115 – The Equation of Love (7)
***
Park Kyu-seong could not hide his embarrassment.
Because the monster suddenly appeared.
It’s not just one or two.
Quite a number.
‘Eight monsters?’
At that level, casualties are inevitable.
Because monsters won’t sit still in one place like an idiot.
And this place is right in the middle of downtown. People are very crowded. Even if the monsters move even slightly, it is obvious that considerable property damage and loss of life will occur.
‘It’s a big deal. I don’t have wide range attack ability.’
Park Kyu-seong is a close-range player.
He can’t take down multiple monsters at once.
Also, the current Park Gyu-seong is unarmed. This situation is not good for Park Gyu-seong, whose combat power varies greatly depending on his armament.
‘Of course, defeating those monsters won’t be a big problem.’
Because Park Kyu-seong is one of the strongest players in Korea.
He’s a high ranker in the top 100 in Korea.
You can defeat monsters of that level without too much trouble.
But what I am worried about right now is not Park Kyu-seong.
The people around me are the problem. Until Park Kyu-seong subdues those monsters, it is unlikely that the people around him will be safe.
Because the moment Park Kyu-seong uses his ability, the monsters will run away.
And Park Kyu-seong doesn’t have many means to catch up with monsters.
It was the evil of close-range abilities.
‘If only I had the right equipment… ….’
If I had been fully armed, I would have been able to subdue those monsters in a short time.
And in that short time, monsters will either harm people or run away.
‘It will take about 10 minutes until the anti-monster response team arrives. Until then, monsters can’t stay still…… After all, how much loss of life should I take?’
Park Gyu-seong bit his lower lip once and turned his gaze to Han Seo-jun.
“Mr. Seojun.”
“Yes.”
Park Kyu-seong looked sideways at the monsters with a serious gaze and quietly floated his rhymes.
“Anyway, it will take some time for the response team to arrive. So, Seo-jun, you are hiding here with the people. I will draw attention to those monsters.”
“Alone? If you don’t have any equipment, Kyu-seong’s fighting ability will drop dramatically. And it’s really unfavorable against the majority.”
If this place was inside the tower, I wouldn’t have to worry about the civilians. Also, even if there were a lot of monsters, the team members with good limbs would have helped.
However, this place is neither inside the tower nor near the team.
The situation was bad in many ways.
“It’s okay. If it’s a monster like that, I can take it down.”
“I guess so.”
Han Seo-jun nodded his head.
“However, since the monsters can be scattered, I think it would be better to deal with them all at once, but Mr. Kyu-seong doesn’t have the ability to attack on a large scale, doesn’t he?”
“Oh, yes. But now I can’t help it…….”
Han Seo-joon, who looked at Park Gyu-seong, who swallowed a groan with a gloomy face, patted him on the shoulder and stood up.
Then Park Gyu-seong frowned at him as if in doubt.
Why did he suddenly stand up and move his feet toward the outside of the cafe?
Are you going to deal with those monsters?
“Seojun? What are you doing?”
“I will do it. It has a wide range attack ability. It’s better for me to step out. Kyu-seong, please protect people.”
“Wait a minute. Seojun is an E-rank hunter, right? It’s dangerous.”
“Okay.”
Han Seo-Jun shrugged his shoulders and asked back as if it was not a big deal, but his eyes were glaring at the monster with sharp eyes.
“Seojun. Those monsters are pretty high level. It looks like it’s about level 3-4, but at least if it’s not a rank B to A rank…….”
“I know, those monsters are strong. In order to deal with that number of monsters, a few B-rank talents will have to form a team.”
In order to defeat eight level 3-4 monsters without damage, multiple B-rank monsters or a single A-rank monster are required.
That’s why Park Kyu-seong couldn’t understand.
Why does Han Seo-joon go out as a monster?
“Don’t worry too much because that ability is above A rank.”
“Yes?”
At Seo-jun Han’s words, Park Gyu-seong had no choice but to blink his eyes.
“Anyway, Seoyoon guaranteed it.”
In fact, Seo-Jun Han had some doubts about his own skills.
Because when he sparred with them, he always got beaten up.
I said that I became really strong in words, but it didn’t touch my skin.
But I definitely trusted what they said.
They guaranteed that it would be okay, but let’s not hesitate unnecessarily and be confident.
“Is Seoyoon, yo?”
Ability above rank A?
All of a sudden, what does that mean?
It’s quite serious to dismiss it as a joke.
Didn’t he also mention Seoyoon’s name? I guess I’m serious. No way? No, Seojun Han is definitely a support type debuff, right? But why?
Numerous questions ran through Park Kyu-sung’s head.
“Seojun, what does that mean…… Uh?”
As Park Gyu-seong was about to express his question, he was able to discover a strange fact.
