Episode 89

89. That seems to be the best fit.

The next morning.

Han Byeong-gu, who woke up at dawn as usual, felt his blood pressure rise for the first time in a long while when he saw a message on his messenger app.

“This, this guy… … .”

-I’m running away. Don’t come looking for me. ⸜(๑^ں^๑)⸝

Han Byeong-gu immediately expanded his senses and looked at the room on the second floor where Goeulji was. He felt no movement.

“Oh, it was destroyed yesterday, right?”

The hole in the wall reminded me of the study I had been in. I quickly checked the first floor. As expected, it was eerily quiet.

“That bastard, even if I sleep a lot, he’s like that. Heh heh. Escaping while avoiding my attention. Heh heh heh… … . Bam! I taught you so well, and you’re using your powers to run away from home?!”

Han Byeong-gu, who had been gnashing his teeth for a long time with a red face, finally took a deep breath to calm his anger and checked the message again.

I noticed an emoticon that looked excited about running away.

The anger burst out again.

“Emoticons are more exciting!”

* * *

“So? You ran away from home?”

“Where should I sleep?”

Kang Moo-hyuk thought of Han Byeong-gu as he watched Go Eul-ji confidently claiming to have run away from home after coming to the guild at dawn.

‘You must be having a headache. This time, they’re going to make a fuss because they kidnapped you.’

Since I knew Go Eul Ji’s wayward personality from the first time we met, I was prepared for this kind of difficulty from the beginning.

I wasn’t too worried about her because I was making plans to gradually improve her, but I didn’t want the friction with Han Byung-goo to continue like this.

Kang Moo-hyuk asked while washing his sleepy face with his dry face.

“You couldn’t have flown all the way from Seoul. How did you get here?”

“I have a bike. My grandfather bought it for me because he thought a hunter should be mobile. It even has cartridges so I can use it in special terrain.”

“No matter how much you clean the roads at dawn, there will be quite a few monsters… Well, it probably doesn’t matter to the hunters anyway.”

“Oh, you’re being annoying. I already caught a few of them. As gifts.”

“gift?”

“I’m going to give it to the wolves.”

“Wolf… Are you talking about the Rider Wolf?”

“You were cute the last time I saw you.”

“We provide plenty of meat. There’s no need to feed it to monsters… … .”

“You said you were with goblins before? Well, they were mostly living in the wild. Do you think they would like the food that you raised at home if they were used to eating monster meat? You have to catch some fresh monsters and feed them to them so they’ll be full of fighting spirit.”

As he watched Go Eul-ji talking while punching the air, something flashed through Kang Moo-hyeok’s mind.

These were the words of Yeom Soo-hyung, who was temporarily taking care of Rider Wolf.

‘Is it because it was raised by humans? It has become more docile than before. It is still fierce when hunting, but not as fierce as when it was raised by goblins. It would be more marketable if it was a bit more fierce.’

“Was that it?”

“What is it?”

Kang Moo-hyuk burst into laughter without realizing it. It was something he had been struggling with for a while, but he had finally found a solution in this way. It wasn’t a proven method, but it was worth a try.

“I’ll give you a room.”

“Wow!”

“For your information, the WiFi doesn’t work here yet.”

“no way…….”

“And I’ll make a dinner appointment with BTA soon. I’ll also give them concert tickets.”

“Wow!”

“Instead, either get permission from your grandfather or return home in a few days. I will tell your grandfather that the Goulji Hunter is here.”

“Wow~”

“It’s not dawn yet, so let’s get some sleep first─”

“fizzle!”

The expression on Goeulji’s face changed.

The youthful face from a moment ago disappeared, revealing the face of a seasoned hunter. The relaxed atmosphere also changed into a sharp one.

Kang Moo-hyuk also felt that something was wrong and became nervous.

“What is it?”

“What a small world. And here I am again? Like a rat.”

“??”

“there!”

Suddenly, Goeulji reached out his hand toward the corner of the office.

A black shadow appeared in the empty space.

“Huh!”

The shadow hovered in the air, wrapped around his neck, as if held by an invisible hand.

“I got it!”

Goeulji shook the space and grabbed the shadow with both hands. The shadow struggled.

“reel?”

The shadow that seemed like it could never escape escaped from Goeulji’s grasp and escaped through the window.

