Seo Hyun-woo left Ryu Seon-hwa alone and began to follow an unknown energy.
A cold, noble air was flowing from somewhere.
‘Is it possible to keep cool even when lava flows?’
Seo Hyun-woo feels his heart getting impatient, and knocks on the rock wall as he pleases.
It didn’t take that much time to communicate with Kangjin-ha Cerberus.
If they couldn’t find that object, it would be destroyed along with the dungeon as it is.
‘I think it will strengthen the freezing property.’
There was no mention of this in the original text.
Jinha Kang and Seonhwa Ryu did not even notice the existence of dogs, and perhaps even the observers were unaware of them.
‘Can I get stronger if I get this? If only I could survive against first-class monsters…’
– Only those with a noble and clean soul can receive Ronea. do you have that soul
A mysterious voice was heard from somewhere.
Seo Hyun-woo does not even make a sound of breathing and takes a step backwards slowly.
Ryu Seon-hwa had already drawn his sword, but Seo Hyun-woo was not even paying attention.
– …Your soul is not human. What kind of soul could be chosen by angels and dragons?
Seo Hyun-woo quickly recognizes the meaning of the word and just listens quietly.
It must have been about Runne’s blessing and the dragon’s protection.
– I can’t judge because it’s not human. However, because it is pure and great, it is impossible not to make judgments.
Seo Hyun-woo felt an unfamiliar magic from his left hand and straightened it out.
On the ring finger of his left hand was a blue tinged ring.
There were letters engraved on the surface of the ring, but since it was the first language he had seen, he could not interpret the meaning.
– Ronea, not me, chose your soul. This too must be fate, so I will allow it too.
Seo Hyun-woo looked around, carefully touching the ring that was caught on his left hand.
No more suspicious voices could be heard, and no cold sensation was felt.
“what are you doing?”
“yes? Oh, did you draw your sword?”
“Did you get pulled out at once?”
Ryu Seon-hwa answered while glanced at the sword wrapped in purple flames.
The blade was dyed jet black, and both blades were sharply forged.
Originally, the light gray was to be covered with bright red flames, but due to Ryu Seon-hwa’s ability, the color was completely reversed.
“Did you know it would be like this? So you brought me here?”
“…I don’t know.”
“Oh, you want to keep it a secret? Then I have to do it.”
Leviathan.
It was a sword that wielded the flames of hell and a deity that absorbed the souls of evil people.
The knight of the abyss, Oriax, was an undead, but he was also the commander of the knights who once led many soldiers.
After resurrecting from the abyss, he was able to connect with Leviathan to deal with the undead stained with malice.
As a result, Ryu Seon-hwa, who has the power of Oriax, was chosen as the master of the sword.
“But is it okay for us to be like this? They seem to be in the middle of a fight.”
“Will it be over? The dungeon is collapsing.”
The structure and background of the dungeon were gradually blurring.
It meant that all the monsters in the dungeon had been destroyed.
Even if they didn’t go through the gate, they would take them out to their original place.
“…how much do you know?”
“I know nothing.”
“I don’t think I know anything.”
“If you don’t know anything, there’s nothing to suffer.”
“It’s the other way around. Because I know a lot, I suffer more than others. Do you have a lot of work to do?”
Ryu Seon-hwa erases the shape of Leviathan and looks at Seo Hyun-woo.
I don’t know what kind of process he went through, but Seo Hyun-woo knew things that other people didn’t know.
It could be that he was simply insightful, but that alone would not be convincing.
“Where else did you get that ring?”
“this? I got lucky before.”
“I don’t think so…”
“I am not as great as you think.”
“It looks great to me. You became a Black Hunter as soon as you finished Miterichi, right? And since they have me too, it’s not enough to say that I’m amazing.”
“…”
Seo Hyun-woo frowned and felt a sense of déjà vu.
I thought that Ryu Seon-hwa is gradually regaining her original appearance.
But if you look closely, it was more of confidence than madness, so it wasn’t that serious.
‘It’s gotten a lot better. Now that I have the Leviathan… I can give you more than a Black Hunter.’
***
Inside the official office of the Quasar Team.
There were no office supplies yet, but it was after the committee gave official permission to create a subjugation team.
Perhaps within a few days, the Hanhon industry would send various supplies along with the training ground.
Originally, buildings such as offices, training grounds, and lodging were not included in the contract, but the existence of Shin Da-hee and Kang Yu-jin resulted in more support.
“It’s pretty good. You mean you even got the building from the sponsor?”
“Thanks to the saint and the young king, I was able to change the terms of the contract a little.”
Seo Hyun-woo answers Yoon Se-in’s question and looks around.
In addition to Yoon Se-in, many people were in the office.
I was going to call only a few people, but as the content quickly became known, people I knew all gathered.
“Hey, it’s popular. There were only four Setinos Hunters.”
“I am grateful for all four of you.”
“Are you two on your side? Me and the Demon King are on your side, but we can’t run together.”
“I can only thank you for your words.”
