If you wish to see Seora's adventure 'till the end, please refrain from posting our links to social medias.

Fortunately, he hadn’t noticed.
“You knew all along?”
“No, I didn’t. Right before I left for the United States, my brother mentioned that you were his friend, and it triggered my memory…”
As soon as she uttered those words, embarrassment flooded over her. Seora blushed and gently touched Elizabeth’s ear as he peacefully slept. Startled, Elizabeth woke up, but Seora couldn’t let go of her hand.
“Ahem.”
Seora cleared her throat, and a shy Do Junyeong finally spoke up, “During the interview, you didn’t show any signs, so I assumed you had forgotten.”
“Well, it was a long time ago… Besides, you look a bit different now.” Since Yun Jaeheon, their only connection, had left for Athena, they hadn’t seen each other, making it harder to remember.
“I-it’s okay to treat me casually in private. You’ve been like a younger sister since childhood, so there’s no need to feel uncomfortable.”
“That won’t do. We’re colleagues in a reputable company now.”
Feeling Do Junyeong’s sincerity, Seora nodded silently. She felt so embarrassed that she thought she might die. Her face was burning.
Kyaung, Kyaung. Elizabeth tugged at her clothes and whimpered, but Seora couldn’t pay attention and roughly patted his head. She couldn’t see the shocked expression on the fox’s face.
“Th-thank you. You’ve always been there to comfort me after my parents passed away. I remember having such a friend. It was a fond memory.”
Despite the embarrassment, she wanted to convey her sincerity. Do Junyeong smiled softly, indicating that her feelings had been conveyed well. After having a pale face from a nightmare, a blush finally appeared. “I see. That’s good.”
What’s this? It’s unfair for him to smile so happily with such a handsome face.
Was it because she realized that the person she had considered just a good boss was actually closer to her than she thought? His smiling face, which was pleasant to behold, caught her attention, particularly.
Seora’s face burned even more, and she unknowingly hid her face against Elizabeth.
〖“Seora, can I hit this guy?”〗
A voice sounded, snapping her out of her thoughts. Elizabeth’s annoyed expression took her by surprise. How could a fox have such clear facial expressions?
〖“Why are you whispering so teasingly to each other? It’s making me jealous.”〗
Damn it. Seora suddenly felt embarrassed about having this conversation while Elizabeth was, quite literally, between them. As she blushed again, he curtly whispered.
〖“Seora, I hope you don’t have feelings for that guy.”〗
No way! If you keep saying weird things, I’ll cancel the summon, she grumbled inwardly while keeping her mouth shut. However, his discontented expression continued to annoy her.
How was it possible for a fox to make such human-like expressions? It was beyond her understanding.
“Yun Seora.” Seora, still holding firmly onto the front paw that seemed ready to slap her cheek, turned to look at Do Junyeong. “Now that your true identity has been revealed, it’s only a matter of time before it becomes known to the media. Neither Japan nor China have a reason to keep it hidden.”
“I suppose you’re right. I’m prepared for that.”
“While the association’s president will protect your identity, your home address will also become known soon.”
Ah, the neighbors already knew about her. It would be impossible to keep them quiet.
“How about staying in a hotel or at the association’s president’s place for the time being?”
“I think it’s better to move somewhere else entirely. Somewhere that guarantees identity protection.”
Finding such a place in Seoul was incredibly easy. She could simply choose one of the luxury buildings where celebrities or wealthy families resided.
Right. This could be an opportunity to live in a penthouse. Selling the loot obtained from the Japan Dungeon would bring in a substantial income, so it wouldn’t be difficult to afford a home with a view of the Han River, like Seong Jarim’s.
Her status as a civil servant was special, and as an L-class Awakened, she didn’t have to worry about complicated matters. It was truly fortunate. Haha, a penthouse. Hahaha. Finally, I’m going to live in a penthouse!

There is a saying that even a horse without hooves can still travel a thousand miles.
As soon as the eight Hunters entered the Japan Dungeon, Headbang’s true identity was revealed to the world.
Yun Seora, who had been a mere F-class civil servant just a few months ago, became the one and only Awakened in the world to rapidly rise from S-class to L-class.
Information about her was disclosed by China and Japan, and those who had been eagerly awaiting the desired information gathered in Busan, cheering with excitement.
After completing the dungeon conquest, they had to pass through this place to return to Seoul. Busan Harbor was bustling with Headbang’s fans, reporters eager for a scoop, as well as victims and their families finally liberated from the Cheorwon Dungeon.
After a few hours had passed, along with the news of the successful conquest, a yacht arrived, and the roaring crowd fell silent. Slowly, Yun Seora, also known as Headbang, emerged from the pure white yacht, appearing like foam on the waves.
Her stylish jacket fluttered, and her presence exceeded everyone’s expectations. Her upright posture silenced any doubts, and her confident gaze remained fixed ahead.
She was the third L-class Hunter in Korea, a miraculous reawakening. The most awe-inspiring Hunter in history.
The name and appearance of Headbang, Yun Seora, had made a deep impression on people worldwide.

