Episode 272. The sequel to Destruction
‘Is it because it’s only been a year since I was reincarnated? I still often feel a sense of alienation when dealing with Earthlings.’
Alien life is difficult to understand.
But that’s why I became even more interested.
In this way, I stared blankly at the other person, expressing my interest in them without reserve.
And the black-furred mammal, hearing the Alpha Urinian’s real name for the first time, narrowed its pupils as if it had realized something due to these observing eyes.
“……!”
The reason why the eyes of an S-class hunter often lingered on me was because from the beginning, it was only observation.
Now, it’s impossible for him not to know.
***
Mmmmmmmmm… … .
About 25 minutes ago from now.
It’s summer.
For some reason, Seonwooyeon decides to go out for the first time in a long while and puts on her favorite pair of American-made denim pants.
Today was a day to go see other people’s faces.
It was unusual for her, who values manners, but this time she broke the rule for once out of concern for the person in question.
That means that at the beginning of this incident, someone had infinitely good intentions.
“hmm…….”
Soon, Seon Woo-yeon, dressed in plain clothes, left the house.
The sun was warm and the green leaves on the roadside welcomed me. The weather was so nice that for a moment I felt like everything would be okay.
But the reality that soon came to her was quite different from what she had expected.
And it was even shocking.
“I’m actually an alien!”
Aliens really exist.
And now, the hunter in front of me is that alien.
Seon Woo-yeon thought.
Isn’t this just a B-grade topic with nothing special to offer and getting caught up in a whale fight and getting punished?
If it were normal, I would have dismissed the talk about aliens and such as that as a joke without any reason to think about it.
But now, in the middle of the stage, Justitia is proving the credibility of the conversation.
My mind instantly became complicated because of that physical proof.
Aliens. Binary star systems. And magic.
No matter how many times I think about it, it’s a concept that just doesn’t dissolve, like oil floating on water.
“Hello, my name is Lemming.”
Are you really saying that what’s inside that neat-looking guy’s skin is an alien creature?
And what’s more, such an unfamiliar being was cleverly hiding among none other than the hunters of South Korea?
“We’ve already completely explained our identity to each other. So we’re friends now, right?”
Justitia’s results.
And the blonde hunter who always made perfect decisions, as if he were the embodiment of the word rational.
The man had several factors that made him listen to his claims, but Seon Woo-yeon considered his own ‘experience’ as the top priority.
Then this answer came out.
‘alien…….’
The thought crossed my mind that what the blonde was saying might not be a lie.
‘Huh?’
It was only in this situation that Seon Woo-yeon was able to interpret a mysterious scene that he had kept buried in his heart.
A blond man who snatched ice cream from a child who looked to be in first grade at first glance.
If you think about it, there was something strange about it from the very beginning.
In addition, if you look closely, many of the parts that felt uncomfortable before overlap with the current conversation.
‘Is that why you called me ‘a piece of trash’?’
If you listen carefully to the other person’s argument, the man in front of you is, in some ways, a retired soldier.
A situation where even a single word that Kim Ki-ryeo muttered was explained.
The chances that the story he heard was not a lie increased.
However, even so, for an Earthling to fully digest this, it was too much of a bombshell statement.
Seon Woo-yeon wasn’t stupid.
However, because he was innocent, he quickly began to respect the opinions of others who wanted him to believe what he said, as was his usual personality.
“But you don’t think this situation is unfair, do you? If you think about it, you are the one who recklessly invaded the magician’s territory.”
To begin with, it was difficult to make complex considerations in a life-or-death crisis like this.
A few minutes later.
An Earthling who was struck by an unknown curse after coming into contact with a lemming who had perfected magic.
“No, by the way, I haven’t seen Hunter Seonwooyeon like that before. I’m disappointed. I’ve only helped you out a few times in the past, and you came to attack me because you were completely swayed by Kang Changho’s words? Did you think I was some kind of bad monster?”
After a long conversation.
As the blond man began to grumble in an annoyed tone, Seon Woo-yeon quickly explained.
“Oh, no. Wait a minute. That’s a misunderstanding!”
He had clearly stated his intentions for coming here, fearing that angry aliens would explode his head.
