The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood

Chapter 59:

Thump, thump, thump.

I calmly observed the approaching golem. Was it because I trusted that Yoonseung would handle it? Not really. 

Yeah~ Lets try it~ Im going to use twin guardian angels right away.

Since I had protective gear, I could have lasted the 10 seconds alone anyway. Safety was assured, thats for sure.

Hwaaak! Hyung-nim! 

Fortunately, it seems like there wont be a need to use magic tools after all. Soon, Yoonseung, who moved like lightning, activated his awakening ability.

[Shield of Protection]

Kaang!

The golems attack was blocked by a translucent blue barrier. Ahn Yoonseung was so shocked that his hands were shaking, but I continued with my task nonchalantly. 

3 seconds, 2 seconds 

Click, click, click.

If I give a light signal according to the golems emergency stop code like this. 

-Kiiiing

The large golem is ultimately unable to overcome the algorithm and falls to its knees. 

Boom. Soon, a huge roar followed, and silence fell over the area.

The Golem? 

Its a kind of weakness. Ill explain gradually. Dont follow along recklessly until you fully understand.

O, of course! I cant do it like you, Hyung-nim! 

No, you can do it, right?

Now, Yoonseung-ah.

Around the time when the A-Class was blank when his name was called, I gently pointed to the golem on the floor. Now, there was only one thing left to do.

Hit it powerfully!

Ahn Yoonseungs eyes were more shaken when the golem woke up. 

***

Boom!

Once again, the golem falls. Dealing with a golem that had stopped functioning was easier than anything else. 

Boom, boom!

Ahn Yoonseung swung his mace towards the sleeping monster. Then, the sturdy outer shell boasted by the golem shattered into pieces.

Its simple, right?

Golem hunting is considered particularly difficult among monsters of the same class due to its high physical attack resistance but he cant believe it fell to such a simple task!

Huh! 

Ahn Yoonseung could hardly keep his mouth shut. Just moments ago, he was sweating profusely with fear at the sight of the golem.

No way. 

In just 10 seconds, Kiryeo neutralized the golem in that short period of time. The sight of that huge monster losing control and collapsing at the mere gesture of another was truly shocking

Turn over the golem for a moment. Lets take out the core. 

But Kim Kiryeo just makes a bored face, as if this is nothing. 

How can this be?

The act of finding a deep-hidden core at once is reminiscent of that of an expert. Its truly a flawless move. With such skill, how many golem-type monsters has he killed so far? 

Ahn Yoonseung. 

Its overwhelming.

Ahn Yoonseung roughly assessed his opponents skills and stood firm in his spot, but then the call came again.

Ahn Yoonseung? 

Ah, yes! 

Kim Kiryeo, who was squatting on top of the golem, made a subtle gesture, indicating that Ahn Yoonseung should come closer. 

W, whats the matter? 

Ill teach you how to take out the core.

Ahn Yoonseung couldnt help but admire the following explanation. Kim Kiryeo not only knew how to defeat the golem but also had a thorough understanding of its structure.

Watch closely. Just stick your finger into this gap and pry it open. Press firmly inside once, then lift it outward.

Ah!

Good job. 

Its really easy!

Usually, the connection between the opening and closing sections where the core is inserted is weak. Well, there are some that arent. 

This wasnt simply a matter of having plenty of hunting experience. To fully understand a species of monster, it required numerous experiments and observations to follow.

When other hunters encounter a golem, they are in a hurry to destroy it and defeat it in any way possible. But did Hyung-nim even have the time to calmly disassemble the monster?

Suddenly, Ahn Yoonseungs eyes sparkled.

There was no longer any fear in those eyes. With a hunter handling the golem like a toy right next to him, how could such a mere lump of scrap metal continue to be frightening?

As expected, Hyung-nim is amazing!

Ahn Yoonseung sincerely looked up to that F-Class hunter. Now that he thinks about it, he even admires the idea of using a laser point. 

I was impressed! 

Hmm? 

With Hyung-nim skills, you would be able to kill the golem without this trick, but did you come up with a new strategy to avoid relying on awakening skills? 

Kim Kiryeo was a hunter with a rare and firm belief.

