“Now that she’s reached L-class, she probably thinks there won’t be much danger. She let her guard down and ventured into the Labyrinth alone. That’s how kids are these days, thinking they’re invincible.”

While Song Hanna didn’t appear intoxicated, it was clear that she had a lot on her mind. Speaking about such matters openly must have been challenging given her position. Jang Inhu listened attentively, offering a sympathetic ear like an old friend.

“My children hold Headbang in high regard. They admire her for fearlessly stepping forward like a true hero.”

“They have grown up remarkably well indeed. Seora and Jaeheon have turned out to be outstanding individuals.” Song Hanna smiled once again, displaying her happiness without a trace of disappointment. Witnessing this, Jang Inhu couldn’t help but join in her laughter. Even though they weren’t her own children, receiving praise for them must’ve brought her immense joy.

“If possible, I would like to have a meal with all three of the L-class Hunters. They are about to enter the Labyrinth for the sake of the world, so I want to show them my appreciation.”

Being a Hunter was no ordinary occupation. They were modern-day heroes who protected the world from monsters and were revered as such. However, the reality of being a hero was far different from what was portrayed in movies or media. Strong individuals, especially those of S-class and L-class, were not just selfless characters who sacrificed without seeking personal gain.

Human will couldn’t be controlled, and they could choose to turn their backs on the world at any moment. Therefore, as the president who prioritized the safety of the citizens above all else, it was crucial to respect and support these powerful individuals who maintained peace in the world.

“I will definitely relay your message. If it’s a fine and delicious meal, they won’t refuse.”

“Hahaha! I’ll find a fantastic restaurant then. If there’s anything the three of them need, please don’t hesitate to inform me. I’ll take care of it. By the way, what have they been up to lately?”

“I’m not sure about Hunter Kang or Hunter Seong, but Hunter Yun is currently looking for a new house. Her current residence has been exposed to the reporters.”

“I see, that’s to be expected.”

“She’s been humming the ‘Han River View Penthouse’ tune.”

“Haha, everyone dreams of having their ideal home. I hope she finds a wonderful one. Now, let’s have another drink.”

Song Hanna accepted the glass of rice wine poured by Jang Inhu and thought about her niece.

As a working woman in a capitalist society, her niece immediately requested paid leave upon their return. Since they had successfully cleared a Level 1 Dungeon, Song Hanna naturally approved the vacation for both her niece and Do Junyeong.

Unlike Do Junyeong, who was still recovering from the mental strain, Yun Seora seemed full of energy as she embarked on the search for her new home.

Song Hanna couldn’t help but wonder if Seora would be able to find the house she desired. She felt a slight concern, but if Seora encountered any difficulties, she would use her connections to assist her if needed.

***

However, Song Hanna’s concerns were utterly insignificant. With an abundance of wealth, there should be no difficulties in acquiring anything.

“Oh my…! Th-th-this, how much is all this…!?” exclaimed Seora in astonishment.

Upon receiving news of the reward from the Japan Dungeon, Seora absentmindedly opened her banking app and momentarily thought her eyes were deceiving her.

One zero, two, three, four… Hahaha, had she miscounted?

Again, one, two, three, four, five…

“Life truly has its moments, doesn’t it…?” Seora mused.

The reward from the Cheorwon Dungeon was also substantial. However, the difference from before was that Seora had single-handedly contributed the most to this raid, having defeated the Phantom Overlord alone. Moreover, she had received proper compensation for saving the Japanese Hunter who was on the brink of death.

The amount of money she had amassed was three times the domestic reward amount.

Overwhelmed by the sudden turn of events in her life, Seora knelt down on both knees. Lillelujah, may the administrator’s blessings continue.

Life as an L-class Hunter was quite favorable. If she could continue like this until retirement… it would be perfect!

“Oh, wait. Come to think of it, is there any need to retire?”

She had no intention of retiring and joining a guild. Becoming a cog in a guild or a miserable civil servant in the association seemed equally unappealing, so why bother joining a guild?

However, when it came to the association, it was easier to receive overseas requests compared to the guild. If any inconveniences arose, she could easily navigate them with Song Hanna and Do Junyeong’s connections.

With these thoughts in mind, wouldn’t it be fine to become the association’s member and enjoy the benefits?

“Great. It’s perfect,” she affirmed.

Deciding to share this good news with Song Hanna, Seora first logged into the item shop. She planned to sell the items acquired from Mount Taebek, Cheorwon, and Japan Dungeons, eagerly anticipating the increase in her bank account balance.

From the magic stones found in the Lava Zone, ideal for crafting flame-type weapons and armor, to the leather, claws, and teeth obtained by defeating Cerberus, and the Phantom Robes suitable for stealth-type equipment, each item sold well, bringing her great satisfaction.

Moreover, when she auctioned off rare drops like the Phantom’s Core and the Phantom Overlord’s Chain, which enhanced the mental barrier, the numbers in her account skyrocketed at an astonishing rate!

“Elizabeth, let’s rejoice. We’re accumulating funds to create our luxurious nest…!”

Kyaung! With his tail wagging beside Seora, Elizabeth responded with a joyful expression.

Hahaha! It was incredibly satisfying to no longer have to hide her true identity and easily sell items. While she still disliked drawing too much attention, the allure of money made it something she could tolerate. Money truly was the best.

