Chapter 13 – 13. Hidden Gate.

“Then why did you fight?”

As I was trudging toward Area A, the security guard walking in front of me turned his head and asked. I guess I didn’t see it from the beginning.

“They messed with my girlfriend.”

“Well…”

After answering briefly, the security guard salivated. You’d think it was worth fighting for. Because he was a man too.

“Ah, come to think of it, a security guard asked me if I was thinking of registering at his dojo. Is that okay?”

“You mean you advertised the dojang?”

“Yes. They wore an armband and promoted it very hard.”

“…Are you a woman with very long hair and carrying a huge sword?”

He seems to be a famous person.
When I said I was right, the security guard let out a small sigh.

“All right. I will report to the superiors.”

The security guard turned around.
Just in time, the broadcast rang.

“Hidden Gate ‘Queen Ant Cave’ is open! Notice once again. The Hidden Gate “Queen Ant Den” Is open!!」

You can see brown gates being created by medium heating throughout the district. The E-class hunters who had been waiting for this time showed their spirits and jumped into the gate.

-Gazua!!!!
-The magic stone is mine!!!

“Let’s go too.”

I threw the cheap gloves and wallet I was wearing into the trash and ran into the gate with Jeong Ha-ryun.

* * *

Entering the Hidden Gate ‘Queen Ant Cave’, Yoon Jae-Jun carefully looked around. He was only himself and his clanmates in the large hollow, as if the starting point did not overlap with the other parties.

The moment you think you’re lucky.

“Hey, Jaejoon Yoon. Please talk to me for a second.”

Seong Hyun-jae, the second-in-command of the Jeoks Clan and a close friend since high school, approached him.

“Do it later. This is a dungeon.”

“Who doesn’t know that? What are you doing these days?”

“We’ll do it later.”

“Fuck you! You saw Dae-Hoon get beaten up! Aren’t you pissed!? That bastard is looking down on us!”

“So you want to find that bastard and get revenge?”

“Of course! Wouldn’t that bastard come in here too? Gotta find it and kill it! You should cut off her limbs and see her girlfriend in front of her eyes! “

“Sung Hyun-jae. Don’t forget what we came here for. The magic stone comes first.”

“Damn it! Are you saying that a few million won is more important than your pride?”

Yoon Jae-joon was frustrated.

Revenge? Good night. Let’s say it’s revenge.
What remains after that? Satisfaction with revenge? Pleasure and sense of superiority gained from beating someone else’s woman?

All in vain
It’s just a fleeting feeling.

But the magic stone is different.

It was a proof that he had won a victory in a dungeon where hundreds of people competed, and at the same time, it was an entry ticket to participate in the hunting festival. It’s not just a few million won jewelry!

However, this stupid bastard in front of me was trying to trade it for a small pride, denigrating it to only a few million won.

The insults rose to the bottom of his chin.

‘A foolish bastard.’

Same goes for the other guys.
Stupid bastards who are satisfied with just a few hundred thousand won and are only thinking about how to make a woman fall for them.

Bastards with no talent, no ambition.
Nausea comes out just by looking at it. If I could, I’d like to grind my face on the asphalt right now.

But not yet.
To obtain the mana stone, I needed the power of these scumbags.

“Jo Dae-hoon.”

“Yes.”

“You, who were beaten, know it well. Do you think we can beat that bastard if we all fight right now?”

“Hey, Jaejun Yoon!”

“Shut up, Sung Hyun-jae! You’re talking to Jo Dae-hun!”

“…I do not know.”

“I do not know? So let’s ask again. Would it be easier to find and kill the offspring as it is now, or would it be easier to kill the offspring after finding its weakness and making it unable to resist?”

“…”

“Answer me.”

“Hold on to your weaknesses…”

“If you understand, come to your senses and go to your seat.”

“…Yes.”

“Move!”

The face of Cho Dae-hun, who was at the front of the formation, was full of dissatisfaction.

It was because he knew that Jaejun Yoon said that finding a weak spot was the easy way, but in fact he had pushed his revenge to the back burner because of his magic stone.

‘You fucking bastard! Do you know who is the dog disease sign? Yeah, that mana stone is more important than me, right?’

Hard!

He shuddered at the feeling of betrayal. He resented Jae-Jun Yoon more than the bastard who hit him.

‘Wait a few months, it’s a dog. I’m going to cut you off.’

He vowed revenge, but his anger still persisted. I needed another target for venting my anger.

‘That one?’

How long has it been since you walked on like that? Something was running fast this way from the other side of the aisle.

It was a giant ant.

‘You’re behind me!’

