Chapter 79 – Clan (2)

After much hesitation, she finally left her cafe. She was a little puzzled when she waited for a long interview and saw her go out as this would be the best place for her.

‘I wouldn’t be short of money if I was a hunter… What was his ability?’

She knew her face because she mainly looked at pictures of applicants, but couldn’t remember her awakening ability.

She decided to go up a bit and check it out, and walked over to the counter.

“Welcome! This is Honey Cafe!”

Looking at the interior, it was a neat and pleasant cafe. I felt like I spent some money, but it was luxurious.

There were dozens of tables alone. It was a spacious cafe, but it was not even half full.

There were only a few male customers, to say the least. All of them were alone and fiddling with their smartphones.

There were no people.

‘Of course it’s filthy expensive.’

Honestly, if it wasn’t for the cafe in his building, I would have just left.

‘First… Let’s taste it.’

“I will help you order.”
“A glass of iced Americano, please.”

A woman in her mid-to-late 20s with ample breasts was smiling kindly. She was the proprietress of this cafe.

‘It looks like all the men gathered to see this woman, but I don’t know if they know she’s married.’

According to Dasomi, who conducted her contract, her newlyweds opened a cafe. She also wore a ring on her left ring finger, which was visible at first glance.

The married woman was right.

I sat down in her place and looked at her. She was wearing a cafe uniform, one that barely exposed her thighs.

Overall, it was a neat outfit. There was almost no exposure, but it was tightly tightened, revealing the body as it was.

‘Did you mean it?’

The men seemed to have come because of that uniform and figure. Without them, the cafe would have been ruined a long time ago.

“I got a cup of iced Americano~”

A married woman with a bright expression said in a high tone. Her voice itself was nice to hear.

“Enjoy your meal~”

She decided to sit down and taste it. It was written that she used high-quality ingredients. It could have been amazingly delicious.

‘Coffee will be there, but…’

Jjook

‘Kek..!’

I almost spit it out in an instant. Her tongue tingled It is normal for coffee to taste bitter. This was severe.

It had almost no scent and was just bitter, so it felt like a tasteless herbal medicine. At first, it tasted burnt.

I put a lot of syrup in it, so it was edible, but I put it down after one or two bites.

‘I’ll be ruined soon… I can’t do dirty business.’

I noticed that the male customers sitting there were not even drinking coffee. Glancing at her, only the married woman boss was stealing a glance.

Yes, it doesn’t matter if the rent is flat, but I had an intuition that this couple would go bankrupt sooner or later.

‘Couldn’t it be that the rent will be delayed…?’

***

Most of the clan’s work is done by Han So-young, the vice-clan leader.

She rummaged through her papers and greeted her Siu.

“I’m here? Look at this. These are the documents for this week’s applicants.”

She said as Siu picked up a piece of paper.

“Of course I saw it. I thought he was the prettiest?”
“···Driving me crazy. Aren’t you picking a girlfriend?”

In fact, being pretty is a great talent. Shouldn’t he get stronger sooner if he thinks of hitting him? In that sense, the more beautiful it was, the better.

In particular, the more members of the clan, the more he couldn’t even give it to anyone.

I was thinking of giving it mainly to women who listened well and contributed a lot to the clan.

‘I feel like an excellent employee of the month. It’s perfect.’

She nodded and spoke to Han So-young.

“Anyway, if there is no problem, let’s pass it as an intern. And you and Dahye each take on a party.”

“Already..? It hasn’t been long since Dahye and I woke up.”
“It’s okay. That’s enough for me to see.”

They often sparred with him and were stronger than hunters of her class. Basic skills were sufficient.

Jiing

Han So-young looked at her smartphone and frowned.

“One applicant asked for a change of time? A hunter that has been growing rapidly recently, as I said before.”
“When?”

“···Now. I arrived right in front of the building.”
“So suddenly?”

“He said it out loud. I don’t have time because there are so many places to call. This is a deal that I applied for because the conditions were the best among the small and medium clans.”

It was embarrassing, but I decided to look at her face first.

Fortunately, there was little time left before the scheduled interview. If you proceeded quickly, the time did not overlap with the existing interviewers.

To be honest, I thought a bold person would come in with a little rude request. However, it was completely different from what I expected.

“Ah, hello…”

An emaciated woman walked in helplessly.

She was wearing armor with a sense of use, perhaps the equipment she usually wore. Her skin was rough and dark circles descended heavily.

Overall, it was an image of a tired hacker. She seemed mentally unsettled even with simple questions being exchanged.

He looked all over her body and even bit her fingertips.

“Did you say you have telekinesis? May I ask her to demonstrate?”
“Yes, yes… That, that, now, wait…”

Her hands trembled, and she took something out of her arms.

‘What.’

Blue crystal powder.

She poured it into her mouth. She had been trembling and anxious until now, but she changed in an instant.

“Haa… I’ll start.”

Ugh

All the weapons she carried with her came to mind. A sharp knife or awl. They flew quickly and embroidered the air.

It’s just like D-class power. But there was something that took a little while.

“That thing you put in your mouth earlier… Is it a blue crystal?”
“Ah yes. It’s a magic supplement, but it’s effective.”

