Episode 26
“……Where is he and what is he doing?”
‘Why are you chatting on KakaoTalk in the middle of a meeting?’
There is not even any intention to hide it.
My “Babylon”, is it really okay like this?
Sa Se-jong, the vice-guild leader of Babylon, coughed in vain, leaving behind the familiar doubts.
“Let’s focus.”
“Barb… If there’s a Barb with Yoon’s book, it’s ‘Invibe’. Isn’t that the Twilight Mountain?”
To the words of the historian, Domi, who was trimming his fingernails, responded.
“That’s right. It used to be a huge guild, but it completely went under and the scavengers at the bottom were just stealing from each other, and then the Night Food King swallowed it up. Anyway, that guy really eats well.”
“You’re like a gangster with no basis.”
“Let’s focus……”
“They’re not thugs, they’re gangsters, Young Boss. They’re considered international, too.”
“They’re just gangsters after all.”
“concentration……”

Bad trash
I don’t know, don’t worry
Aren’t you at an academy? Don’t you have classes?
After typing loudly on the keyboard, Kyeonjirok blew his bangs.
“Why did the dog fail?”
“You’re still young, our leader. Don’t you know about this famous incident? Why, back in the old days, you ignored your Hunter duties and disappeared during the large-scale crack incident. It must have been that time. The nightmare of March, Month……”
Oops.
Domi, who realized his mistake while speaking, quickly shut his mouth.
Everyone in the conference room’s attention turns to one side.
But the young boss’s face had already turned cold.
The air in the room became heavy in an instant.
The ‘forest’ has two sides: it can make anyone feel comfortable, but on the other hand, it can also become gloomy at any time.
The covenant of the record of the ark is also cruel and unrivaled wherever it goes.
The scent of greenery surrounding the area is refreshing.
Sasejong sighed and naturally changed the subject.
“It’s certainly a shame for Yoon-seo to rot away in a place like ‘Invibe’. After all, she’s a rare tamer.”
“……”
“There are only two ranker-level tamers in the world: Guido Maramaldi and Yun Ui-seo. So I tried stabbing them through Headhunter before, but it didn’t work. I think there must be some reason. Why you all of a sudden?”
“……Who said that.”
“Who is what? It’s probably my older sister again.”
Sasejong snorted. It was a joke that made fun of Siscom.
A pointless excuse for nitpicking.
I smelled the refreshing scent again and, as expected, the sea bream joined in.
A chance to freshen up the atmosphere!
“Oh, come back. You ran away from home, but you’re back? Even though it’s an aristocratic art school, why did you have to go through all that trouble to take the entrance exam three times? You must have a lot of money and a successful younger sibling. Why don’t you just play?”
“Okay. He’s just making his mom’s dream come true.”
“Really? You’re such a filial daughter.”
“……Even though Gyeonjio lives thoughtlessly, he does think about his family a bit.”
Bambi, who had become gentle, nodded in agreement.
As times have become more difficult and many things have been replaced by magic, the status of art, which is entirely the domain of ‘people’, has also risen.
There’s a reason it’s called the aristocratic art school.
Mrs. Park and Jiona were both insisting on being there for each other.
The eyes of Gyeonjirok deepen as he thinks of the two women.
“Your sister’s name is Geo… Wow, I’m not the only one hearing that name for the first time, am I? Did everyone else know?”
“No way. How much do you care for her that you don’t show her your face even once? I think I’ve seen my younger sister Geum-hee a few times here and there, but I’ve never even seen my older sister.”
“Well, if Young Boss is your older sister, she must be really pretty. She’s tall and slender, so you’d be wary.”
A neck stretched out like a deer.
A note of long curly hair covering him and a mole on his lips.
The youngest, Kyeon Geum-hee, is also like that.
The Kyeon siblings they saw had model-like bodies and a mature, almost brainwashing aura.
But something is wrong again, and the impression on Gyeonjirok is distorted.
“Don’t pay attention because you don’t look alike at all. Why do you keep bringing up other people’s families? Don’t you have anything to do? Don’t you have meetings?”
Oh, yes……
It’s like the whims of a dirty powerful person…
Bambi, who was in violent mode, ignored the guild members with rotten expressions and turned his arrows towards Sasejong.
“Brother. Why are you stabbing the guy under the twilight? I don’t want to get involved with those punks, so don’t do something like that again.”
“Yoon Ui-seo is a bit different. He definitely doesn’t have a low-level personality. Well, if you don’t like him, I’ll put up with it… But you really need to supplement your personnel, so you’re going to go that far, right, boss? Then please focus on the meeting.”
The back of Sasejong’s hand tapped the monitor.
“This season, Baek Do-hyun and Na Jo-yeon. You absolutely have to catch one of the two super rookies.”
Hmm. Kyeonjirok crossed his arms and checked the two people’s profiles.
‘Baek Do-hyun, Baek Do-hyun… It’s a strangely familiar name.’
“The chief is Baek Do-hyeon?”
“According to sources on Mars, it seems to be S-class.”
“Okay, then. Catch this guy.”
“Najoyeon is a specialized class for sexual power. I estimate that she is at least A-class or AA-class or higher. Should I think about it a little more?”
“That guy is good at using a sword? Since the purpose is to strengthen the power, it’s better to go with the dealer. The current members are sufficient for healers. Focus on this guy……”
Tiring.

