Chapter 212
“Move to our guild. I will take responsibility and Tae-kyung will make you a star hunter.”
I blinked.
“star… … Hunter?”
“Yes, Star Hunter.”
Won Myung-hoon continued with a confident tone.
“Times have changed. People are crazy about Hunters and envy our abilities that they don’t have. You know Taekyung, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Do you know what the dreams of the kids around you were when you were in elementary school? bowl? astronaut. But what about these days? Children and adults are all hunters.”
wealth and honor
Most people understand the job of hunter with those two words.
They don’t want to know that even decades after Cataclysm ended, hundreds of hunters die at the gate every year.
“You have everything the public wants. Appearance, topicality, fresh character that has never been seen before.”
Won Myung-hun’s face turned red with excitement. An enthusiastic voice continued.
“But how long will that last? The masses heat up quickly and cool off much faster than that.”
“brother.”
“If you miss this opportunity, Taekyung, you won’t be a shining star. Fortunately, it’s not too late, so even now, if you’re professionally managed and appearing on TV and making your image… … “
“Wait, wait. brother:’
“uh? huh. okay.”
Won Myung-hun shut his mouth for a moment and I scratched my chin.
I didn’t expect a story like this to come out, but it’s better to make it clear now.
“You said you wouldn’t accept a recruitment offer. That’s what Chief Choi said.”
“It did. But Tae-kyung, this is a really good opportunity.”
“Uh, I’m sorry, but I have no intention of changing that guild.”
Won Myung-hoon, who was trying to say something, opened his mouth, but soon nodded.
“Yeah, at your age, you can do that. So let’s pretend that the guild transfer never happened. Instead, entertainment agencies are okay, right? It’s a common thing these days.”
“Is it an agency?”
“huh. There is one agency that I am the majority shareholder in.”
Guild double contracts are against the law, but other social activities are fine.
As he said, it was no longer strange that quite a few top hunters were listed in entertainment agencies or management.
But I answered without hesitation.
“No, I don’t even need an agency.”
“what?”
“I have enough for now.”
“… … Enough?”
“yes.”
Won Myung-hoon frowned.
“Tae Kyung. I guess you didn’t understand what my brother just said.”
“If you miss this opportunity, you can’t become a star? are you okay. It wasn’t even what I was hoping for.”
“know. I know, but think again. Even if you shoot a fixed TV program or a few big commercials, tens or even tens of billions of dollars roll in. Can’t you see my brother?”
Won Myung-hoon opened his arms wide.
From head to toe, it was decorated with luxury items whose names and prices I couldn’t even guess.
Suddenly, I remembered an article on the internet I had seen in the past.
‘Won Myung-hoon, an A-rank hunter. Purchased a building worth hundreds of billions of won in Cheongdam-dong. ‘The main character of the news article that I admired and envied is now in front of my eyes.
“Looking at the interview, I lived a pretty busy life.
“It is.”
Although it has changed a little, it is still one of the goals I want to achieve.
Won Myung-hoon grins at me who nodded his head in good faith.
“Then it’s faster to enter an entertainment agency than to engage in guild activities. You don’t have to fight monsters at a dangerous gate. You only have to work for a few hours in a cool studio.
“Oh yeah?”
“yes. You just need to get used to making comments while smiling in front of the camera.”
“Then the gate is probably better. I’m the type to use my body, so I don’t like being frustrated.”
“… … huh?”
“Also, I usually curse often. It doesn’t fit the broadcast review. If I try to draw attention, only my family suffers like now.”
“Tae, Tae Kyung.”
I continued talking as I looked at him with a clear expression of bewilderment.
“And the landlord, it can be enough without broadcasting or advertising. It will take some time.”
“What are you talking about? It’s true that A-class hunters have high income, but how expensive is the land in Gangnam?”
“Gangnam?”
“okay. Do you know what the price per square foot is now? … “I blinked blankly and let out a laugh.
“In Gangnam, you can just buy one near your house.”
”uh?”
“Even if there is only a 3-story neighborhood shopping mall, the building owner is right. I hadn’t even thought of Gangnam.”
“… … A local store?”
yes. It’s close, so it’s good to stop by, and the monthly rent will come out nicely. If mom says she’s bored with work, she’ll even set up a snack bar, well.”
“A snack bar?”
As the words continued, Won Myung-hun’s face only grew more and more distorted. Did I miss anything?
”brother?”

“Myeonghun hyung. Are you okay?”
Won Myung-hoon, who had been licking his lips, let out a trembling breath.
“Tae Kyung.”
“Yes, bro.”
“Can you, can you be satisfied with that?”
“You saw my interview, I was in F grade until a few months ago. Even if you don’t work like crazy like back then, you can make dozens of times more, so what’s the problem?”
There is no debt, and the house has been reclaimed.
people’s interest? famous? I think I have already enjoyed enough in Moorim and reality.
In particular, I realized how tiring and unpleasant it is to be in the spotlight in real life.
What kind of life will give me and my family more happiness.
“So this is enough.
As usual, Team Leader Choi showed me a lot of advertisement offers, but there are too many, so I’m going to pick out a few and focus on the guild again.”
