The Dungeon Cleaning Life of a Once Genius Hunter - Chapter 10
010
010
The accident happened in an instant.
The most common dimensional dungeon.
It is a dungeon with the fewest casualties because it is an alien place, not a space on Earth, but there are no traps and the paths are not complicated.
That fact did not change until I entered the boss room.
But…
“Soyeon? “Why are you doing this, Soyeon?”
Team Leader Park’s urgent voice was heard.
While dismantling the boss monster Maximum Slime, Moon So-yeon suddenly collapsed.
At first I thought it was overwork. I remember feeling quite tired recently.
But when I checked the condition, I realized that the problem was much more serious.
Stiff limbs, lips turning blue. Difficulty breathing.
This is clearly…
“…I touched slime. “I’m addicted.”
“what?! “I’m wearing proper protective clothing, so that can’t be possible!”
Han Sang-hyuk looked unconvinced.
Of course, that didn’t last long either.
When I laid Soyeon Moon upright, I could immediately see that the side of the protective clothing was torn.
“Take him outside right now! Go out and call support! Junwoo! Please move Soyeon with Hunter! hurry!”
“Hey Kim Jun-woo! What are you doing you bastard! in action!!”
I heard Han Sang-hyuk’s voice, which was almost like a scream, but I didn’t move.
“…teacher?”
I’m sorry, but even if we take him out right now, it’s too late.
Maximum slime’s poison is fatal. If it comes in direct contact with the skin, the golden time is only about 5 minutes.
Of course, there is an antidote in the support team, but it is impossible for the support team to arrive in 5 minutes, nor is it possible for us to reach the support team in 5 minutes.
The odds of being saved if I don’t teleport…
It was the moment I shook my head and said there was no way.
The blood began to completely disappear from Moon So-yeon’s face.
When I saw that, it was in my head.
‘…last resort.’
For some reason, the story about the lizard that I always talked about came to mind.
Cut off the tail.
A very inefficient and damaging means of harming one’s own body.
However, it is an unavoidable measure to save one’s life.
…Tsk, not like that.
“Kim Min-joo.”
“yes yes?”
“Take out the sword.”
As soon as Minju Kim finished speaking, he took out a sword from his inventory. Of course, I had no idea.
“it is not diffcult. Just cut it once. “You can do it, right?”
“…Surely Soyeon?”
“no. me.”
Kim Min-ju’s eyes widened.
An expression that did not understand what was being said.
She withdrew her sword and raised her voice.
“What are you doing!”
“What is that bastard saying!!”
“Junwoo! “What’s wrong with you!”
At the same time, screams erupted from all over the place.
Frustrating guys, I let out a light sigh.
“Please be quiet. “Hurry up because we don’t have time.”
“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but… I understand.”
Soon, Minju Kim took a stance as if she had stopped thinking about other things.
Just for a moment, hold your sword tightly with straight eyes.
“Balmu.”
[Acquired skill: Balmu]
[Skill activation]
For a moment, I wasn’t even supposed to use the skill…
Sigh – a
pain so severe that it made me feel dizzy was engraved in my stomach.
Blood spurted out like a waterfall, soaking the floor.
[Attack towards caster detected]
[Entering combat stance as of current time]
[Skill activated]
[Acquired skill: Hyper Boost]
My whole body felt like it was on fire.
A movement skill that can only be activated during battle.
I thought I would never have to use it while doing cleaning work…
“I will take Soyeon to the support team. See you there.”
“What are you talking about? Even if you take a taxi from here to there, it will take just 30 minutes…!”
Paang –
Team Leader Park’s voice could no longer be heard.
Instead, only the sound of the wind tearing began to hit my ears.
***
“I came quickly and survived.”
Association Support Team Affiliated Medical Center Emergency Department.
After completing the treatment, the medical staff opened their mouths in a calm voice.
At the same time, sighs of relief broke out here and there.
“Fortunately, he regained consciousness right away… I think he can go back after seeing the condition for a while.
“Thank you!”
Team Leader Park bent his waist 90 degrees to a medical staff member who was as old as his son.
“Oh, and the person over there…”
“This is Kim Jun-woo.”
“yes. Mr. Kim Jun-woo, please stop by the Administrative Affairs Department when you leave. Cost of suturing.”
The doctor pointed at my stomach covered in bandages.
I really get paid for this. How much does it cost to get a few stitches?
Soon, the doctor left and we all approached the bed.
Moon So-yeon, who came back from the dead, smiled shyly.
“Hey, do you really want to make people worry?!”
“Hey! “What does that mean to the injured person?”
“Are you okay, Soyeon?”
“sure. “I can’t give up.”
Moon So-yeon smiled.
But regardless of her expression, Han Sang-hyuk’s clothes were about to explode.
“Ha, fuck. “How can a protective suit rip just by tossing and turning your arm a few times?”
“Uh-huh, you’re not swearing at the hospital.”
“Doesn’t it look like you’re going to curse? No, honestly, it doesn’t make sense to not change a single protective suit for over half a year! By the way, I, the hunter bastards, just say something and they will replace all of your equipment with new ones! “What on earth are we doing?”
“Hey, you guy…”
“Oh, what did I say wrong…!”
At Team Leader Park’s signal, Han Sang-hyuk finally closed his mouth. And then, belatedly, I looked into Kim Min-ju’s eyes.
“Oh no… That doesn’t mean Hunter did anything wrong…”
“It’s okay.”
Kim Min-ju answered without even looking at Han Sang-hyuk.
The atmosphere suddenly became cold.
