I Stole the Number One Ranker’s Soul - Chapter 80

Episode 081

“Guild leader Yoo Eun-dam came to visit from the Amhyeon guild. Should I let him in?”

Ban Seo-hu’s brows furrowed at the sudden report.

The content in my hand was already annoying enough, but it felt like an additional headache was added.

Should I instruct them to come back later?

While I was thinking for a moment, it became noisy outside.

It is enough to penetrate through the thick mahogany door.

I think I know what’s going on without even looking at it.

The dissuading voices grow louder, and soon the sound of footsteps gets closer.

Seohu Ban stared at the door with sunken eyes.

I quietly put down the document I was reading.

“If you don’t go in yet…”

As if to cut off his words, the thick door burst open.

Behind the smiling Yoo Eun-dam, the irritated faces of the guild members can be seen.

Seohu Ban raised his hand and lightly settled the situation.

“Everyone, please look at your work and then Yoo Eundam come in.”

“Yes.”

Unlike Yoo Eun-dam, who answered playfully and quickly entered the room, each of the guild members glared at them and grumbled.

Occasionally, a voice could be heard saying something like, ‘The little guy…’

There’s no way Yoo Eundam didn’t hear it, but he seemed to just ignore it.

As the door clicked and closed completely, Yu Eundam took an exaggerated deep breath.

“No matter when I come here, I feel suffocated by the smell of old people. Why don’t you at least raise a fish? He lives even if he doesn’t breathe. “Other animals would suffocate and die quickly.”

As soon as I arrived, I felt like my head was pounding as I listened to them talk nonsense.

Seohu Ban didn’t even fight him and cut him off with a single sword.

“What nonsense. Why did you come?”

“I came because I missed my brother.”

A deep sigh flowed from Ban Seo-hu’s mouth.

“I am busy. “Why did you really come?”

“I told you. You said you came because you wanted to see your brother? “I’m just going to check on you and see if anything’s going wrong.”

Ban Seo-hu shook his head at his strange attitude.

It hasn’t been a day or two since Yoo Eun-dam is like this, talking incoherently, and if he gets caught up in that pace for no reason, he just gets tired.

“Nothing much. Thank you for your concern. “Go now.”

Despite the order to congratulate the guests, Eundam Yoo stood still and only curled the corners of his mouth.

Then, he walked silently like a cat and approached right in front of the table where Ban Seo-hu was sitting.

“what?”

Seohu Ban was just annoyed that Yoo Eun-dam came to visit at a time like this.

I glared at him wondering why he was doing this, but Euntam Yoo’s gaze instead caught my eye.

His gaze was persistent, as if trying to catch even the slightest tremor in the eyebrows, eyebrows, or pupils.

Suddenly being observed so blatantly, Ban Seo-hu felt very dirty.

I don’t know why it suddenly did this, but I felt like I wanted it to turn off.

“I don’t think there’s anything special going on.”

His gaze swept over Ban Seo-hu and now settled on the newspaper on his table.

Only then did Seohu Ban, who vaguely guessed the purpose of Yoo Eundam’s visit, shoot back without hiding his displeasure.

“It’s none of your business.”

“Why are you acting like Nam? I saw that article too. “But the person pointed out as the culprit had a very familiar last name.”

“Yoo Eundam. If you came here to scratch, leave with this. “I don’t feel like that right now.”

Ban Seo-hu’s patience was gradually running out.

I wasn’t a very patient person to begin with, but now I was even more patient than usual.

To Seohu Ban, everything had to be done based on a thorough plan, and all unexpected situations had to occur only within expectations.

For such a person, these unexpected events were stressful in themselves.

Perhaps because he grew up in an old-fashioned family, Ban Seo-hu was not a fun person.

Among the people Eundam Yoo knew, he was the most old-timer.

It’s hard to believe that he was friends with Seo Ji-han, a free spirit with this kind of personality.

They say opposites are in sync, so is that true?

Well, I soon broke up with Seo Ji-han.

“Scratching. I came to comfort you. “The Ban family is on the top pages of media outlets, so I don’t think my brother’s feelings can be put into words.”

“Yoo Eundam.”

“Because it’s real. I’m here to comfort you. I trust you bro. “Hunter Seojin Ban is innocent.”

A complicated state of mind appeared on Ban Seo-hu’s face.

He tried to understand Yoo Eun-dam’s true intention and gave his answer in a grumpy tone.

“…thanks.”

“Why are you saying that? “I feel sorry.”

An awkward look appeared on Ban Seo-hu’s face.

Euntam Yoo was always an uncomfortable and awkward partner.

It may be because it is a very different type from yourself.

In fact, a troublemaker who has a unpredictable nature and does not consider ways to deal with things is a very burdensome being.

When Seo Ji-han was in the guild, when Yoo Eun-dam visited, he would usually hang out with Seo Ji-han and chat before returning, so Ban Seo-hu was not very close to Yu Eun-dam.

“In the first place, it’s funny to say that Hunter is being arrested for killing some people. is not it?”

“What do you want to say?”

“It’s all a media play. “You know too.”

Weak hunters who tremble at just one escape stone can be said to be no better than ordinary people due to their poor items and abilities.

