My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 103

Episode 103. Gone with the Wind

Judging by Jeong Chan-woo’s reaction, it wasn’t purely Seong Yu-mi’s stubbornness.

Well.

“It’s not that I dislike it, but I still have no intention of joining a guild.”

Though he seemed quite reluctant about it.

I turned my gaze away from Im Seung-hun, who was grumbling beside me, and looked at Seong Yu-mi and Cheon Yu-na.

Cheon Yu-na, who had been staring blankly as if her brain had stopped from the sudden proposal, quickly came to her senses and looked at Seong Yu-mi with a serious expression.

“You want to join the guild?”

“That’s right. I’ve left the Association now, so I can’t stay unaffiliated forever, can I?”

Seong Yu-mi smiled brightly as she said this and pulled out her old phone from her pocket.

As soon as she turned on the phone that had been off, Seong Yu-mi’s phone began glowing hot and vibrating.

“Look. It’s been almost a month since I left the Association, and it’s still like this.”

She had changed phones as soon as she left the Association.

And she had kept her original phone turned off, ignoring all contact.

But look at this.

Calls kept coming in as soon as she turned on the phone.

“I’m such a popular person that the world won’t leave me alone.”

An S-rank Hunter who wasn’t affiliated with anywhere.

And her skills were even guaranteed.

Every guild was desperately trying to contact her to recruit Seong Yu-mi.

However.

“Guild Master, you said you’re a fan of Black Dragon?”

“Yes, that’s right. So even if the Demon King were to join the guild, I wouldn’t give him better treatment than Black Dragon.”

“Right, that’s what I wanted.”

“…Pardon?”

I’m tired of always being in the spotlight.

Using my departure from the Association as a turning point, I just want to rest a bit now.

“Of course I don’t expect special treatment. I just don’t want it to show ‘unaffiliated’ in the guild information section registered with the Association.”

“…”

“Ah, was that too rude?”

“No, actually I feel relieved.”

Cheon Yu-na gently lifted the corners of her mouth and looked at Seong Yu-mi.

She understood exactly what Seong Yu-mi had just said.

So, in other words.

“You want to use Hwangcheon Guild as a front.”

“That’s right. Actually, I’ve earned enough money.”

The ratio didn’t matter.

As long as there were no useless clauses, anything was fine.

“Of course, that’s just my story though.”

But that was a story limited to Seong Yu-mi alone.

Jeong Chan-woo and Im Seung-hun were different cases.

But no further discussion was needed.

From this short conversation alone, Cheon Yu-na had grasped the entire situation.

“The settlement ratio is 8 to 2. How does that sound?”

“Is that just for me?”

“No, for all three of you here.”

Jeong Chan-woo widened his eyes in surprise at Cheon Yu-na’s words.

“Isn’t 7 to 3 the standard principle for most guilds?”

“That’s right.”

Guilds do more than they appear to.

People affiliated with guilds originally don’t go directly to auction houses or trading posts to sell monster byproducts.

The guild does all of that for them too.

A place that assists Hunters so they can live like proper Hunters.

While also providing all support supplies free of charge.

That’s what a guild was.

Therefore, while a 7 to 3 settlement ratio was common, this case was different.

“Since the Demon King spoke honestly, I’ll be honest too. I’m not stupid – why would I refuse this?”

One S-rank Hunter and two A-rank Hunters were saying they wanted to join the guild themselves.

And they were all people whose skills and character were guaranteed.

Anyone who would refuse this would definitely be at least a fool or an idiot.

“I’d like to offer 9 to 1 if I could, but I need to make a living too, don’t I?”

“Hahaha! Right. Guild Master, I quite like your personality.”

“Hehe, I’ll take that as a compliment.”

Cheon Yu-na laughed out loud and looked at the three people as she spoke.

“I’ll prepare the contracts as quickly as possible. I’ll contact you through Black Dragon as soon as they’re ready.”

“Alright. I’m counting on you, new Guild Master.”

“Just call me Cheon Yu-na comfortably.”

“Haha! It’s just a habit of mine.”

“Ah. I see.”

Cheon Yu-na grasped the hand that Seong Yu-mi extended.

After shaking hands with Cheon Yu-na, Seong Yu-mi suddenly lifted the corners of her mouth and said.

“So Black Dragon, if you were at an A-rank Gate all day today, you must have made some money?”

“…You’re like a ghost.”

“Buy us a meal. You’re our senior now.”

