Episode 110
“Hunter!!!!!”
Sigh.
It was Kang Jeong-hyeon who saved Cheon Hae-seon’s body as it fell to the ground.
Before he had time to take off the bandages, abundant tree branches sprouted from his right shoulder through the straps.
Toouk.
Cheon Hae-seon’s body, which was collapsing, is hugged by soft leaves.
Countless people breathe a sigh of relief.
However, soon the leaves lose their original shine and begin to rot.
“what… … ?!”
Kang Jeong-hyeon has no way of knowing what ingredients are in Cheon Hae-seon’s blood.
Although he couldn’t understand the current situation, he gritted his teeth.
Sussss… … .
Thanks to the constant spreading of the leaves, Cheon Hae-seon did not suffer any additional damage.
Blood was still pouring like a waterfall around both arms where one of them had been cut off, and his complexion was also becoming pale by the second.
“Buff, quick!!”
Maria shouted at Bisu, 180 degrees different from her usual speaking tone.
Bisu twitched his eyebrows, but soon realized her intention and gathered all the ether in his body.
Soon Bisu’s ‘buff’ was directed to Maria, who quickly ran over and infused healing power into Cheon Hae-seon.
Sharrrrr… … .
No one at the scene could open their mouths.
An unspeakable catastrophe had occurred, so all I could do was hold my breath and watch the scene.
A whirlwind that appeared from nowhere engulfed the two people, and Cheon Hae-seon suffered fatal injuries and lost consciousness.
It’s not even clear where Goo Geon went.
People were just looking at the scene in front of them with anxious hearts.
The good news is that the person casting healing is the best healer in Korea.
And it was only recently that he had been injured.
‘You can put it back…’ … !’
No, I will definitely return it.
Maria was sweating profusely and trying hard.
Thanks to the dagger’s buff, I was able to use stronger energy than usual.
At this level, even a person who had fallen into the 3rd degree heaven had the force to pull himself up.
However, for some reason, Cheon Hae-seon’s arms showed no signs of revival.
‘why… … !’
She was so distressed that her red lips became dry.
No matter how high the tier the hunter was, his body would quickly recover with his own healing power.
She was able to heal dozens of people at the same time on the battlefield.
But now, even though he poured out all his strength, he was unable to restore even one Cheon Hae-seon.
Grumble.
Meanwhile, the indifferent blood continued to flow down and soak the floor, and Cheon Hae-seon’s complexion was now pale and tired.
If this continues, I might really die.
Dying?
Is Cheon Hae-seon so vain?
Maria had seen many hunters die, but for some reason, she never thought that Cheon Hae-seon would die.
Ironically, the memories of Cheon Hae-seon flash through Maria’s mind like a flash of light.
The day I first met him at the association headquarters, the day I judged him in the qualification test.
The day he saved himself from Yoo Ji-won.
And, until the day I asked about the scars from cutting myself.
My concentration gradually breaks down, and my hands start to tremble slightly.
Eventually, the view looking at the Cheonhae Line begins to become blurry.
“no… … !”
Bright red liquid flows from the end of Maria’s lips.
As I had already received a buff and my emotions became more intense, the ether began to disintegrate.
The high-ranking hunters who saw that scene felt their hearts sink.
Blood was flowing from Mary’s mouth.
It was said that Cheon Hae-seon’s condition was hopeless.
“no!!”
Maria’s screams fill the sparring hall.
My vision is already completely blurred and I can’t see anything.
I feel nauseous, as if I’m going to vomit up everything I ate at any moment.
But still, Maria did not withdraw her outstretched hand.
Because if you stop healing here, it really is the end.
“please… … Someone… … .”
The sight of Mary with clear tears from her eyes and blood flowing from her mouth was both sad and strange.
At that time, everyone watching couldn’t help but feel devastated.
Someone jumped onto the sparring area with a quick movement.
“Please step back.”
A straight-looking middle-aged man stops Maria.

