“Seeueueup… , ha… ! It’s been a while since I smelled the scent of my hometown, hmm!”

Elena walks ahead, intoxicated with the scent of her homeland that she hasn’t seen in a long time.

I follow her and leave Sofia Port.

A unique landscape begins to unfold in earnest.

Meanwhile, a familiar face is waving in this direction.

“Hey, it’s here! Here!”

Beauty and wildness that simultaneously attract the attention of passers-by.

“Elena?”

She was none other than Elena.

Seeing that there was a large bus standing behind it, it seemed like they had been notified of the arrival time in advance and had come to meet us.

As I got closer, Elena wrapped her arms around my neck and pulled me in, as if she had been waiting for me.

“It’s been a while, huh? Did you miss me?”

What was waiting for me at the place I was helplessly taken to was a voluptuous breast.

With my face half buried there, I barely open my mouth.

“Well, it’s nice to meet you, but… , this is a bit… !”

Oh, indeed.

It’s so strong that I can’t escape.

There is a playful look on her face as she looks down at me.

“Hmm~? He pretends to have trouble speaking, but his facial expression is very… , does it look good?”

ah.

I got caught.

Soon, harsh gazes pour in from those around me.

If I stay like this for a few more seconds, I might die.

“Kuhmhmmm… Please leave me alone.”

As I spoke, trying to exclude any happy feelings, Angela finally released me from her embrace.

“Well, this is the end of the prank.”

She points with her thumb at the bus standing on the road behind me.

“Ride first. Uncle Francis is waiting.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

He gestures to the guild members to get on board and gets them on one by one, and gets on last.

Soon the bus departs.

It leaves the center of the capital, which was once a bustling city, and reaches the outskirts.

Eventually, we arrived in front of a hotel built on a quiet street.

“Okay, let’s get off here.”

“This is… ?”

“This is the hotel where you will stay for the time being.”

A gray building that appears to have been built quite a long time ago, but has been well maintained and has an old-fashioned feel.

“It’s not 5-star, but you’ll be able to stay comfortably. We rented the whole place.”

Their wealth is once again surprising.

Even though it’s not a 5-star hotel, it’s hard to imagine renting an entire hotel this large.

Well, it also proves how important this operation is.

“You must have spent a lot of money.”

“I guess so, right? I don’t know the details. Because they weren’t involved. Anyway, let’s go in!”

As you enter the hotel, the waiting doormen come up and take your suitcase.

“First, let’s unpack and rest for a while. I’ll call you soon, so don’t fall asleep.”

“I will.”

I get into the elevator, following the doorman ahead of me.

Ding!

We arrived at the 7th floor.

From the nearest rooms 701 to 707.

Each person is assigned a card key for each room.

The key given to me is number 701.

“Everyone go to your room, pack up your things, and get some rest.”

“Ugh.”

“Okay.”

“See you in a bit.”

Guild members moving to the room given to me.

The person with key number 702 is… , it’s Seoyeon.

I turn my head at just the right moment and my eyes meet his.

“… Over there.”

“… … ?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

Then he goes into his room and leaves.

“… What is it?”

I think he was trying to say something.

I don’t know.

If it’s something important, I’ll always say it first.

* * *

Knock knock!

“Hey, are you in there?”

It had been about an hour since Angela found the room where Kim Do-jin was staying.

Rattling!

When I open the door and go out, she points to the elevator and opens her mouth.

“We have prepared a conference room on the 15th floor. From now on, we will hold a brief meeting there.”

“How many people will attend?”

“Well, everyone involved in the operation. He doesn’t like talking about parts in isolation. Well, what did they say… , there is a Korean proverb like that. It’s better if the paper is held together, right?”

“What… , It’s similar.”

To be precise, it would be better to have a blank piece of paper as well.

In short, if a lot of people come together and come up with various plans, there might be something good among them.

Not a bad way.

At the same time, it is also a method that is difficult for anyone else to attempt.

A person like Francis Mayer would be surrounded by many outstanding people, so he would only have good stories to tell, but if it were someone else, he would have experienced the boat going into the mountains due to the increased number of boatmen.

“Anyway, I’ll be up first, so come up with your guild members.”

“Yes, please go up first.”

When I answered that, she suddenly stretched out her arms and squeezed my buttocks, grinning.

“Cute child.”

“… … .”

