Civil Service Hunter’s S-level Resignation Log - Chapter 33

‘There are more than one things I want to ask, but people are coming, so it’s a mountain over a mountain.’

Instead of activating her skill, Seora put her weapon back in her inventory.

She hadn’t sensed anything, but since the administrator wouldn’t lie about this.

“Well, even if you don’t lie, you sure are good at hiding things, aren’t you?”

【Administrator: (;¬_¬)】

Seora, who spoke bluntly, snorted.

“I should have killed this guy, how unfortunate.”

She backed away to avoid the beast’s attack.

She didn’t want to forgive the guy who took away her time off, but it couldn’t be helped.

She didn’t want to see herself leaving the company because she was caught instead of leaving the company for a time off.

‘Oh, but when are they coming? He is about to suck all my blood!’

She couldn’t even ask him to activate the protection that deflected three attacks because someone was coming.

The problem was that her blood was smearing all over the place because of the intense movement.

And the beast acted as if not a single drop of the blood could be wasted, his jaw was wide open and his mouth was eating it.

It was a truly terrible sight. Ugh, from now on she never wanted to bleed again.

<Blood, give me your blood!>

“Argh! I feel like I’m going to throw up, so really stop……!”

Using the characteristics of the spirit body, the beast narrowed the distance in no time.

The frightened Seora somehow tried to escape by protecting her injured arm, and then she saw.

A person who was approaching from behind the beast more silently than the spirit body.

Short black hair, a neat face with no expression, a black battle suit that covers everything from the neck to the arms and legs, and movements that were as natural and flexible as flowing water.

Seora’s eyes widened at the familiar sight.

Why was that person here?

<Now you……!>

“I will kill you.”

A heavy yet calm voice took the beast’s words away.

And along with it, the white blade cut the spirit body’s neck with certainty. A terrifying death broke out.

<Ah, ah, no, no……!>

At the same time the long tongue somehow tried to swallow Seora, but the sword once again interrupted.

It’s translucent body scattered helplessly into the air.

It was a spiritual death.

【Boss Beast of the Grade 4 dungeon ‘Ghost Town’ is dead!】

【Maximum Contributor: Jeong Hoyoung (S-Rank)】

‘My eyes weren’t wrong.’

The one who threw the dagger that cut off the beast’s head was none other than Jeong Hoyoung, the guild leader who led ‘Chasa’, the second-ranked guild in Korea.

Knowing that she had survived thanks to her she felt quite relieved in a way.

‘Wow, it’s creepy. What would have happened if I had ignored the administrator’s words and killed the beast here.’

She couldn’t believe that the one who came in was Jeong Hoyoung.

She was a follower of Song Hanna, who was very famous in Korea.

At the very least, it was almost a joke that she named the guild ‘Chasa’, meaning that she followed Song Hanna, the association president.

What if someone that loyal witnessed her killing the beast with magic? She would most likely run out without looking back and report the details.

Seora was sincerely happy and relieved that she listened to the administrator.

‘Elizabeth-ssi, I’ll let you off for hiding something from me this time.’

【Administrator: ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و】

‘Of course, that doesn’t mean that you won’t be questioned.’

【Administrator: (._, )】

Seora also made eye contact with Jeong Hoyoung while the administrator started quietly sobbing.

As she approached her, she examined the wound on her arm with a careful touch.

“It’s serious.”

Well, it was definitely serious. She had rolled around while trying to avoid the beast’s attack which made her wound worse and body more dusty.

“Is that the wound you just received from that beast?”

“Yes, Yes.”

“It’s an attack from a spirit body, so there’s no poison, but it’s better to treat it quickly.”

Jeong Hoyoung took her potion from the inventory and poured it into her wound.

What a world. She couldn’t believe such expensive potions were being used just like this. She really enjoyed luxury as the dear daughter of the friend Song Hanna loved.

“D-did the Chasa guild come to do the raid?”

Seora asked, deliberately pretending to be in pain.

She was glad that she rolled back and forth to avoid the beast. Had her body been clean, she would have attracted suspicion.

As for Jeong Hoyoung, since she was the best assassin in Korea, she was also very good at noticing such traces.

“The association president asked. Our headquarters is also nearby.”

“Then, did you come to rescue me from the beginning?”

“The association president was very concerned. She was hoping to get an exorcism.”

“……”

Seora’s face was filled with sorrow and agony. This time, it wasn’t acting, it was her true feelings.

They had a point…… Just how did she end up like this……?

“The blood has stopped. An ambulance is waiting outside, so let’s get out.”

“Y-Yes. Oops. Chief Kim Sanghyun!”

She thought of Kim Sanghyun who she threw away without knowing while she was attacked by the beast, and hurriedly looked around.

He was slumped in one corner of the wall, in a shabby state.

She is sorry. It wasn’t intentional.

