.
A notice widely posted in the Holder community to fill the manpower needed for the assault on the 7th District.
Although the recruitnt period was short and the notice was put up urgently, many outstanding Holders and capable clans gathered.
Reading their motivations for applying, most are similar.
Tern, Vampires, Ludenark….
Content about wanting to eliminate the Adapters who have newly erged as enemies of humanity, and to share in that glory.
It was a mont when Kwon Young-hoon’s recruitnt strategy of completely opening up the assault information hit the mark perfectly.
‘…Except for the fact that Holders I never expected applied.’
I looked at the Holders in front of .
Park Ji-hwan, Kim Myeong-hyun, Na Hye-rin.
Nas that anyone active as a Holder in Korea would have heard of.
Na Hye-rin’s application is sothing to welco with open arms.
She was a Holder who handled the rather rare earth attribute among A-grade wizard types (the earth attribute itself is common, but very few high-level Holders have raised this attribute to A-grade level), and was already a proven talent even among independent Holders.
It ends with the fact that Vice Master Yoo Eun-seol personally recomnded her.
For a talent like her, this interview was rely a formality.
The problem is the other two people.
“I can understand Holder Park Ji-hwan being here, but… Master, why are you here?”
I ask, clutching my throbbing head.
Park Ji-hwan seems to have applied for the interview half-jokingly, half-seriously.
He probably planned to participate in this assault as he did in the previous one, and applied like this as a surprise to tease , the interviewer.
But why the Master?
Shouldn’t he be teaching at the Academy right now…?
“I took a vacation.”
And he neatly resolved my question.
“No, can you just take a vacation like that? It’s during the sester.”
“As it happens, a fellow professor had so free ti. When I said it was a family matter, the students understood.”
“Family matter…?”
When I questioned the unexpected topic, Professor Kim Myeong-hyun smiled gently.
“My daughter keeps entering dungeons where her life might be in danger. As a father, I couldn’t just stand by and watch anymore.”
As soon as I heard those words, I imdiately bowed my head.
“I’m sorry, father-in-law!!”
I have no words even if I had ten mouths.
I promised to protect his daughter for life, but in reality, I’m walking hand in hand with her into danger.
I’m a son-in-law deserving of a beating.
“It’s alright. I didn’t bring it up to bla Holder Do Jae-hyun. I was purely stating my motivation for applying.”
Fortunately, Master was rciful.
He forgave with his usual warm smile.
Watching this, Park Ji-hwan asked with a strange expression.
“Holder Do Jae-hyun, why aren’t you asking for my reason for applying?”
“Ugh- Please don’t use that strange polite speech. You’re just trying to tease , aren’t you?”
Park Ji-hwan laughed heartily at my words.
“Haha. Was I caught?”
“Yes. It was very obvious.”
As expected of Park Jin-woo’s father, even the type of pranks he pulled were similar.
“Well, anyway….”
In any case, top-tier talents have joined all at once.
It t the initial goal of the recruitnt notice.
Satisfied, I looked around the interview room and continued speaking.
“All three of you pass. I’ll send you the schedule to the contact information in your applications, so please co at that ti.”
“W-wait a minute!”
Na Hye-rin, who was at the edge, raised her hand with a bewildered face.
“I haven’t even had my interview yet…?”
She looked perplexed that the interview ended without a single question being asked.
I smiled at her.
“Earth attribute magic user, A-grade Holder. 3 years of clan experience, multiple assault team experiences, and countless small party experiences. You’ve also participated in the assault on the top-tier dungeon ‘Deep Blue Prairie’, and your contribution was almost equal to that of Lim Hyun, who was the assault team leader, right?”
“…H-how do you know all that?”
Na Hye-rin’s expression changed to sothing even more bizarre.
It was as if she was looking at a stalker.
…In a way, I guess I am a stalker.
“I can’t reject a Holder with this level of experience. Na Hye-rin, you were already accepted the mont you applied. The interview was just a formality to reconfirm your intention to participate. Once again, welco.”
Because I…
Have been keeping an eye on Na Hye-rin for a long ti.
‘I should make a recruitnt offer after this assault is over.’
The world is wide, and there are many Holders.
And is still struggling with a shortage of clan mbers.
This was literally a notice to recruit rcenaries, and at the sa ti, a ans to attract potential clan mbers.

