Somewhere in Seoul Korea, there stood a small building with the name 'Ajin Guild' plastered in metal hanging at the entrance of the building.

Sung Jin-woo sat in his office desk with his hand clasped together and his mind in deep thought. To Jin Ho who was watching him afar felt like something amiss going on with his hyung.

"Hyung! The hunter association wanted us to enter the S-class Dungeon gate that appeared at the central." Yoo Jin Hoo said, D-Rank Hunter and the official Vice-Guild Leader of Ajin, while holding his phone where the orders from the hunter association are written.

In front of Jin Hoo stood the Guild Leader and the strongest S-Rank Hunter in the world.

"We'll do that now, i had to leave early" Sung Jin-woo said as he went through the dungeon information that the hunter association sent. Truth be told, he would rather be worrying about how to appease a certain brunette than the S-class dungeon.

"Hyung, you have been leaving early this past few days. You mostly stay late and roaming around the streets" Jin Ho said but clump his mouth when he remembers that Jin-woo doesn't like being questioned especially when it comes to personal matters.

Jin Ho felt chills in his spine and doesn't dare to look to his side knowing that right now Jin-woo was staring at him with his calculating gaze.

Jin-woo knew he can't hide her forever, but their agreement stands until the day of the re-evaluation. He needed to wait and to his expectations he shouldn't be worried about hiding anymore, this was the re-evaluation day after all.

"None of your concern. Finish the drafts by tomorrow so that we can enter the hidden dungeon at the floating island" Jin-woo ordered as Jin Ho nodded enthusiastically.

The floating island had submerge two days ago and it's been reported that it might overflow within this week.

'I don't understand why he wanted to finish that dungeon, it wasn't a strong one, even the lower ranks can handle that' Jin Ho thought.

"What i don't understand is that you told the Hunter Association that you wanted that dungeon but they rejected you just because some other guilds had bid through that" Jin Ho said. It is true that the Hunter Association would give him the dungeon if he requested but...

'It's probably because the dungeon is not hard and would rather assign him to the S-Rank dungeon in the West' Jin Ho thought but then realized something.

The hidden dungeon from the floating island is located at the South, and it's been a month since Jin-woo started visiting the South.

"Hyung, is there something in the south that you wanted?" Jin Ho asked as Jin-woo flinched at his question which was unusual because Jin-woo doesnt show his emotion, as in not at all.

Jin-woo felt that Jin Ho is becoming suspicious of his movements for the past months. Who would blame him, it was partially his fault for not being discreet enough.

Jin Ho look at him in surprise, partly because it was the first time he caught Jin-woo in surprise. The lad barely show any emotions other than his family which makes this more special.

"Why do you ask?" Jin-woo asked finally grasping his poise. He faked cough in order to shake away his unprecedented actions.

"Nothing, hyung. It's just this past month you have been focusing at the south, i just thought it's about the hidden dungeon at the floating island but there seems to be another reason" Jin Ho explained and pointed out the dungeon.