Even in everyday life and inside the gates, he doesnt rely on awakening skills unless its absolutely necessary. Maybe thats why hes so strong. 

We are of a different class from hunters who abandon training and only focus on the abilities given to them by heaven.

Ahn Yoonseung nodded his head, understanding alone. 

Does he know?

He realized that he was making a big mistake.

Ahn Yoonseung is saying something strange again.

In fact, with F-Class magic power, he can only use that simple light magic once. So, Kiryeo had no choice but to bring the laser pointer, but

Um, yeah. Youre right.

There was no need to explain this.

Because it was troublesome.

***

The subsequent hunt went smoothly. We activated the emergency stop with the laser pointer and removed the core from the golem, which had become an empty can.

This is an infinite repetition, so whats difficult?

Even picking up grain kernels would be more difficult than this.

Kiryeos operation was a great success. Ahn Yoonseung was able to easily shake off the golem trauma from the repeated one-sided hunting. Now, even though he sees the rampaging golem right in front of me, he only feels nervous.

Its just as Kiryeo Hyung said. If you look at these things, their behavior patterns are incredibly simple. 

See? I said theres no need for you to be scared. 

Boom!

At the time when the 28th golem triggered the emergency stop, Kiryeo collected the core and calmly gave advice.

However, underestimating it is a separate issue. Because theres only one model that I taught you how to deal with.

Are you talking about the golem guard? 

Dont let your guard down in front of monsters. If you encounter a golem for the first time, pay attention to it. 

Kim Kiryeo rose from his spot with satisfaction. The item box was full, and the training was perfect. There is only one thing left to worry about 

That guy, Ahn Yoonseung. He had completely forgotten that he was committing an illegal act.

This F-Class hunter had illegally entered the upper-level gate without even reporting as a transporter. It was a clear violation. But isnt crime something he can get away with as long as he doesnt get caught?  

Hohoho. Theres no way Ill get caught.

Kim Kiryeo smiles in satisfaction. This time, he had some confidence. 

Since the appearance of the previous EX-Class White Maze, the frequency of gate occurrences and their difficulty have greatly increased in Korea. 

Those people are having a hard time too.

To put it simply, the Hunter Association is currently struggling with a manpower shortage.

According to principle, a surveillance station should be posted at the entrance to every gate, but this is to the point where there have been rare management loopholes in the past. The entry verification staff is useless. 

Right now, the gates that couldnt even afford surveillance cameras were abundant due to being unable to handle the overwhelming traffic. 

Thanks to that, only individuals like me who enter illegally reap any benefits.

Since Seonwoo Yeon seems busy with various things these days, he doesnt think hell suddenly pop out like last time.

Is it the boss? 

Has it already come to that?

It seems like weve captured almost all of the regular monsters, but

Kim Kiryeo rolled the item box in his hand. In his head, he was thinking about how to take advantage of Ahn Yoonseung so that he could eat a lot of the bosss share.

That might be why.

Hmm? 

Maybe it was because he had such bad thoughts that he was punished like this

F*ck, what is this! 

Kiryeo suddenly burst out with swear words. Ahn Yoonseung flinched his shoulder without knowing why, and at the same time, the surrounding air sank at once. What followed was a sharp and cold sensation grazing his skin. There was nothing more to say. 

Kaak! Boom!

The coldness emanating from across the corridor instantly engulfed Kiryeo. Sensing the opponents magic a step ahead, Kiryeo hastily retreated, but he couldnt prevent his own feet from freezing.

Hyung-nim! 

Crack.

Both feet were firmly stuck to the ice on the floor. Kiryeo quickly scanned the area ahead.

What in the world!

But then, when he saw the direction from which the magic flew, it was even more unbelievable.

What happened?

Oh my. 

All the golems are dead 

Do the perpetrators who attacked him abruptly look bewildered?  

Eventually, three mysterious awakeners appeared on the left side. They were murmuring among themselves and making a commotion. Kiryeo could not bear it anymore and shouted loudly. 

What are you b*stards doing!

He couldnt help but be curious about this issue.

***

This is why it seems like listening is always important.

Boss steals are on the rise again these days.

The word that came up in the conversation with Seonwoo Yeon.

Steal act. 

