Civil Service Hunter’s S-level Resignation Log - Chapter 42
Seora, who had prepared herself with a firm resolve, left the hotel with Jarim, who begged to go with her.
And they were both speechless.
“Oh, you are here?”
Because of the huge car sitting behind Jeong Hoyoung, who had come to pick her up here.
Even people passing by on wheels boasting a dreadful prestige were whispering to each other, making it suspected of being pulled from military trucks.
What was even more frightening was Jeong Hoyoung’s black turtleneck and leather jacket.
It looked as if we were about to go fight some war instead of going to see a shaman.
“Hey, Guild leader. Where the hell are we going……?”
“To the mountains. We will go up halfway.”
Mountain? Surely you are not going to climb up a mountain with this huge car?
“Seong Jarim, are you coming too?”
“Ah! I will go too!”
While Seora was contemplating whether or not to report this as environmental destruction as a civil servant, Jarim, who got on the back seat first, stretched out.
Yeah, what could possibly happen? Jeong Hoyoung was someone with common sense, so it shouldn’t be a big deal.
Seora put down her useless thoughts and sat in the passenger seat. It was difficult to climb up because the car was too high.
“Where are we going? Does it take long?”
“We can arrive within today.”
“Is it Namhansanseong or Chiaksan mountain?”
“Taebaeksan Mountain.”
“……What?”
“There is a good restaurant nearby, so let’s have lunch there.”
Seora’s face turned pale at once. It was currently 10 am, and saying that we would have lunch near Mt. Taebaeksan showed just how much it would take.
She hurriedly tried to shout that safe driving came first, but it was already too late.
Suddenly feeling the pressure of her body being pulled back, Seora hurriedly grabbed the handle.
Jarim, who was lying behind her, missed the timing and rolled over.
It had been so long that she had forgotten it. Jeong Hoyoung boasted such a splendid record that she was once called a ghost driver.
From the looks of it she would go to the afterlife before she could even get an exorcism and have good luck.
***
“I, I survived……”
As soon as the door opened, Seora crawled down on all fours and fell to the floor.
‘The power to make even an S-Rank suffer from motion sickness.’
She was so sick that she couldn’t even eat lunch.
“How are you so weak? This is why the association president is often worried.”
Seora, who was vomiting in vain, felt injustice at Jeong Hoyoung’s words. This wasn’t her fault.
The problem was her reckless driving skills that made even Seong Jarim roll down!
“Doesn’t the guild leader feel anything after seeing that?”
Seora pointed to Seong Jarim, who was lying on the floor with her, as if she was stabbed.
With her liberated face, that screamed she had a good life……! and left her will that said.
【Administrator: ◝(๑⁺д⁺๑)◞՞】
Even her administrator was feeling dizzy.
“Why? It would be nice if we arrived sooner.”
“That’s not the problem……!”
“When we go back, I will go slowly. You are already weak anyways. I need to make medicine.”
She didn’t have the confidence to win because her words don’t work.
“Let’s go up slowly. Seong Jarim stop pretending to be weak and stand up then give her a piggyback. It’s too late to hit your feet.”
“Huh? Didn’t you bring a car like this to drive up?”
“What are you talking about? How can we drive up Mt. Taebaeksan?”
“……”
Why was there so much regret pouring in from before?
Seora gave up saying more and was quietly carried by Seong Jarim.
Seong Jarim didn’t need to do this, but she ignored what she mumbled.
As she climbed the mountain, Seora asked some questions.
“Is this person that spiritual?”
The place they were walking on wasn’t a proper hiking trail.
There were no signs or maps, but Jeong Hoyoung continued as if she didn’t care.
“Did you know that there have been many changes among shamans since Hunters appeared?”
Special people who serve the gods and predict the future and inform the world.
However, their world was inevitably changed as the stars were placed in the sky, and awakened people who had more direct contact with God appeared.
“Many shamans have disappeared, but there are still survivors. The person we are going to meet now is the most special among them. I met them in person.”
Oh, Seora, who knew quite a bit about Jeong Hoyoung immediately understood the meaning.
The reason why her guild was named ‘Chasa’.
It wasn’t just because she followed Song Hanna, like others thought.
“We are here. Over there.”
When sheI thought that it was taking quite a while, Jeong Hoyoung pointed somewhere.
A wonderful hanok was nestled among the dense groves of trees where no traces of people could be felt.
“Wow, what kind of palace was built in middle of a mountain?”
Behind the walls made of stone and mud was a luxurious tiled house with the aura of the great dynasty.
There were even a couple of red lanterns hanging from the gate, which gave a great atmosphere.
“Let’s go in. Fortunately, seeing that the lights are on they should be inside.”
“Didn’t you come with a reservation?”
“They don’t accept things like that.”
The moment when Jeong Hoyoung opened the door.
