Episode 24

**Found You!** (Korean: 찾았다!, RR: *chajatda*) is the twenty-fourth episode of *The S-Ranks That I Raised* webtoon.

The novice Hunters' first dungeon raid is abruptly interrupted by a mysterious message and an unexpected monster.

## Summary

Inside the rocky terrain dungeon, Yerim and Yoohyun incapacitate numerous monsters, bringing them back to Yoojin while criticizing each other's technique. An unimpressed Yoojin, however, is busy picking up the magic stones left behind by the dead monsters. He encourages Yoo Myeongwoo to kill some of the monsters in the meantime, checking idly on his Forge skill. In the list of activation conditions, he finds a typo. This leaves him in a startled daze, puzzling over the nature of the system, as he comforts Myeongwoo on not obtaining a skill at level 10.

The team eventually reaches the last area of the dungeon, and Yoojin is responding to Yoohyun's check-in when he's interrupted by a system message stating "Found you!". Another message follows up with a frantic apology. Yoojin is jolted out of his confusion when Yoohyun and Yerim both shout a warning and rush to protect him from a sudden, intense flame attack. They quickly identify it as a boss monster's attack, realizing that the original boss monster—a giant goat—has been replaced by a colossal bird-like monster.

Worried, Yoohyun tries to give Yoojin a Gate Stone and prepares to go fight it. At this, Yoojin has a flashback to the Rauchitas fight and worries that the events before the regression will repeat themselves, but pulls himself together and tells Yoohyun about the monster: a Gold Beak Maiya, which he's sure Yoohyun can defeat. Brushing off Yoohyun's suspicions to discuss later, he orders Yerim to use Cold Sigh to create a shield. Yoohyun entrusts his brother to her, though leaving Yoojin with a Gate Stone anyway, and heads off to fight the Maiya. Yoojin points out to Yerim how his Flame Resistance and substitute flight skill Azure Willow Leaves make him better suited to fight the Maiya, but wonders why Yoohyun isn't using Willow Leaves, fighting from the ground instead. He begins to wonder if Yoohyun simply hasn't acquired the skill yet, when the Maiya grows frustrated at not being able to hurt Yoohyun and targets the novices instead. Panicked, Yerim, Yoojin, and Myeongwoo watch the monster speed towards them, not knowing what to do.

## Novel & webtoon differences

* In the webtoon, Yoojin gets the magic stones out of the monsters' bodies himself, rather than having Yerim use Cold Sigh to blow the monsters' ashes away before picking up the uncovered stones. As a result, Yerim doesn't test the applications of her skill.
* Since Yoojin already ordered the kids to get along before they began the raid in earnest, he doesn't bother scolding them when they're competing over who can bring him more ready-to-be-killed monsters.
* The system administrators make a typo in Myeongwoo's Gold Forge's Owner acquisition conditions, rather than in Yerim's potential skill options.
* When the Maiya appears, both Yerim and Yoohyun lunge to protect Yoojin, and Myeongwoo benefits by standing close to him. In the novel, however, Yoohyun is the first to notice and protects Yoojin, who realizes something's wrong and specifically orders Yerim to protect Myeongwoo.
* Yoojin is notably calmer at the Maiya's appearance in the webnovel than he is in the webtoon, and is the one to explain that dungeons can glitch and release higher-ranked monsters sometimes. In the novel, he takes Yoohyun offering him a Gate Stone in stride, while it visibly causes him to panic momentarily in the webtoon.
* Yoojin commands Yerim to make a shield of ice, but does no such thing in the novel.
* In the novel, Yoohyun gives Yoojin the Gate Stone just in case, before entrusting him to Yerim; Yoojin comments on how they appear to have put aside their rivalry and trust each other in the moment. However, in the webtoon, Yoohyun purposely states that he doesn't fully trust Yerim, which is the reason he's giving Yoojin the Gate Stone.