Squish. Elizabeth tapped her on the shoulder with his paw.

Intrigued, Seora checked and discovered several notes through the shop. However, it wasn’t just one or two. The contents were quite similar.

“Sponsorship?”

Due to the items related to lava and those exclusive to the Phantom Overlord, most people had realized that the seller was Headbang. Clever item creators wasted no time and sent sponsorship proposals in abundance.

It was customary for renowned Hunters to receive requests to wear sponsored items during dungeon raids in exchange for free merchandise.

“It would be nice to use them for free, but…”

Seora wondered if there would be anything suitable for her to use in the Labyrinth. In her F-class days, she had no connection to this kind of thing and was completely clueless.

〖”Why worry when I’m here?”〗

By now, even the sudden voice that appeared like this had become somewhat familiar. Feeling a slight itch in her ears, she scratched them.

“Can you help?”

〖”Finding something suitable for you to use is not a problem for me.”〗

Indeed, there had been occasions before when he had shown her exactly the items she needed from the shop.

“Then please do. Meanwhile, I’ll continue diligently searching for our new haven.”

Yip!

“…Do you realize how strange it is for you to suddenly switch from speaking in a dignified voice to crying like a fox?”

No, I don’t realize. As if to express that sentiment, the fox nestled its face against Seora’s body.

Ha. Well, what’s the big deal? My baby looks so adorable like this!

Seora tightly hugged Elizabeth as he worked his charms. As the days went by, she found herself growing increasingly fond of the administrator.

***

The following day, Seora set off on a journey of thirty thousand leagues to fulfill her long-held desire for a Han River view penthouse.

She was determined to thoroughly examine each option and find the most perfect place…

Surprisingly, she was able to smoothly secure the best house possible. It was all thanks to the real estate agent, who happened to be a family member of one of the victims of the Cheorwon Dungeon.

“I wouldn’t spare anything for a benefactor! I’m actually grateful that I can offer something!” he exclaimed, presenting Seora with a hidden secret weapon. It was the Han River view she had yearned for, and even among such views, it was the most exclusive property that was difficult to obtain even with ample money.

The elegant interior of the top-floor penthouse instantly captivated Seora’s heart.

“The Han River view from my own home is even more breathtaking than what I saw at Seong Jarim’s! Elizabeth, do you like it too?”

Having moved in ten days before entering the Labyrinth, Seora had spent the past few days busy exploring her new home. Especially at night, the view of the Han River was truly magnificent. Elizabeth wagged his tail happily, seemingly expressing his satisfaction.

“Once all the furniture is in place, it will be perfect.”

The only belongings Seora brought from her previous officetel were clothes and a laptop. The furniture didn’t fit, and she had plans to switch to a king-size bed during this opportunity.

I’m finally achieving my dream!

Just then, the doorbell rang, announcing the arrival of a visitor. It was Kang Sejun.

“Oh, someone’s here.”

“You sang the penthouse song, and now you’ve finally made it inside.”

“Isn’t it cool? It feels like we could film a drama called ‘Penthouse’ right away, don’t you think?”

“It sounds more like a melodramatic drama where everyone kills each other.”

“Why are you saying such absurd things? How can we shoot a cruel drama with such a high-class name like ‘Penthouse’?”

They brought their share of the difference and sat on the sofa, while Elizabeth cheekily occupied Seora’s lap. He showed no intention of leaving, so Seora let him be.

“What did you want to talk about? Do you want to hear about the 8th floor of the Labyrinth?”

“Well, that’s certainly important, but there’s something even more significant. When Director Do had a nightmare, I saw some scenes in his dream. He doesn’t know about it.”

“You saw a nightmare created by the monster’s ability? Even though you weren’t directly affected? Does that mean you interfered with the Phantom Overlord’s ability?”

“Perhaps it’s because of his ability,” Seora replied as she stroked the fox that Kang Sejun discreetly eyed. “We’re connected through a contract, so I’m considering whether the impact of the director’s nightmares being torn apart by it also affected me.”

“Is that even possible?”

“That’s the only explanation that makes sense.”

Furthermore, due to the dual contract, their synchronization had progressed even further. With the two contracts, their relationship had grown deeper, making such a miracle highly possible.

“…Well, considering that you have already created multiple unbelievable things, I suppose anything is possible,” Kang Sejun admitted.

“Is that a compliment?”contemporary romance

“It’s a compliment.”

Though it didn’t sound like one, Seora decided to let it slide since it wasn’t important at the moment. “Anyway, what I saw is what matters. It was a quite shocking sight, which is why I called you.”

“What does the director’s nightmare have to do with me?”

“Why wouldn’t it? You’re the only one who remembers the events of the lost time in this world.”

Kang Sejun’s face momentarily stiffened.

“You never explained in detail how you saw my brother and aunt after I died, did you?”

“…”

“Is it possible that after my brother killed Park Jinyong and committed suicide, Auntie was devastated by losing both of us at the same time, leading her to bring destruction upon Seoul?”

Kang Sejun tightly closed his eyes.

Witnessing that sight, Seora’s heart sank, plunging downward. Her fingertips trembled, and color drained from her face.
