Deep night shadow.
Exactly the nickname referring to this body.
At the time first awakening ability, this body possessed conviction of able to exert more influence in espionage activity than going around dungeon.
Soon such this body’s prediction hit, and becoming terrifying mercenary making name in the shade.
Then one day European Awakener Union side extending hand. Request of becoming spy belonging to Union.
Conditions also not bad so interests matching we immediately concluding contract. After that this body continuously secretly active on Union side and ultimately able to obtain even the first nickname.
Mission success rate 100%!
Industry’s legend!
Great spy never coming out again!
That exactly this body.
...Clearly so.
‘How on earth sensed invisibility? Invincible ability making even scent of course and presence invisible??!’
Clearly own invisibility properly working.
But caught by unidentified small person.
But still!
Another weapon this body able to raise fame.
That exactly partner’s poison.
Hard to apply but if only applied powerful weapon able to paralyze even grade 8 awakener!
Weapon matching well with this body’s invisibility ability. If only secretly applying through invisibility everyone unable to move!
‘Taking the gap of carelessness...!’

What situation this on earth?
Tag? No, what person arising in the air suddenly?
Then someone caught by Ara holding something in hand and spraying. Exactly spray like sprayer but Ara just liking kyaruk.
“Moist!”
“Why fine?! Paralysis poison!!”
Person babbling English and surprised. Looking now foreigner.
“A, Ara. Just in case hold and see. Suspicious person!”
“Suspicious person?!”
Ara’s appearance shocked at the fact not tag.
Opponent whether physical ability inferior to Ara unable to budge. Something seeming in the spray sprayed in the middle but completely not affecting Ara.
For now contacting guild first.
Anyway the person Ara caught seeming awakener.
Contacting guild master a bit so calling the staff who always in charge of me when delivering.
-Received call, Mr. Gyuseong! What matter?
“A, sorry late time. Not particular but now caught one suspicious awakener near my dungeon.”
-...Suspicious, awakener?
* * *
Emergency in Ara Hongryeon.
No, not only Ara Hongryeon but Awakener Headquarters and even Iron Blood and Terror Guild news conveyed and commotion.
Lee Gyuseong attacked!
Of course too ambiguous to see as attack but news distorted and causing tremendous ripple.
“Immediately awakener special forces sortie! Immediately!! Mobilize all available forces now!”
Director Jeon Yeongju packing luggage preparing to get off work face bright red. His hands trembling with anger seeming about to smash the phone holding right away.
“Don’t know who but touched wrong...!”
Grit!
Not only Jeon Yeongju but other staff who barely finished work and preparing to get off work also full of anger.
They as headquarters staff mobilizing all connections stacked until now and contacting here and there.
“Director! Iron Blood departed now said!”
“Terror also soon departing said!”
At the news conveyed one after another Jeon Yeongju also shouting.
“Me also go! Who daring to touch?! What guy me directly interrogate!”
“Me also go together, director!”
“Me too!”
The trio who obtained and ate rice from Gyuseong immediately sortie. And around the car they boarded awakener special forces vehicles following.
Controlling even roads using public power.
Even if cursed later have to confirm if Lee Gyuseong safe first.
Soon whether effort shining able to arrive at Gyuseong’s dungeon in less than 20 minutes.
And able to confirm various vehicles already spread all around.
“Control the site!”
“Yes!”
Leaving surroundings to two team leaders Jeon Yeongju running inside hurriedly. Then able to face familiar faces.
“A, director.”
First Ara Hongryeon’s guild master, Han Seokjun.
He unlike usual soft expression coldly sunk.
And Ara Hongryeon’s executives visible beside him.
1 team leader and 2 team leader of course all team leaders and deputy team leader level personnel gathered.
“A, awakener Lee Gyuseong fine?!”
“Fortunately safe.”
“I, injured place?”
“None.”
Huu.
Jeon Yeongju exhaling sigh of relief and examining surroundings again.
‘Iron Blood’s Baek Taeseop, Bloodborne Kim Taeyang!’
Knowing heard Lee Gyuseong connection with Iron Blood but completely not expecting Iron Blood representative directly coming in this night.
But that seeming same for the opponent surprised looking at Jeon Yeongju.
“Director Jeon Yeongju?”
“A, representative Baek Taeseop. Long time.”
“Hehe. To see in such place. Really long time.”
Person usually secluded so Jeon Yeongju also not easily able to see person Baek Taeseop. Looking now his son and other executive level personnel also came visible.
‘Heueo...’
Until now not only caring Awakener Headquarters but able to know other giant guilds all caring Lee Gyuseong.
“A! Culprit? Where culprit?”
“Now binding and preparing police escort.”
“Hmm!”
Jeon Yeongju nodding and saying.
“We escort. Then more you able to involve than police taking.”
“Please.”
Jeon Yeongju immediately using full authority and receiving the suspect’s person from police. Police side also no choice but to hand over unable to refuse the order of Awakener Headquarters director, no less vice minister level personnel.
“Haha, haha...”
While receiving and handing the suspect, Lee Gyuseong awkwardly smiling far visible.
“Awakener Gyuseong! How, body fine!!”
“A! Di, director also came. Busy because of me...”
“No! Heard news of Mr. Gyuseong attacked but unable to stay still!”
“Th, lo, yes...”
Gyuseong awkwardly scratching head and losing words. Looking at expression seeming very troubled.
“Mr. Gyuseong, by any chance something happened? A! Come to think of it Ara not visible! Ara fine!?”
“Me here!”
Ara far meeting knowing people and fully excited waving hands. Then why Gyuseong wearing troubled color.
