Junho stepped forward and shouted looking at Kim Changsoo.
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“Like I said you can’t go to the mountain in the back. There’s an owner for that mountain. How can you go there without the permission of the owner?”
The owner of the mountain.
It seemed like Kim Changsoo, who has a lot of land in this area, was referring to himself as the owner of the mountain.
Junho’s expression was slightly distorted as if he was dumbfounded.
“Didn’t you hear what I said? They’re going to solve the problems in the village.”
” According to the law, if Rifts or monsters show up, awakeners can enter without permission, but, if no such thing is clearly identified, of course, they have to get the owner’s consent.”
Usually, if a crack occurs, awakeners and guilds can start eradication without the owner’s consent.
After all, in an urgent situation, there won’t be any time to visit the owner and get consent.
But this time, the situation was a little ambiguous.
The issue with the Rift was already resolved, and there were no monsters that were running wild.
It’s the ordinary wasps that bother the villagers.
Of course, it seemed certain that the wasps that turned aggressive were affected by monsters, but there was no evidence to prove it.
Unlike Taeho and Sehe, who are dumbfounded, Jin and Yerin showed troubled expressions as they watched the turnaround.
“Jin. I think this is getting a little complicated.”
“I know. The situation is ambiguous.”
“Are we really not allowed to go in without permission?”
Jin replied with a nod to my question.
“That’s right. Unless the government officially checks the occurrence of cracks or monsters, or the landowner reports them first, we cannot enter at will. If the procedure is not clear, it is no different from unauthorized intrusion.”
“Um….”
Jin’s explanation made it easy to understand.
If you can enter anywhere under the pretext of Rifts and monsters, it will also be a problem in many ways.
Yerin murmured as if she didn’t understand Kim Changsoo’s behavior.
“But why is he stopping us? Isn’t it better for him if we solve the problem?”
“That’s….”
I briefly explained the story of the villagers, Kim Changsoo, and the construction of the factory.
After hearing the explanation, the group nodded as if they understood the situation.
“What a bad guy!”
“That’s very selfish. Even after knowing that the villagers are suffering, how could he act like that just for his own benefit…”
Taeho was huffing and angry, while Sehe stared at Kim Changsoo with cold eyes.
But he didn’t mind our reaction at all.
“If you want to go, you’ll have to leave your hunting gear behind. Instead, I’ll allow you to collect mushrooms or wild vegetables.”
“Hahaha!”
“Hahaha!”
The people who came along with Kim Changsoo laughed at his remark.
We frowned seeing their reaction.
Unfortunately, their laughs didn’t last long because of the arrival of an unexpected obstacle.
“Why are there so many people? What happened?”
“Didn’t you hear about the town meeting yesterday? Didn’t Sihyeon say he would bring his guild members?”
“Oh! Have they arrived already?”
Villagers slowly started gathering one after another as if they were informed by someone and soon even the village head also came running.
As there were more eyes around, Kim Changsoo, who kept his cool, began to get nervous little by little.
It was very clear how his actions would reflect in the eyes of the villagers.
To not miss this opportunity, Junho raised his voice so that everyone could hear.
“Everyone! Please listen to this. These are the people who came to solve the wasp problem, and as you can see, these guys are blocking their way and not allowing them to enter the mountain…”
Junho appealed to the villagers.
Villagers immediately responded after hearing the situation.
” What’s wrong with him? Is he already suffering from dementia?”
“I knew it. He pushes ahead with the construction of a factory that everyone was completely against and when someone comes to help the village, he’s completely against it.”
“Hey, Changsoo! What are you doing? Do you want the elderly here to become prey to those wasps?”
Residents began pointing fingers at Kim Changsoo.
There seemed to be a lot of accumulated anger against him, and there were even a few people who uttered swear words.
“COUGH…”
Kim Changsoo coughed and looked at the distant mountain in an increasingly dismal atmosphere.
However, he never backed down despite strong opposition from residents.
He seemed to think he was the one who had the advantage if he held out.
There were no signs of a change of heart.
At this rate, there won’t be any solution to this problem.
If we can’t force the opponent to back down, all we have to do is to throw the right bait and make him back away.
I came forward and approached Kim Changsoo.
As I approached, he shook his chin as if there was nothing to say.
“I don’t think you’re just going to step aside. But wouldn’t you be in trouble if we didn’t back away?”
He didn’t answer me, but there was a slight shake on his face.
“So I’m going to make a suggestion… Would you like to hear it?”
“Hmm… tell me.”
“It’s not complicated. Please allow us access to the mountain for just one day. Then we’ll clean up the problem in the village. If we don’t succeed in solving the problem within a day, we’ll admit our mistakes and step down completely. We won’t get involved in the wasp problem anymore. If we succeed, you’ll have to pay for it. After all, we’ve solved the problem of the land you own. What do you think about my suggestion?”
