Chapter 142 – Chapter 142 for Guild Development

“How is the request going?”

After establishing the guild, the Sword Master asked.

“It is getting better little by little.”

I felt a little bit of remorse, but it was undeniable that she was getting better.
She didn’t show any hostile reactions to her humans, let alone her self-expression.
I started to listen to my words properly, and since I set standards for rewards and punishments, I listened to my words well at home.

“Good thing. I’m so glad.”

The Sword Master let out a sigh of relief.

“Can I visit you soon?”
“Of course.”

The swordsman grinned.

“We’ve dealt with all of the guild’s internal traitors, but we won’t be able to come for a few weeks because we have to deal with the dungeons we were planning to attack with other guilds we’ve been doing business with.”
“It’s okay. Even if it’s not a guild, I have experience running various parties.”
“Is there a dungeon to subdue?”

I shook my head.

“Then can I leave a dungeon to you?”
“As much as you like.”

I glanced at Jeong Soo-ryun, who was watching the guild association.
In the end, as long as she trusted me and entered her guild, her dungeon had to exist for her.
I can’t help you every time, so I’ll have to find a party that I can unite with periodically.

“Instead, I’ll believe that support will come from time to time from the Twilight Guild.”
“Heh heh, don’t worry about that. Since I joined as a technical advisor, I have no intention of just sitting there washing my hands.”

The swordsman, who had laughed once, held out a card to me.

Counterfeit ID card.
At least in the dungeons managed by the Twilight Guild there won’t be any problems.

“I found something while investigating the traitors.”

The swordsman who passed the card to me said.

“What is it?”
“It’s a document that all the traitors are in collusion with Daesung. Yeom Ryu-hyeon seems to have collected the documents in case Dae-sung gets in trouble.”
“Didn’t you already know that Daesung was connected?”
“Assuming and having solid evidence have different meanings.”

A cold rage settled on his face.

“Are you planning to open right away?”
“No. Not now. And that’s it. I found something very interesting in the process.”
“Funny… You mean?”
“Okay.”

He handed me a copy of the document.
And there was a list of Hunters written on it.

“This?”
“It’s a list of the missing people who disappeared from the dungeon. Some have been declared dead, and others have gone missing completely. And then some popped back up and became villains.”

Among them, the name of Baek Cheong-ha was also written.

“I hope these guys…”
“Perhaps someone intentionally kidnaps and disappears the hunters.”
“Yeomryuhyun and Daeseong are connected here.”
“Okay.”

Anger was boiling in the Sword Saint’s eyes.

“What do you plan to do?”
“Whatever, we need to gather our strength. In order for Daesung to collapse completely when this evidence is presented.”
“Even if we open this now, the damage to Daesung will be minimal.”
“Okay.”

The only ones who saw that it was corrupted by the Beholder were me and the Sword Saint.
I have a second-level identification code, and the shadow mask once bore the stigma of killing a comrade.
The credibility of my story was not very high, at least not to the public.
It wouldn’t be very persuasive even if only the swordsman came forward.
At least now, Daesung was a huge pillar supporting the Korean hunter community.

“You need to increase your strength. To the point where I can survive even if Daesung takes it.”
“Do you have any plans to talk to CEO Choi Woo-sung?”
“Is he someone who will listen to others?”
“No.”

Choi Woo-sung was a man who was more stubborn than anyone else.
At least that’s how it looked on the battlefield.

“He must be the same guy. Where in Daesung did something happen without Choi Woo-sung’s consent? He must have ordered it. Offer the hunters as a sacrifice to that unknown person.”
“…”
“I don’t know why, but there must be a reason why he changed that way. He was a stubborn guy, but at least he wasn’t black on the inside.”

After speaking, the swordsman let out a sigh.

“What are you so obsessed with? Still, he was a guy with his own justice…”
“Are you planning to recruit new members?”
“It should be. I’m thinking of collaborating with various guilds while aggressively expanding. One of them is your guild, the Meister Guild.”
“You are serious.”
“Okay. Like you, I have a pretext to avenge Daesung.”

He looked at me and smiled.

