“Hmm…it’s simpler than I thought?”

The next day after breaking up with Sooyoung, Jihoon came to Big Number Guild alone.

Compared to the status of the guild that I had heard from Sooyoung, I was rather surprised by the size of the building, which was not that big.

Although it boasted a clean and modern appearance with luxurious finishing materials…

‘Of all the guilds I’ve been to so far, this is the smallest…’

For some reason, the Asian branch of Big Number, one of the world’s three largest guilds, was several times more simple than the large Korean guilds.

What does the size of the building matter?

Jihoon soon puts his body on the revolving door at the entrance.

“…”

Blond hair and blue eyes greet you as soon as you enter. Jihoon says nothing and gives an awkward handshake towards the white woman.

I couldn’t hide my embarrassment at the foreigner I met for the first time after returning to the modern world.

No, I probably only had a few experiences meeting foreigners before I went to Moorim.

The white woman who greeted Jihoon was very tall, with large breasts, pelvis, and long, straight legs that stood out.

The dress she was wearing was made of a tight material that stuck to her entire body, revealing her body, and even the chest and thighs were slightly open, creating a very sexy atmosphere.

If a normal man were in front of her, he would have tried to avoid his eyes and looked somewhere else, or would have been mesmerized without noticing the saliva falling from her mouth.

“Hello. Are you Hunter Kang Ji-hoon from the Academy?”

“Huh? You speak Korean well?”

“Yes, I speak Korean well. Don’t worry and speak comfortably.”

“Yes, is that so? But why are you wearing so thin? It’s not cold?”

“Take it easy…I didn’t mean to speak informally…”

“Oh, I’m sorry. I guess I’m worse at Korean…”

Jihoon was far from ordinary.

“My name is Ellie. Frank, the boss of Big Number’s Asia branch, is waiting upstairs.”

“Did you know I was coming?”

In response to Jihoon’s question, Ellie smiled brightly and made eye contact with him.

“Of course. You have shown such unconventional actions, so it would be strange not to know. Our guild’s information power is not that low.”

“…You speak Korean really well. But why is it so empty?”

As Jihoon said, except for Ellie, there wasn’t a single ant to be seen in the lobby inside the building.

Like other large guilds, there was no sight of office workers busy walking around or guild members preparing for battle.

“Ah! There are some circumstances… Would you like to go up and listen to the details?”

Jihoon follows her guidance and gets into the elevator.

27th floor

A large white man already waiting in front of the elevator greets Jihoon, holding out his hand.

“Frank. Beautiful breasts.”

“…Nice to Michu”

As he greets me in broken Korean, Jihoon’s awkward English comes out.

“…”

“…”

The two of them standing awkwardly after exchanging a few words of greeting.

“I will act as the interpreter, so you two can comfortably communicate through me.”

Letting out a sigh of relief, Jihoon follows the guide and enters the representative office.

***

Jihoon and Frank continue their standoff with Ellie in the middle.

Even though Ellie was there who could interpret, no one spoke first and they just stared into each other’s eyes.

A suffocating tension builds, and Frank finally begins to speak slowly.

Eli heard him.

“…isn’t that too aggressive? hmm… Magical power doesn’t seem like much, so you’re asking, “Are you hiding some other power?”…”

Ellie looked troubled and carefully translated Frank’s words to Jihoon.

“There is no need for you to know that. Where are the four cadets from the Korean Academy Class 1 belonging to Big Number?”

“isn’t that too…no…no…isn’t that too aggressive?”

Even after seeing Ellie’s troubled expression, just like before, Jihoon just shrugs.

When Ellie interprets Jihoon’s words and relays them to Frank, his eyebrows furrow and he relays the words to Ellie again.

“I heard that other guilds achieved the results they wanted through force. Do you think that can happen to me too?”

Ellie translates Frank’s words exactly.

Upon hearing this, Jihoon stands up from his seat without hesitation and walks towards the large empty space of the representative office.

Frank and Ellie just stare blankly at his sudden behavior.

Jihoon grins and nods his head as he gestures for me to come here.

Question and answer dance

Without needing to say more, Jihoon’s intention to use his strength was clearly communicated to the two.

When Frank, who had a serious expression on his face, put a lot of strength on his legs and tried to stand up, Jihoon said something insinuatingly.

“Mister, sit down and watch. Did you say Ellie? Stop fooling around and come here. It’s rude to test people arbitrarily”

A moment of surprise spreads across her calm eyes.

