Episode 134
“I said it’s okay.”
“Don’t be like that, listen to me.”
After forcing Chen, who is disgusted, to sit down, he asks Maria to heal him.
Shall… … .
The wound on my neck was deeper than I thought.
If I had been bitten a little deeper, I might have collapsed from excessive bleeding before I could use the Thunderbolt Sword or something.
Yuk Cheol-wan, who was silently watching the healing, spoke to me.
“Was it an intentional strategy?”
“hmm… … . well. “He doesn’t seem like a guy who fights rationally.”
“But if you look back at the battle just now… … “Wasn’t it the standard of the standard?”
“That’s right.”
What is the most efficient way to deal with those who divide their bodies and move in groups?
The rule is to finely chop the object and use telekinesis to deal with it.
flame. Freezing. Electric shock.
These things tend to be more effective the smaller the object they are dealing with.
Chen’s strategy against Nowem was close to the correct answer.
Without anyone telling them, they cut Nowem’s body into small pieces and when they came together, they used the ‘Thunderbolt Sword’ to burn it.
“I’ve already dealt with Nowem a few times… … Either that or… … .”
At the next words, Yuk Cheolwan raised his eyes.
“You should consider him a genius. “At least the sense of battle.”
“He’s a genius… … .”
But the genius was now being treated quite humiliatingly by Bisu.
“Hey Mojil. Sudden behavior is also possible. “What should I do if he runs out first like that?”
Chen stares at Bisu, who is grumbling.
“They said they would cut it all down. “I just did what was asked.”
“… … Huh. “Is it simple or ignorant?”
Bisu asked me, and I answered with a chuckle.
“I think it’s both.”
Chen glanced at me, but perhaps because he was healing, he didn’t respond in particular.
“Not only can I not lie, but one character is definitely a friend.”
“Can’t you lie? really? “You’re telling the truth about everything?”
“uh. instead… … .”
I smiled a little dangerously at Bisu, who was tilting his head.
“If you ask a question that is difficult to answer, I will immediately draw my sword.”
“… … !”
Bisu seemed quite conflicted.
I wanted to see if that was really the case, but I wouldn’t want to risk my life.
After thinking for a moment, she said, ‘I don’t know,’ and then asked Chen.
“What is your relationship with Chairman Lee Sa-soon? Why do you listen to him?”
“… … .”
It’s not as much of a question as asking about gender, but it’s a pretty sensitive question.
After finishing asking the question, Bisu swallowed his saliva with a nervous look on his face.
But fortunately, Chen did not pull out his sword.
“My father was greatly indebted to the leader. “I’m paying it back.”
“Hoo… … .”
Bisu seemed to want to ask more, but did not continue.
He thought that was the optimal level to preserve his neck.
“Even though my head is bad, my senses are good.”
“Cheon Hae-seon. “Are you saying that to me?”
“oh. “As expected, I have a good feeling.”
“die! “I will kill you!”
I easily dodged the party leader she swung and called everyone.
“It’s moving slowly. “I think I’m roughly healed.”
Even if the wound is the same, when an S-rank healer and a knight meet, the healing speed increases dramatically.
Before I knew it, there wasn’t even a small scratch left on Chen’s neck.
Sigh.
Without even a typical greeting, Chen gets up and trudges away.
The skills are clear, but you can’t expect team play at all like that.
“Chen. “Next time you meet someone, just wait.”
“Why?”
“It’s not because I don’t trust you. “I’m trying to give you a good experience.”
“?”
Chen blinks his eyes a few times.
No matter how great your talent is, the people you face in the future will be much stronger than they are now.
Enough to turn Nowem, who was difficult to deal with, into ‘that kind of trash mob’.
In that sense, we need to show this guy some of our abilities.
Because trust is born from one experience rather than a thousand words.

“Once you taste it, it won’t be easy to leave.”
* * *
“Hasn’t there been much comment from other countries?”
“haha. Nicholas. Your biggest weakness has been revealed. “The habit of buying and worrying.”
A bald black man bursts into laughter at Nicholas.
Ousmane Dembele.
He was the executive in charge of this ‘Stairs to Hell’ project.
“There is no problem at all. There is not a single country that is wary of the addition of one member to the Korean national team. Moreover, the hunter they requested was a person named ‘Chen’ from Taiwan. Nicholas As you know, Taiwan is a place in the hunter world… … .”
“It’s like a wasteland.”
Nicholas nods in obedience.
Taiwan has been unable to resolve the issue within its own country and has been receiving support from WHPO for several years to resolve the issue.
There was nothing to expect from the level of a hunter who spent time in such a country.
No, perhaps even the ‘S’ tier evaluated in Taiwan was questionable.
In order to send it to the World Hunter Forum, I may have overestimated Chen’s record.
‘but… … .’
Nevertheless, Nicholas could not hide his discomfort.
Because I was very concerned about one man’s actions throughout the series.
The man who came to see him as if he had been waiting for him as soon as he had a disagreement with British Hunter Roy.
Cheon Hae-seon.
Cheon Hae-seon certainly doesn’t know that Taiwan’s hunters probably have mediocre skills.
However, Cheon Hae-seon specifically requested Chen to join.
It even scratches WHPO’s itch for ‘fairness of the selection process’.
It was a very reasonable proposal in which both parties got what they wanted, but at the same time there was an uneasy feeling about it.
A party that competes in an unfair manner actually scratches the association’s itch?
This was the part where Nicholas felt uncomfortable.
“I thought you were curious, so I looked through Chen’s records. However, other than receiving the ‘S’ tier, there was no special activity history. “Unless the Taiwanese Association is stupid, would they just let a talented hunter rot away?”
“… … .”
