    thud.

    “Now these are all the documents needed to create a guild.”

    “…There are a lot.”

    Suho laughed as he looked at the pile of documents in front of him.

    As if he had anticipated Suho’s reaction Jinho Yoo grinned and picked up the topmost stack of documents and explained.

    “There are bound to be a lot of documents. “The guild you will establish is already a large guild from the start.”

    “Is it because of the Scavenger Guild?”

    “okay. The Scavenger Guild has already started selling ‘Echo Forest Spring Water’ in earnest. And half of the profits will be used as your guild’s income. “But is there any way that there are not enough documents?”

    Suho nodded at Yoo Jin-ho’s words.

    ‘Item: Spring Water of Echo Forest’

    The effectiveness of the detox potion obtained from the ice elves in the glacier dungeon was proven through several verifications by the Scavenger Guild.

    From Suho’s perspective he had already seen the item information so he knew the effect very well.

    In order to sell to other hunters for money such a verification process was necessary even if it was somewhat cumbersome.

    As soon as the value of the detox potion was confirmed the Scavenger Guild began the detox potion business in earnest.

    The public’s reaction has already been enthusiastic.

    Actually it was natural.

    When hunting magical beasts that use poison a hunter with detoxification skills was essential.

    But not everyone had such a hunter as a colleague.

    In such a situation even though it was inconvenient I had to go into battle wearing a gas mask.

    Otherwise I had no choice but to go to the association’s healer after the battle and receive detoxification.

    But now with just the detox potion the paradigm until now would be completely different.

    And due to the contract with Scavenger Suho was to receive half of the proceeds from future sales of Echo Forest spring water.

    However in principle such large-scale contracts are only transacted between guilds.

    “In other words Seong Su-ho’s guild will become a close partner with a large American guild as soon as it is established. And since Ajin Soft has to coordinate and supervise that relationship a three-party contract is also required…”

    “yes. So where should I start signing?”

    Since it was something he was familiar with Suho picked up a pen while listening to the lawyer’s explanation.

    Still thanks to Yoo Jin-ho all the complex contracts and document procedures were resolved so the guild could be founded by simply signing the numerous documents.

    Yoo Jin-ho who had been watching Suho eagerly sign his name suddenly looked at Suho with very serious eyes.

    “Rather than that… there is probably one most important thing left to do as a guild leader.”

    “What is that?”

    Suho’s eyes also became serious at that expression.

    My uncle Yoo Jin-ho was the closest colleague to my father who had his memories of his past life returned intact.

    What does he think is most important?

    Jinho Yoo asked seriously.

    “Have you decided on a guild name?”

    “ah.”

    What else can I say?

    Suho shrugged his shoulders in response.

    It was a topic I had never thought about because I was so busy.

    But anyway in order to complete these thick documents the guild name had to be written at the top.

    “hmm. “We just call it a solo guild.”

    “Now wait!”

    “…?”

    Suho was taken aback by Jinho Yoo’s sudden greatly embarrassed reaction.

    Yoo Jin-ho’s expression was very complex.

    Yoo Jin-ho didn’t know what kind of expression to make right now whether he should cry or laugh.

    ‘…Really. ‘I wonder if someone is my brother’s son.’

    It was Yoo Jin-ho who recalled a nostalgic memory that now remains only as a memory.

    In the past didn’t Seong Jin-woo also try to roughly name his guild “Solople Guild”?

    “why? “Is it strange?”

    Yu Jin-ho asked Su-ho’s question back.

    “…Why do you want to use that name?”

    “There’s no particular reason I just like moving alone. “I have no intention of recruiting more guild members in the future.”

    “That’s true but strictly speaking you’re not fighting alone. “There are also shadow soldiers.”

    “hmm.”

    “More than anything it’s so tacky! “Later as the guild name becomes more known it will be exposed in many places!”

    After hearing it I saw it.

    Su-ho nodded to Yu Jin-ho’s logical and desperate persuasion.

    It made sense.

    It was a guild that I might end up being with for the rest of my life.

    It was right for the guild name to have a meaning that could express oneself well.

    ‘That’s why I chose ‘Solo’… but it’s useless if you don’t understand its meaning.’

    It’s a word that can express me.

