FunTranscript
00:07A mystical potion that cures all diseases.
00:16It's magic, so there's a decent chance that includes eternal sleep.
00:21It only takes three ingredients to craft this elixir of life.
00:24And while I don't have any of them yet, I do know exactly where they are.
00:30But, going back to that castle as I am now is a death wish.
00:34I need to level up more.
00:38Stronger.
00:39I need to get stronger.
00:43You're saying you accept them?
00:45I'm saying things have changed.
00:47Raiding a handful of C-ranked dungeons could benefit me, so I'm in.
00:50Yes! Yes!
00:52That's if you agree to one condition.
00:54Sure, name whatever your heart desires and it's yours!
00:57No strike team, only you and I go in.
01:01Uh...
01:01You want the two of us to clear 19 C-ranked dungeons by ourselves?
01:06So do we have a deal?
01:08Uh, we can't do it.
01:10Every C-ranked raid requires a minimum of eight hunters to even step through the gate.
01:15We'll take a page out of Dong So Kuang's book.
01:17Pay people to meet the quota while we do the work.
01:22I... I don't know. It's a little too risky.
01:25So think about it this way.
01:26Fewer people going in means less chance of casualties, and you know we can come out unscathed.
01:32Clearing 19 dungeons accident-free is huge.
01:34Uh...
01:35And since you're doing this to persuade your father, wouldn't a triumph like that help?
01:39It certainly wouldn't hurt.
01:43Boss, let's do it! 19 raids!
01:46Okay, I'll handle arranging gates and recruits.
01:48Hm.
01:49Come on.
02:23Come on.
02:49The world has changed at a dizzying pace.
02:53Infrastructure, the economy, media, and even politics.
02:57The dungeons have affected all of those in some shape or form.
03:01Take our infrastructure.
03:02It would appear the very foundation of our lives can no longer operate without the resources found in the gates.
03:09You hunters are the only ones able to retrieve those resources, you know.
03:14Then there's the Hunters Association.
03:16The government will continue to fund them as long as there are hunters to be overseen.
03:22After all, without the Association, who would assess the Hunters?
03:26How would they be ranked and registered?
03:28They manage gates that don't go to auction.
03:30They handle dungeon breaks.
03:33And yet the Association is nothing more than a function of the state.
03:37The ones who collect the majority of dungeon resources to keep our economy going are the guilds.
03:43Essentially a business that's been capitalizing on a market need.
03:46They're extremely wealthy because they struck while the iron was hot.
03:50And it's still burning.
03:51Just look at the Hunters Guild, the White Tiger Guild, the Reaper Guild, the Fame Guild, and the Knights Guild.
03:59The five largest in the country.
04:01They have a functional monopoly on all dungeon-related profits.
04:05Suits them fine, but I see no reason we should allow that to persist.
04:09Dungeon resources are important to everyday life.
04:12Simply leaving their collection to a group of mercenaries is out of the question.
04:16We've contributed so much to this country.
04:18Why stop now?
04:19We should handle the Sage of Dungeons, too.
04:23So we'll establish our own guild.
04:24You realize how crucial that is, right, son?
04:27I... yes, of course.
04:31All that may be true, but recruiting an S-rank hunter to act as my brother's business partner is such
04:36a dicey move.
04:38Especially when I'm right here.
04:54Looks like none of the extra reps count anymore.
04:58And that cursed random loot box I was offered for the secret quest isn't available now.
05:02The system only let me have one of the two.
05:05Man, there's a chance I could have gotten another item as valuable as the Demon's Castle key.
05:10But random loot boxes aren't all bad.
05:13I mean, the key to that instance dungeon came from one, so...
05:18Maybe...
05:19Maybe...
05:26Hmm...
05:26Maybe not.
05:30With my stats as high as they are now, three points aren't enough to make much difference anymore.
05:35Be nice if I still had an efficient way to level up.
05:37Those C-rank raids will help, but I gotta wait on Jin-ho.
05:42Oh yeah, the Penalty Zone.
05:44I can fight that Centipede and...
05:46No.
05:47I'd have an easier time running from that thing now, but beating it?
05:50And what if I don't gain experience, because it's a punishment?
05:56They need hunters for a D-rank gate?
05:59The biggest pro is that it's a good chance to level up.
06:02But then the con is that I'd be fighting with a strike team.
06:05Should I pass?
06:09Beggars can't be choosers.
06:15This is frustrating.
06:26You're too good.
06:27I didn't stand a chance.
06:30Sure you did, but I'm not ready to lose.
06:32I wish you were still at your best.
06:35To fight you in your prime would be an honor.
06:36Come on.
06:37It's been a few months now.
06:39When are you gonna stop fretting over my arm?
06:41Huh?
06:44Another emergency summons.
06:46Low ranks get a lot of these for what amounts to running errands.
06:49But you answer.
06:50Is retiring completely out then?
06:52Me retire?
06:57I see your point.
06:58Not only am I getting up there in age, I've got a missing limb to hold me back.
