I Became A Part Time Employee For Gods Chapter 77
#77. Hunter Ranking No. 1 VS Yu Dam-deok (1)
“This is crazy…”
Cheon Jung-ak muttered a low curse.
So did his garrison men behind him.
“What is that…?”
“Are you human…?”
It took only about 20 minutes to change the Namsan area into its own jurisdiction, officially report it to city hall, and receive approval for gate suppression.
The approval came almost immediately, but the sight that unfolded before their eyes was nothing short of hellfire.
Grumble!
“Kyahahaha! oh my god! I think I’ve already become an archmage? right? right?”
A blonde woman was spewing fire like crazy.
Namsan Gate B-44.
It was a medium-sized gate, so it would have been impossible to warm up in the past, but things were different now.
‘The guys crawling out of there are class A teratomas!’
Wow.
Cheonjungak ground his teeth.
Who on earth is that woman who instantly burns down those whose level of difficulty is comparable to that of A-level dungeons?
“Wow…”
“Are you a foreign hunter…?”
“It looks very exotic…”
All the guards looked at Adele Sharon’s fire show with their mouths open.
The firepower was so strong that it seemed similar to a battalion armed with heavy weapons pouring out firepower at the same time.
“You bastards! Did you see it?! You’re an unauthorized intruder! “Go get it!!”
“Yes yep!”
The garrison members approached Cheon Jung-ak’s shouts, but had no choice but to retreat back to the road.
“I can’t get any closer!”
“If you go in blindly, you will burn to death!”
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The entire surrounding area is filled with red-hot flames.
Fire demon.
Cheon Jung-ak saw the appearance of a devil in the flames.
‘That’s crazy! Did that woman plan to burn the symbol of Seoul?
Cheon Jung-ak took a step forward with a burning sense of justice.
“Hey you! Do you know what you are doing now?! Foreigners are not allowed to conquer the gate alone! “You want to go to jail?!”
Although he was shouting loudly, Adele Sharon wasn’t listening at all.
“Kyahahaha! I’m so happy! This is the power of the 6th circle! I’m in the 6th circle!! Kyahaha!”
Adele Sharon achieved the 6th circle in Niflheim. This was thanks to his natural magical talent and the excellent guidance of the ice dwarves.
Since it was two levels higher than Damdeok’s 4th circle, she was already immersed in ecstasy as if she were a magical god.
“That’s crazy…! “You’re not listening at all!”
It was a very crappy situation where I couldn’t get close and I couldn’t do anything to stop him.
“Fuck you! “Call the police!”
In the end, Cheon Jung-ak lost his temper and had to turn around.
“What should I report…?”
“You bastard! Do I have to tell you all those things?! “He’s an arsonist who illegally occupied the gate and set fire to cultural assets!!”
What a historic place Namsan is in Seoul!
As Cheon Jung-ak fumed and got angry, the guard picked up the phone.
It was then.
“Hey, you can’t do that.”
Squeak.
In an instant, the guard’s phone was split in half.
The gaze of the frozen members and Cheon Jung-ak slowly moved towards the man holding the sword.
It was a familiar face.
Baekgureum, a boy with pure white cloud hair, smiled and drew his sword.
“Adele is an annoying guy, but it’s difficult to report it.”
Cheonjungak approached with surprised eyes.
“You… why are you here?”
“me? “Is that because… the group is here?”
When Baekgureum shrugged his shoulders and said, Cheonjungak’s face crumpled.
Wait a minute, if it’s that bastard’s group….
“Is that bastard Yu Dam-deok here too?!”
slap! Cheonjungak’s head turned sharply.
It was difficult to maintain visibility as flames were rising everywhere.
“Fuck you! “I can’t even see that crazy woman anymore.”
“Well, anyway, don’t report it. “After Adele is done playing, I’ll clean up after myself.”
White Cloud said, twirling his sword.
Cheonjungak’s face became even more viciously distorted.
“play? Play? The reason these bastards cross the line is because of their oiliness! Is that a game now?! Do you think the citizens will remain silent if Namsan burns down?! It would be better if Yu Damdeok was there too! “I’ll let you go from being a humble hero to being a depraved arsonist!”
