Episode 81
In front of the gate, ten men and women dressed as hunters were talking in a friendly atmosphere.
“Brothers, are we okay?”
At the words of the female hunter, a B-class hunter belonging to the Sangdong guild tapped the breastplate.
“Don’t worry. Don’t you believe us?”
“Baby, believe me. But someone died here last week.”
“Never mind those assholes. Who are you to blame for the people who don’t even have the skills to mess around and lose? Isn’t that right, Changsoo-hyung?”
Lim Chang-soo, who had been listening quietly, exhaled cigarette smoke into the air.
“If you are anxious, go home. Don’t make the atmosphere go away.”
An atmosphere that instantly became cheap. The female hunter who had spoken before her forced her to raise the corners of her mouth.
“No oppa, I just.”
“Shut up. What should I do?”
“… … sorry.”
“Then it’s dented in a corner. Even if it’s not you, there are plenty of bitches to bring.”
There is no law that no one rebels against harsh words and actions. I just try to lighten the mood with an awkward smile.
This sight was familiar and natural to Lim Chang-soo.
‘Jerk the.’
Gate is a goose that lays golden eggs called magic stones, and Hunter is a worker who harvests golden eggs. Born into a marm family, he was different from the start.
I’m going to go to a hotel right now or I’m stuck. It’s annoying when rumors spread again.”
“Brother, you can trust them.”
“I don’t believe you, bastard. Last time they said they were trustworthy too?”
“That’s what… … The Sangdong guild is a middle-ranking guild that farts in the neighborhood, but it is not enough to ignore the public eye. Up until now, he had touched a woman by mistake a few times and had been warned by his father, the guild leader.
“Let’s do our best so that there are no problems. huh?”
“yes. I’ll keep that in mind. Loyalty!”
“Tsk. I am good at answering.”
Lim Chang-soo flicked a half-burnt cigarette. As if waiting, an order came from the side.
“Wind.”
The wind generated by magic blows cigarette butts and smells far away.
The female wizard who cast the spell showed a charming smile.
“Did I do well?”
Lim Chang-su shot the female wizard up and down. It was a kind of spawning relationship with her, a stunning beauty with her shapely figure.
Contrary to her outstanding beauty, she is a C-class hunter with poor skills. However, she joined the Sangdong Guild simply because she is the lover of the guild leader’s son.
In addition, a house, a car, and many luxury items… … It all came out of Lim Chang-soo’s pocket, but I never thought it was a waste.
‘Well, it was like that until now.’
But today my mind has changed. The body, the look, the mood. She looks tacky and cheap compared to the girl I met half an hour ago.
‘Did you say song song?’
Just thinking about it made my stomach feel heavy.
A flower too precious to be in a flimsy new guild. I was thinking of picking out a single root and planting it in my pot.
“Brother, is something good? Why are you laughing so much?”
Lim Chang-soo did not answer. Instead, he waved at five people who appeared from afar.
“Ah, here it is!”
Of course, I did not forget to add a small voice to my ex-lover.
“Who is your brother, bitch.”
No, no, Lim Chang-soo said with a bright smile.
“You are here. Oh, these are my teammates.”
Those who seemed to belong to the Sangdong guild bowed their heads.
Including Lim Chang-soo, there are just five males and five females. All of them wore flashy and expensive equipment, but they put more emphasis on design than practicality.
especially… … .
‘Oh wow.’
In the case of female hunters, I don’t know where to put my eyes. Lim Kkeok-jeong, a married man with two children, whispered with a firm face.
“Awesome.”
I almost nodded my head involuntarily, but I managed to hold it in.
It was because Songi was looking at us with a bad expression.
‘by the way..
Is this a raid or a blind date? It is easy for a handsome and pretty man and woman to enter the gate smiling hahahoho in pairs, and then go to the goal.
Well, looking at the level and equipment, it seems to be okay, but
“Has everyone gathered?”
A middle-aged civil servant in charge of the gate checked the number of people and their qualifications. It is one of the steps you must go through before entering.
“Sangdong guild, five B-class people and C-class five people. Is that right?”
Lim Chang-soo showed a polite smile.
