Episode 91 Lv. 100 (2)
I could hear Jeon Se-hyeok chuckling from the other end of the phone.
As Kang-hoo waited for an answer without any particular response, Jeon Se-hyeok immediately coughed and continued speaking.
– Coincidentally, I got the same call from Seyoung. I was looking for a place to work anyway.
“Please only do it when you have time. There is no need to push yourself too hard.”
Since he was the one making the request, Kang-hoo spoke to Jeon Se-hyeok as carefully as possible.
Now, if he is considerate, it is a favor, not something you take for granted.
Because Jeon Se-hyeok didn’t owe anything to him. The relationship between him and himself was equal.
– No. I happen to have a spare dungeon among the ones I own. However.
“but?”
– This dungeon is one that Seyoung can’t go into alone. I was planning on finding a party member anyway.
“That’s a good thing.”
– Since I own the dungeon under another person’s name, it would probably be strange to search it using an external database.
“Well, that’s a common thing.”
Kang-hoo said it nonchalantly.
Owning and renting dungeons under someone else’s name is a common practice, as dungeon ownership is taxed.
Would any Hunter want to pay taxes when they receive no help from the Hunter Police Department?
So, a trick that took advantage of the fact that owning up to two dungeons per person was exempt from tax became widespread.
No, those who didn’t use tricks were treated like fools. The Hunter Police Department didn’t crack down on them in depth.
– First, you need to come down to Busan.
“Aren’t you an intruder?”
– I think Seyoung will be really happy if you come. Please come down first. I’ve given up the loot.
“I think you have to pay your own price.”
– It’s worth coming. Come and listen to the story and you’ll understand why.
“Okay. Then I’ll contact you again when I leave for Busan Station on the KTX.”
– Is it today?
“Yes. I will contact you before departure.”
– Okay. See you soon.
The call is over.
It felt like everything was going smoothly.
I don’t know what kind of dungeon it is, but judging from the fact that he said he paid a price just for coming here… … .
It seems like this dungeon doesn’t have a minimum number of people, but rather a place where you must have two or three people.
Anyway, I thought it turned out well.
With level 100 just around the corner, I wanted to reach my goal as quickly as possible.
* * *
Inside the KTX heading to Busan Station.
Kang-hoo looked out the window at the pouring rain and thought back to his fight with Jeon Jong-du.
The battle with him was one that I could reminisce about more and more. It was also a very meaningful event.
It was not surprising that the entire Osho mercenary group surrendered upon confirming Jeon Jong-du’s death.
Because subduing a level 350 hunter is by no means an easy task.
Even Jeon Jong-du was a physical hunter, the type that was most difficult to take life from.
Usually, these hunters are good at enduring, so it is not easy to kill them, and they often miss.
However, since he was helpless against Kang-hoo, everyone thought of Kang-hoo as being much better than Jeon Jong-du.
That way it makes sense.
‘Of course, just because you beat Jeon Jong-du doesn’t mean you can beat any other level 350 hunter.’
Kang-hoo was not proud.
Level can be a ‘reference indicator’, but it cannot be an ‘absolute indicator’ because there is something called variable.
Jeon Jong-du had a hasty personality and did not have the wisdom to endure his persistence.
I was convinced that if Jeon Jong-du had been a little smarter and thought more deeply, the results would have been different.
‘But it’s also true that I’m using this body well beyond its limits.’
But I was wary of pride.
Kang-hoo didn’t forget to praise himself either. There’s no need to say that something great is not great.
On the one hand, I thought it was a good thing that I possessed Shin Kang-hoo’s body.
If he had possessed the body of Jeon Jong-du or another villain, the subsequent design would have become much more complicated.
This is because there were many characters whose flaws were so obvious that it was difficult to solve them even with the knowledge I had.
In that respect, the character of ‘Shin Kang-hoo’ was a complete character and at the same time a character that was growing rapidly.
Moreover, ‘Congenital Mana Hypersensitivity’ was a huge handicap, but it was also the best tool to increase one’s potential to infinite levels.
‘Once I reach level 100, I definitely have to meet Master K through Jeong Yu-ri.’
I have a lot of questions about Master K and I would like to meet him.
At the same time, I thought it would be a good idea to create a place for it since there was a good bridge called Jeong Yu-ri.
In addition, there was the problem of replenishing Mad Solarkirium, whose holdings had suddenly decreased to two.
I know of a few places in North Korea where there are Mad Solarkid, but I don’t have access, so the process was complicated.
The current North Korean territory is not one that can be accessed by just anyone; permission is required.
Of course, there were quite a few hunters who roamed North Korean territory without permission.
However, they had no protection under international law and no way to appeal if they suffered any disadvantage.
So, as it was like risking one’s life, defecting to North Korea without permission was not recommended.
Kang-hoo called Jeong-yu-ri.
I was about to hang up after not answering the phone even after ten rings when she answered the phone in a hoarse voice.

– Huh?
“I guess you were sleeping.”
– Okay, it’s okay. I just kept my eyes closed.
“Why don’t you just wipe away the drool and stop lying?”
– Churp.
Kang-hoo chuckled at Jeong Yu-ri’s innocent reaction.
It’s not like she’s particularly funny or interesting, but there are times when she makes me smile.
Perhaps it is the pure and clean spirit that only she possesses that exerts an invisible influence.
