Episode 121
As it was an event where elites from each country gathered, there was no one who did not receive attention.
However, if you ask who received the most attention at this World Hunter Forum, it was definitely the hunters from Korea.
While most countries sent members who had been fixed on the level of rice for many years, in Korea, everyone except Maria was a new face.
Their affiliation was also different from that of a regular guild, and above all, the visuals of the three men and women standing in the foreground were shining brightly.
pop! pop!
Murmur.
“Who is that red Aphrodite? “Where are you from?”
“and… … . “Maria’s face shines brighter day by day.”
“The man caught in the middle is not ordinary either. “He just looks a little sharp, but he has a sculpted face.”
“haha! “You can turn the World Hunter Forum into a runway venue in an instant!”
Whether it is for those who have received information in advance or those who have no idea, it is equally interesting.
The ‘Irregulars’ have become quite famous without even realizing it.
“korea? “If it’s Korea, Glory Guild Hunters keep coming, right?”
“I heard that the Korean Hunter Association did not recommend the Glory Guild this time. “It seems that Maria, who came out today, also participated as a member of ‘Irregular’ and not as a member of the Glory Guild.”
“what? Maria left the Glory Guild? There’s no way Mr. Gu would let that go.”
“This friend. Is it okay for the news to be that slow? Gu Geon has been missing since the ranking match.”
“her… … . “Korea has become a huge hot place without us knowing.”
Their topicality also made an impression on other hunters far away.
A fierce group that feels more like a raider than a hunter.
They were hunters from the ‘Guardian’ guild who flew in from England.
“It’s totally my style.”
A blonde man with impressive, slightly droopy eyes.
Roy Hiddleston licks his lips with his tongue.
A fellow hunter who noticed those sticky eyes asked with a grin.
“Roy. “Do you want to be disciplined as soon as you return?”
“oh. No way.”
Roy Hiddleston waves to his colleague with an exaggerated gesture.
This man, who is in his early 30s, couldn’t take his eyes off the photo zone while brushing his blonde hair.
“But it’s really beautiful. “I can’t control myself.”
With his white skin and distinct features, he looks like a pretty handsome guy.
However, because of his gloomy, dark eyes, he was a man who gave off a mean feeling rather than a bright feeling.
His colleague seemed anxious about Roy’s appearance, so he added another word.
“If I crash again this time, it will be over. “Don’t forget that you have not yet been pardoned for the crime of insulting the imperial family.”
“then. “That’s how it should be.”
Roy nodded, but there was no sincerity in it.
‘S’ rank Esper Roy Hiddleston.
Although he only had one skill, it was so powerful that he didn’t need anything else.
<#Contact: Connects the ether thread to control the target. It not only controls the body but also connects to the target’s mind to form a master-slave relationship.>
This is Roy’s skill registered with the Hunter Association.
Roy Hiddleston was a person who possessed high-level telekinetic powers that not only restricted the subject but also plundered their mind.
There was a good reason why his colleagues spoke to Roy.
Just a few months ago.
Roy used ‘Contact’ to establish a honeymoon relationship with a princess of the British imperial family.
It goes without saying that the British imperial family and government were upset.
Roy and the princess explained that they were in love with each other, but no one believed what they said.
Because everyone knew how absolute the skills he used were.
In fact, while Roy was on probation and could not go out, the princess stopped looking for Roy, saying, ‘I think he came out of hypnosis.’
It was a shame that he didn’t improve his work in the imperial family, which valued respect, and it was a big incident that could have resulted in his hunter’s qualifications being suspended.
‘A dagger? ‘That’s an interesting name.’
Nevertheless, Roy stuck out his tongue and winked at the red-haired girl.
His obsession with women was truly pathological.
However, because his skills were so outstanding, the British Hunters Association and the imperial family were unable to impose any significant sanctions on him.
After the monsters appeared, wasn’t it an era where force was the law and power?
The ‘Guardian’ led by Roy, the man at the peak of power, finally arrived in front of the red carpet.
