The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood Chapter 85

Episode 85. You Don’t Know the Heart of a Single Person

A few minutes ago.

“We’ve secured Jang Jong-sik!”

“Collect, collect! Ouch, the smell of gunpowder.”

After the planned arrest operation was over.

‘Huh?’

Seonwooyeon noticed Giryeo’s absence a little late.

Until just now, I was out of my mind due to the chaos caused by the members of the organization who were drunk on Blue Shell.

‘Where did you go?’

She felt that the emotional story had lost its way, so she belatedly set out to find Kim Ki-ryeo.

-Gyaaaah!

But something was strange.

-Please save me!

As I got closer to where the skill was pointing, I could gradually hear something like a woman’s scream…

-I’ll tell you!

Finally, when we reached the problematic hallway.

It was only then that Seonwooyeon realized one thing.

-I’ll tell you everything without hiding anything! I’ll even remember what you asked me earlier somehow. Please… … !

In between these questionable pleas.

That a familiar male voice was mixed in.

‘what?’

But compared to someone’s scream, Kiria’s voice was so quiet that it was impossible to understand what sentences he was saying.

‘What the heck?’

I feel an inexplicable sense of anxiety.

So Seonwooyeon quickened his pace and soon entered the room they were in.

“ah.”

“…!”

But as soon as I got to the room, this was the sight I saw.

“You came quickly?”

Kim Ki-ryeo was crouching on the floor, holding someone’s hair. Now, he showed no sign of trying to hide it.

And what is that bloodstain?

The woman he was holding had a face covered in blood.

As if I had hit my head on something… … .

“Hic!”

At this moment, the woman with the bloody face jumped up when she saw the association ID card hanging around Seon Woo-yeon’s neck.

And then he runs with all his might, grabs hold of his trouser legs, and shouts:

“Hyun-tsung, are you from the association? Please help me! I’ll embroider. I’ll embroider the blue shell!”

Seon Woo-yeon’s heart sank for a moment.

It didn’t take much effort to understand the situation.

‘Did you hit someone?’

She looked in the direction where Kim Ki-ryeo was with surprised eyes.

‘That too for ordinary people?’

But what came back was just a cold gaze, like hardened wax.

“This guy is really misunderstood… … .”

Thud, thud.

After a while, the hunter got up and came over to me. Then he spoke to the trembling woman.

“Excuse me. Even if your mouth is crooked, you should speak straight.”

“Hee, heek!”

“What did you do when I hit you? Huh?”

Then, the mysterious citizen immediately corrects his statement.

“Yes, yes! Ma, that’s right. He didn’t do anything to me.”

But how credible are such frightening words?

“… … .”

Seon Woo-yeon’s mind turned blank.

perhaps.

Perhaps, Kim Ki-ryeo was a much more dangerous person than we thought.

Maybe I was just making a huge mistake.

Otherwise, how could I have brought a complete stranger to this point… … .

“Mr. Seonwooyeon?”

The B-class hunter raised his head at the sound of his name being called.

But I couldn’t make eye contact with the other person.

When I look at the gaze of that awakened person, emotions I had forgotten start to bloom.

“What’s wrong? You’re sweating profusely.”

It’s scary and unpleasant.

“Are you hurt? Should I help you?”

A thoughtful attitude. Bloody hands. A calm voice. A sobbing woman.

“No, it’s okay.”

What on earth should I believe in?

***

“Oh my, everyone is having a hard time!”

A dark warehouse hallway.

Suddenly, a young man’s voice bursts out. It was the voice produced by Kim Ki-ryeo’s corpse.

“Are you having a hard time? Give it to me. I’ll move it with you.”

“Huh? Hunters, you can sit down.”

“How can we be the only ones playing? It’s okay. Please give it to me.”

I approached the police officers, speaking in a bright tone.

Then they readily handed over the box they were holding, which turned out to be the problematic blue shells.

“It’ll take a day to carry everything.”

