After talking with Ban Hye-young, dinner time.
Kang Yoo-sik, who would normally have been settled at a school cafeteria, headed to the restaurant where he was invited by Lee Byung-ho and signed the contract the other day.
Unlike then, there were quite a few other guests inside because they didn't rent this time, but Kim Jin-hyuk, who was invited with him, looked very nervous.
"Here…… it looks very expensive…….”
He looks intimidated by the fact that he can come to this place. Lee Byung-ho, who was sitting opposite him, replied calmly.
"It's not that expensive, so there's nothing to care about. Order whatever you want.
"……really?"
"I'm not going to say that again."
"Well, then…….”
Kim Jin-hyuk looked straight at the menu, and Lee Byung-ho looked at it full of pride.
The two look much closer than before. Kang Yoo-sik smiled unknowingly when he saw the scene.
‘They said they fight in the battle hall every day.… I guess they’ve gotten a little closer.'
When I first heard the words, I wondered if there was still a grudge against each other, but I think they became close enough to be friends, including coming to cheer for each other today.
Kang Yoo-sik suddenly recalled the past when they pretended not to be close to each other but seemed to be close to each other now.
‘Kim Jin-hyuk and Lee Byung-ho were originally not in a close relationship.’
Hunters with the best skills in the world, not only them, they were basically not so close to each other.
The five people who gathered before I returned also only work with the really tricky things, and they usually only move in their guilds.
‘Well, it's only for talented people.’
The higher the rating and the more famous it is, the more followers are created, and vice versa, the more jealous people are created.
There are only two ways not to be swept away. They either have overwhelming force, or they create a force that will support them.
In the former case, there was really only one person in the past, present, and future.
‘And since he's finally dead, there’s no one.'
When Kang Yoo-sik was thinking hard while touching his neck.
"Is there anything wrong?"
Cha Si-hyun, who was sitting next to him, asked quietly.
"No, I'm just reminded of the old days."
"I see……. You must have had a hard time today, so rest first."
"I should. Oh, did you pick anything to eat?”
Cha Si-hyun shook her head slightly at the question of Kang Yoo-sik.
They found someone that was originally unscheduled and brought him with them from the training center, but they seemed to feel pressured to choose a menu.
"Hmm. Would you like the same as mine?"
Cha Si-hyun nodded at Kang Yoo-sik's question.
"Yes, please."
"Then…."
Kang Yoo-sik ordered Cha Si-hyun's right away, and from the side, there were sounds like "Give me from page 1 to 3", and "Piggy".
By the time the dessert comes out after finishing the meal.
"Sir, excuse me…….”
The attendant, who came quietly to the side, whispered something in his ear, and Lee Byung-ho, who heard the words, looked slightly surprised.
"Really?"
"Yes, They are in the VIP room on the second floor."….”
"Um."
Lee Byung-ho, who looked unhappy with the words of his attendant, pondered for a moment and looked at Kang Yoo-sik.
"Bro, I have something to say…….”
"What is it?"
"There's a Chunil Guild official at the restaurant right now, and they’re asking if we'd like to join them for a moment and talk."
"The Chunil Guild?"
Lee Byung-ho nodded at Kang Yoo-sik's question.
"Yes, the leader of the first team, the second team, and the third team, all three of them…….”
Kang Yoo-sik was slightly lost in thought by Lee Byung-ho's words.
‘I'm sure they’re offering to recruitment.’
The world's top 10 guilds rarely approach first, but their performance in today's preliminary match was enough to make them do.
Therefore, the approach itself was taken for granted, but the problem was the current situation.
"I'm meeting with Lee Byung-ho, and it's a bit weird to meet them over there."
Although it is not comparable to Chunil, Chang-eun was also a guild with formidable power, and it is not very good to meet with Chunil executives at a meal with Chang-eun's eldest son.
In addition, if this side becomes a form of visiting, it would be obvious that rumors will spread.
‘They must have known that Lee Byung-ho was here. They are so eager.'
It's not bad, but it's not a chance today. Kang Yoo-sik shook his head when he made the decision.
"No. Ask them to meet at another place next time."
"……Are you okay?"
"You said you were going to buy today. Of course, I'll keep you in your mood."
"I'm fine….”
"If you're going to say that, take care of your face from the beginning."
Lee Byung-ho's face turned slightly red and bowed his head.
"Thank you, brother."
"Don’t mention it. Oh, if Jin-hyuk and Cha Sihyun want to meet, you can go."
The two shook their heads immediately when I said.
"I'm not really interested either.”
"The same goes for me."
"Well, that's good. I'm a little short of dessert, so let's go to a cafe and talk."
Lee Byung-ho smiled and nodded at Kang Yoo-sik's suggestion.
"Yes! I'll take you to a nice place!"
[Debtor Lee Byung-ho's debt increases.]
The notification window came up with a lively answer.
I can't believe he owes me even after buying me a meal. Kang Yoo-sik smiled thinking that he was still young.
* * *
After we finish talking at the dessert cafe.
After returning to school, Kang Yoo-sik moved to the dormitory building with Cha Si-hyun.
"I can't eat anything too sweet, maybe because I'm getting sensitive.”
"If you think that you can taste many, rather than become stronger, you'll feel comfortable."
"Oh, is that possible?"
"Yes, it's true that sensory changes occur depending on perception. If you have sensory skills, you can say it has more influence."
It was late, so there were no cadets walking around the site, and Cha Si-hyun talked more comfortably than usual.
"And now what happened to Hwang Young Group?"
Cha Si-hyun answered Kang Yoo-sik's question with a slight pause.
"I think it's completely cleaned up now. I heard that Hwang Hwi-chan is under management at a nursing home because there is no evidence of the attacker.”