Bang! With such a sound, someone ran out from inside the tiled house.
“Aaaah, this guy came here again! I told you not to set foot here again, but do my words not reach your ears?!”
A woman in a neat hanbok pointed this way with frosty eyes.
Surprised by how fierce she was, Seora hid behind Jarin, and her Jarim hid behind Hoyoung.
“How many times do I have to tell you that if you come here, the ground will become ugly? Just go home! I’ll break your legs!”
Oh my gosh. Seora opened her mouth wide. She had never seen anyone say such things towards Jeong Hoyoung, the country’s best assassin.
‘I guess she really isn’t an ordinary person! I’m sure she’ll get rid of my bad luck!’
Seora’s face turned bright.
“I just opened the door. I haven’t been in yet.”
As the woman ran with her socks, Jeong Hoyoung pointed to Seora who was hiding behind her.
“It’s this kid who has something to do today. I won’t go in, so don’t worry and just look after her.”
“You already made a mess just by being here! Oh my god, I can’t believe you are walking around with that energy of a grim reaper!”
Oh, Seora’s eyes twinkled even more.
The reason why Jeong Hoyoung’s guild was named Chasa was because her sacrament was none other than the Grim Reaper.
It was truly a sacrament that went along with an assassin.
“Hm? What. Is this unni also an Awakened?”
Only when Jarim, who was watching the woman carefully, said these did the woman’s gaze fall from Jeong Hoyoung.
“I knew that I had a particularly bad sleep today. You’ve been hanging around with all sorts of things. Ugh.”
The woman approaching quickly stared at Jarim. Her eyes were so fierce that Jarim was frightened again.
You brought in a really cool guy. No. Your life is so incomparably fierce. Honey, where the hell did you have such a rough life for your face to dry out this much?”
“……”
Was this looking at her face, or was it ridiculing her because her face is dry?
Jarim became gloomy all at once.
“I’m still 26……”
“Damn, you’re good at that. You have to deceive the person you deceive.”
The woman poked Jarim’s nose with her finger. It was seemingly a light touch, but Jarim grabbed her nose and curled up backwards.
“Gosh! Oh my nose! My nose hurts! What kind of power is this!”
“Come on, let’s see. This is……”
But the woman ignored her and bowed her waist deeper then stared at her Seora. Look here and there.
“You, you…… Hm, hm?”
The woman tilted her head and looked into the air for a moment. Wow, oh, hey, Huh? Uh-huh. A sound of admiration came from her red-painted lips.
“Right. Are you the source of my nightmares? Well, looking at it now, it doesn’t look like a nightmare.”
After a while, the woman grinned and turned to Jeong Hoyoung.
“Even if I don’t like that the damned grim reaper came, I have to endure it since there is someone I must look out for. Now I know for sure.”
“Looks like there really is something going on. It’s a good thing I brought you here.”
“Stay strong though. Now, you two don’t come in and wait here. You come here.”
The woman who reached out her hand in a hook grabbed Seora’s back and lifted her up.
She said she was an awakened person, so her strength really was different from that of a normal person.
Seora was dragged into the tiled house by herself, with Jeong Hoyoung standing outside the gate and waving her hand and Jarim still holding her nose and rolling around.
“Wow, nice house.”
The wooden furniture had a fragrant smell of wood, and there were all kinds of ornaments as if it had been moved from a museum.
Even the precious ruby and silk were amusing to look around.
“What do you think?”
“It’s absolutely gorgeous.”
“It’s something I took care of one by one, so of course. Come on, sit down.”
There were several statues in the room the woman brought her to. The screen that filled one side of the room was also mysterious.
A black bird with spread wings was drawn with characters that were neither Chinese nor Korean.
It seemed to be a specific bird, but since they all looked the same she didn’t know which one.
“It’s a pretty picture, but I can’t recognize it.”
“You must be ignorant of painting. You probably don’t have an eye for it.”
“It’s not that my eyes are wrong, it’s the picture that is wrong.”
When Seora raised her head proudly and said, she smiled as if she was absurd.
“You are just like the girl that brought you. Eat.”
Contrary to her blunt words, the soban placed in front of her was full of delicious tea and refreshments.
Since she couldn’t eat lunch due to motion sickness, her mouth was watering.
“Uh, very grand, uh……”
“What? I am kind despite not looking like it?”
“You really are a real shaman. How do you know my heart so well?”
Thank you for the food. Seora bowed her head and ate the soft fruit first. Mm, it’s delicious.
“Of course I have to be kind. I brought in a terrifying person who can’t even compare to the guy out there.”
“Yes?”
“Since the moment you set foot on this site, my God has been making a fuss. Telling me to watch my mouth.”
The woman smiled and held out the teacup in front of Seora, who had a blank expression on her face.
“My name is Baek Heewon. It’s an honor to meet you. The only contractor of the system administrator in this world.”
