Chapter 171
Early winter with heavy snowstorms.
Even in the midst of that, a man without a coat stood in the middle of downtown Seoul.
He looked around while holding a thick red bow.
With his long, flowing hair tied back, the man paid no attention to his surroundings.
Rather, passers-by or citizens passing by the area only looked at him.
“Who is it?”
“Did you come in a time machine? what?”
“Are these days hunters like that?”
“What is that red bow again?”
“Still, doesn’t it look like something is in the air?”
“Why do I look like a cosplayer? giggle.”
He looks completely different than he did five years ago.
Naturally, the citizens could not recognize the man’s identity.
That would be too.
He had his long hair tied back, but his bangs obscured his face.
It was even more so because it had been longer.
“Hmm, so much has changed.”
It’s been 5 years.
Away from ordinary life, somewhere deep in the mountains in the northeast, only like a wanderer.
wandering life.
The man only knew that the years were passing like four months.
However, I couldn’t.
A small sapper held in his right hand.
The meaning of a drop of elixir containing the same specific magic ingredient as himself contained in it.
I just couldn’t pass it up.
“I’ll have to check it myself.”
Others referred to him as
The strongest bow master of the current generation, ‘Hyeonwang.’
The red bow he is currently holding is the same as symbolizing him.
The myth that any hard metal material shatters in front of the Hyeonwang’s enemy is still widely known worldwide.
At the time, his impact was beyond imagination.
Of course, this was nothing more than a myth and the past.
Over the course of five years, so many changes in the earth’s crust have occurred in the current era… .
It was in an instant that the existence of the Hyeonwang was gradually forgotten.
The reason he came here in the middle of downtown Seoul was simple.
The only one with the same specific magical power as himself.
I wanted to see him with my own two eyes.
Before long, he walked through the city. No, I took one step ahead of a specific destination.
A long and tall building standing in the middle of downtown Seoul.
On the edge of the building, there was also a mark symbolizing the Woohwang Guild.
“… Then, shall we go?”
***
Woohwang Guild Headquarters Master Room.
Choi Deok-ho felt abnormal signs when a cold wave blew in the early winter.
He roughly understood what this meant.
“It seems Gero has a new guest.”
The blizzard that was still blowing in the early winter and the cold wave were making him flutter.
“This end of the year will be warm for the first time in a while.”
With his hands behind his back, Deokho Choi smiled.
he already felt Along with the fact that a welcome person has appeared, he will arrive here soon.
However, his prediction came much earlier than expected.
smart-
With a couple of knocks, Choi Deok-ho’s chief of staff hurriedly bent down and opened his mouth.
“No, Master.”
“What is it?”
“He-he appeared.”
“Don’t be afraid and tell me straight up. what appears?”
“Hyeon, Hyeonwang came to our office building.”
“Hmm, this really came earlier than I thought.”
“Did you expect?”
“To some extent, I expected it. Please guide me this way.”
“All right!”
I would never have thought that the present king would come all the way to this place on his own two feet.
It seems that it was in a hurry. Even Choi Deok-ho did not expect that a drop of elixir would have such a great effect.
Because of this, in many ways, Choi Deok-ho had no choice but to highly value the influence of Cha Min-joon.
He was unable to restore Jeong Do-yu, whose mind was controlled nearly 90% by the dissociative hunter, to his original form, and even summoned the current king, whom he thought he would be able to meet before the end of his life.
Now, he also considered Cha Min-joon’s existence to be a level that could not be taken lightly.
Soon after, the door to the master room burst open.
“long time no see. Master?”
“Oh, how did you come to this distant place? Bow Master?”
“Puhahahaha! It’s been a long time since I’ve heard the term Bow Master.”
“Are you still not dead?”
“Is that right?!”
Beyond simply being between a teacher and a disciple, from the standpoint of the third person, it seemed safe to say that they were like close friends who had been together for a long time.
While having such a simple (?) tea time.
Hyeonwang first began to take luck.
“Where is that friend now?”
“Heh heh, it’s still there. It’s a matter of temper.”
“Because there was no reason to come here other than that.”
“Hmm, maybe now… .”
gulp-
The hyeonwang swallowed a dry saliva.
Seeing that Choi Deok-ho was taking a bit of a break, I had a slight suspicion that he might have turned aggro on himself.
“Why don’t you loosen up on that expression? Don’t worry. Do you think I would have gone this far to get you here?”
“It’s because I’ve been tricked by Master on more than one or two things.”
“hahahaha! Isn’t that an old story?”
“Maybe not now.”
“Ah, man! What do you see me as?”
“So, let’s check it out now.”
In response, Deokho Choi took out his smartphone from his inside pocket and held it up.
