Solo Leveling: Ragnarok – 59



Episode 59

At that time Ver suddenly peeked out from Suho’s shadow and spoke to him and the hunters clicked their tongues at the same time and turned their heads away from Suho.

“Oh what. “Were you a summoner?”

“He was a summoner.”

“He was a summoner.”

“…?”

Suho suddenly felt like he had been dumped without even confessing.

Unaware of Suho’s speed Berg flew over and patted Suho on the shoulder.

[it’s okay. Isn’t there me for the Solord?]

“It’s because of you man.”

Now in addition to summoning Suho has many other combat skills.

However because of Ver’s appearance the first impression was that he was a summoner and the favorability of other hunters dropped to the bottom.

No matter how much I became a C-level hunter summoning spellcasters were still a fringe thing.

Suho sighed softly and looked back at the other hunters.

Hunters who completely ignore Suho’s gaze.

‘Seeing as it’s a face I’ve never seen before it looks like he’s a rookie but he’s a summoner?’

‘The summoned beast also looks terribly weak.’

‘If there’s a summoner in the party for no reason don’t you think they’ll just take the money and not even feed one person?’

They did their best to avoid making eye contact with Suho fearing that they might ask him to join the party.

In addition to Suho there were many people who were ignored by other hunters.

Most of them were newcomers with unproven experience or were well-known in the hunter industry for not being able to do their job due to poor skills.

The members of the Baekho guild who were watching as they were the only ones standing awkwardly and unable to join the party glanced at Baekmiho and asked.

“Vice President what should we do with them?”

It was a truly difficult situation.

Naturally I was concerned about backlash as I tried to forcefully include those marginalized hunters here and there.

Since conquering a dungeon is a life-threatening task you can’t force a hunter you don’t like to accept you as a colleague.

“hmm.”

Baek Mi-ho thought for a moment and then opened her mouth.

“I’ll let the rest of us plan a party.”

“yes? That’s too dangerous…”

“Instead I will include three B-class hunters in that party.”

“ah! That will work. Anyway we just have to keep it until the villain is caught….”

The Baekho guild members nodded at Baekmiho’s decision.

The White Tiger Guild’s gathering of C-class freelancers was not simply for the purpose of protection.

The current situation of not knowing when and where an A-class villain would appear was extremely dangerous not only for hunters but also for citizens.

Isn’t this even in the middle of busy Seoul?

‘If the villain is hunting hunters anyway the most efficient way is to stick close to the prey and wait.’

In fact the C-class hunters gathered here were also convinced that they were becoming bait.

However it was safer to become a protected bait in a situation where one might be attacked at any time.

furthermore….

“It would be better if a villain appeared on our side.”

“what? “Are you crazy?”

“why? “If you have this much power you can just run away if he shows up anyway and you can get compensation just by informing the association of the villain’s location.”

“You… have never met a Class A hunter before right? Do you think it would be possible for a C-class like us to safely escape from an A-class?”

“No but if there are two B-class hunters….”

“They say it’s best not to meet at all.”

The hunters who had formed a party with people they each knew were talking and making noise.

Meanwhile following the guidance of the Baekho Guild members Suho gathered together the alienated hunters who were unable to form a team until the end.

[Hehehehe! I can’t believe our small lord would be treated this humiliatingly. Little people are so angry!]

“No it’s because of you.”

If you look closely Ber gives you medicine in a very loyal tone.

However regardless of that Suho decided to obediently receive the protection of the White Tiger Guild.

‘I was curious about the level of other hunters but it’s good.’

Looking back it had only been less than a month since Suho awakened.

However in that short period of time so many things happened and I even came across traces of two dead monarchs.

Rakan the Fang Lord the king of beasts.

Tarnak the king of the elements and the lord of Gangche.

It was clear that the path he was walking was different from that of other ordinary hunters.

So I was more curious.

How different is the person you are now from other hunters?

Suho’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the other hunters.

The White Tiger Guild kindly opened the dungeons that the guild had reserved in advance to C-class hunters.

Since the Baekho guild members were also attacking together they would receive a share of the profits but it would still be a fairly large loss.

‘The White Tiger Guild is not famous for nothing. It’s truly noblesse oblige.’

Suho was impressed by the consideration of the Baekho Guild and moved to that dungeon with his temporarily formed party members.

The problem was that the party members were truly non-mainstream.

[Only clumsy people have gathered here.]

Ber’s assessment was cold.

There are a total of 10 party members.

It consisted of three B-level hunters from the White Tiger Guild and seven C-level hunters including Suho.

However five of them were rookies who had just awakened like Suho and the remaining two experienced hunters were summoners.

The more summoners there were in the party the worse the raid group would receive.

This meant that the number of people actually participating in the battle was reduced accordingly.

“…is this raid really okay?”

To put it mildly even the members of the White Tiger Guild who protected them were muttering words of concern so they said it all.

But there was another problem.

Isn’t there another condition that hunters avoid when gathering party members?

Just personality.

How can you know someone’s personality just by looking at their face for the first time?

It’s simple.

Most of the newbies who have just awakened this time have bad personalities.

