Chapter 47
As soon as Christopher returned to the hotel, he collapsed on the bed. He was so drunk he smelled like a man who’d fallen into a liquor jar.
“The association’s president is really crazy…”
The prepared alcohol was enough to make even an S-class drunk. Song Hanna was a really scary person to turn into an enemy.
“Are you okay, Guild Leader?”
“No, I’m not okay. I think she’ll take me to drink every day…”
The faces of the guild members who were around him suddenly darkened.
But he couldn’t help but accept this because Song Hanna was being grumpy right now. She was a great person who wouldn’t let him see even a strand of the L-classes’ hair until her heart was relieved, so the first thing he had to do was to please her.
“By the way, what happened? Did you look for the L-classes of Korea?”
He didn’t intend to continue drinking with Song Hanna. He had to figure out the location and information of the L-classes in advance in case something went wrong.
Two L-classes Awakeneds born one after another in Korea. It was his goal this time to meet at least one of them.
“We’ve looked into it, but I don’t think it will be easy either way.”
“Of course. Just look at the people on our side…”
The guild members who remembered the L-class civilians in the United States became silent for a moment. One of them has common sense, but the other two were seriously… Oh, goosebumps. Let’s not think about them.
“No, that’s not what I meant. I can’t find the whereabouts of the Korean L-classes.”
“It’s only been one day…”
“I think it will be difficult. Hunter Kang Sejun’s face is known, but he is a Mage. He can’t be tracked at all, so I think he’s putting special magic on his body.”
“Well. If it’s magic, there’s nothing we can do about it. The other one?”
“That’s more of a problem. Neither the name nor the face was revealed here. We can’t narrow it down because they’re only known for being a woman and a combatant.”
“The only piece of information we got is that her eye color is very unique.”
“Eye color… I see. Eye color often changes due to the influence of ability.”
There was such a person in L-class in the US and one in S-class in Korea. The chances were high.
“If that’s the case, there must have been at least one person who’s seen her coming and going. We’ve got a clue, so let’s take it slow.”
Of course, just because you’re looking doesn’t mean there’s hope. The White House told him to bring them back no matter what, even by giving billions of won.
To be honest, Christopher was pessimistic about this mission. It might be possible if it’s a different country. But the possibility of stealing from the place where Song Hanna is? Zero.
Even though Korea was a democratic country, the title of the only country that hadn’t lost a single S-class to another country was all because Song Hanna’s giant tree had strong roots in the land.
Even Christopher wasn’t confident he could beat her.
‘But I can’t do nothing even if it’s a challenge.’
Christopher sighed and fell onto the bed.
I’ll have to think about it again later. It’s difficult to think more because of the alcohol. If Song Hanna was aiming for this to hold me back, it was a success.
He burst into tears and soon fell asleep snoring.

“Um, this is troublesome.”
In the morning. Seora, who was on her way to work, could not get closer and hid behind a building near the association.
Christopher and his guild members were encamped in front of the association.
“Kang Hanseo was drunk enough to talk nonsense, so I thought Campbell wouldn’t be okay either…”
I can’t believe he’s standing on two feet instead of four at this early hour despite those dark circles under his eyes. I underestimated his willpower.
“He doesn’t know my face anyway. Should we just go straight through?”
Seora glanced at Jarim muttering above her head. The golden eyes exposed through the curly red hair were filled with a solid light.
Even the average person could recognize that she was an unusual person from a hundred meters away, not to mention Christopher. I should tell her to wear lenses.
“I think we need to find another way.”
“Are there any other options?”
“Well…”
“Somehow, I think I’ve seen something like this before. Is it just me?”
The moment they fell into agony, the two widened their eyes at the familiar voice they had heard from somewhere.
“Huh?”
“Huh?”
Kang Sejun was looking at them with pity.
“Mage-ssi.”
“Mage-ssi.”
“Did my name become Mage-ssi?”
“Mage-ssi, what are you doing here? Are you going to work for the association?”
“No way. I came here for business but felt familiar energy here.”
Sejun’s gaze brushed the front of the association.
“But what should I do? This time I can’t help you either. I have no desire to stand out for nothing.”
The handsome Kang Sejun smiled kindly.
It seemed that he was very determined to confuse them by using beauty tricks, but that tactic didn’t work for Seora, who had already seen in her dreams a more desirable beauty than Kang Sejun. Her eyes flashed.
‘Oho?’
Come to think of it, Kang Sejun helped when Sung Jarim first appeared. Right, he did.
Seora glanced up and saw Jarim looking excited, perhaps thinking the same thing. As expected, 100 years of experience doesn’t go anywhere.
“So this time, the two of you will figure it out…”
Why hesitate? Seora made a move at once.
