53.

“Ah.”

It’s fucked.

I say it again, I’m fucked.

Lee Seong-han looked at Kang Seo-jin with a frightened face.

Because of the stubborn arm that was strangling her neck, half of her face was cut off. Kang Seo-jin’s head was caught. She looked at Lee Seong-han. It was a round gaze.

“Please save me.”

A stiff, emotionless tone. It’s going to be tense. It’s obvious.

“Don’t be quiet! This little bastard!”

Kwaaak

Geum Shin-mi pressed the head of Kang Seo-jin, who was dripping with sweat. Her excitement was evident.

There were hundreds of guns aimed at me, and looking back, I thought that I would be in the same situation.

As an awakened person, he used his evil force, which would crush a car, to catch a child.

“Ugh!”

Kang Seo-jin groaned.

There was no change in the way he controlled his strength, but a sobbing sound was heard.

“Fuck.”

The alley was filled with police and military personnel. It was the Awakening Special Response Team. A young woman who looked like a commander climbed into an armored vehicle.

He was a negotiation expert like you see in movies. He held up a megaphone and shouted.

– Hostage takers, listen up! I represent the government, police, and military of the Republic of Korea. Immediately cease all threats to civilians and surrender!

The sun is gradually setting. Streetlights come on, and shadows fall on people’s faces.

Lee Seong-han looked at the hostage situation.

There was a store behind the building. It was a five-story building, and the interior had a shabby, worn-out feel to it, with all the furniture in ruins.

It would be nice if I could just turn around and enter there.

“NO! No Surrender! Guarantee the Human Rights of the Awakened! Guarantee it! ”

That woman is really bad. She’s a terrible person. The political world will criticize her like a dog eating meat.

-Hoohoo… … I’m telling the Awakened one who is currently taking hostage! Drop your weapons and surrender! If you wish, I will negotiate.

“Tongue, negotiation?”

-okay.

While the negotiation expert is trying to persuade with words.

Knock knock knock.

The special forces took positions one by one. Lee Seong-han glared at them.

[It is said to be a ‘super reconnaissance’ domestically produced large-caliber equipment.]

‘Do you think you can catch the awakened ones just by looking at them? You crazy bastards.’

It is distributed to the front lines – it is Awakened equipment.

Not just one, but many. I’m going to spend some money.

Originally, the Great Awakening equipment was supposed to be in the back room storage.

There were times when it cost thousands of won per foot, let alone millions.

“If there is a gap, Geumshinmi will be shot and become a honeycomb pizza.”

The problem was that he was taking Kang Seo-jin to the afterlife as his companion.

As if they were already aware of the river problem, several vehicles were seen in the alley.

“Why is Miss there?”

“Yes, I have given you the press release. We are currently deploying additional personnel. Understood. ”

Lee Seong-han narrowed his eyes.

If you add anything to this state, you won’t be able to even pull out the bones.

‘Should I just not ask for it?’

To be honest, I tried hard. I beat up criminals and stole all the meat. Even if someone attacked me now, I was so exhausted that I wouldn’t be able to resist.

[I advise you to retreat for now as ‘regeneration’ consumes a lot of energy.]

[I feel like I’m a ‘fully competent hunter’.]

Look, I told you my thoughts were not wrong. Lee Seong-han got up from his seat. His entire body was a mess. Why······would it be him who took the hostage? That guy must have had his life ruined.

“First, contact the Major… … .”

He put his hands crumpled in his pockets.

I don’t have a cell phone.

I definitely took care of it earlier. It can’t be wrong. Really? Really this time too?!

I turned my gaze towards Gangseojin. I heard a familiar bell ringing.

“Can I take your call?”

“Phone?”

Kang Seo-jin coughed. She seems to be nervous too. Judging from the way she is sweating profusely.

Galaxy Group’s S series.

It’s a very old model.

It was already discontinued, so it was like looking for a star to get it.

Hit me-

“… … Hey, he told me to pick up the phone.”

“What is it?”

