The Girl I Saved Came Back As An S-rank Hunter

9 – At the secretary and the item storage

“So Sujeong gave permission?”

“Yes, that is correct.”

As always, a black suit jacket, a white shirt, and a neat black skirt that reached knee length. Braided hair style.

In addition, from the sharp nose to the exotic appearance and calm and mature atmosphere.

At least once, Kang So-yeong, who exactly fits the imaginable image of a secretary, came and delivered Sujeongi’s message to me.

It was a story to use the equipment in the guild item storage in preparation for future dungeon raids.

“I see. I was wondering if I should go buy equipment.”

“Then, please talk to me after the training is over.”

Kang So-yeong just said that and left the training ground.

‘He’s a really difficult person.’

Sujeongi also has a cold and difficult image to others, but she fully reveals her emotions, such as getting angry.

On the other hand, Kang So-young, whom I have seen so far, has a hard personality as if she has no emotions and will never do anything useless except for what needs to be done.

She was not very expressive enough to make me wonder if she was an android robot.

“Looking at the situation, I think I will continue to wait in front of the door until the training is over…. I have to finish here today.”

If you keep waiting, it makes me feel uncomfortable. It’s easier to pick and choose quickly.

After going into the shower at the training ground and washing up, I changed into the clothes I was wearing, not the training clothes.

As expected, Kang So-young is standing in front of the door as expected.

She seems to be texting someone on her cell phone.

When Kang So-young felt her presence, she put her phone in and looked at me, she said.

“You finished early today.”

“Yes, today was difficult, so I finished a little early.”

If I said that I finished early because of myself, it would bother me, so I made an appropriate excuse.

“Then would it be all right if I guide you right away?”

“Yes. Secretary Kang must be busy too, so let’s do that.”

The will to carry out the work that comes in like a knife as if you’ve been waiting for it. As she had already expected, she accepted the offer.

“Then I will guide you.”

After saying that, Kang So-yeong started walking in front of her. She followed him, somehow keeping her some distance.

-Ttogak, Ttogak.

– Jeobeok, Jeobeok.

It feels like the sound of our footsteps as we pass through the hallway is exceptionally louder than usual.

I feel strangely uncomfortable while walking without talking to each other.

I wonder if I should even say something out of awkwardness.

But it’s hard to say anything casually thinking that it could become more awkward if we just talked to each other.

When she asked Sujeongi about Kang Soyoung, she said that she was the one who took care of her from a very young age.

She’s one of the few people she can trust.

So Sujeongi currently entrusts most of the guild duties to Soyeong Kang, and she says that she only takes care of the important parts herself.

In other words, just the name is the secretary, in fact, you can see it as the 2nd rank in the guild.

There is nothing good about saying the wrong thing to such a person and then making them look bad. Although they have different personalities, a guild is definitely a company.

“I have arrived.”

When we arrived at the end of the blocked hallway next to the guild manager’s room, Soyoung Kang looked back and said to me.

“Yes? Where is the archive?”

“Please wait.”

Kang So-young presses down on one spot on the empty wall, and the wall cracks open, revealing a large iron door.

After that, Kang So-young puts her eyes on a machine with a camera next to the iron gate.

After a while, a mechanical sound is heard.

[Iris recognition authentication completed]

[I will start the 2nd magic power certification]

A machine for authentication rises from the floor, and a board with a palm shape drawn on it appears.

After putting her hand on top of her, Kang So-yeong sheds her own magical energy.

[Magic authentication completed]

[Welcome, ‘Kang So-young’]

– Cheekyong.

Hearing the sound of something unlocking, Kang So-yeong pushed the iron door open to make room for her to enter.

“Let’s go in.”

“Oh, yes.”

She was startled by the scale, then moved toward her iron gate at Kang So-young’s words.

I knew it was a lot of money, but I didn’t expect it to be so secret and difficult to set up the item storage.

When she looked inside the door, it was dark.

As she hesitates about what to do, Kang So-yeong stands next to me and snaps her fingers.

At that moment, the light inside came on brightly and the darkness disappeared.

And what unfolded in front of her eyes were items packed into a space as large as the clinic room she had seen before.

“Wow….”

A voice of admiration escaped spontaneously from her mouth.

At this level, it was understandable that it was made while hiding it in such a secret way.

At a cursory glance, items that seemed to be of great value were densely displayed.

At that time, a sword with a golden dragon pattern beautifully engraved in a black scabbard stood alone in the corner caught my eye.

