Chapter 11

“Please?”
Eden’s eyes widened at my words. He looked suspicious. As if he didn’t expect me to say this.
“Yes please?”
“What is it?”
“I want to go to a dungeon.”
“Dungeon?”
“Yes, I want to raise my level.”
“Oh.” Eden nodded, as if realising something. “Okay, you want me to set you up in a D-rank dungeon, right?”
“Eh?”
I was taken aback for a moment because he said it so naturally. Unlike what I expected. Didn’t Loki Guild prevent Han Yi-jin from going to the dungeon?
“But why is there no title attached?” Feeling uncomfortable, I asked Eden.
“I’m going to the dungeon myself. To clear it.”
“What?”
Then Eden looked at me strangely, as if he had never heard me say those words.Finnd new chapters on nove/lbin(.)com
“Why? Usually, you don’t even try to get close to monsters because they’re disgusting. That’s why when you go to dungeons, Nana’s combatants force you to just raise your level...”
“...”
Fuck, you were the main enemy. Han Yi Jin!
Filthy bastard. Did he think the monster was disgusting? A sigh came out that he didn’t even dare to attack the dungeon while babbling pathetically.
Of course, I might be afraid to see monsters in person, but it’s more important to survive now than anything else.
“Hmm, I should have at least one title.”
Eden’s face became subtle again as I murmured awkwardly.
“Since when did you care? Are you really going to...”
“Ah, so you’re coming or not?” When I asked with a frown, Eden quickly changed his face and asked back.
“When did I say I wasn’t going?”
“...”
What a simpleton bastard. He was almost coaxed now. I squinted and stole a glance. “You’re not going to tell the guild master, are you?”
“Hmm.”
Eden looked distressed for a while. However, he would not want to betray the guild master openly. I waited for Eden’s answer, restless inside but pretending not to be. If Eden refuses, there is no way out of here.
‘He lives like he always hides in the Loki Guild. Should I infiltrate the guild? Or should I destroy them all and take him out?’ Kang Yoo-hyun stroked his chin as he contemplated the tantalising thought.
“More importantly, do you know what the dungeon ratings are these days?”
“...”
Park Yoon-sung, who was hesitating, brought up a sensitive topic. These days, abnormalities have been discovered in dungeons across the country. Each guild periodically cleared dungeons to prevent waves of monsters from occurring. But dungeons, which were clearly low-grade, had gotten strange in recent years. This was because abnormal things suddenly happened during clearing.
Coincidentally, the first time such an incident occurred overlapped with when Kang Yoo-hyun returned from the gate. So some bad media outlets held Kang Yoo-hyun responsible for the dungeon anomaly.
“Yes, I know.”
“...Is the cause...”
Kang Yu-hyun answered Park Yoon-sung’s careful question. “Yeah, it’s probably because of me.”
“Hoo...”
At the last gate, the twisted space-time, Kang Yoo-hyun ironically wished to return to his original world. It was a lingering desire that he could not discard for more than 300 years.
But until then, he thought he had no regrets. Three hundred years had passed and he thought he had abandoned his ego long ago. But that’s just his illusion. When he was given a choice at the final gate, he chose to return to his original world, as if for granted.
And as a result, the dungeon difficulty level began to increase greatly due to the emergence of SS-class hunters, which was unprecedented in the world.
Park Yoon-sung’s brows furrowed as Kang Yoo-hyun immediately confirmed with his mouth.
“If you want, we can try to stop the press as much as possible with the power of the Odin Guild. So...”
“No, there’s no need.” Kang Yoo-hyun, who spoke decisively, continued in a calm tone. “It was my choice, so I will be responsible for the consequences.”
Kang Yoo-hyun’s words made Park Yoon-sung happy. If he tried to avoid it, it would be beyond the power of even the Odin Guild. Park Yoon-sung replied in a pleasant tone. “Then I’d like you to take on a mission that focuses on dungeon abnormalities.”
“Alright.”
Dungeons, whose ratings were changed during missions are sometimes restored after completing them. Kang Yoo-hyun might not be able to clear many dungeons alone, but his SS class would be a great asset in the future.
“This is a list of dungeons with major anomalies.” Park Yoon-sung handed the data to Kang Yoo-hyun as if he had been waiting. In fact, today’s biggest topic was not the contract, but dungeon abnormalities.
Kang Yoo-hyun, who received the data, turned the paper over with an indifferent face. “Should I start with a higher rating dungeon?”
When asked by Kang Yoo-hyun, Park Yoon-sung shook his head. “No, lower ratings are more dangerous.”
“Why?” When Kang Yoo-hyun raised his eyebrows at the incomprehensible answer and asked, Park Yoon-sung continued in a serious tone.
“The lower the rating of the dungeon, the worse the anomaly. Recently, there was a case where a D-rank dungeon suddenly changed to A-rank in the middle.”
In the first place, high-rating dungeons didn’t have a very high abnormality range. The problem was the lower-rating dungeons managed by low-class hunters. Many hunters were killed due to extreme abnormality.
Each guild that belatedly figured out the situation sent hunters to the lower-rating dungeons, but it took a long time because there were so many lower-rating dungeons. The dungeon must be cleared until the next wave of monsters. That’s why Park Yoon-sung wanted Kang Yoo-hyun, who would be of great help, to sort the dungeon from the lower-rating dungeon.
“I understand. I’ll do that.” Kang Yoo-hyun agreed, bowed his head and went through the data again. One dungeon in particular caught his eye. Incidentally, the rating was D-rank.
“Then I’ll start from here.”
Looking at the dungeon that Kang Yoo-hyun pointed to, Park Yoon-sung answered yes. Even though the dungeon wasn’t managed directly by the Odin Guild, the guild that requested it often complained about the lack of manpower to manage it. Kang Yoo-hyun, who had never dreamed of meeting anyone there, just turned his head nonchalantly.
