The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood Chapter 239

Episode 239. The gluttony incident (3)

Snap!

Esther grabbed Jeong Ha-seong’s arm and stopped him with force.

And then he opened his mouth and quickly explained.

“First of all, I heard this in a hurry when I came here, but the Constitutional Court has put in a request to Imabari, Japan. A request for an S-class dispatch.”

“okay.”

“Honestly, I’m not sure if they’ll actually come, but at least they said something first.”

The purple-haired sorcerer recalled the old promises the Japanese had made over the air.

In the event of an S-class gate occurring in Korea, the Japanese Imabari Guild has made a promise to send all of the highest-class Awakened individuals without compensation.

“In addition, I heard that negotiations have begun with Singapore regarding support for Awakened individuals such as healers and buffers.”

“yes.”

“Nothing good will come of it if we rush things… … .”

“Hunter Seo!”

“Ah! They’ve finally arrived.”

That was the moment.

The owner of the long hair ran quickly towards the gate where they were.

An awakened civil servant with B-grade magic power.

“Mr. Seonwooyeon! It’s here. It’s here!”

The searcher joins.

“Okay. Now that everyone is here, let’s get things sorted out.”

“… .”

“Mr. Ha-seong, our goal is not to clear the quest, but to spy.”

“yes.”

“The priority is to understand the number of monsters and the structure of the dungeon, and if possible, hunt A-class monsters as they appear to block the break.”

“All right.”

“And the tracking is based on Neo’s 3 teams.”

Jeong Ha-seong raised his eyebrows at the sorcerer’s one sentence, then closed his eyes wrinkled as if giving up on something.

“Because we have to find the survivors first, who have a low chance of survival without help. It’s inevitable.”

“I understand.”

Clank.

The chilling sound of a blade being struck can be heard.

“Then let’s hurry up and rescue.”

The S-class hunters of Korea continued to touch on several issues related to the rescue plan.

This dungeon was very narrow, unlike the Kagoshima raid.

In reality, there was no way to block the influence of the S-classes, so it was difficult to drag people in… … .

“You don’t have to worry about secondary damage.”

At this time.

The young hero holding the Sunset Sword spoke.

He openly revealed his achievements so far, saying that he no longer indiscriminately harms his colleagues thanks to his training, and that he is now capable of collaborating with S-class players.

“I don’t know if a melee will break out. Now, there’s no need to get burned just by using a skill.”

“oh.”

“Besides, Esther Hunter is not the type to fight up close with enemies. … Yes. It is definitely possible.”

Jeong Ha-seong displayed an unwavering attitude that made his past self-deprecation seem colorless.

“Please trust me and remove the fire resistance items.”

The idea is to increase hunting speed by filling up equipment that increases your attribute attack power as much as possible, rather than having anything to do with defense.

At this, Esther lets out a strange smile.

“You are also very generous.”

But the hero’s request did not end there.

“Esther Hunter. And there is no need for you to take into consideration the secondary damage issue either.”

“What did you say?”

“If the situation is not favorable, would you please use your awakening ability to the fullest and subdue the enemy as quickly as possible?”

Jeong Ha-seong’s expression slowly takes on a familiar appearance.

A class A awakened team is lost.

An S-class gate occurs due to an abnormal mutation.

…and its collapse, with some blond man holding on with his life.

In the face of a dangerous disaster, the Korean pyromancer quickly regains his form.

A machine that maintains a cold composure, like something made of metal by fastening iron to iron.

The hunter with the most gate clears, who is worthy of the nickname of a dungeon-running machine.

“I have trained hard and my stamina has greatly increased. No matter what curse you use, I will definitely be able to withstand it at least once, so please proceed accordingly.”

The attitude of the hero standing in front of the gate was beyond ordinary composure and bordered on madness.

Esther, seeing this, nodded, understanding some of the anxiety and perfectionism that the other person had inside.

Besides, I want to save a person’s life even if it means cutting off my own flesh.

It’s the same here too.

“Okay, I understand. I won’t regret it later and I won’t be scolded.”

Finally, they completed their preparations by checking the status of the recovery potion.

The rescue team consisting of Jeong Ha-seong, Seo Esther, and assistant Seon Woo-yeon soon entered a passageway from another world where a strange wind noise was coming from.

