Articles were published one after another.

Public opinion also heated up.

―Wow, the world record breaker and even Sword Saint’s disciple, XD, they’re crazy from the start of the guild formation, haha

―Left Kim Minwoo, Right Park Siwoo, Reliable, Reliable, kekeke

―They openly said they were a small elite, so it seems like they’re aiming for only S-rank achievements?

―Aren’t S-rank achievements really hard? At least those two came out and somewhat relieved the recent awakening drought.......

―Even so, it’s still hard, LOL, the last one came out 7 years ago, lmao, I think we need to recruit veterans instead of new faces now to get it.

―Anyway, it seems like Korea finally has a guild that’s worthy of being called a guild? Is the guild ranking going to change now?

―It’s difficult, tbh, the structure is that you have to accumulate gate clearing achievements to rise in the rankings, it seems like it’s going to be hard to get out of the bottom right away.

―Yeah, the number of people required for clearing above C-rank gates increases significantly. No matter how much of a super rookie they are, it’s a bit difficult for two people to clear it?

―Don’t underestimate them. Those two might be able to raise their levels and try a 2-man clear.

―That’s true. Anyway, I’m a bit excited, with the financial power of Ilsung and the addition of super rookies... maybe they can aim for the world stage?

―Nah, that’s too much. Even the rotten water guilds in Korea are treated as the 2.5th group in the world, lmao

Public opinion was positive.

Two super rookies have debuted, something that hasn’t happened in the past 7 years. It was a situation where expectations could not help but rise.

Siwoo, who also confidently revealed his ambition, planted a positive image.

After successfully finishing the press conference.

Siwoo, who came out of the conference hall, asked curiously.

“Hyung, what are we going to do?”

“Oh, nothing in particular? Why?”

“You said you were going to show something big soon.”

“Oh, that? It was just lip service.”

To be precise, he did have a plan, but Siwoo was not included in it.

This was because the plan was structured in a way that did not allow for his inclusion.

‘It’s too dangerous.’

It was a situation where he had to enter a newly created gate.

It was too dangerous to take Siwoo with him to a gate with a significantly increased difficulty.

‘The exact strategy for clearing it is not known.’

The Dorim Guild had revealed some information about the first clear, but there was no guarantee that they had revealed everything.

Of course, they would have hidden the important stuff.

That’s why he was planning to go alone.

“Just focus on leveling up for now.”

“Yes, I will.”

“Okay. If you see any strange news, don’t be too surprised.”

“...Strange news?”

“There is something like that. You’ll find out everything when the time comes.”

He patted the guy’s shoulder as he tilted his head.

He got into his sleek sports car.

‘It’s easier to move around alone.’

When he first arrived here, the bodyguards were clinging to him like leeches.

Their role was to monitor him in case he got into an accident.

But it was different now.

As he had proven his competence on several occasions, they no longer forced him to have bodyguards.

Of course, they would still do it if he asked.

‘I don’t need them today.’

Because he didn’t need bodyguards.

‘I’ve also secured all the high-rank potions... .’

While spending time crafting.

He had contacted Choi Yuna in advance to request her to make potions.

This time, he had also paid more than half of the upfront cost.

A high-rank potion costs about 3 billion won each.

800 of them would be 2.4 trillion won.

It was too much to ask him to pay for it all by himself.

He also happened to have about 2 trillion won left.

Thanks to that, the potions were made quickly.

He paid for the remaining 1.2 trillion won with the deposit he had received for the equipment he had made in advance.

Entering this gate might allow him to exceed level 151.

That’s why he prioritized getting the potions.

He could still make the C-rank skill book 9-step at a higher level.

‘This will be his last potion work with Choi Yuna.’

A high-rank potion that can be consumed at level 151.

After that, he could not request the highest rank potions from the Korean Alchemist Guild.

‘There is no recipe.’

There is only one craftsman in the world who has the recipe for making the highest rank potions: Christine, known as the “Witch” of the United States.

