Hyungnyim! Now that we're done, what about dinner for the celebration? "


On the way home, Yoo Jinho carefully said that.


Celebratory dinner? Just the two of us?"


After the last Raid, their raiding party had been disbanded.


Han Songyi had told them that she had to go somewhere, so there was only


Jin Woo and Yoo Jinho are in the car now.


Shamefully Yoo Jinho continued,


"Yes ... I just got help from you in a lot of ways.I thought I'd


buy you today"


Why was he so embarrassed just to ask for a meal together?


Jin Woo smiled.


The young man volunteered to treat her, so she had no reason to refuse.


"All right"


When Jin Woo casually agreed, Yoo Jinho's face looked bright.


“Hyungnim! There's an upscale restaurant at the hotel I know, how?


Their steak is delicious"


"Well, there's nothing like it"


Jin Woo wants to eat with Yoo Jinho somewhere convenient.


A suitable restaurant is visible while driving.


tap


Jin Woo tapped on the car window with his finger.


"How about it over there?"


“Ah, do you want hanwoo beef?”


"No, that's next to him"


Yoo Jinho's eyes narrowed.


Next to ... There is only one other restaurant.


[Flower Samgyupsal Day - thin sliced specialty]


"Are you talking about the place of the thinly sliced samgyupsal, hyungnim?"


"Didn't you like samgyupsal?"


Yoo Jinho smiled brightly,


“No,hyungmin.I like it too"


After parking the van, the two entered the restaurant, only to find out if it was crowded.


It was 7pm, almost the time most restaurants were full.


"Welcome home"


A servant greeted them with a smile.


"How much?"


"Two"


"Please, get through here."


The waiter took them somewhere in the corner.


Suddenly,


"Wait"


Looking around the restaurant, Yoo Jinho pointed to an empty spot near the window,


"Can we sit there?"


"Ah, forgive me.The tables are reserved for ... "


It seems a large group has ordered a part of the restaurant.


Yoo Jinho looked at the wide-open tables in disappointment and shook his head.


Then, the two men ended up sitting in the far corner into the restaurant.


Yoo Jinho looked down,


"I'm sorry, hyungnim."


"Hmm? What makes you apologize, I'm the one who wants to come here"


"But, still, I have to treat you in a better place"


Jin Woo smiled and patted Yoo Jinho on the shoulder,


"Don't worry about it and just enjoy the food, yeah"


In fact, Jin Woo is worried that this cheap establishment may not be to his taste


yoo Jinho's.


"And I don't want to mention it, but ..."


Jin Woo looked around.


The restaurant was full of people.


Because he often spent time in solitude at home, the atmosphere was lively


like this isn't too bad.


“It's three servings of samgyupsal and two bottles of soju.”


Their orders have arrived.


sizzle


Well-cooked meat on a sizzling pan.


The two hunters started eating it.


One by one, the pieces of meat disappeared from the frying pan.


Fortunately, it seems like this young master of chaebol loves food like this.


"I often eat samgyupsal with my friends,hyungnim"


"Oh yeah? College buddies? ”


"Yes.Compared with rich kids from expensive and prestigious schools, I prefer


hanging out with my friends from normal college”


Jin Woo smiled and nodded as Yoo Jinho spoke.


It was somewhat a match for the young man he knew.


"It,hyungnim."


Yoo Jinho pours Jin Woo soju.


"You too"


Jin Woo replied to the gesture.


gulp


They filled each other's glasses, toasted and then drank once more.


"Yeah-y"


However, compared to Yoo Jinho who made a satisfied expression, Jin Woo's face


shriveling with annoyance.


"Huh? Hyungnim, isn't that your favorite? ”


"No.It's not…"


Jin Woo looked at his empty glass.


Amidst the busy schedule he maintained, he forgot about this.


ring ~


[Dangerous substances have been detected]


[Effect of buff ‘Detoxification’ will be activated]


[3, 2, 1 ... Detoxification completed]


'I'll never get drunk again"


No matter how much he drank, the results would remain the same.


ring ~ ring ~ ring ~


With the 'Longevity' buff in effect, all the harmful effects have been removed from Jin Woo's body.


