PAID Chapter 267
I met the former Swordmaster at a cafe near the Eternal Guild after a long time.
Since the guild headquarters is strictly off-limits to men, it had become an unspoken rule for hunters of the Eternal Guild to meet with non-female outsiders at nearby cafes.
I could technically go inside, but I didn't want to make a fuss.
“You look like you're about to die, Yuseong,” Kang Ra-hye said with a sly smile, her speech now completely adjusted to this world.
She had become quite famous as a hunter after teaming up with Kang Yuna and clearing gates. As a result, the way people looked at her had changed drastically—from distrust and skepticism to admiration and awe.
“Do I really look that bad?”
“Enough to make me want to ask what happened.”
“I got kicked out because they’re preparing for my birthday party and told me to stay out for a while.”
Since we were in a public space with plenty of eyes and ears around, I kept my words vague. This way, it would sound like I had been kicked out while they were renting a venue to prepare for the party.
Of course, Kang Ra-hye, who knew the truth, wasn’t fooled. Her eyes widened a little.
“Oh, Yuseong, it’s your birthday? Why didn’t you tell me? I’m hurt.”
“There wasn’t really time for that.”
“…True, I guess. It’s not like either of us had much time to celebrate birthdays.”
When Ra-hye first came to this world, she marked the day the gates appeared as her birthday. She really didn’t have time to celebrate. As for me, my birthday in this world had already passed.
“Losing an arm isn’t a bad price to pay. I can always celebrate next year.”
She waved the stump where her right arm used to be. There were already rumors about her missing arm. Most of them were jokes about her leaving it behind in the other world, but some hunters, particularly those with sword skills, had serious theories that she was originally right-handed but had to switch to using her left.
“Doesn’t it bother you?”
“I’ll just have to get used to it.”
She still seemed determined not to get her arm fixed. I wondered if she knew about all the crazy rumors going around about her missing arm and eye.
“Isn’t it a good thing, though? If they kicked you out, they must be going all out with the preparations. It’s nice to be celebrated in a big way, right?”
