At the time of his appointment with Ian, there were six people gathered in front of the Lord.

Among them, Remir and Hun were recruited by Ian himself, and the other five asked Hers to recruit them into decent rankers.

But the funny thing was, there were four of the best rankers by profession at this fast-paced party.

Ian, who was first in the ranking of the Zaitanese Summoner, and Remir, who was first in the ranking of the Wizard. And the unknown, but unofficial rank number one in the Black Wizard rankings is almost certain. Finally, Levia, the number one priestly ranked by Hers to join the party.

It was a super-rich party.

The other three users were also skilled within the top 100 in their job rankings, but were forced to shrink within the party structure.

“Why isn't Ian coming, by the way? I have less than two minutes until my appointment time.... ”

Towards the snorting hoon, Hers says a bloody smile.

“Have you seen Ian late for his appointment, boy? Where would he come from in time, like a knife? ”

Herce is now ranked between the 80th and 90th place in the Knights ranking, with remarkable growth.

That's why Ian put Herce in the party without hesitation.

Although Fioran is more powerful than Hers, she has decided to defend the Central Continent.

Pie Outpost in the middle of the battlefield in the middle of the battle.

Fioran, the lord there, had too much to do.

It was also because the Wizard position already had the best card called Remir.

“Well... yes. ”

Hun was secretly obedient to Hers.

Hun was not yet an official guild member, but he was almost a guild member and Hers was a guild master.

The reason Hun hasn't become a guild member yet is not different.

It was because there was still no place in the Lotus Guild.

Of course, there was a way to defeat a guild member who lacked competence, but that was not the way Hers operated.

So now, in the Lotus Guild, there were so many guild members waiting to join, it was hard to count the books one by one.

As soon as the rankings of the Lotus Guild were promoted to the territory or country, Hers was expected to apply certain criteria to receive them all.

Since the maximum number of available guild members increased every time they were promoted from the territory, there should be enough free time.

“Hmm, I'm so nervous... ”

Remir mutters, and Levia next to him asks.

“What are you nervous about, Lemir? ”

When asked by Levia, Lemir slapped her hand with a gorgeous expression.

“No, I was just talking to myself, to myself... By the way, how did Levia end up at this party? ”

Levia scratches her back head and replies.

She was very beautiful, but there was a corner of her that looked dazed.

“Well... I need Ian for a quest I'm working on. But if I help Ian, he has to help me... No, will you help me? ”

“Hmm... I see... ”

I don't know, but I think he's a peculiar person, and Lemir has mind control (?).

Before starting a hard-core hunt with Ian, it was essential to find peace of mind.

“Inerpith.... ”

But then...

The atmosphere in front of the gathering of six users began to rattle, frightening to the promised time.

Ooh-ooh-ooh!

Hun, who found it, looks embarrassed and reaches out to Skull Wand.

“Well, what is it? Is there even a new wave here?! ”

Seeing the solemn look on Hoon's face, Hers shakes his head.

“Ian's portal opens. Wait a little longer. ”

At Hers' words, everyone looked curiously at the distorted view of the room, and about 10 seconds later, a portal of blue light appeared in the distorted space.

Weeing-!

And inside, a man with dirt all over his body popped out.

“Heave-ho!”

His identity, of course, was Ian.

He originally tried to close his eyes until all the dimensional beads were occupied, but even that was a waste of time, so he came out hunting until now.

Ian looks around and smiles brightly.

“Wow, you're all here. Thank you. You will be blessed. ”

“ …. ”

As soon as Lemir checked Ian's bones, he realized something was wrong.

‘Ugh... I heard that monster was coming to rest, but he must have been hunting for some time now. ’

Meanwhile, Ian, who found Levia, tilted his head and reached out to her.

“Hi, I'm Ian. I don't have a good memory... Are you one of us? ”

In Ian's question, Levia shakes her head with a smile, and Hers in the back smiles bloody and introduces her instead.

“Levia, who has been assisting our guild for weeks now, has been participating in the World War. You're number one in the priesthood. ”

“Oh... yeah...? ”

I didn't remember exactly, but I had heard the name Levia even though Ian was not very interested in rankers.

And with that, Ian thought it would be a huge power surge.

‘Okay, this kind of party is enough to raise 6,000 duchess. ’

Ian reaches out for the portal.

“Now, you can all enter this portal. Please hurry, it's only a two-minute portal and we need to get inside. ”

Ian said the party members hurriedly moved into the portal, and Ian also followed them back into the portal.

And as everyone enters the portal, the portal's door slowly shrinks, about ten seconds later, and then disappears, as if it were open.

* * *

“Now, let me tell you my plan. ”

Ian successfully brought six people to South Island, with the exception of himself.

Ian started by inviting everyone to the party and sharing the quest.

He also explained the quest in great detail.