Geum Shin-mi held the phone for a moment. Her hands were so big that the phone felt like a small chocolate bar. After answering a few questions, Geum Shin-mi’s face quickly hardened.

He found out that the person he had touched was the successor to Kangcheon.

***

The sun is setting.

Now the streetlights are gradually coming on, amplifying the eerieness of the street.

The media has been quiet due to reporting guidelines, but various

On SNS and the Internet, another uproar broke out due to the hostage situation of the awakened.

Me, what… I don’t have any particular thoughts. I just want to go to my room and sleep.

I spent the whole day helping my sisters, buying food, and taking practical exams.

This is not something a human should do.

I was completely exhausted. As soon as I laid down in bed, I felt like I would sleep for a few days.

“… …Fuck.”

I sat down on a nearby bench. I didn’t mind wearing cheap training clothes.

Jiiing-

The license plate rang.

This is a request from the Hunter Association.

I’m checking the client this time. It has the seal of the government of the Republic of Korea on it. It may be unusual, but I know it.

[Request for Order]

-During a hostage crisis. Securing the hostage and subduing the threat.

I put my hand on my forehead. Why do these coincidences keep happening to me? I feel like someone is controlling my fate.

The government also actively utilized the request system, but the government’s requests had a compulsory nature.

My current status is military.

And soldiers must always be willing to sacrifice themselves for their country and people.

When I thought about how the Military Manpower Administration was just throwing in people who were incompetent and reaping the benefits, and then turning a blind eye to them after that, I thought it was a pitiful excuse.

‘I’ll take care of that.’

It feels like bad luck has been piled on.

A compulsory request is sent to all hunters within the radius. In other words, it means that it ends if you have the qualification of a ‘hunter’…

As the quantity increases, the quality tends to decline. I personally felt the chill of a midsummer night.

“Hey, do you want to go on a date with me? I have a lot of money.”

“Sorry, I’m on official duty.”

“Huh? If I rescue you, will you go on a date with me?”

“No. I have to go home too.”

“Hey~ Don’t be like that. Let’s go play with my sister. My sisters are all kind and good people. Shall we go to a bar together and have a drink?”

Women with bulging bellies that looked like 150kg, looking exactly like blobfish coming out of water, were flirting next to me. Oh my, that’s scary.

Do I look like an easy guy? When there was no response, I took it as a positive response and approached him more and more.

[Screams, ‘Auto-battle’ is so scary!]

[They say that if you just put your hand on someone’s chest, you can stop their heart.]

… … I don’t really want to touch it. What if I say you tempted me first?

“Sigh.”

I can’t help but sigh.

Not an awakened person.

Civilian awakeners. In other words, they were freelance hunters. These are ordinary people who became hunters. Unfortunately, the number of hunters is decreasing day by day.

Because the quality naturally declines, it is inevitable that people will stick together.

“Sorry, someone is waiting.”

As I pushed away, the woman’s face turned red and blue. Hey, if you’re going to hit me, then hit me.

I looked at the woman.

“This, this bastard Namchang, if his face is half and half, that’s it!”

And he clenched his fist.

Well, I’ll let it slide. The moment you cross the line, I become a gangster too.

“Stop.”

Tak────

“Un, unnyeon… … Uh… Uh oh.”

“Aren’t you ashamed as a hunter?”

Kwuuk.

“Eeeek!”

Someone grabbed the woman’s arm and twisted it violently. Then, they kicked her in the shin. The woman lost her balance and fell.

A paper tearing sound was heard from the broken arm.

The arm was twisted approximately 180 degrees and was stuck in the opposite direction. Blood poured out of the twisted arm. The woman lay on the asphalt road screaming.

“ga… …Kang Mi-young!!”

“We didn’t do anything!!”

The gang’s eyes opened wide.

One, two, he ran away like a person he had never seen before. The problem is that there are police officers here.

“Arrest immediately as a criminal caught in the act!”

“Eww!”

Because of that, those idiots couldn’t go more than a few steps before they were taken away by the police.

Yes, thank you for helping me out like this. Thank you for your action.

“Your Majesty, are you okay?”

“Mr. Seonghan!”

