Chapter 34
Chapter 34
ED: Cheerycheri
Kang Yoo-hyun could not respond to Park Yoon-sung’s slightly cold words. I didn’t think there would really be anyone who could deceive the SS-class and kidnap me, but… it might not be wrong to worry since there are a lot of crazy talented people in other countries like Park Yoon-sung said. Kang Yoo-hyun could not answer because he knew that as well.
“Excuse me, did you really make Kang Yoo-hyun’s house into a shared accommodation because of me?”
“That’s right.”
“Ha…”
“If you don’t like it, I have other options, but I don’t really recommend choosing them.”
“…What is it?”
I asked, his words felt a bit ominous. I wonder if those other options could even be worse than the current situation.
“You must live in an accommodation within the Odin Guild, and stay with at least three regular employees 24 hours a day. You must not be separated from them, and you cannot act alone. Even when you go to the bathroom…”
“Wait, please wait!”
However, my prediction was shattered. I can’t believe there’s a worse alternative than this. I already had a headache when I thought of guild employees who I didn’t even know flocking around me.
Seeing me holding my head, Park Yoon-sung looked at me as if he wanted to see me suffer like this. I immediately gave up.
“Just—I’ll stay here…”
That’s how I ended up living in the same space with crazy people. My head is throbbing.
“Hyung, are you okay?”
“Uh… What about your school?”
I asked Kang Soo-hyun, who was sitting next to me when he should have been at school. Then Kang Soo-hyun answered, blinking his big eyes like a deer.
“I awakened as an S-class and decided to graduate early. I won’t go to school anymore.”
“Ah, that’s right.”
“Yes?”
“It’s nothing.”
Certainly, in the novel, Kang Soo-hyun used to enter dungeons without going to school after awakening as an S-class. He hasn’t even graduated yet.
Yet at that time, it was the beginning of the second semester, so he was about to graduate. But right now, it is still the first semester and Kang Soo-hyun is a boy who is only 19 years old.
It’s not illegal for minors to enter a dungeon since everyone awakens around middle school and high school. However, they usually undergo training when they are young and are accepted by a guild once they graduate. Since Kang Soo-hyun was an S-class, he jumped to the front line faster.
It didn’t hurt my heart, but I felt uncomfortable when I saw Kang Soo-hyun’s smooth face.
“So you’re staying here now?”
“Yes.”
Kang Soo-hyun smiled happily. I couldn’t believe he could smile like that in this icy atmosphere.
But, well… Maybe he was a little tactless. I poked Eden’s side with my elbow as he glared daggers at Kang Yoo-hyun like he was hoping to kill him.
“Hey, stay still.”
“…I’m against it.”
“What? Who do you think you are?”
Eden frowned as he whispered softly while looking at Park Yoon-sung’s face. He never complained even once when he monitored me 24/7 in the Loki Guild, but once he left the guild, he became rather annoying.
“Then you stay in another accommodation alone. I’ll stay here.”
“What?”
Eden looked at me with a shocked face. I couldn’t get out of here anyway, so I was going to let Eden live in a comfortable place if he didn’t like it. However, for some reason, Eden had a sorrowful expression on his face as if the world had collapsed.
“Yi-jin-ah, are you going to abandon me?”
“Crazy, what do you mean by abandon?”
“It’s my fault. Don’t abandon me.”
“Ah, really.”
I just couldn’t understand him. As I looked at Eden, who clung to me, annoyedly, a jackknife flew in our direction out of nowhere and got stuck in the sofa.
“That’s enough.”
“…”
“…”
Th–this crazy bastard. Did he throw his weapon at me just because I was loud? I looked at Kang Yoo-hyun because I was dumbfounded, and then turned my head away at his brutal glares that indicated his anger. Well, the house owner is a little upset, so I have to be understanding. However, Eden, this foolish bastard, wasn’t convinced, and jumped up from his seat.
“Kang Yoo-hyun you bastard, did you just attack Yi-jin?”
“That can’t be. I threw it at the guy next to him, who doesn’t even know what we’re talking about.”
“What did you say?”
“Why? Should we have a match this time?”
“Ha…”
Look at the level of the argument between the SS-class and A-class. Even though the two argued as if they were going to fight soon, it didn’t seem like anyone was willing to stop them. I turned my gaze to Park Yoon-sung, who was like the director of the orphanage, but he skillfully ignored my gaze. Damn it.
“Ah, yeah. Let’s do it, do it, you bastard.”
“This is the last time I’ll be patient with you. Wind power.”
“Ahh…”
I shouted while pressing a hand to my throbbing head.
“Ah, let’s stop fighting and go eat! You fucking bastards!”
Perhaps because I was starving and stressed from the morning’s events, I could hear my stomach growling. However, Kang Soo-hyun, who was behind me, kept calling me, who was angry and fuming.
“Hyung, hyung.”
“Ah, what?”
“There…”
When I turned around with an angry face, there was Yong-sik, who had thrown away the branch that had been grinded to pieces by his poisonous teeth and caught the next target. A leg of the mahogany cabinet, which looked expensive at first glance, melted under Yong-sik’s poison.
“Kkyaau, kkau!”
Seeing him, Yong-sik raised his voice excitedly. I called out Yong-sik’s name desperately.
“Arghhh, Yong-sik-ah!”
