Civil Servant Hunter’S S-Class Resignation Log Chapter 228
Episode 228:
I wanted to know what it was, and when I took it out, the vivid colors contrasted with my pure white hands and shined brightly.
“….”
“….”
“….”
Silence fell. The three people quietly looked at what Seo-ra was holding, with identical faces as if they had been stamped into a frame.
“…What is this?”
“jewel…?”
The first thing that came into view was a large emerald with a blindingly beautiful shine. There were so many diamonds embroidered around it that it was impossible to count them, and emeralds as big as thumbnails were beautifully decorated in between them.
So, it was an enormous emerald necklace that could have appeared in a royal jewelry exhibition right now. I felt like I could buy a house with just this one.
“…Why do you carry something like this in your hoodie pocket?”
Ali was so surprised that he stammered and asked. Seora was really curious.
“Iknow, right. “Why do I carelessly carry something so precious…?”
“Seo-ra, you didn’t steal this, did you?”
Seo-ra and Ali looked at Jae-heon blankly. Unlike the two people who were still unconscious, Jaeheon’s face was serious.
“No, no. No matter how cool it is that you want it, there is no way you would steal it. “I made a mistake.”
However, seeing as it was frozen solid, it seemed like the doubts had not completely gone away. Seo-ra lamented.
“Do you know that your brother is the worst? “How on earth does your brother view your younger brother?”
“Sorry. But because you like expensive things so much.”
“But I don’t just steal or anything?”
Of course, if a bad person has it, they will steal it without hesitation!
Ali, who doesn’t know Seo-ra’s feelings, says you went too far and slaps Jae-heon on the back. His body swayed greatly.
“Anyway, I didn’t steal it. And I’ve never seen anything like this before, so what…”
The moment she grumbled while looking at the necklace, something quickly passed through her mind.
A mansion full of all kinds of jewels she had never seen in her life. A place where jewels are piled up like a mountain so much that you can step on them.
‘This can’t be right….’
Seora stared into space without realizing it. A proud emoticon appeared as if it was the correct answer.
【Administrator: (*´ ﹀ `*)】
‘You’re crazy!’
Did he put the jewel in his arms so that he didn’t just go there consciously, but his body went there himself? It was absurd. No matter how much I coveted the jewel, I couldn’t believe it was something like this…!
‘Awesome, I love it!’
The clown of truth soared. It was even better to think that it was given by the manager and not someone else.
“Why are you suddenly making such a perverted smile?”
Ali asked with a shocked expression on Seora’s sudden smile. Looking at Jaeheon’s serious expression, it seemed like he was once again contemplating whether he had actually stolen it.
“I didn’t steal it, so open your face. This is contractual. “I guess he slipped it into his pocket to appease me.”
“what! “You’re giving me something like this?!”
Ali shouted and hurriedly looked into space.
“Someone gives me something like that, but I don’t have anything? “I don’t want a necklace or anything, but can you at least give me a chest of gold coins?”
It seems like he’s talking to the god Athena, but the answer he gets back doesn’t seem to be very good. Ali chuckled with a regretful look on his face.
“Take a walk, Seoraya. “I think it will suit you well.”
Perhaps because his doubts were resolved, Jaeheon encouraged him with a brighter face.
“Hmm. Try walking. I know. “Usually, something like this should be given to the person who gave it.”
【Administrator: __ϕ(..;)】
The administrator was very embarrassed. Seora grinned and muttered.
‘But if I’m going to give it to you, I think a ring would be better than a necklace.’
This time no answer came back. Wouldn’t he be looking for a ring with a bright red face? It would be nice to have an emerald ring that resembles the manager’s eyes.
Seo-ra hummed and put the necklace into her inventory. I planned to walk in front of the manager later when he gave me the ring.
You’ll love it, right? Maybe your face will blush. What a shy beauty. Just imagining it was so thrilling that I couldn’t help but exhale.

Shameless Yoon Seo-ra sat in Athena’s headquarters under the sea for a month just because Ali and Athena gave her permission.
Jaeheon was happy, and the members stuck their tongues, saying that the branch leader’s younger brother was also unusual, and Ali coaxed him that if he liked this place so much, he could sit there for the rest of his life.
Life in Athena was better than I thought. First of all, I don’t know if I learned from Koreans that people are hungry for food, but the food served at each meal was of very good quality.
In addition, as Jaeheon assured, it was very fun to train as a group once a day in a stylish training room with a clear view of the underwater scenery.
The sight of Yoon Jae-heon, whose condition had improved drastically since she appeared, handling the members was so brutal. When Seo-ra, who had sneaked in and trained together, got angry and rushed at Yoon Jae-heon, all the members applauded.
It was truly pitiful to see them shedding tears as they heard from the devilish branch manager that a savior had come to save them.
Seo-ra Yoon, who had worked as a low-level employee of the association for three years, released the anger she had built up toward her superiors on Jae-heon Yoon. The members cheered even more.
However, Yoon Jae-heon laughed and said it was okay to get hit and increased the intensity of training without mercy. From then on, no one, including Seo-ra, could laugh again.
I had a regular day, but I wasn’t bored even for a single moment. It was fun to go see the olive tree or walk around the building with the nine-tailed fox.
After a peaceful month and a half, an ominous message shattered the peace and reappeared.
【An earthquake occurred on an unknown island in the Pacific Ocean.】
【An old door begins to open on an unknown island in the Pacific Ocean.】
【Notice to awakened people around the world. The door on the 10th floor of the Labyrinth Dungeon is preparing to bloom.】
【Remaining time: 30 days】
Seora, who was sitting on the bed and stroking the nine-tailed fox’s tail, quietly watched the messages that appeared one after another in front of her eyes.