The soju he drank was nothing more than bitter water.


Jin Woo cursed at her internally, though,


"Fuckup"


Rather than drinking this useless bitter liquid, he better drink soda.


"Excuse me,"


Jin Woo called the waiter, though,


"Can we get two more servings of samgyupsal and a bottle of soda?"


"Of course."


As the waiter walked away, Yoo Jinho tilted his head, saying,


"Hyungnim, will you not drink again?"


"I'm not that good with alcohol."


Jin Woo replied with an expressionless face, but as usual, Yoo Jinho did not accept


the intent behind it.


His face turned red from drunkenness, and the young man smiled morally, saying,


"I didn't think even hyungnim had a human side like this ..."


Yoo Jinho sent a strange look at Jin Woo, but the man ignored him.


"It's not like this the only time the kid gets weird"


There's something Jin Woo wants to know about her,


"So, what are your plans from now on?"


When a serious question arises, Yoo Jinho suddenly sits upright like a


he was interviewed at his first job interview,


“After a simple written test in the Association, I will get the license of Guildmaster,hyungnim.


With that, I'll go and try to make a deal with my father"


The young man's eyes were filled with determination.


He had invested a little of his own money into this plan; there was no room for


retreat now.


"And I have an appointment with hyungnim"


The building he promised Jin Woo.


He would only be able to keep that promise if he could convince his father to hand over


guildmaster Position.


Meanwhile, Jin Woo is a bit carefree about a lot of things.


"It's nice to get that 30 billion won building, but, uh,"


It's just the tip of the iceberg.


The real goal is to level up.


And with the 20 Rank-C Dungeons he had conquered with Yoo Jinho, he succeeded


meet that goal many times.


The level-up result?


Kim Cheol is a Rank-A with contract fees likely to run into the billions,


and Jin Woo defeated him with just one punch.


"That means at least, I'll be able to get over that shit"


A large income will naturally follow a great ability.


Jin Woo doesn't have to worry about money.


Therefore, Jin Woo's face was filled with a carefree expression.


As Jin Woo reminisced about his last few days with a smile, Yoo Jinho asked a question,


“How about you, hyungnim? What's your plan now? "


"Me?"


Is that something he shouldn't ask?


“I'll disappear for a while.There's a place I have to go"


With that sentence, a wrinkle was seen on Yoo Jinho's face.


The young man looked like an abandoned puppy on the street and he was direct


finishing glasses.


tap


Yoo Jinho placed his glass hard on the table.


With the help of the bravery of alcohol, the young man opened his mouth,


"Hyungnim, if I only trouble you, please tell me


bother you again"


"This is ..."


It seems that Jinho has misinterpreted his words about "disappearing" for something


the other.


Jin Woo scratched his temple and spoke,


"Jinho."


"Yes, hyungnim."


"What am I really for you?"


"For me…"


Unable to reply immediately, the young man's eyes looked up at the ceiling.


"I have an older brother, who is 10 years older than me, hyungnim."


Jin Woo has heard it.


That's Yoo Myunghan's eldest son, Yoo Jinsung.


"My hyung doesn't like me very much.To be honest, I probably spent more time


with you in the last few days compared my whole life to my hyung.


Compared to that big brother, hyungnim saved my life, helping me


with my plan ... ”


Yoo Jinho looked at Jin Woo with innocent eyes,


"For me, hyungnim feels more like my older brother than my real brother"


Well, she still fears Jin Woo from time to time.


But still, the memories he made with Jin Woo in their days together were


something he could never forget.


Yoo Jinho's respect for his hyungnim was far greater than his fear.


"If you think of me as your older brother,"


Jin Woo spoke with a smile,


"I'll take you as my sister."


"H-hyungnim ..."


With his nose reddened, Yoo Jinho started crying.


Well, Jin Woo could tolerate if he was just crying, but the young man suddenly pushed


he's headed towards Jin Woo,


“Hyungnim! I want to hug you! ”


"Hey, hey! You're drunk, motherfucker! "


"No,hyungnim! My head has never been clearer than it is now! "


"At least open your eyes when you speak!"


