Civil Servant Hunter’s S-class Resignation Log

Chapter 39

“How long have you been in contract?”

“It hasn’t been that long. It hasn’t even been a month yet?”

Thinking about it makes me cry again. What crime did I commit to meet two L-classes in this short time and even get caught?

“It hasn’t been as long as I thought it would be. I thought it had been a few years since you called them by name.”

“As long as you put your mind to it, can’t you be friends?”

“Is our civil servant sister teasing you? I can tell from the nickname.”

“How could you say that? Don’t ignore my brilliant naming sense. Our Eliza likes it too!”

[Administrator: ꒪⌓꒪ ]

“Look. Even now, they’re thrilled.”

Seora smiled broadly and gently stroked the administrator’s emoticon. Jarim, who did not know the truth, admired her.

“Wow, that’s amazing. The contractor in Baskar was having a hard time because the administrator harassed him whenever they had time.”

“Harass? How?”

“They will make him do this and that. Catch the monsters that come through the gate, or close the dungeon. Doesn’t the Earth’s administrator ask you to do that? Big Sister, you said you were an S-class.”

Seora, who had revealed the truth to Jarim before eating the chicken, blinked. Sometimes the administrator told her to be careful or cheered her on fighting, but…

“Well… no, they don’t. They never forced anything on me in the first place.”

“Wow, they must be very fond of you, Sister. The contractor in Baskar will be furious if he finds out.”

[Administrator: ٩(*˙︶˙*)۶]

Even with both hands up, the administrator smiled happily. It’s cute and embarrassing to hear that they care much about me. Seora coughed for no reason and ate a chicken leg.

Liza-ssi, you can put your hands down now.

“I’m glad I came to Earth now.”

“Why?”

“I heard you’re actually an S-class. Perhaps it is because your skill proficiency is low, but I think you will get to L-class after a while.”

What? Seora stared at Sung Jarim blankly and stopped eating the chicken.

“Since you’re already an S-class and the administrator’s contractor is a cheat-like character, even if you face me head-on now, our skills will be similar.”

Why do you say such an important thing when I’m eating chicken?

Suddenly, her appetite disappeared. Seora put down the chicken.

“Ha. I think you can kill me with your current abilities. Would you be a walking disaster once you become an L-class? Ooooooh. Amazing. Sister, let’s hurry up and raise your rating.”

“Don’t say terrible things.”

Seora stuffed a drumstick into Jarim’s mouth, telling her to eat chicken.

Not S-class, but L? L-class, where notifications are sent to all domestic Awakened when achieved?

Oh, that is an absolute no.

“By the way, Returnee-ssi. Why do you call me big sister? It is embarrassing to be called by such a title by an elder over 100.”

Chicken legs fell from Jarim’s mouth at the merciless attack.

“Elder? Elder?!”

“I’ve seen you’re 129 years old, so there’s no point denying it, Elder.”

“On Earth, I’m still at the green age of 26!”

“Mm. And I’m 22 years old. 107 years younger than Elder.”

Seora, who raised both hands, spread her fingers two at a time and waved them. Jarim quietly ate the chicken soaked with tears.

Oooh, our elder. Being old must be difficult, but you eat chicken well.

“Oh, I have a question for you. What happened to the contractor you know?”

“What do you mean?”

“Is he not in danger because he made a contract with an administrator?”

“Because of the contract? He’s mostly in danger because the administrator told him to do this and that, but it’s never been a problem in the contract itself.”

“I see. So it’s not like the contractor’s position is dangerous.”

At Seora’s words, Jarim looked like she had been hit.

“That’s all you want to know? Aren’t you curious about the administrator’s identity? I’m sure you don’t know.”

“Yeah, I don’t know. I didn’t even ask Liza because I wasn’t curious.”

Rather, Seora looked at Jarim strangely, as if asking what she should be curious about.

“Well, it is not normal, but what will happen on its own? As I said, my safety and peace are the most important to me. I absolutely do not want to be at the center of a typhoon.”

Seora murmured, saying I’m tired enough just being next to you now…

If it weren’t for the hotel life, I’d just shoot you with the gun…

As Seora murmured as if deliberately letting her listen, Jarim remained silent, asking nothing more.

Mm, Yoon Seora should not be bothered. Annoying the Earth’s administrator’s contractor will get you a bullet in the head. Jarim knelt to her knees and shook her head vigorously.

It had been about two hours since she met Yoon Seora; Jarim had a perfect grasp of her character already.

***

That night.

A dim light flickered in the small bedroom of the suite where Seora was sleeping. Resembling a touch, it wandered through the air and soon snapped at her black hair.

[The system administrator quietly whispers that they won’t force you to do something you don’t like, so don’t worry.]

Even though Seora was already asleep and couldn’t see the message, the administrator gave the contractor a heartfelt message.

The light flickering as if stroking her hair soon disappeared.