Hunter Gyeonjirok, can you spare me a moment? If it’s alright, I have something I’d like to talk about.
‘I wondered why you didn’t come.’
The world’s number one national flag has been changed to the Taegeukgi. This is something that cannot remain still, no matter where you go.
As he left the conference room, Kyeon Ji-rok pressed the call button without hesitation.
The recipient is a criminal.
Who are you saying that players should step forward to fight in the front line?
A snake on that side, a snake on this side. This was the basic setting at the negotiation table.
* * *
The pain of fame is like a rite of passage for rankers.
Especially the heavenly realm.
It was even worse for higher rankers with less exposure.
In the case of the most famous and least known ‘Joe’, it goes without saying.
Starting with the North Korean defector theory, he might be a criminal, a hairy uncle, a mother, an alien, a bioweapon, a Joseonjok, the Joker, a zombie, John Wick, etc.
There is hardly a word that has not been heard.
The speculation about its identity is almost at the level of the Tripitaka Koreana at Haeinsa Temple.
It’s not that Geo doesn’t know that either, he’s even participated in a few battles.

I’m a 20-something ranker, and all my peers call me a cute, sexy, cool, and beautiful fairy.

I retreated only after realizing the bloody brutality of the online battlefield.
From then on, I lived with the mindset of a liberated Tibetan fox, with mountains being mountains and water being water.
“Now, the evidence.”
‘Kangjae, you are truly a concubine.’
Geo, who was changing the water jug, sighed heavily.
Optimus, a social evil, has even included practical classes in the curriculum, showing how much he intends to exploit.
Today was the first day of that class.
As a test of my skills, I was told to draw a self-portrait of the Magic King using the ‘Hunter’ material as a free concept…
I’m already in a bad mood right now because I’ve heard compliments saying that the monster’s hideousness is very realistic.
“Ugh… I didn’t want to say that, but if you find out who I am, you’ll really flip out… Huh?”
‘Huh, huh?’
Geo snatched it from Yoon Kang-jae’s hand.
When I looked up in surprise, Yoon Kang-jae crossed his arms in high spirits.
“See. I told you it was true. Am I right? Seo Ga-hyun doesn’t even know that I didn’t show her because she was afraid of annoying my hyung. Damn it.”
“……Where did you get this from?”
“What do you believe in that you’re telling me? Don’t you think so? You’ve gone too far, sister. You only believe a dog’s words……”
“hey.”
“……”
“I asked where it came from.”
Without realizing it, Yoon Kang-jae felt his body stiffen.
I couldn’t move. My legs started shaking like an aspen tree.
The shadows of the building grew darker.
There is the face of Gyeonjio obscured at an angle.
No matter what was said, his characteristic expressionless face remained the same…
[Your Covenant, the Reader of Fate, whispers to you to calm down.]
[It may look similar at first glance, but I gently recommend that you take a second look as it is clearly a fake.]
‘Huh? No?’
Geo stepped out of the shade and looked toward the window.
Black dragon scales.
That’s definitely right…… Ah.
‘That’s right. That’s not Nidhogg.’
When the sunlight reflects, it takes on a rainbow hue rather than being pitch black like a flame.
It’s like forcibly applying lacquer to a mother-of-pearl shell.
but……
Come to think of it, who would dare touch their dragon nesting in the library?
Geo flicked it away with an insincere hand, as if nothing had happened.
“What, is it your brother’s?”
“……yes yes.”
“Why are you suddenly using formal language? You were always using informal language.”
“Is that so?”
“I thought dragons were only for me, but they’re quite interesting. Have you ever seen one?”
“Not often, but once or twice… Huh? Yes? What did you just say…?”
“I originally wanted the red dragon of the Apocalypse, but my proficiency was lacking. Nidhogg was the limit. I think that one was nerfed as well. I’ve had it since I was little, so I’ve been able to use it quite a bit, and it’s cute.”
It’s like someone bragging about their own dog.
Yoon Kang-jae has no clue whether it’s a joke or serious. Geo snickers.
“Why, is this your first time seeing ‘Joe’? I thought you had one at home too?”
“……Ah, haha. No, you’re joking. I was surprised again.”
“Seriously. Geo, Joe. It’s just so simple. Don’t you get it?”
“Ah, sis! Stop joking around. You have such a blank expression on your face that I feel like I’m really being fooled.”
Then, Yoon Kang-jae makes a fuss and offers to carry the water jug instead.
Geo stares blankly at the back of the person walking ahead. He slowly taps the ground.
[Title trait, ‘Dragon Fear (Legend)’ is disabled.]
At the same time, outside the criminal’s field of vision.
The dragon’s shadow that had been covering the entire area quietly subsided beneath the ground.
A guide to proper living for rankers.
