Chapter 17

Episode 16

The inner altar is a marble that grows in the body of an animal that has lived for a long time and has been promoted to a spiritual creature.

As much energy as it has been living for a long time is concentrated, if you consume it, you can get great strength.

The inner stage that Park Hyunsoo obtained was at least 500 years old.

The amount that can be converted into naengong is about 200 years.

If it was at this level, it could have killed you if you ate it in the usual way.

[Not available right now. I will go back and consume the inner altar under the control of the main seat.]

Park Hyunsoo only rolled his eyes to answer the question.

“We call it the Monster Heart.”

Lee Min-ah looked at her inside and said so.

Then she continued the explanation of the inner podium.

“Usually only boss-level monsters or monsters that are estimated to have lived for a long time are expelled, but they have a very strong power.”

“If you eat it, you will get strong power. If you are a low-ranking hunter, you can raise it by one level.”

When Park Hyunsoo was a supporter, he had never heard of Monster Heart.

It was information that they could know because they were at the top of the hunter society.

Ha Yu-rak looked at the inner altar in Park Hyunsoo’s hand and said.

“By the way, I didn’t know you could have such a large monster heart. I thought he was born to be huge, but it seems he has grown to that size after a long life.”

“It’s a loot, but can I just give it to you?”

“You can think of it as your own gift.”

And then, Yoo-Rak Ha winked.

Park Hyunsoo laughed awkwardly, and Lee Min-ah frowned.

“What kind of sympathy do you have when it’s not something they give you?”

“Do I have a stake in Monster Heart? We’re handing it all over to our Super Rookie.”

Then she trimmed Park Hyunsoo’s hair with her fingertips.

Lee Min-ah shook her head and placed the inner pedestal next to his head.

“It’s pretty big, so the effect is going to be huge. You don’t know how to take it, so please visit the association when you are well.”

“You can come as the Red Lion. I can help much better than the association.”

“huh. Who knows that the S-Class is all-rounder? You are ignorant of your strength.”

“Because of being ignorant and strong, in Korea, when everyone sees me, they put their eyes on me, don’t they? Except for a cute little girl.”

Lee Min-ah looked at her terribly.

Ha Yu-rak received her gaze with ease.

[The fighting is great. Chuckle!]

Chungyeong laughed out loud, wondering if it was fun to watch the two of them.

“Anyway, I’ll take it.”

At Park Hyunsoo’s words, Lee Min-ah turned her gaze away and emphasized again.

“You must go to the association or that woman’s guild to get help! It can be life-threatening if you try to take it alone.”

“Yes Yes. I’ll keep that in mind. Rather, the two of you have something to say.”

She knew what she was talking about, but she asked for yes.

Lee Min-ah looked at her Ha Yu-rak and asked.

“Who will do it first?”

“The main character usually comes later.”

“I thought so. I’ll do it first.”

Lee Min-ah drank her glass of water and cleared her throat.

She presented her prepared file to Park Hyunsoo.

“This is our contract. I’ve tried to adapt it to your opinion as much as possible.”

Lee Min-ah was convinced when she saw what had happened in Gangdong-gu.

Park Hyunsoo is the goose that lays the golden eggs that you should not miss.

He will surely become the next S-class hunter, and he will become a symbol of the association and become world-famous.

If he could not sign a contract even with this condition, Park Hyunsoo was just not willing to sign a contract with the association.

At least, Lee Min-ah thought so.

Park Hyunsoo opened her mouth with her frown as she was sticking out her contract with her confident face.

“… … I can’t get it.”

“Ouch.”It is absurd that Park Hyunsoo, who can’t even turn his head, reads the contract himself.

“I will read it to you.”

Lee Min-ah hurriedly opened the file and took out the contract.

And while she was trying to recite only the main condition, she found Ha Yu-rak staring blankly from the other side.

“Let him go.”

“Well?”

“Can’t we just say our terms in front of our competitors?”

That was correct.

When I try to say that Ha Yu-rak doesn’t matter.

“That would be great.”

“Sheesh.”

Ha Yoo-rak left the hospital room to celebrate.

Two men (three to be exact, Chungyeong) Lee Min-ah had a slightly tense face.

As much as he did first, he had to impact enough to make the Red Lion come to mind.

The secret weapon has been prepared.

