Episode 70
A car bearing the markings of the Interstellar Federation left the freeway.
A road extending straight to the north.
Beyond the window, you can see a view of several large stores next to each other.
It is an outlet located in Paju, Gyeonggi-do.
‘Gatera in Paju.’
I asked Martin to assist me at the gate.
Luckily, I was able to get a gate access ticket the very next day.
［Paju Jeokseong-myeon Gate］
Grade: A
Terrain: Temperate Forest
Size: 5〜6km
* Monster types
Ogre, Ogre Mage. Others cannot be confirmed.
In the car heading to Paju.
Ellie briefed the gate information.
“Because the gate occurred not long ago, there is insufficient information.”
“How long has it been?”
“About an hour.”
Haaam-
Ellie stretched while speaking.
“You look tired.”
“I couldn’t sleep a wink because I was busy cleaning up after the auction.”
Pale skin and dark circles under the eyes.
Ellie’s face was full of fatigue.
“Leave it to someone else and get some rest.”
“That’s not possible. I said I would be in full charge of Mincheol Hunter.”
-I’m sorry for having such a bad owner!
Fenrir stumbles! He barked.
“Foot, no. It’s my job.”
A slender hand gently strokes Fenrir’s head.
-It’s so hot!
ha-.
A deep sigh escaped my lips.
I wonder if this guy is a monster of the same generation as Grandmaster Jormungand.
Sometimes I had doubts.
I passed the straight national highway and entered a narrow road.
‘The atmosphere is different from an outlet.’
Jeokseong-myeon, Paju-si.
Most of the private houses had slate roofs built in the 1970s.
Even my hometown isn’t like this.
I passed the village hall and headed inside.
A blue dimensional gap is visible.
It was a gate.
Rice Rice Rice Rice
Class A gate opened in Paju City.
I stepped into the so-called [Jeokseong-myeon Gate].
The 20m tall broadleaf trees were crowded together and obstructed visibility.
Tree branches shaking here and there.
Is it because of the wind?
Or maybe it’s because of the monster in the forest.
Occasionally, a strong wind would blow inside the gate and shake the forest.
‘Well, this is comfortable.’
Desert of martyrdom.
The bottom of the sea where your feet can’t reach.
I went through an ordeal in the extreme environment of the tower.
The extent to which the field of view was limited did not seem difficult.
Ugh-
The gate surface shimmered continuously.
Support team leader Younghyun Jeong.
In addition, the entire support team that took care of minor tasks during the hunt entered the gate.
“It’s been a while since I saw you.”
“Hehe. I heard you entered the tower.
“You came out without dying?”
“As you can see, my skills are quite outstanding.”
“Seeing as how you’re still talking so foolishly, I guess it’s Mr. Jeon. LOL!”
Younghyun Jeong tapped my shoulder.
Innocent action.

The heart of trust is embedded in crude words.
“I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve been working again.”
“What? Have you been resting for a while?”
“Of course. I’m looking after Mincheol Hunter.
I was so overworked. Isn’t that right?”
“I’m sorry. I’ve been chasing you around all day.”
“I even forgot my wife’s face.”
The craftsmen from the support team unanimously criticized me.
These guys.
I haven’t really tasted the spiciness yet.
“Now it’s going to get harder.”
I moved forward while uttering words of warning.
Fenrir followed by his side, wagging his tail.
It stuck.
-master. What should I do?
“caliber.”
I spoke clearly.
［Experience points are gained according to the contribution of characteristics to play.
Although Fenrir has strong power.
If this guy gets involved in the hunt, the experience you can gain will decrease.
‘Because the number of monsters is fixed.’
Every day at midnight, a certain number is regenerated.
but.
I had no intention of continuing the strategy for more than two days.
One per day.
It was better to attack a new gate every day than to wait for the monster to respawn.
Kiing
Fenrir groaned.
-I’m bored.
“If you happen to miss the monster, then you will protect the people.”
Woof woof! This guy barks like he’s happy.
okay.
You have to pay for your food too.
‘If this guy has your back, there’s nothing to worry about.’
Unlike during the Black Gate, Fenrir maintains his sanity.
If they went all out, they could not be confident of victory even with the second liberation of the Dark Star.
Sabak.
Far away.
The tree branches shook.
A ray of wind passes by my cheek
went.
‘You’re hiding yourself.’
I was not fooled by the wind’s movement.
Senses maximized by Seongcheon Jogye Craftsmanship.
I sensed the presence of a monster hiding among the bushes.
Although its large size was well hidden, it was clearly visible to me, as if I could grasp it with my hand.
“It’s a sure win for the player.”
He kicked the ground and launched himself into the air.
Step on a thick tree branch and leap again.
I ran quickly towards the place where the monster was hiding.
Among the lushly grown leaves of broad-leaved trees.
A green-skinned monster about 7 meters tall was hiding in the bushes and glaring at me.
I used [Eye of Truth].
ogre

As I had been briefed in advance, there was an ogre inside the gate.
Stat total 800.
This figure is 350 higher than Yeti.
“Kuuuuuu!”
As it got closer, the ogre let out a suppressed roar.
The lush leaves flutter at the sound of shouting.
Coo thump!
Every time the ogre took a step, there was a loud sound.
“Prey. Eat!”
The guy swung the club in his hand sharply.
‘If you swing that, it will turn into a rat and eat you.
‘There won’t be anything.’
I transformed the form of the dark star.
［Dark Star – Unicorn’s Horn Spear］
2m long.
A long spear made from the horn of a unicorn was held in my hand.
