Meanwhile, Dominic—who had exited the dungeon alongside Blue Lagoon—tilted his head in confusion.

Today’s plan had been simple: sneak into the Blue Lagoon guild and enjoy some premium A-Rank delicacies.

Everyone was soaked in mana, and in dungeons, it wasn’t unusual for Hunters to go in and never come back.

“Pewfect humans ta gobbwe up.”

He’d already succeeded in distorting the perception of the Blue Lagoon members and infiltrating the dungeon...

But then he’d run into something insane and had no choice but to change plans.

“Veilach?”

Why was Veilach in the form of an ugly hamster... and even worse, why was he registered as a follower of that ugly teddy bear?

As Dominic puzzled over those ridiculous faces—

“Hey! You can’t just walk out like that! Are you going to keep being this uncooperative?!”

The film director, who’d been nervously waiting for the raid, stormed over in a fury. His face was as red as an octopus—clearly seething.

“You know the situation better than anyone—how can you say something like that?”

But Blue Lagoon wasn’t exactly calm either.

“What? What do you mean? We promised we’d pay exactly what was asked, didn’t we?”

“Ha—looks like your internal communication’s busted. Call someone higher up and ask Hyeonak what they want.”

Annoyed, Kim Inhan waved a hand dismissively—then looked down at the yogurt in his hand. Seeing it seemed to reignite his rage. He cursed and threw the yogurt behind him.

“Yop!”

Dominic casually [N O V E L I G H T] caught it and peeled the lid.

The guild members were still collapsed on the ground, massaging their limbs after the crushing weight of Veilach’s presence, and Kim Inhan stood beside them, furiously tapping on his phone.

What’s he up to?

Dominic licked the yogurt off the lid and glanced at the screen.

blablabla

[Title: Public Outcry) Never imagined Jjapso joined Hyeonak because of their shitty personality]

This just happened today. I’ll try to be as objective as possible.

About a month ago, we won the bid for the Thunder Zone Dungeon in Gwangmyeong.

(Photo of dungeon ownership)

Our guild isn’t as big as a major corporation—we don’t have a huge pool of members, so it took time to coordinate schedules. But when we found out the dungeon overlapped with the filming location for Zombie City 2, we rushed to assemble a team after the film company requested it.

But when we entered the dungeon, the field was already cleared. Not a single monster in sight.

And then, out of nowhere, that hotshot Hunter everyone calls “Jjapso” appeared.

When I asked why he was in another guild’s dungeon, the response was laughable.

Said he was going to clear “the dungeon of some no-name guild.”

That’s what he said, word for word.

Then he handed us a yogurt and told us to fuck off.

I was so pissed my hands were shaking.

It was humiliating. But compared to a massive guild like Hyeonak, what power do we have?

We had no options.

We tried to protest, but he didn’t listen. Then he pressured us with sheer force. One of our members was injured—diagnosed with four weeks of recovery due to the pressure—and we had no choice but to retreat.

We’re not a major guild that gets first dibs on dungeons. We have to hustle for every bid.

Until today, we’ve never had any conflict with Hyeonak. We’re not even on their radar.

And now a giant guild is stealing dungeons from small guilds like us?

Lol. Thought things were quiet lately, now here comes another “Hyeonak’d” guild. Told you that crack can't be patched.

Someone from Hyeonak explain this? Just because you're strong, you can do whatever you want?

Wait, so it was just one crafter? Y’all gave up the dungeon ‘cause of one crafter?

Daaamn y’all soft.

Don’t try to spin it.

Doesn’t matter if Hyeonak members followed later—the point is, y’all bailed.

Guildmaster Kim Inhan, sources say Blue Lagoon was camping the dungeon entrance. Is that true?

Thanks for confirming, Guildmaster Kim Inhan of “Camp Lagoon.” 😂

“Camp Lagoon” 🤣🤣🤣

Wait, why is the comment section flipping?