Cho Dae-hoon, who finally found the target of his anger, ran away holding his sword. I heard Jaejun Yoon shouting something from behind, but he ignored it. It was a baby to be laid on later anyway.

‘Besides, if I catch it by myself, that bastard won’t even say anything!’

He struck the sword as hard as he could at the ant running towards him.

Kwajik!

The giant ant’s head was hollowed out in the middle. The attack worked properly. Cho Dae-hun immediately prepared for the next attack.

But at that moment. The giant ant, who should have been stunned by the shock, reached out and bit his arm.

Duduk.

An unpleasant sound was heard.

“Keah!!”

“Daehun!!”

Seong Hyun-jae rushed over and hit the giant ant on the neck. After that, Yoon Jae-joon, who distorted his face, approached.

“You fucking asshole! What are you doing now…”

However, he couldn’t finish his words.
Suddenly, the inside of the ant nest shook and a terrifying sound was heard.

Koo Goo Goo!!

“Fuck…Fuck…That’s what… You crazy asshole! What have you done!!”

On the other side of the aisle.
A swarm of ants was coming.

* * *

Upon entering the gate, a huge cavity appeared.
It was the starting point of the queen ant nest. I took care of Jung Ha-ryun first and then looked around.

There were two more parties besides us here.

One was a harem party of three women and one man, and the other was an ordinary mixed party of two men and one woman.

As I discovered them, they also found me. A heavy tension filled the cavity with the sound of a weapon being raised.

At that time, the harem party’s Cheong Il-jeom stepped forward.

“Put down your weapon. We have no intention of fighting!”

Indeed. He was handsome enough to drag around three women, but somehow he seemed weak. As a Hunter, it was an appearance that was not very trustworthy.

“It is not right for us to fight among ourselves here and now! This is not the time to fight each other, this is the time to cooperate!”

“Why don’t you say that after you see the girls behind you?”

A middle-aged man holding a shield from a mixed party struck back at Cheong Il-jeom’s words. As he said, the harem members were ready to attack at any time with their weapons pointed.

“It’s Sohee. Drop the weapon Juna and Yejin too.”

“But…”

“Hey, Jeong So-hee. Aren’t you going to listen to the voice actor?”

“Down your weapon.”

“Sohee, put down your weapon. Please. We must lower our weapons first before they will lower their weapons.”

“…Okay.”

As the woman named Jeong So-hee reluctantly lowered her sword, she spoke again to the man holding the shield.

“Will you believe me now?”

“…Looks like you have no intention of fighting. So what are we going to do?”

“I want to join forces. As you all know, the monsters here are much stronger than the average E-class monsters. There are even more numbers! If they move separately, they will surely be exhausted or injured before they reach the queen.”

“Well…”

“So let’s join forces. If you all work together to the queen ant’s location, you will save stamina and less likely to be injured. It will be even faster!”

“…How can I trust you guys won’t betray me?”

“If you want, we will take the lead. I can also give you my weapon when I change my shift.”

“…You seem serious. Okay, cooperate.”

“What are you guys going to do?”

Their eyes turned to us.
They didn’t say it directly, but I could feel the pressure in their eyes. It was as if he was forcing us to follow the majority rule and not spoil the mood.

They are funny

“We go first.”

“…What do you mean?”

“You mean you’re leaving first because you have no intention of cooperating and no intention of going together?”

“I can’t let it go like that.”

“Why? Are you going to go separately without a fight?”

“Because it’s dangerous with just the two of you. Come safely with us.”

What is he saying now.
This cheeky bastard.

“Then, jump in.”

“Yeah…?”

“If you twist it, it’s a joke. Who evaluates who Be cheeky.”

“I didn’t mean to say that!”

“Yes! The voice actor is a little dull and unnecessarily rambunctious, but he’s not someone who puts others down!”

“Is it Lord, Lord? That’s a compliment…Right?”

“The voice actor is rather nice, so he gets rid of it. Sometimes, when I see him, he’s so kind that it’s frustrating.”

“Yeah, even Yejin?”

Do the shit
Hear shit.

“But what about you? Will you stay still?”

“Ah…That, that’s…Uu, my brother is also very nice…”

The voice is so low that even I can barely hear it, but it’s good enough. In the first place, the other side was not paying attention to us as they were shouting haha ​​with their faces reddened among themselves.

“Let’s go, just.”

It was time for me to take a step after deciding that it was not worth talking about anymore.

Koo Goo Goo Palace.

The ant nest began to vibrate.

Finally, the aggro talisman (50,000 won ver.) Given to the blonde archer started to take effect. And that means that.

“Haryeon-ah, let’s run.”

It meant time to run.
