In an alternate universe of the world of Solo Leveling. The Hunters Guild and White Tiger guild are performing a joint raid on an 'A' rank gate to build a friendlier relationship. The raid team enters the dungeon to discover it to be a red gate trap...
*Author's Note: At least I think that's the SFX. Forgive me if it isn't.
".... When are you going to stop staring at the wall, Baek Yoon-Ho?" (Choi)
"Hey Choi..." (Baek)
"What?" (Choi)
"Do you think there will be more gates like this one?" (Baek)
"It's possible... I mean, before, we figured everything that's from a gate is a monster that needs to be killed. But now I'm not sure." (Choi)
Walking SFX: *Thud Thud Thud*
"Something else we should be wondering is what we'll profit with from this. We've seen the capabilities of Lunarian technology, but we don't know how to make them." (Cha)
"Ah, it's you, Hunter Cha. Did anything happen with the Gems?" (Baek)
"No. I figured I should leave them to catch up with each other." (Cha)
"I see." (Baek)
"What you said is true. It would be for the best if we could bring with us solid proof of the events that transpired in this gate." (Choi)
Lunarian Walking Sound SFX: *Pish Pish*
"We can give you anything from our treasury, if you want to bring something from our world back to yours." (???)
A peculiar Lunarian spoke out to the hunters. He has a broad torso, and sported a round physique larger than that of normal Lunarians.
"No, no, I feel that that would be abusing your hospitality." (Baek)
"I agree. You Lunarians have already prepared such a festival for us. We don't dare to overstep on your kindness." (Choi)
Staring SFX: Jiiiiii
"Have we perhaps met before? Your mana seems familiar" (Cha)
"Ah! How rude of me. I am Cicada. You may not remember me, Miss Cha, but I was the Lunarian you fought that wielded a Vajra." (??? -> Cicada)

"You're the one I sliced in half, right?" (Cha)
"Indeed, Ms. Cha. I must commend you for your excellent skills with the sword." (Cicada)
"Thank you. You and your warriors were also very skilled. Our 'A' rank hunters struggled to defeat them." (Cha)
"It is a blessing that our warriors still held most of their skills, even after 800 years." Cicada muttered to himself.
'Yeah... To retain your skills for that long is a miracle.' (Baek, Cha, & Choi)
