After leaving Naoki and Kapur to take care of the matter, Jihoon and his group returned to Korea.

Of course, the chartered plane had been sent back early, so Jihoon, who had filled his magic power with Seolhyun’s skill, opened the portal.

“…Hunter Kang? Why already…?”

“I finished”

“You finished it?”

“Singapore Gate Break. I said I finished it.”

Jang Dae-han, the president of the association, couldn’t help but make a dumbfounded expression when a portal suddenly opened in the middle of the office when he thought it had only been 2 to 3 hours since Ji-hoon and his group arrived in Singapore.

“Uh…so…it must have been about 3 hours since Hunter Kang arrived in Singapore…”

“Huh? Did you know the arrival time?”

“Of course, I calculated that much.”

“But why wasn’t there a ride waiting?”

“Yes?”

moment

A drop of cold sweat quickly rolls down from Association President Jang Dae-han’s forehead.

Oops! Jihoon’s eyes narrow when he sees the expression on the association president’s face.

“The roads were paralyzed and rental car companies couldn’t rent cars, so how did you want to get to the city center?”

“Ah… that’s it… We didn’t receive an official request for support from the Asia Hunter Union, but we made a hasty request to dispatch troops only to Hunter Kang…”

“Because of the president of the association! I had a bit of trouble with my Chinese friends”

“Yes? What is that…please don’t cause unnecessary disputes like that…kehehe…”

The president of the association, who was speaking, looked at Jihoon’s resentful eyes and covered his mouth.

vehicle

Jihoon probably didn’t know how much he was cursing himself for not even thinking about it.

“I’m in a hurry, but I don’t have a car… I asked my Chinese friends to give me a ride, but they were a bit rude, right? I had no choice but to squeeze in a few and rent a bus”

Kugoong

It’s done

The head of the association’s mind goes blank.

The person who can’t think of anything and just starts thinking ‘fucked’

How many buses should I rent?

Hunters who were officially dispatched by the Chinese government…

Ha…fuck it

The president of the association could not even guess how to face the approaching fierce storm.

Crying.

Even as my hair turns white and my reason is completely lost,

The president of the association was unloading the car without any hesitation, as if it were a machine.

The president of the association carefully and diligently brews and serves Jihoon’s favorite high-quality black tea.

Sojung and Seolhyeon were telling heroic stories with triumphant expressions, whether they were aware of the association president’s agony or not.

“Ha~ The president of the association should have seen it too, when my magic sword was cutting through the orcs… Hee Sojeong, please tell me something”

“Seolhyun, you must have seen with your own eyes that I dropped Meteor on a group of orcs, right? Actually, the hidden hero was me!”

The two were showing off their first real battle so brightly, but the association president’s ears could not hear a word they said.

“… Hunter Kang… Ho… I guess there were no deaths among the Chinese hunters?”

“Yes? I don’t know that, right?”

dump

The president of the association collapses on the spot, like a tragic heroine.

“Big…”

“Fuuhu”

At the moment when it wasn’t enough to worry about the collapsing president of the association, Sojung and Seolhyun couldn’t hold back their laughter.

That’s right, a middle-aged man…a situation where an authoritative man with a fairly high status has such a slender posture.

Because it wasn’t the type that was easy to see…

Sojung, who was barely able to contain her laughter, covers her mouth and warmly comforts the president of the association.

“Don’t worry, Association President. What Jihoon Kang is saying is that the Chinese hunters may have died fighting the orcs. No one died from being hit by this person. We saw it.”

Phew

At Sojeong’s kind explanation, the association president’s eyes are slightly filled with gratitude.

“Fuuhu…”

“Large…”

That scene was also very funny.

“That’s good…It was an urgent situation, so we can just chalk it up to a problem caused by a communication error…”

The president of the association took a deep breath and straightened his posture again.

“Subject…Thank you so much for your hard work. There will probably be an article coming out soon… The boss mob is Hunter Kang…?”

“Well, that’s right, what”

“As expected…thank you. thank you. Now, with this incident, Korea will also gain the strength to speak out loudly in the global hunter community. You won’t be ignored anymore.”

