Episode 139
“The building is nice.”
Sihyeon muttered as she looked at the building where the newly moved Yangji Guild was located.
At first, I had no money, so I started in a place as shabby as Grace Guild.
Gradually, as the number of skilled hunters increased and my income increased, I was able to move to a better place.
And this time, I bought a luxurious 7-story building on top of my family assets.
Certainly, being an A-level hunter makes money.
A lot of that too.
Sihyeon looked at the building once again and nodded with satisfaction.
Although the current Yangji guild falls short of the so-called major guilds, it has a power that is at all comparable to that of a well-known mid-sized guild.
And I was confident that I could grow further in the future.
Sihyeon entered the building.
Yangji Guild was on the 7th floor.
The remaining floors were being rented out.
I took the elevator and went up to the 7th floor.
The guild office was right across from the elevator.
Sihyeon opened the door and entered the guild office. The simple yet clean interior caught her eye.
“Huh? Hello, Chief!”
The inmates, or rather the hunters, who discovered Si-hyeon entering, stood up and greeted him in loud voices.
I also bowed deeply.
It was like welcoming the boss of an organization.
I wouldn’t know it from inside, but my face stings when I’m greeted like this from outside.
That’s why I asked them to refrain, but it didn’t seem to work as I wanted.
It was almost a conditioned reflex to bow down.
It seemed like it was the influence of the Iron Blood Guard.
So I decided to just do it now.
“hello.”
Sihyeon received a greeting and headed to the guild leader’s office. When I opened the door and entered, the guild leader, Cheolhyeong, was inside.
“Hello, Chief.”
Cheolhyung greeted the vision with a smiling face.
“Your face looks good.”
Sihyeon also smiled and went to sit on the sofa next to the reception table.
Cheolhyung put down a cup of green tea in front of Sihyeon and sat down across from her.
“Once you get out of prison, isn’t the world supposed to look beautiful?”
“When did that happen and is it still like that?”
“I constantly remind myself so as not to lose my original intention.”
“Mr. Cheolhyung, I’m not joking. I think it’s true.”
Sihyeon chuckled and took a sip of green tea.
Then he continued.
“Is anything going on?”
“There is one raid that has been urgently scheduled, so there are some changes to the schedule.”
“What if it’s an urgent raid?”
“This is the gate gun.”
“Ah, I see.”
Sihyeon nodded.
Lee Sang-Gate, which first occurred in Korea, soon became a global problem.
The frequency of occurrence was not high.
Rather, it was very low.
However, even if the frequency is low, once it occurs, it certainly causes great damage.
Quite a few people around the world have lost their lives due to strange gates.
So it had to be a serious problem.
Meanwhile, he claimed that he had discovered a decisive clue to finding out where abnormal gates occur in the United States.
To make sure it wasn’t just words, they even launched an Isang Gate surveillance satellite along with extensive publicity.
Each country was skeptical.
However, we are really starting to guess exactly where strange gates occur in the United States.
Naturally, each country asked for help.
However, the United States has clearly declared that this is a technology that cannot be shared for various practical reasons.
If you want to receive help from the United States, you must pay a reasonable price for it.
Naturally, there was a strong backlash from other countries, but there was no other solution, so in the end, I had no choice but to be dragged to the United States, crying.
Nowadays, only countries such as Russia, China, and North Korea have not opened their hands to the United States through the Gate Gun.
Since the frequency of occurrence was very low anyway, it meant that even if some damage occurred, they did not want to give in and go in.
“This time, we will be attacking the Lee Sang Gate together with the Sun Guild.”
The level of abnormal gates was found to be slightly higher than that of ordinary Class A gates.
Therefore, no matter how large the guild was, it was not entrusted to one place.
To ensure certainty, the Hunter Association decided to conduct a joint attack on these gates.
However, because the profits from the above gates were enormous, competition was fierce.
It is usually entrusted to large guilds, but if you entrust it only to large guilds, there will always be backlash and backlash.
Therefore, even competent mid-sized guilds were sometimes given the rights.

This time, it was Yangji Guild’s turn.
“If it’s the Sun Guild…is it number 1 in the industry?”
Sihyeon said.
Because it was so famous, it was a name you could not help but hear while working as a hunter.
“That’s right. It’s famous for having a lot of skilled hunters.”
“When is the attack date?”
“It’s this Friday.”
“hmm.”
Sihyeon was lost in thought for a moment.
If it’s Friday, it’s a weekday.
Sihyeon did not raid on weekdays when she was at work. So if it was a normal gate, he would have passed it without much thought.
However, when I heard the word Lee Sang Gate, something moved my heart.
As someone who personally experienced the first Sang Sang Gate, Sihyeon believed that there was something about the Sang Sang Gate that had not yet been revealed.
Sihyeon thought of an unidentified man with gray hair.
It’s strange.
I have never heard of an unidentified being that closely resembles such a human coming out of the Gate.
At least in Korea.
Is this the case in other countries as well?
Maybe it came from another country but is hiding it.
Anyway, Sihyeon felt like crashing into the gate at least once more.
Of course, that time we had to fight to the death with the enemies that came out, and this time we had to enter the gate.
