Breaking Up With the Number 1 S-Class

35 – Reunion with the guild leader who rejected me [EPISODE – 2]

I ran into Yoo Eun-ha, but it didn’t matter.

Just meeting an old classmate? It was just that.

It wasn’t something I cared about, and I didn’t want to worry about it any more.

Without regret, I left the place with Park Jin-ha, and we headed to a clothing store.

A luxury store in downtown Seoul, we went there.

Anyway, as Yoo Eun-ha said, they definitely look like lovers.

Everyone around us was mistaken for lovers,

Seeing Park Jin-ha’s red face, he considered that to be certain.

I don’t have the hobby of dating a 17-year-old high school girl…

To me, Park Jin-ha was just a younger sister with a lot of aegyo like Lee Si-eun.

“Siwoo. How is it? Does it suit you?”

“Yes. It suits you well.”

Park Jin-ha showed me the clothes he had just changed into.

Park Jin-ha, wearing a cute jacket and a skirt that matches her red hair.

The look was quite stylish and pretty.

On top of that, I also thought that if he had a kind and charming personality, he would be very popular with his classmates.

Well, even so, compared to my younger sister, Si-eun, she would fall far short.

“Siwoo-nim, could you pick out an outfit for me…?”

As I was watching Park Jin-ha’s fashion show, Park Jin-ha came close to me.

And this time, he asked me to coordinate.

“Yeah. So what?”

It wasn’t really that difficult.

And I have a fashion sense that I accumulated while working as Yoo Eun-ha’s manager.

At that time, I started to scan clothes one by one that matched Park Jin-ha’s easy-going appearance by making use of that skill.

So I walked around the store, picking out clothes one by one.

A white bunny hat that goes well with her red hair.

In addition, skinny jeans and a leotard top that reveal the body.

There is even a spring-scented cardigan that will slightly cover the exposed body.

She completed a fashion that went well with Park Jin-ha.

“Do you want to try this on?”

“Yes…! Sir Siu.”

When I picked out the clothes, Park Jin-ha smiled and went into the dressing room.

And after a few minutes, Jinjin came out wearing all his clothes.

“Does it suit you?”

“Yeah. Not bad.”

It also felt good, as I expected.

Feels so pretty and cute.

“Siwoo-nim likes this style…”

“Umm… not really. I thought it suited you.”

Fortunately, Park Jin-ha also seemed to like it.

His expression was astonished at how happy he was.

“Siwoo, would you like to try this on?”

“Is that so?”

So we continued shopping.

Me too, I should enjoy it when I enjoy it.

And then we saw an unexpected relationship there.

“Oh, isn’t it Siwoo? The next one over there… Park Jin-ha?”

I turned my head and looked at the owner of the voice.

A mature lady with purple hair and a proud face who knows how to make mature expressions.

It was Min Seo-jin, the guild leader of the [Witch’s Temptation] guild and the 8th ranked S-rank hunter.

“You can see everything in a place like this, Mr. Siwoo.”

“It’s been a while. Nice to meet you. Guild leader.”

“Nice to meet you too.”

We greeted each other warmly.

It was a formal greeting, though.

“Are you two dating?”

“Yes. Well, it’s not a date, but it’s similar.”

Min Seo-jin looked at the two of us, then opened her eyes slightly grim and continued talking as if she understood.

I can roughly guess what Min Seo-jin is thinking.

It must be misunderstood that the two of us are dating, just like everyone else.

But that was complete nonsense.

It was a complete misunderstanding.

It’s just an accompaniment to buying clothes.

“Siwoo seems to have a constant stream of women around him. Is it because of his looks?”

“Haha. Thank you for the compliment. I think the guild leader has a lot of men around him…”

“Ahaha. Siwoo… You seem to be secretly teasing me for teasing me a little. Unfortunately, I’m busy with work. I don’t have time for that.”

“Take it easy.”

I explained moderately, and continued my own tiki-taka with Min Seo-jin.

Min Seo-jin and I met after I went to the guild interview four days ago, but the reunion wasn’t too bad.

“Haa… What are you doing here, Mr. Witch?”

However, unlike me, who was not interested in me, the expression of Park Jin-ha, who was next to me, gradually darkened.

“Hello Jinha too. Don’t be so vigilant.”

“I don’t think that’s possible.”

“… It’s a little sad that you seem to be hated…”

Park Jin-ha was wary of Min Seo-jin.

Min Seo-jin let out a bitter sigh when he saw Park Jin-ha.

Park Jin-ha is not on good terms with the large guilds.

It is said that they are not on good terms with not only the Order, but also the Sword Saint Society and the Witch’s Temptation Guild.

So, it would be natural to be cautious like this.

“Mr. Jinha. I’ll ask you again, but do you have any plans to join our guild?”

