Moreover, IDEA is the largest guild in Korea. Even though I had been summoned by Chae Gohae once before, and no matter how close I was with Chae Goya, it didn’t mean I frequently received calls from the guild master.6036bb2378575d53
Soon, Chae Gohae’s relaxed voice came through the receiver.a7d91f8890eb1d4c

— Hunter Kang Baram, 0b6272a1b6 is it okay to d0dca1f432 talk now?30121245bf738a31
It felt like I should say yes even if it wasn’t. Come to think of it, he really isn’t like Chae Goya. Not in looks, voice, or even speech.b517ed0631903040

Chae Gohae hadn’t done anything wrong to me. But since he openly disregarded Chae Goya in front of me, it was hard to have good feelings toward him.e8f83e65d2b8e037
Moreover, he instinctively felt like a dangerous person. Whenever I faced him, I couldn’t shake off the uneasy feeling. It was as if a hundred sly snakes were writhing in his stomach.755fc5697e822c0d

Goya is a capable adult; he could have asked me directly. Or is this a secret request behind Goya’s back? My thoughts were all tangled up in confusion.37eca34f382b4d1a

I knew that. Goya’s timid personality wasn’t just shaped by his brother’s overshadowing presence.ac233fe2b18861c1
Unlike his highly respected 65e0476a9b brother, Goya was a dfa51533de middling C-rank with summoning a363df5ac2 defense abilities. Even the creatures he e74d80d1d6 summoned were Imoogis, not 8256add074 dragons.

Crushed by Chae Gohae’s words, I held my watch tightly and calmed my breathing. It was a relief it wasn’t a video call. I almost couldn’t control my expression.d0630cdcc667a4a7
Fine, I admit I’m a bit of a slacker. I’ll gladly take responsibility for Goya’s training. Even with a 3-minute limit time, I can use my SS-rank abilities again after just a 10-minute rest.b9483adfc86c2b4f