"Yeahahah!"


Whether he was really touched or just drunk, Yoo Jinho put his head down


on the table and started crying loudly.


Jin Woo gently patted the young man on the shoulder.


Soon, Yoo Jinho fell asleep.


"Huh ... He's really something else"


Jin Woo leaned back in his chair and bit his tongue.


Yoo Jinho's.


In many ways, she is annoyed, but Jin Woo does not hate her.


[And here is the next report.]


Jin Woo turned to the TV.


TV in restaurants redirected to news channels.


"Have it been 9?"


Jin Woo subconsciously stared at the screen as a familiar face appeared.


"Oh?"


Jin Woo's eyes widened.


Leaving his Guild headquarters, Baek Yoonho is attacked with a barrage of questions from


journalists around him.


[We've received reports saying there was a big crash with training


new recruitment, is that true?]


[We have heard that all high-ranking Hunters died and only Hunter


low-ranked living, do you have any comments?]


[There are reports that an unidentified helper saved the survivors, what do you think of this?]


The S-rank did its best to ignore the reporters but eventually gave up,


[This incident has already been investigated by the Association.It is true that there was an accident during training,


but there is no such thing as a helper.Baekho members work together to clean up


Dungeons, but many Hunters fall during the process.That is the reality]


A reporter asked, though,


[Then why did you prevent us from interviewing a survivor Hunter?]


[They just escaped from the jaws of death.I won't let them


asked questions after what they had experienced.That's it.]


TV shows Baek Yoonho quickly getting into the car and leaving.


Jin Woo's eyes were wide open.


‘... Aren't they talking about me?’


________________________________________


A while ago.


East Coast, United States.


"MUUHHH!"


James fell to the ground.


With strength in his legs gone, the man crawled on the floor to escape


but realize that he has reached a dead end.


All hope of leaving America.


"Oh my God!"


This time the Dungeon was A rank.


A Raid party with a suitable level of strength was put together to clear the Dungeon,


but the whole party was destroyed.


To be exact, they were eliminated.


'Imstrapped!'


With his back against the wall, James caught his breath and shook


his head repeatedly.


It was an impossible event.


When they first entered the Dungeon, they found that it was completely empty.


No monsters were found.


"Dungeon without monsters?"


"Is that possible?"


"Then where did all the magic power measured outside come from?"


The Hunters were confused simultaneously.


However, passing through this strange problem, something even more shocking was discovered


in the boss room.


They found the only monster there.


A Boss who looked exactly like a human.


That single enemy crippled the entire Raid party.


Strength could not even describe this.


Only James barely escaped the boss room.


"Wait, did all the magic power measured outside come from it?"


The A-Rank label was given to the Dungeon after measuring the magic power seeping out


from the inside.


In ordinary situations, that magic power was the combined amount released by each


monsters in the Dungeon.


But this time, there was only one entity that unleashed such magic power.


'Imust.'


But.


"Sigh ... Come on" (Korean)


The monster had appeared in the distance.


James shouted,


"MUHHHH!" (Scoffs in English)


"Ow,telingaku" (In Korean)


Monster, no, this is an Asian guy with too much growing hair and facial hair


he scratched his head.


"Oh, uh ..."


Jame's scream turned into a groan.


The mysterious man stood in front of the American and placed his hand on his hip.


"I mean, why are you attacking me like that? I told you, I'm not a monster


man"(Korean Language)


James could not understand the man.


His face only turned whiter and whiter.


The Asian man looked at the panicked American, wondering what he should do.


He breathed deeply.


"Unlike you, yankees can even understand me"


Still, the man was trying to communicate.


He crouched down to sit parallel to James, then tried to speak as calmly as possible,


"Hey,hey" (In broken English)


The man was trying to remember a little bit of English he knew.


"Aim Coreaun" [I'm Korean]


He did his best to speak as clearly as possible,


"Ai wanteu to go hom" [I want to go home]


Note: who is he ????????
