The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood

Chapter 47:

Huh? 

The pitiful victim he thought would be an F-Class hunter turned out to be an imposter with the same awakening level as him. The test of being an invisible person has ended because of that person. Kim Kiryeo has proven his abilities on the magic tower. 

Of all things, just of all things. 

I see. Why didnt I think of it until now? Thats right. Hes the F-Class appraiser who passed through the maze 

An unknown anxiety bloomed in his chest. It feels like an inexistent noose is gradually tightening around the neck. This mysterious man was strangely deeply involved in their work. Is it all just a coincidence? 

Well, this guy is really lucky. If he had made even a slight mistake, he would have been sold off, but it looks like he survived thanks to Kang Changhos disruption of the organization? 

Im not sure. 

Now that he thinks about it, the fact that his affiliation is blank seems quite suspicious. If he has analysis skills, he can easily get a job at a guild. 

It definitely feels like the same field, no matter how I look at it.

Could it be that the collapse of the human trafficking ring was some kind of power struggle? Pyo Nagil suddenly had this thought. In fact, he himself didnt like the emerging organization. 

After putting in effort to open trade routes for the illegal item distribution, they shamelessly rub it in our faces.

They must have had rival factions, given the way they conducted their business.

Hey, look at this guys eyes. Does he look like someone who works in a well-lit place? I bet hes definitely killed people. Mark my words.

Pyo Nagil poked at Kim Kiryeos ID photo printed in black and white. Of course, no one laughed at the joke. It was a story too good to just pass over. 

Hey, why are you so serious? Lighten up. If you think about it, this is a good situation. 

Yes?

The only hunter who caught the invisible man is not yet a member of the Magic Tower guild.

He jumps up from the chair he was sitting on.

It means that before Esther does something unnecessary, we can take preemptive action.

The man walked over to the mirror hanging in the corner of the warehouse and tidied up his hair.

***

Stop! Please stop! 

Just how good do you think youre going to get! Did becoming an Archmage at such a young age fall short in terms of achievements? A person like you has now even mastered the field of hard work! 

Somehow, its a fact that I sometimes forget since my reincarnation. 

In Kim Kiryeos studio, in front of the bathroom mirror.

Ha, as expected, Im a genius. 

I stuck my tongue out when I saw the scene unfold before my eyes. 

In fact, this week I locked myself in my room and concentrated on trying to figure out how to get my magic back. As you know, Earth and my hometown have significant differences in the environment. The biota is also very different. So, in order to use the magic I used back home here, I need to make major modifications to the magic. 

This is too easy, isnt it? Perhaps because its the magic I use most frequently? 

I managed to succeed in an intermediate-level spell in just a few days.

Squeak! 

Uhm, its perfect. 

A mouse on the white sink is cheering, Hooray! The small brown mouse, following my direction, shook its right hand, left hand, and left leg alternately.

In other words, this is the content of this update. 

[Changes in 1.1.0]

• Corpse manipulation can be used

I added another line to my research notes. 

Squeak squeak~

However, I shouldnt be satisfied here. Theres still a mountain of things to verify. I should also handle mammals larger than this at least once. I need to cross-verify whether the magic works without problems on birds and insects.

My ultimate goal is to deal with people, but I think it will be difficult to find fresh corpses.

For a moment, I thought about the carcass of the raccoon I picked up the other day. For reference, it was too damaged to be used. So, following the funeral customs of the Earth, I buried it in a sunny place. Because thats ethics.

I need a sample.

Tuk.

As the duration of the magic ends, the mouse collapses lifelessly. I put it back in the refrigerator and got ready to leave.

It may be a disgusting scene for people on Earth, but no, I have no choice either.

Lets see.

Anyway, personally, I think Korea is a good country. Because its a neighborhood where you can see the mountains by just turning your eyes a little 

As expected, a natural environment like this would be nice.

I decided to visit the nearby mountain to obtain a new corpse for testing magic. Coincidentally, there was a park along the way. So, I took a leisurely stroll, planning to walk and enjoy the scenery. 

Interesting.

Abundant air. Unusual shapes of gray clouds. Structures of the city, painted in various hues.

Stepping outside, I truly feel like Im in a different world. If only the circumstances were different, by now, I might have immersed myself in planetary observation.

Reincarnated as the weakest awakened person on Earth, kidnapped for possessing valuable skills, and marked by a dangerous guy named Kang Changho.

Huh? Why on earth did I get reincarnated?

Keugh, this darn F-Class shell! Why do I, a great magician, always have to move weakly!

My eyes feel moist. Perhaps thats why the scenery has been appearing blurry since a while ago.

. 

Wait, this isnt just simple moisture.

Uhm?

I stopped and looked straight ahead. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary park landscape. However, I could clearly feel the flow of magical power passing through them.

Hmm. 

Its a familiar discomfort. Someone transparent was covering my vision with their hand. Even when I tried to move past them, their persistent palm stuck, making it impossible to ignore.

What are you doing?

I asked into the air. The invisible man answered this.

So you can really see me. 

Its already annoying. Maybe I should have just gritted my teeth and pretended not to notice. While I was organizing my thoughts, the invisible man lifted the spell and spoke.

Haha, did that bother you so much? Relax your expression. I was just playing around.

A young man who looked to be in his college years appeared. His overall appearance reflected a well-maintained appearance.

