Yoo Jinho placed emphasis on the words, ‘fair price’ .

    ‘He’s not wrong…’

    Jinho’s suggestion would be the best course of option for Jinwoo to safely obtain all the magic cores . Currently, the ownership of the magic cores was clear . No matter how greedy the man was, Hwang Dongseok could not take them with him to the afterlife . As such, Yoo Jinho had the legal rights to all the magic cores they carried . And now, the young man was offering it all to Jinwoo . This was different than taking them by force .

    ‘No reason to turn away good fortune like this…’

    After all, if it wasn’t for him, Yoo Jinho would already be dead or taken as hostage . In that line of thinking, it indeed was the fair price for Jinwoo to obtain all the magic cores .

    Watching Jinwoo’s expression soften, Yoo Jinho was sure that he had hit the right mark .

    ‘As I thought, the magic cores are the price of the blood he spilled taking down Hwang Dongseok’s party . That’s why he won’t refuse them . ’

    The two men’s idea of the ‘fair price’ was completely different, but neither of them would realize this .

    “Alright . ”

    At Jinwoo’s agreement, Yoo Jinho’s face brightened . The young man felt a little awe at what he perceived to be the Jinwoo’s ironclad conviction . But then, Jinwoo’s face became cold again .

    “But how would I be able to trust you?”

    Jinwoo thought back on the initial goal of this conversation . He did not frighten the young man for a material gain; he just wanted to make sure the events of this Raid would not cause him troubles in the future .

    “How could I betray the hyungnim that saved my life multiple times?”

    “You could always ignore the promise and go around blabbing your mouth off . ”

    Well, it wouldn’t really hurt him in the long run . Killing Hwang Dongseok’s party was 100% in self-defense . It was eight armed men versus just him, and they were the ones who attacked first . With the world’s laws having changed in the advent of Hunters, he would definitely be found not guilty in all of this . Still, he wanted to avoid all that if he could . For that, he needed Yoo Jinho’s cooperation .

    “Well?”

    Jinwoo pressed his question and stared . Yoo Jinho responded with a fierce look in his eyes .

    “I wouldn’t dare do such a cowardly thing! Especially to the savior of my life!”

    ‘Hmm…’

    He realized where he had seen that determined look in Yoo Jinho’s eyes before . It was the same eyes he defiantly stood up to Hwang Dongseok with .

    ‘Kid… you’re the real thing, aren’t you?’

    Give and Take .

    With his life on the line, Yoo Jinho chose to stand with Jinwoo . Putting his faith in him, the young man was ready to fight eight Hunters . And so, Jinwoo decided to return some of that faith .

    Well… after putting in some final touches .

    Jinwoo went over and picked up Hwang Dongseok’s shield .

    “You know, I’m still pissed about Hwang Dongseok’s betrayal . ”

    Casually turning the shield over in his hands, Jinwoo suddenly threw the shield at the wall .

    Crack!

    The shield became half embedded into the wall . Yoo Jinho gulped, and his body began to sweat .

    “My dongsaeng[1] won’t betray me like that, would he?”

    “Of-of course not, hyungnim . ”

    The Dungeon shook again, more violently than before .

    Shaaaaaake-!!

    Alright . Jinwoo was done teasing the young man . From the start, he had no plans to hurt Yoo Jinho . He felt that he had done enough and made his final decision .

    “Okay . Go grab their magic cores . We’re leaving the Dungeon . ”

    “Thank you very much, hyungnim!”

    Yoo Jinho stood up and bowed his entire upper body, making a 90-degree angle at the waist . The smile returned to his face .

    While Yoo Jinho went around gathering Hwang Dongseok party’s bags with the magic cores, Jinwoo went and picked the pocket of Hwang Dongseok .

    ‘Gotta take what’s mine . ’

    The contractual wage for today was 2 million . He was not going to let the man go to the afterlife without paying him . In Hwang Dongseok’s wallet, he found just a little over 2 million won . He recalled Hwang Dongseok saying he would be paid in cash, right after the Raid; it seemed the man was not lying . After all, you couldn’t cut off the tail every time . If nothing unusual like the appearance of mana crystals had occurred, they would’ve probably finished the Raid with no trouble .

    “Thank you for today’s wages . ”

    Jinwoo thanked no one in particular, then got up and left . Yoo Jinho, who had gone to place the Hunters’ magic cores in his bag, panicked when he saw Jinwoo missing after coming back .

    “Hyungnim?”

    Only the corpses of Jinwoo’s victims were scattered about .

    “Aaaaahhhhhh!”

    Turning blue, Yoo Jinho frantically chased after Jinwoo .

    At the scene of the incident, the Association’s investigators and staff had arrived . The protocol in the case of a death during a Raid was simple . They would have to report the incident to the Association and undergo a brief investigation . The investigator this time was a strict-looking middle-aged woman .

    “Your names?”

    “Sung Jinwoo . ”

    “I’m Yoo Jinho . ”

    A Hunter’s death in a Dungeon was unfortunately a common occurrence, so the aftermath investigations were more or less routine . It was just a matter of keeping proper record of everything that had happened . It would all go smooth… as long as nothing suspicious was noted .

    “…Hmm, you’re telling me all the C-rank Hunters died, but you two, a D-rank and an E-rank, got out safely?”

    The investigator pushed her glasses up and asked, her eyes narrow .

    ‘In a normal Raid, the first to die are the weak ones…’

    As she carefully looked over the survivors, something caught her eye, and she spoke with a raised voice,

    “Oh my!”

    She approached Yoo Jinho with sparkles in her eyes .

    “Isn’t this one of Maya Company’s new products? The long sword, Kallion? And oh my, this is one of master artisan Gredos’ works, the Royal Series Shields!” [2]

    Yoo Jinho put on a proud expression .

