22.

The awakened are like ‘day laborers receiving minimum wage of 3.3 million won.’

Pay me the money regularly.

Let me learn some specialized skills.

My salary hasn’t even been paid yet.

When you get a job, the four major insurance policies also apply.

Even work-life balance is guaranteed.

“But you don’t have to do it.”

The problem is, how does it compare to things you can do comfortably while turning on the heater?

Well, let’s see. It doesn’t make sense to trade the candy and choose.

If you leave Korea, you will be the one who tries to bring them back somehow. It is a country that makes money through labor, so how can you benefit from focusing on something else?

“Should I get ready to go out? If we stay like this and get a time out, it’ll be a big problem.”

Kang Jin-young took off his suit coat and tied up his hair. His shirt was soaked with sweat, revealing his skin.

He may not seem to care, but he is not rational.

Oh, you’re so manly.

Lee Seong-han only glanced sideways and moved awkwardly. As a man himself, he was vulnerable to such stimulation.

“Ahem. Okay. ”

He holds the shattered doll fragments in his bosom.

“This smell is really.”

“Isn’t it dirty?”

“That’s right. Oh, what is that smell? It smells like radioactive waste.”

“Have you ever smelled the scent?”

“It’s a metaphor. It means that it’s that terrible.”

Lee Seong-han is not averse to hunting monsters.

It’s disgusting, that’s why. If you do it, you’re the kind of person who does it. Do you avoid poop because you’re scared of it, or because it’s dirty?

The Chinese manual labor scene without safety equipment would be a thousand times safer. Lee Seong-han was able to make a definite conclusion.

Monsters are sports cars built for killing.

A sports car that uses people as fuel, like Mephisto’s Mercy Gang, driven by 12+1 psychopaths who think they are characters from a novel.

Only an iron man can face such a sports car head-on and risk his life.

The reflection did not last long.

“Take this. This too!”

Because Kang Jin-young kept throwing things at me, things piled up like a mountain in an instant. I couldn’t see ahead.

Whoosh─

Whoosh─

Whoosh─

“Stop it!”

“No. You can do more! What if the female awakeners do something to you? Use this opportunity to build up some strength!”

“But there’s Jinyoung!”

“Shh.”

My two legs were tap dancing to receive it.

Soon a large tower as tall as an adult man was built.

“Well, that should be enough.”

Lee Seong-han, crouching against the wall, took a breath. He was tired. All the physical strength he had gained through exercise had been in vain.

“Ah, there’s something left here. Take it!”

Kang Jin-young shouted from the other side.

Whoosh─

Something the size of a head flew towards Lee Seong-han.

Draw a parabola at an exact angle.

“Oh, oh, oh, oh. Got me! ”

widely!

Lee Seong-han, who caught it all at once, confirmed its identity.

doll.

To be exact, it was an entity with only its head cut off.

‘This is what I stabbed with my dagger.’

Lee Seong-han scratched his head.

The source of supply, the thread, has disappeared. Why collect it when it will soon melt and disappear?

“By the way, where are you going to use it?”

“Because I need evidence. This is important if I want to arrest you.”

Kang Jin-young’s pronunciation matched that of a gangster from a certain movie.

“Ahem. Is that weird?”

“That’s weird.”

That’s right. When the response was lukewarm, he returned to a bright voice.

“Anyway, the capture of the Awakened is a joint responsibility of the Hunter Management Bureau and the 10th Bureau of the National Intelligence Service.”

His voice was distorted when he said ‘Hunter Bureau’.

“Stay there.”

Kang Jin-young magically cleared away the table debris.

“I will help you.”

“If you move, your arm will fly off~ I want to live with one arm like these guys.”

Kang Jin-young waved the doll’s arm as if it were a doll.

“Why do you keep talking like that? You make people feel uneasy. Seriously. I guess I have to cut you off to make you come to your senses.”

“I’ll be out soon, so just wait.”

“Yes, I understand. Yo─”

Kang Jin-young’s face became fierce.

“Name.”

“Yes, Mr. Jinyoung.”

“That’s right. That’s right. I’ll call you that from now on.”

“The last name must be added separately… … .”

“… … .”

“Okay.”

Lee Seong-han sat cross-legged again.

I don’t know how many times this has happened.

Now, we even have to do the emotional labor required for the service industry.

‘Is this why I joined the military?’

No.

Actually, I was brought here by force.

Don’t wake up for no reason.

Life was really hard.

“By the way, what happens to this doll?”

Lee Seong-han looked at Kang Jin-young and pointed to the Ronin doll lying on the floor.

The Ronin doll has already rotted.

A liquid as black as crude oil.

The refund was gushing out from all over the place.

It was probably the doll’s blood. The Ronin doll desperately tried to block the hole as if it wanted to live.

“Kikigeek.”

Of course it was a failure. The lifeline was cut.

My body was torn apart by a sword, or burned by magic.

Dying is all the same.

Kang Jin-young wiped away the beads of sweat with the arm he had grabbed.

“People. Cut the Seonghan seeds quickly. It’ll be annoying if there’s not enough of them when you work later.”

Phew.

Kang Jin-young raised her thin hand to cover her laughter.

“I guess it has its own cute side.”

While checking his attire, Kang Jin-young suddenly stopped.

He reached down to the floor and found something.

“Huh? What is this? Where.”

“What is it?”

“Credit card… …same. Should I wipe it?”

He took a handkerchief out of his pocket.

It was because there were a lot of things that were buried and walked around.

“Oh, I don’t need it.”

“Huh? Isn’t it dirty?”

“It’s better than Mr. Seonghan’s face getting dirty.”

Kang Jin-young wiped the card with the hem of his white shirt.

Anyway, all kinds of dirt will get stuck on it and I’ll throw it away.

