#Episode 16
Near Exit 3 of Yeokgok Station.
As the weekend approached, Kang Jun-pyo was wandering the streets aimlessly.
“Ha, why is nothing going right these days?”
Still, I was confident that I had the talent to excel at Xenix Academy.
However, as each day passed, his position diminished.
The reason is.
It was because of Cha Min-jun, who was showing unexpected performance in all directions.
Cha Min-jun, the lowest ranked person in Class D.
I had no idea that he was so skilled in archery that he surpassed me.
From the day we first competed for the Xenics ring to our performance at the evaluation at the end of this month.
He couldn’t show anything better than Cha Min-jun.
Moreover, the golem could not be caught even with a crush bow made of hidden piece material.
Cha Min-jun slaughtered such strong golems with a bow he had never seen before.
It is true that we should acknowledge Cha Min-jun, but Kang Jun-pyo, who has strong pride, was not easily convinced.
“I’m making up for it in this request. “This time, I won’t have anything to do with that bastard, so I’ll definitely impress upon you my archery skills!”
No matter what happens at the end-of-month evaluation.
The group that recorded the best grades in class D was group 10.
Kang Jun-pyo was also qualified to receive a request from the association.
Kang Jun-pyo planned to use this request as an opportunity to raise his position again.
“Before that, I need to get the crush bow inspected again. “It feels like durability has decreased a bit recently.”
As it is a client managed by the association.
It was necessary to be fully prepared.
Also, at the end-of-month evaluation, there were parts of the Crush Bow that were damaged by golems here and there.
Kang Jun-pyo visited a repair shop that specializes in repairing only hunters’ weapons.
“After all, it’s the weekend! “Why are people so busy?”
In the crowded crowd, Kang Jun-pyo was on edge.
Eventually, we reached a repair shop located near the exit of Yeokgok Station.
Suddenly, screams rang out from everywhere.
“Kyaahhh-!”
“run! Run faster!”
“It’s a monster!”
“Help me! fat… Please save me~!”
Kang Jun-pyo turned his head in the direction where the screams were coming from.
“… what?!”
Just a little while ago.
The faces of the people walking down the street with happy expressions became stiff.
Yes, no.
Everyone looked flushed and busy taking a step back.
Belt- Belt-
▶Disaster warning message◀
[Regional Safety Headquarters] announces. At 9:56 am, an unknown gate appears near Yeokgok Station! Citizens nearby are requested to evacuate immediately.
“gate?! So suddenly? It’s not even the expected haunting area! why?”
Today, gate appearances can be predicted with modern technology.
Of course, there were gates that suddenly appeared every year, but thanks to the activities of hunters, they were significantly decreasing.
By educating all citizens on how to respond, the death rate gradually decreased.
Therefore, it was rare for a gate to appear in the middle of the city before predicting.
Kang Jun-pyo frowned for a moment.
I saw this as an opportunity.
“Yes, it might actually be an opportunity given to me! It’s clear that the crack management support team will also come along… “What if we can at least make things right by then?!”
Not only does it raise the status of your family.
In preparation for the upcoming Prow Academy transfer exam, I thought that I might be given extra points when filling out the application form.
“Okay, I’ll figure it out!”
Kang Jun-pyo ran towards the opposite direction where people were all running away.
***
Seoul Regional Safety Headquarters.
Team leader Oh Deok-young, who dedicated the weekend and is in charge of crack management here.
He was having a hard time understanding the current situation at Yeokgok Station in real time.
“Oh team leader! We have now received a reply from management.”
“what?”
“uh… that is… … .”
“Don’t hesitate and speak quickly. “Is now the time?!”
“Well, the crack that occurred near Changdong last week has not been resolved yet, so it is difficult to recruit personnel.”
“What, bullshit?! So now, let’s just sit back and watch? “Don’t we have to quickly take care of things first in Bucheon!”
“First of all, I received a reply asking if it would be better to report the situation to the Crack Management Office and ask for help.”
“Where do you have time for that?! “It takes about 30 minutes to deploy on site at the earliest.”
Right now, there were no hunters to deal with the situation near Yeokgok Station.
That’s right too.

This is because a crack was suddenly discovered near Changdong last week, and a large number of hunters working nearby were deployed.
“Uh, what should I do?”
“What should I do?!” “We need to request support from a private guild right away.”
“I’ll try to reply!”
“ha… … ”
Team Leader Oh placed both arms on his waist and sighed.
A crack is also a crack.
In the case of cracks that occur without any prediction, the situation is very urgent.
Unlike regular monsters.
The monsters that suddenly appear through cracks are not only vicious in nature.
There is a high probability that monsters of at least C rank or higher will appear.
Also, most of the unknown monsters appear here.
The destruction law was never easy either.
“Dongsik.”
“Yes, team leader!”
“No matter where you end up, try everything you can to ask for support. Right now, settling things comes first. “If we do this wrong, the entire Bucheon area could disappear as of today.”
