53 – The man I met again

You beat the A-rank hunter. That was against the Hunter who came out as the guild representative in the tournament.

Unlike the sparring with Lee Ji-hoon at Kang Hyeon-seok’s house, we won by using each other’s mana with all our might.

I think Kang Chul-min had a huge advantage, so I guess I won because I was careless in the end, but in the end, I overcame the A-class without any major injuries, so my heart was filled with a sense of pride that cannot be expressed in words.

Besides, it feels even more valuable because it is a victory obtained by overcoming the hellish training of Kang So-young, and using it properly in the last moment of crisis.

“Heh heh, that was great. Hunter Lee Won-woo.”

At some point, the safety devices around them were turned off, and Ma Dong-sik came up on stage to congratulate them.

After that, Sujeongi and Han Yu-ra, who followed me, came into my eyes.

“I was lucky. I almost lost.”

“If you were in a crisis like that during a quick and short battle, and you came back and won without any damage, you’re out of luck. You are very humble.”

“Thank you for your kind views.”

I’m not particularly likable, but since it’s a compliment, I accepted it favorably. After that, Ma Dong-sik looked at Kang Young-ho and asked.

“Did you capture the video properly as instructed?”

“Yes, as you instructed, I recorded it in tournament-level clear quality.”

“Yes? Are you recording?”

I looked at Ma Dong-sik and questioned the story that the battle had been recorded a while ago. Then, Ma Dong-sik started talking calmly with a nonchalant face.

“Actually, there were quite a few people who complained about the reexamination, claiming that it was preferential treatment. There are also rumors that they are promoting a specific guild. Besides, everyone seems to be suspicious of the story that a person who was judged as a D-class hunter in the past caught a vampire, an A-class boss monster.”

I had already heard about it to some extent before I came here.

‘I understand.’

Actually, it wasn’t strange to raise such a question.

Although Sujeongi is famous, the guild has been in existence for less than a year, and starting with a relatively recent subway incident, even the highest level guilds failed to clear the dungeon, but with Han Yu-ra’s help, they eventually successfully cleared the dungeon.

In addition, the person who was chosen as the central figure in resolving the cases was me, a D-class hunter who was presumed to be Choi Soo-jung’s lover.

As Sujeongi as well as other guilds, Kang Hyeon-seok and Han Yu-ra, pointed out me as a meritorious person, I couldn’t help but have more questions.

It was impossible with common sense that only a D-class hunter could have accomplished such a big thing.

“That’s why we decided to judge properly during the re-examination. In the sense of showing the re-examination process proudly, let’s properly dig into Hunter Lee Won-woo’s skills.”

There was nothing wrong with Ma Dong-sik’s words explaining the purpose of the recording, so there was no big problem in accepting it.

I fully understood why a famous A-class hunter from the Starlight Guild came out to test a D-class hunter.

However, as soon as I heard the purpose Ma Dong-shik said, I was able to notice at a glance that he was not aiming for just one.

‘This person’s real brain is no joke.’

If I win, it’s good because I can solve the rumors related to the Hunter Association at once.

I made it easy through the action of recording a situation where there is no harm to myself no matter which way I go.

The more you get to know him, the more difficult it is to deal with him because he seems to be an unknowable human being.

“Hmm? Hunter Lee Wonwoo. What’s on my face?”

“Ah… no. I was so moved that you cared so much that I made an excuse for staring at you without realizing it.

As if he had been staring at me without realizing it, I quickly apologized to Ma Dong-sik while saying something on my lips.

“Heh heh, no. Wouldn’t it be natural for me, the president of the Hunter Association, to come forward and clear up the misunderstanding. Anyway, great talent came out belatedly, so I’m glad.”

After saying that, he looked at Sujeongi and said.

“Guild leader Choi Soo-jeong has a good eye for people. Skills are skills, but you are blessed to be meeting someone with a good personality.”

At that, Sujeongi didn’t say anything, but in my eyes, I could see that the corner of her mouth went up slightly and her mood improved.

‘Poop.’

There is no response to his own compliments, but even if the person complimenting him is Ma Dong-sik, the fact that he reacts when he praises me is so cute that I laughed quietly inside.

“I have another job, so I’ll just leave. I will look forward to more in the future, Hunter Lee Won-woo.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Ma Dong-shik and Kang Young-ho go to the exit after exchanging their final goodbyes.

After Ma Dong-sik disappeared, I turned my gaze to Su-jeong, but before that, Han Yu-ra sneaked up to me and said in a small voice.

“Of course, Wonwoo always shines in moments of crisis. It was really cool.”

Han Yu-ra said while tapping my arm. I was going to throw a word at this absurd and shameless situation, but I didn’t care and just increased my words.

“Still, our guild members are down, so I’ll go over there. See you later.”

Without even listening to my words, Hanyu went towards the group of people gathered around the fallen Kang Cheol-min.

“Something is very strange about that woman? Did a fireball hit her in the head? She tried to get angry, but she was so weird that I stayed still without even realizing it. Was it like that when I saw you in the waiting room earlier?”

Sujeongi, who was watching from the side, approached and said something rather violent, but she didn’t think to deny it.

“Yes. Isn’t it strange to see Sujeong?”

“Yes. During the test, she didn’t really want to mix things up, so she just watched him, but she came up to Wonwoo and even talked to him in a soft tone that didn’t suit him. How strange is that? Is it time to die?”

“I had a similar thought earlier.”