“Actually thinking not particular matter and conveying news but not knowing this many people coming.”
“Not particular matter! Mr. Gyuseong attacked!”
“A, that... Not attacked but just Ara caught the person hiding and suspicious so reported.”
“Even so of course matter to come see! Daring to secretly hide in Mr. Gyuseong’s residence! No matter thinking only thought impure intention!”
At Jeon Yeongju’s reaction Gyuseong shedding cold sweat. Gyuseong finally sensing whatever saying heated reaction coming.
And actually even not knowing the identity of the foreigner hiding impure intention suspicious no choice.
“Director!”
Then team leader Park Suyeon approaching and saying.
“Powerful paralysis component poison discovered in the spray the suspect possessed!”
“Th, th, th daring...!”
Di, director.
Why director angrier than me.
Lee Gyuseong looking at Jeon Yeongju face red hot yet unable to say anything. That much feeling thinking of self so thankful too.
“Mr. Gyuseong fine? Spray had use trace.”
“Yes? Yes. Me fine.”
If Gyuseong directly hit by poison unable to resist but unfortunately the opponent Ara.
Immune to all poisons. Diamond indestructible.
Ara possessing all kinds of monster like abilities.
Moreover physical ability also equal level to high awakener so ordinarily no matter of Gyuseong injured.
Able to call very reliable bodyguard.
“Uh, moment... then?”
Gyuseong turning head with anxious expression.
Jeon Yeongju and Park Suyeon wondering why and looking together at the direction Gyuseong seeing...
“Uh? What! Why collapsed?”
“Eh? People here all hardening?”
People who rubbed cheeks with Ara starting to collapse.
“...”
“Heueo.”
Even among them Hanul called predator and Bloodborne Kim Taeyang who touched Ara’s cheek.
Powerful poison paralyzing even grade 7, 8 awakeners. And Ara the source of all that tilting head then soon collapsing self with a thud.
“Collapsing play. Kek.”
“...”
People losing words.
And Gyuseong belatedly saying.
“Th, paralysis poison stuck on Ara’s face. Not knowing poison but knew now. Don’t worry! Many antidotes at home so...”
Paralysis poison on Ara’s face?
But why Ara fine?
Not only physical ability excellent?
* * *
Bringing antidote and detoxifying all the hardened people. Matter arising due to Ara so not separately receiving compensation.
“Aa, younger brother Gyuseong. Me still paralysis not fully released seeming. Have to drink more antidote...”
“Hyung. Will give other food so don’t worry. Since came eat simple snack.”
“Ooh! Paralysis better seeming! Uahahaha!”
Hyung Hanul suddenly detoxified with a few words bursting large laughter. Yet casually throwing gaze to my back.
Behind me unidentified foreigner loaded on awakener special forces vehicle.
“Hehe. Don’t worry, younger brother. We will find out even how many panties the guy possesses.”
“That not particularly curious though...”
Finishing conversation joking with hyung Hanul this time other people gathering and saying one each.
Quite moved that all ran worried about me.
“Fine? Hurt?”
“Fine, Ara. Thanks to ate carrot juice deliciously.”
Ara hugged in Jeong Soyeon’s arms touching face with worried face. Looking at that appearance then soon facing director Jeon Yeongju who roughly organized.
“For now will place security near here. Place special forces members in shift work form.”
“A, that too nuisance and burdensome so fine declining?”
“Heu, heum...”
“Anyway opponent also failed once so not doing strange again forcibly. Rather not highlighting wariness more?”
“Understood. For now no escort at government level.”
Escort at government level?
Something nuance strange so looking beside Han Seokjun looking at special forces vehicle with cold eyes.
...Protection at guild level may exist.
“For now interrogate and share to Mr. Gyuseong as soon as information coming out.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
Indeed who? Why near my dungeon?
Certainly curious.
Cases of awakeners carelessly using ability rare yet using such secret ability to me...
* * *
Shanghai China.
Guest at Macheonru Guild.
“Hmm, wanting to receive information about seven deadly sins?”
“Will definitely pay that much price.”
Ryu Wangjin looking at the European Union figure who found self and casually smiling.
Recently European Union’s signs of stirring here and there unusual. Now Union side figures openly roaming without even thought of hiding.
But never able to ignore.
Power of European Awakener Union with over 20 grade 8 awakeners. Moreover if combining capital power and talents under that power able to look down even giant awakening powers.
“Listen to what price and decide.”
“Not disappointed!”
European Union side figure buying favor with fluent Chinese.
Then someone urgently knocking the reception room door.
Even knowing all guild members welcoming important guest yet knocking door like this something unusual.
“Wait a moment?”
“Of course.”
Ryu Wangjin immediately letting the one who knocked the door in. Soon the figure entering taking out tablet and showing to Ryu Wangjin.
Action of confirming with document not conveying with words intentional strange.
“Um...”
Ryu Wangjin’s expression gradually hardening confirming the content written on tablet. The curiosity of the Union side figure watching that appearance also gradually enlarging.
Soon Ryu Wangjin confirming all content gesturing and the secretary who brought tablet leaving.
“By, serious matter?”
“...”
Ryu Wangjin silently glaring at the Union side figure.
At his sudden action the Union side figure without knowing shedding cold sweat and waiting.
“Transaction postpone for now.”
“Yes, yes?”
“Go in and rest.”
At the firm expulsion order the Union side figure blank with wide eyes then soon standing from seat and lowering head and leaving.
And Ryu Wangjin remaining alone spitting words as if chewing with forehead veins protruding.
“These guys daring... crazy.”
The situation Gyuseong thought nothing gradually enlarging.
