"...Go to North Hamgyeong Province."
Yoo Yeonha spoke as soon as she entered her limousine.
"...North Hamgyeong Province?"
"Yes."
"...."
However, the driver felt uncomfortable.
Less than 10% of North Hamgyeong Province was habitable, and half of that 10% was an intermediate rank danger zone. In that sense, it was surprising that North Hamgyeong Province had a population of 200,000.
"W-Won't it be dangerous?"
It was a place where mercenaries and hunters looking for a quick way to get rich stayed. The driver didn't want to drive to such a dangerous place.
"Don't worry, I sent in a message."
Yoo Yeonha had one-sidedly texted her father and uncle.
To Yoo Jinhyuk, she wrote, [I'm coming to meet you. I told Father too, so don't worry about it.]
To Yoo Jinwoong, she wrote, [I'm going to go meet Uncle.]
Yoo Jinhyuk was afraid of Yoo Jinwoong.
As such, he should come out to greet her.
"Step on the gas."
"Y-Yes."
The driver stepped on the accelerator. The limousine drove forward smoothly.
Looking at the outside scenery, Yoo Yeonha fell into deep thought. She couldn't quite organize her worries with mere words.
Soon, the urban scenery disappeared, and an empty road to North Hamgyeong Province filled her vision.

...Four days passed since then.
Chae Nayun still hasn't woken up. She was still in her hospital bed, sleeping for unknown reasons. Chae Shinhyuk stayed up all night watching over her, and Chae Joochul appeared on TV with a somber expression.
[...Despite everything that happened, Daehyun will fight and march forward! We will not forget our values! Just like how we arrived at our current glory, we will fight back lawlessness and violence!]
Using the tragedy his family suffered and the recent organized attacks by Djinns, Chae Joochul put on a show to glorify the name of Daehyun.
"Hmm..."
The world thus began to turn, but the May sky was still peaceful, clear, and warm.
"Haa...."
Today, I visited Cube's administrative office. It was to submit my dropout form.
Cube's administrative chief glanced at the dropout form and let out a deep sigh.
"You're dropping out after working hard to climb to the top 100? Is there a reason?"
"...."
I silently nodded.
"Because of your special Gift, the Hero Association already prepared a title for you. The sole gun-using Hero, Gunner. If you graduate, you'll be able to live as a celebrity."
A Hero with a life of a celebrity. I held myself back from laughing.
"Plus, several guilds are already eyeing you. Even Essence of the Strait showed interest in you. Do you still want to drop out?"
"Yes."
"...There will be no turning back. Will you not regret it?"
"Yes."
