Chapter 1

Chapter 1

The soulless eyes unique to office workers during working hours contained the monitor.

Not just Yoon Seora. The faces of all the employees in the office were full of fatigue.

As a civil servant belonging to the state-run Korea Awakened Management Association, it was natural to suffer from fatigue. Because when a dungeon popped, you had to jump right out whenever and wherever you were.

Just like right now.

“The gate popped near Yeoksam Station! The color is green! It’s a Dungeon Break!”

Aaaaakh! Screams broke out from everywhere.

“It just has to be a Dungeon Break when it’s almost time to get off work!”

“In any case, our third day of overtime is confirmed...”

“Team 2, get on it. There’s Sunset Guild’s headquarters near Yeoksam Station, isn’t it? Please contact them to dispatch their Hunters.”

The field dispatch team of Dungeon Management Team 2 hurriedly got up and ran outside.

Since Team 2 was in charge of Yeoksam Station area, the other teams had no problem getting off work. It was the same for Yoon Seora, a member of Team 1.

‘... if it were in the past.’

She would have cried out that she was lucky it was not the area of Team 1, gave a brief thanks to God, and excitedly and happily prepared to leave work! However, the fact was that Seora’s, who had been looking forward to leaving the office all day, face unexpectedly did not look very good.

The second thing that made her uncomfortable was because it was a Dungeon Break, not a regular dungeon.

‘I can tell it is not ordinary just by looking at this message.’

Seora looked at the system message that appeared before her with a gloomy face.

[Dungeon Break occurs]

A green gate has been created near Yeoksam Station. Be prepared for danger.

Game interface-like system window such as this was naturally visible to all the Awakeneds.

But Yoon Seora was sure that she was the only one who could see this message here right now.

‘Ah! Leaving work on time is not happening again today! This is why I have to quit my job!’

In the end, Seora left the association’s headquarters faster than anyone else with eyes spraying tears as soon as the clock hit six o’clock. She couldn’t even hear the other workers laughing behind, saying she was leaving work with her eyebrows flying out of happiness.

No one in this office would be laughing tomorrow morning if Team 2 encountered a problem.

***

“I knew this would happen.”

Standing on the roof of a middle-story building near Yeoksam Station, Seora clicked her tongue. In a short period of time, the area around the station was already in chaos due to monsters that had already rushed out of the gate.

Fortunately, the Boss Monster didn’t seem to have appeared yet...

“I’m sure it will appear soon. I have no luck, after all.”

Among the dungeons from Level 1 to 7, it was impossible to deal with ogres that mainly appear in Level 4 with only Team 2 with an average class of less than B. It seemed that the Hunters belonging to the guild had not arrived, but if it stayed like this, the area around the station would be a mess.

And everyone will be working overtime tomorrow.

Mm. I don’t like the sound of that at all.

Yoon Seora opened her inventory and took out a sniper rifle and took a stance. The barrel flashed red for a moment upon touch.

Then a new message appeared on the community window. Somehow, it seemed like a sign of telling me Good work, but somehow I felt very bad.

“You showed it to make fun of me, didn’t you?”

When Seora asked with a suspicious look, the message came again.

[Administrator: ♡(ʃƪ ̆ 3 ̆)]

“You’re making fun of me!”

[Administrator: (ง ̇∇ ̇)ว]

“Hey!”

A fist filled with anger flew through the system window. However, the fist, which could hit even B-class monsters in one shot, passed through without smashing the message window.

At the same time, a message came to Seora’s mind as if it had been waiting.

[Administrator : ε⌯(ง ̇∇ ̇)ว ε⌯(ง ̇∇ ̇)ว ε⌯(ง ̇∇ ̇)ว ε⌯(ง ̇∇ ̇)ว ε⌯(ง ̇∇ ̇)ว ε⌯(ง ̇∇ ̇)ว ε⌯(ง ̇∇ ̇)ว]

Emoticons with a clear meaning that Hitting is useless were flying before her.

Seora clenched her fists tightly in the anger that was rushing in, and her whole body trembled.

I knew I couldn’t hit it, but would it hurt if it pretended that the punch had been delivered? Do you have to make fun of people like this?

“A bunch of unilateral emoticons. This is so unfair!”

Seora, who slumped on the floor like a frustrated man, lamented her situation. Just then, the civil servant card, which she had forgotten to remove because she had been in a rush, shook before her eyes.

「Korea Awakened Management Association

Management Office

Dungeon Management Team Yoon Seora (Class F)」

F-class.

Her anger toward the system went away in a flash.

Yes, she had definitely been a low-class F-class Hunter not too long ago.

So how did she get rid of seven B-class ogres in one go?

It was all thanks to that system.

[You are the sole contractor of the system administrator.]

[The Awakened ‘Yoon Seora’ (Class S)]

Jumping from F-class to S-class Awakened.

That’s what Yoon Seora gained by becoming a system administrator’s contractor.

And she was the only contractor in the world.

[Administrator: ヽ(๑╹▽╹๑)ノ]

... Had she known that the system administrator was such a strange guy, she would have thought about it over and over again.

Seora patted her chest in lament.
