Chapter 020 Causal rate
The incident in which Yoo Seo-joon kicked Hwang Yi-chan in the Lizardman Dungeon was a big issue for people.
The spread video made various parodies, and because of this, there was a heated argument about who is more powerful when Awakened people stick together.
“I got the picture I wanted, but it wasn’t a very good result. isn’t it? Kim Min-cheol, head of the recruiting team.”
Pyo Chun-deuk was smiling, but Kim Min-cheol knew that that smile was never a good smile.
“I will pay more attention.”
I had no intention of making excuses or blaming. Pyo Chun-deuk was a person who would push himself even louder.
‘Hwang Yi-chan, this child. go too far I need to restrain myself a little.’
Rather, Kim Min-cheol was thinking about how to design a device that would prevent Hwang Yi-chan from leaving.
Then, Pyo Cheon-deuk opened his mouth.
“By the way, this Yoo Seo-jun guy.”
“yes.”
“I tried not to pay attention, but it’s starting to annoy me.”
“What are you going to do?”
“Shouldn’t we stop it from getting bigger? If left as it is, it will obviously be an obstacle to the association’s growth. Being cooperative with guilds has crossed the line.”
“Then let’s plan a plan.”
“Yeah, give it a try. and… This is a bit of a separate story, but isn’t it time to step down as team leader?”
“yes?”
When Kim Min-cheol, surprised by the sudden story, asked back, Pyo Chun-deuk smiled and said.
“I think it’s time to go up a bit. I was thinking of entrusting him with the site general manager. It’s also a vacancy.”
“thank you! I will do my best!”
As if creating a rivalry this time was quite a score, Pyo Cheon-deuk rewarded Kim Min-cheol with a rise in position.
“You all work hard to give. The association’s directors also approved it. The team members I recruited over the years have shown quite an activity.”
“thank you!”
“So, let’s do our best with this one.”
At Pyo Chun-deuk’s words, Kim Min-cheol instantly got goosebumps.
I forgot. What kind of person was Pyo Cheon-deuk?
The carrots he gave me were not sweet.
If the carrot was digested well, another carrot was given, but if it was not digested, the whip was whipped until it was completely vomited out.
He was such a person.
Looking at Pyo Chun-deuk’s smiling face, Kim Min-chul’s mind became complicated.
‘We have to make Yoo Seo-jun withdraw from the Hunter world.’
Perhaps that is the answer Pyo Chun-deuk wants.

A lecture room at Cheongryong University.
All the students gathered in groups of threes and threes while waiting for the professor were watching a You Tube video.
“Wow, crazy.”
“Look at your nick. It went right in.”
“I can’t see it well because it’s far away, but isn’t that corn grain?”
“As if. Anyway, that is also serious.”
“what?”
“I mean Kim Heejin.”
Heejin’s friends, who were admiring the video, looked at Kim Heejin next to them.
With her mouth wide open, she was replaying the part where Yoo Seo-joon kicked the knee.
“Hey, Heejin Kim!”
“Look at this. Seo-joon oppa beat the red flame fighter!”
“Grunt. Aren’t you too into it?”
“what. Why don’t we cheer for my lifesaver?”
“Is that why Yoo Seo-joon will look after you?”
“Who do you want to look back on?”
“Then, what do you gain from liking it so much?”
“hmm… … .”
Kim Hee-jin, who thought for a while at her friend’s question, replied with a broad smile.
“Is it the vitality of life?”
“Are you saying that you are like an idol?”
“huh. That’s right, an idol! good! I’m determined!”
“huh? What suddenly?”
Kim Hee-jin, who jumped up and shouted, caught the attention of the people in the lecture room.
Heejin revealed her aspirations as if she had nothing to do with that.
“Why does each guild have a fan club! I will make a fan club for Seojun oppa’s guild!”
At her cry, most of the students in the classroom burst into laughter.
He seemed to think that it was an absurd story.
