The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood Chapter 173

Episode 173. The Choi Sisters (2)

South Korea has been establishing strong diplomatic ties with one country since the Dungeon Shock: Singapore.

There was once a vast and cumbersome gate called the [Ice Palace] that flourished in this world.

Its origins were limited to Singapore and Korea.

As we interacted with each other to conquer this dungeon, at some point a sense of cooperation naturally developed.

Korea and Singapore have not had bad relations before, but [Ice Palace] has certainly helped them become closer.

And how close is this intimacy?

It’s enough to send hunters in a hurry when a difficult gate appears in either country.

Hunter dispatch system of both countries.

The most famous example is Jeong Ha-seong’s [Baek In-tap] strategy.

And the next thing that comes to mind is the dragon hunt of a character named Choi Jin. Singapore has long been famous for the frequent appearance of dragons.

‘I’m a dragon hunter.’

The poster boy for the ‘Faith’ guild with an office in Chuncheon. Choi Jin.

He is said to be a first generation member who played an active role in the battle to recapture northern Seoul. He is said to be the person who has slain the most dragons.

Anyway, the rumors about the hunter were varied and colorful, but none of them were as interesting as this sentence.

[The lower 90% of tearful awakeners… … .

The story of how he transformed into an ‘A-class’ overnight? Jeongseong Ilbo: 20XX-12-22]

As an article from a few years ago reported, she was the first case of a ‘birth class change’.

‘Oh my.’

I watched the Awakener approaching from the other side.

A stylish short cut that completely exposes the ears. A large scar across the chin.

And a woman wrapped tightly up to her neck in a garment made of lizardman hide.

Judging from the current situation, it is likely that the other person is either a person who hates wasting time or is simply lazy.

There is no particular reason why a high-class hunter who earns a lot of money would not remove an old scar, other than it being annoying. If you assume so, then the fact that he has short body hair can be interpreted as a similar result to some extent.

“Sister! Over here. Over here!”

An Yoon-seung, who was standing next to him, raised his hand in greeting when he saw the other person.

Yes, today I borrowed some of this A-class power.

This is a story that came up briefly in a conversation one day, but in fact, Hunter Ahn here is the cousin of the dragon slayer over there.

‘Your bloodline is good. I didn’t know so many excellent sorcerers came from your family.’

The woman approached me with the sound of her loafers’ heels. I politely greeted the Awakened one who had approached me.

“Hello, Hunter Jin Choi.”

Then, a man named Choi Jin stopped nearby, two or three steps away.

‘Hmm.’

By the way, is this what [Dragon’s Heart] looks like when applied?

I glanced at the state of the person in front of me. The opponent’s heart was clearly beating with extraordinary magical power.

‘This is more of a dragon hunter… … .’

Half-human, half-dragon.

I looked at the woman and thought of a word, when suddenly a new shadow appeared at the edge of my vision.

“hello!”

An Awakened person with very long hair, as if he had stolen and pasted on Jin Choi’s hair.

The figure with the impressive sharp fangs was almost clinging to Choi Jin with his arms linked.

He spoke with only his face visible in that state.

“I am Choi Jin-hee!”

“It’s Choi Jin… right? Your two names are the same?”

“No. My name is Choi Jin Hee.”

Why do they name their children so confusingly?

Anyway, they both look similar and have the same surname, Choi. That woman is probably the awakened one that was mentioned on the internet.

‘It’s the younger brother’s side.’

It is already a well-known story in the industry that Jin-i Choi works with her sisters.

I belatedly revealed my physical name after hearing the other person’s introduction.

“Yes, Ms. Jinhee Choi. Nice to meet you. My name is Ki-ryeo Kim.”

But when I reached out to shake hands, Jinhee’s eyes suddenly widened.

Red eyes like mashed pomegranates.

Come to think of it, could such a color appear in the irises of Earthlings?

“What is it?!”

Chin. Then Jinhee grabbed my wrist and shouted.

“Why does it look so delicious? Wow, it looks really delicious… … . Wow, can I have just one sip?”

“Uh, yes?”

