Gulp.
Wang Guho swallowed his saliva with great nervousness.
Since the day I became a superhuman and went into my first battle, I wondered if I had ever been this nervous.
“Team leader… I’m sorry.”
In front of Wang Gu-ho, who was speaking with a sad face, the great man was staring at him with his arms crossed.
“Sorry? What?”
At the old man’s blunt expression, Wang Guho’s face darkened even more. And then the confession began.
“I should have led the team properly when the team leader was away. I’m acting like a fool again…”
The more he spoke, the smaller Wang Gu-ho’s voice became.
“I couldn’t complain when other teams ignored my team. Since I was a support team, I just stayed still even when my priorities were pushed back. I couldn’t even refuse when other teams asked me to make concessions…”
“Just keep going.”
The man looked at Wang Gu-ho with a pitiful expression. Wang Gu-ho lowered his head and continued to talk about what had happened over the past three months.
“···If I had just dealt with it properly back then, Min Jae-hyung wouldn’t have ended up like that.”
Wang Gu-ho, who had been speechless for a moment, raised his head again. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, which were large and distracting.
“Team Leader. What should we do with Min Jae-hyung?”
“I heard about the sirutteok story too. I heard you lost the use of your right arm?”
“yes···.”
“So you went crazy and destroyed Team 6?”
As he said that, the man chuckled.
I never imagined that this timid fool would do something like that, no matter how angry I was.
Wang Guho bowed his head again.
“I wasn’t in my right mind at the time… I’m sorry. I heard that the team leader had to pay a huge amount of settlement money because of me….”
As a result, the man was set to earn twice the amount of the settlement, but Wang Guho, who had just been released from the guild prison, did not know that.
‘Well, I don’t really need to say it first.’
Instead, the man was very colorful.
“Emma. If it weren’t for me, you would have been kicked out of the guild and had your superhuman status permanently revoked. Do you understand?”
“Thank you so much, Team Leader! I will pay you back even if it takes me a lifetime!”
Wang Gu-ho, who was bending his back at a 90-degree angle, was still shy.
“I see. That’s that…”
The man who had uncrossed his arms approached Wang Gu-ho with strides. At that moment, Wang Gu-ho tightly closed his eyes.
Dduk dduk!
At the same time, he instinctively
‘I’m definitely going to hit you.’
Wang Guho expected the man’s fist to fly. However, even though he closed his eyes and waited, the fist did not fly.
Instead,
“Wang Gu-ho. You’ve worked hard.”
“yes?”
Instead, the great man gave Wang Guho a light hug and patted his back.
“I heard you had a hard time being team leader while I was away. It looks like you’ve been training hard too. You’re great.”
Wang Gu-ho opened his eyes and looked at the man with a dumbfounded expression.
“···Team Leader?”
“why?”
“You’re not going to hit me?”
In that moment, the man’s expression distorted into a grim expression.
“Do you want me to hit you?”
“Oh, no. That’s not it… Th, thank you.”
Wang Gu-ho, who felt embarrassed for some reason, avoided the man’s gaze. The man released the hug, stepped back, and smiled softly.
“I know you’ve had a hard time, so why would I hit you? Hurry up and change your clothes. There are other people waiting upstairs.”
“Yes···. Hehe.”
The relieved Wang Guho released the stone and also collected the Geumgangdaeryeokgong.
“I’ll change my clothes and come back soon···.”
“Did you know how to say that, you idiot!”
As if he had been waiting for that moment, the man hit Wang Gu-ho on the back of the head.
Bam!
“Ouch!”
Wang Gu-ho, who had been hit on the back of the head, stretched out on the floor like a frog.
After a while, Wang Guho, holding the back of his head with both hands, looked at Daein with a resentful expression.
“Ugh… You said you weren’t going to hit me.”
The man said, shaking his hands.
“If you hit it hard, it won’t hurt.”
With the combination of the
“too bad···.”
“How dare you go too far. I just helped you clean up the mess you made. What? Why don’t you wake up? Get up!”
As the man thrust his fist forward, Wang Guho quickly stood up.
