The Girl I Saved Came Back As An S-rank Hunter

2 – The Secret Purpose of an S-Class Hunter

It was Choi Soo-jung, whom anyone could see from a picture in a newspaper article.

His long, waist-length silver hair and clearly defined features.

Her face still feels like she’s running between a girl and a woman, but her body is a silhouette full of curves that strongly reveals her femininity.

In addition, unlike her photos, her expressionless face is difficult to even imagine for her everyday life, her smiling face.

It feels like I just realized that this is what breathtaking beauty is all about.

“Hey, Wonwoo?”

She hurriedly came to her senses at Choi Soo-jung’s words, tilting her head slightly.

I thought I had done something rude by staring at her without realizing it, so I apologized first.

“Oh, sorry.”

She’s a little worried that she’ll be in a bad mood and start with one hit or something.

If it is Choi Soo-jung as she is known, she will be enough.

“No, it’s okay. Did you just stare at me because I’m pretty? I don’t know if it’s someone else, but it’s okay if it’s Wonwoo.”

Unexpectedly, he was surprisingly generous.

In addition, her outspoken attitude as if she knows her own beauty well.

I’m starting to get a little confused about whether it’s real or not.

“Are you really Hunter Choi Sujeong?”

“Yes, that’s right! Do you know me?”

“… Why don’t you know Choi Soo-jung, the youngest S-class hunter?”

Choi Soo-jung even smiles with her eyes as if she is happy to recognize herself.

I can’t get used to the expressionless expression when I see it in photos or videos, and I can’t get used to the smiling face as if the ice has melted and spring has arrived.

“By the way, why did you come here?”

“Uh… , Could you go inside and talk about the details?”

“… Yes you are.”

Against the S-class, even if she refused anyway, she would quickly accept it because if she pushed through, she would not be able to stop it.

After having Choi Soo-jung come into the house, he suggested a seat on the desk chair next to the bed, and I sat down on the bed.

“I’m sorry the house is small and dirty. You’re an S-class Hunter. I don’t deserve anything to give you.”

“No, you don’t have to mind.”

Choi Soo-jung keeps looking into my eyes and smiling. However, unlike before, her face was slightly flushed and her body was trembling slightly.

‘What is it? Is it cold in the house or uncomfortable?’

I had some doubts, but I thought it might be because my skin is so white, so I passed it on.

After that, I thought I was going to talk about something, so I stayed still, and when I made eye contact, I just smiled happily.

At this point, just as Han Yu-ra built her image as a kind and kind lady by making her image well, it is to the point where she doubts that Choi Su-jeong deliberately created a cold image.

“Hey, why did you come to this shabby place?”

I didn’t think the conversation would proceed if I stayed still, so I asked a question first.

“Oh, yes. It’s nothing else, I’m trying to create a guild, and I came because I really wanted to recruit Wonwoo.”

At that, her head thumped and she was dazed as if she had been hit by a blow.

In fact, it is not uncommon for a guild leader to directly step forward to recruit a guild member he likes.

It’s just strange that the S-class came forward to directly recruit so many D-class hunters that they could get hit by their feet.

“I know you have been contacting me, but they say there is no response. So I came here to bring him myself.”

“Contact? I don’t remember receiving it.”

With that answer, the smile disappeared from Soo-Jung Choi’s face, and the expressionless expression she knew so well was heard.

“… You paid me to work and I ordered you to work, but you didn’t work? Did you leave this to me?”

She was at a loss as to what to do with Choi Soo-jung’s mood that instantly turned cold.

When she noticed that, she smiled again and asked Choi Soo-jeong, as if asking when.

“Oh, sorry. But did you really not receive any invitation to join the guild?”

“A guild? Nothing comes to mind at all… ? Ah!”

I was about to answer no, but I remembered the spam text message I was trying to block earlier.

The guild name is Crystal Guild. Crystal is edited in Korean. You realize this now!

Sujeong Choi is looking at her, waiting for her to explain the situation.

‘But how should I say this?’

If you dare to say that you thought the guild founded by an S-class hunter, who said there were only 20 of them in Korea, was a fraudulent group, you wouldn’t know what would happen to you right now, even if you were smiling.

“Oh, I have been contacting you since a month ago….”

For now, I answered honestly as it was.

“Well, you see. Then, did you not like the terms I suggested?”

“No! No!”

In response to Choi Soo-jeong’s question, she raised her hands and touched her hands. The written conditions were too good to present to a D-class Hunter.

In terms of providing a residence and applying dungeon insurance, the annual salary was an amount that could be offered to an A-class hunter.