【Title: Wake Up, Headbang Fans!!!!!! The Article is Out!!!!!!!!!!】
【Finally, the identity of Headbang is revealed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When they announced she was going to raid the dungeon in Japan, I couldn’t help but wonder, COULD IT BE??? But it wasn’t a domestic dungeon, HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE??? But now, it’s confirmed. Today, all the Headbang fans I know had a heart attack.
Ah, damn it, I can’t calm down. Wow, this is insane. Just the fact that she’s a civil servant affiliated with the association drives people crazy. She used to work under that intimidating Tiger as a civil servant, almost died, miraculously Awakened and became an S-class, worked hard in the dungeons, and finally reached L-class by conquering the Cheorwon Dungeon.
Wait, is she the protagonist of a novel? It feels like I’ve seen this in a boys’ manga. Or am I just imagining things? No, it’s not my imagination. Reality is even more incredible. Manga can’t keep up with reality~!!!~!
Her calm demeanor during the interview radiates true charisma. The charisma is off the charts!!!! According to the reports from Japan, she almost single-handedly solved that dungeon that appeared in the sea. I’m officially lying down here, opening my coffin. Is this where they distribute coffins? Please give me one because I just had a charisma overdose.
I fell asleep as a victim of charisma. ㅇ<-<】
【Comments】
Today, Headbang fans are going crazy. Why are there so few posts??? Seriously, this is getting boring. Headbang is a shining presence in her own right, so it’s only natural!!!!! Praise Headbang!!!!!
└What kind of provocation is this? Oh, just another ordinary Headbang fan. But you’re absolutely right!!!!! This is only natural!!!!!!!
└Another Headbang fan here!!!!!! Her name is engraved in my heart!!!!!!!
└Everyone’s losing their minds.
I heard that the Boss Monster in the Japan Dungeon was the Phantom Overlord. They said many Hunters perished, tormented by nightmares, but Headbang just crushed it effortlessly. It’s causing a stir even overseas. Our Headbang has quickly become an international sensation~~~
└I’m really curious about how she managed to defeat the strongest mob that causes mental decay. I hope she can share her strategy later.
└Yes, please, I really want to know. I almost died fighting just one Phantom. I truly admire her.
She went from F-class to L-class. I wonder what her awakened Entity is. No F-class has ever awakened beyond B-class. How is this even possible?? Is her Entity even stronger than Tiger-nim’s highest-ranked Entity????
└The Tiger fans must be speechless. Honestly, Tiger-nim has been S-class for 12 years, and Headbang reached L-class in just a few months. The Tiger fans better stay quiet.
└It’s not just the highest rank; it’s like the highest of the highest tier.
└No matter what others say, in the end, Headbang is the strongest……
After Headbang’s identity was revealed, the association had an incredibly busy day. They were inundated with hundreds of phone calls and interview requests pouring in from all over the world.
Among them, the most desperate contact came from none other than the United States.
Among them, the most persistent contact came from the United States. They tried to use Yun Seora, an association official, as a connection to Headbang. Nervously, they requested a conversation, but Seora smiled politely and ignored their pleas.
Eventually, unable to bear it any longer, the America Association reached out to the president of Korea.
“You seem more occupied now than when the two L-class Hunters emerged,” President Jang Inhu remarked, bursting into laughter as he had lunch with Song Hanna.
“You look quite pleased with yourself to say that.”
“Did you notice? As expected, I can’t hide anything from President Song. You’re right. I never imagined the day would come when America would reach out to me. Haha. I believe I’ve done a really good job as president.”
“Hunter Yun Seora has brought you joy, Mr. President.”
“It’s not just joy. Thanks to her, our country’s prestige has increased significantly, and that makes me happy. The citizens can also feel more secure. That’s why I want to ask…”
“If Hunter Yun will stay in Korea?”
“Isn’t it a different situation from Hunter Kang Sejun and Hunter Seong Jarim?”
Kang Sejun and Seong Jarim couldn’t be controlled even with Song Hanna’s influence. Both of them were too powerful, and their sudden appearance left no proper knowledge on how to handle them.
However, Yun Seora was different. She had been a government official working in the association since her F-class days, and that hadn’t changed even now.
“The United States whines, and the National Assembly spouts nonsense.”
Song Hanna’s straightforward words brought a sense of relief to Jang Inhu. Since the revelation of Headbang’s identity, there had been individuals claiming to have a connection with Song Hanna who were continuously babbling nonsense. Unlike Do Junyeong, Yun Seora was a low-level civil servant with no real power in the association, so these individuals were attempting to make a show of themselves by stirring up trouble.
“These people have been spouting nonsense more than once or twice.”
“This time they’ve gone too far. If possible, I hope President Jang can personally intervene.”
“It seems President Song holds that employee dear.”
“She is indeed very special, as will soon become apparent. Seora is Yun Jae-heon’s younger sister and Hyeon Jaehui’s daughter.”
Cold sweat ran down Jang Inhu’s back for the first timek, dampening his previously pleasant mood.
“They truly are spouting nonsense. I will make sure to handle it appropriately.”
Yun Seora turned out to be none other than Hyeon Jaehui’s daughter. If anyone dared to harm her, no one would be safe.
Wasn’t it Song Hanna who sent the former president, who had driven numerous Hunters, including Hyeon Jaehui, to their deaths, to prison?
“It would be wise for President Jang to take care of Hunter Yun Seora. She holds a leash that even I couldn’t put on Hunters Kang Sejun and Seong Jarim.”
“Is that so? But back then, Hunter Yun was an S-class.”
“I’m not entirely sure why, but it appears that the two of them are particularly vulnerable in the presence of Hunter Yun. The power dynamics among the three of them clearly favor Hunter Yun.”
“If President Song says so, then it must be true. I understand.” Jang Inhu nodded, his expression determined.
Being the daughter of Hyeon Jaehui was already enough reason to justify protecting her, but with two L-class Hunters under her control, it became even more imperative to keep Yun Seora in Korea. Even if it meant granting her every desire.
“We will firmly reject the request from the United States, so rest assured. Ah… now that I think about it, Hunter Yun will soon enter the Labyrinth. Such a young person… I’m sure you must be deeply concerned.”
“That’s true. It would be preferable if they could lead more comfortable lives, but I never expected to see the siblings entering the Labyrinth one after another. Their family background is quite remarkable,” Song Hanna sighed, her voice tinged with sadness, as she took a sip of her rice wine.