“Haha, if you keep doing this, you’ll finish it surprisingly quickly.”

So we ransacked this warehouse and confiscated every single Blue Shell.

“Ugh.”

Empty.

And by the time the last box was loaded onto the truck.

I turned my gaze to a noisy sound coming from somewhere.

“f*ck, open it! Open it!”

“Oh, right. That drug-addicted bastard is doing it again.”

Looking closely, I see that the criminal arrested in the backseat of the police car is going crazy.

His name is… Jang Jong-sik, right?

“Is this window rolled down?”

I walked up to the police car and knocked on the glass door and said, “Open this for a minute.”

“Is this enough?”

“Yes, thank you.”

Then, the unnecessary partitions will be gone. Now, it’s time to get down to business.

“What the hell are you! You f*cking bastard!”

I ignored the screams that were bursting out and studied the man in the backseat intently.

Then, a vague magical power was felt from his body. Even though the opponent was clearly a non-awakened person.

‘oh.’

This is the magic felt by ordinary people. This means one thing.

‘You’re under a spell, aren’t you?’

It was as expected.

The brainwasher from the temple of Nachal also laid hands on this man. His tail was stepped on.

‘Hoo hoo hoo.’

So where should I show off my skills?

I took out the magic booster I had hidden and drank it. I wanted to track down the sorcerer.

“Hunter Kim Ki-ryeo, just a moment.”

But I couldn’t help but stop for a moment when I heard a voice from behind.

“What are you going to do?”

“Ah, Seonwooyeon.”

What are you trying to do?

Of course.

“I’m going to do this to find out who’s high up in that evil organization, just like I promised.”

When I spoke coolly, Seon Woo-yeon frowned as if he was suspicious of something, but soon became silent.

It was a reaction that I knew but didn’t know.

‘Are you worried about failing?’

Somehow, the back of my head feels hot… .

So I started working with Seonwooyeon’s glare.

Even so, it’ll be over in 3 seconds.

“What, what? Aren’t you going to close your eyes? What are you looking at? What are you looking at!”

Pick it up one by one.

I rolled up the sleeves of my shirt and clenched my left hand into a fist for a while.

1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds.

At this point, enough mana should have circulated through the magic circle drawn in advance.

“uh?”

Sigh.

The blue shell addict suddenly became quiet when he saw the palm extended to him.

That’s unexpected. I thought the resistance would be strong.

By any chance, did he notice that I had lifted the skin on his palm and hidden a magic circle in the dermis layer… … .

‘How could that be?’

I finished my brief daydream and focused on my work.

-Jiiiiing.

By using advanced magic, he extracted the necessary information from the human in front of him.

“Whoaaaaah!”

“What, what is it?”

“Don’t worry. That’s just a joke. A joke.”

To explain in more detail.

Should I say that I stole his memories of the moment when his brainwashing skill was activated?

‘Originally, the standard way to find the magician was to trace back the magic power, but that’s impossible for F-rank… … .’

If you go straight, you’ll be fine as long as you get to Seoul. Of course. I didn’t stay up for three nights for nothing. That’s what I’m saying.

In the end, I somehow found a way to feed the temple.

“Hey, I know it doesn’t hurt, so stop freaking out.”

Knock knock knock.

I pounded on the wall of the car and urged the Blueshell addict on.

Well, now let’s get to the main point.

“Jongsik, let me ask you one thing.”

“Gasp, ugh… … .”

Then, the name from my stolen memories flowed out of my mouth.

“Who exactly is ‘Su Ye-hui’?”

***

I was going to keep trying until I could, but surprisingly I found it quickly.

Luckily, the brainwasher’s self-introduction remained in his memory.

“My name is Su Ye-hui. I look to be about 160cm tall. My hair is gray, but my eyes are really big.”

I explained the characteristics of a certain Awakened person by searching through my stolen memories.

Then Seon Woo-yeon, who was listening, nodded.

“You have an amazing skill.”

“Yes. What.”