“Kyaaaaaa! It’s Kang Sejuuuuuuun! Korea’s first L-Class Awakeneeeeeeeeeeed!”
After the first rhyme lifted with a voice full of power, it was Sung Jarim’s turn. Jarim, who smiled broadly like a flower in full bloom, pushed Kang Sejun out with L-class power.
She pushed him far away, so far away, enough to be clearly seen by the horde encamped in front of the association.
“What- You! You…!”
He panicked, but it was already too late.
“Hey, it’s Kang Sejun!”
“Guild Leader! That’s Hunter Kang Sejun!”
“Ch-chase him!”
The Guardian Guild and the cameras that came to film them quickly headed this way.
Although Kang Sejun gave an absurd look, the two women, who had no conscience, smiled and waved their hands toward him.
“You demons!”
Regardless of what Kang Sejun shouted or said from behind, Jarim grabbed Seora and started running towards the association.
Good bye, Kang Sejun! Throw away the shackles and restraints of the world and leave in search of happiness! Kang Sejun, we wish you happineeeeeeess!
Flash! Bang!
“Ahh! Kang Sejun is crazy!”
“Aaaah! My camera!”
Screams erupted with an angry thunderbolt from behind, but the two didn’t pay any attention to it. It was very refreshing to go to work by sacrificing one person.
“Whew, I didn’t know Mage-ssi could be so useful. What a good boy.”
As the loud thunderbolts echoed in the sky, employees looked out the window, asking what the hell was going on. Instead of explaining, Seora sat down with a wide smile.
“Someone should tell the president in advance to give up one L-class. There’s a lightning protest in front of the association. Seeing that people from the Guardian Guild are hanging next to him, Kang Sejun seems to want to go to America.”
The person who had said that didn’t seem to mean it, but if Kang Sejun had heard of it, he would have been very upset.
‘That’s not true? Nobody knows if Kang Sejun will go to America or not.’
He said he didn’t want to be caught, so it looks like he didn’t want to go…
‘Even Sung Jarim said she wouldn’t go.’
Seora glanced at Sung Jarim, who was surfing the internet with her cell phone, looking happy and excited, saying that Korea has developed a lot in the past 5 years.
On the day Hunter from the U.S decided to come, she had said:
‘I don’t care if it’s America or whoever. I’m not going anywhere. I’ll be right here, right next to you.’
Isn’t that a complete proposal line?
Actually, it meant that she was curious about the administrator’s contractor and wanted to stay by her side, but in any case, such exciting lines should be heard from a handsome man. Seora’d been very dissatisfied when she’d heard that confession from an elderly person over 100 years old who was not a handsome man.
Seora slapped Jarim on the forearm with a sigh.
[Administrator: (*´∇`)ノ]
[Administrator : (*´∇`)。o♡]
“Pfft.”
Then, because the administrator suddenly popped out, Seora’s hand ended up on the desk instead of continuing tormenting Jarim’s arm.
“Wh-what? You laughed as soon as you hit me? Did you want to hit me so badly?”
Jarim was crying next to her, but she couldn’t respond because she was too busy laughing. Look at that bright heart emoji.
‘Administrator, does this emoticon mean you will always be by my side?’
[Administrator: (*๓´╰╯`๓)♡]
At the heart-pounding message that returned again, Seora’s lips loosened, not knowing what to do. Seriously, how can you be so cute?
‘It’s a promise. Never leave. Please stay by my side. Because I don’t want a loved one to leave.’
The feeling of loss is terrifying. There’s nothing I hate or fear more than that.
But the system administrator is the strongest in the world and will not disappear because they’re above the Entities.
That’s fine. That’s all I need.
Seora lay on her desk and stretched out her hand. She tapped the administrator’s emoticon with the tip of her finger. It’s just a system, so it couldn’t be, but strangely, her fingertips seemed warm.
As the warmth spread and warmed her heart, Seora smiled joyfully.

Kang Sejun sighed and swept his hair away. Yoon Seora alone was overwhelming, but the synergy was no joke when Sung Jarim was added.
‘Baek Heewon said that Sung Jarim is as unique as me, so I came to find out what that meant, but this kind of interference…’
Kang Sejun looked at the people standing in front of him in annoyance.
Christopher Campbell bowed as their eyes met. His face, which had already suffered from a hangover and looked in poor condition, has now turned dark. This was because Kang Sejun was not suppressing his discomfort and letting his power loose.
Still, Christopher was on the better side than his guild members, who were scared and couldn’t move properly.
“Nice to meet you, Hunter Kang Sejun. My name is Christopher Campbell. I lead the Guardian Guild in America. It is an honor to meet you.”
Kang Sejun knew him well too. They’d run into each other many times before he regressed.
