Chapter 225
Kwajik!
White teeth erupted into the air with an eerie sound.
It was so thoroughly maintained that it shimmered in the dark. Now it’s all gone to nothing.
“Fhaaaaagh!”
coup
Won Myung-hun, who flew several meters and hit his back against a tree, coughed.
The teeth remaining in his mouth mixed with blood and fell. Suddenly, the man’s face was contorted in shock.
“Hey, how is this… … “
It really happened in an instant.
Not only Won Myung-hoon, but all the Star Guild members looked at me with expressions of disbelief.
“How, what, how? It’s because I’m stronger.”
“I-I can’t do this.”
Yes there is
As he took a step forward with a refreshing answer, Won Myung-hun’s body trembled.
“Do not come!”
“Did I come? You guys were waiting.”
It was already too late to turn back. I thought I’d tell you clearly the cost of gritting my teeth.
Won Myeong-hun shouted like a fit, probably feeling something unusual.
“What are you doing, you bastards!”
“Hey, guild leader.”
“Only two guys! If you leave here, you will all die!”
The hesitant Star Guild members raised their arms at his words. Won Myung-hun gritted his few teeth.
“I am dealing with this guy. Catch the old man first!”
At that, I stopped walking.
“What now?”
“Why did you hit the nail on the head?”
Won Myung-hoon snorted and glared at me with glowing eyes.
“Jin Tae-kyung, you bastard. I don’t know what the hell they did, but that’s it.”
“A modification?”
“Don’t pretend you don’t know. I wonder where did you find and wear high-performance accelerator equipment… …
“Oh, was that what you were talking about?”
I opened my eyes wide in amazement.
Won Myung-hun’s imagination to somehow rationalize the reason he lost is astonishing.
“That’s a pretty novel idea.
But isn’t the hostage situation too clichéd compared to that?”
“It’s a cliché, but it’s always important that it works.”
“well… … “
I blurted out my horse’s tail.
While exchanging a few words with Won Myung-hoon, the members of the star guild, with their tankers at the forefront, were charging at Deacon Kim.
“A little this time. I guess the cases are different.”
“what?”
At the moment Won Myung-hun asked, Deacon Kim, who was tapping his waist, stamped his long stick into the ground.
light action. However, the power flowing from the tip of the staff shook the ground.
The heavy voice that followed was like the last switch of a bomb.
“Overturn it. Earthquake.”
Goo Goo!
The primeval forest, which preserves nature, trembled greatly.
As the hard ground cracked, soil and rocks sprang up, revealing the trunks of deeply rooted trees. A group of unnamed flying beasts flew up.
– Beep!
It was up to that point that the earthquake could be avoided.
Unfortunately, the Star Guild members did not have wings, and the cracked and smashed ground became triangular waves and swallowed them up.
“Avoid all… … Big!”
“Aaaaaagh!”
Quaaaaaa!
In the place where the waves swept through, only moans and screams flowed sparsely.
The Star Guild members were crushed by the enormous weight of the earth and sand, barely exhaling with only their necks exposed.
The one who made more than a dozen B-class veteran hunters incapable of combat with a single spell was unconcerned.
“Younger friends have no manners towards their seniors. Everyone relax and close your eyes.
If you don’t want to die buried like this.”
It’s a cool voice I’ve never heard before.
The Star Guild members, who finally realized Deacon Kim’s real skills, lowered their heads with tired faces.
Oh, except for one person.
“Class A wizard…!”
A-rank hunters are rare, but among them, magic and healers are even rarer. You probably didn’t expect Deacon Kim, who always puts his hands behind his back and laughs, to be an A-class wizard.
I smiled at Won Myung-hoon, who was trembling.
“The hostage takedown has failed. What now?”
“That’s why I told you. Don’t stick your teeth into it.”

Won Myung-hun, who had been standing in a daze like a distraught man, managed to open his mouth.
“You, what are you?”
“You know, Peace Guild. I want to value the name of the guild, but it’s a problem because people around me don’t cooperate.”
Won Myung-hoon bit his lip.
