136 – Is it a daily test? (2)
That guy who appeared out of nowhere is very strong. Intuitively.
Instinctively and sensibly, the feeling that he is stronger than me makes the nerve cells of my whole body stand up.
“Don’t die and endure. Please, the sea I wished for.”
You said you wouldn’t die?
Are you an asshole?
… On that subject, he was talking to me like that, and he was running towards me with both hands spewing fire. Are you a human kid?
It comes very quickly too.
‘I don’t know why that unknown person can use such magical powers in this dream. However, I do worry after breaking through the crisis.’
The bastard’s body is getting closer.
And it is clearly reflected on my retina.
He overlooked something.
My eyes are not ordinary eyes.
Sooooong-! I let go of his fist and dodged it. Sparks of fire flew through the air.
Boom! He threw his right fist at the guy. As expected, he quickly dodged and held out his other hand.
Pain!
“…… Keugh.”
I crossed his arms in an X to protect his chest, but I felt the heat on his forearm and let out a moan.
Boom! Leaping forward, he swung the rifle at him with his left hand.
Like a madman doing a sword dance.
Once.
Twice. Third time. Up to five times….
“… Are you fast? No. It’s not just that you move fast, you dodge quickly.”
On the subject of avoiding all of my attacks, he leisurely talks in a monologue.
The pupil, whose life had flowed, was curious.
That bastard is not fighting me with all his might. Do you feel like you’re playing with me like a toy?
However.
He’s clearly breathing life.
That he also has thoughts of killing me.
If you do something wrong.
I could die!
It was then.
“… Ignition.”
Let him move his lips.
Flame! The fireball covered his entire body.
I feel like a stronger attack than just now will hit my body.
The time he warned me was one minute.
Now we have 45 seconds left.
44 Seconds.
43 Seconds.
42 Seconds… ….
‘Coming!’
A moment of crisis!
Pingleur! I felt my two pupils spinning.
I concentrate all my nerves on my eyes through the optic nerve cells.
‘I can see it.’
The movement of his fiery body. A gap is visible in it.
* * *
‘This bastard is a bit surprising, isn’t it?’
Kim Ho-yong looked at the Hunter who was enduring well with his entire body torn from the heat.
Hunter’s body was a mess, but something in his eyes still seemed to shine.
Persistent grit?
What makes such an ideal spirit that you can never give up make those eyes look like that?
‘Withstand my firing.’
That Hunter deserves recognition.
Even in the other realm where skills can be cast, no one has survived this igniting with all their efforts.
Whether it’s an awakened boss monster….
Any named mercenary.
Whether it’s a high-ranking hunter.
They all ended in nothing but ashes in this fire.
But that guy is different.
‘… In addition, this place is in a dream, and that guy obviously can’t demonstrate the ability of a hunter. How can you act like that when you’re facing such a penalty?’
Puck!
“… ….”
Hoyong thrust his fist into Hunter’s abdomen, which had repelled his ignition. The flesh on his stomach rippled against his knuckles.
Hunter manages not to let out a groan even though he is out of breath.
It seemed like he was holding his lips together.
‘I wanted to test it out. If I give it to you, you will use it as it is and become a lumber to avenge my enemies….’
Maybe.
It seems to be sufficient for lumber.
“Let me ask you one question. What is your rank?”
Kim Ho-yong asked Hunter.
In this situation where you can’t use a hunter’s skill, if you can receive this much of your attack, you’re probably at least a B-class hunter.
I was curious about the rank. How rank can I receive my ultimate fire without skill?
“… F.”
“… What?”
“F-class, you bastard!”
That time when thoughts of absurdity rather than surprise crossed my mind.
Hoyong’s vision turned upside down.
“…… ?”
Did I just eat this one?
Why?
At that time.
Hunter jumped up and did a handstand after half tumbling.
With both hands on the ground.
What are you trying to do? Are you trying to cast a skill? No.
It can’t be. That kind of attitude is just a ridiculous attitude I’ve never heard of before.
“What are you trying to do?”
