The survivors came out of the red portal. Baek Yoon was surprised, one rank B, 2 rank C, and 3 rank E completed the dungeon.

Boss Ahn was right about Sung Jin Woo? Bakek thought.

"Can I ask you a few questions?" He stopped Sung Jin Woo who was leaving.

"I'm busy, ask the others," Sung answered, he was irritated at not being able to turn the Chief Hyakki into his shadow.

"9 members of my guild died, can't I ask a few questions?" He released part of his strength.

"And we saved the other 3, shouldn't you thank us?"

They both stared at each other, and Baek Yoon relented.

"You're right, you can go."

Sung left with Rimuru and Song Yi, who insisted that he take them.

"Boss Ahn, you must recruit him at all costs," Baek ordered.

"I'll do my best"

"That is not enough, you will have my full support"

"We can't let another guild get him, much less the Hunters guild."

During the trip:

Sung was driving in silence, Rimuru was thinking, and Song Yi was sleeping on her master's shoulder.

"Song Yi said that tomorrow they will go to clean portals." Rimuru broke the silence. "Can I accompany you?"

"Of course, I'll have to tell Jin Ho" Sung didn't mind that Rimuru accompanied him, after all his shadows would take care of everything.

"Thank you"

The road continued in silence until they reached Song Yi's house, a problem arose.

"I forgot to say it but... my parents kicked me out of the house" Song Yi confessed sadly.

"Why would your parents kick you out?" Rimuru asked.

"It's because you don't want to study, right?" This time it was Jin Woo.

"Yeah, they were upset when I told them I was going to be a hunter." She remembered how her parents kicked her out. "Can I stay at one of your houses?"

"I know you're someone I can trust but there's no room in my house," Sung said.

"You can stay in mine, I don't mind"

"Thanks, teacher!"

That way Song Yi ended up living at Rimuru's place.

The other day in the dungeons:

"Brother, what about this?!" Jin Ho asked surprised by Sung's shadows.

That's right, it's the first time he's seen them Sung thought. "They are my summons, they can kill monsters and collect crystals"

"I feel like I've lost my place," Jin Ho said as he didn't have to do anything.

Master, he can be useful in the future Ciel said referring to Jin Ho. Do you want to do the same process we did with Song Yi?

You mean to give him the ability and rank him up?

Exactly, do you want to do it?

But I was going to do the rank test with Song Yi next week Rimuru sighed. If we do it, I will have to wait a few months until he reaches S rank so we can all do the test together

If you think it's a better option I can give you the ability and improve it quickly, it won't take more than a month to reach S rank

, Even so, Rimuru thought, it would be like giving Jin Ho tricks.

Also, you said you were going to train Park Hee Jin, remember? She reminded him. I can do the same procedure with her

I forgot... it's alright, I'll invite him to train too, you'll give him the ability and in a month he'll be S rank

"Hey Jin Ho," Rimuru called out. "Would you like to be trained by me?"

"Hey? But I'm rank D, I'm not going to rank up just for training"

"Accept it Jin Ho." Sung approached them. "Look at Song Yi, I can tell she's almost S-rank"

"S-rank?! Wasn't she E-rank a few months ago?!"

"She was, but since she started training with Rimuru she hasn't stopped increasing her strength," Sung assured. "Rimuru is reliable, you don't have to worry"

I can't believe that just by training I can rank up. Jin Ho thought about it for a moment. "If Sung says it's possible, I'll trust you"

"Alright, we start tomorrow." Rimuru smiled. "Sung, can we talk alone?"

They walked away from Song Yi and Jin Ho a bit to talk.

"Are you planning to do a reevaluation of your rank?" Rimuru cut to the chase.

"Yes, maybe in a few days, I have something important to do before that" The dark-haired man was thinking of going up the floors of the demonic castle.

"Could you wait a month?" Rimuru asked. "I'm sure with my training, Jin Ho and Park Hee Jin would only need a month to reach S rank"

Sung looked visibly surprised, could he really take a D to S rank in such a short time? It took almost 7 months to bring Song Yi up to her current state, and that was already unbelievable, you're not supposed to increase your strength no matter how hard you try.

"I witnessed Song Yi improve." Sung sighed and smiled. "Okay, I'll wait a month."

"Thank you and by the way, you don't plan to join any guild right?"

"Right now I don't plan on joining any."

"I understand but, what if I manage to get dungeons that go from A to S rank? Will you join the guild I plan to create if that happens?"

"Do you think you can get A-rank portals? Also, S-rank portals are not a game nor do they appear frequently only every few years"

"I know, it's just a question."

Silence reigned over the place for a few seconds until Sung decided to answer.

"If you achieve that, I would have no reason to refuse your invitation"

"Perfect, that's what I wanted to hear." Rimuru took out a pair of daggers from [Storage] and threw them at Sung. "You are better using these"

"These daggers" Sung was very shocked, the system did not allow him to use them due to lack of power. "True Dragon Daggers?"

"I found them when I defeated an A-rank boss," he lied. "I use a katana so they don't work for me, they are of good quality, you should use them"

"Thank you," Sung thanked and watched as Rimuru returned to the others.

"I'll keep them until I can use them"