A keypad that is naturally pressed soon after.
It seemed natural, as if I had made several phone calls.
To-to-
Then there were several beeps, and a familiar voice came over the receiver.
-hello.
“It’s been a while, Minjun Cha! It’s me.”
It was Cha Min-joon.
In his opinion, it was the situation of Xenix Academy, which had just ended.
I wondered if he was still staying at the Jenix Academy… .
Fortunately, he didn’t know that he would be so welcome to hear that he was still staying at Zenix.
Eventually, as soon as the call was finished as simply as possible, Deokho Choi stood up straight away.
“Come on, get up. Shouldn’t you meet a friend who has the same magical power as you?”
In Choi Deok-ho’s eyes, of course, there is sincerity.
It was a look that couldn’t even find a playful look.
Accordingly, the present king is also subtly mixed with relief and curiosity.
I hurriedly jumped out of my seat and got up.
***
Minjun was slowly heading towards the front door of Jenix.
Then, a black car stopped in front of Min-jun and the window opened.
“Long time no see. How are you? Cha Min-joon.”
“Yes, you still look correct.”
“then. He looks like an old man, but it’s still time for him to be active.”
While Choi Deok-ho lightly asked his regards.
Someone came out of the car door on the other side.
‘I finally met you.’
Min-joon immediately sensed it just by looking at the man’s impression.
That an unusual person suddenly appeared in front of him.
‘Hyeonwang… . He is the wise king.’
The red bow representing his symbolism was not visible, but the atmosphere itself was mysterious and dreamy.
And there was definitely a reason why I was able to be certain of this intuition I felt now.
It was because the flow of magical power felt in parts of his body was fluctuating.
The circulation of magical power began to shake more dramatically and strongly than usual.
That Minjun is already like that.
Conversely, it was predicted that the current king would feel the same flow of magical power.
Perhaps because of this, the Hyeonwang wants to check carefully… .
Minjun came closer.
“Did you make this elixir yourself?”
At first, I wanted to show it with a sapper bottle, but I could see that there was a drop or so of the ‘Arapin Elixir’ made by Min-jun faintly in it.
Maybe that one drop or so brought ‘Hyeonwang’ to the middle of Seoul.
I was just thinking about it.
In any case, Minjun immediately nodded his head at the current king’s question and did not avert his gaze.
“Yes, I made it myself.”
“Then, how did you get the specific magic power that is the ingredient of this elixir?”
“… Do I really have to say that?”
“Is there any reason not to speak?”
“I’m a little bit picky about people.”
“Puhahahahaha! He’s a pretty funny guy.”
Hyeonwang laughed loudly on the spot. His boisterous (?) laugh never stopped, to the point where passers-by could see that he might have a mental problem.
Even if you laugh so innocently… .
The wise king asks another question this time.
It must have been Min-jun, who had the same magical powers as himself.
It was filled with something contemplative.
“Can you hold out your hand?”
“Well, it’s not a difficult request.”
Swoop-
Minjun held out his left arm in front of the king. Then he leaned over and examined Minjun’s left hand closely.
‘As expected, it stands out clearly. It’s really a certain magical power.’
I couldn’t believe it. A certain magical power that he thought only he had.
However, as if showing off, a certain bluish mana flowed randomly around the palm of Min-jun’s left hand.
Moreover, the sharpness itself was different from his own in terms of how vivid it looked.
‘Certainly clear. This level of clarity… .’
It was as if seeing the first time the wise king had a certain magic power.
The expectations that only those with certain magical powers can enjoy are high, but apart from that.
It is also sharply divided according to the sharpness.
In particular, the specific magical power that Min-joon feels like now is more than the present king thought.
It was more than expected.
This is more than just a hunter, beyond the limitless expectations of growth in the future.
It implies that there is nothing wrong with exceeding the level.
‘Fortunately, I didn’t go in vain.’
On the other hand, the Hyeonwang felt relieved, albeit a little.
That would be too.
It was because the existence of a specific magical power was so rare, and at the same time, there was a structure in which those who passed on a specific magical power like himself could inherit it right away.
Of course, I didn’t get to know Minjun in detail yet… .
Hyeonwang knew his current situation better than anyone else.
‘There’s no need for me to have this mana that’s not much left anymore.’
The curse of the demon king that the current king is facing now is only savage.
That said, it was unfair to just pass the time without any meaning.
Because of this, the wise king can be.
If you have a certain magic power… .
As long as you meet your standards… .
There was enough willingness to pass on the specific magic power that was left to someone else.
And, little by little, I thought that the owner might be ‘Cha Min-joon’ who finally appeared in front of me… .