"I see. They gave up sooner than I thought."
"He's actually worth only that much."
As Cha Si-hyun said, Hwang Hwi-chan of the Hwang Young Group was about that much, and I will probably never run into him again in this life.
"Then we don't have to meet carefully anymore."
“!!”
Cha Si-hyun's shoulder shook at Kang Yoo-sik's words and soon nodded slowly.
"That's… that's right.”
"Then from now on, comfortably…… Oh, no. You could get a strange rumor…….”
"That's all right."
"Huh? But…….”
"No problem."
Kang Yoo-sik smiled secretly at Cha Si-hyun's decisive answer.
‘She is indifferent as ever.'
She was like this because I met her after she was quite old, but I can't believe she was so indifferent even when she was still young.
Perhaps it was because she thought of my convenience first because of her debt rating.
‘Well, I can't help it.’
It's a little sad, but I can't force all our debts to settle them.
Kang Yoo-sik, who decided to take care only to prevent strange rumors from spreading, naturally moved on to other topics.
"Oh, come to think of it, didn't another guild come up with an offer? It's over with Hwang Young Group, and it's time to come."
Usually, applications for guild membership or recruitment begin around the first semester of the third grade, but many hunters with outstanding skills came early before then.
Among them, Cha Si-hyun is a cadet who has already developed her skills to the extent that she is comparable to A-class Hunter. The contract with Hwang Young Group has also disappeared, so the giant guilds can't help but covet her.
"We got a proposal from one place today."
"Oh…… is it a big place?”
"The Chunil Guild."
Kang Yoo-sik looked a little surprised at Cha Si-hyun's words and suddenly came up with the event at the restaurant.
"You met with the chief of Attack 1, right?”
"Yes, that's right."
I was wondering why the team leader 1 was with her at the restaurant, and it seems they scattered separately after coming together.
Kang Yoo-sik looked at Cha Si-hyun's words with a slightly interesting look.
"What are you going to do?"
Before returning, Cha Si-hyun had excellent skills, but she did not use all of her potentials.
Hwang Hwi-chan's insistence on using her as an assassin had skewed all the surrounding environment and growth support to that side.
‘Considering the versatility of the coordinator, other directions would have been possible.’
Therefore, Kang Yoo-sik was a little interested in how she would grow up, free from Hwang Hwi-chan.
This is because I can benefit her who has a debt relationship depending on what direction she moves forward.
"I'm……."
Cha Si-hyun, who didn’t end the sentence, stopped walking, turned her head, and looked at him with a serious look.
"What do you want me to do?"
"I don't think it's up to someone else's answer."
"No, your answer is mine."
Kang Yoo-sik was worried about Cha Si-hyun's steady appearance.
It's all beneficial for me whether sending her to other guilds or signing her up for my future guilds, so I'm thinking about what to do.
‘It's good to plant her in other guilds, but……It's too bad for Cha Si-hyun's potential.'
If Cha Si-hyun dies due to the mistake of the guild over there, the debt relationship I have accumulated will be meaningless.
Kang Yoo-sik, who calculated assuming various situations, looked at Cha Si-hyun.
"I'm going to make a club soon."
"A club…?"
"Yes, it's like the cornerstone of a guild to be built in the future, but I've got everything planned. I thought about the early members."
“……!”
Cha Si-hyun's eyes grew bigger in the words of the guild, and Kang Yoo-sik looked slightly awkward.
"I was going to tell you when it's done…… I've been procrastinating a little bit."
Kang Yoo-sik reached out to Cha Si-hyun, talking as if he had been thinking about it for a long time.
"If you don't mind …Would you like to go with me?”
“…….”
Cha Si-hyun stared at Kang Yoo-sik's suggestion, and slightly lowered her gaze and looked at her hand. Then she carefully took off her gloves and held them together.
It's just the palm of her hand, but she can feel more because of cognitive maximization. Kang Yoo-sik looked up at her.
"From now on……I look forward to your kind cooperation."
Cha Si-hyun, with a subtle smile, held his hand tightly as if she wouldn't miss it.
* * *
After coming back to the accommodation.
Sitting on the sofa, Kang Yoo-sik looked at his hand, which was still strangely numb.
‘Cognitive maximization' This is so crazy.'
What kind of handshake makes me feel this long? It feels like Cha Si-hyun's heat has crossed his mind.
Kang Yoo-sik, who had been looking at the palm of his hand for a while, turned to the other side thinking, "Don't pay too much attention."
‘I have to start a club now.’
Kang Yoo-sik's top goal was to create a club and snatch talents, especially Beast Queen, before the summer vacation. However, the most important teacher, Nam Gung-ryun, has not been contacted yet.
‘I know you're careful about your unique skills…….’
It's already been almost 3 weeks and there's no call, let alone a notification window. I should visit him again. When Kang Yoo-sik is thinking about it.
[Meets the debt relationship conditions.]
[Confirmed the registration of the debtor ‘Nam Gung-ryun'. Determine the debt rating as Class A]
The long-awaited notification window. Kang Yoo-sik, who read the words, eased his frowning face.
‘Grade A.'
He didn't experience the side effects of the leader yet, so I thought the rating would be low, but I guess I was worried about nothing.
When Kang Yoo-sik had a satisfied look on his face.
Tiriling-
"Hmm?"
A cell phone that rings suddenly. Kang Yoo-sik gave a curious look to the name Namgung-ryun on the screen.
‘What is it?’
When I see the notification window coming up, I wonder if he got something to say. Kang Yoo-sik answered the phone right away.
– Can you spare me some time tomorrow…?
The voice of Nam Gung-ryun, whose head became strange, came.
