76 – To Another World (3)
From noble mtl dot com
In the quiet atmosphere, even the surrounding air feels heavy.
The guide’s expressionless facial muscles, wearing an eyepatch, twitched only minimally to move his lips.
“Mr. Hunter is one of the few blind people in our blind vocational center, and we are certainly looking forward to it.”
The guide said in a low voice.
‘Lean back.’
Siwoon’s expression became serious as he listened. I have heard the notification that the favorability of Has risen.
However, in the guide’s words, I felt something derived from human emotions.
“Hunter. Please make your choice. You must have come to change jobs.”
Make a choice.
I wait silently for the guide to speak.
“If you do a few of my troublesome requests, I will open a new class for the job hunter, the hopeful owner of our job center. I want you to make a choice.”
After she finished speaking.
She stared at her vision with her head still. Covered with an eyepatch, with invisible eyes.
‘Is there anything to worry about? If you do a few favors, you can get a job change for the hidden route.’
She immediately opened her mouth.
“I will listen.”
The guide’s expressionless muscles moved slightly.
It was so subtle that ordinary people wouldn’t notice it, but in her eyes, it was.
‘Half-color.’
.
“My request is….”
The quest window popped up with Siwoon’s eyes.
[Mir’s Request][Job Quest]
Destroy all the monsters living in Jeonghwabong Hill.
Success Condition: Monster Kill (0/1000)
Failure condition: Decreased relationship with Mir. Or a job change to another job.
Reward: Allows you to complete the following quests.
‘…Kill a thousand?’
This will take some time.
Well, actually, getting a hidden job from a hidden job through a hidden route is not going to be difficult.
At that time.
“The contents of my request must have already been carefully marked in Hunter-sama’s eyes.”
The guide seemed to know.
“Okay, let’s go.”
Shiwoon hurriedly left and opened the door for her.
That’s when I tried to put half of her body through the crack in her door.
“Hunter.”
I can hear the guide’s low voice.
I turned my head and looked at the guide.
She has a stiff head and only moves her lips.
“I hope you will not fail my expectations.”
“Hold on to your worries.”
Siwoon smiled and left as it was. The movement of the door caused mold and dust in the gap between the door to fall and disturb the floor.
“……….”
The guide stood there silently.
‘It was really sad that Hunter Kwak Won became like that…. I hope that only you will continue walking this path without losing Lord Hernemes’ protection.’
She just looked at Li Shiun and remembered a man of hers.
A man named Kwak Won who chose the path of the blind.
He gave up his sight,
He was a person who made the Black Hunters tremble with his five senses like a beast.
Her hand holding her staff trembled subtly.
* * ＊
As we went all the way up the outskirts of Lephron, we arrived at a hill called Jeonghwabong through the fields.
I looked around.
‘All around are mountains and there’s not a single city.’
When I looked up, the slope at the foot of the mountain was wide open.
There were no stairs, as if to let people know that there was no trace of people going there, and there were only weeds, coarsely spread rocks, and trees thick with leaves.
“Run.”
My legs move quickly.
Siwoon’s bangs fluttered as he ran up the slope.
Let’s go up a bit like that.
Wow! f*ck you!
I heard the roar of a husky beast.
And what appeared.
[The Great Hedgehog Lv. 54]
[The Great Hedgehog Lv. 54]
[Variant Hedgehog Lv. 47]
Three hedgehogs the size of a man, standing up on spikes, rushed at Siwoon as if they were crawling, wagging their tails.
How fast is the hedgehog subject?
Agility was as nimble as that of a rat.
Chakang!
I took out the red lantern sword.
Picked, cut, stabbed.
The sturdy spines were broken, and the eyeballs of the hedgehogs that had ripped off the flesh from their bodies lay on their backs and sagged.
It was a bonus that the belly skins of the guys lying down toward the ceiling were burning with the heat of the flames.
‘Your strength is weak. No, I guess my strength level is too high for my level.’
Now three.
You must defeat 997 to complete the quest.
To do that, I had to move quickly.
* * *
Pakang!
aaah!
f*ck-
Keeck!
