Trait Absorption Hunter Hunter Episode 12
12. First Murder
“Eugh… … .”
Shim Jin-seop, who had collapsed from shock, regained consciousness.
It only took 10 minutes.
And the moment when you instinctively want to move.
“Ugh!”
A tremendous pain surged through my lower body.
I raised my head and looked, and sure enough, there was a large hole in my thigh.
“You’re awake?”
Sim Jin-seop turned his head in surprise at the sudden voice.
Min Do-jun, the person who made him like this, was smiling.
“I thought you were going to die, but you’re still alive? I guess Hunter equipment is really good.”
“You, you little punk… …! You did that on purpose!”
“Then did you think you got it wrong?”
It was possible that Shim Jin-seop didn’t notice because of the perfect acting, but that wasn’t important right now.
‘I have to kill him while he’s letting his guard down!’
Even if you can’t use your legs, you can still use your skills.
It was a simple task of just shouting out the skill name in your head.
But Shim Jin-seop was unable to put it into action.
Because I discovered the Ice Spear that Min Do-jun had summoned.
‘f*ck, if I do this I won’t be able to cast the skill… … .’
You can’t use a skill when the opponent is already aiming at you.
It was clear who would use their skills first.
As if he had read her thoughts, Min Do-jun warned her.
“I’d better not do anything rash. I might end up with my head pierced without even realizing it.”
“Why are you doing this to me? What is the reason?”
I couldn’t help but feel curious when someone I just met attacks me out of the blue.
“Is it because of the money? Or is it because of the items?”
Most hunters don’t point their swords at each other.
There’s no benefit to killing them.
You can gain experience points by killing monsters, but you can’t gain anything by killing fellow hunters.
Because all the equipment you were wearing will disappear as soon as you die.
To get an item from a Hunter, you must unequipped him and take him out of your inventory.
So, there were some evil people who would occasionally torture and rob other hunters, but they were a minority.
Most hunters aren’t so needy that they would covet someone else’s items.
“What do you want? Items? I’ll give you everything. If you just spare my life, these items… … Kyaak!”
Min Do-jun’s ice spear pierced Shim Jin-seop’s healthy thigh.
At the same time, I also created a Lightning Spear just in case.
But Shim Jin-seop had no intention of fighting back.
“Ugh! Why, why are you doing this? I told you I’d give you whatever you want.”
“No need.”
“Then why are you doing this?”
“plural.”
“what?”
Shim Jin-seop looked confused for an unexpected reason.
And I thought about it carefully.
Are you acquainted with Min Do-jun?
But no matter how much I thought about it, it was a face I was seeing for the first time.
“Who the hell are you?”
“Well. Who could it be?”
“Are you Hyemi’s boyfriend?”
“… … .”
I don’t know what he was saying, but Min Do-jun remained silent.
“Looking at your expression, you’re right.”
Looking at her frozen expression, Shim Jin-seop laughed and said, “Then that’s true.”
“That’s what she said. That I raped her.”
“… … .”
“If that’s why you’re doing this, then you’ve come to the wrong place. That girl was the one who suggested we drink first.”
Shim Jin-seop said that and looked at Min Do-jun’s expression.
‘Please trust me.’
Hye-mi was Shim Jin-seop’s first love in high school.
I recently met her by chance, and I was so overcome with lust at her pretty appearance that I ended up committing a crime.
It was not true that the tail was wagged first.
It was a lie told to get out of the situation.
‘I heard you had a boyfriend. I guess it was this kid.’
Then, Shim Jin-seop looked at Min Do-jun’s expression.
He seemed a little confused.

‘Okay! If you persuade me a little more, I’ll get over it!’
Shim Jin-seop, who had misunderstood the situation, appealed to be believed.
“You think I’m lying? But it’s true. It may be hard to believe, but that btch Hye-mi wagged her tail first!”
“You piece of trash.”
“what?”
“You were trash all along.”
Min Do-jun, who said so, summoned the Ice Spear.
“Hey, wait a minute! What’s wrong? You don’t believe me?”
“Of course. Would you believe it?”
“I’m not lying! It’s true!”
