The scouts’ business cards were laid out on the table. I sat around with Lee Ji-ah, put their heads together, and fell into trouble.

Oh, I need to sort these out first.

I pulled out a few business cards from the display.

“Hyun-woo, why those business cards?”

Lee Ji-ah asks, puzzled. I handed over the cards I just pulled out so that they could be easily seen at a glance.

“Arena, Taesan, Halo… … They’re all large guilds, aren’t they?”

But why take this off?

It was written just like that on Lee Ji-ah’s face.

One by one, he explained.

“It’s a company that Kim Seung-yoon, a class A hunter who participated as a guide in the Arena Guild and Abyss raid team, belongs.”

“… ?”

“Taesan Guild, like the Abyss raid team, A-class hunter Park Jae-min belongs to the company.”

“ah.”

All of these companies were brought out during Lee Ji-ah’s hearing.

crazy guys When was the last time you guys wanted to bury them, and now they come and give you a business card? I’m afraid I’ll hit the back of the head, so I’ll do my job comfortably.

Even if dirt got into my eyes, I had no intention of sending Lee Ji-ah to a place like this.

I tore the business cards up and threw them in the corner.

There were still many business cards left.

“This, this, this… … .”

He moved his hand without hesitation and took out the business cards. Again, Lee Ji-ah asked.

“Why?”

“It’s the first time I’ve heard of it all.”

Until a month ago, I was also an Awakener who dreamed of becoming a Hunter. Although I have not been directly involved in the industry, there is information that I have heard through rumors to some extent.

But the business cards I’ve picked out now are companies I’ve never heard of.

What is Seungsu Trading Co., Ltd.?

These places were really just a way of stabbing Lee Ji-ah.

Can you meet the minimum conditions for S-class hunter Lee Ji-ah? It can’t be. You don’t even need to react.

“This, this, this… … .”

Except because these are the guys who tried to f*ck us, except for that guild I’ve never heard of.

Also, except for this because the financial situation is not good, and for that one because there are so many bad rumors in the industry.

After sorting, only five of the dozens of business cards left on the table.

All five were not enough for a large company, but for a small and medium-sized guild, they were fairly solid and medium-sized guilds.

“Hyun-woo, are you okay?”

Lee Ji-ah asked if she seemed worried about coming into the company now.

“… … We need to make some adjustments.”

He pulled out his cell phone and dialed the number on his business card.

The manager asked the scout.

“Seonghyun?”

“Ah, chief. What are you doing?”

“How is Ji-ah?”

an attitude of optimism. The scout scratched his head shyly.

“Well, I went all the way to the front of the house.”

“By the way?

“The manager has no idea yet… … I didn’t even give you a business card.”

“What?”

“There were so many scouts from other companies that they ran away with disgust.”

The headmaster’s face suddenly became gloomy. The scout hastily made excuses.

“Hey, there is a kid who lives with Lee Ji-ah Hunter’s house, so the business card is given to him… … .”

“Hey, you bastard!”

The manager raised a finger and raised his voice.

“Do you know what kind of parenting variety show you are filming right now?! I couldn’t talk properly once, but the girl in the house handed it over to me. It would go in the trash can anyway!”

The scout’s neck shrugged. He carefully excused himself.

“As I said before, there are so many scouts who are aiming for Lee Ji-ah… … .”

“It’s your job to do it somehow!”

How to do the impossible?

I can’t eat it because it’s dirty.

The scout, who muttered a little inwardly, bowed his head.

“sorry!”

“I’m going to find Lee Ji-ah. You, put together a list of hunters whose contract period is over, and put them on your desk until today! Okay?”

When the team leader told me to work overtime, the scout swallowed my tears and answered.

“Yep!”

It was when the scout sitting at the desk was making up the list while cheering.

tiling.

The phone rings. It’s an unknown number The scout answered the call.

“This is Bae Seong-hyun from the Weathering Guild.”

-hello? Manager Hyunwoo Kim. The business card you sent was well received.

A man’s voice pierces my ears.

Kim Hyun-woo? Who was Kim Hyun-woo?

The thoughts of overtime work do not leave my mind.

The scout, who had the phone on his shoulder, tapped the keyboard and asked.

“Excuse me, but who are you?”

– Kim Hyun-woo. Uh, are you the scout of the Weathering Guild?

“Yes, that’s right. Kim Hyun… … .”

