I Will Save the World and Retire Chapter 176

Thinker (2)

“approximately… I beg your pardon?”

“I’m weak.”

In a voice I had never heard before, Han Tae-kyung uttered words that I thought would never come out of Han Tae-kyung’s mouth.

There is only one thought that comes to mind.

… Why are you saying this to me? Hong Seok-young is there too. Did you really think that just because you called me senior, I would guide you? Hong Seok-young is there!

The reason I swallowed the words that were rising to the top of my throat was because Han Tae-kyung looked very serious. Even if the person in front of you is Tae-kyung Han, the face that asks if he is weak looks serious in its own way. Although sunglasses covered most of his face. Even so, I can’t leave people in this state alone. A struggling hunter is like a time bomb. He doesn’t know where or how he will explode.

No matter how good of a hunter you are, as long as you are human, you are bound to hit a wall.

Of course, there was no such time for me. I didn’t want to become a hunter from the beginning, so I didn’t have to worry about my skills. So, when Yoo Ji-eun shared her experience and offered to give advice that wasn’t even meant to be given, she laughed hard. Yoo Ji-eun’s face became red, blood rose in her neck, and she screamed loudly.

‘hey!! Listen carefully now! ‘You never know when you might use it!’

Yes.

You never know how a person’s life will go… .

Yoo Ji-eun’s advice was often used later to ridicule the management office hunters. The effect was good. In front of it, I added, ‘This is what Hunter Yoo Ji-eun told me,’ and the hunters nodded with impressed faces, thinking that whatever nonsense I was talking about was plausible.

Except for the occasional hunter who wandered around the corridors of the management office, Yoo Ji-eun mostly did the work of breaking the heads of hunters who hit the wall. Why, you said Yoo Ji-eun was in charge of training new hunters.

Yoo Ji-eun worked hard to break the newbies’ heads. Actually, I woke up in a lot of places other than my head.

Then there was something he always said.

‘You think you’re weak? I enjoyed it. ‘You’re so f*cking weak.’

Yoo Ji-eun was the type of person who had to build a building on top of broken ruins.

A hunter who realizes his shortcomings and falls into agony?

They used to tear it down and grow it according to their own taste. That’s much faster.

Yu Ji-eun was like that.

‘Hey, Woo Hee-jae. Just remember one thing.’

‘what.’

‘A person without confidence survives rather than an arrogant person.’

I hate to admit it, but Yoo Ji-eun was right.

I don’t know much about Han Tae-kyung during this period. When I first met Tae-kyung Han, he already had an expression on his face that said he liked things like walls.

A confident smile that leaves no doubt about his abilities. He is confident that his father will not be able to kick him out even if he commits a strange act.

Although it is said that compared to my father, I am not good enough… . That also changed when Han Tae-kyung was about 40 years old. At that age, Tae-kyung Han learned how to fight, much like his father. If he were to fight for his life, of course his father would win, but at least in sparring with a sense of play. So, even after the accident, your father would have kept it at the management office.

It is impossible to fight as you please at the time without properly choosing your main weapon in the first place, even with a decent level of skill.

“why… .”

Maybe it was because I saw Han Tae-kyung always smiling. Seeing him so depressed gave me goosebumps.

I cleared my throat with a cough and then asked.

“Why do you think so?”

“No, that’s it.”

Tae-kyung Han turned off the faucet. The water leaking from the hose stopped quickly.

Tae-kyung Han organized the car wash supplies for no reason. I felt like I wanted to turn around and go, but I held back because of the affection I had seen so far.

… Wouldn’t that affection have been fulfilled by not killing him yet?

“… “I couldn’t do it.”

“What did you not do?”

“… … .”

Han Tae-kyung muttered his mouth and then stuck it out.

No, really… .

I got goosebumps.

So much so that one wonders if someone is imitating Tae-kyung Han.

… Chaemin Kim’s magic is working properly, right?

“I couldn’t do anything.”

If you want to give me advice on something, I want you to say it straight away.

No matter how talented I am, I don’t have the talent to read people’s minds.

Moreover, with Han Tae-kyung… In fact, we’re not even close friends? The kids from the pilot high school were taking turns crying in front of me, but they said it was still easy to figure out what the problem was.

No, but do I have to take care of Han Tae-kyung now? My first plan was to beat up Han Tae-kyung and turn him into a person who could speak like a normal person.

I quickly looked at Han Tae-kyung’s face. Her eyes were obscured by black sunglasses, but at least she didn’t look like she was crying.

“Even with the help of the Archmage’s magic, we couldn’t properly stop an intruder.”

“ah.”

“I’m really so useless, aren’t I? Hong Seon, no, the principal said he brought me in because of my skills, but in reality, I… .”

“What was Teacher Han’s current grade?”

“yes? “It’s A.”

Usually when hunters can afford higher tolls. In other words, when I enter a dungeon that is a level higher than the one I normally enter, I often feel a wall.

Even if you say this, when A-class hunters are able to enter S-class dungeons, many people fall apart.

The more toll you pay, the stronger the guy in the dungeon becomes. The reason the dungeon has a rating of S is simply because no dungeon has been found that requires a higher toll. What’s in it is… This means that it is slightly stronger than the monsters in A-class dungeons.

