Episode 65
this… .
Sihyeon had no choice but to remain silent for a moment. A sudden ripple occurred in his mind and became complicated.
Have you ever met… .
How should I respond? It was difficult to understand the intent of the question in a short period of time. I had to somehow hit it sensuously.
Sihyeon desperately squeezed out his thoughts. Then, a thought suddenly occurred to me.
The opponent looks like a predator. So even if we met, would we ever know? You won’t know.
However, from the beginning, the other person spoke as if what he knew was obvious.
That means… .
When that thought came to mind, I found a way to answer.
Sihyeon opened her mouth again.
“You’re asking a strange question, Cheonbyeon. I’m sure you’ve met someone with that face before. Isn’t that why you appeared with that face on purpose?”
Did I really answer correctly?
Si-hyeon looked at the river with seemingly calm eyes and watched for reactions. Part of me was worried that there might be a bad reaction.
“Ahaha.”
Fortunately, she smiled.
“I’m sorry. It seems like you’ve only recently awakened, so I told you that in case you wouldn’t remember. I guess it was a pointless thought.”
memory?
It was something that caught my eye. It was the same stumbling block I felt earlier when I was asked if we had ever met in another world.
no way.
Are there any awakened people who can share the memories of the original owner of the power? I’ve never heard anything like that anywhere.
But it was possible to make some inferences from what she said.
What if only the S class could do that?
Of course, it would not be known to the public. And as I thought about it that way, what she said began to make sense, like a puzzle being solved.
She thinks of Sihyeon herself as an S-class awakened person.
why?
There’s no way he would think like that just because he killed two C-rank assassins. So what else did you leave behind at the point of contact with Black Cross? Is that by any chance?
Hellfire?
I saw it and felt it firsthand, but Hellfire was not a magic that an ordinary wizard could use.
Probably some great high level magic.
So, are you thinking of yourself as an archmage?
no.
There is a person in Black Cross who witnessed him using magic with his sword.
So why is the sword with Hellfire engraved so famous?
It can be said that it is one of the continent’s five most famous swords, so it is written in the description. So, does it mean that the owner can also clearly guess?
She is also an S-class awakened person, so if she can share the original owner’s memories as assumed, she will be able to find out that much easily. It seemed that she mistook herself for the unknown man who was Poahim’s close friend.
Since the power of the dead can also come over, it seemed like Acurelust could not have guessed that it would be in Poahim’s hands.
“If that was your intention… I understand. I will understand.”
“thank you.”
“But I have some work to finish this evening. If I don’t have anything more to say, I’ll just leave.”
Sihyeon attempted to end the conversation first. Because it seemed like it would be possible if you were in a state of illusion like you are now. Moreover, if the conversation continued longer than this, it would have been very difficult if the identity of the person was revealed.
In his current state, he was an opponent he could not possibly defeat. If the other person had murderous intentions, he had no choice but to die.
“I see. I’m sorry for wasting your time. Then, I hope to see you again next time under better circumstances.”
Fortunately, Cheonbyeon did not do much to stop him. Rather, after saying that, he disappeared first. It disappeared into the darkness without a trace, as if it had never been there before.
It was a story so mysterious that it gave me goosebumps. In addition, he has a cartoonish appearance. Is there anyone else as scary as an assassin? It seemed like he could kill anyone if he put his mind to it.
“….”
Sihyeon stared into empty space without saying a word, and then slowly headed home.
◈ ◈ ◈
‘There are still many things I don’t know.’
Sihyeon thought, lying down on the bed and looking at the ceiling. It is true that by being involved in work such as cotton ball technicians and double gates, I have heard a lot of information that is difficult for low-level hunters to know.
However, after experiencing what happened today, I felt that there were still many things I did not know.
‘Multiple jobs, multiple prestige.’
The woman named Cheonbyeon had a completely different status window form than the other infamous awakened people that Sihyeon had seen so far. Rather, it was similar in shape to Poahim’s status window.
It was possible to guess.
Because it’s S-class.
That was the only reason.
“As expected, Poahim was also S-rank.”
Sihyeon muttered with a strange expression. If she had known that when she had just awakened, she would have been insanely happy. She must have jumped out of the room, screaming at her to leave because her life had been turned upside down.
However, after awakening to Poachim’s power and experiencing many things up until now, I had a rough guess that Poachim was a person with much greater power than I first thought. He has a connection to Archmage Hyris, and a man with a close friend who has Acure Luts cannot possibly be an ordinary person. Of course, it still felt good.
But something didn’t feel real. It sounded like someone else’s story. So I was able to accept it somewhat calmly.
no… Is something strange? That can’t be possible.
Oh my, now that I think about it, the executioner’s cruelty was still activated.
Sihyeon hastily deactivated Relentless.
Then, suddenly, the feeling that had been sinking in coldness exploded.
“I… I’m S-level. Huh? S-level! Do you know? My brother is S-level! Kim Soo-jin, who dumped me, are you listening?”
Sihyeon clenched his fists on the bed and celebrated to his heart’s content.
… Rolling forward, rolling backwards, jumping around, push-ups.
He expressed such joy that the dust flew up.

“As expected, Poachim, the best guard. I trusted you. I trusted you, Uncle Poachim. Uncle Po is love.”
