Trait Absorption Hunter Hunter 181
181. Night of the Vampire
“Haaaaaam.”
Hong Se-yeon opened her eyes and looked around.
Her pupils, which had been blinking sleepily, dilated in an instant.
“Eek!”
She kicked the blanket away, startled by the unfamiliar surroundings.
‘Hey, where am I?’
Why am I sleeping in an unfamiliar place?
Min Do-jun approached her as she was wandering around after getting off the sofa.
“Did you sleep well?”
“Huh! Mr. Do, Dojun?”
Min Do-jun’s eyebrows furrowed involuntarily when he saw her looking flustered.
“You don’t remember, do you?”
“Huh? What, what is it? By the way, where is this? Is this Do-jun’s house… … .”
“Ha, right.”
Min Do-jun, who was pressing his temples to suppress his anger, explained what happened yesterday.
“Huh? Is this Dojun’s guild?”
“Yes. When I told you to go home, didn’t the guild leader make a fuss saying he wanted to go see it?”
“Me, me?”
“… … .”
“I’m sorry. I remember drinking at the Japanese restaurant, but after that… … .”
“Guild leader, you shouldn’t drink alcohol. Especially not with men.”
Hong Se-yeon bowed her head deeply.
Not only did he throw a tantrum about wanting to see the guild, he even got drunk and fell asleep.
And with another man, too.
‘Seo, surely Dojun didn’t do anything strange?’
As if he was thinking that, Min Do-jun hit the player.
“I’m saying this just in case, but I only covered you with a blanket and didn’t touch the guild leader’s hair even a little. Please don’t misunderstand.”
“Ah, yes… … .”
I felt relieved when I heard that, but why did my pride feel hurt for some reason?
‘Me, am I not attractive as a woman?’
Hong Se-yeon, who was thinking such useless thoughts, came to her senses with an ‘Oops’.
“Hey, what time is it now?”
“It’s 8 o’clock in the morning.”
“Ah! I think I’m crazy. I introduced the dungeon to Dojun and didn’t even reserve a ticket… … .”
“Should I just go to the destination written on the file?”
“yes that’s right.”
“I already made a reservation. The ten o’clock flight to Moscow.”
“Ah… … That’s a relief.”
Hong Se-yeon breathed a sigh of relief and apologized again.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t pay attention to you.”
“It’s okay. Just don’t go somewhere and drink alcohol.”
“Yeah, I will do that.”
Hong Se-yeon answered with a flushed face and quickly left the office with Min Do-jun.
“Are you going straight to the airport?”
“yes.”
“Is that all you have?”
Min Do-jun was holding a shopping bag containing a change of clothes.
“I’ll just go through the dungeon and come back, so I just need a change of clothes.”
“That’s true.”
Hong Se-yeon nodded and spoke to Min Do-jun, who was waiting for a taxi.
“If it’s okay, can I come with you? I’d like to be your guide… … .”
“If you’re worried about getting lost, that’s okay. I’ve been to Russia a few times.”
“Oh, really?”
“Yes. I also speak some Russian.”
Although he knew how to do it skillfully, Hong Se-yeon seemed surprised by just that.
“Wow, that’s amazing.”
“But do you really not remember anything after the Japanese restaurant?”
“Yes. Why? Did something happen?”
“It’s nothing.”
Looking at her innocent eyes, it seems she doesn’t even remember coming to the Overlord Guild.
‘There’s no point in finding out.’
Soon after, a taxi arrived and Hong Se-yeon waved her hand with a worried look on her face.
“Take care on your way. If anything happens, contact me.”
“Yes. Don’t worry and go home. Oh, and make sure to sober up before you go.”
“Ah, yes… … .”
As Min Do-jun got into a taxi and disappeared, Hong Se-yeon let out a long sigh.

“What about my image?”
I drank alcohol for no reason like Min Do-jun and ended up showing him a bad side.
“You couldn’t even buy the ticket in advance. You’re just causing trouble by getting drunk for no reason… … .”
I felt more sorry than ashamed.
“This isn’t enough to repay you. I’ll have to introduce you to a proper dungeon next time.”
A faint smile appeared on her lips at the thought of seeing Min Do-jun again.
