chapter 28
‘As expected.’
In fact, Tae-jung was vaguely guessing.
There are as many as three hunters in the top 20.
The only guilds in that position were Hansando and Superman Club.
However, if she was Hansando, Lee Mu-bae, a ranger under their control, could not do anything like a surprise attack.
“what? Did you know?”
“Not at all.”
“But what is the reaction like? Was this the club’s only reputation?”
“Because it is so unexpected.”
“but. Because we hardly did any activities in Korea.”
“By the way, can I get into the club?”
“You say your younger brother is Hidden too? It will work because the minimum conditions are met, maybe.”
At Seolah Han’s answer, Taejeong felt her heart pound.
Being a member of the Superman Club.
It was a great opportunity and a fortune.
It is not registered in the official domestic rankings, but it is a unique organization that no guild can dare to ignore.
The only guild that is ranked number 1 and is not affected by Hansando, a government organization.
Entering such a place was tantamount to being guaranteed a brilliant future.
Furthermore, since I already owed my life once, it was enough justification for me to enter.
‘This is an opportunity that will never come again. This place is world class.’
After dinner, they left the hotel.
“Where are you going now? Do you go straight to the club?”
“Wait a minute.”
Seolah Han said that and put her mouth to the ring she was wearing on her finger.
Then the color of the ring changes and emits a brilliant light.
It was a long-distance communication ring that could not be eavesdropped on.
She glanced at Tae-jung, then turned around and started communicating with someone.
“Jin, it’s me. yes. First of all, it was as expected. yes. okay. okay.”
After a brief communication, Han Seol-ah opened her mouth to Tae-jeong.
“let’s go.”
“Have you lost your permission?”
“Roughly.”
“Roughly? What is it roughly?”
“Brother, just trust this older sister. let’s go. Before going to headquarters, this sister will give you a big present.”
Han Seol-ah said that and led Tae-jeong in her car.
“By the way, what gift is it?”
“I will know when I go.”
The place we arrived by car was a beach in Gangwon-do.
And a yacht in sight.
“I’m going to wear that.”
“Suddenly hungry?”
“You have to ride that to get into headquarters. To get a present on the way.”
Taejeong had a lot of questions, but decided to just follow him in silence.
I owe you my life anyway, so what’s the point of doubting?
There’s no need to look light and fussing around for nothing.
“Wow.”
Taejeong, who got on the yacht for the first time in her life, stuck her tongue out at the fancy facilities inside.
Luxurious interior comparable to a 5-star hotel room.
‘How much do you want to do this?’
While Tae-jeong was looking around, the yacht set off.
Throughout the voyage he had predicted where the destination would be.
Of course, the most powerful place was the island.
It was because there was no other place to go by boat.
After such a long time has passed.
The speed of the fast-moving yacht gradually decreased, and soon anchored in the middle of the sea.
“done. arrived. come out.”
At Han Seol-ah’s words, Tae-jeong went up to the deck.
Then the endless expanse of the sea appeared.
However, no matter where I looked to the left or right, there was no island or land in sight.
What the hell is going on here?
Tae-jeong, puzzled, asked her.
“What’s in here? No matter how much I look around, it seems that there is only the sea.”
“right.”
“Right, what is that… … .”
“We are going to this sea.”
“Yes? Could this have been a submarine?”
At his absurd words, Han Seol-ah burst into laughter with a ‘fu-ha’.
“What are you talking about. We will leave the yacht and go down alone.”
“ah. I again… … .”
“Are you ready? go in.”
“Right now?”
“Goes.”
Before he had time to reply, his body was caught in Han Seol-ah’s hand and floated into the air.
Their new type that falls into the sea as it is.
with a splash!
“Ahh! what is this… … .”
Taejeong, who was suddenly thrown into the water, struggled and screamed.
No matter how embarrassed he was, his outstretched hand instantly grabbed Seolah Han’s hair without mercy.
“Leave this! head!”
“Ugh. I can’t swim… yo. this! Whoa! 100 million! fishing! pooh!”
Han Seol-ah, whose head was caught and her neck broken, tried to reassure him as much as possible, but it didn’t work at all for Tae-jung, who was already in a panic.
