Midnight downtown.

There were hunters from the Seokyoung Guild who rented out the entire bar.

With the atmosphere in full swing, everyone was making loud voices with drunk faces.

“Isn’t there a noticeable increase in the number of people in the guild these days?”

“I’ve taken care of the guys who used to be around the area, and the size of the business is getting bigger and bigger and bigger. Isn’t this all thanks to the guild leader? With this momentum, we’re going up to the ranks of the nation’s top nine guilds.”

“Hahaha! He’s saying all that shit.”

Drumming!

Then, six or seven uninvited guests entered the store.

Hunters of the Seokyoung Guild, who were drunk and talking defenselessly, didn’t even notice that they came in.

“…….”

Then a pair of a man and woman in black coats stepped forward.

As they approached the hunters, they overturned the two tables at the entrance.

Shaking!

tables and utensils in a noisy store

Surprised, the hunters of Seokyoung Guild jumped up, and the guild leader and hunters at the other table also turned around.

“What, what? All of a sudden, these bastards!”

“You, don’t you know who we are?”

A place where dozens of hunters gather in one place.

They were also the hunters of the Seokyoung Guild, which dominated the streets around here.

Whether he/she intended to die or not, he/she set up such a mess with only a few people.

“It looks like the Hunters, but given the numbers, don’t even think about surviving.”

Some guild members pulled out a sword from their waist.

“Huh…? Now, wait!”

But some of the drunken guild members belatedly recognized the identity of their opponents.

All of them were dressed in their own clothes, but the guild uniforms on them were telling them their affiliation.

A coat of blue decoration on a black background.

Behind his back was a guild sentence called Cheongseong.

“Hunters of Cheongseong!”

“Cheo……the Cheongseong Guild?”

The frightened hunters jumped out of their seats.

Until just now, they were even struggling to control themselves, but now they have flown away drunk.

“Are you the Hunters of the Seokyoung Guild?”

A handsome man opened his mouth among the guild members of Cheongseong.

Everyone opened their mouths as he stepped forward.

“Go, Kang Il-hoon?”

A-rank hunter of Cheongseong, Kang Ilhoon.

A-class hunter was regarded as the best in Cheongseong, one of Korea’s two major guilds.

Among them, Kang Il-hoon was a senior executive, and he was quite a celebrity in the Hunter industry.

‘What’s wrong with a big man like that all of a sudden?….’

Seokyoung’s guild leader thought with his head spinning.

In an unusual atmosphere, cold sweat flowed down.

Not only Kang Ilhoon, but also all the Hunters standing behind him must be talented enough to rank B.

“What brings you to a place like this, high-ranking officials of integrity.….”

“They’re stealing our money, so they’ll have to come.”

“What do you mean, take it away?”…!”

“How long did you think you could cheat? They’re stupid.”

The Seokyoung Guild handed over part of the payment to Cheongseong Fortress.

Some of the protection taxes collected in the mall were cleverly omitted, but their secret was short-lived.

If a third-rate guild tried to deceive Cheongseong, there was only one end.

“Don’t leave any of them behind and clean them up.”

“Come on, wait a minute……!”

Oh, my God!

A sprinkling of red blood

The ruthless swords of integrity flashed, and the cut bodies rolled around the floor.

In the face of overwhelming force, Seokyoung’s guild members could not even properly control.

“Give your life…!”

“Argh!”

The sound of a scream in the store leaked out to the street.

However, people who were going back and forth on the busy streets only quickly avoided their seats, and no one dared to report them.

In the meantime, the screams from inside the bar stopped.

Inside the store, there was a pool of blood overflowing.

Drooling.

Hwang Il-woo, who came out after the massacre.

Coming out to smoke for a while, he took one of the guild’s staff waiting to clean up.

“Fire.”

“Yes, yes.”

The staff quickly took out the lighter they were preparing and lit Hwang Il-woo.

He was a new employee who was beaten up by him last time, so he was stiff.

Cough! Cough!

The employee who took the cigarette and brought it to his mouth coughed without realizing it.

Then Hwang Il-woo’s expression became cold.

“You don’t like it now?”

“Oh, no!”

The employee hurriedly brought the cigarette back to his mouth.

Non-smokers, who had never put cigarettes in their mouths before, tried to force them to smoke, so there was no hardship.

However, he couldn’t resist Hwang Il-woo’s words, so he tried hard to hold back his cough with a smile around his mouth.

He turned his head slightly to drink less smoke.

