166 Daddy's too strong. Episode 165.

In the 21st century, the whole world, including Korea, was simply the era of Hunter.

a sudden change in perception ten years ago The emergence of monsters. Skill acquisition through state window acquisition and awakening. The emergence of powerful monsters, which ordinary people can't match, has terrified the world, and hunters, who have the power to wake up and confront monsters, have become simply objects of envy and awe.

Hunter Management Bureau announces new core target members!

Chung Young-chul, Director of Hunter Management

"Central attack members will be ranked within the top 10."

The new member... .... to participate in the central tutorial at the end of August.

And now, the hottest topic in the world was directly related to the core.

Unlike just a few months ago when we couldn't move any further from the entrance to the center.

He had finished attacking the second floor of the center. As a result, the first attack squad has emerged as a superstar for people around the world, and its share price has been on a steady rise.

Behimos is really the best. How can he survive in such a terrifying place?

The level of other S-class hunters in Korea is no joke. I personally really like Han Min-ji Hunter.

Key! Mother, here's a bowl of gukppong!

Comments on Hunters Management Bureau's official website on the attack status at the center.

Reading the comments in his office, Jung Young-chul checked out the metal watch he was wearing on his wrist.

8:30 in the morning. There is an hour and a half left until the meeting is held in connection with the attack on the center, and Jung Young-chul took out his smartphone and sent a text message to Do-jun.

as is the case with ordinary office workers

Civil servants were also supposed to take a rest on Sundays.

But Dojun had to stop by Hunter's office today.

The reason was none other than the meeting due to the central attack.

The meeting starts at 10 o'clock.

It was better to go early and settle down than to be late.

The white shirt's necktie was loosened slightly to check the reflection in front of the full-body mirror. Jung Young-chul asked me to come in comfortable clothes, but now that he is used to formal attire, he was comfortable in neat suits when going out.

[Director, I'm Jung Young Chul. May I ask when you will arrive?]

a letter from the Director

Given that it takes about half an hour to get to Hunter Administration by subway.

It should arrive by 9:30 at the latest. Dojun replied to the director that he would arrive at 9:30, and the director said, 'Okay, five minutes later. Officer in charge,' he texted.

the Hunter Administration Bureau

On the seventh floor, there were two employees in the conference room.

Kim Min-soo and Kwon Hyun-suk of the general affairs team. They had been in the office since Sunday morning to make a final inspection of the conference room because of today's central meeting. In fact, I finished all the preparations on Friday night, but I came here to confirm the director's instructions to make a final inspection in the morning.

Tuk tuk.

"Oh, ah. Mic test. One, two, three."

"It's coming out well. Senior."

"What about the beam project?"

"I checked earlier, but there was nothing wrong."

"How's the PPT material coming out?"

"I think I've checked it about 100 times."

"Let's check one last time. Just in case."

A meeting involving the Director of Hunter Management and 10 S-level Hunters.

If the equipment doesn't work well or is not properly prepared at the meeting.

It was clear that the team leader and the directors above would be filmed for great certainty. Kwon glanced through a pile of documents related to the central tutorial placed on the podium.

"It was almost like a portrait until a year ago. I couldn't go to the tutorial because I've done it more than 20 times. Don't tell me to change the director. We talked a lot, right? Was it about five years ago when I first did the dive? I've been walking in place all of a sudden, and I'm getting on the right track."

"Because it's the Behimos. I couldn't go to the tutorial area because I didn't have a ticket, it's not that I'm not bad at it. Didn't you watch the video? First floor, second floor, flying around."

"......yes."

Behimos' movements were almost divine.

Like people who know the central information, as if they've already been here once.

Their course of action was like a wild-free laugh.

"You've seen it all now, haven't you?"

"Yes."

"We have about 50 minutes before the meeting begins. Sit down, relax, and leave at 9:30.…."

Kim Min-soo couldn't finish his words.

A sudden sound of footstep in the hallway.

The sound grew closer and closer, and the front door of the conference room banged open.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, my God.…."

with one hand clasped to the doorknob

A man who breathes heavily.

The staff of the general affairs team flinched at the momentum.

The man, Ryu Jun-yeol, raised the corners of his mouth, clenched his fist, looking at the clock hanging on the wall of the conference room.

"Safe."

Kim Min-soo and Kwon Hyun-suk looked at each other.

The moment when I was about to bow down to greet Liu Jun-yeol, the king of Chang.

Again, the sound of running from the hallway stopped and swallowed.

The new arrivals were Kang Min-hyuk and Moon Ae-kyung.

Then, gasping for breath, Ryu Jun-yeol straightened his posture and said, pretending to be calm.

"Hurry up and go."

"......Ryu Jun-yeol, you got here unexpectedly fast?"

"Isn't that obvious? Uh, I couldn't sleep in the morning thinking of seeing the chief."

Ryu Jun-yeol shrugged.

"This body is. He's very thorough. I would never do anything that would offend you. Take an example."

"......a little fishy. Well, it's true that you came early."

Kang Minhyuk.

