“Healer! This way, please come this way!”

“Here too! There’s a patient here too, come on!”

Boom boom boom

Kwakwang

The city center we arrived at after a short flight was even more serious than the horrendous scene a moment ago.

Literally, Abi Gyu-hwan

The sounds of people screaming and monsters howling can be heard here and there.

At every moment, there was the sound of something exploding in all directions.

In fact, buildings were collapsing and car fragments were flying.

This place was literally in the middle of a battlefield.

“Coogrrr”

Even at first glance, these giant orcs appear to be as tall as a two or three-story building.

Their population was so large that it was difficult to count them.

The number of hunters constantly swinging their swords and spraying magic seemed to be insufficient.

“This…this…”

“Come to your senses. Because this is real life. Don’t relax, orcs are known as monsters that are not very fast compared to their destructive power. If you just apply what you trained at the academy well, dealing with them won’t be impossible.”

Seol-Hyeon Yoo, who always spoke softly and hugged Ji-Hoon, still shows the calmness of a first-class cadet.

She consoles Sojung, who was in shock for a moment and was about to bruise.

So-jung regains her senses and boosts her magical power in response to Seol-hyeon’s beatings.

“From now on, let’s move together as one body! The best way to minimize damage is to kill more orcs even one second faster.”

Following Seolhyun’s instructions, Sojung, who has raised her magical power, casts a skill.

Also, Seolhyun, who has already drawn her sword, unleashes her magic sword skills and runs towards the orcs.

There were no special tactics or strategies.

There were only three troops dispatched from Korea.

but,

In the face of this terrible tragedy, where countless ordinary citizens were dying, Sojung and Seolhyeon raised their magic power without hesitation and rushed at the orcs.

The multinational hunters of the Asian Hunter Alliance, who were already fighting against the orcs,

Without even having time to exchange words with the two women who joined late, they gave each other their backs and continued to join forces.

Pubung

Powwow

Kwakwang

“Han So-jeong! Yoo Seolhyun! Don’t get hurt and hold on!”

Jihoon’s voice resonates and reaches Sojung and Seolhyun.

The two smiled lightly without even having time to reply, and worked hard to deal with the orcs.

Even before arriving at the center, the three of them knew what they had to do without saying anything to each other.

Sojung and Seolhyeon join the multinational coalition and do their best to deal with the orcs who have already escaped.

Meanwhile, Jihoon jumps inside the gate, kills the boss mob, and destroys the gate.

Overly simple division of roles.

A no-fuss plan that doesn’t take into account the possibility of failing to attack the boss mob.

If you can’t catch the boss mob inside the gate and orcs keep pouring out…

A situation where you have to fight non-stop for one day, two days, ten days…

But Sojung and Seolhyun trusted Jihoon.

Leaving behind Jihoon running towards the gate,

They use their strength to catch the orcs without hesitation.

just a little,

All I had to do was kill the guys here and hold on for a little while.

Obviously… Jihoon will definitely catch the boss mob and destroy the gate…

***

Jihoon jumps inside the gate and feels the heat entering his nose.

Jihoon had experience conquering gates several times, but this gate felt something different.

“Is it because it is a class A gate? The air itself is heavy and hot…hmm”

Jihoon hurriedly took steps to move deep inside the gate.

He pulled out the White Moon and cut down the pouring Orcs with a single sword, moving and moving like that.

As Jihoon was running, a small cave appeared in his field of vision.

Ji-hoon approaches the cave after feeling the magical energy flowing from inside.

Sigh

Jihoon dodges the flaming arrows that shoot out of the cave in an instant by just nodding his head.

Then soon,

Two people who appear

There was a woman with long straight hair and golden plate armor, and a man with dark skin.

“People? Are you a person? Oh my…who are you?”

It was a man’s question.

“My name is Kang Ji-hoon, a hunter who was deployed from Korea.”

“Ugh, sorry for the attack. I felt a presence approaching and thought it was a monster…”

“Oh well…it’s okay because I didn’t get it right. Who are you two?”

“I am Kamal Kapur, a hunter from India.”

“I’m Naoki. I’m from Japan…but…Korea? Did you send troops to Korea too? Hunter…is that right?”

