18 – First commute with 2 apartments in Gangnam running at 140 per hour
“Whoa..”
The time when the warm morning sun starts to shine down.
I was standing on the side of the road on my first commute, slightly nervous.
Are, who said that if he waits here, he will pick up and go himself at the appointed time.
Regarding this, I was feeling anew that the basic treatment was different from the hunter guild of that bastard who threw an address and notified me to come back on time.
However, to be honest, the reason that made my heart flutter more than that was in another place.
‘I’m driving alone with a beauty who looks just like my older sister. If this is luck in its own way, is it good luck?’
Although it hadn’t been long since I met him, and even though he was a person I met in connection with the official work of the workplace, I was nevertheless quite attracted to the lady named Iare.
Of course, the root cause of that crush was because of the extremely simple reason that she has a face that resembles Sooyoung noona so much.
‘You can’t be easily shaken just because your face looks alike… I’m also a very simple human being.’
At that time when I was feeling a bit bitter while thinking about that…
-Kik!
The next moment, a sports car stopped in front of me.
The moment I saw it, my eyes automatically widened.
‘No way?…Ah… no matter how hard it is, that’s probably not the case..’
The moment I saw it, I automatically thought it wouldn’t be this car.
Not for any other reason, but because I knew very well what it was.
‘Lomborghini Veneno.. That thing that has a market value of over 5 billion… It’s crazy. Two apartments in Gangnam are rolling down the road.’
I used to think I was earning decently at least for the salary part with a monthly salary of 500, but a monster with a price that I couldn’t even see from my point of view, which couldn’t exceed the level of the common people.
At that time, when I was admiring it without even realizing it, the glass of the car slowly began to descend.
And inside…
The image of my older sister wearing sunglasses breaking my thoughts…
No, to be precise, Iare’s appearance began to appear.
“Hello, I’m here to pick you up.”
“Yes?.. Ah..n.. yes. Go.. thank you.”
At her words, I had no choice but to open the door with both hands and close it with a sense of security, feeling cautious even from touching the car door.
“sorry. I came here saying I was coming soon, but the car was blocked on the way.”
“Ah… no, it’s okay, I came out just in time.”
To Are’s words, which felt polite, I replied with a sense of perplexity on the contrary.
To be honest, from my point of view, it was nothing short of embarrassing that they had come to pick me up in a vehicle that was difficult to even see.
‘Come to think of it… It’s been quite a while since I’ve been in the passenger seat, right?… Driving has always been my responsibility.’
Recalling the time when I had to drive after all sorts of nagging with them riding next to me like a driver, I began to feel a strange emotion similar to Are’s appearance at the wheel.
“Then we will depart. It’s quite a distance and it’s late, so I’ll step on it a little.”
“Yes, yes.”
Are speaks in a voice that is both cautious and friendly.
However, when I heard her say this, I couldn’t help but laugh a little.
Honestly, I could tell that at this moment, Are was visibly nervous, like a young lady who had just gotten behind the wheel, except that she was wearing sunglasses.
Her hand holding the steering wheel trembled slightly, and she fidgeting with the gear button.
It was a look that automatically made me think that the car was ridiculously expensive, but that and driving skills were separate.
‘Well… but there are almost no cars in front of here, so it’s about 40 to 50, right? If you go out on the highway, it’s about 80…’
Me wearing a seat belt while thinking about that.
That moment..
-Bowaaang!!!!!
“?!?”
Along with the sensation of riding a roller coaster, I started to feel as if I was suffocating as my blood rushed momentarily.
‘What… what is this? What’s so fast?’
Are, who instantly starts to speed up ignorantly.
At first glance, looking at the dashboard of the car, which was just passing 90 mph, I was able to intuit that a much different picture would unfold than I had imagined.
No matter how bad the road conditions were, it was definitely a national highway with many cars running on it.
There are traffic lights, there are pedestrians, and there are cars running at 50 to 60 per hour, so if you make a move, it will lead to an accident.
