Chapter 220 – Promotion Match (4)

“Kueeeee Queueek!”

The monster’s scream echoed everywhere. Now, in this forest, a cruel play was taking place. As if you were in the middle of a Hermann Nitsch play, drops of blood soaked the floor. We grabbed Lava’s limbs and turned her face toward Senior Yu. Senior Yoojeong was looking at Lava with a sad expression.

“Senior! Quick! Hurry!”

Originally nicknamed the C-class top predator and feared to slaughter novice hunters, Lava was now screaming desperately and struggling. But there was nothing this monster could do. Her limbs were all broken, and her thick scalp was peeled off, revealing her inner flesh.

Because Lee Jun-hyeok periodically applied electric shocks to paralyze her nerves, Lava’s lower body was nothing more than a heavy burden. Now, Lava was just a punching bag. Senior Yujeong was wearing her gauntlet and looking at Lava with a very displeased expression. Lee Junhyeok shouted.

“Yoojung! Gotta do it fast! I’m going to lose all my hair!”

“No, but this… !”

“Oh, quickly!”

When Lee Jun-hyeok pressed, Kim Yoo-jung gritted her teeth. Even if I thought about it, it seemed a bit wrong to hold Lava to this point, but I still had to upgrade her, so I couldn’t help it. There was no need to do it alone, as long as the conditions were met, the promotion was the law.

Kim Yoo-jung felt sorry for Lava, who had caught and killed her throughout her life as a hunter, and she gave her a small apology. Did she understand that Lava apologized to herself? He shook his head again and made a grotesque noise, as if he wanted to release it quickly as he didn’t need an apology.

“Quaaaaagh! Aaaaagh!”

“Senior!”

The arms that cut off the nerves were wriggling little by little. Senior Yujeong grabbed her gauntlet and started shouting her lines.

“Uh, um… ! Four, four, love and justice! And peace! You who disturb the world, to destroy your evil organization! Ooh, we showed up! We ha, ha, ha, hyper!! Special! Ball! Big!”

“Good job Yoojung!”

Lee Joon-hyeok cheered me up. Senior Yoojeong grabbed her gauntlet and started running. Lava, her eyes protruding forward, was shaking her head to and fro, struggling for her survival. The sharp point of her gauntlet lodged between Lava’s forehead, and Lava’s limbs convulsed as her head split to the side.

“Borrow… !”

Lava stopped screaming. The nape of her neck swelled in a circle, and chunks of her meat rose with a violent explosion. We felt Rava’s whole body twisting, and Yoo-jeong also kneaded his arm and bounced behind him. Crouching on her floor, she repositioned herself to make sure her monster was dead.

Lava could not be called more Lava. After the carnival was over, it was spread out on the floor in the shape of a pig that had been sacrificed. Lee Jun-hyeok, who was riding behind Lava, frowned as he wiped the blood from her face.

He gave us words of encouragement, as if he believed that Yu-jeong had completed her mission with this.

“Ah, it was hard. Let’s take out the boss core and take it.”

“Senior Yoo Jeong. Thank you for your effort.”

I also confirmed that Lava was dead and walked toward senior Yoo-jeong. It was to hug her now that she had risen to her C-level. But she looked at her status window with her subtle expression and blushed. And she looked at us awkwardly, twisting her expression.

Lee Jun-hyeok, who was wiping the blood, me and other guild members who had a hard time capturing Lava, all knew her expression as soon as they saw her. Junhyeok Lee asked.

“Didn’t you accomplish your mission?”

It was the timing that everyone thought that the words ‘no’ or ‘of course I did’ should come out of Kim Yoo-jung’s mouth. But she just smiled awkwardly and couldn’t answer properly. Junhyeok Lee said.

“Patience. Do you have to do this again? Hey Suhyun. Next time, catch yourself from behind. Let’s just call Ichie and another kid and catch it more leisurely next time. It would have been a little more comfortable if Taekyung had a golden horse, but he left because he was going to [Amazing]…”

Lee Jun-hyeok clicked his tongue and went out of the gate first. Together with the other guild members, I pulled out the boss magic stone and wrapped it around Yu-jeong’s shoulders. Senior Yu-jeong looked at me with a confused expression and then said this.

“Oh, why did you fail? I did exactly what I said.”

“I don’t know. Let’s go back and talk. I can’t stand at the gate all the time.”

*****

After recovering from the gate to the guild building, we gathered in the meeting room. Lee Jun-hyeok, who had answered the phone right before the meeting, looked at us with a serious expression and then suddenly wrote on his phone.

[Never mention anything related to Lee Hyun-woo and terrorist organizations]

We nodded our heads without asking who came first, and the meeting team exchanged glances in a serious atmosphere as if cold water had been poured on them in an instant. Lee Jun-hyeok clapped his hands loudly and said, like a person who makes an editing shop on a broadcast.

“What are you doing? What are you so depressed about? Yoo Jeong-ah. Relax.”

