The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood Chapter 290

Episode 290. World Artifact Expo (3)

uh?

‘The hunter from America is the winner?’

The one who obtained [Triaina] from IHT was none other than Enzo Ciano.

‘It’s strange. China has no intention of giving its number one product to foreign countries.’

The moment I tried to do it, I fell into doubt.

Because the tournament venue he remembered had all sorts of tricks hidden inside.

If you know the exact location, you can break the magic stone at any time to increase the external magic concentration, and it even has environmental characteristics that are advantageous to certain hunters no matter where you look.

‘In common parlance, the table was set.’

The Archmage naturally assumed that Zhan would win.

And according to Seon Woo-yeon’s testimony, Enzo actually showed himself to be pushed back a lot in the beginning of the game…

Of course, while the viewers were briefly focused on washing the dishes, the fighting situation was immediately reversed.

“Hmm.”

“I remember there was a lot of talk about Enzo Ciano Hunter’s win.”

But anyway, does it matter?

Whether it was Triaina or Enzo, in the end, these were topics that no one needed to worry about from a third party’s perspective.

“I guess I was mistaken.”

Finally, the ice cream arrived.

Seonwooyeon received the finished ice cream cone and handed it to Giryeo.

“bon appetite.”

Well then, from now on, you can enjoy your life as a spectator with some cool snacks.

That was when.

He asked the civil servant a question without even putting the snack in his mouth.

“By the way, I didn’t have time to think about it, so I’m asking now. How was your last week?”

“yes?”

“The scale was recovered. So you met Kang Chang-ho during that process. Are you sure it’s okay?”

The conversation flowed for a while.

“It was someone else who came to look for the item.”

“who?”

“It was just someone a little older… I don’t know for sure, but anyway, he connected with Kang Chang-ho via video call and told him that he was the agent.”

“I never thought of that method.”

“Anyway, the scales tipped the scales. If I hadn’t kept my promise, I don’t know how things would have turned out.”

For reference, at that time, all personnel who were supposed to protect Seonwooyeon were sent to the site of the collapsed building in Mapo-gu.

“The person who said he came to find the item really gave me the scale and I left quietly?”

“To be exact… Hunter Kang was curious about what we were talking about.”

“hmm.”

“But since I was being vague, he didn’t ask any questions. It felt like he wasn’t expecting anything in the first place?”

“You muddled it?”

“You hid it well.”

Seon Woo-yeon said calmly.

“I kept the secret. Because Hunter asked me to.”

It was for a reason that the listener could not have expected.

The association staff member in front of me just sang sentences from the heart without thinking much about it.

Seonwooyeon simply focused on his request to remain silent.

Even in unconscious conversations, we don’t think about scary curses.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

That was Seon Woo-yeon.

This civil servant’s honesty was both his strength and his weakness.

First of all, assuming that a certain level of trust has been built between the two.

Since she was young, she had a strong tendency to take what her conversation partners said at face value.

Sometimes it was a bit extreme.

【Please give me tea leaves for compensation.

= I didn’t ask for money

= Then I guess I should give tea leaves instead of money.】

So, even though I received a little too much help, I didn’t pay any additional price on my own.

No matter how much socialization he had gone through, such a refined way of consideration was difficult for Seon Woo-yeon to grasp.

【This is a secret. So don’t tell anyone.】

No matter how many times I look at it, it’s still like a machine.

If you present an accurate proposition, I will protect it with my life even if it causes damage.

If we infer from certain characteristics, the promise made to Seonwooyeon will inevitably be kept for a long time.

“…….”

Kim Ki-ryeo seemed lost in thought for a moment and then spoke.

“Anyway, as long as your limbs are intact, it’s fine.”

“Where are you going?”

“From now on, I’m going to travel alone. Anyway, I bought the return ticket thanks to my friend.”

“that….”

“If I don’t show up at the airport on the last day, just worry about it for a little while.”

Crunch crunch.

It was a bonus that I quickly devoured my snack after seeing the sign asking me to eat food inside the store.

Aren’t your teeth sensitive?

“Just a moment!”

A man in a suit was just about to leave after cleaning up the trash.

Seon Woo-yeon, who had become free, called him out.

“yes?”

But if I had known it was for this reason, I would have just ignored it.

