On the surface, the conditions said it would be given âspeciallyâ to Haeun as if it were a huge benefit, but as expected, it was all just to show off.
âThe Internet said they would give me fifteen billion.â
Even the contents of the down payment are completely missing!
Haeun said as she closed the contract.
âI will refuse.â
âWhy? It would be hard to find a better condition than this.â
Haeun stuck out her tongue at Lee Hyeonokâs pretentious behavior. It seemed that a slightly thicker face wasnât enough for her to be a guild leader of the Daehan Guild.
It wasnât such a good condition, and this was what other guilds suggested. In particular, the small and medium guilds were eager to pull Haeun up to the roots of the guild pillars.
If they want to bring Jung Haeun, they have to do that.
In addition, an American Hunter Association has already approached Haeun for 50 million dollars. The contract, which her family turned down because they were all living in Korea, but she wanted.
Haeun hid her inner feelings and gave her reasons for external use.
âBecause itâs still time to learn.â
âAwakening is nothing short of a rebirth. As soon as you awakened, you would have realized how to use your strength.â
âIâm strong at individual play but still inexperienced in team play.â
âCome to Daehan and learn.â
She doesnât understand at all. Haeun murmured, thinking she was the top of the people who acted bossy.
âWhat did you believe in and learn from a guild that kidnaps people?â
Of course, the voice was loud enough for the person sitting next to her in the carâs back seat to hear it clearly. Lee Hyeonokâs eyebrows twitched.
What did I say wrong? I didnât lie at all. Haeun shrugged her shoulders.
âOkay. I apologize for asking for a conversation in a somewhat coercive way.â
Surprisingly, Lee Hyeonok apologized. Although the adverb âsomewhatâ was added.
âBut the words to join the Daehan Guild are sincere. Throw away the lame excuses that you still have to learn. Is there any reason not to join the Daehan Guild? Do you think Ahyeon and Dawn can beat Daehan no matter how hard they try?â
âAhyeon seems to have more top rankers.â
âAnyway, the guild that represents Korea is the Daehan Guild.â
Lee Hyeonok was also very proud of her own guild. In the end, Haeun sighed and said.
âI donât want to belong to one guild, but I want to work freely.â
She will do what she has to do, but she will refuse her more than that. She wanted to decline the ending of death from overwork.
Moreover, Haeun and Jung Eunwoo had already promised to participate in a dungeon raid every two weeks. Yesterday too, Jung Eunwoo had been contemplating on which dungeon to send Haeun to first!
âThatâs why I refuse to join the Daehan Guild.â
âCan you really do that?â
Lee Hyeonok smiled. It was a kind but ominous smile.
âOnce upon a time, there was a child I cared for.â
Suddenly, itâs an old story. Haeun listened in silence for a moment.
âThe grade was good, and the learning ability was good, so if I let the child know, that child would do it well. The attack performance was also good. Everyone said that when that child grows up, that child will succeed me and become a guild leader.â
Was there such a person in Daehan Guild? Lee Hyeonok asked Haeun, who tilted her head.
âWhat do you think that person would be like now?â
âSeeing that the guild leader hasnât changed, is that person still the vice guild leader?â
âNo. That person quit being a hunter.â
âWhy?â
âThat kid had a disagreement with me on an important point. Thereâs no need to have unnecessary personnel. Of course, I wanted to use it if I could fix it. But no matter how hard I tried to persuade him, he didnât listen.â
ââŚDo you mean that you talked to him?â
âItâs not even a child, so it canât be.â
Lee Hyeonok, who smiled at Haeun as if she was innocent, hardened her face.
âI stopped the activity. He couldnât do raid activities because the government didnât permit him to attack, and he couldnât buy goods because he was hit by a van in the market. Personal requests came in from time to time, but even that was cut off. Donât I have to do that to get your act together?â
ââŚ.â
âUnfortunately, he went a different path because we didnât agree until the end. Now heâs farming tangerines in Jeju Island.â
Haeun looked at Lee Hyeonok coldly.
Lee Hyeonok is now threatening to do the same thing if Haeun doesnât listen.
Moreover, the threats didnât end there.
âLee Yoonkyung. Jung Jinho. Jung Eunwoo. Jung Sehyun. They are all good hunters.â
âDonât even think about touching my family.â
Haeun growled when she mentioned the name of her family. Even if she doesnât know her, she canât forgive her for touching her family. No, even touching Haeun herself is unforgivable. Who are you trying to touch me?
âIf you did that, I wouldnât stay still.â
âWhat is Hunter Jung Haeun going to do?â
Haeun stopped talking. Then, she raised an eyebrow and smiled.
âFirst of all, I should say thank you. I just learned something good.â
Lee Hyeonok kindly told Haeun how to kick out the antagonist in detail.
âI will do the same. First of all, I will contact Haniel and ask them not to sell items to hunters belonging to the Daehan Guild. The same goes for all the items from other workshops exhibited at the Haniel Expo, right? Wow, the quality of the entries this time is really good! itâs a shame!â
Lee Hyeonok ferociously hardened her face.