I knew he was saying that to lighten the mood naturally. When Lee Jun-hyeok said that to senior Yoo-jeong, who was not particularly moody, she lowered her voice and replied ‘yes’, and I lightly brushed her arm and said,

“Cheer up. You can do it again next time.”

“Thank you. Mr. Suhyun.”

“Now, then, at this time today, we will have a meeting about why Kim Yoo-jung couldn’t get her promotion. First of all, if you look at the information written in the status window, you can see that ‘[Hyper Commando] Decision Line [Love and Justice! And peace! To destroy your evil organization that disturbs the world! We showed up! We are hyper! Commando!] And defeat the boss’, but even though we did it, we couldn’t get promoted. Regarding this, please actively present your opinion based on your own experience or reasoning.”

Seonghayeon raised her hand and said.

“Isn’t it because I didn’t follow the scene exactly? Seeing that you pointed out that it was a decision line, it seems like you have to follow that scene exactly. I remember seeing that done on TV a long time ago, but it’s the opening line and the line that is shouted once after transforming right before defeating the enemy. Seeing that it’s not just a line, but a decision line, it seems like I have to recreate that situation.”

It was a plausible statement. I hadn’t seen that [Hyper Commando], But if the conditions were that complicated, it made sense that senior Yoo-jeong couldn’t get promoted. Senior Yu-jeong said annoyed at the words.

“No, why am I the only one in such a difficult condition? My sister said she played with a block of ice for 3 minutes! It ended with the guild leader shouting the name of the skill.”

“You should think of it as giving easy conditions when you are promoted to b-class. Huh?”

“Ah…”

Yoojung sunbaenim looked really tired. But the ordeal did not end here. It was because they had to practice accurately, so all the personnel participating in the next promotion operation had to watch [Hyper Commando] And study the scene direction. Junhyeok Lee said.

“Now, then, at the next meeting, let’s talk about how to better emulate the hyper commando’s directing. Because it’s work.”

Lee Jun-hyeok had a very happy expression. Was he originally a hyper commando fan? He added the word ‘work’ to hide the fact that he was enjoying it, but no one thought that Lee Jun-hyeok was really passionate about his work.

****

A week later, Park Seong-jin was able to obtain a recording file containing the meeting records of the past week. His two faithful servants infiltrated the [Ground Zero] Building as cleaning services, installed and retrieved the recorder themselves, and made evidence.

As soon as Seongjin Park received the recording, he sent one to Hyunwoo Lee and then started listening to the other one himself.

Park Seong-jin himself was also looking forward to what the meeting would be about in [Ground Zero]. Maybe he really caught the clue of the terrorist group, and he was curious about what the hunter guild, which is raising its stock price these days, would talk about.

He didn’t have much time, so he quickly skipped ahead and started listening to the story from the middle.

[So, in order to make the crystal line speak here better, there must be an explosion unique to the hyper commando? The decision line is perfect! You have to shout it out and explode behind it so that the taste of the real Jeondaemul comes alive. Uh?]

[No, guild leader, at what age are you burying bombs there? Then people get hurt.]

[Uh-huh, by any chance, what if I didn’t put the explosion in and I have to do it one more time? Uh? We must strive for perfection!]

“…What is this?”

What kind of meeting is this? Park Seong-jin dug his own ears and then played the minutes of another meeting. It was clear that there would be a meeting to talk about something productive.

[Love and justice! And peace! To destroy your evil organization that disturbs the world! We showed up! We are hyper! Commandos!]

As soon as he turned the middle of the meeting minutes, Park Seong-jin was startled by the screams he heard, turned off the sound and looked around. Fortunately, no one was around. Seongjin Park tilted his head and looked over the contents again.

[And then, an explosion exploded from behind! It explodes, and then, in the airing here, it tumbles once in the air, right?]

[No, do I have to tumble too? Is it hard to hold the gauntlet?]

[You just need to support the gauntlet from the side. If anything, we can keep it, tumble it, and throw it away.]

“…What the hell are these bastards having a meeting about?”

Seongjin Park looked at the minutes of another meeting. These were the minutes of the last meeting of the week.

[Yes. Then, the hyper commando outfit is not worn, and now it has come to a conclusion.]

[Even if I think about it, the outfit wasn’t a bit off. But wouldn’t a helmet be okay?]

[Guild leader.]

[Yoo Jeong-ah. Okay. Huh? I made a joke once. Uh?]

What are you guys doing? Gathering in a conference room all week talking about [Hyper Commandos]? Really? Talking about old classics in such a dangerous situation, and seriously planning to reproduce them?

Park Seong-jin was confused. Suddenly the phone rang. There was only one person to call him at this hour. Seongjin Park swallowed her saliva and answered the phone.

It was Hyunwoo Lee.

“Ah yes. I got a call.”

“You are right. Exactly, that… They are not productive people. What do people who are meeting on this subject know?”

“…Yes?”