On the other hand, Min Seo-jin seemed to not want to miss Park Jin-ha’s big catch.

“Yes. Absolutely not. I’ll say it again, but I’ll be in the guild with my brother.”

“…If you go that far, I’ll have to give up.”

Min Seo-jin let out a bitter sigh.

“Who’s the kid in the back anyway?”

I was able to spot a girl behind Min Seo-jin as I looked at them.

“…”

It was a small-sized girl who stood behind Min Seo-jin and glared at me.

She was a pretty cute little girl with a hint of red.

Being behind Min Seo-jin, the witch, was cute, like a vigilant puppy.

“Aha! Even Siwoo doesn’t know about this guy. He’s ranked 9th in the S class. It’s Anseah with the nickname Pork Rang (爆狼).”

“S-rank 9th? It’s the first time I’ve seen this face.”

“It has to be. It’s the most important force of our witch guild.”

“Can I reveal that power like this?”

“There’s nothing to hide anymore.”

I honestly expected that it would be an unusual child,

It was quite unexpected that he was ranked 9th in the S class.

“… That child. Is he a test subject?”

“yes that’s right.”

However, it felt different than that.

Animal ears and tail…

Traces of artificially touching human genes were slightly visible.

So I asked Min Seo-jin, and Min Seo-jin seemed to have no intention of hiding it.

genetic manipulation.

I already knew that they did such things in The Witch’s Temptation.

In [Temptation of the Witch], it is said that human experimentation is conducted.

It is said that they do not hesitate to do quite inhumane acts.

To get more useful guild members.

The result must be Ansea in front of me now.

Obviously, while researching information, he knew that there was an S-rank ninth place in the [Witch’s Temptation] guild, but he was a mysterious figure.

But to meet them in a place like this now was quite a new feeling.

“Guild leader. Are you going to become the number 1 guild?”

“Yes. Of course.”

“Why do you want to be the number 1 guild?”

“Haha. Isn’t that obvious?”

As expected, the reason why the Witch’s Temptation Guild perpetrated such a thing was to become the No. 1 guild.

The three guilds, Church, Witch’s Temptation, and Swordsman Association, did everything they could to claim the top spot.

Even if it’s dirty, nasty, inhumane.

The reason Park Jin-ha hated large guilds was because of this dark side.

But apart from that, the reason for wanting to become the No. 1 guild is very simple.

One day, after becoming a gate and hunter society that suddenly appeared, the government lost its ability to manage society.

This is because in this hunter society, the army armed with guns and cannons cannot function properly.

In a situation where each hunter is a living gun and cannon, of course the government has no ability to control them.

Therefore, the government had no choice but to choose one way in the end when it came to security, other than policy.

That is to delegate all police powers to one top guild.

It makes the No. 1 guild entrusted with police authority to protect the safety and security of the country. That was government policy.

If you ask me why I chose this policy, there was no other way.

This is because the strongest armed group in the country is the No. 1 guild.

In other words, the No. 1 guild virtually reigned as the world’s police, military, and institutions.

That is why the honor and status of the No. 1 guild in this society is very great.

The No. 1 guild can be seen as the de facto ruler of the country.

In this country, it becomes a practically absolute group that no one who uses public power can stop.

The guild leader of the 1st place guild, not to mention the head of the Hunter Guild, and even the leader of the country cannot do anything recklessly.

That’s why all three large guilds are now aiming to become the No. 1 guild.

Because you can become the most effective ruler in the country.

So, no matter what means and methods are used, they are trying to become the No. 1 guild.

Even if that is inhumane.

“Siwoo-ssi. Are you going to do something useless?”

“No. It has nothing to do with me.”

But to be honest, I didn’t feel much.

It’s because I didn’t do anything that proud even in Yoo Eun-ha’s guild [Frozen Heart], which I belonged to.

Of course, [Frozen Heart] already occupied the first place, so it didn’t do as bad things as other large guilds, but it’s true that it was a guild that wasn’t proud.

It must be an adult situation that can’t be helped.

I am an adult who knows and understands that.

It didn’t really matter.

As long as it doesn’t directly harm me like the church.

“Shiwoo. Let’s go.”

Park Jin-ha urged from the side.

It seems that Park Jin-ha is very uncomfortable in this position.

“Okay. Well then, see you next time.”

“Yes… See you next time Siwoo.”

We smiled at each other and said goodbye and left.

However.

[Gugggggggg]

An unknown earthquake occurred.

“…!”

And the red gate opened before our eyes.

“Run…! Right now.”

As I looked at the gate, I heard an urgent shout, but it was already too late.

“Ugh…”

After a moment of dark silence, I came to my senses and looked around and found myself inside the gate.

Me, Park Jin-ha, and Ahn Se-ah.

In this way, the three people were sucked into Red Gate.