What the Guild can’t give, only the Association can give.

How much did you persuade your superiors to win this?

Lee Min-ah started reciting her contract.

* * *

After hearing all the terms of the association, he called Ha Yu-rak.

As Lee Min-ah left, she was smiling with her triumphant smile.

He looked quite confident about what conditions he had offered.

Ha Yu-rak had a rough idea of ​​what the association had to offer to Park Hyunsoo.

As soon as she sat down, she asked Park Hyunsoo.

“Did you mention immunity?”

“!!”

[Only a quick-witted wife.]

“How did you know?”

Ha Yoo-rak was the face he did.

The guild cannot give, but the association can give.

In fact, it was almost impossible to say.

The Red Lion is different from the general guild, and in fact, it has been granted the same level of authority as the Association from the Portal Countermeasures Committee.

There was no way she couldn’t do what the association could do for her.

However, it was a different story when it came to immunity privileges.

As the association was playing the role of the government, there was nothing that Ha Yu-rak could do with all his efforts.

“It’s attractive. Indemnification Privileges. There is no punishment for killing people.”

There were actually a few hunters with immunity.

Considering that number, it was an authority that was rarely granted.

The association was thinking of signing Park Hyunsoo even while granting such authority.

However, there was one loophole in the plan.

“Isn’t it?”

“What?”

“It’s called immunity. In fact, when you become an S-class, everything becomes meaningless, right?”

[Right.]

“… … ?”

Park Hyunsoo became an incomprehensible face, and Chungyeong, on the contrary, nodded his head with an understanding face.

Ha Yoo-rak looked at him and spoke briefly.

“Who touches the S-Class Hunter?”

“Ah.”

It was then that I understood.

An S-class hunter could not be compared if it was not the same S-class hunter.

Even if it’s an army.

So, even if they were not granted immunity, it was as if they had immunity on their own.

No, it wasn’t just immunity, but the whole world was extraterritorial to the S-class hunter.

“The association overlooked that part. No, I didn’t overlook it. I guess I just didn’t think about it. They are not S-class hunters.”

Two years ago, the age of portals had begun, but at first glance, the world seemed to remain the same.

It was a stupid idea.

“Earth has already become a world governed by the logic of power. And you too will soon become an S-class hunter. So what you need right now is not immunity, but a fence and support for my country.”

Park Hyunsoo couldn’t deny her words.

In a world dominated by the logic of power, only the strong can provide a fence.

Ha Yu-rak’s words contained the truth of reality.

“I will be your shield until you become S-Class.”

Ha Yu-rak held out her hand.

“… … I can’t raise my arms.”

The contract was concluded.

* * *

After finishing her successful (?) contract, Ha Yu-rak said she would deal with it immediately, and she returned to the Red Lion Guild headquarters.

Next to Park Hyunsoo, Lee Min-ah was sitting with her sullen face.

“sorry.”

“No. She was just smarter.”

This competition was definitely a victory for Ha Yu-rak.

Whatever conditions she presented, the result would have been the same.

Park Hyunsoo was a man who was infinitely close to an S-class hunter no matter what anyone said.

So, there was little regret.

It was just embarrassing to be pushed by Ha Yoo-rak.

“excuse me.”

“Anything to say?”

“I’m really sorry in this situation, but can I ask you one favor?”

“Please?”

It’s funny that she asks for a favor because of the situation, but Lee Min-ah wasn’t the kind of woman who ended up doing things like this.

“Please find one person.”

“It is not difficult to find if you have personal information. You could have asked the guild, but why me?”

This wasn’t an afterthought, it was purely a question.

If you are a Red Lion, looking for someone is probably just lying down and eating rice cakes.

“It’s about finding survivors in Gangdong-gu.”

“Is that Gangdong?”

“Yes. I think it is more efficient to ask the association for this matter.”

“In such a case, the association is better than the guild.”

Gangdong-gu and neighboring autonomous districts suffered great damage due to the opening of the Iljasan portal.

In addition to the wounded, the death toll was uncountable.

The count has already surpassed 100,000.

“Do you know his name, gender, and age?”

“My name is Chayun. I am a girl and I am 18 years old.”

“If it is a dead person, it will take quite a while to find it. We’re doing rescues with the survivors first… … .”

