An S-class hunter who wants to rest

Episode 6: I'm Not Awakened (1)

Episode 6: I am not yet awakened (1)

The area around the gate where I arrived after hearing the location was a complete mess.

Although a barricade had been set up, the families of those caught in the crossfire were camped out in front of it, wailing.

YOU

“Well, I don’t think it’ll be easy to get in in this condition.”

Even when I tried to approach the gate, it was not easy because people surrounded it tightly.

YOU

“Well, Team Leader, it doesn’t seem like it’ll be easy to get to the gate.”

[Oh, I already told the dispatched hunters.]

As if what he said was true, one of the hunters near the entrance noticed me and approached me.

"Are you Dan-ah? I've been waiting for you. Come this way."

He guided me as he had been instructed from above, but I felt like I was not very good at it.

Since he was known as a non-awakened player, it was natural to suspect that there was some kind of trick in the tutorial for the Tower of Babel.

YOU

"Thank you."

Dan-ah, who had expressed her gratitude for the guidance, walked leisurely towards the gate.

Dan-ah, who had come out of her sleep in a hurry, was wearing comfortable clothes and walking slowly, so it looked like she had gone out for a night walk.

Is that kid going through the gate now? He looks like he's only a high school student? Isn't that kid, that kid? The concert hall gate!

Some recognized me, others didn't. But a common thread in their hearts was a burning suspicion.

Despite the murmuring, Dan-ah maintained a leisurely pace and entered the gate.

시스템

- Entered the gate.

시스템

- Check the object. This is Dan-ah (unawakened).

As soon as I entered the gate, the salty smell of the sea filled my nose.

The red sea beneath the ominous crimson sky was visually stunning, and the high humidity made my whole body feel sticky.

Judging by the salty smell of the sea mixed with the smell of human blood, it seemed that quite a few people had already been eaten.

As an S-class hunter, I was confident that my brother would still be safe.

However, as it was an immeasurable gate, it seemed like it was not a simple monster, but a race with intelligence.

YOU

“We have to move quickly...”

Looking around the gate, it seemed quite wide, and the amount of water seemed to be increasing at a rapid rate.

YOU

“[Pieces of darkness, become my hands and feet.]”

As soon as Dan-ah finished her chant, her shadow began to tremble and spread out, and countless black soldiers appeared around Dan-ah.

First, the most useful power I ever received from the devil in my life.

An immortal shadow army that doesn't eat, doesn't rest, doesn't get tired, and doesn't die.

Because he was an opponent that was absolutely not easy for ordinary humans to deal with, I used the Shadow Legion to take countless human lives.

Who would have thought that such a terrifying ability would be used to save humanity this time?

YOU

"Find and protect every human being in this space. Move as quickly as possible. Notify me as soon as you find my brother."

The shadows were momentarily confused by the command, which was the exact opposite of what they had always received, but they quickly scattered in all directions.

With what we just saw, it was safe to say that the rescue mission had been resolved. Since they were summoned to kill humans, they possessed a natural talent for locating them.

YOU

“Then I have to catch the boss, so should I call in some reinforcements?”

First life, my soulmate.

He was the only person I could trust, and the only foolish thing in my life.

I tried to summon him in my second life, but I couldn't because I didn't have the magic power, and in my current life, there wasn't enough space to summon him.

But with a gate of this size, it should be possible to summon it without affecting the outside world.

YOU

“[Lord of heaven and earth, my friend with whom I have made a covenant of souls. Come to me, Patricia.]”

The moment the order was completed, Dan-ah breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the magic circle appear above her head. It had been so long since she'd called him, she wasn't confident he'd respond.

The size of the golden dragon that appeared with a huge roar was enormous.

He looked around and immediately changed his appearance after seeing a small human figure just below him.

Her bright blond hair, as if bathed in sunlight, swayed in the wind, and her ruby-red eyes were filled with tears.

He held Dan-ah in his arms with his long arms and sobbed silently.

YOU

“...I understand you're pleased to meet me, but I need to clear this gate first. Could you please step aside for now?”

Unlike Patricia, Dan-ah was quite calm. It was a completely different reaction from what she'd said before, that it was her only regret.

Dan-ah felt it herself, so she was confused. Why was it like that?

“...Gate clearance?”

YOU

“I’m going to kill the strongest monster here.”

“It’s simple.”

Patricia, who said that, still holding her in her arms, pointed her finger towards the sea and cast an attack spell.

It was a very simple spell for him, but it was enough to kill the boss monster.

I accurately targeted the boss hiding in the sea and cleared the Gator with great ease.

시스템

- The gate has been cleared.

시스템

- Unawakened player who hunts the boss alone! One-shot, one-kill! Additional rewards will be given!

시스템

As an additional reward, you'll be granted the title "Destroyer of the Sea." Water-dwelling monsters will become mentally and physically weak in your presence!

...Weak mind and body? It's like a boss monster, isn't it?

Maybe because we were bound by soul, it was Patricia who killed the boss, but it was applied as if I handled it alone.

Are soul contracts and taming on the same level?

“Is it done now?

She wrapped her arms around his waist again with the one she had used the magic on, and patted his back as he held her tighter.

Just as he was my only foolishness, I was also his only existence.
