Episode 65
“I’ll do it.”
A woman with short red hair who appears to be in her mid-30s smiles bewitchingly.
Oh Jin-ah, a former ‘S’ rank esper.
Wearing a one-piece dress that exposed the curves of her body rather than hiding them, she went behind a man and hugged his neck.
“There will be no problem if we go together, right?”
Her sweet-smelling voice gave me a dizzying feeling just listening to it.
“I’m sure we’ll do it together.”
The sports-haired man she was holding had a strangely thick neck.
The strong body reminiscent of a professional wrestler made anyone guess that he was a knight.
“We need to approach it cautiously.”
The one-eyed man sitting across from me slowly opened his mouth.
At first glance, he was a man with a sharp and handsome face, but the eyepatch he wore on one side gave off a sense of danger.
An ‘S’ rank knight and a man who was previously ranked number 1 in the hunter rankings in Korea.
Hyun Kang.
He was the de facto leader of ‘Tenebra.’
“Ah. “What do you think?”
Oh Jin-ah turns her body left and right as if she is throwing a tantrum.
As a result, her breasts shook sensuously, causing several men’s faces to turn red.
“If you’re Cheon Hae-seon, you don’t really have any affiliation, right? “I’m not killing Goo Geon or Maria Go, so I don’t have to worry about the guild’s retaliation.”
“I’m not worried about retaliation.”
“then?”
“I’m not sure about Cheon Hae-seon’s abilities.”
Kang Hyeon was a cautious and meticulous person.
It was all thanks to him that he was able to grow an organization by uniting ‘S’ rankers with different personalities, and that he made those who only knew how to kill and hit into luxury blades.
‘Tenebra’ has been a clean-cutting agent for major murders, but this time, I felt uncomfortable.
This is because the more Cheon Hae-seon’s data was collected, the more difficult it was to understand.
“The clan he was active in was actually a one-man operation. Even though he is a B-rank knight, it is close to impossible for him to clear all of the poison dungeons with just one healer.”
“I guess Cheon Hae-seon’s heel spur was so ignored. “Like the mulberry flavor I give to myself.”
Despite Kang Hyeon’s warning, Oh Jin Ah just acted coquettishly toward the man she was holding.
Na Ji-hwan, a man with a thick neck and a former ‘A’ rank knight, shrugged his shoulders at Kang Hyeon.
“So you’re saying I’ll be with you. No matter what special talent he has, a healer is a healer after all. “He can’t fight a high-level esper and a knight at the same time.”
That’s probably true.
Although their tendencies were arbitrary, the two people in front of them never missed their target.
The list of kills by those two so far included many ‘A’ rank hunters.
‘If it weren’t for Healer, I would have refused… … .’
Tenebrae offered the apes a fee of 90 billion won.
And the ape immediately gave an OK sign.
Of course, that amount cannot be collected through the Hunter Association’s annual salary.
How much have you done so far to be able to pour 90 billion won into a personal request?
Although it was not his place to comment on other people’s morality, Kanghyeon couldn’t help but laugh.
A fee of 90 billion won.
Although it is an eye-watering amount of money, it means that it is a dangerous task.
However, Oh Jin-ah and Na Ji-hwan seemed to have nothing to see other than money.
If they had pursued ‘honor’, there would be no way they would have become ex-convicts.
For them, the greatest value was money, and the next value was also money.
And ultimately, there was only one principle in the Tenebrae organization that could not be violated.
“The hunter who responds to the request earns the fee and is not involved in whether he lives or dies.”
Kanghyun nodded at the principle mentioned by Na Ji-hwan.
On the topic of ‘A’ Hunter(?), I can speak informally to Kanghyun, who can be considered a captain.
This was also one of Kang Hyeon’s operating policies.
“I have no intention of denying that. “Tenebra only helps its members achieve their mission.”
Kang Hyeon had someone around him deliver a device to Na Ji-hwan.
A state-of-the-art device that increases physical power by half by amplifying the ether in the body.
A feeling of excitement appeared on Na Ji-hwan’s face as he accepted the item.
“Handle it without mistakes.”
“of course. Leader.”
Oh Jin-ah purses her mouth and says ‘hu’ and blows air into Kang-hyeon.
With that, the ‘Cheon Hae-seon murder contract’ negotiations ended.
Esper, who gained fame as an ‘S’ ranker in the past, and ‘A’ ranker Knight are aiming for Cheon Hae-seon’s head.
* * *
-Grrr.
“Why is he like this today?”
Pory makes a meowing sound like a cat purring.
I’ve been like this a few times before.
Even though he was going out today, he was wearing golden movie petals.
It’s something he’s obsessed with, so there’s no way he’ll lose it, but I’m a little worried.
“okay. What’s wrong? “It’s a good day to go get weapons.”

– Kuwang.
“Does it feel good to be back in your hometown?”
In order to go to Dr. Jin’s base, a rite of passage(?) is necessary.
Dr. Jin, who had suffered trauma from his past, was still suffering from paranoia and thought that most people in the world were trying to kill him.
After passing through the long passage, a large iron door appeared, and now familiar machines were aiming at this direction.
Pushuuk.
A deadly poison that would melt the skin of a normal human being is sprayed in an instant.
However, the two creatures(?) here are far from ordinary humans.
“Is it a little different from the old one?”
I calmly took a deep breath and analyzed the ingredients, while Pori sucked the poison and drank it like a fish that has been caught in fresh water.
There is no separate air purifier.
Rattling.
He must have been watching the whole thing on CCTV, but seeing the door open so cautiously made him look like Dr. Jin.
Dr. Jin, who had a cute figure with a protruding stomach, opened his arms towards us.
“Doctor!”
– Kuwang.
“Let’s go in… … !”