“rising!”
The man struck Wang Guho’s chest with his fist and said.

“This time, I’ll give you a special treat. Don’t let anyone else fool you like that again. Got it?”
It was a strange logic that he was the only exception. But for some reason, a wry smile escaped Wang Gu-ho.
“Hehe. Yes.”
Even though he was a good-for-nothing, there was no one who cared for him as much as he cared for others.
A benefactor who recruited him from the Black Hound Guild, who was treated like a loser, taught him how to use his abilities properly, and even taught him martial arts.
‘The team leader has really come back.’
Thanks to this, Wang Gu-ho was able to gain the burdensome reputation of being one of the ‘5 Supermen of Seoul’.
“That’s ridiculous. Hurry up and change your clothes. Everyone else is already here and waiting.”
“yes!”
As he went into his room to change clothes, Wang Guho thought.
‘Now that the team leader is back, many things will change from now on.’
That prediction was not wrong.
***
By the time the two arrived at the party venue, dressed to the nines, everyone else had already gathered.
Today is the WH-7 team’s landlord team leader and Lily’s return celebration party. All of the Team 7 staff members were gathered at the party venue.
“Congratulations, Team Leader!”
“Is it true that you went to the continent of Gaia and came back?”
“How was it? Tell me about it!”
Many people congratulated Daein as he arrived at the party venue with Wang Guho.
“Thank you. I appreciate it.”
The man looked around the party hall, greeting each person one by one.
I saw many familiar faces that I hadn’t seen in a long time.
Field support team members: siblings Cheon Il-nam, Cheon Yi-nam, and Cheon Seol-ah and their team members.
Reporter Park Young-bae, who never loses his kind smile.
Operator Chae Su-min, whose face it is difficult to see.
Even Baek Young-hee in a cocktail dress.
And on one side···.
“Isn’t this delicious? This too! Try this too!”
“Hmm. Earth food isn’t bad either.”
There was also a kid armed with a plate and fork, running around trying to conquer all the party food, and a legendary dragon.
“···Where is the place where accidents don’t occur?”
The man shook his head and walked to the center of the party. People’s eyes naturally followed his figure.
After a while, the man standing in the center of the party venue opened his mouth.
“Team 7. Sorry for being late.”
A voice filled with magical power resonated clearly throughout the party hall. The man who had everyone’s attention continued speaking.
“My vacation was too long, wasn’t it? As you all heard, I went to another dimension and came back.”
“······.”
No one blamed the man for coming back so late.
Everyone knew that he had ‘fallen into the gate leading to the continent of Gaia and barely made it back.’ It was a miracle that he had survived.
However, it was not that I had no regrets during that time. The man knew that very well.
“You must have had a hard time. Since there was no team leader in the newly established team, how much did the other teams ignore you? You must have been called to the support team and had to be careful about what they said… It’s obvious even without looking.”
“That’s right. We had a really hard time while you were gone.”
Starting with Baek Young-hee, the employees belonging to Team 7 nodded and said something one by one.
“I was really, really sad.”
“Team 6, those kids were so noisy!”
“Honestly, I felt so relieved when Wang Guho gave up.”
“That’s right, that’s right.”
People pouring out their pent-up sorrows.
The man waited until they had said everything they wanted to say before speaking.
“Now that I’m here, that won’t happen again. From now on, other teams will be watching us closely.”
It wasn’t just about confidence. People snickered at his natural tone of voice, as if he thought it would turn out that way.
Besides, the man did not return empty-handed.
“I brought you a gift on the way here. Everyone, take one.”
As the man nodded, Wang Gu-ho, who was standing next to him, put down the large box he was carrying on the floor.
Inside were magical items brought from the continent of Gaia.
etc.
Artifacts with minor functions that are not necessary for humans.
‘This is the best gift.’
However, if you distribute these items to your team members, they can increase their work capacity several times over.
“Oh my god. This is a magic item.”
“How did you get all this?”
“Please give us this precious thing···.”
“Can I really accept it?”
In response to the great gift-giving, the Team 7 staff members’ slight resentment melted away like snow.