It was the same for her friend.
“Hey, it went too far. You’re going to create a fan club for a guild that hasn’t even been created yet?”
“huh? what’s up Is there anything decided about making a fan club?”
“No, there’s no such thing, but the situation is different for guild fan clubs.”
A fan club of a corporate guild.
It was different from the celebrity fan club.
This is because it was a support concept that goes beyond the function of just gathering and cheering people who like it and helps the company’s profits.
So, the corporate guild’s fan club executives had frequent meetings with the PR team.
“That means you’re going to be the face of the guild, right? Will there be a lot of work? Stay alert! Aren’t you going to graduate?”
Despite her friend’s sincere concern, Heejin said with a confident look, as if she had no intention of giving up.
“huh! I know it’s hard. So I am confident.”
“A bachelor thesis?”
“What do you do for the test? And if you succeed, you get a job, right?”
“You said you wanted to be a journalist.”
“A professional reporter for Seo-joon’s brother’s guild!”
“You are certain.”
“Do you want to join me?”
“what?”
“Help the magpie to repay the favor. huh? Please~”
“under… … . your stubbornness is real However, I have my own job. Don’t cross that line.”
Heejin’s friend sighed and nodded.
“huh! huh! Just filling in the number of people helps a lot! I will be busy now!”

[Do you want to register all 11 cards?]
The newly drawn cards were moved to the inventory.
The cards drawn this time came out one by one from A grade and B grade, looking good.
[Class A] [Cecilius]
[Class B] [Shunnen]
Class B Schunen was a supporter who gave shields or heals, and Class A Cecilius was a soldier wearing a medieval uniform and holding a long rifle.
It seemed that the uniform I had never seen before was a person from our world.
In the case of equipment, I was able to salvage one B-class long gun. The rest were points because they were accessories of C grade or lower.
[Class B][MA 21-1]
It is a semi-automatic sniper rifle that charges mana into mana stones in the magazine and uses it as bullets.
Cecilius, who was chosen this time, seemed like a person who could use a gun, so it seemed like he could use his skills.
Clap!
When I grabbed the reloading handle and pulled it, there was a heavy metal grinding sound.
[By the way, isn’t the money saved this time not enough?]
Gilliant, who was watching from the side, asked.
After the work in the Lizardman dungeon was finished, he collected quite a bit of money when he handled the loot. However, it was still not enough to establish a guild.
“Hmm, there is a limit to selling only Awakening Stones. In addition, I have to collect cards using Awakening Stones.”
We’ve cleared many dungeons in the meantime, but each time we got only awakening stones or items.
Even though he sold the jewels he got from the goblin dungeon, it was still a bit short.
Establishing a guild cost a lot of money.
“There is one, but considering the Lizardman dungeon this time, it might not have been opened.”
There are places where you can collect money all at once.
However, looking at the Lizardman incident this time, as Gilliant said, many things had already changed at the point of turning back time.
[It’s just a hypothesis. There may be additional incidents among repeated events.]
“So you’re saying it could be?”
[I can’t confirm it and talk about it, but the possibility is always open. Causality is not an area we can control.]
“Causality.”
Consequences of causes.
Time was turned back, and Gillian and I had memories of the past.
Thanks to that, I made a different choice and it became the butterfly effect and created new incidents.
And that my choices also affect the randomness of the gates.
That was Gillian’s argument.
“By the way, what did you say was your mission then? He said he would tell me in detail.”
Gilliant said that he met us while investigating ‘the reason why gates are created’.
[The gate, as you know, is bi-directional. A lot of research has been done on our side as well. The dragons also paid a lot of attention to the gates that were created in an instant. why does this happen That was something everyone was curious about.]
“So you found out?”
[okay. One day, when I was almost getting closer to the answer, a gate opened in my nest, and you guys came over.]
“What answer were you getting close to?”
[How many beings do you think can open doors between dimensions?]
“I don’t know.”
