“Are you saying you’ll go to the military with Mr. Rood?! Are you out of your mind?!”
“Ouch! Aunt!! It hurts!”
Inside the guild leader’s office, a sharp sound echoed. Kang Ihhyun, touching his back and making a crying face, grimaced as Kang Sujin, with her reddened hand hanging in the air, frowned.
“Quiet down! Do you have any sense or not? You’re currently the 2nd in South Korea, and if you fall, it’s like giving a higher-level gate to Baek Jangmi. Didn’t you already hand over several gates to Baek Jangmi last week because of the corrosion type gate?”
“W-Well, that’s true! But, aah, aunt!!”
When Kang Sujin took out a massager from under the desk and began massaging her shoulders, Kang Ihhyun quickly ran back, still touching his back.
Seeing Kang Sujin, who seemed to have lost her reason due to anger, Kang Ihhyun’s “Master of Social Life” skill quickly activated.
“A-A-Aunt! But it’s the Guild! It’s the Guild! You know, is it really okay to send Mr. Rood alone to the lair of those skillful monster thingies?! Yes?! Didn’t Aunt Jangmi give any advice during the regular meeting?!”
Twitching, Kang Sujin’s arm paused briefly at the last words. Kang Sujin, who had been rolling her eyes, lowered her arm and rested her chin on her hand.
“Come to think of it…”
Kang Sujin recalled the scene during the meeting. The blame was on the card’s name that Baek Jangmi casually mentioned.
‘Reverse Isolation.’
Reverse Isolation. Among tarot cards, it was a card that “reveals secrets.” Like Kang Sujin, Baek Jangmi never spoke lightly.
“Sending Rood to the military alone is certainly not an option….”
Strong but inexperienced in controlling my feelings or hiding my thoughts. To go to the Northern region and reveal even Rood’s secrets unknown to Kang Sujin, it seemed like everything would be exposed to the guild.
Kang Sujin looked at her niece in front of her. She resembled her grandfather, whom I despise so much, and was a quick-witted child, even if just by a little.
“Ihyun.”
“Yes.”
Sujin looked at Ihyun with serious eyes. When Ihyun nodded, she brushed off her clothes and stood up. Kang Sujin sighed deeply and spoke.
“For you too, let’s reduce the deadline to four days. In return, never let Rood be completely exposed to those Guild bastards, understand?”
“Yes!”
With a stern expression, Kang Sujin sat back in her chair. With her fists clenched, she spoke to Kang Ihhyun.
“Show that the Holy Land isn’t a walk in the park. Show it to Rood and also to the Guild.”
With a slight bow and a salute, Kang Ihhyun left the guild leader’s office.
“…Ah, well. It’s like jumping from one mountain to another; please don’t say such things.”
Still, with a sensitive expression to my approval, Kang Ihhyun casually swept up his bangs and took out his mobile phone.
On the other side of the phone, there was a promotional video for the guild “Gunsin.” A reliable public enterprise managing the Northern region of South Korea.
When a silver-haired man, as if passing by, appeared at the beginning of the promotional video, Kang Ihhyun paused the video.
“If it’s S-rank, there’s only one person…”
Ranked 6th in the domestic rankings, affiliated with the guild ‘Gunsin,’ S-rank Jung Sooho. The leader of the archer class.
Also known as “Blue Bullet,” his nickname is “Northern Air Defense of South Korea.”
And the most famous nickname is “Berserker.”
Although he often faced ridicule for having the lowest rank among the six S-ranks in the country, the reality was different.
Because ranking did not necessarily indicate combat power.
The essence of the Gates was not the “subjugation” but the “rescue” of people, so the ranking was more like a measure of “versatility” rather than just combat power.
The commonality among the S-ranks who occupied the top 3 spots in South Korea was that they were all “hunters who could subjugate Gates without causing significant harm to people.”
Killing and destroying were simple, but saving and maintaining were challenging tasks.
Ranked 1st, “Black Fantasy” Rood was an all-rounder who could perfectly handle almost any situation with his refined illusion magic skills, overwhelming mental power that could materialize it, and various other abilities, making him indisputably the best.
Ranked 2nd, Kang Ihhyun could simultaneously use the skills of an inspector and a healer and also wield the powers of several archangels.
Therefore, it was possible for him to engage in battle alone and simultaneously recover people.
Perhaps Min Jae-yoon, too, could have risen to 3rd place in the rankings thanks to the diversity of the demons he commands, the 72nd in his control.
Even without combat training, just by enduring within the school, which was being eroded, until the rescue team arrived without any casualties, he was considered one of the top five talented individuals in the country.
But Jung Soo-ho didn’t have such a thing. Jung Soo-ho had only one thing: ‘overwhelming power and combat command.’
And… receiving the title of 6th place in the country solely with that, it meant that he allowed no imitation in terms of power.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
