Baek Seol-hee, who was convinced that Jin Yu-ha did not mind her, had no more hesitation.

Let Jin Yu-ha, who was only watching, participate in the dungeon raid.

Love love ─

Love love love ─

The speed of clearing the dungeon has become faster as if accelerated.

Suddenly─

Seogeogeokeuk—!

“Keeek—!!!”

Wow!

All eight legs of the giant spider monster are cut off.

Sticky poison poured out from the abdomen and melted the floor.

Heo Eok─

Heo Eok─

Jin Yu-ha, covered in mud with sweat, let out a rough breath.

In contrast, Baek Seol-hee still hasn’t shed a drop of sweat.

With this, I have already completed six dungeons.

I thought a maximum of four a day was the limit,

It was a performance that far exceeded the daily quota Jin Yu-ha initially expected.

“Whoa... Master! So shall we call it a day? At this rate, I think I’ll be able to finish everything by tomorrow!”

Jin Yu-ha said, wiping away the beads of sweat that had formed on his forehead.

And Baek Seol-hee stared blankly at that disciple.

‘Jeju Island was this dangerous...’

He didn’t know until he came with his disciple.

The dungeons we conquered with Jin Yu-ha today are all hidden in the corners and not often visited by people.

There were also two dungeons there that were not even known to exist.

There were a lot of dangerous people piled up inside, so it seemed clear that if it exploded at any time, it would have been a disaster.

‘······If even one of these had exploded, Jeju Island would have been devastated that day.’

As if I had been cursed by God.

There was even a hint of malicious intent to end Jeju Island.

However, how did Jin Yuha come to know that Jeju Island was dangerous?

How did you find those dungeons that no one knew about?

Baek Seol-hee was not curious.

Yes, she still remembered her pupil’s first plea to her.

At the time, probably in the early days of school.

I remember that it was not long ago that she accepted Jin Yuha as her disciple.

─ Then, instructor. Can you believe me just once, no matter what I say? And can you please not ask me why?

At that time, Jin Yu-ha pleaded,

Ryu Jin-ju of the Hunter Management Bureau has demoted her current Hunter Management Director and made it known to her that she wants to take up the position.

And thanks to that, she was able to prevent the corruption of the Hunter Administration.

Of course, the disciples put a condition on it, saying ‘just once’.

At that time, Baek Seol-hee had already made up her mind.

If it’s what the disciple says, just don’t doubt it and just believe it.

Even so, he is a child who carries a heavy burden on his small shoulders.

Then, shouldn’t there be at least one person who will trust you no matter what you say?

‘Because that’s the easiest thing an underprivileged teacher with overqualified students can do.’

After completing the strategy, I came out of the gate.

It was already a dark night.

Baek Seol-hee, who came out of the gate, pressed the earphones to her ears and whispered in a low voice.

─ Demon assassination squad. Response.

Chijijik.

─ Huh...? Hotline suddenly? Wow, are you the boss? It’s definitely a vacation starting from today...

─ Yes, I am on vacation, but you are not.

─ Well, we are also training hard on our own...

─ Okay, the dungeon you wanted to go to. Bali and Maldives.

─ Huh? Yes? Did a demon appear there?

─ From now on, we will form a group and clear out all the dungeons in Bali and the Maldives. Just make sure you know that it won’t be fun if you leave even one behind.

─ No, more of a dungeon attack!? There are no magicians there! We are not hunters who make money by selling monsters! There was no request, so why! And I said I wanted to go with a man, not with some dark bitches—

Took.

I could hear something talking beyond the earphones.

After finishing what she had to say, Baek Seol-hee hung up the phone without thinking.

‘Well, Jin Yu-ha was worried about whether to go to Bali and the Maldives at first. There is a high possibility that the situation is similar to here.’

Baek Seol-hee nodded his head indifferently.

“Hmm. This is the gate that the members really wanted to go to, so I don’t think there will be any complaints.”

Of course, there were many complaints.

At her untimely order to conquer an overseas dungeon, the members of the Demon Slayer were pouring out their complaints and curses at her.

─ You snow-white bastard, aah!

* * *

The last gate we processed was located on an uninhabited island near Jeju Island.

‘Hmm, it’s too remote a place to stay... ‘

Crossing the sea on a dark night without any lights is extremely dangerous.

If you happen to encounter a marine monster in the middle of the sea at night like this, you’ll be in trouble.

‘It would be better to camp here today.’

“Master. “I’m sorry, but is it okay if I camp here today?”

“Okay.”

Master nodded as if it didn’t matter.

‘Then let’s start by lighting a fire and setting up a tent.’

I took out various camping supplies, including fire steel, from the subspace tattoo.

“Then, I...”

“Uh huh, Master, please stay still.”