***

The dungeon we entered.

Korea’s first S-class gate, later to be called [Six-foot Corridor].

This place was originally a different world where a class A dungeon called [Hoecheon Labyrinth] was located, but the interior had already been changed due to an accident called mutation.

‘The length is sharp. It’s completely different from the circular labyrinth that rotates like a rotating plate.’

But since the structure was simple, it wasn’t that unfamiliar.

-Ugh.

Soon, Seonwooyeon’s skill is activated. [Searcher].

The black-haired official concentrated all his mind and recalled the characteristics of the person he was looking for.

His kind gaze is often difficult to encounter because of his intense style, but if you watch him patiently, you will definitely notice it.

The corners of the mouth frequently smile.

Piercings, shields of the same color, and everything else like voice and height.

“… … !”

Seonwooyeon raises his head and points to somewhere in the dungeon.

Immediately afterwards, a scream-like cry came out from the mouth of the association staff.

“A discovery! Hunter Ahn Yoon-seung is alive. He is about 600 meters away from here and is still moving.”

Searcher’s activation successful!

Esther secretly cheered at the good news.

You can’t get full on the first drink, but at least the person they’re trying to save isn’t dead.

“Besides, if the defense hunter is alive, the entire team will likely be safe. Hunter Ahn Yoon-seung is a man who is faithful to his duty!”

That was the extent of the conversation.

The Awakened Rescue Team entered the dungeon and began their work without hesitation.

It seems that the S-class’s words about opening the way were not a lie.

Certainly, the dungeon had surprisingly few obstacles.

‘Even the rare monsters that are found are at best A-class… … .’

That was when.

Among them, Jeong Ha-seong, who has the best hearing, suddenly stops walking.

A posture that shows the back of a clenched fist without saying anything.

stop.

Point somewhere with your index finger, then spread both fingers out in a V shape and bend them just once.

-‘There’s a demon over there.’

Industry hand signals that convey warning meaning.

‘Considering that Hunter Jeong Ha-seong even bothered to tell us in advance, it seems like it was an S-class that showed up… … .’

Slowly and steadily.

Seon Woo-yeon, who figured out their intentions, held his breath and distanced himself from the people in front of him.

But in just a few seconds, a feeling of fear that made every muscle in his body stand on end was transmitted to the black-haired weakling.

-Purrrrrrr… … .

I hear something crying.

This is a S-class normal monster that appeared in this abnormal mutation gate. Unlike the dragons that appeared in the Japanese archipelago, it was a 120cm long reptile with a very sleek silhouette.

In reality, it was an entity with much weaker power than the black dragon.

Sloppy.

A creature stuck upside down on the wall of the dungeon took out its purple tongue and poked at my eyeballs.

It was like cleaning the glass to see better ahead.

‘It has six legs.’

A situation where a beast was discovered that is very similar to the large armored lizard of Earth, except that it has slightly more limbs.

The pyromancer and the sorcerer look at each other and exchange glances.

According to the agreement made before entering this dungeon, combat with S-class monsters was to be avoided as much as possible.

But this time, there was nothing I could do.

In some scammers’ cases, the lizard was lucky enough to wander through another path and pass through safely.

As you can see, that S-class monster has changed its mind and is now positioned in the straight path before their eyes. So.

-Nod.

Jeong Ha-seong immediately launched a surprise attack at Esther’s nod.

A spear of fire that appears in the air.

Blue light spears, with their magical power concentrated in one line to prevent the heat from escaping in vain, pour down like heavy rain towards the lizard.

The S-class monster seemed to have keen senses, as it immediately recognized the enemy when Ha-seong used his magic power, but it was unable to avoid all of these fire spears.

“Kaaaak!”

Jeong Ha-seong was able to damage the monster’s right legs as he had aimed.

In addition, Esther continued to pour out spells as soon as the pyromancer took away the enemy’s mobility.

Sizzling.

With that painful sound of boiling inflammation.

The two hunters began to hunt the beast they encountered together.

And while they were using their awakening abilities to continue their first fight against the S-class.

-Click.

Somewhere deep in the dungeon, the sound of a lever going down is heard.

.

.

.

Okay! Okay!

As expected, I’m a genius that only comes once in a thousand years!

The small animal’s hands wrap both arms around the thick lever in front of it and lower its weight.

