Chapter 354 – Mother’s Day (6)
The time was two days ago.
The day the guild candidates, except for Han Joo-yeon, sat together in the club room.
“Let’s decide on a guild name.”
With Shin Yoo-jung’s words, the meeting to decide the name of the guild that will become their signboard began.
“Isn’t that usually decided by the guild leader himself… ?”
A very common sense tackle from Im Na-eun.
Then Shin Yoo-jung answered by pointing her chin at Kim Do-jin, who was pouting her lips with a dissatisfied expression.
“He has a bad naming sense. No, it’s so devastating that even the word “Grid” Can’t express it all!”
“Ah, yes, that’s right…”
Im Na-eun hurriedly backs away at her domineering momentum.
As a result, whether or not Kim Do-jin’s face was grumpy, the meeting began.
“Everyone, just say one name that sounds good to you.”
Elena was the first to raise her hand.
“Valhalla, how are you?!”
Judging by how he answered as if he had waited, it seems that the word was engraved in his heart in some way.
Pretty good name.
Shin Yoo-jung immediately typed ‘Valhalla’ in the search bar on her smartphone and touched her search button.
“Ah, it’s the name of a guild that already exists.”
“Ah, ah…”
Elena sat down sullenly.
“Any other names?”
In response to her repeated question, Naeun Im cautiously raised her hand this time.
“How is Mir… ? It means dragon in pure Korean.”
“There is.”
“Prepare?!”
“That too.”
“Ooh, there are so many guilds in our country?!”
“A lot. 90% of them disappear sooner or later, but they are still in use.”
The guild, founded on youthful ambition and swollen dreams for success, soon disappears without sound or rumor.
It is because most of the guilds founded by people who have to taste poop or soybean paste taste like poop.
There is so much more to do than I thought, and nothing to enjoy.
Those in despair at this withdraw their feet and return to their original positions before despairing even greater.
Into the arms of a large guild that has been successful after tasting the taste of shit over and over again.
When all the names she threw out with enthusiasm disappeared, Im Na-eun asked with a gloomy expression.
“Yoojung, you have something in mind… ?”
“Of course it is.”
Shin Yoo-jung answers confidently.
As everyone looked on expectantly, she said her words.
“Harem.”
“Uh… ?”
Harem.
Although the actual meaning is different, it is a word that commonly means that one man has relationships with several women.
Shin Yoo-jung smiles sinisterly and stabs Kim Do-jin in the side, who is sitting with a sullen expression.
“Isn’t this a harem? Huh? There are a lot of pretty girls like us, and the man is himself. Is not it? Huh?”
“Anyway, isn’t it a bit like a guild name… ?”
“I think so too, Yujeong.”
“I’m not too keen on it…”
Opposite doctors in the order of Im Na-eun, Elena, and Son Seo-yeon.
Shin Yoo-jung licked her lips.
“Shit… , Okay?”
So close.
However, she knows the truth.
The word harem is not a very appropriate word to use as a guild name.
The surprising fact here is that the word was chosen knowingly.
‘Sheesh… , It was a chance to drop all the foxy bitches.’
It was because the female guild members would not even dare to join if this name was used.
Just looking at it, doesn’t it sound like the guild leader Kim Do-jin and the early guild members were intertwined with each other in an inappropriate relationship?
Anyway, isn’t the guild name too embarrassing?
It’s been a long time since I gave away such shame.
Even my mother lives in fear of becoming a competitor, so what’s the point of embarrassing the name of a guild?
‘… It’s a pity, but I can’t help it.’
Soon she gave up.
All the guild members are against it, but I can’t push it alone.
After that, Elena and Lim Na-eun threw out pretty good names several times, but it was all in vain.
“It’s all there, it’s all there.”
It was because all the names that looked plausible were being used as guild names.
By the time you get tired of the feeling of facing an impenetrable castle that you can’t penetrate no matter how hard you try.
Son Seo-yeon, who was watching the heated meeting of the three people, raised her hand.
“I have one thing on my mind.”
“Oh, what is it?”
All eyes were on her mouth, which rarely asserted her usual assertiveness.
In addition to the three people who were slightly exhausted, even Kim Do-jin.
To this she muttered softly.
“Dusk… , How is it?”
The reaction of those who heard this was divided into two.