I asked Kang So-young about the familiar shape I saw on the Internet.

“Isn’t that the [Blood Sword]?”

“That’s right. This sword was given to you as a thank you.”

It was a legendary item that appeared as a reward after eliminating the first boss monster, Berserker, in an A-class dungeon.

It was one of the hottest discussions in the Hunter community as it was not private about its ability or performance.

Generally, item grades are classified in the order of normal-high-rare-legendary-myth, but once it turned out to be legendary, interest in it was inevitable.

There were only about 5 mythical items in the world, and only about 500 legendary items were found.

I remember that the guild that attacked the A-class dungeon while defeating Berserker was a heroic guild.

But what on earth did it help the hero guild by handing over an item of this value as a thank you?

“Wonwoo.”

While immersed in such thoughts, Kang So-yeong’s call reached her ears.

“Why is that?”

“I have instructions from the lady, so may I recommend some gear for me to wear?”

“Oh yes, that’s good.”

I accepted Kang So-young’s proposal without much hesitation.

Anyway, Kang So-yeong knows all the information about the items here.

Besides, since I’ve only used high-grade items for items, I think it’s much better to leave things like this.

“Then, let me first explain the [Fairy boots] Here.”

Soyoung Kang started to explain to me, holding the yellow shoes on the bottom of her shelf.

*

“I think this is enough for an item that can be equipped with the current amount of magic power.”

In order to properly utilize the ability of an item, it is essential to wear it in accordance with the magical power.

It happens quite frequently that he is greedy and uses items that are higher than his level, but rather lies down without being able to do anything due to the phenomenon of magical power depletion.

In my case, I can choose the equipment that suits my taste while listening to Kang So-young’s detailed explanation and reasons for recommendation, but that won’t happen.

“It’s a C-class dungeon, but it’s the first time I’m wearing this level of gear.”

From the gauntlet ‘Gloves of Destruction’ worn in the hand to the ‘Bead Greaves’ and ‘Fairy Shoes’ worn. All are rare grade equipment.

At the same time, I like them because they are efficient equipment that does not consume too much mana.

“Thank you.”

It was the first time I had ever received advice on equipment from her side, so I bowed my head in gratitude.

Kang So-yeong looked at it and said in a calm voice.

“You don’t have to thank me.”

“Yes? Why?”

“It was the lady’s order, and he’s the one who will be standing next to you in the future. Just take it for granted.”

“hahahaha… “

I can’t help but laugh awkwardly.

I immediately thought that the guild leader was the secretary.

She is convinced that she will come to her eventually, and Kang So-yeong, who has already promised her future.

They are a duo with good hearts.

“Whoa.”

Of course, from my point of view, along with the thought of being in trouble, I sighed.

“Can I ask you a question?”

Kang So-young rarely speaks to her first and asks.

“Yes, you are.”

“What do you think of my lady? Are you sure you don’t love me?”

In an instant, the energy of sharp killing and magical energy radiates out and surrounds my body. Kang So-young’s face was full of coldness.

I knew at once. Kang So-young is also much stronger than me. Even if she wasn’t as strong as Sujeong, she was strong enough like him.

Her heart beat wildly at the sudden situation, and she thought that if she made the slightest wrong move, she could die right here.

“Let me ask you again. Does she love young lady?”

Anyone can see that it is the tone of a threatening Joe.

I don’t know why it suddenly went like this, but it’s not me to be frightened and say something I don’t mean just because you act so threatening.

The experience of not being able to say what you want to say to the S-rankers because your heart is broken is already enough once.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t know yet. It would be nice to be together, but as a lover, I don’t know yet.”

Looking straight into her eyes, he spat out her conviction.

“Does that mean she doesn’t look like a woman at all?”

To live more intensely. Her skin tingles and tingles. It feels as if countless knives have hit her whole body.

“No, I don’t know about Sujeongi yet. For now, I just want to wait and see what kind of person he is.”

I conveyed my sincere heart without lies.

I was betrayed by someone I watched for a long time, but there’s no law that I won’t be beaten again.

I can’t help it even if this becomes the reason for the other person to leave. Currently, I have no choice but to develop some degree of distrust in humans.

After the answer was over, there was a moment of silence, and the life that had been entangling me also slowly disappeared as if it were dispersing.

Kang So-yeong spat out the words in a low voice.

“As you said, you have a very upright personality. It’s amazing that he hasn’t died yet.”

“I agree that I was lucky in that part too.”