‘No no, no matter how foreign it is, is it okay to drive like this on national highways? They say there’s no signal control, but this seems pretty dangerous… no, isn’t it?’
However, apart from my momentary concerns, as time passed and the car pulled onto the freeway with no problems, I began to feel my concerns slowly dissipate.
The speed was now over 140, but despite this, Areh ran while avoiding cars naturally as if he were doing a familiar acrobatic stunt.
In terms of driving skills, I looked at her with a dazed expression for a moment at her more proficient than me.
From the looks of it, Aare seems to be very accustomed to this type of driving.
The strange tension I felt at first seemed like it was a simple reason.
However, apart from that sense of relief, I began to recognize that the image of the person named Arela needed some tweaking.
‘This… is a lady with a surprisingly hot side? As expected, regardless of how she looks, she has a very different side from my older sister.’
If you think about it, unlike her older sister, who runs a small cafe and lives quietly with her daughter, in the case of Are, a hunter whose main occupation is combat.
In addition, considering the price of the car she is driving now, I could easily infer that she was adopted into a fairly wealthy family after breaking up with Soo-young when she was young.
As the worlds they have lived in are basically different, it was only natural that there were quite a few differences between the two sisters in their inner aspects.
After the shock of driving that I experienced at the beginning passed and some time passed,
I asked Are with a careful question.
“Come to think of it, I want to ask you a few things. May I ask you a question?”
“Yes, of course. Ask me anything.”
Are, who speaks with subtle tension in my words.
It didn’t seem like there was any kind of tension caused by driving, but from my point of view, I couldn’t clearly figure out what was the cause of this feeling that seemed to continue, just as it was when I got into the car just before, and it’s still like that now.
I gave up my interest in the part that I couldn’t figure out right away, and I carefully handed Are the question I wanted to ask.
“Sure, we’ll see each other soon. Before that, I’d like to hear a little bit about the other Hunters I’ll be in charge of. Not for any other reason, but as a colleague to work with in the future. Are you okay?”
“A colleague…”
At those words, the expression of tension on his face seemed to be slightly fading.
Then, with a slight smile on her lips, she opened her mouth again as she watched the road ahead for driving.
“As I said before, there are about 30 of us in total, but among them, the main ones are three including me. All of them have worked as A-class hunters in the Hunter Guild before becoming Black Hunters.”
“I see.. A grade.”
Beings that are one level lower than the S-class, but possess powers above that of the average hunter.
However, in my experience, A-class hunters were generally disappointing to operate alone like S-class hunters.
Unlike the S-class, which can be incomparable even in the middle of the Abyss, A-class hunters have limitations in their capabilities.
However, in fact, even to me who knows the internal situation of the military, I could say that it was natural in a way, because there was a law that in principle, in the case of S-class hunters, who can be said to be the strongest force in the country, they could not be discharged. .
Even if it is allowed to use expedients or put names on it, it is impossible to change the fact that the body belongs to the military.
Even if it was possible in other jobs, there was no S-class that became a black hunter who completely broke away from the military.
It is for this reason that a bitch like Na-sun, who has an immediate anger control disorder, has been able to stay in the military as an S-class hunter.
in other words,
Although grade A,
Are and the other two, who are driving next to me, could be said to be the most talented among the Black Hunters,
For me, who has to formulate a strategy going forward, this meant always keeping this in mind.
‘Certainly, it’s a bit inconvenient to operate as the power is much lower than before?.. No, in a way, at least you’ll listen better than those bitches, so it might be a little better situation…’
That was the time when I was about to ask more detailed questions about the other two after hearing the story about the power part.
“It’s all over, right over there.”
“Ah.. over there.”
The next moment, a huge building located on the outskirts of the city begins to appear in my eyes.
Unlike the Hunter Guild, there was no feeling of a military base.
“That place is the black hunter company Dreamout. This is the place where Jinhyun and I will work together in the future.”