Kang Mi-young and Kang Jin-young ran at the same time.

I was in complete despair. My sister, with reddened eyes, felt my body and face. If someone saw me, they would think we were lovers who hadn’t seen each other in months.

Yeah, I figured that was because I hadn’t touched it all day.

The sisters touched every nook and cranny as if they were letting out all the anger they had been feeling for so long.

This is to check if there is a wound.

That’s a good thing.

“… … I want you to stop touching my stomach.”

The hand gesture became increasingly rough, so I stopped my sister.

The sisters stared at each other like Pat and Matt, then returned to their original state. Then they snickered and showed their teeth. They weren’t smiling at me.

“… … .”

It was in the direction of Kang Seo-jin. Well, judging from her face, she seemed happy to see me. But still, she’s my younger sibling. I know that feeling too.

“Mr. Seonghan, come here.”

“Huh. Yes. Why are you like that?”

“Since my sister said she’ll take care of it. I’ll take you home. Hehe. ”

Kang Jin-young dragged me into a dark alley.

…

…

…

Tiring-

While Kang Jin-young was killing time by talking to Lee Seong-han, Kang Mi-young made a phone call. Of course, it was Kang Seo-jin.

-hello?

Kang Seo-jin’s voice flowed out.

The police officers’ heads were covered in cold sweat, which was visible to the naked eye. It was rare for anyone to pay attention, as if they could hear voices from that direction.

People who listen to hear the sound even more so.

“Kang Seo-jin. We’ll take care of Lee Seong-han. I don’t know what you planned, but you must have done something vicious and ‘Kang Cheon’-like. ”

-What do you want?

“I know it’s very different from what you planned. I was surprised that you were so stupid. Since I’m a lady, I’ll make you an offer. An offer you can’t refuse. You’ll like it. ”

-!

“If you admit defeat, I will give you Lee Seong-han’s contact information.”

-…….next.

“An interview with the opposite sex. In other words, I will arrange a date once a week. No sexual contact. I will personally allow you to hold hands. ”

-It’s still there. Give me more.

“Oh, just going?”

-Sister. Think about it.

“I’m not your sister. We’re strangers. And this is a very business deal.”

– Oppa would never abandon me. He said he would come to save me! He pulled me out of the cold Han River when I was about to jump. He saved my life! Why would he abandon me?!

“What are you going to do if we take you? You’re stupid. Is that an option that’s not allowed?”

There was silence for a moment.

-ah.

“Choose. Either get a small but certain happiness or die. You’ll be rescued anyway. But you won’t be able to see a reasonable face for the rest of your life. No. You’ll cry while watching him next to me on the news. ”

-…shut up.

“Or, you were quietly working on paperwork next to Kang Jin-young, and then your eyes met… … Ah, this is unpleasant to me. Judging from Kang Jin-young’s appearance, he looks like a sexual criminal with strong sexual desire. Huh? A bitch who would tie you up to a bed with a twisted wall and rape you. ”

-shut up.

“If love blossoms between us and we have a child, and if we can create a center where we can understand each other, we can actually meet. A child who inherits only the strengths of me and my partner─”

I couldn’t finish my sentence.

-Aaaa!!! Let go of me! Oppa, Oppaaa!! Save me! This woman is trying to get me and Oppa off of me!

A commotion is heard in the distance.

There was silence for a few seconds.

Kang Seo-jin opened her mouth again.

-… … Where are you?

“What are you talking about?”

-Brother. I can’t see it anywhere. Where did you steal it?! Did you steal it?!

“What are you talking about? You should sit here in India… … .”

Kang Mi-young dropped her cell phone. The screen didn’t break, but some cracks appeared, possibly due to the impact.

“Kang Seo-jin.”

-huh.

“I will change the conditions.”

Shit, that bitch betrayed me first.

“Strike the strong Jinyeong who wants to monopolize.”

-call.

widely.

Kang Mi-young waved her hand. A scream was heard from the scene.

“Pa,pal!!”

“Now. Catch him!”

After all, there are no eternal allies or enemies.
