Episode 55
[You have to hurry, Jieun. One KTX train has already… … !]
“Sickness. Don’t talk to me because my asshole is already on fire!! “Huh, huh.”
This guy is all good, but he nags so much that it’s a problem.
Ko Ji-eun, an A-ranker from the ‘Blue Sword’ guild, was thinking about this and her eyebrows were fluttering.
Ko Ji-eun is the elite knight of the Blue Sword Guild.
A massive sword and an exciting fighting style that do not suit a slender body.
With her unique charisma, Ko Ji-eun became a celebrity enough to have her own personal fan club.
She was now running with a frown on her face.
This type of mobile warfare was the method she hated the most.
It’s not because of the weight of the large sword.
It’s just annoying to have to go to each monster and kill them.
Her preferred fighting method was to drive herself into dangerous areas and kill the demon beasts all at once.
Although she says she is reluctant to engage in mobile warfare, she is basically an ‘A’ rank knight, so her main power is faster than most cars.
Ko Ji-eun was soon able to visually see the KTX train, and as always, harsh swear words came out.
“Shut up.”
Four carriages of the train had already collapsed.
She sent a message to the guild leader with narrowed eyes.
“It was the work of Taurus who broke through the cordon. The number of injured is expected to reach dozens. The dead too… … I think there will be. “I’ll send you the coordinates, so please send three healers.”
[I’ll put it in right away. No need for combat resources?]
“I do not need.”
[Taurus. Even though Genega’s level is low… … .]
Pop.
Ko Ji-eun cut off communication.
I also think that nagging at this level is a disease.
“You will have to pay for making me run away.”
Ko Ji-eun also knew that Taurus’ ‘Charge’ skill had a destructive power of physical grade ‘A’ or higher.
However, this type of power struggle was Go Ji-eun’s preferred style.
Either your horn will be broken, or my bones will be broken.
It might be dangerous if they take a direct hit from their attack, but the Blue Sword Guild’s current strength was not in a situation where they would blindly ask for support.
This is because so many monsters came out that the cordon, which had never been breached before, collapsed.
Crash.
Ko Ji-eun takes out a great sword from her back and leaps.
She flew tens of meters in one leap, ignoring the fact that she was holding a great sword in her hand.
Just as the great sword, which seemed to be well over 2 meters long, was about to sparkle in the sun, she had to relax her arms.
“huh?”
Even when I saw it from a distance, I felt a sense of heterogeneity.
Because the Taurus were gathered in a huddle, attacking various places without stopping for a moment.
But when I got closer and checked, the Taurus were sitting down.
No, beyond collapsing, he was already in danger.
With his neck turned in a strange way.
“this… … why… … .”
Is this an aftereffect of a collision with the KTX?
Ko Ji-eun thought about that, but then shook her head roughly.
Although the train’s rigidity has become much stronger than in previous times, it is not strong enough to withstand the ‘rush’ of the Taurus.
In fact, I should be thankful that it ended to the point where the train compartment didn’t fly away and fell over.
‘It certainly looks like it collided with something… … .’
Ko Ji-eun turned her eyes and began to take stock of the surrounding scene.
First of all, I should be thankful that there was no secondary damage.
She reconnected to the network she had disconnected.
Beep.
[You told me not to cut off communication during battle… … !!!]
“Situation over.”
[…] … already?!]
“I didn’t do it. When will the healer come?”
[There are too many injured hunters. First of all, a C ranker is going.]
“what? “How are you going to treat so many injured people?”
[We are barely rebuilding the cordon, so please take command of the people.]
“Such an irresponsible piece of shit… … .”
The moment Go Ji-eun was about to say another vicious curse, her mouth suddenly stopped.
This is because people were coming out of the train in groups.
“uh?”
Although we live in an era where gates and monsters are familiar, seeing and experiencing the horrors are on a different level.
All people who take a direct hit from the demon beast fall into a state of panic.
But the expressions on the faces of the people on the train were strangely calm.
