*Before the protagonist enters the portal.
"hoam.." a bored yawned woman, she was looking at a large monitor screen displaying a residential area.
"You sleepy, miss?"a woman behind him asked in a worried tone.
"i'm fine, I can still!" But his face said otherwise. His face was lethargic and had panda eyes. He stayed up late to monitor the monitor.
"you have not slept for three days, miss, you must rest, let me and my subordinates take care of it!"
"no, as the leader of the Guild, I must take responsibility."
the woman behind him is very worried about her boss's health, but she knows that her boss will keep her monitor clean.
"miss, why don't we stop our business, this is illegal miss!"
"how many times have I told Xiao mei, I have to do this so that our Guild can thrive and survive!" illegal businesses, businesses that sell buy portals.
the way it works is that a Guild takes over a portal to be cleaned, but not cleared, but sold to another Guild for big money.
Not many guilds dared to do this kind of illegal thing. Only a few brave and ordinary Guilds did not last long.
portals are usually sold in dangerous sites known only to a few people.
in selling the portal, a lot of preparation is required, such as strong soldiers who have to hold the monster when the monster is already crazed because the portal is not entered and not cleaned. And portal prices are very expensive, even for spider-level portals. The higher the level of the portal, the more expensive it is, but the less willing to buy it.
one of the Guilds running this business was the Chaos Guild led by Ling hua.
This Guild was a new Guild that had few members and most of its members were non-fighters.
since Guilds were unable to participate in the cleanup, Guild Chaos was hit by a crisis, and Ling hua ran a portal sales business for the sake of his Guild's survival.
because of this business, Guild Chaos became famous in the underworld and recruited a Mercenary to guard the portal.
and now, Ling hua was in a panic as there was a client who ordered a novice dungeon. But he didn't find it until now.
it's 4 at dawn and he hasn't found it yet, but he's not discouraged.
"ck." An hour had passed, Ling hua became impatient. But a miracle happened, there was a portal that appeared at the playground.
"xiao mei, look at that!" Ling hua became excited, his drowsiness disappearing instantly as he looked at the portal.
"yes lady!, finally the portal appeared, but..." Xiao mei was also relieved, but after she saw the degree of danger, her face paled
"why?"
"the level of danger ...unknown."
xiao Mei is a mechanic, who designs drones to monitor the surrounding area. Xiao Mei also wore glasses that connected her to the drone camera.
the drone was able to detect the danger of the portal, but the moment Xiao mei detected the danger, what appeared was only a big question mark.
" are you serious?"
"yes, lady, I'm not kidding."
"hmmmm, Bodo is very concerned about the danger, directly contact our clients!"
"but lady, our client is looking for a spider-level portal, what if it's dangerous?"
"there is no other choice Xiao mei!, this is for the sake of our Guild"
although reluctant but finally Xiao mei did what Ling hua said. Xiao mei pressed the rectangular dime button in front of Ling hua, and a large hologram screen that read (as it called) appeared
finally appeared a handsome and brave bald face, with a scar on his left eyebrow.
(Halo Ling hua, have you found the portal for my Guild yet?)
"i've found the portal, Mr. Turo, the spider-level portal you want." Ling hua spoke softly, with a hint of the spice of lies.
(good, very good!) Turo looks very happy.
(i'll send you 50 million rupiah.)
"by 8 I'll be at the portal."
"well!" after that, the call is closed. Ling hua was very happy and smiled sumringah.
*hour 6
"hey, have they arrived yet?" Ling hua asked Xiao mei.
"not yet."
"luckily no one had yet realized the portal it-" Before finishing his words, Ling hua saw there were 8 small children going to the playground, and their attention was fixed on the portal.
"wait, kids, it's dangerous!" Ling hua panicked because one of the children wanted to touch the portal.
but the boy did not touch the portal because a teenage boy stopped them.
"luckily, someone stopped the kids." Ling hua was relieved and drank the tea that was in front of him.
before long, Ling hua choked while drinking his tea, he was shocked by the ridiculous sight, the teenager who stopped the children from tripping over a stone and entering the portal.
"what!?" Ling hua was angry and slammed his teacup to pieces.
"fucking little boy, curse you!!!" Ling hua cursed the teenage boy, because of his carelessness, the portal set up for his special client was gone.
"relax your lady." The panicked Xiao mei tried to calm Ling hua down.
xiao Mei was also not inexhaustible about the teenage boy, that portal was the only portal that could be sold now.
but Xiao mei's expression soon improved, Xiao Mei found the portal elsewhere, plus it was multileveled as the client wanted.
"mona, forget that portal, I found the spider-level portal."
"huh?, really?, then immediately tell our client to change his destination!"
"fine miss!"
it was one of the fate-determining events of the Chaos Guild. But that was the case first.
now 7 months have passed, more precisely now it is January 3, 2026 The incident at the playground occurred on June 6, 2025.
The Chaos Guild grew rapidly until it became a large Guild.
now Ling hua enjoys his rich life, although still monitoring the screen.
"hoaammmm...." Ling hua was very bored with the scenery he saw every day.
suddenly, he recalled the incident on the playground.
"hey Xiao mei, can you focus the screen on that?"
"where is it?"
"yes"
the place Ling hua meant was a playground at that time.it was now 8pm, therefore the streets were quiet and there was only a pair of mothers and children were walking through the playground.
"hoaammmm...." Ling hua yawned once more.
"why don't you just sleep, miss?"
"no Xiao mei, who knows something interesting happened."
and sure enough, a pair of mothers and children were surprised by the appearance of a blue spiral in the air, it was a portal.
"what?" Ling hua was shocked by the sudden appearance, if he saw the place exactly with the portal 7 months ago.
after which, a teenage boy bounced out of the portal in torn and scarred clothes.
"wait, how!?"
after that, the mother who passed by with her son reported to the nearest Slayers office
