Episode 144
“No, team leader!”
The association’s employees, who were sitting around talking and smoking cigarettes, noticed Team Leader Seo and their eyes widened.
They quickly threw their cigarettes into a nearby trash can and stood up straight.
“Well, this is just a moment….”
“It’s okay, don’t worry about it.”
Team leader Seo said.
However, the employees seemed very uncomfortable showing such behavior to their superiors.
When a high-ranking person like Team Leader Seo came to the site, it was customary for an employee in the office to give the word first.
This is because you can know in advance and prepare.
However, the fact that there was no such comment meant that Team Leader Seo suddenly came by himself without telling me.
why?
The employees wondered what was going on, but nothing came to mind.
Team Leader Seo came here for only one reason.
Lee Si-hyeon.
I found that name in the morning and tried not to pay attention to it.
Still, it was on my mind that I walked here after working outside.
“Please sit down.”
With that said, Team Leader Seo first sat down on the bench next to him.
However, the employees were unable to sit down easily due to their anxious expressions.
Team Leader Seo glanced at his watch without saying anything again.
The clock showed 4:45.
The attack time for the gate varied greatly depending on the level of the raid, the structure of the gate, and the type of monster.
The same was true for the above gate.
However, in most cases, the delay did not exceed 10 hours.
If it exceeded that time, it would be as if the association had approved an ineligible attack team in the first place.
Team leader Seo predicted that even if it was an abnormal gate this time, it wouldn’t take a long time as the top guild’s very excellent attack team had entered the attack.
Team Leader Seo crossed his arms and looked at the gate.
Coincidentally, a change occurred at the gate at that time.
The color of the gate changed to white and the entrance began to open again.
“manager!”
The employees next to him also called him to see if they had noticed it.
Team leader Seo raised his hand to indicate that he knew.
Soon, people started coming out from the entrance of the gate.
They were hunters from the Sun Guild.
At the front, Nam Woo-sik walked out with a stern look on his face.
The expressions of the remaining hunters were also not good.
He must have been on his way out after clearing the gate, but he didn’t feel refreshed on his face.
Rather, it seemed like annoyance.
Along with that, he felt a sense of fatigue that he couldn’t hide, making it clear that he had suffered a significant battle.
Team leader Seo narrowed his eyes and looked at the hunters as if observing.
His eyes stopped on a woman.
‘Kim Soo-jin.’
She was clearly a class A wizard.
But there was blood here and there on the hem of the clothes.
If the gate attack is completed properly, there will be no blood on the body of the wizard in the rear.
If that wasn’t the case, it meant that the attack didn’t go smoothly.
The reason is unknown, but she looked upset and seemed to be having a heated argument with Han Ji-ho, the A-list healer next to her.
It was a calm and chaotic atmosphere that could not have been attributed to hunters who had just finished clearing the gate.
Team leader Seo, who was tilting his head, noticed a hunter behind him with one of his arms amputated, and his expression hardened slightly.
“…no way?”
The employee next to them also muttered in disbelief when they saw their condition.
I’ve been to a lot of sites related to the Sun Guild, but this is the first time I’ve seen something like that.
Because their skills were as certain as their reputations, their faces were always overflowing with composure and confidence as they came out of an attack.
Team leader Seo got up from his seat and approached Nam Woo-sik, the head of the engineering department.
Nam Woo-sik looked at him with an expression of surprise.
I never thought that such a person would come here in person.
“Was there any problem inside the gate?”
Team leader Seo just nodded and went straight to the point and asked.
“There was no problem. The attack ended successfully.”
Nam Woo-sik spoke with a grave expression that made it difficult to understand what was going on.
“It looks like there are some seriously injured people… It looks like the boss was quite strong.”
Team leader Seo did not miss the momentary slight twist in Nam Woo-sik’s expression as he spoke about the boss.
“Well, you can hear that from the people who come later.”
“yes?”
Team leader Seo was taken aback when Nam Woo-sik suddenly gave that answer.
Because it was an unexpected answer.
“Then I’ll just leave.”

Nam Woo-sik walked towards the parked car as if he had no intention of talking any more.
Team Leader Seo had no idea that Nam Woo-sik would do something like that, so he had no choice but to stand there with an awkward look on his face.
Other hunters also ignored the association employees as if they were not visible and headed toward their cars.
The employees were just dumbfounded, as if they were dumbfounded.
Soon, the Sun Guild’s hunters drove away and left the scene.
At the site, only the team leader and employees were left alone.
“…You look really in a bad mood?”
“Yeah, it looks like something happened.”
I could hear the employees having a soft conversation.
Team Leader Seo was silently lost in thought.
“Huh? It’s coming out!”
The employee’s voice broke the team leader out of his thoughts.
Just as he said, hunters from another guild began to come out of the gate.
however.
‘What is that?’
Team leader Seo made a bewildered face.
Their expressions were completely different from those of the Sun Guild hunters who appeared earlier.
Everyone seemed to be smiling, wondering what made them feel so good.
There seemed to be no fatigue from the gate attack at all.
It was truly incomprehensible.
Even if you attack the same gate, the situation cannot be 180 degrees different.
The other employees were looking at them with dumbfounded faces, probably feeling the same way.
As Team Leader Seo was looking at this strange and bizarre scene, someone caught his eye.
And very loudly.
The other person seemed to have spotted the team leader and greeted him with a smile.
‘… Is it you again?’
Team Leader Seo looked at Sihyeon and shook his head without even realizing it.
◈ ◈ ◈
-Title: Did you guys hear that? Has the Sun Guild been truly humiliated this time? lol
-Content: An acquaintance of mine is an employee of the association, and he said that the Sun Guild kids were humiliated to the greatest extent ever during the Lee Sang Gate raid the other day. I didn’t even get to see the boss and was taken away by the Yangji guys, but my friend is a C-rank hunter and I didn’t want to see him bragging to the neighbors that he joined the Sun Guild, but this time I met him, I chewed, plucked, tasted and enjoyed him. lol
“This floor is so narrow.”
