Swordmaster Healer

Chapter 28: Class S Hunter Healer (3)

A Hunter Certificate was issued that proves he is an S rank Hunter after the closing ceremony. The phenomenon came to him directly near the officetel and delivered it to him. At the same time, privileges for Class S Hunters, such as tax free benefits, began to apply.

The typical change was the protection of Soohyuk. The police department also started first class security for Seohyuk, Seong-jun's family.

A few days later, Eun Joo and Ha-yeon came near the officetel.

“Seong-jun! ”

Eun Joo, who found Seong-jun, waved her hands with a happy voice.

Maybe it's because of the medallion ceremony, someone recognizes his face occasionally. So even though she was wearing her hat deep to prevent annoying work, she recognized Seong-jun at once.

“Seong-jun! It's a little late, but congratulations on your promotion! ”

Eun Joo was holding a case of wood that looked luxurious. After her, she approached with a calm gait.

“Congratulations."

“Thank you."

Seong-jun smiled at Eun-joo and Ha-yeon.

“I was passing by and gave some to Seong-jun. ”

Eunju shakes the case of wood holding it lightly. The size was enough for a moderately-sized bottle of spirits to fit in.

“Is that liquor? ”

She was one of her favorite, although she wasn't hard to drink.

“I've already noticed. Hehe.”

Eun-suh smiled playfully and handed over the case of wood to Seong-jun.

“That's expensive stuff. You have to save it. ”

“Well, we'll be going now. ”

She checked her watch and said. Seong-jun tried to suggest that we go for a cup of tea, but the two of them looked busy and quit.

After returning to the officetel, Seongjun opened the case of wood. Inside was fine spirits, but it was a famous and expensive drink that Seong-jun was not familiar with.

‘You must have spent some money. ’

I didn't enjoy expensive drinks, but I received a gift and was about to open it soon.

Seong-jun, who put the bottle on the shelf with the case of wood, checked the time.

‘3: 00 p.m. ’

The dungeon raid was intended to take a day or two off, and there was still plenty of time for the day to end. After a brief thought, Seong-jun decided to visit the auction house.

There was also a need to upgrade to VIP. I was able to buy quality secondhand items at a cheap price even now, but I was happy to imagine how good items would be hidden when I went to the VIP rank.

“I'm going to the Auction House. ”

Seong-jun went to the auction house with Lischevald. Soon after arriving at the auction house, he began to move his feet to check the fastest auction schedule.

“Kang Sung-joon? ”

It was when I arrived in front of the auction. Someone called out his name. Seong-jun turned his head in the direction of hearing his voice.

There was a train. He was a class A hunter saved by Seong-jun in the dungeon a while ago. Next to him were two men and two women dressed as attendants.

As Jeongchul shakes his hand, they bow and retreat.

“Jung-cheol Park...? ”

“I'm sorry I didn't contact you first. It's late, but I sincerely congratulate you on advancing to Class S Hunter. ”

Jeongchul apologized with his head down. In fact, I was so busy that I couldn't even think of contacting Seong-jun.

“I didn't expect to see you here. ”

Seong-jun said, Jung-cheol nodded.

“Me too. I didn't know that famous Kang Sung-joon was using my auction house. ”

“Does this auction house belong to Jung-cheol Park? ”

“Yes. My father oversees this side of the world, and the administration is entirely up to me. ”

Jeongchul did not explain in detail, but his father was also a congressman.

‘Manager...? ’

It didn't seem like he was lying.

Seong-jun smiled inside. Jeongchul owes me his life and said he would pay it back.

If so, may I ask you to be promoted to a VIP member?

I was cautious because I did not know the value of VIP membership. However, hesitation did not solve the problem, and I thought it was okay to ask once.

“Jung-cheol Park, wait... are you having a good time? ”

“Of course. Let's go to my office. ”

Jung Cheol answered Seong-jun's question with a faint smile. He read Seong-jun's voice, wanting to talk in a quiet place, and recommended his office.

“Please report this to your father. ”

“I understand.”

Jeongchul delivered an envelope of documents to his subordinate and moved to the office with Seong-jun.

“It's the VIP card, isn't it? ”

Jung asked if you had the sense to take charge of a large secret auction house.

Seong-jun opened his mouth with a smile on his mouth.

“You're quick to notice. ”

“It was a parachute at first, but I could tell from running a business this fast. ”

Jeongchul drank a cup of coffee in front of him. He speaks in a joyful manner, but deep fatigue is found in his voice.

It was not easy to run the auction house.

“And the VIP promotion is actually one of the few privileges I have. There's nothing more I can do for you than I thought. ”

“I don't want anything else. ”

“As a VIP, you know you can enter a private auction house, right? There aren't many items in circulation, but that's how much merchandise will appear in the auction. It turns out that the standards are also strict, so there aren't a lot of VIPs. ”

Jeongchul explained.

