94 – Tempal (2)
“What? ..3 Hours? Did you just say three hours?”
Loha’s Bugilma Gwangsoo asked back in disbelief.
“That must be enough.”
The man answered calmly.
“Did you hear? They said it’s been three hours since you came.”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen someone talk nonsense like that seriously.”
Not only Gwangsoo, but all the guild members who watched the conversation of the two did not believe it.
Kwangsoo’s eyes narrowed and became narrow. His eyes scanned the man’s gear.
‘Two unique-class custom armor and an unknown sword….’
The man’s answer was enough to knock him over the head, but
I thought maybe it could be.
‘I just finished killing the boss mob in 5 seconds with Sol.’
Kwangsoo, who watched the survival test in real time earlier, was surprised by a couple of things from that man.
Blindness is an abnormal class. But I keep my eyes open.
‘Besides.’
The strength of that man he showed in survival was a strength that could not come from the body of an F-rank hunter.
‘I heard that this year’s top prospect is Hunter.’
Although he was Gwangsoo, the assistant of a small guild, he had heard and recognized many things as he was a second-in-command in a guild.
‘If only there was one person like this in my guild!’
The size of the stagnant guild will grow, and the gate will be monopolized to create greater profits.
Kwangsoo’s eyes shone.
“Do you have any guilds?”
“I haven’t joined any guilds yet.”
“Is that so?”
Gwangsoo was satisfied and quickly thrust his hand into his chest and pulled out something from him and held it out.
“I’ll start with an introduction. I’m Yang Kwang-soo, a bugilma from the Loha Guild. This is my business card.”
“Ah….”
It was a sudden reaction for a man, but he did not embarrass Kwang-soo’s hand.
The man crumpled the business card he received into the blue armor dance.
“This is a sudden statement, but I will tell you without delay. I want to scout you to our guild.”
“Yes?”
The man’s eyes widened, and the shoulders of the guild members who were watching were shocked.
‘Suddenly?’
‘Are you inviting me to join now?’
‘Mr. Bugil’s not the kind of person who would act spontaneously like that….’
‘That picky Kwang-soo gave me his business card as soon as he saw me? Not even properly grasping the opponent’s skills?’
In the memories of the guild members, Bugilma Yang Kwang-soo was a picky person.
Everything must be executed according to the plan,
Something like improvisation is completely excluded from my head.
“I’m only an F rank.”
Kwangsoo hurriedly adds.
“It doesn’t matter. It’s unusual for an F-rank to join a guild, but if it’s you, I’d definitely like to go ahead with the contract. I already watched it from survival, oh, and…… “
Kwangsoo’s words sped up.
“We can match the terms of the contract as much as Siwoon wants, we will set the raid profit settlement rate to a level higher than that of a C-class hunter, and we can also give you an advance deposit without regret. I will give my strength so that I can be active as the 1st group of the……… “
The female healer who was watching her tapped the shoulder of her colleague next to her and put her mouth on her ear.
-Did you hear what Bugilma was saying? They said they let F-types work in the 1st team. Pay the contract……. I thought he was an idiot, but he must be quite famous.
-You know the nature of Bugilma. A person who doesn’t spend a single penny for no reason….
For an F-class hunter, the guild’s assistant lowering his stance was an unprecedented sight in the hunter world.
“Um….”
Kwang-soo hurriedly opens his mouth when the man’s reaction is not good even though he presented unconventional conditions.
“Our Loha guild is not a large-scale guild, but we have a lot of brokers who search for the gate, which is the source of money for the hunters, and deliver the location! We only selected brokers with good eyes and diligence, so if you come to our guild…… “
“I have no idea yet, sorry. The business card you gave me is sincere, so I will keep it.”
“……… Yes?”
Kwangsoo was taken aback.
There’s no way an answer like this would come flying.
‘Why?’
At a situation where there was no recommendation to scout an F rank, Bugilma directly stepped forward and groaned.
Also, the terms of the contract you proposed were conditions that the lowest ranks could never shake off.
“Why?”
Kwangsoo asked as if he couldn’t understand. Why? As if to say, his eyes were also strong.