The Japanese female hunter who introduced herself as Naokira had no choice but to ask this question as she could not sense even the slightest magical power from Jihoon.

“Um…yes, you are a hunter. I dispatched troops at the request of the president of the Korea Hunter Management Association. I came with two colleagues, and they are fighting monsters outside the gate.”

“Three people? There are only three people… after all, Korea…”

Naoki did not hide his expression of disappointment and blatantly looked Jihoon up and down.

“Excuse me, but may I ask your hunter level?”

“Yes, it is level E.”

“Huh!”

“Well…”

Upon hearing Jihoon’s answer, even Kapur, who was just watching from the side, clicked his tongue and shook his head.

“I’m not kidding, wouldn’t it be better to leave Korea out of the Asian Hunter Union?”

“That’s what I said.”

Naoki and Kapur started grumbling as if they had forgotten that Jihoon was in front of them.

” Lee Ja-yoon, who was supposed to come, didn’t come, and some Korean hunter… wait a minute… ”

Naoki senses something strange and faces Jihoon again.

“You say you’re an E-level hunter? Did you encounter any monsters after entering the gate and coming to this location?”

“You mean orcs? Did you cut down all the guys you saw on the way?”

Come to think of it,

Naoki’s eyes catch Jihoon’s excessively neat clothes and the contrasting sight of a white sword dripping with blood.

As Naoki was lost in thought, tilting his head as if he didn’t understand this strange situation, Jihoon began to talk to her.

“If the person you are waiting for is Chinese Hunter Lee Jayun, she will not come.”

“Yes?”

“What?”

Naoki and Kapur’s eyes instantly look at Jihoon.

“Do you know Lee Ja-yoon?”

“Not that I know him…I met him briefly on the way.”

“I met you on the way…tell me in detail. This means that we have been holding out at this gate for over 30 hours just waiting for Lee Jayun. The magic of the boss mob, the Orc Priest, is too powerful. If you do not have Chinese ranker Li Jayun, you cannot clear this gate. If we catch the orc priest as quickly as possible, we can end the Gatebreak situation…”

Ever since he heard that Lee Ja-yoon couldn’t come, Naoki’s expression had rapidly darkened.

It seemed like he had full faith in Lee Jayun as the person who would put an end to this unwinnable fight.

“That guy… came to Singapore…but he probably went back to China due to some circumstances.”

“Well…what is that…”

“Oops! There is really no hope now!”

The expressions of the two people were becoming infinitely distorted.

Jihoon, not sure if he knows how they feel, calmly starts asking questions.

“The boss mob is an orc priest? And magic? Do monsters use magic too?”

“A-level gate… This is not the first case of a boss mob using magic appearing at such a high-level gate. However, the boss mob was hiding its power for some reason right before the gatebreak, so Singapore was late in requesting support. In fact, a gate subjugation of this magnitude should have involved a multinational coalition force or a large global guild from the beginning. Sigh…If you don’t have a top-level hunter to attack boss mobs…this situation could last for months, not just a few days. Singapore is now…”

Naoki with a despairing expression

She seemed genuinely concerned about the current situation, as if she were Singaporean and not Japanese.

“Well…it’s a bit awkward to say this with my own mouth, but…”

Jihoon pauses slightly and continues speaking.

“I’m probably…the top level hunter you’re talking about. You may be disappointed that Korea only supported three troops, but in fact, it was Korea that sent the most powerful troops to this gatebreak.”

Naoki and Kapur make eye contact.

What is this guy talking about now?

The expressions on their faces seemed to have exactly this question.

“Ha…Kang Ji-hoon…? Mr. Kang Ji-hoon…is there a joke coming out of this serious situation? I don’t think it’s your country’s business and I’m thinking of making a joke right now!”

Naoki shouts in exasperation.

Is it because her emotions exploded? Even her magic power came flowing out.

Jihoon lightly looked into her eyes and spoke softly.

“There’s no need to say much, I’ll just guide you to the location of the boss mob. I’ll take care of the rest”

tudung

When Naoki meets Jihoon’s calm eyes, he feels his survival instinct sending him a strong warning.

‘What…what is it? I can’t feel any magical energy… but why does it feel like I’m being overwhelmed by this E-class hunter…’

Naoki’s instincts were quite accurate.
