Civil Servant Hunter’S S-Class Resignation Log Chapter 159

Episode 159

* * *

“Welcome. “I was waiting.”

Mumbai Airport, India. The person who came out to meet Seora was not an employee of the Indian Association, but an Athena mercenary wearing a black combat uniform.

“My name is Rani Sharma from the Athena Asia branch. “It’s an honor to meet Headbang Hunter.”

“Please just call me Yoon Seo-ra. Sharma Hunter….”

“Please call me Rani too. I belong to the unit directly under Branch Manager Yoon Jae-heon. From here, I will guide you. “I’m from India so I know the roads well, so don’t worry.”

ah. At Rani’s introduction, Seo-ra learned that Ali had sent her with great care. There is no way an employee working under Yoon Jae-heon would treat Seo-ra carelessly. They will probably explain the situation in as much detail as possible.

Rani said that since the dungeon is a bit far away, we will travel by light plane from here. As expected, she explained the situation in detail as we boarded the plane with Athena’s emblem on it.

“It has been about two months since the branch manager entered the Indian dungeon. Since it wouldn’t take this long unless it was a labyrinth, additional reinforcements were dispatched, but not all of them returned. So, it seems the leader is currently guessing that it might be a maze dungeon.”

“okay.”

Ali noticed it too. but. Gate seats cannot be used and exits are difficult to find, so the only thing that takes a long time to escape is the maze dungeon.

There are only two ways to escape the maze. All you have to do is find an exit or destroy the core of the maze.

“Are all Asian branch members capable of combat included?”

“no. There must be no hole in Athena’s power. Therefore, the leader also requested support from Hunter Seo-ra Yoon.”

Seo-ra was planning to come running regardless of whether she requested it or not, but she didn’t bother to say that to Rani.

“But it seems like the Korean association hasn’t made an official announcement about this yet.”

“Oh, I won’t announce it. “This is not Korea’s response to the leader’s request, but something I personally received.”

“Is that so?”

Rani looked a little puzzled, but didn’t ask for details. It is not good for Athena, a stateless group, to care about the affairs of other countries.

“Im here.”

How many hours have passed since I boarded the light plane? The place we arrived was a plateau. Because it occurred deep in an uninhabited forest, it did not seem to be officially known. The people gathered are all awakened people.

Among them, the first person who caught my eye was Ali Russo, who had a sturdy physique.

“Are you here?”

“It’s been a while, Captain.”

As soon as Seo-ra arrived, all eyes turned to her. There were some envious looks, some wary, and quite a few of them filled with worry and regret.

The last people are probably those who are concerned about the branch leader’s younger brother who entered the dungeon.

“Thank you for taking the long way to come. “My name is Rahul Khan from the Indian Association.”

“This is Yoon Seo-ra. “If possible, I want to hear the situation right away.”

“Let me explain from the beginning. India, who was trying to conquer the dungeon, was the first to feel suspicious and reported it to WDO. WDO, who also thought it was strange that the difficulty level was higher than the measured level, asked us to collaborate. The agenda that came up at the WDO meeting after conquering the labyrinth. “It might have something to do with it.”

Seora nodded at Ali’s explanation. The dungeon is connected to another planet. That’s what she knows.

“How many hunters are there currently?”

“India’s five S-class hunters and three Athena S-class hunters are missing. The number of hunters below Class A is higher than that. However, no one has returned alive yet, so I am assuming it is a maze dungeon, but even so, it is definitely strange.”

That was correct. Eight S-class people. These are Athena and India’s hunters, who are considered the best in the world. No matter how maze the dungeon is, it is normal for at least one person to finish clearing it.

“That’s why I asked you for support. Because you have spatial abilities. It might be a maze where you can’t use magic, so you might be more helpful than Kang Se-jun. If it weren’t for that…”

Ali, who had been talking non-stop, trailed off for the first time. It seemed uncomfortable for her to say that Yoon Jae-heon had gone missing and that he had called his younger brother.

“But did you really come alone? There’s no way Song Hanna would send you to such a dangerous place alone.”

“The Korean Association did not accept the director’s request, but I came at my own discretion. And the other two L-class members stayed behind and had work to do. Seong Ja-rim remembered one new piece of information.”

Ali, who was the only one in the room who knew Seong Ja-rim’s identity, arched his eyebrows. Seo-ra left the place with only her.

“After conquering the 8th floor of the Labyrinth, the nature of the world’s dungeons has changed.”

“what? What are you talking about?”

“Right before I came here, I closed down a level 2 dungeon that had formed on the bottom of the Korean sea. “The owner of that place was none other than the god Hephaestus.”

Ali rubbed his chin. A look of confusion appeared on his face, as if he was wondering if that was even possible.

“Of course, it was an alter body, not the real body. I don’t know if it should be called a monster, not a god… but there was something similar to that. “It is said that there is a possibility that gods will appear in future dungeons.”

“A double body of God? Do we have to fight against that now?”

“It is said that the power is weaker than the true body. Of course, God is God, but fortunately, he cooperated with me and was easily eliminated. However, not all gods are like this, so conquering dungeons will become more dangerous in the future. And…”

Seora’s eyes turned to the gate in the center. The flow of the gate, shimmering with bright blue light, looked somewhat ominous.

