Jung Daesik headed to her mansion to meet Choi Hee, returning her car while the Fenrir troops were preparing to depart for Russia.

He actually contacted him if he would come to the airfield to meet the Fenrir troops, but there was no reply.

It seems that there will be a change of position, so we should talk about going to Russia.

When I parked past the gorgeous gate and garden and got out of the car, Choi Choi, not Choi Hee, came out to meet me.

"Mr. Jung Daesik."

"Mr. Choi."

The best's face clouded with concern. When she saw her face darkened, she had already guessed what Choi Hee would make. Unsurprisingly, Choi Seon said with a desperate expression on his face.

"Mr. Jung Daesik, I don't know if you've already heard..."

"Yeah. It's about the lighthead."

"I've heard rumors that he has the ability to destroy omens. Is that true?"

"I'm sorry, but it's true."

“Then, until we find a way to neutralize that person, isn’t it that we can’t fight anyone? If we make a mistake, we could lose all of our abilities. Besides, I have four 7-star weapons.”

"Yes."

"Nevertheless, her older sister seems to want to compete with him. Even if I try to stop her, she doesn't pay attention to whether she has already made up her mind. Jung Daesik, please persuade her."

Jung Daesik said, doing his best to almost cry.

"Even so, I came here because of that. Where is Choi Hee?"

"She goes up to the second floor."

Jung Daesik handed over her car keys to Choi and walked up to her. As I climbed up the stunning marble staircase that surrounded her mansion in a semicircle and went up to the second floor, I saw a space decorated like a drawing room.

Choi Hee was sitting on the white chamoud sofa, wearing a comfortable indoor coat, to the point of worrying about what to ask.

With her face looking a little drowsy, Choi Hee stood up from her seat and she greeted Jung Daesik.

"I'm sorry I couldn't get my clothes on."

"No. Rather than that, you didn't get a call from me?"

"No, I got it, but somehow my condition was bad..."Her face without makeup was unbelievably pale. Jung Daesik reached out and touched her forehead with a worried expression.

When her bare skin touched her palm, she wanted to miss it, but Choi Hee did not refuse the hand. She rather leaned against her forehead, and on the contrary, Jung Daesik's face began to turn red.

"Your hands are cool."

"...I think I have a fever."

"I must have been a little overworked to fight the Immortal Trio or whatever."

"Is it too much? You're only competing with those little ones?"

Jung Daesik took the right stance on her words and Choi Hee gave her true color.

"They may be kids, but they were excellent in their natural abilities. If they gain experience and skills, I don't know how much they will grow. It's a team made up only of people carefully selected by the PCC, isn't it?"

“It may be, but I didn’t know that such a word would come out of your mouth.”

Choi Hee smiled weakly.

“I am not invincible.”

"That's right. So let's go with me."

It seems she already knew what Jung Daesik was going to say. She knew that Jung Daesik had turned down his request to protect the state treasury, and since all Fenrir troops had returned, it would have been hard to guess that he was planning something else. Perhaps he received some remarks from Kang Young-hoo.

She didn't know what route she was going to take, but she didn't answer Jung Daesik's words, Choi Hee, and she was silent. Jung Daesik suddenly grabbed her hand and said,

"You don't have to go out of your way to stop the gangster. It's inevitable that the quests in the national treasury will be taken away. Rather, it's more urgent to protect the 7-star weapons that Durahhan has and to equip ourselves with our own strength. "

At Jung Daesik's persuasive words, Choi Hee let out a sigh of laughter. She and she took her hand from Jung Daesik's, she said.

"Regardless of what you think, the government has no intention of giving away the 7-star weapon. Five of the hunters already in the top rankings have been selected as executioners."

Jung Daesik's eyes widened.

"The enforcer?"

"Yeah. Since the gang leader has revealed his true nature, it must mean that he doesn't look at the situation and will arrest him unconditionally. Things might have been different if you had set out to stop the gang leader, but once you were rejected, the somewhat coercive method of being an executor was adopted. I'm trying to stop the lighthead even by mobilizing."

"The executive position is..."

"It is impossible to refuse. Realistically, even if you refuse, there is little to do, but legally you will be guilty of a crime. You will be expelled from the Awakened General Federation and the Hunter Association, and all aid from the state will be cut off. Your assets will be frozen."

Choi Hee said with a bitter smile.

"Once you've been nominated as an executor, you have to pretend you're doing your job. Ignoring it isn't very wise."

Jung Daesik bit his lip.

"But you are also a member of my unit. As the person in charge of the unit, I will protest strongly."

"It's useless. The duty of the enforcer is something that the Awakened can't avoid."

"Obligation? Fuck you! Ignore that!"

Jung Daesik, dismayed in various ways by recent events, blushed. However, Choi Hee had to take a different position with him.