I couldn’t have dared to imagine that a moment’s wrong choice would bring about the same result.
But it was already too late to turn back. She has only two options left for the cornered hyena.
‘Either run away. Either give in.’
Won Myung-hun chose the latter.
Turton!
The spear slipped from his grip and rolled on the ground.
“… … I will surrender.”
“surrender?”
I approached Won Myung-hun. He lowered his head as if resigned as he kicked the spear away from the ground.
“So suddenly?”
There is no movement even though it is right in front of you. Sfl asked him who did not answer with his head lowered.
“If you get out, you get at least life imprisonment. You wouldn’t know what a serious crime an act like this is at the gate, right?”
Won Myung-hoon, who hesitated, opened his mouth.
“Because it’s better than dying.”
“It’s better than dying… … Yes, that is correct.”
If you survive, you have a chance. But death means complete closure.
What lies beyond will be known later.
Those who have much to lose fear death. This was the case with Won Myung-hun now.
“Raise your head.”
“… … I get it.”
I looked into his eyes. An unknown light was swirling in the pair of dark eyes like the abyss.
Fear of the future unfolding. Anxiety about death.
and… … .
dump
“Tae Kyung. please.”
“Give me one last chance, one last chance. Killing a guy like me will only leave you feeling embarrassed.”
“It’s embarrassing, but I won’t be punished. Municipal self-defence is recognized when you are threatened with death at the gate. You know that.”
“That, though.”
Won Myung-hun swallowed his saliva.
“If you kill me, it’s murder. It doesn’t change the fact that you become a murderer.”
Murderer. The word that rolls off the tip of my tongue is suffocating.
I opened my mouth while looking at Won Myung-hun, who was kneeling down and begging for his life in a servile voice.
“I believe you.”
“Taekyung!”
“I beg you, please do not betray my trust.”
It was the moment when I threw a rope with the word to tie it up and turned around.
“Hahaha! You stupid bastard!”
At the same time as the shouts of joy, the feeling of living behind my back.
When I turned my head, I saw Won Myung-hoon, who had come right in front of me. In his hand was a dagger imbued with an aura.
“Get lost!”
Shhh! Chaya State
Myung-Hun Won’s face, which was brightly lit with the joy of blood fountains welling up with a short break, was puzzled.
“… … uh?”
Tuduk
One beat later, something falls to the ground.
It was Won Myung-hun’s wrist that was tightly gripping the neatly cut cross-section, the dagger with no aura.
“Should have been twice as fast as that.”
He wiped the blood from the dagger in his hand. In the blink of an eye, I took out a weapon from my inventory and the game was decided in an instant.
A short, but agonizing silence.
Soon, Won Myung-hun’s mouth slowly opened and a terrible scream erupted.
“Quaaaaaagh!”
Looking at the guy struggling in pain, my heart was as calm and peaceful as a lake.
I didn’t feel betrayed or regret that I trusted someone I shouldn’t have trusted.
because… … .
“Thank you. For moving as I believed.”
Because I didn’t believe in Won Myung-hun from the beginning.
From the moment I received the Yeti necklace, from the moment he ignored my warnings and bared his teeth again.
“You were just that human.”
“Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
“If you let me live, I’ll always bite my teeth again. Like a thorn in my throat, if I survive, I will come back somehow.”
Squeak, Squeak!
The dagger cut the tendon in the calf.
Blood splatters and knees break. It was at that time that I put a black-edged dagger on the guy’s neck.
“Hunter Jin Tae-kyung!”
Tens of meters away, Deacon Kim was watching with dissuading eyes.
“You don’t have to go that far.”
“That’s right, that’s why I let it go.”
“But killing monsters is different from murder. Rather me.”
I replied in a calm voice.
“I know.”
“… … yes?”
“I already know that.”
How many people have you killed so far? dozens? Or one hundred?
The world I lived in was not easy. Monsters had to be killed at the gate, and people had to be killed at Moorim.
I am not a lofty adult soldier.
He is a hunter and warrior who has a family and people to protect. In order to survive, in order to become strong, he was willing to shed blood.
