…

…

‘Still, I got one.’

I nodded my head at the satisfactory rune acquisition.

I thought that I might be able to find decent runes if I conducted an interview in the form of sparring, so I sparred with the applicants myself, but surprisingly it was not easy to acquire the runes.

The reasons were several.

First of all, most of the applicants are A-rank holders, so winning itself is not easy.

Also, there are many cases where there are duplicates because you have already obtained quite a few runes.

And above all…

‘It’s hard to admit victory.’

Since they don’t fight each other with all their might, the system doesn’t recognize it as a [Rune Hunter] duel in the first place.

An interview is literally a place where you just have to prove your strength and ability.

Even if you can defeat your opponent with your skills, there is no need to fight with all your heart.

For that reason, 97 people who passed the documents and conducted interviews.

Among them, 33 were directly in charge of sparring.

There were only three runes obtained through sparring with them.

[The normal rune ‘Whip’ is incorporated into the upper rune ‘Master of Weapons’.]

[Rare rune ‘Ocean Current Sword’ will be incorporated into higher rank rune ‘Valorous Wave of Eternity’.]

Two of them were included in the existing category and incorporated into the top runes, and the remaining one was the epic rune [Silver Moon Shadow] obtained by defeating the holder named Do Seung-min.

[Silver Moon Shadow] doesn’t seem to have much of an effect on the surface.

Including weapons and equipment used, rune effects, skills, and other abilities are given the effect of ‘silver’, but the effect of silver has no power in ordinary situations.

‘But it’s effective in this dungeon.’

The ‘werewolves’, whose basics start with A rank, have very strong power.

Innate strength, overwhelming speed, and fighting skills that are second to none.

Even a solid durability that does not even get scratched by a moderate attack.

In particular, when a special situation occurs within the dungeon and a special rune that responds to it is activated, there are cases where the attack does not stick at all.

What works for them is the ‘power of silver’.

The power of silver easily pierces their hides and inflicts extra damage.

Ordinary power returns to divine power and creates a special effect.

It was for this reason that they asked Yumin Choi and Hyeonho Lee to mass-produce silver weapons prior to the raid preparations.

Silver weapons usually have no effect and it is difficult to get a high grade due to the speciality of their production, but they used to show strong power when dealing with monsters of unusual shapes such as werewolves.

‘In that respect, Do Seung-min is an attractive member.’

That was the reason why he selected Do Seung-min, who was a little short of the standard.

[Silver moonshadow].

It would be advantageous if there was at least one more holder of this rune, which could be the key to this capture.

Besides, he’s still young, and he’s in the same assassin family… He could have grown up quickly if he taught him this and that while taking him around.

“Oh- what a tense day.”

The moment I was lost in thought for a while.

A familiar male voice reaches my ears.

A handsome appearance with a tall stature.

Equipped with rare armor and helmets.

And a fancy sword in hand.

It was Park Jin-woo, my best friend.

“Are you here early?”

“uh. Hey, but this is a bit awkward. They are too expensive.”

Park Jin-woo touched his equipment awkwardly.

Offensive warriors prefer light equipment, but Park Jin-woo has not had much equipment.

At least leather armor and shoes?

He didn’t even write that pitching interfered with vision.

Regarding the equipment, I tend to use what I have, but Park Jin-woo was severe.

“Get used to it, dude.”

So I decided to take this opportunity and gave some high-end equipment as a gift.

In other words, what Jinwoo Park is wearing…

all i bought

Since all the equipment is at least rare, Park Jin-woo was terrified and tried to pay for it, but he refused and just bought it.

The help I received from Park Jin-Woo, knowingly and unknowingly.

The moments that I was grateful for as a colleague beyond a friend.

There was also the meaning of wanting to pay it back…

“If the deputy commander’s equipment is shabby, the raid will look shabby.”

The sub-attack leader of this ＜Ripple Raid＞.

It was also because he gave that title to Park Jin-woo.

When Park Jin-woo heard the word ‘deputy engineering chief’, he immediately scratched his head.

“Ah-oh… Do I really have to do that?”

“Then why don’t you come now?”

