The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood-Chapter 49:
Chapter 49:
Hunter Seonwoo Yeon?
Kiryeo-ssi?
The two people spot each other and widen their eyes in surprise.
Whats going on? We received a report of an awakened individual rampaging in the park
Perfect timing. I need your skills. The suspect has escaped.
Yes?
Kim Kiryeo immediately explained the situation to the police who arrived.
Anyway, its not like youre hurt somewhere right now, right?
Yes?
Perhaps due to the fact that the victim seemed quite unharmed, the response was somewhat harsh.
Do you remember any details about the suspects appearance?
I will check the CCTV and then come back!
Fortunately, not all police officers were like that. After safely completing the testimony, Kiryeo sat blankly on a park bench, waiting for progress. Suddenly, a woman with black hair approached and handed him a drink from a vending machine.
Ah, thank you.
Its Yulmu-cha. Seonwoo Yeon spoke with difficulty afterward.
I just checked, and all the surveillance cameras around here were not working. So, for now, we plan to track the items Kiryeo-ssi mentioned as the priority.
You were able to find some items.
Of course.
She briefly glanced at the pile of animal corpses scattered in the park.
By the way, youve been through a lot. An attack in broad daylight.
Hmm.
You said he was someone who used the same stealth technique as the captured invisible man, right?
Kim Kiryeo bit the end of the paper cup, then began to explain further. Why the awakened individual targeted him, what kind of skills they used, and even detailed eyewitness accounts of the appearance of the assailant.
Hmm, a telekinesis awakened person with cutting skills
Listening quietly to the story, Seonwoo Yeon paused for a moment.
What about the awakening level of the suspect?
Im not sure.
Compared to me, is the suspect higher or lower in level?
If were comparing like that, then higher. Maybe around Yoonseungs level.
The B-Class hunters expression hardens.
Then, how did Kiryeo-ssi get away safely?
Its inevitable that somewhat impolite remarks or concerns may be directed towards the victim. After all, didnt he just testify that he was threatened with murder by the mysteriously awakened person?
I dont know what he misunderstood, but he got scared on his own and didnt come to me.
In response, Kiryeo honestly admitted that he didnt know much about the situation either.
Seonwoo Yeon-ssi, do I look a little scary?
Yes?
Kiryeo suddenly became curious and asked a short question. Then Seonwoo Yeon looked intently at F-Classs face and shook her head.
No. Well, not really.
Looking up from below, he might resemble a murderer with that look, but theres no need to openly say it.
This person is not just scary because of his face
Seonwoo Yeon sipped barley tea and fell into deep thought.
By the way, she never knew that Hunter Kim Kiryeo was the one who caught the thief at the shopping center. She had always thought it was Ahn Yoonseungs achievement until now.
His behavior is scary.
A new human trafficker, a rookie hunt, invisible man. Hes already encountered numerous crimes so far. At this moment, Seonwoo Yeon realized that somehow that man was frequently involved in incidents and accidents.
What drink is this? Its delicious.
Its yumul-cha from the vending machine over there.
And strangely, the criminals who crossed paths with Kim Kiryeo were all not on good terms with words.
Its suspicious.
From the beginning, todays events didnt make sense. He hasnt done anything, and suddenly an A-Class awakener fled?
Then please contact me when the culprit is caught.
Kim Kiryeo quickly got up from the bench. While greeting him, Seonwoo Yeon couldnt shake off the uneasy feeling that lingered in her mind.

[Crow Flock Appears in Urban Skies Is the Climate Crisis Approaching]
Amid the TV news noise, a dull knocking sound interjected. The man lying on the sofa gestured impatiently, and his subordinate standing in the corner opened the warehouse door instead.
Are you okay?
The scene continued with the appearance of another person. It seems to be raining outside, and this person, wearing a white raincoat, had a face that was somehow ambiguous in gender.
Hey, what did you call me for
Despite the cautious greetings, the response was nothing but swearing from Pyo Nagil.
Hey, you f*cking b*stard! Do you really not know why I called you? Because of that trash skill stone you guys got, I!
Ugh! Calm down, Hyung-nim.
The person wearing a raincoat spoke to the young boss of the organization.
We didnt expect this situation either. There has never been a case worldwide where invisibility could be detected with the naked eye, and who could have predicted it would happen today?
Ha!
Besides, the skill stone was something I gave away for free
Why are you so upset when you didnt even pay any money?
When the awakened person in the raincoat said this, Pyo Nagil frowned.
Hey, thats enough. Ill let go of Esther, so you should know that.
Yes?
I just got some new information. Its about the guy who caught the invisible person earlier. Turns out, he already had deep connections with the Magic Tower.
Tuk, tuk.
Pyo Nagil roughly pointed to a table nearby. There were a few documents therea contract between the Korean Magic Tower and an external appraiser. Additionally, there were some on-site photos of a certain A-Class Red Gate.
Whats the problem with this?
Hmm?
Youve also verified it through our confirmation, havent you? The Night Walker is a skill that can ambush even S-Class.
I know that.
The hunter who detected the stealth is an extremely rare case. Just take him down first.
If it bothers you that much, why not start by killing Kim Kiryeo?
The raincoat person asks in a light tone. Pyo Nagils eyes trembled slightly.
I cant.
Yes?
That punk, hes a hunter like Esther.
When the opponent stood still, Pyo Nagil scratched his neck as if expressing irritation.
Even the grade can be the same! I already checked it yesterday!
Oh, is he someone disguising their awakening level like me? You should tell me.
