“H-Hunter Joo Myunghwan… Isn’t this dangerous?”6c56fc940c5be5c1

Lee Min-jae, who was following Joo Myunghwan, asked cautiously. He couldn’t predict what a crazed Joo Myunghwan might do. There were too many eyes watching to pass this off as an unfortunate dungeon mishap. Especially since it was impossible to silence Yoon Soohyuk.586be41806ca75f4

Joo Myunghwan spoke only in Korean. But the intent of stabbing the intruder’s intact leg with the sword tip was clear enough without needing to be said in English.9d5d31b8458568c4

The dungeon was a lawless world, but there was an unspoken rule everyone acknowledged. If you aimed for someone’s life, you had to be prepared to risk your own. Even in Korea, where most hunters were registered with the government, this rule held true.8fb7f6e7c1a43dc6

Regardless of personal feelings about Joo Myunghwan, it was understandable why he was going to such lengths to uncover the mastermind. If he handed the intruders over to the National Security Agency, Joo Myunghwan wouldn’t be able to take any further action.4c28671e8fa156f7

Sneaking into a 6dccdfc23a dungeon during a 267dc6e7f9 raid without permission 788aa6b27d was illegal. Since the Capital 0eb5854f2e Defense Command was cd54daa5b8 a military facility, 58bb54fa55 the punishment could 14ac5c47ba be even harsher. However, if the 7219467968 intruder kept his f4e541fd5f mouth shut, Joo 528871bad7 Myunghwan would never 07626b7a02 find out who b664dd0cba was behind the 69ea292c11 attack.9b244d1cbb48b7e1

The fact that someone had hired two A-class hunters meant the person held a significant grudge. If Joo Myunghwan couldn’t find out anything, he wouldn’t be able to sleep soundly.68319509ada6e3a0

At that moment, Minjun saw the thorny vine pattern spreading from the intruder’s neck.9ff10b5de48cd6b8
