Leading an army to victory is a piece of cake for someone with the right skillset, like Gongja! Following their success, the top ten ranked hunters are unexpectedly summoned to a different place to choose between rewards from the goddess and the Demon King. However, Gongja’s got more urgent things to take care of.

That’s why Gongja’s determined to ensure their safety by singlehandedly paving the way to the twentiet...
