What Seong-hyeon demanded of the president was not to even come close to him in addition to a reasonable price.

Uncle’s debt was still there, but it was impossible to rush.

In addition, the first-class beast beast tourism business, which was originally planned by the president, was completely changed and became a business purely for protection.

This means that there is no need to demolish the surrounding buildings.

The store the boss had purchased would either be returned as is, or would be sold entirely at their will.

The land that the president can use is all the land.

Or, it was all about the land that was traded after an agreement with the shop owners.

Some people would leave their seats because they could get the full price with a little risk, and there would be others who stayed like the uncle.

“I will go back to the association first. If there is anything you need more of my strength, please contact me. Do you still have my business card?”

“uh…”

Sunghyun was momentarily taken aback.

I got it a long time ago, and I couldn’t even remember because I wasn’t interested in what Sammy suggested.

“Haha, it’s fine. Seeing Hunter Kim bewildered, it seems that my business card has run out of value.”

Sammy once again handed Seonghyeon his business card.

“It’s okay to throw this away too.”

“…I will let you have it.”

Sammy smiled and returned to the association.

Seonghyeon also didn’t have a specific schedule, and went back to the hotel to prepare for the first-class door subjugation.

After Seong-hyeon returned to the hotel, the boss first appeared around his uncle’s shop.

There was a saying not to even come close, but in order to pay the price properly, I had to do it myself.

“Hmmm… that, so. Last time I made a mistake and couldn’t pay properly.”

“…”

The shopkeepers looked at the owner with a very suspicious look.

The last time I met the president, the president showed an attitude as if he didn’t need to, not even following the basics, let alone manners, but within a few days, the person changed completely.

“Oh, yes. So how much…”

“We will set the market price before the first-class door overflows.”

“Yes? me, really? But why suddenly…”

“Well, something like that happened. There will be no other conditions or pressures, so you are free to choose.”

The boss pulled out the contract he had prepared in advance and handed it to him.

The store owner looked at the contract for a long time, then handed it to the boss again and said,

“it’s okay. Go back.”

“…are you saying you won’t sell it?”

“Yes. It’s a place I’ve been protecting since my grandfather’s day, but if it ends on my own, I think the guilt would be too great.”

“…”

For a moment, the boss made a strange expression.

Even though there was a difference of more than three times the amount, he said that he would not sign the contract.

“Then why did you sign the contract last time…”

“Because I was afraid.”

“fear…”

They felt what they felt for Seong-hyeon.

In fact, they knew at first glance why they signed the contract.

just fear.

Until I met Seong-hyeon, I was even quite proud of being the object of fear.

Things you can’t even make eye contact with.

Humans who can rest under their feet and sleep to their heart’s content.

However, after experiencing it once, I understand how they feel.

“If I was destined to be demolished even if I didn’t sign a contract, I would rather sign a contract and protect my family. Two young daughters…”

“It has become a family business.”

The boss spoke hard and got up from his seat and left the store as it was, and the store owner looked at the back of the boss.

He couldn’t see his expression, but he had a feeling that something had changed.

So, the president stopped by all the places he had signed a contract with in just one day and finished the job.

About one-third said they would keep the store without selling it, and the rest thanked the boss and re-signed the contract.

And the last place I stopped by was my uncle’s shop.

“Come on…ah.”

As soon as you see yourself, your eyes sink coldly.

But strangely, there was no fear in those eyes.

“Just a little longer…”

“It’s done.”

“Yes?”

“It’s done.”

“What…”

The boss wrinkled his eyebrows and said to the uncle, who did not understand the meaning of his words.

“Ah, okay, just keep doing business.”

“Ah… I will definitely pay you back…”

“Just write. I’ll pretend it didn’t exist.”

In fact, the president was not a very popular person.

It was just a coincidence that I came across a lot of money, and based on that, I jumped into a redevelopment project to get to a higher place.

‘This is not my place.’

But he was a quick-witted boss.

Until then, no place had been able to block the path of the president, but when he was a little more greedy, a huge wall appeared.

The business would continue, but to go further, you had to have what you didn’t have, and the way would be to take someone else’s.

Perhaps it was because he had encountered an incredibly high and huge wall from the beginning, and the will of the president was completely broken.

‘If Hunter Kim Seong-hyun made up his mind…’

Killing yourself wouldn’t have been a problem.

But Sung-hyun didn’t kill himself.

He wasn’t making any unreasonable demands, he was just asking for what he had done, to take care of himself.

The boss, who had been eating while thinking about it, soon regained consciousness and realized that there was a big problem with the food and got up with a kick.

“And let’s develop some cooking skills. What is this?”

After grunting for a while, the boss just left the store.

“What… is it?”