If a veteran hunter with some dungeon experience decides to run away, it is almost impossible to catch him.

The police catch someone who travels all over the world using a movement scroll, uses an invisibility scroll to cut off the trace, and even has a financial transaction method that cannot be closed?

We will barely be able to catch it if we pour in an unimaginable amount of manpower and money.

There is nothing we can do about the crimes of strong hunters anyway.

That was an implicit rule that everyone agreed to.

So until now, most ranker-level hunters have been treated as extralegal beings.

Of course, they cannot turn their backs on human society, so they have struck a balance with each other based on common sense.

The balance was achieved by the guilds punishing criminals themselves.

Any trouble caused by the awakened people will be handled by the awakened people.

That was the rule.

If the rules were followed, the severity of the punishment was so strong that even if the criminal died, it was inevitable.

One step at a time is to manage a world that is a lawless area by maintaining a delicate balance with common sense.

That was the current relationship between the awakened and society.

Therefore, information about hunters and dungeons has been strictly controlled and provided to the public.

All violent and cruel news that could cause premature anxiety was excluded.

It’s already an object of envy and fear, but there’s no need to amplify that fear.

The fact that the world of hunters has become like an animal kingdom ruled by power is not unrelated to this lawless zone phenomenon.

It was not uncommon for hunters to die in fights among themselves.

But now they’re arresting him for murdering a colleague. With the same hunters killing each other.

If it were a civilian murder, the story would be a little different.

Normally, it would have been assumed that they had just fought, and after hearing the circumstances appropriately, if there were no problems with the surviving hunter’s mental state, the incident would have ended with a light disciplinary action.

But talking about it as if the country has been turned upside down only means that there is something out there.

“We can solve it. “Like you said, hunters won’t be severely punished anyway.”

“I guess so? He is a relative of the guild leader of the Sky Guild, so who would mess with him? No one in their right mind would do that. Unless you want to have a falling out with the guild.”

Ban Seo-hu glared at Yoo Eun-dam as the words were spoken in an ambiguous tone, whether he was sarcastic or not.

A low voice came out again, scratching my throat.

“Why did you really come?”

“I told you. I came to comfort you.”

“Stop talking nonsense.”

At that point, Eundam Yoo shrugged his shoulders and walked away.

The purpose of my visit in the first place has already been achieved.

So there was no need to waste any more time.

“I wanted to check something.”

“check?”

When asked for more details, Eundam Yoo smiled brightly.

Then, his face suddenly became serious and he gave a low warning.

“Be careful, brother. “The atmosphere is changing.”

“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“You feel it too.”

Eundam Yoo is always like this.

He said something riddle-like from time to time that you couldn’t tell if he was serious or joking, but it didn’t mean he didn’t have any clues, so it drove people crazy.

For the eldest son of the Ban family, who was happy only when everything was clear and straight, it was a speaking style that he really did not like.

“I have to go soon.”

They suddenly barged in, talked a lot of nonsense, said what they wanted to say, left behind only annoying noises, and then left without tying anything to a conclusion.

This is why Ban Seo-hu became tired every time Yu Eun-dam came.

“Okay, go, go.”

Eun-dam Yoo laughed again at Seo-hoo Ban, who was waving his hands as if he was tired.

“But bro, I really believe that Hunter Ban Seo-jin is innocent.”

“under.”

I thought it was ending, but is it starting again?

Yoo Eun-dam, who was looking at Ban Seo-hu sighing with amusement, suddenly threw a bomb.

“I saw it firsthand.”

“what?”

“I just saw it on video.”

“Wait, there’s a video?”

Seohu Ban came to his senses and sat down, but Eundam Yoo only waved his hand as if he had finished what he had to say.

He meant to go now.

“Anyway, brother, be careful too.”

“Wait, Eundam Yoo.”

“I have to go clean.”

“Wait.”

“Then take care of yourself.”

Ban Seo-hu finally gave up after seeing Yoo Eun-dam just taking out the movement scroll and holding it, not even pretending to listen to anything he said.

Anyway, this guy never listens to me.

Always like a child, he only does what he wants to do.

“You just be careful. “Don’t get into an accident.”

“Are you worried?”

Ban Seo-hu did not answer.

And in return, a disgusting answer came back.

“But you know that I’m stronger than you, right?”

“dog sound.”

“haha.”

Eundam Yoo was laughing and was really ready to leave.

If I’m going anyway, I’ll have to say what I want to say.

Seohu Ban pointed out the part that had been bothering him the entire time.

“And you’re wrong.”

“uh?”

“Even fish breathe.”

Eundam Yoo burst into laughter.

It was a very conscious laugh.

I knew this kind of reaction would come, but I was so concerned that I couldn’t help but point it out.

Although Seohu Ban felt a little embarrassed, he sat upright.

“Did you want to correct that part? Anyway, he is a man of upright living. See you later. Take care of yourself and contact me if you need my help.”

“But where are you going?”

“To clean.”

“What is that…”

The last words fell into the air where Yoo Eundam disappeared.

It’s good that Yoo Eun-dam is gone as hoped, but there are still more things to worry about.

Are there really such things as videos?