* * *
“I thought what would happen if I became an international outcast, but there is absolutely no need for that.”
“I see.”
Cheon Hae-seon chuckled at Yuk Cheol-wan’s words.
As he said, ‘Irregular’ was the first World Hunter Forum, and there were more than 500 celebrities there.
Except for them, most of them were ‘old people’, and I thought there was a possibility of being alienated among them.
However, that was unfounded.
They were almost exhausted from greeting the hunters who visited frequently.
In addition to the strong impression he made on the red carpet, interest in ‘Irregular’ rose to the surface as it was announced that he had captured the 8-star monster ‘Sky Dragon’.
Even if they didn’t go around, they would come first from the other side and try to build friendships.
Moreover, among the Irregular members was Maria, who was familiar with this place, so she was able to naturally introduce the hunters.
“BOY. I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard your performance. Suppressing a fire dragon with five people? “It seems like God’s protection was on your back.”
“Thank you.”

A Dutch hunter who introduced himself as ‘Van’ shook hands with Cheon Hae-seon with a friendly smile.
He was also a person who defeated a 7-star monster in another area, but in VAN’s blue eyes, Cheon Hae-seon, who was still a minor, seemed amazing.
“Including you, there are many young hunters in ‘Irregular’. It’s an enviable thing. “In the Netherlands, from 1st to 10th place, there are only old men.”
Van laughed humorlessly and immediately left, and Bisu sighed and leaned his back against one wall.
“Shut up. Learning faces is also work, work. If this is going to be the case, it would be better to just go up to the podium one by one and introduce ourselves.”
“haha. “Are you here for the retreat?”
“It would have been better to have a retreat. I was expecting a lot of delicious food, but I lost my appetite. “Are we at a social club now?”
“In a way, that’s true.”
Maria joined their conversation.
“For large-scale gates or dungeons, we need to join forces with neighboring countries. Of course, it is the government and associations that request cooperation, but we are the ones who actually go to the battlefield… … .”
Cheon Hae-seon continued her words.
“It’s good to have a good relationship with each other to help each other. Is that so?”
“yes. That’s the concept. Plus, in the eyes of other hunters, we are on pretty good terms.”
“hmm. “I think I understand.”
When Cheon Hae-seon nodded, Bisu’s eyes turned round.
“Are the conditions good? “What does that mean?”
“that… … “Why don’t you think about it as if it’s on your shoulders a little bit?”
“what?”
Bisu lifted his fork and aimed it at Cheon Hae-seon, and Kang Jeong-hyeon swallowed his saliva at the sight.
‘Are those two people on good terms or bad terms?’
“Think about it carefully. The hunters gathered here are trying to help each other, but there are probably various limitations in actually receiving help. “There will be a gap in the existing jurisdiction, or there will be problems with staffing.”
“however?”
“But we are different. “Because we are not a guild.”
“What’s wrong with that…” … ?”
Bisu stopped speaking and tapped his forehead.
“We are not bound by anything?”
“okay. That’s right.”
Mavericks can operate anywhere, but there is no place they are obligated to defend.
In other words, it is an organization that does not have to worry about being dispatched on a special mission at any time.
Moreover, since there are only five people, it can be moved on a light scale.
Isn’t the strength of the five members equivalent to that of a single guild?
“From their perspective, he is a relief pitcher who can be dispatched at any time. “A small group of elites who can kill 8-star monsters without any injuries.”
“all. “When you say it like that, it seems like we’re a bit weird?”
The nose of the bisu rose up as if piercing the sky.
But Maria calmly shook her head.
“To be exact, it is not ‘Irregular’, but Hunter Hae-seon Cheon’s value alone. “Jeonghyun and Cheolwan Hunters would have been able to withstand the fire dragon’s attack, but inflicting fatal wounds is impossible.”
“… … sister. “Is Kim going to be like this?”
Bisu pursed his lips, but did not deny it in any way.
