The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood

Chapter 38

Tuk! 

Are you okay? W, what should I do? T, there is no recovery medicine! 

Seonwoo Yeon, who safely received Kiryeo, slowly laid him down on the floor. 

At that moment, the man covered in blood opened his eyes and spoke. 

You used your skills.

To bring up such words in a life-threatening situation like this

I told you that you could do it. Why didnt you believe me? 

Seonwoo Yeon quietly burst into tears. 

The reality was different from the recurring nightmares that haunted her every day.

She was able to save someone with this power.

Even in the midst of confusion, that fact somehow remained in her heart. 

Sir, do you have any tools for first aid?

After a while, Seonwoo Yeon wiped her eye corners and took a deep breath.

She thought that all of this happened because she was panicking and that she should take responsibility. 

I, I dont have 

Kim Kiryeo quietly looked at the situation and slowly stood up.

You cant move carelessly! 

Im fine. 

With his characteristic cold stare, he glanced at Seonwoo Yeon once, then adjusted his collar and shook his head 

Could everyone please move aside for a moment? 

Yes? 

Im going to take off my shirt and look at the wound. And I will also use recovery medicine.

Isnt he excessively calm, even though he has a hole in his body?

He was so indifferent that one might think that the pain had weakened his senses.

Arent you going to leave?

Seonwoo Yeon looked at him worriedly and had no choice but to leave. 

Phew~ I almost started my third life.

Of course, he checked his wound, but everything else was a lie.

He immediately drank a potion of magic booster and used a recovery spell to heal Kim Kiryeos body. 

Im fine. Everyone, please come back. Now lets proceed to attack the gate.

Yes? What did you say? 

She cant believe such a big wound disappears all at once. Usually, a medicine with that level of efficacy costs at least several million dollars

No, it would be in the tens of millions of won.

Does F-Class always carry recovery medicine? 

When the adrenaline from the battle subsided, Seonwoo Yeon regained her composure 

At that moment, the doubts that had been forgotten started to slowly come back to mind. 

The basic principle of the gate is, Once you defeat the boss, the exit appears. I think we need to catch the boss here first. 

But Kim Kiryeo didnt give her time to think. 

After the opponent used their skill once, they had to push through to the bosss room before that sensation disappeared.  

Dont worry. Ill help you as much as I can. 

For reference, this wasnt a bluff. 

After a while, following the appraiser Kiryeos instructions, they headed towards the southern path of the dungeon

Kiryeo comforted the tense Seonwoo Yeon and slowly practiced the skill with her.

Youre doing great.

She originally despised her own abilities.  

The image of the moment she lost her family was so intensely stuck in her mind, and of all things, she awakened with the same attributes as her enemy, the monster. 

Even these days, when the wind blows strongly, her breath stops, and her hands and feet tremble. 

Seonwoo Yeon-ssi. This is your weapon. Instead of being swung, swing it.

Strangely enough, her skills came out well today while she quietly listened to his advice from her side. 

Look! What did I say? I told you that you could do it. 

As Kiryeo expected, Seonwoo Yeons innate power was powerful.

It wasnt long before she was able to defeat all of the small monsters at this gate.

Before they knew it, they were left with only one boss monster.

We can leave now?

From the back, the student who was missing expresses a hopeful gaze filled with anticipation.

Although Seonwoo Yeon tried to say something positive, acknowledging it as obvious, she felt choked up and unable to speak.

Im scared.

Despite being a precious B-class awakened person, she was kept in the office and in charge of paperwork. 

Of course, she doesnt have any experience attacking the gate. 

However, suddenly, she cant believe she has to defeat a boss monster of the same level

Seonwoo Yeon-ssi, lets take a break. 

Kim Kiryeo, who was watching this, suddenly suggests taking a break. 

Yes? No, Hunters. The boss monster is right in front of us 

It would be good to take a brief break here for maintenance. 

Even if its maintenance time, theres nothing to do anyway. 

Seonwoo Yeon was a salaried employee belonging to the association. 

