#78. Hunter Ranking No. 1 VS Yu Dam-deok (2)
Near Sokcho on the east coast.
For some reason, the automobile-only road was filled with people walking.
“Suddenly we have to evacuate. “What on earth is going on?”
“Why did a monster wave explode so loudly at the gate that appeared last time?”
“Ugh, I should have blocked it normally. “I heard that the skills of hunters these days are not very good.”
It was a peaceful weekend morning.
That is, until a siren sounds out of nowhere.
The kid who was listening to the residents’ grumbles glanced back and his eyes sparkled.
“Wow, Mom! Look over there! Black sparks and white ice are flying from the mountain!”
People’s eyes moved to follow the child’s fingers.
Halfway up Seoraksan Mountain. Although it was quite far away, the frighteningly waving black flames and sharp ice rising at every moment were clearly visible.
Kiiing! Quadddd!
Grumble! Quang!
The little boy’s eyes lit up as if he was watching a spectacular performance.
“Wow, it’s really cool! But at school they said fire and ice can’t coexist… “Mom, what’s wrong with that?”
At the child’s innocent question, the adults were only swallowing their dry saliva.
“hey… Did I say earlier that hunters’ skills are dead these days?”
“… It did. “I guess I was worried for no reason.”
The men watched in fascination as the flames and ice appeared and disappeared.
“But was there a hunter with that level of skill in Gangwon-do? ?”
“That’s right. Who on earth… .”
“Egg, what changes if you look at me like that? Let’s move forward quickly!”
The men behind them had to shyly look away as the child’s mother scolded them.
Meanwhile, on the slopes of Seorak Mountain, fireworks and ice were repeatedly appearing and disappearing in ever more splendid ways.

Kiiing!
As soon as Damdeok’s left hand touched, the tree-type monster froze.
The monster was so large that the ice soared high into the sky before stopping.
Damn it!
Damdeok swung his sword at the huge ice that had just formed.
Light horizontal cut.
Squeak! Hehehehe. Coo!
Between the ice that had been split in two, the flame of black flame rose without going out.
The tree-type monsters that were approaching with angry faces hesitated and retreated.
“Hmm.”
Damdeok straightened the sword with its black flame fluttering.
A neatly renewed profile appeared before my eyes.
[Yoo Dam-deok (human)]
[Occupation: Intermediate God]
[Symbol: Sword God]
[Holy Power: 242,423]
[Powers: Unity of Sword and Body, Self-Healing, Call of God]
[Talent: Swordsmanship (SS), martial arts (SS), shooting (SS)]
[Skills: Sword and Body Unity (SSS), Black and White Moon (SSS), Wave Slash (SS), Intangible Sword Technique (SS), Ice Hammer Punch (S+), Glacier Sunder (S), Wind Rush (A+), Dwarf Hammer Punch ( A), Flame Slash (A), Ice Fighting (B), Flame Handling (C), Howling (M)]
[Title: The one who tamed Cerberus]
[Attribute: Opening Decree]
‘It’s much easier to see.’
The profile window is noticeably cleaner than before.
These were all achievements achieved through training with ice giants and ice dwarves in Niflheim.
‘It seems that the union of swords and bodies was created by combining other miscellaneous powers.’
Unity of swords and bodies.
This power, which arose after becoming a mid-level god, literally combined miscellaneous powers such as intuition, strong body, sword energy, eye vision, etc. into one, and was literally the power that encompassed all of the Sword God’s abilities.
One thing that was surprising was that a new skill called Sword and Body Unity, as its name suggests, was also created.
[Sword and Body Unity (SSS)]
Description: A skill that combines all of the swordsman’s senses. A skill that only a swordsman can possess, mastering not only sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste, but also the sixth sense, which is the realm of intuition.
‘Battle concentration, counterattack series, and simple cutting series skills are all integrated into this skill.’
What’s surprising is that this skill’s level is SSS level.
‘I can’t believe this crazy level actually existed.’
I thought SS grade was Master grade, but it wasn’t.
“Keukeu, after all, people need to look broadly and learn.”
It was a great tool for seeing and learning about the diverse world called Albania of the Gods.
“good. “I really like the current profile.”
As I was handling both ice attribute mana and black flame attribute mana at the same time, it felt like the identities of the skills that had been in the works were being established one by one.
‘Ice and fire… .’
Isn’t that a pretty cool combination?
It’s so spicy and good, right?
“Good. “It will only continue like this from now on.”

Damdeok, whose mouth was curled up in his ear, quickly looked at the monsters in front of him.
“I’m sorry, but you guys will have to be the test subjects for my new skills. “This isn’t fully in my hands yet.”
– Really?
– Grrr?
The tree-type monsters noticed and began to slowly retreat.
Damdeok grinned and aimed his sword right away.