Cheon Jung-ak roughly took out the phone.
I planned to tell all of this to a reporter I knew. Of course, with a little popping added.
Baekgureum’s eyes suddenly turned cold.
“brother. “If you don’t put it down right away…”
Cheon Jung-ak put down the phone before he could finish his sentence.
‘Fuck you. ‘The look in your eyes is scary.’
gulp. Dry saliva passed over me.
The atmosphere was softer than before, so I forgot about it, but Baekgureum was a crazy guy who would do anything when he got angry.
Regardless of whether he was Iris’s successor or not, he was just an old man who would do whatever he wanted, so even if he provoked him for no reason, he would only be harmed.
“…white clouds. No matter what you do, you can’t stop Namsan from burning. “It will be reported on the news anyway, and then Yu Dam-deok’s image will be over.”
Still, Cheonjungak said what he had to say until the end. Although it has become much calmer.
Baekgureum laughed playfully again.
“Giggle. What is fire? are you okay. “It will go out soon.”
What are you talking about?
In my experience, such a fire cannot be easily extinguished even with ten special fire helicopters.
‘Once you turn it off, it will all burn out.’
As Cheonjungak was snoring, someone muttered from the center of the fire.
“I’ve confirmed my skills sufficiently, so that’s it.”
“Ah~ already? “It’s a shame.”
“It’s a shame. “All the gate monsters are already dead.”
The moment Cheon Jung-ak recognized the man’s voice and frowned, he said,
“Key-ing!” Damn it!
The overflowing flames froze in an instant.
“omg.”
Damn it! Awesome!
Pure white ice covered the raging flames.
Even the small embers fluttering in the air were all covered in ice, creating an ice sculpture reminiscent of a giant monster.
“….”
Cheon Jung-ak could not move.
The sharp blade of ice stopped in front of Cheonjungak’s eyes.
Damdeok, who was on the ice, saw Cheonjungak and laughed.
“what. “Is it you again?”
* * *
Iris Main Building.
Cheongunak, who was looking at the winding waters of the Han River, gently closed his eyes.
“So what do you want to say?”
Cheongunak did not look back.
Therefore, Cheon Jung-ak was diligently pouring out a briefing on the situation behind his back.
The blonde woman who suddenly set Namsan’s medium-sized gate on fire by herself, and Yu Dam-deok’s skills that covered the enormous flames with ice. And the story of Baekgureum, who is part of Iris and follows Damdeok around, was not left out.
Cheongunak’s brow furrowed slightly.
“Baekgureum, that kid is one of the few talented people in Iris. “I told you to leave her alone because just being on our side helps us gain influence.”
Cheonjungak gritted his teeth at those words.
So what am I?
You always say that only other people’s children are precious, but what the hell are you saying about me, your son?
The words rose up in my throat… but I had to swallow them.
‘There’s no way my father would listen if I said something like that. In that case, you should run!’
Instead, Cheon Jung-ak decided to touch on an issue that his father is concerned about these days.
“father. That guy, Yu Dam-deok… I think he’s turning into a monster. “No, I’m sure!”
As expected, Cheongunak’s shoulders flinched.
He slowly turned back and looked at his son.
“Just now… did you say it turned into a monster?”
Cheon Jung-ak nodded with the most serious look in his eyes.
Transformation into a monster.
A strange phenomenon that has been occurring recently, where normal humans gain the abilities of monsters.
In the past, it appeared rarely and was not much of an issue, but recently, as the difficulty of gates has surpassed that of dungeons, the number of hunters who are rapidly becoming monsters has been increasing.
‘Such children may be strong at first, but later their ego collapses and they become idiots who cannot even tell whether they are humans or monsters.’
Cheon Jung-ak smiled in remorse.
For a moment, I saw my father Cheongunak’s eyes shaking.
“Think about it. father. Damdeok Yoo, that kid was untalented. “The guy who was begging until middle school…!”
“stop. “Are you still bringing up your jealousy from your snobbery days?”
Cheon Jung-ak, who had been chattering excitedly, hardened his expression.
He spoke again with his lips tightly pursed.