“Maybe God’s influence is in that dungeon as well.”

“I’m going to be amazed. Why did it suddenly change?”

“Seong Ja-rim says it is the influence of the 9th floor of the Labyrinth. “I don’t know what will come out of there, but it could be a pretty big danger.”

“what? But why are you saying this now? “You didn’t say anything during the meeting after conquering the 8th floor.”

“They say they forgot about the changes in the dungeon. “It happened decades ago on that planet.”

Ali kept his mouth shut. Because Seong Ja-rim smiles so brightly, I keep forgetting about it. The fact that she lived on another planet for a whopping 108 years.

“That can’t be helped. “Then what on earth happens on the 9th floor?”

“I don’t know about that either. Even if we knew in advance, we couldn’t stop it, and it would only increase confusion, putting the world in danger, so we just said we would remain silent. They said they would reveal it once the news of flowering became known, so I have no choice but to wait.”

“Wow. If it had been before, I would have thought that was nonsense… but since this is the experience of an elderly person who has lived for 108 years, I cannot make a hasty judgment.”

In fact, Seong Ja-rim’s judgment may be more appropriate than those who know nothing. Ali eventually nodded.

“While we are raiding the dungeon, Seong Ja-rim reports the incident to WDO?”

“yes.”

“Then let’s leave that behind and focus on conquering the dungeon.”

Ali provided auxiliary support items to Seora. The inventory was filled with emergency food, potions and emergency rescue supplies. Seo-ra changed into combat uniform and put on a jacket.

“What are your plans?”

“Hunters below S rank focus on identifying survivors and fighting monsters. You and I search for the exit or the core of the maze. “If it’s our senses, it’s probably better than the others.”

“I want to find my brother first.”

The reason Seo-ra came here was not to conquer the dungeon, but to save Yoon Jae-heon. She is not a good hero like her mother, and those who enter this place are also not non-awakened. I had no intention of saving them first, leaving Yoon Jae-heon behind.

“I thought your brother was the only one with a lot of personality, but now I see that you are also an idiot?”

“If your brother joined a mercenary group at a young age to protect his only remaining sibling, wouldn’t he naturally want to protect his brother by risking his life?”

“what the. “You are right.”

Ali shook his head with a puzzled look on his face. Since they are siblings who get along so well, they must have said they would wear that damn placard like a cape. Ali muttered.

“Then, after rescuing Yoon Jae-heon, find the core. “That doesn’t matter, right?”

“of course.”

Seora is neither a member of Athena nor a citizen of India, where the dungeon took place. Even though they had come in response to a request for assistance, the two ended their agreement as there was no reason to take Ali’s orders, which might be considered a favor.

“Listen Athena! The plan is as I said before. “Gate stones are useless in the maze dungeon, so aim to survive as much as possible!”

“yes!”

A loud reply followed. Indeed, a mercenary group. Their loyalty was so high that it could not be compared to any other guild.

“Then let’s go in!”

About ten hunters, including Seora and Ali, entered. When I felt a little dizzy and opened my eyes again, Seo-ra was alone.

?Awakened person Seo-ra Yoon entered the level 2 dungeon ‘Endless Road’.?

“The maze….”

When Seo-jun Kang heard about the maze, Seo-ra thought of the kind of maze a person would normally think of. It’s surrounded by a solid wall and you can only go forward.

However, the maze that now unfolded before her eyes was different from what she knew before. First of all, it was difficult to secure visibility because the grass was thick like a forest and the fog was thick. With her like this, other awakened people can barely see what’s in front of them.

“Now that I think about it, that’s the original meaning of the maze.”

A maze does not simply mean a path. A path where it is difficult to know the direction and whose beginning and end are unknown is called a maze. The walled labyrinth was made most famous by Labyrinth of Crete, but the actual labyrinths come in many different forms.

“It’s harder to find an exit in a place like this.”

When I raised my head, I saw a dark ceiling. I don’t know if that’s the night sky or the cave wall. It was just black so I couldn’t tell what it was.

There was a thick fog surrounding me and the grass was roughly raised rather than a path, so I couldn’t figure out which direction to go.

However, she did not panic and called her only companion.

“Administrator.”

A nine-tailed fox with majestic nine tails appeared out of thin air. Seo-ra cupped his cheek and pressed their foreheads together.

“Help me. “Can I find my brother’s energy here?”

?Administrator: (? •?_•?)??

Seo-ra was greatly relieved to see the emoticon saying that she would cheer up.

“Then please.”

Seora immediately climbed onto the back of the nine-tailed fox and positioned herself well so as not to fall. The nine-tailed fox confirmed this and started running quickly.

Every time the nine-tailed fox’s feet passed through the grass, the swaying grass hit her arm and it was quite painful. Even though it was wearing a jacket and combat uniform, it seemed like it was not an ordinary plant seen on Earth, as it felt a subtle pain.

“for a moment!”

Even while running, Seora quickly scanned the surroundings when her eyes caught something strange. She got off the back of the nine-tailed fox that had stopped and immediately headed in that direction.

‘White bones?’

It was none other than a human bone.