The scout’s mouth opened. He straightened up his posture and answered.

“Ho, are you Lee Ji-ah’s manager?”

-Right.

“Oh, excuse me! What is the purpose of calling you?”

-I want to talk a little bit about the contract with the Weathering Guild and Jia. I’d like to talk face-to-face, but if you have a good time… … .”

“I will go right now!”

The scout who hung up the phone hurriedly packed up. As he went out in a suit, he ran into the team leader just in time.

“Why are you leaving my work and where are you going? Are you sure you can finish it today?”

“I just got a call from the manager in charge of Lee Ji-ah! I want to talk to you!”

“Uh, huh?”

“I want to talk about the contract, so I’ll go ahead and talk to you. Baby, you have to go quickly, so get out of the way!”

“That, right? What do you need?”

“No!”

The scout who pushed the team leader hurriedly ran away.

* * *

It has been thirty minutes since I called the Weathering Guild.

When I went out at the sound of the doorbell, the scout was on his knees, trying to catch his breath.

“Heh heh, heh! This is Bae Seong-hyeon from the Weathering Guild I just called.”

“No, are you here already?”

“I can’t make you wait… … Kek!”

I’m out of breath We shook hands lightly and took him to the living room sofa.

The scout took the papers from the briefcase and put them on the table.

“As for the weathering guild, as it is based in the weathering group, it has strong financial advantages… … .”

“The guild’s history is still short, so the ranks of the 2nd Army Hunters are a little low, but time will solve this based on capital… … .”

“Especially, as a ranker, Hunter Lee Ji-ah is the kind of person the weather guild wants, so full support is… … .”

bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla

“──I am confident that there is no better place for Lee Ji-ah to start than the Weather Guild.”

The endless talk has finally come to an end. It was just pointless content.

“Then, shall we get to the point? Talk about the terms of the contract.”

“Yep! Once you see the contract… … .”

In fact, I had already talked to scouts from other companies before contacting Punghwa.

To be sure, the conditions were much better than those suggested by other companies to see if the words that were being said before were nonsense.

“Jia, how are you?”

“yes?”

“It’s a weather condition. what do you think?”

I handed over the contract to Lee Ji-ah.

In the end, it was Lee Ji-ah’s responsibility to make the choice, not me.

At my question, the scout lifted his head and looked at Lee Ji-ah.

“Uh… … .”

Lee Ji-ah, who was worried with a frown, handed the contract to me again.

“I’ll leave it up to Hyeonu-san to judge.”

“What if I pass on such an important choice to someone else?”

“Leave it to me.”

Whoops, the scout’s head is bent like lightning and looks at me. Then the eyeballs will come out.

I made a decision while tapping and tapping the table with my fingers.

“I think it’s good.”

The scout clenched his fists and trembled. It’s too early to like it yet.

“Actually, there is a reason why I contacted a medium-sized guild rather than a large guild.”

“yes?”

We explained our contract terms to the scout who asked in doubt.

“When Hunter Lee Ji-ah enters the dungeon, I must also go in.”

A bewildered scout asks.

“Excuse me, but is the manager also awake?”

“yes.”

The scout sighed in relief.

“Excuse me, but Rank… ?”

“… … F rank.”

F rank.

This is a rank that grouped Awakened people who did not become Hunters.

The scout scratched the back of the head.

It was a face that did not understand English.

“Why does the manager have to go into the dungeon?”

Licking dry lips, he explained.

If Lee Ji-ah falls apart from me, it can’t be helped because Lee Ji-ah won’t be able to show all of her fighting power, so the scout put a lot of thought into it.

“It’s not something I can decide on, but if that’s the case, I think it’ll be okay. I can escort about one or two 2nd Army Hunters. This is… … I will tell you above.”

“Then we will review the contract and contact you again.”

When I got up from my seat and shook hands, the scout bent over and held my hand.

“please! Please!”

The scout was about to leave with his briefcase, but he patted his head and turned around again.

“Mr. Hyunwoo Kim!”

“yes?”

“I haven’t signed an autograph yet, but I wonder if I’m already excited, but I think I’ll have to tell you in advance. First of all, you have to enter the dungeon as a formal entrance test.”

“ah.”

“It won’t be too difficult for Lee Ji-ah Hunter. Feel free to think. Kim Hyun-woo too!”
