The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood Chapter 242

Episode 242. The gluttony crisis (6)

[[Web Transmission] Hunter Kang Chang-ho, we would like to inform you about the appearance of an abnormal mutation at the S-class gate. The following is reference material related to the gate attack plan. If you can take action, please reply to the agency number.]

The S-class that appeared on the scene showed no sign of urgency.

Immediately after finishing processing the gate called the Nameless Cave.

When he turned his cell phone back on, he saw that some information had arrived from the Hunter Association.

Turning his gaze, he couldn’t see his contractor’s blink no matter how hard he searched, so Kang Chang-ho quickly realized that the blond hunter had entered the dungeon in question.

But despite that, the atmosphere was so indifferent.

“uh!”

“Get out of here immediately. Get out!”

“Hunter Jeong Ha-seong!”

“They are raiders.”

“Oh my, oh my! Thank you, God! Our Neo Guild members are safe… …!”

Well, he also secretly knew that Kim Ki-ryeo was alive.

In case of death of the contractor.

[Knight’s Oath] immediately conveys that fact to all those associated with the item.

Of course, this is assuming that the artifact has been applied normally.

Anyway, Kang Chang-ho was fully aware that the other person was not dead.

“Ah! Hunter Kim is here too!”

I waited a moment and as expected,

He confidently walks out of the exit, further confirming his survival.

“uh?”

Shake shake.

Kang Chang-ho shook my hand and gave me a truly earthly greeting.

And while South Korea’s leading hunters, including Jeong Ha-seong and Seo Esther, explain the whole story to the crowd.

He gestured to Kim Ki-ryeo and began a private conversation.

“hi.”

“Oh, yes. Hello. Kang Chang-ho Heon… … .”

“But I’m sorry, I never heard a separate report that you were going here.”

The alien answered as if it had been waiting.

“The entrance itself was a mistake. I was standing near the passageway when I was grabbed by the monster inside and dragged in.”

Aha. Involuntary gate entry?

“really?”

“Then how can I really lie about this?”

Kim Ki-ryeo asserted his innocence, citing the terms of the knight’s oath and a witness named Lee Cheong-ryong.

However, even though it was obvious that this was structurally impossible based on these evidences, Jang Jeong, who suffered from body lice, for some reason carried his luggage on his back and stared intently at the object in front of him.

I kept wondering about something.

‘Look at the size… … .’

Anyway, the physique is quite fierce.

I averted my gaze from the sight of the superman creating a shadow with his empty hands, with nothing to show for it.

Since I already knew what the other person was looking for, I started explaining myself to try to prevent the assault.

“I know. Even if it started out as an accident, you could have easily dealt with the Tentacle and escaped. But you’re doing this because an S-class hunter was caught in it?”

“… .”

“I’m sorry. To be honest, I knew this would happen, but I didn’t leave the dungeon on purpose. At that time… At that time, I really didn’t think there was time to discuss it separately.”

“… .”

“I don’t know if you know, but the guy named Ahn Yoon-seung who got lost is an acquaintance of mine. However, when I went in, there were traps in the dungeon, and I happened to have the [Emotion] skill.”

A sentence that is put out within.

“… Oh my, just hit me a few times to vent your anger. This time, you really did plan on deceiving me, so I really don’t know what to say. I’m sorry.”

How many times did I say the word ‘I was wrong’ in my past life?

I don’t remember the details, but from what I remember, he was a stingy soul when it came to apologies since he was young.

So, it was actually quite unusual for the Archmage to express his gratitude in this way.

But, even though that arrogant soul bowed down first and entered the situation.

“hmm……?”

The other person didn’t respond.

Kang Chang-ho stood still with his back to the ground, expressionless and motionless since earlier.

The silence of an S-class Awakened One. Somehow, this feels more unsettling than the fists flying at me.

“Are you very angry?”

Should I do it?

With so many eyes watching from all directions, do you think my ambitions will explode here?

Is today the day that this ex-convict will break Article 250 of the Criminal Act?

“No, but as you can see, people are fine like this… I actually went in there because I was confident that I could avoid dying, so I definitely didn’t fight an S-class demon… … .”

“… .”

“…What are you doing now?”

The alien creature did not even try to express itself in a Earth-like manner and appealed to me expressionlessly, pointing only at its magically enhanced exterior.

Look. In common parlance, I came back without a single scratch on my suit. Isn’t that a problem?

The person who said that was already in agreement with the people involved in the dungeon because it was obvious that this would happen. He made all sorts of excuses and earnestly requested everyone not to leak the truth about his slander to the outside world.

However, despite his heated struggles, there was still no response from Kang Chang-ho, and the aliens, unable to bear this unnatural silence, soon asked him what he was doing with difficulty.

The contractor replied.

“Thinking about it.”

It was just one word, but it brought a chilling fear.

Thinking about it.

I repeat, Kim Ki-ryeo has not yet recovered the magic of unfolding other people’s thoughts.

Even in that state, it was clear what kind of worries the S-class hunter carrying the luggage on his back was having.

In Kang Chang-ho’s mind, there are probably only two choices: whether to activate the skill or not.

Gi-ryong, who had inferred the flow of events, was about to say something in a hurry.

But it was only at this point that the superpowered person in front of me finally started having a proper conversation.

“Did I ask you if you were angry earlier?”

Kang Chang-ho moved his neck and looked down at the offering.

“I haven’t been truly angry at anyone since I had this awakening.”

“yes?”

“Whether it’s Jeong Ha-seong or Choi Jin or some other driver. There were times when we would argue about our opinions or positions, but now, there are rarely times when we would get so angry like when we were students.”

People say that sensitivity usually declines after puberty, so could that be the reason?

