But let that thought last for a moment.

Lee Jun-woo spoke to her.

“Then, shall we move? An organization called Blood Jaguar. No, to the place where the non-licensed guild is located.”

Choi Hana nodded.

And a little while ago.

Lee Jun-woo briefly recalled the name of her organization.

‘Non-licensed guild.’

Like Lee Jun-woo said.

Violent organizations belonging to the underworld also present themselves as hunter guilds on the outside.

However, it does not receive formal license certification from the association.

At one time, it was treated as a criminal organization for that reason.

Now, those unlicensed guilds are also coexisting with ordinary citizens.

‘So Theia’s cadets can also cooperate together.’

Anyway, the association regularly collects membership fees from member guilds.

What the association did was no different from an underworld organization.

But Choi Hana was cautious.

I didn’t know what Lee Jun-woo would think of the underworld organization.

‘If you think about it calmly…’

I don’t think Lee Jun-woo hates the underworld that much.

Most cadets know this too.

In the current Major Hunter Guild.

If you don’t have a background, you can only play the role of a consumable.

But the underworld organization was different.

Although it has a pyramid structure of upper and lower organizations.

Still, if you show proper performance even in a lower level organization.

A structure that allows you to be scouted to a higher level organization and rise to a key position.

‘That too is a thing of the past now.’

Major organizations of the underworld were also stagnant.

The rules were extremely strict, and the hierarchy had to be strictly followed until a clear position was created.

In the end, most of them end up like bullets.

So the number of villains is not increasing for no reason.

The villain organization strictly prioritizes its own desires.

“Crimson Teeth may commit terrorism again.”

And Lee Jun-woo, who was walking together, said.

As he said.

Crimson Teeth is a famous villain organization.

In particular, they were crazy people who fearlessly used Chaotic, a potion with chaotic properties that had severe side effects.

‘The more chaos you cause, the stronger your power as a villain becomes…’

And that power was growing very large in a short period of time.

Choi Hana’s organization, Blood Jaguar, has already clashed with those villains several times.

We quickly arrived at the area where Chairman Jo Ah-rin had placed us.

At Choi Hana’s suggestion, the two decided to work together with Blood Jaguar.

“Hello.”

And Lee Jun-woo greeted the members of the organization first.

Choi Hana was nervous for a moment.

I introduced Blood Jaguar to him as an organization I learned about through Vice President Scarlett’s connections.

I also explained to the organization members in advance that one of my fellow cadets would be working with them today.

Still, Lee Jun-woo is still a cadet.

If I encountered someone from the underworld, I might inadvertently feel intimidated.

“Are they Theia’s cadets? Nice to meet you.”

And, of course, the person who welcomed the two was Hwang Yong-gyun, the deputy boss of the organization.

Skinhead sunglasses.

And a scar cut on his cheek with a sharp knife.

Intimidating muscular body.

Anyone can see that he looks like a so-called gangster.

It wasn’t just appearance.

Comparing it with a hunter license, he is strong enough to be in Class A.

You may be suppressing it yourself.

Naturally, the intimidation of a strong man flowed from him.

‘Like me, he hid his identity. If I tell you my real name, even famous hunters will know this person.’

If it weren’t for his loyalty to his father and his desire for revenge on the traitor.

He was not the kind of person who would rot in such a crappy organization.

And as he is a figure of the underworld who has been active since his father’s time.

Of course, this is not an ordinary personality.

If it were an ordinary cadet, it would be enough to make you sit there just by living.

He glanced at Choi Hana.

He showed his respect for his boss with his eyes.

However, the look he gave Lee Jun-woo was cold.

As much as he is a person from the underworld.

Being wary of strangers is basic.

First, he reached out to Lee Jun-woo, a guest of the organization.

If you are an awakened person like Hwang Yong-gyun.

Just by shaking hands, you can tell the strength and strength of the other person.

“Nice to meet you. If you’re a cadet of the prestigious Theia, you probably don’t like people from underworld like us. Still, if the goal is the same, the awakened person knows how to work together…”

It was that time.

Choi Hana was momentarily surprised.

“……”

Hwang Yong-gyun, who was shaking hands and trying to continue speaking, fell silent.

And then I saw something unbelievable.

Hwang Yong-gyun’s eyes trembled.