‘Wait a minute, don’t the monsters keep quiet? What?’
I noticed now.
The fact that the monsters haven’t moved since a while ago.
“Uh, huh? What is that?”
“Why are the monsters like that?”
“Something is wrong? It’s as if I’m being held so tightly that I can’t move.”
People’s mysterious voices knocked on the ears of Han Seo-joon and Park Gyu-seong. Park Gyu-seong stared blankly at the monsters with slightly surprised eyes. The monsters say, “Quite ah ae ae ae ae ae!” It was making a roar.
‘Is that a psychokinesis?’
The monsters were possessed by an unknown, intangible power.
My whole body was shaking and I struggled to move somehow, but it was no use as if I was chained tightly.
All the monsters could do was let out a roar.
“Ke-e, eh, eh!”
“Kiririri, Ririririk?!”
“Kerrr, rrr, rrr!”
Suddenly, the monsters started a rampage.
I struggled with all my might in pain, but nothing changed.
It was because the powerful telekinesis ability was holding down the monsters’ entire bodies like rocks. The monsters were slowly dying, held tightly to an intangible force.
‘Who the hell?’
Are there people with telekinesis abilities around here?
I have a lot of questions.
From noble mtl dot com
At that level of telekinesis, it’s at least rank B.
And it’s not common to have a telekinesis ability of B rank or higher. You will be treated wherever you go. But then, a thought flashed through Park Kyu-sung’s mind. The attitude of Han Seo-joon, who had been confident from earlier, caught my heart. No, wait. No way?
She thought in her mind that it was nonsense and at the same time naturally turned her head toward Han Seo-jun.
Then, wouldn’t the image of Han Seo-jun, exhaling a hot breath and stretching his right hand toward the monster, clearly came into his eyes?
“Whoa… ….”
He clenched his right hand, which was outstretched towards the monster.
As if trying to hold onto monsters.
“Kee, eh eh eh eh, eh eh eh?!”
As they clenched their teeth and clenched their hands as hard as they could, the monsters let out sad screams and gushed blood.
The bodies of the monsters began to distort as if they were being compressed by the invisible hands tightly grasping them.
Suddenly, all the bones in his body were crushed, and at the same time, the flesh was crushed to the fullest.
“It’s a bit difficult.”
It doesn’t work as well as I practiced.
However, he was able to neutralize eight monsters.
When Seo-jun Han draws his finger one more time, it feels good! With a destructive sound, the bodies of the monsters were crushed like old tin cans.
“Pretty dear, dear!”
“Keee, eee!”
Kwaduk! Fujijik!
Blood gushed from the bodies of the monsters.
It really turned into a piece of meat. It was a rather terrifying scene. But Seojun Han did not stop. He certainly used his psychokinesis ability to pressure the monsters until they died.
Suddenly, the monsters, compressed into a mess, collapsed in agony.
“…… What, what is that?”
Those who witnessed the scene had no choice but to put on a dumbfounded expression.
Isn’t that why the monsters weren’t killed at once?
There are very few hunters who can perform wide-area attacks like this.
It is an unbelievable sight with both eyes open.
“Bah, just a monster? What happened?”
“Could it be that there was an awakening ability?”
“No, isn’t that monster level 4 red-jawed king ant?”
“Level 4, 4?”
“It would be difficult to deal with someone with B-rank or higher abilities, but with one shot?”
“Wow, f*ck. I woke up Isn’t that just a telekinesis ability? Was there Jihyun Lee?”
It wasn’t common to have such a telekinesis ability, so people naturally had no choice but to make a fuss about it. It was a truly amazing sight. It was the first time in my life to see it in person. It was a rather cruel sight, but I didn’t mind it much now. I just couldn’t calm my excitement.
“Did he do it by any chance?”
“Looks like you were doing something while walking towards the monster.”
“Isn’t that person Seojun Han? I heard you took care of a level 3 monster the other day.”
A moment when people are confused.
“… ….”
Han Seo-jun was skimming around with his eyebrows furrowed.
Because he missed the most annoying monster.
I didn’t miss it because I was careless. He freed himself from the restraints of his psychokinesis and escaped. Also, he wasn’t an ordinary monster. It bothered me a little. Could it be that he ran away?
No. I can feel a bit of murderous intent. A life that stings the skin. Retaliation will come soon.
Han Seo-joon will quietly bring out his psychokinesis ability…….
“Mr. Seojun! Dangerous!”
“…… !”
It was then.
Park Kyu-sung’s voice rang out.
Chang-Geurang! And the cafe window was smashed.
Something broke into the cafe. He was a monster
Han Seo-jun tried to use his telekinesis ability quickly, but the monster was a little faster. The monster’s claws were rushing in.
Despite being vigilant, I missed the monster’s movements.
‘Why is it so fast?’
Really fast.