When the president of the association clenched his fists and spoke movingly, Jihoon responded with a slight glance.

“But…there probably won’t be as dynamic a change as the president of the association thinks…”

“Yes? What is that…?”

“Ah… I went into the gate right after I arrived and caught the boss mob, so all the orcs that were outside came back in through the gate… So I caught them all, but it was so quick and it was all done inside the gate… .”

Jihoon’s analysis was accurate.

Even the war reporters who were hiding in various places taking pictures couldn’t even dare to enter the inside of the gate…

The only witnesses to all the important moments were Naoki and Kapur.

“But don’t worry too much. I gifted an item to the Japanese female hunter and the Indian man, so why not tell them about it somewhere?”

Phew

The president of the association sighed.

It was clear that the gatebreak situation was resolved thanks to Jihoon’s performance.

However, on the surface,

Korea is a country that provided insincere support by sending only three young hunters to Singapore.

Meanwhile, there was a high probability that he would be seen as a problem that even caused trouble with the Chinese military.

“I… was so impatient-”

“People’s lives depend on it. It was something much more important than the public’s evaluation.”

Jihoon’s serious expression

The righteous remarks that are unlikely to come out of his mouth pierce the heart of the association president.

saving people

It was like that.

This gatebreak dispatch of troops was a sacred act that saved a country and its innocent citizens.

It was never something to look at only from a political perspective.

Jihoon,

He always seemed to act recklessly and do whatever he wanted.

He was a more just and ideal person than I thought.

Even in martial arts, he was the one who dealt with hundreds of thousands of demon armies without expecting any compensation.

The association president’s eyes sparkle as he discovers a side of Jihoon that he didn’t know about.

“That’s right…you saved the lives of so many people, thank you for your hard work.”

“Well, after saying goodbye, we will return to the academy. Oh, and this is one of the items dropped by the boss mob orc priest. Please find out the effect and value.”

Tuk

The ring that Jihoon casually put down continued to emit a surprisingly mysterious green light.

“This…this…”

“They also dropped a cane and a necklace, which they gave to a Japanese female hunter and an Indian man. I feel like those people also went through a hard time”

The president of the association spoke while carefully holding the ring.

“An Orc priest who even uses skills, there must be something special about it since it was dropped by a guy like that. Our association will definitely analyze it and let you know.”

Jihoon and his group open the portal again and enter the association president’s office.

“Dispatch of troops? What kind of troops are dispatched?”

“Don’t you even watch the news? They said they sent troops to Gate Break in Singapore as a representative of Korea”

“What? What kind of Korean representative are they?”

“I received a direct request from the president of the Hunter Management Association and flew over immediately”

“What is that…look”

Academy cadets scurrying around

In the news that can be viewed on a smartphone, the faces of Seolhyun wielding a magic sword and Sojeong showing off her skills are prominently featured.

Two people with serious expressions. The sight of him sweating was very beautiful.

In front and next to them, ugly orcs can also be seen.

It was a photo that captured the situation quite dynamically.

Of course, Jihoon’s appearance or name could not be found in those photos and news.

So even more

People couldn’t help but look on in puzzlement.

These two women, who have now become heroes for deployment to the military, keep clinging to that indifferent guy.

“Jihoon~ I told you to stop eating hot dogs”

“Oh, who cares!”

“Seolhyun is right, Kang Jihoon! You need to eat less hot dogs! It’s not a child”

“Ha…let’s leave this behind and have lunch alone, please!”

Jihoon was working hard to separate the two women, not caring about the gazes of the other cadets.

tururururu

tururururu

A clunky ringtone rings from the phone in Jihoon’s pocket.

“President of the Association? What’s going on again? Why are you calling me so often?”

Jihoon’s irritated response

-Um…Hunter Kang…well…the Chinese government is claiming ownership of the orc priest’s ring…

The association president’s voice creeps in

“That ring I gave you? Are these crazy?”

Jihoon’s voice becomes more and more annoyed.