It was believed she obtained the recipe from clearing a hidden gate.

‘It must be hard to break through security and obtain it.’

It’s also expensive.

This was one of the items that the United States was controlling the distribution of, a kind of lock for national interests.

If the rank was accurately determined, there would be a majority of people who would express their intention to clear it immediately.

“No, Sir! Get out of there quickly!”

The official who had been trying to persuade him continued to back away and shout.

Just then.

Swoosh...!

With a tremendous gust of wind.

Thud!

The gate spawned.

Just as he had expected, right at the point where the entrance was right in front of his nose.

‘See, I knew it.’

With just one step forward, he could devour this new gate.

His prediction was spot on.

The Dorim Guild Master, Lee Minjun, had his eyes gleaming.

It was sheer luck that he happened to be near the spawn location. Naturally, upon hearing the breaking news, he rushed over with his guild members at top speed.

But.

There was a strange guy hanging around near the spawn point of the gate.

‘...Is he crazy?’

If he was unlucky, it wouldn’t be strange for him to get crushed by the gate that suddenly popped out.

“What the hell is that guy doing? He’s not even following the instructions of the officials.”

“Isn’t that... Kim Minwoo?”

“What?”

“There’s the Money Talks Guild, right? He’s the guild master there.”

Oh?

Squinting his eyes, he realized it was really that guy.

‘What the heck? Did he come here to clear it alone?’

No, that couldn’t be it.

The rank of the newly spawned gate was unknown.

The observation department had to check it to get the exact rank.

It was a kind of identification process.

However, they could roughly guess the level by the flow of mana that was gathering.

Ah, it must be a pretty tough gate. Naturally, the breaking news had also reported that it would be at least B-rank.

But why was that guy here?

And he was alone at that.

‘Is he just a curious person?’

It wouldn’t be unreasonable to say that he came to watch.

But there were no crazy people who watched that closely.

Just then.

The gate spawned.

And it was so close that Kim Minwoo could just take one step and enter.

‘Surely, he won’t go in.’

It wasn’t a suicide mission either.

Going in there would be the perfect setup to get double the humiliation.

Gate clearing was no child’s play.

There were also many vested interests involved.

The process of selecting the group to clear it was also complicated.

There was a kind of rule for entering.

Even if the Sword Sect was here now, they couldn’t enter the gate without permission.

Fortunately, he didn’t seem to be completely crazy, as he didn’t show any signs of trying to enter.

He was just looking around the gate entrance, seemingly curious?

“Hey, you over there, bring him over politely.”

‘I guess we can just send him away.’

There was one thing that Lee Minjun, who had given the order, didn’t expect.

Cho Pilwook, the guild’s executive director and the chairman’s son, had a lot of animosity towards Kim Minwoo.

Cho Pilwook, who had been grumbling, rushed forward faster than anyone else.

After all, he was the one who had his NewTube debut ruined and was cursed by Chairman Cho.

It was all because of this damn bastard.

How much humiliation had he suffered from being compared to him?

He had even been threatened that he would never be able to participate in company affairs again.

So, it was only natural that he would lose his temper when this hateful bastard was hanging around the entrance of the gate that they had to clear right away.

‘Damn it!’

Good thing.

Now, with his 300-level power, he could just crush his shoulder a bit.

Cho Pilwook approached with a face reminiscent of a villain’s.

“Hey, you bastard! Get out of here right now!”

The moment Cho Pilwook, who had approached roughly, was about to grab Kim Minwoo’s shoulder, something pushed him hard on the shoulder.

His body was thrown forward by the unexpected impact.

As a result.

Thump!

Kim Minwoo, who was pushed forward before hitting the ground, was sucked into the gate.

“......Huh?”

“......Huh?”

“......Huh?”

“......Huh?”

“......Did he push him?”

“Th-this is breaking news!”

“E-emergency news! Kim Minwoo has just been sucked into the gate that was just created in Gyeonggi-do...!”