But the administrator’s ears still remained here, so the voice of the person in the other bedroom reached them enough.

“Administrator-nim. I’ve seen a lot of things in Baskar, but I’m not going to bring it up here. This is not Baskar.”

Jarim looked into the air as if she knew the administrator was there.

“I will distinguish between what I can and shouldn’t answer when asked by your contractor. At least until you approve.”

Jarim’s golden eyes traced the past.

A hundred years. Spending a hundred years in a place other than Earth was difficult.

Jarim clenched her fists.

“… By the way, Administrator-nim. If I say something I shouldn’t say, can you just warn me quietly without killing me? Then I’ll shut up on my own, so please don’t kill me…”

There was no answer returned. She was very nervous even though she knew she could not hear an answer because she was not a contractor.

“Baskar’s administrator wanted to smash me with a stone whenever they had time… Please, Earth’s administrator, please don’t do that…”

One such experience was enough.

Jarim fell to her knees and began to pray. Please accept my wish. Please accept my wish…

She prayed all night without knowing that the system administrator, who burst into laughter, had returned to Seora’s side.

***

“Mmph.”

A harsh voice popped out between Seora’s lips.

Jarim, who had been whistling next to her, trembled and tried to get away from her as much as possible.

However, she could not shake off Seora’s cold eyes.

Until this morning, Seora had been in the best condition. She had felt good because she had had a good night’s dream, and the lounge breakfast was perfect.

However, on the way to work, the moment she saw the cameras and reporters encamped in front of the association, her happiness was shattered.

“WhydoIhavetogothroughallthis? Justwhy?”

“I don’t know what you’re saying, Seora.”

“Do I have to go through that because of you?”

Seora slapped the back of the L-class Awakened, who had appeared noisily.

“Oh, it hurts, it hurts! Akh! Why does it hurt when I have a higher grade?! Oh, maybe this is the famous mother’s back smashing—!”

“I can do a full-body smashing if you want.”

Jarim quickly became quiet.

“How the hell am I supposed to break through that? Everyone would know that you are not a normal person by looking at your eyes.”

Impressive red hair and more noticeable golden eyes.

Her eyes, she had said, which were more appropriate to say that they contained fireworks than jewel-like brilliance, changed when she obtained the title ‘Mad Eyes’ in Baskar. She did not know how the word ‘mad’ occurred, but the particular color that went with the name would be suspicious to anyone looking at it.

However, she couldn’t raise suspicion by wearing a hat.

‘But do I have to go to work?’

Since this is the case, can’t I just contact the director saying that I will be staying at the hotel for the time being? A happy hotel life with room service is waiting for me, so why bother going to work?

‘Why didn’t I think of this right away?’

Seora, who quickly felt better, took out her cell phone while giggling Hehehehe.

“I can help you with that.”

But at the familiar voice, she turned her head blankly.

Kang Sejun, who was still handsome—but now looked a little less handsome than before, perhaps because of the sculptural beauty she had seen in her dreams—was standing there with a serene face.

Why are you here…?

“Is your body okay? Why am I seeing Mage-ssi who should be in Daegwallyeong? What’s this? Are you a ghost? Is Mage-ssi dead?”

“You’re just going to say whatever you want, aren’t you? Of course I’m back because the dungeon is done. Besides.”

Kang Sejun glanced at Jarim.

“… I have a lot of questions.”

“Hey, hey. I thought it was thrilling, so was it because of this person? Aigoo, look at this terrifying energy. How scary, how scary!”

“Hey, Elder. Did you feel this person coming?”

When Seora asked Is it possible? Jarim smiled brightly and nodded her head.

“Mm!”

Aigoo, what Aigoo?! You damn puppy! You should have said that right away!

One on the left, one on the right.

It was truly a terrible position, indeed.

Fortunately, Seora did not have to deal with two L-classes on both sides simultaneously.

Thanks to Kang Sejun, who first showed his face and headed to the association.

“Kang Sejun-ssi! Have you met the new L-class Awakened? Why did you visit the association?!”

“Do you know who it is? Please tell us something!”

“Kang Sejun-ssi!”

The reporters, who had been waiting, shouted at the top of their lungs and immediately turned their cameras to the appearance of another gold nugget.

The viewfinder was full of handsome face to photograph, but unfortunately, that was the last subject on the camera.

“Uwaah! Agh! M-My camera!”

“Ah, nooooooo! My memory caaaaaard!”

All the cameras exploded with a pop because of Kang Sejun. Against the background of desperate cries and explosions, Kang Sejun leisurely entered the association.

After that, combined with the images of reporters falling, it was like a scene from a movie.

‘He’s the main character of a movie, not a novel.’

But Seora couldn’t bear to admire it. This was because the happy hotel life had been blown away thanks to Kang Sejun-ssi’s direct defeat of the reporters.

Bad Kang Sejun… You’ll see.