Even if you don’t have to work in the entertainment industry, you can earn enough money.
Won Myung-hun, who had been silent for a long time after my words were finished, finally opened his mouth.
“I see. I get it.”
“You’re not offended by my refusal, are you?”
“… … No way.”
As Won Myung-hun answered in a subdued voice, the cell phone on the table vibrated. The sender, without a doubt, is Team Leader Choi.
When I checked the time, the promised 30 minutes had already passed.
“Brother, I think I should go.”
“okay? You look busy.”
“I got a call from the association asking me to re-evaluate my rating today. I got hyung’s number today, so I’ll call you back soon.”
“Then see you next time. I had a great time meeting you.”
“Next time, I will go to coin karaoke together and practice hyung’s song.”
“Coin karaoke? That’s good.”
My heart is already racing at the thought of listening to the original song live of my 18th song, ‘Chorky’. Shall we ask Jinho to join us?
“Then I will go. Don’t forget what you promised.”
I left the cafe behind Won Myung-hoon, who nodded with a blurry smile.
A black sedan parked on the side of the road rang a klaxon with a bang.
“customer. Can I clear the cup for you?”
Won Myung-hoon remained silent in response to the part-timer’s question. He looked down at the empty coffee cup and suddenly opened his mouth.
“You don’t know who I am?”
“yes?”
“Won Myung-hoon. Have you not heard?”
“I know. He also released some famous songs.”
The part-time worker laughed awkwardly and continued.
“Actually, I just did a search. He seems to be much more famous than I thought. I only saw him on TV a few times when I was young, so I can’t remember… … “
“Search.”
The smile on the part-timer’s lips slowly disappeared at the dry voice like grains of sand.
How long had it been since the part-timer, who had only been paying attention, quietly returned to the counter? Before long, Won Myung-hoon’s lips twisted at the familiar melody resonating in the store.
It is his own music released 10 years ago.
All have become relics of the past.
“Who is that bastard teasing… … “
The small voice that no one could hear was buried in the sound of music, and Won Myung-hun stood up.
His mind was full of one person.
Jin Tae-gyeong, a ephemera hunter who wandered around the F-rank gates until just a few months ago.
But now, the existence that receives attention and love from the public.
“f*ck coin karaoke… Lucky for you, the shiny bastard doesn’t even know the subject.”
Won Myung-hun sighed and put on sunglasses.
The luxurious and splendid attire caught the attention of passers-by, but no one recognized him.
“congratulations. Jin Tae-kyung.”
The president of the Bucheon Hunter Association, a gray-haired man, hands over the card with a friendly smile.
The card, about half the size of the palm of your hand, glittered silver all over.
Platinum. In other words, this card made of platinum is something everyone wants to have even in their dreams.
‘Because it means that I’ve got that much wealth and honor.’
But is it because it was expected enough?
Click, click. Puffup!
In front of the flash baptism of countless cameras, I was calm even after the president of the Hunter Association handed over my card.
‘Because it’s a peak master, it’s about an A-class hunter, well.’
Still, it feels pretty good.
As I smiled and waved at the camera, the president of the association asked me in a robot-like tone.
“Yes, Jin Tae-kyung. How are you feeling now?”
Of course not.
I was just about to answer.
belt ring.
– Achievements,
[You have achieved A-class hunt.
– Achievement achievement rewards are given.
– Level up!
– You earned 20 bonus points!
– Reputation is greatly increased!
“Ome. Sibal.”
“……!”
“……!”
“… … ah.”
right. There was a camera here.
The chairman of the association, who has hardened with a puzzled face, and the people at the broadcasting station who doubt their ears. And I thought as I saw Team Leader Choi lowering his head with the expression that the wise time had arrived.
‘It’s f*cked up.’
This is the greatest broadcast accident ever.
I whispered to the president of the association, feeling my throat burning.
“Is this edited? You must do it.”
“edit? Jin Tae-kyung, are you sane?”
The president of the association muttered in a heavy, subdued voice. It’s an expression that makes me want to grab my collar right now.
“Editing sucks. this is a live broadcast what is that iTube live streaming.”
“yes?”
“Can’t you see the monitor in front? More than 50,000 people are watching it right now.”
“……”
damn, it’s real
I didn’t know because there were so many people and machines, but now I saw that the president of the association and I were playing on five or six monitors installed under the podium.
The chat window next to the screen is on the verge of exploding with insane firepower.
“Uh, how do I do this?”
“What should I do? I have to apologize right now!”
When the president of the association fired at him with a flushed face, the camera director in front of him grinned.
– Is the reaction good?
“huh?”
”uh?”
what is this again
I looked at the chaotic chat window. In just a few seconds, dozens or even hundreds of chats went up, but the excellent body vision was able to catch every little detail.
– Hahahaha – hahaha Taekyungjwa is crazy hahahahaha – Taegyeongjwa is a civil servant hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha has no such thing I knew it from when I caught an ogre on my way to work with slippers on my way lol – ???: Oh, shit.

It’s a mess, but I know one thing.
The broadcast accident that was thrown away unexpectedly became a jackpot.
