“No, really, is this for one person? That’s a lot of them?”

“What are you talking about? The number of monsters is clearly at a level that I can subdue on my own?”

“Honestly, you didn’t monitor it, did you? It’s pouring out like crazy!”

“Don’t lie! If there’s no problem when you check, you know that you’ll be punished!”

As soon as I came out, I protested to Professor Marina.

No matter how you look at it, it wasn’t for one person.

Meanwhile, Professor Marina became serious and said that it couldn’t be true.

And then he started fiddling with the machinery in the corner.

To prove that he was not wrong.

A few minutes later.

Professor Marina came to me again.

Unlike before, he had a rather embarrassed expression.

“……Your input was incorrect.”

“You said there was no problem.”

“……”

“Hey.”

“That could be the case.”

The initial monster creation number input value was 10.000.

There were 10 of them.

However, Professor Marina said that she made a mistake in the settings and 10,000 was entered as 10,000.

The small difference between a period and a comma.

And that made a big difference.

In the end, the total number of goblins that came out of the dungeon I entered was 10,000.

It was a number I could never handle alone.

It was a number that was not certain to be easily won even if they rushed in.

‘If it’s going to be like this, let’s send Hyeji first.’

[Do you think it is right to use asymmetric power right from the start?]

Professor Marina, who had already finished setting up, pushed another student inside the gate.

Even unlike my time, he started monitoring right away.

There was no real dog.

‘Before I finish this piece, I’m going to burn down the professor’s research building.’

[Do you think you’ll come to your senses after just one? Japan was hit by two nuclear weapons.]

The moment I set a new goal, I saw Hyeji coming out from afar.

A fast killing speed, as expected from Hyeji.

I was trying to hear a story about how you handled it.

“Why on earth are you doing that!”

“…I just smashed it.”

Professor Marina was faster than me.

Before he knew it, he was running to Hyeji and pointing out something.

And Professor Marina’s voice, instead of decreasing, continued to grow louder.

After some bitter words.

Hyeji walked towards me weakly.

Without even wiping the gloominess from his face.

“Hey, Hyeji, what’s going on?”

“……This doesn’t suit me at all.”

Hyeji grumbled as if she was extremely displeased.

“What did that kid say?”

“Why don’t you just kill them all? I just killed all the monsters like usual.”

“Well done.”

Even though it has excessive violence, it is the attitude of a great hunter.

It is not a wisdom that a professor’s brat would dare to criticize.

“But why did that professor scold you?”

“They even destroyed the dungeon itself without leaving a trace.”

“……”

I think a little bit of criticism might be in order.

Preservation of the dungeon is surprisingly one of the most important factors.

Of course, in truly urgent cases, it is not entirely wrong to completely destroy everything, like Hyeji.

Because nothing is more precious than life.

However, if that is not the case, it is right to preserve it as much as possible.

Because there is a lot of information that can be obtained just from the dungeon itself.

For example, information about the ecology or environmental factors of monsters.

Such information is as important as the materials coming from the monster’s body.

So the rule is to not damage the dungeon as much as possible.

“In a broad sense, a hunter is also an assassin who kills mobs.”

“If you kill all the witnesses and the informants, it’s assassination.”

“…Wouldn’t the word annihilation be more appropriate?”

“Ah, I don’t know. The Academy is so crowded.”

Someone sat down next to the plump Hyeji.

When I turned my gaze, the main character was Jeong A-yeon.

Seeing that smug expression on his face made me want to punch him.

Hyeji’s feelings were not much different from mine, and she immediately started picking on Jeong A-yeon.

“Jeong Ah-yeon, why is your expression like that? Are you upset?”

“Ahem. Lady Hyeji, do you know how big the difference in rank is between you and me? Not just anyone can get the Silver rank.”

Hyeji’s eyes began to turn cold.

Anyone is about to get soaked right now.

“You piece of shit. Are you burning me again? I’m not in a good mood right now?”

“I’m sorry! Please forgive me! Please save me!”

Jeong Ah-yeon trembled and quickly banged her head against Hye-ji.

It seems that he realized that it would be dangerous to act any more harshly since he experienced it firsthand during the first semester midterm exam.

