Regress and Eat

Tighten, tighten!

Immediately after breaking up with her, I heard a tone from the handset on her wrist.

Automatically search for and show outgoing numbers It was a line used by the Constitution Department.

He must be the officer who led us.

‘Looks like you've reached your superiors. ’

After finalizing the ratings, the officer suggested that we stop by the center for a while.

Upon receiving the SS rating, the Constitution database seems to have been updated and the entire department seems to be in a commotion.

All he wanted was to stop by and have a little chat with the top guys, but I didn't want to.

After failing to persuade him, he returned to the center alone, and he is under heavy reprimand from his superiors who were expecting to come with me, of course.

“Jin-wook, aren't you answering your phone? ”

“It's okay.”

Just when the unmanned vehicle I called stopped in front of us.

“Come on, let's go. ”

After hiding Jaekyung Jae in a place no one knows, Kim secretary who was moving alone suddenly turned his eyes to the noisy terminal.

“Hmm? It's a guild number, right? ”

Apparently, he took the day off, but the phone call meant it was an emergency or someone was messing with him.

“The guild leader is talking shit again? ”

Seo Kyu-chul, who was in charge of Seo Jin-wook's security, tried to stir him up more than once a day, but it was inevitable that he was frowned.

“Since we run the guild like this in 2038, Hunters keep trying to leave. A company that calls and harasses you on vacation? · ·"

He stops grumbling and answers the phone.

“Yes, Byung-ho Kim · · ·. ”

“Hey! Secretary Kim! Did you get that? ”

When I heard his voice, it was a senior with a face.

“Hey, boss? I'm on vacation today. ”

The user tries to defend itself, but the target doesn't even pretend to hear it.

“Seo Jin-wook! Do you understand?”

Suddenly, Kim's secretary in Seo Jin-wook's name made me tense my back muscles without knowing it.

I knew you were going to see the promotion screening today.

Did it happen there? Or did Seo Gyu-cheol run in front of him as soon as he heard the news?

Be careful with your voice and ask again to avoid embarrassing feelings.

“What are you, the chief? ”

“When did the Team Leader and the Team Leader leave? · · · Anyway, did you really not know? ”

“If you say it that way, the story keeps spinning. ”

“Watch the news, asshole! ”

Kim stopped the car for a while. Operate the handset to float the video while maintaining the call line. It was a news channel.

Reporter's voice flows out.

· · · Information is being conveyed consistently by a number of stakeholders from the Hunter Management Department. A spokesman for the Constitution said he would make it official today. This atmosphere is almost confirmed by the fact that it is not immediately denied, unlike when similar rumors have been circulated. I'll say it again. Today, information is spreading rapidly among the hunters that Korea's first SS Class Awakening has occurred in routine measurements at the Hunter Center in Seoul. The Awakening is known as Seomo, the eldest son of the Hunter Guild ‘Heavenly Dragon’ in a domestic oyster · · ·. ’

Kim's secretary hurriedly takes a deep breath.

“Huff!”

Rub your eyes.

The subtitles haven't changed.

‘The birth of Korea's first SSHunter? I am Seolmo, the eldest son of the Celestial Dragon Guild. ’

“The Celestial Dragon's thermo. ”

It was meaningless.

Personal information will be published in one search.

“No, even so · · · ·. ”

I knew it was not a normal level of growth.

I don't know what method I used, but I not only won the fight against Park Chang-hee of Rank A, but also showed me the amazing ability to experience it for the first time.

But this was unexpected.

The SS class!

“The guild leader must have received the information in advance through a line planted on the Constitution Department. They're all blocking it, but he's already headed to the center. There are reporters everywhere right now! ”

“Ahh · · ·. ”

That was definitely the problem.

Seo Kyu-chul's words these days were not acceptable in front of the media.

‘No.’

Kim immediately changed his mind.

Did it go well? ’

He knew Seo Jin-wook's rough plan.

If so · · ·.

Kim smiled quietly.

‘It might be a blessing for the captain. ’

Seoul City Hunter Center.

