Chapter 5. Abnormal Variation

Yeah. Im doing a Hunter!

Once the goal is set, the steps are light.

My right knee was already screaming after walking for a while, but I just ignored it.

Look at this. What kind of labor would you do with a body that cant even run? Its hard to even live a daily life because I have a lot of empty memories.

The skin on my face is not moving, but I am very happy now.

Honestly, until lunch today, I didnt know what to do in the future.

The owner of this body is very poor, and all of his wealth disappeared after paying for the soup

The moment I was thinking about how to make money and supply nutrients. Hope appeared.

I found out that there is a job called Hunter on Earth.

Now that its like this, Ill make a living by hunting with magic!

Of course, that important magic doesnt come out right now. This will gradually be fixed with time.

First of all, its not like I cant think of a solution at all.

The number of Beginner Killers should be sufficient.

I stopped walking home and turned my head.

No, do I really need to only aim for Beginner Killers?

I had an idea that suddenly came to mind.

The Beginner Killer was said to be a C-Class monster. If so, it is assumed that there are other types of class.

Perhaps thats the location of the gate.

Gate.

It is obvious where the hunting grounds of Earths hunters are.

Theres a monster living in there.

Magic casting was blocked, but mana flow detection is a separate ability.

It didnt take long to pinpoint the location of the gate.

Even now, I found one that I could go right away if I made up my mind.

Then is there a reason not to go?

Of course not. For future activities, it is necessary to analyze Earths monsters in advance.

Ill have to take a peek at the level of the monsters living nearby.

With this magical power detection ability, I should be able to detect danger even from a distance.

I turned on the spur of the moment. In order to put the thought into practice,

****

Kim Kiryeo arrived at a nearby hill shortly after.

He thought the distance was close to see with his eyes, but it took a lot of time to walk with human legs.

Hoo, I almost passed out because of the slope.

He wiped his sweat and looked at the gate in front of him.

I had a hard time because the tape was wrapped around the trees.

The entrance to the dungeon, which the humans named Gate, was still scattering faint waves of mana.

Anyway, earthlings aesthetic sense is strange. Why decorate plants?

So, should he go in now?

He took a breath and entered the gate without delay.

Wow! Its quite spacious inside.

The voice coming out of the gate became smaller and smaller.

Kiryeo disappeared into the dungeon like that. And after about 10 minutes, the sound of footsteps echoed on the quiet hillside.

Soon a group of about four people approached.

Hello? Manager?

A man in his early 20s, who was at the forefront of the group, picked up his cell phone. What follows is a simple call.

We just arrived at the gate.

Yes, Yoonseung-ah. Are there any civilians around?

Its alright. The control line is well drawn.

The person called Yoonseung looked around.

Bright yellow warning tape, recognizable to any human being, wrapped around the trees around the gate.

Besides, who comes close to the gate where the abnormal transition occurred?

Anyway, its because of that punk mutation. Just this month alone, how many grades have been reversed?

The voice over the receiver sounded very worried about it.

Dont worry. Ill start investigating right away.

Gathering fragmentary information, the people gathered now seemed to be a team of hunters gathered to investigate the anomaly that had occurred at this gate.

However, they didnt react even when they heard that the gates risk level had changed.

Dont hesitate, lets go in quickly! Its only an F-Class here.

It seems theres a reason for that.

Should I get a drink after work? Its Friday night.

We didnt even start, but that sound again

Soon their figure disappeared beyond the swarming gated light.

Ugh, its musty. Whats a cave in this midsummer?

Inside the gate was a completely different world from the outside world.

A damp, dark cave where bats are about to pop out.

Stalactites were occasionally seen on the high ceilings.

I measured it, and the magic density inside it is at the level of a D-Class dungeon.

Its always like that. Now its almost a rule. If theres something wrong with the gate, it jumps two levels at a time.

There are many times when it only changes 1 level.

They move forward, recording how the inside of the dungeon had changed.

The man with the shield standing at the front spoke.

I think were going too fast. Shall we slow down a bit?

Why?

Weve walked quite a bit, but I cant see any traces of the monsters, so

It was a voice that sounded cautious.

But his proposal had little effect on the party. Rather, one of the team members just slaps and punches his shiny scalp and jokes.

You punk. Why are you young guys always discouraged like that? Our team is an A-Class hunter! What are we worried about when Ahn Yoonseung is here?

The investigators thought the same thing.

Most of the hunters gathered here are B-Class. Even the team leader is an A-Classl rising star, so what is there to worry about?

So they wanted to finish this troublesome investigation as quickly as usual.

Ah, Hyung. Still. Its a dungeon.

I got it. I got it. We just have to be careful

But, it was the moment when they were chatting.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

A regular roar followed, and the surroundings began to shake like an earthquake.

This sound was enough to silence the investigators conversation.

What

The first to speak was the Hunter who was holding a staff.

