âWhat did you get?â
Yeongchan hovered around Hyeonu and kept pushing his face close.
âAre you curious?â Hyeonu, who had been ignoring Yeongchanâs behavior for a long time, finally responded to Yeongchan.
âOf course. It is the fifth class advancement, the fifth. You can spend two hours of your livestream on this alone.â
Hyeonuâs question had a very obvious answer. There was no one who wasnât curious about the fifth class advancement. Anyone would be curious when they found out that Hyeonu had done the fifth class advancement.
âIt is to that extent?â Hyeonu looked up and asked as if he had never heard of it. It didnât look like Hyeonuâs usual self.
âAre you kidding me? You are the first to complete the fifth class advancement. I donât know when the next person after you will do it. It isnât just rare now. You are the only one,â Yeongchan spoke enthusiastically.
Hyeonu held out his right hand toward such a Yeongchan.
âWhat is with that hand?â
Yeongchanâs expression distorted.
âGive me money.â
âWhat money?â
âInformation.â
âWhat is money between us?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yeongchan trembled as he tried to pass over it. However, Hyeonu didnât allow it to be passed over.
âThe closer we are, the clearer our business relationship should be. Donât you know that?â
Hyeonu smiled deeply.
â...What do you want?â Yeongchan gritted his teeth and opened his mouth to ask.
âChores for 30 days,â Hyeonu raised three fingers and declared firmly.
âThis jer... I understand. So tell me.â
Yeongchan managed to prevent the curse from popping out reflexively. The information that would come from Hyeonuâs mouth was too important.
âAll my stats increased by 350. I also learned an epic continuous skill. I received an item. I wonât repeat this. Then Iâm asking you to take care of it for the next month.â
Hyeonu patted Yeongchan on the shoulder and disappeared like the wind.
âIt is right that I heard everything, but... why does it feel like I was fooled?â
Left alone, Yeongchan mused over Hyeonuâs words before slowly leaving Lebronâs mansion. Of course, he didnât forget to take a video of every corner of the mansion. It was because all of this would be evidence.

âFriend!!!â Tang-E, who was sitting on Hyeonuâs head, used the top of Hyeonuâs head as a foothold and bounced in the direction of Cancun.
âOuch. Really.â
Hyeonu shook his head several times to get rid of the shock and walked toward Raccoon, who was behind Cancun.
âRaccoon, Iâve met the conditions you said and came,â Hyeonu approached Raccoon and opened his mouth.
There were no greetings. At this moment, Hyeonu was a creditor who came to collect the debt.
[Reached level 400: 400/400.]
[Succeed in the fifth class advancement 1/1.]
Hyeonu worked diligently to meet these two conditions. He deserved to speak firmly to Raccoon.
âAlready? You came back faster than I thought,â Raccoon replied with a surprised expression. There was no displeasure. There was only pure surprise.
âDoesnât that mean Iâm desperately looking for information about the divine world?â
He was desperate. The divine world was a whole new content for Hyeonu. It was a new hunting ground and a new land to show to viewers. It was also the area related to the quest that Hyeonu had to proceed with in the future.
âI should tell you straight away since you are so desperate.â
Raccoon laughed loudly for a long time.
[You have cleared Acquire the Qualifications.]
[Experience has been acquired.]
[You have obtained indirect information related to the location of the divine world.]
âThe divine world... as you know, it isnât on the continent. It is a completely different world like the demon world,â Raccoon started to explain about the divine world. So far, it was content that Hyeonu was familiar with.
âI know that. Iâve been to the demon world,â Hyeonu responded to Raccoon in an urging manner.
âThat means you need something specific to go to the divine world. For example, a magic circle,â Raccoon smiled at Hyeonuâs attitude and continued to explain.
âThatâs right. I used a magic circle to go to the demon world. It is installed in my territory,â Hyeonu once again spoke to Raccoon. It was good to just listen to the explanation, but if he responded like this, Raccoon would explain it faster.
âI will tell you the position of the magic circle. That is enough, right?â Raccoon asked politely.
âYes, that is enough.â
Hyeonu nodded. Telling him the location of the magic circle to go to the divine world was no different from telling him the location of the divine world.
âFind the elves. They have the magic circle to go to the divine world.â
A corner of Raccoonâs mouth rose. The presence of the white fangs increased even further.
âWhere are the elves?â Hyeonu wasnât flustered by Raccoonâs smile and asked what needed to be asked.
âYou have to find that out, right? Still, the elves are definitely somewhere on the continent and they have the magic circle going to the demon world,â Raccoon reiterated what he had said before. It was to show Hyeonu his firm will not to tell the exact location of the magic circle.
âIs it the East Continent or the West Continent? Please answer just this.â
Hyeonu compromised. Rather than the exact location, he wanted to reduce the range of the search.
âReduce it by half, please.â
Hyeonu looked at Raccoon with desperate eyes. Raccoon saw Hyeonuâs eyes and laughed again.
âYou don't have to cross the mountain range.â
Fortunately, Raccoon gave Hyeonu the answer he wanted.
âI donât have to cross the great mountain range...â
The elves were on the West Continent. Raccoonâs tribe was in the Black Forest near Aslan, the village of the beginning.