“That’s right. Buy us a meal, senior.”

Why am I your senior?

I chuckled at Jeong Chan-woo and Seong Yu-mi’s words and nodded.

“Order whatever you want to eat. I’ll pay for it.”

“Awesome!”

As soon as my words ended, Jeong Chan-woo and Seong Yu-mi began choosing food to eat.

I sat down heavily on the sofa, watching Im Seung-hun quietly adding food in between.

“Squeak.”

“Are you really okay?”

“Squeak squeak.”

“I’m fine.”

Considering the money I made today, it didn’t matter how expensive the food was.

“If this little amount would be insufficient, then nothing would have been enough anyway.”

It was true that I needed to save money to buy a Han River View Apartment.

But if this level of spending would cause problems, it would be the same either way.

“Ja, jajangmyeon! Please add jajangmyeon too!”

I closed my eyes after watching Cheon Yu-na add jajangmyeon for the housewarming celebration.

The scent of the new guild smelled like fresh trees.

* * *

About a week passed after that.

During that time, I did extremely Hunter-like activities, normally going in and out of Gates.

I didn’t earn as much profit as the first day.

Of course, I won’t deny that I earned considerable profits afterward too.

Waking up early in the morning, I drank a cup of sweet cocoa and looked at the balance on my phone screen.

“…”

Somehow I feel full even though I didn’t eat breakfast.

I smiled contentedly while looking at my bank balance, put down my empty cup, and stretched long.

“Which Gate should I summon them from today.”

Until now, whenever I entered a Gate, I always summoned Kargon, Elpinire, and Jini.

The three who responded immediately whenever I called had been training beside me while I hunted monsters.

The two who had fainted and been carried back by Kargon until the second day managed to return conscious starting from the third day.

I suppose that means they’re gradually growing stronger.

“They don’t really need to push themselves though.”

Just having those two there helps me.

Though they don’t seem to accept that themselves.

I clicked my tongue softly and got up from my seat.

“I got a text last night saying the contract was completed too.”

Last night.

When I returned from the Gate, I received a text from Cheon Yu-na.

The text said that the contract with Seong Yu-mi had been completed.

I suppose today is the day Seong Yu-mi officially joins the Guild.

“I should get there first.”

I already sent Seong Yu-mi a text as soon as I woke up.

She seems to be sleeping since she hasn’t read it yet, but knowing her, she’ll come to the Guild office as soon as she reads it.

She has nothing else to do anyway, and her house is only a 10-minute walk away.

Since one of the reasons she’s joining the Guild is me, I should at least be there when she comes to join.

After washing up lightly and changing clothes, I opened the entrance with Cheo-ri and came outside.

“It’s gotten completely warm now.”

Just a week ago it still felt a bit cool.

Now the air has turned pleasantly fresh.

I suppose it’s because it’s already April.

I walked down the street with the cool breeze blowing, having such idle thoughts.

“Come to think of it, Cheon Yu-na must be really busy too.”

Cheon Yu-na is living while keeping the Guild’s existence secret, they say.

That’s probably why she sometimes rushed off urgently to the department store in Gangnam.

Most of the work is handled by that manager Park Su-hyeon I met that time, but she has to do directly what he can’t handle.

The reason it took over a week to create the contract was probably for that reason too.

“I wonder if she’s already there.”

Click.

I boarded the elevator, pressed the button for the 3rd floor, and entrusted myself to the ascending elevator.

The elevator stopped with a ding sound.

I walked out through the opening doors, but immediately froze at the fishy scent that brushed past my nose.

“…Blood scent?”

A scent that shouldn’t be coming from this place.

My face hardened as I flung open the closed door and stepped inside.

What greeted me was none other than the scene of a destroyed office.

“….”

I looked around the office with trembling pupils.

A desk broken in half.

The bookshelf that had books on it was overturned and scattered on the floor.

The sofa I often sat on was torn by sharp blades, making it hard to recognize its original form.

And on all of those places.

“Blood.”

Black blood was splattered everywhere.

I bent my knees and traced the blood on the floor with my finger.

“….”

Nothing came off.

The bloodstains that had turned black had been stuck there for a long time.

I clicked my tongue and quickly reached out to summon a book.

[Roster]

[Entity ‘Elpinire’ responds to your call.]

Elpinire appeared with the mist.

I immediately gave her an order.

“Elpinire, track the traces.”

“Understood.”

She nodded and stomped her foot to spread mana.