What could she do with her hands empty and not a single expensive piece of equipment?

Hunter Seonwoo Yeon, as expected, you cant do it too? 

After some time, he approached Seonwoo Yeon, who was squatting in the corner.

Then he spoke in a low voice that couldnt be heard by the police and the missing people. 

Youre not the one at fault. 

Yes? 

Its a trauma thats completely understandable. Honestly, the one who is trying to force you to stand up is the bad one. 

Yeah 

Im sorry about earlier. Because it was a matter of life and death, the words were a bit harsh. Yeah. Its not Seonwoo Yeons fault. 

The problem is the terrorist punk who dropped us here.

His tone was so smooth that she almost didnt even notice he was swearing.

However, considering the situations, please stay strong once more. 

He didnt want to make it obvious. Is this anxiety visible in Kiryeos eyes?

Once you survive this, you will be able to survive any gate.

After hearing his encouragement, Seonwoo Yeon pondered for a moment and then stood up.

She was determined.

Ive finished resting. Lets enter the boss room.

After hearing those words, Kiryeo took a step ahead and headed towards the iron gate. 

-Grrrrr

The low growl of a beast could be heard from outside the slightly open iron door. 

Its pretty big. Its about 3m tall.

3m?

I dont really see any weaknesses. There is no choice but to suppress it with firepower

Seonwoo Yeon swallowed her dry saliva as she entered the bosss territory. 

Following the faint light of a magical stone with her eyes, she saw the leader in the distance.

The form that roams the cave on all fours resembles a lion.

Its face looked hideous, resembling the twisted form of a half-melted black candle.

Whoo. 

Seonwoo Yeon took a deep breath and began the battle. 

Like the cautious hunter, the monster from another realm turned around and struck its head. 

Whoosh. The sound of strong wind blowing echoes.

-Growl!

However, it was shallow.

The skill Seonwoo Yeon activated only managed to slice off a bit of the monsters flesh, failing to deliver a fatal blow.

Dodge to the right!

The boss opened its mouth wide and exhaled a rough breath.

Kiryeo, who knew the scope of the magic in advance, gave instructions.

Ugh!

Soon, the entire cave was covered in cold ice, and Seonwoo Yeon, who barely avoided it, regained her balance and aimed her skill again. 

Please die!

There are strong waves of wind.

Even so, she could hardly take her opponents life.

Even with the support of an outstanding appraiser,  B-Class gate was still too much for a single attacker.

Heuk, heuk!

Before she knew it, she was out of breath.

The dropping mana inside the body was evidence.

Just a little more!

Of course, there were outcomes on this side as well.

After a fierce battle that continued, the boss also received a heavy blow and was on the verge of collapse.

I can kill it!

But then.

The monster, being on the verge of death, showed a new pattern.

-Kyaaaak!

Huh?

Now that things are like this, is he thinking of taking her companion with him?

Because he suddenly turned his head and rushed towards the appraiser who was hiding in the corner of the boss room.

No! Come back!

Seonwoo Yeon, who was surprised, attacked without thinking about how much energy she still had. 

However, the black creature targeted Kiryeo, not caring even if its flesh was torn off.

Look at me!

It is impossible to avoid the rushing B-Class monsters with the physical abilities of an F-Class hunter. 

Seonwoo Yeon, who had extraordinary vision, was able to sense it instinctively.

Shes late.

Ack!

Did Kiryeo also realize this? He stopped the meaningless running and stood upright in his place.

Soon, sharp fangs were revealed.

Kim Kiryeo stood motionless in the shadow made by the beasts palate, watching Seonwoo Yeon quietly.

Kiryeo-ssi!

If she loses someone like this again in front of her eyes, she will completely break down.

Is that why this scene happened?

At that moment.

Seonwoo Yeon couldnt believe the scene that unfolded.

-Srankk!

This is because the moment the attack touched Kiryeos body, the monsters teeth were shattered into pieces.

.!