I saw drops of sweat running down Ryu Jun-yeol's neck.

I sat down pretending not to know.

The current time is 9:15. Fortunately, I was able to follow the director's instructions to come by 20 minutes.

Boom boom!

Another sound of footsteps is heard in the hallway.

***

The Hunter Administration on Sunday was quieter than on weekdays.

Hunters, guilds and management who use the civil service room on the first floor, which runs daily.

Dojun passed by the mayor's office and stood in front of the elevator.

Thing.

The elevator door opens when it arrives on the first floor.

There were already two men in the elevator who looked like employees here.

The two, who were in the middle of talking, confirm that they came to the first floor and get off the elevator.

"I've never seen S-classes like that before."

"I know. I've never seen you in a hurry before on duty...…."

Kwon Hyun-suk stopped talking and turned his head back.

Then I got on the elevator and looked at the Dojun pressing the floor button for a moment.

The elevator soon began to go upstairs.

"Why?"

asked Kim Min-soo.

"No, I think I've seen him somewhere."

"Have you seen it? How many employees do you have here? Do you remember everything?"

"Surely..." Ah! He used to be an intern here. Why do you do all the work you do when you join the intern report? I looked up your face because you won first place."

"What department do you work in now?"

"I'm not an employee here."

"What?"

Kwon Hyun-suk shrugged.

"I hear you're a public servant."

***

I didn't mean to.

Dojun happened to enter the conference room just in time for 9:30 p.m.

But what happened? Everyone who was supposed to attend today's meeting sat down, and Dojun checked his wristwatch again. It's 9:30. The meeting starts at 10 o'clock.

Do-jun sighed as he looked at Jung Young-chul sitting right next to the head of the meeting table.

"I'll have to come on time next time."

on the outside, pretending to be fine

I could feel the pulse of some S-class hunters beating violently.

It was also vaguely possible to guess why.

The meeting ended earlier than I thought.

First, after hearing a briefing on the progress of the advance team, Behimos.

They discussed how to organize the next attack squad.

And as a result, it was concluded that Kang Min-hyuk and Han Min-ji will be transferred to the next member.

"If both teams are in the center, we need S-classes who can 'outside' take care of Korea, so let's just wait for the other five."

Chung Young-chul's conclusion.

In fact, not much of Dojun's opinion went into this.

I didn't have anything to point out, and it didn't matter how I organized the members.

The central part of the attack was all about "hunters."

And I don't get it.….'

Kang Min-hyuk, who heard about the tutorial, said,

I recalled the fact about the conditioned snake I got from step 3.

In the central part, the existing state window used on Earth is sealed.

It was the conditioned snake that helped mankind survive in the center.

As the growth limit is set according to the stage of the snake in the state, the tutorial was so important that it could be said to be the end at the beginning.

The moment you enter the 1st floor of the center, you start at the level of a normal person.'

Status window starting at 0%.

It is said that the higher the proficiency, the stronger the exponentially.

However, if you think so, it means that Dojun was no different from them until he built up his skills. But how did he manage to hit the fourth floor unrivaled?

A glimpse.

Kang Minhyuk is filled with Dojun's wrist.

I glanced gently at the thin bracelet.

A conditioned snake, also wearing a Bechimos guild.

On the surface, it was not much different from that of Bechimos Hunters.

No, it's no exaggeration to say that it's the same.

'..........'

At that moment.

Scary!

0.1 second. It was a moment.

Kang Min-hyuk felt a great deal of pressure from the bracelet that Do-jun was wearing.

In this space, eyes met with a snake that was huge enough to fill the Earth.

The other Hunters seemed to have gone through the phenomenon just now, apparently to himself.

'Fantasy...... is it?'

Not to say so.

It was so clear.

The next day, Monday.

the Crack Management Division of Seoul City Hall

Department staff are gathered in front of a large wall-mounted OLED TV in the office.

Yesterday, Hunter Management Office decided on a member of the next central attack team through an internal meeting. The members of the attack team were decided to be Kang Min-hyuk and Han Min-ji Hunter from Icarus Guild. Hunter Management Director Chung Young-chul says Icarus Guild's first dive will begin as early as late this month.

The news showed some footage of Bechimos Guild's central broadcast.

A tree growing in the blazing lava zone, a civilization created by adventurers on top of Igdrasil. Strange and enormous creatures and strange artifacts that I've never seen in my life.

A harsh and harsh environment enough for most hunters, let alone ordinary people.

In addition, the video showed adventurers from other planets fighting each other.

In the eyes of the general public, it was simply a war of stars.

Ji-ying.

The screen changes.

There is a scene in which Lee Kang-hyun, a swordsman, fights a monster.

The sight of the milky glare flying on the black road is impressive.

"Amazing, really."

Kang Chul-soo, who was watching TV with his arms folded, muttered.

Sitting in his seat, he looked at Dojun, who was working silently.

Do-joon seemed not interested in the news about the center, which is being dealt with in the news.

a smirk

Kang Chul-soo turns to the TV again.

'Well, we don't have anything to do with the heart.'
