Could that be possible?

President Kim confirmed Woo’s true intentions and answered without even turning his head. "Well, of course, the Hunters should do their job.”

Watching the nervous president repeatedly nod his head, Woo Jin-chul stood up from his seat. But

Even after Woo Jin-cheol left, the president and the prime minister could not stand up for a while.

“..”

“..”

They realized how scary the hunters were.

* * *

"Did anything good happen at work today?”

In the departing car, Woo Jin-chul told the person in the driving seat.

“It looks like that”

"Yes, sir."

The staff is also supervised and staffed.

Woo Jin-chul smiled pleasantly as he recalled his young years by watching the young guard and his juniors.

For the first time he had to do the same things as the first hunter association president.

Woo Jin-chul leaned his back against the chair where Go Gun-hee, the head of the association, used to sit.

And in this invisible place, he remembered that many people hated the president for what he did for the hunters.

‘...Thank god.’

He was used to that hate thanks to his fierce eyes and large build.

If that's part of the job of the president of the association, he would gladly take it.

He was already quite prepared for it when he decided to sit here on behalf of Go Gun-hee.

"Where shall I take you?"

"To... the Association"

He wished he could go home, but he still had mountains of work to finish.

"Then that’s where we’ll go."

As if the driver knew what Woo was feeling, he accelerated.

The car carrying the two people quickly passed the blue house.

How much time has passed?

He looked out the window after he woke up.

He saw an endless amount of cars on the road.

No matter how crowded the roads in Seoul were, traffic was never this bad on weekdays. ‘Has yet another gate opened up in the middle of the road?’ Woo Jin-chul's anxious eyes quickly scanned the surroundings.

And to put it simply, there was something unusual going on.

Why did all the drivers get out of their cars and why were they looking at the sky?

No, it weren’t only the drivers.

The pedestrians as well.

Even the driver in the front seat was looking up.

‘What the hell?’

The surprised Woo Jin-chul grabbed the drivers shoulder.

"That, president of the association"

The driver said with a shaking body and trembling voice, as he pointed to the top of the windshield.

Woo Jin-chul's face hardened.

Did he see it wrong?

No, then, there is no reason for everyone to look at the sky with the same expression.

However, Woo, who did not want to believe what he saw, jumped out of the car onto the road just like the other drivers did.

His eyes weren’t deceiving him.

Woo Jin-chul's face, looking up at the sky, was filled with awe.

"How... How could this happen?"

* * *

He was satisfied with the result of the test.

Jin-woo's footsteps on the way back were light.

[Ber] had become stronger.

Far more than he had expected.

Unfortunately, [Igrit] wasn’t able to be promoted yet. But Ber’s promotion alone was an excellent result.

The other hunters probably can’t keep their mouths shut at the sight of the dungeon.

Jin Woo laughed as he imagined the look on Cha Hae-in’s face.

He wanted to talk more but  unfortunately he had guests waiting for him.

Jin Woo was worried about both Thomas and Renat Neermann. And contacted Thomas first.

He could guess Renat’s intentions, because without warning the world’s second ranked hunter came looking for him. But he had no idea what that hunter was thinking.

The phone was quickly connected.

“Hunter Sung!”

Thomas also poured out a bit of haste this time to see if he could speak to Jin-woo.

“I brought  a gift for you, hunter Sung.”

“A gift?

No, if there was something like that you would have called first.”

Said Jin Woo in a half joke half-truth way.

For a moment  it was silent.

Then Thomas said in a subdued voice.

“I am glad that hunter Sung  is expecting that.  So where should we meet? I would like to

hand over my

gift.”

“Anywhere  convenient.”

“Hunter Sung, could you come this way then? There are many ways in which they are dangerous to

carry around.”

Jin Woo was puzzled for a moment. He then accepted the invitation and hung up. ‘It’s not a bomb, is it?’

Of course not, If it was for a nation level hunter it would be more effective to run a bomb into than let it explode.

But by the words of [Ber] he came to regret not asking what kind of gift it was.

“My lord”

“huh?”

“May I fight the foreigner once?”

“……”

Jin Woo, who had been thinking for quite a while now, shook his head.

‘What am I thinking’

He wondered how much [Ber] had grown up, but he could not get into a fight with Thomas.

He didn’t want Thomas to be hurt nor [Ber] to be destroyed. If those two confronted each other they won’t come off with just a scratch.