Pushuk-
Kwaek!
-You have killed a mutant deer.
-You have killed a mutant deer.
-You have killed a mutant deer.
A deer’s torn flesh is cut on the blade of the Honglan Sword.
Tuk-tuk, shake it off to the ground.
A thick bloody smell flowed from the sword body.
‘Nine now.’
Climbing the mountain and killing only nine monsters now.
The number of remaining monsters is 991.
‘I’ll just go hot.’
I felt that I had to change my hunting method to a different route than the standard route.
And.
Teo-Duck! Turduk!
Two mountain beasts came down terrifyingly, cutting down rocks.
“The First Part of Hongran.”
The aura that blooms from the blade creates explosive flames.
Queueek!
Keep!
Queueek!
The sound of flesh melting and distorting the torso and the disgusting screams of the beasts continued.
Roaring!
The flames spread and spread to the surrounding tree leaves and weeds and began to burn the mountain vigorously.
“Good.”
I looked up.
Due to the flames that had already bloomed, thick smoke was reaching towards the sky.
The flames grew stronger.
The flames began to fill the surroundings.
“Blind Blindness.”
As soon as the words are finished.
Siwoon’s whole body was covered in a subtle aura.
‘To prevent a burn condition.’
That’s right.
Even if you don’t receive any damage because it’s a skill cast by Siwoon,
If the flames were transferred and the acid burned, the flames could cause burns.
In order to prevent it in the first place, it was to cast Blind Blindness, which becomes invincible in abnormal conditions.
* ＊ ＊
“The First Part of Hongran.”
Flutter!
The fire spreads again.
Move your body back and forth in the mountains.
He kindly cast a spell of Hongran all over the mountain.
Now then.
The whole area of Jeonghwabong Hill was burning as it was covered in flames.
Queueek!
-You have killed the Great Deer.
Kwaaah!
-You have killed a mutant hedgehog.
Quaok! Guess!
-You have killed a subspecies wild boar.
The flames that spread like lightning were frighteningly devouring the flesh of the monsters around Mt. Jeonghwa.
All the monsters in the mountain who felt threatened escaped from their dwellings and ran out of the mountain shaking their bodies.
Even then.
Keeek!
The ensuing scream.
Even wild animals who quickly feel a sense of crisis through instinct.
I couldn’t escape the fire that swallowed everything and melted it all.
Tarduk! Got it!
Leaves, leaves, rocks, weeds, even flower petals………
It is the moment when all things in the mountain bow their heads and turn into black ashes due to the spreading flame.
Siwoon smiles bitterly as he looks down at the scene from a high hill where the flames have not yet reached.
‘It’s burning well.’
I opened the quest window.
[Mir’s Request][Job Quest]
Destroy all the monsters living in Jeonghwabong Hill.
Success condition: Kill monsters (364/1000)
Failure condition: Decreased relationship with Mir. Or a job change to another job.
Reward: Allows you to complete the following quests.
You don’t have to pierce the monster’s belly yourself.
By the flames spreading from the red lantern sword.
364 Monsters had already died.
Soon.
The number of dead monsters went up without a hint.
365…
368…
390…
415…
430…
485…
It was a kind of expedient to use skills ignorantly to easily fill the number of monsters killed.
* * *
The top of Jeonghwabong Hill.
Kooooo!
The wolf-type monster flipped its eyeballs and let out a fierce roar.
The flames sprang up from somewhere.
And when he saw his own people dying in vain, he was furious.
Kurrure… !
Like a human, the eyes of the beast that stood on its feet and pouted the claws protruding from its arms bloomed with red flesh.
I don’t know who it is, but the guy who did this will surely be torn to pieces.
That kind of look.
The beast deftly jumped over boulders and boulders using all four feet, dodging the flames and descending.
Kooooo!
Absolutely.
I’ll give you a drink for the human who did this.
Kreuk?
At that time.
The smell of human flesh came out.
When he turned his head right there.
“Are you the boss here?”
It was a man with a sword who asked.