âIâve reduced it a little bit...â
âThen I will ask you one last thing, Raccoon.â
Hyeonu put his hopes on Raccoon for one more thing. He intended to narrow the scope of the search in the West Continent once more.
âIs it inside the empireâs territory?â
Hyeonuâs question was very important. Depending on Raccoonâs answer, the options given to Hyeonu were insanely reduced. The absence of elves in the territory of the empire would have meant it was unexplored land, but it was okay to wander around.
âWhy are you asking this when you know? What talent can elves have to hide their existence in the midst of humans?â Raccoon answered again. This once again reduced the range. It was a pleasant thing.
âIt is okay.â
Maybe it was because the starting condition was the worst, but even this much felt good.
âI just need to go in three directions.â
Among the four directions, the east was connected to the East Continent. At the same time, it was all the territory of the Yusma Empire.
âI wonât forget this favor.â
Hyeonu bowed politely toward Raccoon. Even if the information wasnât precise, information was information.
âI will never forget.â
Hyeonu would never forget todayâs matter. He buried it well in his heart. If there was a chance to get revenge on Raccoon one day...
He would be reminded of todayâs event without any doubt.
âIâm busy so Iâll be going.â
Hyeonu said goodbye to Raccoon and called out to Tang-E, who was talking in the distance.
Tang-E said something to Cancun before running toward Hyeonu.
âLetâs go, Master dude. I was telling him that we will meet again soon. My friend said he will train hard in the meantime,â Tang-E conveyed to Hyeonu the conversation he had during their brief reunion.
âYes, it is good to work hard. Letâs go, Tang-E.â
Hyeonu carried tang-E and left the Meadow Wolf Tribe.
âThis guy... he will go to Bung Bung Island, right?â Raccoon opened his mouth as he looked at Hyeonuâs rapidly disappearing back.
âIt is very likely. The information you gave is so rough,â Dakan approached Raccoonâs side and spoke to Raccoon.
âSo did you deliver the message well?â Raccoon ignored Dakanâs words and said only what he had to say.
âI told Hugo well. So... is it okay to break the rule like this?â
Dakan visited Bung Bung Island to convey Raccoonâs message after Hyeonuâs last visit. He met Hugo and conveyed Raccoonâs will. That was the problem. Raccoon asked Hugo not to do something.
âRule? Why do I have to keep that? In the first place, the agreement ended decades ago. It is time to make an appearance.â
Raccoon growled. At the same time, a thick fighting energy emerged from his body and filled the meadow.
âEven now, there are places on the continent where hundreds of people are falling down every day. If it is stagnant... it is bound to rot.â
Dakan failed to offer any rebuttal to Raccoonâs words. There was nothing wrong with Raccoonâs words.
âPack up. Go to the league. Wait for him to come.â
***
Objectively, the information that Raccoon gave to Hyeonu was very poor. It was the epitome of unkindness. Hyeonu naturally found Bung Bung Island as Raccoon expected. It was because Hugo, the last bastion, remained.
âHugo.â
Hyeonu encountered Hugo at the outskirts of Bung Bung Island just in time.
âHyeonu? Why did you come to Bung Bung Island?â
âI came here because I have a question.â
âA question? Do you have any questions for me?â
âDo you know where the elves are?â
Hyeonu just asked it. There were no embellishments or extra words. He was straightforward.
âThe elves... why are you asking this? Havenât you been looking for the divine world?â
âThat is how it happened. Now I am looking for the elves.â
Hyeonu smiled bitterly when he saw Hugo pretending not to know. It was Hugo who introduced Raccoon to Hyeonu. He had to know why Hyeonu was looking for the elves now when he should be looking for the divine world.
âWhat are you curious about? This time, I will answer to the best of my knowledge. Instead, it is only one time.â
Hyeonu smiled brightly at Hugoâs answer. It was only once but he would answer to the best of his knowledge. It was an attractive offer.
âAs expected of Hugo.â
It was the last bastion. It was before he asked the question, but Hugoâs attitude was already reliable. He felt like he had already found the elves.
âWhich side of the West Continent are the elves on? The north? West? South?â
Hyeonu didnât overdo it. He was moderately greedy. He asked for a general direction rather than the exact name of a place.
âEven if I know the name, it has no meaning if it is a name I donât know.â
The biggest reason he thought of this was because of Raccoon. The elves were in an unexplored land. It meant it was a land without a name. Naturally, it was highly likely that Hyeonu wouldnât know the name that Hugo gave.
âAs expected, you are smart. The elves are in the southern part of the West Continent. They donât like the hot or cold, so it is natural,â Hugo answered Hyeonuâs question with a surprised expression.
âThe south? The south...â
Hyeonu nodded at the answer while falling deep into thought.
âThe west is the desert and the north is the glacial zone...â
In comparison, the south had dense forests and relatively mild weather. It was no different from a resort compared to the other two places.
âThank you. It was a great help.â
Hugoâs words allowed Hyeonu to reduce his three options to one.
âToday, I will serve you a meal. Letâs go.â
Hyeonu held Hugoâs arm and led him into the village. There was a bright smile on Hugoâs face as he was dragged away.
