I Was Kidnapped By The Strongest Guild
Chapter 293: Even Though I Know I'm Not Weak

Yeomyeong Guild meeting room.

Yeoreum shared everything that had happened with the children to everyone.

The guild members were most interested in the disappearances and kidnappings.

"People are going missing?"

"Yes. All the local residents were worried about it."

"Hmm..."

Disappearances and kidnappings.

Could this be related to the destruction of Gyeoul's world?

It seemed like a clue, but also not.

They needed more information before drawing any conclusions.

"Next time, Jinhyuk will go."

"Alright. I'll prepare for it. But..."

Choi Jinhyuk trailed off, turning to look at Yeoreum.

He wanted to ask the information specialist a question.

"What is it?"

"I'm curious how much time is left until the destruction."

"We still have plenty of time. We can take it slowly."

"...I see."

So there's enough time to gather information?

Choi Jinhyuk nodded, indicating he understood.

With that, the discussion about Gyeoul's world came to an end.

Even if they wanted to talk more, there wasn't much else to say due to lack of information.

"Shall we move on to the next agenda?"

"Yeah."

Ahem.

Jung Yu-na cleared her throat and picked up a file.

The next topic was also related to Gyeoul.

[Dungeon Field Trip]

It's an event where novice adventurers are taken to high-level dungeons.

To show them that there's a wider world out there.

Usually, these field trips were to level 4-5 dungeons, but this one was a bit special.

"If Gyeoul's going, we're doing a level 6 dungeon, right?"

"Yeah. If Gyeoul refuses, we'll just go to level 5."

Level 6 dungeon.

Though it was just one number higher than level 5, adventurers often called level 6 the "Wall of Wailing".

Most aspiring adventurers never reached level 6.

It was a realm that only the talented could reach.

The Yeomyeong people wanted to show this realm to Gyeoul.

It was a realm Gyeoul would surely reach someday.

'Though that's still a long way off...'

Gyeoul was only eight years old now.

Even if she reached it in ten years, that would still be an unbelievably young age.

Yeoreum chuckled, anticipating Gyeoul's future.

"Then we'll need to prepare even more thoroughly for safety."

"Of course."

Since Gyeoul might be coming along.

Protection magic and items, and even Kang Jinho's personal security.

They planned to prepare so that not even the smallest scratch would happen.

While they're at it, they might as well invite other adventurers too.

"I'll ask Gyeoul about it. Is there anything more important?"

"Nope. Nothing in particular."

"Then..."

Yeoreum stood up, pushing her chair back.

She wanted to meet Gyeoul as soon as possible.

**

I need to save up money to buy a crossbow.

With that resolve, I returned home.

It was to tend to the crops.

Even though they hadn't been managed for a week, none of the crops had gone bad.

It was thanks to Levinas's magic.

'That's amazing.'

How does Levinas keep the crops so fresh?

I wonder if this magic could be used on animals too.

As I was harvesting cabbage and thinking about various things-

Levinas and the children came running from far away.

"King!"

Levinas was holding Seol in her arms.

But something seemed off about Seol's condition.

There was a small horn attached to Seol's forehead.

"What's with the horn?"

"Levinas put it on!"

"Did you make it with magic?"

"No! Levinas stuck it on with Kkamang's spider web!"

Ah.

Kkamang's spider web is quite sticky.

It naturally dissolves over time too.

Kkamang's spider web had quite a few variations.

But right now, the important thing wasn't the spider web, but the horn.

"Um... Why did you put a horn on Seol?"

"Seol is practice! After practicing, Levinas will put horns on the hornless rabbits in that world!"

"...I see."

So Levinas is making an effort in her own way.

But the horn will probably fall off quickly like that.

I wonder if there's a better method.

Hmm, as I was lost in thought, stroking my chin-

Levinas used Seol's front paw to poke my shoulder.

"King. Can Levinas bring a horned rabbit?"

"A horned rabbit?"

Does she want to keep one?

I was about to ask why she wanted to bring one when-

Yeoreum came waving from far away.

"Kids!"

We naturally turned to look at Yeoreum.

Our gently swaying tails showed we were in a good mood.

"Is the meeting over?"

"Hmm... The meeting's not over yet. I need to ask Gyeoul something."

"Me?"

"Yeah. There's a dungeon field trip coming up."

A high-level dungeon tour for novice adventurers.

Yeoreum said she'd really like it if I came.

"Is it okay if I go? Won't it be scary?"

"Yeah. There won't be any danger at all. As for scary... I'm not sure. There will be strong monsters."

"...Will you stay by my side?"

"Of course. I won't leave Gyeoul's side for a moment."

"Okay. I'll go then."

She said everyone from the guild would protect me.