A red heat was disturbing the air from the sword of the man who calmly asked.
Croaaa!
That’s him.
That guy is the main culprit.
He is unforgiving.
Peeing!
I jumped up on a rock with all fours and flew towards the man.
At that time, something sharp flashed three times, and I felt my body being torn apart and my whole body ripening.
It seems that he is not a normal human.
Kuaaa!
However.
I can’t die like this.
To take revenge for trampling on his own people.
The beast stood up and moved his feet quickly, swinging his upper foot at the man.
Spear! Chanang! Window!
Kreuk!
The man deflected all of those attacks with his flamboyant sword skills.
He was laughing wryly.
“A bit slow for a boss, isn’t it?”
A man who provokes sarcastically.
The emotion of anger rises up in your chest.
I will definitely kill you! I will kill you!
Kuaaa!
With a roar through the open mouth, he swung his claws carrying all the weight………
The claws were stuck in a wooden pole, not a target. The claw marks were clearly visible on the pillar that had been scratched away.
At that time.
“Here it is, counter attack.”
Pushuk-
Kuhhhhh!!
From noble mtl dot com
Let’s let the sword, more piercing than the previous one, pierce into the body.
With pain all over the body-
My vision is blurred.
Kuuu….
My vision is getting blurry.
In the blurry sight ahead.
I saw smoke burning fiercely, and I saw the shape of a man walking leisurely through it.
“It’s a little weaker than it looks. I’m sorry, but I have to die.”
This man,
It was different from the bland people I’ve dealt with so far.
The man’s sword body reached the level of the man’s eyes………
Pushuk-
With the feeling of the scalp bursting.
The consciousness disappeared like a switch turned off.
It was just futile to close my eyes like this without even being able to properly injure the man who slaughtered my people and my land.
* * *
“Boo, is there a fire?”
“It’s a forest fire!”
Tagadak- Tagadak-
Two horsemen ran through the field.
In front of the field, the hills engulfed in flames were burning furiously.
The smoke has already completely covered the sky over the mountain, creating a gruesome sight.
The sound of the horses’ hooves became louder.
I headed for the mountains.
“What the hell happened! How could that mountain burn?”
“Hmm…. Doesn’t that monster live in that mountain?”
The two cavalrymen talked while driving.
Actually.
If it was a mountain located near a city, it was right to immediately mobilize the militia to put out the fire.
However.
No one lived around this hill called Jeongjeongbong.
And another one.
This hill was a nuisance to the people of Lefron.
Occasionally, hungry wild beasts would come up to the city and attack people.
The militiamen were frantic to catch those wild beasts.
Because deaths are also becoming more frequent,
There was even an order to send several units of the militia to the mountain of Jeonghwabong to dry the seeds of the monsters.
However.
A few militia units were all killed by a monster called a beast that lived in a cave in the mountain of Jeonghwabong Peak.
“Maybe the beast looks like a wolf and walks like a human? My friend saw the corpses of the militiamen who were killed by him, how hideous it was. What’s inside…….”
A horseman who was running spoke.
That was right.
Because of a beast who pretends to be a guardian in that hill.
The militias were not sent in any more.
To the militias who did not even belong to the elite, the beast was a monster itself.
So.
I had requested help through a complaint to the White Gate branch,
Soon they were going to clear this hill.
The wildfire spread like this unexpectedly.
Tagadak- Tagadak-
Worse!
Wheeying!
The two cavalrymen swung their whips and stopped the horses that were running.
The horse raised its front paws noisily and landed on the ground.
Took-
Two soldiers got off and looked up.
“The wildfires are really bad. Are you going to burn this mountain?”
“It would have been better, since this mountain is just full of beasts that kill people, and since they are all burned to death, isn’t it that we have one less job to do?”
At that time.
One of the soldiers’ eyes flashed open.
“Wait a minute. Excuse me! Look over there.”
I moved my gaze to the direction one of the soldiers was pointing and looked there.
A man was walking with a sword.
“People? It’s a person Could that be the arsonist?”
The two soldiers took out their spears and spears and pointed them at the man as they approached.
