The Story That Begins – 3
“young master! young master!”
In the middle of an unknown street.
Versailles, who was summoned there, hurriedly called for Han Tae-jin.
It was in the state of being summoned and moved and polymorphed in the form of Reina quickly.
This is the first outdoor summoning after meeting the owner.
-If anyone sees me summoning you, annoying rumors may spread. Or maybe you will get some misunderstanding and attention.
I told my owner that I should summon him whenever something happened, and he made my ears sting.
Each time he told himself the above.
Unnecessary attention will lead to unnecessary things.
I don’t want to put myself in any danger with those things.
However, he summoned himself to the middle of the street in the late afternoon when there was a lot of crowd.
Because this clearly suggests that we are in a crisis that we cannot handle alone, and that we are in a state where we cannot even ask for help.
Lesha hurriedly called for Taejin.
And soon.
“Lesha, here you are.”
I heard my master’s voice, and Lesha hurriedly approached her, sweeping her chest. Blood running down your temples, a soft voice, and a heavy breathing.
Lesha half-cryed and supported him, who was not feeling well.
“Hey, Master! What the hell is this!?”
Taejin pointed a finger somewhere without saying a word.
There, a bizarre monster, a combination of a spider and a human, was buzzing.
“It’s a villain. Grade B.”
“Is that guy doing this to his master?!”
“What, is that so?”
“Ugh, really!”
-slap!
Suddenly, Lesha hit Taejin’s back with his palm.
Of course, there was no force, so only the sound was loud.
It’s like a mother’s love-hate smashing.
“Ugh!”
“That’s right, it’s cheap! Ugh, really. Because this is why I can’t let the master go alone! Why are you always getting hurt?”
Lesha vomited out her resentment to the fullest.
I am so anxious that I cannot live.
What the hell kind of fate is it that the vow of [salvation] is not engraved, or is it not getting involved in dangerous things every day?
I was upset and angry again.
The object of anger was, of course, the subject who made the master like this.
Taejin whined and scratched between the throbbing wingbones, and said as if in a grumbling tone.
“Oh, it hurts. Lesha.”
“I hit you because it hurts! really! It would have been impossible without me!”
“But it is my mission as a hunter to keep the citizens safe.”
At Taejin’s blunt words, Lesha was at a loss for words for a moment.
He couldn’t understand why he uttered it as if it was a natural mission to sacrifice for the people who didn’t even know one face to face, even though he might have died if he made a mistake.
At that, a grumbling grunt came out of his mouth.
“But the master is still a student… !”
However.
“… Lesha, but now is not the time… .”
“ah!”
At Taejin’s words, Lesha hurriedly turned her head away.
And I stared at the villain who was standing shyly.
“So you mean that bastard? This is what the master made.”
“The holders are coming soon. Until then, you can just hold on for a while.”
“no.”
“yes?”
Lesha’s eyes radiate sad poison.
Around her body, black magic that seemed to contain jet black began to burn.
Magic power like a black hole bloomed in both hands.
Soon, the resentment towards the master who sacrificed for the safety of others rather than his own turned towards him.
And, the anger at the sea dragon fin steamed dish he was preparing for at an expensive price turned to him.
– Whoops, whoops.
Bones sounded as if reassembly was taking place inside her clothes.
It was the gradual liberation of polymorphs.
And soon, his nails grew as thick and long as that of a wildcat.
“Lesha? Are you okay?”
No matter how much succubus queen you are, your opponent is a B-class villain that combines humans and monsters.
Taejin asked him a little worriedly, but the corners of Lesha’s lips went up.
He seemed a little excited (?).
“I will kill anyone who touches you.”
“… .”
For some reason, Taejin had to feel a chill in his spine.
“Lesha… ?”
“Can you make money by catching that and selling it with the legs?”
“What… right?”
The corpses of villains controlled by monsters were also sold.
As long as it is well preserved as a monster.
Of course, it was cheaper than the corpse of a pure monster, mixed with human traces.
Still, Lesha’s eyes lit up.
“But why?”
“I have something to take.”
“Are you going to get it?”
– Crook.
– Pasuk!
At that time, it came rushing in like a surprise attack.
At the same time, Lesha ran out with the momentum to face it.
It was an overwhelming speed that was hard to follow with the eye.
“Give me back my sea dragon stew! You bastard-!”
– Kwaang!
After a while, the magic wave caused by the collision of two bodies spread wildly on the street full of abandoned cars and junk.
##
“manager! The magic wave instantly exceeded 2,500 meta!”
“What? At the same point?”
In a car running with the siren blaring, a man looked at the screen of the reader and said so, and the woman driving asked, frowned.
After graduating from the academy, she was immediately scouted by the Monster Management Bureau, and after only 5 years, she was assigned to the main office and is currently active as [leader of the villain investigation team].
A woman with a young and sharp appearance, with split bangs down to her chin, and with her short hair, her side hair and back hair look good together.
The outfit, as usual, was a dull airline jumper, skinny jeans and black sneakers.
She was a woman with a unique style that seemed crude, sophisticated, and free.
The woman’s name is Kim Hye-seo.
At the age of 26, he was an elite among the elite who received a [DIA] grade in the evaluation of the main office and was promoted to the head of the investigation team.
