“I know.”
Ganghu nodded.
The Kashmar Guild is a guild that controlled Jeon Jong-du’s Osho mercenary group behind the scenes. In fact, they treated him like a limb.
Because Master Nikolai Strack of the Casmar Guild was Jeon Jongdu’s higher compatible form.
There was a history of Jeon Jong-du respecting him as his teacher. It was possible because we had almost the same tendencies.
However, I was curious as to why the story about the Kashmar Guild suddenly appeared.
I would have understood the reason if Kim Soo-kyung, who fought alongside me, had asked.
I was shocked when Jeon Se-hyuk, who was completely unrelated, talked about a guild related to Osho’s mercenary group.
Jeon Se-hyuk added the reason for his comment as he felt that the story was said without context.
“It’s no different. “The partner who was originally with us has been kidnapped by that guild.”
“Are you from the Casmar Guild?”
“Yes, it is. “The dungeon we will be going to together this time requires three people to work together, but there is a gap.”
It was a dungeon where three people had to work together, but since there were only two people, it was natural that there would be an empty spot.
The Qashmar Guild is worse than the Osho Mercenaries.
If the Osho mercenaries feel like neighborhood gangsters, they are one large, well-organized criminal organization.
In addition, it was well packaged externally, so its image was as good as that of the Jeonghwa Guild.
In particular, due to his clear ties to Russian politics, the evaluation within Russia was full of praise.
Although Kang-hu had never seen his face, he was curious about the fate of the kidnapped hunter.
“Have you confirmed survival?”
“yes. I contacted you yesterday. “I sent them the money they asked for and decided to live for now.”
Jeon Se-hyuk’s expression is accurate.
I left to live.
This is because the money sent to the Casmar Guild is equivalent to the amount of time exchanged for lives.
After that amount of time passes, the Kashimar Guild either sells the hostages or uses them as experiments.
It is also very common for them to appear as human hunter weapons like Bezumiye.
As Kang-hoo made a bitter expression, Jeon Se-hyuk continued.
“I would like to go there and destroy everything in person, but realistically it is impossible.”
“Is this a problem that cannot be solved through Lee Hyun-seok?”
Kang-hoo’s question was a meaningful question to Jeon Se-hyuk, who is on friendly terms with Lee Hyun-seok.
In fact, Lee Hyun-seok had more friendly forces and guilds abroad than at home. The same goes for Russia.
“Asking Hyunseok for a favor was too shameful, so I kept it a secret.”
“I miss you Dongjae oppa….”
At that time.
Ban Se-young, with slightly reddened eyes, mentioned the name of the kidnapped hunter.
Dongjae. Of course, it was a name that could not be identified as anyone, but it was not a very common name either.
I carefully asked Kang-hu, who knew the contents of the original work, a name he remembered.
“Is the person named Dong-jae oppa, by any chance, Park Dong-jae? “Specialized in buff skills.”
“oh! you’re right. “Do you know Dongjae?”
“He was someone who was rumored among hunters.”
I gave an appropriate reason for Jeon Se-hyuk’s surprised reaction. It’s actually a common thing.
I thought it wasn’t true, but it turned out to be true, so Kang-hu was a little embarrassed.
Park Dong-jae.
He is a very talented buffer who is nicknamed the Mad Conductor.
In the original work, Jang Si-hwan blocked the possibility of a connection between Shin Kang-hoo and Park Dong-jae.
There were many reasons.
One of them was because Jang Si-hwan killed Park Dong-jae’s teacher, Bok Hyeong-seok.
Although there was a justification for punishing evildoers and implementing justice, that was only the winner’s argument.
Anyway, from Jang Si-hwan’s perspective, Park Dong-jae, who was a disciple of a villain and dreamed of revenge on his teacher, was a thorn in his side.
Moreover, Park Dong-jae began to take interest in Shin Kang-hoo as he emerged as Jang Si-hwan’s rival.
Jang Si-hwan felt threatened and killed him. It was an assassination in which many of the guild’s elites were mobilized.
‘Having Park Dong-jae next to you is an absolute plus. It’s not just ordinary addition, it’s almost like multiplication.’
Until now, Kang-hoo has been attracted to the abilities of characters like Ban Se-young and Jeong Yu-ri.
If you compare Park Dong-jae next to him, it’s not even worth talking about.
This is because buffer support is very important for Ganghu, who packs maximum power into a single attack.
Park Dong-jae was a hunter who could give Kang-hoo wings in the truest sense.
‘I wish I could save it. Because of something like this, its appearance in the original work was delayed significantly.’
After learning the behind-the-scenes story, I understood why the connection with Shin Kang-hu came late in the original work.
Clearly, Park Dong-jae is a hunter worth utilizing. Kang-hu wanted to connect with him somehow.
It was an instinctive intuition, but at the same time, it was also because he rationally recognized that he was a hunter who was a good fit for him.
I decided to give Jeon Se-hyuk a little boost. It would be too incongruous to step forward on your own.
“I think it would be good to get help from Hyunseok Lee. “You can’t ignore your partner’s fate.”
“I’m really thinking about it seriously.”
“If necessary, I will also lend my strength.”
It was a voluntary decision from Ganghu, who rarely steps forward unless money is involved.
Jeon Se-hyuk thought that Kang-hoo, the client, could not have simply offered to help out of good faith.
But there can be no malicious intent. So are people good? Jeon Se-hyuk smiled strangely.
