A VIP as Soon as You Log In

The matter was simple. From the start, Eleanor had been struggling to explore the gate with Kang Shin-hyuk, and Lee Na-hee intervened without saying anything. Kang Shin-hyuk could be relieved if he was just with Eleanor, but the two of them together would be a recipe for trouble.

Since Baek In-ha wanted to entrust Oh Hye-na to him anyway, then the best option would be for all of them to go together.

"Shinyuk, youtricky…"

"Why are those people here, oppa?"

Baek, who had been quick to grasp the circumstances, glared at Kang Shin-hyuk with remorse for bringing Hye-na to such an awkward position.

He also felt mad at the fact that Kang Shin-hyuk was going to enter the gate with two women without telling him as well. On the other hand, Oh Hye-na looked around the party in a daze as she couldn't figure out the situation. When Kang Shin-hyuk met her gaze, it quickly shifted to one of hostility despite the last 'thank you' she had givenhim.

"How could you bring ushere?"

"Quiet.

Oh, you know you have to come too?"

"Madman, leave meout."

"Okay…"

As Kang Shin-hyuk worked hard to convince Baek, Eleanor was staring at him with a look that said all the evils of the world had been presented before her. Baek could tell she had misunderstood him.

"Well, why did I bring Hye-na?

To get Shinyuk to teach her swordsmanship…"

"What do you want with our vice-captain?"

Eleanor put a great emphasis on the part 'our vice-captain.' It seemed that Lee Na-hee had been bullied into joining the club, at least for the sake ofthis.

"I was asking him for a favor…"

"If that's thecase…"

Eleanor's resentful gaze turned to Oh Hye-na, who had been brought here with no warning of the situation she was walking into.

Compared to when she had previously met Kang Shin-hyuk, she seemed much more spirited when she greeted her seniors.

"Hello. I am Oh Hye-na from Vanguard. I will be entering Shinyoung in March. Thank you verymuch."

"Yes, I know that. By the way,Vanguard…"

Instead of Eleanor, Lee Na-hee spoke up. Oh Hye-na seemed more confident now.

"Yes.

Although it is probationary, I am working in aunit."

"Okay, okay, cool. I like types like you."

"Thank you. I came here because of In-ha oppa. I didn't hear what I was doing… shall we goback?"

"Huh?

No…"

Lee Na-hee, who wasn't a welcome guest herself, greeted Oh Hye-na with a large smile, quickly calculating that she would have an advantage over Eleanor if they had more people around.

"Isn't it okay? It's a large gate, anyway. Ellie, are you okay?"

"Large is large… yes. Everyone, come here."

Eleanor grumbled, then sighed and gathered the group together.

The party had gathered together in a vacant lot on a hill outside of Seoul, with no one else around except for a member of the British royal family guarding the gate. Even if Eleanor had been kicked out or whatever, her power was still valid even in a distant foreigncountry.

"Where we'll be entering is an S-rank gate."

"S-rank?!

An S-rank among the gates nearby… ah!"

Oh Hye-na, who had been maintaining a calm attitude, suddenly appeared frightened. It was a place that even famous guilds wouldn't enter without a thorough plan of attack. It certainly wasn't the type of place for a few students to gather and attack lightly.

However, all of them appeared to be comfortable, and she soon realized why.

"All of them, Masked Bacchus…"

They hadn't been dealing with anything below S-rank these days. Their skills have been growing rapidly from the intense practice they had engaged in over such a short time, so of course, they could approach an S-rank gate so casually.

Oh Hye-na had heard about the members of Masked Bacchus from Baek so that she could understand their confidence.

"To be honest, more than half of our team's power is from Shinyuk and Claire noona."