And in the world of holders who are graded every year through the evaluation of literary and martial arts tests, it was unusual to obtain a diamond grade below [Platinum], the highest grade, in 5 years, so she was quite a celebrity not only for holders but also for hunters.
It is known that diamond-level holders are comparable to S-class hunters as a joke.
Of course, it was dismissed as an unreasonable story among hunters.
There were only three platinum-level holders known to the public so far.
The detailed identity is hidden behind a veil, and each of them said that their abilities were so formidable that they could clear the S-class dungeon alone.
Of course, it was still just a rumor.
It’s because the three legends were constantly twisted and inflated and shrunk like a balloon.
As is generally known, the holders are trained in a high-security underground special training ground to prevent leaks towards the villain.
No one knew because they were being trained in an ironclad security facility, unlike the hunters’ dungeon raids with a somewhat standardized frame.
Their training was different from that of hunters because of the villains whose fighting tendencies change every moment and the variants popped out.
That is why there were many cases of death while training.
Of course, the number and reason were unclear.
Anyway, among those holders, her main task as an elite is ‘Investigation of Villains’.
From identifying the movements of the villains, searching for a base through backtracking and drawing up an organization chart, and even conducting investigations through spies.
Kim Hye-seo is the leader of the team that is in charge of the comprehensive investigation into the villains roaming in the capital.
“Damn, too many people.”
Hyeseo slammed the steering wheel.
Roads are a mess with people running away and abandoned cars.
It is impossible to travel by car.
In the end, Hye-seo slid out of the driver’s window and stood on the bonnet.
“manager! Are you going alone!? Going with the support team… !”
Deputy sergeant Dongjin grabbed the steering wheel and shouted with concern.
However, Hye-seo was already preparing for a leap forward.
“sh*t, mam. After all, it’s Arachne’s serum villain, so at least it’s a B-class.”
“That, but… !”
“When the support team arrives, search the surrounding area. If it was a B-class, the little bastards would have followed.”
– Whoops!
Before even hearing an answer, Hyeseo cast a leap like a Moorim master.
Hyeseo soars 20m with the sound of the wind.
The bonnet collapsed in that leap.
And, as soon as he returned to the main office today, Dongjin, who looked like he had to write a police officer, cried and cried.
“ah! manager-! Please don’t jump from the bonnet-!!”
Of course, I couldn’t hear Hyeseo’s ears, who were flying away as if riding a piggyback in the wind.
##
‘Is your instantaneous magic power up to 2,500?’
Arachne’s serum villain is definitely a B-level. No matter how high the horsepower was, it could not exceed 1,000.
However, the red dot on the screen coordinates of the reader instantly jumped to 2,500, indicating that there may be something else besides the reported villain.
If it’s a villain or a scavenger, it’ll be at least an A grade.
So Hye-seo speeds up even more.
If a class A appeared, the surrounding area would be in chaos and massacres of civilians would be taking place.
‘Damn bastards, when did you crawl in again?’
Thousands of Vulcan cannons built on the barrier that reach the clouds shoot down all unauthorized flying boats and flying objects.
And at each entrance of the wall, guards stand guard.
Also, there are countless CCTVs in the city, but a villain appeared on the street in broad daylight as if mocking the security and surveillance.
C-class or lower dwarves were good at hiding their black magic. This is because the horsepower level is low.
Therefore, while disguised as a human, it is possible to pass through the black magic induction stage, but B-class and above are bound to be caught in the insensitivity period.
In particular, a number over 2,500 would never be able to penetrate the inductor.
So her planting was not at all uncomfortable.
Since I took over as the head of the main office’s villain investigation team, the frequency of villains’ appearance has been gradually increasing.
Her main task is not to prevent the appearance of villains, but to track down the villains and find the organization chart, stronghold, and executives and bosses.
In fact, from her point of view, villains had to appear.
However, these days, high-ranking villains have been appearing frequently, and civilian casualties have been increasing, so I couldn’t feel at ease.
So I speeded it up even more.
To save at least one more person.
‘please… .’
The haunting location has arrived. I jumped to the top of the building and looked at 13th Street where the villain was supposed to be.
‘What, who arrived first?’
Fortunately, he didn’t seem like an A-class villain.
Because the two forms were fighting a duel.
No, to be precise, the Arachne-type villain was being attacked unilaterally.
‘Who is it? Shouldn’t the support team still be far away?’
As a passing hunter, he did not see any equipment or weapons.
In particular, the fighting style was hand-to-hand combat.
It is a combat method that is different from Hunter.
A fighting method closer to a holder or a villain than a hunter.
‘But I would be the only one around.’
Hyeseo sprinted through the air at the unfamiliar sight and flew away quickly.
And soon, I was able to clearly see the shapes that were visible from a distance.
again and.
– Kwajik!
– Close!
– Kwaang!
I could see a woman beating a B-class Arachne-type villain with her bare hands.
[smash]
It was just a horrifying sight that suited the word.
“sun! Dragon! Steam! It’s all because of you!”
A woman who spit out strange words, tearing apart a spider’s legs that are harder than steel, and tearing apart a villain’s stomach.
The woman who had turned seven years old was close to a ‘villain’ by anyone looking at it.
‘Are you a new villain?’
It was a reasonable doubt.