For me, there is no big difference between the monster and Won Myung-hun in front of me.
‘Because it’s an enemy.’
No matter who the opponent is, if it is an enemy that will cause harm to me and my people someday, it is right to get rid of the root of the problem.
“So don’t stop.”
Deacon Kim is also a man who has gone through many battlefields.
You would have noticed in just a brief conversation. Who am I and what have I decided to do?
He looked at me with sunken eyes and nodded slightly.
“Turn it off. buy, save… … “
“Ask for help?”
I looked down at the groaning Won Myung-hun. The idol I looked up to as a child. He was the one who shined exceptionally among the many stars.
But the old memories of him will now be buried deep in a time capsule.
I whispered in a low voice.
“If you were going to kill someone, you should have been prepared to die.”
“Tae, Tae Kyung. please… … “
Awesome!
The dagger cut deep into the uvula. Won Myung-hoon’s eyes widened as he looked up at me with desperate eyes.
I tried to block the uvula with my one remaining wrist, but I couldn’t stop the blood and life from pouring out.
Krrrr. thud.
The moment his body collapsed with the sound of boiling blood.
belt ring.
– [Lv80. Myunghun Won] has been defeated!
– A significant amount of experience gained!
The system announced the death of an enemy.
“Let’s go.”
Deacon Kim, who was staring at me with a strange gaze, nodded.
“You have more luggage to bring.”
As he waved his staff, the buried Star Guild members floated to the surface.
I suddenly opened my mouth as I watched the rope summoned by magic tying them up like gulbi.
“Wait a minute, Mr. Kim.”
“……?”
“I need to add one more person.”
After a while, I followed the direction the kigam indicated and found a man with a gag in his mouth.
For some reason, he was tied to a tree, a face I knew.
“Star Guild Team Leader 1?”
Most of the reporters who came for the cooperative raid between the Peace Guild and the Star Guild, no, Jin Tae-kyung and Won Myung-hun’s raid, had long since left their seats.
However, there are exceptions. A young man eating ramen wearing thick horn-rimmed glasses was one of them.
“I’m sad because I’m the youngest, I’m sad.”
A fellow reporter who was eating instant kimchi in the youth’s lamentation giggled.
“There’s nothing I can’t say about the second month topic.”
“It’s been a while since I’ve had a senior like that.”
“Honey. But when I was there, I just kept my mouth shut.
“Isn’t this too much? How many days do you have to wait to cover a hunter?”
“This kid hasn’t changed since he was in college. If you twist it, do you eat it?”
The young man looked at the oily cup noodles with a melancholy face.
“It’s an A-level gate, so it will take at least three days… …
“three days? It’s good if you don’t fill the week full.”
“A week?”
“It’s an A-level gate. You can also pull out mulberry after going in once.”
“… … Uh.”
The young man trembled as if the thought gave him goosebumps.
It made her sadder when she saw that there were groups of youngest children in the same situation as her, eating their meals.
“I hope it comes out soon.”
“At least not today. As you said, if you come out quickly, it will take three halls, so take a deep breath. Would you like to go to the sauna together? I also play billiards.”
“Billiard?”
“Oh, there are plenty of things to play around here. It’s because the contractors are overpriced.”
“Then a game of billiards… … “
It was the moment when the young reporter, who was tempted by the senior’s temptation, just got off his butt and woke up.
The huge gate, the gate that stood tall in front of them, emitted a strange sound.
As the calm magic power started to swirl like the water surface of a lake, urgent cries came out from all over the place.
“gate! The gate opens!”
“already? what’s this!”
“camera! Come out quickly!”
The hall suddenly fell into chaos. The reporters, who had been spending time idle, jumped up and filled in front of the gate.
Young reporters and seniors were no exception. Those who occupied the front seats faster than anyone else were distracted.
“What, why are you coming out already?”
“Aren’t they me? Set up the machine quickly!”
A spinning camera, a non-stop flash.
The reporters, who intuitively sensed that something had happened, were right.
Whoa!
Dozens of people jumped out of the magical vortex.
The mouths of the people who saw them fell open.
“… … uh, what happened?”
