The Returner Switches Job To Hunter

"Does that even make sense?"

After seeing the man in front of the survivors, the bearded man, Go Ju Yeong, was at a loss of words.

"Three orcs."

They were on a completely different level than goblins. They were true warriors.

Humans have gradually become fatter due to modern technological advancements and a lack of exercise. But Orcs were not like that. They were a warrior race who were constantly engaged in battle.

He had managed to beat a group of orcs alone.

In the Anyang Amusement Park Dungeon, the trainer Lee HyunBin from Star Center was pretty popular.

A trainer that hadn't been able to awaken.

Most people would label someone as talentless if they didn't awaken by the age of thirty.

However, he had demonstrated strength comparable to a mid-rank... No, a top-ranking hunter.

Perfectly calculated movements gave the impression that they were observing an encyclopedia.

"Unbelievable..."

Hunter Hong Il Jeom was taken aback. It was difficult to believe that they were trembling and scared for their lives only a few moments before.

If someone overwhelmingly powerful takes the lead, a group of people can become stronger.

"They're on their way. Let's get started."

Someone who had been a normal human being until a few hours ago was now leading a group of hunters who had been hunting for many years.

"You're right, coach."

Kim TaeYang, the blond newbie hunter, was following HyunBin with a smile on his face.

Everyone followed HyunBin as he ran towards the dungeon's entrance.

"Didn't that person just awaken?"

Someone had spoken to Kim Taeyang when he turned his head. Kim InHo, a newcomer to the TooShin Guild.

"Are you addressing me?"

"Yes."

"Please leave me alone."

"Don't be that way. Isn't it true that we're friends of the same age?"

Kim TaeYang was becoming irritated by Kim InHo's words.

"Did he really awaken today?"

"Yes."

Kim InHo had a hard time believing it. If he had awakened today, it meant he was superior to him.

Even though he was a trainer, someone with no real-world combat experience was treated as a rookie in this world.

But no one dared to speak ill of HyunBin among the hunters present. They were all aware that they needed to follow this man's lead if they were to survive.

"This seems like a good spot."

Hyun, who was in front of the group, suddenly stopped.

"Let's fight them here."

 ** *

 Everyone in the room was taken aback when they heard what I said.

Why are you all shocked? It's not like you didn't realize escaping was out of the question.

"Do you really think that the orcs won't be able to catch up to us?"

'No way.'

I'm not sure what kind of hopes these people had, but escaping is impossible from my point of view.

They're driving us to a corner.

They roar every now and then. It may appear that they are merely attempting to intimidate their enemies. But in reality, they're calling for reinforcements.

I'd chosen a location where our enemies couldn't see us. As a result, there was no risk of being ambushed.

We needed to take care of the orcs around us before the horde got bigger.

"You see the Orc over there, don't you? The one that's bigger than the rest."

"That's most likely an Orc Champion."

The hunter's face turned pale.

"No way! This is the dungeon's first layer!"

"Then, should I ask them to leave? After all, this is just the first layer. They seem like they'll listen to our request."

This was the first layer of the dungeon, as the bearded hunter had mentioned. Since only weak monsters have appeared, this location has been used to train the new recruits.

But our villain had changed that by sacrificing a large number of people.

Was he trying to summon this orc champion?

No, I'm sure he was on the hunt for a more dangerous beast. That big guy was most likely going to be used to lure an even more significant threat.

"Magician, if you have Mez skills, use them as much as possible."

"I can use Slip..."

"You with the broken arm, please protect the Magician."

"Yes."

"Hunters Kim TaeYang and Kim InHo."

"You're right, coach."

"Yes."

"Both of you will take on the role of a tanker."

"Me?"

"Me?"

They were both taken aback.

It wasn't a goblin, but an orc. Not only that, but they lacked tanking experience. But we didn't have enough time or resources to come up with alternative plans.

"All you have to do is try to resist as much as possible."

"I'm sure I'll be able to do it. My class is All-Rounder, after all."

"All-Rounder?"

It was, as the name implies, a class that allowed them to take any position comfortably.

"I can be a tanker, a damage dealer, a supporter, a magician, or a healer; I can do everything."

It's uncommon to see an All-Around player. They're extremely useful, particularly in situations like this.

