I Became a Swordsmanship Instructor at the Academy

(34)

I arrived at Jeju Airport and there are quite a lot of people.

“It’s full of buzz.”

“I think it’s because it’s the holiday season, but everyone came to play, right? envy.”

“I spoke to my uncle on the phone yesterday, and he said that the injured hunters would return after a while.

“Should I go to the guild first?”

“Yes. My cousin said that he would come to pick me up. I’ll call you.”

“I’ll go to the bathroom for a minute then.”

“Ah yes. Please.”

When I went to the bathroom, my younger brother said he was in the parking lot, so I followed Lee Seol.

“sister! It’s been a while. Oh, Seonhwa unnie? Are you here to help too?”

“yes. long time no see. how have you been doing?”

“how have you been doing? These are my sister’s colleagues. Have you seen Sunhwa before? This is teacher Kang Shin-hyeok who works at the Hunter School like Seon-hwa.”

“Hello, this is Kang Shin-hyuk.”

“My name is Yeseul Hong. But are you a real teacher?”

“Yes? Ah, yes.”

“You are so handsome. I thought you were a celebrity, not a teacher. You must be popular.”

“ah… Not really.”

“You must be older than me, so please speak comfortably.”

He has a refreshing appearance with slightly tanned skin, but his affinity seems to be just as good as his appearance.

“No. Kang Sam is popular, right?”

“Why not?”

“Hey, can we talk while driving? It’s too hot.”

“Oh, I’ll get the car right away. Please wait a moment.”

I arrived at the guild after driving for about 30 minutes in Yeseul’s car.

While coming to the guild, I was able to hear more details from Mr. Yeseul.

It is said that three ogres came out of the A-rank 10-man portal that was attacked last week.

It was barely cleared, but one death occurred and all the members of the team, including the deputy guild leader who was in charge of the team at the time, were said to have been seriously injured.

Among them, there were guild members who said they would retire, perhaps because they were shocked by the death of a colleague.

It’s a world where healing magic exists, so if you don’t die, you can heal, but magic can’t cure your mind.

I think things are very bad… You may be much busier than you thought.

“Mr. Kang?”

“Yes?”

“Aren’t you getting off?”

“Ah, get off.”

“After talking with my father, I will have dinner and take you to the lodging, so you can leave your luggage.”

“Ah yes.”

“You seem to have been somewhere else when you came here before. When did you move?”

“Wasn’t sister here the last time she came? It’s been about a year.”

Looking at the facilities, it looks like a newly built building.

It didn’t look that high, like the 10th floor, but the area was quite large.

“Is this whole guild building?”

“no. Our guild only uses floors 7 through 10.”

It was a guild that was not mentioned in the original work, so I thought it was just a small and medium guild, but it seems to be bigger than I thought.

When I arrived on the 10th floor by elevator, I saw a gray-haired man.

“My nephew! Welcome!”

“Daddy, how are you?”

“hello.”

“If I had been well, I wouldn’t have contacted you. Thank you for coming. It’s been a while since Seonhwa too. Is Mandong-nim good?”

“Yes. My father would have come if he had time, but he’s so busy… . He asked me to tell him he was sorry.”

“Thank you even from the bottom of my heart. Then, is this handsome gentleman Mr. Kang Shin-hyeok? you are handsome you can be a celebrity Nice to meet you, I am Hong Jong-sik, the guild leader of the Haerang Guild.”

“It is overrated. This is Kang Shin-hyeok.”

“It’s lunch time, everyone before dinner, right? Let’s go out to eat and talk… .”

“Dad, I have a lot of paperwork to deal with today, so where are you going to run away? I’ll treat you to a meal, so let’s talk in the office, right?”

“No, not at all… yes. We’ll talk inside.”

After a brief explanation of the current situation, the contract was drawn up.

There was nothing particularly different from what I heard about the situation, but the terms of the contract are much better than I thought.

