After receiving a report from Pien that Seong-hyeon was heading to the association, the British Association was in full swing to prepare to welcome Seong-hyeon.
“hurry! over there!”
He had also received reports of minor frictions, so in order not to touch Seong-hyeon’s heart as much as possible, he was in the process of removing anything that could be a flaw.
“Im here!”
“After… take me.”
“Yes.”
Why did you come to Demarge?
According to the report, they did not seem to care much about the association, but looking at their progress so far, it was hard to believe those words.
Russia concealed its identity and raised a slum area called Chibu to the surface, and Egypt had an accident, but one of the top hunters was killed anyway.
“hello.”
“Ah, welcome to England. Hunter Kim Seong-hyun. This is William, the president of the association.”
Seeing William shaking hands with a bright smile as much as possible, Sunghyun responded with a light smile and held his hand.
William’s body trembled for a moment at Seonghyun’s magic that he felt through his hands.
William’s ability is the ability to tell a lot about the person he came in contact with.
Like the famous top-level hunter, it was the ability to show only how many abilities the target had if they had more magic power, and if the target’s magic power was less than theirs, it was the ability to tell what kind of ability it was.
‘What kind of number of abilities…’
Aside from the number of things, he did not think that Seonghyeon’s magic power would be greater than his own.
It was Seonghyeon, who was known to have less magic than the average of the top hunters, and William had a magic that was not inferior to that of the top hunters at all.
“A bad thing happened in Egypt, but the president of the association knows it. What was the cause of everything.”
“haha. of course. It was not enough to steal Hunter-sama’s wallet, he was punished for running such an inhumane organization.”
William’s answer was quite satisfactory.
In a way, it was no different than threatening Seong-hyeon to the president of the British Association that if he did something stupid, he could become like Egypt.
“Thank you for your understanding.”
“Then, could you possibly know the detailed reason for wanting to meet Demargue-sama?”
The question P.N should not have asked, but the president of the association was different, so Seong-hyeon took the crystal from his arms and handed it to the president of the association.
“crystal?”
A crystal that doesn’t feel magical at all, different from the normal crystal.
“Usually, crystals that consume all of their magic power become powder, but these crystals retain their original shape.”
“It’s definitely the first crystal I’ve ever seen.”
“I decided that there was no other use for this unbreakable crystal other than the crafting of equipment. Even if I injected magic power, it didn’t contain it.”
“So it is said that you visited the Academy Equipment Works in Korea and heard that you can’t know the results except for De Marge-nim.”
“you’re right.”
William was a very good communicator.
It was from the attitude of welcoming Seong-hyeon to the attitude that he would cooperate as much as possible.
“First of all, Demarge-sama is handling our request.”
“This is my personal request to the last, so I will check DeMarguet-sama’s wishes first, and even if he accepts it, I will try to make sure that there will be no problems with the British request.”
“First of all, all of our quests will be finished by the day after tomorrow. I don’t know what DeMarge-sama’s intentions are, but lately he’s only been answering requests from the national level, so I can’t give you a definitive answer.”
This was the attitude that Sung-hyun wanted.
To accurately separate public and private matters and tell them exactly what is and what is difficult.
“Then can you share this with me?”
“Is this… me?”
A very rare crystal that has never been discovered before.
No matter how much I am the president of the association, I would like to entrust such a crystal to myself, whom I have no trust in since I met him for the first time today.
“yes. As the president of the association said, if you only respond to requests at the national level, it would be fine to show them first.”
“All right. I’ll pass this on to you today and give you an answer. Do you have a place to stay?”
“Isn’t it too late to find it now?”
“If not, I will guide you.”
“thank you.”
Since there was no more conversation to be had, Seong-hyeon got up and handed over to the president of the association first this time.
“There was an unfortunate incident at the airport, but I would appreciate it if you could understand.”
“It’s just that you worked hard. I don’t care at all.”
“thank you.”
“Oh, and please don’t let that crystal do anything.”
It was a bit of a burden for the president of the association.
Because it was a situation where I could ask Demargue to do this and that.
“If you don’t want to sit with me, the crystal can’t do anything but look.”
“I’ll do my best…”
I was a little skeptical, but it wasn’t just trust.
“Then please.”
“Yes. All right.”
After shaking hands, Seonghyeon left, and the president of the association sighed heavily and leaned on the sofa.
“Whoa… I’m trembling.”
Rarely have I been so nervous when I met someone as I ascended to the position of president of the association.
In England, unlike other countries, the basic affiliation of all hunters is the association.
So, even when I met the top hunter, I didn’t get so nervous.
“It was like meeting the Queen.”
In addition to the overwhelming magical power, the subjugating atmosphere is an added bonus.
It feels like a national crisis will come if we make even the slightest mistake.
Still, seeing that precious crystal was entrusted to him, he seemed to have given him some trust.
————————–
“Can I come in for a moment?”
The president of the association visited De Margue, who was in the midst of equipment production.