Who is it?
He is a familiar person.
Maria, who was remembering for a moment, called the man’s name.
“Director Pyo Hyeok-gyu… … . You can’t come near… … .”
I don’t know why, but Cheon Hae-seon’s blood was filled with a terrible poison.
Since he is an S-rank healer, he is next to him, but other people will be fatally injured even if they just breathe near him.
However, whether he knew that fact or not, Pyo Hyuk-gyu did not stop walking.
“it’s okay.”
Just as Maria was about to say more, he pulled out a dazzling substance from inside his suit.
“ah… … ?”
Five-colored, brilliantly shining petals.
And the white leaf stems that support them.
A treasure that even Maria has never seen in person.
Geumyeonghwa (金永花).
A legendary substance that is said to bring back the dead was held in Pyo Hyeok-gyu’s hands.
“This… … .”
How do we have this precious material?
But there was no time to question such things.
Maria quickly shut her mouth and moved away.
Now that I see it, it seems that it was thanks to Geum Yeong-hwa that I was able to come around Cheon Hae-seon, who was covered in blood.
“To end in a place like this… … There is so much for you to do.”
Pyo Hyuk-gyu put down the gold coin and muttered softly.
Shurrrrr… … .
Is this what a young fairy sounds like?
A soft sound, like a tickling whisper, leaks out from Geumyeonghwa.
The gold film placed on top of Cheon Hae-seon’s heart soon begins to melt, sprinkling five colors of light.
“Oh oh… … !!!”
“Well, that… … !!”
People who know about rare plants exclaim in exclamation.
Their faces also become bright like the color of golden films.
The goal is to find out the value of gold films.
“That’s enough… … !! If that thing… … !!”
Shurrr… … .
As the five-colored light becomes stronger, people around them cover their eyes with their hands.
I felt like I would go blind at any moment if I stared blankly.
And in the middle of that dazzling light, Cheon Hae-seon was recovering.
Pot!
“Oh oh… … !!”
No matter who goes first, shouts of joy erupt.
The light that was so strong that it was unbearable to look at disappeared without a trace, and Cheon Hae-seon, completely intact, reappeared in front of everyone.
* * *
‘dream… … ‘Did you have a dream?’
It was too vivid to be a dream.
Both arms were torn to shreds, and the bloodshot eyes naturally closed.
But when I came to, my arms were in the same place as always.
-Wow!!
Consciousness, which had been slowly coming back, is quickly restored by the shouts of people.
that’s right.
I was playing a ranked match right now.
“It’s so cheap!!”
“Hunter!!!!!!!”
A sound full of moisture is heard from nearby.
It is the voice of Bisu and Kang Jeong-hyeon.
You must have been quite worried.
I try to force my upper body up, but somehow my body feels heavy.
I’ve just regained consciousness and to say that, it feels like my body has become double… … .
“reel?”
It wasn’t an illusion.
Someone was crying quietly with their face buried in my chest.
“Maria?”
She shed tears, shaking her shoulders without answering.
hmm.
Suddenly, I feel like I need to really reflect on something.
“Fortunately, the. “Hunter.”
I turn my head and see the face of a familiar man.
A middle-aged man with a typical nerdy style.
He has rarely shown any emotions.
But now, there was a slight twitch in Pyo Hyeok-gyu’s cheek.
Sigh.
Strangely enough, there was a placell attached to the new(?) arm.
It is said that Geumyeonghwa’s healing principle is ‘turning back time’, and indeed, the state was the same as before the tornado occurred.
Little by little, a moist energy is delivered to the chest.
Maria’s clothes got wet from her tears.
It was truly my first time seeing such extreme emotions.
I carefully raised my right arm and stroked her head.
“It’s okay now.”
Then Maria raised her head with a face covered in tears.
When I see that pitiful sight, my heart becomes somber.
“Don’t get hurt again…” … .”
“… … .”
Is that something that can be done as one pleases?
