You Didn't Tell Me the Start of My Transmigration Was a Gate

Chapter 15 Part 1: White-tailed blade rodent

-Kekekkekekekekekeke

The sound of mocking laughter reverberated all over the place. Anyone who hears it, would go dizzy like they were hallucinating.

-Humans!

-It’s a human!

-Is there really one?

-There is!

It can speak?

Monsters that can communicate with each other are often at least D-Class.

Cerberus, who belonged to the high-intelligence side of D-class monsters, can’t speak the language as perfectly as this. This could only mean that, the situation is not very good…

“Damn it…It’s a «White-tailed blade rodent»!”

Jo Yeon-ho murmured softly. They were known as little demons. Like the little fairies in mythology. They’re both small and cunning, and has a very nasty temper.

Basically, they are monsters that belong to the demon beasts faction. They are very tough opponents due to the fact that anyone who got wounded by them will have to suffer serious infections.

-We are a gift!

-A gift from the Master!

-You want to meet Him? Invitation?

“What do you mean by that?”

Hyewon-Unnie put on a puzzled expression. She couldn’t understand what those rodents were talking about. I think I’m the only one here, who knew exactly what they meant.

They said ‘Master’? There’s only one, and that’s the owner of this gate…

That Stinky guy Beelzebub! Did he send them to me? He even called it ‘A Gift’? He’s crazy!

If he sent them to a different person they would have died right away. Imagine if I wasn’t with these hunters but was still inside that Indoor Gym? And then that Asshole Beelzebub sent something like that as a gift… It would have been an interesting sight. I would have fought with my all, just to save everyone. I could have died as well.

I’m glad I left alone.

There’s only one thing that I’m certain about. That bastard Beelzebub still had his eyes on me. He probably intended to mess with me just like how he messed with my master before my regression. Sending a monster whose difficulty level soared to the limit was a method he would often use.

I guess I also have to leave them.

Hyewon-Unnie will only be exposed to danger if she’s with me.

“You talk a lot.”

Pyo Hye-Won exclaimed condescendingly.

“Come on. You Bastards!”

As soon as Hyewon-Unnie finished speaking, the entire forest was filled with silence. I couldn’t even hear the cries of grasshoppers. The loudest I could hear is my rapid breathing.

These rodents are intelligent monsters. Although their fighting ability are not that great, they still pose a huge threat as they usually come in groups of at least tens to hundreds. Their attacks are all very methodical and vicious, that’s because they only follow instructions from their leader.

Even though they’re weak, if you get accidentally bitten by them. You might risk the chance of getting poisoned or infected which would cause one to suffer from terrible headaches.

Hyewon-Unnie jumped lightly in front. However, no landing sound was heard.

She skillfully floats in the air, her movements light and agile. It’s her unique skill.

«Levitation». It’s a skill that can enable the user to float and fight while in the air. It’s also one of the reasons why Pyo Hye-Won became my master. Few people had the ability to fight midair.

Before I realized it we’re already surrounded on each sides. Since, they encircled the entire forest. We had no choice but to be cornered in the middle.

-Hui-Ik

Hyewon-Unnie circled around mid air, while holding a light rapier. Her movements were swift and nimble. The rapier on her hand, looked more like a spear than a sword. It’s a blade specialized for stabbing enemies rather than cutting them.

Tankers are currently standing on the outermost side, followed by melee users, then rangers, and other ranged weapon hunters. Jo Yeon-Ho and I are currently in the core of the party.

Their attack began not long after.

Although they were called rodents. They don’t really look like ordinary rodents. In fact they have wings attached to their heads and little human-like bodies. It simply means they can fly! Their first target was Hye-Won who was floating alone in the air at the moment.

“Rangers!”

Those rangers couldn’t properly deal with all of them. They were flocking over together forming a black fog. Dozens of rodents headed towards Pyo Hye-Won. At that time, Jeong Sang-Jun, who was right below her, threw his shield into the sky.

-Clank!

“Nice!”

Hyewon-Unnie immediately grabbed it and threw her body forward with the shield in front of her.

Those Rodents in the lead were crushed by the shield’s momentum and instantly fell straight to the ground. While the rest of them dispersed, then turned around and regrouped from a distance.

She turned the shield back to block the onslaught, but the impact of the collision threw her straight to the ground.

“Ugh…”

There was no time to think about anything else because another group was running towards her again!

Pyo Hye-Won then quickly pummeled herself upward, and she was able to narrowly escape their attack. Those herds of rodents were stacked up together on the ground instead.

Professional Hunters are really different.

If she was an ordinary person, she wouldn’t have been able to escape all of that. She’d be covered with wounds like a fish stuck in a hole full of piranhas.

She has high agility and very excellent space utilization. So she was able to buy some time, for those rangers to reduce the number of rodents on the peripheral areas.

They seemed to have realized that attacking Pyo Hye-won was a waste of time. They paused for a moment, then turned over and headed towards us.

-Kekekekekekekekeke!

Jeong Sang-jun, who had no shield, became their first target. He quickly fell back, which left a gap in the formation.

Quadduk!

“Oops!”

“Ranged Fighters fall further back! Melee users advance forward!”

The whole field was covered with bloodshed. However, they were able to cope with the situation faster. The rangers dropped out, and all the melee users came forward. They started hacking every rodent they see with their knives and daggers.

Kiek… 

I caught a rat that was trying to sneak into us. I instantly slashed it with the Karambit.

Chow!

Blood splattered out instantly after the slash.

-These Humans are strong.

-Hunter, it’s a hunter!

-Human. With Hunters!

It seemed like they finally felt a sense of crisis because of the unusual situation.

Alright, if these rat bastards stop now then they’re actually quite lousy compared to their ranks.