“The guild has no idea yet. Next time we have a relationship, I will think about it again.”
I just cut it off and turned it down.
I couldn’t give up yet, so even though my pride was scratched, Kwang-soo’s mouth opened.
“Hmm, is it because you don’t like the terms of the contract? I will adjust the conditions as much as I can so that you will not be disappointed.”
Bugilma’s voice was full of earnestness, but the man just shook his head and smiled.
“As I said, I have no idea, I have to finish hunting.”
“……….”
The mineral water froze,
A Hunter’s nervous voice was heard from behind.
“Hey! Are you going to charter a dungeon or get out of the way? I couldn’t catch a single mob because of you all the way here.”
“No, I am on an important quest. I’m sorry, but I’ll be the boss of this area for a week.”
“What?”
Kwang-soo stopped Hunter from trying to narrow the distance with Si-woon.
“Mr. Bugilma?”
“Next time. Get off at once.”
“No, Mr. Bugilma, what are you doing!”
Kwangsoo tapped the hunter’s shoulder, looked at the pilgrims one by one, and gestured toward the exit.
“Today, everyone is withdrawing. Those who speak up will be forcibly excluded from the selection for this Awakening Gate!”
“Yes… ….”
“Yes, yes.”
“Kuhm! Well, I see.”
As soon as the word ‘Awakening Gate’ was spat out, the members rolled their eyes and closed their mouths.
Kwangsoo, who was walking toward the exit flapping his cloak, looked back.
“Siwoon. We will fall for you once, please consider this as a sign of my sincerity, and please contact me later. I’ll wait.”
The cloaks covering their backs fluttered in unison and disappeared.

Beep! When the sword split the golem’s legs,
Thump! Fire ignited from the back of the golem as it slumped to the ground with its severed shin, and began tearing through the cold hide.
Chur!-.
The golem’s groan may have meant that he begged him to take his last breath.
Chin.
Siwoon’s lips opened in front of the drooping golem.
“Youkai transformation.”
I had to try it once.
Actually. Because I didn’t have the time to use this skill.
At that time.
What appeared in front of Siwoon’s eyes was looking around with ears stretched straight out, then wandered around in front of a golem whose lower body was smashed to death.
“Sniff sniff!”
It buries its sharp nose on the severed surface of the massive golem leg and sniffs it.
“There you go, fox. No monster.”
When Siwoon spoke, the fox turned his head and looked at Siwoon.
“Karang! Karaaang!”
The round eyes of a fox the size of a small dog were covered with black pupils, which could have made it look cute at first glance, but her eyes were like those of a wildcat with flesh flowing through them.
Chur! Coo uh!
“Kagagagak!”
Pasik-
As if I didn’t want to hear the golem’s roar, I pressed my little foot against the golem’s head and crushed it.
Yellow brain water sprayed over the shattered golem’s head, and the golem’s pupils blurred.
-You have killed the Ice Golem.
“Wow, how strong is that?”
I couldn’t help but exclaim when I saw that a golem dozens of times bigger than he had fallen asleep with just one angry kick from the fox.
Chin-chin-chin-
The fox came to Siwoon and spread his fangs and purred! Distanced
He erects white fine hair covering his whole body as if he is of one temperament despite his small subject.
As if they would rush at it right away.
“Fox, I am the summoner who summoned you. Don’t be rude.”
“Kareung! Karleung! Gaaak…. Ah! Oh, what, what … do you speak? Language?”
The barking fox is embarrassed when the words come out of his mouth.
“You can use human language. And as I said, I am your summoner, and you are my summoner. It’s nice to see you for the first time, but it’s smaller than I thought.”
“Shut up! Kang! How dare you say that this body is small! Are you insulting me!”
The development was roughly as expected.
Intimacy is displayed in the ‘Youkai’ skill window, and the intimacy is ‘0’.
“Summons? Master? Kang! Like you! This body bows only to the awakened blind!”
The swaying tail running behind him snapped! Hardened and sharpened
If you get cut or touched by that tail, you have a feeling that at least one of your fingers will just fly away.
“Kang! Come on, Kaang! You’re not blind Because I keep my eyes open.”