The evening had passed and the uninvited customer came as the store was about to close, and left an unexpected gift.

The man who had even cleaned up the store sat alone at the empty dark store table and fell into thoughts.

Yesterday, Sunghyun and Richie showed their unsightly appearance, and the very next day, today, everything was resolved.

“I think it must be related…”

If there is one problem, it is the attitude of the boss.

The attitude of the president shown today did not look like a person who was forced by someone to move.

It was an attitude of giving from the heart, not following someone’s orders.

If he had been in Rich or Seonghyeon’s position, he wouldn’t have done this to the point where he only had to pay back the money.

Because this was a level that completely changed a person.

“What am I going to think about? You just have to think that something good has happened.”

Just one thing that bothers me.

I remembered the last words the president had left.

‘Let’s improve our cooking skills. What is this?!’

“…”

The old man, who was about to leave work, turned back and headed for the kitchen.

healthy body.

Lost debts and worries.

Although the number of visitors has decreased, it is a problem that cannot be solved unless the first-class door disappears, so the man’s heart became lighter.

“Developing a new menu once…”

After finding all the expired ingredients, the man spent the night smiling happily after a very long time that day.

——————————————–

The day before the first-class gate subjugation schedule.

Sunghyun had dinner with Richie.

To keep the promise I made the last time too much, and to let you know how I handled your uncle’s business.

“…by doing this. You won’t have to worry about this in the future.”

“Really… you did it perfectly. Rumors are circulating that people are completely different?”

“Strictly speaking, I didn’t change anything. It’s because you found the opportunity and changed it yourself.”

“Thank you. If it were me, I’d probably just pay the money back. Then he must have apologized to me. Even with guilt.”

Richie knew the man better than anyone else, so I really liked the way Seonghyun handled it.

“More than that, tomorrow is the first-class door subjugation, didn’t we talk about it? The association is much quieter than I thought.”

“The association is not much different from ours as long as we have grasped the first-class door, but the actual experience is overwhelming. It is entirely up to us, and the association only supports it.”

“Will it be the same as the last subjugation?”

“yes. Until the boss shows up.”

“How about the boss of the first-class door compared to the second-class door that was mutated back then?”

“I do not know.”

Seonghyeon tilted her head slightly, not knowing what “don’t know” meant, and Richie continued explaining.

“Before we even checked the appearance of the first-class door boss, we all got out.”

“The word escaped…”

“Right. I ran away.”

The fact that the world’s number one hunter ran away was no different than that of mankind.

“To be honest, when I first entered the first-class door, I thought I would be able to subdue the boss. The magical power emitted by the first-class door was not as strong as I thought.”

Richie recalled the events of that day.

The moment the first-class door boss appears.

“The first-class door that is now open was not a door.”

“The door… wasn’t it?”

“yes. The dimension that used to block the magic emitted by the first-class door boss created a crack.”

“It’s a lot of magic.”

In response to Seonghyeon’s reaction that it wasn’t a big deal, Richie burst out laughing as if it was funny.

“Fop. Anyway, we immediately came out of the door as soon as we felt the magic. We didn’t ask each other, but we must have instinctively thought that we couldn’t win.”

He looked a little gloomy, but Richie said with a smile.

“But that won’t happen now. If Hunter Kim is here, the story will be different.”

“Haha, you seem to be getting a lot more trust than you think?”

“Because you deserve it. Are you an American hero? It saved an incredible 130,000 lives.”

“Well, I won’t deny it.”

At Seonghyun’s words, the two burst into laughter at the same time.

“Tomorrow…don’t leave my side.”

“Are you protecting me again?”

“Am I the strongest? It is the duty of a strong man. To protect those who are weaker than me.”

“It’s nice to hear. I’ll stick with you until you tell me to fall.”

The two exchanged smiles with each other.

In the past, if we shared fake smiles with each other to figure out who we were and what kind of hunter we were, now it wasn’t.

Now that we understand each other well.

The smiles we shared now were the first smiles of mutual trust.

“then. Shall I just go in?”

“yes. See you tomorrow.”

In preparation for the decisive battle tomorrow, Seonghyeon and Richie shook hands lightly and went back to each other’s rooms.

so the next day.

For the first time in mankind, all the top-level hunters who go out for the perfect subjugation of the first-class gate have gathered in one place.

It was the same number of people and the same schedule compared to before, but with the addition of the fact that the subjugation was completed perfectly, everyone’s faces were immersed in tension.

With the brief speech of the president of the association, the first-class subjugation of the gates, which is being watched not only by the United States but also by everyone around the world, has now begun.

“I wish you good luck.”

After the final greetings of the president of the association, the top hunters representing each country disappeared into the first-class door.