The scary survival instinct that keeps holding on the more you push it away.
In the end, she took the hanging man and dived as it was.
Tae-jung’s struggles intensified as her body shuddered and disappeared.
However, the body that sank once did not rise again, and fell helplessly as if being sucked into a whirlpool.
‘why!?’
For a moment I wonder.
His gestures, which had been shaking violently to live, rapidly faded.
Even though I was underwater, I couldn’t breathe at all.
“Are you calming down now?”
These were the words Han Seol-ah gave as she released her hand.
“water is… It doesn’t come through my nose.”
“It’s because of the yeomdongmyeong around you. It’s a kind of protection.”
“ah. Please tell me in advance.”
“Didn’t you feel it?”
“What?”
“I fell into the water, but my clothes weren’t wet.”
“ah.”
Come to think of it, I didn’t feel like touching the water.
It was such a tense situation that I didn’t even feel that this was strange.
Seeing Taejeong like that, she pointed down.
“Anyway, I’m sure it’s safe now. Hold on well and follow along. I’ll go deeper. By the way, if you fall beyond a certain distance, the hydrochloric membrane will be released. Don’t look away and hold on tight. The water pressure is very strong down here.”
With a warning, their new model began to sink again.
Although Tae-jeong was still nervous, the sight under the sea was a truly rare sight that he had never seen before.
A different level of vividness than what you see on TV.
In addition, this magnificence and huge space that dare not be expressed in words was so great that humans realized how small animals are in front of nature.
However, such unexplored times were short-lived.
It was because soon the sea became dark and the sight completely disappeared to the point that even Seol-Ah Han in front of him could not be seen.
“there… … .”
“why?”
“I can’t see it.”
“Because it’s serious. no light Do you see that over there?”
“Where are you?”
“there. like a white dot. It’s down there.”
At her words, Taejeong looked around and looked down.
In complete darkness, not even his own hands could be seen.
I even rolled my eyes for a while to the extent that I wondered if it had any meaning.
Soon, he caught a dot that looked like a light in his eyes.
It grew as time passed, and he was finally able to recognize its identity.
“A portal?”
“It’s a place I listen to sometimes when I’m resting. Have you ever seen something like this?”
“Not at all… I couldn’t have imagined it. No, it’s more amazing that I can come here.”
“I memorize one road like crazy. Let’s go in.”
Saying that, Han Seol-ah took Tae-jeong’s hand, and the two disappeared beyond the gate.
after. The exposed background was a beach with pure white sand.
“What do you think? Is the view good?”
“exactly… I guess it’s special. A beach in the deep sea But why… … ?”
“I told you. I’ll give you a present before going into headquarters. Come and see.”
Han Seol-ah led Tae-jeong and walked in front of the palm tree.
Then, after looking around, he started digging into the sandy bottom.
how long has it been like that?
Soon a bundle of old cloth came into her hand.
“Look at this. It’s been three years and I’m still there.”
“What is it?”
“this? Good things. It’s yours.”
“Then this is a gift… … .”
“In a big way, it is. Is this like an appetizer for a main course? The real thing is different.”
Tae-jeong couldn’t understand what Han Seol-ah was saying, but first of all, he felt good when he said it was a gift.
This is because if it was a gift from a super special hunter like her, it would definitely not be an ordinary one.
What’s more, if you look at the fact that they brought you to such a secret space.
There was a high probability that it was so great that he could not even think of it.
‘It’s definitely an item that I can’t even imagine at my level. If you do well, it might be a rare equipment.’
While he was waiting inwardly, the bundle was unpacked.
And what came out was a small bottle with something in it.
“What is it?”
“It’s like a booster. It has an excellent effect on increasing physical strength.”
“As for physical strength, it seems to be some kind of stamina potion.”
“It’s a little different than that. It usually has no effect. what is this Shall we call it a survival potion that allows you to exert superhuman strength in a tense situation? well anyways Now take off your clothes and sit back.”
“Yes? Why are the clothes… … .”
“Because I have to apply this.”
