Chapter Index

    “What brings you here?”

    Noeul Jeong said to me with a grin.

    Although I’m wearing a cafe clerk’s apron.

    Long blonde hair.

    And thanks to her glamorous body, she had a strange atmosphere even in ordinary everyday clothes.

    Actually, his age isn’t that much different from mine.

    It suddenly occurred to me that she would have been very popular if she had been Theia’s cadet.

    ‘what. Just looking at that appearance, no one would think he was a member of an underworld organization.’

    Although this was a private cafe.

    Overall, the interior was dull.

    In addition, the building it was located in also looked old on the outside.

    It’s not strange.

    This area, where old buildings are concentrated in the Jongno area, was home to many offices of underworld organizations.

    This old building is the territory of one organization, the Blood Jaguars.

    ‘So I deliberately made an appointment here.’

    It is a dark and dangerous place for young people to visit.

    Of course, part-time workers are not easy to find and labor costs are high.

    It seemed like the female gang members were taking over the cafe work.

    ‘It seems like there aren’t many customers. ‘You can do that.’

    I answered Noeul Jeong.

    “I decided to study here with Hana.”

    “Really? There must be many good cafes near Theia Library or campus! How dare you come to such a gloomy place. Isn’t that amazing?”

    Jeong No-eul looked at me with puzzled eyes.

    “I heard that the cafe here is quiet and good for studying.”

    “Ah! It’s not wrong. Hi-Hi. There are really no customers here.”

    Even the clerk, Jeong No-eul, could not deny those words.

    He even cleared the counter and came up to me and started talking to me.

    In fact, not only this cafe but the entire alley where this building was located was empty.

    Soon she looked at me with strange eyes.

    “By the way. How are things going with Hana these days?”

    “What does that mean suddenly?”

    “A. It’s a time when only young college freshmen really want to date. It’s common knowledge that a lot of CCs are created at the beginning of the semester!”

    It wasn’t wrong.

    I was so busy that I didn’t have time to pay attention to my surroundings.

    It seemed like a lot of couples were already forming in the liberal arts department and the crime lab.

    ‘Because they’re a couple… ‘

    At that time, Noeul Jeong went back to the counter as the delivery order came in.

    “Wait a minute! Talk to you again in a bit!”

    Jeong No-eul said it as if she was disappointed.

    Actually, I wasn’t relaxed enough to be interested in dating.

    In particular, the atmosphere in the underworld right now was unusual.

    ***

    For a moment, I summarized the recent situation in the underworld in my head.

    Hunter Association and Apostle of Valhalla.

    The underworld also became confused due to the antagonism between the two great powers.

    The Hunter Association already has significant collusion with the underworld.

    Therefore, the apostle of Valhalla was actively interfering in the affairs of the underworld in the name of eliminating villains.

    ‘The more we weaken the power of the underworld, the more of the pie the Apostle of Valhalla can take.’

    To the public, it is as if the Apostle of Valhalla can accomplish what the Association cannot.

    Press play was possible.

    So for me, it was a definite opportunity.

    ‘We can take advantage of this chaos to expand the power of Blood Jaguar.’

    For that purpose, I came to this Blood Jaguar building.

    Hwang Yong-gyun, deputy boss of Blood Jaguar.

    He, who replaces Choi Hana as the actual boss, also works at this office.

    I was planning on contacting him as an unknown person sometime soon.

    ‘Blood Jaguar’s upper organization Mad Knife. ‘You should definitely eat it.’

    You have to be at least that big to be able to do something in the underworld.

    My ultimate goal is.

    Even the villain organization Crimson Teeth is under my control.

    Crimson Teeth will continue to work directly not only in the underworld, but also in Theia like last time.

    ‘Sooner or later, they will touch the sub-race cadets.’

    The vampire Fatal Blood, an A-level villain who came out of the old campus and attacked my group.

    We will start a new job under the instructions of the executive behind him.

    ‘I think almost no one knows the identity of that executive other than me, who knows the original work.’

    Among the main cadets in the original work, quite a few are from sub-races.

    Song Shia and Jeong Woon-kyung from Aigis.

    And Lim Jae-ho from the middle class is also a sub-race.

    Although it is the main quest of the main character, An Yu-min.

    I also planned to participate in the quest like last time.

    ‘Because if Song Xia is involved, we can obtain demonic power.’

    It was especially difficult if Song Xia directly participated in Crimson Teeth.

    If she is of Jinhyeol’s blood, she will be of great help to that villain group.

    I plan to grow my power in the underworld faster than Crimson Teeth.

    I needed a practitioner to help me.

    ‘I have to win Hwang Yong-gyun’s favor.’

    Choi Hana, daughter of the legendary boss.

    Hwang Yong-gyun is like her adoptive father.

    If he becomes my right hand man.

    This means gaining wings in my future activities as an Unknown.

    ‘Hwang Yong-gyun is very loyal to Choi Hana… ‘

    Of course, there is nothing wrong with being on good terms with Choi Hana.

    Even if it is not immediately revealed that Unknown and Lee Jun-woo are the same person.

    If he becomes my limb, I will eventually find out.

    However, unlike the members of Aegis, against Choi Hana.

    I didn’t move based on pure self-interest.

    She is already very friendly towards me.

    A colleague I can trust.

    So, I was also treating her with sincerity.

    Of course, only as friends.

    At that time, Noeul Jeong approached me again with an expectant look in her eyes.

    “One says it will take a while to get here. So be honest. Are you really not interested?”

    He quietly sat down next to me.

    The t-shirt he was wearing was so loose that it was difficult to take a quick glance at him.

    I was silent for a moment at Noeul Jeong’s words.

