- Volume 2 Episode 16

Jung Daesik left Seol Yu-Ran and Hwang Mi-Gun to their feet and moved on.

In the meantime, I saw a scene where Ki Cheol-min was unharmed.

I was relieved to see that he looked better than anyone else.

Jung Daesik smiled and patted Ki Chul-min on the back.

“Did you survive?”

Ki Cheol-min shrugged his shoulders.

"I survived with a sting. I wondered what would happen when a thorn scorpion sweeps away dealers with a sting..."

Ki Cheol-min chinked at the front of his light.

"Doesn't Jeochi and Kungjjak go well together?"

"Yeah. I was unexpected too."

Ki Chul-min soon put a strange smile on his lips.

"Honestly, I didn't expect to come back with my limbs intact after I went out hunting today. Thanks to that, I made a big contribution. The value of magic stones doesn't seem very high, but magic stones are magic stones. there will be."

When talking about money, Jung Daesik immediately opened his eyes.

"Roughly how much do you think you'll earn?"

At Jung Daesik's question, Ki Chul-min shrugged his shoulders.

"You'll have to get it to know? It's the first time I've stayed until the end of the dungeon raid. I don't get a good feel for it.

"How many tens?"

"Billions, billions, billions."

billions!

Not one billion, not two billion, but several billions!

Jung Daesik gulped and swallowed his dry saliva.

Seeing such Jung Daesik, Ki Chul-min continued.

“As you said, if money is the goal, wouldn’t it be okay to retire after this hunt?”

Ki Chul-min was right.

A few billions of dollars could be enough to buy a decent building.

After that, I will be able to leave the hunter life and live comfortably while receiving monthly rent.

It's something I've never been looking forward to.

Jung Daesik felt strange rather than happy.

It is true that he always wanted to earn money and quit hunting as soon as possible.

But so quickly?

At least for a while... I thought I'd have to work at least a few more months.

In an unexpected situation, the rearranging began.

Jung Daesik helped move the wounded and pave the way for easy entry by the rear squadron with porters.

All the while, the word 'retirement' was floating around in my head.Episode 11. Scout Offer

When I left the dungeon, the air of the real world felt sweet.

It was a damp jungle dungeon, so it was hot and dark all the time.

Outside, the sun was shining and the wind was cool.

As soon as Jung Daesik stepped outside, he took off his hardened aluminum armor that was dirty and dented with his mess.

I threw it on the floor and sat down on the floor, but no one said anything.

Not only that, but all of the crew were enjoying the safe escape from the dungeon.

Hwang Mi-gun urged those crews.

"Come on, come on! If it's a break, let's go to the hotel and do it! Get in the car!"

After the reorganization, the crew got on the Jeep.

After driving for a while, we arrived at a hotel.

Although not very luxurious, it was a resort-type business hotel with a hot spring, suitable for a short break.

Occasionally, the Zodiac raid used to rent after hunting, so the staff ran out and greeted the crew familiarly.

The crew took off their clothes and went into the public bath to wash their sweat, body fluids of all kinds of monsters, and their tired bodies.

Jung Daesik also took a bath with them, changed into the provided T-shirt, and ate at the buffet.

The meal with a glass of beer was amazing.

I ate until my stomach exploded, went straight to my room, and rested on a soft bed.

When I woke up from a deep sleep, most of the regular crew were on their way home.

After only the team leaders remained, I found Jung Daesik, who came down to the lobby to have breakfast.

"Daeshik-san! This is it!"

"Who do you like, Mr. Daeshik?"

While Seol Yu-ran and Hwang Mi-geon were constantly arguing, Park Moo-sik briefly mentioned what happened next.

“Soon, as soon as the appraisal of the resources obtained in the dungeon is finished, the settlement letter will be sent. You can check the contents and choose a settlement method and contact us. Perhaps the scout offer is about that, too. I will suggest."

At the words of Park Moo-sik, Jung Daesik showed a stern look.

Seeing that expression, Park Moo-sik smiled.

"If the head of engineering decides to hire Jung Daesik, I don't know what other conditions he will put forward. The provisional contract I showed you was something I could propose within the scope of my authority. So, wait for the news with an open mind. please give it to me."

Even if he didn't want to join the Zodiac raid, it was a good thing he appreciated himself.

Jung Daesik was polite and greeted his team leaders.

"Thank you. This hunt has been a good experience for me."

"So are we. We hope to see you again soon."

Jung Daesik shook hands with them, had a quick breakfast, then went up to his room to get his gear.

The supplies they received from the Zodiac raid were able to carry them as they were, so they had a lot of luggage.