Unbelievably, fear seemed to flash across the underworld deputy boss’s face for a moment.

‘No way…?’

A person so bold that he doesn’t even blink an eye if someone cuts off his finger.

That Hwang Yong-gyun makes that kind of expression when he looks at a new student at Theia.

This cannot happen.

‘Cha, it must be an illusion, right?’

Lee Jun-woo smiled and responded to the handshake.

“Even though it’s only today, I hope you take good care of me.”

And, surprisingly, Lee Jun-woo.

He was smiling at Hwang Yong-gyun without any fear.

Hwang Yong-gyun, who came to his senses belatedly, quickly let go of his hand.

For a moment, he gave Choi Hana a look as if he wanted to ask something.

He quickly turned around and left the scene.

‘What happened. Does the deputy boss have an expression like that?’

Although I knew that Lee Jun-woo was not an ordinary person.

I didn’t know that even Hwang Yong-gyun would react like that.

And naturally, Chairman Jo Ah-rin’s words came to mind.

– Lee Jun-woo. He’s the most unusual type of cadet I’ve ever seen. Would you say it’s closer to irregular?

The evaluation that the Chairman said to Scarlett.

But this time, the thought stopped right there.

“Oh my. They are Theia’s cadets. Are you two a couple?”

Other gang members also approached the two people.

“What do you mean!”

Choi Hana urgently shouted.

members of her organization.

And in order to run the organization, they were members of Underdolls who were secretly working as vertubers.

***

Some time has passed since the Lunar New Year event began.

The event started at 2pm.

Eight hours had already passed and it was 10 p.m.

“The day is humid. I don’t think it would be strange if it rained anytime.”

Choi Hana, who was next to me, said.

As she said, rain was scheduled in the weather forecast.

‘In the original, the quest started when it rained.’

In addition to the rain, the unique smell of magic that can be felt near monsters and in dungeons was getting stronger.

This means that the gate may suddenly open.

But the event continued.

The Baekjeol event is an all-night event.

It is a ritual that purifies even the current demonic energy with the power of a saint.

Wooow-

The divine power emanating from Marianne, the saint of purity, covered the entire Gwanghwamun area.

‘If it goes according to the original, the gate will open in two hours.’

Crimson Teeth wants to make his name known to the world.

That’s why we pierce that saint’s divine power and cause terrorism today.

Of course, there are many awakened people in the area guarding the citizens.

Crimson Teeth uses gates as well as villain terror.

I calmly pictured the scenario in my head.

Unknown is a villain, not an apostle of justice.

The people I need to help are the citizens.

To be exact, it is a blood jaguar guarding those citizens.

‘It won’t be easy.’

It is both a crisis and an opportunity for the Blood Jaguars.

If chaos is completely prevented in the area assigned to the organization.

In small and medium-sized organizations, you can become more known.

‘So my quest is also about defense in this area.’

As it is the first quest of the underworld side.

The mission had to be accomplished by appropriately utilizing the power of the Blood Jaguar.

Above all, through this mission, you can take over the higher-level organization, Mad Knife.

Mad Knife is an organization to which Blood Jaguar pays tribute.

Although it is an organization one level lower than the organization that Jeong Si-woo’s father belongs to.

‘But it’s still better than the current Blood Jaguar.’

The organization currently led by Choi Hana.

To put it bluntly, 70% of that power is Hwang Yong-gyun, the deputy boss.

I suddenly thought back to what happened with him in the morning.

He said to me as I entered the venue area with Choi Hana.

I shook hands.

Of course, as he was a person from the underworld, it was not an ordinary handshake.

A grade A high-ranking awakened person.

To that extent, I am next to my boss, Choi Hana.

There must have been thoughts of trying to figure out what kind of person he was.

It means that even if it is not a life, it is not a favor either.

Right then.

The hidden title Unknown has been activated.

[Title]=========================

​

[Hidden title is in effect.]

​​

▶ Unknown / Hidden

​

* Title effect

: Attack power increases against targets whose side belongs to the underworld.

: The effect increases further during a surprise attack. At the same time, a ‘fear’ debuff is applied.​

​

▷▷ Organization member Hwang Yong-gyun / Underworld side: Blood Jaguar

: The title effect is applied.