    Suho asked again.

    “Then how about ‘Woojin Guild’?”

    “Woojin?”

    Yoo Jin-ho’s eyes widened slightly as he reflected on the tone.

    “Is that your father’s name backwards?”

    “Yes that’s true but it also has another meaning.”

    “What do you mean?”

    “Jin (進) moving forward in the universe (宇宙).”

    Suho reflected on his purpose.

    What you need to do in the future.

    What I want to do.

    And for that purpose the name I want to give to the guild that will grow together.

    “The two together are Ujin (宇進) which means ‘advancing into space.’”

    “….”

    Yoo Jin-ho couldn’t say anything in response to Su-ho’s subsequent answer.

    “I will definitely go to the universe where my father is.”

    …That’s how the Woojin Guild was created.

    * * *

    After forming a guild Suho began to attack the dungeon in earnest.

    When I became a guild leader there was a big difference between when there was no guild and when there was a guild.

    Surprisingly the fact that the guild leader was a C-rank hunter was not very important.

    Such factors are only needed when recruiting guild members anyway but in the end what is needed to dominate the dungeon to be conquered is ‘money’.

    And Suho now had a lot of money.

    “1 billion.”

    “…!”

    “First of all please focus on the highest grade dungeons with 1 billion won bro.”

    “Oh okay. no! “I understand guild leader!”

    Lim Do-gyun who came out of the shadow dungeon for the first time in a long time could not get used to the sight of Su-ho suddenly becoming rich.

    But if making money is difficult why is spending it so difficult?

    “And since the money coming in from scavengers next month will be much more than this month we take that into consideration and make reservations in advance.”

    “yes!”

    Lim Do-gyun answers energetically.

    Suho noticed that his movements were very different from before.

    ‘fast.’

    And that change became clear when I took Lim Do-gyun into the dungeon.

    “Ugh! “Why did you bring me here!”

    Lim Do-gyun’s role is a porter.

    It was a task for Suho to run between shadow soldiers and hunted demonic beasts to collect magic stones.

    In fact it didn’t matter if you did this after the dungeon raid was completed.

    Otherwise you could have left it to the shadow soldiers without having to order Lim Do-gyun to do it.

    However there was a reason why I brought Do-gyun Lim in person this time.

    “…oh. “He’s really good at running away.”

    Suho was impressed.

    Ammut just told Lim Do-gyun to run all the time.

    As a result Lim Do-gyun’s lower body was trained to the limit and he was still able to run away from mid-level magic beasts that were attacking him.

    ‘Magic power is still at level E but the strength itself has increased significantly. At this level… wouldn’t I be able to deal with a D-class magical beast or higher alone without difficulty?’

    Of course faster running did not mean increased attack power.

    But what if we put a good weapon in Lim Do-gyun’s hands?

    ‘For example a bow.’

    Of course a hunter’s bow uses magic arrows as standard.

    Therefore no matter how good the bow was if it was in the hands of an E-class hunter its attack power was bound to be very poor.

    Can you even fire one shot properly in the first place?

    ‘But what if it’s not a magical arrow?’

    “Dogyun listen to this.”

    “huh? “No yes?”

    Lim Do-gyun who was holding the bow given by Su-ho in his hand made a puzzled expression.

    “Guild leader why is this? “I don’t have enough magic power to use a weapon like this…”

    “I know so let’s just aim for a demonstration first.”

    “…?”

    Although Lim Do-gyun did not understand he obediently followed Su-ho’s words.

    Joowoouk-

    The moment he pulls the bowstring.

    “Mino Transmogrification.”

    “…?!”

    Shwaaaagh!

    Lim Do-gyun could not help but be shocked.

    Suddenly the shadow minotaur that was fighting with Suho ran towards him and turned into a single black arrow.

    [Mino Lv.1]

    Transmogrification – Arrow

    “Hee hee hee…”

    [Mmmuuuu!]

    “What is this? scared.”

    Lim Do-gyun suddenly looked at Su-ho with his hands shaking as he saw a black shadow arrow flickering ominously on his bow.

    “Suho? No guild leader? “This… what happens if I shoot it?”

    “What happens? “It will fly forward right?”

    “I guess so….”