They even lined up in two rows(!) and slowly carried their luggage.
“What the hell is going on?”
Ko Ji-eun approached the people with wide eyes.

She shouted to everyone around her with ether in her voice.
“everyone! The healer will arrive soon! Who saw a critically ill patient in her own train compartment, please raise her hand!”
“uh? Ko Ji-eun is a hunter! “I saw it in a commercial!”
“That’s not important now, the patient… … .”
“There are no patients.”
A man who looked like a college student pointed inside the train with his thumb.
“The person inside healed everyone. Please solve that bull as well.”
“to?!”
Ko Ji-eun could not believe her ears.
‘Defeating Taurus’ and ‘Healing’.
Aren’t these two abilities that cannot coexist?
What’s the point in distinguishing between hunters if you can kill them and heal them alone?
“Blue Sword Guild member?”
Confused Go Ji-eun hears a voice in her ears.
A voice that is younger than that of the college student you just spoke to.
A sharp-looking man leaped from the train and landed in front of her.
“Most patients recovered. “There were about nine people in critical condition, but they are okay now.”
Healing nine critically ill patients in an instant?
Ko Ji-eun had been reluctant to study during her school days, but now she had to use her brain to its full potential.
A healer who can quickly heal critically ill patients and take care of dozens of injured people at once.
Considering its healing power and time, it should definitely be an ‘A’ rank or higher.
She took a close look at the face of the man in front of her.
Although he looked a bit sharp, he was a handsome man I hadn’t seen in a while.
‘Son Jun-ki… … No, you’re more handsome than him.’
There aren’t many ‘A’ rank healers, but there is only one healer in Korea who is this tall and handsome.
A healer who appears brilliantly from the moment of his appearance and is taking heroic steps by clearing the ‘Poison Dungeon’.
The hunter that reporters say will do anything to get an interview.
“Cheon Hae-seon… … “Are you a hunter?”
“yes.”
Cheon Hae-seon gave a short answer and then jumped around the rice fields.
what.
Why are you doing that?
But just as curiosity passed, something caught Go Ji-eun’s eyes.
‘It flies really well.’
Although she hated running, Go Ji-eun also had great knowledge of ‘new methods’.
However, Cheon Hae-seon’s movements were more special than ‘new techniques’.
Something different from the movements of typical high-level hunters.
He realized that Cheon Hae-seon’s ‘independence’ was not an ordinary move.
Cheon Hae-seon, who brought something from the rice field ridge, stood in front of Go Ji-eun again.
In both of his hands, he was holding something that looked like a cone-shaped iron ball.
“I got it before I arrived from the Blue Sword… … “I can take it, right?”
Only then did Ko Ji-eun realize that the object was the horn of Taurus.
The Taurus horn was so strong that it was an ideal material for hunter devices.
It shows excellent performance in weapons such as swords and spears, as well as shields.
However, whether or not Go Ji-eun should take the horn was not an important issue at all.
“That person said earlier, did the Taurus really get caught by a hunter in the shallow seas?”
“yes.”
“Uh, how?”
Taurus’ kill difficulty is 4 stars.
The physical level reaches ‘B’ and the ‘rush’ skill has even more power.
You killed not one, but four of those guys?
Healer alone?
Go Ji-eun can see Cheon Hae-seon gently scratching the back of her neck.
That movement is something she does sometimes too.
When it’s too much of a hassle to explain.
“Just, whatever.”
“Just… … what… … ?”
Ko Ji-eun suppressed a laugh at the obvious sign of annoyance.
Not even the head of the Blue Sword Guild treated him so insensitively.
The young man in front of me didn’t seem to be interested in anything other than the Taurus horn.
“The Blue Sword Guild will take care of the core. As you can see, I don’t have any hands.”
“No, please explain in detail… … .”
“The nearest station from here is…” … Let’s see… … .”
He pretends to search for something, but his hands are still the same.
If you do that, you will automatically see something.
