110. Threatening phone calls
‘Ahn Gwang-hyun? My former colleague?’
A name that seems familiar.
Hwang Ui-cheol thought back on his memories carefully.
At that moment, buried memories from the past came back to me.
‘Could it be that assassin?’
There was a party member I often encountered while running dungeons in the past.
They were assassins, but they often had arguments because their opinions didn’t match up.
‘His name was Ahn Gwang-hyun.’
A madman who cut off his comrade’s wrist in a fit of anger, saying that he had meddled in the prey he had caught and stolen the item.
I never met him again after that, and I gradually erased him from my memories, but the name Ahn Gwang-hyun was the only one I remembered.
-You haven’t forgotten me, have you?
“I remember that crazy bastard who cut off his comrade’s wrist because he stole his share.”
-Ah, you remembered. You did leave a strong impression at the end, after all. But think about it. The monster I almost caught was eaten by some idiot with a low contribution. Wouldn’t your blood flow backwards?
“Let’s put the past behind us and where is our Da-yeon?”
Min Do-jun swallowed his saliva at Hwang Ui-cheol’s angry voice.
‘This is the first time I’ve seen the teacher this angry.’
But Ahn Gwang-hyun on the phone did not seem intimidated at all.
-Hehehe, if you speak with such a low voice, do you think I’m scared to speak?
“Answer me… … .”
-Before that, let me ask you first. Do you have the legendary sword?
“Answer me, you little shit!!!”
Everyone in the cafe looked up in surprise at Hwang Ui-cheol’s loud voice.
“Sir, it won’t do you any good to stand out. Calm down.”
“Hoo, hoo… … … .”
Despite Min Do-jun’s words, Hwang Ui-cheol could not calm down his excitement.
– Heh heh heh heh heh heh! That’s a very good reaction. As expected, kidnapping my daughter was an excellent choice.
“You bird… … .”
That was when.
-dad!
It was then that I heard the voice of my daughter, whom I had longed for so long.
“Dayeon!”
-Ah, Dad… … ! Heh, sob… … .
“Dayeon, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere? Daddy will be there soon… … .”
-Okay, now that we’ve confirmed life or death… … .
The call subject changed back to Ahn Gwang-hyun.
-Shall we talk about business now?
“Ahn Kwang -hyun…
– Let me repeat the question I asked earlier. Do you have the legendary sword? It would probably be good to have it. If you don’t want to see your daughter get hurt.
“You little punk, if you touch even a single hair on our Da-yeon, I will definitely break your balls… … .”
-Oh, oh. Are you stupid or still not aware of the situation? Then I need to make you realize it.
Ahn Gwang-hyun said in a cool voice.
-Guys, just cut off one of that girl’s fingers.
-yes!
A scream was heard over the phone, followed by an answering voice.
-Gyaaaah!
“No, stop!
-Stop.
A faint sobbing sound is heard.
It wasn’t hard to guess what the situation was.
-Hehehehe… … . If I had been just a little bit later, I would have been cut off.
“You bird… … .”
-I’ve been generous and forgiving up until now, but you’d better be careful with your words and actions from now on. That is, if you want your daughter to be safe.
“Ugh… … .”
Hwang Ui-cheol had no choice but to swallow his breath.
It finally dawned on me that my daughter’s life was in their hands.
-Okay. I guess you’re finally listening.
“What do you want?”
-I thought you were going to listen to me, but you didn’t even listen to what I said. I told you earlier, and now you’re asking what you want. This is ridiculous.
“You mean the legendary sword? Yes. I have it.”
-Kuhaha, you’re being honest. Well, I knew that. You’re the only hunter who met the association president.
“Call the place. I will give you the sword you want. But don’t touch our Da-yeon even a little bit. If you hurt her even a little… … .”
-Ah. Don’t worry about that. From now on, I won’t go near your daughter. There’s no way I’ll damage the items while trading.
Hwang Ui-cheol bit his lower lip at the remark that treated his daughter like an object.
-I’ll grant your request, but I’ll ask you one thing in return. No, maybe it’s a warning?
“… … .”