There was no reason not to go if that was the case.

I could learn more by experiencing a high-level dungeon.

"Good. Your sister will make sure you don't get even a single scratch, so don't worry."

"Okay. But can I bring someone I know?"

"Of course! Absolutely! Your sister needs to go tell them Gyeoul's participating."

Yeoreum left, waving her hand just as she had when she arrived.

She seemed very busy.

'I should invite the people I know.'

Though by "people", I only knew two novice adventurers.

Yoon Hyunseo and Han Taehwi from the White Snow Guild.

There was also Kwon Arin, but since she was from the same guild, I didn't think I needed to call her separately.

I borrowed Levinas's smartphone and called Yoon Hyunseo.

After a few standard ring tones, Yoon Hyunseo picked up.

"Hello?"

"Hello. This is Gyeoul."

"Oh, Gyeoul. What's up?"

"The guild is going on a dungeon field trip. Do you want to come? They say we're going to a level 6 dungeon."

"L-level 6...? A field trip to level 6...?"

I could hear Yoon Hyunseo's surprised voice through the smartphone.

Why is she so surprised when they do this regularly?

I absentmindedly scratched the microphone part of the smartphone with my nail.

"They say the guild does this periodically. Do you want to come?"

"U-um. Yeah. It would be an honor if I could."

"Okay. I'll let them know."

An honor?

It's just a simple dungeon field trip.

I scratched my cheek as I handed the smartphone back to Levinas.

"King, are you done with the call?!"

"Yeah."

"Then can Levinas bring a horned rabbit now?!"

"Yeah. If that's what Levinas wants."

"Wha! Thank you!"

Levinas jumped up from her spot.

She was so happy that she could keep a horned rabbit.

They say keeping a pet is good for children's character development.

I decided not to stop her.

**

Two days later.

Yeoreum sat on a park bench, looking at her smartphone screen.

She was checking the reactions to the 'Dungeon Field Trip' post the guild had made.

[SmallMerchant: Why are they going to level 6 for a dungeon field trip?]

[Gravity: It's the first time I've seen a field trip go to level 6 ㄷㄷ]

[└ Hungry: I work at Yeomyeong, and I heard they're going to level 6 to raise Gyeoul.]

[└EatNoodlePlease: Is she some kind of princess?]

[└Hungry: Princess? Gyeoul-nim is the emperor of our Yeomyeong.]

[└EatNoodlePlease: Emperor lol]

[└CheeseLover: Surprisingly, emperor is correct... Even that Kang Jinho is at Gyeoul's beck and call...]

[BeastkinLover: The kids who got selected for this field trip should bow down to Gyeoul.]

[└BitterCoffee: For real, it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience.]

[Froggy: But isn't level 6 really dangerous?]

[└Page: Kang Jinho, Chae Juyeon, and Park Taesan are going on this field trip. It's super safe.]

[└Inquisitor: Lol unless they're trying to hurt themselves, it's impossible to get injured with that lineup.]

Someone from the guild must have leaked information, as there was talk about Gyeoul.

Though it wasn't intentional, there were comments that almost sounded like praise for Gyeoul.

'Emperor, huh.'

It's not wrong.

Yeoreum smiled, looking around.

She was searching for the children who should be in the park.

And at that moment.

Levinas was standing near the portal, holding a horned rabbit.

She thought that if it was a world without horned rabbits, she could send one from here!

Since she got permission from Gyeoul, there was no reason not to do it.

"Horned rabbit! Can you see that portal?!"

"Squeak?"

"You just need to go in there!"

Levinas put the horned rabbit down on the ground.

Without any hesitation, the horned rabbit dashed towards the portal.

Gyeoul, who arrived late, was startled by this sight.

"L-Levinas...!"

Gyeoul quickly ran and snatched the jumping horned rabbit.

Like a goalkeeper catching a ball, she grabbed it with both hands and quickly hugged it to her chest.

"Phew, phew..."

Gyeoul, holding the horned rabbit, lay down on her side.

She had slid due to the momentum.

It wasn't like she fell, but more like she gently tipped over to the side.

'Thank goodness.'

It would have been a disaster if a horned rabbit was sent to that world and disrupted the ecosystem.

Of course, nothing might have happened, but we still needed to refrain from sending creatures from this side.

"King!"

Levinas, with her horned rabbit eyes, ran towards Gyeoul.

And a few seconds later, Yeoreum came running from far away.

"Gyeoul!"

The horned rabbit burrowed into Gyeoul's stomach as she lay on her side.

Seeing this, Yeoreum's heart started racing.

Even though she knew the current Gyeoul wasn't weak enough to be pierced by a horned rabbit's horn, she couldn't help but instinctively panic.