For some reason, I feel like he’s a strange guy.
“You have to go to the terminal, right? “I need to get my license quickly or something.”
After grumbling like that, Cheon Hae-seon slightly lowered his head towards Ko Ji-eun.
“Please lead the people here. “It’s your jurisdiction, so you’ll do well.”
“Now, now, just wait a minute.”
“yes?”
Ko Ji-eun instinctively blocked his path.
This is because Kim Seung-hwan, the representative of the ‘Blue Sword’ guild, came to mind.
If Kim Seung-hwan finds out that he let Cheon Hae-seon go even after meeting him, he might nag himself all year long.
Aren’t all guilds working hard to recruit Cheon Hae-seon?
Are you missing him right in front of your eyes?
I couldn’t do that, neither for the future of the Blue Sword Guild nor for my own mental health.
“It was fate that you helped us like this, but I thought I would help you on your way.”
“… … how?”
Go Ji-eun smiled in front of Cheon Hae-seon for the first time.
Are we short on hunters or short on money?
This was something Seunghwan Kim used to say.
“To the sky.”
* * *
“Driver’s license age restrictions do not apply to hunters. “You can get it tomorrow.”
“oh. is it so?”
“I never thought that Hunter Cheonhaesun of the world wouldn’t know that fact. “Didn’t you read the guidebook you received at the qualification ceremony?”
“I don’t really like reading books.”
“Ahaha. Oh dear. “I feel like I helped Hunter Cheon Hae-seon in many ways today.”
“Iknow, right.”
Ko Ji-eun chuckled as she watched the conversation between Kim Seung-hwan and Cheon Hae-seon.
The porridge suits me better than I thought?
As soon as the situation was resolved, Kim Seung-hwan arrived at the scene by helicopter and soon turned towards Gaejeong-dong, where Cheon Hae-seon lived.
For Cheon Hae-seon, who didn’t even have a license, let alone a car, transportation was a pretty sweet offer, and as expected, Kim Seung-hwan rushed over and loaded him on a helicopter.
She was shocked to see Kim Seung-hwan nagging Cheon Hae-seon as soon as they spoke, but Cheon Hae-seon obediently listened to him.
I feel like I have built up a lot of ‘resistance’ to nagging.
Does someone in the family nag Cheon Hae-seon a lot?
‘Is that possible?’
Even though he doesn’t belong to any guild, isn’t Cheon Hae-seon treated as a ‘hero’ by people?
I couldn’t imagine being scolded by my family.
“If Cheon Hae-seon joins our Blue Sword Guild, will a private helicopter be a problem? haha.”
The problem with Kim Seung-hwan was that he was a Too Much nag, but in other respects he was blameless.
His cool impression and cheerful personality were typical of a ‘bright human type’.
“I have no intention of joining yet. “There are also clans I already belong to.”
“I’m not asking you to decide right away. Our Blue Sword Guild plans to aggressively expand its jurisdiction starting this year. “We plan to win part of the Seoul area allocated to Glory Guild.”
“Glory Guild?
Cheon Hae-seon, who was looking out the window, turns his head when he hears the word Glory Guild.
It was a clear expression of interest.
Oh, by the way, I heard that the neighborhood where Cheon Hae-seon lives is called Gaejeong-dong.
Although her eyes were focused on her cell phone, Ko Ji-eun pricked her ears and listened carefully to their conversation.
“yes. This is confidential… … .”
Kim Seung-hwan leaned closer to Cheon Hae-seon.
That’s what you’re talking about.
Ko Ji-eun also recently heard this from Kim Seung-hwan.
An incident that the association, the media, and the Glory Guild are desperately trying to hide.
“They say one of the Glory Guild laboratories was blown up. That in itself is a serious issue, but what is more significant is… … .”
Cheon Hae-seon’s pupils shook slightly at the next words.
“It is said that one hunter who entered the lab that day went missing. Yoo Ji-won. “He is the son of the vice president of the Hunter Association.”