There might be someone who can use the cute word ‘slightly’. However, there may be incredibly strong monsters, and there may also be dungeons where the identity of the monster is unknown because all the hunters who entered it are dead.

Hunters who thought they were the best in the world by going through A-level dungeons with ease would easily fall to those who were outside the standard. Tae-kyung Han may also have had such an experience without my knowledge.

“He still looked like a young guy, but I was helplessly bullied by such a strange guy?”

Not a crazy wizard belonging to a cult whose origins are unknown.

“So, while I was at home this time, I did some thinking.”

“… “Thoughts.”

“I think I might actually be really weak.”

Why is the conclusion… .

“No, of course I know that there are many kids who are weaker than me. But, that. I wonder if this person named Han Tae-kyung is much weaker than I thought… .”

“Because you were attacked by an intruder?”

“I am still someone who has been recognized by the principal. “It doesn’t make sense to be attacked by a chicken with feathers on its arms.”

“… … .”

little… I felt like I knew what Tae-kyung Han was thinking.

If I were to be honest, I wasn’t a good match for Semblum. Han Tae-kyung would have done well if he had gone into the dungeon.

I hate to praise him, but Han Tae-kyung is a hunter who is strong at improvising. Han Tae-kyung’s first team was focused on conquering dungeons, but their abilities were more focused on exploration. As the team leader had the ability to deal with any situation, he was good at entering newly opened gates and gathering information.

As I was assisting the management office in conquering dungeons, I am fully aware of Han Tae-kyung’s fighting style and weaknesses. Tae-kyung Han shows his true value the further apart he is in weight class and the wider the space he can utilize. Although it can be said that there is no difference in weight class, Han Tae-kyung’s movements are restricted in the narrow building.

In such a state, Sembloom, who avoids Kim Chae-min’s magic by hitting and running and continues to attack, is no different from Han Tae-kyung’s natural enemy. Moreover, at the time, Tae-kyung Han had a pile of luggage called Woo I-rok.

… ah.

“excuse me. “Teacher Han.”

“so… yes?”

“At that time, I couldn’t say hello because I was in a hurry, and later, when a teacher went to lead the kids, I couldn’t say anything.”

Although it hurt my pride to say this to Han Tae-kyung, this is not some crazy person who writes down accounts on random days. She said she was weak, so why did she talk… When it comes to her juniors at work, she can be a little kinder.

hmm. Should I just think of myself as Yoo Ji-eun? Still, Yoo Ji-eun did a good job nurturing the new recruits. Every year on Yoo Ji-eun’s birthday, there were a bunch of hunters who came with big flower baskets, including carnations and other things.

Yoo Ji-eun. It’s Yoo Ji-eun… .

‘What’s in your head!’ Is it decoration? It’s a decoration! Then I will trim it nicely. Just wash your neck and wait.’

… … .

A kinder version of Yu Ji-eun.

‘This year’s new recruits are truly amazing. I can’t believe it. How did only these pretty people come in? He carries something really pretty on his shoulder. ‘It’s really pretty when it’s empty.’

… Well, I’ll think about it later. Let’s start with this. My father didn’t know anything else, but he taught me to always say thank you.

“Thank you for your help Lee Rok.”

“… yes?”

“A teacher says he’s weak, but if he were really weak, he wouldn’t have been able to save my brother. I heard about this from Rok Lee. “I heard that a teacher jumped in and saved him.”

Tae-kyung Han wasn’t going to lie, he jumped a good meter.

“uh. ah. that.”

Hunter, who was holding the child and blocking the attack with his body to save the child, kept his mouth shut and then blurted out.

“… “It’s the first time I’ve heard someone say thank you.”

“Is that so?”

“Well, they say you can listen to it when you clear up the dungeon break, but I like going into the dungeon better… .”

Somehow, Tae-kyung Han opened his mouth in a calmer tone.

… aha?

I don’t know why, but I think I found a way to deal with Han Tae-kyung.

Park Seo-hyun somehow overlapped the face of Han Tae-kyung, who was speaking stuttering. The only resemblance is that they have two arms and two legs and black hair, but they respond to compliments.

Even adults who are old enough need praise sometimes.

Do you think it would be okay to do it like you did for Park Seo-hyun? It was easy to praise her as she also had a bright future. Taekyung Han… Similar, right? If you just give compliments, it may seem like you’re going to feel arrogant.

“hmm.”

I saw Tae-kyung Han rubbing the back of his neck.

“Do you think you are too weak?”

“You, not too much, just a little… ?”

“Is there anything wrong with the hunter’s skills? If you are weak you will die, if you are strong you will survive. “I only have those two.”

“… … .”

He thinks he is weak, but even if people around him say it all the time, it won’t touch his heart. The egg only has meaning when it cracks and comes out on its own.

Although it is still class A, it is usable enough. Park Seo-hyun didn’t have the skills to do that, so I praised her half of the time, and Kim Chae-min raised the other half.

For Han Tae-kyung… I think we could use a more extreme method.

There is one thing that is just right.

“Mr. Han. “Would you like to conquer a dungeon with me?”

“Dungeon?”

How many dungeons have I entered in place of Han Tae-kyung? Now it is time for Han Tae-kyung to attack instead of me.
