Recruiting Attack Squad (2)
News that would once again stir up the Holder’s world was delivered.
The hero of the academy, Korea’s greatest prospect.
The youngest Holder closest to S-rank, Do Jae-hyun.
He, who had astonished those around him with his every move, this ti showed his first step as a professional Holder.
– Do Jae-hyun recruits temporary attack squad to tackle undiscovered dungeon!
– Recruitnt guidelines posted on association hopage. Announced officially…
– Korea Holder Association, “The dungeon in question is under exploration rights protection.”
Temporary attack squad recruitnt.
In the Korean Holder world where most move in clan units, it’s the largest temporary group where unaffiliated Holders can gather.
The main case is when the association recruits for a disaster monster appearance, and sotis it’s recruited when the scale and difficulty of an undiscovered dungeon is large.
And in the latter case…
Only Holders with high fa and rank conduct it.
More accurately, the recruitnt only works if they do it.
Because there’s no need to join an attack squad led by a low-rank Holder, and if an unknown Holder leads it, credibility drops rapidly.
So Holders didn’t even consider tackling dungeons of that scale to begin with, but even if they did, they rarely dared to recruit a temporary attack squad.
– First among academy students! Do Jae-hyun’s temporary attack squad.
– Do Jae-hyun, qualified, lacks nothing as attack squad leader.
– Holders already moving… A-rank Holder Lim Hyun, “I’m interested”
In the midst of this.
Do Jae-hyun, still a student, suddenly started recruiting an attack squad.
It was naturally the first among academy students, and also the first at such a young age.
Youngest attack squad leader.
It was a mont when yet another nickna was attached to him, who already had many descriptors.
At this unprecedented news and announcent, the Holder world and various communities were thrown into an uproar.
No matter which site one visited…
Only talk of Do Jae-hyun swirled around.
– Is he really making an attack squad? Not a prank flyer?
└ Official from the association
└ Wow he’s really going for it damn the risk will be crazy
– Is it you again? GOAT
└ I worship you..
– 21 years old and A-rank Holder, founding attack squad lmao life is fking
└ Do Jae-hyun attack squad leader form is insane
└ At this level I don’t even feel inferior lmao just envious
└ What matters is unfailing talent
– But who would apply for a newbie attack squad like that;;
└ I’m going to apply? Apparently the success bonus is highest ever
└ You believe that? What money does Do Jae-hyun have to give for that, lol
└ Then don’t lol who’s forcing you to take up arms?
└ Idiot lol blocked
– Can C-rank Holders apply too??
└ B-rank and above only
└ Ah I just want to see Jae-hyun’s face once..
From communities where young Holder generations gathered in large numbers, to…
– Holder Do Jae-hyun has remarkable drive. I only saw him as young.
└ It’s not for nothing that he beca a top Holder at that age.
– Any mbers planning to apply this ti?
└ I’ll apply as a B-rank warrior.
└ I’ll go too. Any runes you had in mind?
└ Of course Flowing Sword Arts. Applying to see Flowing Sword Activation once.
– If I pass the attack squad can I see the real Dragon Balls?? Just seeing them once would leave no regrets..
└ Huh. You missed them during the Villain Subjugation? It was amazing.
└ I had an important dungeon raid at the ti…
– I’m curious about the difficulty level of this undiscovered dungeon. If it’s around Deep Green adow’s level, it seems worth applying for.
└ I heard it’s far more difficult than Deep Green adow.
The research society and related sites where veteran Holders mainly communicated focused all attention on Do Jae-hyun’s bold challenge.
It was a fervor close to a storm, like when Song Hyun-ah revealed the acquisition thod for the [Sword] rune, and when Yoo Eun-seol revealed information about the …
“Camilla, what will you do?”
The woman with long, flowing red hair, Angela Gremville, asked the blonde beauty sitting next to her.
Her na is Camilla Flores.
A Holder from the California Academy who had co to Korea as an exchange student.
She was also a classmate of Angela, who belonged to the sa academy.
The two were currently discussing ‘Do Jae-hyun’s founding of a temporary attack squad’ that had beco a hot topic.
It was stated that there would be no distinction by nationality for participating in this attack squad.
In other words, the two exchange students could also apply.
“Well…”
Camilla turned her gaze away with an ambiguous smile, evading a clear answer.
But in fact, her decision was already made.
Founding an attack squad to tackle an undiscovered dungeon.
The minimum rank was B, recruiting a large-scale party of at least 20 mbers.
The participation and success bonuses were the highest ever.
This was an opportunity hard to co by even in Arica.
It would be strange for her to hesitate in applying.
Moreover, Camilla was still a student Holder.
The tendency to not recruit student party mbers was the sa in Korea and Arica, so this attack squad was an even more precious opportunity for her.
But there was one more decisive factor that encouraged her.
– Camilla…! If you have ti, want to do this together? The attack squad leader is my friend, so we just need to apply for a free pass. Rember? The guy we sparred with back then.
The guy she t first after coming to Korea, and beca closest friends with.
