, aren’t they usually two individuals?

My spouse and children also have different lives, so I think it would be good if the rest would appear and be caught side by side.

But it didn’t show up after a while.

Should I smell blood? There was nothing caught in my senses for that.

“Was it hermaphrodite?”

After waiting for another 10 minutes, he didn’t show up, so I contacted the Blue House.

* * *

Choi Jun-ho’s reconnaissance was in response to the Blue House’s preemptive response.

In the meantime, mankind has taken a defensive posture in hunting the remains of Level 8 monsters. The reason is that in order to explore the place where the monster’s reaction is felt, you inevitably have to bear the burden of dealing with other monsters.

What if a harmful level 8 monster appears while you are dealing with a monster?

Since the hunting team could be wiped out, I would rather build a stop line and wait for the remains of the 8th level monster to appear.

The Blue House was able to move like this because of Choi Jun-ho’s existence.

He was unofficially comparable to, perhaps even greater than, an early teen.

“This is an unusual reaction!”

An emergency report was sent to the Blue House, which was closely monitoring the Andong area.

The appearance of the remains of the 8th level monster is directly related to the existence of the nation.

No, the Awakened Powers no longer feel a great threat from level 8 monsters. It’s because I’ve been hunting steadily, accumulating data, and accumulating hunting know-how.

However, the plus stage that appeared next was an entity that could drive even a powerful country to destruction.

Monsters keep appearing, but it takes a long time to replenish the dead superman.

Chun Myung-guk ran to the president without even considering his face and gave an order to respond.

“A level 8 monster has appeared. It is from Andong, Gyeongsangbuk-do.”

“This is the place where Choi Jun-ho and Choin are.”

“Yes.”

It was an urgent situation, but the president’s expression was calm.

Do you believe in Choi Jun-ho, or do you believe in the history of Awakening in Korea?

Cheon Myeong-guk thought it was both. With Choi Jun-ho there, I thought that preemptive measures would be taken.

The president’s eyes turned to Chun Myung-guk.

“Is this a plus step?”

“It is unclear.”

“I wish it wasn’t a plus. It’s still hard to deal with. Choi Jun-ho and Cho-in will do well, but accidents happen at unexpected moments.”

In the meantime, a report came up, and Cheon Myeong-guk reported it with a bright expression.

“Not a plus.”

“Then it will be easier to hunt. All right, let’s move on.”

“I will contact the Holy Guild that I received a bid from the other day and come up with a countermeasure against the gallows.”

The name of the newly appeared Remains Level 8 monster was Garam.

Even if it’s not a plus stage, it’s never a good idea to just do it.

The President determined that the intended purpose had been achieved.

“First of all, contact Choi Jun-ho and Cho-in and order him to retreat.”

“Yes! Then right away…”

As Chun Myeong-guk was about to move, the secretary ran to him with an urgent expression.

“Chief!”

The eyes of the president and Cheon Myeong-guk were fixed on the secretary at the same time.

“Why but?”

“The reaction of the harmful level 8 monster has disappeared.”

“Live?”

“Yes! It is completely gone.”

What the hell happened? The eyes of the president and Cheon Myeong-guk met. Both had puzzled faces.

For a moment, the president said in a confident voice.

“What happened? There is a high probability that it will be related to Choi Jun-ho.”

“I think the same.”

“It is clear that the reaction has disappeared…”

It was more likely to be good news than bad news.

Because Junho Choi is at the scene.

Whether it be a human or a demon, I want to know who will be safe if it falls into that hand.

When many thoughts crossed, Cheon Myeong-guk’s smartphone rang loudly.

“Choi Jun-ho is a superman.”

“Receive.”

“It’s Cheon Myeong-guk.”

As soon as the president’s permission was granted, I immediately answered the phone. After a while, his expression hardened slightly, and he continued to nod his head in reply.

“What?”

Chun Myung-guk answered in a frustrated voice.

“You said you have hunted a level 8 monster, so I want you to send a team to take care of it.”

“As expected.”

“Yes.”

Was level 8 a monster that could be hunted so easily?

I was preparing with all my might to face a monster that could destroy even a nation. An individual caught it as easily as a little child’s wrist twist.

An individual can never transcend a country.

never be like that

This was the belief that Cheon Myeong-guk has maintained unchangingly.

But today, looking at Choi Jun-ho, I felt like I was being shattered.

The nation felt the threat of destruction and was simply destroying the object it had to prepare, as if twisting a child’s wrist.

“Uh-huh! Good, good!”

The president’s laughter did not stop as he did not know the feelings of Cheon Myeong-guk.

* * *

I went out on reconnaissance and caught a level 8 monster.

This actually happened.

I found an immature Earth Dragon, and told me to bring my parents as a joke, but I ended up getting my real parents too.

