Episode 30

Dokkaebi (2) is the thirtieth episode of The S-Ranks That I Raised webtoon.

Confirming his collaboration with Seok Hayan, Han Yoojin sets about making and winning a bet with the Dokkaebi.

Summary
Seok Hayan wakes up in the infirmary. Yoojin, waiting by her bedside, informs her that the Dokkaebi left, and offers a solution to her problem of lacking research data. The episode flashes back to Yoojin's meeting with the Dokkaebi, where they eagerly agreed to a bet. Yoojin declares that to win the bet, the Dokkaebi has to scare him; the loser becomes the other's subordinate. When the Dokkaebi laughingly demands that Yoojin be their subordinate for twenty years if he loses, Yoojin obligingly pulls out a contract to set the terms in stone. The Dokkaebi immediately grows wary, trying to figure out why an apparent F-rank is willing to go so far when he's likely to lose.

Yoojin, relieved that the Dokkaebi doesn't know about Fear Resistance, claims that he's a fan of the Dokkaebi's and wouldn't lose out by being associated with them. Easily flattered and amused by his bold attitude, the Dokkaebi agrees to try scaring Yoojin three times, with a single show of fear giving them the win. Later, knowing that he'll win the bet, Yoojin readily tells Seok Hayan he can provide her data on dungeons to conduct her research on. When she appears discouraged, Yoojin "predicts" that a dungeon in Icheon will have certain valuable attributes as a way of showing that her chosen field has significant potential value. He asks her to keep his proposal in mind and tells her to get Seok Simyeong to bid on the dungeon, then leaves.

Over the course of the next week, the Dokkaebi attempts to frighten Yoojin with various disguises and sudden appearances, but fails to frighten him, only making him angry when they accidentally injure him. On the last night, the Dokkaebi tries a final drastic two-part jumpscare, but fails as always. Both Yoojin and the Dokkaebi are startled when Yoo Myeongwoo, unable to sleep, appears with a knife he was sharpening; the Dokkaebi is terrified by his ghostly appearance, and Myeongwoo is in turn frightened into fainting by their disguise, but Yoojin remains unmoved throughout it all, winning the bet.
