Episode 138: The plot
It was actually the first time I was properly hit by Kim Do-jun’s eye candy.
It was so intense, and I had seen it so well that a white afterimage remained in my eyes and I couldn’t see properly. Naturally, there was no way I could aim the gun properly.
Furthermore, the swordsmanship used by Kim Do-jun is light and nimble, focusing on quick swordsmanship. In order to properly avoid threats, it was important to see and dodge them in an instant.
‘You have to shoot even if your aim isn’t perfect because you can’t see it properly.’
Because if things continued like this, I could really get treated unfairly by Kim Do-jun.
Oh my. That would be the worst situation I would ever want to think about. If it happens to you once, wouldn’t you be worried about it for the rest of your life?
But… … of course, it’s not like I had no thoughts.
“Keu-keu… Where are you shooting at? Even the best Lee Chang-hyun is helpless in front of me!”
Yeah, it’s obvious that in this situation, it’s impossible to properly aim at Kim Do-jun, who moves quickly. No matter how much I try.
but.
[Full Bloom – Talent Blossom: Legendary Sniper [Guided Shot (Medium)]
For me, one of the skills that changed as I rose through the ranks this time was ‘Guided Shot’.
Taang!
I applied strong mana to the bullet that had already been fired from the pistol and left my hand.
When I released mana so strongly, something amazing happened.
‘No, this must be familiar.’
It was as if the bullet was connected to some part of my body, like the tip of my fingers, and I was able to move it consciously.
[Full Bloom – Talent Blossom: Legendary Sniper] In this case, it was an ability that I had once before returning. So, I was much more familiar with it in this life than with other abilities.
A familiar feeling that I have endured and longed to find.
The moment I felt that sensation again, the next step was not difficult. The bullet, which had flown in a somewhat strange direction because I hadn’t aimed the gun accurately, made a large turn and headed back toward Kim Do-jun.
I still have the afterimages from the eye-blinking, but…
The guy who thought he had seized the opportunity by dodging the gun that had been fired once. Kim Do-jun was running straight towards me rather than making complex movements.
Of course, the location is right in front of me.
Pishuk -.
“Ugh… … What is this… …?”
Kim Do-jun, who was about to swing his sword right in front of me, was shot with his arm raised high and fell.
“I’m one of the people who’s been by your side the longest, did you think that kind of eye candy would work?”
Of course, it almost worked. No, I’ve never faced an enemy before, and I didn’t bring sunglasses…
But isn’t it true that it didn’t work?
“Go to the waiting room and watch me in action~.”
Meanwhile, Kim Do-jun was eliminated and his body disappeared.
***
Meanwhile, there were people watching PER’s game from outside. Since Chairman Lee Geun-taek did not reserve a private room, anyone who wanted to watch could do so at the Hunter Union Training Center.
The person watching was none other than Jo Yeon-hwa.
‘I had no intention of watching, but I never thought Chairman Lee Geun-taek would be playing with the PER guys in a place like this… … .’
I happened to come to practice, and I came in after discovering the team I was interested in and Lee Geun-taek was there.
Well, besides, there’s also Ryu Jae-jun, who is a close friend of PER.
‘By the way, I really thought I’d be put on the list for the first division promotion match… … .’
Although Lee Chang-hyun made a bold statement at the party, I thought it was impossible with his current abilities.
I realized that I shouldn’t judge whether I will succeed or fail before doing something.
I watched the game while thinking about all sorts of things.
‘Are the rules similar to Hunter Survival…?’
It’s okay. But then I thought, wouldn’t Chairman Lee Geun-taek sweep it all away? …
‘No, that ability close to ‘future vision’ that guy showed last time… … If that’s the case, maybe he ran a lot of simulations of fighting Chairman Lee Geun-taek… … .’
My head was complicated.
Meanwhile, something truly unexpected happened during the game. Surprisingly, Lee Chang-hyun and Kim Do-jun from the same team.
Yeah, I got hit directly by that guy known as the Snowball Villain.
Jo Yeon-hwa was shocked when she saw that scene, but soon this thought occurred to her.
‘What the heck, did he experience something like that?’
Was it because he let his guard down because he had never been hit before since he was on the same team? Who would have thought that Jo Yeon-hwa would be so defenseless against that guy’s signature move that he knew so well?
Are you sure you really have ‘future vision’-like abilities?
At the same time, I thought that it would be fatal to Lee Chang-hyun, who was a sniper and a long-range dealer, and that he could be hit by it.
I don’t know about blind inspectors, but blind snipers don’t exist in this world.
And of course, the guy wasn’t shooting with his usual overwhelming precision, and was firing his pistol in random places.
‘Really… … Is this the end?’
While Jo Yeon-hwa frowns, and at the moment when Kim Do-jun raises his sword high and is about to finish off Lee Chang-hyun.
Something pierced through Kim Do-jun. It was Kim Do-jun who fell.
“!??!??!?”
Jo Yeon-hwa frowned strangely, as if she was dumbfounded.
What happened?
And because I couldn’t understand it at all, I couldn’t help but be shocked when I watched the video again and confirmed what killed Kim Do-jun.
‘The bullet’s trajectory… …was curved?’
It wasn’t even slightly bent, it was completely off-track and after a few seconds it turned 180 degrees and came back like a boomerang.
Does this make scientific sense?
Of course, there are still many things that have not been exactly revealed, such as the relics and the mechanism by which hunters use their superpowers…
‘But this isn’t it… … .’
