Chapter 43
Episode 43
Afternoon in Metro City.
Shin Yoo-seong and Kim Eun-ah walk around the city wearing Gaon school uniforms. Naturally, the murmur of the citizens was heard.
“Are these the students who came?”
“me! It’s the first time I’ve seen it in person!”
Citizens’ longing eyes.
Hunters who attacked the tower, spread unknown knowledge and skills, and protected the world from the threat of dungeons and gates were heroes to the citizens.
Of course, the current hunters were strongly entangled in the logic of capital. Even that part has not changed that it is an object of admiration for the general public.
“Oh wow! brother! Are you Hunter!? It’s crazy!”
Strangely enough, the boy approached with his eyes shining. Kim Eun-ah frowned in annoyance.
“What else is he?”
“me? me! People’s Day! 5 years old!”
However, Kim Eun-ah’s harsh reaction did not work for a 5-year-old boy.
‘…5 years old.’
Shin Yoo-seong, at the age of a child, thought for a moment, then stroked his hair affectionately.
“Is Hunter cool?”
At Shin Yoo-seong’s question, the little boy nodded vigorously with his eyes shining even more.
“Totally merciful! Hunters have weapons too! And uh… kill the monsters too!”
After he finished speaking, the little boy’s interest soon turned to Kim Eun-ah.
“By the way, pretty sister. Does your sister have a gun and a sword?”
At the story of how pretty the little girl was, Kim Eun-ah’s mouth twitched for a moment.
The arrogant Kim Eun-ah seemed to feel good about the kid’s pure praise.
“me? I don’t have one.”
Kim Eun-ah, who was in a good mood, answered. The kid added spurs to the question.
“omg! So how do you kill the monster? Monsters are really strong.”
Now 5 years old. It’s time to be very curious. Instead of answering, Kim Eun-ah lit a blue electricity in her hand.
Cheer! Paperweight!
“With this.”
The kid covered his mouth with both hands at Kim Eun-ah’s electric power.
“Crazy…”
And then, a little boy who muttered with moved eyes. Even though Kim Eun-ah was in a better mood, she pretended nothing was wrong.
“Well… my characteristics can be counted on one hand even in Korea.”
A kid who is only 5 years old and Kim Eun-ah got along better than I thought. Shin Yuseong watched them as if they were having fun.
‘…He plays better than I thought.’
When he came to the idea that perhaps the mental age of the two might be similar, the kid made a shocking remark.
“But are you and your brother dating?”
After saying that, the child’s eyes alternate between Shin Yoo-seong and Kim Eun-ah. Kim Eun-ah narrowed her eyebrows.
“what!? my me?”
Let Kim Eun-ah freak out with a disgusted face. The kid was disappointed.
“Um, aren’t you getting married? why?”
“Why am I marrying him?”
Kim Eun-ah narrows her eyes as if it is absurd. The little boy shouted with his eyes shining with a face of course.
“Because they are both hunters! And hyung is handsome!”
A child’s mere thought.
However, Kim Eun-ah, who does not know defeat, never lost even if her opponent was 5 years old.
“Hey Kid. It has nothing to do with marriage. okay?”
Kim Eun-ah was teaching a young child seriously. A rare spectacle between a 17-year-old and a 5-year-old.
“sure?”
However, Kim Eun-ah was speechless at the kid’s innocent question.
“So, about marriage…”
No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t come up with an answer, so Kim Eun-ah, avoiding the kid, secretly sent a signal to Shin Yoo-seong.
Kim Eun-ah’s request for help.
Shin Yoo-seong, who was watching, smiled and called Kim Eun-ah.
“Is it Eun?”
Kim Eun-ah glared at the kid for a moment, as if she was resentful of being pushed back, then turned proudly.
* * *
Metro City was so peaceful. The reality was that there were no serious threats such as gates or villains, and there were no even minor accidents.
2 hours left until the end of the patrol.
Unable to overcome boredom, Kim Eun-ah covered her mouth and yawned tearfully before speaking to Shin Yoo-seong.
“…Call for a cup of coffee?”
Then, Kim Eun-ah points with her thumb to the cafe she saw earlier. Shin Yoo-seong flatly refused.
“I’m still on patrol.”
The bitter taste of coffee Shin Yoo-seong felt was similar to the elixir that Kwon Wang decocted with medicinal herbs. Coffee doesn’t become stronger like an elixir, but I didn’t want to eat it in a place where there was something delicious like banana milk.
However, Kim Eun-ah did not give up and tried to convince her.
“Hey, this is patrol too! How do you know if a gate will appear in the cafe all of a sudden?”
Kim Eun-ah, who insists on having a cup of coffee.
“ok? Do I really have a good sense of touch?”
Shin Yoo-seong eventually turned to the cafe after Kim Eun-ah’s persistent persuasion.
‘A little while will be fine.’
