The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood

Chapter 61:

Kiryeo hesitantly retrieved the floating item. Honestly, he still doesnt know what it is.

Ah, come to think of it, whats happening with Yoonseungs side?

He unconsciously turned his head toward the passage. Then he made eye contact with several people.

!

Ahn Yoonseung and the attackers were holding their breath and watching this direction.

***

From afar, it looks like a comedy. Up close, its a tragedy. The same event can appear completely different depending on the perspective, creating entirely different landscapes.

.

Therefore, this situation is nothing more than a so-called luck, which appears completely different for the observer. 

The boss

Ahn Yoonseung shivered.

By the time Kiryeo attracted Grids attention, it was undoubtedly anticipated that his balance would be disrupted as well.

Huh. 

It is truly a sophisticated hunting method.

Instantly detecting the Grids weaknesses. After naturally causing the monsters balance to collapse. And deliver such an accurate blow in that split second.

Wow

Its truly admirable. It was an incredibly clever maneuver. He turned his head at the bosss roar without realizing it, nearly missing that remarkable moment.

Ahn Yoonseung thought again about the scene he had just seen. 

Sharp sliding kick followed by the bosss death.

In his eyes, the series of events seemed thoroughly calculated.

Is skill even necessary to deal with such monsters?

Even the A-Class boss is nothing more than a foolish beast in the hands of that awakened person.

The man who killed the boss slowly gets up again.

Ahn Yoonseung became so absorbed in his skills that he even forgot about the fight. 

Of course, those people were also dumbfounded.

What! No way. Facing the Grid barehanded?

In the brief moment they looked away, the boss fell, and even the coveted item they were targeting was snatched away. The cult members at the Rakshasa Temple were more shocked than Ahn Yoonseung. 

However, the person involved in the incident still had an emotionless face.

Hmm. 

The reward for killing the Grid. An unidentified blue core.

Kiryeo rolled it in his hand, then shouted loudly.

Ahn Yoonseung! 

The dungeons owner is dead. Thanks to that, a new exit has appeared in this room. So, why bother dealing with those psychos? They can just run away.

Run this way!

Kim Kiryeo gestures in front of the gate. It was his signal to withdraw. 

But the ice wizard didnt let them go easily. 

No!

They need to take the core! 

The cult member urgently casts a skill. Up until now, they had been adjusting their pace for battle, but now it was a whole different game. 

Heuk.

He gathered all the mana in his body. The skill he was going to use was [Frost Storm]. When the ice wedge hits the target, it is a powerful technique that causes a series of cold explosions and freezes the entire area. 

Crack. 

Fierce magical power gathers at a point in the air. While Ahn Yoonseung was already getting closer to the gate exit, perhaps the activation of that magic would be faster than his escape. 

Phew. 

H, Hyung-nim! Behind me! 

Yoonseung also seemed to sense something and hurriedly raised his shield. Someone blocked this.  

It was Kim Kiryeo himself. 

Hyung! 

Whoosh! As the completed ice spike was about to fly, Kiryeo reached into his pocket and held something out in front of him. 

Its none other than that. 

I didnt want to use this. 

A small hand mirror? 

Huh? 

Sparkle.

At the moment when it seemed like the ice was about to touch the glass of the mirror, he blinked a couple of times, and the scenery of the world had changed.

How did this happen?

The magic was clearly directed at them just now.

-Boom!

Before he knew it, the head of the ice spike had turned in the opposite direction, as if reflected in a mirror.

H, heuk 

There was no escape. The caster, suddenly caught in a frost storm, quickly froze along with his companions.

At this point, a forgotten tool appears.

Tsk, its too early for the practical test.

The very item purchased from the Hunter Market. The Reflector.

[Reflector] 

[Effect: Reflects light-elemental magic back to the caster for attacks of E-Class or lower.] 

Originally, this was just a trivial item with such abilities, but with Kiryeos exceptional knowledge, he was able to modify it.

[Reflector] 

[Effect: Reflects light-elemental magic back to the caster for attacks of A-Class or lower.] 