A shadow appeared in the moonlight streaming in through the window.

It was an unfamiliar face, but it was not an unfamiliar face. It was one of the faces that Kang Mu-hyuk knew.

“Miss… . Hey, wait a minute! Goeulji Heon… .”

“Where are you running away to?!”

Goeulji used his telekinesis to run towards the shadow retreating towards the window.

Clang! Car window!

The moment the office window burst open, a shadow jumped down. Go Eul-ji followed the shadow and threw himself out of the building.

A battle broke out in the air, with both sides entangled in each other.

Every time Goeulji tried to ensnare him with his telekinesis, the shadow escaped with incredible timing. When he finally caught him, he used some strange, unknown skill to free himself. This was the first time anyone had been able to escape from his own telekinesis this far.

Goeulji continued to press without stopping until the moment he touched the ground. If anything, he planned to confine and crush the entire space.

Meanwhile, Kang Moo-hyuk, who was left alone in the office, stood by the window where the wind was blowing in. He looked down at the chaotic front yard of the headquarters. Emergency signals were blaring everywhere.

“Oh, Mr. Joe… … .”

Who would have thought there would be two uninvited guests in the middle of the night? Mr. Joe thought they might have come to see him when he left for work.

“If I don’t stop this quickly, I’m going to get in trouble.”

Mister Joe was a VIP who brought important information to her because of a past relationship, even though she was not a guild member. Given her personality, she could have been shut out at any time if she got upset.

Even when faced with top-tier hunters, Mr. Joe was not easily caught, but he did not fare well against Goeulji, who had a strong telekinesis ability. It was only because he was Mr. Joe that he was not easily caught against Goeulji.

It was the moment when Kang Mu-hyeok was about to turn around to quickly catch the elevator.

Kuung!

There was a loud noise, as if a giant was striking the ground, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

From below, the voices of Goeulji and Mr. Joe were heard.

“Ugh! Wait a minute. Sister, in our language… Ugh!”

“Jusiah Gilma… So I’m not a thief… Kkwok! Go, Captain Kang… Ask the captain. I’m not a thief… .”

Joo Se Ah looked up while holding the napes of the necks of the two intruders who had intruded in the middle of the night with both hands.

Kang Mu-hyeok, whose eyes met mine, nodded and said.

“You are both my guests.”

This was the end of the situation.

* * *

“Because I was so jealous. Why did that guy ask for such high-level information?”

“I’m sorry for attacking you, Mr. Joe. But it was rude of you to sneak in, and at this hour of the morning. A phone call would have been sufficient.”

“That’s… I was just looking around… I was curious about the Hunter Village that was advertised. I figured I’d give you some information while I was at it.”

“Are you looking around? Or are you exploring?”

“Ugh… . Wow, this place is great. Captain Kang is getting promoted? Haha, I knew Captain Kang would become great.”

After hearing Mr. Joe’s poor excuse, Kang Moo-hyuk looked back at the village.

“It’s so painful,” said Goeulji, shrugging his shoulders and scratching his head.

“No, I thought he was some kind of bad guy. To be honest, he’s not a burglar, and if he sneaks in like that and watches, anyone… … .”

“I won’t break the window.”

“… … That’s right. I know you can’t break windows… Haha. Do you deduct this from your salary?”

When Kang Mu-hyeok shook his head silently, Go Eul-ji let out a sigh of relief.

“Whew, thank goodness. This time, oppas’ goods are coming out… That’s right! Now that I think about it, that guy was at oppas’ fan meeting too! Do you know how nervous and annoyed I was back then? I was worried that oppas’ performance would be ruined, so just be thankful that I scared you.”

“Wait a minute. By the way, you used telekinesis earlier, right? So, were you the one who made me drink water then? Hey, they say you meet your enemy on a single-log bridge. You’re going to have to do some sleight of hand today.”

“Pudak, what? Who would say that? Thinking about how I couldn’t see the performance properly that day. Oh my! I’m so pissed! Should I go out and have a party?”

Joo Se Ah came between the two who were growling at each other with their foreheads together.

“Both of you stop.”

Bam! Bam!

“Oh my, Lord Gilma… … .”

“Ahhh! Grandpa doesn’t even hit my head… . Ahoo!”

Joo Se Ah waved her hand and flinched.