It came at the request of Mr. Lee Seol, but usually when you belong to a guild, a certain portion of the profits are taken away as a commission.

Usually around 10%, large guilds take up to 20%, but Haerang Guild Leader suggested 5%.

It may seem absurd at first glance, but the portals assigned to guilds are large and profitable.

Unlike temporary raid groups, guilds have a somewhat systematic system and have a lot of experience, so they are much better in terms of safety.

It is not so unreasonable considering the various welfare benefits such as scholarships and loans for children as well as support for medical expenses in case of injury.

Accommodation and vehicles were provided, and Lee Seol was given a corporate card, telling him to buy anything he wanted to eat.

“Daddy, aren’t the conditions too generous?”

“Not anyone else, but my nephew came to help, but I have to do this much. To be honest, I was not going to take any fees, but that guy was extremely against it.”

“This time, the treatment cost was quite high and the loss was great.”

Mr. Yeseul smiles shyly and says, but it seems that he is quite deeply involved in guild affairs.

“no. 5% is nothing. We’re good, but are we really okay?”

“It’s fine. Anyway, if you fail to process more than a certain percentage of the portals you were assigned this month, you will be penalized for the next assignment.”

“Yes. Then, are the 10 B-class portals to target?”

“Yes. There will be three B-rank hunters and four C-rank hunters including myself. Your sister will take care of the team leader, right?”

“uh? That would be a bit difficult.”

“You have nothing to worry about. Unnie is the highest ranked and has the most recognition. I have told the guild members who will join in advance, so they will follow suit.”

“It’s not like that, when we originally attacked portals by ourselves, Shin Hyuk was the leader. I think it would be better for team leader Shin Hyuk to do it.”

Eh? Why are you giving it to me all of a sudden?

“I don’t care if Mr. Lee Seol does it.”

“Nephew, are you and Shin Hyuk like that?”

“Yes? What are you talking about? No!”

“no.”

“But why is Shin Hyuk the leader? As a rule, a leader should be a person with good skills and experience.”

Looking at the hunter rank alone, it’s not strange to think like a guild leader, but I feel ignored for some reason.

They don’t give extra money because they’re the leader, they just do it themselves.

“So. Shin Hyuk’s skills are much better than mine.”

“yes? Wasn’t Shin Hyuk a B rank?”

“Rank and skill are not necessarily proportional.”

“That, is it? My nephew is not the type to admit others easily… Shin Hyuk seems to have great skills. But Lee Seol already told me that you would be the team leader… .”

I mean, don’t you stop doing it again?

It seems that he can’t trust me.

“I really don’t care. Since Lee Seol suggested it anyway, Lee Seol will do it, right?”

“No.”

“My thoughts are the same as Seol. Since Mr. Kang has been our leader until now, I think it would be better for Mr. Kang to be the team leader.”

“Hmm. Teacher Kang, which guild were you in before going to school?”

Why did you suddenly investigate the hogu?

“It’s the Chase Guild.”

“You must have come from one of the most prestigious guilds. I also know a few people on the Chase side… What team were you on?”

“Daddy, what are you doing now?”

“No, Seol I know you, but Shin Hyuk doesn’t know. In order to be the team leader, you need to know a certain amount of information… .”

“Before I came to school, I was dispatched abroad and worked as a solo artist.”

The guild leader frowned.

“From what I’ve heard, solos in Chase are newcomers or hunters with a little lack of skills… .”

“Not all of them.”

Kang Shin-hyeok’s solo career was because he was from a non-hunter school, not because he lacked ability.

Setting aside everything else, even before learning martial arts, I passed the highly competitive Hunter School teacher test at once.

I’ve seen signs of it since before, but it seems I’ve been ignoring it.

“Little Daddy! What are you really doing?”

“You don’t know how important a leader is in a team. Our guild members could get hurt.”

I know that being a leader is important, but isn’t it a bit awkward to say these things in front of the person concerned?

I was trying to get over it, but I was getting annoyed.

