Chapter 71

Chapter 71

“An F-class suddenly becomes an S-class. Do you think the whole world will stay still? Oh, God! Now I’m an L-class.”

“Uh... well.”

“The United States had already sent someone to conciliate when Sung Jarim appeared, but will they stay still this time?”

Maybe this time it won’t be someone with common sense like Christopher Campbell, but the tougher ones. L-Like an L-class!

“If that is what Yoon Seora wants, I will follow,” Han Suwon, who had been giving her a strange look from the moment she said she would hide her identity, said in a meaningful voice. “Although I’m not sure if it will work out as Yoon Seora wants.”

Wait a moment. It suddenly became ominous once you said that. What’s wrong with you?

“Anyway, I understand. I promise to keep your secret in the name of the head of the Clear Blue Guild.”

Except for Eun Injae and Yoon Jaehun, who fainted, everyone swore. There was still a hint of an ominous feeling, but Seora was a little relieved.

Seora looked at Yoon Jaehun next to her. He hadn’t seen anything because he had lost consciousness, but she intended to tell him everything when he woke up.

Before that, of course, some retribution for doing something reckless.

Her heart still ached as she recalled seeing him being beaten by the monster and flying into the air even after all the work was over. This heavy feeling would last quite a while.

‘I told you not to do anything reckless, but you did it without reason.’

Do you want to show me something I don’t even want to see in my dreams? Just see when you wake up. I won’t let you get away with this.

Seora pursed her lips and slapped his smooth forehead.

***

Seora and Sung Jarim left Cheorwon first.

Were they going to run again? No way. Why would they do such a hard job when there was Jaehun’s car? So they stole without a conscience because the owner passed out and was brought in an ambulance.

“Seoraseora, can you drop me off at the hotel and go alone? I don’t want to be scolded by that scary sister.”

Jarim had been restless when Seora mentioned that she would go to Song Hanna, who would be half crazy because of her, who didn’t return. Seora rejected her opinion.

“No. I’m scared of being scolded alone, too.”

Jarim quietly wiped away tears.

It was already approaching four in the morning when she entered downtown Seoul. It was the time when everyone was sleeping, so of course they thought there wouldn’t be many cars, but what the hell was going on? Standing before the whole town, Seora swore.

“I mean, what’s all this?”

There was enough car, people, and activities all over the street, it was almost a festive atmosphere.

Cars honked and honked, and the stores were open wide at this time, saying all things were free for today.

People on the street set off firecrackers and shook their whole bodies as if they were enjoying a wild party. It was a madness comparable to that of the 2002 World Cup.

It was so scary.

“W-W-What the hell?! Are you all crazy?! Argh! Stay out of the way! I think I’m going to hit someone!”

“Hiyaa, this is no joke. Is it because we finally killed Cheorwon’s monster? Oh! Look over there, Seora. They’re shouting out who’s the third L-ranker to come out.”

“Damn it.”

It was real. Right now, if she appeared in front of that person saying, ‘I’m that L-class!’, even she would be lifted up and turned over in the madness.

Are you guys blasting all the craziness you’ve built up since 2002?! And I think it’s worse now than then?!

“If my identity is revealed, they will eat my bones and all, right?”

“Our Seora is going to die. She’s become 2,000 won more expensive.”

[T/N: From what I get, this is the latest trend to express ‘something valuable worth more’, like boneless chicken that is mostly 2,000 won more expensive than regular chicken.]

“Looking at the atmosphere, it would be a relief if I had some fat left!”

“Heeep!”

Suddenly, the door opened, revealing Song Hanna’s face right in front of her. She almost lost her breath, and Sung Jarim behind her had already sat down as if she had already passed.

Standing with her fingers clutching her legs, Seora struggled to hold her spirit from her stupor.

“I-I-I have something to tell you!”

“Yes, I think you have a lot to say.”

Song Hanna took a step closer and directed her to enter the association’s president’s office with a big hug, leaving Sung Jarim alone.

As if it wasn’t worth dragging Sung Jarim by force, she ended up facing Song Hanna alone. She really wanted to cry.

“Do you know how surprised I was when you didn’t come?”

Seora, who was trying to turn her head, flinched. Contrary to her thought that she would be angry, Song Hanna’s voice was shaking.

“It’s long past your time to come, but you were not at my house, not at the hotel. You were not back at your house, and you were not answering your phone!”

“...”

“If you were going to Cheorwon, you should’ve said something!” Song Hanna screamed in the end as if her emotions had become intense. She seemed to have been informed by the association’s support team in Cheorwon.

“I-I’m sorry.”

When Seora apologized, Song Hanna’s fierce hands grabbed both of her cheeks and stretched them out.

“Do I not know you? Do you think I don’t understand how you want to grab that bastard and blow it to pieces?”

“B-But Aunt thought I was F-class, so I wondered what would happen if you knew I ran to Cheorwon.”

“Right, we should talk about that too. The third L-class. That’s you, isn’t it?”

No, how does someone who wasn’t even in Cheorwon know so well?

“Headbang was also you.”

“Do you have a mind-reader title?”

Seora had been thinking of revealing the truth but didn’t expect she’d figured it out first. Her acting was perfect enough to earn the title of “A Thousand Masks”, so how did Song Hanna see through it?

“I already suspected you might have signed a pact with an Entity.”

“...”

“I didn’t know that you reached S-class, but after that, someone unknown called Headbang suddenly appeared, so I thought it was highly likely that it was you, considering the circumstances.”

[Administrator: (ʘᗩʘ)b]

Liza also admired Song Hanna’s deduction skills.

“Seora, I’m watching you more closely than you think. Of course I notice that something has changed.”

“Umm...”

“Anyway, I’m glad you’re the Headbang and the new L-class. In the future, no matter where you go, you won’t be in danger again because of a guy like Park Jinyong. At least I can put my mind at ease.”

The incident must’ve been quite traumatic. Seora quietly patted Song Hanna’s hand.

“I wondered why you suddenly cried out about leaving the company, but it was because you became an S-class? Do you think you don’t have to work as a civil servant anymore?”

That’s right. Now that the truth has been revealed, the dream of an office worker! Resignation is possible!

“Then I’m going to quit now! You don’t have to worry anymore, I’ll make money out of my Hunter’s life! I can live well on my own!”

How exciting. I’m finally becoming unemployed! I can play and eat enough by clearing the dungeon once, so the time has come to realize everyone’s dream of becoming rich and unemployed!

“Mm. You can’t.”

However, Song Hanna stabbed her puffy chest at once.
