An S class awakened will also tire, and one’s eyes will sting and head will ring after fighting and being wounded after a day of hard work and now working into the night.
Taewon Song sighed and raised his head from the desk. He was in an office belonging to the Hunter Association and not the Awakened Management Office. Normally, the documents would go through the Association and come to the Awakened Management Office, but he was just reading it directly to save time and effort when both were short.
“This is the final S class dungeon managed by MKC.”
An association employee placed a file on the desk and asked Taewon Song whether he wanted some coffee. He agreed despite the caffeine not being effective and read the documents again. Seokwon Choi was treated as using an illegal item that had made him an SS class and killed him. He was written as missing after running to a nearby A class dungeon after S class hunters Taewon Song, Riette, and Noah and semi-S class Minyui Kim along with A class hunter Soyoung Kang had managed to stop him.
Taewon Song reported the situation as such, as he could not explain that Yoojin Han, an F class, took care of Seokwon Choi after he became an SSS class. He had no logical expression, and Yoojin Han himself asked him to keep it a secret.
Taewon Song visited MKC himself to inform what had happened to Seokwon Choi, so the upper guild members would not burst out at hearing that their guild leader was missing and most possibly dead. He then spent the night gathering the S class items and S class dungeon documents in MKC, as he could not allow other hunters as the opponent was quite formidable. As the guild was breaking apart, he needed to take care of things quickly so other guild members would not lay their hands on them.
Therefore, he was reviewing whether nothing had been missed after coming back to the Association from MKC.
‘I would need to hold a press conference after finishing up…’
He would also need to wash and change his clothes, and Taewon Song did not drink the coffee and held it. The warmth was welcome in winter, and the cup’s small size was quite cute. It would have been a healing moment if not for the uninvited guest.
“Director Song.”
Taewon Song had noticed him before the door opened but stood up only when his name had been called. Hyunjae Sung was standing there with a smile and a white baby chick. While he could not read a bird’s expression, Taewon Song thought that the chick did not look happy.
“What brings you here?”
Taewon Song’s voice made other Association employees who had been rigid at seeing Hyunjae Sung and the chick run out.
“Of course, to ask about next night. You seemed to have spent some enjoyable time with Yoojin Han yesterday. I told you that it’s courtesy to return items belonging to someone else if you picked it up.”
“First, he is not an object, and think of your negligence first.”
“You’re right on that point.”
Hyunjae Sung formed his face to a pitiful expression.
“I did not know he would leave with this one behind.”
A small beak pecked at the fingers approaching it.
“Hunter Soyoung Kang was at the site.”
“She’s on a date with Hunter Riette, saying that she needed to restore yesterday’s sensations before she forgot. She’s in a dungeon now.”
Soyoung Kang disappeared right after leaving only a dungeon conquest report. Since they were in a dungeon, the only person who would give Hyunjae Sung objective information was Taewon Song. While Yoojin Han would provide some information, one should face the individual with the most information last, as one would need as much prior information as possible to gather necessary facts.
“There will be a public announcement soon.”
“It’s not a funny joke. Did you have breakfast?”
Taewon Song looked at the S class hunter, who was one of the oddballs of all S classes, along with what had happened last night. Yoohyun Han was also eerie as Hyunjae Sung, but things had been different last night. He was a human being, a child barely turned adult at that. He seemed like a human being wrapped in human emotions rather than a beast emulating such feelings.
Could then this man also feel such things, and what about other S class awakened? Especially those who Yoojin Han already held?
It was then a woman in her forties came in, and she was Eunyoung Choi, who had been a previous official in the Hunter Association and was now reinstated. She smiled as she looked back and forth at the two men.
“Well, it’s a treat. Director Song is amazing, but still…”
She spoke while approaching the two men with large steps.
“You’re an art still, Sesung Guild Leader. Your new fashion suits you. I was most sorry not to be able to see you up close after leaving the Association.”
“I thought I gave you my number.”
“I remember it, but I’m not courageous enough to meet you in private.”
Eunyoung Choi turned her gaze to Taewon Song while smiling but with a softer face.
“You can leave the rest to us and go in.”
“It’s all right.”
“We’re not, and since he would have brought a nice car, I would like to ask the Sesung Guild Leader to take him home.”
“I will take him safely.”
“Then, I will think that Director Song will chase away an S class hunter who is disrupting the association and see you tomorrow.”
You can come the day after tomorrow. Hearing her justification, Taewon Song hesitated before organizing his desk.
***
The room was quite bright when I woke up, and Yoohyun was still sleeping. He would be using his own energy to heal large wounds, and I saw red marks on his shoulders that made me think the fog lowered regenerative skills. I should really have not let Seokwon Choi die so easily.
‘It’s nearly lunchtime.’
