Exactly one week after the audition.

The day after the results were announced, I ordered Devil Hunters to convene.

'There is a wide assortment in the group.'

I looked at Krasla and the six people gathered in front of the guild house early in the morning and nodded.

Four of them were new. They were new hires who passed the recruitment.

There was a reason I gathered them so quickly after the successful candidates were announced. It was possible due to the work I did in advance.

All four of the Awakened were on the verge of failing until I gave them high scores It was natural for them to follow me into Devil Hunters. Although it was only temporary.

This wasn't a bad thing for them either.

"Captain-nim. Yoo Eun-hye and Lee Ji-hye...ah, no, what should I call you?"

One of the four temporary members said. He was Kim Chun-won.

A bard with a title regarding cursing.

Now he was in his mid-twenties but his mouth couldn't stop cursing.

"Come."

But I didn't answer and shook my head.

Along with Yoo Eun-hye and Lee Ji-hye, I had the required tournament criteria of 8 people.

I would win the championship with an assortment of people.

Furthermore, the tournament had a significant scale according to Kim Yong-woo. It was the introduction of the first ever rankings and each Awakened had a chance to earn some merits.

If so, I needed to be on top. It would be easier to obtain good Awakened if I was known as the strongest in South Korea.

Victory was quite important but I couldn't reveal everything. There needed to be an emphasis on human capabilities. I needed to obtain the title of the strongest but I couldn't move in a manner impossible for humans.

"Captain-nim!"

As expected, it took less than 3 minutes for two women to talk to him.

Yoo Eun-hye and Lee Ji-hye.

At the same time, the four new member swallowed their saliva. Yoo Eun-hye had a youthful cuteness while Lee Ji-hye was an intellectual beauty.

It was no wonder why the men gazed at the rare beauties.

Yoo Eun-hye ran over and lightly hugged me with tears in her eyes.

Jjirak! Jjirak!

I could feel electric currents. Yoo Eun-hye's passive was triggered.

Now it didn't even tickle me. I had the Lightning God Technique. Although Lightning God was sleeping, the power was still dwelling inside my body.

Yoo Eun-hye's passive output wasn't higher than the power in my blood.

"I knew you were alive!"

Yoo Eun-hye wiped her eyes on my suit.

I had gone back and forth to the dungeon with Yoo Eun-hye many times. Maybe it was because I wasn't affected by her passive but she carelessly revealed her emotions.

"Welcome back."

Lee Ji-hye also made a welcome expression. It seemed like she hadn't slept as her makeup hid dark circles.

"How have you been doing?"

"Well."

"First let's move to a different place."
