Evolution Theory of the Hunter Chapter 149

Kyle: Not edited.

I didn't know how to react to this.

In the first place, dungeons up to level 5 were blocked and I was managing the Red Holes. If I wanted to then I could block the level 6 dungeons right now because I had enough reward points.

To grab my collar when it wouldn't be enough to bow down to me. This guy…….

As I kept my mouth closed it seems Joo Sae-yoon thought I was scared as he continued coercing me with bloodshot eyes.

"Promise! To not do it!"

I was wondering what to do but I thought it would be better to use other people that to use my own hands.

As I lightly swung my hands, the hunters around us all crowded around. I had used the Conscript skill one more time.

Even if it was the stubborn Joo Sae-yoon, he wouldn't be able to prevent himself from being fl.u.s.tered while surrounded by hundreds of hunters.

"What are these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds……?"

"What is what. They're people that came to get rid of the guy that's rampaging in someone else's territory."

I said while letting out a laugh.

"These……! Do you not know what happens when you provoke a government a.s.sociate?"

He acted in a confident manner but I could feel his voice tremble minutely.

Cho Young-gu who interfered belatedly opened his mouth while grumbling.

"Ah. So noisy when we're eating. The 'government a.s.sociate' over there. Do you not know where this is? Do you think someone will know if we killed you and buried you here?"

Joo Sae-yoon's face puffed up to the point of exploding.

"You, you guys don't seem to know how much of a problem this will become. I will explain one more time……."

*Places hand*.

"Huh? Let go of me? Whose body are you putting your hands on right now!"

"If you don't want things to get rough then follow obediently."

"Hey f.u.c.k! Let go of me I said!"

Hunters gathered. Cho Young-gu strangled his neck while others held his limbs from both sides causing him to choke and flail.

However, even as the same level 6, Cho Young-gu had overwhelming more power. This was the difference between a guy that raised his level with items and a hunter raised ability through real combat.

In the end Joo Sae-yoon had no choice but to get pulled away.

"You b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! You all better resolve yourselves! You won't be able to get even close to dungeons!"

I could hear him being violent even as he was being pulled away.

Ahhh!

The sound of something getting further and something hitting the ground could be heard.

It seems they threw him under the hill.

Eum Young-hyeon glanced back and opened his mouth.

"He didn't die right?"

"Probably."

I shrugged and continued my words.

Thinking about it, this guy kept a neutral stance the entire time. It seems he thought I would take care of it on my own.

"Either way, does General Eum have something to say to me separately? I think the only thing the government team has to say is that ridiculous things that guy just now said."

"I got dragged here by that guy. I just wanted to say my thanks. My life got saved thanks to you after all."

"Yes?"

"Why are you surprised when I said something obvious?"

"Right. I wonder why I was so surprised. When it's so obvious."

There were not many normal humans so Eum Young-hyeon's thanks felt extremely foreign. To be honest, reactions like Joo Sae-yoon's seemed more obvious after all.

"I want to repay you for this but I don't have something give you in particular so contact me later sometime."

Eum Young-hyeon pa.s.sed me a business card. On it, Team Mercenary, Yellow Sea Region Team Leader Eum Young-hyeon was written.

"You're part of Mercenary?"

"That is so."

"Um…… Do you know someone called Eum Hyeon-joon?"

"It's my younger brother."

"The difference in age is……."

"He's the youngest of 5 brothers and sisters. He's a guy that has been brought up while constantly adored."

"Ah…… Yes."

He wasn't a person that went well with adorable though.

Either way, there was a reason Eum Hyeon-joon got into Team Mercenary I see. I thought that his abilities were lacking but was it something like a parachute? (Kyle: 'Parachute appointment' in Korea is a closely related person that has a high position in a company/business helping someone get in. Basically corruption…….)

"I hope that you won't misunderstand. I didn't recommend him or anything, I was surprised as well when he got into Mercenary as well."

"Haha. I didn't think anything like that."

"Your expression seemed to be thinking just that. Well, it's fine if it wasn't."

It wasn't like my face was an electronic display that showed everything I was thinking or something.

Whew, I let out a sigh like that and shook my head when I matched sights with An Gyu-b.u.m.

Come to think of it, this guy was glaring at me since a while ago. Did he come because he had something to say? Exchanging greetings with our relations.h.i.+p is…… No, I don't think we have anything say anymore. It's not like he has a grudge with me after all.

Well, he did seem to be angry the entire time. Should I say that I have completely forgotten about him while checking the Effort skill's abilities.

I instead felt refres.h.i.+ng thinking about how he couldn't tell the real potential of the skill and mocked me.

"Why did you come here?"

"Where did you buy that?"

"What are you talking about."

"The van over there at the back. I have heard that there's not a single place in the world that can create vehicles that can withstand hunters' attacks."

"Ah. The van. That's not for sale."

"So how much is it."

He's talking like some oil billionaire.

Did you think I would sell this?

"1t."

"Okay. I'll buy it."

"I wasn't even planning on…… hm?"

Wait a minute.

What did this guy just say?

"Why are you looking at me with such an expression? I said that I would buy it though."

