< Golden Giant >
Wheeeeeeeeeeing!
An alarm was sounded throughout the city, accompanied by a loud siren sound.
[Gate appears! Citizens in Mapo Districts 4, 5, and 6 are requested to evacuate to a nearby shelter.]
Citizens who heard the broadcast stopped what they were doing and started running. It was now a routine movement. There was little confusion.
But not all citizens were able to escape from the monsters.
Especially when the gate opens right in front of you, there’s nothing you can do about it.
“S, save me···.”
Choaaaak!
A blade demon appeared in the middle of the city, blowing human heads into the sky.
It was a humanoid monster whose entire body was made of metal, and the cutting power of the blades attached to its arms and legs was enough to cut even steel without difficulty.
Cackle, cackle.
The bladed ghost began to slaughter humans by roughly scraping the ground. In an instant, more than a dozen humans were slaughtered, and their bodies were dyed red with their blood.
“Eww!”
“Run away-!”
The gate opened in a densely populated area. The bladed ghost killed dozens of people on the spot and began chasing the fleeing humans.
The father and son, who had been cornered after running around frantically, hugged each other tightly and trembled.
The blade ghost was walking towards them with long strides.
“Hey, please save my child…”
The man held his son tightly and pleaded with the bladed demon. He knew that he couldn’t communicate with the monster, but he couldn’t think of any other way.
“Dad, I’m scared···.”
In the little boy’s hand was a toy that had been bought for his birthday today.
Hehe.
One corner of the red-tinged blade ghost’s mouth went up. At the same time, the blade in his right hand rose upward.
“Jun-ah! Run away even if you have to by yourself!”
The man closed his eyes tightly and rushed at the blade ghost, hoping to buy some time for his son.
And then a miracle happened.
-Kwaaaaang!
“uh···?”
The man opened his eyes and looked back and forth between the blade ghost flying into the far wall of the building and his own fist.
‘Surely I would awaken as a superhuman in a moment of crisis…!’
“Are you···okay···?”
The man came to his senses at the slow voice heard from the side. Then that’s right. It was useless to worry about quitting work and joining a superhuman guild.
“Thank you! Thank you!”
The man nodded and hurriedly left the place, carrying his son. He glanced back every now and then.
The back of the superman who saved himself and his son was visible.
The [WH-7] logo engraved on the back, and the roaring phoenix mark beneath it.
And then came the gigantic body of a superhuman shining in golden light.
“Thank you, Golden Giant!”
At the shout from behind him, Wang Guho scratched his cheek in embarrassment.
‘The golden giant is really a bit···.’
Although he thought it was a shameful nickname, Wang Guho raised his Geumgangdaeryukong and prepared for the Blade Ghost’s attack.
Woohoo!
Wang Guho’s body turned an even deeper golden color.
This was a phenomenon that arose when Wang Gu-ho’s superhuman trait
Citizens who had just died and come back to life cheered when they saw the sight.
“The White House Supermen are here!”
“It’s the Golden Giant! Now he’s alive!”
“The Phoenix emblem engraved on the back! The legendary 7 teams?”
“Guardian of Mapo-gu!”
‘Please stop it…’
Wang Guho wanted to hide in a mouse hole, but he couldn’t because the bladed ghost was rushing at him right in front of his eyes.
Kiyaaaaak!
A blade ghost emerged from the wall of the building and rushed at Wang Guho as if it was going to stab him.
Kagagagang!
However, even the blade ghost’s attack, which could easily cut through steel, could not leave a single scratch on Wang Guho’s body.
Kkwaduk!
Wang Guho caught the blade ghost as it was.
It was then that the WH-6 team arrived.
Team 6 leader Yong Dae-hoon, who arrived a step later than Wang Gu-ho, shouted.
“Wang Gu-ho! I told you not to act alone! If you’re a support team, act like a support team!”
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry… The current, current… situation, it’s urgent….”
“Huh. You probably want to play hero by yourself.”
Yong Dae-hoon, who was trembling, gave orders to the members of Team 6.
“Surround the gate! More might come out soon!”
Even though I don’t know about humanity, Yong Dae-hoon’s judgment was correct. After a while, three more Blade Ghosts emerged from the gate.

“King Guho! Tanking!”
“···yes···!”
Wang Guho withstood all four of the blade ghosts’ attacks on his own.
Woohoo!
I stimulated the blade ghost with the energy of the Geumgangdae Power Gong and drew aggro.
Dduk dduk!
The enemy’s body was restrained by appropriately utilizing the abilities of
Thanks to Wang Guho’s efforts, Team 6 was able to easily fight the monsters.