That crime has been a problem in hunter society ever since the Gate was created. Expensive items, popular gates, rare monsters The struggle to obtain valuable things has never ceased throughout history.

Expensive items, popular gates, rare monsters The struggle to obtain valuable things has never ceased throughout history.

Outside of the gate [Golden Fragrance].

The three awakened people gathered together adjusted their weapons with the intention of taking over the dungeon boss. 

But the truth is 

They didnt originally intend to commit theft either.

Its just that they realized the appearance of [Golden Fragrance] later than Kim Kiryeo, which became the problem. 

The preparations were all set, but in the meantime, another hunter entered.

I know, right. 

Golems are usually difficult to deal with, so there usually isnt a team readily available to hunt them down like this.

A normal person would give up on an owner-occupied gate, but there is a reason why they cant back out.

As expected, theres no choice but to steal it in the middle.

Thats right. 

Can you be unfaithful to father? 

Lets make sure to collect the boss items of this dungeon.

Do they think believers immersed in pseudo-religions will avoid committing crimes? Their minds are already filled with the commands of their cult leaders.

Its rather good. We were a bit worried about our power alone, but if those who went ahead could reduce the number of monsters 

Defeat the boss of the gate where the golem appears. And bring back the [Infinite Energy Core]  rewards. They were determined to commit conventional steal crimes in order to fulfill this task.

First, wait until the hunters who entered regularly have conquered the gate to some extent.

Second, then they secretly follow afterwards.

Lastly, they ambush the tired hunters as they are about to enter the boss room, intercepting the gate.

What a despicable tactic this is.

Everyone, stay alert. We have a big responsibility on our shoulders right now.

However, those who had been brainwashed by the pseudo-religious group called Rakshasa Temple were no longer able to make moral judgments. Naturally, the lives of others were of no concern to them whatsoever.

Lets see. Please wait a moment. The revelation has just come.

The leader, a cult member, opened his cell phone and checked something on his phone. What he was looking at was none other than information about the attackers of the Golden Fragrance Gate. 

[(Admission Status)]

[Attackers : 1 person 2 people 3 people ]

[Transporter Status : YES NO ]

[Attacker : Ahn Yoonseung (Grade : A)]

With the Rakshasa Temples financial resources, it wasnt difficult to buy off one or two Hunter Association employees. 

Uhm. 

Solo playing in a dungeon with golems?

Its an unexpected composition, but its not bad. The smaller the team size, the less resistance there is when taking over the boss.

We leave in about an hour.

They killed time until the hunter who entered earlier cleared the way.

And after a while.

After a long wait, they finally headed to the dungeon

Huh? 

Within just a few minutes, they knew something was wrong.

This is strange? 

They walked and walked, with only broken golem remains greeting them, and there was absolutely no sign of any person!

How could there be this many golems in just one hour? And moreover, alone?

Sensing something amiss, the cult members started to run hastily. 

Hunter Ahn Yoonseung. 

Theyre not sure what method he used, but it was clear that he was attacking the dungeon at an abnormal speed.

Oh my!

Just as they feared, by the time they caught up with Ahn Yoonseung, the boss room of the dungeon was already right in front of them.

60 minutes. Normally, it would only be halfway to the gate at this point.

Hes not alone, right?

Moreover, contrary to the stolen information, there was a stranger standing next to Ahn Yoonseung.

A blonde man wearing black clothes. Although his identity was unknown, his unfamiliar face suggested that he wasnt particularly famous or noteworthy. 

Dont let anyone approach the boss room!

From then on, it unfolded as it already had.

It was the beginning of the attack.

The terrorist, awakened with the cold attribute, immediately launched an attack after spotting them. The target was Ahn Yoonseungs companion. Originally, the plan was to restrain the weaker side with ice and then seize the opportunity to attack while the opponent was distracted.

Huh? 

Ahn Yoonseungs attitude was strange

He showed no signs of concern for his teammate even though they were suddenly attacked.

Whats this, frogs? Oh dear, how foolish! Of all things to meddle with, they had to go after Hyung-nim!

What is this leisure?

The believers in the Rakshasa Temple are already fully prepared to hunt people. However, Ahn Yoonseungs reaction brought about a strange sense of anxiety.