I only blinked my eyes once, but it’s right in front of my nose.
It seems to be much faster than Jumina, who has the ability to move at high speed.
If that monster had targeted Park Gyu-seong, Park Gyu-seong would have been able to avoid it. But not Seojun Han. I lack the experience and skills to dodge such a quick attack.
‘Really. It’s faster than I’ve heard.’
That monster’s name is Grandel.
He is a monster that is treated as level 5 or 6.
He has super-fast movement and super-fast regeneration, so he’s tricky to deal with. He also has some tolerance for telekinesis and vibration. I needed to be careful.
However, the resistance of the psychokinesis ability is only resistance.
Since it wasn’t completely free, I tried to kill it with overwhelming output. I was halfway successful, but I didn’t know that I would get out of my psychokinesis at the end.
It seems that the tolerance was stronger than I thought. Of course, if it was Jihyun, it would have been nabal and just crushing it.
‘It’s too late to stop it with my psychokinesis.’
The monster’s claws reached right in front of his nose.
It can’t be avoided. Sharp nails flashed sharply. It is a nail that cuts through even cast iron. Human flesh would be treated like tofu.
“Eh, ex -!”
“Ugh! Mr. Seojun! Not…… !”
Tang!
There was a metallic sound and the sound of metal clashing.
Grandel’s fingernails scratched Han Seo-jun’s face.
Park Gyu-seong frowned and predicted Han Seo-joon’s death.
I wondered how Han Seo-joon was able to use that level of telekinesis, but apart from that, the attack just now was very dangerous. If it were a normal person, his face would have been amputated. It was difficult to see the appearance of Han Seo-joon, who had become a piece of meat pouring out blood.
‘What should I say to Seoyoon?’
I was confused at the thought that Han Seo-joon would have died.
He was a guy who went out with a girl he liked, but he wasn’t a bad guy.
Even though Park Kyu-seong was by his side, he couldn’t protect Han Seo-jun. He felt guilty He had nothing to say to Seoyoon. He never imagined that he would die like this. He said he would make Seoyoon happy. The appetite is bitter
“Ririric?”
The monster growled in puzzlement.
He suddenly took a step back.
When Grandel checked his right hand, he found that his fingernail was broken.
The cut fingernails that fell to the ground landed in Park Kyu-sung’s eyes.
Why did that monster’s claws break? When I looked at Han Seo-joon without clearing up my embarrassing mind, Han Seo-joon was just looking at Grandel with a normal face.
‘What is it? Uh, what happened?’
Could it be that you blocked it with your telekinesis ability in that short time?
No. Then, what was that metallic sound from just now?
You must have been hit by an attack?
“…… After all, the body strengthening ability is useful.”
Han Seo-jun muttered an incomprehensible mutter to himself again.
“Eh, eh, eh!”
The monster made up his mind to get out of the cafe in a hurry with a sense of danger.
“Where.”
That moment.
Han Seo-joon tapped the ground with his right foot.
With one thump, he stomps his foot and his ground thumps! Wouldn’t that be freezing?
Grandel was startled by the cold that spread around Han Seo-jun, but it was already too late.
Grandel’s body rapidly began to freeze.
That monster was very vulnerable to cold. His muscles stiffened from the low chill.
I stumbled and fell while frozen. It was icy, so I slipped all the way. Moreover, she was moving at super high speed. Because of that, I couldn’t overcome inertia.
“Kee, eh, eh, keke?!”
Boom! And rolled across the cafe.
She seems to have been quite shocked since she fell pretty hard.
Is it like a person who has been in a car accident? Oh, of course, that monster doesn’t seem to have suffered any physical damage, but if it’s lying like that, it’s easy to become a target for Han Seo-jun.
“Whoa…… Good. Then.”
Han Seo-joon carefully used his freezing ability so as not to damage the surroundings.
I knocked on the ground once more, and an ice sheet formed in the direction of Grandel, and at the same time, both legs froze.
The monster was startled as his legs froze in an instant.
The body that was in contact with the ground was also gradually covered with ice.
Grandel said “Keee!” And let out a roar.
He broke the ice with all his might and tried to escape.
‘With this level of freezing ability, I can easily break it.’
It’s still a bit immature to use the freezing ability.
‘But.’
Han Seo-joon, who was watching the scene, tightly restrained his whole body using his psychokinesis and freezing abilities to prevent Grandel from escaping.
Of course, it was very difficult to use both abilities at the same time, so it seemed that the ability would be released if I was a little careless.
“Keee, eee…” ….”
The monster tilted his head slightly and looked up at Han Seo-jun and howled sadly.
Han Seo-joon, who had approached right in front of the monster, quietly looked down at the monster.
“… ….”
In the midst of countless people watching at cafes, restaurants, etc., Seojun Han slowly raised his fist after using his body strengthening ability without hesitation.