-Click!

Starting with this noise, one of the ominous traps set up in the dungeon lost its shape and collapsed.

This side was currently using the corpse of a Class A monster that had been defeated directly to complete the objective.

‘Kuk kuk.’

To be exact, the consciousness of the main body (Kim Ki-ryeo) that had become incapacitated was turned off.

A state where a new corpse is being mentally controlled as a makeshift golem.

The amphibian corpse we got this time had many limbs that were awkward, but there were still many things we could do with it.

As you can see, you can manipulate the structures in the dungeon to disarm traps.

Now all that’s left to do is use this dead body to do one last thing.

‘There it is.’

As I turned my gaze lower, I finally discovered the monster in question.

A medium-to-large sized reptile with a sand-colored body.

That was the S-class boss monster of this dungeon.

At the same time, it was also the biggest threat to Ahn Yoon-seung’s team in the area.

I know this because I’ve been observing it steadily since the moment I entered the dungeon, that monster smelled the human scent left behind by Yoon Seung’s team and kept chasing them.

‘This body has rather short limbs, but I like the fact that there are many of them.’

Slowly.

I found my target and moved my amphibian legs diligently to capture it.

‘By the way, I just remembered this, but don’t Earthlings have too few arms? It would have been perfect if we had about four. Then we could open a paper book with both hands while brushing our teeth… … Well, anyway.’

And after coming within an appropriate distance, he began his planned actions.

‘Hey! You idiot!’

Jump!

I jumped up with all my might and slammed my body into the side of the S-class monster.

‘Come on!’

An action that in Earth language is roughly called aggro.

As I said before, this is the latter half of the dungeon. In other words, this is the space where Ahn Yoon-seung’s team, who were stranded, are wandering.

However, my main body is currently trapped and unable to move, so my only option is to do something like this to buy time until the real S-classes arrive.

“Purpur.”

After being slammed twice, the S-class monster in question finally lifts its massive butt.

Whirl!

The dungeon boss, who had changed his position, used his long tongue to gently push my body away as if telling me to stop.

I continued my irritating behavior without paying any attention.

Then, after a few seconds, the other person finally starts to show the reaction I was aiming for. He raises his body completely and runs towards me.

“Kaaaak!”

Right.

As soon as I caught the monster’s attention, I quickly moved my short legs and ran to the right side of the hallway.

If this had been a normal fight in the natural world, this body would have been captured by that S-class monster long ago.

Now, this corpse is occupied by an alien archmage with exceptionally strong control abilities.

-thud!

With my unique ability to sense magic, I quickly predicted where the attack would come from and rolled my body.

And as this side continued to evade with agility, the distance between the S-class monster and Ahn Yoon-seung’s team rapidly widened.

The provocation operation was successful.

I rolled the legs of the corpse I had taken and ran in a zigzag pattern.

Then, the dungeon boss snorted behind him, as if he was angry at the instigator who couldn’t be caught.

Now all you have to do is shift your center of gravity and nimbly turn the corner in front of you.

Okay.

It was then that a noise that should not have been heard suddenly struck my mind.

-Ahhhhhhh!

This is not what I heard directly at the moment.

Because I had very little magical power, I was able to cast a low-quality golem control spell, and thus was barely able to utilize the various senses of a six-legged amphibian.

then.

‘What’s wrong?’

The human scream that I am hearing in my head right now.

Doesn’t that mean that the information is given from the main body where the physical sensation remains vague?

***

About 11 minutes after the rescue team consisting of Esther, Jeong Ha-seong, and Seon Woo-yeon entered the building.

Thump, thump, thump.

They were able to proceed without interruption thanks to the fact that a great appraiser had disarmed all the traps in advance.

But we soon reached the center of the dungeon.

There, the rescue team witnesses an unbelievable sight.

At the end of a long hallway with bruises all over it, as if evidence of a fierce battle, an Awakened being with a familiar appearance was discovered.

A portrait of a hunter leaning against a wall, his head bowed, and silent.

By the time he caught a glimpse of his crushed muscles and blood-soaked bones through the holes in his damaged suit.

Seonwooyeon let out a loud scream without realizing it.

“Ahhhhhhh!”

It was the moment when Kim Ki-ryeo’s body and the real S-class safely met.