Then, before long, her eyes become extremely cold.

Ellie stands up and slowly walks towards Jihoon.

Frank got up after her and spoke a few words of English, so it seemed like he was planning to stop her…

She ignores him and walks nonstop all the way to Jihoon’s face.

Her eyes, colder than ice, are fierce as if they are trying to tear Jihoon into pieces.

“I would have told you not to speak informally…”

“Were you testing me with my permission?”

The area around Ellie freezes.

The floor she stands on, the ceiling, the air surrounding her and Jihoon…

Jeokjeok

Damn it

“You may have a good sense of vision, but you seem to have no tact. If you act recklessly without knowing when to bow down, you could get seriously injured. Big Number is on a different level from the crappy Korean guilds.”

The frozen air around her turned into hundreds of sharp thorns, ready to move towards Jihoon.

“You speak Korean really well… But, if I think you’re a girl, I’ll get scolded… I have a record, so I can’t repeat the same mistake. When you say good things, bring the academy kids”

With Jihoon’s last words, hundreds of Ellie’s ice thorns rain down like crazy.

But not a single thorn could even pass by Jihoon’s shadow.

Jihoon’s movements, which unfolded a wormhole using the high-speed movement skill and jumped into it with a step technique with increased internal energy, were so fast that even the eye could not follow them.

Jihoon developed his high-speed movement skills in his own way.

“Wooow…Wooow…Wooow”

Ellie, who was hit in the stomach by Jihoon who suddenly appeared in front of her, gags with an expression of disbelief.

“Tighten your chest a little… Do you say you’re a hunter and greet the enemy with that outfit? Are you thoughtless or are you looking at me too funny?”

Jihoon gives advice with pitiful eyes to Ellie, whose dress is hanging loose and one of her breasts is sticking out.

“Woo-eup…suck…u…lose…th…ㄷ kkeok“

“What? What are you saying…bring the kids… why are you laughing? Are you a pervert?”

Jihoon goes back to his original sofa and sits down, leaving Ellie sitting down with an expression that doesn’t tell if she’s moaning or laughing.

It was Ji-hoon who realized that he had been tricked.

Eventually, as if the pain had subsided, Ellie adjusted her clothes and came over to sit in front of Jihoon.

“Really…really amazing”

“It’s unpleasant”

“I’m sorry. I had to see with my own eyes what level of skill you were.”

“I don’t know how many times I say it. Bring the kids. Say what you have to say and leave”

“Please don’t feel too offended. Instead, you also saw my breasts, right?”

“Who asked you to show it? There was nothing special”

“You Fucking Sun…No no…Hmmmm why is there an English exclamation…”

“I understand at least fucking…”

“Hmm… Hmm… Anyway!! Taekyoung Hong, Kijun Kang, Seolhyun Yoo, Minjae Jang. Yes, I can’t give it to you now.”

“Big Num Bunji, Big Nam Bungee, will it be closed today?”

“Hoho…Why are you doing this? I’m trying to give you a much better offer than that.”

“I’m not interested. Let’s close the door here.”

Jihoon stands up and picks Baekwol.

Chaeng

As the dazzling sword body of the White Moon shined with a cheerful sound, Ellie spoke a little more hastily.

“As you may have noticed, there are only three of us in this building. Even if you destroy everything, there is no use.”

Jihoon’s expression distorts in displeasure.

“Big Number’s Asia branch is a temporary organization established solely to subdue Shibuya’s ‘Gate that Never Disappears’. Of course, the four members of the academy are also bound by temporary contracts.”

Ellie blurts out unasked questions.

For some reason, Ji-hoon feels an ominous feeling that if he continues to listen, he will get caught up in something useless.

“Then…tell them to come to the academy right away when they return to Korea…”

“Special gate that does not disappear even after removing the boss mob! The hidden boss mob of that gate finally revealed itself recently. Do you know where that intelligent guy has been hiding all this time?”

“No, I didn’t ask. Stop talking. Tell the kids. please! I’m going”

Jihoon turns around and tries to leave, but Ellie’s last words fly to the back of his head.

“It turned out that the demon was hiding in another dimension using a movement skill!”

“What? What did you say just now?”

Jihoon’s eyes become infinitely more serious.

Ellie, who had been pouring out words to him without even asking, was momentarily speechless and had to hold her breath at the sudden change in his momentum.