That time when I approached the cafe to some extent.
Tring! Pot-!
A sound came from their pockets, and a hologram floated into the air.
《Warning》
─Level 4 risk of gate occurrence
─Type: [Dungeon]
─Dungeon name: Bird’s Nest
ㅡLocation: Street 426-152 Café
It was true that Kim Eun-ah had a good sense of touch.
Wheein-!!
In Metro City, a siren sounded loud enough from the speakers installed in advance to spread the emergency.
[This is the entire Metro City broadcast]
[Currently, a gate is being created on Route 426. Please evacuate the surrounding citizens quickly.]
Shin Yoo-seong and Kim Eun-ah.
No further explanation was needed for the two of them.
Dig!
Shin Yoo-seong grants mana to his legs and sprints at breakneck speed. Kim Eun-a used her own characteristic, electricity.
Paget! Paperweight!
Kim Eun-ah, engulfed in electricity, disappeared in an instant. Speed like a fleeting flash. Kim Eun-ah, who covered a huge distance in an instant, thought to herself while watching Shin Yoo-seong ahead.
‘What’s faster than me?’
Shin Yoo-seong’s speed was not a characteristic strength in Kim Eun-ah’s eyes. Just a product of pure physical ability and mana control.
At the age of 17, Shin Yoo-seong was doing impossible things for active soldiers.
‘What’s your identity?’
[The Gate Management Bureau will spread the message again. Currently, the cracks on Route 426 are growing. You are nearby…]
The Bureau’s broadcast echoed again.
“It’s real…”
Kim Eun-ah, who was running, stopped moving. Now Kim Eun-ah saw Shin Yoo-seong, who had already arrived, and a crack next to it.
An endlessly empty purple portal.
Eunah Kim shouted excitedly that her prediction was correct.
“Hey hey hey! Did I say I might come out for real!?”
However, unlike Kim Eun-ah, who was excited, Shin Yoo-seong’s expression was serious.
“good job. Now let’s prepare for battle.”
The gate opened this time is level 4.
An opponent similar to the level 4 bosses that Shin Yoo-seong has easily defeated so far. Even so, Shin Yoo-seong was not vigilant.
‘…Let’s close the gate without damaging the city as much as possible.’
Shin Yuseong was thinking of not only attacking the gate, but also the safety of the city.
Khazik! Kazijijik!
With the sound of something breaking, the purple crack in the gate got bigger and bigger.
“Kiikkissik?”
Unidentified cries from the gate. Soon after, something poked out from the crack in the gate.
huge head.
yellow beak.
2 meters is a good size.
“Kieek! Kiyooook!”
The grotesque bird raised its head, howled toward the sky, and walked out of the gate.
“under! It was grandiose, but only one?”
As Kim Eun-ah smiled confidently, rogue birds continued to walk out of the gate as if mocking Kim Eun-ah.
“Are you kidding me?”
“Kieek!”
Now, the total number of monsters is 5.
Embarrassed, Kim Eun-ah looked at the gate and shouted.
“No, what keeps coming out? Level 4 gate right? Why doesn’t the boss come out like this too?”
“Kiyok!”
“Kiyook!?”
The grotesque birds tilt their heads at Kim Eun-ah. As if Kim Eun-ah’s words had become seeds, the purple gate turned red.
Koo-kung!
A metal beak came out of the gate with a great vibration. Seeing the metal, Kim Eun-ah’s complexion deteriorated rapidly.
“…Four pockets. information analysis.”
———————==
Name – Silver Beak
Appearance Dungeon – Rare Bird’s Nest
Danger Level – Class 4 Boss
– Monster
Information – Feathers wrapped around the body are of steel has a character You can’t fly through the sky with the weight of a feather.
Details – The feathers of the silver beak have high defense and some properties have anti-magic.
———==
“Mr. Child…. Of course!”
Kim Eun-ah frowned as if indignant. If the information written on the hologram is true, Kim Eun-ah, who has anti-magic powers and has a silver beak, is a perfect match. Kim Eun-ah bit her lip.
‘…this.’
Even if the bad news overlapped, it overlapped too much.
The appearance of a gate in such a large city is a rarer probability than being struck by lightning in broad daylight. But the boss who appeared is his own match.
‘…Isn’t it really dangerous?’
thump thump!
The silver beak, which exposed the entire body, faced Kim Eun-ah.
“Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeg
A roar erupted from its huge mouth. Instead of being scared, Kim Eun-ah made up her mind and turned on the electricity.
shred! Pajijijik!
A hunter who came to protect the citizens on behalf of the school. Even if the match was unfavorable, Kim Eun-ah had no intention of backing down.
“If you scream. Do you think I’m scared?”
Shin Yoo-seong was surprised by Kim Eun-ah’s sense of responsibility. Kim Eun-ah chose the safety of the citizens instead of herself in a situation where she could lose her life to the boss.
