“What about the guilds’ support?”

“Considering the dungeon grade, we requested assistance from Eternal Guild and the Guardian Spirit Guild. Both the guild leader and the deputy guild leader of each guild will participate.”

The atmosphere in the office, which was full of fear, was further eased by Do Junyoung’s remarks.

Eternal was the number one guild that was immovable in Korea, and Guardian Spirit was composed mainly of Healers and Mages, so the combination of the two guilds could be said to be the best in Korea.

‘… I mean, a guild with a deputy guild leader who cries out for resignation, and a guild with a guild leader who likes to watch plays…’

Seora, who had seen their bare faces in the S-class community, could not hide her displeasure.

Shit. If I had not known anything, I would have admired them as well.

Seora clicked her tongue and saw the dispatchers off with a nervous look.

“A Level 2 dungeon… It’s my first time seeing it while working.”

Gong Haeyeon murmured in a terrified voice. Even so, Seora fully understood her feelings, so she comforted her back.

So far, there have been a total of two Level 2 dungeons in Korea, each time causing great damage.

But the second time was when the association and guilds were already established to some extent, so it was okay…

When the first Level 2 dungeon appeared, it was like hell.

Even though it happened 12 years ago, there were many people who recalled that time. The civil servants, who were nervously biting their lips, didn’t look very good.

And when the dispatch team arrived at the scene and the sight of Seoul Forest appeared on the screen of the situation room, everyone was shocked.

“… What is that?”

The size of the gate that filled the screen was unusually large. It was suffocating even though they were looking over the screen. How on earth could you attack such an overwhelming thing?

Fear appeared again on the faces of the people. If the raid team failed the attack, Seoul might be facing an end.

“… What should we do?”

Gong Haeyeon muttered unconsciously and grabbed Seora’s arm. In the same way, Seora, who was flustered, comforted her with her efforts, recalling the relaxed administrator’s emoticon.

“It’s okay. They said Eternal Guild and Guardian Spirit Guild will be joining. They’re strong people, so let’s trust them.”

After she was reawakened, she had seen as many as five S-class Hunters up close. Having verified all their abilities, she believed.

They should be able to attack that dungeon well enough.

“It’s a Level 2 dungeon. Something unpleasant comes to mind.”

At that moment, an alluring voice filled with anger rang out. Everyone who was staring blankly at the screen turned around.

Song Hanna, the president of the association, dressed in a perfect suit, was looking at the screen.

“President…!”

“Is the president going to join the raid too?”

Song Hanna, number 1 in the unofficial domestic ranking.

However, she rarely went to attack the dungeon herself. As the president of the association, her role was to always be prepared for the worst.

In other words, when she stepepd in, it meant the worst had come. It was only natural that people were instantly frightened.

“Mm? No, no.”

But Song Hanna waved her hand as if telling them not to worry.

“I’m just here to take a closer look. The screen here is the largest in the association.”

Reassuring her staffs, she swept her chin and examined the gata on the screen.

“I’m not sure because I’m only seeing it here, but I don’t think there’s anything to be afraid of. Although the gate size is big, it’s just a normal Level 2 dungeon.”

The atmosphere in the office was relieved at once at Song Hanna’s assertion. The words of the longest surviving S-class in Korea must be reliable.

“Of course, it’s still dangerous because it’s a Level 2. Anyway, there’s one problem right now… Ah, right. Hunter Yoon Seora?”

Seora opened her eyes wide to stand at Song Hanna’s gaze that touched her. Hanna pointed at the screen with an ambiguous face.

“I’m sorry, but you need to go over there.”

“… What?”

Go over where?

“I’m not asking you to go into the dungeon, just go and bring one thing to Director Do.”

Oh, I didn’t expect such a development.

It seems that I now have an opportunity to take a closer look at the Level 2 dungeon.

***

After checking the item Song Hanna had asked for, Seora immediately understood why she had picked her to do this. It was none other than an S-class weapon that Do Junyoung used only when attacking dungeon.

‘No, I mean, how could you go to the dungeon without your weapon in the first place? An S-class dungeon on top of that!’

Seora, who had received the sword, shouted. Song Hanna looked awkwardly.

‘He’s disguised as an A-class, so he usually do things with a weapon of the same class. It is said that an artisan isn’t picky about their brush. Of course, he always put S-class weapons in his inventory, but I guess he left them because of the reinforcements.’

Seora held her forehead. Then it’s as if he’s going to the dungeon naked at the moment, isn’t it? No matter how urgent the situation is, how could one be so reckless?

‘Am I the only one who knows that the director is an S-class among the people who remain in the association now? All right, I’ll go.’

Song Hanna should not leave the association just in case the worst happened, so Seora meekly agreed.

