The Second Date

“I’m sending you to a date, but you’re starting a dating scandal.”
“Jiye. Wouldn’t that mean we achieved the purpose of the date?”
“Constellation-nim. Your speech has certainly improved in that one day. This Jiye is truly happy, but I’m scolding you right now.”
“I’ll be quiet.”
But since my arms were starting to hurt, I abandoned the two and became a jellyfish.
Floating around was very comfortable.
Jiye’s sermon continued for about 2 more hours.
It was basically about ‘I told you to be careful of reporters day and night, but you didn’t avoid them and started a dating scandal, do you know how much of a headache I had because of the chairman I was reported to yesterday’.
She must have had a hard time.
I flew over and stroked Jiye’s head.
Of course, Jiye still asked what she had to ask.
Jiye’s question flew to Sion.
“Yeon Taeseon is.”
“He won.”
With those words, the sermon ended.
I didn’t need to be told what he had won.
It must be the kiss.
Yeon Taeseon, with a face soaked in defeat, stretched his stiff arms.
He looked like he wanted to leave right away because he was so displeased.
He asked Jiye with a slightly sullen face.
“Is that all you have to say?”
“Of course not.”
Jiye, who had instantly returned to work mode, held out a tablet with a screen on it to us.
“The HN Group chairman gave us a new gate as a taste of their support.”
“For free?”
“For free.”
Although Sion had a suspicious expression, Jiye just shrugged her shoulders.
“But the timing of the gate’s appearance is a bit strange, and it’s a bit suspicious that he came as if he had been waiting for it.”
“When did it appear?”
“3 hours ago.”
3 hours ago was when we had just cleared the sudden gate.
And considering Jiye’s sermon time, he had negotiated with her about 2 hours and 30 minutes ago, so he came in just 30 minutes?
I also made a suspicious jellyfish face along with Sion.
“It must be a show of force. It’s annoying, but he was just really fast, and there were no procedural problems.”
“If we receive their sponsorship, we won’t have to worry about gates?”
“Something like that. Well, we’ve received this gate for now. It’s suspicious, but we’re in a gate drought right now.”
Jiye displayed a contract on the tablet.
Since there were a lot of complicated technical terms, I turned my head, but Sion read it well.
“There are no toxins.”
“It’s rather to our advantage. Ah, the gate’s special features are down there.”
The contract really did state that the gate was being transferred to us.
Below it, a few photos were attached.
What was visible in the photos were characters written in the ancient Barak language.
“Pikku?”
No, wait.
Ancient Barak?
I turned into a human and snatched the tablet.
It was certain.
This was the ancient Barak language used in magic circles in my previous life.
“Constellation.”
“Seonbaek.”
“Yes, Seonbaek. What is it?”
“Is there something strange?”
I looked at the photos a little more.
A magical mapping based on my spatial perception was created in my other hand that was not holding the tablet.
The second and fourth photos, the fifth and sixth photos.
It didn’t take long to combine all the photos.
There were some empty spaces in between, but that could be calculated as a variable.
About 3 minutes later.
After creating a blueprint of a certain cave, I was sure.
‘It’s the trace of a dimensional jump magic circle.’
The cave wall was ground down by one of the thousand magic circles used in dimensional jump magic.
Then this is where Daisy is.
Though it’s a little strange.
‘The dimensional jump magic circle should have dropped directly to Earth. Why is it a gate?’
Although I had a question, Daisy’s dimensional jump was a very luxurious magic that not only crossed space-time but also used fragments of me and the Returning Hourglass.
So it’s inevitable that a variable would occur.
Jiye, who saw me concentrating, put on her fashion glasses.
“Who’s going?”
The three of them raised their hands.
It was the second date.