"Mr. Beard and the Sir over there, you're going to back me up."

"Uh... I'm not Mr. Beard. My name is Goo JuYeong."

"They're coming."

Since I'd worked as a trainer, taking a glimpse was enough to know how much experience they had.

After me, the person who had hurt his arm was probably the strongest here. But, since he was seriously injured, I'd decided to put him behind.

I asked him to protect the Magician, but I'm confident he'll be able to assist others as well.

"Can we pull it off?"

He asked me while feeling relentless.

You shouldn't put too much faith in someone who has only recently awakened.

"Of course."

The word failure isn't in my dictionary. Even if there is, I'm going to tear that page up and throw it away.

"Groar."

The group of orcs was looking in this direction. There were twelve of them. We had a total of six people. Even if they doubled our numbers, I believe we can defeat them.

They divided into three groups to corner us since we kept running around.

This was a popular strategy among orcs. To encircle the prey and prevent them from fleeing.

 And then they shout loudly. That was to increase the motivation of their fellow warriors.

"Grr... Groaaarrrr!"

An orc wielding an ax walked towards where I was standing.

It extended its ax-wielding arm and pointed at us.

It appeared to be challenging for someone to come out and fight.

"R... Really..."

The bearded man mumbled some words. The others were reacting in the same way.

"Please remember this. Fight in pairs. At all costs, avoid a one-on-one confrontation," I said while smiling.

They appear to have understood what I said.

Now, it was time they did the warrior roleplay.

"Grr!"

The Orc in front of me seemed angry. Is it because I'm not carrying any weapon?

Should I have drawn a weapon just to show respect to my opponent? I picked up a stone from the floor and waved it at the Orc. Oops, it got even angrier.

It snatched the ax with all its might and charged at me.

The simulation most likely went something like this in its head.

It would slash me in an instant. Then it would start killing the other people one by one. The only thing going through its mind right now was probably trying to show everyone how powerful it is.

I threw my stone towards its face. It used the ax on its hand to block it. He hit it with such strength that the rock turned into dust.

There goes my weapon.

The Orc comes up to me.

I deflected his attack and countered with a low kick.

Plaf!

It snorted and reacted as if a mosquito had bitten it.

Pow!

I hit him in the stomach but lost my balance and fell.

After watching me fall, the rest of the hunters groaned.

The orcs began to laugh.

I kicked him in the stomach, but it didn't hurt him at all. Instead of that, he bumped my head.

Because of the pain, I closed one of my eyes.

The Orc leisurely swung its club.

"Grrr!"

The Orc Champion was growing tired of the duel. No, it most likely assumed victory had already been decided.

The rest of the Orcs began to move after hearing the Champion's order.

"T... They're coming!"

From behind me, I could hear the guy shouting.

The Orcs began to move and targeted the hunters behind me.

The blondie and the other newbie were doing exactly what I had asked them to do.

"Well, then..."

If I beat the Orc that's in front of me, the one behind it is the Champion.

The rest of the group was doing everything they could to resist.

The Orc Champion stood back, arms crossed, watching everything from a safe distance.

It most likely believes there is no need for it to move.

[ Activating the skill 'Hundred Battles LV MAX' ]

When I use this skill, my close-range combat ability improves.

Now that everything is going as planned, I should be able to hunt with ease.

"Grr!"

The Orc Warrior in front of me has an expression on his face that says, "Just die already."

They became too arrogant as a result of my acting as if I was losing.

Crack!

I did some plastic surgery on the Orc's nose.

The worst noses are those that aren't raised or lowered at all. A more prominent nose has a greater impact and creates a better first impression.

He didn't seem to appreciate my intervention. The Orc took its ax and began waving it at me.

Customer satisfaction is always number one for me as a professional. So I'm willing to keep tweaking with its nose until it's happy with the results.

Crack!

Oops. I should try to balance the nose now that it's tilted to the left.

Pow!

Now I believe it is too tilted to the right.

Pow!

I sincerely apologize. I believe it is impossible to repair your face.

Instead of an answer, an ax was thrown at me.

The blood oil in its ax gives it a scary appearance. But it doesn't really matter. It's not like it's going to be able to hit me or anything.

I launched a counterattack, and the client collapsed to the ground.

"I hope you're reborn as a good Orc the next time."