07:02No!
07:03That's not what I meant, Master.
07:04Well, I only lost my arm when I could have lost my life.
07:07Even though my best years are long gone, I'd really like to spend whatever time I have left helping people
07:12out.
07:20My next raid request came in.
07:23You know, honey, isn't it about time you considered a career besides hunting?
07:29Not this again.
07:30It's so dangerous.
07:32How many people died in that one raid before?
07:34And how close were you to dying right along with them?
07:38I guess pretty close.
07:40Daddy, up, up!
07:41Eunji!
07:44I hear you, but Eunji is starting preschool and Eunha's going to middle school.
07:48So we need the money, don't we?
07:50I suppose, but...
07:51It'll be fine.
07:52The Association makes it a point not to send lower ranks into trickier dungeons.
07:57That one incident was just an exception.
08:00You're right.
08:01I'm sorry for making such a fuss.
08:03I get why you do, though.
08:05Please be careful, okay?
08:07Well, that's a given.
08:08You know I love you.
08:09Hey, Daddy.
08:10Yeah?
08:11What's going on?
08:12Are you strong?
08:13Like superheroes?
08:14Oh, you bet I am.
08:16Your daddy can beat up the scariest monsters you've ever seen.
08:19Wow, you're really, really, really strong, huh?
08:23You have got some damn nerve!
08:27Are you going to tell me why?
08:29Don't play dumb!
08:30You wasted my time and stuck me with that interview!
08:32I caught it, by the way.
08:34You made a very good impression, so bravo.
08:36I found your answers both insightful and sincere.
08:38Oh, take your empty flattery and shove it!
08:40You should just admit that interview was supposed to be for you, not me!
08:43Well, let's recap the offer made to Chairman Goh.
08:46Last I checked, they wanted a talented hunter who had great character.
08:49They also asked that he be dedicated to his job.
08:51With all that in mind, it doesn't sound like they wanted me, does it?
08:54At least you realize how sketchy you are.
08:57Oh, well.
08:58It's done.
08:59So, what's this about?
09:01I'm glad I got to tell you off.
09:03That can't be why you asked to speak in person.
09:05Look behind you and you'll see a detailed report about something I thought should be brought
09:08to your attention.
09:11Eugene Construction are getting ready to launch their own guild.
09:14I heard, and the moves they've been making are pretty underhanded.
09:17They've been headhunting at my guild.
09:19Then I suppose, since you already know, I have wasted your time twice in a row now.
09:24Yeah, well, I already know that you knew that I knew, so can we please cut the crap?
09:29I'll ask once more.
09:31What's this really about?
09:36You haven't called lately, so I'm glad I got a hold of you.
09:39Is everything okay?
09:42Work been good?
09:45Yeah.
09:46You've always been such a scaredy-cat, Jui.
09:48Makes it hard to picture you being a hunter.
09:51You're B-Rank, right?
09:53I know that's supposed to mean you're pretty strong,
09:55but wouldn't someone with your issues just get in the way?
09:58Come on back home and help run the family business.
10:01Your daddy's work-
10:02Look, my life isn't yours to control!
10:04I'm a grown woman who makes her own choices, so just throw it!
10:07What in the world is all this-
10:14I get in the way.
10:19But...
10:22I want to try.
10:24Just a bit longer.
10:54Pardon the intrusion.
10:57Hunter Heian-Chan, what can I do for you today?
11:00Nothing really, sir. I just want to let you know a scout from Eugene Construction offered me a job.
11:04Here's the card he gave me.
11:06I see.
11:07Apparently, they have plans to launch a new guild soon, and we're hoping I'd join them as their guildmaster, so...
11:14They have good taste, but I assume you're telling me this because you turned their offer down, right?
11:18Right. Without any hesitation, sir.
11:21Thanks for your loyalty. And honesty.
11:24Of course.
11:25Also, um... I noticed that President Beck was leaving your office as I was on my way in, sir.
11:30May I ask what brought him here?
11:40I'd like to know your honest thoughts regarding Jeju Island.
11:44Jeju Island? Why suddenly bring that up?
11:47Because it should be discussed, not sealed off and forgotten due to our failure.
11:51But only occasional reconnaissance is done from the shore, and the public receives a single annual update about any changes.
11:58People are trying to forget it all, to wipe the site and its horrors from their minds.
12:03Maybe, but you can't exactly blame them.
12:05I refuse. No matter how commonplace Gates may have become, or how much I get fawned over as the ultimate
12:11weapon of humanity,
12:12I will never, and I mean never, let the memory of Jeju slip away.
12:17I can't leave that island as it is, which is why I intend to clear it in the very near
12:20future.
12:21And to accomplish that, I need you and the others to be on the same page.
12:25We have to grow stronger, gather allies, and sway public opinion in our favor.
12:30Hence the interview and your push to train new hunters.
12:40I would think that you'd want to return to Jeju.
12:43Isn't there something you left behind?
12:53Unsuk, Byung-gu.
