I Was Discharged From the Hunter Guild
Chapter 39
39 – The subcontractor is looking for a new owner
early morning hours.
At this time when the world sleeps in the veil of darkness…
She arrived here alone, with no one around.
A wide stage reminiscent of a theater.
And… a large grand piano placed next to it.
Approaching it slowly,
Cautiously, she sat down on the chair and opened the lid of the piano.
“ha… ”
A deep sigh.
What is contained in it is.. the memory of the past day.. and the deep sadness contained in it.
Feeling it… she slowly put her rough hand on the keyboard.
Her piano playing started like that.
In this situation without a single audience… she started playing the piano surprisingly skillfully.
Calmness and serenity.
And such a performance as if singing the joy of joy.
However, at some point, the performance that continued like that just stopped with a little awkwardness.
It wasn’t that she took her hands off the piano.
her hand…
He was still on the piano, though he was slowly trembling with emotions.
It wasn’t like a mistake.
At this moment… she was waiting.
Until your turn comes around.
Until the end of their stage…
and after a while
She moved her fingers again and started pressing the keys.
As if praising the sun that is about to rise at this moment.
No more pain or suffering.
Rеаd at ոоbӏеmtӏ.соm
Just as we rejoice in the future filled with only hope.
like that..
After finishing such an intense performance of joy.
Her trembling fingers held down the keys and stopped moving.
In this moment, she is feeling and expressing her honest feelings..
despite always smiling.
Since that day, she has not been able to smile sincerely even for a moment.. With her true heart.

Sitting on the sofa in the office, I slowly began to look through the materials.
The general trends of the hunter guilds and the army that have been in my hands periodically since a few weeks ago.
The source of this information is…
It was from Nathan, who would make some kind of pact with me in exchange for forgiveness.
‘I see… it’s going on like this…’
I nodded slowly, grasping the military trends that I had barely been able to figure out after I quit my adjutant job.
Although, in principle, there was no direct connection between the Black Hunter and the Hunter Guild.
Between the private company Black Hunters, the soldier Hunter Guild, and the military unit, there was a commonality that they were operating the same armed group and hunter unit, but there was no right to interfere in each other’s affairs in principle.
In other words, even if Seoul is under attack right now and the military urgently requests support, it means that legally it has nothing to do with us chewing it up.
However… apart from the fact that there was no point of contact in principle, the means by which the military could move us naturally existed.
money.
In other words, they were dealing with Black Hunter companies by indirectly giving orders through requests as we have done so far.
In other words, for the Black Hunters, the military is like a water supply that gives us work. As such, I always needed to keep a close eye on the army’s trends, even in relation to receiving requests.
And in this respect.. The conclusion I came to after receiving the information from Jiseon was as follows.
‘Now that it’s like this… it won’t be possible to get decent requests from the military for a while.’
Abyss eradication requests that have flowed in abundance over the past few months with fairly decent rewards.
The reason why these requests were able to pour out was because there was a power vacuum created in the process of preserving power ahead of large-scale operations in the military.
However, according to the data Jiseon sent, the large-scale operation will begin soon. In other words, this meant that for a while there was no reason for the military to spend a lot of money on the Abyss eradication request.
It may not be possible after the mid-term, but in the early days of such a large-scale operation, there was a tendency to show the military’s independent strength without hiring outside forces in order to attract the attention of the media and win the public’s response.
But that didn’t mean that from now on we would just sit around sucking our fingers.
In general, most of the requests involving battles with the Abyss were made through the military.
However… this is only one type of request.
There were a lot of other requests that black hunters could do, and especially for those of us who had A-class hunters, we were able to receive requests with more salty rewards than those given by the military.
However, in this case, the opponents of the Black Hunters are likely to be humans rather than Abyss, so they will have to bear some burden.
‘But that doesn’t mean you can’t just be in charge of Abyss missions forever. I guess I’m done adapting here now… Shall I take on a request for a person in earnest?’
Of course, dealing with people had to be approached in a fundamentally different way from dealing with the Abyss.
Unlike the Abyss, which depend entirely on simple beastly instincts, people do their own thinking and learning, and because of this, the way they deal with them was even more complicated.
However, that doesn’t mean I’m having trouble with this part.
The fact that the other person can have complex thoughts…
In other words, it also meant that we could use as many different methods as possible.

“Since the situation has turned out like this, I think we will have no choice but to work under another owner for a while.”
“Um… ”
Talking about the current state of the army, I briefly conveyed the fact that we had to take a different route that Abyss Hunt knew.
Kwon Soon put on a slightly puzzled expression as he listened to my words.
On the other hand, there was surprisingly no reaction from Are, and in the case of Glass, rather, he started to show quite a bit of curiosity.
“Aide. What do you mean when you say another water owner? As you know, the jobs we can take on are quite diverse. Do you have anything in mind?”
“There is something I have roughly looked at, but I think it would be good to discuss the exact part with you. Although he has quite a bit of experience working as an adjutant, this is limited to battles with the Abyss. As you have more experience in other fields, I think it would be good to follow your opinions for a while.”
“Yes, it is.”
“I see what you mean. Then, as Mr. Jinhyeon said, let’s discuss it together for a while.”
While agreeing with what I said, they received the list I had chosen and began to check its contents.
at that time..
“Haa.. is this how it ends?”
Kwon-soon let out a deep sigh as she looked through the list.
Then she quietly stared at the ceiling and spoke in a voice filled with regret.
“To be honest, I’m fed up with dealing with people…but it’s much easier and better to shoot the Abyss with excitement.”
“hahahaha… sure. It does. You don’t have to look after them, and there are certain parts of them that are easy to deal with because their behavior is set to some extent.”
Regarding Kwon Soon’s words, I also expressed sympathy with a slightly bitter smile at the corner of my mouth.
However, no matter how much it is, people can’t eat only delicious food forever.
Sometimes, even if you don’t feel like it, there are things you have to eat to live.
So, we started looking for our next employer while looking at the requests on the list for a while…
Unlike Arena Glass, who was looking at it relatively actively, Kwon Soon still showed a reluctant attitude, and finally put it down without looking at the contents of the list.
It was a bit unexpected for me, who knew her to act actively and actively with a smile on her lips at all times.
‘Anyway, it seems that Kwon Soon is quite sensitive to this kind of thing. Well… Although each person has individual differences.’
With that in mind, I looked away from her and started thinking about sharing my opinion with two other people.
But..
At this moment, I didn’t know.
This journey…
This event ended much sooner than expected.
It was a huge turning point for my future life.