“I will help you with matters you cannot do yourself. So don’t worry.”

After saying that, the swordsman left saying he was busy with work.
I gained a strong ally called the Sword Saint.
Maybe he’ll take care of things I can’t do myself.

“Suryun, let’s go now.”
“Sir, the association building is much larger than expected. Uh? But what about Geomseong-nim?”
“I had something to do, so I went first.”
“Ah…”

She stroked her chest as if relieved.
It seemed that the seat with the Sword Master was quite uncomfortable.

“Then let’s go to work.”
“You say you go right after registering?”
“Okay. You have to fill your performance. And you need to increase your field experience.”
“Ah…”

She nodded her head.

“Then what about the reward?”
“Huh? You received it separately last time.”

Arra, Hyeri, and Mina received the same rewards as Jeongsu Training.
She, who was in the dungeon at the time, even spent the night separately.

At her request to be fucked like a beast, she even shook her waist really wildly.
I did it for as long as her overflowing stamina.
How should I say, a wild horse that is fun to tame?

– Do more, do more.

The way he wrapped his legs around my waist and urged me to ejaculate was quite impressive.
She almost had to forcefully press her on the shoulder to get the power out of her.

“I was curious about what the criteria for awards were. It’s not a test anymore. Because it is no longer possible to distinguish between first place and last place.”
“Ah.”

Certainly, since she left the academy, she had no competition.
The party members raiding her dungeon were the ones she had to cooperate with, and the only thing she had to fight was the monsters.

“Simple. Result. It will depend on how many more monsters you deal with and how many magic stones you bring.”
“Result…”
“The standard of performance will be the average of the average performance of normal hunters. Of course, the height will be adjusted according to your performance and average.”

It was necessary to properly set the criteria for awards.
If it’s too high, you’ll be overly greedy and get seriously hurt, and if it’s too low, you won’t be motivated and your progress will be slow.
A point where she can be moderately motivated and have a desire to rise.
You have to attack that point and catch it.

“Hmm, okay! If you do it instead, you have to make sure.”
“OK.”

Her face lit up.
After being able to clear the dungeon, Jung Soo-ryun’s attitude became very friendly.
How can I say it, it feels like a beast that listens well?
In the past, if I was a lioness who had to be trained with such strong power that it was difficult to control, now I feel like a lioness who has already been trained and shows affection to her trainer.

I wonder if I overcame the trauma and started to listen well, if not.

‘Maybe he misunderstood that I was the one who saved him, so he listened to me carefully.’

She carried her guilt for cheating on her.
But because she got over her trauma, and forgot a little bit of her bad memories of her past.
Thanks to her, she fulfilled her role as a Hunter.
Thanks to that, I got a capable Hunter.
Maybe this is a win-win for everyone?

“Then are you going to raid the dungeon right away?”
“It should be. You got something.”

I said looking at my ID.
It was time to make the Meister Guild’s first performance.

“Whoa, I will win the reward unconditionally.”

Jeong Su-ryun, who was following her, clenched her fists.

***

The dungeon the Twilight Guild gave us was a C-class dungeon in the suburbs of Seoul.
A dungeon in a swampy terrain.
It was a difficult dungeon to attack for a C-class because the visibility was not secured due to the poisonous mist, and the Swamp Granny attacked periodically.
It is a dungeon where the key is to get to the center of the dungeon without falling into the swamp, and it was difficult to enter unless you use a mask that blocks poison smoke or a hunter who can detoxify with mana.
Of course, both me and Su-ryun were skilled enough to decipher poisonous dance.

-Keeeeek!

A swamp hag that jumped out of the swamp and attacked it was strong enough to slash it with a single knife.

“It’s boring.”

Jeong Su-ryun murmured, sticking out her mouth.
Only enemies weaker than expected came out and seemed disappointed.

“Are you dissatisfied?”
“Of course. Aren’t you a teacher? These kids are weaker than the place I went to during the academy practice.”
“Probably most of them will only deal with weaklings like this.”

