Chapter 137
『 Gate danger zones exist in South America, Australia, and North Korea — three locations in total. A large number of gates regen in these areas, and in the story, they’re called [Unlicensed Gates]…
…
No need to think too hard. Just think of them as “hunting grounds.” Kill monsters, level up, gather mana stones, and aim for items. The must-go gates here are…… 』

LV1─ Unknown
A bullet shot like lightning pierces the temple of a kobold and the kobold collapses while spurting blood as Yu Rira brushes past.

Her pupils busily scanned the surroundings.
[Watch the flanks! Watch the flanks!]
The field was a dungeon, ash-colored towers.
The concept was like a ruined city.
W e̊ bṅ о̄vѐ l Е̄ nŭ m̃å.
Monsters were……
[Kobolds!!]
At the street corner, Yu Rira kicked off the ground and pulled the trigger.
A kobold passing by fell before it could even react.

The one beside it screamed at its companion’s death, but it too was soon struck down.
Meanwhile, the last remaining one was bolting away.
Ěn ŭm а .і d̃
It was not unusual since kobolds are infamous for cowardice.
Yu Rira chased after it.
At that moment—
[Kieeek!!]
From all around the ruins, kobolds sprang up, howling.
They were only level 1, so their intelligence and attack power were very low.

But even bugs squirm when stepped on, and before she knew it, they had formed a deadly encirclement.
It was a surprisingly high-level strategy for mere level 1s but they picked the wrong opponent.
Strategy only works when the power gap isn’t too wide. Here, the fight wasn’t even in the same weight class.
[Yes! They’re all grouped up!]
Yu Rira’s eyes curved into a smile and sparks soon flickered.
Lightning flashed underfoot and with every step she took, arcs of electricity shot out.
Wе̃ b̀.n̂ о̂v̊ e l Еn̄ü mӓ
Time around her seemed to slow and in that instant, she vanished into a streak of lightning.
Papak!!

[Kweeehh??]
The flashing bolt left kobolds helpless.
All they could do was scream foolishly but the lightning was far away already.
Sliding across the floor, Yu Rira turned her body and locked eyes on the kobolds.
Е̄ n ǔ mа .і ḋ
-Pashik!
At once, the kobold pack spurted blood and collapsed.
“Phew… this time I barely managed not to fall.”
It was a skill taught by her rep oppa, but still too heavy to use freely.

She drank a potion and watched the kobold corpses dissolve into mana.
Amid the drifting lights, something remained.
Еn̆üm̂â
In gates managed by the Bureau, only mana stones drop but [Unlicensed Gates] drop other things like materials and items.
“Ugh.”
Not that the items were anything glamorous.
Leftover remains of bodies, or tools they used.
Yu Rira decided not to pick them up yet.
She could collect them all after clearing anyway.

She swiftly cleared the field and soon stood before the boss room.
“Looks like someone’s already fighting. Is it Su-bin…?”
The pupil’s door was open.
Well, even for warmup, having both Park Su-bin and Yu Rira come to a level 1 gate would’ve been too much.
But stepping through, Yu Rira widened her eyes at an unexpected scene.
“Huh…?”
Êňü m̂ â .і̆d̄
The one fighting the kobold warrior boss wasn’t Park Su-bin.
It was Baek Yeon-woo.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
He was wielding a longsword against the kobold warrior.
“Ho~”
Yu Rira adjusted her goggles and observed the fight.
[Height about 178 cm, weight roughly 55 kg…]
Ẃ êb̆ ǹ о̌ v̆ e̊ l̄ Е.n̄ u m a.
…No, she was observing Baek Yeon-woo.
[A skinny frame, overall sharp features. Not quite decadent…more frail, maybe destitute? That side definitely has demand.]
It’s not only men who have protective instincts.
That [I have a backstory] aura radiating from a frail, sickly boy.

‘And his face is unique, too.’
This was Yu Rira’s specialty.
Ẃ еb ń о v ё l̃ Ê n̂ ũm̄ а
Lee Shin had called him [pointy-pointy cat type], but Yu Rira quietly shook her head. This is why muggles can’t be trusted.
How is that a cat type? That’s a fox. Not an arctic fox, not a desert fox — but a Korean fox steeped in Eastern charm.
In Mir Guild, filled with round-faced handsome men, finally a different breed had arrived.
‘This is the joy of training.’
Once again, she felt glad she had followed Lee Shin.
Fangirl and earn money at the same time? Nothing better.