* * *
Min Do-jun, who left for Russia in first class at 10 o’clock, sat down in his seat.
‘Let’s get some more sleep.’
Since I had to stay on the plane for a full 9 hours, I had to get some sleep to avoid getting bored.
Min Do-jun, who ate a course meal featuring foie gras as an in-flight meal while sleeping and then fell asleep again, was able to arrive at Domodedovo International Airport, the largest in Moscow, after a 9-hour flight.
‘It’s not easy to last 9 hours.’
Although there were no physical problems, it must have been quite difficult mentally.
‘Should I have come riding on a ghost wolf instead?’
If you ride the Ghost Wolf, which travels at 3,000 km/h, you can get from Korea to Moscow in just 2 hours.
‘No. I’m not going secretly. I’m officially going to conquer an overseas dungeon, so I have to leave my mark.’
Min Do-jun went through immigration procedures and left the airport.
‘It took 9 hours and it’s still broad daylight here.’
Because of the time difference, it is only 1pm in Moscow, unlike in Korea where it is 7pm.
Min Do-jun, who had caught a nearby airport taxi, spoke in fluent Russian.
“Please take me to Chekhov.”
“Oh, I understand, sir.”
The taxi driver, who knew I was a tourist and was about to haggle down the price, had to give up his plan when he heard my pronunciation, which was just as good as that of a local.
‘Even if I can’t do it, I’m someone who has lived in this neighborhood for three years.’
Min Do-jun, who was looking out the window and admiring the scenery regardless of whether the taxi driver misunderstood or not, was able to arrive at his destination in an hour.
‘Is this it? The assembly point.’
As Min Do-jun approached, the nine hunters who had been waiting turned their gazes at once.
Among them, the largest foreigner approached Min Do-jun with a cheerful face.
“Are you Hunter Min Do-jun?”
“yes.”
“Hello. My name is Anthony Gilbert, and I am the leader of this raid.”
Although he was speaking in English, Min Do-jun noticed that the other person was British.
Not only was the pronunciation British, but more than anything, it was because he seemed to have a weak point.
‘Level 3,552. You’re a tank.’
“My level is 3,552. I am a mid-level player in the party, but I am assigned to be the leader as a tank.”
Usually, the person with the highest level takes the lead, but if there is a tank, the role is left to the tank.
After all, a tanker who stands at the forefront would be the best fit to act as a leader.
“Oh, do you not speak English?”
“No, I can do it.”
“Oh, that’s great. Whenever I have Asians as party members, communication problems always become a problem, but now I don’t have to worry about that anymore. Hahaha!”
Min Do-jun looked at the party members standing far away.
‘Am I the only Asian?’
Min Do-jun turned his gaze back to Gilbert.
There was something he had always been curious about.
“Gilbert, you accepted me as a party member even though you knew my level was low. Why is that?”
Hong Se-yeon said that it was because she was in no position to be picky about whether something was hot or cold, but that alone was not enough.
“Haha, why? Would you believe me if I told you I was your fan?”
“yes?”
“I saw a YouTube video. The one where they stop the dungeon break in Hongdae. It was really great.”
“ah…….”
Are you saying that you fell in love with his power?
I thought so, but it wasn’t.
“Everyone must have been amazed by the Hunter’s power, but I was surprised by something else.”
“which……?”
“Nearly a hundred monsters were all looking at you, Hunter. Their eyes turned red as if they had been provoked in a wide area.”
It seems to be talking about the howling of a ghost wolf.
“I don’t know how you did it, but as a tanker, I can’t help but envy you. If it were me, I would have only attracted about 30 people at most.”
Gilbert asked point-blank.
“Area provocation skill. Do you have it?”
Min Do-jun shook his head.
“I had it then, but I don’t have it now.”
If you say you have it, they might ask you to try it.
That’s why it was a lie.
‘If I say yes, I feel like I’m going to be left with some annoying task.’
As expected.
Gilbert looked regretful.
“Oh. That’s too bad. If I lost the aggro, I was hoping that Min Do-jun would take the lead for the rest… … .”
‘This kid. He was planning on making me a sub tank.’
It was fortunate that he said he didn’t have a provocation skill.
Didn’t you almost show me a ghost wolf if you were careful?