“Ki-ki-yi? What a win!”
“…… After all, I don’t like monsters.”
With that horse, I hit the monster’s head with all my might.
“Ah, ah ah ah ah ah ah!”
The ground shuddered with the sound of cheekbones being crushed.
With each blow he struck, the ice cracked and dust flew.
The ground was sinking little by little because it hit so hard.
It was a tremendous strength.
Some kind of shell sound.
People swallowed dry saliva.
What is it? That person? How many abilities do you have?
Physiokinetic ability, freezing ability, body strengthening ability?
It is said that there are about 10 people with more than two types of multiple abilities in Korea, but most of them are of low level, but they have three abilities that seem to be at least B rank or higher?
I can’t believe it even after seeing it myself.
To think he had three abilities like that.
I haven’t even heard of it. It’s like a mixture of Lee Ji-hyun, Choi Seo-yoon, and Ganghwa-ryeon, doesn’t it?
Of course, it looks like they mixed their backward compatibility abilities, but the balance is good. Didn’t you just allow a melee attack, but not block it with your body enhancement ability? Synergy was good because we were able to complement each other.
“Haa…… Don’t die Is it because of regenerative ability?”
It was a monster that was half-damaged and spitting out bloody water, but it managed to keep its life alive.
It was a strangely abnormal vitality.
Bubbling bubbles rose from the crushed bones and mashed flesh.
I could tell that the wound was slowly regenerating.
‘I don’t die like this after all.’
I didn’t panic because I knew about Grandel’s characteristics.
I was simply experimenting to see if I could kill it by hitting it like this.
If it were Kanghwaryun who was here, he would have been able to kill the monster with a single attack, but Seojun Han was not Ganghwaryun.
No matter how much her ability was taken away, there was a fundamental difference.
‘Shall we finish soon?’
Han Seo-joon slowly pulled out a single sword from his waist.
It was a dismantling dagger used to peel off the monster’s skin.
It’s unsuitable for combat, but it didn’t matter.
I held the dagger in reverse and gradually generated magic power.
A bluish sword shimmered before I knew it.
‘Like Yerin did at the tower last time… ….’
I tried using Yerin’s ability.
A positive force for all things sword-related.
Thanks to this ability, it was possible to imitate swordsmanship that could not be imitated by Han Seo-jun’s skills.
Han Seo-joon used his body strengthening ability to stab Grandel’s skull with his sword, then, like Ryu Ye-rin did, he created magical powers and shredded the inside of the monster.
Fire, fire!
The smell of grilled meat rose.
A bluish flame shot up, and the monster let out a scream with all its might.
But that’s only for a moment.
The monster whose head was golden brown faced his death without being able to regenerate any more.
Even if they say they have the ability to regenerate, there is no answer if they burn their brains.
This was the end of a level 5 monster.
It was a meaningless death if it was meaningless.
‘…… Those monsters alone?’
Park Gyu-seong looked at Han Seo-joon with an incomprehensible look.
It seems to take less than 10 minutes at best.
There aren’t many people with that level of ability.
How can Seojun Han.
“Mr. Kyu-seong.”
“Oh, yes. Yes?”
Park Gyu-seong was startled by Han Seo-jun’s sudden voice and stuttered his words once.
“Wouldn’t this be roughly the level of an A-rank hunter?”
Han Seo-joon said while shaking off the blood.
It was really fortunate that the solution was as easy as I thought.
It was truly miraculous that there were no casualties despite the appearance of eight monsters.
‘A Rank…… Is it real? Even if I say that this is really an A rank, I really believe it.’
It’s just amazing how strong he’s gotten this far in just a few months.
Really, really, aren’t we ready to attack the tower now?
Han Seo-joon was new in many ways.
With the appearance of the Grand Monster Response Team approaching from afar, people approached Han Seo-joon and Park Gyu-seong and made a fuss.
And starting from this day, Han Seo-joon became widely known as a new rising star and dark horse in Korea.
***
“…… ?”
The rooftop of a building that fell slightly.
Someone is looking down into the street.
Looking at Han Seo-joon like a kaleidoscope with his hands in a circle.
“…… Why is that person over there?”
A little sleepy voice.
The woman muttered in a sleepy voice with her eyes half-closed.
“Those abilities…… Have you absorbed your abilities again?”
The woman pops her question mark above her head as she pats her lips. She swayed like a small question mark, then swung! She did and disappeared.
“Wouldn’t it be a bit dangerous to leave it alone?”
Suddenly, with a sleepy face, he looks at Han Seo-joon in silence and mumbles.
“Should I kill you right now?”
Her name is Charlotte Raspberry.
From noble mtl dot com
She is a top 10 hunter from England and the right-hand man of Saint Cheonnyeo.