It was the stuff that made a lot of noise in the news. Especially···.

“There was a rumor that it was a drug. Are you okay?”
“Oh. It’s not bad for the body, so what is it? By the way, can I ask you a question?”

“You will.”

“The job posting says that they support consumables and equipment used in rifts, so are blue crystals also provided?”

‘Haha..’

To take a drug that might turn out to be a drug in an interview anyway. Addiction made me feel insane.

*

Han So-young just folded the previous applicant’s resume in half.

“You look good, but you look like a drug addict no matter how you look at it. Are you sure you won’t receive it?”

A person like that will definitely impress the people around him.

“Of course not. He seems to be even recommending it to people around him.”
“Ugh… I hope the next one will be a normal person…”

Time passed and the woman I saw at the cafe earlier came in nervously.

Her short suit skirt seemed awkward, but she kept trying to take it down. Her legs wrapped in her stockings met the high heels, drawing a sleek curve.

‘Hmm… Just looking at it, it looks like he’s just awakened.’

It was evident from the fact that she was wearing a suit. She bowed vigorously, stiff as if she was nervous.

“Oh, hello. My name is Yeonhee Lee. I was awakened to F-rank a month ago. Rain, even though I don’t have crack experience, I’ll do my best if you pick me up!”

Han So-young spoke softly while reading her documents.

“Hello. I am Han So-yeong, the vice-clan leader. You don’t have to be too nervous. Is her ability to summon rocks?”
“Yes Yes···.”

Her voice got quieter. She seemed to lack confidence in her own abilities.

“Could you do a demonstration? Oh, rocks can be dangerous, so should we go to the training room?”
“Oh, no. I’ll do it here…”

Lee Yeon-hee, biting her lip, created a rock in the air.

A stone smaller than her fist landed on her floor.

“Uh..”

In an instant, the interview room went silent. Han So-yeong lost her words and shut her mouth.

She has a phenomenal ability to create matter out of thin air, but no matter how much she looks at it, it doesn’t seem like she can catch monsters.

Belatedly, Lee Yeon-hee spoke urgently.

“Ji, the porter role is also fine. I look forward to!”

Siu, who had silently stroked her chin, nodded her head. She understood the lack of money at the cafe.

With that kind of ability, it would be difficult to cross the rift.

Her looks were also outstanding, so it was obvious that she would be in trouble if she became a street porter. It wasn’t that Han So-yeong covered her face for nothing.

‘Hmm.. I think he’ll work really hard if I pull him out.’

She felt that there would be synergy if she brought her an alchemy book from the academy world. Right now it’s a stone, but just in case.

I looked at my resume and asked a question.

“Even though you are on leave, you graduated from a prestigious university. Do you like to study?”
“Ah yes. I loved studying from a young age.”

“May I ask why you took a leave of absence?”
“That’s because of the family situation…”

“Ah.. That’s right. All right.”

She nodded her head, reminding herself of a job title that suited her. She was perfect for an alchemist.

“Do you have any questions about the clan?”

Lee Yeon-hee’s face brightened a little at Si-woo’s favorable tone. Her face was full of curiosity, but she couldn’t bear to open her mouth.

“It’s okay, so tell me.”
“Yeah.. It says lodging provided, is that true?”

“Of course. Right now, the 4th to 5th floors of this building are all accommodations.”
“Ah..!”

Even after that, as Lee Yeon-hee carefully inquired about her welfare or salary, her eyes grew more and more desperate. She said that his clan’s welfare was overwhelmingly better than other places.

Equipment was sponsored by SH Smith, and the building was owned by him. Compared to other clans, there was a lot of leeway.

“Pooh, if you pick me up, I’ll work really hard! I look forward to.”

After bowing 90 degrees until the end, Lee Yeon-hee left her interview room.

Han So-yeong confirmed that she was completely out, and she said quietly.

“Yeah.. Isn’t summoning stones a bit like that? It seemed useless in battle.”
“Hmm.. How about non-combat jobs? Like an alchemist.”

“Alchemy..? Isn’t that something that only large corporations try?”
“I got a nice alchemy book. It might turn out better than you think.”

“Ummm.. If that’s the case… Okay.”

“And most of the applicants should be selected if there are no major problems. Try an internship for three months and sign a formal contract if it’s okay.”
“Okay.”

Hard way in other small and medium clans. This is because you have to provide equipment to the clan members who have entered. However, it didn’t matter because he received sponsored equipment for free.

Interviews continued for the next week.

“Who will be tomorrow?”

Han So-young said with a slightly puzzled expression.

“The kid who said you were the prettiest earlier.”
“Ah.. Him?”

“It was a little strange. I was going to scout in a huge guild, so why did I apply here?”

“A huge guild? After all, he has double abilities.”

She joked about why she, known as a promising player, applied for her job.

“Hmm… I must have fallen in love with my swordsmanship.”
“Ugh..?”

If he had said something like this in the past, he would have cursed at me.

It was seen that the swearing decreased while working in the clan.

‘No.. Calling me master in bed makes me seem to be getting more and more compliant..?’
