Swordmaster Healer

Chapter 51 Attack Dungeon (1)

Tuning was 61% as reward for Awakening Dungeons. The ‘Dimensional Magical Power Collector’ in the shape of an earring seemed to have gathered enough magical power.

So Seong-jun was happy and went back to the mansion. It was dawn, so everyone seemed to be asleep, except for the patrolmen.

- Sir Zero is awake.

In Lischevalt's words, Seong-jun nods instead of answering. I feel a magical reaction in the basement of his workshop.

He was obviously experimenting or researching something. Zeros kept the workshop's magical power from leaking out, but Seong-jun could not deceive the sensitive senses.

“Good. I have to give you this, too. ”

Seong-jun pointed to the earring with the tip of his finger. It was the ‘Dimensional Magical Power Collector’ that Zeros received.

Now that you've gathered enough dimensional magical power, it's your turn to return it to Zero. He steps into Zeros' workshop in the basement.

“Zero.”

Despite being deliberately popular and going down, Zeros didn't notice because he was focusing on his research. Only after you call out your name do you realize someone's here and turn your head toward the entrance.

“Ah... are you here? ”

Zeros outlines what he was researching. Seong-jun approached him and gave him earrings.

“Dimensional magic seems to have been collected enough. ”

Zeros said with a smile on his mouth, looking closely at the ‘Dimensional Magical Power Collector’ in the shape of an earring. A jewel tucked in an earring holds a subtle glow.

“Do you need anything else? ”

“We don't have it right now, but if we continue with our research, we may find additional materials. Then I'll ask you again. ”

“Yes. Let me know if you need anything. ”

Zeros' research not only helps you get revenge but also helps you earn money. If his theory of attack dungeons is true, he can open a Dimensional Gateway in a Class A dungeon and hunt down the Confederacy of Seculars without having to participate in the Class S dungeon competition.

Rooting might be a bit annoying, but the quartz in this area was a little higher quality. It would be difficult to sell as an official route, but I was not worried because I had a train that specialized in informal work.

“I understand.”

“How long does it take to analyze dimensional magic? ”

“A week is enough. ”

In Zeros' answer, Seong-jun nodded with a satisfied expression. I already thought that there wasn't much left of revenge.

* * *

The new year has dawned.

Earlier in January, it relaxed. Guild members such as Shin-chul and Jang-hoon were resting in the mansion because they had raided Class A dungeons a few days ago. I was sitting on a bench installed in Seongjun Garden and resting.

A bodyguard approached him as he took the mug with warm coffee to his mouth.

“Visitors have come. ”

“It's you, isn't it? ”

“How did you... ”

“There's a way to find out. ”

Seong-jun got up from the bench after drinking all the coffee left in the mug cup. Although it was not a scheduled visit, the magical power felt on the side of the gate was clearly sub-thermal. I remember because I fought with him.

“You may open the door. ”

Seong-jun gave his permission. Visitors must have his permission to enter through the gate. When Seong-jun isn't at the mansion, Han Seok or Jung-cheol will make the decision instead.

Han Seok was a body that could not be betrayed because of the 'Rune of Loyalty’, and Jeong Chul was a trustworthy person.

The bodyguard withdraws. Seong-jun goes up to the reception room first and waits for the sub heat. I can see a black sedan coming in through the window.

“I'll have a refreshment, please. ”

The door opens fearfully and a semi-control walks in, placing the tea and snacks on the reception table.

Seeing his face, Seong-jun was a little nervous because it seemed like a serious story would come out.

“Sung-jun Kang. It's been a long time. Thank you in Songpa. I haven't had a chance to say hello to you in a while. ”

It was about Seong-jun saving his life in a large-scale raid situation that engulfed the entire city of Seoul.

Semi-heat said thank you for coming to see Seong-jun after the Raid situation ended. But for once, I felt uncomfortable.

“Another hunter would have saved it if it wasn't for me. Don't worry too much. ”

“Could it be? I heard that the top three Hunters in Class S were far from the Songwave, and that the bosses guarding the Dimensional Gateway were SS. Without Kang Sung-jun, it would have been impossible to save me and Baek Ha-yeon in time. ”

Since it was an objective assessment, Seong-jun had to nod. He stops speaking, takes a sip of tea and opens his mouth.

“If you think of this as a debt, you can repay it someday. ”

“I will pay you back. ”

“I'm relieved that South Korean Class S Hunter has said so. ”

“Fifth. There was a change in ranking a while ago. ”

Semi-heat corrected Seong-jun's words. It seemed to have been a fluctuation from the Raid situation not long ago. Han Seok seemed to have maintained the ranking considering that he did not say much.

“As you may have noticed, I didn't come to see Kang Sung-jun today to thank him or inform him of the ranking changes. ”

Semi-febrile said with a serious look. Seong-jun nodded instead of answering, and he opened his mouth again.