At Seolah Han’s words, Taejeong waved her hand as if she was a little taken aback.
“I’ll apply it later when I need it.”
“Now is the time you need it.”
“Then please. I know… … .”
“Uh huh. It works best if you apply it well in every nook and cranny. And I have to get my hands on it to maximize it even more. So, feel free to turn around and leave everything to this sister.”
“ah. Still, it’s a bit… … .”
When Taejeong hesitated to undress, she put her chin on her chin and spat out the words.
“It’s more mugwort than it looks. Opportunities like this don’t come often. You’ll regret it for the rest of your life, okay? If you don’t do this, you can’t even see the main, aren’t you curious? what you will get.”
“What is it? I will get it.”
“I cannot tell you now. Because it’s no fun if you know in advance. What should I do? Shall we stop here?”
It was an offer I couldn’t refuse.
‘okay. It’s a present given by a hunter who is in the top 20 of the rankings. If I blow this opportunity, I’m no different from an idiot.’
As if he had made up his mind, he took off his shirt with a very serious expression.
Then, his muscular body, trained through hard work, was revealed.
“Five. brother is good Are these all muscles?”
“What… I’m not proud of it, but I can say that it’s a real muscle that has been trained through nogada. I did quite a bit of porter work.”
“no wonder. It looks different from muscles made for show off. Suddenly, your sister looks like a man?”
“Yes!?”
“It’s a joke. then apply It will be a little cold at first.”
Soon after, her hand touched his back.
flinch.
For the first time in his life, Tae-jung, who had entrusted himself to the hands of an extramarital woman, felt electricity running through his body.
‘This feels a bit strange.’
Taejeong, whose body was slightly heated up from nervousness, realized that her heart rate was getting faster and faster.
Is it already taking effect?
“How are you feeling? Aren’t you a little hot?”
“I think my body has definitely gotten a little hot.”
“How are you feeling?”
“I do not know. I don’t really feel… But it also seems to give me strength when my heart is beating wildly. It seems to be working already?”
“okay? Then can you use your strength later?”
“What power?”
“I don’t want my brother to disappoint this sister.”
“Disappointment, what is that… … .”
Taejeong, who continued the conversation, was seized with a strange feeling.
It was because the content of the conversation that was flowing was unusual.
‘what is this? Isn’t that a bit strange?’
It was definitely not a normal situation.
A secret space that no one can find.
Her hands were blatantly running through every nook and cranny of her body.
A conversation that flows strangely(?).
Even medicines that increase stamina.
What does this have to do with gifts?
‘I hope this… … .’
After putting all the circumstances together, Tae-jeong finally came to a conclusion.
‘Is it an energy pill?’
In Tae-jeong’s opinion, the identity of the drug seemed to be an aphrodisiac.
In the first place, what is there to do with strength in this peaceful resort that no one is looking for?
Furthermore, isn’t she, a celestial hunter, next to him?
Besides, it was actually Taejeong who had been receiving signals (?) little by little since applying the medicine.
I thought it was a natural phenomenon, but now that I look at it, it’s clear that it’s because of the drug.
Otherwise, how could a reaction come from touching the body?
‘How should I do this?’
Tae-jung was agonizing over how to handle this situation.
If you go in this state, you might really have to pay for something.
But no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t allow myself to be with a woman I had never seen before.
It was not the chastity she had kept for eight years for no reason.
He called her to politely decline.
“Hey sister, I’m actually… … .”
“… … .”
“sister?”
Taejeong, who had been calling her, turned around feeling something strange.
Then, Han Seol-ah, who was supposed to be there, was nowhere to be seen.
‘what? Where are you going?’
Taejeong, who was looking for her in all directions, got up from her seat wondering what was going on.
at that time. A presence was detected in the palm grove to the rear.
“what. disappeared… … .”
He turned around casually, unable to finish his words.
It was because there was not Seolah Han, but a monster he had never seen before.
For a moment I thought something was wrong.
Buaang-!
There was a great roar, and dark things rose like bees above the palm grove.
At the same time, a confused voice came out of Taejeong’s mouth.
“Who, sister?”