Honestly, Wang Gu-ho himself was a little proud of how much he had improved compared to three months ago.
‘If the team leader was there, would he have praised you?’
Wang Guho had been thinking about that a lot lately.
It’s already been three months since Daein and Lily went on vacation.
Most people in the guild were gossiping that they were dead, but Wang Guho thought that was absolutely impossible.
‘I hope you come back soon.’
Before he knew it, there was only one Blade Ghost left, so Wang Guho had enough free time to think about other things.
Wang Gu-ho, who had some free time, looked around. Most of the citizens had retreated to a safe distance. Now, if only the situation could be resolved…
‘Someone please help me!’
“!!”
It was a very small voice.
Wang Guho turned his head in the direction where the voice came from.
A thin groan that you would not have heard if you had not learned martial arts.
Wang Guho moved immediately. After all, there was only one blade ghost left.
WHEEK!
“Crazy! Where the hell is this kid!”
Leaving Yong Dae-hoon’s screams behind, Wang Gu-ho ran into the building that was almost collapsing due to the battle.
And a moment later, Wang Guho walked out of the building carrying a woman with an injured leg. In that moment, the building behind him collapsed like a movie.
Citizens and police officers who saw the sight cheered.
“Wow, wow, wow!”
“Long live the golden giant!”
Wang Guho blushed in embarrassment. He took the injured woman to the police and returned to where the Team 6 members were gathered.
And then I got slapped.
Crack!
“This crazy kid!”
Team Leader Yong Dae-hoon glared at Wang Gu-ho with a grin. He had to deal with the last remaining blade ghost instead of Wang Gu-ho, and there were several small scars carved into his body.
“Who is moving around on their own in the middle of a battle!”
Wang Guho, who had solved
“I’m sorry. I heard the voice of the injured person…”
“Huh? You’re quite the hero. Rescuing civilians is more important than your comrades? What if someone dies because of you?”
It is true that Wang Gu-ho was wrong, but Yong Dae-hoon’s story was also excessive.
The scene was already almost completely cleared up. It was absurd that they couldn’t deal with a dying Blade Ghost just because one Wang Gu-ho was missing.
Wang Guho also knew about it and took action.
“There’s only one monster left···.”
“Shut up! If you’re going to keep doing that, work alone. Don’t bother the other teams.”
Although he had a lot to say, Wang Guho lowered his head.
“···I’m sorry. I’ll be more careful in the future.”
I knew that no matter what I said, it wouldn’t make sense.
It’s been like this for the past three months. Team Leader 6 was displeased with himself, so he would find fault with even the smallest things and start a fight.
And every time, Wang Gu-ho endured it. His innate personality did not change easily, and he did not want to cause trouble for no reason and harm the entire team.
‘I just have to endure it.’
Yong Dae-hoon laughed at Wang Gu-ho, who was bowing his head.
“Huh. Okay, then have your support team clean up the scene. We’ll go back first.”
Wang Gu-ho muttered to himself as he looked at Yong Dae-hoon and the 6th team’s superhumans who were turning around and leaving.
“···If you were the team leader, you wouldn’t have gotten angry over something like that, right? No, you would have noticed it before me and saved the person first···.”
Wang Gu-ho recalled what the great man had said before he left.
For the past three months, those words have never left my mind.
‘When I’m not around, you’re the team leader of Team 7. So do a good job.’
“Team Leader. I don’t know if I’m doing well···.”
Today, Wang Gu-ho was even more annoyed and missed the absent Dae-in.
***
After completing his mission, Wang Guho returned to the guild.
As soon as he entered the guild building, many people immediately acknowledged Wang Guho.
“Hello, Wang Gu-ho!”
“Oh, it’s the golden giant!”
“Rescue! Did you return from your mission?”
I also saw other team superhumans I had become close with over the past three months, people working in the building, and reporters hanging around the guild.
“Oh, yes. Hello! Hello! Excuse me. I have to go up…”
Wang Gu-ho, who had been greeting everyone individually, was finally able to pass through the building lobby and get on the elevator after 30 minutes.
“Phew···.”
Wang Guho honestly felt that the attention from so many people was both nice and burdensome.
“How did I···.”
Suddenly, I looked into the elevator mirror and saw a young man standing there who looked completely different from a few months ago.
His shoulders were broad and his physique had become sturdy. His eyes were still timid, but when you look at his body, he was now comparable to anyone in the guild.
It wasn’t just his body that changed. The public’s perception of Wang Gu-ho also changed completely.