If you hit it with your own body, you might be able to find out something.
“I guess I’ll have to take annual leave.”
Sihyeon muttered.
“yes?”
Cheolhyung looked at me with puzzled eyes, as if wondering what that meant.
“I am also participating in this raid.”
Sihyeon spoke clearly this time.
“That’s what you said. I understand. I will understand and prepare accordingly.”
◈ ◈ ◈
“No, do you plan on staying in Korea until this week?”
Sihyeon said with a very disgusted look on her face.
“What is that? I’m in Korea. Did you give me anything?”
Lin Xue made a tick.
“Well, not really… I’m not free on Friday anyway.”
“Why? Do you have any plans after work?”
“I had a raid scheduled that day.”
“Raid? Do you go on raids on weekdays too?”
She asked that question as if she already knew Sihyeon’s lifestyle pattern well.
“I usually don’t go, but this gate is a weird gate, so I’m going to give it a try.”
“Aha, this is the gate.”
Lin Xue nodded with a knowing look.
She continued.
“Then you might be interested.”
“So I’m going to go.”
“But it won’t be a big deal, right?”
“okay?”
Shi Xuan looked straight into Lin Xue’s eyes.
“If there was something different, I would have known it right away.”
“Have you ever tried to attack another Gate? There was no such story.”
“This person… really thinks I’m just having fun.”
“Wasn’t it like that?”
Sihyeon widened her eyes as if she was surprised.
“…Ugh, let’s not talk.”
Lin Xue sighed and shook his head.
Seeing her like that, Sihyeon inwardly sighed and took a piece of tenderloin steak with his fork and put it in his mouth.
They were now at an upscale restaurant near Seoul.
Whenever she was in Korea, she would invite Sihyeon to eat with her.
Since she paid for the meal and acted as the driver, Si-hyeon didn’t find her offer particularly bothersome.
Sihyeon was no longer concerned about money, but the food she got from others still tasted better.
“Anyway, don’t come looking for me on Friday.”
Sihyeon said.
“That’s right. Um….”
Lin Xue looked like he was thinking about something. She then opened her mouth and she spoke.
“I’m bored. Should I go with you?”
“what?”
Hearing the unexpected words, Si-hyeon stared at Lin Xue’s face.
“I don’t have anything else to do, but I thought I’d go too.”
“No… it’s not a system where anyone can go where they want.”
Of course, the association staff will check at the gate entrance.
Since it was a gate of such high importance, there was nothing more to say.
“What does it matter? Just sneak in.”
“….”
Well, if she decides to sneak in, who can stop her?
But wait a minute.
Sihyeon frowned slightly.
If she is there, you won’t be able to take out the guard’s baton at will, and you won’t be able to use Poahim’s skills at will.
It’s so frustrating just thinking about it.
“I don’t think you need to.”
“Why? You don’t like it?”
Sihyeon pondered for a moment, wondering how to respond, and then began to open her mouth.
“No, it’s not that I don’t like it. You know that the intense battle experience in raids helps me gradually recover my strength. I’ve now risen to B-rank. But when you’re around, that fierceness disappears.”
“Well, I know what you mean.”
Lin Xue said as if he understood.
“Okay, I’ll think about it some more.”
‘I think it’s better if you just don’t come.’
Sihyeon did not say those words out loud.
If you reject something too sharply, it will make them want to come.
“It tastes good here.”
Sihyeon’s choice was to just talk back.
◈ ◈ ◈
“Are you here, Chief?”
When Sihyeon arrived, the first attack team of the Yangji Guild was already on the scene.
As they bowed and greeted them, Sihyeon waved his hand as if there was no need to do so.
I was concerned about the gaze of those around me, but other than the association staff, I couldn’t see anyone else.
It seemed that the Sun Guild had not arrived yet.
Actually, there is such a perception on this floor.
When conducting a joint attack, those who are lower in rank must arrive first.
“Chief.”
Cheolhyung approached.
Next to him was an unemployed person.
One eye and ear showed clear signs of injury from that day. Still, he didn’t cover up the scar.
“Has everyone arrived?”
Sihyeon asked Cheolhyung.
“yes.”
“Okay. Let’s prepare thoroughly before going in.”
“All right.”
Cheolhyung answered, approached the members of the attack team and gave them instructions.
‘I guess you haven’t come to Linshu.’
I looked around once more, but couldn’t see her.
It seemed like his persuasion had worked.
“came.”
someone said
Indeed, several vehicles were seen lined up and approaching this way.
They were all luxury vehicles.
I could tell right away that it was a raid from the Sun Guild.
Well, if it weren’t for them, no one else would come here.
Before we knew it, the area around the site had become a parking area for all kinds of luxury vehicles.
Sihyeon quietly walked among the guild members and mingled with them.
This is because I had no desire to stand out in a situation like this.
My skills weren’t yet high enough to show off to my heart’s content.
He was just going to stay buried and raid.
however.
“huh?”
Sihyeon thought he had seen it wrong.
So I tilted my head and looked again.
But the same image clearly caught my eye.
Starting with her petite body, the way she walked was just right.
Sujin Kim.
She, who had kicked herself so hard, was walking along with the engineering team members of the Sun Guild.