    “Now take a shot.”

    “….”

    At Su-ho’s urging Lim Do-gyun closed his eyes tightly and pointed the shadow arrowhead towards those scary-looking beasts.

    and.

    Tuk.

    The moment you let go.

    [Mmmuuuu-]

    Kuwaaaaaaa!

    “Hey?!”

    The black ray of light left his hand and passed through a large hole in the body of the gigantic beast like a cannonball.

    Lim Do-gyun’s expression as he stared blankly at that scene was a sight to behold.

    “What on earth is this….”

    “What is it?”

    Suho smiled and answered.

    “From now on my brother is also a full-fledged combatant of the Woojin guild.”

    “…Guild leader.”

    At those words Lim Do-gyun’s eyes as he looked at Su-ho quietly twinkled.

    E-class hunter.

    The weakest hunter who deserves to be a miner rather than a fighter.

    That was who he was.

    ‘…I am weak.’

    no.

    It was always weak.

    Therefore…

    ‘I always just ran away.’

    From scary demons.

    And from his mother who tried to kill him by turning into Mist Burn.

    and.

    ‘Even from the father who killed his mother.’

    mother.

    Still when Lim Do-gyun falls asleep he always dreams of ‘that day’.

    In that dream there was always a father who casually killed the demonic beast that was his mother.

    I saw my father like that before my eyes.

    -Ugh!

    -Do Do-gyun…!

    …I was so scared that I turned my back on my father and ran away.

    So forever until the dream ends.

    Lim Do-gyun ran and ran endlessly.

    To run away from my father.

    maybe….

    It must have been from then on.

    ‘My life was always about running away.’

    Did you gain running skills after awakening?

    That was probably a natural result and a natural reason.

    ‘Because I am weak.’

    Even if awakened it is only E grade.

    Because he is still not as strong as his father who is an S-class hunter.

    however.

    Right now Lim Do-gyun was looking down at his own two hands that had killed an extremely strong magical beast in one fell swoop.

    My hands were shaking with belated excitement.

    Of course I had no intention of being mistaken.

    This power was not his own.

    It was just a manifestation of the ability that Seong Su-ho had temporarily lent to him.

    But why?

    Just from this one experience I felt like I had gained courage that I had never had before.

    “…Suho.”

    Lim Do-gyun looked at Su-ho with serious eyes.

    And he revealed an important secret that he had been hiding until now.

    “My father is actually….”

    “Ah you are Lim Tae-gyu leader of the Reaper Guild? “I know.”

    “Imtae… what? How did you do that?!”

    Suho looked at Lim Do-gyun in astonishment dumbfounded.

    “What should I do? Even though we look alike we are so similar. “If you don’t know that you have to return your certificate of acceptance to Korea University’s College of Fine Arts.”

    “….”

    “Anyway it looks like you’ve gained some courage now that you’re finally saying it?”

    “what?”

    chin.

    Suho placed his hand on Lim Do-gyun’s shoulder who looked puzzled.

    And he smiled meaningfully his eyes shining.

    “So now can you please contact your father directly?”

    “What contact?”

    “I’ve been getting calls these days asking me to return the weapons they lent me. Haha.”

    “…huh?”

    A class A weapon that Lim Tae-gyu lent to Su-ho before going to the Glacier Dungeon.

    The ‘Reaper’s Bow (replica)’ is no longer there because the ice elf Sirka took it with her when she left with her mother.

    Even if Suho became rich overnight it was only 1 billion won.

    No matter how much Echo Forest’s spring water is selling like hot cakes it’s only been a few days since sales began.

    So there was no money yet to pay for those expensive Class A weapons.

    “So take this opportunity to make peace with your father. “If possible could you please hand over some advanced dungeons to me?”

    “….”

    The emotion on Lim Do-gyun’s face quickly cooled as he looked at Su-ho’s ever brighter smile.

    * * *

    And that time.

    “…Chacha!”

    Sirka was urgently calling out to Cha Hae-in aiming the Reaper’s bow (replica) at the sky.

    Wow!

    At those words Cha Hae-in also looked ahead with a heavy expression.

    “That can’t be….”

    Gray blizzard.

    A huge shadow loomed beyond it.