“Hunter, this is the price for ice cream. It’s about 5,000 won. You can send it to me through internet banking later.”

“Has the government recently failed to pay civil servants’ wages?”

That was their last conversation on the first day.

It was vain.

.

.

.

“Iori. What happened?”

“Phew.”

“That Korean guy didn’t blow up Haneda Airport, right? Huh? And where did Ito go? Is he dead?”

one side.

Entrance to the upper exhibition hall of Building A.

“Calm down. Your guild master is just here to greet a National Party representative who is visiting the exhibition hall.”

Hunters gather and talk in a small staff hallway.

“And fortunately, the airport built with all the people’s taxes is safe.”

“really?”

“Mr. Kim Ki-ryeo’s attitude was very gentle.”

The one who mainly leads the conversation is Iori Yamasaka, an S-class hunter with the wind attribute.

“Considering what you’ve done, it’s not surprising that you’re causing a ruckus at any time. Anyway, aren’t you really a gentleman?”

What if the current situation is just a secret plan by the opponent?

Is it right to criticize and mock Imabari indiscriminately when a legend is involved?

“You don’t have to say that. You know our situation very well.”

“That’s why I’m swearing more.”

The shorter man shrugs and responds.

But their fight didn’t last long.

Even though they said this, Iori’s side did not plan to completely turn against their country’s comrades.

“No matter how much you hate me, make sure you at least apologize properly to that Korean.”

“under…….”

“Last time, the person in question left the country first, so I just had to bow my head inside the monitor.”

“surely.”

“Since we’ve come all the way to Tokyo, we should at least see each other’s faces. I’ll do my best to act as a buffer, so please take this opportunity to resolve everything.”

Iori continues speaking.

“The domestic atmosphere is really ominous. This is a dangerous rate of increase for the awakened… If things go wrong, we could really receive help from Korea again.”

They killed some time talking about such strange topics.

The most important event takes place on the second day of the fair.

So, on the contrary, there wasn’t much to worry about today.

“Iori. By the way, did you finish packing up your stuff safely?”

A member of the Imabari guild leaning against the hallway wall asks a question.

To this Iori replied.

“An object? Ah, an artifact?”

“huh.”

“If that’s the case, I should have brought it into storage early in the morning.”

Tokyo uses one of the world’s best item safes.

The stability of underground storage was higher than that of S-rank items that were always kept in the item box.

“[Triaina’s] auction.”

I never thought I would ever broker a deal for something like this in my life.

“By the way, that hunter named Enzo is also quite unique.”

Before the 3rd Tokyo Expo was held.

A hunter living in the United States saw the announcement of the event in Japan and immediately listed his property for sale.

[If you sell your items to all the hunters in the world, you can get a much better top price? Haha, that sounds good!]

But somehow it was a strange behavior.

[I don’t need this stuff anyway! I was planning on selling it to use for alcohol when I got it, so I’ll just give it to you.]

If it was something that could be thrown away so easily, why did they fight so fiercely in the tournament?

Last IHT (International Hunter Tournament).

In fact, most of those watching the event predicted Zhan’s victory.

Even if it weren’t for the status of being China’s representative hunter.

Objectively, Zhan was a strong shooter who could easily be said to be in the top 0.01% in the world.

However, despite having numerous home ground advantages, Zhan ended up losing.

Because of this, Japanese netizens even went so far as to say that China might later sentence Zhan to hard labor, citing the issue of national prestige.

‘In a way, because of that win, America’s status, which had been falling, suddenly rose again.’

To win the duel despite all the adverse conditions.

‘You’re a total monster.’

After Brooklyn went missing.

After many incidents, an American named ‘Enzo’ has become the de facto leader of the hunter industry.

It means that the power that the Awakened displayed in the tournament was so terrifying that the world was in an uproar.

But for some reason, Iori didn’t like this phenomenon very much.

‘I liked Brooklyn Morgan a lot better.’

He suppressed the Awakened forces that staged an unjust coup and indiscriminately massacred ordinary citizens.

Anyway, the world’s number one ranked person has achieved so many beneficial achievements for humanity that the word angel is his nickname.

Brooklyn was an admirable figure.

But the newly ascended industry peak, in contrast, had no dignity at all.

“hmm.”

In many ways, the state of affairs is regrettable, but now seems to be not the time to worry about such things.