She is the best hunter in Korea, even called a superstar, and is a public figure loved by many people.

Choi Hee calmly sang Jung Daesik.

"Captain."

"......what."

"I'm speaking as Kim Tae-hee, a member of the Fenrir unit. As of today, I will leave the Fenrir unit."

"what?"

Jung Daesik widened his eyes. He didn't want to be angry, but he tried to get angry. Jung Daesik kept her mouth shut as Jung Daesik was suppressing her emotions, and Choi Hee took the time to speak.

"Actually, it is as if there is no such person as Kim Tae-hee. As Choi Hee, I am not a member of the Titan raid, so I cannot become a member of the Fenrir unit.

"Wait a minute. There was a purpose for you to join the Fenrir unit even pretending to be Kim Tae-hee."

Jung Daesik hurriedly recalled his past.

"Weren't you trying to find a way to be strong by my side?"

"Yeah. That's what I meant. But looking back, I think that was some kind of excuse."

"An excuse?"

"I wanted to create a reason to be by your side."

Choi Hee smiled at Jung Daesik, who was bewildered.

"I've been in denial all this time, but now I have to admit it. You are special to me. I don't know if that's rational or if it's an attraction and longing for an unknown strong person. It's because the feelings you have for you are complicated to think only between a man and a woman."

Jung Daesik licked his lips. I thought I should say something, but I didn't know what to say.

However, Choi Hee's expression was very accurate. So did Jung Daesik's feelings for her.

Since she was simply viewed as a woman, her presence was too intense. She had a mixture of longing and adoration, envy and incomprehension, as can be seen from the appearance of Choi Hee as Jung Daesik's most feared opponent when she fought Asmodeus.

While Jung Daesik was wandering, unable to find what to say, her expression changed for Choi Hee.

She erased the soft feelings she had for Jung Daesik, revealing her life like a beast that preyed upon her prey.

Then her radiant face turned as cold as her ice cubes, and the air around her froze in an instant.

"But I don't want to be swayed by that feeling. With a strong man named Gwangpil-doo in front of me, I have to fight him now."

Jung Daesik felt his heart pounding and asked."Are you saying you're going to fight with Kwangpildu...?"

Choi Hee lifted her lips to reveal her teeth.

"Isn't that normal?"

She had scorching eyes and shuddered like a person with a fever.

"Gwangpil-doo has a different strength from you. It's the ability to destroy supernatural powers... It's an unheard of ability."

Jung Daesik said hastily.

"If you make a mistake, you could lose all of your abilities! You mean you need to take that risk and fight the madman? At least after some preparation..."

“If you are growing without limits, you may be right in what kind of preparation you need to prepare. But I am not.”

Choi Hee let out a sigh.

"What do you think is the reason I'm so eager to get stronger as I dig into your secrets?"

"that......."

"My growth has already stopped. I've already reached my peak and haven't been able to achieve anything since. I don't know if I've gleaned any hope from you... For now, I want to focus on the enemy right in front of me."

Choi Hee seemed to have already made a decision. There was no tremor in her eyes, and it felt strongly that she would not be able to convince her by anything she said. Still, she couldn't back down, so Jung Daesik mentioned a promise he wasn't sure about.

"It's possible for me. I can raise your abilities stronger than they are now. Have you seen the case of the Fenrir troops? That's a story that applies to you too! Sooner or later, we can find a more efficient way to train you!"

Choi Hee shook her head.

"I don't want training. I want to be strong."

"Fighting the madman doesn't make you stronger, it's your own risk!"

When Jung Daesik shouted like that, Choi Hee made a strange expression. As if Jung Daesik didn't know anything, his expression was mixed with a faint rebuke.

"I'm not just talking about improving body functions, increasing the amount of magic power, or its efficiency. I'm talking about the strength that can only be acquired by crossing the dead line against an enemy who surpasses me."

Jung Daesik was speechless this time around.

Jung Daesik knew nothing of such strength. He still thought that the hunters who wanted to become stronger by throwing away their wealth and honor were foolish, and he was also vaguely aware of the hunter's duties and responsibilities.

Everything he wanted to do was related to the achievement of one's self, not for intangible values ​​that could not be seen with the naked eye. As a result, he could not fully understand Choi Hee, and he lacked words to persuade her.

Jung Daesik shut his mouth, and Choi Hee smiled as if to appease him.

"If I fight the Gwangpildu and win, I'd like to do that training."

Jung Daesik got heartbroken and spat out words that he shouldn't have said.

"That's a benefit that can only be given to my subordinates. I don't know if it's Kim Tae-hee..."

Choi Hee just smiled and didn't say anything. Jung Daesik, in his heart, expected that he would say that he would return to the Fenrir unit again at a later date. But she didn't say it until the end, and Jung Daesik was forced to leave the mansion, losing one of his troops.