D-2 until the assault on the 7th District.
There really wasn’t much ti left.
During this short period, all Holder-related institutions in the country were busy moving in their own ways.
“You can trust us with the administrative processing, Holder Do Jae-hyun.”
The Korean Holder Association mainly took on auxiliary tasks.
They mobilized all association personnel to actively assist with ’s assault preparations and rcenary recruitnt, and contacted various dia outlets to systematically disseminate the current situation to the public. (While strictly keeping the secrets that needed to be kept within that.)
The biggest role, in particular, was facing the governnt.
Given that it was such a large-scale assault and Holders’ lives were at stake, they arranged direct etings with the governnt to coordinate opinions and resolve the legal asures needed for the assault.
‘…Experience really isn’t gained for nothing.’
The thought I had before strikes once again.
Association President Kwon Young-hoon’s assurance to leave it to them couldn’t have looked more reliable.
“We will recognize the attendance of all student Holders participating in the assault.”
The Academy, as always, provided the best help they could.
The departure of student Holders from the Academy due to ’s lead in the assault.
They resolved all academic disadvantages that would occur because of this.
…In fact, from Professor Kim Myeong-hyun’ participation in this assault as a rcenary, the Academy’s cooperation should already be seen as at an extre level.
- Clan, first among mid-sized clans to join as a rcenary clan!
-Clan Master Jung Yun-chan, “I think it will be a good opportunity. Holder Do Jae-hyun has the leadership to unite the rcenary clans. He has already proven it sufficiently through his achievents so far. We will trust and follow him.”
-, , … Erging clans are following suit.
-Japanese clan , first overseas clan to join as a rcenary clan!
The busiest were, of course, the clans.
This rcenary recruitnt notice was divided into individual and clan sections for recruitnt.
While there were achievents in the individual section where many independent Holders joined, the most crucial part was still the clan section.
Various mid-sized clans that lost assault rights to the top 3 clans all applied as rcenaries.
In fact, at first, they all seed a bit hesitant, probably worried about their reputation.
They clearly wanted to participate, but didn’t want to openly bow down to , a new clan.
‘…To think would reach out first.’
But , which seed unlikely to participate, moved first.
The Clan Master called directly, gladly agreeing to co as a rcenary, and cooperation was decided.
And following that, other mid-sized clans ca in succession.
In fact, was a clan I didn’t view too favorably because of Jung Hyun-seok, the heir who was supposed to have a matchmaking eting with Moon Ga-eun, but this incident sowhat cleared away that negative perception.
“We will participate in the form of dispatching clan mbers.”
The most unexpected was the decision of the dostic top 3 clans.
, , .
The three clans, each holding assault rights to the 7th District, completely transferred their rights to .
The reason is simple.
While all clans participated from a grand perspective, originally the right to assault itself was held by … And as such, they judged that was also the clan that could most efficiently assault it.
Therefore, they chose the form of directly dispatching their clan’s elite hunting teams to receive our clan’s command.
In other words, even the top 3 clans were recruited as rcenary clans under us.
…Honestly, even I was dumbfounded when I heard that decision.
-In accordance with the friendly clan agreent, we will accept the request for aid from Clan.
From overseas, the clan provided help.
The thod was the sa as last ti, in the form of protecting Korea in preparation for the Deserters’ invasion of the current world.
It was a way to help as best as possible without infringing on each other’s interests.
Anyway, thanks to the active cooperation of Holder-related institutions both dostic and foreign like this, we were able to complete all preparations for the assault on the 7th District.

And the , returned to after a month.
The edge of the 6th District, .
All the forces gathered for this assault were concentrated in one place.
A force where as many as 3 S-grade Holders participated, and all the leading dostic clans participated as rcenaries.
It was literally a force that should be seen as an ‘army’.
And all those overwhelming numbers of Holders were looking at from one place.
The edge of .
A hill where darkness had settled deeply.
I, standing alone on top of it…
Stuck a dazzlingly shining holy sword into the ground and grasped it like a support.
And quietly.
But loud enough for everyone to hear, I murmured.
“From now on, we will enter the 7th District of the Room of Deserters.”
It was the mont when a large-scale dungeon assault, to be recorded in the history of the Holder world, resud.