"N, no, wait a minute……."

This was the first time someone surprised me so much after Soo-ah.

Was 1t some house's dog's name.

"If it's difficult immediately you can contact me later."

After saying so he sent his business card flying.

Checking it, it was certainly his business card. What. Was this guy being serious?

"Well…… I will think about it."

It was confusing somehow. Of course, that amount of money was something that surpa.s.sed my imagination. There was nothing to lose. I just had to buy another one after all.

But something felt off. A trillion for a single vehicle? Logically speaking, no matter how good it is that's not a price one would pay.

In that sense, the portable bed that he bought was the same. To buy that at 10b. If he had such money, it would be cheaper to have a house on a truck.

I wonder why he was messing around with the money so much when it was pointless.

Just because he had a lot of money?

No way. Guys with a lot of money were usually stingier with their money.

There was no way a rich person would spray money into the air just because they had a lot of money. Guys with such personalities would be dropped from the potential heir list from the beginning.

From the point of view of those that are maintaining their fortune, such a guy wouldn't be able to rise as the owner of a company after all.

Even if An Gyu-b.u.m seemed to have middle schooler syndrome, he wasn't an idiot.

I thought that there was definitely a reason to it.

"Let me ask something."

"What is it."

"Where are you planning on using this?"

"What will the guy selling it do knowing that."

"I'm not going to sell it if you don't tell me the reason."

An Gyu-b.u.m's expression crumpled up.

"Collecting cars is my hobby. Is that fine?"

"Ah. It's quite a believable story."

In any case, I understood that he didn't want to tell me.

Joo Sae-yoon was able to return with his body intact.

Since they rolled him down the hill to go well, it probably worked to disgrace him. It was something I heard from someone but it felt quite refres.h.i.+ng.

The 3,000 hunters separated themselves appropriately and started pursuing the Chungho Group.

The government team also started leaving the base to earnestly pursue. They will have bloodshot eyes chasing around Chungho Group escapees trying to see how gets more achievements.

With this, it can be said that the forest was taken care of.

The first thing I did after the forest work was over was using the Mystic Dungeon to find out the location of the next ruin. I was able to check the location of the next ruin with the blinking red dot.

The location was…….

The Bering Strait that connected Alaska and Russia. A new land that rose like the Yellow Sea. It was a land that was being called New Alaska.

I had thought that it would obviously be in the Yellow Sea and was looking at the region with a blank expression. It wasn't like there was no direct path to it but it was a situation where we had to cross China and go through Russia.

We had to cross the borders of two countries so it was not an easy path to travel. I didn't have a pa.s.sport in the first place too.

The Strengthening Stones and bonus EP was certainly a considerable profit but I thought about if there was enough merit to be worth crossing two borders.

On top of that, that region was a place Russia and America were competing over.

From America's point of view, it was a perfect chance to complete their ambition of connecting their land to the Bering Strait. If that happened, they would be able to escape their situation of being an internationally isolated country.

Also, Russia was struggling to use this to rip off money from America.

That's why there was a struggle as compet.i.tive as Korea versus China happening there.

Jumping in there and searching for the ruin was not something I felt inclined to do.

I decided to think about it slowly for now.

No, I was planning on resting.

We decided to return to Seoul to rest.

"Wheeew."

Soo-ah stretched her body like a cat.

She was agile on top of being flexible. She eats food like a pig so I had no idea how she maintains that figure.

"Hm? You're already up?"

"Is this your house?"

It has already been 3 days since returning from the Yellow Sea.

In that time, Soo-ah had been here as if living in my house.

"Because my older sister brought her boyfriend over……."

"I think you said such an excuse before as well."

"It's a different boyfriend this time."

"Are you making your sister a debauchee?"

"Ahaha."

Soo-ah laughed awkwardly and continued.

"But where are you going in the morning?"

"Looking for a house."

"Ooh…… You're finally moving to an apartment?"

"No, I think an apartment would be overdoing it. So I'm planning on going to a detached house. A large land as much as possible."

For now, there were two parasites and it didn't seem like they were going to live while caring about others' opinions.

I think it would be better to just use a bit more money to get a large detached house instead.

Since my main job was monster hunting there was no need to be in the crowded Seoul downtown.

That's why I was aiming for a large house in the outer region of Seoul.

It was plot of land that was originally an elementary school that was modified and used as a house. It had a large schoolyard and although it was a bit run down it also had a gymnasium that could be used to do sports in.

Conveniently, I had a lot of money piled up. The close to 7,000 items that I had were all given to the market and since there were so many I got a message saying that it will take a few days for the money to come in.

Even so, I had gotten 300b as the first payment. They said that altogether a total of close to 2t will come in…….

It didn't feel real at all. At this point, it didn't feel like money but some random number.

Right. I also bought 20 yoplaits and threw them away after only licking the lid.

It was rather moronic, but I always wanted to try it once.

"I want to go as well."

"I will also go."

Edward who was sleeping while stuck to the ceiling opened his eyes.

I didn't get used to that no matter how many times I saw it. Either way, if I moved to another house we wouldn't b.u.mp into each other so it should become more comfortable.