Dr. Jin’s happy voice is heard through the gas mask.
Contrary to the original saying that it would take about 15 days, the device production period took quite a long time.
Dr. Jin brought us some homemade coffee and explained the reason.
“Initially, we tried to produce it in the same form as Exa. But you’ve grown tremendously in that time.”
“Oh, that’s it.”
<User information>
<Black ether held: 10,684BA>
<Body enhancement ability: ‘C’>
<Healing ability: ‘S’>
<Telekinesis: ‘S’>
<Owned skills: Dokbo (毒步) – level 2 / Sympathy (交感) – level 1 / Lion’s tail (獅子吼) – Level 1 / Self-defense (護身罡氣) – level max>
Basically, the BA level in the body also increased a lot, but the biggest change was that the poisoner level changed.
The Poisoner level, which had not budged no matter how much it was raised, rose simultaneously with the absorption of the ‘Gold Core’, and even a special name, ‘Summoner’ was created.
As the name suggests, you can now summon the Red Viper, and a haze rises from your palm like gas before it catches fire.
“Actually, someone gave me a gift.”
I told Supervisor Pyo Hyuk-gyu what happened, and Dr. Jin nodded with a serious expression.
He could have told everything from the beginning, but Dr. Jin is a person who is extremely afraid of bringing up things that happened in the past.
If there is any past related to Pyo Hyeok-gyu, Dr. Jin will quickly fall into trauma.
However, as my Poisoner level increased, I decided to carefully reveal what had happened.
Not only the conversation with Hyuk-gyu Pyo, but also Do I-soo, the CEO of Umbrella Industries, and Yoo Ji-won’s runaway.
Especially when talking about Yoo Ji-won, Dr. Jin’s face was very dark.
“It’s an ingredient that affects poisoners. “It’s such a shocking story.”
“Well, it was purified quickly.”
“Kiril said he had a similar experience in the past.”
“Kirill?”
“okay. “I once encountered a monster that looked similar to a human, but I was poisoned without knowing it and ended up vomiting during the fight.”
“omg… … .”
A monster similar to a human.
Yoo Ji-won is human but has become a monster.
Maybe there is some similarity between them.
For now, though, it’s all just speculation.
“In the future, there will inevitably be situations where we have to kill people. “Be strong.”
Dr. Jin patted my shoulder once and then took something out of his arms.
Sweet.
bracelet.
It is a bracelet covered in colorful lights.
This brilliant color was something I could never forget.
Because it is the color of ‘Pranium’ achieved by crossing the line of fire.
“Wow, it’s so pretty. This isn’t a weapon… … .”
“It looks like an ornament, doesn’t it?”
Dr. Jin smiled and offered me a bracelet.
Basically, it had pranium material tightly attached to a black background, and as Dr. Jin said, it looked like an expensive accessory.
Above all, it is convenient in that you do not have to deliberately hold it in your hand.
Now I can continue to carry the bracelet just by snapping it like this.
<A new device has been detected. Applying data… … .>
<Data cannot be confirmed. An update is needed.>
“… … “What?”
“haha. “There is so much data contained in this device that it will take time.”
Dr. Jin’s residence, located in the underground space, was quite spacious.
Enough to test newly installed devices.
I put on the bracelet and moved to the most corner of the room.
I guess I should try adding black ether here first, right?
Key ring.
A cheerful sound is heard from the bracelet, as if a coin is being inserted.
I think it was a similar sound when the weapon touched the pranium.
Soon the bracelet starts to vibrate.
“Have you decided on a name?”
“hmm… … . well… … . Because it’s a bracelet made of pranium material… … “Should I call him Pracel?”
“… … “It seems like it was written too roughly.”
Even though Dr. Jin said that, he didn’t really dissuade me.
Okay Fracell.
Let’s not break apart this time and stay together until we die.
Ugh.
First, I tried to implement a blade shape like the Exa of the past.
A black blade extracted from the black ether extends from the back of Pracell’s hand.
Of course, now that the poisoner level has reached level 2, the length of the blade can be freely adjusted, unlike in the past.
Slurp.
Although the device changed, the white blade of ‘Baekmong’ also remained the same.
Just like the question I asked earlier, it seems like Dr. Jin most likely wants me to not kill anyone.
While I am concerned about Dr. Jin’s weak personality, I also feel grateful.
This is because I conveyed my hope that I would not become a monster.
“good… … . this time… … .”
In the past, it could change into a gun or something else, but Frasel did not seem to have the ability to change its form.
Since it is the hardest metal in the world, it certainly wasn’t easy.
But there is no need to feel sorry.
This is because it is now possible to ‘fire’ black ether through the palm of one’s hand without having to change its form.
Of course, that control has not been easy so far.
Sigh.
“Oh my… … .”
I can’t hide my joy.
The ‘vibration’ generated from the pranium resonates with the haze of the palm, making delicate control possible.
Just like now, you can insert black ether as thick as a thread wherever you want.
What if we could create dozens or hundreds of strands of ether like this?
The overwhelming attack technique I saw the day I met Kirill.
It might also be possible to use ‘dogwoo’.
Jeez.
When I imagine using poisonous rain, an exhilarating shiver passes through my whole body.
An area that felt distant because it was high in the sky now seems to be somewhat within reach.
How to become the best hunter.
The goal that I had doubts about whether I could achieve it is now starting to become visible… … .
Kwakwang!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that,
It was a very sudden change.
An unfamiliar roar was heard in Dr. Jin’s quiet and peaceful residence.
With a strong vibration that made me think it might be an earthquake.
I quickly ran towards Dr. Jin, and there were two unfamiliar men and women standing there.
“Dr. Jin!!!”
And Dr. Jin was being held by one of the man’s hands, his limbs shaking.
