The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood Chapter 294

Episode 294. If Failure is the Mother of Success

‘Imabari’s S-class hunter is here?’

The cold-colored hair unique to Earth-type Mana Awakeners.

Muscular body with low body fat.

And when you’re in a combat situation, there’s static electricity that sticks to you every time you walk.

-Support.

This side had come face to face with four Japanese S-class members just a few hours ago.

Now there’s no need to be confused about her identity.

‘Is this some kind of huge crisis? If those red-eyed lunatics are under the command of the Imabari guys, things will get a bit dizzy.’

I gulped when I saw the newly awakened person entering Building A.

But my worries were for naught. The lightning wizard appeared through a broken window and asked me in an urgent voice if I was okay.

Immediately afterwards, when another red-eyed Awakener fell from the hole in the ceiling, the opponent also took friendly action.

‘Oh, what? That’s not it. It was just a mess, so the Japanese representative guild came to help sort things out.’

-Flash!

Japanese lightning wizards electrocute dangerous seeds that appear.

She must have heard the general situation before coming here, because she used her skill without hesitation even though the other person was wearing a name tag written in Japanese.

And seeing that magic made me understand why that person was on the scene.

‘In this kind of thing, of course they’re better than Japan.’

In terms of firepower alone, Moritake Ito has an overwhelming advantage.

But, just because you light the fire gently doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt.

If we limit the task to subduing people of the same species, then of course that woman would be more capable.

It’s hard to feel the difference because Korea doesn’t have a top-tier hunter with the electric attribute, but it certainly seems like it has many advantages because it’s relatively easy to get your hands on.

-Chi-chik!

Uh… isn’t it?

“Keuuuu-!”

Somehow I’ve been smelling something burning for a while now.

Did this just come from some poster paper?

It was just around the time that I thought my eyes were dazzling for a very brief moment.

I closed my eyelids and opened them again, and the chaos was immediately resolved.

Because all three Awakened beings who appeared from the ceiling fell to the floor like logs and lost their movements.

In particular, the guy who was shocked by the S-class hunter was seriously injured.

I witnessed this and rolled the whites of my eyes like a Jindo dog that had done wrong, looking around.

“Ranker!”

Doesn’t he know that he’s weak physically and mentally against the might of an S-class electric attribute?

The sorcerer who had made his fellow tribesmen crispy was walking with long strides.

“I’m sorry, Ranker Kiryeo…!”

It was around the exact same time.

I noticed that the Class A that had been writhing at my feet had become quiet.

The assailant who attempted to attack the alien was unable to remove the [Scream Stake] that had entered his clothes.

‘Poor thing.’

Is this the end of creatures with inflexible joints?

The sight of the attacker fainting from the continuous pain was once again pitiful. However, feeling pity for the enemy would only result in loss, so I focused on talking to the Japanese hunter.

“By the way, what on earth happened here? Can I have a brief explanation?”

“Yes. If you need to……”

First of all, before answering, please sit quietly with your hands behind your back.

“Do you see that hole in the ceiling over there?”

I moved my hand lightly on the back where the other person couldn’t see.

Honestly, it wouldn’t be a good thing if a secret method was discovered in such a distant land.

“Suddenly the Awakened ones popped out from there.”

While a Japanese S-class hunter was concentrating on the voice of a certain corpse.

This one recovered the dagger artifact that was used calmly.

“And this guy came and attacked me as if he was going to kill me even though I didn’t do anything.”

“Oh my! Is that so?”

The collar of a fallen raider.

Fragments of the broken 1st building.

Finally, through someone’s suit-clad legs and such.

A situation where I moved the dagger out of sight towards the arm carrying the backpack, and while the opponent was looking at the ceiling, I naturally returned the equipment to the item box.

In this way, [telekinesis] is a convenient magic for many things.

It is a clean and quiet power that is difficult to capture visually or audibly.

If you have the talent, it’s better to learn psychokinesis.

“What on earth is going on!”

Well then, from now on, let’s focus on the Japanese again.

Just as I was safely putting away my weapon, the lush mammal in front of me started radioing someone.

“Iori. Where are you now? Are you still in Building D?”

Then, shortly after, the answer came back.

-Of course it’s Building D. How am I supposed to get out of here? Did you catch all three people who escaped?

“huh!”

-Then send someone to the storage facility too. I’ve been holding two people back since a while ago.

“Wait a minute! There were a total of 5 people causing this ruckus?”

I don’t know what it is though.

Anyway, it’s a mess.

Now, there are S-class lightning wizards who move around in a hurry, barely even saying hello.

Or maybe it was the sight of mammals in uniforms surrounding Hall 1 in an instant.

‘Judging by the speed at which they arrived, it doesn’t seem like they were called by the police. Oh. Was there originally a separate police patrol within the exhibition hall?’

Information I found out too late.

In fact, it seems that there were police officers patrolling the area periodically to maintain order within the Tokyo event venue.

They were spread out in small numbers over a wide area. It was just that some Alphauri had not seen them for a while.

‘Besides, it would have been difficult to keep a close watch on them since they weren’t awakened.’

But what’s the problem?

Anyway, at least those uniformed people weren’t visible inside Building A.

When it comes to theft, speed is key.

The estimated duration of the planned maneuver was approximately three minutes.

If everything had gone according to plan within three minutes, there wouldn’t have been a problem even if they had come running when they heard the fire alarm.

Yes. The whole area was just a showpiece barrier, so even if there was just a split second of opening, there would have been a real chance of victory.

I never thought things would turn out this way.

“Quickly control the surrounding area, and if there are any visitors left in Building A, guide them to another place.”