12:59I'll beg you, if that's what it takes.
13:03Just please kill them.
13:07I'm heading out.
13:08I can't believe you're working on a holiday.
13:11You sure keep busy lately.
13:14Yeah, I guess.
13:15What universe is this?
13:16You used to have some downtime after every gate because you would get injured.
13:20Is all that training paying off?
13:21Uh, probably.
13:23In any case, I have a stable income now.
13:26Be happy.
13:27Uh, okay.
13:29Hey, where's all your gear?
13:30Hello?
13:31Don't worry about it.
13:32See ya.
13:33Wait, what the?
13:37Not like it's just a trip to the convenience store.
13:43Since my awakening didn't affect my physical strength, my sword is useless against magical beasts.
13:48The martial arts I've spent decades refining don't really help my magic-based powers.
13:53A seasoned swordsman like myself becoming a mage hunter is quite a twist of fate.
13:57Surely there's a reason for it.
13:59Jinu?
14:02Jinu?
14:04Mr. Song.
14:05So it is you.
14:07Wow, I hardly recognize you.
14:08It has been a while, huh?
14:10What are the odds we just meet on the street?
14:12I gotta say, though, what happened to the gentle genu I used to know?
14:16It's only been a few short months, but you're like a new man.
14:20Especially since I recall you losing your right leg.
14:24I did, but when I woke up in the hospital, it was still there.
14:28Well, I heard the White Tigers found you.
14:30Bet you anything there was a high-ranked healer among them.
14:34Whatever the case.
14:35You have way too much life to live, so it's a relief you're healed.
14:38That's nice of you to say.
14:39I wish you weren't too.
14:41Oh, well.
14:42Maybe if I had gotten to a decent healer in time.
14:45But I've accepted it now.
14:47Anyway, chance meeting or not, I'm really glad I got to see you again.
14:50I've been wanting to ever since I heard you lived.
14:53Oh, so what brought you to this part of town?
14:55The association messaged me.
14:57Said it's urgent.
14:58I got the message, too.
15:09I'm coming.
15:10Oh.
15:11Now, how is that for a coincidence?
15:14This is quite the little reunion.
15:15him. You're really here. Chewie, hey. Look at that. The gang's all here. Of course they're
15:27ashamed. We escaped without lives, but sacrificed Jinu in order to do so. And Song Sheik also
15:34threatened me at sword point. No wonder he can't look me in the eye either. That aside,
15:39five of the six survivors being reunited like this makes you wonder. Oh my gosh. This is
15:45surreal. You are Jinu, aren't you? I am. I swear. Your leg looks like it was never severed
15:52and you're so tall. I guess you were okay the day I came to visit. You came to visit?
16:03We got a fine little lady in this group, fellas. Ditch that loser. Why not come get hot and
16:10heavy with me, baby? I know all kinds of games. Shut your dirty mouth.
16:17This isn't a play date.
16:21Hunters, if you step this way, I'll brief you on the unique circumstances of your raid
16:25today. Yeah, that'd be nice. You all will be accompanied by three prisoner substitute
16:29hunters who are out on good behavior. Substitute hunters? You expect us to fight alongside
16:34criminals? It's true they are convicted men. However, they're here to reduce their jail
16:38time so they shouldn't cause you grief. We've little choice in the matter due to the shortage
16:42of local hunters. Please understand. For crying out loud. You'll also be joined by an overseer
16:48from the association, Taishik Kang. He's B-ranked, so even in the worst-case scenario, he'll
16:52be able to handle three C-ranked criminals with ease. So you can rest assured.
16:59Something isn't right. Hey, maybe you should set this out, Chewie.
17:02Are you bailing too?
17:04No, I'm going.
17:08All right, then so am I.
17:12Fair enough.
17:14Damn, it's good to be free. Even if we gotta work for it.
17:17They're chaining us like animals. You're the good guys, sir. Why so evil?
17:21Shut up. You're chained because you're convicts. And you know what happens if you act up while
17:25the chains are off.
17:30As my associate previously mentioned, I'm Taishik Kang of the surveillance team. I'll be keeping
17:35an eye on those three throughout the raid, so you can relax. We'll need a leader, though.
17:40Do we have any volunteers?
17:42What do you say? Think you'd be willing to follow my lead again?
17:46Of course I would, sir.
17:49I appreciate you giving me this chance.
17:51You don't have to bow.
17:52No. On that day, seven people died because of me. The magnitude of my failure cannot be
17:58understated. But six of us did make it out because of you. So let me say this on behalf
18:03of all the survivors. I am so grateful to you.
18:08Mr. Song, stand up, please.
18:12And what about you, Sang-sheik? Do you care if I take the lead?
18:17If that's what you want, go ahead.
18:20Right.
18:25Well, it's settled.
18:26I volunteered to take point in today's raid.
18:29Thank you for your courage.
18:30Let's get underway, then.
18:39Brace yourselves, everyone.
18:41Here we go.
18:42Bracell säger.
18:43Bracell
