EP.65 Judgment of Fire (1)
next day.
＜Judgment of Fire＞ First work after joining as an intern.
I saw a familiar face in the clan tower elevator.
“uh? hi? See you right away.”
“… … .”
A short haircut with red hair that stands out today.
Shin Yuna turned her head as if she was embarrassed by something.
“Aren’t you even going to say hello? I feel sorry for you.”
“hi… .”
Where did Yuna Shin, who used to talk a lot during the battle, go?
Also, it seems that people change when they provoke.
Feeling the laughter coming out, I pressed the floor number of the elevator.
“Are you on the 25th floor? Hunting Team 5 department.”
Yuna Shin watched my actions without saying a word and opened her mouth.
“Hey, how old are you? I heard you were an academy student.”
“me? Twenty years old, why?”
“… But why do you keep talking nonsense? I’m a senior who graduated from the academy at the age of twenty-three.”
What, were you an idiot?
I replied with a smirk to her words.
“When we are three years old, we are almost friends. And you were the first to speak nonsense.”
“… … .”
If it bothers you, you should have said respect first.
Like Kwon Oh-jun, I didn’t ask from the first meeting.
Now, even if I ask you to say respectful words, it won’t come out.
Shin Yuna, lost for words in Jeongron, turned her head again.
Then, after a few seconds, he spoke again.
“I’m sorry for speaking nonsense in the first place. I was trying to provoke in Dalian, but it must have stuck in my mouth. If it’s okay now… ”
“Ah, okay, okay. Let’s just gossip with each other. You’re comfortable with it too-“
Shin Yuna closed her mouth for a moment and then nodded.
“Still, you have to respect the other clan members. Most of them are older than us, and they respect us too.”
“Did Team Leader Kwon Oh-joon speak nonsense?”
“that… .”
“It’s a joke. You know that tidy. don’t worry. I am not that tight.”
This story was quite acceptable.
To be honest, even with Shin Yuna, if the first button was sewn well.
I would have treated you as a senior by saying respectful things… .
From the first meeting, it started as a confrontation where they provoke, hit, and fight with each other, and now it’s rather awkward to say respectful words.
Shin Yuna added an ambiguous explanation.
“The title should be unified as Holder-sama. There is a distinction between general clan members and senior clan members, but regardless of their position, they almost always call me holder.”
“The chief? Last time I saw you, they called you the team leader.”
I asked because I remembered that Yuna Shin called Oh-jun Kwon as team leader the other day.
She nodded and answered my question.
“If you are in a special position such as a team leader or general manager, it is okay to call them by their title. The team leader has an official position as a senior clan member… The name itself doesn’t really matter. Instead, the Master or Deputy Master must be called by title.”
“Can’t you even put a chair on it?”
“yes. Master, Deputy Master. Everyone calls me like this.”
I don’t know what it is…
Suddenly we were talking about the clan.
so naturally.
I wonder if it’s true that we were fighting and provoking like that until yesterday, and that we were just awkward.
Shin Yuna’s expression also became much brighter than before.
Perhaps the appearance of teaching this and that, or the question and answer, made it clear that I was a newbie.
She must have been the youngest before I came in…
It will be fun just having the new maknae come in.
Shin Yuna, who looked slightly excited, asked me.
“Hey, do you have any other questions?”
“Are you curious? Well… ”
I pondered for a moment and then asked her.
“Is there anything else I need to do today? Because it’s my first job… I don’t know what I’m doing, I don’t know where I am.”
“Well. You’ll probably listen to OT on your first day of work. It is divided into two areas: Operational OT and Business OT.”
“orientation?”
“yes. Usually, you learn by designating a shooter. Clan work is similar to company work, there are many things to learn. But you’re an intern, so I don’t know how the shooter will be assigned… .”
Tiling-
And these worries after getting off the elevator.
As soon as I arrived at the department, it was resolved quickly.
25th floor.
Hunting Team 5 office.
The team leader’s office is located in the center of it.
Kwon Oh-jun, who he met there, said with a face that it was nothing special.
“it? Yuna, you can act as a shooter.”
“Are you buying? me?”
Shin Yuna, who was next to her, asked, as if it was the first time she had heard of it.
“uh. After all, Jaehyun is an intern, so long-term training for assistant gunners is difficult, so you or Yuna can take over for a short period of time. This is something she agreed to.”
I was a bit startled by the word ‘because I was an intern’, but it doesn’t seem like it’s unfair to say that Kang Joo-yeon also agreed.
After all, I’ve been working as a clan member for two months, and it’s arrogant to think that I’m going to absorb all the strengths of working in that clan.
I just had to learn everything I could learn in a short period of time and master the process of running a large clan.
“But I’m also a new clan member… ”
“Oh, I know. So did you leave it to me? Newbies know the feeling of newcomers best. In particular, Jaehyun is a special recruit, so he won’t know anything. talk well Don’t be too burdened because you only need to do the operation OT.”
Shin Yuna asked at Kwon Oh-jun’s cynical remark.
“Oh, I don’t do business OT?”
“Of course. You have to go out hunting or tactics, but will you leave that to a newbie? At that time, the senior clan member in charge of the operation will probably act as a gunner.”
In other words, it is not an official shooter.
I could see Shin Yuna’s expression softening at those words.
“All right.”
“Yes, yes. When I go to the operation meeting tomorrow, give me some good training so I don’t be fooled. Oh, but don’t take it too hard. Yuna and you, are you losing to Jaehyun?”
“that… !!”