The shape of the window rotates like a screw and has grooves carved into it.
I breathed chaos into the unicorn’s horn spear.
The black energy spun along the grooves and gained strength.
Pazzutz!
I showed off my singing skills.
A black spear that shoots out as it cuts through the wind.
The chaotic energy in the spear continued to rotate, increasing its destructive power.
Quaaaang!
A burst of drinking broke out.
The club that touched the window was torn to pieces by millimeters.
‘This is the true way of singing.’
Musical singing method.
A martial artist who symbolizes the Shandong music family, the conqueror of the Shandong region.
It is a subversive singing method that honestly aims from the front and crushes the enemy.
The option attached to the unicorn’s horn spear increased the destructive power of the stab.
It went well with the musical singing style.
“Kuuuuu!”
The ogre did not back down.
A forest tyrant who knows no fear when it comes to battle.
Even though my hands were bare, I wasn’t embarrassed at all.
He swung his fist.
“That attitude is very good.”
A smile appeared on my lips.
This is Dark Star’s first real battle after completing its second liberation.
I’m glad I’m not a boring person.
［Dark Star – Atlas Gauntlet］
Blackened iron gloves.
A large amethyst was encrusted on the back of his hand.
A gauntlet, a type of equipment that covers the hand.
Although it is originally armor, there are also ‘weapons’ made specifically for those who specialize in fighting.
‘He’s just the right guy for me.’
I faced the ogre’s fist and unleashed a fist.
[Atlas Gauntlet – Built-in skill: Uses manpower.]
[Consumes 100 Chaos.]
Amethyst radiated a magical light.
all.
A fist stretched out in front.
The atmosphere around it becomes distorted.
Manpower (引方).
As if the N and S poles met, the ogre’s body was pulled towards me.
The guy’s posture breaks down.
The trajectory of the fist aimed at the front changed at will and passed by me.
On the other hand, the Blue Lightning Fist dug into the Ogre’s side, which had an empty guard.
like.
It became a form of offering my body to my fist.
Qarring! There was a sound of thunder striking.
The epicenter was the ogre’s side.
“K-Kuuuuu……
The ogre groaned and fell to the ground.
The area where the blue-hued blast fist touched was completely black, but looking at the outside, it looked fine.
It wasn’t inside.
Ogre’s thunderbolt created during the chaos
It stirred my intestines and made me feel sick.
I looked down at Dark Star.
‘also. ‘The second liberation was rewarding.’
Characteristics of the weapon.
Unique skill.
I recreated the image engraved in my memory.
A horned spear that increases the power of the Akachang technique, and a gauntlet that breaks down the opponent’s posture with manpower.
A weapon that will maximize the effectiveness of martial arts is
There were plenty more than that.
“You did a good job too.”
He transformed his form with a sword and struck the ogre’s neck.
Wow!
The unique grade black-edged knife cut through the ogre’s tough skin, muscles, and hard bones without difficulty.
“W-what have we just seen?!”
“You caught an ogre that easily? I can’t believe it!”
The support team gaped.
“Hey, Mr. Jeong. Was Mincheol Hunter originally that strong?”
“No. It wasn’t that bad even a month ago.”
Support team leader Jeong Young-hyeon shook his head left and right in denial.
Hey. Guys.
I didn’t challenge the A-level gate for nothing.
Seeing the surprised looks of the support team made me realize that I had become stronger.
bruise!
Suddenly Fenrir came running towards me.
all.
Even though it was a poodle with short legs, its speed was as fast as a horse.
“Why are you coming? I told you to protect those people.”
-master. Can I eat that soul?
“Souls… eat them?”
-That monster. Although it may be lacking, it has soul.
“No. So you’re saying that soul-eating is possible?”
-•huh!
What Fenrir said was shocking.
all.
Soul Predation.
It is a unique ability that is only passed down to some of the demons of Pandemonium.
Devouring the soul and increasing strength.
It is the ability to overcome growth limits and constantly become stronger.
but.
There were also drawbacks.
‘The possibility of being eaten by thoughts increases.’
The thoughts of the soul do not disappear but attach themselves to the being that preyed on the soul.
When those thoughts encroach on the original soul, it loses its demonic status and declines.
‘That won’t happen to this guy.’
God Predator.
This is the nickname given to Fenrir.
Even though the soul’s status has decreased, the karma accumulated in the past does not disappear.
Just the thoughts of a monster.
It will not be able to shake the spirit of Fenrir, who has regained his senses.
“Eat.”
-king! thank you for this food!
Fenrir opened his mouth wide.
Sa■aa’a’i’-
A whitish energy came out of the ogre’s corpse.
It’s the soul of someone who just died.
［Ummmm
.]
A soul that makes strange noises.
Fenrir took a deep breath.
The whitish energy could not resist and was sucked into the cute mouth.
Tsk tsk tsk.
Fenrir quenched his appetite.
-master! Because I ate the soul, the seal was slightly released!
I used the Eye of Truth to check Fenrir’s condition.
‘It’s true.’
Fenrir’s physical abilities have increased.
Strength 1. And Horsepower 1.
Although it is slight, there has been a change in his body for the first time since he was taken from the Black Gate.
‘We can return Fenrir to his prime.
noodle……!’
A monster from the mythical era.
It is a being comparable to Jormungand and a monster that preyed on gods.
I spoke to Fenrir as if I were swearing.
“I’ll get you a lot of food.”
-lol. The owner is the best!
Fenrir continued to wag his tail and rub his head at my words.