Hoyong asked with his back on the floor. That guy is an extraordinary guy, but if you get up right away and apply your full force, you can kill that hunter well enough. But first, I asked out of curiosity.
Down!
“…… !”
Hoyong’s pupils widened.
Hunter takes off his left arm while standing on his head, then bends his right arm and then, with a snap, the pizza guy flies into the air.
5 Meters.
6 Meters.
8 Meters.
…… Up to 12 meters.
“… How.”
Hoyong couldn’t help but be surprised. No. No one else here except you
I’m in a dream where I can’t use skills.
But that hunter took a strange posture and jumped into the air.
That’s 15 meters.
“Nonsense.”
No matter how much you are a hunter.
You can’t jump like that without skill and strength alone. Because this is a place where the hunter system itself does not apply.
Hunter jumped up enough to cover the moon at night with his back, and finished preparing to land with his right fist clenched.
‘What a surprise. Now I will use my strength.’
By the way.
“…… What? Body?”
Hoyong’s body did not move. Hoyong’s gaze went down to the center of his collarbone.
‘This guy can’t believe it?’
Moment!
“!”
Hunter’s fist with full gravity poured into the heart.
Along with pain breaking the whole body.
The blood that rose from inside was poured onto the Hunter’s face.
“In the first place, you don’t show your gaps by asking questions to the enemy during battle, bastard.”
The hunter, who covered his face with Hoyong’s blood, said with a fishy smile.
It’s such an instant that I can’t believe it!
And Ho-yong quietly closed his eyes as if resigned.
“… I lost.”
I didn’t expect this to happen.
I didn’t know that young fledgling figured out in such a short time that between my collarbones was the heart of my agility.
‘This guy is a thing.’
* * *
“…… That’s how it happened.”
He finished.
I heard a long story from the man.
I could actually have killed him.
So I asked right before I killed him.
“Are you going to die like this for me? Or will you tell me everything and live?”
After saying that, I tried to kill him after digging up the story and getting information.
To eliminate all risks.
But Kim Ho-yong answered me like this.
“Do whatever you want. Instead, if I die like this, you will only die in Christian’s dream.”
I could feel Kim Ho-yong’s sincerity. So, she decided to give it a listen.
She heard a long story.
She was full of unbelievable stories among them.
“Are you surprised? That I am the Black Hunter.”
“There is something you didn’t tell me. How did you use your skills in this dream?”
“That is my ability acquired through awakening.”
“… Awakening?”
Awakening breaks through the limits of a Hunter.
Only one part of the body.
Not just anyone.
Meeting certain conditions.
A blessing only given to the chosen Hunter.
Awakened hunters break through the limits of one exceptional part of their body.
And.
You gain a new ability due to that body.
“Then, where is your awakened body?”
“Year after year.”
“… Hippocampus?”
“It is an organ that exists inside the brain. The hippocampus is the place that governs people’s dreams.”
“Unexpected. I thought it would be between your collarbones, your weak spot.”
“The area between the collarbones is very narrow, so it is less likely to be attacked. I just put the energy of my hippocampus into it.”
“…… It was like that. The question is solved.”
At that time.
Kim Ho-yong’s eyes narrowed.
“Let’s ask one question. Answer this and I will answer your questions.”
“Yes, what is it?”
Once I knew it.
Because I won’t ask questions that are difficult for me to answer anyway.
If I ask a question like that, I’ll lie roughly, and then I’ll dig out the things I’m curious about.
That’s all.
“How did you know that my collarbone is a vital part? No matter how excellent a hunter was, there was not a single hunter who caught my vital spot.”
“My visual acuity is 13.0.”
“… What? Did you say your eyesight was 13.0?”
Nod.
Kim Ho-yong laughed at my nod.
“You crazy bastard. Are you telling me to believe that?”
I spent just 5 minutes explaining it so that he would believe me.
To instill trust.
Simply, that the coin that fell on the floor more than a few hundred meters away at night was 500 won.
Tell me that the coin is face down.
The guy dared to check and trudged on.
“… Under. Is this crazy bullsh*t real?”
“I could see the movement of your cells and blood in an instant.”
