“A black dog!?”

From Noble mtl dot com

Lee Hwa-rin was so embarrassed that she forgot to tell Ceylon that she had committed something similar to a special assault and kept it a secret, so she broke down the wall of flames.

Lee Hwa-rin walks quickly to the location where the black dog is lying down.

“… “

Her mouth fell open.

Her black sunglasses and coat seem to reveal rather than hide her presence in the darkness of the night.

And even though she is unconscious, the feeling of intimidation and fear that makes her surroundings tingle.

It is clearly a black dog.

He was the one who made her come here, facing her life on her rooftop.

‘Look, it’s a black dog.’

‘After all, it’s me, I can’t be wrong.’

If she were the usual Lee Hwa-rin, she would have been so drunk on herself.

However, there was a problem serious enough to put Lee Hwa-rin’s narcissism on the back burner, which was now a priority above all else.

‘How…’ ?’

Lee Hwa-rin, who witnessed a black dog looking down at her from her rooftop, took action without delay.

Using the power of Mana, she entered the building with superhuman speed and climbed the five flights of stairs until she reached the rooftop.

About 1 minute.

It was the time when all the processes were completed.

For example.

The black dog was subdued by someone for a short period of time, about a minute or so.

‘It makes sense…’ ?’

Class A awakened person.

They were also called the Second Awakening.

It’s not like I’ve really gone through another awakening, but the gap that exists between Class A and Class B abilities is-

The name was given because it resembles the gap that exists between ordinary people and the awakened.

Like that, the power of the A-class awakened people was different even among the awakened ones.

Lee Hwa-rin was also a class A awakener like Black Dog.

However, it wasn’t long before she reached Grade A.

On the other hand, Black Dog was an awakened person who had already reached Grade A a long time ago.

In the hunter world, there was often an opinion about Black Dog that her grade should be raised to A+.

In fact, if it weren’t for the Hunter Association’s tendency to intentionally set the grades of villains and outers low, he would have been graded A+ long ago.

“What Hwarin Lee saw was this black dog that had already collapsed…? ?”

One of her colleagues asked Lee Hua-lin.

It was a stupid question.

If the black dog had already fallen, how could Lee Hwa-rin feel his life and witness him?

But it was also an obvious question.

It was less than a minute.

1 Minute!

Who on earth could subdue the black dog and disappear smoothly in such a short period of time?

A very small number of S-class hunters?

I don’t know.

When the accident reached that point, the shock felt by Lee Hwa-rin and her group became even greater.

Out-of-standard monsters who treat people with Class A abilities like children.

Someone has accomplished something that even an S-class awakened person cannot guarantee.

“Oh, that’s-“

At that time, someone in the group belatedly recognized Ceylon.

“… !’

Lee Hwa-rin, who could not get over the shock, quickly came to her senses and looked at Ceylon.

‘No way, that person…’ ?’

Ceylon defeated the Black Dog.

That was the most likely case given the circumstances.

‘That can’t be possible!?’

Of course, this is only considering the circumstances.

Let’s leave aside the fact that Ceylon is an incredibly goofy-looking guy.

But even if I looked at it without prejudice, nothing changed.

The mana felt from Ceylon was extremely minimal.

Rather than subduing the black dog in less than a minute, he was a person who would be killed by the black dog in just one second.

This is the conclusion Lee Hwa-rin ultimately reached.

“Who is it!?”

Lee Hwa-rin passionately grabbed Silon’s arm.

There was another person here besides Ceylon.

He saved Ceylon and left his position.

Lee Hwa-rin concluded that.

Of course, there were quite a few unnatural aspects in making conclusions –

At least it was a much more persuasive reasoning than saying that Ceylon was a powerhouse that slaughtered black dogs.

“… “

Ceylon was worried.

Should I reveal that it was I who subdued that pitch-black friend, or should I hide it?

The worries did not last long.

‘Let’s hide it.’

The reason was simple.

‘Because it seems like a hassle.’

Judging by the reaction of Lee Hwa-rin and her group.

The person named ‘Black Dog’ seemed to be a fairly major criminal.

Perhaps if you reveal that it was you who subdued that thing, you might be able to receive the treatment you deserve.

If you reveal your power here and now-

You might associate yourself with the giant gate that just appeared and then suddenly disappeared.

The ‘Hunter Association’ that Hwarin Lee mentioned will show considerable interest, and considering the status of the Association and Hunters in society-

The association’s interest will soon become the public’s interest.

Even though it changed, the Earth was still the Earth.

Ceylon knew this Earth well.

Famousness on this planet had the property of spreading as quickly as light.