“you’re right.”
“Then the Peace Guild. Two B-levels, two C-levels, and… … The hand of the official who was flipping through the hunter license stopped.
“An E-ranker? Where are you?”
Lim Kkeok-jeong raised her hairy arm.
“Oh, I am.”
“Do you have a position?”
“The person in charge doesn’t have an eye for it. Would you use magic while carrying such an ignorant shield? Hehe.”
“You are a tanker.”

The official frowned.
Tankers are literally human shields that block attacks from monsters in the forefront. Because of that risk, along with healers, they receive the highest allowance among hunters, and the death rate is high.
“Why do E-class come here? Is that a tank too?
I am.”
“You can get a lot in one room, right? If you drop even magic stones, you won the lottery.”
“Brother, are you really okay today?”
“Don’t worry. Hyerin, this oppa will protect you.”
Gossip spread among Lim Chang-soo’s teammates. The officials who had to let us in were no exception.
“An E-class tanker?
Deacon Kim stepped out at his worried voice.
“He is a 20-year veteran.
I don’t think there’s any problem since I’m wearing enough gear to prepare for danger.”
“Veteran is good, but it is good. You know. fatal accident last week. Two C-class tankers died. In this situation, this is true.”
It was then that unexpected reinforcements appeared.
“Chief, how can it not be?”
Im Chang-soo He spoke softly.
“I’ve already signed a cooperative raid contract, and I met such good people, but it’s a bit disappointing to have it invalidated.”
“Me, so this is it.”
“I would be very grateful if you could go over it with a little guidance… … please.”
What a strange guy. The words that come out of the mouth are gratitude and request, but the neck is stiff and the action is high-handed.
The government official, who flinched for a moment, let out a sigh.
“great. Instead, the team leader should control it well.”
“Sure.”
it’s crackdown The tone is very bad.
With the help of Lim Chang-soo, the permission was granted, but a corner of my chest itched like an ant crawling.
‘Well, a good thing must be a good thing.’
Lim Kkeok-jeong, the person involved, has a calm expression, and it’s funny that I feel bad about it.
“Then you may enter.”
At the words of the official, people stood in front of the gate. Ten members of the Sangdong Guild and five members of the Peace Guild. It was an elite raid team with a total of 15 and only 7 B-class hunters.
“then… … Lim Chang-soo, who took the lead, winked as if it were natural.
“See you at the gate.”
Shoot ah-!
Songi muttered as Lim Chang-soo disappeared beyond the magic field.
“I’m unlucky.”
I think so too.
shoot it
It was only for a moment that the shady, sticky energy unique to magical power wrapped around the body.
When I opened my eyes, a new space opened up.
A gigantic cave that is incomparable to an F-class gate. And three gaping entrances. This is the place I saw on the video on the way.
‘If there’s anything else… … belt ring.
– You have entered the [Minotaur’s Labyrinth].
-quest,
[A Class B Gate Clea has been created.
There are system notifications that only you can hear. In addition to that, there are also quests.
“Now, let’s check the number of people and equipment before going in.”
While everyone was checking their belongings, I quietly moved to a corner of the cave and brainwashed myself.
‘Check the quest.’
belt ring.
[Clear the B-Grade Gate You have entered the B-Grade Gate for the first time in your life.
If the raid is successful only for the first time, a corresponding reward is given.
Rating: First Class Restriction: Jin Taekyung Mission: Clear Gate 昭 (Incomplete) Reward: ???
It’s a fresh start. It was the time when I closed the quest window with a warm smile.
“What are you doing by yourself?”
A voice came from behind.
When I turned my head, I saw Lim Chang-soo walking this way.
“Me?”
I thought I was looking at the wrong person, but I wasn’t.
“Jang Tae-kyung from the Peace Guild. Right?”
“This is Jin Tae-kyung.”
“Yes, Jang Tae-kyung.”
I don’t know if this person is deaf or if my tongue is wrong, but I nodded my head.
‘Because we’re going to see each other anyway.’
He had worked hard with Lim Kkeok-jeong earlier, so he was a little grateful.
“What business do you have for me?”