But in the end, it was the second appeal to a rigorous hunt.

“So to conclude... we need to catch as many monsters as possible as soon as possible. ”

“Well…. ”

“It takes about a week for this dimensional marble to be recharged. I intend to put 6,000 points of empire public value in it. ”

Hearing Ian's explanation, Herce asks a question.

“Do we need to collect the public values and raise the status of the Mauritian Empire? And what was the benefit of that? ”

Ian shakes his head and replies to Hers.

“In order to get a new identity, I need to go ahead with a quest to get an identity card... I don't have time for that right now. That means you can't rank as public except for me. But that doesn't mean that public values are useless. Either way, it raises your status as a public figure, but it also allows you to exchange it for good items. ”

“Aha... ”

After that, a few more explanations of Ian followed, and Remir who was listening quietly asked Ian.

“But, Ian, ”

“Yes.”

“What about us…. ”

“Tell me. ”

“If Ian doesn't open the portal, isn't there any way to get back? ”

Everyone's gaze gathers toward Ian's mouth, and Ian's mouth's tail slightly dries up.

“Bingo...! ”

“Phew…. ”

Seeing Lemir in despair, Ian adds a note.

“So let's go hunting. If you collect all 60 million Public Officials, even if you don't want to go, I'll send them all back. because you're going to have to go back very soon and stop the invaders. ”

Lemir shakes his head.

“Luckily, you're aware of that. ”

Ian's words continued again.

“Now, let's move. If you come, there are some dungeons saved up to attack. ”

Hun, who was still, asked Ian.

“How many average dungeons are there, bro? ”

Ian replied with a expressionless expression.

“Well… about 350-400?” “…?! ”

Ian says all but Remir and Levia have bled out of their faces.

Remir was not surprised at all because he had already hunted Ian and his legendary horseshoe, level 300 and below, and Levia just didn't seem to have much in mind.

Herce stutters and asks Ian.

“Hey, isn't that... too dangerous? ”

Ian answered with a snap of his finger.

“No, no, no. That's enough power. If this power fits well enough, we can take out a 450-level dungeon, not a 350-level one. ”

“ …. ”

“And I'll be at the top of the dungeon tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so be strong. ”

“... Did I... come here for nothing...? ”

Ignoring Hers' self-muttering, Ian turns around and starts walking inside the dungeon.

And as soon as I entered the dungeon, Remir, Hun, and Hers' eyes immediately changed.

And so began the sparta hunt at Ian's party.

* * *

“Hun, hang up a wide slope and fall back! Death Knight, take care of your life! Let's start casting your wide-area now! ”

“Okay, brother. ”

“Yes, Ian. ”

The more people there were, the harder it was to fit the feet.

Of course, finding a role to fit into his position was not difficult, but Ian's desired party-play was not such a basic level.

‘Well, I didn't expect retaliation from the dead in there, but Hun definitely has a sense of game. ’

But Ian's party was no ordinary party.

It really was a party of top rankers by profession, and they instinctively knew what they were doing to hunt effectively without Ian's specific instructions.

And their own superior personality.

Ian's party almost made it to the orbit he wanted after exactly 30 minutes.

‘At least I don't see any answers. I feel like Hers is the biggest hole in the world. ’

Ian's party totaled seven people.

Together, however, with their respective housewives and summons, it was almost eighty parties, and a battle was ongoing that reminded them of a small war.

“I think it's the boss over there, Ian! ”

Levia screams at Ian as she walks forward, putting heels in every corner.

Then Ian turns around and nods.

There was a giant in a golden hood, and he looked like the boss of the dungeon.

‘I came in from the easiest dungeon... but everyone's better than I thought. ’

The creation of the dungeon boss was a proof that the clearance rate was over 95%, which was much faster than Ian expected.

Especially Ian, who was amazed by Levia's ability.

In all these years, Ian has rarely hunted with a proper ranker priest class.

Earlier, some ranker priests helped Ian at the Temple of Water in Pyro, but they were not able to sense their abilities because it was such a massive battle.

And Levia, ranked # 1, had a different level of control, even compared to them.

‘I don't think I've ever seen Overheal...! ’

Ordinary priests had a tendency to waste their healing skills in difficult situations.

The more party members there are, the more work Hiller has to do, and when he puts his skills to work, he makes a lot of mistakes using healing skills on allies that are already at full health.

But Levia was different.

She was using recovery skills perfectly efficiently without wasting any of the most basic recovery skills.

The level of Levia's control was extraordinary, even in Ian's view of the chaotic control as a balcony.

‘I can play a little more boldly. ’

Ian summons Harley onto his back and picks up the Spirit King's judgment.

Up until now, I have played overall combat command and support in the rear, but now I intend to move forward more actively.

I felt like I could fight as much as I wanted with this party behind my back.
