Despite the chaos and bloodshed, Korea became renowned as the most peaceful country in the world for registering hunters. The crime rate among hunters was relatively low.

This was possible because the early S-class hunters in Korea were all ordinary people. Whether they were college students, office workers, or former athletes, these S-class hunters might have pursued personal gain, but they never went against the greater good.

In contrast, some other countries were plagued by hunters who wielded unchecked power, almost like establishing their own kingdoms. Compared to them, Korea had a well-established system of hunter rights and responsibilities.

Nevertheless, there were still instances where hunters, blinded by greed, committed murder and theft.

It was almost a fact that villains couldn’t become hunters. If a hunter turned into a villain, they should lose their superhuman abilities to maintain balance. Kim Minjun believed this.

He understood that it was difficult to simply categorize human actions as good or evil. Not everything that starts with good intentions ends well, and the same goes for actions that begin with malice. The connections between people were as complex as the number of people themselves.

Still, he wished that truly bad people would lose their abilities. Especially when he saw Joo Myunghwan, who was living well despite using the curse of death, this thought grew stronger. If there was a being that created the system, he wanted to protest.

Minjun fixed his gaze on the man being dragged away by others, unaware of how Soohyuk was looking at him.

Soohyuk couldn’t take his eyes off Minjun, feeling a sense of amazement and wonder. He hadn’t expected to find someone who shared his thoughts.

Sensing the intense gaze, Minjun turned his head to look in that direction. Then he gestured as if to ask why.

Even such a simple gesture was so endearing that Soohyuk felt an urge to kiss him. However, knowing the minimum etiquette and morals in public, Soohyuk suppressed the impulse and smiled.

“I’m really good at holding back.”

“What?”

Seeing Minjun tilt his head in confusion, Soohyuk couldn’t help but reach out. Even when he lightly tousled Minjun’s hair, he didn’t avoid it and stayed still.

“I’ve had similar thoughts before.”

“Really?”

“People say it’s all about how you use a sword. But if you’re going to give someone a sword, you should also be ready to take it away based on the same criteria.”

“Exactly.”

Minjun agreed passionately. Knowing that Soohyuk shared the same thoughts made him feel a sense of kinship. However, he couldn’t understand what this had to do with being good at holding back.

“Still, you can’t live too kindly. Didn’t I tell you before? With great power comes great responsibility, but you should also be treated accordingly. Remember, there are many who will try to take advantage if you show weakness.”

“Yes.”

Minjun responded obediently to Soohyuk’s warning, which sounded like nagging. Soohyuk had always told him not to become a pushover from the start. He even used himself as an example, mentioning how he was once dragged around by the National Security Agency.

Soohyuk emphasized doing good deeds but also making a loud noise and receiving the treatment he deserved, to the point where Minjun’s ears were ringing. Not everyone agreed with that sentiment. Still, Minjun resolved to avoid doing things for free.

If he was known for being money-minded, he wouldn’t become a god. Minjun, who had no intention of becoming a god, aimed for a win-win situation.

“Let’s go get something sweet. I saw a place selling fruit juice over there.”

Soohyuk pointed to where the food trucks were. Minjun agreed once again and moved with him.

“Let’s go now.”

After making a round at the flea market, quite some time had passed. As it neared 2 PM, Soohyuk took the lead, suggesting they go see the S-class hunters. The place he led them to was beyond the Hunter Market grounds, across a four-lane road, in front of an ordinary commercial building. Unlike the bustling Hunter Market, this area had little foot traffic.

“This way.”

“Here?”

“Yeah. The office on the fourth floor.”

On the fourth floor, where Soohyuk pointed, there was a strange sign that read “Korea Happiness Meditation Room.” The yellow background with black letters didn’t stand out, but it gave off a suspicious vibe.

“This place seems odd. Are you sure it’s here?”

“Yes, let’s go.”

Without giving a proper explanation, Soohyuk started up the stairs first. Minjun had no choice but to follow. The entrance to the fourth-floor office was a plain gray door. There wasn’t even a nameplate for the Korea Fortune Meditation Room.

“I’m here.”

Soohyuk lightly knocked on the door and entered a password on an electronic pad. The old gray door opened quietly without a sound.

Inside, it was more like a storage room than an office. Old desks and piles of large and small items were stacked around. In the space that was available, a large table was set up, and the S-class hunters sat at a distance, watching the entrance.