I should feed him something. I stood up and saw Yoohyun narrowly open his eyes. I stroked his head and told him to sleep. I did not use my lenses since my eyesight had been restored a little, and I would need different ones again. However, I could see enough now.
Velare turned her head towards me at the windowsill, like she had been about to do photosynthesis. I took her the snake and went to the bathroom next to the bedroom. She liked water and span under the showerhead after I turned it on. I washed and went out of the bedroom. I should have to bring chickie back. Should I ask them to send the bird?
“Oh?”
I heard a chirp in the living room connected to the kitchen, and I was not surprised as it may have teleported. Well…
“You woke up.”
“What the-“
It was Hyunjae Sung, and I could not hide my surprise. I saw Yoohyun come out of the bedroom with a still sleepy face.
“Why is he-“
“You don’t have to come out. I’ll take of him, so go get some more sleep.”
I told him to go back, but he was still glaring at Hyunjae Sung. I told him that he did ask me to stay at Sesung and go wash to send him back. Hyunjae Sung looked quite pleasant despite being a no-show yesterday, and I would have shouted to Seokwon Choi not to touch him quite emotionally if he had come.
“Why did you break and enter when you did not come when I asked?”
“I thought I would make some excuses while I gave you something back.”
Hyunjae Sung looked at the chick flying around me in circles. So he had brought Chirpie here.
“I’ll hear you out.”
I spoke indifferently and went to the kitchen. I expected nothing would be in the refrigerator but saw fresh vegetables, meat, and even seafood. I turned around to see him, and Hyunjae Sung took out a credit card on the table.
“You forgot this.”
“I gave it for good use. About the refrigerator…”
“I have a contract to feed you well that’s still active.”
“I thought that had been broken.”
“It’s not a violation if you went out of your own will despite me providing enough security devices. Did you use a hiding skill?”
I was going to go back within the time limit just so I would not have to say anything about the skill.
“Yes, you found the bonus. I won’t ask for payment since it’s a bonus skill, so ask me when you need it.”
“It’s a surprise that it’s free.”
“It’s a rare service, but I will ask for a business trip fee and an additional fee per ten minutes after the basic thirty.”
It was a logical rate, and Hyunjae Sung was looking at me with a strangely satisfied face as I took out ingredients from the refrigerator.
“Why are you staring at me like that?”
“I think the real one is better.”
“Help if you’re just going to say nonsense. You said that the jellyfish appeared?”
Meat roasted in the frypan, and Hyunjae Sung nodded as he broke eggs in a bowl.
“It asked whether I knew the crescent moon.”
“It’s one of the depraved that Jellyfish knows but is sleeping now.”
Why was Hyunjae Sung questioned? Was it because of his searcher’s chain? He said that the conversation with the jellyfish had not been long, but time seemed to have differed as it had been near midnight when the fog lifted.
“I received complaints that I won’t show my candy box again.”
Who was he with? I explained about the family of the Fog Sea to him.
“Don’t contract again, as I cannot deactivate it.”
“I won’t, as it bored me.”
It seemed like he was not lying, but I thought I would need to be careful about the S class hunters in Korea. Two went missing when I increased two, but Noah and the newbie at Sesung did mean an increase.
“Sesung’s new S class hunter’s name was Eveline, right? Is she trustworthy? Other hunters may be approached by the jellyfish.”
“She does not like street sellers and cults.”
“I feel the same.”
It meant she would not be a pushover, and considering the last, I was worried about Hanshin Guild’s Minkyu Park. I would finish up in Korea if I managed to stop S class hunters from going over to the jellyfish.
“Please let us have the MKC hunters. We need two new teams.”
Many A class hunters would come out as their guild leader was dead, and MKC had been quite a large guild. Also, S class dungeons and S class equipment would also be on sale.
“Don’t take the healers. Sesung already has an A class healer.”
“You can never have too many.”
“No, we have three S class hunters but no A class hunters. Give up.”
I remembered that the MKC’s A class hunter was quite skilled, and he would be a Chinese man. I also told him about the cold resistance items. Yoohyun came in, but I chased him to the living room. He may warrant a vacation. Hyunjae Sung called me when I wondered whether I should set the table for three.
“You won’t contract with it, right?”
Hyunjae Sung brought me closer, and with the water running from the sink, Yoohyun would not be able to hear as he was whispering.
“What difference does it make?”
“I don’t like things being taken away from me and never got used to it.”
“I am a bit worried about you.”
He did look sweet enough to lock me up if I said yes, and my brother would help.
“I won’t.”
It was not a lie, as despite the jellyfish’s proposal being attractive….
“My brother’s still young yet.”
He says that everything hurts, so I would still have to be with him.
“Just have some toast and jam.”
That would be enough for Hyunjae Sung.