In addition, it was natural that it was difficult to believe that the items and magic stones obtained through the dungeon were all provided by the hunter.

Because guild membership was usually the default.

Looking at Choi Soo-jung, I asked, thinking that I should be honest about everything that had happened like this.

“Why are you treating me like this, a D-class? To be honest, I thought the conditions were too much to offer to a D-class hunter, so I didn’t seriously think about the offer.”

The story that I said it around, but I didn’t even think about it because I was suspicious.

It may have offended you, but Sujeong Choi answered surprisingly simply.

“Because I think Wonwoo has that much value. Remember? The bus gate incident.”

“Ah… ….”

From Sujeong Choi’s words, a sound close to a sigh came out of my mouth without my knowledge.

There’s no way I’ll ever forget the incident that practically ended my hunter career.

It was an incident in which a gate suddenly appeared inside a bus that was stopped while it was long after work, and a large number of monsters protruded out, resulting in many casualties.

Just in time to attack the dungeon that appeared nearby, and on the way to her house with Han Yoo-ra, I was swept along.

Since I was tired after clearing the dungeon, it was difficult to show off my strength properly, and it was a time when I felt overwhelmed by the appearance of more monsters than expected.

That’s when I saw a girl with long black hair in a school uniform who was in danger of dying.

Hunter’s meaning of existence was to protect people, and he tried to defend himself by blowing himself up, but instead he was attacked and his consciousness was cut off.

And the attack he received at that time had the fatal result of becoming a body unable to use magical powers.

I don’t regret saving that girl, though.

“Actually, I was there at the time. I saw Wonwoo struggle alone while protecting civilians until Hunter support came.”

“Yes? Hunter Choi Sujeong is there?”

At that time, Choi Soo-jeong was 20 years old at the time, so it was 3 years ago when she was 17 years old. This was before she even debuted as a Hunter.

“Because I woke up after the incident that day. Seeing Wonwoo-nim and thinking ‘I want to be like that too!’, I woke up.”

“hahahaha… ….”

I laughed out loud at Sujeong Choi’s words.

It is said that the conditions for awakening vary greatly from person to person, but most of them wake up just before extreme training or death. .

It seems that the conditions for awakening are exceptional for people with excellent talent.

“He was a mentor in my heart who made me awaken as a hunter, so I always wanted to invite Wonwoo when I started a guild.”

“I see… “

I can understand the reason for doing this.

However, something just didn’t make me feel refreshed. Reasonable doubt that that’s all there is to it.

“But to be honest, I don’t think I will be of much help to the guild with my current abilities.”

“Ah, if that’s the case, don’t worry. I know everything about Wonwoo’s current situation. Oh, I didn’t mean to do a background investigation.”

“It’s okay. Information research is essential to recruiting guild members.”

“Anyway, I was going to tell you when you join the guild, but I’m going to examine Wonwoo’s body myself and treat him.”

“… Yes?”

It was literally a story that can only be described as unconventional.

Unlike normal hunters with one unique attribute, Choi Sujeong was a dual hunter with two unique attributes.

One is [Cleave], Which shows overwhelming killing power. The remaining one was [Salvation], An ability that can heal people even before they die.

It was strong enough just by looking at the force using [Cut], But the effect was also top-notch in terms of healing-type characteristics, which are rare in the world.

As a result, people with countless wealth and honor are lining up to meet only once.

Of course, Choi Soo-jeong completely ignored it.

Choi Soo-jeong declared that she would take care of my current body and treat me.

“Are you worried about entrusting it to me?”

As the eyes in the red eyes wavered slightly as he looked at me, he held on to staring blankly at the nostalgia and denied those words.

“No. It’s not… It’s embarrassing.”

“No. Because of course you have to do it. It is also for the guild.”

As soon as I heard those words, a thought suddenly popped into my head.

Until I was injured, I was also making a name for myself as one of the top 5 promising prospects for next-generation hunters along with Yura.

However, she eventually fell apart due to an injury, and now Han Yu-ra became an S-class hunter, raising her awareness.

At this time, if I come back, I will be able to attract attention once again with a reflective benefit, such as ‘S-class hunter Han Yu-ra’s childhood friend returns.’

Then, of course, interest in the guild will inevitably grow.

The Crystal Guild also had Choi Soo-jung, but the guild’s reputation was not something that could be built in a short period of time, so it was virtually unknown at the moment.

In other words, it can be used as a PR role to promote the name of the guild by treating me and raising the stock price.

It’s not certain, but it’s certainly a more convincing story than doing this out of goodwill for nothing in return.

I felt a bit bitter when I thought that it was a calculated recruitment after all.

“… Can I think about it and contact you?”

