Episode 107
Superhuman mental strength.
There is no other way to express it other than that.
Gu Geon plugged his nose, trying desperately to maintain his senses.
Wow.
The luscious scent emanating from Maria’s whole body.
I felt like I couldn’t stand the smell any longer.
“I have something to tell you.”
Maria’s tone was extremely dry.
But on the other hand, there was deep depth in her eyes.
“… … “Just state the matter briefly.”
Without even telling him to sit down, Gugeon gives a short answer.
You can have as many conversations as you want.
If I could call him back to the Glory Guild, I would do it even if it meant staying up all night.
However, Gu Geon’s current state was like a time bomb that could explode at any moment.
The nape of Maria’s neck revealed white.
Gu Geon made an effort to turn his head away from the part he had been looking at without realizing it.
“Stop ranking matches.”
“… … !”
It’s not ‘I hope you do it’, it’s ‘please do it’.
It was a strong tone that rarely came out of Maria’s mouth.
Goo Geon smiles as if it’s funny.
Large molars peeked out between smiling lips.
“They say a place makes a person… … . “You say something quite arrogant.”
“… … .”
“Now that you are not from Glory, I have no reason to listen to you. “Even back then, I wasn’t your boss.”
“Others may not know, but you can’t deceive my eyes.”
“what?”
“Right now, the CEO’s body is falling apart.”
Goo Geon’s dark and thick eyebrows flutter wildly.
In today’s ranking match, Goo Geon received countless greetings.
And most of the greetings were ‘Congratulations on becoming stronger.’
Everyone praised her overwhelming strength, but did Maria see something else in her eyes?
“It’s collapsing. Did you hear something like that even after watching the semifinals?”
“It has nothing to do with becoming stronger. If CEO Koo continues to allow himself to change… … .”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
Gugeon cut off Maria’s words midway.
Because he had an idea of what she was going to say.
Goo Geon mixed substances obtained from Yoo Ji-won’s rampage into his body.
Although he is currently controlling the amount in his own way, it wouldn’t be strange if he turned into Yu Ji-won at any time.
In fact, Maria felt similar to that moment during Goo Geon’s battle scene.
The purple pupils and aura become more vivid.
It was an energy that had never been seen in Gu Geon before.
“No matter what you think, it doesn’t happen.”
“CEO… … .”
“The only thing I lost is you.”
“… … !”
“I will no longer lose the Glory Guild’s jurisdiction, nor will I lose everything I hold in my hands. “If you’re going to disturb me with trivial words, then just leave.”
Maria hardly tried to move.
Her face was full of worry and pity.
However, that light of compassion made Gu Geon burn even more.
“Should I force you to leave?”
Maria flinched her shoulders at that scary voice.
She let out a soft sigh and left the waiting room, and only then was Gugeon able to calm down his desire.
Drumming.
Once again, an eerie sound fills the waiting room.
The sound was the same, but this time it wasn’t about appetite.
‘Cheon Hae-seon… … !!’
The reputation of the Glory Guild.
The image of the strongest hunter.
And, to Maria.
Thinking of the enemy who took everything away, Gu Geon ground his teeth until they were broken.
* * *
Looking back, I’m pretty good at remembering people’s names.
However, I can’t remember the man in front of me very well.
Buck teeth and snub nose.
And messy long hair that doesn’t suit you.
This is because the image this man has clearly brings to mind one word.

“Ignorance?”
“… … “At this point, you can probably think I’m teasing you on purpose, right?”
The long-haired man clenched his fist and immediately shouted at the top of his voice.
“It’s ignorance!! wealth! ji! castle!! “At this point, even the neighborhood dogs will know their names!!”
“iced coffee… … . Bodhisattva. right.”
After grumbling once, Bu-seong suddenly grabs my arm and moves to a quiet place.
“… … ?
Then he looked around carefully and opened his mouth with a cautious expression.
“I have information for you.”
“information?”
“It’s related to Goo Geon.”
hmm.
I think I know what you’re trying to say.
As he was a person who aimed to win, he must have watched every scene of Goo Geon fighting.
Seeing him come to such a secret place and say this, it seems like he has some level of confidence.
At this point, there is no need to pretend not to know.
“What? Are you going to become weird like Yoo Ji-won?”
He flinched in response to my answer.
“you you. “Did you know?”
“I was there, of course. “Maybe Maria knows too.”
Every time she watched Gu Geon’s battle, Maria’s shadow deepened.
To me, he’s a guy I don’t mind falling down at any time, but it’s probably different for Maria.
“Thank you for the information, but I am already aware of this. then.”
“wait for a sec… … ! “This is kind of impatient.”
“Is there anything else left to talk about?”
“okay. Hmm. “You probably know that our ‘Guntech’ has the most advanced technology in the country.”
Bu-seong scratches the back of his head and continues.
It’s worth feeling embarrassed that the device with ‘excellent technology’ was completely destroyed in the previous match.
“We have a business agreement with a German company called ‘Stern’. “We share each other’s technologies and jointly develop devices.”
“however?”
“A cannibalism incident occurred in Hamburg not long ago. “Like Yoo Ji-won’s case, they say a hunter caught and ate a person.”
“… … !!!”
That was the first time I heard it.
This information has not been heard through the association or the news, or even through Hyuk-gyu Pyo, so it seems to be kept quite confidential.
Since the matter is a serious matter, it seems like they are taking it easy as if it was handled in Korea.