Yu Rira’s eyes sparkled.
“This is a rare treat.”
“Noona.”
“Mm, Su-bin? You just got here?”
“No, I came earlier, but he wanted to fight alone.”
Before she knew it, Park Su-bin was beside her, with his trademark mink coat fluttering.

“Other teams must be finishing up too, right?”
“Probably already done. Even if they’re level 2, they had more people than us.”

“Rep oppa is really… “Move move!” and next thing you know, huh? North Korea? How is this real?”
“It’s hyung.”
“Hopeless.”
Of course, it was Lee Shin.
Ёn û mа
Who would’ve imagined he’d bring a raid team to North Korea for something called a [spring camp].
In the blink of an eye, 33 people — 34 including him — had arrived here, running gates nonstop.
Meanwhile, Baek Yeon-woo’s leg gracefully kicked the kobold warrior down.
Without hesitation, he drove his sword into the kobold’s neck.

“It’s over.”
“Over.”
Е̂ n̆ ūṁ а̊
The boss dispersed into the air.
With dizziness, the world around them collapsed.
Was it because it was an [Unlicensed Gate]? It felt different from usual.
Bureau-managed gates remained even after clearing, but this one was wild.
The gate vanished immediately upon clear.
Moments later, the real-world forest emerged, and where the gate had been, mana stones and all sorts of junk were piled.

It was the spoils of their hunt.
“Mm? It has a different flavor.”
“Yeah.”
If Bureau-managed gates felt like running drills in a training field, then [Unlicensed Gates] felt like doing a live battle without protection gear.
“Should I say it feels vivid?”
“Feels like I grow faster too.”

“You saw it right? That’s why hunters run wild raids.”
“…Grandpa!”

“Captain!”
They turned, and there came Kim Jong-pil in a white robe.
He patted Park Su-bin’s shoulder, ruffled Yu Rira’s hair, then gestured to Baek Yeon-woo, standing a little away on crutches.
“Let’s go back.”

A long time ago, not long after the Korean Peninsula had been divided by ideology and thought, strange phenomena manifested across Manchuria, including North Korea.
It was a massive surge of mana rose from beneath the earth, strong enough for even ordinary people to feel on their skin.
Like rats fleeing before an earthquake, humans instinctively realized as they saw the aurora of mana rising to their waists.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
It is a disaster.
It cannot be stopped.
Ё n û mа̂ .id̃
Death is certain.
Before death, neither money nor honor mattered. Ideologies and beliefs were useless. They ran desperately for survival.
But as if mocking such human struggle— the disaster stretched its body.
With a massive earthquake, gates burst from the ground.
The number of gates created: about three million.
And as they repeatedly expanded and merged……at last, the disaster opened its eyes.

It was a crimson blood-red Level 9 Gate ‘Demon King’s Castle.’
It was the Great Disaster Monster Wave.

“……South America, Australia, this was the third great disaster.”
“Wow……I learned that in history class! They said it pushed all the way to Busan, but then they pushed it back.”

“Yes, that’s the place.”
Camp 38 is the endpoint of the northern offensive studied in history.

Now it serves as a resting place for free-hunting hunters.
Looking at the towering container box buildings, Yoo Rira kept exclaiming in wonder, “Wow, wow.”
“There are so many people?”
“It’s the holy ground of free-hunting. Not just Koreans, but many from surrounding countries come here.”
E ǹ u m ă
“Wow……”
As he said, indeed there were many people around who clearly looked of different nationalities.
White, Black…… was that Southeast Asian?
Anyway, Yoo Rira was busy looking around. Everything looked fascinating and new to her but there was one strange thing.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
She whispered softly to Mountain King.
“Grandpa. Um, is it just me? It feels like everyone is looking at us?”
Еńu ḿ а̀
“Haha, not entirely wrong.”
Kim Jong-pil chuckled.
It was true, as Yoo Rira said. Everyone was looking this way.
Especially at Park Su-bin and Baek Yeon-woo, who lagged slightly behind due to crutches, the stares were sharp enough to sting.
“You and those two behind you have what they don’t.”
“What is it?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“Talent. Genius. Innate gifts.”
In fact, there was also a very businesslike reason this place became the holy ground of free-hunting.
Since all gates managed by the bureau were assigned to the ‘League,’ guilds without affiliations or unable to participate in the League were inevitably driven into dangerous places like this.
In a way, those who roamed free-hunting hadn’t chosen their hunting grounds, they had been assigned to them.
Perhaps because of this, hunters here both admired and envied the guilds.
When Kim Jong-pil raised his head and glanced around, people quickly averted their eyes.

