"Did you get hit by Papa's technique? I thought Gyu-ha couldn't use that."
"He used it for the first time today. Looks like he copied it after seeing mine."
Jang Beom stuck out his tongue. Gong Tae-seong was no pushover, but Hyeon Gyu-ha, who turned him into a rag, was an even worse monster.
"But the internal organs didn't come out. If the internal organs had rotted and fallen off like that, it would have been difficult to recover."
"Just tell me to die, though."
“Should we look into a burial plot?”
"I'm going for a tree burial."
"I have to see the Vice President before I die."
"......Yeah. If the last thing I saw was your face, I think I'd be so resentful that I wouldn't be able to close my eyes even after I die."
"Wow, even I would be hurt by comments like that."
I searched through the inventory, but I couldn't find anything that could treat my rotting wound. I had to go outside and get treatment, but I wondered if Hyeon Gyu-ha would send me there.
Unlike Jang Beom, who was looking at him with concern, Gong Tae-seong did not even think about treating his wound and just stared blankly into space.
In front of him, Jang Beom waved his hands.
“Something.”
"No, I thought my eyesight might have gone bad while fighting."
The distant bell sound completely stopped, and a new notification window appeared.
[The dungeon boss 'The Bell No One Answers' has died.]
[The dungeon has been cleared.]
"It's a quick fix."
Jang Beom stood up and lifted Gandiva in front of his body. He didn’t think he could beat Hyeon Gyu-ha even a little, but he had to struggle.
However, Hyeon Gyu-ha, who was standing nearby with In Yoo-shin at his side, only frowned and did not rush to cut Gong Tae-seong’s neck. He just looked down at In Yoo-shin next to him and checked his mood.
Gong Tae-seong muttered quietly.
“I don’t want that kid to see me cut off my arms and legs and carry off only my torso.”
"What on earth were you two playing?"
Hyepn Gyu-ha answered that question. Hyeon Gyu-ha lightly placed his hand on the crown of In Yoo-shin’s head, who was fidgeting and looking back and forth between the two of them, and then approached Gong Tae-seong alone.
His soft whispers from his bent back would never be heard by the distant In Yoo-shin.
"I'll send it for now, but I'll come get it soon, so wait. You should write a will in advance."
"Do you think I'll just quietly take it then?"
"No matter how hard you struggle, the result won't change, and it'll just be ugly."
"No matter how ugly it may seem, there is something I have to do while I'm alive."
Hyeon Gyu-ha glanced at In Yoo-shin behind him. Judging from his expression, it seemed like he was thinking, 'Even if I can't kill him in front of his eyes, wouldn't it be okay to cut off one of his arms?' So Jang Beom took a step forward.
"Hey, aren't you ignoring me too much when I'm here?"
"You can't beat me."
"Can't Papa find a way to escape before he dies?"
"If you shoot an arrow at me, I'll cut off Gong Tae-seong's leg right away."
"If it's Papa, he’ll crawl and jump."
"What are you two talking about with my body right now?"
Contrary to his joke, Jang Beom really pulled Gandiva's bowstring, and Hyeon Gyu-ha also pulled out Balisarda. In Yoo-shin was at a loss as another fight was about to break out before his eyes.
"Wait for a sec!"
In the blink of an eye, a whale was floating in the air before their eyes. For a moment, they were surprised by the appearance of a whale so huge that it could not be contained in their field of vision, but Hyeon Gyu-ha immediately flew backwards and stood in front of In Yoo-shin.
Jang Beom-do quickly raised his Gandhiva Bow high and muttered.
"Hidden Boss? No, it's already been cleared and there was no dungeon break? Is it a new type of monster?"
"No way!"
The whale flapped its fins and cried out in a complaining voice.
"How dare you compare me to some petty monster!"
“…….”
Everyone in the room, except for Gong Tae-seong, who was holding his forehead and sighing, opened his mouth. They couldn’t decide whether to be surprised by the fact that something that looked like a monster was speaking, or by the fact that what came out of its mouth was a thick Hamgyong dialect.
The whale, which had been rolling its huge eyes, pretended to slam its face into the ground.
"Stop bargaining, please spare me."
"Why, why....... is the monster using the Hamgyong dialect? And the strongest Yukjin dialect at that......?"
“Not a monster!”