As if wishing for Siwoon to deal with him, he approaches on all fours and aims his long tailed blade at Shiwoon.
“Kang? What about that tattoo?”
The fox’s eyes stopped and turned to the tattoo on his collarbone, visible through the gap where the armor straps were lowered and loosened.
“See? This is proof that I am blind.”
“Kang! Really… It’s a tattoo that only blind people can make.”
Siwoon said to the fox, who was reluctant to live.
“Yeah, I know. This tattoo is a certificate engraved with the contract to walk the path of the blind at the blind job center.”
After confirming that the tattoo on him is a mark only for the blind, the fox slams his tail on the ground! Got off Sparks fly on the ground that the tail touches! Dig deep.
“You are indeed a blind man who has awakened.”
“You mean Shadow Murderer. That’s right, the awakened blind you speak of. Now you must be summoned to help me whenever I need it.”
“Kakakang!”
The transformed fox aimed his tail and jumped like lightning.
Peruk-
“Kwaaang!”
The fox, kicked in the stomach by Siwoon’s foot, corrects his posture and flies up again, swishing his claws at his face! Swing
Spear! Chanang!
The blades and claws collide wildly!
* * *
“Whoa- Whoa-“
This sound was the gasping sound of Siwoon covered in sweat,
“Kaang…. Kaaang….”
The sound above was a breathless sound coming from the corners of the fox’s mouth.
“Are you going to fight more? That little thing really counts.”
What surprised me while dealing with him was the viciousness of this fox who managed to block and avoid Siwoon’s sword attack, which contained tremendous strength, with its small claws, and rushed at it with clenched fists.
“Kang! The taste of blood makes me boil. Fight more…… Kien!”
Paak!
As the back of Acleus’s sword pierced the fox’s waist, the fox’s drooping eyes filled with resentment.
“Don’t be too upset. Because it’s one of the process of training you. I heard from the guide at the job center that you guys are so self-centered and only pick and follow strong ones.”
“Kaang! Boo, resentment…. This gnome. Do you think I am a simple fox?”
[The duration of ‘Youkai transformation’ has been exceeded.]
-The monster fox’s summoned object disappears because the duration has been exceeded.
“Kaang?”
The fox raises his neck and stares at his disappearing tail.
“Summoning timed out. For now, let’s end our first meeting here.”
“Kaaang! Next time you summon me, then this debt……… “
A fox disappeared without being able to speak.
“Whew-“
It was just as I had heard from ‘Mir’, a job site for the blind.
It is said that it is possible to shed a lot of sweat before you can freely use the Yokai skill.
‘It was a success to break his spirit from the first meeting.’
This was also a tip from Mir.
Youkai fox said that weak humans are perceived as inferior.
‘On the contrary, he shows loyalty to the one who oppresses him strongly, so he had no choice but to train him in the Spartan way.’
From noble mtl dot com

Sock!
Suddenly!
Suddenly!
Kooooo….
When the movement of the blade that cut through the air three times stopped,
The head of the golem was separated in the shape of a ‘ㅡ’, and the fallen head rolled on the ground.
The upper body,
It split in the form of ‘/’ and was divided into two halves,
Left leg,
It splits into a ‘ㅣ’ character and hangs in two pieces.
Thump! Cooong! Thud-
‘Do nothing, don’t expect anything to happen.’
Following the sentence he remembered, Siwoon continues to cut the ice golem.
The past.
I was proud of my effort, but that effort was just the kind of effort that others had no choice but to make.
‘I blamed myself for repeating failures and blamed God, even though I was an idiot.’
It was like that in the past 1st and 2nd rounds of life.
However.
It’s different now.
‘Efforts that everyone makes cannot be called efforts, and efforts that no one can make can be called efforts. When persistence is put into the bowl of such real ‘effort’, it becomes ‘whole body’, and that ‘whole body’ changes my way.’
That was my current mindset.
Siwoon’s eyes awake from his thoughts,
Keep your eyes open! While floating, I headed for the golem that was melting in the fire.
‘There’s a reason why I can easily slaughter an ice golem called a tank, and that reason….’