Mana flowing along the ground.

Soon dozens of footprints on the floor began glowing with green light.

Elpinire closed her eyes and continued detecting mana without stopping there.

Time where 1 minute felt like 1 hour and 1 second felt like 1 minute.

In that time, Elpinire quietly opened her eyes and clicked her tongue as she spoke.

“Master, I’m sorry. The traces suddenly cut off in the middle. It seems like… they used magic to move.”

At a certain point, intense mana resonance remained.

They must have used instant movement with a skill like teleport.

This was a trace Elpinire couldn’t follow.

“But I found out two things. There were a total of 12 attackers.”

“What’s next?”

“The person called Cheon Yu-na is likely still alive. That person’s mana remains vividly where the traces cut off.”

But why.

Who on earth attacked Cheon Yu-na?

I ground my teeth, sent Elpinire back to the Tower, and took out my phone to call somewhere.

-…Hello.

“Im Seung-hun, it’s me.”

-What’s going on calling so suddenly this morning?

“Give me grandmother’s phone number.”

-Huh?

“Cheon Yu-na was attacked.”

-…I’ll rush over there right away.

Click.

The call ended.

I lowered my phone and let out a long sigh.

The office that had smelled fresh was now filled with the stench of blood.

* * *

Im Seung-hun and Choi Soon-ja arrived in less than 10 minutes.

“What is this….”

Im Seung-hun froze seeing the wrecked office.

Unlike her grandson, Choi Soon-ja only calmly surveyed the surroundings with coldly sunken eyes.

“You called me because you need to see the CCTV, right young man.”

“That’s right.”

“For a reason like this, I have to show it no matter what anyone says.”

She immediately nodded as if to follow her and headed to the elevator.

We soon arrived at the 1st floor.

She opened the door to a small room in a deep corner and sat in front of the computer as if familiar with it.

“It’ll take a bit to find it.”

“That’s fine.”

As long as I can find them, it doesn’t matter how long it takes.

Choi Soon-ja started fast-forwarding through the CCTV footage beginning from midnight yesterday.

1 o’clock, 2 o’clock.

Past the hours when the moon hung high in the sky, it was already 4 AM.

“…So this is when she comes to work.”

The lights turned on in the dark corridor, and Cheon Yu-na appeared on the CCTV screen carrying her bag.

She unlocked the door without knowing anything and entered the office.

And the moment she entered the office.

“…”

The lights in the corridor went out again, and several people began walking out from the darkness.

They all wore masks and stopped by the door as if waiting.

And then.

“…”

The CCTV captured a brutal battle.

A one-sidedly brutal battle.

Fireballs exploded.

Blood splattered.

Ice spikes erupted from the floor.

Blood splattered.

She dodged a sword striking down.

Blood splattered.

She fought desperately, but to them, Cheon Yu-na’s struggles were nothing more than entertainment.

Cheon Yu-na was the one attacking desperately, but she was also the one being torn to shreds.

After about 10 minutes of this torment.

They casually left the office with the unconscious Cheon Yu-na slung over their shoulder.

The office fell into silence after the brief commotion.

Several hours later, I appeared at that place.

“That’s all there is.”

Click.

Choi Soon-ja stopped the video playback with a keystroke and turned to look at me.

I had been staring at the monitor with coldly sunken eyes, then bowed my head to Choi Soon-ja in gratitude.

“Thank you for showing me this.”

“Showing you is possible, but you don’t know who the culprit is, right? You should report this to the police.”

“No, it’s fine. I think I know who the culprit is.”

That’s right.

I figured out who the culprit was from watching the CCTV.

The Gate I entered a week ago, ‘Wyvern’s Cradle’.

There, I got into a confrontation with a strange man.

At that time, that man had sparks crackling around his body like lightning.

That’s right.

“Villainous Guild. This is their doing.”

Just like that man who carried Cheon Yu-na over his shoulder and escaped.

I let out a hollow laugh and swept my hair back.

“Interesting.”

They say a puppy doesn’t know to fear a tiger.

I didn’t expect them to pull such a cute stunt after getting beaten without being able to use even a finger.

I lifted the corners of my mouth and picked up my ringing phone.

“Ah, Hunter Seong Yu-mi. We were supposed to sign the contract today, but something came up.”

-Something? What is it?

“Let’s go beat up some villains for the first time in a while.”

Trash wearing the skin of Hunters, at that.

My lips held a cold smile as I added in a low, sunken voice.
