[An emergency quest has occurred.]

“… … .”

At this point, I even feel like the whole world is trying to interfere with my sex.

… Why are you doing this to me?

I feel like I want to pass it up like when I chose to go on a date with Shin Yu-jeong, but I’ll hold back for now.

In the end, it is true that the quest reward at that time was of great help to me.

Also, this opponent is not as important as before.

[The ‘Explorer of Destruction’ is trying to come to Earth through the dungeon.]

[You must find and eliminate the explorers hiding in the dungeon.]

[If you fail to remove the explorer within the set time, the probability of disaster increasing.]

[There is a very special reward hidden in the explorer’s body.]

[Also, more special rewards will be given to those ranked 1st to 5th who eliminated the most seekers.]

[It provides a mini-map that automatically marks the location of seekers within a 30km radius of the user.]

[Everyone on Earth.]

[I wish you good luck.]

[Time Remaining: 71:59:59]

[Remaining population within the territory of the Republic of Korea: 300/300]

“… what.”

This atmosphere is quite unusual.

He is a ‘searcher who brings about destruction’ and disaster is coming.

It feels so cheap, and the feeling that I will regret it greatly if I let go just because I don’t like it as much as before is gnawing at me.

“There’s a hotel near here… , Should I make a reservation right now?”

Jo Yoon-kyung asks while showing me a photo of the hotel on my smartphone screen.

An expression full of anticipation.

It seems like my body is getting hotter.

Why am I sorry about this?

“sorry. “Something urgent suddenly came up, so I can’t have sex.”

“what? hey… ! “Where is something like that all of a sudden?”

A guy who despairs as if he has lost the whole world when he is told he can’t have sex.

He got up from his seat, lowered his upper body, and whispered softly into her ear.

“I’ll be there as soon as I finish work, so I’m waiting for you dressed up as best as you can. “So that I really want to have sex.”

“Ugh… .”

Why is he like this?

It was just a whisper, but I don’t know where I felt it.

Jo Yoon-kyung asks, twisting her body with an even more mischievous expression.

“Uh, when are you going to come…?” .”

“well.”

There are about 72 hours left… .

“I can go within three days at the latest.”

“Four, three days? Hey, that’s too late… !”

“Then let’s go.”

“Hey, wait a minute, Kim Do-jin… !”

I leave the cafe immediately, leaving behind the boy who is desperately calling me.

A small holographic window floating in the right corner of my field of vision stands out.

Is that the mini map?

As I focused my vision in that direction, the very small hologram window immediately grew larger.

“oh.”

I checked the minimap with a little admiration, and there were red dots indicating my location and blue dots that were expected to be the searcher’s location.

The number is seven.

They say there are seven searchers hiding within a 30km radius from here… .

“The remaining population was definitely 300… .”

I looked at the previous quest log in more detail.

The phrase ‘within the territory of the Republic of Korea’ written in front of the remaining population is disturbing.

“You mean there are 300 evenly distributed throughout Korea?”

In other words, in order to hunt seekers, you inevitably have to travel around the country.

“I think the starting line will be roughly the same.”

The special reward given only to 1st to 5th place attracts attention.

If only 5 out of 504 people can get it, it seems like a pretty tasty reward.

“It doesn’t seem like it will be easy to target, but… .”

Here the road splits.

Do you kill the explorers in a reasonably stable manner, or do you take a different route from others?

If you are aiming to enter the top 5, the former will be absolutely impossible, and the latter is highly risky.

If you try to get everything, you might end up getting nothing and going away empty-handed.

In this case, my answer is fixed.

“Even if I can’t eat it, I’ll pay it.”

Still ranked 504th out of 504 people… , No, I think I can beat the girl I met last time, so now I’m ranked 503rd?

anyway.

The only way for a person struggling at rock bottom to rise to the top quickly and surely is through gambling.

On my way home, I take out my smartphone and call Ji-an Yoon.

“Jian, let’s go on a three-day, two-night trip.”

-Yeah… ?

I need her help.

* * *

Seongtae Kim made a puzzled expression as he looked at the piece of paper that was presented to him.

“So this is… “Are you saying these are the things Kim Do-jin requested?”

“… yes.”

Yoon Ji-an shakes his head with an embarrassed expression.

It’s worth it.