Regardless of the attribute, any magic that makes contact is entirely reflected. Why are there all these scam items? 

However, upon closer examination, there were many flaws. First, the magic must have a clear directionality, and it must strike this small hand mirror. 

If Im not careful, its likely to become useless. As long as the opposing magician changes the scope so that the magic is not reflected, it will be over.

Since the original version is a low-level magic tool, its durability is not very good. 

Oh my. 

Crack.

In the meantime, the mirror of the Reflector shattered into three pieces. He looked down at the broken magical tool with a bitter expression.

Anyway, lets go out.

And then, after a moment, Kim Kiryeo belatedly took his companion with him. But there was something odd about Ahn Yoonseungs expression. 

Hyung-nim! 

The A-Class hunters eyes grew glassy. This is because he was greatly impressed by the other persons actions.

He tried to avoid a fight like that, but he never thought he would immediately use his skills when his younger brother was in danger

Moreover, the skill of reflecting back to the opponent, a technique that even he, as an awakened A-Class defender, wasnt sure he could block, is truly remarkable! Indeed, he is an exceptional person.

Character is character, skill is skill.

The evaluation of Kim Kiryeo was gradually turning into a cult. Of course, the person involved has no way of knowing this.

Kiryeo quietly left the gate without paying much attention to Yoonseung, who was filled with emotion.

Phew. 

After leaving behind the hellish golden scent, his cell phone finally picked up radio waves.

I wonder how many times the police have visited us this year.

We should report the gate crimes to the association. Ill make the call right away!

They proceeded with the report immediately. Not long after, several employees from the association arrived. The terrorists left behind at the gate were promptly arrested under emergency conditions, frozen as they were.

Because ice magicians are born with high resistance to cold. Even if it looks like that on the outside, it probably isnt dead.

Instead of interrogating him, just torture him. 

Kiryeo poured curses on the heads of the criminals being arrested and returned to where Ahn Yoonseung was standing. 

It seemed like the incident was over.

4 pm.

Korea Hunter Association main building.

Hmm.

The woman with long hair paced nervously in the corridor.

When will I receive further contact?

She was none other than Seonwoo Yeon. When asked why she seemed so restless, well, its because she just received a report that a steel theft crime had just occurred. 

Could there be a problem with the suppression team?

The hunter with the [Search] skill might have been on standby to prevent potential criminals from escaping. 

But then.

Wiiiing. 

The automatic door at the end of the hallway opened, and a man walked out.

Ah. 

Bright dyed hair and those snake-like eyes. Doesnt that give her a familiar impression?

Welcome. Hunter Kim Kiryeo. 

The more often they meet, the more even an unpleasant face grows on her, doesnt it? 

Seonwoo Yeon greeted him warmly and then, as always, asked him how he was doing. 

Are you here for work?

No, I got caught.

Looking closely, this F-Class hunter has something strapped to their wrist. Its handcuffs.

Then, have a good time at work.

Kim Kiryeo was taken to the basement of the association, muttering with vain eyes.

.Its a confusing sight.

***

Im hungry. In dramas, detectives usually order food like beef soup at times like this.

Cant I eat some too?

Associations first basement floor. 

I was forcibly dragged into a windowless room, and feeling half-annoyed, I slumped onto the sofa.

This is all Ahn Yoonseungs fault. 

Damn it!

When I informed the Association staff of the situation, Ahn Yoonseung made a slight slip of the tongue. 

-Hunters. By the way, it seems like the exit is open?

-Ah, yes.

-Who caught the boss?

-Thats it, Kiryeo Hyung 

I tried to make up for it later, but the result was as expected. The association people swiftly arrested me as if they had caught a culprit.

Unauthorized entry into the Gate.

Violation of grade restrictions.

Unlicensed hunting.

There are as many as three charges alone this time.

Im doomed!

They say the first two can be completed with a fine, but the problem is the last item. That one could potentially lead to prison if mishandled, so I did my best to defend myself.

To summarize, you are just a transporter and Ahn Yoonseung caught all the monsters in the Golden Fragrance, right? 

Yes! 