Well, everyone seems to think he got on the active hunter’s nerves…
Judging by his expression, he’s just thinking about something else.
“Anyway, take this opportunity to get some rest. “I will take care of handling industrial accidents.”
“…Would you like me to do it? “Industrial disaster.”
“of course! I definitely got hurt while working! “Don’t think about anything else…”
“Oh, Junwoo? Where are you going?”
Soyeon Moon cut off Team Leader Park’s words and opened her mouth to me.
“To get some air.”
I answered roughly and left the hospital room.
A fairly busy hallway with medical staff coming and going.
My steps across that place were lighter than ever.
‘This… things are going better than expected?’
I soon burst into a smile that I had been suppressing.
This is an opportunity.
A golden opportunity to unlock the ban.
[Inflight – Unlock Condition: Dungeon Cleaning Team Budget Expansion]
Equipment deterioration due to lack of budget.
The safety of the cleaning team was a cracked plate that would have broken at some point.
Ultimately, it is the perfect time to suggest budget expansion since a team member is injured.
If we risk this accident, we will have no choice but to receive support, even if only for the sake of our image.
‘Cluck, click…’
With this, you already have two skills.
If this continues, it won’t be long before we say goodbye to the cleaning team.

“What is that bastard…”
Han Sang-hyuk looked at the closed door with a thud.
“Your expression is very stiff. Is there a problem?”
“Of course he was very angry.”
“Oh, as expected, I caused too much trouble….”
“That’s not it. “You’re hurt.”
Team Leader Park shook his head at Moon So-yeon’s self-blame.
“He may seem like a bad guy, but he cares deeply about his colleagues. “You know cancer when you see it.”
Team Leader Park’s confident expression.
Kim Min-joo looked at that in silence.
‘He cares so much about his colleagues…’
As expected, if it’s that person…
Kim Min-joo repeated this and shifted his gaze to the tightly closed door.
“Anyway, the more you look at that bastard, the more mysterious it becomes, doesn’t it? “Should I call him a great guy or a crazy guy?”
“…why? “What happened?”
Moon So-yeon asked in confusion, not knowing what he was talking about.
“Oh, you don’t remember. That bastard saved you. “And that too by using skills!”
“Are you Joo Jun-woo?”
“okay! By the way, I haven’t been a cleaner for a long time, but this is the first time I’ve been a cleaner who uses skills…”
“Junwoo saved me?!” “What should I do? I don’t even know that… I didn’t even say thank you…”
Han Sang-hyuk’s mouth was tightly shut.
It seemed like the skill wasn’t even entered into my head at all.
“That’s what I’m talking about… Hunter Kim Min-ju.”
Meanwhile, Team Leader Park slowly turned his head towards Kim Min-ju.
“yes?”
“What do you think about Junwoo?”
“well. He seems like a good person, but his face is not to my taste…”
“Oh no. That’s not it. “What do you think as a hunter?”
“…ah.”
Kim Min-ju’s face became slightly flushed.
But he immediately continued talking as if nothing had happened.
“Hunter…”
“Honestly, that guy is a guy who doesn’t deserve to be here. Hunter, you know this too, right? I think I know not only dungeon and monster information, but also strategy methods better than most hunters…” “
Are you saying you can transfer me to the operations team?”
“yes. I know it’s hard. But if there is even the slightest possibility…”
Kim Min-ju nodded.
This is a fact that Team Leader Park already knew even if he didn’t say it.
Looking at the situation so far, Kim Jun-woo’s change of team was not at the level of possibility.
“He is definitely superior to most hunters in terms of experience and skill. I can guarantee that. But the problem is…”
“Is there a problem?”
“yes. “The problem is that the teacher is on the cleaning team.”
As soon as Kim Min-ju finished speaking, Han Sang-hyuk jumped up.
“No, Hunter, what you’re saying is really annoying, isn’t it? “What do you mean, if you’re on the cleaning team, you can’t even go up?”
“That’s not it. “In fact, it’s the opposite.”
“…what?”
“Even I can’t estimate your true skills. It will be much better than me, a B-level bumbling idiot. Perhaps the teacher himself knows the power best. Nevertheless, the teacher chose the cleaning team rather than the operations team. “What does that sound like?”
“Are you doing this because you want to?”
“yes. “I can’t think of anything else.”
Minju Kim looked around at each team member.
It seems that everyone was quite shocked by this completely unexpected fact.
Who on earth would want to do a cleaning job?
To put it bluntly, even if you were to ask an unemployed person passing by, they would probably refuse.
Moreover, isn’t Kim Jun-woo a guy who has the skills to become a hunter right now?
A guy like that stays on the cleaning team because he wants to.
The team members were caught in an ambiguous feeling that went back and forth between shock and emotion.
“The teacher has tremendous skills, but he doesn’t want to get involved in the hierarchy of the association or hunters. Or maybe I like the cleaning team more than the place where there is no camaraderie.”
“If that’s the case… I wouldn’t be so quick to recommend it.”
“yes. If you join the operations team, you will definitely become a top hunter… but you can’t force it unless you want to. “Maybe it’s rude to even say it.”
“Then I can’t help it. “I’ll have to keep this a secret from Junwoo.”
“yes. “I think that would be good too.”
A solemn atmosphere.
Han Sang-hyuk, who was thinking deeply about something, opened his mouth insinuatingly.
“It was just a thought that occurred to me. “Junwoo, if that bastard thinks so terribly of his colleagues… he wouldn’t have gone to the association to complain right now… right…?”
Everyone’s eyes lit up.