But something came into his eyes.

“Hwang Il-woo, Hunter! The police over there……!”

“Police?”

Two police officers wearing fluorescent vests were walking down the street while on patrol.

Hwang Il-woo was in a state of blood, and inside the store, the bodies and broken furniture were mixed together and it was a mess.

These were ground evidence that could not be excluded from the scene.

However, Hwang Il-woo’s reaction was very sour.

“What the hell was that?”

“Yes, yes?”

Hwang Il-woo’s attitude was as if he didn’t even care.

Hwang Il-woo looked at the police officers and acted boldly.

“Huh…?”

When Hwang Il-woo and his eyes met, the young officer flinched.

He was embarrassed at the moment by his confident attitude of blood in the middle of the street.

“Hey, what are you doing……! Come here.”

However, a young policeman stopped and a middle-aged officer with a white head rushed to the scene.

The police, who recognized Cheongseong’s guild suit, avoided the place while looking around.

“Huh, what?”

“Hi, did you think the cops would take us?”

“Yes… I thought it would be complicated, and they will issue a warrant of arrest.” The male employee hesitated as he said those words, Hwang Il-woo frowned as if what he said was absurd.

“Hey, Mr. Lee, aren’t you from a prestigious university? A non-awakening person needs to be smart to join our guild. Is that a parachute?”

“Oh, no. It’s a prestigious university, but……”

“So you don’t know what’s going on in the world because you’re just sitting in front of your desk?”

“…I’m sorry.”

“And now you’re a little bitches. Lee was still smart, but now he’s fallen into the abyss.”

Hwang Il-woo slapped the employee’s cheek.

Fortunately, he only looked as if he was pathetic, but he didn’t seem offended.

“Look at this world that changed with the dungeon. If you don’t see the changed world properly, you’ll fall behind. Or go to hell.”

Hwang Il-woo puffed out cigarette smoke once.

He was in a good mood today, so he kept talking.

“I’ve become a hunter beyond the power of man, and I’m not sure how many of you are going to be a public servant with a lot of restrictions and small salaries? They all gather in guilds. Well, it wasn’t until late, and the dumb government had a proper Hunter, but it was too late. The Guild’s influence has already crossed the government.”

Clearly, the government’s Hunters were powerful.

If the guilds run wild against the nation, they will be shattered by government hunters.

However, in terms of nationality, the number was absolutely insufficient.

This means that it is absolutely too much to exercise the same public power as before.

The general public can’t stand Hunter.

Even if Hunter’s rating went up a little, the existence of firearms became virtually meaningless.

Because of this, it was the current police that even small and medium-sized guilds in the neighborhood could not properly touch the group of hunters.

However, the central government’s Hunter manpower alone cannot afford to offend the entire country.

The vacancy was quickly collected by hunters and large guilds that gained unrivaled power.

This was the first time a dungeon took place.

While the national system was paralyzed in extreme chaos, it was possible because the guilds rapidly expanded their power around the strong.

“First of all, the first is to deal with the dungeons in your area. And the criminals who woke up at the same time were given proper security so that they wouldn’t run wild, and the protection tax would be paid. How can a non-wakening person handle a blind hunter or monster? They know it’s going to suck without us, so there’s no backlash.”

Cheongseong in Gangnam, the incarnation of Gangbuk.

They were two guilds that are dominantly divided between Seoul and Korea’s two largest guilds.

Of course, there is a limit to manpower even if it is a large guild, so small dungeons and security are left to local guilds located in each district.

Large guilds such as Cheongseong cover a much larger area, only selecting strong or lucrative dungeons, and only dealing with large cases so that their influence in them is solid.

And it has already been decades since this structure was established.

“A long time ago, the crisis of the whole nation and the end of humanity ended. This is the age of the Hunters! Only people like me are angry.”

Hwang Il-woo flirted and talked.

The employee next to him nodded as if he was listening hard, but in fact, it didn’t seem to matter whether he heard it or not.

Drumming!

“Here you are.”

Cheongseong’s A-rank Hunter Kang Il-hoon came out of the door.

Then Hwang Il-woo, who hurriedly turned off the cigarette, straightened his knees and woke up.

“I was just going to smoke this and go in. What’s the matter?”

“I want to ask you something. You were the last person in charge of Lee Sung-Hyun, right?”

“Mr. Lee… do you mean?”

When the unexpected name appeared, Hwang Il-woo’s expression was that of wonder.
