Episode 47 Benandi Forest (1) 20.01.18
47. Benandi’s Forest (1)
“Did I mishear that just now?”
Guild leader Hong Chae-yeon said in a cold voice.
“sorry…”
Woojinhyung just kept bowing his head and repeating that he was sorry.
“I’ll give you a chance to explain yourself. Just say something.”
Woo Jin-hyung’s head quickly rose at Hong Chae-yeon’s words.
“To be honest, he was really on a different level! To the point where I doubted if he was even the same person….”
“shut up!”
“Cough!”
Hong Chae-yeon kicked Woo Jin-hyung’s stomach without hesitation.
“I don’t want to hear it, so shut up…”
“sorry.”
Hong Chae-yeon seemed to be trying to show what the end of hysteria is.
But Woojinhyung quickly got up like a new soldier with military discipline and stood with his backpack on his back.
“Ha, Woojin hyung.”
“Yes, Guild Master.”
“I’ll get you more medicine, so increase your dosage.”
Woojinhyung’s face darkened at the suggestion to increase the dosage.
“But Guild Leader… we’re still barely keeping within the allowable limit you mentioned. If we increase the dosage any further, something might happen…”
-Tsk!
Hong Chae-yeon’s palm struck Woo Jin-hyung’s cheek.
“Does that side effect matter now? Can you take over Seoul if you can’t even defeat one Kang Hyun?”
“…”
“Stop complaining and do as you’re told. The Baddest Guild will soon be entering a C-rank dungeon. They’ll eat the guilds inside and strengthen their power.”
“All right.”
**
Two days later.
“Mr. Kang Hyun. It’s time.”
“Is it like that already?”
The day of the attack has finally dawned.
Kang Hyun came down to the underground parking lot to go to the dungeon.
“ha…”
A sigh bursts out at the same time.
I started to get annoyed when I saw a loud van that looked like it belonged in a rock band.
“Why don’t you just buy a new one?”
“But my artistic spirit is in it, so I can’t give it up easily.”
Anyu Seong managed to repair the van whose door was smashed.
In fact, the interior of the car was intact so it could have been repaired, but Kang Hyun, who had thought this was an opportunity to change the car, couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
“Let’s go.”
Han Jae-moon started the engine and the van with the word ‘BADASS’ written on it left the underground parking lot.
“Bro. Shouldn’t we give our van a name?”
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“That old car that my brother drives around in is called the Buntley No. 2.”
“Is that the same as this? And my Buntley 2 is still going strong?”
On the way to the promised place.
Kang Hyun and Ahn Yu-seong spent their time exchanging silly jokes.
“Jae-moon. Are you still far?”
“We have arrived.”
The van finally arrived at its destination and stopped.
“Thank you for your hard work. You can go now.”
“yes?”
“You have to go to the office and work?”
“yes…”
Han Jae-moon’s mouth sticks out in a grin at the order to immediately evacuate guests.
‘I want to see it too…’
Han Jae-moon promised to park his car nearby and come secretly to take a look.
“Okay, then let’s go.”
Kang Hyun, who had checked his clothes, opened the van door.
At the same time, camera flashes began to pour in from all directions.
“what?”
Kang Hyun was taken aback by the unexpectedly great hospitality.
‘I definitely heard that there would be reporters with Team Leader Shin Tae-gil…’
I didn’t know that this many people would gather and start filming in earnest.
The reporters thrust their cameras and microphones at Kang Hyun as if he were a celebrity appearing at a press conference.
“Please tell us your determination to participate in the C-rank dungeon raid!”
“Is it true that you cleared Deians’ lab by yourself?!”
“Do you own this van?!”

Kang Hyun, who had already attracted attention with his sudden participation in a guild with a unique name.
Plus, they showed up in a loud van, which really caught everyone’s attention.
“What’s all this fuss about you?”
“Hey, you’re good at it too, hyung.”
“Shit.”
Kang Hyun-i smiled and walked along the path that the safety officer had made.
Although only three people were moving, their presence overwhelmed everyone there.
“Thanks to Kang Hyun, I am having this experience.”
“Oh, I forgot. You were a vassal too, weren’t you?”
“no.”
Shin Sung-ah raised the corners of her lips slightly and walked more confidently.
In front of the dungeon, which was the destination, there were numerous capable people waiting.
