“Huh? Are you not a combat type?”

Arin, who had naturally assumed that he was a combat hunter since he had come to tour the raid, opened his eyes wide and asked back at the unexpected answer.

“..Ah, yes.”

I’m glad I didn’t set up a detailed setup with Geon-woo.

If I had planned it out and delivered it, it would have raised even more suspicion.

“I see.”

He didn’t say anything more, but his expression clearly showed why he had come to the raid.

“It may sound a little strange, but… I’m your fan, so I came here because I begged Geonwoo.”

He could have just ignored it and ignored it since he didn’t ask questions, but Seojun didn’t want to be a strange person who left questions to Arin.

So this time, I spoke frankly about my feelings.

Of course, it was an exaggeration to say that he had begged Geon-woo, but it was clear that his dignity as a guild master would be lowered to say that he asked him to come and tour it because he was a fan.

You could hear that you can’t distinguish between public and private life.

“Ah? I see! omg! This is my first time meeting that fan! So do you watch my broadcast too?”

“Yes, I watch both Sua and Arin’s broadcasts.”

“Wow! Really? oh my god! Wow, I can’t believe I got to see a fan like this…!”

It happened in an instant that Arin’s expression, which had been questioning until just now, brightened.

I also thought about what I would do if someone thought it was creepy that someone I knew had come to take advantage of me after hearing that I was a fan.

Fortunately, Arin responded positively.

“So you’re not even a combat type, so you came all the way here to see us?”

“Ah, yes… it was a bit too much. But I really wanted to see it at least once.”

“Hehe, thank you for liking it. If you watch the broadcast, you will know that I have suffered trauma and am finally able to get back on my feet.”

Seojun knew that fact better than any other fan.

“It’s definitely thanks to the fans that we were able to stand up so quickly.”

Seojun smiled at Arin who spoke warm words to him.

Of course, you can’t see Arin because she’s covered by the mask.

“Something really bad happened to me, so I couldn’t be interested in anything for a while. After seeing Arin, I was able to stand up again. I always wanted to say hello and thank you more.”

Of course, it wasn’t like that because I saw it on TV.

Anyway, it was true that Seojun decided to move forward again thanks to the four people.

For that, I always wanted to say thank you.

However, since I had never thought about meeting them, my feelings that I had been suppressing inside my heart burst out when I started talking to Arin.

“Arin, Suah, Chaeyun, and Nahyeon. Everyone is really great. When a problem arose, I didn’t have the confidence to overcome it, so I just covered it up and tried to do nothing. The four of you tried to move on.”

Even though he was expelled from the guild and shunned by the association, he tried to save people.

Such efforts to help the world by making the most of their power were not something that everyone could do.

“Well, thank you very much. And I don’t know if I can say this to my fans, but I’m actually not that great of a person.”

Seojun’s story wasn’t something he brought up to start a battle of misfortune, saying that he felt burdened or that he was also unhappy.

“Actually, there were many times when I tried to give up on everything. I felt like nothing was working and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t see the future.”

Even after saving people and getting criticized, I sometimes wondered if this was really what I wanted to do.

“But there was someone who reached out to me so that I could take a step forward. That’s the current Gilma. In the end, I wouldn’t have been able to stand up without external help.”

Arin paused for a moment to catch her breath and spoke again.

“But you’re not Seojun. Of course, standing up while holding someone’s hand can be a great thing. Even though Seojun got strength from us, he stood up on his own. Isn’t that really, really amazing?”

The eyes and mouth that sparkle and speak sincerely are as beautiful as starlight.

Seojun thought about that for a moment.

“Haha, I see. Thank you for saying that. Really, I feel strong.”

I always get the strength to move forward from you.

So I hope you can be happy forever.

The power of wishing for someone’s happiness that comes from deep within one’s heart is helping even Seojun rise up with him more than he thought.

Seojun didn’t know much yet.

“Alright, let’s finish our break and get ready to enter the boss room!”

As the two people were about to finish their story, they heard Chae-yoon’s shout.

I don’t know when he came back, but Geon-woo also sneaked up next to Seo-jun.

“Where have you been?”

“I really looked around and came here.”

“Hmm.”

“Why, wasn’t this a situation I had to get out of?”

Still, it looks like he’s gotten used to speaking informally to Seojun as he approaches the gate.

Seeing Geonwoo speaking quite comfortably, Seojun just sighed and stood up.

“Then, good luck Seojun, and let’s talk later when we have time!”

“Ah, yes..! Good luck in the boss room too..!”

This is Seojun having a hard time with someone.

“It’s really unfamiliar.”

“What.”

“The sight of you being so embarrassed by someone.”

“..I’m a bit unfamiliar too.”

I have never been this embarrassed by someone in my entire life.

