‘…Do you really believe that Hunters Jo In-young and Yu Tae-rim are still alive?’
In the case of guerrilla gates, clearing the boss would open the gate, allowing those inside to come out.
It’s been 15 years since In-young’s disappearance and 5 years for Tae-rim. If it hasn’t been resolved in all that time, the chances of survival were extremely slim.
Even Myeong-hyeon, a family member, was losing hope.
‘I’ve never met Hunter Jo In-young, but I’m sure Hunter Yu Tae-rim is not dead.’
‘On what basis?’
However, Dong-hwa spoke with a firm tone.
‘He promised to introduce me to his sister.’
‘What?’
The basis for his belief unexpectedly revolved around Tae-rim’s sister, Bomi.
‘Did Tae-rim really make such a promise to you?’
‘Yes. Hunter Yu Tae-rim is a person who keeps his promises. That’s my basis.’
‘…’
Dong-hwa’s reasoning seemed far-fetched, but Myeong-hyeon couldn’t continue the conversation.
He recalled the words Tae-rim said to him a few days before he disappeared.
‘Dad. If Chae Dong-hwa tries to get close to Bomi, block him immediately. Or tell me.’
‘Why? What’s wrong?’
‘That guy is really crazy.’
On the way home in the same car, Tae-rim grumbled.
‘But how does Chae Dong-hwa know Bomi? Did you tell him?’
‘I just showed him because I thought he was okay… I didn’t expect him to say that…’
‘Dong-hwa is okay. He might lack social skills, but he listens to you. Maybe too much.’
‘Exactly, there’s something off about him. I overlooked that.’
Tae-rim didn’t specify what happened between him and Dong-hwa.
They were usually close, so Myeong-hyeon assumed it was a minor issue and let it go.
‘But Tae-rim promised to introduce Dong-hwa to Bomi?’
Myeong-hyeon wondered why Tae-rim would say that to Dong-hwa.
And if he intended to introduce Bomi, why didn’t he tell Myeong-hyeon properly?
‘I will be introduced to his sister by Hunter Yu Tae-rim himself. Definitely.’
And why was Dong-hwa insisting on this instead of asking Myeong-hyeon, Bomi’s father?
Did he not want to let go of the hope that Tae-rim would return, or did he not permit himself to meet Bomi in any other way?
Myeong-hyeon couldn’t fathom Dong-hwa’s intentions.
‘Alright. Find Hunter Yu Tae-rim no matter what.’
He decided to hope for that improbable basis. That’s why he allowed Dong-hwa to scout the S-class dungeon alone.
Entering that dungeon alone was almost like accepting the risk of disappearance.
But if the purpose wasn’t to find Tae-rim, but to be introduced to Bomi, that was inexplicable.
Myeong-hyeon fervently hoped that this stubbornness would bring a miraculous gift to everyone.
“Master! How many do you need?”
“As many as possible. 100? 200?”
“Yes!”
I began collecting materials for crafting with Teddy. I decided to accept the reality that had befallen me.
What else could I do? The deed was done, and I was isolated here.
To survive, I realized I had to progress with the quests and operate the campground.
[‘Teddy (A)’ uses ‘Smash Down (A)’.]The ground vibrated intensely. Branches and leaves fell from the trees.
[‘Teddy (A)’ uses ‘Swing (A)’.]With a single punch, rocks shattered into pieces.
[‘Teddy (A)’ uses ‘Rip (A)’.]Suddenly, the weeds seemed to cry out for mercy under the brutal touch.
“Te, Teddy! That’s enough!”
“Yes, Master. Please open your inventory!”
Hunters have a space where they can store and retrieve items, known as ‘inventory’.
The inventory could only hold items acquired from dungeons.
Since Teddy and my inventories were shared, everything he picked up neatly stacked up in it.
I had gathered about 40 items. Teddy had…
“Wow… Teddy, you’re an incredibly capable monster.”
“Hehe. Just leave it to me!”
Alone, it would have taken all day to finish.
I selected the item to craft from the ‘Crafting’ skill window.
[‘Yubom (F)’ has crafted ‘Wood’ using ‘Branches’.] [‘Yubom (F)’ has crafted ‘Fabric’ using ‘Weeds’.]
The crafting was successful. It was bittersweet to see my coins decrease, but I decided not to dwell on it for a while.
[You have completed the quest.] [You have received ‘C-Grade Camping Market Item Selection Ticket (1 time)’ as a quest reward.] [QuestUse the ‘Tent Pitching’ skill to set up tents. (0/3)
Completion Reward: Campfire (S)]
As soon as the quest completion window appeared, the next quest arrived. The reward was an S-grade item.
“Finally, time to use my exclusive skill.”
The essence of awakening was undeniably the exclusive skill. Although it was a low grade, it was my hunter identity skill.
Does using the skill complete it instantly?
“Master, you shouldn’t use the skill yet!”
Just as I was about to use the skill, Teddy cautioned me.
“Why?”
“Please check the skill information window!”
[Tent Pitching (F)Instantly creates a comfortable tent. With good luck, special effects can be granted.
Proficiency: 0%]
“If proficiency is low, the chance of failure is high. You need to set it up manually until you reach a certain level.”