“I know that? “The power of the Triple S level is beyond imagination?”
[I am casting the
A terrifying half-moon shaped black aura spewed out from Damdeok’s sword.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwaa!!
An aura that sweeps everything in front of it.
The tree-type monsters that were there disappeared as if evaporating in an instant. Only black scorched marks remain on the dirt floor… .
The tree-type monsters that were crawling out of the gate stopped moving for an instant as soon as they saw the scene.
“Hey, why isn’t everyone coming out? Let’s proceed quickly. “I have to finish it before the sun sets~”
Damdeok twirled the tip of his sword and hummed.
“If you don’t come out, we’ll attack~ Clap clap clap clap~”
Damdeok, who was humming, moved his body quickly.
The monsters were busy running away, and Damdeok started running wild like a fish out of water.
Adele Sharon, who was sitting on a rock watching the scene, muttered bluntly.
“I’m so excited. I’m excited. When I was testing fire magic earlier, you said that was enough, so don’t overdo it?!”
Ju Soo-yul, sitting next to me, chuckled.
“I don’t think I told you not to overdo it, right? “I just told him to stop.”
Adele Sharon pouted.
“Even if he didn’t say it in words, I could feel it in his eyes.”
Ju Soo-yul let out a small laugh at Adele Sharon’s expression of genuine disappointment.
“okay. I understand. “I achieved the 6th circle in a short period of time, so it was worth going on a rampage.”
Adele Sharon’s expression brightened at Ju Soo-yul’s positive answer.
“right? To be honest, I’ve heard about the efficacy of Dragon Heart, but I didn’t know it was this bad?”
Bingryong captured by Thor.
It was a truly free dragon heart.
But I never would have guessed that the effect would be powerful enough to increase mana by thousands of percent.
“And as a bonus, I don’t get cold at all.”
I said it was good, but it was Adele Sharon that I never dreamed would be this good.
“Well, even in Atla, Dragon Heart was an elixir that only existed in legends. Besides, it wasn’t just me, that guy Baekgureum also created a 1st Circle Auror, right? “That big ice giant said it would take three years.”
The Auror training period was achieved dozens of times faster than Ettin had originally expected.
Of course, that was also purely thanks to the power of Dragon Heart.
“Hehehe! “They cut it very well!”
Baekgureum chopping down a rock-type monster on the other side of Damdeok.
His sword was wrapped in a shimmering blue aura.
“Hey! Haaap!”
When White Cloud swung his aura-covered sword, the rock monsters were sliced like tofu.
The power of the sword without even activating the skill has become as strong as activating a normal A-level skill.
“… “I think I finally have the basics in place.”
Adele Sharon responds to Ju Soo-yul’s happy murmur, huh? I tilted my head and looked.
Sooyul just smiled.
“Nothing. Anyway, no one has grown as dramatically as you. You can be happy as much as you like this time. Adele.”
Adele Sharon shrugged her shoulders with a proud expression at Jo Soo-yul’s sincere praise, which is rarely heard.
“what. Soyul is you. You did this on purpose to make this girl’s heart flutter?! Hahaha! “Well, she’s a pretty amazing person!”
Adele Sharon suddenly got excited and jumped up! I got up from my seat.
“This is not the time. How can we achieve the 7th circle at this point?!”
“No, take it easy… .”
Before Adele Sharon could finish her sentence, she jumped off the rock.
Then, it instantly burned the spider-type monster that had just escaped from the gate.
Grumble!
“Kyahaha! Okay, this is the feeling! “This is what it feels like!”
Ju Soo-yul quietly looked at the scene.
Adele Sharon quickly became a 6th circle wizard.
Damdeok was able to handle the 4th circle auror and attribute mana.
Although he is a 1st circle auror, he is much stronger than before.
At the same time as the third guardian was subjugated, it was as if everyone had grown by one level, or rather several levels.
Adele Sharon was praised earlier, but Damdeok’s growth in particular was noticeably different.
‘This life is made of ice and black salt…’ .’
In my last life, I failed with light and wind attribute mana, so I think this combination will definitely come out in this life.
‘If you let them choose any attribute naturally, they will grow faster.’
It didn’t matter what attribute Damdeok chose.
‘What’s clear is that if I stay strong like this, I really think I’ll have a chance at winning in this life.’
Ju Soo-yul nodded quietly.
Adele Sharon, who was performing fire magic as if she was dancing in front of me, suddenly swept her stomach and returned helplessly.
“ha. “I’m really hungry so I can’t eat.”
“Are you hungry already?”
“It’s already, Soyul. “I came here and didn’t eat anything?”
Adele Sharon’s eyes looked earnest as she said that, as if she wanted something.
“… “Why?”
Adele Sharon’s eyes began to shine even brighter at Ju Soo-yul’s chic answer.
“Should we go eat something?”
“no.”