The creature using Kim Ki-ryeo’s resident registration card instead felt surprised by Seon Woo-yeon’s intense anxiety reaction.
But objectively speaking, it was understandable.
The alien side said throughout the story that they were only great in the past, and that their power has greatly diminished now.

Since he hasn’t revealed yet that he’s actually an F-class…
“I, I, to be exact, it’s a bit different. I came here because I was really worried about you, Hunter.”
“hmm?”
Where on earth should I begin explaining this?
The roles had long since been reversed, and now the blond man had snatched Justitia away and was putting his hand on the scale’s head.
Therefore, the association staff, Seon Woo-yeon, chose their expressions as carefully as possible to avoid being judged as false.
“I heard this from Kang Chang-ho! He said that he thinks that something bad is possessing Hunter Kim’s body right now. Just like what happens in dungeons like [Nameless Cave] or [Doppelganger]. These days, there’s a lot of chaos because of mind-controlling monsters.”
“Yes.”
“If such a beast possessed a body, it would be an extremely dangerous situation. I was worried that Hunter Kim might have gotten into trouble, even if it was just for a little while. I, from what I’ve seen of Hunter Kim, never thought of him as a bad person… “
“Ah. So it wasn’t a suspicion directed at Kim Ki-ryeo’s identity itself.”
A prick.
As Seon Woo-yeon spoke like that, there was a liquid the size of an ant’s tears in his eyes.
“I told you not to reveal your real name, didn’t I?”
“yes.”
“Then I’ll call you as usual. Hunter Kim Ki-ryeo is usually quick to enter unusual gates. I thought there was a good chance that he would be exposed to a more special dungeon disaster than others.”
Seon Woo-yeon, who came to the one-room apartment with a pure heart without any malice, contrary to the suspicions of some aliens.
But at this point a small question arises.
“Wait a minute. But if the purpose was simply to confirm whether or not it was possessed by a monster, it would have been more efficient for Kang Chang-ho, the owner of Justitia, to come in person. Didn’t you think there was something strange about the guy’s behavior of insisting on handing over the scales?”
But when I heard Seon Woo-yeon’s response that followed.
Even Lemming, the great wizard, nods his head.
“Hunter Kang Chang-ho said that if he went forward alone, no one would believe him… That’s why he said that if possible, it would be good if the association, a public institution, would mediate this matter.”
“aha.”
“Before that person reported the incident to his coworkers, I decided that it would be best for me, as a friend of Hunter, to first check the facts.”
“Umm, Seonwooyeon. Now that I think about it, what if Kang Changho’s words were true and I really was a monster? Then you would’ve been in danger, so what were you going to do about it?”
“…That’s because, whenever I go out to a dungeon or somewhere, I always write down my dispatch location in a reservation email. So, if something unusual happens, the association will know, so I thought Hunter-nim would be able to help anyway.”
“oh.”
Most of the reasons were predictable.
“Well, while we’re on the subject, should I cancel that reservation email first? We’re friends who have already shared names, and from now on, we’re just going to have a peaceful conversation in this room.”
“eww…….”
Kim Ki-ryeo continued speaking while accessing Seon Woo-yeon’s email on his own cell phone.
“Anyway, to sum it up, Seonwooyeon fell for that man’s seemingly ethical argument.”
It would be different if Kang Chang-ho had tried to suppress it with force.
Seon Woo-yeon was the type of person who would break if someone tried to bend him.
Even though he wasn’t born as a machine, he had an obsession with process.
Therefore, if Kang Chang-ho’s demands were not right in his opinion, even if the ex-convict had threatened to kill her and ordered her to harm Kim Ki-ryeo, she would not have come to the one-room apartment.
“sorry.”
A miserable voice flows out.
“Honestly… I’m human too. There are cases within the Association where people were punished for leaking information in exchange for money from Hunter Kang, right? So maybe because I’ve seen it all. No matter how much I think about it, it’s hard for me to remain neutral, so in fact, until I came here, I barely believed his claims.”
The innocent B-class sorcerer regretted his actions and soon apologized.
“But I’m worried about the top-tier hunter on my topic. I thought that even in the smallest of cases, Mr. Kim Ki-ryeo might be in trouble. I’m really very sorry….”