Seo Wooju, Kwak Jonghoon, Choi Euiseong, and Lee Hana.

All the S-class hunters, except for Hwang Sujin, were gathered. And except for Seo Wooju, the rest of the S-class hunters stood up in surprise. Even though they were using perception-blocking items, their reaction was unexpected.

Only then did Minjun realize that the S-class hunters were unaware of his reawakening. It was obvious they had used their detection skills since his aura must have changed from the last time they met. They would have seen that his information was completely obscured by ■ symbols.

Minjun naturally looked at Soohyuk. Meeting his gaze, Soohyuk grinned like a villain. It was clear he had orchestrated this situation on purpose.

The usually sensible man occasionally pulled off such bizarre stunts. In any case, Soohyuk’s plan succeeded. As soon as the S-class hunters expressed their astonishment with open mouths, they stood up in alarm.

Kwak Jonghoon pointed at Minjun and said something, but no sound was heard.

“I can’t hear anything.”

When Soohyuk said this, Kwak Jonghoon pressed something in the middle of the table. Minjun belatedly realized it was a magical tool. Given that Kwak Jonghoon’s words couldn’t be heard, it was likely a sound-blocking magical tool.

“Who are you?!”

As tension soared with Kwak Jonghoon’s shout, Soohyuk patted Minjun’s back with his hand.

“Let me introduce you. He’s the ace of our guild.”

“Hello, I’m Kim Minjun.”

Minjun clicked his tongue inwardly at Soohyuk’s cheerful voice, quickly deactivating the perception-blocking item and bowing his head.

“What the…?”

“Isn’t that hunter Kim Minjun?”

“It’s really him?”

Expressions of disbelief erupted. It was understandable. The information of a hunter they thought was C-class was completely obscured.

Minjun gave Soohyuk, the biggest troublemaker, a steady look. Soohyuk just smiled as if it was nothing and glanced around at the S-class hunters.

“I told you I’d introduce our youngest member, didn’t I?”

“What on earth is going on?”

This time, it was Choi Euiseong who shouted the fastest at Soohyuk’s sly explanation. And the one who answered him wasn’t Yoon Soohyuk, but Seo Wooju.

“Reawakening, right?”

Support us by visiting our official site at lilyonthevalley.com

“Yes, that’s correct.”

Minjun confirmed, trying his best not to be conscious of Seo Wooju. That night, Minjun couldn’t tell Seo Wooju everything truthfully. He only explained that his rank had dropped because he was swept away beyond dimensions and that there was a way to become S-class again.

Seo Wooju, instead of probing further, simply expressed relief. Still, he wouldn’t have expected Minjun’s rank to recover so quickly.

“Come on, don’t just stand there like statues. Take a seat.”

At Soohyuk’s suggestion, with a satisfied smile, the S-class hunters finally sat down. Minjun also took a seat next to Soohyuk as he gestured.

Once everyone was seated, Lee Hana activated the magical tool in the center of the table. Soohyuk explained to Minjun that it was a sound-blocking magical tool.

Once everything was ready, questions poured in. The method of reawakening was the hottest topic. How many times had he entered a dungeon? Was there anything unusual on his status window? Had he done anything special besides entering dungeons? Soohyuk and Minjun answered only what they knew.

“So, should we now contact hunter Kim Minjun directly for collaboration?”

When Lee Hana mentioned collaboration, Kwak Jonghoon and Choi Euiseong’s eyes sparkled. But Soohyuk didn’t just sit back and watch.

“Hunter Kim Minjun is part of our June Guild. For the next three years, that is.”

“Isn’t he going to start his own guild? Hunter Kim Minjun? Were you threatened?”

Lee Hana asked Minjun with a serious face. Hearing Minjun shake his head and say no, Soohyuk beamed.

“But he’s still an S-class.”

“Kim Minjun said he wants to gain experience. And we promised him the best treatment.”

At Soohyuk’s response, Kwak Jonghoon and Choi Euiseong shouted that they could offer the same. However, they knew they couldn’t persuade him with just that.

“There are two S-class hunters in the June Guild?”

When Lee Hana pointed out the key point, Kwak Jonghoon and Choi Euiseong’s eyes widened in disbelief. Each S-class hunter ran their guild with their own philosophy. However, their goal was similar: to become the top guild in Korea.

Everyone knew that the June Guild had been strengthening its foundation recently. Adding another S-class hunter would significantly boost their power.