“Ah… , Then I will give you the number, so please call me right here.”

Choi Soo-jeong looks very sad.

When I took out my cell phone and made a call, my cell phone immediately rang and then quickly turned off.

“Yes, I will make a decision and contact you.”

“Then I’ll just go. I hope you will come to our guild.”

In this way, Choi Soo-jeong spoke again with earnestness and left.

After that, I sat down on the chair Choi Soo-jeong had been sitting on. He needed to organize his thoughts.

An S-class came and told me to join their guild, said that they would even provide treatment under good conditions, and even got that S-class number.

Someone will tell you to stop delusion like that, but that was what actually happened just a moment ago.

However, I feel uneasy as I feel that I am not serious about something and that I am using myself.

I would have been more comfortable if I had honestly said it was a publicity tool for the guild.

It’s hard to believe Choi Soo-jung because he seems to be hiding his true feelings.

Since you’ve already tasted the bitterness of betrayal, you tend to cringe at such trivial things.

“Ha… , What do we do.”

As I prostrated myself on my desk, I fell into deeper thoughts.

*

“Welcome, lady.”

“Oh, everything was fine, right?”

Arriving at her house, Choi Soo-jung said to her secretary, Kang So-young, that the smile and kindness she had shown to Lee Won-woo was nowhere to be seen.

“Yes, the purchase of guild buildings and permission to establish guilds have been handled perfectly.”

Looking at Kang So-yeong in a suit, who still looks neat and tidy today, Soo-jeong Choi waved her hands back and forth and said,

“Then, go inside today.”

“I still have time and I have things to do, so that’s okay.”

Choi Su-jeong frowned at Kang So-young’s answer, then crossed her arms and said in a voice full of annoyance.

“Didn’t I say don’t make me say it twice? I haven’t been able to go home because I’ve been busy lately. Wouldn’t it be nice if I got scolded by my younger brother, whom I found so hard?”

“… All right. Then let’s go.”

“Go ahead. Don’t bother.”

Kang So-yeong leaves the house after bowing her head in spite of Choi Soo-jung’s vitriol.

Choi Soo-jung saw her from the back and shook her head and headed to her own room, her most comfortable and favorite space.

When you open the door, what you see is a pile of photos and frames.

Wonwoo Lee is drinking water. Wonwoo Lee instructs something. Lee Won-woo is sleepy. Wonwoo Lee sighs… ….

All of them contained various images of Lee Won-woo.

And the person next to Lee Won-woo, who seemed to be a woman from time to time, was all painted black with magic.

Choi Soo-jeong lay down on the bed as if tossing her body.

After that, she draped her slender legs over the long pillow on the bed and hugged her, repeating Lee Won-woo’s name over and over again.

“Haa… , Wonwoo. Wonwoo. Wonwoo. Wonwoo. Wonwoo. “

Sujeong Choi recalled what happened today.

The first day we actually meet after awakening.

From that day on, she found Wonwoo and she always secretly watched over her, but it was the first time in three years that he actually met her face, so it was a very trembling moment of reunion.

When she sees herself for the first time, she looks startled.

She gazed blankly at him then lost in her own beauty.

And she even blushes, apologizing for such behavior.

She was so lovely that I wanted to hug her.

She’s 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, she’s a month, 1 year a year.

After entering the house, she glanced around at the familiar space she had been watching through the tiny camera installed to protect Lee Won-woo.

At that time, Wonwoo’s nose fills her unexpectedly.

It was a fragrance that stimulated the tip of the nose that could never be captured in a photo or video.

At the thought that it was Wonwoo’s scent, my face strangely reminded me of it, and I felt uncomfortable, as if my body was getting hot and languid.

She had to work very hard to pretend that nothing was wrong, at least for today, in order not to be found out.

It’s hard to be rejected because you think you’re a strange person.

After that, the story of recruiting the guild, which went into the main topic, went better than expected.

Although I was a little concerned about his attitude as if something had subtly changed right before we broke up.

Still, I believe that the call will definitely come.

I’m not one to give up the life of a hunter easily.

In addition, the pretentious year that used to take advantage of Wonwoo is gone.

It was a year when I used the name of childhood friend and Wonwoo’s affection as a weapon to force sacrifices.

You can be sure that you are different from that girl.

I will always look at Wonwoo, want him, love him, and protect him so that I can always lean on him.

Because I am the only one who can heal my exhausted body and mind.

‘Please contact me as soon as possible. If you keep making me wait, I might really not be able to stand it any longer.’

Choi Soo-jung gave more strength to the pillow she was holding and hugged her tightly, earnestly praying that the wait would end soon.