“Oh my god. Oppa, your blood looks so delicious!”

“What now… … .”

“Jinhee! Stop it!”

As she was about to panic at the sudden situation, Jin Hunter Choi was startled and stopped her.

You took my brother away from me.

“It’s rude to meet someone for the first time. Have you already forgotten about the scolding you got last time?”

“no…….”

“What’s wrong? Seriously!”

Choi Jin-eun seemed quite flustered by her sister’s sudden behavior, but as she watched quietly, Ahn Yoon-seung soon began explaining the situation.

“Hyung, I’m sorry. I think Hunter Jinhee has a bit of a blood sucking desire because of her awakened ability. But it’s definitely not dangerous… … .”

“Awakening ability?”

“You didn’t know?”

Sharp teeth and red eyes.

I’m an alien, so I didn’t really think this difference in appearance was strange, but it turns out that it was her unique ability.

“Sister Jinhee is an awakened mutant of the Mutant Realm. It feels like she has two forms, like a werewolf?”

“aha.”

“In reality, it looks exactly like a vampire.”

There was a shapeshifter here too.

I was very interested in the story about a sorcerer who could imitate imaginary beings.

But guess what? As soon as I fixed my gaze to observe the other person, a murderous aura flowed out from the other side.

‘Huh?’

Choi Jin Hunter is looking this way.

Wouldn’t it be right to open your eyes like that just to glance at your little brother?

“Hunter Kim Ki-ryeo, excuse me for a moment. Anyway, you said you had something to ask me today.”

I was holding my breath, scared by the Dragon Slayer’s gaze, when suddenly a noise flowed through the silence.

-Beep, beep, beep.

It was the alarm sound coming from Choi Jin’s smartwatch.

“Hey, sir.”

Is this a contact from the guild?

“I clearly told you to check properly, so why are you telling people to come and go with this… … .”

Jin Choi checks the text message I received and furrows her brow.

And then he apologized, saying that he had some company business coming up and that he would have to leave for a while.

“An Yoon-seung. Take good care of your sister until I get back. Never leave her alone. Got it?”

“yes!”

Choi Jin said that and turned around and walked away. In that brief moment, he glared at me again.

It’s really annoying. I have no idea why that hunter is so hostile.

‘Are you just a bad tempered person?’

Well, but these kind of pointless fights were a daily occurrence in Alphauri.

Those of us who were left behind decided to have a drink in a nearby lounge until Choi Jin arrived.

For reference, this is the lobby on the first floor of the Faith Guild.

And there’s one really cool culture on Earth. Most guilds of this size have vending machines inside their buildings.

***

Finally we arrived at the break room.

-Ring, ring. Rumble!

I get my share of cider from the vending machine, then press the button for the sugar coffee that Ahn Yoon-seung is going to drink.

“Oh my!”

“why?”

But before the coffee he had purchased could even be poured into a paper cup, Ahn Yoon-seung suddenly shouted.

“I guess I left my cell phone in the car.”

“okay?”

“Excuse me, bro, but can I go to the parking lot for a minute?”

“Why are you asking for permission for all that? Go.”

Slurp slurp.

While Yoon Seung was out of the room, Kiryeo took the coffee from the vending machine and sat down.

At the round table, Choi Jin-hee, with her thin hair, was already sitting.

“hmm.”

A situation where you suddenly find yourself alone with someone else’s relative.

In the awkward atmosphere, the other person was flailing his empty hands, and looking at that, Ki-rya suddenly had this thought.

‘The act of changing and fixing the body into a different form is quite a complex technique. How could a mammal like this be born with such magic naturally…?

Is it a thousand?

He valued the talent of the person he was trying to impress.

But soon I had to put my thoughts aside when I heard a loud voice.

“excuse me!”

Jinhee, who was choosing her words after a long time, started to lose her temper. I wonder why she hesitated so much.

“I didn’t eat lunch today.”

“yes?”

“That’s why it’s so hard. Can I drink blood just once?”

“blood?”

“I’m hungry. Really.”

Gulp.

The modern vampire wearing the mask of the Awakened One now drooled at the sight of his opponent.

