A pair of adult men’s shoes.

There was only one person in this neighborhood and this house that could wear these high-quality shoes.

His thick shoulders could be seen over the chair. The voices on the table were quite friendly.

“……In that case . Are you taking your medications well? I told you to pay attention to what they said.”

“Somehow it’s better than before. Thank you, vice president. I am always indebted to you like this. I apologise for always making you worried, is there anything I can do for you?”

“If you say it like that, I’ll be disappointed.”

“Oh, is that so? Oh, the kids are here. Zio, Ji-rok, come and say hello. The vice president is here.”

Tiger turned around.

There was already a slight smile around his eyes.

Just as he expected, Zio quietly placed both her hands on her belly button.

King Zio had a polite pose like a child from Cheonghak-dong who was excited about the world.

“Hello, vice president.”

‘What are you doing bothering me!’

“How have you been?”

‘Go out right now.’

What her eyes said was very different from her mouth.

Gyeon Ji-rok, who was next to her, also raised his head with a swampy look.

In the end, it was a fun family. Tiger held back his laughter and responded.

“I’ve been well. Zio-yang seems to have gotten more mature during the time I haven’t seen her.”

“Ugh, what do you mean more mature. There’s a long way to go. She still acts like a child and complains about the side dishes even though she is a grown up. Even though I am over 40, I still feel active because of her.”

“I can’t complain about side dishes, Zio-yang.”

‘……F*ck.’

She was suffering from a public execution.

Gyeon Ji-rok who showed his loyalty had long fled to his room.

Zio stood soulless and just recited  yes, yes.

Mrs. Park and Tiger were talking in a familiar way without any sense of incompatibility.

When she was young, it all started when the state selected Tiger as the one to take responsibility for the S-Rank Gyeon Zio.

At first, he accepted it simply because it was a request from the center, but it wasn’t long before he started doing it sincerely.

Therefore, the next flow that followed was the establishment of the sponsorship program.

In order to completely cover one piece, the entire board had to move.

The external name for it was the official collaboration between the Center and the 〈Silver Lion〉 guild.

It was a guardian system where the  〈Silver Lion〉 guild members formed a 1:1 relationship where they took care of the victims of the ‘Nightmare of March’ until they became adults.

There had been high praises all around, saying it was an example of social leadership, but…

In fact, the big picture was that the big shots had to take care of a little girl both openly and under the water.

It was a step taken so that a letter with the lion’s crest would be immediately put into Gyeon’s mailbox.

In addition, the signature of ‘Tiger’ the vice president of 〈Silver Lion〉 was also stamped in it.

From Zio to Gyeon Ji-rok.

Thus, the two siblings of the Gyeon Family grew up in the great arms of the 〈Silver Lion〉.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that most of their childhood was spent with Tiger in Eun Seokwon’s mansion.

Due to the sudden death of her husband, it would have been hard for her to make a living and take care of her 6-year-old youngest child, Geum-hee.

For Mrs.Park, this was no different than a rope coming to pull her up from her hardships, so it was only natural for her to treat him like her benefactor.

“I’m going to get up now, mother.

“It’s been a long time, so why don’t we have a meal together?”

“You should know of my situation of not being able to eat with others, don’t you? I just thought you’d be worried over the dungeon, so I stopped by, and I got to see Zio-yang’s face, that’s enough.”

Tiger got up and took his coat.

He stood around freely and looked towards one side.

“May I ask you to see me off?”

It seems he came by himself without an attendant.

The big car was parked alone in the corner of the alley. As soon as he left the house, Tiger searched through his arms.

Zio roughly nodded at his gaze that seemed to be asking for permission.

He had been touching his mouth the whole time, so it looks like he had been craving cigarettes for a long time.

Since it had been so long since the two got to know each other, they learned each other’s habits even if they didn’t want to.

“What did you talk about with Mrs. Park before we came in?”

“It’s always the same. Lions are responsible for their pride until they die. And you are in my pride.”

“Cringe-worthy.”

“I express my condolences to the dead sensitivity for the young people of this era. Adults like it.”

Tiger lowered his eyes and took out a cigarette before asking.

“’Sword-wielding Master’ was it?”

“…Shit. I was in a hurry, so It just popped out.”

A shallow smile leaked from the corners of his burning mouth. The light of the Zippo lighter shone on the side like a piece of marble and disappeared.

Cigarettes were like magic tricks. The lighter was a 41 year old Zippo.

The man, whose only hobby was collecting old books, tended to like things that had accumulated over the years.

“That’s an incredible naming sense, as expected of great Jo. I’m not even surprised.”

“……”

“Seeing that you aren’t annoyed, you seem to be well aware of the fact that you caused this accident. Why did you make a secondary identity that you won’t even use? It’s a hassle.”

“……”

“I can’t stop everything. The reporters are a group that gets louder the more you touch it.”