Hyeon Gyu-ha asked Jang Beom, who was confused. If it's Yukjin, then it's the area where it is in the Hoeryong province, where he was just a few hours ago, and it belongs there.
"Do you understand what that means?"
"Uh, uh, roughly...... My hometown is Cheongjin...... What I said earlier meant 'don't fight, just save me,' but were you talking about Tae-seong......?"
“Hmm.”
Hyeon Gyu-ha, who judged that there would be no immediate harm, lowered the Balisarda diagonally. He did not use the sword because he had not completely let his guard down.
"There, monster."
“No, I tell you!”
"You mean no? Well, anyway, what's the relationship with Gong Tae-seong?"
The whale did not answer right away, but rolled its large eyes and looked down at Gong Tae-seong. Gong Tae-seong only pressed his head down as if he had a headache, and showed no sign of trying to interfere.
Well, now that the truth has been revealed, there's no way to cover it up.
"I will indeed give birth to the king's son when I meet him."
“……?”
When Hyun Gyu-ha tilted his head, Jang Beom opened his mouth with a look of bewilderment.
"Live long enough, and you even get days where you're translating a monster's dialect. She says she'll meet later and tell the king's son? Surely that's not you, is it? Haven't you gotten over your chunibyo yet?"
"......It's roughly similar."
A short sneer appeared at the corner of Hyeon Gyu-ha's mouth, and In Yoo-shin, who had been just opening his mouth at the mention of the king's son, flinched.
The whale, who seemed about to say something, blinked.
"Your Majesty, I will be going now. The others will come."
The whales that had filled the sky disappeared in the blink of an eye, and Han Jun-su and Narsha's guild members came running, kicking up the smoky dust that still had the aftermath of the battle.
“Guild leader!”
The healer who witnessed the seriously injured Gong Tae-seong began to treat him quickly. He had not seen the giant whale floating in the air until just now. Judging by its size, he must have seen it as soon as he entered the dungeon.
"Hu."
Jang Beom looked astonished.
"Jun-su-ya, did you see anything just now?"
"If you're looking for a motherfucker I want to punch, he's right in front of me now.”
“Jang Beom.”
Gong Tae-seong's short order was an order not to bring up this matter to anyone else. Jang Beom shrugged his shoulders and brushed it off.
"How did you find this dungeon?"
"The guild leader hurriedly withdrew the people guarding this dungeon today. I came just in case."
"Oh. You're smart. I thought you were only sensitive to useless things, but our Jun-su has good instincts."
"Shut up. Just thinking about that phone call makes me want to rip my throat out."
"Yep."
Han Jun-su greeted Hyeon Gyu-ha and In Yoo-shin with a face that seemed to have aged ten years in the time they hadn't seen each other.
"I don't know what happened....... Did the guild leader and hunter Hyeon fight? Is Yoo-shin-ssi hurt anywhere? I have a healer here so I can treat you."
"Ah, no. I'm fine."
Han Jun-su didn’t mention that he would treat Hyeon Gyu-ha, but instead glared at Jang Beom. His eyes were fierce and demanded that he immediately explain the situation. Jang Beom scratched his cheek and moved his lips.
"You know too. Gyu-ha and Papa are in a love triangle."
"What?!"
"The two of them fought over Yoo-shin."
Not only Han Jun-su, but even In Yoo-shin looked at him with expressions that made his eyes look like they were going to pop out, but Jang Beom remained calm. Hyeon Gyu-ha and Gong Tae-seong frowned fiercely but remained silent. In any case, they both tacitly agreed that they should not bring up the topic of the heart or anything like that and just keep it quiet.
Naturally, the guild members who knew Gong Tae-seong well did not believe him and muttered.
“No way. The guild leader is always nagging the vice president……”
"I'm honestly confident that I wouldn't be surprised if I heard that the guild leader stood in the rain in front of the Yangsa mansion for 7 nights and 8 days."
Surprisingly, Han Jun-su closed his eyes tightly for a moment, then opened them again and nodded. He understood that the truth would not be revealed and that he would try to cover it up.
"Anyway, I understand."
The healer who was treating Gong Tae-seong looked up with concern.
"The wound isn't healing well. I think I need to start by purifying it."
"Then first, we have to get out of the dungeon......."
As Han Jun-su glanced at him, Hyeon Gyu-ha thought for a moment and then put his lips on In Yoo-shin's ear.
