The Late Game Healer Is Way Too Strong – Chapter 7.1

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟕: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐥𝐞

“So that’s what Gold River ordered, right?”

Yoon Seung-gyu nodded at Min Si-joon’s question.

They had captured and tortured the men who had confronted Siwoo and had extracted information from them.

The information they had so easily spilled was as follows:

[𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝] Urgent summons from Ryu Ji-hwan.

《Catch the awakener who came out of the Tutorial Tower today and bring him to us. He looks just like Min Si-joon. If he resists, you may beat him half to death.》

“Ryu Ji-hwan, that son of a b*tch. . . !”

Min Si-joon’s teeth gritted.

He had talked about needing someone with his skills when he was talking to Choi Sung-il.

But in reality, his actions had shown that he knew full well that the person he was after was important to Min Si-joon.

The despicable, snake-like man thought only of using other people’s misfortunes to fill his own belly.

“What should we do?”

Min Si-joon was lost in thought.

If he announced that his older brother had returned alive, it could cause a huge stir.

‘𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙣 𝙞𝙛 𝙍𝙮𝙪 𝙅𝙞-𝙝𝙬𝙖𝙣 𝙞𝙨 𝙖 𝙣𝙤𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙮, 𝙞𝙛 𝘾𝙝𝙤𝙞 𝘿𝙖𝙚-𝙨𝙤𝙤 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙨 𝙤𝙪𝙩. . . .’

Would that man really welcome his older brother’s return?

Of course not. If he didn’t send assassins after him, it would be a blessing.

Min Si-joon was angry with himself.

He had built up the [𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝], acknowledged by all as the best guild in South Korea, from nothing.

Even though it was one of the largest guilds in the world.

Despite all his efforts, Choi Dae-soo’s position and power had grown to such an extent that he could not keep up.

Did he have to become a monster to catch a monster?

Such thoughts bound his weary body like chains.

‘𝙄 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙠𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝙢𝙮 𝙤𝙡𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧’𝙨 𝙚𝙭𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙖 𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙣𝙤𝙬. 𝙄 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙗𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙢𝙮 𝙤𝙡𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙞𝙨. . . 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝘾𝙝𝙤𝙞 𝘿𝙖𝙚-𝙨𝙤𝙤 𝙝𝙖𝙨 𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧 𝙤𝙣 𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚, 𝙨𝙤 𝙞𝙛 𝙄 𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙖𝙡 𝙞𝙩 𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙝𝙡𝙮, 𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙪𝙥 𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙖𝙘𝙠𝙚𝙙.’

Min Si-joon came to a conclusion.

He was a top-tier hunter of the same generation as his older brother, and one of the Three Venerables of South Korea.

His enormous experience and monstrous strength had even made him president, so what did it matter?

‘𝙁𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩, 𝙄’𝙡𝙡 𝙖𝙨𝙠 𝙢𝙮 𝙤𝙡𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙙𝙤.’

Min Si-joon rose from his seat.

Due to his urgent business, his brother was currently in the break room with his bodyguards.

What a way to treat his brother, whom he had finally met again.

“For now, just tell [𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝] that you found the awakener and resolved the issue. Don’t say anything to [𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝] and Ryu Ji-hwan.”

“What should I say if [𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝] contacts us first?”

“They probably won’t. They wouldn’t dare contact us now that they’ve been caught, stirring things up. But if they do contact us, send them these pictures and audio files.”

Min Si-joon said, showing his older brother’s pictures with the C-rank and D-rank hunters from the [𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝] who had ambushed him, kneeling and surrendering.

He had taken them just in case.

“Add that if they don’t want to be the number one trending topic on Naver, we can all get along nicely.”

“Understood.”

Min Si-joon opened the door and was about to go out when he stopped.

He remembered the woman who had watched over his older brother up close.

“And the awakener who came out of the Tutorial, see if you can get her to come to our side as much as possible. I think it would be safer to keep her close.”

🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷🔷

“Wow, your place is nice.”

Siwoo entered his younger brother’s house and gave a sincere compliment.

Shiny marble floors, a living room spacious enough to play soccer in, tasteful decorations, and a magnificent view of Seoul’s night sky.

It was the epitome of the rich man’s house that he had only ever seen in old movies or on TV.

The thought that his younger brother had built all of this by himself without anyone’s help made Siwoo’s lips curl up in a proud smile.

【𝔻𝕒𝕞𝕞𝕚𝕥! 𝕀𝕥’𝕤 𝕤𝕠 𝕙𝕚𝕘𝕙 𝕦𝕡 𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕖! 𝕎𝕖’𝕝𝕝 𝕒𝕝𝕝 𝕕𝕚𝕖 𝕚𝕗 𝕚𝕥 𝕔𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕒𝕡𝕤𝕖𝕤! 𝔾𝕖𝕥 𝕠𝕦𝕥 𝕠𝕗 𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕖, 𝔽𝕠𝕠𝕕! 𝔾𝕠 𝕕𝕚𝕘 𝕒 𝕙𝕠𝕝𝕖 𝕝𝕚𝕜𝕖 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕦𝕤𝕖𝕕 𝕥𝕠!】

Ignoring Freeloader’s squawking from inside, Siwoo finished looking around the house.

“You must have worked hard, my little brother, to buy a house all by yourself. Good job.”

“Oh, it’s nothing. . . I just used the skills you taught me.”

Despite Siwoo’s modest compliments, Min Si-joon felt like he was on cloud nine.

He was the person he most wanted to be recognized by in the world.

After all, he had bought this house with the intention of living with his older brother.

‘𝙄 𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙝𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙙𝙖𝙮 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙚𝙖𝙩 𝙘𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙚𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙘𝙪𝙥 𝙧𝙖𝙢𝙚𝙣 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙮 𝙢𝙮𝙨𝙚𝙡𝙛.’

Min Si-joon swallowed back the tears that were threatening to fall and smiled.

A house with his older brother.