* * *
after. Putting aside the story about Park Dong-jae for a moment, the dungeon-related briefing proceeded quickly.
Jeon Se-hyuk and Ban Se-young, who already had strategy experience, took turns explaining the content.
“First of all, the level of the dungeon is determined by the average level of the three people.”
“No problem.”
Kanghu nodded at Jeon Se-hyuk’s words.
If you take the average score of yourself and Jeon Se-hyuk and Ban Se-young, it would be around 250.
It was perfect for the level of difficulty and level I wanted. That was enough for now.
Ban Se-young continued his explanation.
“The dungeon structure is a closed maze type. “To go to the next room, there must be a hunter in the front room.”
“It looks like the door is closing.”
“That’s right.”
“Then what if there is only one hunter in the room where the strategy will be carried out, rather than in the front room?”
“The room is not activated at that time. In other words, two people are required to challenge each person in the front room.”
“What about tricks with objects or machines?”
“I’ve tried many things, but nothing has worked so far.”
In that case, one person is actually a bystander. It would be more accurate to say that it is used to fill the mind.
Sure enough, Jeon Se-hyuk confirmed Kang-hoo’s thoughts.
“I will be in charge of maintaining the corridor. “Please focus on conquering the maze dungeon with Seyoung.”
“You are going for your cousin. “In terms of experience, you would have no income at all.”
“what. Sometimes I need to rest too. “I’m taking a break while also checking Seyoung’s skills.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“The boss monster is also a 3-person teamwork system, so there is a need to work together well. Would you like to move?”
“It looks like you have a training ground, right?”
“yes. From there, I think each person just needs to check their basic direction. “Because the positions do not overlap.”
The more skilled hunters are, the more important it is for them to work well together.
Because they have high confidence in themselves, they are often indifferent to connecting with others.
Jeon Se-hyuk owns a 6-story building as his personal office. How big is his training facility?
Ganghu began to move to the training ground with expectations of his wealth.
It was also the first formal training ground I visited since waking up in this world.
* * *
‘also.’
As expected, Jeon Se-hyuk was using an entire training center building.
From the looks of it, it looks like he bought the land and built the building there himself.
Right next to it was Haeyoung Guild’s 5th training ground.
Before entering, I made eye contact with the hunters from Haeyoung’s guild, and they all greeted Jeon Se-hyuk politely.
Of course, he didn’t seem to recognize Kang Hu who was next to Jeon Se-hyuk. Because it is not a known face.
Anyway, when I went inside, I saw all kinds of expensive training facilities.
There was also a simulation facility, which was expensive equipment that even created a virtual dungeon environment.
In addition, nearly 10 sets of expensive training uniforms equipped with highly sensitive sensors were prepared.
It was a feast of the best equipment, with hundreds of billions of won easily spent to build this training center.
“Change into your training clothes. Let’s set the training level to 300. “It’s better to be high than low.”
“Of course.”
I received a suggestion from Jeon Se-hyuk.
There is a feeling that training is not a real battle in itself, so tension is bound to drop.
So it was common to intentionally raise the level one or two levels higher.
After a while.
Training took place.
The concept of the virtual training was ‘evasion’ and ‘sniping’.
Due to the structure of the maze dungeon, which involves many long-distance attacks, avoidance was often a top priority and was essential.
In the case of sniping, it was necessary as it was a preliminary inspection to ensure that Ban Se-young would support Kang-hoo from the rear.
About 5 hours of intensive training took place without any breaks.
According to Jeon Se-hyuk, it was the first time he had trained for such a long time.
Even when he trained with Park Dong-jae in the past, he usually got exhausted after about 3 hours.
However, Kanghu did not make a single groan throughout the training and concentrated while sweating in silence.
So the training ended.
The remaining two people talked while Kanghu washed off his sweaty body in a separate shower room.
The topic of conversation was Ganghu, who is not here right now.
“brother. saw? Clean hit zero damage. “This is Seongyu oppa’s training that appears in the results analysis table.”
“I saw. “That’s amazing.”
“Is this a situation that will end in ‘Awesome’? “Even though it was training, I wasn’t hit even once.”
“If it were someone else, I would have been more surprised and said that. But I told you before. “Mr. Jeong Seon-gyu is an assassin with sufficient skills to be recognized.”
“Furthermore, I threw the dagger a total of 29 times and never missed.”
“Skills and fundamentals don’t lie.”
Jeon Se-hyuk knew from the beginning that Kang Hu was an unusual person.
This is the man who defeated Kang Dong-hyun’s hunting dog, Cha So-hee, one-on-one. After overcoming a level difference of nearly three times.
Since he was already a different hunter from the beginning, it was paradoxically not surprising that he showed amazing results.
I thought it was natural.
That was the reason why I thought of Kang Hoo as a replacement for Park Dong-jae without any regrets. Because they have proven skills.
‘For Seyoung to grow further, she needs someone as talented as Shin Kang-hoo who can play in front of her.’
Jeon Se-hyuk thought so.
The relationship with Kang-hu was very important in order to create a solid foundation for the growth of his cousin.
If I was able to save Park Dong-jae and bring him back later, I wanted to have him by Kang-hoo’s side as well.
This was Jeon Se-hyuk’s confidence, as his eyes were opened to hunters after experiencing all kinds of dogfights.
The only thing Kanghu lacks is level. I already had all the potential and skills.
Turning a blind eye to such a talented person is something we can never forget.
This is because it is a huge loss in itself.
