Dungeon Hunter Chapter 109:
Chapter 109 – Party (1)
Heaven’s Will .
Located in the heart of Gangnam, it was truly the best guild in South Korea .
No one could disagree with this .
Kim Yong-woo’s eyes were teary . He had all sorts of worries while attacking the dungeon in Saudi Arabia, but they were now gone .
He had returned . These words were enough .
“Captain-nim…!”
Warak!
Yoo Eun-hye hugged me as soon as the plane descended . She had been quiet for the last few days, but that stopped the moment she stepped foot on South Korean soil .
I stayed still and looked around .
Everybody was looking at me with a curious expression . There were a number of reporters requesting an interview but I ignored them .
The atmosphere was quiet as they waited for me to speak .
“Guild Master, I will return for a talk . ”
I could see the reporters preparing to write in advance . Therefore I only spoke quietly to Kim Yong-woo .
“I look forward to it . ”
Kim Yong-woo gave a huge smile . He originally had to defend his position with a dignified attitude, but now life was good .
I didn’t mind .
Edward Windsor, who was quietly standing behind Yoo Eun-hye, said .
“This is the last time . I won’t forgive you if you make Noona cry one more time . ”
“You’ve developed a lot of affection in the meantime . ”
“Noona is my benefactor . I will give my life to her . ”
I was the one who saved him, but didn’t Yoo Eun-hye nurse him back to health?
I started laughing .
“Am I not welcome?”
“It is better than nothing . As long as Eun-hye noona laughs…”
Edward gazed at Yoo Eun-hye admiringly . Edward’s beginning and end seemed to be Yoo Eun-hye .
‘He won’t be able to escape . ’
In a nutshell, Edward was forced to follow me as long as Yoo Eun-hye did . Over time, his obsession with her would just deepen . One of the 10 mighty Heroes in the future had fallen . I didn’t need to worry about him becoming an unexpected obstacle . As long as the growth rate wasn’t bad, he would be able to face a higher level of creatures in the next three years .
“Please be prepared . There is a lot of work in the world these days . This is only the first dungeon destroyed . ”
Kim Yong-woo said playfully .
Lee Ji-hye sighed .
“It will be hard to rest in the next few months . ”
“We should take today as an opportunity for a break . I deliberately told the reporters to leave so that we could rest . ”
The other raid members stretched out and exclaimed .
“Wahh! Home! Bed!”
“I want to eat my mother’s stew . ”
A private bus to carry the people arrived .
Yoo Eun-hye was still stuck to me like gum as I boarded the bus . The jealousy in Edward’s eyes became much stronger…I didn’t bother stopping it . But I had to remove her by force after arriving at Gangnam .
“…Ah, I want to keep hugging you!”
Yoo Eun-hye tearfully protested .
“Tomorrow . ”
“Bah, we’ll see . You aren’t going to disappear tomorrow?”
I had left them too frequently .
The bus stopped and Kim Yong-woo was waiting for me . Yoo Eun-hye wasn’t concerned despite everyone staring at her .
“That won’t happen for a while . ”
“Are you sure?”
“Trust me . ”
“Huheung, I don’t believe you . Promise with your finger . ”
“Tomorrow . ”
I walked out while ignoring her finger . Kim Yong-woo laughed as Yoo Eun-hye shouted louder .
“You really have to come tomorrow! Don’t disappear again without telling us! Or else I will burn your badge!”
The next day, there was a wall of humans outside the guild house .
Numerous reporters . It was to celebrate the return of a hero . And there was a crowd of Awakened who knew about my ‘resurrection . ’
But I didn’t show my face to them . There were some personal details that I kept secret . I always wore a half skull mask outside, so Kim Yong-woo also paid a lot of attention to security .
However, I couldn’t just ignore them . There was an intense curiosity about how I managed to come back from the dungeon alive .
I had a private interview with a reporter that was revealed to the public .
The interview was taped and broadcasted by the stations, embroiling South Korea in a huge storm once again .
-Hello . Please introduce yourself .
“I am the captain of the raid group Devil Hunters that belongs to Heaven’s Will, Randalph Brigsiel . ”
–It is a pleasure to meet Captain Randalph-nim . Then I’ll get straight to the point . Several months ago, the angels emerged and creatures gathered in South Korea . I heard that Randalph-nim received a large injury from the creatures and was dragged into the dungeon . Is that true?
“That’s right . I was dragged into the dungeon along with the angel . ”
–It is amazing . Can you tell me what happened afterwards?
“I met the Dungeon Master . ”
–Yes…?
“I met the Dungeon Master . ”
–Are you talking about the woman with long ears that appeared with the monster wave?
“That’s right . The Dungeon Master was very curious and healed me . ”
–She directly healed you?
“It is true . She is strong but was bored waiting on the top floor . Therefore, she hoped that I would relieve some of that . I would have died if left untreated . ”
–I remember . The words of the Dungeon Master spread throughout the country . At that time, Randalph-nim’s attack was a huge issue . Then the angel that came with you…?