“yes! We’ll do our best!
“please… … . People say it’s dangerous… … .”
***
Kang Jun-pyo ran towards Yeokgok Station.
As we got closer and closer to the station, people’s screams became louder.
“Uh, Mom!!!”
“Hye-ryeong, stay there! “Mom will go.”
“mom… mind!!!”
When a girl fell in the middle of the street, the child’s mother stopped running with an urgent voice.
however.
Behind the girl, a huge monster reminiscent of a cobra was opening its mouth.
Kang Jun-pyo couldn’t just watch the scene.
“I’ll finish it in one blow.”
Kang Jun-pyo caught his breath.
It was to bring out a small amount of magical power.
Because the situation was critical, we were unable to gather a large amount of magical power.
In his opinion, it seemed like he could easily overpower that strange-looking cobra with just this much magical power.
“Extreme!”
A skill that maximizes the drawing and further increases the elasticity of the arrow.
Kang Jun-pyo fired his arrow confidently.
Paaaaat-!
“how is it? “Isn’t it painful?!”
The arrow that Kang Jun-pyo shot stuck in the guy’s chin.
Thinking that there was going to be a lot of pain, he smiled in remorse.
Shaaaaaagh-!
However, contrary to Kang Jun-pyo’s thoughts.
The guy’s eyes suddenly changed, and his sharp teeth became even wider.
Shashashashak-!
After that, he rushed towards Kang Jun-pyo.
He looked full of anger for interrupting his meal time.
“Kaaaa!”
Kang Jun-pyo was hit by the guy’s torso and was thrown straight into the wall.
He was seriously injured without even having time to attempt a fall.
“uh… how? It doesn’t take any damage… … . Big! It must have been nailed properly… … . Wow! no way?!”
At that moment, doubt arose about the crush bow I was holding.
Although he had the feeling that its durability had decreased, he had not even thought that the power of the Crush Bow would have decreased.
“Big! “I couldn’t see through that!”
However, my pride did not allow me to be defeated by this guy in one blow.
Even at moments when it is difficult to even control one’s own body.
Kang Jun-pyo stood up resolutely and raised his crush bow.
“I don’t know where the snake came from, but I will definitely kill you with my own hands!”
Even while I was shaking.
Kang Jun-pyo hung several arrows on the string.
Next, I took a deep breath in order to mobilize as much of the magical power I currently possessed.
“Disperse fire!”
Arrows flying high in the sky.
It flew to near the peak, then fell to the ground and stretched towards its target.
Shahaaaa-!
However, it uses its long tongue.
He began to deflect arrows flying at him with flexible tongue movements.
Ting- Ting- Ting-
“Huh!”
For Kang Jun-pyo, he used a technique that was almost his main skill.
I couldn’t even imagine that my opponent would block it so easily.
“No words… Nonsense… … . My scattered fire… “Ugh!”
Limping- Limping-
Maybe it was because of the bruises from earlier, but my legs had already lost some of their strength.
It was difficult to even stand still.
It was now difficult to even properly prepare for battle.
The good news is that
Because Kang Jun-pyo had bought time, the mother and daughter seemed to have taken refuge in the meantime.
I barely managed to defeat that guy… … !
I haven’t even taken the transfer exam yet.
It seemed like he couldn’t escape this snake that was making eye contact with him.
The guy slowly approached Kang Jun-pyo and started sticking out his tongue.
Shashaaaaa-!
“go away! Even if they devour someone like me, I won’t be able to tell! “Get out now!”
However, there is no way he would listen to Kang Jun-pyo.
He only stuck out his tongue more flashily.
Is the term ‘final struggle’ used in times like this?
Kang Jun-pyo grabbed the crush bow that had fallen to the ground again.
“minute… minute… Dispersion!”
Has the magic power been wasted now?
Even when I recited the skill, I could not feel any magical energy flowing through my body.
I have no choice.
The plan was to take out the arrows contained in the tradition and pull a few more shots.
However, even this did not help Kang Jun-pyo.
Paaaaaaaaaa!
“my… “My crush bow!”
It’s broken.
In addition to being broken, fragments of the crush bow fell to the ground.
A crush bow whose durability has reached its full potential.
When the crush bow that was his everything broke, Kang Jun-pyo felt like his world had collapsed.
“done… … .”
Kang Jun-pyo closed his eyes tightly.
Eventually, the guy saw Kang Jun-pyo like that and opened his mouth as wide as possible.
And then it rushed forward with a powerful movement of its tail.
Shashaaaaaak-
“Concentrate fire!!”
Shoo- Shoo- Shoo-
However, something sudden happened.
Just before facing death’s door.
The hand of salvation came to Kang Jun-pyo.
The three arrows suddenly flew at him and he began to howl in pain.
At the same time.
In front of Kang Jun-pyo, a man with a familiar silhouette held up a ‘black bow’ and turned around.
“Luckily it’s not too late. “Now get some rest.”
“car… Cha Minjun! How could you?!”