One day they suddenly awakened to superhuman strength and the price for that strength was nothing but winning the lottery.

In fact by using that power you will be able to make a huge amount of money in the future so isn’t it truly a lottery?

At that exact moment the hunters develop the guts of a novice.

To put it simply bluff and go.

“Really. “Why do I have to be treated like this!”

While moving to the dungeon provided by the Baekho Guild rookie hunter Dongjae Dong suddenly expressed his dissatisfaction with a grumpy expression.

He was the largest hunter out of the 10 and was even bigger than the B-class White Tiger guild members.

At first glance it’s a powerful tank.

Dong-jae Dong-jae was a newly awakened person who had only been awakened for a week and was at the height of his confidence in his sudden superhuman strength.

And in fact his abilities deserved high praise if supported by his experience.

Once you gain experience in a few dungeons you can eventually get scouted by a good guild.

‘But the problem is that this time is the most explosive.’

A kid so intoxicated with his own power that he doesn’t know how scary the world is.

As soon as the Baekho Guild members saw Dongjae Dongjae they defined him that way.

“hey. Aside from the Baekho brothers it looks like I’m the strongest so I’ll be the attack leader. “Are you okay?”

“yes? “Who wants it?”

When Dong-jae Dong-jae suddenly released a fishing net the hunters were naturally embarrassed.

“Gu Dong-jae I heard it’s only been a week since you awakened? “But what do you know about being the party leader?”

“Isn’t that the same for you? “Anyway there are only beginners who have been here for less than a month so wouldn’t it be safer for the strongest person to take over as leader?”

“Still it’s better for the Baekho Guild members than for us…”

“Didn’t you hear that the Baekho brothers didn’t care about running the party from the beginning?”

“Are you letting go of your words? “How old are you?”

“what. whatever.”

hook.

As the big Dong-jae Dong-jae took a step forward the hunter who was arguing with him had no choice but to hesitate.

As I got closer the intimidating feeling I felt from him was no joke.

Those muscles all over my body were not created at the gym.

Maybe that lumpy size itself is his skill?

Meanwhile Ver tilted his head from Suho’s shoulder who was just watching their scuffle from a distance.

[Solord shouldn’t the strongest ones just be the leaders?]

What Ver was pointing at were members of the White Tiger Guild.

Suho shrugged his shoulders and answered.

“Then it looks a little bad.”

[What does it look like?]

In fact regardless of experience or level it was natural for the White Tiger guild members to lead the raid in this situation.

But what if the White Tiger Guild calls in a bunch of freelance hunters saying it’s an emergency and suddenly takes over as leader?

“It would literally become the tyranny of a large guild. Because it would be like bringing together freelancers by force. furthermore….”

Suho glanced at the Baekho guild members.

From earlier their attention had been focused solely on detecting signs from the outside.

In a situation where an A-level villain might suddenly appear at any moment it was a truly useless waste of energy to worry about the C-level members bickering among themselves about who would be the leader.

At that time Gu Dong-jae looked at Su-ho with a disapproving expression probably because the sound of the conversation between Su-ho and Ber was annoying.

“why? Would you like to become a leader too?”

“Oh no. “We are summoners so we are a little out of position as leaders…”

It was not Suho who quickly responded and took a step back but the other summoners.

Ironically the two summoners excluding Suho were senior hunters with over a year of experience.

But that made them even more aware of their position.

There are two types of raid leaders.

A type of assault leader who leads the attack team from the front.

Or on the contrary a balance type leader who controls the stamina of the entire party from behind.

The latter was of course a position available only to healers.

And both summoners were impossible.

As the summoners took a step back without a word Gu Dong-jae looked satisfied.

‘Good.’ The flow was completely in my direction.’

The attack leader has priority in profit distribution.

The distribution ratio is a bit high but more than anything if you acquire a good item in a dungeon the raid leader will have priority.

Moreover once you have experience as a raid leader your chances of becoming a raid leader increase throughout your future career as a hunter.

‘But what is that guy?’

Gu Dong-jae’s eyes widened grimly when he saw the summoner who among the three summoners was still standing there.

It’s Suho.

He was chatting with Ver not paying any attention to Dong-jae Dong-jae.

Stride.

Gu Dong-jae’s shadow was cast in front of Su-ho.

“why? Are you also interested in a leadership position?”

“no. I’m not interested. If you want to do it do it.”

“haha. yes?”

Dong-jae Dong-jae’s expression widened at Su-ho’s answer.

He laughed slapping Suho’s back with a palm the size of a pot lid.

“I heard you just recently awakened like me? But since I am a summoner I must be very heartbroken. Don’t worry. “Just trust me and follow my lead…”

At that moment Dong-jae Dong-jae’s expression changed subtly.

And then he looked at his numb palms.

Something was strange.

When you pat someone on the back the response is usually ‘Eon!’ It was bound to bounce forward.

But Suho was different.

No matter how lightly he was hit Suho’s slender(?) body was able to withstand his strength without being pushed back even an inch.

It even felt like hitting a big hard tree…

“step.”

It was then.

What Suho added was:

“I will fight separately.”

“what?”
