mercenary test

"But you said you didn't belong."

"Uh huh, is the special agent talking about my affiliation?"

Kang Min-hyuk frowned.

"Somehow, he was so cool."

Even when the 4th ranked guild in Korea, Shilla, offered a scouting offer, I was very nervous.

I didn't know that and ate it up as if it was a great opportunity.

Damn, it feels like a duvet kick.

"It's okay. give up."

"Ah, I thought he was a really talented person ."

Kang Min-hyuk swallowed his regret and headed to his office.

Offensive Team 27 office.

uh? The chief is here."

Only the youngest, Young-woo Oh, was in the office.

"Where are the kids going and are you alone?"

"All the hyungs went downstairs to play billiards."

"Uh-huh, the team leader is filling in vacancies, so it's good to sell."

27 The attack team has 10 players.

I lost two crews in the last dungeon raid. For that vacancy, I looked for interns that could be used these days, and I looked for outsiders, but I couldn't find any suitable talent.

"Where did Sangjin go?"

"I went to report the intern evaluation."

Oh, it's because of me.

It was originally the job of the team leader, but after seeing Sang-Jin Han, the assistant team leader, he told me to go replace him. He was shy and sent the youngest to run an errand.

"Give me a cup of coffee."

"Yes."

Oh Young-woo lifted his heavy buttocks to please the team leader, who has a low pressure today.

Kang Min-hyeok, who sat in his seat, gave Suho's personal details as to whether he still had any regrets.

"But why is the one raised by the government going alone?"

Kang Min-hyuk, who was tapping the desk, made an impression.

"Ah, I don't know."

It is a question that has no answer if you think about it.

If it belongs to the government, that's the end, or I'll be contacted.

Because I gave you a business card.

When I empty my mind, I feel a little relieved from the stuffy chest.

I dialed the extension and called Deputy Manager Park of the talent discovery team.

"He's there. Just keep an eye out for trends."

- Damn it, I'm going to throw away my regrets.

"Oh, I don't know. Just let me know if there is anything special on a weekly basis."

- Well, I see.

effort.

After hanging up, Kang Min-hyuk threw the report on the desk.

manager. Coffee here."

"Uh, thank you."

I can't eat it, but I'll have to try stabbing it.

A week has passed.

All Suho has done in the past has been to wander around the neighborhood and savor the long-lost local foods.

With Junho's help, I also prepared for the mercenary exam.

The most important thing a mercenary needs is fighting ability, but the written test was also important.

Because they often conduct joint operations with other mercenaries or soldiers, they had to be familiar with common hand signals and troop tactics.

The mercenary exam is twice a month.

The exam is coming tomorrow, and Suho has only studied handwriting.

"Are you really confident in your skills?"

"Can't you believe me?"

no ."

I don't believe it when I see gangsters treat them like children, but I wondered if it was okay to prepare so poorly for the mercenary exam.

"But what are you writing about?"

"Oh, this?"

Suho smiled and showed the paper.

"It's a life plan."

If you look closely, it's a sketchbook that I bought to study Gunwoo's painting.

"Acquisition of a mercenary license, dungeon hunting, rice wine, pork feet, udon, chicken soup, car purchase, guild establishment ."

Just a list of items was close to a bucket list. I saw the list of restaurants I saw on TV last night.

Huh? Guild establishment?"

"Uh, why?"

"You're making a guild?"

right.

A look of absurdity appeared on Junho's face.

"Aren't you joining the guild?"

"Hey, how do you get in under Ms?"

Still, there are years of living as the king of the forest. How can you live in a group with a boss on top?

"It was nothing special."

Animals or humans, everything.

A group is a clan, and a territory is a guild. Suho wanted to create his own guild and establish a strong realm.

"It's not that easy ."

"You are there."

uh?

Did I hear it wrong?

"He said he would help me."

" ."

Thank you so much for your brother's grace. I thought that it would be okay to follow my brother for the rest of my life and drive him around.

For example, a manager or support agent that mercenaries usually have one at a time.

"You want to make a guild? with me?

"Oh, help."

" ."

"I will look for team members to join me."

Recruiting budding subordinates is his job. Only administrative processing should be left to the younger brother.

"Oh, I have to move too."

Seeing hyung adding to his bucket list, Junho laughed out loud.

okay. The bigger the dream, the better."

It's still a far cry from the fact that the older brother who is about to take the exam, who doesn't have a mercenary license yet, will set up a guild.

Can you help me step by step?

The test site was right next to the bureau. There are only two exams a month, so I thought there would be quite a lot of people, but there weren't that many.

There were about 200 people sitting sparsely in the large lecture hall.

It was noisy due to the chattering of three or five people, but there was a place where people's eyes were particularly touched.

He was a man who did not stop talking to himself while holding a selfie stick and looking at his phone.

"Brothers. Please support me to pass this exam! Aigoo, thank you for the 20 thousand won support from Gamsu-nim."

The man's words, which had been constantly chattering about whether there was a motor in his mouth, had to be stopped when the supervisor came in.

"Oh, brothers. I am about to start the exam. Filming is prohibited, so the broadcast will end here. I'll be sure to get a mercenary certificate and add hunting content. Trust me."

He said goodbye for a very long time, shutting down his phone and smiling.

'How much would you like to earn?'

There is a trend in broadcasting.

It was once a game BJ that competed with game skills, but after the cataclysm, the number of people who enjoyed the game plummeted.

The female cam is still doing well, but it wasn't easy for Dong-su, who wasn't very handsome, to survive on an Internet personal broadcast.

I tried to draw provocative content while pulling star aggro, but it was too much content for him to put down below a certain line of human dignity in the first place.

There was no particular reason why he wanted to become a mercenary, who was barely eating.

