Chapter 441. Seosun’s Attack (3) Meeting someone and being asked outright if she would “resign from office” was certainly unexpected. Seonwoo Yeon didn’t answer immediately. All she did was step past the man in black blocking the doorway and activate the digital door lock pad. Standing there, she paused and fell into thought. ‘In a way, maybe it’s for the best that I found out who this person really is so quickly.’ Beep, beep, beep. The sound of the five-digit apartment password being entered echoed for a few seconds. ‘If I had kept interacting with them without knowing they were an alien, I would have misunderstood them for life.’ In the process, the unique number that granted access to the room was fully exposed, but...
Chapter 440. Seosun’s Attack (2) What on earth did all that mean? Jung Haseong peered over Kim Giryeo’s shoulder to get a better look at the phone. ‘This is long.’ Because there were so many characters, the message didn’t immediately catch his eye, but judging by the presence of blue text indicating hyperlinks, it didn’t seem to be a casual chat. ‘Could it be a spam message? Ah, no. Now that I look, it’s from the National Tax Service.’ For reference, even a seemingly perfect national hero is, in the end, just an ordinary person. When a long letter is placed right in front of them, most people can’t help but feel curious. So the dark-haired man found himself unconsciously drawn in, scanning the message sent to Kim Giryeo.
Chapter 439. Seosun’s Attack Anyway, I managed to stop the galbitang mission safely, but come to think of it, it’s almost time to eat anyway... ‘Is it still far?’ It was the moment Kim Giryeo had a small thought. It seemed that the customary procedures the awakened individuals in the hallway had been waiting for were finally coming to an end. Various cognitive abilities, muscle function, and even minor health factors like cholesterol levels. Well, it was at the request of a VVIP hunter who, with the surplus money typical of hunters, donated an astonishing amount—over ten billion won. The hospital staff naturally had every reason to devote their full effort to this matter, so the examination process itself was bound to take...
Chapter 438. Don’t Adjust Your Shoes in a Melon Field, Don’t Fix Your Hat Under a Plum Tree (9) ‘Come to think of it, has that Earthling ever cried out this loudly before?’ At least in my memory, I had never seen such a scene. The black-haired Earthling continued to wail loudly, holding onto someone else even after several seconds had passed. He opened his usually tightly-closed mouth completely, letting out a full-blown cry, and even I was startled by how intense his reaction was. ‘It seems like he really cherished his mother, huh?’ Family. It’s a concept I’ve never had, and honestly, don’t really plan to have, so it doesn’t fully resonate with me. ‘Still, seeing the Earthling jump for joy… it’s not so bad.’ I quietly...
Chapter 437. Don’t Adjust Your Shoes in a Melon Field, Don’t Fix Your Hat Under a Plum Tree (8) ‘No matter where you go in the universe, overwork in the research field is the same.’ At that moment, the alien standing before the hospital bed slowly closed his eyes, as if accepting the law of nature. “Wait a second. What did you just say? So you’re saying... your illness is cured? No, no—no matter how much you want to reassure someone, that’s not the kind of lie you should ever tell...!” By now, thanks to all the modifications, his eyes no longer dried out easily. But the reason the blond awakener closed his eyelids in such a moment was quite simple. *** ‘I need to organize my thoughts.’ Noisy. -No matter… even so, that...
Chapter 436. Don’t Adjust Your Shoes in a Melon Field, Don’t Fix Your Hat Under a Plum Tree (7) It was around the moment when Kim Giryeo hesitantly came to a stop. “A, as expected you still think it’s no good after seeing how we work?” “Huh?” “We constantly commit mistakes due to incompetence, and if something rare happens to appear, like last time, we tear at each other as if we’re trying to kill one another... well! If you look at it from the outside, the current state of our industry must truly be a mess.” So in the end, this kind of talk was bound to come up. Someone clenched their mouth, thinking such a thought.
Chapter 435. Don’t Adjust Your Shoes in a Melon Field, Don’t Fix Your Hat Under a Plum Tree (6) A retirement with no stated reason. On top of that, the long-completed private lessons worth 6 billion won per month, and so on. Come to think of it, with all these matters tangled up, there hadn’t been any reason to exchange personal messages with the other party for quite some time—but now, a rare situation had arisen. ‘The only update that had naturally reached my ears… was that this person had gone to Switzerland to deal with [Hydra]. I only learned about the trip to the U.S. later.’ Tuk, tuk. Annoyed by the regrown gray hairs, Jung Haseong absentmindedly fiddled with his hair. After a brief moment of hesitation, he decided...
Chapter 434. Don’t Adjust Your Shoes in a Melon Field, Don’t Fix Your Hat Under a Plum Tree (5) Anyway, she can’t believe how this whole mess ended up happening. ‘These... are supposed to be awakened like me, living in modern society?’
Chapter 433. Don’t Adjust Your Shoes in a Melon Field, Don’t Fix Your Hat Under a Plum Tree (4) Anyway, he only knows how to use a telephoto camera. Artifacts can’t be held in your hand, and a civilian paparazzo—who can’t attempt dungeon raids—apparently pretended to be crazy and sold the information. So the executives gathered there made a quick decision. “First, let’s go to the site. There could be hunters sneaking into the passage, taking advantage of the chaos.” Even if we waste time here… it would be like trying to catch a horse with no legs. Hearing that people had gathered, Jeong Ha-seong was the first to stand up. The red-haired esper also moved relatively quickly. After all, they were all S-rank hunters who frequently...
Chapter 432. Don’t Adjust Your Shoes in a Melon Field, Don’t Fix Your Hat Under a Plum Tree (3) The question of what would happen if the all-purpose elixir from another world were a rare drop that only came from boss monsters—eerily enough, the question posed by Kang Chang-ho carried a disturbingly high degree of plausibility.