The Crow’s Ruins was in a very bad mood.
Because he had become a penniless person with no coins in an instant.
Because of that, he couldn’t even support his contractors, and he was living a life of poverty day by day.
It was even more frustrating because he had been very rich just a few days ago.
‘I have to get Siyoon back.’
Among his contractors, he was by far the most useful and the only S-rank.
He couldn’t lose him.
S-ranks are so precious, how could he lose one over something like this.
‘And I have to get one over on that Silent Calamity, too.’
The Crow’s Ruins had been thinking a lot lately.
How to overcome this situation with no coins.
In reality, the answer was already decided.
It was just that it was a waste.
Jingle.
Several golden gears shook in The Crow’s Ruins’ hand.
It was a fragment of the ‘Returning Hourglass’.
While the Silent Calamity was busy with other things, he had his many contractors collect golden gears and offer them to him.
A fragment of a Constellation is a very powerful force and causality.
With just this, he could realize the plan he was thinking of.
But there was only one chance.
So he had to be careful.
The sea of blood that covered the nebula of The Crow’s Ruins bubbled and boiled, and then spit out a man with lavender hair.
It was Lilac, who had contracted with him and had his soul eaten.
Originally, contractors are only bound by a ‘contract’, but a direct contract that doesn’t go through the official system window is a different story.
Their souls are eaten by the Constellation.
“It’s not like I couldn’t spy on that gate.”
Although there was a huge price of losing one gear, it was well worth it.
To think that one of the guys he had contracted with for fun was the lifelong disciple of the Silent Calamity.
‘Easy to use.’
The Crow’s Ruins smiled, curling his lips.
‘Even if I die, I’m taking you with me. Silent Calamity.’

The departure date for the gate was quickly decided.
Yeon Taeseon also received a proper grade measurement under the supervision of the association president, not just a rushed one, and quickly completed the stability test.

[The Silent Calamity, another S-rank!]
[A high-rank hunter with every contract, who is the Silent Calamity?]
A lot of articles came out in the process, but.
There was no time for web surfing.
Jiye asked worriedly.
“Are you going in that form?”
“Yeah.”
Flutter-
I said, putting on the last piece of my outerwear with the guild crest on it.
Meaning, I was in my human form, wearing the guild uniform.
Jiye briefly admired how pretty it was and then continued.
“I’m a little worried. The Constellation is afraid of other people’s gazes.”
“It’s fine.”
I patted Jiye’s head.
Of course, I still felt a sense of rejection, but it was just a sense of rejection, not fear.
Because my perspective had changed thanks to Han Sion and Yeon Taeseon.
I was able to fully accept the affection that was meant for me.
So I was also happy to accept Jiye’s concern for me.
“I’ll be back.”
After finishing my preparations, I went to the two who were waiting for me.
Now, Sion said with a look of ecstasy that he didn’t even try to hide.
“You’re beautiful…”
Yeon Taeseon turned his head.
I could see the tips of his ears turning red, so I didn’t touch him.
I held out my hand.
“Let’s go.”
The two held my hand.
And I immediately moved to the coordinates in front of the gate.
Today was the official debut of my human form.
“They’re here!”
“What? The car didn’t come.”
“It’s teleportation magic!”
The reporters, who were chatting peacefully, frantically flashed their cameras.
Although it wasn’t as urgent as a sudden gate, and it wasn’t as sensational as the guide raid with the Crow Guild.
Still, a considerable number of reporters had flocked to us.
Click-click-click-click!
Flashes went off randomly.
“But that woman…”
“You saw that post too, right?”
“You have to see it as a reporter.”
The reporters, who were murmuring for a moment, pushed through and we approached the front of the gate.
“Wait a minute!”
A reporter boldly raised his hand and said.
“This raid is for only two hunters! If the woman enters, it will be considered illegal!”
“Th-that’s right!”
“No, think about it. She probably just came to see them off.”
A reporter raised his little finger as if to mock.
“If it’s ‘this’. You’re having a rather grand romance.”
Hmm. That makes sense.
But it was an expected question.
And I’m not dating these guys yet.
I pretended to think for a moment, then turned my head and looked at the two people standing behind me in turn.
“Does a Constellation have to register as a hunter?”
“Of course not.”
“There’s no law related to Constellations.”
“Then there’s no problem. Let’s go.”
With those words, we entered the gate.
The outside of the gate was quiet.
A dazed voice echoed among the surprised, open-mouthed reporters.
“A Constellation…?”
