The restaurant Inhwan visited tasted better than expected.

It was a cozy and warm meal with a comfortable atmosphere that you could not feel if you only ate at a hotel.

If it had been the original plan, we would have seen more of the city after eating, but that would have happened and there would have been no choice but to have a watchdog.

‘Well, it must have been attached in the first place.’

Fortunately, today was the first day, so there was still quite a bit of time left.

“There are many things to enjoy at the hotel, so let’s take a look around the city tomorrow.”

Both In-hwan and Sang-yeon knew what Seong-hyeon meant, so they nodded.

I was worried that there might be more people like Takami, but fortunately I didn’t meet him on the way back to the hotel.

There were many things to enjoy on the top floor of the hotel.

Bars and clubs, swimming pools and hot springs and more.

The three of them returned to their room, enjoying their leisurely enough inconspicuousness, and sat down together in the conference room before entering their respective rooms.

“Certainly, Japanese academies are very different.”

Inhwan couldn’t forget the device he had seen earlier.

It’s a device that allows you to use 10 times more time.

“why. Are you sorry?”

Sang-yeon looked at In-hwan and asked, and In-hwan responded with a snort.

“I’m only saying this because of us, but Japan invented something that the US couldn’t invent first? I think there will be a problem.”

In-hwan shrugged his shoulders and continued speaking with a slightly stiffened expression.

“I don’t like the fact that we are being followed.”

“Don’t worry. Now our rank ranks are at the top.”

Seonghyeon, who had been listening to their conversation, carefully spoke out.

“Shall we go to the gate of Japan?”

“A door in Japan?”

“You mean an open door?”

“right. Japan also has open doors, and the number of them is much higher than in Korea.”

This was one of the reasons why Sunghyun accepted this trip to Japan without much thought.

‘I don’t know if that door exists at this time…’

I didn’t remember the details of what I heard before the return, of course, because I heard it through the media.

But fragmentary memories came to mind.

It’s like achieving miraculous results in a global soccer tournament long ago.

I can’t remember the date of the match, but at least the winner of the match remembers the fragmentary but most important things.

Just as a single-person door appeared in Korea, this unique door appeared at least once in each country.

‘If there is no better opportunity than this.’

There are two open doors around here.

Among them, the special door that Seong-hyeon remembers was the door that was about 30 minutes away from the hotel.

Unlike Korea, where a single-person door was created separately, Japan was not a single-person door.

“Are you going right now?”

Inhwan’s eyes were shining as if it was more interesting than looking around the city.

“You have to get permission first. No matter how much we were invited, in order for a hunter from another country to use an open door, we have to get permission.”

In the present situation where crystals are already deeply involved in everyday life as well as in many other fields, the door has been a threat and resource for each country.

So, except in special cases, it was rare to grant subjugation rights to hunters in other countries.

“Maybe they will give you permission.”

Seonghyeon could not forget the eyes of the vice president who looked at him.

The vigilance hidden in pure favor.

It was an expression that seemed to have sensed something from the small commotion that had occurred with Takami.

‘The country must have given permission.’

Of course, the amount of crystals that only three academy students could take was limited.

If you can give away some crystals and preempt information that other countries don’t have, it’s a business with enough leftovers.

‘This is my deal.’

The deal was like this.

It makes the other person feel that he was deceived, rather than not knowing if it was a loss.

“Then let’s get permission tomorrow and let’s go right away. After that, we went to see the city.”

“It’s good.”

“Good.”

After a brief meeting, the three went back to their respective rooms.

I was simply preparing for tomorrow’s subjugation, when I got a phone call.

“Well?”

It was a call from Ha-yeon, who is taking care of Ye-in.

“What happened?”

Seonghyeon immediately answered the phone call because she was anxious about the call at bedtime.

“hello?”

“Ah, Seonghyun-san, it’s no different…”

A slightly troubled voice further aggravated Seong-hyun’s tension, and Seong-hyun waited for the next word without notice.

“I’m sorry that Yein wanted to call you…you’re tired.”

“Ah… what else did I say? it’s okay.”

“Then I will change it.”

A voice calling for a change could be heard from behind the receiver, and soon the main character of that voice answered the phone.

“brother! How about Japan?”

“Did you call out of curiosity about that?”

“yes!”

Seonghyeon, who smiled lightly at the innocent voice, began to tell about what happened today.

Even the story of meeting high-ranking people, going on a field trip to a Japanese academy, and meeting and defeating bad people.

“So tomorrow…Hello?”

At some point, I couldn’t hear the exclamation, so when I checked, Yein’s voice didn’t come back.

“Sunghyun? Yein fell asleep. Thank you. You must have been tired…”

“no. Aren’t you in trouble? Yein.”

“Yeah, I’m a little bored.”

As we talked, I felt like I became Yein’s father, so Sunghyun smiled lightly and said,

“Please suffer a little.”