If you shoot like that and it hits, something like a sword won’t be useful.

Even if the opponent deploys a mana shield in front, if the bullet turns to the side and hits from behind like it did now, it will be the end.
A situation beyond common sense. Then, there was only one thing I could think of.
‘Did you gain a new ability…?’
It was possible that a new superpower had just blossomed. However, there were already quite a few abilities known to exist in the guy, so what about that… ?
Jo Yeon-hwa thought once again that Lee Chang-hyun might have the potential to rise much higher than she had thought.
Despite the fact that I already thought he had the potential to become one of the best single players in Korea.
***
Meanwhile, in this game with Lee Geun-taek, everyone in Hunter Survival is thinking about mixing hands with Lee Geun-taek, but there are team members who don’t think so.
It was Lee Yeon-ju and Yoon Han-gyeol.
The two met as soon as the match started. Yoon Han-gyeol knew that Lee Yeon-ju was not in a fighting position, so he didn’t attack her.
However, I only suggested one thing.
“You’re not in a combat position anyway, so there’s no need to fight one-on-one. So why don’t you team up and try to take down a big shot?”
“… … Chairman Lee Geun-taek?”
“I know Chairman Lee Geun-taek because we fought him before. Even if we join forces, we won’t be able to catch him anyway.”
“So… … what should I do… … even if it seems like I’m going to lose… … shouldn’t I just fight?”
Yoon Han-gyeol and Lee Yeon-ju were not fighting in the individual survival event, but were plotting a conspiracy.
“No, that’s not it. Not Chairman Lee Geun-taek, but Chang-hyeon… … that.”
Yoon Han-gyeol scratched the back of his head as if what he was saying now did not seem all that honest.
“ah…….”
I have watched Yoon Han-gyeol practice a lot and fought against him countless times. However, Yoon Han-gyeol has never beaten Lee Chang-hyun.
I respect and admire Lee Chang-hyun as a player and as a friend.
But on the other hand, don’t you think you want to win at least once, even if it’s just once. Even if it’s by cheating?
“Is there… an operation?”
“Similar to what we usually do with the team. You hide and support, and hold me back with [Binding], and I’ll do the rest.”
Of course, it was an operation that the two of them would not have done normally.
‘But… … something is different today. Something… … .’
Yoon Han-gyeol also felt that something had changed after he opened the ‘box that closes possibilities’.
I haven’t figured out exactly what the change was yet, but my condition was strangely good. I’ve never felt like things would go this well in my entire life.
“Okay, first, let’s figure out Chang-Hyeon’s location, then go to the expected route and wait.”
In a fight between hunters, the one who goes first always has the advantage.
Lee Yeon-ju and Yoon Han-gyeol headed to where Lee Chang-hyun was.
***
Meanwhile, Lee Chang-hyun was heading towards the direction where he felt the strongest mana energy. This was because there was a high possibility that Lee Geun-taek would be there.
‘Wow… … But did you turn on the match recording? Your expression when you got hit by Kim Do-jun was amazing.’
Not only did he look flustered, but since he was currently practicing for part 1 of Hunter Survival, he couldn’t help but feel quite hurt when he got hit.
So, Kim Do-jun, who had been properly hit, had an expression on his face as if he was trying to somehow block the sh*t that was about to come out right before he was about to be kicked out.
You should save those things and take them out quietly whenever you’re being teased.
While thinking about this and that, I was moving quickly on the air anchor.
Suddenly, I felt an unnatural flow of mana.
‘Who’s waiting?’
If you feel that way, you should obviously not surrender your body to the orbit of the air anchor you are riding.
Immediately, he moved irregularly using the airbeat.
Sigh -.
I knew it.
As I was heading towards the air anchor, something black flowed out.
‘Is this Lee Yeon-ju’s [bondage]?’
If I had gone without thinking, it might have been quite dangerous.
By the way, I didn’t really think that Lee Yeon-ju would be this active.
If you think about my usual play, it was a very precise moment. I told them not to use it unless it was a moment I thought would fit perfectly, and I did.
“Did you forget that I told you not to use it if you didn’t think it would fit?”
I felt Lee Yeon-ju’s energy nearby, so I opened my mouth, thinking that she might be hiding somewhere.
I could have found it right away if I used [Piercing Eye], but since I wanted to use the mana in this match to try out new abilities, I didn’t bother looking for it.
“If you use your ability like that, it’s not easy to hit your opponent because they keep thinking about it from the moment you dodge… .”
I kept giving various advices to Lee Yeon-ju like that.
Sigh -.
Once again [Binding] was used under my feet, and I was lifted into the air using Airbeat.
“So, even if you don’t write like that -… …!”
However, the moment he flew into the air, seven swords that had been hidden somewhere flew up at the same time.
“Ha… …! I was aiming for this from the beginning.”
A smile appeared on my lips without me realizing it.
Somehow I felt like he was acting more absurdly and boldly than usual.
Well then, that’s right. If you didn’t do it this way, it wouldn’t have happened that way.
“Hey! Yoon Han-gyeol! Lee Yeon-ju! You guys know this is an individual competition, right? Once this game is over, it’s really… … .”
At those words, Lee Yeon-ju, who had been hiding, peeked out her face
“If it’s an opponent you can’t win against alone… … I told you to use your teammates… … .”
Lee Yeon-ju was smiling more gloomily than usual, as if telling him to get beaten up once.
