After checking all the information and coming back, only Kim Chae-eun was there, not Yoo Eun-seol.

Kim Chae-eun looked at me and asked with a tilt of her head.

“What took you so long?”

“Sorry. I was just checking the Holder information for a moment. Where is Holder Yoo Eun-seol?”

“She said she would go on a brief reconnaissance. She woke up when you left, Jae-hyun.”

As she said, Yoo Eun-seol came back in no time.

She was standing on the path over the hill.

We moved quickly towards her.

“I’m sorry for being late.”

“No, it’s okay. I did a little reconnaissance and...”

Yoo Eun-seol pointed to the rocky mountain on the right.

“It looks like the boss room is over there.”

Wow.

I couldn’t help but admire her.

Is an S-grade Holder who mainly solos really different?

The direction Yoo Eun-seol pointed out was exactly towards the boss room.

The highest hill in the middle and the rocky mountain on the right.

That was the direction of the Stained Rock Pile’s boss room.

She’s an assassin, so she wouldn’t have any exploration runes, but it was amazing how she found out in such a short time.

She didn’t actually go there herself, did she?

I nodded my head and asked,

“Shall we get going then?”

“Yes.”

The journey to the boss room was comfortable.

The same battle structure continued as before.

A new B-grade monster called ‘Silver Wolf’ appeared after the Gray Wolf and Black Wolf... but for our party, with Yoo Eun-seol as the main dealer, there wasn’t a hint of danger.

Whether she was completely out of range of status abnormalities or not, Yoo Eun-seol moved lightly and took care of us.

“I’m fine.”

Fortunately, I didn’t have any major problems either.

This was thanks to [Ice-Cold Focus]’s special effect.

[Ice-Cold Focus] is a rare rune that I acquired from Min Chae-hwan, who used to be a spy in Hunting Team 5 before.

It not only assists in hitting long-range attacks more accurately but also helps to recover quickly from status abnormalities. It’s a mental type rune.

Although it wasn’t immune to everything, so I did stiffen up for a moment, but I quickly recovered from the status abnormality and could move my body.

“Eh....”

But it seemed like Kim Chae-eun had a bit of trouble with status abnormality.

Even though Barg and other wolf monsters around him started rushing towards us, she couldn’t move her body or use magic power.

Yoo Eun-seol looked at her and turned her gaze towards me.

“Can Holder Do Jae-hyun take care of escorting her? I’ll deal with this quickly.”

“Ah, yes. Got it.”

Awoooo-!!

The battle began.

Barg, an A-grade monster, and a few wolf monsters protecting him rushed towards us.

Yoo Eun-seol showed off her martial arts skills once again and reached Barg in no time.

It was a move to take out the boss, who was considered the most difficult, first.

Seeing her, I also drew [Penitent’s Sword].

My task is to escort Kim Chae-eun and tank.

It would be more efficient to hold a shield for escorting, but there are six wolves rushing towards us.

It might be a better defense to wield a sword and attack them as it’s hard to block attacks from all directions.

Awoooo-!!

Three Silver Wolves rushed towards us first.

Out of the six, three were Silver Wolves.

Two were Black Wolves, and one was a Gray Wolf.

The three types of wolf monsters each had clear characteristics.
