Byun Dae-sang, an intern of the Hunter Management Agency’s Rift Control Team, checked the time with his smartphone.
An hour and 40 minutes have already passed since he changed shifts with Cha Seok-woo, another intern.
Two days ago, a Rift suddenly appeared within a store named “Hanwoo Village” in Deokyang-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do.
Kwon Hyuk-soo, the official in charge of this Rift, ranked it as C-class.
Orcs were some of the denizens identified inside the Rift which are the most common amongst C-class monsters.
On the Rift Entry Record,
A total of 37 Hunters entered the Rift two days after it appeared.
However, only 5 Hunters came back out as of now.
The five Hunters who returned were the first team to enter on the first day of its appearance. They only came out 8 hours after entering the Rift.
Then, in the next 12 hours, a total of 25 additional Hunters entered the Rift.
And there are no signs of them returning back.
Normally, Hunters usually stay inside the Rifts for an average of 8 hours.
Inside the Rifts, there is nothing to eat and nowhere to rest, that is why…
‘Sleeping inside the Rift is like committing suicide.’
‘Hmm, does this mean that the Hunters who haven’t come out until now are still hunting without eating and sleeping?’
‘Should I notify the headquarters?’
At that moment, two people came in front of Byun Dae-sang.
One was a typical Hunter wearing a Suit with a sword in her hand.
‘That Suit looks pretty good.’
That Suit was worn by a woman in her early 20s. It looked classy and luxurious, which was different from the mass-produced type.
In contrast, a man in his mid to late 20s, who appeared to be just her traveling companion, was not dressed like a Hunter at all.
He was like a typical office worker that you see everyday.
<b>“Good day, sir. I’m Lee Do-jun from the Rift Management Department of the Seoul City Hall, and this is Hunter Cha Yeji, our Contracted Hunter.”</b>
<b>“…Ahh. No wonder. I thought your outfit was quite unusual. So, you two must be here for the Rift Exploration today.”</b>
Three trolls appeared behind a huge tree.