“…Father, do you really not know? Not only is Yoo Dam-deok the only one who awakened after his growth plates closed, but his growth speed is so absurd. “They say it’s 7 stars, but it’s often said that Korea’s first 9-star hunter will emerge.”
That was correct.
Damdeok, who was untalented, won the unprecedented title of 6-star hunter from the beginning. Moreover, not long ago, he was already ranked as a 7-star hunter by conquering dangerous dungeons and gates all over the world.
It’s only been a few months since I woke up.
It was difficult to find a precedent like this in hunter history.
From the 8th star, you couldn’t advance to the next level because there was a condition of having at least 10 years of experience.
There were quite a few people in the public who claimed that Damdeok had already reached the level of a 9-star hunter.
“Uhm…”
Cheongunak groaned.
He was the head of Iris, one of the world’s top 10 guilds, and bore much of the responsibility for the defense of the Republic of Korea.
Normally, I would have ignored my son’s argument and moved on, but the story about monsterization was never a matter to be taken lightly.
‘The damage was severe two days ago when a 5-star hunter was transformed into a monster…’
An incident in which a 5-star hunter whose ego collapsed due to his transformation into a monster committed a massacre of civilians in the middle of the city.
It was a terrible incident that left a total of 326 casualties and estimated damage amounting to hundreds of billions of dollars.
‘It was truly a disaster.’
An unprecedented situation in history in which all capital defense personnel were mobilized to capture humans, not monsters.
The incident that shook not only Korea but also international public opinion happened just two days ago.
‘After all, he belongs to our guild…’
After the suppression, the 5-star hunter’s affiliation was revealed to be Iris.
As a result, the stress of Heavenly Force was at its peak as they were reprimanded for failing to respond early and received harsh attention from the public.
But to turn into a monster again at this time?
It was natural for him to feel very uncomfortable.
Moreover, this time, it was a 7-star hunter, not a 5-star one….
“Even a 5-star hunter was difficult to suppress…”
Cheongunak frowned heavily and pointed at his forehead.
A trace of consideration was visible between the deeply furrowed eyebrows.
Cheongunak, who had been pressing his forehead for a long time, looked at his son.
“…If, as you say, Damdeok, that child is truly in the process of becoming a monster, wouldn’t it be better to first detain him at the Hunter Correctional Center?”
“I’m sure, so I have to detain him right away!”
The Hunter Correctional Center was primarily a place to reform and rehabilitate hunters who had become criminals, but it was also in charge of the treatment of hunters who had recently become monsters.
For example, there was a case where a two-star hunter who was in the process of becoming a monster was detained at the Hunter Correctional Center after being reported by his colleagues, thereby preventing damage in advance.
‘It would be better to nip dangerous time bombs in the bud in advance.’
We couldn’t make another mistake at a time when we are receiving fierce criticism from public opinion.
After thinking about it, Cheongunak pressed the intercom on his desk.
Beep-!
“Director Lee. Make an appointment to meet with Corrections Director Hunter this evening. “If possible, I would like Inspector General Hunter to be there as well.”
The corners of Cheon Jung-ak’s mouth turned up in a mean manner as he watched the scene.
“You thought well. father. “Then shall I arrest you as soon as the protection order is issued?”
“That’s nonsense. “How can you arrest Yoo Dam-deok with your skills?”
Cheongunak glanced at the computer screen with today’s schedule displayed.
“The right person has decided to come along, so come with us.”
Cheonjungak tilted his head.
“If it’s the right person…?”
It was then.
smart! With a knock on the door, Iris’ Chief of Staff Han Mi-young came in.
“President. It is said that Mr. Leo Lux has arrived in the lobby. Should I ask you to come up?”
“Okay, you arrived on time. “Tell them to come up quickly.”
As soon as the secretary left, Cheon Jung-ak’s eyes widened.
“If your father is Leo Lux…?”
His fists were shaking slightly with a strange sense of joy and excitement.
Cheongunak slowly leaned back on the chair and said.
“You too, take this opportunity to take a close look. “Leo Lux… no, what a monster the world’s number one ranked hunter is.”