– Tomorrow at 3 AM, come alone to the meeting place that I will text you. If I find out that you have brought even one ant, whether it be a government official hunter, fellow hunter, police officer, or association, I will immediately tear your daughter to pieces and run away, so make a good decision. Do you understand?

“……I get it.”
As soon as I answered, the call was disconnected.
“f*ck!”
Hwang Ui-cheol banged on the table and covered his face with both hands.
“ha…….”
A feeling of despair came rushing in like a tidal wave.
“teacher…….”
Min Do-jun, who had heard the conversation to some extent, asked cautiously.
“Are you really going to hand over the legendary sword?”
“Isn’t that obvious? My daughter is being held captive!”
Hwang Ui-cheol’s unusually excited appearance was very unfamiliar to Min Do-jun.
“Who will listen, sir?”
“shit!”
Hwang Ui-cheol, who had been unable to control his anger, let out a deep sigh and eventually burst into tears.
“Hehehe… … . Dayeon, I’m really sorry. Because of me… … .”
Tears fell from my eyes as I thought of my daughter trembling with fear.
“I shouldn’t have been handling such a dangerous object… … Hehehe… … .”
“It’s not your fault, teacher. It’s all his fault.”
I tried to comfort him out of pity, but Hwang Ui-cheol’s tears would not stop.
At present, no comfort will reach Hwang Ui-cheol’s ears.
‘I never thought you’d kidnap Dayeon… … .’
Min Do-jun bit his lips tightly.
Now I understand what they mean by the operation being a success.
From the beginning, the Black Sea Guild was after not Hwang Ui-cheol, but his daughter.
‘I knew that even if I tortured the teacher, he wouldn’t give me the legendary sword. That’s why I kidnapped his daughter.’
It was a scheme devised after knowing the tendencies of his former colleague, Hwang Ui-cheol.
‘Damn it! I was so focused on protecting the teacher that I didn’t even pay attention to Dayeon.’
Originally, Min Do-jun planned to create an impersonator and then use this as an excuse to infiltrate the Black Sea Guild and destroy it internally.
‘But I didn’t know I would be the first to hit the player like this… … .’
Is it because there is still quite some time left until Hwang Ui-cheol is murdered?
To be honest, I was living a rather complacent life.
‘You said your name was Ahn Gwang-hyun, right?’
Min Do-jun, who remembered the kidnapper’s name, checked the rankings.
I don’t know for sure, but this guy is probably the master of the Black Sea Guild.
114th – Ahn Gwang-hyun (born 1972) – Level 2,455 (Class A)
‘You said you were once in the same party as the teacher, but the level is higher.’
The gap probably widened after Hwang Ui-cheol became a civil servant hunter.
Because civil servant hunters don’t have much time to hunt.
‘If you just look at the level, it’s similar to Kim Be-Dro. So… … .’
If you fight one-on-one, it is unlikely that Hwang Ui-cheol, who is level 2,020, will win.
‘Of course, you can’t judge skill by level alone. It varies greatly depending on characteristics. But… … .’
According to the circumstances, An Gwang-Hyeon is the master of the Black Sea Guild.
A person who is worthy of becoming the head of a guild will likely have considerable skills and characteristics.
‘Besides, there’s no guarantee that we’ll be able to fight one-on-one.’
If we mobilize all of our guild members to attack Hwang Ui-cheol, the result is obvious.
‘There’s no way they’ll let the teacher live.’
That’s probably why he told me to come alone.
To steal the sword and kill Hwang Ui-cheol.
‘If you go alone, it will probably be difficult to return alive.’
I think I finally understand now.
The reason why Hwang Ui-cheol was killed by the Black Sea Guild before returning.
‘It’s all because of the legendary sword… … .’
This incident happened because of the weapons entrusted to the association president.
Of course, there was the Black Sea Guild’s machinations behind it all, but in any case, it’s clear that it happened because of the sword.
‘It was Justin Walker from the beginning. It might have been a plot hatched by that bastard.’
It was incomprehensible that they entrusted a S-class weapon to Korea, which was not their home country.
‘Originally, it would have been a year and a half before the teacher was murdered. But it’s been brought forward like this… … .’
I couldn’t help but see that the future had changed because of Min Do-jun’s actions.
‘Is it because you killed Kim Be-Dro and destroyed the sect? Is that why you started working at the Black Sea Guild earlier than planned?’
