Choi Cheol-sik, who was unnecessarily setting the mood, carefully opened his mouth.

"Are you not joining Seoul, or is it that you can't?"

Oh, he's hitting the sharp spot now.

The distinction between "not" and "can't" must be because of the citizens’ transformation into monsters.

"To be honest, it's closer to the latter."

"The Association estimates that there are a few thousand of them. Most of them are..."

Choi Cheol-sik lowered his voice.

"Yes. They're monsters. At first, they might be fine, but it's obvious that they'll be isolated from society. So, it’s much better for me to deal with them outside."

It’s better for me to take them under my wing than to have them live in Seoul, where they'll be scorned.

And I will use the power of the monsters to fend off enemies in the fight against the Sin of Lust and get them recognized by society.@@novelbin@@

"I understand. Well, I’ll leave for now. But do you have something to say to Chajieun?"

"Oh, actually, I promised that if I win, I’d take her."

"Ho. It feels like just yesterday when you were crying and whining, saying it had to be Yoo Jin-seok."

He’ll probably still be like that. It’s just that I lost to him, and that's why this is happening.

"No, I..."

"You didn’t expect to lose, right?"

* “Crazy, they actually won.”

* “Where did the people saying the government and the Guild Alliance would win go?”

* “Seriously, I made a killing with this treasonous bet.”

* “So, their skill must be at least on par with Chajieun, right? Chajieun is still competing for the top 2 or 3 spot among domestic hunters.”

* “Wasn’t the fight with Yoo Jin-seok more about him going easy on Chajieun?”

* “But didn’t Yoo Jin-seok back off this time?”

* “Guild Alliance was passive, didn’t you think?”

* “That’s because Songdo’s forces are strong. Even if they win, they’ll suffer huge losses. And if the Korean Guild Alliance takes too much damage, China will step in immediately. That’s something we can’t deny.”

* “Baekhwa Sect! Baekhwa Sect! Baekhwa Sect!”

* "Stop cooperating with Ha Jeong-seok."

* "Did you know why?"

* "You can’t win anyway. Baekhwa is strong. Shinseonjo are powerful, but none of them are S-rank. Before you owe Ha Jeong-seok a favor, think about your family."

* "Understood. Since the first Sword Saint said so, I’ll watch and wait."