âThe governmentâs permission to attack is, hmm⌠First of all, it is not likely that my mom and brother will remain silent. If thatâs not enough, can I lead the American political community? Actually, I have done a small favor to a famous politician there.â
âHunter Jung Haeun.â
âOf course, they canât directly interfere with the situation in Korea, but they can put pressure on it in other ways, right? I really donât want to do this, but what can I do? Iâm not interested in tangerine farming.â
Lee Hyeonok looked at Haeun fiercely. Haeun also received Lee Hyeonokâs eyes without losing.
As if the second game would begin at any moment, the atmosphere inside the car became grim.
At that moment, someone knocked on the car door.
Knock, knockâ.
Haeun and Lee Hyeonok, who were fighting a war of nerves, turned their heads at the same time. They could see someone standing over the black tinted window. The opponent burst open the door.
âHey, what are you doing here?â
The car door opened and it was Jung Eunwoo who suddenly appeared.
âWhat, how do you know Iâm hereâŚâ
Haeun, who was muttering, bewildered, looked at it at that moment. Dozens of people who followed Jung Eunwoo are looking around this place with curious eyes!
Oh, she made eye contact.
The people who found Haeun screamed.
âKyaaa! Itâs Hunter Jung Haeun!â
âWhoa, what to do! Itâs really Jung Haeun!â
âHaeun-ah! Do you remember me? We saw each other at the opening party two years ago!â
I donât know! I donât remember anything like that!
Fortunately, people didnât come right in front of the car. Instead, they were gathered in a place far away.
Leaving behind a huge fuss, Jung Eunwoo made a scene.
âHey, you told me to come quickly and youâre hiding here.â
Haeun was furious.
âI wasnât here because I wanted to. And I told you to be here by one oâclock!â
âHey, Jung Haeun. I spent half my time because of you.â
Jung Eunwooâs expression became ugly. Haeun was a little scared. Why is he being so sensitive?
âHunter Jung Haeun, Hunter Jung Eunwoo.â
Lee Hyeonok called the two. The fierce look was over, and before she knew it, she was back to looking like a guild leader with a lot of experience.
Jung Eunwoo gestured as if telling her to get off. As Haeun had hoped for, she quickly stretched her legs out of the car. Haeun said, putting her body halfway out.
âAnyway. I will not join the Daehan Guild.â
âYou will regret it.â
âThen come with a better offer.â
Then sheâll think about that little amount.
âKyaaaa! Hunter Jung Haeun! Please give me a sign!â
âLetâs take a picture!!â
First, after running away from here!
* * *
Kiikâ.
The car that was running fiercely came to a stop in the underground parking lot of a building.
An hour from Haeunâs school, the building standing tall on the outskirts of Seoul had a total of five stories. Haeun muttered as she got out of the car.
âUh, I feel like throwing up.â
From school, there were people who quickly followed, and they ran wild to get rid of them. Unlike Haeun, Jung Eunwoo, who has a clear face, said casually.
âWork out.â
âYou didnât drive properly!â
And she doesnât want to hear that from a muscle pig who spends three hours every day at the gym. How far is he going to build up his body? Is he thinking of entering a bodybuilding competition?
Jung Eunwoo pressed the button on the monitor right next to the elevator.
âOpen the door.â
The high-tech system that uses the magic stone scanned Jung Eunwoo. The door opened as soon as the scan was completed, and Haeun and Jung Eunwoo got on the elevator. When they arrived at the second floor after passing through the first floor, the landlord stuck out his head and greeted the two.
âWelcome.â
Currently, Haeunâs family is staying in a building owned by Jung Sehyun located near Seoul until the preparations for the new house are completed.
Originally, after their whereabouts were revealed in Gyeonggi-do, they decided to stay in a suite at the Westwood Hotel until they found a new place to live.
However, as people continued to follow them, they had no choice but to revise their plans. Some even rang the doorbell on the pretext of room service they didnât order.
âWe canât do this. Donât stay here. Letâs go somewhere else.â
âWhere else?â
âMy house.â
At first, Jung Sehyun, who didnât say anything, confessed to his family that he had a building.
It was natural for the family to be surprised.
âWhat do you mean a building? Not a house, but a building?â
âItâs nothing special. Itâs just a small thing.â
âOh my. When on earth did you buy it?â
âHmm. Just in the past?â
Jung Sehyun, who replaced the answer with a smile, led his family and moved to his own building that day.
Park Yeongsik, the president of the Westwood Hotel and acquainted with Haeunâs family, decided to decorate the suite as if Jungâs family were staying there.
When Haeun first arrived at the building Sehyun mentioned, she was surprised by the much better facilities than the apartment she and her family lived in. Jung Jinho and Lee Yoonkyung probably didnât know this, and it was clear that they were embarrassed.
âWhy didnât you say anything when you had a house like this?â
âHaha.â
Again, as expected, he covered it with laughter.
Haeun thought maybe Jung Sehyun had another hidden building.
