The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood Chapter 208

Episode 208. Beast (6)

March 2nd, 6 years ago.

This day marks the day that Beast and Brooklyn Morgan’s husband were killed in an attack.

They had always been very stingy with counting the days or celebrating anniversaries, but strangely enough, March 2nd was the only day that was vivid in their memory.

“Hmm… … .”

Brooklyn actually had two very different personalities, as if he was putting on and taking off masks, since his teenage years.

Because of this, she was unable to blend in with the crowds of society and spent long periods of time alone deep in the mountains.

But one day, a stranger appears by chance and confesses his love to her.

Low social skills resulting from an abnormal childhood.

Unlike the kind and humorous first personality, the impulsive self is ready to start a shooting spree whenever they have knowledge of weapons.

How could the stranger love the beast even in its ugly aspects?

Two women who were living quietly in a cabin soon found themselves falling for the same man.

The man understood and embraced Beast’s identity, and that’s why the three of them were able to have a peaceful married life.

No. In fact, it’s not enough to simply say that it was peaceful and end it there. If that life had continued just a little longer, Brooklyn’s inner self would have gradually become more stable, and the problem child in his head would have gradually disappeared naturally.

“March 2nd.”

Eventually, that day came.

A stranger dies.

The voice in my head became clearer.

It’s the anniversary of the superpower that cannot revive the corpse in front of me.

***

Beep be …

Let me explain a dream that someone often has.

One day, the police contacted Brooklyn Morgan on his old cell phone.

The message was that your husband had died in a random murder case, and that you should come to the hospital and identify the victim.

And soon after, Morgan came across a cold body – like a cadaver, as is often the case on CSI dramas.

The body, stiff with eyes wide open, was definitely that of the stranger who had been living with him.

But the appearance of the spouse she loved so much had faded.

“this.”

I liked it when this guy smiled. Does that mean I’ll never see him like that again?

She was very sorry about this situation, but strangely enough, she did not react further.

Unlike other victims who were contacted, he was indifferent and did not cry loudly or shed tears.

In this way, Brooklyn often appears heterogeneous in emotional expression.

That doesn’t mean she wasn’t shocked by the situation.

It’s just that it’s not expressed well. Because Brooklyn suffered such great psychological damage from her husband’s death that her entire ego was completely distorted.

But is there such a thing as a god in this world? Soon after, Brooklyn, who had lost much, was given the gift of an S-class awakening point.

Unfortunately, she was not impressed by the sudden superpower.

She had no intention of becoming a superhero or anything. In the end, she held a small funeral for her husband, and when she found out that the boy who committed the indiscriminate murders was sentenced to life imprisonment, she returned to her previous life.

I live in a cabin deep in the forest, tending to my garden.

A simple life of occasionally cutting open wild animals caught in traps and eating them.

Moreover, strangely enough, her violent self, which had been a problem, never showed up after her husband died.

Brooklyn had never actually spoken to the girl in her head, but she could instinctively sense that this was hypersomnia caused by sadness.

What a stupid response.

It’s not like your dead spouse will come back just because you’re sad. What’s the point of wasting those emotions?

-puck!

Brooklyn brought his axe down on the dry logs.

Life in the mountains was repetitive and boring, but it wasn’t leisurely.

Every day is busy just preparing firewood to cook rice.

America’s new S-class Awakened went about his old-fashioned daily life without revealing his identity to anyone, and without even watching a single common TV show.

“hmm.”

About four months had passed since then.

Her peace, which she thought would last, was once again shaken.

One day, a new incident occurred in which all the rabbit traps laid around the house were destroyed by someone.

But what kind of kid would do something like that?

In the past, I had heard my husband’s advice that if I laid traps like this, I could get sued, so I put up signs all over the place clearly stating that the land was private property and that traps were set up…

It was that kind of moment.

As Brooklyn inspects the broken trap, something is thrown behind him.

A unique capture item in the shape of a bright red net.

It was a raid by someone.

In fact, Brooklyn had been caught living alone in a cabin without his knowledge, and because of this, he became involved in some kind of crime.

“Got it… … !”

As the woman gets caught in the net, the assailant appears from behind and quickly raises his weapon.

But what followed was something the villain could not have imagined.

Immediately afterwards, Brooklyn tore through the net that had bound him and cut off his opponent’s wrist with a wood hatchet.

“Kuuuuuuuuuuuu!”

-You shouldn’t kill people, honey.

-You will never be able to return to this cabin again.

Brooklyn remembers what her late husband said, so she easily subdues the assailant who attacked her without causing her any more pain.

But who would have thought that the criminal he caught was a serial killer who had already committed the ‘act that should not be done’ several times.

“Ahhh… … . Eeeeek.”

“Thank you very much for your cooperation in the investigation, sir.”

The mysterious Awakened who attacked her was none other than the owner of [Improvement], a shameless new-age figure who had repeatedly committed such acts in order to steal the abilities of the strong.

Brooklyn had a history of catching a serial killer in Texas a few years ago.

To be more precise, this happened because the concept of S-class Awakeners had not yet been established at the time.

The criminal, a B-class Awakened, thought Brooklyn was at best a slightly strong A-class, so he attempted the crime without knowing it, but as you can see, the opponent just hasn’t used that power yet.

He was a monster who, if he wanted to, would turn the entire state of Texas into a wasteland.

“Are you okay? You must have been quite surprised, by the way.”

“well.”

“If you were able to subdue that murderer, you must have some serious supernatural powers. Could I ask for your name for a moment… ?”

Brooklyn stood up as a victim of the incident and exchanged a few words with the officer.

The Texas killer shouted from the side.

“Please save me! I just wanted to see what abilities you have. I didn’t mean to kill you this time! No way, I just wanted to ask you. I just wanted to ask you what you realized from the shock!”