In front of the Hunter administration building and the adjacent center, reporters had already gathered for coverage.

At this point in time when holding a large number of good hunters was soon connected to national power, the birth of a high-ranking hunter was always news that shook the country.

The grumbling comes out of the crowd without a place to set foot.

“No, you're not opening the press center. Why do you want me to wait outside? ”

“The lobby on the first floor is full of reporters already. I'm in a hurry to make room, so wait here. ”

“· · · What? That big place is full? ”

“Reporters from my country are all over the place. ”

At that time, a black vehicle arrived in a public parking lot used by the Center and the Constitution.

“Oh, there's the leader of the Celestial Dragon Guild! ”

“Seo Kyu-chul!”

Chariot!

The camera has blown the flash all together.

“I'm glad you waited outside! ”

Reporters hurriedly rushed toward Seo Kyu-chul and pushed the microphone in.

“Guild Master Seo Kyu-chul! What do you think of Seo Jin-wook, the eldest son, who won the SS rating this time · ·. ”

The face of the journalist who had won the struggle and asked the first question became stiffer.

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Seo Kyu-chul said nothing, and stared at the reporters who stood in front of him coldly.

No, that look was simply not good enough.

‘· · · · · · · What eyes! ’

Reporters were embarrassed. Seo Kyu-chul was usually known for his cool attitude, but at least he kept the media courtesy.

He was rumored to be obsessed with Korea's number one reputation because he knew the importance of the media. He was famous for summoning reporters and holding meetings even though the Celestial Dragon had made a trivial achievement. Extremely journalistic.

But · · ·.

‘This · · ·! ’

Most reporters who dealt with Hunter issues knew Seo Kyu-chul well.

It was completely different from my normal face.

A fierce gaze filled with hostility and hatred.

And the frenzy flowed out of his eyes.

Creepy!

The gathered reporters all felt the weight of the air crushing their lungs.

“Ugh · · ·! ”

Those who were not Awakened were overwhelmed by the momentum of Seogyu-chul just before the explosion.

The reporters pulled back without me even knowing it.

Seo Kyu-chul's fierce eyes stared at them were captured on the camera.

Live.

In the middle of modern Seoul, it is incredibly violent and sunny.

Everyone felt it.

Then, the oppressed voice knocks on their ears.

“· · · · · · · · You'd better get out of the way. ”

Reporters and cameras made their way as the sea split.

Meanwhile, Seo Gyu-cheol walked silently.

All of the footage was being broadcast live across the country on camera.

*

“No, Guild Master! What were you thinking out there?! ”

It was the deputy secretary of the Constitution who welcomed Seo Kyu-chul instead of the minister convened at the Chungwa University because of the bureaucracy meeting.

Instead of waiting for him to sit down, Seo Kyu-chul stood up and said with a frowning look.

“You can't do this to me. How much money have I spent on the Constitution? ”

“Hehe!”

Like the reporters, the vice minister felt a chill in front of the beast.

I was sweating unconsciously on my back.

He said with a close grip on the dying spirit.

“· · · · · · Please, I don't know what this is, but let's pick it up and say it. ”

At that moment, the vice minister felt the force that was pressing heavily against the room disappear.

He pulls out his handkerchief and wipes his sweat. I hesitated and sat down to face Seo Kyu-chul.

“We just went all over the country with live footage of our confrontation with the reporters. The expression on the guild leader's face made me speechless, but the Awakened Hunter was more like threatening a helpless civilian. No matter who sees it. We're trying so hard to make the Hunters look good, and if we put the press out like that... ”

Seo Kyu-chul didn't wait to hear it all.

“What took my son so long to get here? And, what, you just let a thief get away with it? ”

The vice minister had a lot to say. Putting the words together, the words leaked to the Celestial Dragon were at their best speed, and the SS class Hunter insisted that there was no excuse for the government officials to hold back.

“No, wait a minute. Guild Master, you're not doing this for Seo Jin-wook, are you? ”

It was hard for the deputy minister to imagine that Seo Gyu-cheol had this rude attitude over the line for just that reason.