After wiping it off, I realized it was a hunter’s license.

“Huh? This is Seonghan’s stuff.”

Lee Seong-han in the ID photo looked different than he does now.

He was young and full of chubby cheeks. The sound “Pfft.” came out of Kang Jin-young’s mouth.

“He was handsome even at this time.”

“Look, don’t look!”

“You have chubby cheeks so you have a cute side. Did you get your eyebrows tattooed too? You’re cute.”

Haa. A sigh escaped Lee Seonghan’s mouth.

He seemed to have given up and stopped resisting.

“… … I spent a lot of time in Busan as a freeloader. I got better after drinking college water.”

“Oh? Bad guy. This is not common.”

“Bad guy? No, I lived a good life. I even saved a kid who was trying to commit suicide.”

Kang Jin-young’s face hardened for a moment.

“… … Suicide? Do you remember anything? Well, she was a girl. She was wearing a school uniform. ”

Seo-an Lee answered, scratching the back of his head.

It’s an old memory so I’ve forgotten it all.

Because I have severe forgetfulness.

“I have a bad memory. Hehehe.”

“They say you’re rich.”

Kang Jin-young smiled faintly as if nothing had happened.

Tsupabababat!

Kang Jin-young grabbed his driver’s license.

Sparks flew into the air.

“Ahhh!”

It was similar to [Mental Barrier], but its strength was infinitely weaker.

[Mental Barrier] If this is the million volts of Mo Ani.

This spark is about ten thousand volts.

“Ah, over there. Over there.”

Kang Jin-young shook his hand, feeling it sting.

“I put a security spell on it so that only Sunghan can own it. It’s annoying. Huh.”

The security spell was difficult to dispel.

Because you need a key to open a real lock.

Are you putting all your effort into just getting a license?

It’s not that it can’t be solved, but it’s like trying to block something with a hoe with a sickle.

The first thing Kang Jin-young hated was that it was inefficient.

Kang Jin-young gestured as if to tell me to take it.

“Oh, thank you!”

Lee Seong-han got his driver’s license.

[Identity confirmed.]

[Registered.]

[There are currently two features available.]

▶[Check information]

▶[Order Request]

[F-Class Hunter License]

(Registered by: Lee Seong-han)

– Official license from the Hunter Association of Korea. All hunters are classified into ranks according to their strength.

– The current hunter rank is F-rank. It is the lowest rank in South Korea.

Lee Seong-han, holding his driver’s license with both hands, smiled brightly as if he was excited.

“I think I can finally live.”

“Why?”

“The deadline for the global service is shortened, right? Just submit this!”

Kang Jin-young saw that and screamed, ““Ugh.””

Global.

I didn’t want to waste the best talent in Korea like that.

You have to use it for a long time.

“Stop talking nonsense. There must be another reason, right?”

“No. I’m really going to be discharged.”

“You’re just the type of person who would be in the military.”

“Yes?”

“You must have other plans. You’re going to see your sister or something… … .”

Tingling.

Sparks flew from his gaze.

“No.”

“First of all, come to the National Intelligence Service. I will definitely take responsibility for your work-life balance.”

“I don’t like it.”

“Why? Just leave it to me.”

Lee Seong-han waved his hand and ignored the devil’s whispers.

The words that appear on the surface are good.

“Work-life balance is good. I work from home. Give me a house, and a place to sleep. They say men can’t sleep because of their sexual desires. Give me sexual desires at night. Wow, how good is that?”

“If you stick to other women, won’t you get horny and swing your dick all over the place? I have to catch you.”

“Should I just eat it now? I’ve been feeling pissed because I didn’t listen to you since earlier. Isn’t it because I’m so horny?”

Gulp.

“No, no. I think it would taste better if you let it sit a little longer.”

“… … .”

“Huh? Mr. Seonghan. Why are you looking at me like that? Like you saw a ghost.”

also.

I must not reveal my poison.

I have to take it to the grave.

“That’s because you’re so absent-minded. Let’s get out quickly.”

Lee Seong-han expressed his indifference and crowded the doll accessories in front of the door.

Shadow magic often stores magic in a specific target.

In other words, these dolls are the axes that make up space.

“Yes, you do. You just need to leave behind a few pieces of evidence.”

Kang Jin-young swept the floor with his fingers.

“The Flames of Purification!”

As soon as I cast the spell, the dolls piled up like a mountain burst into flames.

Clink.

The pitch-black chains blocking the door were released.

[The seal has been released.]

[The space is purified.]

As the flames died down, the door opened with a squeal on its hinges.

There were still many shadows.

“… … It’s still the same here.”

“Shadow magic is notorious for lasting a long time. Let’s get out of here.”

The hallway is still shrouded in shadow.

It was still dark, even though it had lightened considerably.

Kang Jin-young waved his hand.

“Rye─”

[A dark shadow digs into Kang Jin-young’s body.]

[Mana becomes polluted.]

Ugh.

Kang Jin-young vomited blood violently.

The hand holding the door frame was trembling.

Have you ever suffered a serious internal injury?

does not exist.

The sudden shock made my legs tremble like an aspen tree.

My strength drained and I collapsed on the floor.

Your complexion is not good.

“Body, body control.”

“Mr. Jinyoung!”

Why is this person like this?

Get up quickly and let’s go together!

Lee Seonghan felt the pulse. The blood vessels turned blue. Mana shock. A symptom that occurs when all the mana in the body is depleted.

He was second blood to the wizard.

Kang Jin-young was now close to a coma due to excessive bleeding.

“Your Majesty?”

“Major!”

A flashlight shone from far away.

It didn’t take long for me to realize that I was screwing myself.

“Your Majesty. Get away from him immediately. He could be a puppeteer.”

“Yes?”

A strange illusion made the situation worse.
