“Really?”
“How much do they look alike?”

“I saw a picture of him, and he looks a little bit like an actor or an idol. He’s more delicate and handsome than hunter Kim Minjun.”
“Wow. Really? Where can I see the pictures?”

At Choi Euiseong’s words, the S-class hunters began to get excited and search for Minjun’s photo. Watching them from the sidelines, Soohyuk swallowed a bitter laugh.
The first generation of S-class hunters had literally crossed the firing line together, and as such, they owed a huge sense of debt to hunter Kim Minjun.

The day of the second cataclysm, when the ten-headed hydra appeared in Seoul, there was only one S-class hunter outside of the dungeon who could handle it, Choi Euiseong. He was certainly a powerful hunter. But he couldn’t take on the hydra alone.
Spewing poison, acid, ice, and fire from each of its ten heads, the hydra ravaged Songpa and the northern part of Gangnam, and hunter Kim Minjun, who had just closed the dungeon, had ended up perishing along with it.

According to several witnesses, hunter Kim Minjun was bleeding black from his eyes, mouth, nose, and ears. His last words were that there was no way to save his life because of the curse, so he would die with hydra. Despite Choi Euiseong’s urging, hunter Kim Minjun jumped toward the Hydra.
Initially, the focus was on the damage caused rather than the sacrifice of the hunter Kim Minjun, but that changed when it became known that the ten-headed hydra had appeared not only in Seoul but in major cities around the world.

Delhi, Shanghai, Beijing, São Paulo, Mexico City, and New York burned. Countries fought the hydra with all their might, but the damage was enormous nevertheless. Most importantly, cities that failed to eradicate hydra were literally devastated. If the hydra hadn’t died out after 122 hours, they might not have been able to count the damage.
As the world watched the situation unfold in real time, people began to call the hunter Kim Minjun a hero, and no one could deny that his sacrifice saved Seoul.

The first generation of S-class hunters took the lead in honoring the heroism of hunter Kim Minjun. While some had criticized hunter Kim Minjun for being indifferent, stubborn, and that he was so nice that he was like a pushover, they knew that it was only because they missed him.
“He’s not his son, he’s not a relative, I’ve run all the tests.”

Soohyuk explained to the S-class hunters beforehand so they wouldn’t have any other misconceptions. Some were disappointed, but others laughed it off saying it was fine either way because he looked good.
Meanwhile, the food began to be served. Everyone had a good appetite, so there were plenty of bowls of delicious food on the table.

Everyone kept their chopsticks busy and their stomachs full. The drinkers didn’t miss a chance to drink, emptying their glasses over and over again. The higher-ranked hunters were the most sober and drank whole bottles of high-grade liquor. Soohyuk, who hated alcohol, only filled his stomach.
After drinking and eating in moderation, Seo Wooju opened his mouth.

“It was mentioned that we should have a hunter competition this year. What do you think?”
The hunter competition was literally a battle of the hunters against each other. It was an irregular event that had been held twice so far, and both times Soohyuk won, causing a public stir.

Eager for revenge, the S-class hunters were all in favor of the hunter competition held for the first time in three years. Soohyuk, of course, was one of them.
Seo Wooju’s next topic was serious.

“As everyone knows, there’s a growing number of hunters in our country who are exhibiting unusual behavior, and the media has picked up on it. The government is trying to stop it, but there’s only so much they can do, so we don’t know when it might exacerbate drastically. Everyone be prepared.”
Soohyuk and all the other S-class hunters wore grave expressions as they heard the warning. As Seo Wooju had said, there had been an increasing number of hunters acting strangely lately. One by one, hunters were losing their minds like they were addicted to drugs, walking around like zombies, glowing, or suddenly dying.

At first, they thought it was just the effect of dungeons and monsters. But recently, the number had been slowly increasing, and not only in Korea, but in other countries as well. The problem was highlighted by a recent spate of hunter suicides in the U.S. They didn’t know exactly why, as hunters who exhibited idiosyncrasies had died without coming to their senses.
Still, it was revealed that the hunters had something in common: they had been drugged.

“I think you’ve said this once before. Isn’t this a new drug or something? Have they done any research?”
“I’m suspicious of that too, but he says it’s not drugs.”