If the truth spreads that she is a returnee who appeared from an enormous gate –

You will become a celebrity overnight.

And you will live the life of a celebrity.

Current Ceylon did not want that.

What he wanted now was a suitable foundation to welcome his friends who would soon arrive in modern times.

And while giving his friends a tour of modern times, he was trying to figure out a way for them to return to their original world.

And above all.

“Surely, there was someone else besides you!?”

I thought it would be fun.

Ceylon was a shabby person who enjoyed the shady and dirty situation of deceiving others.

So Ceylon decided to hide the fact that he was the one who subdued the black dog.

After appreciating Lee Hwa-rin’s appearance in cognitive dissonance for a moment, Ceylon opened her mouth.

“I was wearing a mask… “

“… Yes?”

Ceylon continued, pointing to a corner of the rooftop.

“When I showed up here, a masked gunman was already standing in front of the fallen man.”

Ceylon was a skilled person.

Gura expert.

He had already learned through repeated experience how to throw a tantrum in a case like this.

He decided to attribute this incident to another identity of his so that he could control the situation in the future if a problem arises.

“If you go… “

Lee Hwa-rin nodded her head as if satisfied with Ceylon’s answer.

Whoever it was, the fact that it was a third party and not Ceylon that had perpetrated this ridiculous act seemed to calm her confusion.

Thanks to this, Lee Hwa-rin did not doubt Ceylon’s words and she accepted them as they were.

“Could it be ‘that’ that just came out of the gate?”

Similarly, one of Lee Hwa-rin’s companions, who took Ceylon’s words at face value, spoke.

As Ceylon expected, they associated the strong man who overpowered the black dog with the owner of the gate.

“… So what you’re saying is. “Are you saying that that obnoxiously large gate just now is really an emission gate?”

However, another member of the group immediately disagreed, and the person who first spoke was unable to respond.

The gate they had just witnessed had a scale that could not be explained unless it contained a dungeon the size of a large city.

S-class gates that brought disaster to the world.

Even those S-class gates were mere babies compared to that gate.

But that was created by just one individual?

It was hard for any of the awakened to believe it.

However, the situation where the black dog was subdued by an unidentified strongman near the site where the gate occurred gave a little persuasiveness to that ridiculous story.

They decided to take a guess.

If the gate is really an emission gate.

If the assailant who subdued the black dog is the owner of the gate.

What on earth is that?

“Could it be… That he too is a returnee?”

Some people nodded, while others had serious expressions.

Returnee.

They were all at the peak.

All over the world before I came back.

As such, their egos were extremely strong, and the emergence of such strong people always caused great upheaval in modern society.

Cheonma.

Hero.

The devil.

And so on.

For the awakened, these were names that made people dizzy just thinking about them.

“…”

Now that I think about it.

When they also just returned, the huge size of the gate made them a hot topic.

Lee Hwa-rin and her group thought about the size of the gate for existing returnees.

She compared it to the gate she had just seen.

Someone muttered.

“You’re screwed…”

They thought.

Perhaps I have just witnessed the beginning of a cataclysm.

***

“No, that-“

“Crazy, isn’t that a black dog?”

“Was that why Lee Hwa-rin suddenly ran off somewhere?”

“Wow, that’s really crazy…”

It was truly a golden return.

All eyes of awe were directed at Lee Hwa-rin and her group, who returned to the gate location with the black dog restrained.

Of course, the reaction of the parties involved was lukewarm.

Because this achievement was not theirs.

“Lee Hwa-rin!?”

A time when no one dared to talk to Lee Hwa-rin.

A handsome man with a nice smile approached Lee Hwa-rin without hesitation and spoke to her.

Kyu-hwan Kim, an S-class hunter, was appointed by the association as the person in charge of exploration of the very large gate that occurred this time.

“Wow… Lee Hwa-rin, Heukgyeon, and Kim Gyu-hwan… There’s an uproar.”

Roaring.

The appearance of an S-class hunter.

The place was even more excited than when Lee Hwa-rin appeared.

Although it was their first time seeing each other, the two briefly exchanged glances and nodded.

“Everyone, we will disperse for today!”

Results of the survey.

After confirming that the gate was completely destroyed and no traces of it were found in the surrounding area, Kim Gyu-hwan dispersed the hunters, leaving behind a small number of officials.

Then, he called Lee Hwa-rin aside and asked her in detail what had happened before his arrival.

“As expected, there were outerwear waiting nearby.”

The sudden opening and disappearance of the gate to Lee Hwa-rin.