The documents she handed out included things that were difficult to hand over.

“Free pass exclusive to the association… , even permission to enter all dungeons within the territory of the Republic of Korea… .”

The association-exclusive free pass is a private road to be used when traveling to rural areas for urgent official work, as well as free access to dungeons.

“… Are you planning on going on a national dungeon tour?”

“Well, I don’t know. I only received the message… .”

“Hmm.”

These are too many things to give to aspiring hunters who just support them.

A free pass that only association employees can use, plus entry to all dungeons.

If it had been the same, it would have been right to refuse it outright.

‘What on earth are you trying to do? .’

The demands are too excessive, and the target of the request is Kim Do-jin, so it bothers me.

There is no such thing as me.

As soon as he entered college through special admission, he won the top prize, and even that was not enough to become a promising hunter who received enthusiastic support from the public.

All of this happened in just a few months, so how can we not be excited?

“Uh… .”

While he was struggling, Yun Ji-an carefully spoke.

“Well, Mr. Kim Do-jin had something to tell you when the manager looked worried.”

“… “Tell me.”

“If you’re going to push me, I want you to push me hard… .”

“under.”

Arrogant and arrogant.

If an ordinary aspiring hunter had said something like that, he would have definitely been offended.

But since Kim Do-jin said that, it makes sense.

The timing of having Yoon Ji-an speak out was also extremely appropriate.

“great. “Can I issue both in Jian Yoon’s name?”

“Oh, yes!”

“Go tell Kim Do-jin.”

He continued speaking with a meaningful smile.

“The more you push, the more you should reciprocate.”

Complete your travel preparations by simply putting a few clothes and underwear into a large-capacity bag.

All you have to do is bring your wallet and flashlight, and you’re ready.

Jiying-

Just as I was getting ready to leave, I received a call from Ji-an Yoon.

When I go outside, I see her car parked in front of the building.

I go straight down, get in the passenger seat, and enjoy the reunion with the girl I haven’t seen in a few days.

“Well, how have you been?”

She barely managed to say hello, her face turning bright red as if she remembered that night.

Should I just throw away everything I’m doing as a searcher and stop by a hotel first… ?

How can this guy’s body just stay standing all the time?

I try to suppress my desire and say hello to her.

“I’ve been doing well. “Shall we talk about it when we go?”

“Ah, yes. “Then let’s leave.”

As she drives out of the alley, the navigation inputs the destination.

[Guidance begins.]

Yoon Ji-an’s eyes widen as he checks the destination on the navigation.

“Are you going to Busan?”

“First of all, what is our first destination?”

There is only one reason why I want to go to Busan.

From there, the goal was to climb up to Seoul in reverse order and attack the dungeon where the explorer was hiding.

I don’t know how many there will be, but since most ‘qualified people’ will start in Seoul, I will go in the opposite direction.

If there are more explorers distributed in the provinces, I will have an advantage, and if there are more explorers centered in Seoul, my gamble will end in failure.

While others are steadily eliminating searchers around Seoul, I feel burdened by having to spend time moving around… Well, isn’t that what gambling is all about?

“If Busan is your first destination… “Is there anything after that?”

“There is.”

If you have to be with her for 3 days and 2 nights, you might need to tell her your schedule in advance.

“We will tour dungeons across the country, starting from Busan.”

“yes? “You mean all the dungeons across the country?”

He shakes his head at her surprised expression and adds an explanation.

“Not all, just a few dungeons worth visiting?”

After hearing my answer, she tilts her head and asks a question.

“There are a lot of dungeons in Seoul, so is there a need to go to the countryside?”

“hmm… “It’s just that I also travel.”

Her words are the truth, so there is nothing I can say as an excuse.

In times like this, you have to appeal to your emotions.

“why… ? “Do you not want to go on a trip with me?”

“Well, that’s absolutely not the case! “I just asked because I was curious!”

“Then I’m glad.”

As expected, it works well.

“The schedule is 2 nights and 3 days, so it will be a bit tight.”

“it’s okay.”

She answered cheerfully, pursing her lips.

It looks like there’s something left to say.

After hesitating for a moment, the words she spoke were very heart-fluttering.

“Everything is fine with Do-jin and me.”

Who would have thought that the blunt Yoon Ji-an would say something like that first… .

My heart feels grand.
