The Hero

Volume 8 – Motive

Chapter 5

Many stories regarding Rank S Heroes were written on the internet, most of which were telling heroic tales regarding them. There were so many stories for each Hero, that it didn"t seem possible for them to do it all.

Haneul had never seen a Rank S Hero in person.

Within the rift of the East area, he had met Burning Soul, and had a.s.sumed that he was a Rank A Hero. He later then found out that Burning Soul was actually Rank S.

While emitting scarlet flames, Burning Soul didn"t look like the average human, so it was understandable that such an amazing person was considered to be Rank S. However, as for himself……

YooShik got closer.

"Is there a problem with the results?"

"I can"t really say that it"s a problem, but there may have been a mistake with the tests."

"No. There are no problems with the results. We are planning on adjusting your rank as soon as possible. Only, it will take some time for us to receive permission for it. The standard procedures become a little more complicated once you become a Rank S Hero, so I hope you understand."

"…….I understand."

He wasn"t completely convinced yet, but there was no point in denying the test results. As Haneul was about to walk out, YooShik quickly added in.

"Will I be able to see you again tomorrow?"

"Didn"t you say the tests were complete?"

"I can"t say that everything is complete yet. We have yet to figure out anything regarding your special ability."

"It"s not like I can"t come back tomorrow, but is it okay for you to be giving me so many bonuses?"

YooShik laughed.

"Don"t worry about it. Then, I"ll see you tomorrow. Your bonus for today should have already been deposited into your account."

"You"re quite fast."

"Of course. We"re different from the other government agencies."

As YooShik said that, he slightly lowered his head.

His att.i.tude was completely different from when Haneul had met him for the first time. Before, YooShik seemed to speak to him as if he was slightly above him. However, now it was different. YooShik spoke in a careful manner, making sure that there was no discomfort for Haneul.

With this, it showed how high Haneul"s position was within the Organization.

The moment YooShik got back into his office, he relayed some orders to his HR team. It was regarding the rank change for Haneul, and to provide an aide for Haneul"s use.

Night had already fallen outside.

The tests took much longer than planned.

"Is there really an outstanding ability within me?"

"Umm.."

As Haneul was lost in thought, someone called out to him. He quickly turned his head to see who it was, and found MinHee standing in front of him. Everyone had been waiting for him outside.

"You came out late. Was there something more to discuss?"

"If I knew everyone was waiting outside, I would have just come straight out."

"Don"t worry about it. Even if we waited, it"s only been about 5 minutes. Anyways, what"s your name, oppa?"

(Djinn - not sure how many of you know this, but oppa means older brother. Females say oppa, while males say hyung)

"Huh?"

"Your name. Silver Knight is too long, and more than anything, you"re not Silver Knight right now. Right?"

"Ah, I forgot I haven"t told you my name yet. It"s Haneul Kang."

"What a pretty name. Haneul oppa, you already know my name, right? It"s Minhee Joo."

"Yeah, I know it"s a little late to say this, but I"m glad to see that you"re doing well. It hasn"t been long since the hospital incident, shouldn"t you be resting a bit more?"

"No. I"m completely fine!"

MinHee laughed out loud.

"That"s great to hear. You didn"t look too well the last time I saw you."

"It"s all thanks to you, oppa. If it wasn"t for you, I would already be dead."

"That"s not true, even if it wasn"t me….."

"No. The person who had saved me at that moment, was you. You"re the one that had saved my life, so there"s no point in you saying anything else."

MinHee stuck her hand out.

"Huh?"

"Hurry and give it to me."

"Give what?"

"Your phone. Aren"t we going to exchange numbers? You are the savior of my life, so let"s continue to keep a friendly relationship."

"A, alright."

Haneul took out his phone.

"Wow, isn"t this like 2 years old?"

"Well, it just happened that way. I had no reason to switch it, and it"s pretty durable."

"Hmm."

MinHee was happy with anything Haneul had to say, as she proceeded to dial a number. From her own phone, a lively ringtone could be heard, and it was a pop song that Haneul liked.

Without thought, he began to hum to the music. MinHee"s eyes grew wide as she stared up at Haneul.

"You like this song?"

"Ah, yeah. I like it."

"Wow, there aren"t that many people that like this song. Do you think this is fate?"

"What?"

Haneul laughed as if what she said was funny.

"By the way, your voice when you wear your armor is husky, but why is it that it sounds different now? I was sure that you were an old man with that voice."

"Ah, I"m able to change my voice through the armor."

"Hmm, I see. Although I like that deep, husky voice, I think I like your current voice even more. Either way, let"s go eat together!"

Thinking as if it was a good idea, JoongHyun walked closer to Haneul.

"That"s right. We"re gathered like this, so we should at least eat together."

Haneul nodded his head, as he slightly glanced to his side.

Shiver.

Minah was glaring at him with a fearsome expression.

"It seems like she"s still mad at me."

Seeing Minah"s disposition, Haneul was sure that she wouldn"t agree to eating dinner together.

"Okay. Let"s eat together."

Minah willingly consented, with a slightly stiff expression, as Haneul felt that the dinner arrangement would be an uncomfortable one.

Chapter 5 Completed.