“No, there are many career positions. Lim Hyun-sama or that person, royal sign holder? That person is there too.”

The two holders Park Jin-woo talks about.

Lim Hyun and Seong Na-yeon.

They are all A-rank holders with experience and skills, and they are not lacking at all as deputy engineering commanders, but…

I had a little problem.

“I told you. Command might be dispersed.”

That is, even if it is a career job, it is too career job.

Seong Na-yeon is the signboard holder who took care of large and small tasks in ＜Royal＞, and Lim Hyun is the person who was in charge of the engineering team leader of the ＜Dark Green Grassland＞ just before.

They had a lot of reputation and strong leadership, so there were many holders who followed them.

Just the members selected for our raid right now, except for a few holders, I would trust them more than I do.

If such people were given a title with a strong voice, such as the deputy engineering chief, there could be a problem with the attack.

Right now, I’m the one who knows the most about ＜City of Excommunicated Wolves＞, but it’s a bit difficult if they tackle based on intuition and experience.

“Besides, if you entrust something to a member of the clan, it’s okay.”

Lim Hyeon is an independent, but Seong Na-yeon is definitely a member of the ＜Royal＞ clan.

If we entrusted raid-related titles to members of large clans or ordinary private clans, our raid might appear to be under the control of the clan from the outside.

Also, you can file complaints from other clans that have not been given titles.

That was the reason why we didn’t entrust Kang Joo-yeon, who has a lot of experience among our members, as the vice-captain.

“hey. and you can do it Do you have leadership within you that you don’t even know about?”

“Oooh, crazy man. How do you know what I don’t know?”

“Puhahahaha.”

I burst into laughter at Park Jin-woo’s cool swear words.

The decisive reason for entrusting him with the vice-captain was because he wanted to improve his inherent ability.

Park Jin-woo is a holder specializing in offensive warriors, but he is also an excellent leader.

In the original work, he clearly showed his qualities as a leader while going through a mental awakening, and originally this dungeon was clumsy, but he formed the raid himself.

If I can show that ability again this time, it will be a great strength to me in the future.

It’s a bit crude and rough to take on the vice-captain right now, but he’ll do well.

I bought the equipment expecting that.

‘Well, he’s the only one I can trust.’

Right now, a member who can be called a real ‘my person’ in ＜Excommunication Raid＞.

Except for Kang Joo-yeon, there was no one other than Park Jin-woo to take on the role of vice-captain.

It was a matter that was decided after some complicated interests were intertwined.

“So when is Camilla coming?”

I clapped once and asked Park Jin-woo in a quiet tone.

Then the boy frowned.

“Why are you talking about Camilla all of a sudden?”

“I’m curious.”

“You know what to do.”

“what. Do you know? Have you tried contacting them?”

“… … .”

For a moment, Park Jin-woo, who was dried up by my pace, closed his mouth.

It is a face that has been completely stabbed.

Then he turned his back with an embarrassed face.

“I am going to sharpen my knife. See you later.”

“No, you madman. What weapon do you change every day?”

“I don’t know. Don’t look for it.”

Starting with Park Jin-woo, the members began to gather one by one.

Starting with senior holders such as Lim Hyeon and Seong Na-yeon…

Kim Chae-eun, Kang Ju-yeon, and Moon Ga-eun who returned from Japan.

Akiba, who joined the raid at my request.

Lee Su-mi, a face I haven’t seen in a long time.

Even Camilla, who is waiting for Park Jin-woo every day… .

Numerous other raid members appeared one after another.

“older brother-!! It’s an exciting and exciting morning… !!”

“… … .”

… For some reason, I saw one ardent fan who followed me very well.

Anyway, 9 warriors, 6 wizards and archers, 6 assassins, 3 divine, 2 special.

A total of 32 crew members all gathered on time.

Didn’t need a lot of greetings.

They quickly came together and maintained order.

And I’m at the center of it.

Inside dozens of pairs of pupils…

He declared in a low, strong voice.

“Then, let’s start attacking from now.”

＜City of excommunicated wolves＞.

It was the first step toward the land where the unknown information was buried.