Song Cha-hyun, the Guildmaster of the Freya Guild, held an emergency meeting for the first time in a while. Not many people attended the meeting as she only summoned the key players from the guild. Song Cha-hyun, the guildmaster, sat on the top seat, and on both sides were the Vice Master Song Yul, Valkyrie leader Sung Yoo-bin, and Valkyrie members Han Yeo-reum and Cha Min Hee.
“…Yoo-bin-ah.”
The guild members were assembled, and Song Cha-hyun, who had not said a single word, suddenly opened her mouth. Sung Yoo-bin, whose name was called by her, turned her gaze and looked at Song Cha-hyun.
“Yes, unnie1.”
“…Kang Yoo-hyun.”
“…”
“I told you not to meet him alone.”
She purposely followed him after the press conference, but Song Cha-hyun already knew everything. Instead of making excuses, Sung Yoo-bin lowered her head silently.
“I’m sorry.”
“… Sigh.”
Song Cha-hyun, who was looking at Sung Yoo-bin with an expressionless face, sighed softly. Even though Sung Yoo-bin has the ability to handle fire, she is usually very quiet. However, once she gets excited, she would rush over recklessly. It doesn’t matter what people say. Song Cha-hyun repeatedly warned her not to meet Kang Yoo-hyun alone. If she provoked Kang Yoo-hyun, an SS-class hunter, something bad would definitely happen.
Still, she disregarded her warnings and met with Kang Yoo-hyun, it was a little surprising that nothing happened. Before Song Cha-hyun mentioned that part, Han Yeo-reum suddenly opened her mouth, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
“Hey, you met him, didn’t you?”
“…?”
“What’s his name? Han… Han Yoo Jin?”
“Han Yi-jin.”
“Yes. Him. Did you meet him?”
“…”
The most notable person at Kang Yoo-hyun’s press conference was not Kang Yoo-hyun, the person who was directly involved. It was Han Yi-jin, a B-class hunter who was revealed to have cleared an SS-class dungeon with him at the press conference.
Han Yi-jin became a hot topic after the press conference, he snatched up all the hot search slots and his personal information has been leaked all over the Internet. Not only had he cleared an SS-rank dungeon with Kang Yoo-hyun, but he had also become a hot issue among those of the same rank due to his S-grade auxiliary skill that could increase the target’s stats significantly.
In particular, Han Yeo-reum, who was interested in other people’s business, was going crazy with curiosity. Even if she only saw him on TV, Sung Yoo-bin may have met Han Yi-jin in person. She really wanted to hear her opinion.
“Yes, I met him.”
“How was it? Hm? Just tell me.”
“…”
After a while, Sung Yoo-bin opened her mouth with a calm face.
“He was handsome.”
“Oh, yeah. Handsome… what?”
Even though her face was indifferent and her tone was flat, the words that came out of Sung Yoo-bin’s mouth were completely out of character for her. When Han Yeo-reum opened her eyes wide at her unexpected words, Sung Yoo-bin continued her words quickly.
“He didn’t have double eyelids, but his eyes were big and clear. He has a sharp nose, nice lips, and a narrow chin. He has a small face, a thin nose and a fine mouth, it was a perfect combination and suited him very well. He has dimples when he smiles and he smiles with his eyes a lot. Overall, he is cute, but he doesn’t look weak because he has a good physique, and surprisingly, his body is…”
“Hey, have you gone crazy?”
Han Yeo-reum suddenly looked at Sung Yoo-bin, who was constantly praising Han Yi-jin’s appearance, with a confused look on her face. Song Cha-hyun and Song Yul just shook their heads. Cha Min-hee was sipping tea, looking elsewhere.
“…I’m sorry.”
"

“Haa, why are you so into looks this time…?”
Sung Yoo-bin’s S-level skill, Scout.
Although she is a good fighter, it was her scouting skill that made her the leader of the Valkyrie. This skill, which examines the talents of her favored target, could not be adjusted by Sung Yoo-bin and was sometimes activated like a passive skill.
Until now, Valkyrie’s personnel were scouted with Sung Yoo-bin’s skill.
The scouting skill can be used to its maximum capacity and becomes stronger with Sung Yoo-bin’s favor.
She acted like a nerd with an expressionless face to awakeners she liked for various reasons, such as suddenly praising nail art to those with beautiful nails and requesting those with calm speech to sing for her.
Still, it was fortunate that the majority of the times the skill had been activated was by female hunters so far, but Hunter Han Yi-jin’s appearance seemed to suit Sung Yoo-bin’s taste. Han Yeo-reum clicked her tongue at Sung Yoo-bin, whose ears were red.
“Is he that handsome? I think Kang Yoo-hyun is more…”
“Don’t talk about him.”
“Oh.”
Han Yeo-reum was stunned when she saw Sung Yoo-bin, who quickly became savage. If the scout skill is activated, of course Sung Yoo-bin would also be interested in Kang Yoo-hyun. Because he is the only SS-class hunter in the world.
However, Sung Yoo-bin didn’t really like him very much, so she couldn’t use her skill. If she liked Kang Yoo-hyun, her skill would be activated immediately.
‘I think that would be more fun.’
Han Yeo-reum, whose eyes were sparkling, glanced at Song Cha-hyun who was sitting on the top seat. Song Cha-hyun, who had a poker face on, and was completely unfathomable and unpredictable, smiled faintly.
“It’s a big fish.”