After all, people should live within their means.

Anyway, Jeong Ah-yeon’s ability is definitely good for targeting only monsters in dungeons.

At that moment, a question suddenly arose.

“Hey, Jeong A-yeon. You cleared it by just taking out your summons, right? ”

“Yes. Is there a problem?”

Jeong Ah-yeon was openly expressing her discomfort, perhaps because she felt that her achievements were being ignored.

But what I’m curious about is the other part.

“Where did the unmanned concept go?”

“……Be quiet.”

Suddenly, Jeong A-yeon avoided eye contact.

Jeong Ah-yeon has already lost her character.

I started to push Jeong Ah-yeon hard.

“Looking at the automatic hunting, it seems like the origin of the Miracle Sword is the same.”

“Don’t compare me to those idiots! Those bastards are fucking idiots who destroyed history themselves!!”

[You? Isn’t that suddenly a sensitive statement to China?]

‘It’s okay. It’s not the K platform.’

[Well… if that were the case, it would have been censored a long time ago.]

‘If you’re confident in illegal translation, try it. I’m sure the Chinese people will be just as kind.’

As we talked, I realized I missed you.

Those were the days when so many Chinese people shed tears in support of the independence of Uyghurs, Hong Kong, and Tibet.

While I was gently putting away the rising longing in one corner of my heart, Jeong A-yeon shot me a sharp look.

“In the first place, how could you possibly take out a gun in a fight with a martial arts goral!”

“Watch what you say. Remington and M60 are authentic martial arts.”

“Shut up!!!!!! How dare you discuss martial arts with a gun!”

“I will also admit that Gorani is an authentic martial arts master. Wanna bet?”

“Good.”

The bet was as follows:

If Jeong Ah-yeon wins, my nagging will be cut off.

On the other hand, if I win, I get a free pass to do whatever I want to Jeong Ah-yeon.

Peace, concerned about this, asked me urgently.

[You? If you lose, this piece will be a year-end piece!]

‘Why are you making such a fuss? Even if the percentage of nonsense I say is high, it won’t last all year long.’

[Your mouth is full of nonsense! Are you planning on ending the work without saying anything?]

‘It’s fuck.’

But there was no further refutation.

Because that’s true.

Before we knew it, all the students had experienced the dungeons and gates.

And then it was my turn again.

This time I thought it would be okay, so I brought a longsword and a dagger.

I entered the gate once again.

This time, the Minotaur, the beef bone soup I saw last time, was present.

So far so good, except for one minor issue.

The minor issue is that there are a few monsters out there.

‘Is this the only bitch who puts in shitty numbers?’

[You! They’re already rushing in!]

The flying eagles are coming down on me.

I dodged with minimal movement and slashed my sword through the small gap between the blades.

Then, immediately, other blades began to rush towards me.

As if he wouldn’t allow my actions at all.

As he retrieves the longsword he had thrust in, he deflects one of the flying blades with the dagger he holds in his left hand.

Of all the blades, this one is the most threatening.

– Hey!!!!

Tiny sparks that fly when metal collides with metal.

It was a small flower made of fire.

As I swung my dagger at the flower, the flower made of fire disappeared.

Instead, what bloomed was a giant flower made of blood.

The dagger was stuck in Minotaur’s neck, causing a magnificent fountain.

Before one of the disarmed Minotaurs could even fall to the ground, he quickly picked up his giant sword that had lost its master and swung it in a big swing.

Blood flowers blooming from monsters that allow attacks.

Flames blooming from the weapons of monsters that block attacks.

The monsters, overwhelmed by the two flowers, hesitated to move.

‘Fuck, I wish I could just bring one of them back to reality.’

[It’s an ingredient for noodle soup as soon as you take it.]

There were still a lot of them, but compared to when we fought the goblins earlier, they were truly fair.

He rushed straight in and gradually reduced their numbers.

Cut it. Step on it. Jump over it. Cut it.

After quite some time, we finally managed to kill all the Minotaurs and the training ended.

Of course, the first thing to do as soon as you get back.

“You didn’t type it in correctly again?”

Go to Professor Marina and complain.

