Just one S Rank awakener could change the world.
Not to mention an L-Rank, which was even higher than that.
“One of our S Rank hunter is already active overseas. But they are the exception. He didn’t leave Korea completely, and he promised that he would put priority here if there was an emergency.”
“What if I do that too?”
“You’re in a different situation. There are many S-ranks, but you are one. You are free to act as you please. We don’t dare to disturb you, but you must belong to Korea.”
“Really? If I refuse and run out, can you stop me?”
Kang Sejun’s eyes shone dangerously.
Kang Hanseo and Do Junyoung’s faces hardened, while Yoo Sueun frowned as if she was annoyed.
However, Song Hanna and Jueun’s facial expressions didn’t change despite the subtle threats.
“We can’t. If we all gathered together we would be able to hold onto your crotch, but we’ll lose face.”
While saying so, Song Hanna laughed as if she was having fun.
“You don’t want to go out anyways, do you?”
Kang Sejun was the one who frowned this time.
“I hate you. It’s like you’re facing hundreds of slick people. A tiger. No, It would be better to call it a snake.”
“You know me very well. That’s weird. I’ve never seen you before, where did you see me?”
“Well, who knows maybe we met in a dream.”
Song Hana stroked her chin. Her eyes agonized for a moment, but she quickly brushed it off.
Well, there were many ways to find out.
“Are you going to join the guild? Or create one?
“I will act as an individual. I’m not interested in dungeons. However, if you ask me for a raid or collaboration, I can consider it.”
The two guild leaders made strange faces at the unexpected remark.
Every guild focused on attacking dungeons.
The items and magic stones that came out of that place were the best way to make money in this era.
And yet this superpower wasn’t interested in it.
Jueun, who had been thinking quietly, suddenly hardened his face at the thought that came to mind.
“Are you thinking of a labyrinth dungeon?”
A Labyrinth dungeon
Everyone’s face, except Song Hanna, froze at the word that scared me.
There were four types of dungeons in total.
Normal dungeons generated the most, the dungeon break where monsters could escape from the gate, the crack dungeons where the space itself became a dungeon, and the labyrinth dungeon, which was still unknown.
Unlike other dungeons that were randomly created all over the world, there was only one labyrinth dungeon in the world.
The only dungeon called the living hell that existed on the ground and was a place where the danger couldn’t be expressed in numbers.
Was Kang Sejun aiming for that place?
“Why such a place…….”
“If we fail to attack the labyrinth dungeon, the whole world will be over. Literally, it’s all over.”
A clear anger appeared in Kang Sejun’s face.
Kang Sejun was so angry that a red haze rose from his clenched fists.
They couldn’t understand English. Why was Kang Sejun so angry when the labyrinth dungeon clearly posed such a danger?
Like someone who had really experienced the destruction of the world.
“That’s strange. As far as I know, there is only one Korean who has participated in the Labyrinth Dungeon attack, and it’s not you. You sound like you’ve done it before.”
Kang Sejun’s eyes trembled for an instant at Song Hanna’s sharp question.
“You’ve been there, haven’t you? That’s a secret, too.”
“Is that a place where you can sneak in?”
“But why is your reaction like that? Like someone who’s been there.”
“I’ll just say it’s the effect of my contractual nature and skills.”
Kang Sejun, who said such a thing, kept his mouth shut as if he had no intention of commenting further.
“Our L Rank has lotsof secrets.”
Yoo Sueun was openly sarcastic, but he did not even raise an eyebrow.
“……Huh?”
At that time, Kang Hanseo, who had a strangled face the whole time as if he was very burdened by the place, shouted.
Jueun looked at him wonderfully.
“What’s going on?”
“Oh, that’s it. I think my eyes are weird right now. What? Was it poisoned by a harpoon snake?
“There is no such thing. I already made sure you are in good shape.”
Healer Yoo Sueun, who was responsible for the safety of the raid team, said clearly that that wasn’t the case, Kang Hanseo’s face became more vague.
“Then, what the hell is this?”
“Why? What is it?”
“Uh, there are a total of 11 S-ranks, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Although Kang Sejun is an L-rank, because he is higher than us a notification came up saying he entered the S-Rank community right?.”
“And?”
“Since Kang Sejun came in, it should be 12 people, but it says that there are 13 people in total right now..….”
Silence fell in the president’s office. People who had been idle hurriedly opened the community.
And everyone saw clearly.
【’Kang Sejun’ has entered.】
【Korea’s community dedicated to S ranks (13 people in total)】
13.
A very ominous number written on it.
As if someone saw a ghost, a chill passed through the president’s office.
“……Since when?”
Yoo Sueun murmured blankly. Even though she, alongside Kang Hanseo and Sunset’s guild leader Eun Injae, had been regularly visiting the community, she had no idea!
“Was there no notification? Has anyone seen it?”
“I-I haven’t seen it either!”
It wasn’t just Kang Hanseo. Jueun and Do Junyoung also shook their heads.
So who was the unknown one?
“Has there ever been a time where someone joined and there was no new notification?”
“No, there hasn’t.”