“Is that what you've been up to lately? The rumor that the government is interested in the shares of the Celestial Dragon? I told you I had no choice. Purchase of shares in itself is a propulsion from other departments, and apparently reflects the duties of the superiors · ·. ”

“Don't change your words. I'm here to talk about Seo Jin-wook! ”

When the conductor heard that, he was beyond embarrassed, and now he felt helpless.

"No, so you're here to complain about your real son? ’

With that look on your face like you're gonna kill a few people right now?

Also · · · Why wasn't his son detained here?

Moreover, he doesn't seem interested in the government's equity acquisition plan, which he has to complain about very seriously.

The vice minister hesitated and said carefully.

“Hey · · · Guild Master? Don't get me wrong. · · I think you need expert counseling, not here. ”

That said, the vice minister thought about what he would instruct the employee after Seo Kyu-cheol returned to his mind.

'As soon as word got around that his son was cured of mental illness, this time his father went crazy. Oh, he's a wealthy man.'

The vice minister planned to instruct you to dig into the rumors that there was an abnormality in Seo Gyu-chul's statue.

More precisely, the hypothesis that his mind is playing.

The Internet was a mess.

The media, SNS and communities were all discussing the newly created SS-rated Hunter.

‘Yes, of course it's this much attention. ’

The more the center of conversation, the better.

Looking at trends like that · · ·.

“Hmm?"

I found an unexpected article.

The title is followed by a stimulating photo of Seo Kyu-cheol.

"Seo Kyu-chul, leader of the Cheongryong Guild, Hunter, looks threatening in front of the press corps. ’

‘Why did your son appear alone in the Constitution on the day he acquired the SS-rank? ’

‘A rumour between the rich rising above the surface. ’

Crazy human being.

He must have gone to the center looking for me.

And in the process, it fringed the media.

I kicked my tongue and turned off the hologram.

It's because communication came through the line.

Gatekeepers! ’

I got a call right away.

“Yes, this is Seo Jin-wook. ”

*

In South Korea, more than a thousand dungeons are held in a year, but the attacks are prioritized.

The dungeon is not infested with monsters, has different target difficulties, different steady states and different patterns of change.

Due to the nature of the monsters seen, the risk of braking is fatal, ranking is high, and when the word 'unstable’ is applied to the condition, the target is first targeted.

A push in priority is precisely a dungeon with the opposite propensity.

A dungeon that is particularly difficult to determine the conditions for an attack.

‘The maximum time a government assigns a gate to a guild is 1 year. Beyond that period, you'll have to do guild to guild beading again, and for a number of reasons, there is a gate where no one beads. ’

A dungeon that lacks mining potential due to its difficult target against ranks.

Dungeons that are ‘very stable’ or ‘stable’ at the same time, so there is no need to rush to form an attack team.

Gatekeepers' Guild volunteers to manage the door to such dungeons. '

For some of those dungeons, I was going to get my license as a person this time.

To train two men and mine the treasure buried there.

“Yes, thank you. Please take good care of it. ”

After finishing a call with the Guild Member of the Gate Keepers who was introduced by Izzie, I smiled satisfactorily.

“Good.”

I felt Hibiki and Nate's gaze staring at my face.

He heard the call and was curious.

Hibiki asked as he looked at me.

“Do we have a dungeon to train for? ”

nod your head.

“Yes, only three. ”

Nate's face is full of anticipation.

“Wow! Three? Since when?"

“Right now. ”

“Hey!”

Hibiki said.

“I heard that dungeons used for training usually take a day or two at a time. It will take a month to complete. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

I can't believe you just said that for a month.

I said with a smile.

“In one day, I will finish all three. ”

“· · · Yes? ”

The contract with the Gate Keepers Guild was made through electronic document exchange through handsets without face to face, and was effective at the same time as the deposit.

The destination currently entered in the vehicle navigation was the closest dungeon.

“For the next 24 hours, you won't have any room to sleep unless you're on the move, so go ahead and sleep in the car. ”

Training must be strict from the meadow.