“It’s clear that Chen’s tier has some bubbles. Even if one bubble rises in Irregular, the result will not change.”
No matter how you look at it, Dembele is right.
Although he had not completely dispelled the doubts in his mind yet, Nicolas nodded towards Dembele.

Bang!! Bang!!
A loud noise that made me think it was a plane bombing somewhere.
An attack containing perhaps even stronger physical force than that is directed at Chen.
“I’m really going to die if I do that… … .”
Bisu mutters with a serious face.
The key to the second floor of ‘Stairs to Hell’ is in the middle of the collapsed temple.
A large monster located in a temple.
If you kill him, a staircase leading to the second floor will naturally form.
<Croon / BOSS / type – combat type / kill difficulty 9 stars (★★★★★★★★★) / physical level ‘S’ / other level ‘A’ / exclusive skill – splash>
bang!!
The problem was that the monster was so big and strong.
Large and small tentacles extend out 360 degrees under large temple-sized eyeballs.
Some of the tentacles were in the air and some were digging into the ground, targeting Chen.
bang!!!
The identity of the roaring sound that continues to be heard.
That was the impact sound made when Kroon’s tentacle and Chen’s sword collided.
Surprisingly, instead of avoiding Kroon’s tentacles, Chen raised his blade and faced it head-on.
Bisu, covering his ears with both hands, asks me.
“Is that knife also made of pranium? “It’s so hard?!”
“no. That’s probably just an ordinary knife. “It’s probably not even a hunter device.”
“what? “Is that possible?”
This is what I want to ask.
No matter how knowledgeable you are in the operation of ether, if you inject ether into an object that is not a hunter device, it will soon be damaged or explode.
However, the ugly-looking blade that Chen was holding was receiving all of his power.
‘Is the way we handle ether different from ours…? … .’
However, that didn’t mean the war situation looked good.
The ‘sword energy’ it was using was so strong that it blocked Kroon’s tentacles, but its body was staggering every time it engaged with it.
It wasn’t that bad when I collided with the pracell made of pranium that I wore on my wrist.
What this meant was that Kroon’s tentacles were strong enough to be compared to the material of Planium.
bang!!
The end of the splendid sword dance connects with Kroon’s tentacles.
And soon, red blood trickles down from the end of Chen’s lips.
Whether it’s ether or something he’s using, it’s natural that internal injuries will accumulate if you get shocked like this.
furthermore… …
Phew!
Kroon, who had been attacking honestly, suddenly began using a diversionary strategy.
In addition to the tentacles flying from the front, two tentacles rose from the ground, aiming for Chen’s sides.
Hwiik.
This time, Chen was also in awe and had no choice but to step back.
He managed to avoid the tentacles, but ended up with a long stab wound on his side.
“That head. So, don’t act like a maverick.”
Bisu frowns and speaks as if chewing.
Even though I warned him not to go out alone, as soon as Chen discovered Kroon, he ran towards him without any delay with his sword drawn.
There’s only one reason why he doesn’t listen to me.
It was ‘I can’t trust the abilities of other Irregulars.’
It is a fact that all of Chen’s colleagues know that he is the type of person who cannot lie.
His colleagues could only shake their heads at his sincere disbelief.
“Get ready quickly.”
“… … “I really don’t feel like it.”
Bisu activates the ether inside the body with a scowl on his face.
From the looks of it, Chen didn’t seem to know what abilities the ‘Irregulars’ had.
Well, I guess they’re talking about distrust or something like that.
The ability that other hunters would be drooling over and stomping their feet in hopes of obtaining it is right in front of their eyes.
“I ran into something on the way, so I’ll take care of it.”
Bisu smiled seductively and raised one arm.
Shuaa.
The earring-type device she was wearing began to emit a bright light.
Her specialty, ‘Buff’, which was once mastered, flew towards Chen.
“… … ?!”
Chen’s sharply stretched eyebrows flutter wildly.
I don’t know what the cause is, but I sensed something rising within my body.
Chen slowly turned his gaze to me, and I pointed to the dagger with a nod.
Bisu probably wanted to ask what happened, but had to quickly turn around due to the tentacles rising from both left and right.
Swish.
The tentacles that had barely grazed my body before now split the air, leaving a gap of about a span.
You might think it was only a handful at most, but it meant a lot.
Isn’t it said that in a fight between top players, the difference between victory and defeat can be determined by even a single piece of paper?
Chen was astonished at his changed abilities, while the ‘Irregulars’ were delighted.
“What can I do? “Once you fall in love with this body, you won’t be able to get away from it.”
You are casually saying things that can easily be misunderstood.
But what Bisu said was true.
Hunters with ‘buff’ abilities are bound to be welcomed wherever they go.
If you experience your strengthened abilities even once, you will never forget the taste of the ‘buff’ from then on.
Ugh.
Chen’s blade, which had been tinged with blue light, glows a chilling blue.
Even without feeling the energy of ether, it was as obvious as seeing fire that his sword energy had become even more powerful.
“Hwaap!”
A cheerful spirit that had rarely been heard before came out of Chen’s mouth.
It’ll be exciting.
It will be exciting.
It will feel like something that was blocked has been cleared all at once.
The current sound of cheers is probably the result of such unconsciousness.
Okay.
Okay.
All the times he had struggled so far were insignificant, and Chen began to cut down Kroon’s tentacles like fallen leaves.
The sword dance he performed became more splendid, and his sword energy became bluer.
“It’s beautiful… … .”
Chen’s movements were enjoyable to watch, as Maria, who did not say anything during the battle, moved her lips.
grasp.
Chen cut down all the tentacles around him.
The guy jumped high towards Kroon’s big eyes.