“I was just listening to what he was saying, and then he started bragging about the crimes he had committed.”
“Hey! I told you it’s not true!”
“Thanks to you, I don’t have to feel guilty.”
Min Do-jun immediately fired an ice spear.
“Cough!”
Before the ice spear stuck in his chest could even disappear, the lightning spears that were fired in succession shook Shim Jin-seop’s entire body.
“Kurururorarak!”
Shim Jin-seop frowned and rolled his eyes.
But this time, it seemed he hadn’t fainted, as the equipment he was wearing disappeared like a mirage.
[Hunter Sim Jin-seop was killed.]
[Trait ‘Spellcaster’ has been taken away.]
[16 pieces of equipment were stolen.]
[Seven magic stones were stolen.]
Min Do-jun was not happy about the feast of notifications.
I just feel a strong emotion about killing Shim Jin-seop.
‘It doesn’t feel very good.’
I thought I would feel relieved if I succeeded in getting revenge, but I felt more depressed than I thought.
The reason was quickly apparent.
‘I only took revenge on one guy. There are still 14 left.’
It was frustrating because there was still a long way to go and revenge was not completely over.
Min Do-jun, who had been burning the flames of revenge, only then turned his attention to the notification.
[Characteristic – Swordsman]
-Rating: S
-Description: Strength, stamina, and agility increase by half the amount of magic power.
In short, this means that if you increase your magic power by 1, the remaining stats will increase by 0.5.
‘You can raise all stats evenly just by increasing magic power… … That’s fraudulent.’
It was a trait that was perfect for a swordsman who needed all stats evenly distributed.
‘Status window.’
-Name: Min Do-jun (born 2000)
-Level: 121
-Rating: E
-Combat power: 5,928
-Domestic ranking: 20,919th
-World Ranking: 3,097,875th
-Strength: 129, Stamina: 144
– Agility: 156, Horsepower: 186
-Undistributed stats: 0
– Traits: Revenge (S), Hunter Hunter (EX), Magic Swordsman (S)
– Skills: Ice Spear (E), Lightning Spear (E), Energy Shield (E)
All stats increased evenly due to the increase in all stats from hidden achievements and the increase in stats from the swordsman trait.
That’s not a small number either.
A satisfied Min Do-jun then looked at the items he had taken.
‘Why is there so much equipment?’
It seemed like everything I had in my inventory, not just the equipment I was wearing, came back.
‘Most of them are D-class equipment.’
There were also some E-grade equipment, although I couldn’t wear them because the level cap was 150.
But it wasn’t as good as what Min Do-jun wore.
‘I should keep only what I need and sell the rest.’
There were also magic stones for sale.
‘6 E-class and 1 D-class… … That’s quite a lot.’
There was financial gain, but the biggest gain was gaining character.
Because the traits couldn’t be bought with money.
That doesn’t mean I felt grateful to Shim Jin-seop.
When I think of the pain I have suffered, it is not even worth the price of my life.
‘I guess I should leave now.’
Before leaving, Min Do-jun picked a leaf the size of a person from a nearby tree.
I was thinking of covering it over Shim Jin-seop’s body.
‘It’ll be a headache if it’s discovered for no reason.’
There is no evidence that Min Do-jun did it, but it is better to leave it uncovered just in case.
Before covering the leaves, Min Do-jun looked down at Shim Jin-seop one last time.
Min Do-jun felt no emotion at all at the sight of him dead in his casual clothes.
Shim Jin-seop was too insignificant to calm the anger that was buried deep in his heart.
‘It’s just beginning.’
Revenge started from now.
The curtain of revenge was opened starting with Shim Jin-seop.
‘I’ll go up one by one and kill them all without exception.’
Min Do-jun walked away, leaving Shim Jin-seop like that.
There was no need to dispose of the body separately.
Anyway, if you clear the dungeon, that guy will disappear from this world.
It’s okay if party members ask about your whereabouts later.
If Shim Jin-seop just says he went alone to look for the warriors, that’s the end of it.
-Strategy Achievement: 25/80 werewolves
– Time remaining: 1 hour 53 minutes 52 seconds
‘There’s not enough time… … .’