I said as I cleaned up the boss’ corpse.
Class C dungeon, swamp of despair.
Contrary to its grandiose name, the boss of the dungeon is a giant lizardman.
The lizard man who moved forward while removing the swamp halmang was weaker than he thought unlike his huge body.
No, we were strong.
This is because it was a difficult dungeon configuration for a C-class.

“You only deal with weak monsters like this?”
“Okay.”
“Because our guild is new?”
“No. Class B dungeons don’t happen as often as I thought. Do you know how many new dungeons are created in Korea in a year?”

She shook her head.
This is the knowledge taught in the second year at the academy.

“Did you sleep in class?”
“Come on, honey! He was just dozing off.”
“Well, anyway, the average number of new dungeons created per year is between 900 and 1200. At least 800 of them are grade C or lower dungeons.”

C-class or lower dungeons were not economically viable even if they were left for a long time, so most of the party members who were put in were to get rid of them.
I often leave about 10 of them a year for practice at the academy in each region, but I subjugated all others.

“You mean only 200 of the remaining 100 are B-class or higher?”
“On average, about 10% are grade B or higher dungeons. Often less than you said.”

So, by Korean standards, B-class dungeons only appeared once every 3 days.
Currently, there are hundreds of guilds registered in Korea.
Among them, there were not even 100 guilds that subjugated level B or higher dungeons.

“The competition is tougher than I thought.”
“Okay.”

That’s why guilds used to scramble to conquer B-class dungeons.
It was also because of this that the guilds had fierce conflicts.
Even if you target only one B-class, you can raise sales at the level of small and medium-sized businesses.
It was the current hunter world that a decent guild didn’t have to worry about a year’s income even if they attacked only one A-class.

Even in the case of C-class dungeons, there were many good rewards.
It means that it is relatively less profitable, but it does not mean that the absolute amount of compensation is small.

Right now, if you sell magic stones and accessories from this giant lizardman, you can make tens of millions of won.

“Ugh, then we can’t clear high-level dungeons?”

After organizing the Lizard Man’s appendages, I saw Jeong Soo-ryun.

“No. There is a way.”
“What?”
“First of all, we’re going to capture the Twilight Guild’s work together.”

I said, spreading my fingers.

“The second is how to go into the dungeon as soon as it is created.”
“Is that possible? Wasn’t that part Daesung was holding onto?”
“It is possible. If only there were helpers in the guild association.”
“The association’s helper?”

Guild Association.
It is a hunter-related association run by the Korean government, and it was a balance guardian that balances the hunter world that is focused on Daesung.
The guild association, which had detectors as accurate as Daesung, dispatched government officials and guild members to raid dungeons where Daesung could not dispatch personnel.
Of course, they didn’t have as many S-class hunters as Daesung did, nor did they cooperate with various foreign partners like Garam Guild, so they didn’t attack S-class or higher dungeons.
However, they selected guilds capable of attacking grade A or lower dungeons, and when a dungeon break occurred in the detector, they quickly called the guilds in charge and provided the right to subdue them.
It also guarantees a return on it.

That was the reason why the Association had their power and say with only a small number of Hunters.

And I needed a helper to work with such a guild association.

‘I can’t be a swordsman.’

It is too exposed to Daesung.
Rumors must have spread that he became a technical advisor to the new guild.
Daeseong must be vigilant.

I needed a new helper who was not exposed enough to not be wary of Daesung, and who could exert his own influence.

Seonhwa Chae, president of the Korea Academy student council.

‘I have to make Chae Seon-hwa, who wants a higher position because of her ruler skills, be on my side.’

Even if you are not necessarily an extracurricular student.

“So, do you know about Chae Seon-hwa?”
“Chae Seonhwa?”
“Okay. That friend who served as student council president for two consecutive years.”
“I know you well.”
“I would like to arrange a seat for you.”
“Why me?”

Jeong Su-ryun said with caution.
It seemed that she intuitively realized that I wanted her.

“Because that friend will ask for a better dungeon for you to defeat.”

And if you subdue that dungeon, the Meister Guild and Jeong Soo-ryun’s name value will go up.

“I need that woman to subdue a stronger dungeon.”
