I had a dream.

Once upon a time,

When I was young, I can’t even remember anymore,

Memories that are insignificant and resemble someone else.

(In the future, when ■■ grows up healthy and becomes an adult… become a great hunter that everyone looks up to.)

​

​

Someone’s words.

A person who pushed someone who had neither talent nor will to become a hunter.

​

​

(Become a hunter who willingly extends your hand to those in need… Live with the love of many people as much as this ugly mother failed to love you.)

It was a futile dream, and I was stubborn enough to receive ridicule from others.

Why am I a hunter?

How many jobs are there to help people?

(Be a great hunter.)

(Be a great hunter.)

(A great hunter…)

But it’s like a witch’s curse,

This is the only warmth I received from my family.

‘Someone’ without talent or will dreamed of becoming a hunter.

‘So… what makes a good hunter?’

I had a dream.

Now I can’t do anything,

It was a nightmare filled with resentment.

… … .

… … .

Mulberry bread~ Mulberry bread~ Baaang~

“Umm… Ah, it’s a dog dream again.”

As usual, Eunha woke up to the sound of an insignificant alarm.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead and turned over.

I had a dream.

A dream that is so difficult to explain that I don’t even dare to say it out loud.

Smiling lazily as the summer sunlight streams in through the window, I lift the cotton blanket that covers my shoulders to the side.

The weather is getting warmer.

Therefore, to her, who always used cotton blankets that could only be used in winter, the summer air that hit her in the morning did not feel pleasant.

‘But that doesn’t mean I don’t want to cover myself with a thin blanket… I made money with potions this time, so I’ll sleep with the air conditioner on during the summer.’

It feels good to fall asleep covered in a warm cotton blanket in the cool breeze of the air conditioner.

Eunha woke up tiredly, wiping her sweaty chest.

Booth…

A cell phone left on the bedside table.

The date displayed on the screen, August 1st, greeted the galaxy.

It’s finally August…

It was a cool, stretching morning, realizing that the tiring July had passed.

… … .

I’ve been thinking about this lately.

Every day is so long.

Time went by smoothly when I was in a peaceful cafe, but when I was hanging out with strange people, it stretched like a rubber band and presented a feeling of hardship.

I can’t believe that it’s only been a month since I became a D-class hunter.

Eunha looked back one by one on everything she experienced in July.

Promotion test, Blood Donation House, [Cheorwon Crack Center], General Manager Go Young-in, Blue Dragon Guild, etc…

The days were so intense that I wondered if this really happened in just one month.

Since picking up [The Black Book], my daily life has not gone a single day without a good day.

Eunha smoothed the corners of her mouth and had a positive attitude.

Okay. Rather good.

Doesn’t that mean that you lived that hard?

Rather than being a person who spends time, I want to be a person who spends time.

I got out of bed, remembering each and every trace that changed from memory to memory.

Step by step, I step on the floor with my weak legs.

My legs lost feeling after I lent my lower body to the veranda monster. Move slowly, maintain your balance, and stand up as if you were building a tower with cards.

‘good. Now I don’t need a wheelchair.’

A refreshing feeling that signals the beginning of August.

Eunha came out to the living room, humming a familiar nursery rhyme.

Today again, after putting the raw meat that the [animal] next door left on the living room table into the freezer,

I grab a change of clothes and walk to the bathroom.

『Sloppy. My chest is sweaty.』

“Even if you say that, I won’t take a bath. Just taking a shower in the morning is enough.”

“dirty. It’s my body.』

“Yes~ It’s that body. So who wants to wear such a vulgar thing?”

『Yes, it’s your body.』

The 1st of every month, the cafe’s day off.

Eunha, who maturely accepted Eunha’s childish argument in the mirror, started taking a shower.

The cool water hits the soft skin and flows down noisily.

Shoot…

The pouring water stream is transparent.

I absentmindedly step into the water from the shower while smoothing out my scar-free skin.

‘The C-level exam is held once a quarter, so there are still a few months left… Did Nari Kang say she was going to sell ‘that potion’ to the cat manager today? ‘I’m sure he’s shaking like a small octopus, so I’ll go cheer him on.’

The beginning of August, a peaceful holiday.

Just the calendar has changed, but it feels like my mindset has also changed.

After organizing today’s schedule, Eunha continued to shower with a languid smile.

(Be a great hunter.)

Shoot…

A stream of water flowing down.

It resembles raindrops,

thud. thud.

Eunha patted her throbbing temple with all her might and raised the corners of her mouth.

It’s a refreshing morning.

… … .

… … .

“Uh, what should I do…! It feels like I’m dreaming!”

“Are you still not in? I heard that I have delivered a lot of potions to the association.”

“It’s different from that. From today, I will be delivering it directly to the head of the department…”

8 am. The square in front of the Hunter Association headquarters.

A stream of cold water rises from the fountain installed in the center.

The entrance was quiet as the writing for the promotion test had already begun.

There were only a few guardians sitting camped near the association waiting for the test takers.