“The Dungeon Master isn’t good . She came up with a devilish way to corrupt the angel . My body trembled as I saw the scene . ”
-A fallen angel…hah . It is unbelievable . Did anything special happen?
“I was able to explore the dungeon . ”
–Is that really possible? The Dungeon Master gave you permission?
“That’s right . But it was up to the 15th floor . The creatures became stronger and the terrain changed as I climbed higher . In some cases, I found ridiculously powerful treasures compared to those downstairs . The top floor is the 31st floor . The Dungeon Master seems to be very interested in the affairs of humans . ”
-Wait a minute . Isn’t the Dungeon Master controlling the creatures?
“It is impossible to control them all . And they might be helpful to the further growth of the Awakened . Perhaps…a monster wave will occur in the near future . ”
–Things are becoming more bleak . Did she mention what she wants from us humans?
“Increase our strength, and handle the other dungeons . The Dungeon Master hopes for the level of the Awakened to rise . Beyond that, I don’t know . But the Dungeon Master is very strict, she gave me one last warning . A chance like this won’t happen again . ”
–I don’t know how far you can grow . Even now, the average citizens see the Awakened as Superman .
“Climb the dungeon . That road is faster than anything else . And…the Dungeon Core is a powerful weapon . Think of this as a chance . ”
–Ah, I heard that Saudi Arabia’s dungeon also collapsed . Heaven’s Will and Randalph-nim contributed a lot to it . I’ve never heard of a Dungeon Core .
“It contains the magic power that maintains the dungeon . We searched for it the day after killing the owner, but there were no signs of the Dungeon Core . ”
–Wait! So the Dungeon Master in Saudi Arabia was killed?
“That’s right . Of course, I wasn’t alone . It wouldn’t have been possible without the help of others . That’s why some of the Awakened died . ”
–Yes, that is regrettable . In particular, none of the Awakened from China seem to have survived . They were surprised in the middle .
“It can’t be helped . Everyone gathered there was different . ”
–Our deepest sympathies . But if it was possible to destroy Saudi Arabia’s dungeon then, here in South Korea…
“That is impossible . South Korea’s Dungeon Master is different . I don’t even dare think of wielding a sword against her . Every Dungeon Master has different traits . ”
–It is still monumental . One of the 72 dungeons has been destroyed, so humanity finally has hope .
“If every Awakened grows quickly then it will be possible to protect the peace on earth . These are trials . Trials to make humans grow . ”
–Thank you for the good words . And thank you for your time today .
This was the end of the interview .
It lasted approximately five minutes . But the duration didn’t matter . It contained a lot of information .
The captain of Devil Hunters was now the symbol of ‘resurrection . ’ The dungeon floors, fallen angels, monster wave and existence of the Dungeon Core .
All of this was amazing .
The interview flowed all over the world . At the same time, the world’s giants started to move . Their eyes were headed towards South Korea .
* * *
A half Dungeon Core .
It was broken due to White, but the light showed that there was still some concentration of magic power . The fairy had gone back to its original nature .
I left the half Dungeon Core with the best blacksmiths . The dwarf blacksmith guild, ‘Blacksmith’ frequently made goods for humans .
‘This belonged to a duke, so only Unique or even Exceptional Unique grade items can be made from the Dungeon Core . Rather, it is better to use this politically . ’
This was the result of several calculations .
In particular, the weapons would be used to strengthen Kim Yong-woo and Heaven’s Will . There was no one using Exceptional Unique (Ex U) weapons among the humans . It was likely that an astronomical sum would be spent for them . I turned my eyes to the outside .
“Ohh, I can’t go out . This is really frustrating . ”
Yoo Eun-hye slumped down .
The reporters in the last few days were to blame . Therefore she was stuck in the guild house . Any member that went out there would be engulfed by the curious humans .
“Go away . It is too hot . ”
“Ah, Captain-nim is good . I wouldn’t be able to walk through so many brutes . I will be honest . ”
Yoo Eun-hye was strongly attached to my side . She was more aggressive after I returned back alive .
The person who would be called Lightning Queen in the future . There was also the bonus of making the indifferent Edward Windsor annoyed .
“That’s right, isn’t there a party today? Are you wearing a suit?”
There was a huge guild party scheduled to take place this evening . It had occurred a few times, but this was the first time I was participating . It was expected that the guild masters and other important figures would attend .
Yoo Eun-hye continued to babble like a sparrow .
“I’ve made a lot of money in the meantime . I’ll give some to you . How about it?”
“There is no need . ”
“Aye ~ Don’t be like that . You’re coming, yes? You are the only one who can make the reporters move . I wouldn’t even be able to move 200m without you!”
I didn’t bother with a lot of words .
Kim Yong-woo had already grabbed the back of my neck .
‘A suit . ’
I didn’t have a lot of time to find one due to the dungeon .
I lightly nodded and stood up .