‘Do you smell anything from me?’

It’s natural to feel nervous when someone suddenly treats you like groceries.

I raised my arm belatedly to check what kind of scent was coming from my body, but as expected, I didn’t feel any particular characteristic.

That’s why it’s even more questionable. Why did he only ask for my blood when he didn’t say anything like that to Seung Yoon who came with him?

“Is it possible that Ahn Yoon-seung is not talking because he is family?”

“yes?”

Since I had nothing to do anyway, I decided to just satisfy my curiosity while I was at it.

“You’ve been saying since earlier that my blood would taste good, but what’s your standard…?”

When he asks a question, the shapeshifter answers immediately.

“I don’t know.”

It was a bit of a confusing answer though.

“But do you just feel like it tastes good? Everyone has different tastes. For one, Ahn Yoon-seung is really not that good.”

“Not really… … .”

“My sister said that I like high-grade food. But last time, the B-grade food tasted better.”

The woman lowers her head.

“It’s hard to explain. Anyway, your blood will definitely taste good.”

It’s not a very positive evaluation.

She soon grumbled with a sullen face.

“Oh, but can’t I just have one sip? Anyway, it’s because of that scary old man. Now my sister is always scolding me.”

It was almost like a soliloquy, but it was still audible from this distance.

“Scary old man?”

I was about to drink a can of soda I had bought from a vending machine, but my actions suddenly stopped because of the name that came out.

“I am an awakened person named Changho.”

The shapeshifter continues:

“I met that person a long time ago! It was the first time in my life that I felt something delicious. So I bit his arm without realizing it.”

“no way.”

“I got hit hard.”

Well then, that’s right.

The author is not the type of person to leave alone a hunter who reveals this to him.

“And you too are just like Changho!”

But I didn’t know the conversation would flow like this.

“Is it the same?”

“I can’t stand it either.”

“Oh, I’m just asking, do you get similar feelings from Jeong Ha-seong or Esther?”

“Jeong Ha-seong? Just a little bit. And I don’t know who the person who spoke later is.”

As Choi Jin guessed, it may have had something to do with rank.

While Jeong Ha-seong, who has nothing to be envious of in terms of awakening skills, is slightly inferior to Kang Chang-ho, who is in the lower S-class, he is receiving favorable reviews.

It’s hard to figure out. But that’s just how people’s tastes are.

He quickly changed the subject of conversation after pondering the tastes of the vampire he was trying to please.

‘Yes. People should eat what they want to eat to live.’

It was because I couldn’t turn away from the sorrowful gaze I had been feeling since a while ago.

“Hunter Jinhee Choi, can you show me your wallet for a moment?”

What followed was a somewhat unexpected request.

The other person took out his wallet in a daze at Kiria’s words, and inside the wallet were yellow bills peeking out.

One sheet, two sheets, three sheets… … .

About 150,000 won worth of cash.

“Let me see, give me all that cash and I’ll give you a sip of blood.”

“yes?”

“If you look at it this way, it’s like providing food, so you have to pay for it.”

He was skilled in restoration techniques and could quickly replenish lost blood, but he did not turn down opportunities to profit from them.

Is it because I spend all my earned money on magic tools? These days, I really have to save money on lunch.

‘I guess I’ll buy some beef with that.’

Since I was going to show sympathy, I decided to ask for a small reward.

Of course, Choi Jin-hee is very happy to accept this offer. To be honest, 150,000 won is nothing to a B-class hunter.

“Really? Can I really drink it?”

Bam!

Choi Jin-hee stands up from her seat with her eyes shining. Kim Ki-ryeo, who sees her, nods and rolls up the sleeves on his arms.

A wizard who sacrifices his body for the hungry. It’s a heartwarming sight if you only look at it this way…

“Just ask with all your might. I’m having a hard time controlling my defenses right now.”

For reference, Korea strictly prohibits blood trading under Article 3 of the Blood Management Act.

But since we are aliens here, we don’t know much about such laws.

“Oh, thank you!”

Again, blood selling is illegal in this country. Violators are subject to imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 50 million won.

But there was no one here to point that out.