Of course, he would make sure the name ‘Gyeon Zio’ would not be mentioned by anyone.

“One B-Rank hunter license will be issued just in case. It’s an agreement with the director.”

“Whatever, as long as Mrs. Park doesn’t find out.”

Tiger laughed out loud.

“The people aren’t stupid enough to touch the king’s fatal point.”

“……”

“What about Tak Lamin? One of the agents was quite clever.”

Upon reading the document, the savvy agent requested information control.

Thanks to this, he was able to move quickly through the center.

The press side was just left alone to prevent further noise.

By now, all witnesses of the dungeon with no exceptions must have been contacted by the government. To sign a confidentiality pledge.

Therefore, no matter how much people talked about the ‘master’ for even a 100 days, it would be no use.

There were no chances of digging into the inner core of ‘Gyeon Zio’.

“You’re lucky that you didn’t show your face. Otherwise it wouldn’t have been this clean.”

“Hmm. But do I have to get a B-Rank license?”

“As you know… There’s one person who cannot be silenced by state power. It’s not bad to be thorough.”

That gangster tofu ruined everything.

Zio muttered, chewing up Hwang Hon inside.

“You must have been busy.”

“Thanks to you, I missed some meetings.”

The smoke burned quickly.

Tiger’s shoes, which spat out the last smoke, stepped on the spark and extinguished it.

The gaze that only looked at her.

Tiger put his big hand over her head.

“You don’t look right.”

“…Stop that.”

“Sining and whining is for dogs to do. It’s cute, but act like a cat. I’m a biased human being, so I’m not interested in taking care of dogs.”

“What, get rid of it.”

Tak, a hand that loudly slaps.

Tiger laughed.

“It should be like this.”

He just walked towards the cae.

The distance between the roughly worn three-line slippers and shiny men’s shoes gradually grew.

Zio watched for a while and followed.

“Here you go”.

Tiger looked at the yellow umbrella that came out. He was wondering why she brought it out.

“I didn’t hear it was going to rain.”

“I’m more precise. There is heavy rain tonight.”

She snapped back and turned around. She was someone who never looked back once she turned around.

The car at the corner of the alley started only after the small back became completely invisible.

And that night.

Tiger stared out of his car window.

Tap, tap.

The rain, which suddenly started, did not get tired and continued on the whole night.

When the car door opened, the attendants busily opened their umbrellas. Instead of going under it, he opened the umbrella in his hand.

Among the large black umbrellas, the yellow umbrellas splashed horribly.

Tiger couldn’t help but laugh, he laughed.

“It’s small.”

Did she give him her size?

That fool.

[Good morning, Babel! Viewers, you’ve seen the commercial! I’m your MC, Mona!]

[I’m MC Lisa]

[Time for Wednesday’s intensive analysis section! The two precious guests today are the leader of the guild ‘Haetae’, the 8th ranker David Choi]

[Hii.]

[And the 17th ranker Cheong Hido who came from the tower!]

[Hello.]

[The two high rankers of Channel 1 who are very hard to see, are here with us! ]

[Before we start again, shall we briefly summarize for those who missed part 1 Lizaliza?] 

[Yes, Monamona. Today’s intensive analysis section deals with the topic of capital, which heated up SNS yesterday, and the so-called Master, who appeared in the Jong-ro UR Grade Dungeon. ]

[Since they succeeded in attacking a UR Grade Dungeon with a team that has a D-Rank average, it’s proven fact that they are an excellent player! Right?]

[Yes. And compared to that, there is very little information exposed] 

[So I wonder what it looked like in the eyes of the 2 experts! We had a hard time inviting you two!]

[First of all, David-nim was convinced that it’s a very good prosecutor! Ig… Ige… What did you say earlier? I’m sorry!]

[Igear sword.]

(The highest level of swordsmanship that can move sword with genuine skill and not hand)

[Yes, yes! I think I’ve heard of the Igear sword*, but I’ve never heard of the Igear sword** before. It’s a one letter difference. Is there a big difference? ]

(*이기어검까 , ** 이기어검강, both endings seem to mean sword so I don’t know the big difference sadly.)

[What… Can it compare? Igear Sword is just a bunch of goofy bastards swinging around their sticks like a crazy, and what f*cker can’t do that, huh? ]

[Gasp! I’m sorry! Don’t get mad! Save Mona!]

[Please refrain from using profane language, David-nim.]

[There’s nothing more to talk about. They are just a jerk. It’s not a normal swordsman but a swordsman with no shape at all. A person with good talent is someone anyone with a good eye can’t help but covet. In that sense, we…]

[Wait. Excuse me, but my views are slightly different. ]

[What? What does the gloomy tower addict know? Get the hell out!]

[… Yesterday someone told me this was magic, so I analyzed the video all night long. We need to think about two more possibilities. This video was either tampered with or…]

Perhaps this ‘Master’ was a magician of considerable skill.