The reinforced aluminum armor he was wearing alone was quite bulky unless it was mounted on his body.

However, Jung Daesik put all the luggage in the subspace.

The intangible space, a kind of inventory, had tripled in capacity as the store was upgraded.

Thanks to that, I was able to put all of my luggage in it.

Jung Daesik walked out of the hotel wearing the T-shirt he had received from the Zodiac Raid and dragging his slippers.

Then Ki Cheol-min, who was holding a taxi, looked at him puzzledly.

"You, where are you going to throw away your luggage?"

Jung Daesik shrugged his shoulders.

"I've already sent you away. Are you on your way back now?"

"Yeah. I should go get some rest."

He said fiddling with his nose.

"If possible, try to find a way to fix this."

Jung Daesik grinned.

"It doesn't look too bad. It looks like a veteran hunter, but what?"

Ki Chul-min frowned.

"Look at this thing on your face. Does it come out like that?"

Gi Cheol-min, who said that, saw the taxi arriving and packed up his luggage.

And he suddenly hesitated as he was about to get into a taxi.

Something, Jung Daesik seemed to have something to say.

But he didn't think it was necessary, so he left with only one blunt word, "I'm going."

Jung Daesik did not hesitate any more and moved on to him.

Where?

Of course it's a subway station.

"He said to take a few lines from here......"

No matter how many billions of money were expected to come in, Jung Daesik was a public transport even if he died soon.

Wearing a T-shirt bearing the Zodiac Raid's mark, he made his way to the subway station.

* * *

Turrrrr~.

Not long after waiting at the platform, the train arrived.

Jung Daesik got on the train and found a suitable seat.

He had to travel a few more stops to his house and had to change buses, so it was quite a distance.

Jung Daesik, wanting to go there, yawned his mouth open.

Then the boy standing next to him glanced at him.

He kept squinting, wondering what the English was.

I was thinking absurdly that a pheromone that only works for female hunters would be emitted here as well, but the boy cautiously approached her.

"Uh..."

"Yes?"

The boy, who now appears to be at most twenty years old, pointed at Jung Daesik's T-shirt and asked.

"Is this the Zodiac Raid T-shirt?"

"Oh, yes. By the way."

I wondered why she was asking, so I looked up, and the boy flashed her eyes and said:

"Are you a member of the Zodiac raid?"

"Yeah......."

Jung Daesik glanced down the t-shirt naked with the marks of the Zodiac Offensive and scratched the back of his head.

"It's not like that."

The boy widened her eyes.

"No? So, where did you get this T-shirt? Can I get some too? It's my hobby to collect raid goods."

Raid goods?

was there anything like that?

Jung Daesik said with a frown on his face.

"It's not how I got it, I just got it after participating in the hunt as a temporary crew."

At that, the boy opened her mouth wide.

"Yes? This, as a temporary member... Are you a hunter then?"

As soon as the word “hunter” came out, people’s eyes turned to this side.

Except for a few who had earphones in their ears, everyone in the same compartment seemed to be looking at him.

Jung Daesik nodded his head in a very burdensome mood.

"That... But."

"Wow! Ji, really? Are you a real hunter?"

"Yes. What's weird?"

"No, no. It's not like that..."

The boy suddenly started rummaging through her bag.

He is staring at him with an embarrassment, and some people pull out their cell phones and take pictures.

The girls looked over excitedly and whispered, and heard the words "Hunter", "Really?" and "Hunter?"

Being a Hunter is such a surprise.

Bewildered, the boy held out her notebook and pen.

"If it's okay with you, please sign here..."

"Yes? Signs?"

"Yes. I'm a hunter fanatic."

"...But I'm not part of the Zodiac Raid. I've only been with you for a while as a temporary agent."

It seemed that it was not a lie that the boy was a hunter maniac.

Among the dogs, he was particularly interested in the raid, and Jung Daesik recounted the characteristics of the Zodiac raid that even Jung Daesik did not know.

"Even if it's a temporary crew, nobody uses people in Zodiac raids. I know you have to be at least rank 7, and Zodiac raids don't hire people, so there are a lot of current full-time crews who are hired through the temporary crew process. . So, maybe one day you'll become a Zodiac Raider, you know! Future Zodiac Raiders should definitely get their autographs."

"......"

Anyway, he asked me to do it, so there was no reason to hesitate, so Jung Daesik roughly signed it.

The boy nodded her head several times, saying, "Thank you, thank you!"

Jung Daesik gave a rough answer and moved her compartment because the gaze was too heavy.