One person hardened his face as if he didn’t like something, and three people nodded their heads thinking about the name Twilight in a good mood.
“Dusk… , Isn’t that bad?”
Shin Yoo-jeong, one of the latter, immediately typed the name into her search box, and she smiled brightly.
“Wow, not even!”
A guild named Twilight does not exist.
In other words, they could use it as a guild name if they wanted to.
Elena, who liked the feeling of the word itself, asked.
“However… , What does twilight mean?”
The one who answered her question was neither Shin Yoo-jeong nor Son Seo-yeon, but Kim Do-jin, who was hardening her face.
“… Dusk.”
With the English word meaning her twilight, he made her understand her at once, and his gaze turned to her hand, Seo-yeon.
“Senior Seoyeon.”
“Huh.”
“That word… , Could be controversial.”
Then, Son Seo-yeon smiled bitterly.
“Also… , I guess so.”
Shin Yoo-jung, who was watching the conversation with only the two of them, asked with a puzzled expression.
“What is it, what is it? Why is the name Twilight controversial?”
“The meaning of twilight is the twilight light at the end of the day.”
“However?”
“The problem is… , A guild with a name that is quite opposite to Twilight already exists.”
“Opposite… , Meaning?”
Even though I threw it here, you still don’t know…
Kim Do-jin, smiling bitterly, added an explanation.
“The dim light at dawn.”
A word that means when the day dawns, unlike twilight, which means when the day goes down.
“Dawn.”
“… !”
“Ah… !”
As soon as the words come out, Shin Yoo-jung’s eyes widen as if they will tear, and Im Na-eun sighs.
Dawn.
The power of the word was so great.
Because.
“Oh… , If it’s Dawn, isn’t it the guild led by Hunter Son Siu?”
The answer can be found in the words of Elena, who answers innocently without knowing anything.
Siwoo Son.
Because it is the name of the No. 1 guild led by the best hunter and national hunter in Korea.
What does that mean?
“The word twilight is likely to be seen as a declaration of war or a snipe to end their era and us to take their place.”
The reason Kim Do-jin hardened his face and opposed it was because of this inner meaning.
“No way… , Isn’t that too much of an exaggeration though?”
Even so, it can be said that it is not an excessive leap to explain it with just one word.
However.
“It is not a leap. At least for journalists.”
For reporters thirsty for scoops, this was no leap forward.
Even if it doesn’t mean that, what is it?
It is not for nothing that they say that if you wear it on your ears, it is an earring, and if you wear it on your nose, it is a nose ring.
If they said that they wrote an article because it was read like that, what more could they say about it?
“Ah…”
Shin Yoo-jung quickly understood.
After she became a hunter, she also roughly figured out what kind of people those who have a job as a reporter are.
Her gaze turned to Son Seo-yeon.
“Senior… , I really brought it out with that meaning… , Isn’t it?”
Seo-yeon Son smiled at her with a slightly suspicious look and shook her head.
“Of course not.”
Dusk.
Embracing the word and putting it into my mouth was not to surpass my father.
“Long ago… , Dad did that when the guild was first created.”
As a child, she asked.
Why did you name the guild Dawning?
Now that she has become an adult, she recalls that her dad answered that with a slightly bitter smile.
-I didn’t want to, but… , Because this father became the light that shines on the Republic of Korea.
It was for this reason that the guild was named Dawn.
As the name Dawn suggests, it is to become a light that opens the world.
Until the dangers of this world are gone.
Until that is, until a new light of hope emerges that will rise after her own.
“Until then, the Dawning Guild will remain as a ray of hope.”
Then she said as she cradled her trusty father in her arms.
-Then I’ll follow in your father’s footsteps! I’m my dad’s daughter, so that’s what I do!
She wanted to become a new dawn.
But when I grew up, I realized.
She knows she can’t be a Dawn.
In order for a new light to emerge, the light must fade and emerge again after passing through the darkness.
So, she changed her goals.
“The twilight that comes after the dawn… , I want to keep that time.”
From the darkness that inevitably comes when the light subsides.
“Until the day the light rises again.”
At the end of Son Seo-yeon’s gaze, saying that, there was only one person, Kim Do-jin.
The new light of hope is you.
Her clear eyes were telling him that.