“Stern employees investigated the site, and surprisingly, no waves were found in the surrounding area.”
“Is that possible?”
I couldn’t help but ask back in a surprised voice.
Whether it’s a dungeon or a gate, all ‘cracks’ start from a wavelength.
Although movement between dimensions is still considered a mystery, this ‘wavelength’ has been studied for a long time in many countries around the world.
As a result, dungeons and gates can be distinguished according to the type of ‘wavelength’, and recently, it has become possible to even predict the appearance time.
Yoo Ji-won’s change is clearly not of this world.
Something from another dimension must have had an effect, but no waves were found at all?
“I couldn’t believe my ears at first. There were several ‘runaways’ during that time, but there were no crazy people who committed cannibalism. “Something special must have intervened in Germany as well.”
“… … .”
Movement between dimensions is possible without waves.
That’s the same as saying that a monster could pop out at any time.
“be careful. Because you never know what might come out when you confront him. Did you see it too? Blocking Ga Yeol-chan’s skill with your breath. “It’s not for shooting some kind of breath.”
I look at Bu Ji-seong, who is shaking his head.
To be honest, it is true that I was prejudiced.
The assigned team was a hunter pushing from behind, and he also looked like a person suffering from heroism.
And so so… … ugly.
However, contrary to prejudice, Bu Bu-seong was quite a hospitable person.
Aren’t you giving information that you shouldn’t have to give to someone you have no particular connection with who knocked you out of the semi-final stage?
“thank you.”
I slightly lowered my head, and Bu Seong widened his eyes as if he was quite surprised.
“What’s going on… … . “I know how to bow my head.”
“I’m not that arrogant. “I do the same thing to those who criticize me.”
“okay? “Then, since I’m the older brother, how about I start by correcting my informal language?”
“Sure, whatever. “It doesn’t even cost money.”
“wow. “It changes quickly.”
Busyseong who is laughing and can’t hide his joy.
Looking at that, I feel a little sorry for keeping calling him the wrong name.
“It’s time for the finals. “Let’s just move on, ‘Mu’ hyung.”
“under… … . This kid again… … .”
* * *
“Let’s finish this quickly and go get some food.”
Bisu spoke simply, pretending like nothing had happened.
“Good luck, Hunter.”
Kang Jeong-hyeon cheered with eyes full of trust.
“Hunter.”
And from then on, Maria had an indescribably complicated face.
“Do your best.”
Would it be an assumption to say that the word ‘well’ contains a lot of meaning?
Anyway, it was clearly visible that it was firmly located in the center.
Safe return.
That’s probably what she wants most in this final.
“I’ll have a nice trip.”
After looking around at the Irregular members, I walked up to the studio.
“From now on! The long-awaited ranking match finals are about to begin~~~~!!!!”
-Waaaaaaaa!
This is a game where so many things are at stake.
The title of Korea’s best hunter.
A ticket to participate in the World Hunter Forum.
And, an opportunity to uncover the suspicious changes in Goo Geon.
I see Goo Geon trotting across from the other side.
As the two hunters who will compete in the finals arrive, the audience’s reaction reaches its peak.
“Win, Cheon Hae-seon!!!!!”
“It is the day when new history is written!!”
“Glory Guild Fighting!!”
“Show me that the old building is a famous building!!”
Goo Geon’s deep bass voice is heard amidst the cheers of the audience.
“… … “I guess you haven’t forgotten the promise you made earlier.”
Because the voice is filled with ether, you can hear it clearly even if you don’t pay special attention.
The day I first met him.
At that time, the voice alone was overwhelming, but not anymore.
I also answered him by applying the ‘Lion’s Roar’ skill.
“of course. “I’ll hit you exactly five times the size of the six-wheeled sword.”
Maria’s worried eyes appeared for a moment, but
I have no intention of looking into the situation.
While that guy was typing away at the calculator in his head, people around him were dying helplessly.
The blood and flesh that splattered at that time.
People who have been reduced to a handful of blood.
Young children who were abused by poison monsters.
Their memories were still clearly imprinted in my mind.
If it weren’t for my unusual constitution, I too would have had a different fate on the spot.
“You could have come, but you didn’t.”
“… … ?”
“Is there any point in existing in a guild that doesn’t come to save people?”
“When did we talk about the enemy…” … .”
“And does the guild leader who bargained for people’s lives deserve to be alive?”
“… … !!”
It was a long and winding road.
Gu Geon didn’t answer, but he came running all the way here to say that.
Gu Geon.
I’m giving you a piece of cake here today.
Sigh.
Raise your palms covered in haze to the sky.
Soon, the black energy inside the body explodes, using the haze as an ignition point.
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
“I… … What is that???”
The audience, who had been cheering, retreats in horror.
This is because the ether extending from the hand took on a special form.
-Keaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!
“Hey!!”
With a ferocious scream, the red viper reveals its terrifying majesty.
This is the first time it is brought up in an official setting.
Although the size was reduced by half, it was still large enough to scare the people watching.
“You’re putting on a live show.”
Gugeon’s pupils, who were watching, turn purple.
With both feet firmly planted on the sparring floor, he showed off his trademark.
Wow!!!
‘Wailing Wall’
A wide defensive wall stretched out in front of Gugeon’s body, as if telling him to come.
I slowly raised my head and gave an order to the Red Viper.
“do whatever you want.”
Is there any instruction as appropriate as that?
The Red Viper rammed its head into the Wailing Wall without any hesitation.
-Kyaaaaa!!
bang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