“It’s still hard to believe, but if you think about it, there’s no reason for you to lie.”
Hoyong gently closed his eyes.
Like that face.
The expression on his face said that he would tell me everything if I asked him a question.
There is something you need to know.
This is the sleeping Black Hunter.
Because I have an encounter with the Black Hunter soon ahead.
“… Ask.”
From noble mtl dot com
I asked if Hoyong had read my intentions with his eyes closed.
“I wonder about the weaknesses of the Black Hunters, who is their leader, whether there are Black Hunters in White Gate, and what their ultimate goal is.”
I asked to ask.
Even if I ask, I don’t expect him to answer one by one.
He’s a black hunter anyway.
I was just curious and asked questions that I couldn’t get an answer to.
“… Are there four questions?”
“Yes.”
I won’t talk.
Hard to say,
No, because I only asked questions that could never be answered.
The thought of threatening to kill me immediately if I don’t tell her is part of my plan.
Because that’s exactly what I need.
“I will answer everything. I don’t have much time, so if you answer that, it will be over.”
“What?”
It was rather me who was surprised by the response that he was willing to tell me.
“First. The Black Hunters’ weakness is Cain, who leads them. Since you also asked the boss, this answer has two questions resolved?”
“… Is it Cain? No way….”
“Yes, that is correct. She is said to have been killed by the sword god Redin.”
Cain.
It is the demon that appears in the history of the other world.
It is the orthodox theory that the demon was already known to have died in that war. No… Let’s say he lived then. Still, how many years have passed and can he still be alive?
“He is alive… “
“Don’t stop talking. You only asked me four questions, and I will only answer them.”
“… ….”
He cut off my words.
Once you dig up all the information, you just have to dig more. There was no need to scratch his heart right now, so when I didn’t ask, his lips opened.
“Third. A shadowy spy planted at White Gate? Yoon Dong-seok.”
“… What, what?”
I felt like my hair was frozen because the answer was more shocking than just now.
Yoon Dong-seok.
Vice President of the Korea Hunter Association.
A big man like that was a shadow man?
“It must be hard to believe. Because he is a very compassionate and well-behaved person. Can I tell you one more?”
“I am listening.”
“Vice President Yoon Dong-seok and Association President Kwak Dae-ik pretend to respect each other and sharpen knives to stab each other in their back pockets. Kwak Dae-ik is sharpening his sword with Kwak Dae-ik, and Yoon Dong-seok is also sharpening his sword. Yoon Dong-seok’s sword is a shadow. It is a sword called the Black Hunter.”
“!”
Hunter’s position as president and vice president of the association is a position where he can exercise more power than most big politicians.
The president of the association is in a position higher than the vice president, but the president of the association cannot take care of the vice president.
The vice president also knows a lot about the corruption and corruption of the president.
Because the company linked to his sponsor is second only to the head of the association.
‘The power to dictate the Association. That’s the ultimate goal.’
At that time.
A woman came to mind.
Seonghye Yoon.
A daughter of Yoon Dong-seok and a woman who thinks of me dearly.
‘I know the tendency of Kwak Dae-ik, who went through regression twice. However, if White Gate falls into the hands of Yoon Dong-seok, who is involved in the shadow….’
Then, the end of all the hunters in this land is obvious.
Even if I tell White Gate what I heard from Kim Ho-yong, no one will believe it.
Who will believe the F-rank Hunter’s words? The source of this information is also a black hunter who will not have any trust in them.
If I recklessly bring up that story, my neck as an F-rank hunter will be blown away without even knowing a mouse or a bird.
I can’t just leave it unattended.
How did I become a Hunter?
I can’t let that dream get crushed.
‘I have to stop it. If so, that would be the only way. Hound.’
That was the road that came to my mind.
Cool! Kim Ho-yong’s face was getting dry as he coughed.
“Hey. Didn’t you say you didn’t have time?”
He shoots a stinging glance at me, wondering how long I will be immersed in contemplation.
“I am ready to listen. Talk.”
“I will answer the last question you asked. The ultimate purpose of the shadows.”