Literally, an incident created by overlapping coincidences and coincidences.

I was hoping for one more to get caught, but it seemed like a failure, hermaphrodite, or something that caught my eye and ran away.

As a result of the hunt, an income of close to one trillion was generated, but the content of the hunting of a monster named ‘Garam’ was completely different.

It was the work of Sejeong Jin.

“In order to stabilize the citizens who were terrified by the appearance of the plus stage monster, Choi Jun-ho made a decision to go to Andong, and it was wrapped up as a splendid achievement.”

“·················ogue.”

Should I say that the ability to pack even this is great or terrifying?

I just went to pay for my salary, and I saw it while I was there, so I caught it.

The skill of giving meaning was beyond imagination.

I thought that Jin Se-jeong was great, but I think Jin Se-jeong is not going to stop there.

“Sir, this is not a matter to end here. Did you say that Garam’s body will be on display again tomorrow? This time, you have to be there.”

“I didn’t participate last time.”

Any reason to participate?

If you go, you are older than me, but unidentified fans who call you oppa gather and take pictures.

I expressed the meaning of rejection, but Jin Se-jeong cut my words firmly.

“So this time, you have to participate.”

“I want to know why you should attend.”

“Yes, first of all, because the spotlight has to fall on Superin-nim. If left as it is, the government will take the greatest contribution to hunting Garam. But it was the Superman who hunted Garam. We need to let people know about it.”

Is it important to tell who hunted?

“Yes, it is important! That’s the most important part.”

He speaks as if he had read my heart.

Jin Se-jeong looked into my eyes and emphasized once again.

“In the case of Nuri, he generously conceded his service to the government. The current president is a common sense person, so he thanked Choin. But will we continue to be grateful? It’s human psychology to take it for granted the next time, even if you feel grateful once or twice. At some point, it will become a natural perception that the government only cares about hunting achievements and Choi Jun-ho only hunts. Why did Choin-nim do the hunting, but the government should take care of the results?”

“·················ogue.”

“There is a saying that borrows while standing and receives while lying down. I don’t want the government to look down on Choin’s achievements and give out Congo as if it were generous.”

“I agree.”

That makes sense.

However, what Jin Se-jeong misunderstood was that I was going to stay still.

If I make a mistake, I have no intention of staying still.

Did you treat me kindly? Well, since I’m a normal person, it’s not strange to see it like that.

Jin Se-jeong’s expression softened at my acceptance.

“Even if you make concessions later, you have to make sure you take care of yourself. I’m sorry if I went off topic.”

“No, it wasn’t presumptuous at all.”

“thank god. To be honest, I was very determined and talked about it while trembling.”

I think you’re just talking about something like that.

But there was nothing wrong with Jin Se-jeong.

I didn’t know either.

I just didn’t care because I thought it was annoying and uncomfortable. In Sejeong Jin’s words, when giving up, I knew what order I had to go through even if I gave up.

In a nutshell, doesn’t it mean to be saengsaeknae?

Rather, these advices are what I need.

“If there is something I need in the future, please advise.”

“Is that okay?”

“Yes.”

“Well then, yes. Okay. Actually, there are so many things I want to tell you.”

Seeing Jin Se-jeong smiling brightly, I missed it.

…it’s a mistake.

I was buried in Jin Se-jeong’s endless chatter.

It was a fun time though.

Especially if you haven’t experimented with new styling.

* * *

The square was crowded. Countless people burst into laughter as they watched the 30-meter-tall Earth Dragon Garam. Some were dead, but they couldn’t come close because they were afraid.

The monster was such a existence to the citizens.

An object of fear that destroys my home and threatens my life.

In order to dilute the fear of monsters, the government held a display when hunting monsters. It was a kind of demonstration and advertisement that death was nothing.

Lee Se-hee and Jeong Da-hyun appeared in Gwanghwamun Square, where the song was displayed.

The two exchanged conversations far away from Garam’s corpse.

“It’s new to see you like this.”

“yes.”

“Congratulations on reaching level 7.”

“thank you.”

“·················ogue.”

Silence fell between the two for a moment. Lee Se-hee saw Jung Da-hyun being awkward.

It’s like a good kid.

I’m worried about hurting my self-esteem.

It is true that my pride was hurt, but it was not enough to show it. Instead of expressing these feelings negatively, use them as nourishment for your own growth.

At times like this, I would rather console myself.

“I will work hard. Being behind doesn’t match my temper. And the superman might be me first, right? So, don’t be vigilant about going ahead.”

“yes.”

The awkward atmosphere subsided again.

Lee Se-hee didn’t say anything this time either.

The people were in a festive mood. Hunting Garam did not free Korea from the threat of monsters, but he was enjoying it. You may need a moment like this right now, when you can cheer even for a short time.

