Chapter 5: Ah! Hello There! (1)
[Date: May 22, 2040
A C-Class Gate was created in the Jirisan National Park. Lee Ji-Yeon was active at the D-Class Gate in the Jirisan National Park, and later, entered the newly created Gate. She made a contract with a greater fire spirit and grew from a D-Class Hunter to A-Class Hunter.]

At Jirisan National Park, Kim Ki-Rok sat on a bench that had been temporarily installed next to the D-Class Gate, Goblin Forest. He had been absentmindedly gazed at the sky but swiftly turned his head at the sight of Hunters approaching the Gate.
"Alright, alright."
The target had not arrived yet.
"Alriiight."
Kim Ki-Rok repeated the same words rhythmically, and this time, took out his smartphone.
A C-Class Gate, Garden of Flames, was scheduled to be created on May 22 at 3 p.m.
"It's 9 a.m."
Kim Ki-Rok looked at his smartphone and then toward the entrance straight ahead. The target was supposed to arrive at 9:30 a.m. The target and her temporary companions had then entered the Gate at 10 a.m. and finished their activities at 5 p.m.