[Are they dragon elders? They can’t keep it open for such a long time either. So it must be seen that there is no Or maybe God intervened.]
“god?”
Is it scaled up too much?
[But, probably not the gods.]
“why?”
[There is a treaty, so it will never interfere with humans. You just have to watch.]
“Then what kind of being is it?”
[devildom. The conclusion I have reached is the Demon World.]
“devildom? Does it really exist?”
[there is. There is also a demon king. The demon kings of the demon realm wanted to take over the human realm for generations. The reason is different, but.]
“Isn’t there a reason for that?”
[Yes. Saihan energy felt near the gate. You may not feel it yet, but it is the magic of the demon realm. As I said before, the configuration between dimensions is different.]
I remember.
Gillian, who taught me elemental fusion magic in the Tunnel Spider Dungeon, said this.
‘… But, be restrained in your world. Because the composition of the elements between dimensions is different, it could be in a more serious state due to the repulsive force.’
The meaning of the word was that the composition of mana was also different from world to world.
[There is a peculiarity. Your world has very little mana. Perhaps that’s why mana on our side flows naturally under the influence of the gate.]
“Are people affected by it and awakening?”
[You can see it that way.]
I understand little by little.
But, then what should I do?
[All you guys can do is close the gate like now. That’s why I decided to help by your side.]
“That your world is trying to close this gate anyway?”
[Yes. If both have the same purpose, it would make sense to cooperate. And it’s just a guess, but I think there’s a crucial clue in your world.]
“You want to find it together?”
[okay. If you find it and solve it, you will be able to solve the troublesome problem of gates.]
Come to think of it, all of these events happened as the gate opened.
And if you help me solve it, Gillian will help me with my revenge.
It was by no means a bad suggestion.
for the world? It’s not such a big reason.
I want to succeed in my revenge and live happily with my people, and Gilliant is to carry out his mission.
However, the means to solve those two different cases only ended up having to close the gate.
“Then it seems that the next dungeon has been decided.”
I’ll have to find out if it’s open there as I remembered, but if the next dungeon is open as it is, a pretty salty reward will be waiting for me.
[What kind of dungeon is it that the rewards are so salty?]
“Do you know what a luminescent mole is?”
[Underlight? Could it be that their dungeons are also open?]
“Do you guys call me Underlight?”
luminescent mole.
These moles emit fluorescent substances that glow from their bodies. Despite their fairly large bodies, these moles are monsters that move quietly underground.
And they had a habit of collecting and storing sparkling jewels deep in the ground.
[Do you know what happens if you touch them wrong?]
“You know. Why is the name glowing?”
‘Gwang’ is a Chinese word.
‘light light’ and ‘crazy light’.
He clearly remembers what happens when glowing moles go crazy.
It was an incident in which the hunter who first discovered the dungeon before returning stole it after being blinded by jewels and ran away.
Instead, if I could prevent such an incident and take the jewel this time, I could shorten the time it took to establish the guild.
Because so many gems have been found.

“Is there a gate in a mountain like this?”
“Yeah, we’re almost there. Just try harder.”
After finishing our preparations to attack the Luminous Mole Dungeon, we were currently climbing Mt. Gwanak.
I wondered what to do if the gate didn’t appear, but fortunately it was created as a result of checking in advance.
Besides, since it was deep in the mountains where there were few people, no one knew about the existence of this dungeon yet.
“Isn’t there anyone else guarding here?”
“Because it’s still unknown.”
“How did you know?”
“I bought information on the black market.”
That’s how I got around to the kids.
There was a good reason why this dungeon was discovered late. Although it is a mountain in the city, it is located deep in the mountain where people are rare.
And, of course, the monsters in the gate were moles. Unlike other monsters who came out and ran wild, these guys had no intention of coming out of the tunnel.
“Let’s go in.”
After passing through the gate and entering, a tunnel large enough for an adult man to walk with his back straight appeared.