“In order to become a VIP, you need to be satisfied with either money or power. And of course, there are two forces at play. ”

“It's an emotional item...... Are you saying there are so many collectors? ”

“You didn't know. VIP auction houses aren't the only ones that can't be registered. ”

Seong-jun was a little surprised because she didn't hear it from Hyunsung. As he looked like that, Jeongchul smiled and snuck out of the office window.

“What I'm about to tell you is highly confidential. ”

Seong-jun nodded, and Jung-cheol opened his mouth calmly.

“Items distributed through the path of darkness will also go up for auction. For example…… items like the ‘Bible of Catastrophes’. ”

“The Bible of disaster? I know these types of items are representative of government controlled items……. ”

The ‘Bible of Disaster’, which can use any kind of curse, was owned by the government because it was classified as a powerful mass destruction item.

There were more items owned or controlled by the government for similar reasons than I expected

“I come up sometimes. The Bible of Catastrophe was sold after it came up a while ago. ”

“The Bible of disaster? They must have been from the government... ”

“It hasn't been announced yet, but it's been leaked. As you know, Kang Sung-jun, government agencies struggle to secure as many senior hunters as possible because they are incompetent. ”

I learned something I didn't know. Seong-jun's eyes shook in shock.

The ‘Bible of Disasters’ was leaked. If someone had been vicious and won the auction, there would have been a catastrophic storm in Korea.

The 'Bible of Disasters’ was an SS class item with such power.

“You were just watching? ”

“I have no authority. I had to keep an eye on him. ”

Seong-jun could feel deep sadness in the voice of Jeongchul.

Jeongchul got up from his chair and approached his desk. A black card emerges from a small machine.

Jung-cheol picked it up and handed it to Seong-jun.

“Here's your VIP card. It's hard to lose, so take care of it. ”

Seong-jun nodded his head and received it. Black cards, such as black, had a series of numbers that were presumed to be member numbers.

“I'm glad things are moving so fast. ”

“It's a reward for saving my life, but it's also a congratulatory gift for becoming a Class S Hunter. ”

At the end of the train, Seong-jun carefully put the card into his wallet.

“VIP auction houses wear masks and enter. It won't be easy, but... ”

Jeongchul paused and raised his cup of coffee. The glass was empty one day. He put it down with a short sigh and opened his mouth, looking at Seong-jun.

“I'd like you to keep an eye on the mass destruction items from time to time. I'll give you an example, of course. ”

“Then it shouldn't be difficult. We'll let you know occasionally. ”

I would have thought about it if I didn't say I would give an example. However, after talking about the case, I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to take care of Dong-tae while I was going sometimes.

I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to get close to the train. He was a good man when he was close. I didn't know much about him yet, but it was clear that he was not a person who would be harmed.

“I've taken up too much time. Do you have to go now? ”

“No, it was a good time. ”

At the end of the train, Seong-jun replied with a faint smile. Getting a VIP membership card was a huge success.

“I have business on the first floor, so come down with me. ”

“Let's do that. ”

Seong-jun nodded. They went down to the first floor.

Seeing Seong-jun's rear footsteps to the parking lot first, Jung Chul opened his mouth.

“Sung-jun Kang! ”

Seong-jun stopped walking and turned to the train.

“Go ahead.”

“I look forward to your continued support. ”

“I really am.”

The two became distant by exchanging words with many meanings.

“I was satisfied... …. ”

Seong-jun started up in the driver's seat and spit out to himself.

Lischevald, who was sitting in the passenger seat with his soul body and watching the front, opened his mouth, looking at Seongjun.

- You've been right about people all your life. Except for one thing……

Sadness came from my voice.

Seong-jun was able to easily understand what one case he was talking about.

The only and worst mistake I ever made in my life, when I was Rowkel.

“It was my worst mistake to trust the emperor so much.... ”

Seong-jun had to nod his head.

The emperor was the empire, and the empire was the emperor.

Seong-jun's former life, Rowkel trusted him as a comrade in the war together before devoting his allegiance to the Emperor.

And stabbed with the blade of a cruel betrayal.

Thinking about the nightmares of that day, I was filled with hate. If that hatred had been magical, it would have remained open to the imperial dimension.

“Lischevald.”

- Yes, Lord.

“Remember your hatred now. Once my mind is reached, the Awakening Dungeon will one day be held in the Imperial Palace. ”

- I'm sure you will. because a lot has happened in the Imperial Court.

“Remember, watch. The moment the Awakening Dungeon opens in the Imperial Palace.... ”

I lived in Seong-jun's eyes.

“The emperor dies. ”
