“Let’s talk first.”
All powers of this subjugation group were in the hands of Richie, and Richie was not a fool enough to fight blindly.
“After all, you are a race that can communicate. Then move on.”
The angel quickly waved his hand once in the air, and in an instant, the background changed to a temple-like place.
The power he had just shown was telling him just how strong this angel was.
“First, let me explain the situation. We have won the war against the devil. And they are the lesser demons we captured.”
“The lesser… the devil?”
“okay.”
The beasts that overflowed clearly had the power that can be felt from the first-class gate beasts.
“But in the course of the war, we also suffered a lot of damage. The number of demons captured was staggering, but there were not enough people to manage them.”
“So we released the prisoners where we were. Is this?”
“Exactly. I’ve checked quite a few worlds, but none are as well-organized as this one. So it was. The devil appeared in your world.”
It was something that could not be easily accepted, but from the moment the door already existed, this world was a world where common sense did not work.
“Is that really the reason…all of it?”
“Is there a need for a reason that isn’t everything?”
The angel’s expression seemed to be hiding quite a lot.
But I couldn’t ask.
“There are other reasons, but they just can’t tell you.”
In the hand of the angel who reached out into the air, a spear with a very sacred atmosphere appeared and radiated light.
“If it’s this way, I can tell you.”
“It’s done. We fight to protect, not to take away.”
“Hey… that’s a very, very nice word. So, have all the questions been answered?”
“Then what will happen next? Are the demons still appearing?”
That was the most important issue.
If demons continue to flood every 10 minutes like now, one day it will become too large to handle.
“That is something we cannot afford. It’s been a while since the place where the demons were kept is full.”
“How many are there?”
“I don’t know, these demons reproduce in captivity.”
During the conversation between Richie and the angel, Sunghyun interrupted.
“Isn’t it enough to kill me? Why are you sending them away?”
In response to Seong-hyun’s question, the angel smiled and lowered the spear in his hand once to the floor.
“If you want to know why, you are always welcome.”
For a moment, Seonghyeon judged this angel and his level.
How different is it?
No, am I the only one who makes a difference?
Whether the angel also understood Seonghyeon’s gaze, he added.
“If I lose, you will hear why. However, the demons that are now imprisoned will pour out into your world in an instant. And you can’t get out of here. I am also doing the connection between your world and this place.”
From the moment I first stepped into the door, the outcome was decided.
“…okay. If so, is it possible to negotiate enough to send out demons at a fixed time?”
At Richie’s question, the angel showed a very satisfied smile.
“I thought humans were pretty stupid, but they are smarter than I thought. So, how many cycles do you want?”
Richie seemed to seek the opinions of other top hunters.
He could do it his own way, but he didn’t.
When we coordinated the timing with the other top hunters and informed the angel, the angel nodded as well.
“If that’s the case, it’s not bad. When you guys leave this place, let’s start right away.”
What was negotiated was simple.

Making an exit right next to the first-class door that originally existed, and sending a demon out once a month.
“Isn’t it kind of a good deal for you guys to use the by-products from killing demons too? Oh, and I want you to keep this conversation a secret, except for the people here.”
After leaving behind the angelic smile, which seemed to have a lot to hide, all the top hunters came out the door.
Since 30 minutes had not passed yet, the remaining top level hunters were guarding the door, and other reporters appeared behind them.
“Things are over. The gate will be flooded with magical beasts every month from now. The location is where the existing first-class door is.”
In the world of Hunters, it was quite shocking.
It’s because there’s another first-class door that hasn’t appeared in decades.
But in the US it was the other way around.
Could there be anything better than this?
Previously, the first-class doors were monopolized, but another first-class door appeared.
“Hunter Kim Seong-hyun. Let’s talk for a moment.”
Seonghyeon, who was about to start subjugating the third-class door again, nodded at Richie’s request.
“It is.”
Rich’s guild building near the current gate.
Richie, who sat first, looked at Sunghyun and asked.
“Hunter. Do you plan to maintain that attitude in the future?”
“You mean my attitude?”
“To be honest, Hunter-sama should be thankful for not disclosing the escape during the first-class gate subjugation.”
“When was the last time I told you not to disclose it?”
“Hunter Kim Seong-hyun!”
At Seonghyeon’s uncooperative attitude, Richie sighed, clasping his forehead with one hand.
“You seem to be referring to the case of Padron, but I have no feelings for Padron.”
“But why…”
“First of all, you have shown such an attitude, aren’t you just telling me to be patient?”
“That’s… Hunter, please understand. I’m telling you that even asking for a separate conversation with Hunter like this doesn’t change Padron’s personality. Padron is already hostile to Hunter-sama.”
Richie really seemed to want the unity of the Hunters.
Regardless of how strong Richie is, even with the title of World No.
