– Volume 3 Episode 11

Choi Hee bit her mouth in response to the frivolous answer.

Her blonde hair gave her a happy expression.

On the other hand, Kang Yeong-hoo, the chief of engineering, was always expressionless.

Then he asked a question.

“… Jung Daesik’s performance in the 3rd test was impressive. So let me ask you one more question. Let’s say Jung Daesik becomes an engineer and takes charge of one raid. In a dungeon with all of them at risk, one crew member was seriously injured and his life was in jeopardy. If you don’t get out of the dungeon right away, it’s a dangerous situation.

However, if you give up and return along the way, you will get nothing and the damage will be severe. The level at which the raid can’t continue… It’s like Jung Daesik goes bankrupt and he owes his crew. In that case, what would Jung Daesik do?”

Jung Daesik thought for a moment.

‘How should I answer? In general, life is very important, so he must answer that he must return at all costs. But did you ask the question in anticipation of such an obvious answer? To be honest, I don’t think I’ll go back.’

For a hunter to die in a dungeon, since he became a hunter, he had to be prepared to some extent.

Jung Daesik, who believes that money is as important as human life, naturally chose the latter.

However, I heard that the Titan Raid puts the lives of its members above all else.

That was also the reason why Jung Daesik had to audition for other raids.

Jung Daesik was well aware of his antagonism.

He was not even ashamed of himself.

He thought that saying that life was more important than money was hypocrisy and pretense.

Jung Daesik asked what he was going to say, but he just said it frankly.

“If it were me, I would give up on that operator.”

There was silence as if it was an unexpected answer.

Kang Young-hoo asked.

“You answer easily without too much thought. Why did you make that choice?”

Jung Daesik shrugged his shoulders.

“It’s simple. If I were in the position of a wounded operator in that situation, I’d say leave me and go.”

Choi Hee twisted her lips, and her blonde hair looked convinced.

Kang Young-hoo calmly nodded his head.

“Okay. You can go out and see.”

The last question bothered me, but it was a thing of the past.

Jung Daesik stood up, thinking that even if he fell, it would be no big deal.

Following Jung Daesik was Ki Chul-min.

Jung Daesik gave Cheol-min Ki a greeting of encouragement with a wink and left.

The interview time was not very long.

It took less than an hour for all of Team C to complete the interview.

While waiting for the final result to be announced, the hunters who were isolated in the dungeon were rescued.

They were so exhausted that they couldn’t even make eye contact with Team C.

All of them were eliminated, so without a word, they returned their equipment and weapons and left the dungeon.

After a while.

The results were announced.

The supervisor said to me.

“There are two finalists.”

There was an atmosphere that there might be only one Jung Daesik, so everyone’s eyes widened when he heard that there was one more.

Everyone waited for the director’s lips to open in anticipation that it would be them.

“It’s two people: Jung Daesik, test number 674, and Ki Cheol-min, test number 723.”

Jung Daesik sighed in relief when he heard his name called.

He was worried that he might fall, but he was lucky.

What was surprising was Ki Chul-min.

He was totally unexpected that he would get caught.

Standing blankly with a look of disbelief, three interviewers came out.

“Welcome to the Titan Raid.”

After giving a brief congratulations, Kang Young-hoo asked Jung Daesik to shake hands.

He paused for a moment as he shook hands with Jung Daesik.

Then he held his hand tightly and said something meaningful.

“Coming now, I’ve heard and knew about Jung Daesik. He almost broke the rules of the Titan Raid. But I want to say thank you for finding yourself like this.”

“no.”

Jung Daesik clasped Kang Young-hoo’s hand and smiled.

“I’m really grateful. I will repay you with more than a triple list.”

Kang Young-hoo also briefly shook hands with Ki Cheol-min.

Even the blonde haired came to say congratulations, but Choi Hee crossed her arms in the back and pretended not to know Jung Daesik.

Then, when our eyes met, “Hey!” ‘ He patted his nose and turned his head away.

Leaving her alone like that, Jung Daesik tapped Chul-min Ki on the shoulder, who was still stunned.

“I was hoping, but I really did get to work in the same raid.”

“Huh? Uh……”

The supervisor said to him, who was still puzzled.

” Jung Daesik and Ki Cheol-min, congratulations on your passing. From now on, the two will go through a one-month training period before being hired as full-time crew members. Please accept this.”

The supervisor handed them a card with the login ID and temporary password for the Titan Raid Server.

“Now you can access the Titan Raid with this. If you log in within 24 hours and verify your identity, you will be issued a temporary pass and membership card for the Titan Raid.”