But I couldn’t help but nod my head in confusion.
* * *
“I see… … .”
Although all ranking matches ended, no separate events were held.
It was a raid that no one expected, and Gu Geon was still missing.
I asked all the high-ranking hunters around me, but they all said it was their first time seeing such a ruthless and unreasonable wedge.
Only one.
All he could say was that if it had been him, he would have healed or died in one hit.
“Hunter! Fortunately, the!”
So many people came to say hello to me.
Starting with Yuk Cheol-wan, who is still in the recovery room, Yeol-chan Chan, Bae Jeong-dae, Muji… … No, no hesitation, etc.
Especially when I saw my sister’s face, I really wanted to go into a rat hole.
I reassured him that he would never get hurt, but I had no idea that the audience would see him with both arms cut off.
My sister, like everyone else, just kept repeating that she was glad.
However, before turning around, he left a special message that was different from others.
“Let’s go home and see you.”
Just as I was thinking, “I’m behind,” Pyo Hyuk-gyu asks me to join him alone.
After reassuring the people around us, we moved to the back of the headquarters building.
Although I had already completed the basic report to the association, I needed to have a more in-depth conversation with him.
From the beginning, I thought they were going to ask about Gu Geon or the existence of the attackers, but a completely different person was mentioned first.
“I’m worried about Maria.”
“Maria? … … I heard that the ether flowed back… … .”
“no. That’s not what I meant.”
Pyo Hyuk-gyu looks like a gangster.
A humorous smile that was rarely seen on him was seen.
“It seems like Maria has a special regard for Hunter Cheon Haeseon.”
“to?”
It’s special, but it’s special.
Because we are members of the ‘Irregulars’, one of only five members in Korea.
But looking at that sly(?) smile, I didn’t think that was what he meant.
“As you know, CEO Goo Geon-i and Maria have been together for quite some time. During that time, CEO Goo Geon-i also suffered major and minor injuries.”
“So?”
“Today was the first time. “The reason Maria acted like such a lost person.”
“… … hmm?”
“He was a person who focused on healing like a robot even when CEO Goo Geon-i’s life was in jeopardy. But today… … .”
Pyo Hyuk-gyu was speechless, but he could easily guess what followed.
Even after she came to her senses, Maria sobbed for a long time with her face buried.
but.
When someone comes back from the dead, aren’t you bound to get emotional?
As I kept tilting my head, Pyo Hyuk-gyu burst out laughing.
“That’s why it’s such a big deal. From the looks of it, Mr. Bisu also seems to have a special relationship with Hunter Cheon Hae-seon… … .”
“You guessed wrong. “We at Irregular strictly distinguish between public and private life.”
“Do they really think that way?”
“of course.”
uh… … hmm.
maybe?
“Then I’m glad.”
Pyo Hyuk-gyu nods with an insincere face.
Enough nonsense, now it’s time to get to the point.
“Hunter. “Do you know that there are three other worlds other than the world we live in?”
Three things?
There are only two other worlds that I know of.
Another world connected to the dungeon.
The spirit world where spirit creatures, including Daebumi, live.
Besides that, is there one more thing?
“There are rumors I’ve heard about the other world and the spirit world.”
Exorcism delivered from a black market yaksha.
Through that object, I was able to experience the spirit world and saw various spirit creatures as well as Cyril’s shadow.
“you’re right. The other world and the spirit world. They are all indirectly connected to this world. In particular, in the case of other worlds, I learned quite a lot through conquering numerous dungeons. But… … .”
Pyo Hyuk-gyu’s eyes suddenly changed sharply.
It’s a harsh impression that I haven’t seen in the association or even when I met him in private.
“There is a world that we cannot even guess about.”
“that is… … “Where is it?”
“Demon Realm.”
“… … !”
Pyo Hyuk-gyu’s face suddenly stiffened at his answer.
“The person who attacked today is believed to be a person from the demon world.”