The S-class hunter’s eyes turned upward to the left for a moment as if recalling the past.

He chose his words and finally blurted out the completed sentence.

“Anyway, let me make one thing clear: I’ve never really been angry.”

The window extends its arm towards the other person’s shoulder.

And with a light movement of his right palm, he calmly brushed away the dungeon debris that had been stuck to the seam of someone’s suit.

“Not yet.”

A specific word that is pronounced clearly, as if for emphasis.

I asked the question in a rather nervous manner, feeling some pressure from the other person’s words and actions.

“Does that mean I’m going to be the first Truth Hunter to upset you?”

Surprisingly, Kang Chang-ho denied it again here.

“no.”

Knock knock.

Kang Chang-ho continued speaking after brushing away all the dust from Kim Ki-ryeo’s shoulder seam.

“What I just said was just a list of facts. To be honest, I honestly don’t know what will happen from here on out.”

“uh…….”

“At first, I was annoyed, but now I just find it fascinating to see what someone does. Oh, by the way, this is a question that just occurred to me.”

What followed was a tone of genuine doubt.

“Does Hunter Kim Ki-ryeo enjoy his own crisis?”

“yes?”

“Do you have an arrival certificate?”

In a way, it was a fundamental question.

“When I see people being surprised and confused, I feel like I’m in control of other people’s emotions and I feel a sense of joy.”

“What the heck… … .”

“Isn’t that a strange sound?”

The fourth S-class hunter in Korea. Kim Ki-ryeo.

Always with a calm expression, as if he were looking at a baby mouse across a laboratory cage.

At the age of twenty-five, usually busy just laughing and talking, he was a person who treated people with a calmness like the deep sea.

Moreover, he is a hunter who has superpowers at the top of the ecosystem, but you can’t even imagine what he does while locked up in a corner of a shabby house all year round.

“But if you look at it objectively, Hunter Kim Ki-ryeo is exactly like that.”

Kang Chang-ho pointed out the abnormality of the blond man.

As for Kim Ki-ryeo, he was, according to his evaluation, an ascetic who had little interest in the secular world and often ran off to paths that ordinary people would not choose.

Where in the world is there a swordsman who can enter an S-class gate so easily?

And that’s just to save an acquaintance.

In today’s age of material abundance and advancement, it is hard to believe that such modern people exist.

To that extent, the personality of the hunter named Kim Ki-ryeo was unprecedented.

People with pure perspectives like Yoon Seung tend to interpret his appearance as that of a self-sacrificing iron man and show him respect.

Most ordinary evil people, including Kang Chang-ho, doubt that such an upright saint could possibly exist in this world.

What on earth motivates that cold person?

“hmm.”

A blonde awakener with a face like an iron mask.

Kang Chang-ho opened his mouth after looking at his colleague in front of him for a while. He moved the hand that was resting on his chin and tapped the shoulder of the other person’s suit again.

“Anyway, since the neck is attached, that’s okay for now.”

“yes?”

“I’ve been so busy lately with something that I can’t really focus on the contract. So if you still have some consideration for Hunter Kim, I think it would be great if you could refrain from going out for a while.”

The third S-class Korean who said that turned around and left without any hesitation.

The sound of an Italian engine is soon heard, and the annoying vibration typical of motorcycles.

As Kang Chang-ho’s magic power disappeared, the atmosphere near the dungeon’s exit became much lighter.

A long time later.

The fake S-class, who had heard all sorts of warnings from the contractor, stood alone and thought.

‘Even after causing this mess, they’re still sparing me?’

What do you think?

To be honest, it wouldn’t have been strange at all if Kang Chang-ho, who was so angry just now, had opened the human skill stone on the spot.

But that Awakened man with two assault convictions. He knew full well that the object of the knight’s oath was taking advantage of the coincidence caused by the tentacles, but he just turned a blind eye to it all?

‘Oh, if it’s like this… … .’

Kim Ki-ryeo quickly changed his attitude as if his previous bowing was a lie.

He rolled his eyes and began to reflect on something.

But, as I was moving my gaze like this, I happened to acquire new information.

“… So, this dungeon… … As a result… … we’re going to close it immediately…”

Click click click.

Meanwhile, the reporters who had arrived were busy taking pictures, flashing the white light from their strobes.

The hero’s image caught in the finder changes for a moment.

Jeong Ha-seong looked in the direction of his teacher and then focused on the camera again.

“This concludes my report.”

It’s not like S-class ones shoot out radiation or anything from their eyes. Normally, making eye contact with them wouldn’t be a big deal.

‘Just by drawing unnecessary attention, making people doubt good or evil, and continuing the contract with Kang Chang-ho, the damage that follows is too much.’

There is a reason why the saying goes, “the darker the better.”

If you think about it carefully, you’ve filled up your strength to some extent with the Hydra and the Sacred Tree Branch.

He has also accumulated enough wealth through extracurricular activities. Now, he is no longer as fond of the sweet taste of being a S-class bodyguard as he used to be.

If I were to list just a few reasons, I could probably come up with more.

The temple that was the root of all these relationships has long since collapsed.

Besides, it’s now difficult to change bodies and just throw away your identity… … .

‘Yeah. Looking at that human behavior, I think it would be better if it were like that.’

A little later.

Ahn Yoon-seung, who had finished testifying to the guild, came running towards us.

“Hey, Seung-ah Yoon~ Come slowly. Come slowly. Even if you come quickly, you’ll have to pay the cancellation fee for the beef restaurant reservation.”

Kim Ki-ryeo waved his hand widely to the Earthling and thought to himself.

I feel like it’s time to address this unnecessary lifespan limitation in a swift manner.
