Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God

Chapter 145

Hunter Association branch in China. Golden Pavilion. There, a woman wearing a black hat draped with a silk veil was sitting on an antique wooden chair, smoking a long pipe.

“Whoa-.”

She blew out white smoke and asked Ryujin on the other side in silence.

“…okay. Is there anything you want to say to me?”

The woman’s voice had the power to heighten tension just by hearing it. A power that makes even wild beasts shrink. It was the intimidation of the strong.

“But at such a busy time… to come all the way to Geumjeonggak.”

Tuk-tuk- She brushed off the ashes from her pipe, revealing her white arm hidden in her sleeve. Beautiful lines to look at. However, there was an incongruously small scar engraved on the white arm. Those were the traces she had left in her battles.

“Is it worth talking about?”

When the woman asked leisurely with her legs crossed. Ryujin frowned and frowned.

Ryujin didn’t like the calm attitude of the teacher who already knew everything but asked casually.

“…Yesterday Liu Ming went into surgery.”

Liu Jin’s younger brother, Liu Ming, suffered from a rare mana disease. In order to maintain life, it was necessary to have surgery to change the nature of mana at regular intervals.

A life that is literally life-limited.

“Your sister’s story? So this is the 4th time?”

The woman put the cigarette in her mouth again, unmoved by Liu Ming’s tragedy.

“So what do you want to say to me?”

For Ryu Jin, this kind of reaction from his teacher was nothing new. The reason he taught Ryujin was to teach his own swordsmanship and pass it on to the next generation.

She gathered gifted children from all over China and chose Liu Jin after a fierce selection process.

In that relationship, there was no warm story like the sympathy between the priests.

The reason why Ryujin chose a teacher called Swordsin. The reason why Sword God chose a disciple named Ryujin. Both of them had their own interests.

“I am.”

Ryujin paused for a moment.

Even your own feelings.

It was silent and cold.

“…Have you forgotten why I became your disciple?”

Chinese swordsman.

Among the many hunters who wanted her teachings, Ryujin’s wish was unique.

[…If you become a strong Hunter. really my brother. Can you make it better?]

Even at the age of 14, he is a confident boy.

At Ryujin’s question, Sword God smiled and nodded.

[okay. There are all kinds of miracles in the tower. It’s like saving a dying child. It shouldn’t be that difficult. …but.]

After he stopped talking, the swordsman looked up and down at Ryujin, who was scarred by sparring. She was now weighing Ryujin’s qualifications.

[The Miracle of the Tower is a beautifully burning light. All who are caught in the heat of the light are reduced to ashes. Among them, it is the very few hunters who are chosen who can achieve miracles. I don’t know if you can have that kind of strength.]

[It doesn’t matter. Even if it turns to ashes, I’ll get it.]

She slowly put the pipe in her mouth and inhaled. And then the smoke slowly spewing out white.

“I might have forgotten. Whoa-.”

Swordsman put down the pipe and spoke to Ryujin.

“I’ll do what I can to keep you from dying. …If you use more circular stones, it won’t be difficult.”

The circular stone was only a makeshift solution and not a fundamental solution to cure Liu Ming’s illness.

“Instead, your debt will increase. Although it’s my request… It’s the association’s money that’s keeping your brother alive. Thank you very much. isn’t it Are you a disciple?”

However, the circular stone is the only spark to save his younger brother. Ryujin had to hold on to that temporary measure. In order for Liu Ming not to cool down, he had to light the fire even if he was reduced to ashes.

“…thank you.”

How much do you owe to the association so far? Ringstone is a rare mineral. Because the number was small compared to the number of people who wanted it, several buildings could be bought with a small stone.

A price that is more expensive than most artifacts. Ryujin used more than a dozen such circular stones for seven years for his younger brother.

He was able to cover that amount thanks to the help of the association that invested in him.

It would have been an impossible support if not for Geomsin, the head of the Hunter Association in China.

Ryujin nodded lightly and turned around.

But then, the voice of the Sword God called Ryujin and stopped him.

“…do you want to climb the tower?”

tower.

An unidentified structure where an unknown miracle sleeps. Ryujin has become stronger in order to obtain an artifact that can cure Ryuming. So it was only natural that he wanted to climb the tower.

Jin Ryu turned his head and faced his teacher again.

Looking at Ryujin’s eyes filled with enthusiasm even without saying a word, the swordsman twisted his hat at an angle. The pink lips that could be seen through the gap in the veil were smiling.

