Chapter 114
Excluding Hyun-Soo, everyone was in the sa situation, so they promised to keep quiet about this .
“We need make sure Team Xeon keeps their mouths shut too!”
One person urged that they get rid of the evidence .
Blehhhhh!
Team Xeon was busy vomiting, so they didn’t really have to worry .
However, the more important mbers of the guild looked at Hyun-Soo oddly .
Hyun-Soo felt their stares and put on a big smile while looking back at them .
There was no reason to avoid them .
He actually wanted them to see, judge and think about it .
The floor that shined brightly was actually the first floor .
“Is it because it’s a colorful portal? Nothing is easy . ”
No one had any idea as to what kind of space they were in .
Once they realized that they landed on the first floor without dying, they released a sigh of relief .
If sothing went wrong, the first floor would’ve be covered in blood .
The hunters that co in after won’t have any idea as to what happened and how they ended up dying this way .
“Tsk, tsk . How much longer are you guys going to keep vomiting?”
“Should we dismber while waiting?”
“Yeah . ”
They were supposed to dismber the monster with Team Xeon .
Kim Yoo-Na’s clan did all the hunting and the only thing Team Xeon did was get in the way .
But, they did participate so that they could guide Team Xeon during the hunt .
That’s why it’s better for both sides to observe and see how the situation works out .
However…… .
Blahhhhhhh!
Brad looked over at Team Xeon and then shook his head .
A few talented mbers of Xeon noticed and approached the group .
Leon was in that group .
“The outside looks fine, but it looks like the internal organs have been damaged . ”
“It seems like the internal organs were the monster’s weakness . ”
“Despite of that, the monster hasn’t been affected that much . We should try running a simulation . ”
The mbers were contemplating on whether to dismber the body, but decided not to and took the whole body .
Dismbering the monster would make it easier to move, but it was a waste .
There wasn’t a monster in the first colorful portal, and Karazhan, who was in the second portal, was destroyed . .
That’s why, even though the internal organs have been damaged, the Puppeteer’s body was in pretty good condition .
“Then, I guess we’ll just take it as is . ”
They also decided not to dismber it for research purposes .
The second corpse of a monster they obtained from a colorful portal .
It’ll be a valuable sample .
Team Xeon quietly approached, but didn’t say anything .
They didn’t do anything to earn it .
They finished negotiating in the beginning anyways .
‘They were right when they said that Team Xeon was going to act like that . ’
All the mbers knew that Team Xeon purposely showed respect towards Kim Yoo-Na .
However, just after two etings, the way the mbers and Leon acted made them look suspicious .
‘But this hunt confird it . ’
That Team Xeon was now under Kim Yoo-Na’s clan .
They were famous within the hunter world, but now, they were starting to beco well-known in society .
And now, they could be considered as specialists .
But, they still needed more ti in order for others to acknowledge them as being the best .
Leon, the leader of the clan, stooped down to get here .
‘I can’t tell if he’s smart or if he’s just skilled at getting things he wants . Oh, he could be quick-witted . ’
Kim Yoo-Na’s clan was big .
The clan will only get bigger and that ant that the clan will receive a lot of attention .
Hyun-Soo didn’t have Ariel’s ability, but that’s what his gut told him .
So, he understood why Xeon was acting that way .
They observe the clans to see which one is growing and becoming the best and stick with the clan that has a better chance .
The clan was well-known all over the world and the reason why they begged her to take them in is because…
‘They’re trying to survive by using Kim Yoo-Na . ’
Their plan was obvious .
The powerful clans were wiped out because of the colorful portal .
Will the popular guilds and groups be able to maintain their fa?
Hyun-Soo’s answer was no .
‘It would make sense if it was impossible for everyone, but we already cleared three portals . ’
The more a person succeeds, the more the others are affected by it .
‘Because of that, we have more people keeping us in check . ’
Sothing big was going to happen soon .
And Xeon tead up with Kim Yoo-Na’s clan .
It was a change they needed to make in order to survive .
This can be considered as the clan’s first alliance .
Kim Yoo-Na must’ve felt that she needed them, so that’s why she accepted .
She could’ve co to the realization about the necessity and importance of power .
‘Well…okay, fine . Everything is fine, but why do I feel like sothing is off? I’m getting a feeling that that’s not the only thing they’re after . ’
Ismael and David must’ve also felt the sa, because they quietly approached him .
They stood next to Hyun-Soo .
They whispered as if they were discreetly making a drug deal .
“Hey, rookie . We shouldn’t just stand around like this . ”
“You’re right . We shouldn’t just stand still like this . We have to be cautious!”