Clearly, the reason the Korean Irregular Team became a hot topic was because the ‘fatal wound’ was highlighted.
The Fire Dragon is a monster whose durability is as strong as its gigantic size.
An advanced race that can defeat most attacks with only its thick wings, or rather with just the flap of its wings.
Even if an ‘S’ rank wields a blade or telekinetic power, it has a hardness that makes it doubtful that it will be able to inflict damage.
Only five ‘Irregulars’ took down a monster that dozens of hunters were concerned about killing at once, and only one person even delivered a direct effective hit.
It was only Cheon Hae-seon.
“oh! Maria!”
Another hunter found Maria, and the beast’s face turned gaunt again.
“I’m going to stay out for a while… … .”
As Bisu slowly retreated, Franco arrived in front of the Irregular.
He was a man who was a head taller than Yuk Cheol-wan, and the curled ends of his brown mustache gave him a comical image.
“Franco.”
Maria smiled brightly and stuck out her cheek as if she was used to it, and Franco lightly touched her cheek.
“Franco is the head of the ‘Honneur’ guild. “He looks like a knight, but he’s an ‘S’ rank esper.”
“oh. Are you Cheon Hae-sun?”
Franco smiled happily and held out a hand.
Cheon Hae-seon was worried that someone might show his face to her.
He sighed in relief and clasped his hands.
Wow.
‘reel?’
However, a strange pressure is felt at Cheon Hae-seon’s fingertips.
I felt an excessive force from Franco that could not be called a normal handshake.
‘Why are you like this, you bastard?’
There have been many handshakes over the years, but this was the first time such an open fight had occurred.
Franco was still making a funny expression, but he couldn’t even hide the hostility inside.
why?
Since when did you see me?
From Maria’s continued explanation, Cheon Hae-seon was able to understand the reason.
“In addition to Hunter, Franco is also serving as a director of a device manufacturing company. He has continuously provided Glory with cutting-edge devices and biological research data made by weapons companies. now… … Progress may have been halted.”
aha.
To put it simply, the position of CEO of Glory is vacant, so the company cannot sell products.
‘But is it because of me?’
Cheon Hae-seon felt a sense of injustice, and at the same time, a secret sense of envy rose up.
A guy who doesn’t even know the context is going to start a fight like this?
‘If it wasn’t just you… … .’
Cheon Hae-seon’s prediction was accurate.
The ‘Honneur’ guild recently planned to sell data related to the injection of ether into the body to Gu Geon.
I don’t know what happened, but it was because Goo Geon was fanatically obsessed with the report.
However, with only the final step left to stamp the contract, Gu Geon disappeared.
A transaction that could have received more than 10 billion won ended up going to waste in an instant.
Kuuk.
Franco’s grip was getting stronger as time went by.
And the more it happened, the more Cheon Hae-seon had to smile strangely.
‘React to this or not?’
The first time Cheon Hae-seon felt ‘strange pressure’ was nothing else.
Because his strength was so, so weak.
He probably thought he was superior in terms of physical strength because he was a fellow esper, but unfortunately, Cheon Hae-seon’s physical level was far beyond that of an ‘ordinary person’.
Wow.
“Sigh… … !”
Cheon Hae-seon only applied a little bit of force, but the effect was clear.
This is because Franco, who had been hiding his true feelings with a humorous laugh, suddenly groaned.
‘where… … This kind of power… … ?’
Franco hurriedly tried to withdraw his hand, but Cheon Hae-seon did not allow it.
The more he tried to pull his hand away, the tighter his grip became.
“this… … urg… … !!”
The smile on Franco’s face had completely disappeared, and sweat was pouring down from his temples.
While holding hands, Cheon Hae-seon stuck his head out towards Franco, as if exchanging French greetings.
And then I whispered very softly into his ear.
“If you pull out a sword, you have to be prepared to get cut.”
“… … ?!”
Cheon Hae-seon put a little sincerity into his hands,
Grumbling.
“Huh… … !!!”
Soon a terrible groan came from Franco’s mouth.