“…okay? That’s fine.”

Swoop-

Swordsman took out a piece of paper and put it on the desk.

“This is the position of the tower. It has my seal on it. Go to the tower sometime and test your limits.”

The tower where the unknown is hidden.

The place Ryujin wanted to enter more than anywhere else. The ticket to that place was now in Ryujin’s hand.

Only then did the swordsman loosen his crossed legs and stand up.

“Because I’ve made it so convenient. You will have to prove your worth clearly enough to convince everyone.”

Sword God was paying attention to the upcoming battle between Yuseong Shin and Lorelai. At best, the name at stake was too interesting to dismiss it as a confrontation between students.

Fellow Yuwon and witch Aris, who were his colleagues. I am the son of both of them.

“I told you beforehand. The goal is to win. It has no meaning other than that. Don’t think of tarnishing my name.”

After those words, when the swordsman left Geumjeonggak, Ryujin squeezed the hand holding the admission document.

top of the tower.

For Ryu Jin, who was aiming for an unknown territory that no one had reached before, even one student could not be a target. Liu Ming’s wish to make many friends who want to go outside the hospital and see the wide world has yet to come true.

So in order to make Liu Ming’s wish come true, Liu Jin couldn’t stop.

‘It doesn’t matter who comes up.’

Yoosung Shin. Adela. Lorelai.

No matter who the opponent was, the current Ryujin did not mind losing.

* * *

The training room of the clock tower was a safe place prepared so that it would not be destroyed by any attack during sparring.

Lorelai and Angela blacked out the place and experimented with a lighting gun mounted on the ceiling.

An experiment to see if Angela can dodge electric attacks fired from the ceiling. It was an experiment that seemed impossible given the speed of electricity, but Angela quickly figured out the pattern of the Lightning Gun and avoided all attacks.

Truly unbelievable chess.

“It is you too.”

Lorelai looked down at Angela, who was on one knee, with impassive eyes.

“…Now that I have kept the necromancer in check with the holy sphere. Only one opponent left. Angela. I have high expectations of you.”

Lorelai took out the prepared artifact from her pocket and handed it to Angela.

What Angela was handed over was an unidentified garment.

“Lorelai-sama…”

“If you are equipped with artifacts, you can easily defeat Kim Eun-ah.”

“Hehe, if it is him, please leave it to me. I am really… really confident.”

When Lorelai’s mouth came out, Kim Eun-ah’s name came out. Angela put on an amused expression. A beauty that captivates those around you at a glance. White skin that stimulates protective instincts. From her well-maintained beautiful legs to her high-handed and harsh personality.

Although it was a brief encounter, Kim Eun-ah seemed to have gathered Angela’s taste.

But that wasn’t the end of Angela’s crush on Kim Eun-ah.

‘…and I can tell. The appearance of that child who pretends to be strong is fake.’

Angela could feel the inside of Kim Eun-ah’s eyes.

It was clear that Kim Eun-ah was the type who pretended to be strong, not strong. He puts up a hard mask like an armor, but what is hidden under it is a weak personality.

‘…I miss you. The real face the child is hiding.’

Angela was intent on harassing Kim Eun-ah in this match. It wasn’t difficult since I even got electricity resistance through the prepared artifact. It was a landslide victory for her, who focused on taijutsu, if it was to seal her attributes.

‘So that you can’t shout surrender. Cover your mouth first… Slowly… very slowly harass me.’

Angela imagined Kim Eun-ah, who was so confident, her face distorted into a painful expression, and eventually wept and begged Angela to forgive her. Angela’s body is already heating up.

‘…Of course, I won’t forgive you even if I cry.’

Gulp-

Angela swallowed dryly.

‘I wish I could stay by my side all the time… but I only get one chance.’

Angela wanted to engrave an unforgettable memory for Kim Eun-ah. I wanted to make you shudder whenever you think of the battle with yourself.

The feeling of leaving footprints in the pure white snow. It didn’t matter if that feeling was fear or humiliation.

Angela got up and looked at Lorelai.

“Then… as Lorelai-sama ordered. I will take care of him.”

Angela smiles excitedly in anticipation of the battle with Kim Eun-ah. Lorelai nodded indifferently.

“i look forward to. Angela.”

“yes. Lorelai.”

Contrary to her sinister inner thoughts, Angela looked at Lorelai and smiled with a nice smile.