And during the conversation, the identity of the person wearing the white raincoat was gradually revealed.
But this puts me in a bit of trouble. You assassinate S-Class, and the Rakshasa Temple supports you with items and money in this process. Thats our deal.
This person is none other than a believer in a religious group called Rakshasa Temple. However, Pyo Nagil didnt seem to approve of this and criticized the other person while sticking out his tongue.
So you should have prepared the skill stones properly from the beginning. You pseudo punk.
Pseudo
The church member hears this and laughs softly.
Not being able to kill an F-Class hunter and running away with your tail between your legsthats not a mistake, is it?
What did you say?
Weve already provided enough support. You were the one who claimed that with the stealth skill alone, you could 100% kill someone like Esther
Bang!
Pyo Nagil stood up from his seat. The church member with a neutral appearance glanced briefly at the leader of such a criminal organization.
Even if you cut me into pieces, nothing will change.
Hey.
If you continue to not keep your promises, we will be in trouble. No matter how much my heart sympathizes with the situation
He feels like he wants to cut this unpleasant cult in half right away. However, Pyo Nagil couldnt bear to take action.
We dont have unlimited funds either. If you dont kill the S-Class for us, theres no reason for us to provide any more support.
Haa.
Moreover, youve already received a lot in return. Do you think you can just wipe your mouth and move on like this?
The non-registered meeting. And the Rakshasa Temple in front of him.
This criminal organization and the cult-like religious group have close connections. In particular, the Rakshasa Temple was in a situation where it was controlling criminals based on the enormous financial power it extorted from believers.
Why are you so obsessed with assassination?
These suspicious cults have always been obsessed with one thing.
Anyway, it seems difficult for Esther, right? Then another S-Class is fine, so lets solve it quickly.
Are you saying everyone is okay?
Yes, anyone will do. Anyway, Im having a hard time these days because Im being scolded.
S-Class murder. He really doesnt know what the cults think.
Raksha-nim is watching Jun-tae. So, if you act with faith, you will inevitably go through this trial
Pyo Nagil pretended not to hear any nonsense.
Please focus a bit more. Im giving you the last chance. If you dont succeed by the end of this month, the leader might truly cut off support.
However, the request from the Rakshasa Temple couldnt be completely ignored.
It was hard to easily give up the substantial funds that the cultists were providing. In the end, it was once again about money. The issue was money.
Oh, and I have some helpful news
What is it?
Perhaps slowly bringing the conversation to an end, the church member wears the hat on his raincoat.
Jung Haseong is returning to Seoul.
Boom! A little thunder rumbled outside.
***
Who comes to mind when you think of the word hero?
Today, 9 out of 10 people give the same answer.
Hunter Jung Haseong!
Of course, its Hunter Jung Haseong.
Koreas first S-Class.
Highest gate clearing record of all time.
Specialized in the fire attribute, the strongest in the field.
These numerous titles refer to only one person.
Is there anyone in the world who doesnt know Jung Haseong?
He was the hope of this generation.
[Single-handedly destroying the White Tower, Jung Haseongs remarkable achievement Sweeping through 3 dungeons, including A-rank]
As they may know, during the Dungeon Shock, the world was truly like hell. Countless monsters immune to human weapons poured in, and many people died.
At the same time, people with awakening abilities appeared one by one all over the country, but it was not enough to restore the previous peace.
If it werent for Hunter Jung Haseong, wouldnt the map of Korea have changed by now?
However, one day, a massive force that would overturn all the existing circumstances swept through this peninsula.
The gigantic sea monster Kraken appeared in front of Busan. The Dungeon Break at that time became the catalyst, leading to the emergence of Koreas first S-Class Hunter.
Kyaaah! Hunter Jung Haseong!
Please look here!
Oh, we made eye contact. Eye.
In the current generation, its rare to find someone who doesnt know the video of the Kraken hunt from six years ago. At that time, when the city of Busan was on the brink of collapse, an S-rank Hunter appeared like a comet among the frightened citizens and spectacularly burned the monstrous Kraken.
Seeing it in person gives me goosebumps!
The awakening level is great.
Hes handsome!
After that, Korea was able to stabilize society at a rapid pace thanks to Jung Haseongs monstrous performance.
An undisputed hero of the nation, without any room for counterarguments.
.
And since such a hero has returned to the capital as of today, it is natural that interest is focused.
I tried to keep it as quiet as possible, but it seems like the information leaked from somewhere. I apologize, Jung Haseong-ssi.
Its all right.
Jung Haseong glanced at the gathered crowd for a moment. It had been a relentless journey, traveling across various regions without a pause, dealing with urgent Gates at every turn
Waaaaaa!
Please say hellooo!
Hello!
Without showing any signs of fatigue, he offered a polite greeting to the citizens. He was managing his image as always.
Has there been anything wrong here so far?
Yes. Well, there were some minor incidents, but with Esthers help, we managed somehow.
Inside the association building, Jung Haseong checked his appearance in front of the elevator.
Ah.
And a moment later, as if he had suddenly remembered, he asked the employee a question.
Now that I think about it, that F-class thing?
Yes?
Before heading to the provinces, I reported a hunter for grade forgery. I was wondering if there were any results.
Drrrrk Ting!
Oh, that re-examination. Actually
The elevator arrives. However, Jung Haseong stops in his spot and turns around in response to the employees answer.
What did you say? Is the verdict not guilty?
It was the latest news about Hunter Kim Kiryeo that he had heard about for the first time in a long time.