“Ttt, to say “don’t come to me when making equipment” means simply not to come.”
However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not neglect a person as high as the president of the association.
“Come on in.”
“Sorry for working. I have something important to do.”
“Is it important?”
It was a handshake that came to Demargue’s grim expression while he was still working.
However, since there was no time other than now, the president of the association quickly brought up the main topic.
“Do you know Kim Seong-hyun Hunter?”
“Are you talking? If you don’t know, you’re an idiot.”
“Haha… Anyway, Hunter Kim Seong-hyun came to visit. Demarge has something to do with you.”
“For me? Please tell me there is nothing to see. Oh, please tell me that Elixir was well written.”
As expected, DeMarguet responded sternly to anyone’s request.
Even the expression on his face now seemed like he had no intention of answering any request anyway, so don’t bother me and go.
“You asked me to check this while entrusting you. Why don’t you just check…”
“crystal? Just checking the crystals…”
De Marguez, who looked at the crystal from the arms of the association president with a questioning look, changed his attitude in an instant when he saw the crystal that did not feel what he should feel.
“for a moment. What is this…”
Crystals that do not feel magical power were not usually ordinary objects on the surface.
“How the hell did you get this?!”
“I don’t know about that…”
“It’s such a crystal…”
DeMarguet tried to look around the crystal with the equipment he was working on.
“Ah, I’m sorry, but Hunter Kim Seong-hyun said that if he wasn’t going to meet him, he couldn’t do anything but watch.”
“…her.”
Kim Seong-hyun.
I remember him from the first time we met during the Academy Competition.
An unusual figure for a first-year to advance to the competition.
He was a memorable person back then, but looking at his progress so far, it was strange that he could not remember.
“Are you threatening me with this?”
“Tongue, even threats…”
“This is not a threat, what is it! Tug, ask me when you want it.”
“It seems that you are okay at any time after our request is finished.”
DeMargue wasn’t the only British request, the sooner the better.
“All right. Then I will finish everything by tomorrow, so please tell me to come right away.”
“Until tomorrow? Is it possible?”
A voice filled with concern that there might be a problem with the equipment due to the delayed schedule.
Demarge wrinkled his brows as if he had recognized the voice.
“It doesn’t change anything that goes faster. Just do today what you have to do tomorrow.”
“Oh, I see. Okay. Then I will tell you that.”
The president of the association left quickly so that DeMargue could concentrate.
“After all, that crystal doesn’t leave my head.”
If I felt like it, I wanted to get rid of all the quests right now and pour all my time into the crystal.
“Kim Seong-hyun…”
I really didn’t like it.
There was no other fox that knew his weaknesses very accurately and dug into them.
But on the other hand, I was also grateful that I had exactly what I wanted and brought it.
“Be grateful.”
DeMarguet put all of his energy into completing the quest that would normally end tomorrow.
The only time I’ve been concentrating on this for a long time has never been before I’ve made a name for myself.
————————-
“Did you finish faster than expected?”
Demarguet in front of him looked quite tired.
Dark circles and slightly out-of-focus eyes represent how focused I was today.
“…it’s none of your business.”
“What. Yes. You know how to do it well.”
“Such cheeky…”

Maybe he didn’t have the strength to fight back, so Demarge stopped what he was saying and looked at the crystal in Seonghyeon’s hand.
“Hmmm. So why did you ask to see me?”
Asking the question again even though I already knew it all seemed to still hurt Seonghyeon, who threatened him with crystals.
“After listening to everything, what else…well, will you check it out?”
“Hmm…”
It looked like he was worried, but Sunghyun knew it.
It’s an effort to hide the pounding as much as possible.
“Once we have a seat, is it possible to check?”
“sure. Check it out as many times as you want.”
When Seong-hyeon’s answer fell, Demarge grabbed the crystals from Seong-hyeon’s hand as if waiting, and began to check this and that.
Try injecting magic power, measure the strength, or check something else using special equipment.
Each time, there were exclamations of oh or um, and Seonghyeon watched it as if it were fun.
After checking the crystal for almost an hour, DeMarguet handed the crystal to Seonghyeon again with a slightly recalled expression and sat down.
“Wow! Are you all over now?”
“All my business is over.”
“What? What…”
“Do you have anything to do with me?”
“My, what do I have to do with you?”
The trembling eyes could not be hidden.
“If not. Thanks for checking it out.”
When Seong-hyeon got up from his seat and was about to leave, Demarge hurriedly called for Seong-hyeon.
“Come on, wait!”
“Why?”
“The crystal. There is no one else I can do.”
“yes. That’s great.”
“Oh no! Why can’t I understand your words like this? Will you make me use that crystal?”
“I don’t really care…”
“…let me do it.”
Seonghyeon answered with a smile, thinking that she shouldn’t be joking around anymore.
“Absolutely. There is no one else who can help you but Demarge-sama. Well then, thank you.”
“…the wicked one.”
Contrary to his words, Demarguet’s expression was as bright as a child’s birthday present.