And that wasn’t the end of it.
The man lifted his glass full of wine and said:
“I told the CEO that the whole team is on vacation tomorrow. Let’s eat and drink as much as we want today.”
The reaction was explosive.
““Ohhhh! Long live the team leader!””
The party started to really get exciting from then on. Everyone started talking and getting noisy, and the music got faster and faster.
When the Great One opened the cask of wine brought from the continent of Gaia, the atmosphere reached its peak.
“Let’s drink this today and pass out!”
“Wow! Team leader, you’re the best!”
“Party tonight~!!”
***
Baek Chang-soo, who arrived at the party late, entered with a bewildered expression.
“···Everyone looks excited.”
Half of them were passed out drunk, and the other half were shaking their bodies to the club music without even looking at the guild leader who had come.
“I heard from Younghee that it was a simple cocktail party···.”
The daughter who said that was shaking her body most dazzlingly in the center of the stage.
Baek Chang-soo muttered, “You seem to have been under a lot of stress lately,” and pretended not to see his daughter.
“Sir! Are you here?”
When I turned my head in the direction where the voice came from, Team Leader Lim was approaching.
“Mr. Representative, you should have a drink too.”
The man handed Baek Chang-soo a glass full of alcohol. Baek Chang-soo, who was a little awkward in the party atmosphere at first, took a sip and his eyes widened.
“What kind of alcohol is this? I’ve never tasted anything like it before.”
The man said with a grin.
“It’s a drink from another dimension. It’s something you can’t get even with money.”
Source: Dragon Lair.
It was a great man who brought a chest from the wine cellar of Abraxas.
“Would you like another drink?”
“Good!”
Baek Chang-soo’s face turned slightly red after drinking several glasses in a row. He smiled and said.
“Team 7 seems to be full of energy as soon as you return. Did you use some magic?”
“I sprinkled a lot of magical gifts.”
The two men looked at each other and laughed heartily. They chatted for a while, then the old man asked in passing.
“So what did Team 6 decide to do?”
“···I decided to accept it again.”
Baek Chang-soo’s expression looked a little lonely. The elder asked with a puzzled expression.
“It turned out well, right? Because the power vacuum I was worried about didn’t occur.”
“Well, I don’t know if it was a good thing. If the same thing happens again···.”
The man smiled and told me not to worry.
“Don’t worry. I can never betray you again.”
The six teams that had decided to withdraw from the guild decided to return to the guild this morning after Yong Dae-hoon brought them all to Baek Chang-soo and apologized to him.
Of course, there was a great man behind it.
‘Work like a dog at the White House from now on, and I’ll forgive you some of your debt.’
The ten superhumans, including Yong Dae-hoon, who had sworn on the
In the end, the White House’s power weakening that the Superhuman Association had hoped for did not happen at all.
The man said as he poured new wine into Baek Chang-soo’s glass.
“You know, sir, that other guilds are starting to seriously oppose us.”
At that moment, Baek Chang-soo’s eyes lit up sharply.
“How could I not know? When you are acting so blatantly.”
Even though his usual image was simple, Baek Chang-soo was not stupid.
I now knew fully well what purpose the other guilds had held their disciplinary committees for.
“···I’m really grateful to you. Next time, I won’t be fooled as easily as I was this time.”
The man nodded. With Baek Chang-soo and White House’s power, he wouldn’t be treated the same way twice.
‘But the other person isn’t someone you can just push away.’
After surviving the first disaster, Whitehouse began to outpace any other guild.
At a much faster rate than what humans have experienced in the future.
The problem was that other guilds began to feel threatened by this, and this kind of restraint would continue in the future.
‘Well, it’s not a big deal if there are a few flies swarming around.’
When you change the future, you inevitably encounter variables.
It was just something I had to fix again.
The plan was already in my head.
“Sir, I have something to tell you.”
“Please feel free to tell me anything.”
The plan is to make White House the best guild, and among them, to make 7 teams the strongest of all time.
While also catching flies.
The man said with a sly smile.
“Please give me a promotion.”