When Kwon Oh-joon smiled and joked with ‘Pop’, Shin Yuna’s face turned red.
It’s a fact, so I can’t even counter it… .
For some reason, Shin Yuna becomes pitiful.
“I’m busy~ Get out, now.”
In response to Oh-jun Kwon’s congratulatory invitation, who didn’t even give us a chance to refute it, we left the team leader’s office and headed to another office.
Shin Yuna’s expression still doesn’t work out because she’s embarrassed.
She said as she walked down the hallway at a brisk pace.
“Oh, sometimes clan members who come in as juniors catch up with senior clan members. Because there are clear differences in runes and talents for each holder. So, that’s what the juniors who caught up did well, it’s not that the seniors lack skills. Do you know what I mean?”
What kind of rapid-fire rap are you doing?
Get rid of these long words in an instant.
I nodded my head roughly and nodded.
“You know, you know. Don’t be disappointed. You fought very well too. Out of all the warriors I’ve met, they’re standard enough to be counted.”
“… I’m not talking about… !”
She was in denial until the very end.
Losing isn’t necessarily something to be ashamed of, but it seems that the result of the match with me was quite embarrassing.
Anyway, after a light morning happening.
I came to Shin Yu-na’s seat in the Hunting Team 5 office and was learning about the clan and the team.
Orientation called ‘Operation OT’ that I was talking about earlier.
It was an OT of hell that lasted over 2 hours.
“… … These are the basic clan rules and precautions when using the clan tower.”
“… Too many.”
It’s the same no matter which orientation you attend…
Holder system rules.
There were a lot of cautions in the clan.
There were a lot of manners to be observed between holders, and there were many things to be careful about among clan members.
After listening for a long time, the topic of clan was finished.
Shin Yuna shook her head as if she was okay with my complaint.
“Relax. ‘Cause it’s almost over Now, all we have to do is talk about our team members.”
“Okay, ready. come in.”
“Foot-”
Shin Yuna burst into laughter at the lightly thrown joke.
It seems that she was tired of the long explanations and handovers.
Seeing you laugh at such a joke.
… You’re pretty because you’re smiling anyway.
It’s because her red hair is so conspicuous, Yuna Shin was also a beauty who could have been dashed several times during her academy days.
“Our 5 hunting team consists of 12 people in total. There are a total of two clan members for each major category, and this time you and Jooyeon Kang joined, so there are 14 members.”
“14 people? It’s a team, there are so many people?”
“yes. It is subdivided into Class B and Class C. There is one person for each class and rank.”
This means that there are two people in each of the six groups in the major classification, and the personnel were further subdivided into Class B and Class C from there.
Shin Yuna is one of the C-class warriors.
It’s a fairly large number for one ‘team’, but it wasn’t that many when it came down to class and grade.
After all, these are the core combat personnel of the ＜Judgment of Fire＞ clan.
Out of curiosity, I immediately asked a question.
“Then, when you go out for an operation, do you split it up like that? C-class goes to C-grade, B-grade goes to B-grade?”
“No, that’s not it. When a C-class party needs a leader or includes training personnel, B-class clan members come in. On the other hand, when there are not enough people in a B-class party, they are selected from the C-class.”
“ah… It’s not always six people going to a party.”
“yes. In the beginning, the minimum number of people in a regular party is 5 people.”
This is a boon for me.
If you are involved in the operation of a party that includes only C-class, you can go out for dungeon raids or field hunting that are a little lower than your current level.
As I had to accumulate as much experience as possible in two months, I preferred to participate in operations with moderately difficult difficulty.
Yuna Shin suddenly went through the desk and took out a well-coated booklet and handed it to me.
“Come on, this one.”
“what’s this?”
“Do Jaehyun, the seniors of the 5th hunting team that you should memorize from now on and the major holders in the clan. The team leader said he had a strategy meeting tomorrow, so you have to memorize it by tomorrow.”
“… … .”
is it a variable?
I don’t know much about the academy, except for a few, but I have to memorize all the members of the ＜Judgment of Fire＞ clan.
It’s like running a company.
… Is it similar to clan life?
“Do I have to memorize everything?”
“yes. I’ll check it out tomorrow morning. I’m giving you orders as your shooter, so you have to… !!”
What are your instructions as a shooter?
Until before, he was worried about how he, who was a newbie, would handle the shooter.
I sighed and handed the coated booklet.
Even when I came in as an intern…
Dungeon right away! Field hunting outside the barrier!
… I dreamed of something like
After all, clan life was not easy.
It seemed to be put into practice only after all theoretical and clerical processes were completed.
In fact, it was the same process for any group.
Suddenly, Shin Yuna clapped her hands and said.
“finished! Let’s go eat now.”
“Oh, lunchtime.”
I lifted my head at the expected time.
After I mastered [Cooking], I didn’t like other people’s food, but it’s always one of the joys of finding new foods and restaurants.
＜Judgment of Fire＞ My cafeteria.
I’ll have to check how delicious the rice here is.
Teammates who are not yet familiar with it went out first, and Yuna Shin and I were about to leave the office.
bang!
A door sounded like it was going to break, and someone stood in front of us.
Distressed hair and a somewhat desperate expression.
The clothes we saw yesterday and the still luxurious atmosphere.
… It was Kang Joo-yeon.
Where did you come from now?
Seeing that you’re all dressed up, I don’t think you overslept.
After she took a breath.
He looked at me and spoke slowly.
“rice… Eat together.”
“… … .”
Wanna have lunch together?
Are you running with the momentum to smash the office door to say this?