“…All right. However, I am not a very patient person, so I would be grateful if Hunter-sama coordinates it well.”
“But I’m glad that Hunter-sama seems to get along.”
Rich sighed a sigh of relief that was different from the sigh he had just exhaled and extended his hand to Seonghyeon.
“And tell me if you need anything. If you need my strength, just tell me.”
Richie’s words made me laugh out loud.
If you look at Richie’s attitude, it seems that he already sees himself as a weak hunter for a while, but strangely, he didn’t feel bad.
“I’ve heard a lot of people asking for strength, but this is the first time I’ve heard that they would give me strength.”
“ah…”
In addition to Sunghyun’s self-helpful laughter, Richie immediately realized that there was a slight bitter expression on his face.
Sung-hyun wasn’t overconfident in his abilities.
The owner of the only healing power that does not know what kind of threat may come.
He wasn’t supposed to be seen as funny to others, and he wasn’t supposed to be seen easily.
‘You can’t think of it as a general top-level hunter.’
Since the texture of their abilities was different, the attitude they had to take and their position would have been completely different from those of other hunters.
“I was short thinking.”
“yes?”
“I didn’t think well of Hunter’s position. sorry.”
“As Padron said, you are very considerate.”
Who would bow their head to the Hunter who they thought was weaker than themselves?
“Actually, I am well aware of Hunter-sama’s deeds. I’m sorry if I think I’m being sane, but I actually think it’s great just to be sane.”
Who would use their powers to feel the pain of others instead?
“Hunter-sama seems to value harmony between hunters the most.”
“Probably so. Because you never know when the day when the first-class door will mutate will come. Even today, a new first-class door appeared. So, what kind of goals do you have, Hunter?”
“The extinction of all beasts.”
Richie was startled by Seonghyeon’s expression of a momentary movement.
It was the expression of a person who seemed to have lost something precious to the beasts.
“The beast…extinction.”
It was a look on his face that he hadn’t thought of at all.
In fact, among the top hunters right now, is there really a hunter who wishes for the extinction of beasts?
The moment the existence of the beast disappeared, the highest level hunter was only a danger with unnecessarily strong power.
“I have not changed so far, and will continue to do so in the future.”
“As you can see today… Beasts are not simply beings that come from one place. It must be something that transcends multiple dimensions.”
“The numbers have only increased, but my goals have not changed.”
In an instant, Richie’s gaze on Seonghyeon changed.
There was no change in what he thought was weak, but it was the expression of the first person he had seen who kept his beliefs so upright.
“Hunter-sama…I support you.”
“So do I.”
Rich admitted that he had misunderstood Sung-hyun.
Regardless of the degree of strength, Seong-hyeon was not someone who believed in only his abilities and installed them.
It’s just that the thoughts themselves are different from other hunters.
“I will protect Hunter-sama.”
“…Yes?”
It was an unexpected offer.
In fact, Sunghyun’s current level was not at the level that someone needed to protect.
Because Manager Cha also had faith in him, the variable that would happen to his family was close to zero.
In fact, Richie’s proposal did not bring much benefit to Seonghyeon.
Because protection and surveillance are the same thing.
“Then, I will be grateful.”
However, while Seong-hyun remained in the United States, he did not know when he would face such people as Padron or Padron again, and the vice president would not let Sung-hyun, who held his weakness, stand still.
“I misunderstood Hunter-sama all this time.”
“no.”
It seemed that the misunderstanding had not yet been broken.
Because I was looking at Seonghyeon as if it were broken glass.
“Then you will continue to subdue only level 3 gates?”
“That’s true, but I’m worried about subjugating the second-class door.”
“Are you okay by yourself?”
It was Seonghyun who set the shortest record for subjugating a second-class door, but Richie didn’t seem interested in such things.
eyes full of concern.
Richie was a person who showed emotions clearly on his face, not fitting the name of being number one in the world.
“Well, why don’t you try it yourself?”
“To recommend more than this seems to be ignoring Hunter-sama. I wish you all the best in the future.”
“thank you.”
Even when we first started talking, I thought he was making a similar threat, but Richie wasn’t like that.
It was very different from any stupid hunter who had only power, values, and beliefs.
“Then let’s go. You have to keep practicing.”
“Yes, and this is my direct number, so if you have any problems, please call me right away.”
“All right. And this is my gift.”
“This…”
An unidentified liquid in Seonghyeon’s hand.
I’ve never actually seen it, but it was definitely an elixir.
“It’s a bribe to look after you. It will be useful someday.”
“Thank you.”
As if there were really no expectations, Richie looked quite surprised.
“Then let’s go.”
Seonghyun turned around and Richie looked at the Elixir in his hand.
“He’s a strange person.”
Weak, but with strong convictions.
Richie’s impression of Seong-hyeon hardened like this.