So let me prepare for camping next to you.

Master also tried to do something, but I stopped her by pressing her her shoulder her her her.

Well, it’s a camping trip between a teacher and a disciple, so shouldn’t the disciple work?

Of course, I know it’s strange for a man to do something like that alone in this world.

The Confucian dragon I had before possession did not allow it.

Camping preparations were completed quickly as subspace tattoos already had camping equipment that could be solved with just a button.

And next, what you should not miss while camping.

That’s right, cooking!

In fact, I had already made a promise a long time ago to serve my teacher a meal prepared by myself.

There hasn’t really been any opportunity so far.

In other words, this is the first dish I am presenting to my teacher!

Grumbling─

I was lost in thought as I heated the wok in front of the fire with my bright red tongue sticking out.

‘Well, what can I do for you?’

Let’s take a quick glance in Master’s direction.

I saw Master holding his knees and looking at me quietly.

‘You must be tired, right?’

Although he doesn’t say anything, he must be quite tired.

There’s no way he wouldn’t be tired after destroying six gates by himself.

Although I did assist.

To be honest, I was busy chasing after my teacher who was in serious mode.

‘Oh, come to think of it, that was there, right?’

Frozen trimmed chicken. Eel. Abalone.

‘I need to make a fish stew with all the ingredients that are good for stamina. Hmm, and should I add this too...? It is also a vitamin for physical recovery. Okay, let’s put it in!’

Whilick!

Let’s start cooking like that.

The dish was prepared in an instant.

Unlike usual when I am always full of experimental spirit when cooking, I didn’t take on many challenges this time.

That’s because whenever I lift the fan, I get angry so much...

Chicken, eel, and abalone.

Materials kept fresh in subspace tattoos.

It’s a soup made with crushed tomatoes rich in vitamins.

The name is Jin Yu-ha’s Tomato Sea God Soup!

Little? Although it may be unfamiliar that tomatoes are included in Haesintang

‘Well, there’s tomato soup too!’

It was a stamina recovery dish with tomatoes covering all the ingredients and bursting with umami.

“I will eat well.”

Let’s serve the prepared tomato haesintang in a large ladleful bowl.

Master began eating without much change in expression.

I stared at her eating her

Then.

Master glances up at me.

“Hmm, it’s delicious...”

And as if the Master’s words were not empty words, he swiped a bowl and emptied the entire bowl.

It was the first time.

The person who eats all the dishes I make.

“Then let’s go to sleep. I have plans for tomorrow. It would be good to get some rest.”

“Oh, yes.”

Since it was an unplanned camping trip, I only brought one tent.

Then, Master said he would sleep outside.

‘Go!’

The Confucian dragon howls from within again.

“It’s not possible! “Where is the disciple who lets the Master sleep outside!”

“······I usually sleep well outside. “Usually, when you work in a killing squad...”

“No! I didn’t come out today to participate in the Killing Squad activities. I absolutely cannot allow it!”

“But...”

“Then, let’s sleep together!”

“······What?”

“Anyway, this tent is big enough for two people to lie down and sleep!”

Let me speak in a firm manner.

Master opened his mouth as if speechless.

I forced Master into the tent as he was insisting on sleeping outside.

Still, I was relieved to see that there was no sign of trying to get out of the tent.

Slurp.

When I took a seat and laid down first, Master kept trying to move to the corner.

“Lie down here comfortably. “If you keep doing that, I feel uncomfortable.”

Let me say this while patting the seat next to me.

“······Got it.”

Wiggle Wiggle─

The teacher moves around with his body wrapped in a sleeping bag with an expressionless face.

‘You show a lot of new sides today.’

In the end, Master lay down right next to me with his back to me.

That was when I was trying to sleep.

“Student. Are you sleeping?”

Suddenly, Master called me.

“Yes? “Did you call me?”

Let’s turn our heads and answer.

“······Actually, I lied to you a little while ago.”

Master opens his lips with difficulty, as if hesitating.

“Are you lying?”

“Okay. “It was a lie to say that the food was delicious.”

“······!”

A shock as if lightning strikes your head.

I know I shouldn’t do that, but honestly, I felt deeply betrayed.

“But, I don’t want to lie to you either.”

Master was still lying on his back and chanted in a low voice.

“Actually, I don’t feel the ‘taste’ itself.”

“······Yes?”

“Of course, the food you cooked was delicious. But, I don’t feel that taste.”

What does that mean?

Looking at her her her back her so intently

Baek Seol-hee turned her body, made eye contact with her, and opened her mouth.

“Are you curious?”

“······Yes, I’m curious.”

“Well, it’s not a particularly interesting story... “Let me tell you a story from my past.”

In this way, Baek Seol-hee began to tell her own story, which she had never told anyone else.