To that extent, Seojun himself felt more unfamiliar with that appearance than anyone else.

“Okay then, let’s go in.”

I was able to recover my mana sufficiently using potions, and by resting, my mental fatigue was taken care of to some extent.

“First, Nahyun, cast Haste.”

“Okay.”

Nahyun’s Haste was applied not only to the four people, but to all people inside the gate.

“It’s amazing, really. My body becomes lighter.”

Seojun felt amazing every time he received Haste, as it was his first time receiving such a buff.

“But is it normal to apply a buff to the entire range like this?”

“No, usually one person at most. It is common to have two or three people walk at most.”

After hearing Geon-wu’s answer, Seo-jun fell into trouble.

Same goes for Arin and Nahyun.

It was clear that he had abilities that could be said to be far superior to others.

‘I don’t know because I haven’t seen Su-ah in action yet. I think Chaeyun needs to go into the boss room to find out… but what is certain is that everyone’s abilities are superior. First of all, Chaeyoon’s ability as a leader is better than his tanking ability.’

The boss room I entered while worrying so much was a gloomy room with something that looked like an altar used to offer sacrifices.

Although it was inside, the temperature was similar to or lower than outside.

[You have entered the boss room! ]

[The D-rank boss monster ‘Snowy Giant Yeti’ appears! ]

A message about entering the boss room appeared before the eyes of everyone inside the gate.

“Is this the beginning?”

Here, the instructors and even Geonwoo could not relax.

Since most of the gate’s magic is concentrated on the boss, a situation could arise where the first four people in the raid would be in danger.

(Wow, the boss room… looks really cold…)

(Oh, there, there, there!!! It came out siㅣㅣㅣㅣㅏㅏㅏㅏ)

As the broadcast, which had been temporarily paused during the break, resumed, the chat window began to flood the boss room, where broadcast viewers also appeared.

“Arin, prepare a fire wave just in case.”

“Okay.”

The boss monster is a D-level boss monster.

This meant that there was a high possibility that aggro would not be attracted due to Chaeyun’s lack of strength.

“Going..!”

Anyway, if you preheat the fire wave, it could serve as plan B when tanking doesn’t work.

Even if tanking worked well, it wasn’t bad to use as the next attack.

Chaeyun threw herself in the direction of the boss and used her tanking skills while praying desperately.

“Kuuu!”

The giant yeti, excited by the sudden crowd of humans, turned its gaze toward Chae-yoon and began stomping its feet.

“It worked…!”

Actually, I thought it would never work.

Chae-yoon was surprised that it worked better than expected, but as calmly as possible, he threw himself into the corner and ordered Arin to attack.

“Fire Wave!”

Yeti, who was looking towards Chae-yoon, was startled and tried to block the magic that flew in.

“Kuuuh…!”

The fire wave that hit the target began to burn the Yeti’s body.

“Okay, I’ll show you properly this time too..!”

And while the Yeti was distracted, Su-a approached from behind and activated a stabbing skill that had only stabbed her once before.

Pabababat-!

The sight of the dagger stabbing Yeti’s vital points over and over again without stopping was truly spectacular.

“What, an E-class hunter can overpower a D-class monster like that?”

Of course, it could be said that Arin’s fire wave combined with Chae-yoon’s aggressor took away some of his mind and stamina.

Even so, Sua’s offensive power was enormous.

The fact that the stabbing, which previously could only be stabbed once, is repeated dozens of times.

“It looks like your skill level is high…?”

This was impossible unless the skill level was high.

‘Sua’s stabbing skill level was 3 after receiving the Done buff correction…?’

Seojun couldn’t help but shudder as he recalled Su-ah’s status window that he had checked before leaving.

‘That level of efficiency is only achieved at level 3…?’

There seemed to be a reason for the high potential.

Their potential is at the highest level, S level.

“Huh, really… At this rate, it would be possible to clear the C-class gate with just the four of us, right?”

Geon-woo was equally embarrassed when he saw that.

Even to an A-level hunter, their skills and speed were unbelievable that all of their grades were E and the highest grade was D.

No matter how many instructors were attached to strengthen the basics and increase physical strength, not many people were able to achieve an efficiency exceeding 200% compared to the same grade.

[The ‘Giant Yeti of the Snowfield’ has fallen! ]

[ Defeat the owner of the gate and the ‘Cold Snow Field’ strategy will end! ]

[The gate is completely closed after 2 hours! ]

[ 2:00:00 ]

Not long after entering the boss room, the boss strategy was completed.

A notification that the gate was closing flashed before everyone’s eyes.

“…First, tell the collection team to come in.”

When Geon-woo radioed to the hunter waiting at the entrance, people rushed inside to collect the magic stone from the boss room.

“This is really… crazy. Looks like we’re raising a monster.”