You meticulously planned a crime, even preparing the items, and now you’re belatedly mumbling and making excuses.

“I wanted to have good skills. I just wanted to have good skills… … .”

Brooklyn stares into the killer’s eyes.

Bam!

And immediately after this, an unexpected burst of sound echoed through the air of the blue mountains.

“Shit!”

“what.”

“This is crazy… … !”

The officers gathered at the cabin could not understand the situation.

Brooklyn also takes a long time to process what is happening before his eyes.

The Texas serial killer, who had been tied up with a special rope, was found lying lifeless on the floor.

As if you had unknowingly swatted away a bug that was stuck to your body.

Brooklyn struck the criminal’s head with a quick clap, and that’s how this disaster happened.

“oh.”

But the question is, why did she suddenly act so violently?

At this point, Brooklyn finally became aware of the hatred that had taken hold within him.

What has happened now is not the work of a sleeping second self.

Brooklyn Morgan, who had some social skills, killed the murderer.

“oh my god.”

Before she knew it, she had come to hate the superpowers she had been born with.

So he felt bad for the villain who showed his desire for magic, and unable to bear the discomfort, he ended up blowing the sorcerer’s head off.

What followed was nothing but a continuation of chaos.

This guy was discovered to be the owner of incredible magical powers after killing the Texas Awakener.

A high-ranking figure in American politics, the future Spectrum Guild leader, soon offers to cover up his murder in exchange for becoming his dog.

In response, Brooklyn expresses his intention to accept.

Perhaps because she had spent a long time with her companion, she was quite socialized.

“all right.”

Of course, if the content of the oath in the article the other party handed over was completely unfair, there would have been another world-class news story that day.

Fortunately, the given requirements were something that even a new S-class hunter could easily accept.

【Do not harm unawakened people without permission.】

Of course, the higher-ups demanded wages that were too low for an S-class employee, and various other annoying orders, but what can you do?

In any case, it is less annoying than being an enemy of a great power.

In this way, the American power holder succeeds in obtaining a S-class healer into his hands.

Moreover, the subsequent process was smoother than expected.

Among the two imperfect identities, now that the violent personality is asleep, she can live a gentle social life.

‘I won’t be bored anymore.’

As the Spectrum Guild’s dog, Brooklyn Morgan took on the jobs that everyone else dreaded.

This was her secret to getting to the top.

Instead of volunteering to serve the country like Jeong Ha-seong, he took on multiple gate raids in exchange for avoiding prison time for murder.

In addition, Brooklyn had to offer up all the items that a normal hunter would drool over, such as [Dragon’s Heart], to his superior according to his oath.

But still, everything was okay.

Ironically, as an S-class hunter, she was favored by all the manas in the world, but she hated anything magical more than anything else.

“hmm.”

She adapted to her new job by putting on the social mask of ‘bright and capable Brooklyn Morgan’ as if she were playing a role.

Since she rarely did anything impulsive, her personality problems seemed to have gradually been forgotten by her superiors.

But then one day.

Around the time my husband’s death anniversary came around again.

As she was checking the calendar, she suddenly heard a low voice near her ear.

-Brooklyn.

It was the voice of that which had been asleep for a long time.

A woman in my head who loved the same man as someone else.

“aha.”

It turned out that his speaking skills had improved a lot in the time I hadn’t seen him before.

In the past, they would just cry out like a newborn baby, but now, aren’t they expressing their desires in a polite and social way?

-I want to go back.

This meant that she wanted to go back to that blank slate when she had no superpowers or a husband.

Brooklyn, who seemed to have adapted well to the company, actually hated this jungle of buildings on the inside. He often thought about the past when he could freely chase rabbits without listening to anyone.

Yeah. Hunting.

It would be great if we could hunt as we pleased.

But now I could no longer run around thoughtlessly like I used to.

Many years have passed, so from now on, her violent acts will no longer be treated as the mere deviation of a girl with a confused identity. If she wields the dangerous power of an S-rank without caution, she will truly become a death row inmate.

“ah.”

But at that moment, a breaking news report came on from the TV that I had inadvertently turned on.

[Breaking news: A dangerous monster has escaped from the gate, causing panic… … .]

It was a news story explaining the [Nuckelabi] situation in Hawaii.

The Spectrum’s administrator held back on sending out slaves for fear of losing his property.

If you think about it, she had a way of running wild without the eyes of her superiors.

It’s not the awakening ability of ‘Brooklyn Morgan’ that is revealed to the public…

-Set me free.

With the power of this thing with such a great voice, it would be possible to pretend to be another Awakened being.

From then on, it was truly a series of impulsive acts.

Brooklyn Morgan simply put a new mask over his head, hoping to experiment with violence as he pleased.

A loot from the distant past that I don’t even remember when or where I got. A common facial accessory.

And clothing made by putting together the black skins of various animals, collected little by little as a hobby through long hunting.

‘Okay.’

She participated in the expedition to subdue Nuckelavi with her face and body covered.

He was soon remembered as the hero who ended the Hawaiian crisis and was given the nickname ‘Beast’.

Up until this point, he had no intention of thoroughly hiding his dual identity.

Like comic book heroes with various motifs such as bats, spiders, and crash-landed aliens.

She just relieved her stress with the unique experience of living a double life.

“hmm?”

One day.

While Brooklyn was traveling around the world with his hidden awakening ability, he came across a new dungeon in a cave on a small island that no human had ever visited.

-Wooooooow… … .

A bright tone of light that expresses EX grade.

In a way, that is the root of all evil.

The Beast suddenly started committing murders.

Brooklyn also began to cling to anonymity.

And, in a C-class dungeon, I encountered a young hero and a conman.

In fact, if you look closely, all these disasters happened because of that one gate.