Like an eggshell hitting a rock.

The sturdy weapon that the boss was boasting about crumbled into nothing. 

Kim Kiryeo didnt even get a scratch from the boss monsters attacks. 

Rather, as if this situation were expected, he calmly watched the scattering pieces. 

The mans scream then came back.

Dont sit still and use your skills!

Ah, yes? Y, yeah. 

When the boss, who had lost his teeth, was writhing in pain.

Seonwoo Yeon gathered her remaining magic power and summoned a sharp, piercing wind

Slash.

Eventually, the boss monsters head falls off.

The blue light they had been waiting for appears in front of them.

-Wuuung

As the usual rules. 

T, the gate is open.

There is an exit!

The police officer, who was watching the situation behind the iron gate, shouted loudly.

The missing people who were hiding were also running to the gate one by one, but only Seonwoo Yeon was staring blankly in a certain direction. 

Why do you look at me like that? The passage was open. Lets get out quickly.

Hunter Kim Kiryeo. 

He walks this way with a shameless look on his face. 

Im so glad I kept my bracelet in my pocket.

The reason hes fine is naturally thanks to the EX-Class gate reward, the Twin Guardian Angels. 

I can only use it twice, so I wanted to save it as much as possible.

In fact, if the earlier blow had been a direct hit, it would have resulted in 100% instant death.

Kiryeo also used the magic tool he had saved because he knew this. 

If it is known that I have the bracelet, it could lure more robbers. I have to hide it well this time.

Phew! 

Kiryeo hid the item deep in his pocket and headed towards the gate.

You 

However, for Seonwoo Yeon, who doesnt know the full story of the incident

Theres nothing more absurd than that. 

Officer Cha! Our first team has just returned from the gate. Uh, t, this location is Jingwan-dong 

Hng, mom.

Ah, were protecting the missing students as well!

While the police called for support from their colleagues. 

Seonwoo Yeon looked at Kiryeo, who was fixing up his messy clothes, with angry eyes.

 This punk!

She wanted to grab him by the collar if she could 

No, doesnt this point make her feel like shes been wronged?

Seonwoo Yeon thought that the bosss broken tooth was an accident due to the difference in magical density

Because Kim Kiryeo didnt look like he was wearing any equipment from the outside. 

In that case, the conclusion is that the opponent has been hiding a power that wouldnt even be scratched by B-Class. 

And thats just to make me use my skills!

That man not only deliberately got injured but also led the B-Class hunter to use her skill throughout the dungeon 

That means his intentions are gradually becoming clear.

He did such crazy things to bring out his opponents strength.

But how can one be so happy about this?

Hey! 

Yes? 

In the end, Seonwoo Yeon couldnt bear it anymore and argued. 

I get what you mean, but I will never thank you for something like this. No, are you crazy? Why on earth is this! 

Then Kim Kiryeo tilted his head. 

What do you mean? Im the one whos thankful, but why are you thankful?

Kiryeo said it as if it were natural.

Seonwoo Yeon-ssi, you saved us. 

Seonwoo Yeon tried to retort but couldnt open her mouth due to his continued actions. 

A man named Kim Kiryeo.

Gradually, he furrowed his forehead or made a slight expression around his eyes, expressing a hint of emotion. 

I survived thanks to you.

Was he a person who could express his emotions?

He spoke with a faint smile.

Thank you so much.

As he began, the missing people and police officers around her also expressed their gratitude one by one.

Thats right! If it werent for Seonwoo Yeon-ssi, we would have been! 

Thank you, Hunter-nim! 

Closing the gate for the first time in her life. 

And for the first time, thanks for saving lives.

Seonwoo Yeons heart was pounding.

. 

Why did Kim Kiryeo do such a thing to make her use her skills? 

Why do you say thank you to me?

What does he gain from doing that? 

I really, really dont know what youre thinking

She cant figure out the true intentions of that awakened person.

Soon, she closed her mouth with a strange expression.

It was five minutes later that her fellow police officers arrived.