‘I guess they must have made excuses for refusing it.’
Anyway, Gilbert looked very disappointed when he heard that there was no provocation skill.
“There’s nothing you can do. Hunter, you just have to do your best as a dealer.”
“All right.”
“Then come this way. I will introduce the members who will be joining us.”
Min Do-jun followed Gilbert to where the party members were.
“Let’s say hello. This is Hunter Min Do-jun, who recently joined the team. This is… … .”
Gilbert introduced them one by one, but there was no need to do so.
Because all the information needed to detect weaknesses was visible.
‘Information on all 9 people including the leader is displayed.’
Judging by the fact that everyone seemed to have a weakness for him, it seemed like no one in the party was stronger than Min Do-jun.
‘The US, the UK, France, India. What a diverse group of people from all over the world.’
The funny thing is that none of these nine people are actually Russian.
‘Is this the dungeon that even Russian hunters have given up on?’
It was a terrifying dungeon where if you filled it with 10 gardeners, at least one person would definitely come out dead. How scary would that be?
‘Anyway, judging from the look in their eyes, they don’t seem to like me very much.’
The reason became clear quickly.
“Leader. Is this Japanese person the Hunter who came in place of the healer?”
“I’m Korean, not Japanese.”
“Anyway, you’re not a healer, are you?”
“Yes. You came as a dealer.”
“A dealer… … If I keep going like this, I won’t have any experience left.”
The influence of tanks and healers in a party is enormous.
It is essential to hire one in dangerous high-level dungeons because the survival rate increases significantly when there is just one person.
In such a situation, a dealer who only takes experience points came in instead of a healer?
‘It’s bound to be seen as a thorn in the eye.’
“Hey. Are you sure you’re level 2,600?”
When Min Do-jun nodded to someone’s question, exclamations came out from all over.
“Oh my god… … . I never thought I’d be doing a dungeon with an A-rank at this level.”
“Why on earth is there such a thing as an S-class dungeon entrance ticket… … .”
“I don’t know if it would be better if it was a healer. A dealer who is 1,000 levels lower… … .”
The party members looked at Min Do-jun with disapproving eyes.
It was announced in advance that the new hunter joining was level 2,600 and would be entering the dungeon using an entrance ticket.
But when the announcement that seemed like a joke turned out to be true, I couldn’t help but feel dissatisfied.
In this situation, it was the leader’s job to calm the public sentiment.
“Okay, everyone. Don’t say anything embarrassing to the Hunter. Hunter Min Do-jun here may be low level, but he is a famous swordsman who has solo-killed S-class bosses and prevented A-class dungeon breaks. His skills have been proven.”
“Solo-killing an S-class boss? That must be a lie… … .”
“Honestly, isn’t it easy to stop a Class A dungeon break?”
“A swordsman? Even your profession is a problem?”
Gilbert was taken aback when the muttering continued despite his own defense.
On the other hand, Min Do-jun, the person involved, had a calm expression on his face.
‘I guess my popularity hasn’t spread to the whole world yet.’
If it became known that he had reached number one on the Infinite Tower, this kind of noise would die down, but it seemed like they didn’t know that yet.
‘Well, it will be known sooner or later.’
In fact, the later Min Do-jun became famous, the better.
Because they won’t pay much attention to your actions.
“Okay. Since we’re already party members, let’s think positively and go now.”
The hunters, led by Gilbert, put on their equipment and stood in front of the dungeon.
[Chekhov’s Vampire Night Dungeon]

“Let’s go.”
After a while, nine S-class hunters and one A-class hunter disappeared into the portal.
* * *
In the forest where darkness has settled.
Ten hunters appeared there.
“It’s always dark here when I come in.”
One of the hunters who had been here several times looked at Min Do-jun with a grin.
“Is this your first time?”
“yes.”
“Of course. Of course it’s the first time.”
Since I entered using an S-class dungeon entrance ticket, it had to be my first time.
The reality was different though.
‘You’re acting like this to me, who’s already conquered it dozens of times before returning… … How ridiculous.’
At that time, I couldn’t show that I was a regressor, so I just laughed inside.
‘… … !’
Life was detected.
It was a murderous intent directed at oneself and no one else.