Kim Changsoo’s expression crumbled when he heard my suggestion.
Because it was a proposal that was overwhelmingly favorable to him.
Just one day.
It would be enough time to remove a common Rift, but this time it was a very unusual situation.
Already, the monster had adjusted to the natural environment and hid very well.
He must have heard from the awakeners who were previously commissioned and wandered in the mountains for several days to find traces of the monster.
Kim Changsoo went into deep thought for a while.
It would be better for him if he could completely stop us from entering the mountain, but he could not ignore the reaction of the villagers.
Rather than just holding out, he has to make some concessions to give a proper justification for his action.
At that moment I moved and proposed the condition.
From his point of view, it was a very good offer.
“Will it really be okay?”
“Isn’t it a bit too much?”
Jin and Yerin whispered to me as if they were worried.
A faint smile formed on Kim Changsoo’s face, perhaps noticing the uneasy reaction from my side.
“You mean you are fine with just one day? Since you are not planning on walking around the mountains all night, How about from now until sunset?”
The remaining time from now until sunset was only about nine hours, less than half a day.
Junho tried to open his mouth in anger at the unreasonable request, but I stepped up first and accepted the request.
“Then let’s do that. From now on, I will solve the problem within the sunset.”
“Brother Si!”
“Si!”
“Sihy!”
Jin, Yerin, and Junho called me feeling anxious.
As if he liked their reaction, Kim Changsoo burst into laughter and said,
“Huh! I like your answer so much. Then I’ll step back. I hope you’ll tell me the good news later.”
He led his men who came with him and disappeared in a hurry.
“Hey! How are you trying to find and fight a hidden monster in a day?”
“Brother Si, I think this might be a little difficult task…”
“Sihy, will you be okay?”
When the three responded as if they didn’t believe in my decision, Taeho and Sehe defended me.
“What? Why are you not trusting Uncle Si? If it’s Uncle Si, one day is enough!”
“I think if it’s Uncle, he can do it. I’m sure you did it because you had an idea. Right, Uncle?”
Once again the eyes of Taeho and Sehe glittered like the followers of a Psuedocult looking at their GOD.
I tried to avoid their gaze in embarrassment.
On the other hand, I felt happy at two devout believers who followed my will.
My original plan was to climb the mountain with only me and the Guardians Guild members.
Junho followed us saying stubbornly,
“I know the mountain path the best here. I’ll take you as fast as possible.”
“Is it okay? It might be dangerous.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll have to see for myself the crumbling face of that rascal.”
I tried to refuse at first but later allowed him since he showed his strong will.
Thus, with the help of the person who knew the mountain path well, we were able to quickly reach the target point.
Our first target was where villagers were often stung by wasps.
Originally, it was a place where wild vegetables and mushrooms were dug, but these days, all villagers stopped visiting.
Junho, who was leading the way, checked the surroundings and said.
“This is the place.”
“Is this a place that is often attacked by wasps?”
“Yes. I heard that the awakeners that came last time also searched around here.”
The place we arrived at was a place we would normally see in the mountains.
When everyone thought there was nothing special, I felt a faint energy of a monster not far away.
It was very similar to the wasp I saw near my father’s grave yesterday.
I immediately informed everyone around me.
“Something is approaching.”
Everyone took their stance as they prepared for battle.
I went to the back along with Junho.
BURRRRRR!
WURRRRRRR
Wasps of huge size that could be rarely seen in the city approached us with a loud flutter reminiscent of a drone.
It wasn’t just one or two wasps passing by, but quite a few and they approached us ferociously.
“I’ll go first!”
Yerin said confidently and stepped forward.
Magical energy began to fluctuate around her body.
Soon, a very powerful shock wave was launched in the direction of the wasps.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
The wasps caught in the shock were unable to properly balance and staggered in the air.
“Help me, XIYEN!”
WHUUUUUU
Sehe quickly caught all the wasps that were stumbling with the power of the spirit.
“Wow… This is the power of awakeners…”
Junho murmured as he watched the wasps getting cleaned up in the blink of an eye.
“Sehe, can you lock up the wasps in that state for a moment?”
“OK, Uncle!”
I approached the wasps struggling in a transparent wind net.
I watched them carefully and used my skill – communication.
The wasps inside the net felt similar to the wasp I saw near my father’s grave.
The appearance was that of a plain wasp, but all gave off a faint monster’s energy.
While looking at the wasps one by one, I found a wasp that felt more powerful than other wasps.
‘Hm?’
‘This is…?!’
A familiar red energy was felt from the wasp, which had the energy of a powerful monster.
It was the energy of chaos.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Junho stepped forward and shouted looking at Kim Changsoo.
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“Like I said you can’t go to the mountain in the back. There’s an owner for that mountain. How can you go there without the permission of the owner?”
The owner of the mountain.