Adele Sharon screamed at Ju Soo-yul’s pumpkin-like answer.
“why!!”
“Seoraksan Mountain is one of the few national parks in Korea. No matter how much it was a gate raid, we came in without official permission. If you keep talking like this, the Hunter Inspection Bureau may find fault with you. “I need to finish it quickly before then.”
Adele Sharon looked dumbfounded.
Did you get permission to come in in the first place?
Who stopped the person who suddenly rushed to test his skills?
“… “What difference does it make if we keep standing here?”
“I have to use recovery skills from time to time to get it back.”
The fairy power,
Adele Sharon grumbled as she looked at the light flickering in light green pastel tones.
“The inspection bureau is a mess. What kind of crazy people could capture those two? never! It’s absolutely impossible! And you can restore it to its original state after destroying the gate.”
Ju Soo-yul thought about those words for a moment.
After listening to it, I found that to be true.
In Korea, where the highest hunter is an 8-star hunter, Damdeok was already a 7-star hunter and was under the protection of the Sangun guild.
Moreover, isn’t Baek Gu-reum a superstar who is called a swordsman genius in the East and a talent that Iris cherishes?
‘but… I don’t think there will be any problem.’
To be honest, after the gate destruction incident and the Incheon Airport ghost gate, the suppression of gates across the country was implicitly entrusted to Damdeok.
It is highly unlikely that a real report will come in, and even if a real report does come in… .
‘What can I do? ‘With all my strength, I wouldn’t be able to lay a finger on those guys.’
Even if Baekgureum was like that, Damdeok’s current power was already far beyond the human realm.
After finishing his thoughts, Jooyul looked at Adele Sharon.
“What do you want to eat?”
“huh? ah! Umm… okay! After all, it’s meat! meat! meat!”
As Adele Sharon said that, drool flowed from the corner of her mouth.
“… Wipe off the spit. let’s go.”
“Oh yeah!”
An excited Adele Sharon said, giving Ju Soo-yul her shoulder.
“It’s been a while since we’ve had a chat with the girls, shall we?”
Ju Soo-yul glanced back at Damdeok and Baek Gureum, then quickly looked away.
‘I’m not a child, so there’s something wrong with me.’
Just like that, Adele Sharon and Ju Soo-yul slowly disappeared down Mt. Seorak.

Members of the 13th Unit of the Hunter Inspection Bureau, dressed in dark blue uniforms, were lined up fully armed.
The bespectacled man standing in front took out a piece of paper from his pocket and began to recite it one after another.
“Hmm. Mr. Yu Dam-deok. You have been designated as a level 1 alert due to monsterization. As of this time, your personal affairs are under the control of our Hunter Inspection Bureau, and we hereby declare that you will be placed under emergency protection procedures from now on. This warrant was issued directly by the Hunter Management Department of the Seoul District Court and is valid for approximately one month from now. and… .”
The man lifted his glasses with his middle finger and looked around.
A forest that has frozen, thawed, and burned, and has become a complete devastation.
Na Kyung-soo, the executive officer of the Inspection Bureau, cleared his throat with an uncomfortable expression.
“… And since you carried out the gate raid without permission and even damaged the national park, you should be punished separately for that.”
Damdeok lifted his sword to his shoulder with a shocked expression.
“Hunter Inspection Bureau?”
It was certainly against the law to crack down on the gate without permission, but it was not a serious enough matter to require the Inspector General’s unit to be dispatched.
‘Turn into a monster? Why turn into a monster? And when they tell me to manage all the gates across the country… No, I don’t know if Sokcho City, which has direct jurisdiction, protests. Why did the inspection bureau come forward out of nowhere?’
Damdeok frowned.
It was as if he had parked carelessly in the parking lot of his own restaurant and was told he would have to go to jail.
“… “I guess there really isn’t much to do at the Inspection Bureau these days?”
Damdeok, who spoke crookedly, was not looking at Executor Na Kyung-soo.
A silver-haired man standing next to him.
‘I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere… .’
The aura it gave off was unusual.
If it were a unit under the direct control of the Inspection Bureau, it would have been composed of somewhat capable hunters, but the presence of the unit, which seemed to number about twenty, was all overwhelmed by that silver-haired man.
‘It’s an energy that overwhelms all the surroundings… .’
It seems like he really wanted to capture me.
“… “It’s difficult.”
“Brother, let’s just sweep it all away. What does the Inspector General… ! “Since when have gate-related laws been so strict?”
Baekgureum suddenly approached and said sarcastically.
At the sight of the white clouds shaking, Executor Na Kyung-soo slowly fell back.
It seems that the image of Baekreum’s asshole days is still valid.
“… “As I heard, you are arrogant.”
The silver-haired man, Leo Lux, pulled out the sword hanging behind his back.
“Today you will see how wide the world is.”
