*Los Angeles*

"I'm pretty sure you were wondering why I even came to America in the first place right? Well it looks like the answer is about to reveal itself in just a bit." Sung Jin Woo says as red lightning starts to crackle all around us. As I clench the both of my fists in preparation for a fight he puts his hand on my shoulder to try and calm me down. "Don't tense yourself up too much before the fight even starts, our ride is going to be here shortly."

Immediately after he says that something that looks like some sort of red portal opens up in front of him and I as a wave of absolute dread and horror washes across my body. Just what the hell is this?

 Just what the hell is this?

"This, is a red gate." He says as he takes a deep breath in and out. "Just from the magical pressure that I feel from this thing it has to be an S-Rank dungeon. Have you been seeing these things pop up here in America?"

"No, no I haven't. We haven't heard about anything like this popping up across the country. Is this type of thing a normal occurrence in Korea?" I ask him as he puts his hands in his pockets. He nods his head yes to me as he motions me over towards the portal.

"I mean, we have gates that open up all over the place but we typically have organized guilds that take care of things like this. They're not normally like this, in fact this particular kind of gate is let's say on the more rare and dangerous side, if you're caught in one of these then odds are you aren't coming out alive." He says as I face palm myself. Just what the hell have I gotten myself into? "But don't worry, we should be fine. With the both of us working together we should clear this gate in about a month or so."

A month? A month?! After hearing that I start to punch myself in the head over and over again as Sung Jin Woo starts to laugh at me.

"You said that there are guilds that normally take care of this kind of stuff right? Aren't there any guilds here that could do it? Do we really have to do this by ourselves?" I ask him as he grabs my by my collar and starts to drag me on the ground alongside him as we both start to get closer to the gate.

"Nah, I typically like to take care of these things on my own, all of the monsters shouldn't be too much of a hassle for us. The things in here should mainly be around B to A-Rank but with you here I'm pretty sure that we're going to be fine, just as long as the dungeon boss isn't too broken we can be done with this in a jiffy." He says as I take a deep breath in and out. The report that Jo gave me did say that he was the Worlds Strongest Hunter, so whatever the hell it is that they do hunt as long as I follow behind him I should be fine right?

As I'm pulled into the dungeon alongside him I hold my breath as I watch as the outside world closes shut in front of me. For a brief second everything around us is all white, but right as my eyes adjust to the brightness the sound of an intense and ominous wind blowing fills my ears as Sung Jin Woo releases his grip from off of my collar and as I land on the ground.