There were too many.

Because that number was absolutely not something that could be handled alone.

“No? Is there a problem?”

“Don’t talk nonsense. You didn’t monitor it again, did you? There were more than one or two numbers.”

“……No.”

Suddenly Professor Marina averted her gaze from me.

Looks like I was right.

I was wondering why the hell this bastard was acting like this, and then a thought suddenly occurred to me.

“Are you writing a letter of explanation and making a fuss because my arm broke last time?”

“……”

They say that when people have nothing to say, they swear.

It was Professor Marina who suddenly and silently swung her whip towards me.

Since there was no proper way to block the flying whip, I took it with my head.

‘That’s right, that bastard.’

***

After work was over, I went back to work at the restaurant and waited for the deer.

Of course, I’m not alone.

Jeong A-yeon is glaring. Hye-ji is watching with an annoyed expression.

And even Elsia, who was smiling brightly with an expectant expression.

“Elsia, you didn’t have to come.”

“Wherever the husband goes, the wife must go with him!”

“……Put down the fried food you’re holding and let’s talk.”

“Oh my! I picked it up without realizing it!”

Elsia was smiling brightly while diligently reaching for the fried food.

To be exact, it should be said that Elsia’s hands and mouth move independently of her will.

When the hand brought something to the mouth, the mouth instinctively chewed.

The reason why it is expressed as something is simple.

Even though I picked up the tissue next to me, I chewed it up right away.

Elsia quickly ate another piece of fried food and smiled happily.

“Still, the restaurant is such a great place! They serve unlimited food like this!”

“It’s mine, damn it.”

The kitchen staff gave me some fried food to keep an eye on.

That was moving fairly quickly into Elsia’s mouth right now.

It’s like someone who has been starving for several days eating food in a hurry.

‘Save the shrimp tempura, you little punk.’

[It looks like there won’t even be a tail left.]

Then, I was still worried that Jeong A-yeon was still waiting.

“But he might not come today, so why do I have to wait?”

“I must see with my own eyes that firearms can never be recognized as martial arts.”

“Shinwoo, that’s not necessarily the case. Look over there.”

“Oh, right. That guy from last time came again.”

The place Hyeji pointed to.

There was the martial arts deer I saw last time.

Accompanied by a large herd of deer.

There was no particular reason why I was certain it was a martial arts deer the moment I saw it.

Because that deer also had a number on its head.

Now, Jeong A-yeon spoke to me in a slightly worried tone.

“…Confucius, the numbers seem too many. Is that okay?”

“Don’t worry. I have something prepared for you.”

Take a few deep breaths.

Then he cleared his throat and shouted loudly.

“Sankyungdae assembly!!!!!”

But nothing happened.

All that exists is an uncomfortable silence.

‘These kids…’

[Isn’t that because you’re afraid that if you answer, it’ll end up as ‘Yongdunimi’?]

The group began to look at me with two eyes.

Pathetic. And sad.

Of course, Elsia didn’t stop her hands and mouth during that time.

‘Leave the shrimp tempura, you piece of shit.’

[It seems like you eat almost out of instinct.]

Unable to bear the gazes of his companions, he finally took out his cheat key.

He cleared his throat again and shouted louder than before.

“Sanvengers!!!!!!!!!!!”

The group’s eyes were now filled with more pity than disappointment.

But that feeling of regret quickly turned into a feeling of shock.

Because, the moment no one noticed.

Because an eagle appeared on my left.

“Shinwoo!! There’s an eagle next to you!! An eagle!!”

“Confucius! Be careful!”

“Don’t worry, he’s my colleague.”

“Sir! Woof woof!”

“You eat everything and then tell me, please.”

From that point on, countless animals began to gather around me.

I slowly started to leave the restaurant with the animals.

When the distance from the herd of deer was not far.

Although no one said anything, we all stopped at the same time as if we had made a promise.

In a quiet standoff.

That moment when there is not a single breath of wind.

In the midst of tension that felt like it would explode.

I spoke quietly but clearly.

“Assembly.”

With those words, we all ran towards the herd of deer.

A herd of deer started running towards him.

The curtain has risen on the epic war of beasts.
