[Anonymous: Heol.]

[Anonymous: It really seems true. The photo in the press release has a mosaic pattern, but the dyeing and hair length are very similar.]

[Anonymous: So that article was also true?]

[Anonymous: It seems like that]

[Anonymous: Exactly. Since he got hit hard in the gate, thats why Jung Haseong looks like that too.]

[Anonymous: Scary. What kind of person goes against an S-Class?;;]

[Administrator: Speculative rumor posts about hunters violating the regulations. Please check the notice.]

At around the time when a small ripple began to spread in the sea of information.

Hmm. 

Wednesday.

In an apartment in Seoul.

After returning from work, Seonwoo Yeon opened the box of tea leaves she brought from her hometown.

Where did I put the new teaware

The same premium green tea gift set that was given to Kim Kiryeo as a reward. Even though she said it was okay, her family living in Hadong still gave her several boxes.

Aunt and Uncle They both seemed healthy.

Seonwoo Yeon was lost in thought as she brewed green tea.

After the Dungeon Shock incident, she had been avoiding going back to her hometown due to personal reasons.

When I saw the green tea fields, I remembered that terrible incident, so I left my parents business to my aunt and ran away to Seoul.

She went to Hadong for the first time in a while Surprisingly, it was alright. It wasnt as painful as before. Maybe time truly is the only medicine for healing wounds.

From now on, lets go back to my hometown more often.

All of this would have been impossible if it werent for Kim Kiryeos support. Seonwoo Yeon savored the brewed green tea, lost in thought. 

Oh, come to think of it, that person really liked the green tea he received as a gift.

-Wow, its so delicious! I dont know why people drink things like coffee when things like this exist!

Kim Kiryeo praised the Ujeon tea she had given after tasting it, showering it with compliments until his mouth went dry. 

Seonwoo Yeon smiles faintly as she recalls what happened back then. However, when she thinks of that awakened person, her thoughts always become deeper. 

Uhm. 

What on earth does Hunter Kim Kiryeo do?

Seonwoo Yeon has been pondering this question a lot lately. A few days ago, after witnessing him arguing with the top-ranked hunter in front of the emergency room, this feeling only intensified.

Kim Kiryeo. 

From his actions alone, its hard to imagine Kim Kiryeo as a rookie who awakened just last year.  It seems certain that he has been a hunter for at least a few years.

Where was he before he showed up in the records of the Hunter Association?

Her opponents vague background piqued her curiosity. Moreover, hadnt Kim Kiryeo once casually mentioned a sentence like this? 

-What about active duty, where can there be such a waste of time?

These are the words he said during the search for missing persons in Eunpyeong-gu. At the time, she was busy with work, so she just passed it over, but now that she thinks about it, its very meaningful.  

He talks as if hes some retired soldier or something.

Waste. Its a word that surprisingly doesnt fit Kim Kiryeo. 

Seonwoo Yeon let her imagination run wild for a moment. Could it be that Kim Kiryeo suffered a serious injury or something and had to withdraw from the front line? 

Why that. Like something out of a movie.

He might have worked for some hidden organization in the past, so after going through all sorts of trials and tribulations, he might now want to live quietly, pretending to be an F-Class.

Maybe hes not really an ordinary person

She may not know the details, but theres no doubt that theres something complex and heavy in his background. Seonwoo Yeon promised herself not to inquire about the mans past history carelessly.

Of course, this promise was useless.

Yahoo! Resignation is the best! Now I dont have to work overtime anymore!

Because an alien was reincarnated with the sole intention of quitting his job. What a dark past for him. All he remembers is working overtime and not being able to leave work when the sun went down. 

Lets have some snacks and watch a movie on YouTube!

Sometimes, there are things in the world that remain a mystery to us. 

For example, the unremarkable background of a certain great magician, or perhaps their personality, or even just everyday life 

***

In order to maintain a happy daily life, appropriate preparation is necessary.  Earth is often referred to as the provider of lifes three essentials. I can confidently say that as of today, I have achieved the best living conditions possible. 

Heuk. 

The Infinite Power Core.

This was something planned from the moment the item came into my hands. The identity of the object obtained after defeating Grid is to put it simply, it is a large-capacity battery.

As expected, theres nothing I cant do.

The infinite power core had a variety of uses.

Temperature conservation in greenhouses.

Maintenance of barriers.

Illusory realization of building units, etc.

Because it serves as an energy source for so-called installation-type techniques that are continuously effective in one location.

As expected, I used this core to create a new barrier to protect Kim Kiryeos house. With this, even an F-Class hunter like me can cast a powerful barrier. Even if the wizard doesnt replenish mana, the core supports the barrier on its own.

-Thump thump.

I tapped the border of the barrier and took a final look.

Intruder detected.

Blocks magic attacks and blocks physical attacks.

Even after downgrading to Earths level, its still quite impressive.

At this level, it will withstand dragon breath.

Allright.

So then all thats left is to concentrate on research in this cozy nest?

This is a problem I forgot about for a while because I was busy manufacturing magic power boosters and all. I was currently exposed to a threat. Because some S-Class hunter is trying to take my life.

Damn it!

There was only one goal for the future.