“Haha, I don’t even have to say business. This is also related, but it is said to be a common name. I introduced myself earlier, so you should know. i look forward to.”
Who did. I can’t spit on her smiling face. Although she was a bit awkward, she held Lim Chang-soo’s hand as he asked for a handshake with a smile on her face.
“Ah, yes, thank you for taking care of me too.”
The team leader of another guild with no one to meet first asks for a handshake?
I’ve run cooperative raids a few times over the past 7 years and have quite a bit of experience as a day job hunter, but this is the first time.
“Well, it was F-class back then.”
At that time, it was completely treated as air, but I wonder if I was treated like a human being as a C-class hunter.
‘But why me?’
The doubt was quickly resolved.
“It’s a black drake leather set, right?”
”ah.”
This kid is also a luxury bug. Lim Chang-soo, who flipped my equipment up and down, exclaimed exclamations.
“Hey, I’ve only seen this as a picture. Where did you buy it? Overseas direct purchase?
Or Cheongdam-dong?”
“I rented it.”
“You leased it from the company. I know you’re a C-class hunter, but will this be maintained… … . Oh, sorry. I never said anything out of malice. Are you in a bad mood?”
Of course you feel bad, man.
But he’s not stupid enough to openly show off his innermost feelings.
What Lim Chang-soo said is actually a cold reality.
‘But humans are a bit ignorant.’
I gently waved my hand. Mixed in a bit of fluff.
“I’m still bending my back. All I earn goes to maintenance expenses. People around me call me crazy.”
“Haha, is there anything more important than life? isn’t it?”
“Yes.”
“Then maybe others will too.”
“yes?”
“Other people. Peace Guild members. Everyone seems to have good equipment.”
“is that so? Because I don’t know that well.”
Lim Chang-soo laughed as if he had heard a funny joke.
Hey, that’s not what a person who spends a lot of money and even leases equipment will say.”
Reese is right, but he didn’t spend a lot of money. Because Team Manager Choi rents it for free. I thought for a moment about whether I should tell the truth, but soon gave up.
‘I have to say something like that.’
Trying to explain it only hurts my mouth.
Tired of talking about equipment any more, I evaded it appropriately.
“Everyone is just like me.”
“okay.”
At that time, one of Lim Chang-soo’s team members ran up and announced that preparations were complete.
“Oh, that was too long a chat. Then I’m off. Lastly, I think we should check the team members and move together.”
“Good job
“yep.”
Lim Chang-soo, who was about to leave with a polite nod, asked at once.
“right. That’s what I wanted to ask earlier.”
U?”
“Have you seen us somewhere?”
I would have been happy to hear it from Songi, but hearing it from a male wearing heavy armor made me feel bad.
“It is a first impression.
“is it so?”
“yes.”
I just thought it was a name I’d heard somewhere, but it’s true.
Im Chang-soo’s smile deepened at my firm answer.
“All right. Enough then.”
what. The last laugh somehow feels bad.
As I was staring at his back, Team Manager Choi approached me at some point and asked.
“Do you know someone?”
“No. We just want to be friends.”
“hmm. Isn’t that a scouting offer?”
“Not at all. I think I just said that I am a fan of equipment. He came right away and asked where I bought it.”
“I bought it in Cheongdam-dong.”
I’m not curious.
“Changsu-hyung, what’s wrong with that bastard all of a sudden?”
“just. Looking at it, the equipment was fine, so I sneaked it up.”
“Hey, it’s true. Is that your deal?”
Think about it, you bastard. How can you wear something like that for a c-level subject?”
“Then Reese? He’s crazy. Yoo Ji-bi wouldn’t be kidding.”
“Leave it. You’re cute. Trying too hard to live on your own.”
Lim Chang-soo laughed.
‘They were no big deal after all.’
It is true that I was worried because I came dressed in expensive equipment out of nowhere. If you touch it wrongly, things might get bigger.
But now that I’ve figured it out, my mind is at ease.
Song Songi.’
If you have two things, money and skill, you can do anything. It’s not even a matter of getting a girl. Lim Chang-soo believed that.
“Let’s start slowly. deliver it.”
“yep!”
