Chapter 42
Episode 42
The Metro Tower soars toward the sky.
In this place, a symbol of Metro City, the Association was managing the Hunters’ missions.
‘...This is the Metro Tower.’
Let Shin Yoo-seong, wearing Gaon’s school uniform, enter. A woman waiting in the lobby waved.
“hi! here it is! here!”
lively laughter.
The woman, dressed in a neat interview suit, treated Shin Yoo-seong kindly.
“Wow~ To be in charge of patrolling the city at such a young age. Do you have good grades? Are you really unique? Oh right, I should start with my introduction!”
The excited woman suddenly pointed at her name tag.
[Level 3 Hunter Yu Aeri]
As an active duty hunter, he was a fairly skilled hunter who could handle even level 3 bosses by himself.
“This is Shin Yoo-seong, who has been entrusted with the request.”
Yoo Ae-ri smiled at Shin Yu-seong’s formal greeting.
“It’s not official, it’s an extracurricular activity, so there’s no need to call it that hard. Be friendly~ Just call me noona.”
Having said that, Yu Ae-ri looked at Shin Yoo-seong with a worried expression.
“...But to leave it to the students? Are you worried about this young? It’s so cute, but when the villain appears! Aren’t you going to catch me?”
Her thoughts were wild. Shin Yoo-seong is a talented person who has already passed level 4 at the age of a student. She was much stronger than active duty member Yu Aeri.
However, Yu Ae-ri, unaware of the fact, made a lot of noise with an excited face.
“Jung~ If you’re scared, would you like me to stick by your side? Even if I look like this, I can easily defeat a level 3 boss by myself.”
To Yoo Ae-ri, Shin Yoo-seong is a junior like a sprout that he met after a long time away from a tough mission. Yu Aeri was overly kind.
‘...a level 3 boss?’
However, Yuseong Shin was puzzled by Yu Ae-ri’s words. Yu Ae-ri’s words were very different from what King Gwon had told her.
[Yoo Seong-ah is on active duty! I have to defeat the level 5 boss alone. From then on, you have to listen to the hunter!]
In front of Shin Yoo-seong, Yu Ae-ri was only making a saga of a 3rd-class boss.
‘As expected... Master’s standards are...’
When Shin Yoo-seong was immersed in thoughts while thinking of King Kwon, Ae-ri Yu clapped with applause.
“oh! right! If you’re a Gaon student, you’ve caught monsters in the exam, right? How far did you hold it? 2nd grade? omg! Maybe level 3?”
Let’s ask a question with a curious face. Shin Yooseong answered briefly.
“It’s a 4th level boss.”
“...huh?”
Yu Aeri is embarrassed by the unexpected answer.
“Level 4? Are you kidding me?”
Yu Ae-Ri stuttered and asked Shin Yoo-Sung a shy smile. I searched Shin Yoo-seong’s name in my pocket.
Dig!
Shin Yoo-seong, emerging as a hologram, plays a variety of activities. Among them, there was a history of defeating the 4th grade boss, Dyurahan and Lich.
“Uh uh....”
Yu Aeri looked at the hologram with a blank face. Then, with a blushing face, he muttered a little.
“Ugh, forget everything...”
* * *
Metro Tower’s General Information Office.
After 10 minutes of patrol training, Yu Ae-ri spoke in a calmer voice.
“...Really forget about my ugliness earlier. I must have been so excited to meet the students after a long time.”
Instead of answering, Shin Yoo-seong smiled lightly. Yu Ae-ri made an expression of “Ugh”.
“...You look so cute, but you’re saying you’re going to beat a level 4 boss? After all, you can’t tell strength from the outside.”
“Is your education over?”
“Okay, it’s okay to go now. Also tell the late partner.”
After breaking up with Yu Ae-ri, Shin Yoo-seong walked out of the Metro Tower slowly.
As expected, a high-end limousine was already waiting at the entrance of the Metro Tower.
Surprised Kim Eun-ah’s reaction.
However, Shin Yoo-seong was sincere.
“I want to check the skills of the rankers before I compete.”
Seeing Shin Yoo-seong’s straight eyes, Kim Eun-ah swallowed dry saliva.
‘Suddenly... what sparring? Of course, I won’t lose to an F-ranker...’
Kim Eun-ah looked at Shin Yoo-seong’s body again. A well-proportioned, muscular body.
‘It seems like a style that bumps into physical abilities. I can feel the mana quite a bit...’
It’s a contradiction to Kim Eun-ah, who can’t control the lightning in detail. Shin Yoo-seong, seen by Kim Eun-ah, seemed too strong to be an F-class.
‘Already ranked 3rd...’
Kim Eun-ah looked calm on the outside, but cold sweat broke out on her back and her head was spinning.
What if.
What if you lose because of the slim chance of being struck by lightning on a sunny day?
Let your thoughts reach there. Kim Eun-ah turned her head to the window to avoid Shin Yoo-seong’s gaze.
‘...What are you going to do, Ai? Just stick around?’
Eunah Kim, who has a strong sense of pride, never admitted that she was scared. Kim Eun-ah, who was so worried, came up with an appropriate reason for not being able to fight with Shin Yoo-sung.
“Hey, where is the next schedule after off-campus activities?”
Kim Eun-ah calls the bodyguard as if Shin Yoo-seong wants to hear it.
“Metro Hospital.”
“okay? Then you won’t be able to fight.”
Kim Eun-ah nodded with a proud face. The limousine arrived at the patrol area and stopped.
Soon after, let the driver open the door of the limousine. Kim Eun-ah looked at Shin Yoo-seong and smiled.
“If you understand, give up. Because I am busy.”
Two bodyguards already waiting outside the limousine holding parasols. Kim Eun-ah took sunglasses out of her pocket and put them on, then walked out of the limousine proudly.
Kim Eun-ah looked at the bodyguard with a disapproving expression, and then got annoyed.
“hey. I’m going on patrol, where are you going to follow me? cumbersome.”
However, despite Kim Eun-ah’s words, the bodyguard expressed disapproval. If Kim Eun-ah was hurt, the bodyguards could not handle the wrath of Kim Seok-han, the chairman of Shinsung Group.
“Ha but...”
“But what?”
However, Kim Eun-ah’s intention was firm.
“Are you ignoring my skills?”
Tingling!
Static electricity rose from the annoyed Kim Eun-ah. Once Kim Eun-ah started to be stubborn, no one in Shinsung Group could stop her.
“...All right.”
The bodyguard eventually leaves.
Shin Yoo-seong looked at Kim Eun-ah.
‘...Really picky.’
It didn’t matter because she was actually kind to herself, but when she saw Shin Yoo-seong and Kim Eun-ah, she remembered the story King Kwon told her.
[Even when I’m on active duty! There were young guys who didn’t know the subject and messed around.]
A hunter who ran on the road to success, winning victories for each mission he was entrusted with. Mind’s eye type. Climbing the tower, he fearlessly quarreled with King Kwon.
[Is this old man the party leader? I can’t admit it!]
Young blood in his twenties.
Even Shin Yoo-seong couldn’t hold back his curiosity when he first heard that he was fighting against Kwon Wang, the strongest hunter in Korea.
[So what did you do?]
King Gwon cleared his ears and said to Shin Yoo-seong, who was curious.
[I’m going to die. Respect for others comes only when it’s right.]
A story that really sends chills down your spine.
“Hey, what are you bruising on? let’s go.”
Yooseong Shin smiled as he watched Kim Eun-ah flicking his index finger.
‘...Eunah must never meet Master.’