– what’s the matter?
“If it’s okay, can I meet Grandpa? There are things I want to buy and things I want to talk about.”
– Grandpa? That’s not hard. I’m sure Grandpa will like whoever I bring.
“Did you know that I am your grandson-in-law?”
– No! That’s not it! I’m just saying that Grandpa would be happy to see his granddaughter’s face once, using that as an excuse!
“Then please arrange a meeting.”
– Yeah, I got it! But what are you doing now?
“I’m on my way to Busan.”
-Why Busan?
“Let’s play.”
– You lie without a second of hesitation.
“I know.”
– Okay, I got it! I’ll contact Grandpa and get back to you!
“Please.”
It’s a picture of things going smoothly. There’s a lot I want to find out and hear from Master K.
Thud, thud, thud. Thud, thud.
Raindrops that had grown heavier before we knew it were pounding against the train windows, obscuring our view.
Inside the cabin, there weren’t many passengers.
Kang-hoo leaned back slightly on his chair and closed his eyes. Time would pass quickly once he arrived in Busan.
* * *
After the call with Kang-hoo.
Jeong Yu-ri immediately called Master K.
Master K is notorious for not being able to communicate with others, but he was an exception when it came to his granddaughter, Jung Yu-ri.
That’s right. I answered the phone.
– Yeah, Yulia.
Rate. Rate.
It was Master K’s nickname for his granddaughter, Jeong Yu-ri. Jeong Yu-ri also liked being called that.
“grandfather!”
– Yeah. Okay. Did you eat well?
“I’m going to eat now! I think I’ll order pizza today!”
– You ate pizza yesterday too… … . You also eat healthy food. You’re such a picky eater.
“Hey, I got it, Grandpa! Oh! I just wanted to contact you to tell you something!”
– What is it?
“You know Mr. Jeong Seon-gyu, right? He’s my older brother Seon-gyu.”
– Are you talking about the guy who pulled you out of Ground Zero while you were wandering around?
“Um… … . It’s a bit harsh, but it’s true!”
Jeong Yu-ri blushed.
When she said she didn’t want to come out of Ground Zero, Master K didn’t stop her.
He said that the choice and responsibility were entirely his. He also said that he did not want to forcefully take away only the shell of his granddaughter.
In fact, he and his grandmother also gave all decision-making authority to Jeong Yu-ri.
Because it was my belief that my own destiny was something I chose for myself and that I was infinitely responsible for it.
However, I secretly hoped that my granddaughter’s life as a hermit would end soon, and my wish came true.
The trigger was none other than Kang-hoo.
– So why that guy?
“My brother wants to see Grandpa. He said there are things he wants to buy and things he wants to ask.”
– me?
“Yes. He said he really wanted to see me.”
– Are you planning to bring her here to be your grandson-in-law?
“Ah! That’s not it!”
Jeong Yu-ri blushed.
Aside from that, it was true that Jeong Yu-ri had some degree of romantic interest in Kang-hoo.
It was not strange for young men and women to be attracted to each other because of their looks and personalities.
– What did that boy look like to you?
“You seem like a person with a lot of hidden stories. Your eyes are deep and sad. Like someone who has embraced all the pain in the world.”
– Are you a patient? Pharmacists often make that kind of expression.
“……grandfather.”
This was a common reaction from Master K, who handles a lot of sedative and narcotic plants, including solarium.
– Okay. Since my granddaughter is the person I’m going to introduce to you, I guess I should have some basic trust in her.
“He may seem a bit unlucky on the outside, but he is someone who has really helped me a lot.”
– Okay. That’s fine. Call me before you come. If you call about 6 hours in advance, there should be no problem meeting.
“Wow! Thank you, Grandpa!”
– If you’re short on money, tell me. If you need a dungeon, tell me. I’m hanging up. A guest has arrived.
“yes!”
After hanging up the phone, Jeong Yu-ri kept kissing her smartphone, which somehow felt like it had her grandfather’s warmth.
My grandfather and grandmother were always such wonderful people who supported and encouraged me.
Jeong Yu-ri didn’t want to disappoint those two people any longer.
Pulling the reins of growth again as a hunter. That was the goal and passion that Jeong Yu-ri was dreaming of now.
I got permission from my grandfather that was practically a free pass.
All that’s left is to go to Ground Zero when Kang-hoo’s time comes. That’s it.
* * *
Meanwhile, at that time.
Just as the KTX was passing through Gimcheon-Gumi Station, Kang-hu woke up to a commotion.
It wasn’t that the room was noisy, but the message window that was displayed only to Kang-hoo was a mess.
Because the competition between the constellations was just beginning.
As I scrolled up the message window, I saw something that seemed to be the source of the noise.
Those were the words of the Dimension Robber.
【No matter how much you dream of the main constellation, there is something called rank in this place. Don’t you know?】
【It is the contractor’s free will to change the main constellation. It is not a place where I can just sit there and trample on your dirty butt for a long time.】
The one who fought back was the constellation, the strategist of the wilderness. The clash between the two constellations had been predicted for a long time.
Right then.
【A bitch who steals other people’s scraps. A bitch who dresses up her fantasies as strategies. Both are pathetic.】
Catastrophe – There were traces of darkness ‘engaging’ in this war.
The conflict between the constellations was more heated than expected.