“I lost consciousness, but I was definitely alive. Suddenly a monster snake appeared and I couldn’t take care of him because he was fighting.”

“If you’re alive, you’ll find it right away. It was reported that the Gangdong-gu side rescued most of the survivors because the rescue team was put in first.”

“thank you.”

“no. May I ask what else to do with that? Perhaps… … family?”

“It’s not family, but it’s like a little sister.”

“all right. Leave it to me.”

With those words, Lee Min-ah left the hospital room.

[You are a good woman. Even though it wasn’t a good situation to grant her a request, if you take her feet off and give it to me.]

“That’s it.”

Park Hyunsoo nodded and looked up at the ceiling.

Contrary to how well his contract worked out, his face darkened slightly.

[I thought he’d like it because things went well, but he has other concerns.]“Is that kid okay?”

[You mean a child named Chayun?]

“Yes. I don’t think he’s dead.”

[Okay. Because he was still breathing until you defeated the snake.]

“How do you know that?”

[huh. When you reach the level of the main seat, that level is not a task.]

“ha. thank God.”

Park Hyunsoo sighed in relief.

It was only because of Cha-yoon that he ran to Gangdong-gu.

If he had not been able to protect her, he would have been greatly disappointed.



“By the way, when can I be discharged from the hospital?”

[Since the power supply is damaged, recovery will not be easy. Fortunately, I got the inner altar, so if I take it, I will be able to recover quickly.]

“Is the inner podium so great?”

[As I have said before, inner dan has the effect of increasing the total amount of internal cavities of the user and increasing the physical ability depending on the type. No matter how much money you have, saving is like picking the stars in the sky, and for the uninhabited, getting even a small inner stage is a big feat.]

“How much is it?”

[10% if you’re too lazy to absorb it by yourself. I’ll probably get about 20 years of endurance.]

“Twenty years of service?! Only 1 percent? Wait, but you say you can only absorb 10%?”

[You don’t even know how to take Naedan. I’d just chew on it, but would it be absorbed properly? It’ll just be shit.]

“Even if you say… … .”

[However, it is a different story if the main course helps.]

Chungyeong was a thousand mai and the first person in the world.

As with all martial arts, he had no one to follow, especially in qigong technique.

[If this seat helps absorption, it is more than 70%. It is to gain at least 140 years of endurance.]

“Wow.”

[Thinking about it, my stomach hurts. Why are you the only one who eats these raw?]

“I’m not eating raw! I almost died.”

[It’s all self-inflicted.]

“Don’t speak. Please continue what you said earlier.”

The conversation was cut off when Ha Yu-rak and Lee Min-ah came in, but they were talking about an important secret of Prince Heavenly Demon.

Chungyeong clicked his tongue in disbelief.

[Ew, twitttttt. In the end, we have to talk like this.]

“Don’t drag it for nothing.”

[I’m not talking formally. Just open your ears and listen.]

Chungyeong continued to cough for nothing.

[He who succeeds the Heavenly Demon’s skill must prepare to face a huge enemy that will one day appear.][This is the only reason why Heavenly Demon, the first educator, made Heavenly Demon’s memories continue.][He also doesn’t know what a huge enemy is. Neither the master of the main throne nor the ancestors knew it.][It is simply passed down from generation to generation and inherited.][Actually, I don’t know what the enemy was, so I don’t even know if it really exists.][However, if in doubt, follow it.][That is the significance of the existence of Heavenly Demon, and the reason why Heavenly Demons exist.][By the way, you didn’t become a member of the Heavenly Magician by your own abilities, so I was hesitant as to whether I should speak or not. In the end, I remember part of the memories of martial arts, so I said it because I thought it was meaningless.]

Hearing all the secrets related to the Heavenly Demon, Park Hyunsoo had no choice but to leave his face blank.

To sum up, it was said that the Heavenly Demon Church’s investigation into the break-up of the Church made a series of martial arts in case of an enemy that would appear someday.

That reason cannot be included in the Heavenly Demon ball, so the method of passing it on to the next Heavenly Demon was adopted.

“I am stunned.”

[This was also the case in the beginning.]

“By the way, the enemy is that.”

[Tell me.]

“… … Doesn’t that apply in this world?”



[…] … .]

“… … .”

One more reason for Chungyeong to return.