However, the moment she turned her body forward while checking for any injuries, Seora thought that she had to apologize again.

Wherever the hell he bumped into, he was bleeding from both his nostrils.

She was really sorry. She will pretend she hadn’t seen it.

Without saying a word, she took out her handkerchief and wiped his nose.

***

When she went out of the gate, the hunting guild members that seemed to have been rescued were everywhere.

Some of them died due to complete erosion, but most had survived.

Everyone wondered how the small guild members had survived the White Ghost’s mental attack.

Surprisingly, the truth was soon revealed.

“My mind went hazy and I saw a vision as if I was lost in a dream, and at that moment. Something pierced my head.”

“Hey, that’s right! Me too, same happened to me! At the same time, the illusions disappeared and my body lost strength, so I of course thought I was dead! But how the hell am I alive……?”

“It was a gun. It was definitely a sense of being shot. I’ve been shot before, so I know exactly how it feels.”

“As soon as something pierced my head, I could feel the energy draining out of my body. I thought it was my soul leaving, so of course I thought I was dead. But I didn’t expect to survive like this.”

All the survivors said the same thing. Even Kim Sanghyun, a dispatched civil servant, claimed he had the same experience.

While people were whispering about what the hell happened, Seora quietly raised her hand.

While everyone’s eyes, including Jeong Hoyoung, were pouring in, she said it very seriously.

“It was the same for me. Shortly after the chief was attacked, I also collapsed, but something flew towards his head. It didn’t hurt, but it was a really shocking feeling. To think my head was pierced……”

Seora, who was rubbing her forehead like a sick person, staggered loudly as if dizzy.

Jeong Hoyoung, who was beside her, hurriedly supported her. Jeong Hoyoung was very worried because her small face that expressed gratitude was so pale.

That’s why she had no idea.

Unlike her stiff body, Seora’s head was working very hard.

‘It’s ruined. Very badly ruined! Why did I tell them I felt it even though I fainted! What am I doing!’

Seora swallowed her saliva.

From now on, she would have to be consistent with the fact that she didn’t know anything.

She just woke up a little earlier than others.

She didn’t see anything.

Seora repeated the same thing several times in her mind, and she worked harder than ever in her performance.

【Title: Did headbang appear at the crack dungeon today?】

【I heard the Hunting Guild members thought they were killed by being eroded by the White Ghost, but they said they were shot in the head and survived? Isn’t the only one shooting heads with guns these days headbang? If this is true, then this person is…… what? Can they purify mental erosion? Isn’t this skill a scam?

But why did they let the people survive again and disappear without telling anyone??? What is the modern version of Snail Bride?】

(Snail Bride, also known as ‘Ureongi Gaksi’. It’s a popular story in Korea)

【Comments】

Snail Bride ㄴㄴ Bang bride ㅇㅇ

(ㄴㄴ= no no, ㅇㅇ = yes yes)

└ Upstairs is crazy ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Bang Bride ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

(I guess I never mentioned it before but ㅋ= ha/lol, so ㅋㅋ is like lolol or haha)

But it’s really interesting. Usually, if you solve this kind of thing, you would reveal your identity, but why won’t they?

└They saved a grade 2 dungeon but ran away, so they wouldn’t reveal themselves in a grade 4 dungeon

Eh, isn’t it the Chasa guild that handled the crack dungeon? It is said that even the guild leader who never moves unless she gets orders from the tiger came.

└That’s just the boss. Bang Bride seemed to have saved the hunting guild members ㅇㅇ

└ Is it legit? I thought that Tiger obsessed went to solve it with Chasa when her Tiger-nim went to Chasa to ask for it?

└They said directly that it wasn’t Chasa.

“……Guild Leader, why did you say that? You should have just said you solved it.”

Seora, who was browsing through the community, quietly shed tears as she remembered Jeong Hoyoung, who was too sincere.

“Also, Bang Bride. Didthey think I wanted to be the snail bride or something……”

She also wanted to sit on the table that others prepared and enjoy hot rice.

Did they think she did it because she liked leaving the table without even taking a spoonful?

She had no choice but to avoid it since if she took the slightest bite her life would be mortgaged for life.

“If it weren’t for my aunt’s overprotectiveness, she would have resigned immediately…… There is no need to continue working as a civil servant after I became an S-rank anyways.”

There was a reason why she wanted to become a civil servant right away at the young age of 20, after she just became an adult.

But now that her rank increased, that reason has disappeared.

“Is there really any way to quit quietly without being questioned by my aunt, and without being dragged to her house?”

For the first time since she took the civil service exam, she tried using her brain, but she saw nothing but a dark future. Sniff.

Then, a notification came up saying that she had received a text message in her mind, so Seora turned on her phone.

And as soon as she read the contents, she wrinkled her face fiercely.

[Are you really trying to hide your identity?]

It was a text message from that damn regressor that had returned five times.