As expected, the message did not end there.
【The 10th floor of the labyrinth is connected to the 9th floor. If you fail to conquer that floor, the planet’s destruction will accelerate.】
When the news of the 9th floor’s blooming was announced, my heart sank even though I had already seen the message.
Just before the door on the 9th floor opened, what happened to the damn enemy and the death of Jeong Ho-young flashed before my eyes one after another.
Seo-ra closed her eyes tightly.
〖“This time, nothing like what happened on the 9th floor will ever happen.”〗
The nine-tailed fox who was with Seo-ra and saw the message immediately stood up and rubbed his face against Seo-ra’s cheek. Hearing the manager’s warm voice, Seo Ra hugged the nine-tailed fox’s neck. My hands were cold.
“I know. Unlike back then, I’m as alert as ever, so I’ll never get hurt. “But I just get sad every once in a while.”
I met Hoyoung Jeong for the first time 12 years ago, not long after the New Year.
I never imagined that she would be the first precious person I lost after my parents passed away.
If I had known this would happen, I would have contacted Hoyoung Jeong more often. A lot of people will tell you that they are grateful that you protected them when they were young. Instead of calling me guild leader, I should have called her sister and approached her more warmly.
Regrets gradually piled up. Jeong Ho-young told me not to be sad for a long time, but this feeling of guilt and regret weighing on my heart seemed like it would never go away.
“When I go to Korea, I have to go straight to my sister.”
But it seemed difficult to go right away.
As soon as the news of the blooming on the 10th floor became known, Ali called Jae-heon and Seo-ra and informed them that they had to attend the WDO meeting.
“Now that I think about it, there was a meeting. “I guess I’ll have to go this time too.”
During the preparations for the 9th floor, I was injured and could not attend the meeting, and I was attacked by the enemy right before the door opened, so I could barely fight. I have to apologize to everyone for that.
“Come right away with me. “There is no need to go through the hassle of stopping by Korea.”
“Then it’s convenient for me, but… wouldn’t that be too rude to the leader?”
Those who criticized Seo-ra were not only Koreans. There were people all over the world who were disappointed, and they would not look kindly at Ali, who was with me.
However, Ali only snorted despite Seo-ra’s concerns.
“Is this your military service number to worry about others?”
“….”
I had nothing to say. My nose is three feet long, so who should I worry about?
In particular, Ali, who was considered one of the world’s strongest men, was a person who would gladly break others’ fingers when they pointed at him.
“And would it be better for you to come with me?”
“why?”
“Because the God who made a contract with me is the God who represents justice.”
ah! right. Athena is the god of war, but also the god of wisdom and justice. Therefore, Ali, a contractor, cannot do anything that defies justice.
But what about her attending an official event with Seo-ra? Seo-ra represents that he never did anything that went against justice.
“You’re working so hard for me! oh my god. “I was touched!”
“If you’re moved, come into Athena. “Nothing is free in this world.”
As expected, it was Ali who never missed an opportunity. Seora smiled brightly and shouted.
“I need to pack my bags. Everyone is a good person and they give me a lot of things so I have a lot to take care of! Kid, busy, busy. Then I’ll go first! “Please let me know when the date is set!”
Seo-ra shouted sweetly, bowed her waist and quickly ran out of the director’s office. It was as fast as a squirrel.
“I raised my younger brother very well. “He’s probably the only one who does that in front of me.”
When Ali burst into laughter, Jaeheon, who had been quiet, answered proudly.
“I didn’t do anything. “It’s just that Seora grew up well.”
“okay. I forgot that I was your darling. While you’re at it, try showing off your arms a little more. “It would be nice for you to live in Athena with your younger brother.”
“That’s right. But if you don’t like it, you can’t force it. “I’m really sorry to the leader.”
“You don’t look sorry at all?”
Jaeheon shrugged his shoulders with a shy expression. But what can you do? Just as joining Athena was for Seo-ra’s sake, Seo-ra was the most important thing to him.
“Rather than that, you want to continue working as a civil servant? Seeing that I’m being criticized, I think it’s going to drop to an unprecedented level. “If Song Hanna has a conscience, shouldn’t she be let go?”
“Oh, I think I had some conversation with Aunt Seo-ra about that. I think my aunt was also very disturbed by this incident. “Because you know better than anyone else that the reason Seora is stuck in the association is because of you.”
“That’s good news. “Then now I can propose recruitment without hesitation.”
“I guess you still don’t have any hesitation?”
“I’m a person who doesn’t really have any hesitation.”
In response to Ali’s confident shout, Jaeheon nodded, saying it was correct.
“You must have been quite relieved than that. Yoon Seo-ra looks better than you think. “It doesn’t seem like he’s forcing himself to pretend to be okay.”
Jaeheon smiled bitterly at Ali’s words.
Jeong Ho-young’s death was quite shocking even to him. While he and Song Hanna were busy trying to hide Seo-ra, Jeong Ho-young, whose name was not yet known at the time, took care of Seo-ra instead, so he was also grateful to him.
But I never thought I would pass away like this this time. I couldn’t repay the favor, and I was so sad that we couldn’t see each other anymore. Especially since it happened while protecting Seo-ra.
The good news was that, thanks to Seo-ra’s contractual nature, she was able to comfort her well, so even though she was sad, she didn’t break down and was able to hold on bravely.
If I ever get the chance, I really wanted to express my gratitude to Contractor.