“You know, I'm the head of the White Tiger. Today, I came to see Kang Sung-joon. ”

“Is there a duck in Russia or China? ”

It was the candidates who were going through Seong-jun's head in fear of finishing semi-seol's words. He made an unfortunate pact with the Russians, but he felt completely untrustworthy.

“It's clear that someone is playing the duc. ”

“You mean not Russia or China? ”

Seong-jun asked. Semi-heath nodded.

“It seems that a ‘group’ that does not know nationality or affiliation is following Kang Sung-joon. Every trace we tracked down was blocked, but that's not all. ”

Seong-jun could have guessed what they were as‘ enemies of the unknown. ’

‘Empire, or the League of Tribes. ’

If it weren't for Russia and China, there would be only two forces in the world that would be hostile to Seong-jun right now.

Thought it was done perfectly, but it looks like the people who were after Zeros left a clue. I don't know what it was, but it wasn't detailed.

‘Looks like the information isn't intact. ’

If he had left certain information, those who were on the move would have been aggressive against him regardless of their forces.

However, after hearing the semi-seal explanation, it seemed that it was still a cautiously small duck. If they had come out actively, blocking would have been impossible with the ability of the 'White Tiger’.

“Any idea where you're going? ”

“I don't know. 'Not yet’ I don't know. ”

Seong-jun answered a semi-seal sharp question with a natural smile. It was an honest answer.

It's unclear whether the Empire or the League have moved on. Nevertheless, the important thing was that both forces were hostile to Seongjun, precisely his predecessor, Rowkel.

“Let me know if you find out anything. ”

“I understand.”

Seong-jun nodded his head, but I didn't think it was time yet. The advent of dungeons and raids has opened a new era, but the existence of this world will not be easy to accept.

Even if they accepted their existence, it was inappropriate to explain why they were hostile to themselves.

“I'll be going, then. ”

“You're going already? ”

Seong-jun asked, "Even though I was loyal to the state, I was a capable hunter." I always thought it would be helpful to build friendship, so I was always looking for an opportunity.

“There's been a lot of overlap lately. I think we should go back today. ”

I had to nod my head because of the semi-seal's words. It would not be easy to carry out the duties of an armed police officer and the head of a white tiger at the same time.

“Farewell. ”

Semi-heath left the mansion in a black sedan. Seong-jun, who was watching the rear of the sedan gradually getting away on the reception hall terrace, felt Zeros' reflexes and turned his head.

The door opens and Zeros comes in. He was wearing a white robe.

It was something researchers and doctors liked to wear, but Zeros often wore because he liked the unique atmosphere.

“Sung-joon Kang. Do you have a minute? ”

“Let's go to the library. ”

It was clearly related to the research on dimensional gateways. Seong-jun led Zeros to the library. He arrived at the library on the third floor. When Seong-jun sat in the chair, Zeros made sure that the visit was firmly closed and that no one was nearby, then opened his mouth.

“The theory is perfect. ”

I was also energized by Seong-jun's face. I knew him well because I had been close to Zeros in my previous life with his name. It was clear that he spoke in such a confident voice.

“Give me a brief explanation. ”

Seong-jun said he knew the basic magic knowledge, but it was hard to understand when complicated explanations began.

“If you have a dimensional rift, you can create a dimensional gateway that crosses over to this system. ”

“The end?”

Zeros nods when he asks if it's over. The description was shorter than expected, but the important information was sufficiently communicated. That's why I liked it.

“Where can I find dimensional cracks? ”

Knowledge of dimensions is classified as the top level, so Seong-jun did not know in detail.

“It happens irregularly. The crack must be at least a certain size to open a dimensional gate. The Empire, or the League of Races, would have built something to expand the rift. ”

“Maybe, right? ”

“That's right.”

“Do I have to wait vaguely? ”

“That's not it. There is a dungeon here. It's weak, but it's connected to the other side, so it's unstable. ”

Seong-jun's eyes sparkled in Zeros' description.

“So there's a good chance there's a crack? ”

“Fragile in most cases, but there will be cracks. I can zoom in on that rift and create a tool for building a dimensional gateway, something called an item in the terms here. ”

Seong-jun nodded. It seemed to have similar principles to Awakening Dungeons.

“The higher the rating, the clearer the crack. I think Class A would be appropriate. ”

“How long does it take to make? ”

“It won't take long. But we don't have any ingredients. ”

Zeros spoke frankly. Other materials could be obtained with Seong-jun's support, but the last most important one could not be obtained. It was because it didn't exist on Earth. He opens his mouth with a calm expression.

“Riodin needs a correction. ”

A rare type of ore discovered by Archmage Riodin. Zeros needed it.