“Captain, is this kid the one who enlisted this time? The one you mentioned back then?”

“Yes. I am the granddaughter of the president of the association, Han Byeong-gu.”

“I can tell without you saying it. You look just like your maternal grandfather.”

“Me?! That’s ridiculous!”

Joo Se Ah ignored Go Eul Ji’s screams and turned her gaze to Mr. Cho.

“Is this the informant you were talking about back then?”

“Yes. It’s the best in Korea.”

“The best in the world!”

“Didn’t the Hunter Association find out?”

“Then, to the extent of being the best in Asia… … .”

Joo Seah said, turning her head away from Mr. Joe, who was trying to compromise his title.

“I don’t know about anything else, but these two seem to be the best in the world at reading the mood.”

““Where?!””

The two intruders shouted at the same time and glared at each other, growling.

Kang Moo-hyuk also nodded and agreed with Joo Se-ah’s opinion, then spoke to Mr. Jo.

“But do you also go to idol fan meetings?”

“Do you think I went because of the idol’s fanboys? I went because of work.”

“My brothers are being rude… . Seriously, I’m so speechless. I’ll get hit by that rude fan once… . Kku! Eek, it hurts. My head is a bit… .”

When Joo Se-ah glared at him, Go Eul-ji kept her mouth shut.

She had just experienced the horror of Joo Seah. Even though she was bound with telekinesis, it was of little use as her resistance to supernatural powers was high.

He tightened his grip even more, but he released it with brute force and rushed forward. His appearance was truly that of a messenger from hell.

Mr. Joe snickered, saying it was a good thing, but Go Eul-ji could not help but remain silent under Joo Se-ah’s chilling gaze.

When the town became quiet, Kang Mu-hyeok continued the conversation.

“Was that information meant for me?”

“Of course it’s great information. You’ll have to pay some money, hehe!”

“What information?”

“Don’t be surprised when you hear this. The Japanese sent an assassination squad to kill Captain Kang.”

“… … .”

“What? Why aren’t you surprised? I even used a translator to find out this information. No, are you just so surprised that you’re frozen?”

Joo Se Ah pointed to Mr. Joe and asked Kang Moo Hyuk.

“Is it really the best?”

“First of all… . It’s the best.”

“I seriously think I need to change my business partners.”

“What’s wrong with the atmosphere? What is it? What’s going on?”

Kang Moo-hyuk swept his head back and scratched the back of his head as he spoke to Mr. Cho.

“I already knew that the Japanese Guild Union sent an assassination squad called Igajo to kill me. This time, the information was a bit late.”

Mr. Joe opened his mouth in surprise.

‘Where else did you make a deal with? No, more than that, I, I… am late. This can’t be happening.’

Go Eul Ji, who had figured out the situation, laughed at him again as if he was being a fool.

“You’re the best, you’re the best. Oh, how embarrassing. I’m the one who got caught. If you’re the best, then any dog ​​or cow would be the best.”

“No. No. That’s right. If I only knew Japanese, it would have been faster… No, an interpretation item. That’s right. I should borrow that and buy it.”

Joo Se Ah let out another sigh as she watched Go Eul Ji teasing Mr. Joe in his ear and Mr. Joe covering his ears and suffering.

“That’s our source, that’s our best prospect? I didn’t sigh even when I saw the guild in shambles before Director Kang came. I suddenly miss the Slayer Guild.”

“While we’re on the subject, I have a favor to ask, Guild Master.”

“What is it?”

“Please take charge of the Goeulji Hunter’s shooter.”

“Eek!!!”

A scream was heard from the village.

Joo Se-ah stared blankly at Go Eul-ji, one corner of her mouth curling up.

“Gilma is a shooter. Hey, you’ve got it. I’ll try it. It’ll be fun.”

Go Eul Ji couldn’t bring herself to protest to Joo Se Ah. Instead, she just glared at Kang Mu Hyuk.

‘I guess I ran away for nothing. I miss my grandfather.’

At that moment, Mr. Joe, with tears welling up in his eyes from his anger, shouted.

“But I know where they are!”

Kang Moo-hyuk and Joo Se-ah looked back at Mr. Joe at the same time.

Kang Moo-hyuk looked down at her and spoke to Joo Se-ah.

“I think it’s the best fit.”

“That’s right. That’s great. That’s right.”
