"W-What?!"
To join the Hunters Guild?
Sung Jin-Woo might have even complained about Min-Jun's decision to suddenly join the Hunters Guild without having to discuss the matter with everyone, but he would have never, ever imagined that he would be able to join the strongest guild in Korea!
Yes, he might complain, but he cared about Min-jun as he was afraid that Min-jun was being deceived, but he knew well that the moment Choi Jong-In decided to buy the hospital where his mother stayed and gave it to Min-Jun directly, he knew that Min-jun's decision to join the Hunters Guild was because of them, which made them move, yet also at a loss for a while.
Did he sacrifice his life for them?
"Really? Can Oppa join the Hunters Guild, Minjun-oppa?" Jinah asked excitedly, since if they were together, then they could protect each other, right?
"Yeah." Minjun nodded. "As long as you nod, Hyung, you will enter the guild tomorrow. You can aim for any position except for the guildmaster and the vice guildmaster, since those positions are taken, and you can make a great salary. What do you think?"
While his offer or proposal might let Jinwoo lose his chance to have the system, when he thought about the original story, how Jinwoo had to be in torment and in great pain, so Jinwoo could get the system, he felt that it was better for Jinwoo to join the Hunters Guild, as Jinwoo could get a good salary, and Jinwoo could also get close to his real "waifu."
"It's great! Oppa, you should join!"
Sung Jin-Woo couldn't say anything, and he was at a loss, yet—
"I am sorry. I won't join, Minjun."
"Oppa!"
Jinah was angry with Jinwoo.
Joining Minjun meant that Jin-Woo could have better safety and also money, especially when the Hunters Guild had everything, whether it was money, resources, or manpower.
It had everything, especially when three S-Rank Hunters gathered together in this guild.
Yes, Jinwoo might be the weakest Hunter, but with Minjun's connection, everything was possible since in this world, the one who could live well was the one with the connection!
However, unexpectedly, Jinwoo refused his offer, which made Minjun feel strange; was this Jinwoo's way to protect his dignity?
'Dignity, huh?'
He sighed, wondering how one could think of that when their life was in survival mode.
Instead of thinking of the dignity, wasn't it better for Jin-Woo to join him and live an easy life?
Yet, this was probably the reason why Jinwoo became the protagonist.
"Jinah."
Minjun stopped Jinah from talking further, then met his gaze with Jinwoo.
"......"
Jinwoo felt like he couldn't breathe, and was unable to meet Minjun's gaze, especially—
"Are you sure about this, Hyung? If you join the Hunters Guild, you can have more time with Jinah, and also Aunty, you know?"
"Even so..." Jingwoo knew that Minjun only wished the best for him, and it was also because of that that there was even more reason for him to refuse to join the Hunters Guild. "Let me continue on myself, Minjun."
"......"
Minjun was a bit speechless, but he knew that this was how the world of the fighting story was. Irrational. After all, if one could live an easy life, why would they choose the difficult path?
Even now, he still remembers his previous life, the memory of the constant overwork, where he had to stay at his office for so many days to finish all of his jobs, cover up his useless coworkers, and all of the other things.
While the result of his hard work was shown, at the same time, this was also the reason why he was reincarnated in this life, as he died, and gained a second chance.
On this second chance, Minjun wanted to take it easy, but in this South Korean cyberpunk-like city, the bottom lived like hell.
Yes, it might be crazy, sometimes, when he forced himself to study for eight hours or ten hours for his streaming few times daily after he had a long study at his high school and university, he felt that dying was much easier, but as his grandmother, who couldn't give up and continued to take care of him, he also wouldn't do so, since like Jinwoo, he had a dignity.
However, his purpose was no longer for survival, since, as he gained a chance, he wanted to take revenge.
A revenge to fuck this shitty world that brought him nothing but endless torment!
Yet, despite this, he had to admit that there were many wonderful things that he encountered in his life, which was why this world wasn't as unbearable as everyone thought.
Regardless, Minjun rubbed the bridge of his nose, then sighed. "Then, I respect that choice, Hyung. But if you are tired and don't want to face the danger again, then please tell me. My offer is open all the time."
"Thank you, Minjun."
Jinwoo also sighed in relief, yet inwardly, he wished for more strength. He didn't want to be weak, yet why was he weak?
'The weakest hunter...'
If he were powerful, then would Minjun join the Hunters Guild?
No, he could help Minjun with his studies, focusing on the university, as Minjun stayed with Jinah happily.
Unfortunately, he was weak, which made Minjun have to work harder.
Still, there was one question that he wanted to ask. "Does your guild plan to enter the dungeon, Minjun?"
"Yes."
"When?"
"It won't be so soon since I need to get used to my ability first."
Minjun wasn't lying since Choi Jong-In, his guildmaster, had told him to prepare to go to the dungeon later, but frankly, he felt ready at any moment, as he had a Manager that could help him in his fight
"Be careful. The dungeon isn't as easy as you imagine. Always be careful and follow the words of your leaders."
Being an S-Rank Hunter might sound fancy, but it doesn't mean that one can become the strongest directly.
Yes, Minjun had the potential, but if he was careless and arrogant, he would lose his life, and Jinwoo needed to remind him of that.
"......"
Minjun was at a loss, especially thinking about how suicidally Jinwoo was in the original story to grow stronger, almost dying so many times, which made him speechless about who should be careful.
"Yes."
However, he knew that Jinwoo cared about him, and he was also too lazy to talk more as he was hungry.
Nevertheless, the day of his first time in the dungeon was finally coming, and at the same time, it would be the debut of his work as a Hunter!