12 months.

During the few months that the cores power is maintained, a means of defeating the S-class magical beast must be found.

Ugh Once I resolve this matter, Ill live like a wealthy unemployed person, just having fun every day. I wont lift a finger for anything.

I sat down at my desk, determined. I hope that I can achieve peaceful days that will make me feel bored.

Research again, and again

-Kakk.

How many days have passed since I was locked in my studio like that?

-Duk, deuk.

Day 4.

I took out some biscuits and ate them for breakfast.

Wake up. Eat. Research. Sleep.

My life recently has been a machine-like pattern, but I personally have no major complaints.

Overwork is a familiar thing.

-Blub, blubblub!

Ah, looks like the water has boiled. 

I brewed some green tea with the boiled water from the electric kettle and glanced out the window. Its a leisurely tea time in the morning sunlight. Its a day like a dream. 

Yeah.

It does feel like a dream. But now, because of that annoying guest, Ive been unable to sleep for four days straight, and I feel like I might collapse from exhaustion right now.

Haa 

I held the teacup with empty eyes.

-Crack, crack.

Actually, there was some bad news in the meantime.

-Crack, crack.

Oh, which damn bastard keeps messing with the barrier? Hey! You! Come out and show your face!

For the past few days, an unknown awakened person has been trying to break into my house.

Mid-August.

The main temple of the pseudo-religious Rakshasa Temple. 𝒂ll new st𝒐ries at novelbi𝒏(.)c𝒐m

Master Su Yehwi, are you there? 

Yes, come in.

There is a huge painting hanging in an empty room. It depicted a dragon slumped over a willow tree against a crimson field.

What brings you here?

The believer, dressed in a raincoat, looked intently at the picture and then turned around.

Then the woman who came into the room bowed and reported.

I have investigated as instructed to find out what happened to Eunpyeongs Teacher. 

The result? 

T, that. Teacher Dae dies due to Kang Chang-hos attack. Some believers were also handed over to the police

Su Yehwi was surprised when he heard this. 

Thats strange. Still, that teacher was good at one thing, hiding.

However, the surprise didnt end there. Just like last time, that mysterious F-rank hunter was involved in this incident as well. Based on the testimonies of the organization members who escaped Kang Changhos attack, Su Yehwi pieced together the case.

I see. So Teacher Dae kidnapped this hunter to obtain the core, but then an S-Class suddenly appeared. Is that it? 

Y, yes! 

This might be a trap, perhaps.

Su Yehwi furrowed his brows as he looked through the documents his subordinate gave him. 

Kim Kiryeo. What exactly is this persons identity that he keeps interfering in everything? 

Moreover, its strange that he happened to be so closely associated with the S-Class whom Pyo Nagil tried to kill.

The same goes for stealing items he really needs. Even now, all believers are being arrested because of that one person.

Didnt I tell you to report in advance when bringing in high-grade awakeners?

Tsk, tsk.

Su Yehwi clicked his tongue. If he had known about this first, he would have given strict instructions not to touch that hunter. 

E, excuse me. Master Su Yehwi. 

At that moment, the believer who had been watching from the side cautiously spoke up.

But what if our plan cant proceed because Teacher Dae couldnt find the core? 

But Su Yehwi shook his head as if to tell him not to worry. 

It cant be. Its fine. The core we lack can be bought with money anyway. 

Ah!

Dont be impatient, Sister.

Su Yehwi is the second-in-command of the Rakshasa Temple. At the same time, he was also an excellent researcher.

Everything is going as it should.

Artificial dungeon break.

Eunpyeong-gu disappearance case.

Attacking Istanbuls winter gate.

The truth behind all these terrors lies in the verification of Soo Yehwis gate characteristics.

More precisely, it was to investigate What are the minimum conditions for a dungeon to exist?

And through his exploration of this topic, Su Yehwi obtained meaningful results. Thanks to this, he was able to manipulate dungeon spaces to some extent according to his own will.

In the last experiment, the hunter named Seonwoo Yeon was especially helpful. Because he realized that no matter what manipulations he made, there would be a way out when the boss died.

Su Yehwi tilted his head, recalling past experiments.

Yeah. The basic work is done, now all you have to do is prepare 

A pseudo-group that believes in a non-existent god has acquired the knowledge to control the gate. What could be more terrifying than this? Moreover, the final destination of this plan was the death of all S-class members. 

They are planning to cause even larger-scale terror in the future.

Aah, yes! I cant wait for the day of judgment to come!

Phew, of course. When that day comes, our sister will surely ascend to heaven, especially since you have donated so much. You will definitely go to paradise. 

Up to this point, the Rakshasa temples seemed like illogical madmen who worshiped the devil or something.

However, humans are typically driven by money or power.

-Ding Dong

Sister, please leave now.

Yes. 

As soon as Su Yehwi heard the doorbell, he walked briskly. Eventually, he arrived at the entrance of the building. The believer, even neatly removing his coat, warmly welcomed the guest.

Welcome! 

Ahem. 

Thank you for coming.

Where is the leader?

Father is already in the reception room.

Su Yehwi referred to the man who entered the building as follows.

Then I will guide you right away, Representative Kim.