Guild leader Lee Hana of the Lucky Guild responded to Seo Wooju’s question. The S-class hunters each had their own opinions.
It seemed to be a drug that only responded to hunters. There were so many suspicious drugs these days that it was hard to investigate. If this got out of hand and public opinion worsened, it could lead to a law to regulate hunters.

The biggest concern for S-class hunters was the legalization of state control of hunters. Governments were wary of state control of hunters because of the negative side effects and backlash in many countries. But there was always a strong politician who made outrageous claims. When you mix political logic with public opinion, you never know what could happen.
“We have a request to capture a witness alive and as sane as possible.”

At the request of the Seo Wooju, the S-class hunters chimed in.
“Should we investigate?”

“It is only possible if there is a sign.”
“Can’t the National Security Agency just come and check it out?”

“I thought they already did?”
Everyone grumbled, but no one said they couldn’t do it. Soohyuk nodded in agreement. This wasn’t just about finding drug addicts and distributors. It was about eliminating the dangers that were destroying the coexistence of hunters and the general public, so it was only right that an S-class hunter should step up to the plate.

That fulfilled the purpose of today’s gourmet ingredient exhaustion meeting. While everyone was focused on eating and drinking, Soohyuk was getting restless again.
As he thought about something he had to do with a twenty-year-old, a conscience that he didn’t have kept coming to him.

Minjun realized that the information he had was to the norms of the other world, so whenever he had time, he would search this and that up, especially on WeTube. WeTube was flooded with videos about hunters, dungeons, and monsters. He’d find a channel he liked and binge-watch for hours.

Back at the safe house with a full stomach of chicken, Minjun was watching WeTube on the TV while waiting for Soohyuk.
“It’s still early days.”

After searching through several videos, Minjun came to a simple conclusion. The gap between Earth, 12 years after the cataclysm, and the other world, over 150 years after the demon king’s descent, was simply too great to compare.
There were far more monsters and items in the other world, not to mention hunter class subdivisions. Earth’s human population was still in its infancy.

“I’d better be careful.”
Minjun reminded himself to remember that he was twenty years old and a newbie who knew very little about hunters.

A hunter’s instinctive senses were acutely aware of discomfort. The S-class was almost an animal. Dealing with Soohyuk wasn’t as difficult as the first time, but it never hurt to be cautious.
Rattle.

Minjun had been watching TV for a while when he heard the front door open and jumped out of his seat. There was only one person who could come at this hour. Sure enough, it was Soohyuk, the same guy he’d seen in the afternoon.
Minjun knew at a glance that he was in a bad mood.

“Hello?”
“There you are.”

“Yes.”
Minjun leaned closer to Soohyuk and smelled the strong odor of alcohol.

“Have you been drinking?”
“Do you smell it?”

“Very.”
“I wasn’t drinking. Someone spilled a drink on my pants.”

Soohyuk gently lifted his right foot. It was dry now, but it had been soaked from the knees down by the alcohol spilled by the Lucky Guild leader. The S-class hunters, who were immune to poison, couldn’t get drunk, so they drank more wildly and reveled in their inebriation.
“Are you sure you haven’t been drinking? They say if you drink too much, you might not be able to get erect.”

“…It’s not like that.”
At Minjun’s suspicious question, Soohyuk answered feeling miffed, but then he clicked his tongue inwardly; strangely, he couldn’t keep his composure when dealing with Minjun.

It was more humiliating to be told he couldn’t get erect than to be misunderstood for drinking. He was only in his late 20s.
Soohyuk was about to protest, but he held back. This was something that had to be proven through actions, not words.

It felt like a lie to say that he was nervous about having to do this with a twenty-year-old. As he stared at Minjun’s face looking up at him, he could picture him gasping for air, and it was so arousing that it made Soohyuk feel hot.
Once he made up his mind to ring, his conscience disappeared and his motivation grew. It was right to do what he had to do anyway.

“Did you look inside? The master bedroom is on the second floor. Have you washed up?”
“I’ve only been in the living room, and I haven’t washed up yet.”

Soohyuk walked up the stairs with Minjun. The first floor was mostly common areas like the kitchen, dining room, living room, and study. Sleeping quarters were on the second and third floors.