Anyway, where are you going? Kim Kiryeo. 

But right now, other peoples impressions arent important. Wait, what did you just say? Kim Kiryeo? 

He know the owner of this body!

It was an effortless joke. A gentle expression. And even a precise greeting. The only assumption that crossed my mind was that this guy must be an acquaintance of Kim Kiryeo

Im on my way to the mountains 

Hiking? You punk, looks like youre already taking care of your health, huh?

The casual tone of the other person gradually fueled my speculations. But the problem is that even though I was facing an acquaintance like this right in front of me, I have no memory of it whatsoever.

Lets watch the situation for now.

I approached the conversation with intense tension, as if meeting a former classmate whose name I had forgotten.

Then can I ask you something before we go hiking?

What is it? 

No, I heard it somewhere. I heard you were the first to beat the Korean Magic Tower maze.

Hmm.

Are you close with Esther?

Am I close?

If you cleared the maze, you would have met the guild leader, wouldnt you?

But where on earth did such a rumor spread? Would someone who is an S-Class awakener and the representative of a guild be close with someone like me? 

I shook my head slowly. 

Really? Well then, do you currently have any contracts, or are you working as a mercenary? Anything like that?

He is visibly happy as I shake my head repeatedly. 

As expected, it seems you dont get deeply involved with guilds. 

Certainly, the conversation must have progressed to some extent. I was gradually contemplating identifying this unidentified person.

But you

He looks at my face. Then he tilted his head slightly, opened his eyes wide as if he had seen something interesting, and began to ask questions.

Why do you answer so well to someone youre meeting for the first time?

This b*stard

What is this punk doing?

A momentary cold sweat trickles down my spine. Its like melted ice slipping down my back. The truth is, we were strangers. Then how does he know my name, and why does he act friendly to me

Its interesting. Theres not a hint of hesitation in this situation. Its as if youre a well-trained agent.

I should just stay at home today. 

It would be nice if our kids were like this.

Im so scared; I feel like Im going to die.

Since were already on the subject, let me ask one more thing. Honestly, this is what Ive been most curious about. How do you manage to see through this stealth skill? 

.

Is it a skill or a tool? 

At first, I thought it was a close friend of Kim Gireo who appeared transparent. However, now that I see it, this guy completely tested my abilities.

Ah, damn it.

As expected, I should have continued pretending not to see it until the end!

What should I say? I cant say this honestly.

I unconsciously massaged the bridge of my nose due to the pounding headache. Perhaps this was Kim Kiryeos habit during his lifetime.

You dont want to talk? Thats fine then.

But then, as the silence unintentionally became longer, the person I was looking at said something unexpected. 

Originally, I thought it would be okay if I scared you a little, but after meeting you in person, I think it would be difficult to deal with you

I dont have to reveal the secret of seeing through invisible people. Well then, doesnt this mean the conversation ends here?

Can I just leave now? 

The voice of my heart came out because of my impatience. Hearing this, the young Earthling waved his hand with a surprised face. 

No, no, no. You should listen to the main point. Kim Kiryeo, are you surprisingly impatient? 

How did you find out my name? 

Now, is that the issue at this point? Then, lets be fair; Im Park Juntae. Park Juntae. 

The man who introduced himself as Park Juntae extended his right hand, offered a handshake. However, I didnt shake hands. I couldnt. 

It seems like you see something else?

Park Juntae. He quietly looks at me with a cold sneer on his lips. 

Damn it, why do I always have to deal with this crisis?

He was not a light attribute wizard.

This was the first time I had seen such an aggressive technique since I was reincarnated. This awakened person seemed to have the ability to cut anything he touched. While the magic had a narrow range, making it a high-risk spell, the power it wielded would likely be tremendous in exchange.

If I touch that hand, I will die.

An F-Class like Kim Kiryeo can be cut into cubes within 0.5 seconds. At this point, its almost as if hes thrusting a knife and threatening. I couldnt even twitch a finger.

Hey, laugh a little. I just want to make a suggestion today.

Yes?

Do you want to try working together with me? 

As I remained frozen in place, he continued speaking as if nothing was wrong. 

Actually, your ability conflicts with the business were going to do in the future.

Business?

But when I think about it, its such a waste. It would be more beneficial to have an awakened person like you on the team! 

I am not clumsy in the language of Earth. Because at least this lump of junk hasnt forgotten its native language. Therefore, I was able to understand the true meaning hidden in this sentence. 

Anyway, I personally want to recruit you. Regardless of what youve been paid so far, Ill promise you twice as much. How about it? 

This man plans to kill me if I refuse his offer.

In broad daylight like this, especially in a park with people coming and going?

So he had this intention from the beginning. 

Im not sure of the details, but since I seem to be a hindrance to their plans, I guess theyll have to kill me. However, when it comes time to deal with it, my abilities become tempting.

So, if it works out, thats good; if not, no harm done with that kind of proposal

Whats wrong? You dont want it? 

Even Park Juntae didnt seem to have any intention of waiting long for an answer. Following that, I sensed his magic ominously sharpening his teeth. To survive.

Youre giving me double?

I looked around, pretending to be interested in the offer. But unfortunately, the setting of the park in broad daylight did me no favors.

Damn it!

Weekday morning. Overcast weather. A long walking path.

Misfortune overlapped. At that time, there was no one in the surrounding radius.
