Chapter 495 – Outbound Earth (35)
In the awkward atmosphere, Deokgu cautiously opened his mouth first.
“Pretty.”
“Ah, go, thanks- thank you…”
Perhaps it was too embarrassing to be praised, Jihye lowered her head and blushed. That virginal appearance rekindled a fire in Deokgu’s heart.
Deok-gu, who tried to calm the passion that burned deep in her heart, looked at her with her eyes wide open.
“How did this happen?”
“Me, that. Therefore…”
Watching her look at her kanada-hee as if it was difficult to explain, her deok-gu nodded her head as if she understood her roughly.
According to some circumstances, the news of her meeting Ji-hye reached them, and after hearing the news, they met Ji-hye and did this.
I don’t know how he cheated on his ability, but in the end he was tricked by them and came all the way here.
‘Those bitches, see you later.’
Promising to pay back later, Deok-gu looked back at Ji-hye. From makeup, hair care, and jewelry that I didn’t usually do. Everything about her made her shine.
At this moment, she was the main character and idol who shined the most in this restaurant. At least she was like that to Deokgu.
“—I’ll serve you the hors d’oeuvres.”
At that time, Seol, dressed in a maid’s uniform, came over and set food down on the table for the two of them. Ji-hye, who has never been to a restaurant like this, exclaimed a small exclamation when she saw the food placed in front of them.
Wow- weak elasticity. Perhaps the trembling of exclamation was similar to Deokgu’s heartbeat, and Deokgu felt his heart tremble like crazy.
‘Really, why is this?’
Not even Ada, who has never had sex. She was capable of taking women who were more beautiful and in shape than the wisdom in front of her at any time if she wanted to.
So, what was happening now was an irrational thing that shouldn’t have happened from the point of view of common sense. It is as absurd as a person who was calm even after receiving 10 billion won and is happy after earning 100 million.
However, the irrational thing continued to happen every time I saw her smiling face.
“Oh, boss? No, Mr. Deokgu… May I call you?”
“Did they tell me my name too?”
“Yes, oh, that… You also let me know that Mr. Deokgu is the chairman, not the president…”
“Yeah, call me whatever you want.”
“Then, Mr. Deokgu… Can I eat it?”
A face full of anticipation, like a pet dog waiting for permission. Looking at her innocence and her unmatched expression, Deok-gu realized the difference between her and the other beauties one by one.
There was an innocence in her that was not found in sluts who fawn over her money or position, who actually sell her body for her flowers.
Her innocence made her shine. Valued her more than a billion dollars.
Also, not only that…
‘With my own strength… Opportunities I got with all my abilities…’
In the meantime, the women he had embraced were not the women he obtained entirely with his ability. They were women who were obsessed with falling money and status.
Even after coming to Earth, nothing had changed, and there was no woman who could still say that she genuinely loved him.
However, the woman in front of him had a different wisdom.
‘The first woman I ever made.’
It was entirely his choice that Deokgu entered the dungeon that day.
Climbing her dungeon and saving her like that.
The one that made her meet her again and become a member of her party.
All completely his choice. A woman he obtained through his own will and ability.
If he is not happy even after earning 10 billion won, it is because it was not entirely his ability.
If he is happy after earning 100 million, it is because it is entirely his ability.
“It is wisdom.”
“Yes, Mr. Deokgu…”
“You can eat it.”
“Oh, thank you…”
Saying that, Ji-hye, who was about to eat the appetizer in front of her, looked at the many forks, knives, and spoons on the table, and she hesitated as to which one to use first.
Deokgu, who saw her, gave her a slight smile and taught her about restaurant etiquette and basic common sense.
On the pure white paper, he began to paint over his own color.
‘Ah, this.’
It was a feeling that could not be compared to any other success.

The universe trembles at the cry of foreign media. It was scientifically impossible that the universe without an air medium would tremble, but surprisingly, that ‘indescribable fear’ did the impossible.
The waves that flew in the dark energy of the universe hit Dojin’s whole body as it is. Do-jin, who was tired of fighting other foreign media, could not avoid the wave, and Do-jin, who was momentarily incapacitated by the blow that knocked the whole body, had to face the fear that glared at him.
“Keugh-!”
Fear engulfs the whole body. Intense fear entangles even Do-jin’s body, which has become an emotionless knife. While he hesitated for a moment, foreign media flew towards Do-jin.
A gigantic body that causes light distortion just by moving. Something bigger than some planet.
Do-jin realized that this foreign press was not compatible with him. It was because I realized that this huge monster was so big that it wouldn’t matter if I had to cut it thousands of times.
“Brie.”
─Kwaaaaang-!
But he wasn’t alone. The moment Do-jin calls his name, a huge wolf runs through space. The wolf, big enough to devour the planet, swallowed the foreign press in one bite.
Chaotic water.
The beast of the end, a wolf that devours planets.
This monster, which broke through the limits and grew up, ruthlessly bit the foreign press targeting the nest where I live.
─Grrrruk… !
Seeing the flesh of the foreign press torn to pieces and torn into tens of thousands, Dojin carefully drew his sword. The moment the sparkling sword light emanated from his blade, the tens of thousands of divided pieces of flesh disappeared in an instant.
Do-jin, who blocked the foreign press, let out a deep sigh and lay down in space. Bree, who has become as small as a wolf cub, approaches him.
─Kiiiiing…
“Nice job, Bree.”
─Dad, I think this is broken. My stomach is bloated…
“… If you can’t stand it, throw up.”
─I’ll be patient…
Bree, who had swallowed foreign media and complained of nausea, soon digested the foreign media and then started to burp. Do-jin, who was patting Bree on the back, felt the energy of a foreign press flying far away and began to warm up.