“Guild leader, aren’t you exaggerating?”

“uh? No, I… .”

“Since a while ago, you seemed to be subtly ignoring Mr. Kang, but I’m offended by everything. I wasn’t going to say such a thing, but there’s no one in the Haerang Guild more capable than Mr. Kang, right?”

there… Mr. Kim?

I was ignored, but Mr. Kim made a sudden move.

The atmosphere in the office suddenly froze.

“Shin Hyuk, I’m sorry if you were offended. But Miss Seonhwa, I can’t just ignore the remark I just made. On what basis do you say that?”

“Isn’t that what I said without reason? Is there anyone in the Haerang Guild who can catch an ogre alone?”

“What is that… .”

“Mr. Kang caught the Ogre by himself. Lee Seol, you saw it yourself.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“There was a time when I had a sparring with my father at school, and even then it was pretty close.”

“Mr. Kim, that’s not it. In Dalian, the vice principal took care of the situation, so there was a handicap in the first place, and the result was my defeat.”

“That’s what Daddy did. I don’t think Mr. Kang lost.”

Both the guild leader and Mr. Yeseul were quite surprised.

“Since I really don’t care, Lee Seol-ssi is the leader.”

“No. I made a mistake. It would be nice if Shin Hyuk was the team leader.”

I thought he might ask for a duel because he didn’t believe me, but he seems to be quick to admit it.

“All right. Then, as the team leader, may I ask you a favor?”

“Ah yes. Feel free to say anything.”

“You said earlier that you would add 7 more people, but I don’t think you will need up to 7 people.”

If it is a 10-person B-class portal, there is no problem in legally entering if there are five B-rank hunters.

If there are too many people, the profit will be reduced for no reason.

Usually, the profit from attacking portals is distributed according to the contribution unless it is pre-determined like we did, but you cannot get all the profits from the monsters you captured.

There are hunters who specialize in recovery or assistance like Mr. Kim, and there are many cases where they are caught together.

“It’s nice to hear that we, Hunter, are in a position where we feel sorry for each other. What about the number of people?”

“I think Yeseul-ssi would be enough for two B-rank hunters.”

To be honest, I think it would be enough to have just two B-rank hunters, but there is a possibility that the same problem as before will arise if you are with people you have never seen before.

I think it would be better to have Yeseul who knows both sides as a bridging role.

“Then aren’t there too few people? Even when the number of people is small, at least 8 people or more… .”

“I’ll try it and let you know if I think we need more people.”

“All right. However, safety is our top priority, so let us know if you need anything. sorry again.”

“it’s okay.”

Fortunately, after talking in a warm atmosphere, everyone except the guild leader left the office.

After having lunch with water at a restaurant that Mr. Yeseul recommended, we stopped at the accommodation.

Did it take 10 minutes in the guild?

It’s not as luxurious as the hotel I stayed in Seoul, but it’s clean and there aren’t many people, so it’s quiet, so it’s okay.

It’s close to the guild and the sea is only 20 minutes away by car, so it would be nice to spend leisure time after work.

I decided to go hunting right away from the afternoon, so I opened my carrier, changed into clothes that were easy to work in, and came down to the first floor with my sword.

When I got to the parking lot, only Yeseul was there, and the two of them didn’t come down yet.

“You came down early. Is your accommodation okay?”

“It’s good. Have the Hunters who will join been contacted?”

“Ah yes. He told me to come to the portal right away.”

“Can you briefly explain who they are?”

“One person mainly uses fire-type magic, and the other person uses a bow.”

I thought it would be nice to be someone who can use some strength to help when carrying monster corpses, but being a wizard and an archer is the worst.

Since I also use a sword and Lee Seol is melee, did you think that there are not enough ranged dealers?

I don’t think there will be a lack of firepower, but I can’t help it because I already told you to come.

“Among the people who decided to join, they are the most talented.”

Skills don’t matter, but I hope my personality doesn’t matter.