Is it really just a mistake to leave out the entry form?

Of course! 

And did this earnestness work?

After a while.

Although the association employees looked reluctant, they had no choice but to let me go.

Hunting an A-Class boss as an F-Class? Thats an accusation that nobody could prove.

Thank you, Seonwoo Yeon! 

In particular, the previously conducted awakening retest results table was very helpful.

Thanks to this, I was released with only a warning for not reporting entry to the gate.

Hahaha! Freedom.

Clank.

With my handcuffs removed, I walk down the hallway with light steps.

Finally, all investigations have been completed.

The only thing left to do now is to sell the core collected in the item box and become rich!

Huh. 

However, at that moment, a cold sweat ran down my spine. 

Wait.

Ah. Suddenly, I realized something. 

Come to think of it

In Korea, when buying and selling items from the Gate, its mandatory to use the national exchange. Its mandated by law due to tax issues. As an alien, Im not familiar with the details, but one thing is for sure, there will be rough transaction records left around this time. 

.

Even if you sell high-grade material, its still just F-Class until now, well. There wasnt much talk about it on the exchange, though.

Right now, Im getting suspicions that Ive messed with a Golden Fragrance monster. What if I trade a bunch of cores during this time?

Oh my. 

Its 100% caught.

And as expected, soon after the investigation ended for both of us, Ahn Yoonseung contacted me. 

-Hyung-nim, I did mention that I took down all the golems, but then the investigators asked where the evidence of the hunt was, and suddenly they started talking about tax audits..

Yeah, thats right. 

Ill bring it now.

Tuk.

Its a moment of silence after the call ends, and I swallow back the tears without saying a word.

My money

In conclusion, the materials from the golems eventually found their rightful owner. 

It was karma.

***

Thursday morning.

Yoonseung-ssi. 

Ah, sunbae-nim! 

Ahn Yoonseung encountered a familiar face near the association. Its Hunter Seonwoo Yeon.

Are you on your way out of the exchange?

Yes, yes! I was selling some golem parts.

Normally, they would have ended the greeting like this. However, Seonwoo Yeon stopped the other person as if she had something to say.

If its a golem, then yesterdays golden fragrance? 

Why? 

Uhm, I have something to ask you.

Her tone was cautious.

As expected, Hunter Kim Kiryeo killed Grid, right?

After hearing those words, Yoonseung stiffened visibly, unable to respond. Anyone can see that he is a person who has something to worry about.

Phew. 

I, I, I didnt say anything 

Theres no need to be so nervous. If someone sees it, theyll think Im trying to eat you. 

At this, Seonwoo Yeon let out a short sigh. 

Kim Kiryeo, this person. He actually went and killed an A-Class boss. 

Just be careful.

Ugh. 

Do you know that various rumors are already circulating among the staff?

In fact, Kim Kiryeo was accumulating more karma in real time.

Because of this Golden Fragrance incident, the Hunter Association has finally begun to keep an eye on the awakened person named Kim Kiryeo. 

Although it ended with minor disciplinary action for now, the record of failing to report entry into the Gate became the culprit that triggered a press conference on the issue in the future.

This is the final warning. If you get caught sneaking F-Class into higher-level Gates again, youll face serious consequences. 

If he had followed Seonwoo Yeons advice, he wouldnt have gotten to that point .

She thought for a moment.

Anyway, that guy Kim Kiryeo is the biggest problem. Because he has the skills, Ahn Yoonseung feels comfortable pushing F-rankers like him into A-Class gates without any worry.

If Kim Kiryeo were actually an F-Class, Ahn Yoonseung would have stopped him from illegally entering, even if he had to worry. 

It wont work. Lets just say a word. 

Why are you suddenly making a call?

To your porter.

Seonwoo Yeon took out her phone and made a call to someone. However

[The phone is turned off, use the voicemail]

The call just went to voicemail.

It seems like hes ignoring her. 

Why? Isnt he picking up?

It seems like he turned off his phone.

But since the person involved in the incident has gone silent, theres nothing more she can do. 

In the end, they ended their conversation in a blur.