​

================================​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I saw Hwang Yong-gyun’s eyes tremble as he made eye contact with me.

I too was surprised at that moment.

‘It wasn’t bone china, but it worked for someone as strong as Hwang Yong-gyun.’

Unknown, a fraudulent title that increases attack power and applies a fear debuff to underworld side characters at the same time.

The meaning was great.

As long as it works for A-class awakened people.

This means that you can maintain a morale level buff even against most villains.

‘If you think about it, it wouldn’t have been that impossible.’

When you kill Horror Hole through the tutorial.

That villain’s grade exceeds A.

Perhaps, the judgment range for hidden titles seemed to be quite wide.

‘Anyway, it went well.’

Blood Jaguar is the worst organization.

In the end, it had to become an unknown organization.

In that respect, Hwang Yong-gyun is someone who can be an obstacle.

However, with this buff, it will be easier to persuade him in the future.

I patrolled the surrounding area and fiddled with my paladin sword.

At that time, the female Blood Jaguar members I met again pretended to know me.

“Ha-am… Nothing special. Junwoo, aren’t you tired too? It’s a very boring mission for a college student who is old enough to play.”

Soon three people surrounded me.

Even so, these three people don’t seem to have much of an age difference with me.

Everyone’s outfits were impressive.

Tight leggings.

Otherwise, she was wearing a dress that revealed the curves of her body.

Of course, it means that you have a body that can wear that outfit.

‘Well, isn’t it strange that he’s doing a female cam?’

It was like that in the original as well.

Choi Hana’s subordinates.

In particular, female members of the organization have earned the organization’s operating expenses through Internet broadcasting and female cam activities.

Although they were all awakened.

That was a lot more profitable than a clumsy dungeon raid.

‘Then, of course, Underdolls…’

Choi Hana was Na Haring.

Of course, those three members of her organization are also members of Underdolls.

It must be a vertuber.

I felt strange looking at those three.

Because you are seeing the real thing of the Virtuber, not a 3D version.

‘While watching the Naharing video… I also watched other members’ videos.’

Naturally, there are many viewers who want to know about Virtue’s red pill.

The word red pill.

That’s a slang term that refers to a vertuber’s appearance in real life.

But when you actually find out about the red pill.

There are quite a few people who curse at the discrepancy between the vertuber’s character and reality.

‘Well, if that’s the case, the Red Pill will become much more popular once it’s released.’

It’s not for nothing that he was working as a female cam in the original work.

This means that body shape and dancing are basic.

Anyway, those three kept talking to me as if they were friends.

The tension among all three was very high.

I’m not an introvert either.

The internal tension between those three was so overwhelming.

Among them, there was a blonde-haired female gang member named Jeong No-eul.

came to me suddenly.

I guess I was always curious about the relationship between Choi Hana and me.

“I heard that Hana got a necklace she didn’t have before. Junwoo, aren’t you the one who gave it as a gift?”

She quietly put her arms around me.

And whispered in my ear.

“I know because I’m a little close to Hana personally. I’ve become strangely more feminine these days. Should I say that my sexiness has increased a bit?”

At that time, Hana Choi, who witnessed the incident, hurriedly approached me.

“Noeul unnie! What are you doing to my classmate… Huh?”

It was that moment.

Drop- Drop-

It started pouring rain.

And then what I expected happened.

[The effect of the passive skill ‘Fire Power Training (lv.2) is reduced.]

[The effect of the active skill ‘Divine Strike – 「Goddess’ Flame Sword」’ is reduced.]

It was natural that it would rain.

Even in the original work, this quest was quite difficult with only a fire attribute character.

‘Choi Hana is developing the second awakening with the fire attribute.’

So it’s a difficult quest for her too.

Not only that, it was the same for me too.

This means that the effectiveness of my main skill, the Flame Sword of the Goddess, will be reduced.

‘That’s why it’s so difficult.’

However, I looked again at the pendant hanging around Choi Hana’s neck.

Barrier pendant.

The new power created with that aquamite necklace is of water attribute.

There was a way to overcome the current debuff.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak-

It was that moment.

Explosive sounds began to be heard in Gwanghwamun Square.

“Everyone be careful!”

As I shouted that, I immediately activated my authority.