“Then why did you pretend to be an A-class in the first place…”

S-class Seora, disguised as an F-class, grumbled and took off her sneakers and changed into combat boots given by Song Hanna. It was an equipment that would increase speed significantly.

“My feet are definitely lighter. Since I have A-class equipment, I guess I’ll arrive at Seoul Forest soon.”

Standing on the roof of the building, Seora looked in the direction of the Seoul Forest. Waves of mana were creeping in from afar. I can’t believe I can feel it here even though it’s quite a distance.

This is the magic of a Level 2 dungeon.

It was pretty creepy. If I was still an F-class, my legs would have loosened up quickly. Guess I’ll have to pretend I’m scared when I get there.

“Then, shall we go?”

Seora tapped the floor with the front of her boots and kicked the rooftop as it was.

With the anklet equipment that provided Haste ability and the ability of combat boots to increase base speed combined, Seora’s body began to move at a terrifying speed.

A pleasant laugh burst out of her mouth at the feeling of her flying in the sky.

“Ah, it feels so nice!”

The ground looked as small as a toy. I would never have felt this refreshing feeling if I hadn’t become an S-class.

Her heart pounded at the feeling that her life had truly been turned upside down.

[Administrator: ε=ε=(⊃≧□≦)⊃]

Together with the administrator’s emoticon, Seora flew into the air again, lightly kicking the roof of the building. Although the dungeon was getting closer, she was just as excited as a child.

She wasn’t afraid at all now.

***

It took just 10 minutes to reach Seoul Forest from City Hall Station, where the association is located. Even though it was a distance of nearly an hour by car, the ability of an S-class equipped with items was truly amazing.

After flying like a madman, Seora quickly cleaned up her messy hair and clothes and ran towards the gate without delay.

“Director Do!”

“Yoon Seora!?”

Jung Taesuk and Shin Jaemin were astonished. However, Seora did not have time to explain properly to them.

“Where is Director Do? The president said I need to deliver his weapon quickly!”

Seora’s lips quivered as if she were too scared. Still, she looked at the two of them with firm eyes, as if she was going to put up with it somehow.

Fortunately, the two people looked worried, so it seemed like the acting is working well.

“Give it to me. I’ll bring it to him right away, so don’t go any closer. Go back now.”

‘Oh, I can’t. I’d like to look around a little longer.’

Since I’ve come here, I want to see more. But Taesuk’s was stubborn, so Seora could only click her tongue in regret.

“Excuse me. I’m sorry I overheard your conversation, but I might be able to help you.”

The three of them turned around in surprise at the polite and calm voice they heard.

Standing there stood a man with light brown hair and clear eyes.

He was a handsome man who looked very young, but they all knew this subtle man whose age was difficult to guess.

“E-Eternal Guild’s leader.”

It was Joo Eun, the guild leader who led the top guild in Korea, Eternal.

“I think that’s Director Do’s weapon, right?”

Seora nodded her head hurriedly as Joo Eun pointed at the weapon.

“Oh, yes! The president asked for it to be delivered.”

“I see…”

A strange realization flashed across his eyes in an instant. Joo Eun immediately nodded his head and held out his hand.

“Thank you for your hard work. If it’s okay, I’ll deliver it to you. It’s dangerous to get closer, so please leave it to us from here.”

Seora was touched by the supremely polite attitude of Eternal Guild’s leader. The reason she liked Eternal Guild the most was because of Joo Eun’s elegant atmosphere.

… But why is the deputy guild leader like that?

Seora glanced behind him, but the deputy guild leader Kang Hanseo was nowhere to be seen. Somehow she felt relieved.

“H-Here you go. Well, then, please deliver it, Eternal Guild’s leader.”

Seora handed Do Junyoung’s sword wrapped in cloth to Joo Eun. As if he knew what it was like to entrust a weapon like this to someone else, Joo Eun carefully accepted it.

“For everyone’s safety, we will definitely attack the Level 2 dungeon. Don’t worry.”

After bowing politely, Joo Eun headed straight for the gate.

Seora’s eyes were wide open as she looked at his back.

‘How can you be so cool? You are indeed the handsome man who leads the nation’s top guild.’

[Administrator: (๑و • ̀Δ ́•)و!!!]

But why is this administrator like this again?

[Administrator: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻]

‘Why are you so angry?’

Why is it suddenly angry when it doesn’t seem to think much? Anyway, it was very difficult to understand what was going on because it could only communicate with emoticons.

“Seora-ssi, go back soon.”

“Okay, then, I’d like to ask for your help.”

Being greedy here did not mean that she could enter the Level 2 gate, so Seora stepped down. Of course, she didn’t forget to perform a passionate staggering performance as if her legs were loose until the end.

As she heard Jung Taesuk and Shin Jaemin’s feeling sorry for her behind her, Seora grew more and more confident in her own acting.

I think I’m talented.