He turned his head away and straightened his neck to find out what was making the sound. And finally, he figured out who made the noise

Aaaaaagh!

He opened his eyes wide, and let out a scream that he couldnt swallow.

****

Aaaaaagh!

Hmm?

Did I hear it wrong?

I think I heard something.

Kim Kiryeos ears are not trustworthy. Now that I think about it, the people of Alphauri have really excellent hearing.

I listened for a moment to the small noise that passed by in an instant, then lost interest and turned my head again.

However, the situation didnt change by turning the eyes back.

Its already been a few minutes since I entered this unidentified gate.

I think I came in pretty deep

I definitely came all the way here to observe monsters.

But strangely enough, I havent met any living creatures so far.

This place was just a quiet cave with humidity that I like.

Ah. Did I misunderstand the gate?

I cant even meet the monsters. Its not like theres anything else special about the cave.

But whats the point of staying here?

I turned around, showing my disappointment. It was to give up and return to the entrance.

Hmm?

However, as I got closer to the entrance, I felt a strange magical power.

This small, crude, energetic mana. Thats right. Its human beings.

Who came in? Its Hunter, right?

I cant speed up my walking because Ive moved quite a bit today.

So, while half limping on my broken leg, I slowly approached in the direction where I detected the mana.

I could finally hear the sound as I got closer to a certain extent.

H, hiiiik!

Heuk, heukh Hes dead. He died in one shot Oppa!

Keuk!

Oh, but what the hell is this?

It became clear when the sound could be heard clearly. This is unusual.

D, did a monster appear?

Lets get a grip on the situation first.

I quickly hid myself behind a nearby rock.

Where? Where is the scary monster?

The distance is too far to see the scene clearly from this rock, but instead I listened and focused on the sound information.

T, that. I saw it through Pixie Glass Its an A, A-Class. Its a monster with an A magic point

What are you talking about! Why does an A appear in a D-Class dungeon!

Yoonseung-ah! Are you okay?

Damn it. I dont know half of the words those earthlings uttered.

Frustrated, I lifted my head to examine the situation. The first thing that caught my eye was a bald man covered in blood.

Everything looks like a mess.

Wounds like being hit by something huge.

The man who had been pinned against the wall, gasping for breath, straightened his shield and stood up. Shield? Is that a human tool?

Wow, its primitive.

However, even with a shield, it is not reliable at all because he staggers like that.

Then, what made that man so bloody?

Hey, e even an A-class guy who has awakened as a defense cant stop it How do we deal with it Huh?

Please prepare your skills quickly! I will make a gap

I cant!

Mmm. The angle is subtle, so the appearance of the monster cannot be seen. Still, I could feel the magic power.

This, dont tell me

As I tried to figure out how much magic the monsters they were fighting had, I got a strange feeling.

This is why I didnt want to team up with an inexperienced young brat! If you block me straight, my arm, Chulmin Hyung! Damn it!

Hyung! Wait!

However, while focusing on detection for a while, the situation changed rapidly.

That bloodstain on the wall. Could it be that they are not stains of Earthlings?

First of all, those three seem to be one team.

At a glance, it seems that one person took the lead in tying the feet of the monster and used a strategy where the wizard in the rear intercepted them, but now the total number has been reduced to two.

Because just then, one of the wizards who swore had run away.

Grrrrrr.

T, the binding, not yet?

The skill I already used it. Yoonseung-ah.

And in the blink of an eye, the team was doomed.

It seems that while the hunters in the front row are attracting the attention of the monsters, a colleague has prepared a binding magic

When that didnt work at all, the last wizard noticed and did this.

I, I think itll work if I try again! Yoonseung-ah! Can you hold on with that skill for another 30 seconds?

heukh! Ugh. Yes.

The hunter holding the shield gritted his teeth and stepped forward in front of the monster even though he had already lost his focus.

But 30 seconds after the promise.

When he turned to the wizard. There was no one left behind.

.!

The last wizard threw that hunter as bait to attract the monsters attention, and ran away in the meantime.

He protected the attack with his body and risked his life, but he threw him away as a sacrifice and ran away. Is this human nature?

Haa

Realizing that he had been betrayed, Hunter collapsed on his knees as if he had no energy to get angry.

He could no longer stand because of the wounds.

I believed in everyone

That image of him waiting for death with his eyes closed was blurred with tears. Its pitiful.

But its okay. Yoonseung-ah!

Thanks to your time, I had a chance to analyze it.

Boom!

It was the moment when the monster took a heavy step to reap the life of the defeated Hunter.

The huge monster suddenly stopped moving when it detected a new movement behind it.

I walked out slowly and broke the long silence.

Wow, its clear to see it up close. Its nice to see you in a place like this!

Yeah, actually.

The identity of the monster they had been confronting all along was a golem.

And golems were very familiar to Alphauri. How familiar is it?

Oh, this is so ancient?

Lets just say that I feel like I met a robot vacuum cleaner in another galaxy.