‘And yet….’

Being able to worry like this was evidence of [Ber]’s growth. Because of [Ber]’s tone he felt a strong desire to test it himself. “[Ber]”

“Yes, my lord?”

“Don’t be too hasty, the time to test your new strength will come soon enough” “I will keep that in mind”

“And can you turn down the TV drama’s. You seem to talk more and more every day.”

“I will obey the lords orders.”

“Just say yes, yes, yes, yes sir.”

“Yes.”

Good.

He had told [Ber] everything he wanted to say and happily headed to the meeting place with Thomas.

*  * *

“Oh, hunter Sung! You have no idea how long I have waited for this moment.”

Thomas greeted Jin Woo who visited his room.

From when he heard Jin Woo needed a dagger.

Thomas had been waiting for the best weapon in the guild’s inventory to be delivered to Jin Woo’s hands.

It’s not for just any reason that he would travel to such a distant foreign land. How would the best hunter in the world react to seeing those two?

When Thomas’ collided the bodyguards came out with a box covered with cloth.

Jin Woo, who did not need anything, but his eyes became sharper as he got closer to the bodyguards.

“what….?”

*Woong, uwoo woong*

Something in the box was resonating with magic power.

Thomas, who caught the change of expression on Jin Woo’s face, clasped his fists inside. ‘Yes!’

Hunter Sung Jin-woo is a weapon, weapon is his master.

There was a moment where Thomas felt that they would recognize each other.

Perhaps these guys [referring to the gift] were holding their breath, in the dark storage room of the

Scavenger guild, just for this moment.

*Tuk*

The box was placed on a table between Thomas and Jin Woo. “This is a reward given to Hunter Sung, from me and my guild.”

Thomas grabbed the edge of the cloth covering the box and carefully peeled it off.

*thrush*

The cloth slipped and the contents of the box were revealed.

A transparent case with a clear view of the interior.

Inside , there were two daggers embedded in huge scales.

‘No, can that even be called a dagger?’

Jin Woo was suspicious.

The two daggers were shorter than swords, but longer than regular daggers.

But it was not the length that caught his eye.

The blade, snow-white of colour.

A dagger made of a non-metal material that Jin Woo was not familiar with.

‘Kasaka’s dog tooth’, which was acquired for the first time in his life.

Jin Woo remembered that the daggers in front of him were made of some kind of teeth.

And there was only one thing that could emit this kind of energy.

Karmish.

‘Just a glance at these items and he could guess the materials’ Jin Woo’s guess was right.

But there was a question that came up with it. “Karmish’ body is kept by the hunter bureau, isn’t it?”

“According to the will of the US government to transfer the body, we decided to give up.” Thomas laughed at the thought of the raid.

“But one of Karmish’ greatest and sharpest fangs was pulled out and given to me as a souvenir.”

The problem, however, is that no one could produce weapons of the items dropped by the dragon.

Only one person could.

But now the artisan, who produced two masterpieces has died of old age, so no more weapons of the dragons remain could be made, Thomas added.

“At that time , the length of the fangs was a little too short for a sword, but it would be helpful as a dagger.”

Thomas’ face was clear while telling the story.

Slowly removing the case, Thomas pushed the scales of the dagger upside down towards Jin Woo.

“And now it’s yours.”

The best weapon met its master.

Calming his trembling heart, Thomas looked at Jin Woo’s reaction.

Jin Woo picked up the dagger.

Smoothed.

The dagger was pulled out lightly as if it had been waiting for this moment.

A bell rang

As soon as the dagger was drawn, Jin Woo swallowed at the sound of the system.

Soon the detailed stats of the dagger would come to his eyes.

“what?”

Jin Woo did not believe his eyes.

He, surprised by the absurd stats, had called the [Devil King’s Dagger], which he had been using as his

main weapon, for comparison.

Item: [Devil King’s Dagger]

Difficulty obtaining: S

Type: Dagger

Attack power: +220

It is a dagger obtained from the demon king Baran. If you use two [Devil King’s Dagger] at the same time, the set effect is applied.

Set effect: ‘Two in one’. The attack power of the daggers is increased by the strength stat of the user.

The attack power goes well over 500 if his strength stat of 300 is added.

He used to think that this set effect was enough to use.

But the dagger is as good as its ability.

Jin Woo, who was comparing the two daggers, had malicious thoughts pop up. ‘….Is that what you mean?