“……What are you saying?”
“Can’t you tell? It’s ti for your second hunt to begin . ”
“Huh? But it’s already been cl…”
“No, no . Why are you so dense? I’m talking about over there . ”
Hyun-Soo looked where Ismael’s finger was pointing at .
It was Kim Yoo-Na and Leon .
“Hey, rookie . Can you see?”
“If you’re talking about Yoo-Na, I can see her . ”
“Do you see the sardine next to her?”
“Sardine?”
“Yeah, he slls fishy . ”
He didn’t even know what a sardine looked like .
They usually say ridiculous things like this, so Hyun-Soo didn’t really say much .
But, it was odd that he couldn’t stop looking at Kim Yoo-Na .
“You see, a long ti ago…that guy acted out of place and…”
“Doesn’t he look unpleasant? But that guy…!”
It was obvious as to why they were telling Hyun-Soo this .
They were using taphors to reveal sothing to Hyun-Soo .
They were telling him to catch onto what they were talking about .
‘I’m sure they’ll complain if I don’t ask…’
Even the middle-aged housewives wouldn’t be as annoying as them .
Hyun-Soo asked to keep them quiet .
“What happened between them?”
David and Ismael replied right away .
“I heard that when Yoo-Na was an active hunter, that fishy guy asked her out on a date . ”
“Really? I heard that it was just a crush . But he was so obvious about it that everyone knew . ”
And their faces were telling Hyun-Soo to ask them more .
Hyun-Soo felt overwheld, so he asked .
“A-and then?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Yoo-Na rejected him . Our Yoo-Na is pretty prideful . She said she didn’t want to and that now wasn’t a good ti, so she coldly rejected him . ”
“The people watching were embarrassed for him because she was so cold . ”
“But that’s when the problem started . ”
“……Problem?”
“That sardine had a grudge against her, so he created a guild . ”
“……Excuse ?”
Anyone was able to create a guild, right?
Of course they needed power, wealth and supporting mbers in order to get approval .
“Wait . Just wait . Don’t you think that’s just an assumption? It could seem that way because of the timing . ”
Creating a guild because he got rejected once by a girl?
That just seems overdramatic .
He asked because it sounded absurd, but their replies were ridiculous .
“No way . He’s so petty, that he put others in the sa situation . That was when the clan was established!”
“And do you know what he said after he created the guild before us?”
“N-no”
“To join his guild!”
They both said the last part at the sa ti .
If what they said was true, then it was understandable as to why they didn’t like him and his clan .
“He joined another large group because Yoo-Na rejected . And they were able to grow because of that . Since Yoo-Na wanted a small group, our level of awareness was…just a little!…behind theirs . But we were more talented than them!”
“Oh, I see…… . ”
“But that sa guy ca back and is acting like nothing happened between them . ”
David placed his hand on Hyun-Soo’s shoulder .
“What do you think?”
“……About what?”
He did have an assumption .
That they were bitter towards the leader of Team Xeon .
“That…he’s a bad guy?”
According to the mbers, he was a bad guy .
He was more petty than bad .
He left because he couldn’t be in the sa room with the girl that rejected him, but he ca back, so that would make him petty .
‘Only if what they said were true . ’
Like any mbers of a clan, they leaned more towards Kim Yoo-Na .
So he couldn’t exclude the fact that they had biased opinions .
Even though Hyun-Soo felt that sothing was off with Leon .
“Yeah, he’s a bad guy . That’s why, it’s ti for you to go in, rookie . ”
“So go over there and destroy that petty sardine . ”
“……Excuse ?”
“You heard . Can’t you tell? That guy is using the alliance as an excuse and is trying to make his move on Yoo-Na!”
Hyun-Soo glanced over at Kim Yoo-Na and Leon .
They were talking, but it didn’t seem like they were talking about the things that David and Ismael were worried about .
“I don’t think……?”
“Oh, jeez . You’re so dense . Just go . Bring her here . That’s your mission . ”
Hyun-Soo thought it was absurd how they spoke to him as if they were giving him orders .
“Then why did you tell Kim Yoo-Na not to agree on the alliance?”
It was obvious that they didn’t like Leon .
Despite of that, they accepted the offer, but it seed like they left their personal thoughts out of it… .
“Heh heh…honestly, we agreed because we want to see him struggle . ”
……Or not .
Anyways, Hyun-Soo approached Kim Yoo-Na because the two pushed him .
“Oh, Hyun-Soo . ”
Kim Yoo-Na greeted when she noticed Hyun-Soo approaching her .