Something that cannot be done with ordinary courage.
Yoosung Shin recalled the story of King Kwon while looking at Eunah Kim.
[Hmm, a reliable colleague? …Hey. If you teach me how to distinguish like that, you’re a fraudster, so I’ll smash your head.]
[Still, didn’t Master have many good colleagues?]
Kwon Wang asked 7-year-old Shin Yoo-seong how to distinguish a good companion. said this.
[Well… I can tell the difference between a person with an ability.]
The person with an ability that King Gwon said was a ‘Hunter with excellent potential’, to put it mildly.
[please! I want to know!]
7-year-old Shin Yoo-seong asked with her eyes shining. The king scratched his head and said:
[The guy who hates losing more than dying. … Just like you, Yoo-seong.]
Shin Yoo-seong looked at Kim Eun-ah, reflecting on King Kwon’s words.
“Hey, why don’t you attack?”
Anyone could see that Kim Eun-ah was nervous as she shrank like a cat with her fur up. However, only the fingers were leisurely wiggling and provoking the silver beak.
“Are you scared?”
Shin Yoo-seong laughed at the appearance of Kim Eun-ah. Kim Eun-ah, who has a completely different personality, looked similar to herself for a moment.
“Aya. I’ll take care of the boss.”
Shin Yoo-seong walked out with his fist clenched. Kim Eun-ah took a step back.
“uh? really? alone? I’m fine, but… isn’t it a bit dangerous?”
“I am confident. take care of the rest.”
Coincidentally, the boss, Silver Beak, howled loudly to announce the start of the battle.
“Kiyooook!!”
thump thump thump!
As the silver-beaked, massive body charged. Shin Yooseong lowered his posture.
“Keye!”
Right before the body of the running silver beak touches it. Shin Yooseong’s time has stopped. The silver beak was charging at a tremendous speed, but it was too slow in the accelerated Shin Yuseong’s accident.
Yooseong Shin established his movement with accelerated thinking.
‘Avoid the beak approaching your left arm.’
Shin Yuseong’s body rotated.
The silver beak clawing through the air! He bit down and Shin Yuseong clenched his fist with his left arm pulled back.
‘The next thing to aim for is the heart.’
However, it was not possible to know the location of the heart at once. Shin Yoo-seong awakened his senses with his characteristic concentration.
Shin Yoo-seong felt the silver beak’s heartbeat in the now slowed time. All that was left was to vomit everything out in order to pierce the hard feathers.
‘I’ll finish it at once!’
Shin Yuseong’s fist extended toward the silver beak. In the slow time, only Shin Yoo-seong’s fist was freely visible. Throwing
Shin-ryu Chapter 3 Breaking Heaven Strike (破天拳擊)
A fist that has been wielded over tens of thousands of times. There were no mistakes.
Aaaaaaa!!
Time in the world sped up again. Following Shin Yoo-seong’s fist, a blue mana tail formed.
Quaggaagh!
A tremendous roar created by mana waves. Soon after, Shin Yuseong’s fist hit the silver beak.
Paaang!!
An earth-shaking shockwave.
As long as the opponent was a monster, there was no need for Shin Yoo-seong to keep his hands.
Kugoong! thud!
A silver beak fallen on the road.
As the massive body collapsed, dust scattered. A combat method using rigid bodies rather than attributes.
“Wow that… with my bare hands…”
Pure admiration.
Kim Eun-ah looked at Shin Yoo-seong and muttered. I saw it on Jewel Island, but Shin Yoo-seong’s battle was really special.
A monster created by the King of Gwon. Even without the help of characteristics, Shin Yoo-seong, who is powerful, was an irregular that destroyed the common sense of hunters.
“Kee-kiss!”
“Kieek!”
The monsters who had lost their captain howled. The momentum from a while ago was a terrified cry.
Kim Eun-ah put her hand on Shin Yoo-seong’s shoulder.
“It’s embarrassing to take it out against small fish, but…”
Kim Eun-ah smiled at Shin Yoo-seong. As long as Shin Yoo-seong took care of the boss, he didn’t have to show his full potential, but Kim Eun-ah is still a member of Shinsung Group. The family motto of Shinsung emphasized by the chairman, Kim Seok-han, was one.
[Never forget Eun-hye.]
As if it was her turn, Eun-ah Kim took out a blue jewel from her pocket.
“You said you were curious about the skills of rankers earlier, right?”
“ah! After all… sparring?”
When Shin Yoo-seong’s face turned bright, Eun-ah Kim avoided Shin Yoo-seong’s gaze, feeling ashamed.
“That’s not it…”
“Then?”
“Because Adela and I are almost the same in skill?”
Of course, Kim Eun-ah’s claim.
Kim Eun-ah straightened her back and spoke confidently.
“Then I will show you myself.”
Kim Eun-ah now seemed more motivated than ever.