Kang Hanseo shivered as if he had seen a ghost and hugged his arms tightly.
“What is it, really? It’s not like the system is malfunctioning! T-T-T-T-Then is it a ghost?! Do ghosts have access to the system? H-Hacked! A ghost hacked it!”
“That doesn’t make sense, Hanseo.”
The way Song Hanna looked at Kang Hanseo was very pitiful. What should she do with this cowardly S-Rank?
“Even though the results of the S Rank decision have not been made recently, the fact that the number of people has increased would only happen in a situation where their status as an S-Rank got confirmed without it being measured.”
“It looks like they made a contract with a great sacrament .”
Unlike Kang Hanseo, who was trembling, Song Hanna and Jueun talked nonchalantly.
There were two ways to determine a rating.
After awakening, the rating would be measured through a magic meter, or the rating would be confirmed through a contract with a sacrament.
Those two were the latter.
All the sacraments behind them were strong enough to give them an S-Rank awakening just by signing.
“I really wonder who they are. I wish they registered with the association.”
Jueun murmured in a disappointed tone. They had a new strong colleague and they didn’t even know who they were.
It was a little disappointing since they were in a position where they worked together until the day they died.
“Being unregistered is a crime, but if it’s an S-Rank it’s hard to argue against it. I’m curious about the New Face, but what should we do?”
Hanna, who was thinking while stroking her chin for a while, saw Kang Sejun sitting opposite her.
His expressionless face didn’t seem to be interested in the situation, or perhaps he was relaxed because he knew something.
It’s weird. Just by looking at his face he was in his 20s, but it was hard to understand what he was thinking.
Hanna thought he was a very funny guy and threw a word at him.
“You’re the first L-rank in Korea, do you have any idea?”
“Well, I don’t know everything, but I can guess one thing. It’s more likely that they are the one who killed the grade 2 boss beast.”
Oh, a realization flashed on the faces of the people who had forgotten about that with the sudden appearance of Kang Sejun.
“Yeah, I was curious about that, too. You said someone else caught the boss mob that evolved into a beast? We were in the dungeon, so we didn’t see it.”
“As soon as I heard the message that the break was accelerating, I tried leaving. But it took some time because there was a snake as strong as the boss blocking the entrance.”
Jueun’s expression darkened. This was because some people were injured by the boss during the delay.
This wouldn’t have happened if he had been more careful. It was his mistake as the raid leader.
“By the time we managed to get out, the situation had already ended. This is the corpse of the boss beast.”
Song Hanna’s eyebrows twitched when she saw the picture.
The head of the snake that was so big that it could swallow a car was blown away.
“How can they handle things so poorly?”
Tsk tsk. Couldn’t they have done it more neatly?
Song Hanna’s lamentation made Kang Hanseo widen his eyes. Song Hanna, who said that was someone who liked blowing everything with telekinesis.
There was no one here who didn’t know that.
“Kang Sejun, what did you see?”
“A woman. But I couldn’t see her face because she was wearing a gas mask. Judging by the weapon she used, she seems to be a shooter.”
“A shooter, that’s a rare trait. It might be surprisingly easy to find them. What else?”
“As you may have guessed, there’s a good chance she signed with a fairly strong sacrament. The weapon alongside the regeneration jacket looked unusual, which would have been hard to get without the aid of a sacrament.”
“They must have a diamond spoon in their mouth.”
When Song Hanna complained in a jealous tone, the eyes of Yoo Sueun and Kang Hanseo became fierce.
The one who signed a contract with the strongest sacrament in Korea was SOng Hanna hearself.
“If anyone finds the new S-rank, let us know immediately. If she is good enough to beat a grade 2 boss beast in one shot, we have to keep her in Korea. Maybe she’s stronger than me.”
“The domestic ranking is going to turn upside down.”
“I’ve already stepped down from number one. I look forward to your kind cooperation, Mr. New #1.”
Boy, the burden was too heavy to carry on her old shoulders.
Hanna shrugged and rubbed her shoulders for no reason.
Even though she was the oldest S-rank in the country, no one believed her because she was still in full swing.
***
After the conversation, the other S-Rankers went back to their guilds.
Do Junyoung was scheduled to take charge of the briefing for the grade 2 dungeon attack and the appearance of the L-Rank awakened.
Because of that, Kang Sejun and Do Junyoung headed to the chief’s office. His gaze turned to Yoon Seora who was sitting down and went outside for a brief moment.
“Are you familiar with your subordinates?”
“What do you mean?”
Kang Sejun shrugged as if it was a meaningless question at his dimly frowning face.
“The staff here hardly seems to know that the chief is an S-Rank. I was just wondering if there was a similar case.”
“You mean there’s someone here who’s hiding their grade like me?”
Do Junyoung’s face became serious. As if telling him to tell him right away if that was the case.
Just one S Rank awakener could change the world.
Not to mention an L-Rank, which was even higher than that.
“One of our S Rank hunter is already active overseas. But they are the exception. He didn’t leave Korea completely, and he promised that he would put priority here if there was an emergency.”