‘Because Mr. Kim Ki-ryeo is in Tokyo right now.’

Iori Hunter once again focused on the present situation.

“Anyway, should I get up now?”

Just a few minutes ago.

The four S-rank hunters from Japan decided to apologize in person with the aim of improving their relationship with the person involved.

When asked by the four people if they could visit briefly, the Korean hunter replied like this.

-Okay. Instead, since we’re spending this much time here, why don’t you show me around? I came to Tokyo after seeing the photos in this article.

The only reason I left the country was to take promotional photos for the World Artifact Expo.

“Isn’t that a good thing?”

That means Kim Ki-ryeo didn’t come here to raise the issue of compensation!

A former colleague who once worked together in Imabari said with a bright expression.

But Iori’s expression only hardened and he whispered in a small voice.

“What do you like? I’m already so nervous because of that answer.”

“uh?”

“There are three S-class hunters in our country who tried to capture and kill me. Even Mr. Kim Ki-ryeo showed up almost alone this time.”

“…!”

“Then, what happened in the Dragon Raid should naturally be interpreted as not being a small amount of stress for him?”

A refreshing attitude, as if to say that it doesn’t matter if the confrontations experienced in the past are repeated at any time.

Iori pointed out this context and warned us to be very careful.

Then, the colleague who was walking with me covered my mouth with a shocked expression.

but.

Thinking back, it was a truly frightening display of generosity that the Korean man came to Tokyo.

‘Oh my god. How confident can you be in your own skills…?’

It was that kind of moment.

-Thump, thump, thump.

The sound of footsteps suddenly began to flow between the passageway connecting Buildings A and B of the exhibition hall.

If it were normal, the approach of a person with supernatural powers would be detected first by the opponent’s magical power.

But the man who just appeared in the hallway was completely unresponsive to such cognitive methods.

A crawling snake or something.

Or like a gently gliding owl.

A new generation of predators that do not give separate warnings to their prey.

“Hey, Hunter Kim Ki-ryeo.”

A hunter of dyed hair from across the sea soon stops in front of them.

And the other party delivered a very stiff translation voice through PIXY’s device.

-hello.

I’m so nervous even though we only exchanged greetings.

Anyway, as always, the problem is money in all worldly affairs. What on earth made you try to harm such a scary person last time…?

***

‘Wow, the kid next to me has collected a ton of good equipment. Iori was fine, but when there are four of them side by side, I’m scared because of their magic power.’

hmm.

‘Well, I guess I won’t bother to attack since I’m a broke guy with no legends or anything, right?’

Did I come to Tokyo for nothing?

‘Hey… Are you going to dare? Friends of the Earth?’

This happened about 45 minutes after arriving at the artifact exhibition hall.

I received a call from a Japanese hunter named Iori and went to Building A of the Tokyo event venue, which was the meeting place.

We met again with the four highest-level Awakened people, led by Ito.

But as soon as I saw that stubborn Earthling’s face, I was overcome with regret.

‘If a fight breaks out now, I’m dead… … .’

The four Japanese S-class members gathered here once again sincerely apologized to me for what happened during the Dragon Raid.

But from the perspective of the weak, this was a situation where they could not be entirely happy, as it seemed like a python bowing down to a frog.

“Uh… Okay, that’s fine. Just show me the stuff.”

I feel uneasy when the other person keeps bringing up things from the past.

So I tried to change the subject somehow, but for some reason, as soon as Hunter Iori heard this, he started giving directions in an excessively urgent manner.

I headed to the repository of an item that was featured in an internet article.

“If it’s the item in the photo that Mr. Kim Ki-ryeo showed me, I’ll buy it. They had a pre-exhibition before the event.”

The room we arrived at was a dark exhibition hall with only the transparent object in the center shining with a separate light.

The object is inside the case.

I was able to confirm its identity just by actually encountering the substance I was aiming for.

‘That’s right!’

However, no matter how excellent your emotional ability is, you can’t receive the names of objects, so let’s check it out first.

‘I bought this machine before leaving the country, so I’m not sure if it will work properly in a foreign country.’

Beep.

‘Ah, it works. The output language is also in Korean… Huh? Wait a minute.’

As I held up a portable analyzer commonly used on Earth, some information soon appeared before my eyes.