“Thank goodness. I thought there would be bloodshed in front of the detectives again… … .”

“yes?”

“Ah… … . It’s nothing.”

Well, I’m glad it’s nothing.

“Anyway, that’s all the information I can gather right now.”

For reference, the place we are sitting right now is the steps in front of a police station in Seoul. When Seonwooyeon asked me to go to a cafe, I resisted because I didn’t want to.

“Whether that person is a true member of the Nachal Temple or not. It’s hard to prove those issues right now… .”

But in the end, I couldn’t avoid my fate of drinking coffee.

A little later.

I went back into the police station after receiving an urgent call from a detective, and as payment for my visit, I was suddenly given a coffee from a vending machine… .

“Mr. Seonwooyeon, please check this information.”

“Oh, yes.”

“First of all, when we searched on our side, we found exactly one hunter named Suye Hwi.”

I sat there with my coffee in my hand, a drowsy face, listening to what they said.

“Let’s see. Su Ye-hui, C-class hunter, registered skill is something like water ball… … .”

“The photo looks correct.”

But I can’t just ignore this statement.

“C-class? No way!”

I couldn’t hold it in any longer so I blurted out a word. Then everyone’s eyes were fixed on me. It was burdensome.

“Something is wrong.”

“You say it’s wrong?”

“Because the amount of mana of a C-class Awakened person is not enough to brainwash that many people.”

What follows is simple arithmetic.

“In terms of calculations, you need at least an A-class to do something like that. No, maybe you could even see an S-class… … .”

After thinking about it for a while, I came up with a suggestion.

“Hunter Seonwooyeon!”

“Yes, yes?”

“Let’s start with the re-examination decision first.”

First of all, it is certain that they lied about the ratings.

“There’s no way Su Ye-hui is a C-class, so let’s first pretend to have awakened and fall.”

“ah!”

“That’s also a big crime, right? We’ll investigate the brainwashing case step by step.”

What happened after that was truly a breeze.

Confessions of a Blueshell distributor.

Suspicious gap in gate entry records.

And because of this information discovered in the auction house usage records, the association decided to re-examine the Awakened.

[September 29th Infinite Power Core Auction – Su*Hwi]

‘Hahaha! This kid got caught!’

If the awakened person named Suye Hwi is arrested, the Nachal Temple will definitely suffer a huge blow.

“Oh, this one didn’t get caught in the end either.”

I returned home with a relieved heart.

In my pants pocket there were three blue shells.

And the next day.

“Are Earthlings Gods?”

Late lunch. Around the time I first encountered delivery food.

“With just a click of a finger, the food you want comes to your home. Are you really an Earthling? No, are Koreans gods…?”

Knock knock knock. Knock knock knock.

I belatedly picked up my phone at the sound of it vibrating on the table.

But what came out of the speakers wasn’t exactly hopeful news.

“No, what did you say?”

According to Seon Woo-yeon, who called, the person named Su Ye-hui suddenly disappeared as soon as the re-examination decision came out.

“This doesn’t even get affected by the searchers’ skills, right?”

In the end, the Korean police publicly searched for the cultist as a suspect. It was an unpleasant ending for me.

‘It ends with just a wanted notice?’

Wait, but if things were normal, the call would have ended at this point.

-Mr. Kiryeo.

The call was still connected, so I listened for the voice coming from the speaker.

-…I have something to ask you.

“yes.”

-By the way, why were you interested in the investigation of the temple of Nachal?

“yes?”

-If you think about it, you weren’t like this at other times…

It’s sudden.

-I want to hear your reason for getting involved in this matter.

But, well, it’s not like I can’t answer.

“So what you’re saying is, why did you choose to take the Nachal Temple?”

Rustle rustle.

I said as I carried the delivered stir-fried pork to the desk.

“It’s nothing.”

The tone was light, but the answer was more sincere than ever.

“I just don’t like what those guys are doing.”

But right after that, for some reason, a coughing sound came from the other end of the phone.