Sihyeon sipped his beer and muttered.
He was currently looking at a community called ‘Hunter Room’.
Although it was not the most active hunter community in the country, this was a place where current hunters were actively active, so it was fun to see.
Rumors floating around in the domestic and international industry and other hunters’ views on associations and guilds were of sufficient interest to Sihyeon.
Anyway, it hasn’t even been long since the gate was conquered, but the story has already been posted here.
Sihyeon opened the dried squid and read the comments.
-Is this true? No matter how much I think about it, it doesn’t make sense. How big is the difference in weight between the Taeyang Guild and the Yangji Guild?
-Am I also anti to the Sun Guild?
-This is really true. I heard that too. I heard that the kids here don’t even believe what people say.
-Part-time job, part-time job. Anyway, there are a lot of Sun Guild part-time jobs everywhere.
-Who is right?
-It’s true. So the atmosphere in the Sun Guild is not good right now. lol
-It feels like the facts are true, right? I told you so. The Sun Guild is also an advertisement sucker.
-The effect of dominating the industry. No matter how you look at it, the White Dragon Guild is better, guys.
-Welcome to Baekryong part-time job.
-Isn’t this going to change the ranking of large guilds? I got bullied by Yangji, but who will support me?
-I support you, asshole. If you let me in, I will go all the way to the Sun Guild while doing three steps and one bow.
-Hey, they’re all guild hunters who are doing well on the internet, but in reality, they’re all in the gutter, right? Haha, how many people are above C level here hahaha?
-How about Yangji Guild? Do you think it will really take off this time?
-There’s a lot of family business going on there haha. You can’t get in without connections. They make an announcement, but everyone stops by and there are people nominated. Don’t ever support there because it’s so backwards. Does it seem like a group of centipedes are gathering together and doing handicrafts at home? f*ck hahahaha
Cluck, cluck.
Sihyeon coughed repeatedly as if he suddenly heard something.
After some time had passed, he seemed to have calmed down and took a breath with a red face.
“…Honestly, I have nothing to say.”
Sihyeon muttered.
It was Si-hyeon himself who instructed not to select anyone except the inmates.
They had to be people who still had the effect of the Iron Blood Guard.
This was because if someone who wasn’t like that came in, management wouldn’t work as they wanted.
So, although a formal announcement was made externally, only inmates were selected, not general applicants.
Still, I thought it wouldn’t matter since I didn’t know he was an inmate anyway, but it seems like this rumor ended up going around.
But even if such rumors spread, there is nothing we can do about it.
I have no choice but to keep going like this.
Sihyeon smiled bitterly and took a gulp of beer.
Anyway, I felt like I had a really good night’s sleep these past few days.
I still haven’t forgotten Sujin’s expression as if she chewed shit.
And if it’s her personality, she’s probably high and can’t sleep properly.
Sihyeon took another sip of beer with a pleasant smile on her lips.
At that time, the cell phone I had placed next to me vibrated.
Sihyeon picked up her phone and looked at the screen. A number appeared on the screen, not a name. This meant that it was not a number registered to the mobile phone.
Sihyeon thought for a moment and then answered the phone.
-The number is still the same.
A familiar voice came through the phone.
Sujin Kim, it was her voice.
Sihyeon laughed.
It seemed like my predictions were very accurate.
It seemed like the medication wasn’t going well enough so he ended up calling me like this.
“What happened? Weren’t you the one who told me not to contact you in the first place?”
Sihyeon deliberately spoke in a calm tone that did not contain any emotion.
-What does that matter now? Should I stay silent even after something like that happened to me?
Her voice was filled with irritation.
Just by hearing the sound, I could naturally picture what kind of facial expression he was making.
“What are you doing?”
Sihyeon spoke as if she had no idea what was going on.
That seemed to irritate Sujin’s nerves even more.
-To shamelessly pretend not to know. You did that to me, right? It’s ugly.
She spat out in a more nervous tone.
However, Sihyeon was not shaken at all.
“I don’t remember anything like that. I have no idea what they’re talking about.”
-Ha, yes. So you’re saying something like that, right?
“You really shouldn’t be so paranoid and push people around. Honestly, it looks so ugly.”
Sihyeon’s words were without hesitation.
Since it was a conversation between just the two of us, with no one around, we had no problem saying whatever we wanted.
-What, what? Ugly? profit… Are you talking nonsense now that your mouth is open?
“I’m just expressing my honest feelings.”
-How dare you say something to me when you are a maggot from the lower class? Ugly?
Sujin raised her angry voice.
“Stop it, stop it. What are you doing so lamely when you decided not to contact me? I’m hanging up.”
-what? Who can cut it off at will? Don’t hang up! Don’t hang up!
Too.
Sihyeon hung up the phone without paying any heed.
Then he laughed.
“It looks like the temperature has risen slightly.”
I thought that maybe he would come to see me in person, excited.
But it didn’t matter.
He was not a powerless and ordinary prison guard back then.
All I had to do was not give up and accept whatever he said.
◈ ◈ ◈
“Oh, it’s annoying! It’s annoying!”
After Sihyeon unilaterally hung up and continued not answering the phone, Soojin irritably threw away her phone.
She continued to huff with a red face.
The anger continued to build up without being relieved.
I can’t believe a low-class guard who has to rot in a prison and spend his entire life with the prisoners is so pissed off.
dare.
dare.
“Just wait and see! Don’t stay still! I won’t stay still! I’ll make you get down on your knees and beg!”
Sujin frowned and shouted as if she was going to tear Sihyeon to pieces.