Although the only good Orcs are the ones that are dead.

"Who's the next person in line?"

The Orc Champion groaned and flashed its teeth.

It was wielding a razor-sharp two-handed sword.

[ Acceleration. ]

I used another person's skill that was in my inventory. My legs were moving faster than usual. The tiredness had vanished completely.

I ran towards the Orc Champion.

The Orc Champion was a warrior who had fought many life-threatening battles and always claimed victory.

Orcs will not obey orders from those who are weaker than them.

If I kill the group's strongest Orc, the only one who can control everyone dies. Basically, the best thing we could do right now to survive was to kill the Orc Champion.

The skill 'Hundred Battles' revitalizes my whole body.

The Orc Champion attacks me, but I'm able to avoid it.

The air from the swing was so strong that I thought it would rip my skin off. I charged toward the Orc and bashed its chin with the ax after it had dried up.

Crack!

I flinched. That guy hit my ax with its forehead.

'Oops.'

With the two-handed sword in its hands, it targets my waist. This is going to be hard to dodge.

Clang!

I blocked the sword with my ax, but the blow was still powerful. It peeled some of the skin off my hands because I wasn't wearing gloves.

I took a step back. The Orc Champion tried to slash me with his two-handed sword to finish me once and for all.

I avoided the frontal assault by striking his foot with my ax.

I could hear him crying. I extended my hands in the air, accessed the inventory, and grabbed the short sword. It immediately tried to attack me again.

I narrowed the gap between him and me. The larger your weapon, the more difficult it will be to fight an opponent close to you.

[ Double Cut.]

I used the skill of a hunter that was quietly resting inside my inventory.

I thrust the dagger into the Orc's hand and took advantage of the opportunity to grab its two-handed sword.

I drew back from the Orc Champion and slashed it with the two-handed sword.

Its red blood drew a diagonal line. The Orc Champion's eyes were shaking as if he couldn't believe what was going on.

Everyone witnessed the death of the Orc Champion, the strongest of the Orcs, in my hands.

The Orcs were all taken aback by what had just occurred. The blondie took advantage of the distraction to kill an Orc.

Good job.

While gasping, the blondie smiled. Fortunately, the rest of the group was still alive.

"Oof..."

I breathed a sigh of relief. With the two-handed sword in my hands, I approached the orcs who were still alive.

We'd won the battle. It was an overwhelming victory for us.

The few orcs who were still alive escaped. They won't be able to form a group again now that their leader has died. At least not for the time being.

They could fight us individually, but they would be at a massive disadvantage.

Even amid this favourable situation, there was a problem.

"Ugh..."

"W... What should we do? He's losing too much blood!"

The Magician was feeling relentless. After all, the one that had protected him had received a fatal blow.

"P... Please... Tell my clan... And friends... To protect in place of me..."

"S... Stop talking, please. I... I'm really sorry... Sniff."

It almost looked like a funeral. The bearded man was also badly injured. But the other person was coughing blood.

"Store."

"Huh?"

"W... What happened?"

I'm sure they all saw me do this same thing before. But when they saw that man suddenly disappear, they were all taken aback.

The state of the group was very poor. Some people were seriously injured, and others were unable to move because their stamina was on the floor. There was only one thing I could do in this situation.

"How about everyone playing Pikachu?"

"What?"

Everyone seems to be taken aback. I may have chosen the wrong words. But don't worry, there's room in my inventory for everyone.

"Now come on, get over here."

It won't be hard catching the tired ones. And I can just use force on those that still have some strength left.

That's how I stored everyone in my inventory and ran as fast as possible to try to get out of the dungeon.

I was running through the entrance. The dungeon collapsed shortly after I entered it. But I'm sure that they were able to dig through the stones by now.

If they hadn't done even that, he'd have had to hit those who came to the rescue.

If the entrance remained closed, it meant that the rescue team was to blame for the deaths of everyone inside.

"Oof..."

I could smell fresh air coming from the front door. It seems like I was worried for nothing. A group of people wearing armour with shields, spears, and swords entered the dungeon. They seemed surprised to see me.

It seemed like they wanted to ask me about what had happened, so I tried to explain to them.

"Hi. How much is the reward for catching the villain?"

'Oops, I subconsciously asked about money first.'