Eunha looked up at the association headquarters, which was appropriately described as huge, and cheered on Kang Na-ri, a debt collector who had been wandering around the association entrance for 30 minutes.

A deal to sell a potion made from Eunha’s blood to General Manager Go Young-in personally.

Even though August was approaching, Na-ri Kang, dressed in an old sweater and jeans, looked both happy and anxious about the opportunity in front of her.

Her sapphire-blue hair flutters from side to side as she shakes back and forth due to excessive tension.

“Uh, how do you feel? Should I have come wearing a suit?… You don’t look like a strange person, right?”

“I pity you.”

“Then let’s create sympathy and hit the sales price…!”

“I hope you don’t be positive in a strange way.”

Even though she had been working as a cafe employee, she only made coffee in the kitchen, and was it because Eunha took care of most of the customer service?

Or maybe you have an aversion to meeting strangers… especially people in power?

When I look at Kang Nari now, I think of a mole coming out of the dirt.

Eunha patted Kang Na-ri’s back with a slightly troubled smile.

… … .

Kang Na-ri experienced a kidnapping incident once, and has appeared before the association as a witness to the incident several times since then.

The kidnapping was kidnapping, but it was because Ban Harin broke down the front door of the semi-basement house…

It seems that he is indebted to Eunbangul’s house, packing only the bare minimum until he finds a place to move.

The rabbit girl’s home built in a luxury housing complex.

It’s a very spacious house to live in alone, so there won’t be a big problem even if there’s a debtor living there.

Of course, Kang Nari hated it.

Because she was always afraid of bells.

She gave a meaningful look and said that if she had to be indebted to Eunha, she would rather be indebted to Eunha’s house.

However, he came to his senses after hearing Eunbangul’s whisper, packed his luggage, and was quietly taken to the girl’s house.

(There are too many photos at home. I’m going crazy. I want to live at Eunha’s house.)

(If you come, you’ll die. Don’t even think about coming into the apartment.)

( too bad… )

Anyway, judging by the constant groaning, it seems like he’s doing okay.

Eunha patted Kang Na-ri, who was very excited today, and pointed to the association.

“I met the head of the cat department last time. I’m not going to look good anymore, so come back quickly.”

“Well, then… I’d like to hug Eunha ‘sister’ and leave. ”

Immediately after, Kang Nari’s trembling stopped as if she had been waiting for this moment.

At the same time, she puts the icebox containing the ‘potion’ on the floor and spreads her arms.

I always think about this, but my personality is strangely strange.

Should I say it’s spicy?

If you think about it, did you promise to hug Kang Nari at least once a day…

Eunha burst out in laughter and spread her arms.

Ok…

“Hehehe, then I will do my best and make money!”

So, Kang Na-ri, who enjoyed the soft embrace of Eunha, walked towards the association carrying the icebox.

Sparkling eyes like someone dreaming.

Eunha, left alone, sat helplessly at the fountain in the square in front of the association.

‘… … After the kidnapping incident, Na-ri Kang calls me unnie when I’m alone with her.’

Are we now in a relationship where even a single name bothers us?

With that thought, I stretched out my hand toward the fountain.

A stream of water rising high in the sky falls in a curved line. The water droplets that crumble from the galaxy’s fingertips catch the sunlight and sparkle like transparent jewels.

Jewels scattered and pouring into the fountain.

Eunha looked at the fountain with a complicated mind.

A peaceful morning.

The 1st of every month, always the same place.

‘… … Every time I failed the promotion test, I spent time sitting at the fountain like this.’

Euncheon-gu’s soft fist.

Jibakryeong for promotion exam.

Café Latte Sister.

Now, it would be okay to give up the nickname ‘Jibakryeong’.

Eunha sat down by the fountain and smiled languidly.

… thud. thud.

To have a headache.

I tapped my throbbing temple with my palm.

“There’s a pretty hunter there. Is the seat next to you empty by any chance?”

Eunha sat at the fountain and recalled painful memories.

She looked up at a woman in uniform approaching next to her.

A stylishly designed gi and a sword perched on the waist.

Scouter Jeong So-ra of [Changcheon Geomga] smiled and pointed to the seat next to Eunha.

Well, since Jeong So-ra is a guild scout, he must be at the association on the day of the promotion exam.

Eunha, happy to see a face she often sees at the cafe, nodded willingly.

“Hello, Sora Jeong. Did you come to see the test takers?”

“Because it’s my job. What’s going on, Eunha? The C-level exam will be next month, right?”

“I came to watch my friend work.”

Eunha and Jeong So-ra sitting side by side at the fountain.

The two people told each other trivial stories and waited for time to pass.

While Jeong So-ra waits for her practical work to begin, Eun-ha waits for Kang Na-ri to return after completing her transaction.

Jeong So-ra, who had unconsciously been distracted by Eunha’s large breasts pushing up her box tee, suddenly cleared her throat.

“Hmm… Oh, by the way, Eunha. Do you know what? This is a ‘new type of monster’ that appeared in [Cheorwon Crack Market]. It is said to have appeared outside the crack shop a few days ago.”