Of course, the owner of the room didn’t care much.
He was just as arrogant in his past life as he is now, only to a different degree. And because they have the same soul, their tastes have hardly changed.
The yellow-haired man moves his mouth slightly as he looks at the scales that never tip to the left.
“If you came because you were worried about me, that’s fine. I’m grateful.”
The alien, who had introduced himself as a lemming, quickly waved his hand.
Just by looking at his gestures, you could tell without a doubt that he was a native Korean.
“Yes. If you think about it, I’m the fundamental culprit who caused this by fighting with Kang Chang-ho. What greater sin could Seon Woo-yeon have committed?”
“A fight…? Wait a minute. Was there any friction between you two?”
“You didn’t know?”
“If I had known, would I have come here?”
After that, there was news that the media was currently under control, either for Esther’s defense of her image as an Awakened One, or due to interference from Kang Chang-ho’s side, but it wasn’t very important.
“Since information spreads so quickly on the Internet, there may have been brief posts about it. At least the news didn’t report that the two of you were fighting, and I don’t usually check social media very often… “
A man who now lives with blond hair and black eyes.
Lemming.
He thought for a moment, resting his chin on one hand.
‘hmm.’
For now, Justitia has been safely captured, so there’s no need to fall victim to the same tricks again.
Seonwooyeon, if you spend the whole day slowly boiling it, it will definitely help you in the future.
To be precise, that Earthling was a good tactic to use against any ex-convict.
The other person revealed with his own mouth that he came to see her because he was worried about Kim Ki-ryeo. Even if he was oblivious, he couldn’t help but know that this was what Korean society calls affection.
‘Yeah. I’ve been so kind to you all this time, so you should at least give me some credit.’
At least as long as the justification is not lacking.
That humble public servant was more likely to stop the unjust violence of others with all his might.
Since she is that kind of person, most of the problems are solved.
But at this point, there is just one question that is lingering in my head.
‘I fully understand why Seon Woo-yeon came here so easily. I also understand why Kang Chang-ho chose that civil servant among so many people. Ahn Yoon-seung is somewhat blind within the circle of acquaintances who can ruin our friendship, but he is relatively fair, and he is the one who causes the most damage when I make a mistake, so it’s only natural. However… … .’
The process was so smooth that I forgot for a moment.
Come to think of it, how on earth did Kang Chang-ho infer that someone else’s mind had changed?
“Hunter Kim Ki-ryeo… But there’s something I’d like to ask you for a moment… “
“Why are you suddenly being so polite?”
A little later.
As time passed, even guests who visited the studio apartment raised the same question.
Have you done anything in front of Kang Chang-ho recently that could be mistaken for a monster?
Seon Woo-yeon asked the question hesitantly, observing the situation.
But the lemming thought he was pretty good at imitating the natives of Earth.
As evidence, a B-class hunter was so shocked that he fell over when he heard that he was an alien.
So, isn’t it almost a leap of logic for the person named Kang Chang-ho to point out Kim Ki-ryeo’s identity?
“Have you noticed that you’re an alien…? Well, when Hunter Kang Chang-ho spoke to me, I don’t think you specifically said ‘monster’……”
“Well, there was Justitia, and above all, I used a contract item, so looking back, all the expressions were probably vague overall.”
The head is tilted.
Even if we were to be very lenient, it seemed impossible for Earthlings to have been able to specifically detect the existence of Alpha Uranians, let alone aliens.
Let me say this in advance, but it was even more absurd to tell that they were lemmings.
if.
If he had realized that the one who had taken possession of Kim Ki-ryeo’s body was an old-time great wizard who had been freed from all restrictions, he would not have thought of fighting him so easily even though he had seen his opponent’s weaknesses countless times.
When dealing with Alphauris, it was more reasonable to assume that a weak wizard was pretending to be weak and deceiving everyone.
Because there were many gloomy people among the super-magical races beyond the universe.
But when you think about these conditions, some people’s hostility feels both cautious and strangely low-key.
‘… … .’
So from now on, it’s even more questionable.
The man with the blue hair.
What on earth are you misunderstanding about this?
