"Director Baek!" A very lousily dressed worker yelled as he burst into his superior''s room.


    The man, having sses, and an untucked shirt, panted as he closed the door behind him in panicky motion.


    One would consider it an act of disrespect that a subordinate would engage in such an act with his superior, but the desperation in Hyun-Shik''s eyes made it apparent that the situation demanded for it.


    "What is it, Captain Hyun?" Baek asked, his brows furrowed, and his eyes narrowed. "You better have a damn good reason for interrupting my nap."


    Thanks to his position as a Director within the Hunters Association, he hardly had time to rest. This was one of the rare moments that he could indulge in a brief office nap, and even then...


    "It''s a huge dimensional spike, sir! The biggest one we''ve ever seen!"


    The moment the Director heard this, all the drowsiness that bogged his mind instantly vanished. Instead, his eyes bulged and he jumped to his feet.


    "W-what?!"


    His body trembled uncontrobly, and his face instantly paled.


    "Did you just say the biggest??!"


    Dimensional Spikes were rted to the appearance of ''Gates'', which opened the door to another world which they called ''Dungeons''


    The bigger the dimensional spike, the more dangerous the Gate was.


    Gates were usually rated based on letters—from F ss, up to S ss.


    "E-even bigger than the one we had over a month ago?"


    "Y-yes... it''s much more intense."


    "KEUK!"


    Director Baek clutched his chest tightly and fought to retain hisposure. Even though he was just in his early thirties, he had a heart problem, and that meant he couldn''t stress his nerves too much.


    Still, wasn''t the situation already too nerve wrecking for him to handle?


    ''We were fortunate that time. Some of our country''s strongest Hunters were killed, leaving only a Guide as the survivor. If it wasn''t for the appearance of that woman, then...''


    However, it was highly unrealistic to hope for yet another miracle.


    "The dimensional spike that ured back then exceeded S ss, and could be said to be SS ss. If that''s the case, then this one will be—"


    "SSS ss, Director. And that''s putting it lightly! I''ve never seen such numbers before sir! We need to act fast!"


    "I know that, damnit!" He growled, once again clutching his chest.


    As his dark hair swayed, he put his brain into action and began to think of alternatives.


    ''Every Gate, without exception, remains stable until a week passes. After that, the dimensional fissure opens, and the Monsters within invades the real world...''


    That was known as a Dungeon Break.


    ''If we even want to have the hope of facing this threat, we need every single powerhouse this world has to offer.'' As Director Beak was still in the process of internal analysis, looking for a way that could guarantee the salvation of his country, and hopefully the world, Hyun Shik recieved a call on his smartphone and engaged the called.


    Mere seconds in, and his eyes nearly popped out of his sses.


    "What?! The Dimensional spike has vanished? What the hell are you saying?"


    The moment Director Baek heard this, his body shook a little.


    Dimensional Spikes vanishing meant only one thing.


    "T-the Dungeon was... cleared...?!"


    But how? Something as powerful as that, that threatened to destroy their entire world, was cleared within mere moments?


    How?


    "It just appeared. How can this be possible?" Hyun Shik muttered in disbelief. "What should we do, Director?"


    At this point, even Baek didn''t know. However, his heart was racing in excitement and curiosity.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    This was an unexpected miracle.


    "Send our best agents to the location. I want eyes and ears on the field. Investigate the area too, and any recent activities that have ured there."


    "We already identified the location to be an abandoned warehouse near the Myeongdong Shopping Street."


    ''What?! The Dimensional spike was there?''


    A famous shopping district in their most populous city, Seoul. Imagining the level of damage and casualties the Dungeon would have wrought brought shivers to Beak''s spine.


    It also didn''t help that his wife worked there, and so did his only daughter.


    Whoever this unknown group saviors was, Baek now owed them a lot more than he had initially imagined.


    It had be personal.


    "Do all you can to investigate the scene well. I want to know everything that happened there, and any activity that urs there."


    "Ah, a message just came in." Hyun Shik checked his smartphone, eyes squinting at the screen.


    "It seems there was a raid by the Special Services recently. Apparently, some Illegal Brokers were using the ce as their base—hiding in in sight and all."


    Baek couldn''t believe it. Could the Brokers have been responsible for such amazing feats?


    Were they the cause?


    ''Our devices are top-notch, so they couldn''t have mistaken the Dimensional Spike. Then... could it be—''


    "Ah, it seems among the list of those arrested, there are two who weren''t on the suspect list. They also seem to be foreigners."


    Something about those words resonated with Baek, reminding him of a simr scenario that ured over a month back.


    "Those men... were they dressed strangely?" Baek asked.


    "Y-yes. I''ll send the footages to yourptop now." Hyun-Shik replied, transferring the files instantly.


    "One was especially dressed as an old-school wizard. Investigation and interrogations willmence soon, but—"


    "It''s them! It has to be!" Director Baek''s eyes gleamed brightly as he looked at the screen of theptop ced neatly on his desk.


    Seeing one yellow blond hair, and another golden blond hair, it reminded him of yet another blond foreigner that graced their country just recently.


    Unlike her, however, they looked much younger. Being generous with his estimation, he ced them within the range of theirte teens.


    Still, the mystery surrounding them, coupled with the simrity they had with the other single case they had of something so strange, provided Director Baek with his conclusion.


    And so, he finally stopped holding his chest and smiled instead.


    "Are these therades you spoke of... Miss Aloe Vida?"
