The team of hunters were divided by their levels. The department had groups of four hunters perfectly equipped for the job. All of them who helped on the job were going to get a cut of the profits made from the monster they’ve hunted.
It was a team with a total of 70 hunters. They were an unstoppable elite.
Having a level nine hunter on their team made them even more powerful.
Thanks to him they had no problem capturing any monster.
The amount of their monthly payment was basically all dependent on him. But, only 20 of them were picked for each mission. So, not everyone was so successful each time.
Some of them not being able to make it through the end of the mission was a common thing but they were in a contract so they couldn’t deny any missions.
Today was another day for the team of hunters to gather. They all took a moment to talk with each other.
“Choi Park, It’s been awhile.”
“Hasn’t it, Jeong Park! This is a group of the most talented hunters in the country. It’s a miracle that we were able to recruit such talents.”
“Haha. I know, I’m very lucky. There hasn’t been a raid that they weren’t able to completely.”
“Of course. The monster situation in the country is very out of control. It’s very concerning. Thank goodness we have the hunters.”
“I agree. I wish them good luck on the raids to come.”
“Thank you.”
“No problem. See you later.”
After their talk Jeong Park went into the hall with the team of hunters.
“How are we supposed to take care of all of this.”
He said with a concerned tone in his voice.
“Hmm… I know someone, he’s a very smart person with a doctor’s degree…”
“Never mind that. The clan recruitment process can not be known. Our university’s talented people are resting…”
“That’s right. However, we need to attract more younger scholars into our ream.”
“I understand.”
He replied. As his voice grew louder everyone around felt a bit anxious. Jeong Park and Choi Park were both great monster researchers in Korea. It seemed like they were always trying to one up each other.
And…
Deudak Deudak…
As they were talking a lady walked into the room interrupting their conversation.
She was in her early thirties and had a cold look on her face. She was wearing a black office suit and black heels to match.
She politely greeted everyone in the room before speaking.
“Hello? Jeong Park, Choi Park, Lee Seomin said that group J laboratory belongs to him.”
Choi and Jeong greeted her and nodded their heads.
They knew the lady very well. She was a very well-known person in the J group monster lab.
However, she didn’t work there much for awhile now and they haven’t been seeing each other very often since then.
The group of hunters in the room were intimidated by her sharp gaze.
“Jeong, have you met with Hwang Philyeoung? I heard that he was here earlier but you two didn’t meet.”
She said asked.
“Um, I don’t know who that is…”
He said in replied with a shaky voice.
“Really? That’s strange. Hwang used to join in on meetings with you two all the time. You don’t remember? All you even went to college together.”
She said bringing up memories of them and Hwang.
“Well, I guess things are just different now. He was a close friend to us.”
“Yes, he was also an expert with the monsters at the gate to China.”
“Really? Haha. I remember in that college as well. There were a lot of students so I couldn’t pack properly. But things were still great…”
The lady said in reply.
“Okay, let’s stop going back and forth with this.”
Choi said but Jeong’s voice then began to grow louder.
“She’s stuck in a dream to think that we would still be friends!”
“Let’s drop this topic now!”
“What?!”
She said raising her voice.
Things then started to become even more awkward for everyone in the room. Jeong then quietly said,
“What will you think about this place after today?”
“Haha, that’s something for only me to know.”
“Hm. Isn’t there something to believe in every corner? The truth could always be shattered. Did Hwang ever mention that to you? How cruel is that…”
“Wow, your so confident in yourself aren’t you. Ah, maybe your in my corner with my beliefs.”
She said in reply.
Her gaze on them was like a tiger preying on a rabbit.
Everyone in the room was silent for a moment.
“Well…”
The clan team’s leader Gwanjae was a powerful hunter who had been on their side for a long time. She was also a powerful hunter and other hunters were intimidated by her. She was even powerful enough to compete against Gwanjae’s guards.
Soon she decided to team up with Lee Seomin.
Jeong and Choi still couldn’t believe it.
Rumi who was also in the room with them then finally spoke.
“Didn’t they tell you not to come?”
Rumi said speaking for the first time.
“My contract with J group isn’t even over yet, so it’s true that I shouldn’t be here but what can you do about it?”
“I’m sure Philyeoung is aware of how difficult it is to deal with you.”
“Who isn’t aware of that… He doesn’t seem to care much about that anyway.”
“Shouldn’t you get going by now, aren’t you busy tomorrow?”
Rumi then turned around and saw Lee Seomin. And…
Jeong’s face turned pale in fright when he noticed he was there.
“Indeed, there is a corner of truth.”
He said agreeing with the lady.
He was a level 9 hunter researching monsters. They were expensive monsters. The higher the level of the monster the more expensive they were worth.
Obviously his skills were quite advanced and gotten even better over the years. All the monsters he researched were worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. However it was a difficult job. Even if the monster was made of organic matter it would decay and if that happened it wasn’t worth anything. Therefore, he had to finish as much research as he could before it could decay.
Is there much difference in a 6th tier monster than a 7th tier monster? WHat about an 8th tier monster?
Would a level nine monster only be capable of defeating a level 9 hunter like Jaehwang?…
“Hm. there is a reason to get out of control here.”
He lowered his head but not in an apologetic way.
There was no way he could ever let go of his self pride.
He did seem to be a little angry when he looked at Jeong and Choi.
‘I guess that if I wasn’t here then I think that I wouldn’t have anywhere else to be!’
He vowed to himself.
Although would rather step back from the humiliation, he could cry tears of blood next time…
The true reason that he came back was to criticize them.
“We all got along in our college years but… that trash is in the past now.”
That simple word was the mistake that caused the problem.
“Jaehwang and I both dropped out of high school and you have the nerve to call that time trash?!”
Jeong was then completely covered by a tall shadow from behind him.