“Oh my. It’s a big deal.”

“I guess that’s why pesticides for civilian use are selling like hot cakes even though we know they’re useless… Just in case, Eunha, be careful too.”

It was a pointless story.

However, Jeong So-ra’s story naturally crossed over into Hunter and Gyeoljang, attracting Eunha’s interest.

A hunter’s story told by one of the few people around him who is a decent hunter.

Is it because of that? Eunha, who was listening to Jeong So-ra, begins to talk in passing about her plans to explore the [Rift Field] in the near future.

“To become a C-level hunter, you need to have experience exploring the crack field, and I only went there once last month and that was it. So, I’m thinking of going to a good [Gyeolgyeoljang] with my friend next holiday.”

“Oh my, is that so?…… Eunha.”

Jeong So-ra’s recommendation that followed immediately was unexpected.

“If it’s okay with Eunha… can you join me in searching for cracks?”

“With Jeong So-ra? I’m still in D-class, so I won’t go to dangerous places. Is that okay?”

“Of course~. Actually, I have a similar situation. There is a stone head who became a D-class hunter in July, and our guild leader wants me to teach him how to explore the [Rift Field]? Is it really too much?”

Cleaning up the monsters that came down from the border during the rainy season.

And [Changcheon Swordsman] is busy as ever with the ‘new type of monster’.

Therefore, Jeong So-ra gave a desperate look in her eyes, saying that by exploring the [Rift Field] with Eunha, she could be freed from the arduous work of the guild, even if only for a short period of time.

Did I need an excuse to escape?

Exploring the crack field with [Changcheon Geomga].

The personnel consists of Eunha, Ban Harin, scouter Jeong Sora, and a stone-headed D-class hunter.

Surprisingly not bad.

At [Cheorwon Gyeoljang], I was attacked while alone with Ban Harin, so I needed a teammate to go with me for safety.

Acting with the experienced Jeong So-ra will be of great help.

After thinking about it in many ways, Eunha accepted her offer.

“Wow! at las! What I dreamed of came true so easily.”

“We will decide the date of the exploration and let you know.”

“Good! Anytime is ok! You won’t regret it… Our Doldagarido is a good kid with a strange personality.”

In the morning, the water in the fountain chirps noisily.

So, until Eunha Kang Na-ri returns with a happy face after completing her transaction with General Manager Go Young-in,

He has a quick conversation with Jeong So-ra, who is happy to have caught an unexpected opportunity.

… … .

… … .

‘Then I guess I’ll have to get ready to go to the [Crack Ground]… Is it right for me to take the titanium bat I received last time? If you think about it, you’ve never been able to swing at [Cheorwon Cracking Ground]… Why don’t you just take a jigsaw and a flute?’

After congratulating Na-ri Kang on her return with a grin, Eun-ha breaks up with scouter So-ra Jeong, who is on her way to watch the practice test, and returns home.

As she prepared to explore the [Rift Field] on her next holiday, she was worried about what to take with her.

Eunha sits on the sofa with a weak gait and opens the [Black Book] that was left on the living room table.

No new rules.

Maybe it’s because August has just begun, but things are going well today.

‘Mr. Banharin also said that it would be safer to explore with scouter Jeong Sora, so there won’t be any problems… You won’t be following ‘Mouse’ this time, right?’

Little by little, he gets closer to becoming a ‘great hunter’.

It’s not a bad thing.

“It’s dyed yellow, yellow~.”

Eunha hummed her usual nursery rhyme and closed the [Black Book].

thud. thud. thud. thud.

And, at that moment.

A noise from upstairs interrupted her thoughts.

… … .

Thump… Thump. thud.

The sound coming from [Room 1004], the upper floor of [Room 904].

A sound similar to a child running around the living room… or a sound similar to an adult tapping the floor with his or her palm.

“No, I don’t know when I last told the old security guard, but he’s like that again.”

Eunha got up from the sofa and looked up at the ceiling.

Thump…the sound of hitting the floor.

It is a sound that has a constant beat and is repeated in one place, which is hard to say that a child is running around.

thud. thud. thud. thud.

As if ‘something’ was lying face down on the living room floor, looking for something.

A sound closer to exploration than noise.

“… … .”

Eunha slowly backed away to the side with her mouth closed in an inexplicable horror.

Then the pounding upstairs, moving slowly,

It starts to sound from above Eunha’s head.

Thump… Thump. thud.

“… … To the building owner, noise between floors?”

Eunha rubbed the back of her neck with her usual smiling face.

… … .

… … .

A noise coming from upstairs that irritates people.

It seemed as if ‘something’ was lying flat on the floor, pounding on the floor while quietly looking down at Eunha in the house below.

Or the sound of running away from something.

thud. Thump… thud.

Soon, the sound was,

Moving above the galaxy’s head,

I headed toward the unlocked veranda.

… … .

… … Grumble.

I heard a sound from upstairs.

The sound of the veranda window opening.

… … .