Wang Gu-ho shivered as he recalled the special article that had appeared in the Monthly Superman magazine some time ago.
“I’m one of the top 5 tankers in Seoul. That’s ridiculous…”
Since the article came out, interest in the area has been growing even more heated.
Most of the interest was positive. Other team leaders in the guild wanted to bring Wang Gu-ho to their teams, and so did other guilds.
Wang Gu-ho has received over thirty scouting offers in the past month alone, including some with huge salary offers.
But Wang Guho rejected all the offers. The reason was simple.
“I like Team 7. And if I go to another team… I’ll be killed by that team leader.”
Everyone’s reaction was that they couldn’t understand.
Because most people in the industry thought, ‘The landlord is already dead.’
But Wang Guho was sincere. He didn’t want to go to another guild, another team, and he didn’t want to be beaten to death by the person who would come back someday.
Ding dong!
When he got off the elevator and returned to the guild office, Baek Young-hee was waiting for him while handling some work.
“Sir, how was your mission?”
“Ah···. It was the same as usual.”
At first, it felt suffocatingly awkward to be alone with such a beauty, but now we can have a pretty natural conversation.
Baek Young-hee frowned with a knowing expression.
“I heard. You got slapped in the face by Team Leader Yong? Did you just sit there and do nothing about it?”
“That’s because I was the one who made a mistake first.”
Wang Gu-ho scratched his head and answered. Baek Yeong-hee sighed softly and said.
“Don’t be so patient. That’s why you keep picking on me.”
“Oh, I’m fine···.”
“It’s okay, what’s okay? Anyway, the problem is that Mr. Goo is too kind.”
Wang Guho said with a gloomy expression.
“Honestly, I don’t know. Why does Team Leader Yong hate me so much? The other team leaders are all so kind…”
After Daein and Lily went on vacation, Team 7, with Wang Guho alone, went out as a ‘support team’ to accompany other teams on missions.
During this time, Wang Gu-ho was able to grow more quickly as a tanker by working with various superhumans.
Most of the other team leaders of the White House Guild were kind to Wang Gu-ho.
Except for Team 6 Leader Yong Dae-Hoon.
“Well, I’m jealous.”
Baek Yeong-hee said with a confident expression. Wang Gu-ho said with a puzzled expression.
“Jealousy? Me? …Why?”
Wang Gu-ho’s expression, which said he had no idea what was going on, was so funny that Baek Yeong-hee burst out laughing.
“Well, he’s a tanker in the same position as you, but he’s much younger and he’s a super rookie that every guild is paying attention to, right?
“Huh? Lies···.”
Wang Gu-ho did not seem happy about the compliments, but instead looked around as if he was looking for a hidden camera.
Baek Young-hee said.
“It’s all true. So it’s understandable that some people would be jealous. Wang Guho is incredibly famous now.”
dump.
Wang Gu-ho, who had collapsed on the sofa, muttered with a face that looked like it was on the verge of fainting.
“It’s all because the team leader isn’t here···.”
If there had been a great man, and if there had been Lily, then his presence would not have been revealed.
It was too burdensome.
I wanted to be famous, but it was really hard to get everyone’s attention all by myself.
Baek Young-hee sat down in front of him and grumbled.
“Where on earth is this person and what is he doing···.”
There were only three people in the White House Guild who didn’t think the man was dead.
Baek Young-hee was one of them. She grumbled, pursed her lips.
“You must be late because you’ve been playing around somewhere. When you get home, you really won’t be left alone!”
Wang Gu-ho, who did not have the courage to do the same thing, decided to cheer her on.
“···Please scold me for my share too!”
“Of course!”
The two nodded to each other, feeling a strange sense of camaraderie. Wang Guho, who felt a little comforted, stood up from his seat.
“Then I will go train.”
I had a plan to train with Minjae in the afternoon.
Minjae, who recently became a trainee superhuman in the guild, has been working day and night to become a full-fledged superhuman.
Baek Young-hee smiled brightly at the welcome name.
“Please tell Sirutteok, no, Minjae-ssi, to work hard. And···”
Baek Young-hee said with a smile.
“Don’t feel too burdened, Mr. Wang Gu-ho. You are already doing a good job as the acting team leader.”
“···Yes. Thank you.”
Wang Gu-ho nodded and got on the elevator, leaving Baek Yeong-hee behind. He felt a little better.
‘When I’m not around, you’re the team leader of Team 7. So do a good job. If you get screwed, everyone else gets screwed.’
Thinking back on the man’s words, Wang Guho forced himself to straighten his shoulders.