They looked at Kang Hyun with curious eyes as he appeared with a commotion.
“Are those the Baddest or something guild?”
“What kind of butt is that?”
“Your attire is no different from that of a gangster.”
“They’re just attention seekers.”
When these people gathered together, the energy they secretly gave off made me feel a considerable sense of pressure.
“That’s interesting.”
Kang Hyun, who calmly accepted the momentum, smiled with satisfaction.
‘Are you saying these guys are the best in our country right now?’
These are all elites at the forefront of the dungeon.
Kang Hyun nodded with interest as he looked at the details.
“Mr. Kang Hyun. It’s been a while.”
As Kang Hyun stood at the designated location, a familiar face approached him.
“Mr. Choi Dong-woo. This is your first time since the meeting.”
Even at this moment, the cameras were moving frantically. The scene of Kang Hyun-i gently greeting Choi Dong-woo was broadcasted to the world in real time.
-There are only three people participating in the Baddest? That’s ridiculous. It’s not like we’re going on a picnic.
-Look at those guys’ outfits. What are they doing in those leather jackets?
-Looking at how you know Choi Dong-woo, it seems like you’re not just a rookie.
-I don’t know about that. Choi Dong-woo is originally famous for being sociable.
Chats were coming in at an incredible rate to the broadcasting station that was broadcasting live.
This reaction was the same not only domestically but also overseas.
A rookie suddenly appeared as if he had fallen from the sky. His appearance was completely different from what the other large guilds had shown so far, so he couldn’t help but attract attention.
“Nice to meet you.”
“It’s been a while.”
However, after Choi Dong-woo, Han Se-yeon, and other famous guild leaders approached Kang Hyeon and pretended to know him, people’s thoughts changed.
-What? Isn’t Han Se-yeon famous for being picky?
-I also greet the Black Knights of Immortality. ㄷㄷ…
-What is Kang Hyun’s real identity?
-Among them all, Han Se-yeon is pretty.
-Kang Hyun seems to be a gangster lol
Park Ho-yeon, the leader of the Hwa-ryong Guild, looked at the sight with displeasure.
“Huh, they’re all like waggling tails.”
Their intentions were clearly visible in Park Ho-yeon’s eyes.
“I guess he wants to recruit Kang Hyun to his guild.”
To be honest, the Baddest Guild was an organization of four people, so much so that it was embarrassing to even call it a guild.
A small club-like group that wouldn’t even have been permitted to exist if it weren’t for Shin Tae-gil.
There was no way those hyena-like guild leaders didn’t know that fact.
“Do you still think you can bring Kang Hyun into your guild?”
“That’s right. Tsk tsk. Treating that kind of guy nicely will only bring trouble. You have to hold him down really tight.”
No matter what Park Ho-yeon thought, it was clear that Kang Hyeon was the biggest concern today.
“Ah. Please pay attention.”
That was when.
People’s attention turned to the voice ringing out from the speaker installed in front.
“Nice to meet you. I am Shin Tae-gil, the leader of the Special Ability Management Team of the Republic of Korea.”
Shin Tae-gil was standing on a high platform in front of the people with abilities.
Although there were still many people with abilities who didn’t know him, Shin Tae-gil didn’t bother to answer their questions about him.
“I won’t make it long.”
Shin Tae-gil spoke calmly while receiving the gazes of over 200 capable people.
“The world is watching us.”
The world is watching.
It was a statement that contained a lot of meaning.
The capable people unknowingly tense their shoulders.
“I will not ask you to sacrifice yourself for the peace and well-being of your country.”
“…”
“Come back when you win. Come back!”
“…”
“Seize it all, wealth and fame, proudly.”
Kang Hyun smiled with satisfaction after hearing the speech.
‘Whoever wrote it, it was a very tasty speech.’
Wealth, fame, and even power.
Kang Hyun was ready to seize it all.
**
“Swish~ Haa. The air is nice.”
Kang Hyun took a deep breath as he entered the dungeon.
C-class dungeon ‘Benandi’s Forest’
As the name suggests, the dungeon was covered with thick trees.
Those with abilities who entered the dungeon gathered in the open space and prepared to move.
“Attention, please!”
People’s eyes turned to the suddenly heard loud voice.