Although she had lost to that friend, and he had also beaten Camilla once…
He was a Holder who didn’t lose confidence with an unyielding attitude.
A Holder who shone much brighter and cooler than other Holders full of vanity.
And that guy had suggested she join this attack squad.
While speaking broken English.
“-Heh.”
Recalling Park Jin-woo’s appearance, Camilla let out a laugh.
A guy suggesting a dungeon raid as a date.
What a terrible man.
But she didn’t dislike it.
She was drawn to his earnestness that contrasted with his poor English.
“Yes. I’m going to apply.”
The reason Camilla readily planned to join the attack squad was for that reason.
“Angela, you’ll do it too, right?”
“If Camilla’s going, I’m going too.”
To Camilla’s question, Angela readily nodded.
Though they had only recently beco classmates, Angela was soone whose disposition matched quite well in situations like this.

Hanam, Gyeonggi Province.
An abandoned underground space in a remote area.
Hwang Seong-yeon was drinking beer from a large mug.
Around him were already eight empty bottles.
It showed how fanatically he loved beer.
Glug glug glug –
Gulp gulp –
In the quiet underground space, only the sounds of pouring alcohol and swallowing could be heard…
The owner Hwang Seong-yeon’s expression remained unchanged.
It seed like he was drinking chanically out of habit rather than with any particular purpose.
And then.
Creak –
With the sound of the door opening.
The quiet drinking finally ca to an end.
“You ca.”
“I’m late. I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay. The waiting ti was fun in its own way.”
The man who belatedly arrived at the appointed place took out a few docunts from his pocket.
Inside them was a very familiar na that appeared frequently.
Hwang Seong-yeon’s eyes lit up slightly.
“After Holder Do Jae-hyun requested protection of the raid rights from the association, he recruited a temporary raid party. The dungeon they’re attempting to raid matches our target dungeon in Ludenark, as expected.”
“Do Jae-hyun again?”
“…Yes.”
“Really an interesting story.”
Hwang Seong-yeon’s expression was tinged with a slight interest.
It was sothing he was going to do anyway, but with his own interests added, his imrsion doubled.
He drank the remaining beer in his mug and said, “It’s really interesting. How does he always find out and co looking for like this?”
“According to the investigation, it’s just a coincidence.”
“But that coincidence overlaps too much. As if… he knows sothing.”
Interesting.
To Hwang Seong-yeon, Do Jae-hyun was always an interesting subject.
His movents, his skills.
Everything served as a stimulant heightening Hwang Seong-yeon’s pleasure.
Thud –
Hwang Seong-yeon slamd the empty mug down on the table and said, “So, what’s your plan?”
Your plan.
The ones called Ludenark.
According to the robed man’s expression, they were the ‘defectors’.
In this plan, they were Hwang Seong-yeon’s collaborators.
“First, I will move together with Hwang Seong-yeon. For non-combat situations requiring magical processing or detailed operation of the plan, you can leave it entirely to . Think of as a sort of staff officer role.”
“And in combat situations?”
“Ludenark’s magic will never be a hindrance.”
Hwang Seong-yeon nodded at those words.
Their magic skills had already been verified to a certain extent.
These people who didn’t even know the Korean consonants when they first ca from another world could now speak such natural Korean with improved translation magic…
Other ordinary magic was needless to ntion.
“Where’s the other defector? I heard two were assigned.”
“He’ll participate directly in the raid party. He’ll act as a bridge on the inside and attempt to link up with us.”
Hwang Seong-yeon frowned slightly.
“If his background is vague, he’ll be cut imdiately.”
After the elimination of Villains, the dostic Holder circle had beco very sensitive to spies.
It would be almost impossible to infiltrate as easily as before if one’s identity couldn’t be clearly proven.
But the defector assisting Hwang Seong-yeon spoke with confidence, as if telling him not to worry.
“It’ll be fine. He’s not even trying to enter as a Korean Holder, and he’s co up with an easy way to get in.”
If all that proceeded successfully…
Then the plan would have no issues.
Hwang Seong-yeon nodded at the defector’s words, but silently clicked his tongue.
‘Idiots. They still don’t know about Do Jae-hyun.’
The 21-year-old promising Holder from the Academy.
On the surface, he seed like the perfect easy mark…
But in reality, he wasn’t such a simple opponent.
Recalling how flustered Hwang Seong-yeon had been from directly and indirectly dealing with him, it was clear this was a Holder who couldn’t be taken lightly.
The robed man.
He seed so enraged by Do Jae-hyun’s interference, yet still underestimated him.
‘As long as it’s fun, it doesn’t matter.’
But Hwang Seong-yeon didn’t care much.
His goal was simple no matter where he went.
A space and opportunity to kill freely.
And an opponent he could fight entertainingly.
Ludenark’s plan happened to be the most rational way to achieve that.
So as long as he could fight and enjoy himself against Do Jae-hyun to his heart’s content, Hwang Seong-yeon didn’t really care what happened to Ludenark.