“Call me if you have any problems. If it’s your request, I can do almost everything… even if it’s difficult.”
Yoon Se-in smiles awkwardly and sips her coffee.
The side effects of the technology made her look younger.
In the past, they looked like they were in their mid to late 20s, but now they are in their early 20s or underage.
If he used that skill in this state, he would be younger than Shin Da-hee.
“…isn’t it a little difficult?”
“Is it because of the side effects? Now I want to write, but I can’t.”
“If the same situation as in Incheon happens, can you not use that technology?”
“that…”
Yoon Se-in is troubled and cannot answer easily.
I couldn’t be sure I wouldn’t use it.
The more urgent it is, the more your heart will move before your head.
“Why don’t you trust other people sometimes? I and my subjugation team will spare no effort.”
Seo Hyun-woo glances at the visitors and then sets his gaze on Baek Jeong-woon.
The only person who could stop Yoon Se-in was Baek Jeong-woon.
In front of Baek Jeong-woon, Se-in Yoon would also be able to break her stubbornness a little.
“Is the Black Hunter taking care of Setinos Hunter? The student council president was huge.”
Yoon Se-in laughed and replied playfully.
However, Seo Hyun-woo continued speaking with a serious expression on his face.
“It is only one life. No one knows what will happen after death. In order to face a death with no regrets, shouldn’t we have to live a meaningful life that much?”
“Uh… isn’t it?”
“Even the Spirit King must have something that he wants to cherish. Wouldn’t that make you believe in other people more?”
“…?”
Seo Hyun-woo bowed his head slightly and got out of the seat first.
Yoon Se-in looked at Seo Hyun-woo’s back and then turned to Baek Jeong-woon.
‘If I told you this, I wouldn’t use that skill recklessly. I’ll leave the rest to Baek Jeong-woon…’
Seo Hyun-woo greeted visitors from time to time and passed by them.
Shin Da-hee, Han Yu-jeong, Kang Yu-jin, Baek Jeong-woon, Lee Min-seong, former student council executives.
Seo Hyun-woo approached the woman standing by the window and talked to her.
“The student council president seems to have a lot of problems.”
“… Ah, Chairman.”
Baek Seo-yeon, who was standing obliquely, answered quickly and cleared her throat.
As soon as Seo Hyun-woo graduated from Miterichi, Baek Seo-yeon took over the post of student council president.
After that, all the managers applied to Baek Seo-yeon for a rank battle, but all were defeated and had to fight a rank battle with the secretary of each department.
Although it was a short period of time, Seo-yeon Baek was proving her skills by faithfully performing her duties.
“Is there anything that doesn’t go well?”
“It’s not like that. Now that I will be graduating from Miterichi soon, it is a little bit…”
Baek Seo-yeon blurs the end of her words, but then closes her mouth.
Seo Hyun-woo quickly recognizes Baek Seo-yeon’s feelings and shows a light smile.
“I am just like you. I don’t know what to do. I’m not sure if I’m doing well right now.”
“What if you are in charge of the subjugation team, but you are not sure?”
“I know. I mean, I’m also surprisingly scared.”
“If the president is afraid, I will have to live trembling for the rest of my life.”
“When will the student council president call my name?”
“Can I call you team leader now?”
“Aren’t you going to call me team leader right now?”
“Isn’t there a need to attach a surname between us?”
“right. If you just call my name, everything will be resolved, but you don’t have to…”
Seo Hyun-woo, unable to continue speaking, shakes his head.
I couldn’t convince Baek Seo-yeon anyway.
If you can’t change that habit, you’ll have to adapt yourself.
“You will not be called by name. Even if they are close, each has a given role and position.”
“There is a lot more to be done than that. That’s why we need an assistant manager.”
Baek Seo-yeon is startled and cautiously looks towards the window.
Hopefully, he wouldn’t be asking himself to become the deputy team leader.
Because there were plenty of people who could be the vice-team leaders besides himself.
“Have I thought about it a lot? But no matter how many times I think about it, the result doesn’t change.”
“Who do you have in mind?”
“you.”
Baek Seo-yeon was a little embarrassed, but quickly calmed down and met Seo Hyun-woo’s gaze again.
Although the weather was quite cold, I thought that the heat was coming from somewhere.
“…Isn’t there a saint or the young king?”
“You have been dealing with student council affairs with me for three years. Oh, to be precise, 2 years, 7, 8 months… Let’s move on to this. You do a better job than me, and you’ve always tried to beat me. Do I have to tell you more?”
“I am inexperienced, and what I can do is…”
“I think it will make me feel more comfortable when you become the deputy team leader.”
“…”
Baek Seo-yeon lowered her gaze and swallowed the silence.
1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds.
Baek Seo-yeon thought for a moment and then nodded slowly.
“Aren’t you forced to do it?”
“You need me, but I can’t help it.”
“Then you will know.”
Seo Hyun-woo was relieved inside and returned to the visitors.
Baek Seo-yeon felt her heart beating wildly and let out a long sigh.
‘Tell me quickly. You thought someone else was the deputy leader.’