Kang Hyun also looked towards where the sound came from, and saw Choi Dong Woo standing on a high rock.
“The attack will be carried out by guild unit as previously discussed.”
Each guild agreed to act individually.
The apparent reason was that there were many obstacles to moving in groups in mountainous terrain.
But everyone knows that behind the scenes, there was a power struggle between the guilds.
An unprecedented large-scale attack.
In fact, clearing the dungeon is a given.
What really mattered was who cleared the dungeon and gained fame.
“If a situation arises during the attack, shoot the flare gun (signal flare).”
“…”
“Once they see that signal, the other guilds will join them immediately as promised.”
The flare gun was something that came up in the last meeting.
It was a means of quick communication designed to allow for quick communication in dungeons where electronic devices could not be used.
In case of emergency, a red flare gun.
The core is a green flare gun.
The boss has a purple flare gun.
Each guild agreed that instead of working individually, they would immediately join up when someone fired a flare gun.
‘It’s a waste of time.’
Kang Hyun didn’t believe that this was a flare gun.
‘What if I don’t keep my promise in a dungeon where no records are left?’
The flare gun was actually just an excuse. Kang Hyun had given up on it from the start.
“… Lastly, please keep safety as your top priority. That’s it!”
As soon as the delivery was over, all the guilds dispersed.
“Should we go too?”
It was when the guilds were checking the direction they were moving and Kang-Hyeon was also about to move.
Choi Dong-woo, who had come closer before I knew it, started talking to me.
“Mr. Kang Hyun, how about moving with us?”
“Together? Hmm…”
Kang Hyun showed a look of concern at the suggestion to move together with the Association of Ability People.
“I already know your skills. But I don’t know what dangers there might be in a C-rank dungeon.”
Kang Hyun nodded after hearing Choi Dong Woo’s words.
“Then would it be okay if we hung out together for a day or so?”
“You can stay with me until the dungeon is over. Haha!”
Choi Dong-woo smiled warmly and laughed heartily.
After a while.
As Choi Dong-woo left, An Yu-seong approached.
“Brother. What is it?”
“what.”
“Didn’t we create a guild so we could move among ourselves?”
“That’s right. But it’s still a C-class. If you get excited wrong, you could end up dying in an unexpected way. Let’s just go for a day.”
“You are wise.”
Shin Sung-ah let out flattery that came from her heart.
**
Kang Hyun joins the Alliance of Ability Users.
He walked through the forest in silence for a while.
When I was getting bored because I kept hiking and nothing happened,
“Mr. Kang Hyeon.”
Shin Sung-ah spoke to Kang Hyeon.
“why?”
“There’s one thing I’m curious about.”
“What is it?”
“What does Bades mean?”
“What? You didn’t know until now?”
“yes.”
Shin Sung-ah answers with a confident expression.
Kang Hyun made a bewildered expression.
“Then why are you asking now?”
“I thought Kang Hyun would tell me first.”
Kang Hyun laughed at the absurd answer.
Shin Sung-ah, who had been carefully observing the reaction, opened her mouth.
“Maybe the butt… .”
“No. I said no!”
After that, Kang Hyun and his group continued to joke around.
The other ability users frowned at the sight of not even a hint of tension.
“What are those?”
“Do you think the dungeon is some kind of playground? It seems like the media didn’t give it much publicity.”
“The kids are being cheeky…”
On the surface, it seemed like he was frowning at Kang Hyun’s actions, but in fact, that wasn’t the case.
It was just an outward display of the displeasure they had secretly felt towards Kang Hyun.
A new guild.
A super rookie who has suddenly risen to stardom.
A somewhat playful guild name.
“It’s shameful to compare that kind of guy to our union leader.”
However, its status is so high that even Choi Dong-woo and Han Se-yeon are mentioned.
I couldn’t help but feel like there was nothing I liked about other people’s situation.
“Don’t worry about it.”
“You don’t care?”
“Then why are you taking out the mace?”
Kang Hyun-do, of course, didn’t like hearing people gossiping. However, he decided to take it easy.
‘I’ll press down on you with my skills.’
I decided to become the best so that no one can ignore me.
Such a petty reaction. I was confident that I could destroy it with just one demonstration of my power.
-Phew!
“The enemy!”
At that moment, Kang Hyun chuckled at the shouts coming from the front.
“let’s go.”