“Do not worry. Seonghyeon-san, please be careful.”

After hanging up the call, Seonghyeon checked that an hour had passed since the call started, and threw her cell phone aside and closed her eyes.

The next day, as I said the day before, Sung-hyun immediately called the Japan Association.

“hello?”

I called from early in the morning, but the woman’s voice was as vivid as if she had just woken up.

“hello. This is Kim Seong-hyun.”

“yes! I know. What are you doing in the morning?”

“It’s no different, just because I was wondering if I could go to an open door in Japan.”

Perhaps he was a little surprised that he was going to the open door, he hesitated for a moment over the receiver, and then the answer came back.

“It’s not something I can decide. Could you please wait a minute? If you haven’t had breakfast yet, I’ll contact you before dinner is over.”

“of course.”

I didn’t think I’d get an answer right away, so Seong-hyun answered that he would know and hung up the phone.

The woman who hung up the phone had a hardened expression on her face and fell into thought.

‘What’s your plan?’

If it were another student, I would have thought it was a request purely for subjugation, but Seonghyeon was not such an ordinary person.

“…let’s make a report.”

She didn’t have a choice, so she headed straight to the room where the vice president was.

When I knocked on the room door, a tired voice came back.

“come in.”

Upon opening the door, the vice president, surrounded by piles of papers, greeted the woman with an expressionless expression as usual.

“What’s going on?”

“Hunter Kim just called.”

“…Kim Hunter? this morning?”

The vice president, whose expression hardened for a moment, wondering if something else had happened, luckily it didn’t seem to be the case, so he quickly relaxed his expression and looked at the woman.

“It was a call asking for access to an open door.”

“Are you going to use the open door?”

It was unexpected.

I will go to the door until I come to another country.

“Did you have any other intentions?”

“I haven’t figured it out yet.”

Naturally, the association had no choice.

It wasn’t because Seonghyun was a special person.

For hunters from other countries, even those who are getting a lot of attention, it was basic to be reluctant to engage in such activities in situations except for official requests.

Because information about yourself has been exposed.

However, Seong-hyun felt as if he was intentionally exposing it.

‘Are you stupid?’

Of course not.

‘Are you a person who enjoys attention?’

Of course this wasn’t the case either.

“Permit it.”

“All right.”

“Instead, attach all those you secretly attached to it.”

The woman responded with a worried expression to the words of the vice president.

“Would it be okay? Knowing vaguely and asking openly are two different things…”

“The same thing happened yesterday, Takami-kun, so it should be an interpreter to prevent it from happening. I think it would be just right for you to go.”

“ah…”

The vice president, who put the documents he was processing to one side, looked at the woman and asked.

“I’m talking about Takami, are you done with the process?”

“Yes, at first the academy reacted, but after hearing the details, they kept their mouths shut.”

The association also had a cause, so Seong-hyeon would not be able to refuse.

“What is the processing result?”

“As you said at the beginning, it was paid for one year.”

“Tell Hunter Kim, too, and let them go to the door together.”

“all right.”

The woman who left the room with her head bowed slightly took the documents that Takami had processed and headed to the hotel where Seong-hyeon was.

I was able to meet Seong-hyeon right after the meal was over, and the woman showed me the documents she had brought and said.

“The door said that I would allow it on condition that I go with you.”

“Are you together?”

“Yes, Takami-kun’s work would not have happened if there was someone who could interpret it or someone from the association.”

It certainly made sense, and it didn’t matter who was following anyway, so Seonghyun nodded.

“And the documents I handed over are the results of Takami-kun’s handling.”

“Results?”

It happened yesterday, but Seonghyeon looked at the documents with a little startled at the words that it was a result and not a processing situation.

[1st year Aino Takami. 1 year paid]

“One year… Paid?”

The document, written in Korean so that Seong-hyeon could recognize it, had Takami’s name and the word paid for one year.

As a student at the same academy, I felt a little pity.

But apart from that, I had no intention of asking for it to be withdrawn.

“We apologize once again for what happened yesterday.”

“no. It was a good experience for me.”

There was nothing to worry about about Takami anymore, so Seong-hyeon immediately called In-hwan and Sang-yeon to the conference room.

“How are you?”

“We started talking about going together because of work yesterday.”

“I’m sure it would be much more convenient if we accompany you.”

It was just past morning, and there wasn’t much to prepare to go to the door.

“When are you planning to leave?”

“We have finished the shrine, have you eaten?”

“Sure. I’m done right away.”

“Then change your clothes and leave immediately.”

After about 5 minutes, all three of them finished their transfers and went out to the conference room, and without saying anything, everyone went straight to the door.

The door you are heading to now is the door where about 4 level 4 magical beasts appear.

In other words, for Seong-hyeon, In-hwan, and Sang-yeon of today, it was just a door to unwind.