And Kim Gyu-hwan, who heard the full story of the incident involving the black dog, looked at the black dog, who was still unconscious.

“Anyway – an unidentified strong man who instantly overpowered the Black Dog… Is that really true?”

Instead of answering, Lee Hwa-rin turned her gaze to Ceylon, who was standing next to her.

“Oh, now that I think about it, he is-?”

“He’s a returnee. He’s also the witness I just told you about.”

“Returner…!”

“Gate, hunters, villains, seeing as they don’t know anything about such things. I think they are probably victims of the reversal in the early days of Gate.”

“Hoo…”

Kim Gyu-hwan looked up and down Ceylon with eyes full of interest.

Those eyes shook slightly.

‘Too much for a returnee…’

I reached the same conclusion as Lee Hwa-rin.

“He is currently a homeless person with no suitable place to live, so I will protect him and help him until he completes the return process.”

Kim Gyu-hwan raised his eyebrows once and then shook his head.

Why are you trying to help a returnee who seems to have no special powers?

Rather than being beneficial, it would only be an unnecessary burden.

Kim Gyu-hwan never asked that question out loud.

Because Lee Hwa-rin, known to the public, was that kind of person.

An ideal hero who generously gives free favors!

Kim Gyu-hwan, an S-class hunter, looked at his desirable junior with a satisfied gaze.

“…”

Although Lee Hwa-rin acts aloof on the outside-

‘hehehehe.’

Deep inside, the recognition of an S-class hunter made her smile very snobbish and satisfied with her young gaze.

Then the gaze I felt at that time.

“…”

Her Ceylon was beside her, looking at her meaningfully.

Lee Hwa-rin, who remembered that the reason she cared for Ceylon under those gazes was to win his favor by accidentally committing something similar to a special assault, and to shut her mouth, cleared her throat in embarrassment. .

“For that reason, I will entrust the black dog’s safety to Hunter Kim Gyu-hwan. I will try to help this person with the procedures for his return. Is that okay? Since it is late in the day, I will first find a place for this person to stay.”

“Of course. But, the unidentified stranger who took down this black dog in one fell swoop…”

Kim Gyu-hwan quietly looked at the unconscious black dog.

For Kim Gyu-hwan, an S-class hunter of less than ten in Korea, black dogs were not a very threatening opponent.

But.

That said, he was not an easy opponent.

Can you subdue that black dog in about 1 minute?

“…”

Kim Gyu-hwan’s friendly smile was distorted by seriousness.

It was hard to believe.

Is it really true what the returnee, the witness, testified?

The returnee like that – Kim Gyu-hwan looking at Ceylon.

“…Ah!”

He suddenly remembered something and took out a device that looked like a smart phone from his bag.

It was a high-performance mana meter that was planned to be used while exploring the gate.

“I happen to have this. Shall we take care of it now?”

Mana measurement.

This was the first custom that returnees who returned to modern times had to go through.

It was also a process that must be completed in order to secure the rights as a returnee.

In fact, there was no reason to proceed with measuring Ceylon’s mana at this point.

The association had a measuring instrument with much higher performance than these portable measuring instruments.

Unlike the general administrative work of returning returnee procedures, it was an independent matter that was carried out smoothly.

“Oh, is that so? Sir. In order to complete the returnee procedures, I need to measure your mana. Can I finish that right here?”

Nevertheless, the reason why Kim Gyu-hwan and Lee Hwa-rin proceed to measure Ceylon’s mana.

It was pure curiosity.

What is the exact strength of this man, who is so insignificant for a returnee?

“hahahaha, there’s no reason not to.”

“For an accurate measurement, could you please hold this in your hand?”

Ceylon followed Kim Gyu-hwan’s guidance and held the mana meter in his hand.

‘Level D… No, I guess I’ll get to Level C?’

‘Class C…About?’

The two looked at Ceylon holding the mana meter in his hand and immediately assessed his level as if they were being chased.

This was because the amount of mana he possessed was small, and he thought the measured value would come out soon.

From Noble mtl dot com

Is this a kind of game that tests one’s insight?

“…”

“…”

“…”

“…”

“…?”

“…?”

But.

No matter how long I waited, the mana meter did not make its distinctive beeping sound the moment the measurement was completed.

How long has it been like that?

‘Is it really broken?’

By the time Kim Gyu-hwan came to that conclusion-

Beep.

The measuring instrument made a unique beep sound and displayed the measured value on the screen.

[Class: Not measurable]

This was a common problem with cheap mana measuring devices that had low mana measurement limits.

This occurs when the mana of the measurement target exceeds the limit that the mana meter can measure.