“Is that the end…”
The distance is far. It’s flying from a distance that exceeds several years and tens of light years. Even though foreign media say that they are flying at speeds exceeding the speed of light, easily breaking away from physical limitations—a long distance that will take several hours to several days.
However, Dojin wanted to take a break. Except for the foreign press flying in right away, there was no foreign press approaching within tens of thousands of light-years, so we should be able to enjoy our vacation for a while.
“Okay, let’s try.”
Do-jin, who slightly raised his body, set the angle so that it was in line with the foreign press flying in from afar. And then, he took care that there were no planets or stars to be swept into its orbit.
Several stars were caught in the sword, but there was no time to pay attention to the stars that were several light years away. After praying to the stars in his heart, Do-jin carefully gripped his sword.
“Death.”
Seongsin Ilgwangseom 星辰一光閃.
The light flashed, and Do-jin, who had swung the sword, stretched his arms and fell down. The planet’s gravity was slowly pulling him down.
“Ahh… I’m dying…”
-Dad, let’s go together-.
“Oh, Bree… Yes, let’s go together…”
Bree, who was hugged by Do-jin while acting aegyo, carefully looked at his back.
As if it had been erased with an eraser, a black empty space had appeared in the universe.
Far away, over several light years, the twinkling stars disappear.
It all happened at once with Dojin’s knife.
‘As expected, yet…’
It was a long way from following his dad. Bree, who fell to the planet with a roaring roar, thought so in the arms of his father.

“Mr. Deok-gu…”
“Just call me brother. Two years apart.”
“Ah, can I? Brother is…”
Deok-gu, who naturally let go of his words, chatted with Ji-hye while flirting. It was mainly about his company.
Fantasia. In other words, the only company on Earth that sells otherworldly goods. It wasn’t that other companies didn’t sell magic items, but given the difference in performance between smartphones and folder phones, it was extremely rare for products from other companies to be sold.
“How did you create a company called Fantasia?”
“Well, by chance…”
“How can I make it… ?”
As much as she was working as a hunter, Ji-hye showed great interest in Fantasia. Fantasia’s magical items were of great help in hunting in dungeons.
“Ah-! So, is the ability you used while hunting also a magic tool?”
“That’s right.”
“Wow… I heard that there are no magic tools that can be used in battle yet…”
“You can make it.”
“Did you make it yourself!?”
In an instant, Deokgu became a genius magician who created magic tools that others couldn’t even make, but he didn’t deny it himself. He was a man’s bravado.
Ji-hye, who knows nothing, just praises Deok-gu, and Deok-gu, who is in a good mood, goes up in an infinite chain of compliments.
A situation where alcohol goes in smoothly and the story comes out full. As he drank the wine that Seol had poured him into, Deok-gu secretly felt that Ji-hye was a very wise woman.
‘Normal women would have urged me by now.’
Knowing that he was the president of Fantasia, women often asked him for a magic tool for free, or asked him to make a magic item they wanted.
Was it a mindset that it would be good if it didn’t work? There were many cases where she got angry after making such a ridiculous request, but Ji-hye never rushed to ask Deok-gu for something even when her face was red from alcohol.
If it was instinctive, she was a very pure woman, and if it was controlled by reason, she was a very wise woman. Either way, it means that she is a woman not to be missed.
‘I want to catch… I want to make mine…’
Had she ever desired so much? She swears that she has never experienced it in her life. She wanted her She wanted to dye it her own color.
As her desire soared to the top of her head, her sanity began to fly away. As a result, the distinction between what to say and what not to say becomes increasingly blurred.
“… Ji-hye, why did you become a Hunter?”
“Yes? Ah… Is it so. Now that I know your secret, it should be fair for you to know one too… ?”
After listening to Deokgu’s question, she pondered for a while, pouring out the wine she was holding in her hand at once to quench her dry throat, then carefully opened her mouth.
“The business is ruined. Dad’s doing…”
“… Ah.”
Common if common, rare if rare. Only then did Deokgu know the reason for the purity felt in her wisdom. Seeing that she was the daughter of a noble family, she lived a life of being very pretty when she was young.
At first glance, she feels innocent, but she must have grown to be pampered.
“After that, she went out drinking every day, and her mother, who saw her, lay down in shock… I became the head of household overnight, so I had to do something. I don’t know what to do…”
“Hunter work must have been dangerous.”
“So anyone can do it. Men and women of all ages, I won’t stop anyone who wants to do it.”
Dungeon is a next-generation new energy business, but at the same time, it was a mine that had to be mined entirely by human power, with no room for machine power.
Then, there was a saying that it would be okay to put in soldiers, but since it was not possible to push in the soldiers who were forcibly recruited, the NCOs and officers just got discharged and chose to work as hunters.
It was because I had the idea that if I had to risk my life to work anyway, I would earn more money.
In this way, magic stone mining had to be left entirely in the hands of civilians, but the government actually turned its eyes away from regulating hunters because the people were short of energy to use right away.
“Is it so…”
“Yes, what. Thanks to that, I can make money like this, and my father is slowly receiving treatment for alcoholism. In a way, everything is good.”
“Come to think of it—why did it fail?”
“Ahaha, that’s why the business goes bankrupt.”
Ji-hye smiled shyly and explained why her father’s business failed.
“My father’s company was mainly a supplier to China, but why- China went bankrupt? The delivery destination has gone bankrupt, so we have no choice.”
“… What?”
Deok-gu, who was sniffing wine, stopped for a moment and glared at Ji-hye. Ji-hye looked at Deok-gu with a puzzled face as if she had done something wrong.
But it wasn’t that she did something wrong with her that made her dukgu surprised.
‘Because China disappeared, the business went bankrupt?’
That’s because she said that the reason her father’s business failed was because of Do-jin.