Oh, someone just posted the full timeline of Blue Lagoon’s little scheme lol

[Title: Timeline of the Blue Lagoon Dungeon Conflict]

Blue Lagoon wins bid for a dungeon located at the Zombie City 2 set

Realizes it's a filming site → immediately starts camping the entrance

Film company seeks peaceful negotiation; tries to settle on a fair price

Blue Lagoon suddenly demands 4x the agreed price (audio proof exists)

Film company caves and agrees to pay 4x

Blue Lagoon heads in to raid, happy as clams—then runs into Jjapso

Jjapso: (handing over yogurt) “This your dungeon? Nah, it’s mine now.”

Blue Lagoon: “Yes, sir 😭”

Blue Lagoon eats the yogurt, gets salty, and tries to rally public opinion...

Fails you are here

[Comments]

Asking for 4x the price? Y’all greedy and dumb

😂 YOGURT. Hyeonak doesn’t even insult people like normal.

Hyeonak: (offering yogurt) “So. Who’s the real villain here?”

Kinda badass actually

4x the price was scummy, but I’d be mad too if someone handed me yogurt like that lol. No guild war?

Imagine On Jurim shows up at the guild war like, “Take this yogurt and beat it.” What do you do?

Bow and say thank you, duh~~

Jurim, bro, I like strawberry.

What if he gives you peach?

Kinda over the line... but I’d learn to love peach.

[Title: If you ran from a crafter, how pathetic is Blue Lagoon really?]

Wait, four weeks of injury? 😂 Let’s re-evaluate this guild.

[Comments]

Four weeks my ass 😂 Film crew said they saw y’all getting spa massages right after

That guy wasn’t even a real crafter. His mana level broke the S-Rank scale. You think we bailed for nothing?

Mr. Kim Inhan, this ain’t it. Go take your meds.

This is giving me an aneurysm, ffs.

Hey, guildmaster—answer me honestly. Did you take the yogurt?

You bastard.

Was it good?

[Title: Why did Jjapso steal Blue Lagoon’s dungeon?]

(Photo of Guru and Woojoo at the film set)

The Hyeonak princess, Jjapso, visited the set because her friend was filming. Big Guru herself, escorting her pal.

Even shut-ins leave the house for this queen.

[Comments]

If it’s Princess Guru, I’d get “Hyeonak’d” gladly

Yeah, who the hell drops a deuce in the royal path?

I wasn’t gonna say anything, but after seeing this, Blue Lagoon was in the wrong

The Hyeonak PR team was now scrambling.

“Uh... what the hell is this?”

“Team Lead! You need to see this—right now.”

A monitoring staffer forwarded a link through the internal messenger.

“What? What’s going on?”

Team Leader Hwang Yumin checked the message on her tablet, then—

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Why now?! It’s been so quiet for so long!”

After reading the community posts about Hyeonak “Hyeonak-ing” again, she let out a full-throated scream.

“Does anyone know where Jjapso is?!”

No one answered.

The room was dead silent. Everyone just stared at each other.

“Seriously? Nobody? No one knows if he clocked in or even came into the building today?”

“Um... the Guildmaster might know where Jjapso is? Hunters Shin Nayeon and Gidan are both out right now, so there’s no one to check.”

“Is Jjapso, like... a unicorn? Is he even real?!”

Nobody had a reply.

Even within Hyeonak, Jjapso’s identity was top secret.

“I’ll go to the Guildmaster’s office myself. Prepare two versions of the official statement—one for if this is all true, one for if it’s not!”

With that order, she marched toward the guildmaster’s office.

Knock knock!

“This is Team Leader Hwang Yumin, sir.”

“Come in.”

The moment she entered, she began reporting to On Jurim.

As he scrolled through the tablet she’d brought, his brow furrowed deeper and deeper. Hwang Yumin squirmed nervously.

“I’ll look into this personally. The PR team just needs to prep for the follow-up.”

“Y-yes, sir. We’ll stay alert and ready.”

“Good work.”

As soon as she left, Jurim picked up his phone.

When the other party didn’t answer, he quickly typed out a text.

On Guru, where are you?