She agreed with Sujeongi’s opinion as she saw Yura Han talking about something with the guild members of the Seonggwang Guild.

I don’t understand why she is doing this even when she has to bend her pride when the relationship has already been cut off. It seems to have a purpose, but I can’t even guess.

“I feel good because the judging went well, but today we just ignore it.”

Perhaps because she was staring at Han Yoo-ra seriously, Soo-jeong said while crossing her arms next to her to ease her mood.

“Yes. If we worry too much, we will only lose.”

“Right, right. Wonwoo must have been having a hard time today, so I’ll cook you a delicious dinner!”

I am looking forward to the food Sujeongi cooks are always delicious. However, there is something she must point out here.

“Okay. However, it is forbidden to rant about going to sleep.”

“Oh….”

Sujeong-i is slightly taken aback as to whether her true intentions were revealed. Since the day we had chicken and beer together, they have been swearing that they are ready to go to bed every day and that they are ready at any time.

However, her body remembers the rigorous training she received after being caught by Kang So-yeong, so she has no idea what to do secretly.

‘If you get caught, you really die….’

She said Kang So-yeong said that if she cheated again and she did that, she would train her properly to the level of the department she manages, she said.

The training before that was also beyond imagination, but if you do more than that, you might really die.

“It’s too much! I’m always open You keep rejecting it!”

I didn’t even know what he was thinking, and Sujeong was whining as expected.

“But I can’t. If you want to do that, ask Secretary Kang for permission.”

“Chi, knowing you would never allow it. I won’t use it. Don’t write Go ahead.”

She quickly gave up Sujeong because she knew that the words were already hopeless. I headed for the exit, dragging me by her folded arms.

As soon as you exit the exit, you will see an elevator right in front of you.

It was uploaded just in time, so I quickly pressed the button so I wouldn’t miss it.

Ding.

There must be people in the elevator that arrived, so I moved aside for a while.

But in the elevator, a face I will never forget appeared.

“What? Heck, you can see everything from here.”

A blonde man greets me warmly. At first glance, Choi Woo-suk, wearing a lot of luxury goods that looked expensive, looked at me and smiled.

“Anyway, I just heard the news. You said you smashed Cheol-min? Hey Great?”

Choi Woo-seok talks to me without hesitation, like a friend he hasn’t seen in a while. I feel like I’ve already forgotten what happened that day.

On the other hand, the insult he received at that time still lingers in his heart, so he wanted to run right away, but he took a deep breath and responded calmly.

“I’m sorry for beating someone from that guild unintentionally.”

“Oh, it’s okay, it’s okay. Weak people are bad, aren’t they? You know well because you suffered then, right?”

Choi Woo-suk tries to remind him of the painful day. If it was the old me, his heart might have been easily swayed.

But after that day, I don’t do it anymore, but I always prepared in my heart what to say when I had a long nightmare.

And since I met Sujeongi, my age has changed even more, so I can speak confidently while making eye contact.

“Thanks to Hunter Wooseok Choi. It’s the driving force that brought us here.”

Choi Woo-suk said sarcasticly, as if he didn’t like my confident attitude.

“I wish I had done that right from the start. Then even Hanyu wouldn’t have been taken away from me.”

“No, he must have left anyway. Rather, thank you. Thanks to you, I found the real one.”

After answering while keeping eye contact with Choi Woo-seok, he squeezed Soo-jeong’s hand tightly. Then Choi Woo-seok sighed and laughed, and then spoke to Su-jeong in a friendly way.

“It’s been a while, Sujeong-ah?”

Sujeong didn’t even reply to Choi Woo-seok’s greeting, looking at him with a cold gaze.

“Looks like you’re too lazy to answer, keke.”

Choi Woo-seok laughed as if he was having fun, then continued talking while looking at the two of us.

“Looking at them again, they look like a pair that really suits them. One is Hogu, who came up from the bottom, and Banpoon, who couldn’t handle his own strength properly. They are a fantastic couple.”

“Let’s go there.”

As I thought his words were getting worse, I stopped him, and Choi Woo-suk’s expression twisted to the fullest, then straightened out again.

“If you weren’t a toy that could make me happy later, you would be dead by my hand right now.”

Choi Woo-seok speaks while exhaling a life he has never experienced before. He thought Kang So-young had enough experience, but it was more creepy and creepy than that.

As I stared at it silently, he removed his hand from my shoulder and patted me on the back.

“Today is the first day since I returned home, so they look after me. From now on, tell me to mess around while knowing exactly where you are. Got it? You put it back too.”

Choi Woo-suk looked back and said.

The ‘stigma’ was already in Sujeongi’s hand, who was behind him. The silver scythe was poised to cut down opponents at any time, and sharp anticipation stood out.

‘I can’t do this here.’

If you cause a problem in the Hunter Association, there could be a big problem, so he said while holding Sujeong’s hand.

“Sujeongah. Not here.”

“… All right.”

Sujeong looked at me for a while and then erased the ‘stigma’ he was holding in his hand.

“Keuk, are you listening to your boyfriend again? I’m surprised When I was young, I didn’t listen to a single word. Nice, nice.”

Sujeongi flinched at those words, but she just stared at her, perhaps because she was looking for a reason.

Choi Woo-suk turned his back and said, as if he had lost interest in that appearance.

“It’s no fun because the bugs don’t squirm. Hey, have a good time together.”

Choi Woo-suk left insulting words at us and walked towards the entrance we came from as if nothing had happened.