It looks like he will have to show his dignity as a man again soon.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

We call all the guild members who were resting for a while and head to the 15th floor.

Ding!

The guild members, including Kim Do-jin, felt that the atmosphere became quite heavy as soon as the door opened.

This was because of the hunters standing closely together in the long hallway.

The mood of these people looking around with sharp eyes, as if wary of an invasion by an external enemy, is weighing heavily on the atmosphere in the hallway.

It slowly started to resonate with me.

The fact is that I didn’t come here to have fun, but to carry out a very dangerous operation.

Kim Do-jin’s words then softly resonate in their ears.

“Everyone, don’t act rashly. If you have something to say, say it clearly and act like an adult.”

It was both advice and warning.

From now on, he must show only his agile side as a real hunter, not as an inexperienced hunter.

The guild members followed behind Kim Do-jin, silently swallowing words that were like gold and silver.

As I opened the two large doors at the end of the hallway and entered, I saw a spacious table and chairs surrounding it.

And the man sitting at the head of the table is the first to come into view.

“Hey, you’re finally here!”

As soon as he saw Kim Do-jin, the man got up from his seat and ran towards him.

As soon as they saw him, the guild members behind them froze.

That was natural.

If you know who the man in front of you is, of course you will.

Shin Yu-jeong, with wide eyes, says his name.

“F, Francis Meyer… .”

Humanity’s greatest hero.

He is standing in front of them.

“Wow, wow… !”

“Isn’t this a dream, Harin?”

“… Yes, surprisingly.”

But their shock didn’t end there.

“Are the young people in the back our friend’s guild members?”

“Yes, these are talented people I carefully selected.”

“Wow, that’s really great! Sooner or later, a bunch of S-class will be born, hahaha!”

Hunter on Hunter.

This is the ideal that everyone who dreams of becoming a hunter hopes to become.

When a candidate for the most influential person in the world is selected, this person is guaranteed to be included.

“Ah, that’s right. Did I tell you? He said he would prepare good drinks. Is there a bar right above here with a killer night view? Have a drink there… .”

Kim Do-jin is having a private conversation with his arm around his shoulder.

It’s so friendly too.

It’s like a friendship that transcends age.

“… What is that guy really?”

It was surprising again.

A person named Kim Do-jin who, no matter how hard you try, only shows his amazing side.

What you’ve shown me so far is amazing, but now you’re friends with Francis Maier.

Does this make any sense?

“Hahaha! Good good. Let’s end the meeting quickly first. Take your seats! Are other people still far away?”

“Everyone is coming.”

“Tell them to come quickly! You have to come quickly so you can finish quickly and rest quickly!”

“Haha, yes.”

Francis leads the conference room with a soft yet powerful charisma.

At just one word from him, people came running, and soon dozens of seats were filled.

After confirming that all the chairs were filled, he stood up and raised his voice.

“First of all, I want to say thank you to everyone!”

He spoke with a grin and immediately bowed.

“Thank you so much for participating in this dangerous operation!”

The ripple effect was surprising.

Who would have known that the person called humanity’s greatest hero would bow down so easily?

I felt it at the same time.

That he is truly a true person and a hero.

After finishing his greeting, he opens his mouth again.

In “… , let me explain for those who haven’t heard the story properly yet.”

He calms his voice once in preparation for the shock that is about to come.

He starts talking with his eyes shining.

“There is an enemy that threatens this world. Not monsters, but people with human bodies and more evil intentions than monsters.”

Pride, lust, jealousy, stinginess, sloth, anger.

And greed.

“The seeds of evil who harbor the root of all evil defined in the Bible. We call them the Seven Deadly Sins, and those who inherit and lead their power the most are called apostles.”

There was no hesitation in his words.

And no one thought his words were lies.

“That is exactly why we have gathered you here. Humanity’s greatest enemy, the apostle of the Seven Deadly Sins. To put an end to one of them.”

That means.

“It means that you will all be on the front lines of the war to protect humanity and the world. Before that, I have one last question. Is there anyone who wants to go back now?”

“… … .”

“… … .”

A heavy silence fell.

This was positive.

Not a single person will leave the ship they boarded to protect humanity.

Satisfied with this, he finished his last words with a grin.

“Then, I will now begin explaining the strategy for targeting the Apostle of the Seven Deadly Sins.”