'Look at the wind blowing. Huh.'

In today's world, this is money.

90 out of 100 world-class YouTubers were all about awakening or dealing with content related to the dimension industry.

The donation received twice as much as usual.

'The contents of the mercenary test are in order, but if you hunt properly .'

When I imagined a happy future, my ears caught on. I will recover the glory of the days of game broadcasting in the past.

But it feels like someone is staring at me... .

"Baby shit. It's a surprise. What is it?"

I didn't even know when it came. Suho was the one who took the seat right next to him and was looking at him full of curiosity.

"What is it, I was just looking."

"Are you watching the show for the first time? Uh-huh, go away."

When Suho shrugged his shoulders and lowered his head a little, Dongsu sighed and fled to the seat next to him.

Whether they are popular or not, single broadcasters are also half public figures, so those kinds of people are bound to stick together.

If you get excited and show a bad personality, this is your only loss. Dong-soo forced himself to hold back his anger.

"He's a fun guy."

Suho shrugged his shoulders and looked at the supervisor who was just starting to say hello.

nice to meet you. This is Major Kim Young-soo, who will oversee your exams for three days."

In front of him, 21 evaluators from the bureau and the army lined up.

"The 21 examiners here will be with you for three days and two nights to decide whether or not to fail. All actions are reflected in the evaluation ."

At the supervisor's words, people began to gossip.

"Ah, I have to wait in line this time."

"Captain Park Jung-soo is over there. That guy is honey. You must go there."

Wow! There are witches too. If you go there, more than half of you will be eliminated."

Whether the subjective scores of the evaluators depend a lot on the test takers began to fight each other.

"Then we will sort the first 10 people in a row."

Woodang!

After hearing the lunch bell, the test takers ran out like a luncheon and tried to stand in front of an evaluator who gave a generous score.

"Ugh, beast or man."

Suho's appearance was somehow like a fight between males to woo a popular female.

Somehow, I thought people were sitting in the front and the aisle.

The number of applicants was 206.

Suho, who slowly stepped forward, went to the line of only five and stood at the back.

"Ah, shit. I'm just relocating... ."

In front of Suho, Dongsoo Han, who had arrived late because he had lost his aisle seat, was staring at him vigorously.

That look was cute.

Why? If you have any complaints, do you have a fight?"

"Sheesh."

Suho smiled bitterly when he saw Dongsoo turning his head in response to a light provocation.

Then my eyes met the test tube, and it was spherical.

uh?

uh? you!

The examiner also opened his eyes when he saw Suho.

Choi Soo Young.

"Yes, boss."

"What's wrong with you today?"

no.

Aside from his hysterical personality, Choi Soo-young's detection ability is the highest level of superpowers.

The achievement of discovering dimensional rifts before portalization in advance is 20 to 30 times a year.

The ace of the detection department is Choi Soo-young, no matter what anyone says.

"Isn't the kid with no problems going to the scene for ten days?"

"You must be in bad shape."

"You have already had two punctures in your area!"

Two portals were created that were not detected and prepared in advance. The portal management team was dispatched late to control the area and attack the dungeon, but if it were a bridge portal directly connected to another dimension, not a dungeon portal, it would have been a big deal.

Still, Choi Soo-young did not raise an eyebrow.

"Can't work be done without me?"

"It's because the most talented kid plays. How many complaints have I received from the Portal Management Department? ."

Captain Hwang swallowed the horse while vomiting. Choi Soo-young was staring at herself with a frown on her face.

"Are you using your resignation card?"

"No, why are you saying that again? This is waste, waste. Why do you rot that good sense?"

"Oh, I don't know. I can't concentrate at all these days.

Ugh. I ."

Chief Hwang was about to speak.

It's just frustrating, there's no answer. Anyway, the instructions came from above.

"Huh, take this with you."

What is it?

Choi Soo-young, who saw the paper handed to him by Director Hwang, made a strong impression.

"No, if you just have a little fun, why don't you send it out every day?"

"Are you the only one out? Why not just once or twice?"

"Uh-huh, that's it."

Director Hwang clicked his tongue when he saw Choi Soo-young turning around.

"Don't squeeze all the test takers again because it's low pressure. no one these days At least one more should be put into the field."

"If you go to the scene, you will only die."

"Hey, that temperament. ttt."

He clicked his tongue as he saw Sooyoung Choi closing the door and leaving. It's just that I feel sorry for these test takers.

Reserve 21 team accommodation.

In the dormitory built for 10 people, only 6 beds welcomed the owner.

Han Dong-soo, who loosely unpacked his luggage, asked Suho.

"Wow, are you familiar with the examiner?"

"I've seen it before."

"He is a very famous person."

"You have yellow hair?"

Yeah. Occasionally I come to the test tube, but I'm not kidding. There is no such thing as dropping everyone out just because they feel bad. Calling me a witch for nothing... ."

Dong-soo, who was talking, made a strong impression.

"Damn it, it's our team."

I enlisted by pretending not to be so good to the viewers, but I felt like I was falling apart.

It's all because of that handsome bastard.

What? Why?

"It's all because of you."

"It's not."

Suho chuckled. If he's late because he's a little farther away, he's probably late in the first place.

In the first place, whoever the examiner is, if he had prepared a lot, he would have passed the test.

"No, but why are you talking half-talking about it? Yes?

Dong-soo complained that his patience had run out, and Suho's eyes were playful.

"Are you going to have a drink?"

I can feel the gaze of people who are on the same team. Except here, it is only a moment to be underestimated.

'Damn it, I can't even eat it.'

Dongsu made a decision.

"Heh, shit. am i happy? Follow.

"Oh."

As soon as he said the words, Dong-soo jumped up and Su-ho smiled and stood up.