    In fact, I never thought that I would have feelings for Choi Hana that went beyond being a friend.

    But it would be a lie to say that I have no feelings at all these days.

    ‘Maybe it’s because I watch too many of Naharing’s broadcasts.’

    Thanks to my mental strength of 90.

    I didn’t think much of it even though Jeong No-eul, who seemed like such a charming older sister, was sitting right next to me.

    Strangely enough, I have been deeply immersed in Naharing these days, to the point where I can be said to be a big fan.

    Jeong No-eul was also a popular vertuber under the nickname Yunori.

    In Underdolls, my number one pick was Naharing as well.

    ‘Do I like pink short hair?’

    Or maybe that just proves that Choi Hana’s broadcasting skills are outstanding.

    As I was watching her broadcast, I accidentally watched her broadcast while connected to TKA TV.

    I usually looked at it as non-login just in case.

    Still, it’s Naharing’s broadcast with a lot of viewers. It won’t be a problem.

    In fact, it was for her sake that I purposely made today’s study appointment here.

    Not only can I help you study theory for your midterm exam.

    If she studies here, she won’t have any trouble broadcasting.

    ‘Because I’m going to study all night tonight. But we can’t just close it.’

    Today is Friday night.

    If the show goes on hiatus during this prime time, Naharing’s fans will turn dark.

    Not only Choi Hana, but all of Underdolls’ broadcasting equipment is set up in this office.

    In many ways, there were enough reasons to come here.

    I talked a little more with Jeong No-eul and waited for Choi Hana.

    About an hour later, she arrived here.

    ***

    Choi Hana was sitting in a subway seat.

    Long black hair.

    Although there were many people who glanced at her with an innocent appearance.

    And the bad-looking tattooed men also glanced at her, but soon everyone avoided their gaze.

    The clothes Choi Hana is wearing are Theia Academy cadet uniforms.

    So, of course, it was proof that he was not an ordinary person, but an awakened person with a hunter license.

    Even if the most elite martial arts athlete among ordinary people steps forward.

    Even hunters with low license levels cannot beat it.

    There was no way an ordinary person could flirt with Choi Hana.

    So Choi Hana held her bag in her hand.

    I could continue to be lost in my thoughts.

    ‘Is it okay to continue broadcasting like this?’

    Blood Jaguar, an organization with Choi Hana as the boss.

    I started working as a vertuber to raise operating funds for the organization.

    The total amount is very large.

    As of now, I couldn’t carelessly quit my Underdolls crew activities.

    Above all, Na Haring, the name of the vertuber Choi Hana is active in, is the sign of Underdolls.

    Even if other crew members can rest for a while.

    Rather, Choi Hana couldn’t just take a break.

    “Whew… ”

    I sighed involuntarily.

    Deputy boss Hwang Yong-gyun began to move.

    Several other organization offices under Mad Knife were raided and included under Blood Jaguar.

    A clear rebellion against the parent organization Mad Knife.

    But the justification was enough.

    At the Baekjeol event, Mad Knife behaved disgracefully, while Blood Jaguar did a great job.

    Hwang Yong-gyun and the members of the fighting organization were continuing to fight secretly.

    For her organization.

    So, now I am doing internet broadcasting as a boss.

    I couldn’t feel at ease.

    – Bosses, please focus only on academy classes and broadcasting activities. This uprising was possible because of Underdolls, so there is no need to worry too much.

    Still, Hwang Yong-gyun was considerate of him.

    In fact, through Underdolls’ activities, we were able to purchase many items for the organization.

    Choi Hana was in a dilemma in many ways.

    At that time, she saw a member of the public watching a YouTube video nearby.

    ‘It’s Naharing!’

    Coincidentally, I was watching a clip video of Na Haring.

    The image of Na Haring doing a popular dance in short-form content was being played.

    ‘Gee, I can’t believe I’m watching something like Virtuber on the subway… ‘

    But these days, even in the in-room community.

    It was said that there was a post saying that more and more people are watching Underdolls clips on the subway.

    Although Virtuber was relatively close to the shadows even in the other room.

    Thanks to the success of Underdolls’ association with the Mungseokkkyu crew, they shed their image of being more shady than expected.

    Naturally, Naharing played a large part in the reason.

    Choi Hana closed her eyes and thought of her as Na Haring.

    ‘Just wear VR equipment… I feel like I’m becoming a different person.’

    In real life, I couldn’t dance because I was too embarrassed, but I was able to dance and sing more skillfully than female cams or idols.

    And even voice chat drips suitable for the living room or personal communication broadcasts.

    But as expected, Naharing and her in real life were different.

    It was inevitable that there would be a bit of a hit like now.

    She carefully accessed Tkat TV with her smartphone.

    And, as is her habit, in her broadcast account log.

    I was trying to search for a viewer’s ID.

    That’s Lee Jun-woo’s email ID.

    I already knew him through email, through participating in various party activities and taking classes.

    ‘I hope at least Lee Jun-woo doesn’t watch Na Haring’s broadcast.’

    Although she may not have known that she was Naharing.

    Just thinking about Lee Jun-woo watching Naharing’s broadcast, the live broadcast, made me feel very strange.

    Fortunately, there was no record of Lee Jun-woo watching her broadcast so far.

    Surely, it should have been so.

    “Yes… ?”

    But she froze in place.

    In the viewer records, there was Lee Jun-woo’s email ID.

    This is also a record of watching the broadcast that made the broth properly just a few days ago.

    The subway soon arrived at Jongno, where Blood Jaguar’s office was located.

    And at the cafe run by the organization.

    Lee Jun-woo, who arrived first, was waiting.

    Choi Hana’s hair turned white.