After a while, the president’s official car appeared a little further away from the square. Choi Jun-ho got off first, and the president got off with security.

There were no bodyguards around except Choi Jun-ho. I felt the president’s trust and confidence toward him.

and Choi Joon-ho.

Dressed in a black suit and full makeup, she looked like a Hallyu star in the role of a bodyguard.

Not surprisingly, cheers erupted from all directions.

But why is it that people who look over 40 are also called oppa?

‘Well, it’s a reliable image that can do anything.’

I watched Jin Se-jeong again, thinking that she was amazing.

“cool.”

“···yes. But whose idea is to decorate it like that?”

“There is someone famous in the industry called Sejeong Jin. why? Ahh.”

Lee Se-hee raised the corners of her lips.

Jeong Da-hyun trembled at her eyes as if she had found a toy.

“Why, why do you look like that?”

“Do you feel like you’re just being lost?”

“no it’s not.”

Jeong Da-hyun denied it, but Lee Se-hee’s smile was growing darker.

Resignation appeared on Jeong Da-hyun’s face, feeling that it had completely dried up. Se-hee Lee, who has caught the number once, bites and hangs until the opponent surrenders with a white flag.

“I know everything. When a star I only knew originally gains popularity with the public, I feel a great sense of loss. Our cute Dahyun, were you very anxious?”

“It’s not.”

“I know everything.”

As she patted her shoulder with a playful smile, Dahyun Jeong tapped her hand.

silly thing!

Se-hee Lee grabbed her hand and made a sound as if she was reading a Korean book.

“Ah, evil, le, bell 7 jeong, da, hyun, this guy, ram jab, is, da.”

“Sehee, you don’t act.”

“Yeah, I won’t.”

Jeong Da-hyun burst into laughter at the playful reply.

* * *

Time passed smoothly.

Occasionally, a reaction similar to that of hunting Garam occurred, so I went out to reconnaissance, but the monster never showed up.

Did you even weave each other?

The fact that this is by no means a good phenomenon is that it has a reaction and cannot be discovered, so it was viewed as a possibility that a harmful stage 8 monster would appear as a plus stage.

After two months of hunting Garam, all of the 8th-level monsters that appeared now had changed to the Plus stage.

Scholars have called this the upward leveling of all monsters. Like the Awakened, the level of the monsters is rising rapidly as the fierce competition for survival unfolds.

The government named the next plus stage ‘Soye’, and the Holy Guild received a bid for hunting rights.

Se-hee Lee was clamoring for this opportunity to show the power of the Holy Guild.

But something unexpected happened.

-brother! I’m mad now! My sister and the director collided!

I got a call from Yoon-hee in an urgent voice.

The team leader was Lee Se-hee, and the director was Baek Gun-seo.

What does it have to do with me when they collide? Gun-seo Paik stood in opposition to Se-hee Lee when she became chairman of Shinsung Group anyway, and there was nothing unusual about it.

– I’m involved with my brother.

“me?”

Yoon-hee said that it was an insider guild, but that it would all spread by tomorrow, and after urging me to know without telling anyone else, she started explaining the details.

In a nutshell, when Lee Se-hee put me as an observer, Baek’s pride was hurt.

From Lee Se-hee’s point of view, it was insurance to reduce the sacrifice, but from Baek Gun-seo’s point of view, it was seen as if he did not believe in him.

You’re hurting your self-esteem because of something else.

But that’s not the only way to think about it. There are also people who strictly manage the hunting know-how of the Holy Guild and say that it is Lee Se-hee’s mistake.

why? Is the holy guild hunting method that special?

Anyway, I don’t even want to set up a hunting team, so I’ll just throw it away.

“okay. I’ll take care of the rest.”

– You’re not trying to overturn it, are you?

“Do you think I will?”

-Uh, I think there’s a 99% chance it will.

. . . like a ghost. How did you know you were thinking that way?

“is not it.”

– Don’t make people around you uncomfortable. This is my job.

“OK.”

After hanging up on the phone, I summarized the previous situation in my head.

It is not unusual for opinions to differ within the guild.

Baek Gun-seo pretends to care about Lee Se-hee, but turns away at the decisive moment, and it actually happened in the future.

Perhaps it was not possible to settle the commotion, the next day, the media began chewing, chewing, tasting, and enjoying the <Sacred Guild Discord>.

Two days later, key executives of the Holy Guild, Lee Se-hee, and Baek Gun-seo participated in the Soye Hunting Meeting.

At first glance, there was a cold atmosphere between the two. In the meantime, Se-hee Lee secretly glanced at me sideways.

It’s got to do with me. Because my name appeared in the press.

Or did he think that I would buy and hit him like Yoon Hee?

I thought it was not easy to trust people.

So I gave up the thought of overturning it and approached Baek Gun-seo and kindly asked.

“What are you complaining about?”