As soon as he took the card and held it, joy spread across Ki Chul-min’s face.

The other hunters who unfortunately fell also congratulated Jung Daesik and Ki Chul-min.

As they exchanged words of encouragement, Jung Daesik felt like a new phase had begun in his life.

Episode 17. Foreign Legion

“Soundbite.”

Jung Daesik packs a bag with nothing to pack.

He was going to liquidate the inn room life and move out.

The Titan raid was providing private housing only to those who wanted it.

It was a housing complex in Namyangju New Town, where the headquarters of the Titan raid was located.

I haven’t been there yet, but looking at the pamphlet, it was quite plausible.

In fact, it doesn’t matter where you live.

I don’t know if it’s an apartment in the middle of Gangnam in my name.

It was the house I had to leave when I left the Titan raid anyway, so I wasn’t particularly interested.

Rather, I felt a sense of disappointment in organizing this cramped inn room.

‘At the point of getting out of this gutter that was like a rat’s nest… You should feel good, but why are you so sad?’

Jung Daesik gasped and looked around the empty inn room once.

Most of the messy household chores have been thrown away.

All but a few clothes were in the trash.

He thought he didn’t have much, but when he finished packing his things, the room was completely empty.

“Bachelor, have you unloaded everything?”

An older innkeeper appeared and gently shook his head.

Age spots bloomed and his face was wrinkled, and the owner of the inn showed his disappointment.

“It’s a pity that I’m actually leaving. Still, it was nice that the bachelor gave it to me every once in a while.”

“Thank you for all this time. I’ll leave that gas burner behind, so if anyone needs it, please give it to me.”

“Yeah, yeah. I don’t know where I’m going, but I’ll live well, live well.”Hearing the words of the innkeeper, Jung Daesik left.

As I passed an alley that was already narrow but narrower due to illegal parking, I turned around without realizing it.

Then he rebuked himself for his actions.

‘What are you looking at? There is nothing to regret It starts again from now on. You’re only running forward!’

Jung Daesik got on the subway and headed for Namyangju.

When he got off the station and headed to the Titan raid, he was quite familiar with it now.

Although he has not yet become an official member of the crew, he has been in and out for training for the past month.

The word is training, but training seemed to be more focused on unit assignment than training.

This is because the commanders of each unit of the Titan Raid took turns training.

They trained Jung Daesik and Ki Chul-min in their own way, and they seemed to recognize their compatibility with their units through the process.

It seems that Ki Cheol-min was looking into his one-eyed battalion.

The one-eyed unit was mainly a gathering place for brain-wave hunters, but rather than attacking dungeons or hunting monsters, they were mainly active in exploration, information gathering, and intelligence.

In addition, there were several units, such as the Mammoth Unit, the Frankenstein Unit, and the Mermaid Unit.

Each unit was different in character and characteristics.

And all of those units were assigned Jung Daesik.

Jung Daesik was the party, so I couldn’t know the exact details, but I could tell by looking at it.

In order to take Jung Daesik, it seems that the battle between the commanders was no joke.

Worth noting, Jung Daesik was in the spotlight from the moment he appeared in the recruitment exam.

The contents of the examination documents he submitted, that is, the fact that he was a level 6 hunter who was born with three abilities, was surprising, and all kinds of rumors floating around, including the Zodiac Raid and various large-scale military scouts, as well as love calls from abroad. The fact that he is the best talent pouring in has also attracted attention.

When the test started in earnest, it surprised the audience with its attack power that smashed the hologram room, and in the 3rd real test, it boasted knowledge and judgment as good as any other seasoned hunter, and the Titan Raiders penetrated exactly what they wanted to see through the test.

As a result, only Team C, to which he belonged, was able to pass the third test.

As such, Jung Daesik was a talented person who could play a part in any unit.

Moreover, he became a Hunter only about half a year ago.

He doesn’t know how much more he will grow in the future.

Of course, everyone had their eyes on it.

The commanders of Attack on Titan were not as outspoken as in the case of Attack on Zodiac.

Where Jung Daesik would be deployed was decided by the engineering commander in consideration of the circumstances of all units, the commander’s opinion, and the characteristics of Jung Daesik’s abilities.

He was careful because the commander of the unit came forward and talked about it, as it could make the engineering leader Kang Yeong-hoo feel uncomfortable.

Unlike many cases of large-scale attack, Kang Yeong-hoo, the chief of engineering, exerted a strong influence on the Titan raid.

Perhaps because he was a small and medium-sized raider, he was still active and participated in the big hunting by hand.

His fighting abilities were not clearly known, but his commanders all looked up to him and trusted him.