It is true that it is difficult to survive in the hunter world with just a good heart or a sense of justice.

This floor is not only inside the dungeon, but also where hunters or guilds do dirty things.

“So I tried it, and the lady’s eyes weren’t completely wrong. Unexpectedly, you have a podium.”

“I’m glad you think so, that is.”

It exudes an aura that seems to kill people, and they say it’s just a test, but I wonder what would have happened if I had said something different.

“I still have doubts. The young lady has been courting me this far, and even though she keeps refusing, she still wants to stay by his side.”

In Kang So-young’s eyes, it must have been awkward for her to not draw the line while rejecting Su-jeong’s confession.

“This is a warning. If you clumsily play with her heart or try to take advantage of it, she will make sure to pay the price.”

Kang So-young’s sincere voice and her ferocious expression that follow make her feel a little goosebumps down her spine.

And when it comes to things related to Sujeong, she can be recognized by her quick-tempered appearance.

This person wasn’t a robot, he was just an idiot.

She was a person who was very affectionate and sensitive to matters related to Sujeong, just like the so-called daughter fool.

Since I’ve been watching since childhood, I’m special like a daughter, but when a man who says he likes that precious daughter keeps pushing me away, I get angry and wonder if she’s a weirdo, so that’s exactly the situation.

From the point of view of Kang So-young watching, it was inevitable that it would irritate her eyes.

“Ha, Sujeong is my benefactor. A big benefactor who made Hunter’s comeback. There will be nothing to worry about. I will speak confidently once I have decided on my feelings.”

“We will keep watching. Will you keep your word or not?”

First of all, I appeal to you to trust me, but the response is still cold.

Unbeknownst to me, it seems that the ugly hair has already been properly set. It was clearly visible that life in the guild would not be smooth in the future.

“Don’t forget. The young lady has only looked at you and loves you from a very long time ago.”

“Yes, I heard about the past from Sujeong.”

“How far have you heard?”

Let’s look at her with the meaning of what she means by the word, Soyoung Kang nodded her head and she said.

“I can see how far you talked.”

“Is there something more I don’t know about or something?”

I asked her questions, but Kang So-yeong clearly expressed her intention to refuse.

“It would be better to hear the story directly from the lady. I don’t think it’s something I’m going to talk about.”

“Then may I ask you one question instead?”

I’ve been watching Sujeong for a long time, so I wanted to ask you something.

Kang So-yeong took out her cell phone and glanced at it. After checking the time, she said.

“Because of work, there is only one time. I will limit myself to what I can answer.”

As soon as Kang So-young’s words ran out, she asked as if she had waited.

“What kind of person is Sujeongi?”

“… This is a strange, unexpected question.”

“I think you would know better since you’ve been watching for a long time.”

Sujeongi definitely approaches aggressively, but whenever that happens, there are many times when I feel like I am hiding something or carrying on alone.

There must have been something difficult or painful, but there are times when it seems like you’re just trying to get over it by yourself without saying anything and fooling around or playing around.

I don’t know if that’s a bad thing or a good thing for me, but it bothered me.

So, I want to know at least a little bit about what kind of person Sujeongi is because of her personality.

“Um…. You could say that the young lady is a girl who has grown up too early.”

Kang So-yeong speaks after thinking for a while. There was a small hint of sadness in her words.

“As a child, he grew up alone with no one to turn to except for me. That doesn’t mean I don’t have a family or anything like that. However, they are difficult to call family.”

“I see.”

I can sympathize with you, perhaps because they have a similar past history. A person who has become a habit of overcoming and enduring anything alone.

“Yes, that is what made me the lady I am today. Whether she meant it in a good way or in a bad way. She had to learn and overcome it all on her own.”

Kang So-yeong speaks with a bitter expression.

I wanted to ask a more detailed question because I was curious, but I decided to give up for now as it seemed impossible to hear more than this answer.

“Then, since my answer is over, let’s leave.”

“Oh, yes.”

“Take off the equipment you have chosen and leave it here, and I will send it home.”

After taking off our equipment, the two of us left the item storage.

After escorting me back to the training ground, Kang So-yeong bids me her farewell.

“Let’s go.”

“Yes, thank you for your hard work.”

She did not pretend to hear the greeting, and Kang So-yeong left as if nothing had happened.

Watching Kang So-young walk away from her back reminds me of what I said earlier.

Suddenly, Sujeongi looks brighter than anyone else at the moment, but I thought that maybe she was walking alone with a lot of darkness.