Looking at the strategy window, the number of werewolves I caught had increased.
It was something that Min Do-jun and the torn warriors had caught somewhere.
‘The hunting speed isn’t bad, but… … .’
There was not enough time.
This is not a time that two warriors can break.
‘If we continue like this, we will fail.’
This might be the first time you’ll get a penalty.
If Min Do-jun doesn’t come forward.
‘It’s time to do it right now.’
Since no one is watching, there is no problem showing off your true skills.
You may think it’s strange to see the numbers in the strategy window rising so quickly, but it’s better than the penalty.
Min Do-jun, who has become even stronger, has stepped forward to help with the hunting.
* * *
Kang Tae-won and Ko Seong-min are experienced fighters.
You could tell just by looking at them running without hesitation when the werewolf appeared.
‘Heavy Smash!’
Wake up!
‘Sword Slash!’
Wake up!
Two werewolves died by their hands.
[Experience +200] (Contribution 100%)
Each one was killed perfectly.
It took some time though.
“Wow, that’s amazing. You defeated the werewolf all by yourself.”
“Taewon-ssi, you caught it by yourself. And faster than me.”
“It’s because the level is high, you know.”
“Hey, you’re only two years taller than me, what are you talking about?”
The two people looked at each other and smiled.
“Shall we take a short break and go?”
“That’s right. It’s hard for two people to catch it.”
The two sat down and thought about the culprit who had brought things to this point.
The troublemaker named Min Do-jun.
“Was it Min Do-jun? What kind of trouble is this because of him?”
“That’s right. How thoughtless of you to challenge it right away because you don’t have the skills and the level is limited… … .”
“I guess it’s a symbol of wanting to take the Bona Mana bus.”
“And I even wasted time asking you to teach me how to land skills in the dungeon… … .”
“Oh my, this is the first time I’ve seen such a nuisance.”
“If we keep doing this, aren’t we going to end up clearing a four-person dungeon together?”
“Three. If you include that guy named Shim Jin-seop.”
“That guy is also not very cool. He’s a wizard.”
“Well, even if a wizard hunts, he can’t match the warrior.”
That was the reality.
As a wizard who had no alternative means other than his skills, his hunting speed was bound to be slower than that of a warrior.
Especially now that the compatibility of attributes has not been revealed.
That’s why the two of them couldn’t shake off their ominous feeling.
“If we do something wrong, won’t our attack fail? Because of the wizards?”
“Oh, no way… … !”
The two people who felt an ominous premonition hurriedly opened the strategy window.
-Strategy Achievement: 40/80 werewolves
-Time remaining: 1 hour 40 minutes 14 seconds
“uh?”
The two people who saw the strategy window had puzzled expressions.
“What? Why did the number go up like this?”
“Wasn’t there 30 when I saw it 10 minutes ago?”
“Oh, one just went up.”
The warriors who had been feeling uneasy about the wizard team felt a little relieved.
“Are you holding it well?”
“Oh, it went up again.”
It wasn’t that I could hold it well.
“It went up again… … ?”
“What? You caught it already?”
They went up almost every minute.
It was an incredibly fast hunting speed for two wizards.
But they didn’t know.
I never thought that Min Do-jun would be the only one hunting right now.
“You’re really good at catching things.”
“… … .”
It’s hard to believe even if you see it with your own eyes.
The two men, who already had pride in their warriors, could not accept the fact that they were being pushed back by a magician.
“Let’s do our best too.”
“Let’s do that.”
At the moment when the warriors, who had strengthened their resolve, were about to resume hunting.
Krrrrrrrr-
At that moment, the howling of a werewolf was heard.
“Thank goodness I don’t have to go looking for this… … .”
“Wait a minute. Something is different?”
The depth of the crying was different than usual.
It didn’t seem like an ordinary werewolf.
Krrrrrrrr-
The warriors with weapons looked around.
But all I could hear was the sound, and I couldn’t find the werewolf.
All that could be seen were two red lights floating in the dark forest.
“Sir, no way!”
“Red-Eyed Werewolf?”
The boss of the werewolves appeared.