Of course there was no answer.
But this time I didn’t put on the blanket.
There are at most 5 S-class people in Korea. Even when expanding to other countries, the only countries with more than 10 people were the United States and China.
Of course, there may be some S-class people hidden in the shadows, but even taking that into account, they were precious and precious beings all over the world.
You can become that kind of being!
“Yes, good! Good, good!”
After going on a rampage like that for a while, I felt a little calmer. She was so excited that she felt thirsty, so Si-hyeon took out some cold water from the refrigerator and gulped it down.
widely.
Sihyeon’s expression had returned to its usual expression as she put down the glass cup.
“But… when will I become stronger?”
Whether it was intentional training or unavoidable circumstances, Poachim was unpacking what he had little by little. It was strange that the S class didn’t have any legendaries of its own. It seemed like he was planning on keeping it hidden and releasing it once his reputation increased or he was promoted.
Is this really just training with carrots for motivation? Or are you not eligible yet or something?
No, more than that… How long have you been depressed?
When I opened the status window, I was always greeted by the word “depressed jailer” at the top. The S-class modifier we saw from Cheonbyeon earlier was ‘legendary.’
A legendary jailer.
It’s a word that has a really wonderful resonance. The problem was that I didn’t know when that would happen. I didn’t know how many quests I had to complete, how famous I had to become, how many promotions I had to get, and when I would even be able to reach the S-level threshold.
“Ha… Well, I have no choice but to take it step by step.”
It wasn’t something that could be done in a hurry. I felt like I had no choice but to empty my mind and live hard.
◈ ◈ ◈
“Did you hear what I said?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Scholarship.”
“Of course I heard about it. He’s such a famous person.”
“That’s true. Anyway, I think people definitely change after they become sick enough to die.”
“I still don’t believe it. Isn’t there something up there?”
“It’s natural to think that way, given what that person has done so far. But that’s true.”
“uh.”
“The eyes cannot lie. When I looked at them, the arrogant attitude that used to look down on people completely disappeared and I became as simple as a cow.”
“Pfft… no, this guy is trying to make people laugh. What is scholarship? Naive? I’m so… ridiculous, ridiculous.”
“See it for yourself sometime. Then you’ll know what I mean.”
The rumor that Jang Hak-gi changed after getting sick was a hot topic in the Korean prison. It may have become a hot topic because it is a rumor that is hard to believe.
That’s because it’s the scholarship period and no one else’s. Without exception, all correctional officers working at Korean prisons have experienced it at least once or heard of its notoriety. So it’s even harder to believe.
At first, the prevailing opinion was that it was because he had not yet recovered his energy. He thought that once he regained his strength, he would return to his damned nature.
However, even after a day or two, the attitude toward accepting scholarships did not change. As time continued to pass, the prison guards began to believe that scholarship had really changed.
◈ ◈ ◈
“Mr. Jang Hak-gi.”
“Yes, manager.”
“You’re going on a mission today.”
“Yes, it is.”
“I hope it doesn’t come back in.”
“thank you.”
Today was the day of the Supreme Court’s final ruling on Jang Hak-gi. If you are found guilty, you will be brought back, but if you are found not guilty, you will be released right away.
Si-hyeon, of course, hoped that Jang Hak-gi would be found innocent, not guilty. That way, his usefulness became much higher.
If he is acquitted, it will be very easy to be elected as a member of the National Assembly again. If so, it is the 6th line. Naturally, his position within the party will increase.
“Mr. Jang Hak-gi.”
Sihyeon’s arm wrapped around Jang Hakgi’s shoulders.
Physical contact with the original inmate should not be allowed. This was a basic warning that even senior guards gave to new recruits. This is because there is a possibility of giving an excuse to file a complaint or file a complaint, such as the use of violence or coercion.
However, Sihyeon had no hesitation at all. This is because he knows very well what kind of situation Jang Hak-gi is in front of him.
“…Yes, manager.”
When Jang Hak-gi came in contact with Si-hyeon’s body, he flinched without realizing it. His whole body trembled slightly, perhaps because he was nervous.
Sihyeon spoke in a low voice so that those around her could not hear.
“Do you remember what I asked for?”
“Yes, of course.”
What Sihyeon asked for.
The request was to propose and pass a bill that would allow hunter activities to be included as an exception to the ban on concurrently serving as public officials, as they are largely for the public good. If Jang Hak-gi takes the initiative himself and uses his connections in the political world, it would not be difficult to pass such a bill.
If the bill was passed like that, Sihyeon could freely conduct raid activities without worrying about anyone. I was no longer worried about being caught and being disciplined.
Sihyeon opened her mouth again.
“Okay, thank you. Oh, and.”
“yes.”
“You’re not going to cut off contact just because I went out, are you?”
“Oh, how could you say that? How could that be possible? Please feel free to contact me at any time.”
“Well, that can’t be possible. Jang Hak-gi is my eternal servant.”
“Yes, that’s right. I am your eternal servant.”
“Haha, good. Feel the social atmosphere after a long time and be sure to eat tofu.”
“Yes, manager.”
“Then let’s meet outside often.”
Sihyeon patted Jang Hakgi on the back.