    “You know your stuff!”

    “Hohoho, oh no . I just love looking through new product catalogues . ”

    The longsword’s price was 700 million, and the shield was 500 million . Produced from magic cores worth hundreds of million won and other expensive materials, these were powerful equipment that could raise the level of a D-rank Hunter to C-rank . A theory of what happened in the Dungeon was created in her head .

    ‘If it was with these gear…’

    A D-ranker just might’ve been able to defeat the boss in a situation where all the C-rankers had died .

    ‘The E-ranker probably survived by hiding away in some corner . ’

    Of course, the truth was completely opposite . Still, she had made her conclusion . Someone who could afford such gear would not have betrayed his comrades for few paltry pieces of magic cores . There was also no way that the E-ranker could do anything against the C-rankers . As such, Hwang Dongseok and co . ’s deaths would be ruled as an unfortunate accident .

    “Well, I think that should do it . ”

    With a satisfied expression, she finished the recording of the incident .

    “The investigation is now over . You are both free to leave . I know today must’ve been hard . The Association thanks you for your cooperation in this matter . ”

    “Thank you . ”

    Jinwoo answered for the pair .

    The investigator left as quickly as she had arrived .

    “Thank you as well, hyungnim . ”

    Yoo Jinho bowed again in a 90-degree angle . Even after coming out of the Gate, his at-attention-attitude did not change . The young man probably went through a lot of scary things back there, Jinwoo thought .

    “You did well, too . ”

    “Eh, I didn’t really do anything . It was all hyungnim . Here, your magic cores . ”

    Yoo Jinho respectfully held out a bag with two hands . Jinwoo took the bag; it was filled to the brim with magic cores . The highest price for a magic core from a C-rank Gate was 10 million, even the lowest would be worth at least several million . Jinwoo tried to obtain a rough count of the magic cores he was holding and screamed inside in delight .

    ‘How much is all of this…?’

    He had to hold back the laughter of joy . Suddenly, drops of water appeared on the bag .

    drop .

    drop .

    Jinwoo raised his head . The sky that began to darken after noon was now beginning to rain .

    ‘Good thing I sent her with an umbrella . ’

    He smiled at the sudden thought of his little sister .

    Deep into the night .

    The moment he arrived home, he opened his stat screen .

    “Stat!”

    He still had the 10 stat points from the emergency quest . He was itching to use them up . It was an amount that normally required three days of daily quests (albeit missing a point) or two level-ups (but not freely distributable) .

    ‘First and foremost, agility . Then, sense . ’

    He put 7 points into agility and the remaining 3 into sense .

    His attributes had risen quite a bit . Agility had almost caught up to his strength, and in no time, his sense had reached 35 points . Once agility and strength reached the same level, he planned on focusing on constitution . Leaving aside intelligence, which he still did not know the effect of, he wanted to raise his stats evenly .

    What made him the happiest registered first: his level, which had jumped by 3 levels, and the newly earned “Bloodlust” skill . Thanks to the 10 stat points, his attributes looked great as well . Just all this would’ve made a very productive day, but this was not all that he had earned today .

    ‘On top of the wage of 2 million,’

    He opened the bag full of magic cores and started counting .

    ’11 magic cores from the spider . 38 from Hwang Dongseok’s team . ’

    All in all, he had 49 magic cores!

    At an average price of 5 million each, he would be walking away with over 200 million . [3]

    “200 million in one day…”

    Having collected ten, no, nine people’s shares all to himself, Jinwoo had earned an incredible amount . It was an unthinkable stroke of luck .

    ‘All that’s left is to sell these . ’

    It was not difficult to sell magic cores . The demand was so high that they would be snatched up the moment they were put up on the market . The question was where to sell them . He could sell them personally to another individual, to a Guild or through a business . Looking at the amount he was holding, Jinwoo concluded that instead of a personal sale or using an online market, he would go to an intermediary for brokerage .

    ‘Wonder if I can just sell these in the shop?’

    It would be rather convenient if the shop took the magic cores at face value like the junk items . Thinking about the shop, Jinwoo put away the bag . He realized the one other progress he had made today .

    ‘It said I could use the buy function of the shop now, right?’

    He quickly opened the shop . The gold that he had collected in the Instant Dungeon was sitting in his inventory, figuratively collecting dust .

    “Buy . ”

    ring~

    With that familiar electronic tone, a seemingly endless list of purchasable items appeared before his eyes . They ranged from cheap potions and miscellaneous accessories to expensive armors and powerful weapons . Every one of them was being sold for gold . Obviously, the better the item was, more expensive the gold cost . Some of the most powerful items cost as much as 10 billion pieces of gold .

    “Whoa… 10 billion…”

    His current gold was at 112 thousand . It was far too low to purchase anything that appeared to be useful, but there was no need to rush . He had plenty of time .

    ‘So as long as I gather the gold, I can buy all of this, right?’

    He hummed as he continued to browse through the list of items . He had obtained one more reason to enter an Instant Dungeon .

    Jinwoo was already anticipating the reward from tomorrow’s Random Box .

    Translator’s Notes:

    [1]: “dongsaeng” (??): Another super common Korean noun used to refer to someone makes an appearance . This one is used by older siblings to refer to their younger sibling (unlike oppa/hyung, it’s gender neutral) . Just like oppa/hyung, it’s used in general population between unrelated people as well (older person to a younger person of a relative close age) .

    [2]: “Maya Company”, “Kallion”, “Gredos” (?? ?, ???, ????): What appears to be bunch of proper nouns .

    [3]: No, not a mis translation . Technically 245 is above 200 . . .