That would be the most plausible hypothesis as of now.
‘Anyway, it’s dangerous for the teacher to go alone.’
When Hwang Ui-cheol stopped crying and calmed down to some extent, Min Do-jun opened his mouth.
“Are you really going alone? It might be dangerous… … .”
“… … I guess there’s no other way.”
Hwang Ui-cheol also knew.
That it would be difficult for someone like me, who was only level 2,020, to defeat Ahn Gwang-hyun and his men.
As a father, what wouldn’t I do if I could just protect my daughter?
‘Even if the place I enter is a pit of fire, I will protect my Da-yeon no matter what happens.’
Hwang Ui-cheol had already made up his mind.
He decides to give up the legendary sword and save his daughter.
Even if it means losing one’s own life.
“teacher…….”
“I know what you’re thinking.”
Hwang Ui-cheol looked at Min Do-jun.
“You want to help me, right?”
“Of course. Of course.”
“I’ll be blunt. I don’t need your help. You stay out of this.”
“teacher.”
“Not only you, but also Dayeon could be in danger.”
“But you know it’s dangerous to go alone, right? That guy, An Gwang-hyun, is no slouch either… … .”
“Yes, I know. He was a prominent figure even back in the old days, so it won’t be easy to beat him. He’s also 400 levels higher than me.”
“So, let me help you… … .”
“No. This is my problem. I can’t let it affect you.”
“Do you have any plan?”
“What’s the plan? I’m going to give you the sword and save Dayeon.”
“But they won’t back down easily… … .”
“I know. But I will do whatever it takes to protect Dayeon. Even if I die, if I can protect Dayeon, that’s enough for me.”
“… … .”
Min Do-jun remained silent for a while at Hwang Ui-cheol’s will to save his daughter even at the cost of his life.
‘Teacher, you are my savior. I have to help you.’
Min Do-jun did not even listen to Hwang Ui-cheol’s words that he did not need help.
This was my chance to repay the favor, so I was determined to help no matter what.
‘If we leave the teacher alone like this, he will be killed just like before the regression. We must prevent that.’
Min Do-jun’s revenge targets also included the Black Sea Guild Master.
It was natural for him to harbor feelings of revenge, as he was the enemy who killed his benefactor.
‘I have to kill that guy with my own hands.’
Min Do-jun broke the silence and opened his mouth.
“Teacher, why don’t you leave it to me? I will take responsibility and rescue Dayeon.”
“Dojun. As I said before… … .”
“Don’t tell me to get out of here. How can you ignore the person who saved your life when he needs help?”
“No. It’s dangerous. Stay out.”
“You may be dangerous, but I am not.”
“What does that mean?”
“It means I am stronger than you, teacher.”
“what……?”
Before Hwang Ui-cheol could say anything, Min Do-jun disappeared.
It uses invisibility.
“Can you see me?”
“……no.”
Hwang Ui-cheol couldn’t feel Min Do-jun’s presence.
If you don’t tell me, I wouldn’t know at all.
Hwang Ui-cheol did not know what it meant.
“It’s true that you are stronger than me… … .”
Not being able to detect transparency means your fighting power is lower than that of your opponent.
Hwang Ui-cheol quickly admitted that he was weaker than Min Do-jun.
“Yes. I know you’re strong. But how are you going to help me? If you’re thinking of following me secretly by turning invisible, then stop. If Angwanghyun’s fighting power is higher and he notices the invisibility, Dayeon will be in danger.”
“Well, I think differently. He may have been harsh in his speech, but he has the sword. Do you think he would harm Da-yeon? Even if I showed up, he wouldn’t run away, but would try to continue the deal somehow.”
“I don’t know. I can’t take risks for nothing.”
“I understand. Then what about this? What if I have higher fighting power than that guy? Then wouldn’t I be able to save Dayeon without being caught?”
“Mommy. You’re now level 1,700. No matter what, how can you defeat a hunter who’s over level 2,400… .”
“800 thousand.”
“what?”
“This is my current fighting power.”
“… … .”
Hwang Ui-cheol made a dumbfounded expression.
“At this level, even a level 2,400 hunter shouldn’t be able to do anything?”