“I got a call. Are there any injuries?”

“Everyone lying around here is a perpetrator, so first, arrest them……”

But there’s nothing I can do.

‘Hmm.’

The police swarmed in front of my eyes.

First of all, an S-class hunter has moved to the upper floor of this building.

‘Mission failed!’

I gave up on [Fragments of the Midnight] cleanly.

I’ve never attempted such petty crime in my life, so I can’t even think about trying again.

‘Objectively, I’m not very experienced or good at dealing with variables in this kind of thing.’

Now I’m even thinking that it’s fortunate that the plan was ruined from the start.

Things have gotten this big, but if it hadn’t been interrupted by external factors, wouldn’t it have been a close call?

Over there.

The awakened being who had been electrocuted is seen being carried away tied up in an awkward manner.

‘Let’s write witness statements as honestly as possible for our friends around the world… ‘

I thought to myself as I watched the mammals being electrocuted.

This seems like a revelation from God telling me not to be greedy.

Rather than being proud of your knowledge and ending up like that, it would be much better to put aside all material desires and make up your mind to go to Korea.

The lightning strike from the hunter that appeared was terrifying.

No matter which country you go to, S-class is always S-class.

***

A long time later.

The rooftop on one side of the event venue.

“Please block everything from there to there. There are still cracks here. Please reinforce these as well.”

Currently, Building A has completely closed off the area and is inspecting the damaged building.

Although it wasn’t planned, the Imabari Guild was often in charge of restoring streets that had collapsed due to the break during the early days of Dungeon Shock.

Soon, civil engineering contractors within the guild or related Awakened people went to the site and fixed the damage.

But even though the work was going smoothly, someone’s sighs never stopped.

“Ha, why did it have to be at an international event like this…….”

Look at the footprints left nearby.

Those red guards, who looked like zombies, came to this garden through that cloud bridge, and then broke through the ground and entered Building A, Hall 1, which was the actual event venue.

The blue-haired Japanese man wiped his face as he recalled that fact again.

“Ahh!”

Anyway, what kind of shame is this that I never expected?

While she was deep in thought, not long after, the number one ranked Japanese player appeared here.

“Representative Ito.”

The head of the guild has finally shown his face.

“Have you been held back by the National Party members until now?”

But there was a reason for his actions.

Because the politician who visited the event site exerted strong pressure on the representative of Imabari.

‘I don’t know what the fuss is about, but if you leave me here alone, it means you’ve abandoned the politicians who are leading Japan, so there will be problems with the management of the guild in the future… ‘

That’s why I want to avoid talking about politics outside.

Because of the lax exercise of power by the privileged class, everything is now in shambles.

“Phew.”

As Moritake Ito sighed silently, the hunter next to him roughly understood what he meant.

My colleague, a young man, also seemed to want to ignore the political troubles in Japan, and his face suddenly became listless.

It was Moritake who continued the interrupted conversation.

“Anyway, to put it bluntly, this event was a bust.”

It was a clear declaration.

“There’s a hole in the building, so there’s no way this chaos won’t leak out.”

“Wow~”

“We’ll probably be covered by foreign media soon. The first line will probably be something like, “Is the Japanese government incapable of hosting international events?”

“Representative Ito. Ever since I was little, I’ve dreamed of becoming known worldwide. After reaching S-Rank, I feel like I’ve achieved that in so many ways.”

And what about the highlight auction scheduled for the second day?

When Building A was closed due to an unknown accident, anxiety spread among the visitors.

The event organizers tried to convince customers in the most humble manner that all the problems had now been resolved, but some customers had already checked their flight times back to their home countries.

News is like a word without legs, so this information will probably reach the ears of S-class hunters abroad in an instant.

The expected decline in the upper limit.

Plus a decrease in overall profits.

The number of people coming to Japan to participate in future highlight auctions will inevitably decrease by 100%.

“If we’re not careful, this event could end up increasing Tokyo’s debt.”

The outlook was gloomy.

“By the way, is there really no one who should pay the medical expenses?”

But even in this unexpected accident, there was one fortunate thing.

“Yes. I asked the dispatched police several times, but there were no injured civilians.”

I feel dizzy.

If there were any casualties among the civilians.

And what if it was even a foreign audience?

Perhaps even a wealthy lobbyist would not have been able to cover up the waves.

But, as I just said, strangely enough, in this case there was only a perpetrator and no injured victim.

Why?

Well, it was the overseas guests who responded quickly, so the incident at Hall 1 didn’t involve ‘any’ ordinary people.

‘oh my god.’

Kim Ki-ryeo.

In fact, when Imabari’s lightning attribute arrived, some Koreans had already almost cleared up the scene.

And shockingly, the blonde man left no trace of any fighting on the first floor of the event hall where he was.

How is that possible?

Even though there was a difference in numbers, Iori’s side had half of the hallways in shambles while dealing with lower level Awakeners.

S-class Awakened people have a hard time dealing with people because of their overflowing power.

But how quickly did that man subdue his opponent?

‘The results are so clean… … .’

One person fell unconscious as if falling asleep.

And the remaining one was crawling on the ground, screaming in pain as if he had suffered an internal injury.

‘How did he subdue an A-rank Awakened person without much trouble? I can’t believe it. It’s as if that hunter didn’t have experience in hunting humans like animals… … .’

The guild leader of Imabari swallowed dryly for a moment as he recalled the situation at the time that his colleague had relayed to him.

And at this time.

He got a call on his cell phone.

It was a call containing new news that Moritake Ito could not help but be surprised by.
