I upgrade alone

In the past, although I wanted to hear others call myself the man who blocked the S-rank portal alone '...'

But it is a pity that another hunter has already taken this title.

But so what?

He is from the combat department, and he is from the auxiliary department.

It is enough for each to become the strongest in their own field.

'Uh-huh. '

Intoxicated by fantasy, Yuri took a water bottle from his pocket.

The mellow scent of vodka flows out of it.

"Yu, Yuri Hunter! Alcohol is not allowed...!"

The staff of the association who was following him hurriedly stopped him, but Yuri stared straight at the staff.

"I'm blessing, blessing, you know. Don't be so nervous. I'll give you the best show."

"That...that too."

"Do you want to have a bite too? You won't be nervous all of a sudden."

Yuri hooked the staff's shoulders while persuading him to drink, while President Matsumoto, who was standing in the distance, frowned.

'The future of our R country depends on this kind of man. '

He clicked his tongue softly and asked the people around him.

"How many S-rank hunters are waiting?"

"There are three in total."

"Three..."

Only three of the dozen or so S-rank hunters responded to the association's call.

Matsumoto's brows furrowed even tighter.

Ever since the Qizhou Island team battle brought disaster to the national hunter world, his appeal has plummeted.

Some people even said that Matsumoto killed the S-rank hunters for his own selfish desire.

Because of these rumors, the S-level hunters from other countries began to hate him, and even said forcefully that as long as he was the president of the Hunter Association, they would not follow the association's instructions.

'If Goto is still here...'

His clenched fists trembled uncontrollably.

Losing Goto is as painful as losing Matsumoto's right-hand man.

'Therefore,'

It is especially important today.

If the power of the Hunter Association is used to successfully block the S-level portal, then once again...

Go Gun Ri...and Seong Jin Woo.

In this way, today is also an opportunity to return all the shame I have suffered to them.

'must......'

It has to be successful.

Shigeo Matsumoto stared at the portal solemnly.

After confirming the time, the entourage whispered next to him: "In 3 minutes, the portal will start to go out of control."

"understood."

Matsumoto nodded.

He looked at the portal with complicated eyes.

Two points, one point, 59 seconds, 58 seconds...

Time flies by in a tense atmosphere.

The black curtain covering the portal became blurred.

The reporters all exclaimed.

"Uh-huh?"

"The portal is open!"

"Get out... come out!"

***

"son."

Cheng Jin-Woo who was about to stand up sat down again.

"Um?"

Mama Cheng who was watching TV looked at Cheng Jin-Woo.

From the beginning of the news broadcast just now, there has been a quick report on the S-class portal in country R.

It's all about how soon the portal will go out of control.

"Where are you going again?"

Mother Cheng's intuition is sometimes sharper than that of a high-level hunter.

Cheng Jin-Woo paused for a moment, and said indifferently, "I have other appointments."

"A date? On a day like this?"

"It was an appointment before. Anyway, the portal also appeared in China, so I didn't cancel it because it didn't feel like it would have any impact."

Mother Cheng still had an expression of disbelief.

But this is not a lie.

'Because this is an agreement with the system. '

Mother Cheng looked at Cheng Jin-Woo quietly, and she asked again.

"Mom, don't worry, you can too?"

Seong Jin-Woo's relaxed face was full of confidence.

"Yes."

It was just to prevent his family from worrying him so hard that he longed for power.

Looking at her son's confident eyes, Mother Cheng smiled.

"be careful."

Cheng Jin-Woo also smiled back.

"I am leaving."

Cheng Jin-Woo walked out of the house.

Cheng Jin-Woo's house is on the ninth floor.

For the first time, he felt that the elevator was so slow.

He was eager to know what kind of dungeon the black key in his hand would lead to.

Ding.

The elevator to the first floor opened its doors consistently.

An unfamiliar uncle accidentally raised his head and saw Cheng Jin-Woo.

As if the uncle didn't know there was an S-rank hunter living here, the moment he saw Cheng Jin-Woo, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Um?"

Seong Jin-Woo put on the hood after walking past him.

I don't know if it's because I was anxious, and my pace became much faster.

Cheng Jin-Woo looked around after walking out of the community.

Looking around, there is no one on the street.

'Is it because of the portal in country R?'

Thanks to this, Cheng Jin-Woo was able to take a closer look at the black key without paying attention to his surroundings.

[Name: Key to the Temple of Cathenon]

Difficulty of getting started: ??

Type: key

' to meet the requirements. '

A key that enables access to the Temple of Cathenon.

Can be used in a portal.

The location of the designated portal will be revealed after a certain period of time.

Time remaining: 0 hours 01 minutes 02 seconds

The remaining time is 1 minute.

'......alright. '

The heart that had been calm before gradually began to thump and thump.

Cheng Jin-Woo closed his eyes, quietly listening to his own heartbeat and waiting for the last minute.

There is no need to confirm the time at all.

The biological clock that has been exercised to the extreme is already more accurate than any clock in the world.

'......three two,-. '
