Chapter 45: I think, this is it for me....

[Inside Azaroth's Gangnam Villa]

The room was clean and smelled very nice.

The curtains were slightly open, allowing the sunlight to enter the room and the air conditioner was at perfect number, giving the room a very cozy vibe.

There was a big bed in the middle of the room with two drawers attached to the sides.

A beautiful woman was sleeping on the bed with a blissful expression. Her eyebrows slightly twitched as she shifted in the bed.

"Ugh... why is my body hurting..?" 

Yoo Soohyun awoke with a groan, sunlight piercing her aching head.

"Whose room is this..? Ah! "As fuzzy memories returned, her eyes flew open in horror- she was in Azaroth's bed!

Flashes of suddenly kissing him in the restaurant then coming to his villa late last night, requesting him to take the pain away.... 

T-then, giving her virginity to him and moaning like a crazy s..slut under him... and then passing out...

'W..What have I done!?'

How unladylike she must have seemed!

"Ugh... my chest, hands, and that region is sore..." She remembered Azaroth's face when he had lifted her blindfold.

The taste of his lips, the sweat on his chiseled body, and the look in his eyes. And how she was chanting his name again and again as she squirted all over the bed.

"I can't believe what I di— Uww~ it hurts." She smiled a little but her lips twitched with a painful throb.

Speaking of which, she looked around herself in confusion.

She and her surroundings were fully clean. 

She was wearing a new set of comfy clothes, her body was fully cleaned and her hair was shining.

'Did... did he...' She touched her hair and it was so clean and smooth. She, as a rich lady, had used a lot of expensive shampoo and conditioner, but this... this was not a result someone could get from those luxury brands.

*Knock-knock!*

She heard someone knocking on the door, "C-Come in." She said.

The door opened. A maid entered with tea on a tray.

"Hello, Miss Yoo. I'm Eun Su, Master Azaroth's maid." The maid bowed a little.

"Would you like some tea, Miss Yoo? I've prepared 'Da Hong Pao' for you" The maid asked with a smile.

SooHyun was surprised, it was her favorite tea. But she usually used it for a celebratory occasion.

Da Hong Pao – $1.2 Million Per Kilogram.

Da Hong Pao, the legendary Big Red Robe, is steeped in history and rarity. Priced at an astonishing $1.2 million per kilogram or $2,400 per cup, this tea is a symbol of opulence and tradition.

"Oh! thank you," Soohyun said, taking the cup. 

SooHyun looked at the maid and thought that, maybe she was the one who cleaned her body and changed her into new clothes.

As the maid curtsied to leave, SooHyun stopped her to confirm her suspicions, 

"Wait!" she called, face reddening. "Did you...clean me last night?"

The maid shook her head. "I'm afraid not. I'm entering this room for the first time today and no other maid has even seen the interior of this room, miss. I don't know what you are talking about."

'T... that... that means.. he really was the one who.. did all this...?'

 Smoke seemed to rise from Soohyun's head in mortification.

She hid behind her teacup, recalling blurred memories of her last night.

"W-Where is Azaroth?"

"The master had urgent business and departed. But he asked I ensure you're comfortable in his absence." She said, "After that, he'll go to the Hunters Guild as he had a raid scheduled with the members of Team B."

Hearing to the maid, SooHyun sighed in relief.

She was glad Azaroth was not here. She doesn't know how to face him right now.

[Inside the Hunters Guild]

Choi Jong was sitting at his desk looking at the exploits reports of the previous day's dungeon raid.

He is very happy.

He was the leader of the first squad but since he is usually busy with his Guild Master work. Hunter Cha Hae-in mostly led the first squad.

The S-rank hunters were rare and most of them had their own guild. He had thought to make Son Kihoon- a promising A-Rank hunter affiliated with the Hunters Guild- the leader of the second squad.

(Son Kihoon image)

But now, things were different. 

An A-rank hunter can be indeed very powerful but in front of an S-rank..? 

Insignificant.

And now, he has an S-rank... plus he is a family member, meaning he can be trusted more.

Long story short, he has given Azaroth a mission to lead the 2nd squad.

*knock-knock*

"Guild Master, may I enter." A knock came with a familiar female voice.

Choi Jong pushed his glasses and the excited expression on his face suddenly changed into a gentle one.

"Please Come in," He said in a charming tone.

"Yes!" Choi Jong-in's secretary entered his office with urgency in her expression. 

" Master Choi, the 2nd squad is ready to depart for the A-rank dungeon in an hour, " she reported.

However, she continued with visible concern, "Sir Azaroth has not been reachable by phone since this morning. Repeated calls go unanswered."

"Hmm.." Choi Jong hummed with understanding.

"Sir, Should I ask Miss Cha to lead the squad, or should we—" She was saying something but was cut off by Choi's words.

"Haha, no need to contact Hunter Cha, she had just completed a dungeon raid yesterday." He said nonchalantly then smiled.

"As for Azaroth, he is a busy man, after all, haha, I'm sure he will come in time," He said with a reassuring tone, easing the tension of his secretary.

"Ok, Master Choi. Then I'll be going" The secretary bowed.

Choi Jong-in nodded his dismissal, but worry lingered in his mind.

He thought that Azaroth was excited about this raid... Now his phone is not reachable?

"*sigh* Maybe did a lot of parties last night and is now sleeping."

[Inside the D-rank Dungeon]

Mr. Song and Lee Joohee were slowly and cautiously exploring their tunnel with full alertness.

A sudden, agonized scream pierced the air.

"Ah! Mr. Song. What's going on" Lee Joohee said as she looked at the walls with a fearful expression.

"I think we should hurry and check it out," Mr. Song said.

The scream came from afar, so they were not able to recognize the voice.

Soon they exited the left tunnel and looked at the other two tunnels.

When JooHee was about to say something, they heard another scream.

Lee Joohee was startled, blood running cold.

Mr. Song grimaced. "That voice belongs to Mr. Sok! Let's go in their direction, let's Hurry!"

"Mr. Kim and Mr. Sok were together! Did they find the boss!?"

She struggled to keep pace as Mr. Song broke into a sprint, she clenched her staff with white knuckles.

She heard another scream and fear crawled up her spine - what threat could overpower Mr. Sok and Mr. Kim inside this Goblin dungeon?

When she thought about something abnormal happening inside this D-rank dungeon, she remembered that statue again!

'Haa!'

Her eyes widened as she saw a shining dagger inches away from her eye.

To be continued....

Author Note:

How was the chapter? 

Although short, I think it was good, 1st SooHyun's embarrassment, then Hunters Guild's trouble, and then back to Joohee.

I think the next chap will be a banger!
