Dungeon Hunter (던전사냥꾼)

Chapter 9: Demon World Auction ( 1st Year )

I left the dungeon and headed straight for the guild. I had been away for a week so Kim Yong-woo was glad to see me.

"Master-nim. Isn't it too difficult to get in touch with you?"

I was standing blankly in the Guild Master's office.

"I go where I want and when I want. If you want to support my freedom then I have no obligation to report to you."

Kim Yong-woo licked his lips.

"...Yes, that's true. You come and go like the wind. Master-nim has the power to break any walls in the city."

The level of the Awakened was slowly rising but Kim Yong-woo had seen a scene that couldn't be imitated. A person who overwhelmingly crushed an advanced creature.

If he wanted something then he would get it. Kim Yong-woo was sure that his judgement was correct. There was already a huge positive impact on his guild.

Therefore, he had to act carefully.

Kim Yong-woo didn't know my true heart. Kim Yong-woo just carried himself excellently. This was what allowed him such opportunities.

I said with a smile.

"I know what you are worried about. But don't worry. If you don't pierce my back then I will continue acting as a Heaven's Will Guild member. On the surface."

"Haha...of course. And Master-nim, please don't say something so scary like you did last time. I shiver every time I hear it."

Kim Yong-woo stroked the goose bumps that appeared on his wrist

There was no lie.

Kim Yong-woo's attitude was consistent with existences stronger than him. But I could feel assured since there were few with such strong presences among the demons.

"Did anything happen while I was away?"

Kim Yong-woo nodded at my question.

"There was. There are rumours that a large number of foreign Awakened who entered the dungeon didn't come back alive, the 4 guilds are planning raids, the National Assembly has passed a legislation regarding the Awakened...what do you want to know?"

"I have no questions."

1,000 foreign Awakened had knocked on the door of the dungeon. No matter how cautious he was, there was bound to be rumours.

Furthermore, I had wiped 500 of them out myself. I didn't know the other parties. But if I didn't open my mouth, the secret would be buried forever.

Kim Yong-woo said like it wasn't a big deal.

"I knew that."

"Take this."

I took out a folded sheet of paper. Kim Yong-woo unfolded the paper and frowned as he looked at it.

"Is this a picture of a poo?"

"You saw it well."

"Ha. It really is poo. Surely this isn't a work of art? If people really line up for art like this...I don't understand that field.

"It is not a piece of art."

It wasn't a piece of art but something I drew!

Admiration crossed Kim Yong-woo's face. He had wandered if his Master had different taste.

Kim Yong-woo asked him.

"Then what is it?"

"A safe zone where creatures can't enter. Isn't it fascinating?"