“Rira, you debuted in the Rift after just a few days, didn’t you?”
“Well… I don’t remember.”

“For you, that Rift was so trivial you can’t even recall it, but for most of them, it’s something they’ll never step into their entire lives.”
“Ah……”
“That’s why they say even just playing a League match means you’re above average. These people live fiercely for what you take for granted.”
“Fiercely……”
Е̄n ǔ ṁа̄
“Yes, fiercely. You and Su-bin have indeed loosened up a little lately.”
“N-no, that’s not true!”
Yoo Rira shook her head as if it were a misunderstanding, but Kim Jong-pil looked warmly at her as if he understood everything.
“There’s no need to deny it, I’m not blaming you. Arrogance without skill is a sin, but if backed by skill, it’s confidence. You deserve confidence.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
But
“Cruelly enough, talent is always relative.”
Ӗ n u m̌ а. ï d̀
None of those Yoo Rira had trampled were ever not called geniuses. Even that nameless hunter sitting on the container box sending looks of jealousy and longing must have been a genius at awakening.
No—in the sense of awakening mana, they could be called chosen.
It’s just that Yoo Rira or Park Su-bin were more, true geniuses.
And now, League 1, where Mir Guild would step in, was a stage only for “true geniuses.”
“Until now, even if you made mistakes, they weren’t obvious. Even if you failed, your teammates covered you, and at worst you thought you’d just do better next time.”
“……”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“Now, it won’t be like that.”
His tone was calm as always, but today Kim Jong-pil’s words pierced Yoo Rira deeply.
“Your opponents will also be geniuses. Just as you steal their attack timing for a counter, they can take victory from a single bullet you miss.”
And if you lose that way—
“You too could end up like those kids over there.”
“!!”
E n̄ ū_m а
The ones looking up with eyes of envy and jealousy.
Yoo Rira shuddered.

……Something about it. She couldn’t put her finger on it, but it felt unpleasant.
Kim Jong-pil knew that feeling was “pride,” but didn’t tell her and instead smiled contentedly. Now she was worth watching.
“Probably your leader brought you here because he knew that.”
“……Representative oppa did??”
Е̂n u m а . іd̃
“Your leader may look clumsy on the outside, but he has a few snakes inside. You think he didn’t notice you and the kids were loosening?”
“Ah……”
For a moment, Yoo Rira thought of Lee Shin shouting “YAHOO!!” innocently in the mountains a few days ago, tilting her head. But at Kim Jong-pil’s next words, she had no choice but to nod.
“This Spring Camp may seem sudden to you, but it’s been prepared for quite a while.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“For a while……?”
“Round 40.”
Е ñ ǔ m̊ а́ . ї d̆
“Gasp. But at that time, promotion wasn’t confirmed.”
“That’s why it was interesting—he was already acting as if it were.”
Even Kim Jong-pil had wondered then if the kid had lost his mind. He had babbled about recruitment and Spring Camp plans as if promotion were certain.
But it all happened as Lee Shin had said.
“In my view, he wants you and Su-bin to learn the fierceness they have.”
“Ah……fierceness……”

“Yes, those kids live fiercely.”
Talking like that as they walked, they eventually arrived at the dorms.
Kim Jong-pil went off on business, and Yoo Rira, waiting for the younger ones following behind, suddenly looked around.
People openly sharpening swords, someone haggling with a shopkeeper while swinging a monster’s arm, others returning from battle covered in blood.
To earn money, to grow stronger, for dreams.
They were those who slept on the battlefield, blades at their throats.
Е ń ũ m ӓ
Yoo Rira suddenly found them admirable.
‘Yes, I was complacent.’

Before, if she got beaten once, she’d get angry and kill them no matter what, but lately she laughed even if she died once or twice.
Biting her lips, Yoo Rira clenched her fist.
‘Reflect, Yoo Rira.’
Fiercely! Fiercely!! Fiercely!!

The next day Yoo Rira thought ‘Um… um… so… what is this?’
“Hey. Why do you keep messing up the line?”
“I should be asking you. Why are you holding the line like that?”

“Wait, wait, the line? Hey, are you saying the tanks messed up?”
“Honestly, not entirely wrong.”

“Ha……bunch of scrubs.”
“Hey, what did you say? Watch your mouth.”
The dealers and tanks were glaring at each other like they’d kill.
Hmm……fierceness, maybe a bit too much…….
