S-Class Hunter Heals with Monsters - Chapter 147



Only Noblemtl

Episode 147: The medicine bottle hidden in the wall.

Nam Ki-seok’s special hybrid dance rushed to the end.

The finale was decorated with Dodak’s roar.

-Huh!

As if that was a signal, everyone stopped moving.

“Huh… Huh… .”

Nam Ki-seok, who danced passionately, wiped the sweat from his forehead. Behind him, Nari Kim was also taking a deep breath.

-Huh… Huh… .

Dodak also breathes into his shoulders.

Unfortunately, the time limit for sharing power with Cheon Do-un has ended.

Today, as much as I used up my stamina, the duration ended quickly.

From the middle, Dodak’s feet were shaking because he responded with Mandragora’s unique low-quality physical strength.

Seeing that, Cheon Do-un took out a branch of the World Tree from his bag.

When I gently extended it to Dodak, the roots of my arms grabbed hold of the tree branch.

-Whoa, whoa!

Dodak hit the table with his cane and straightened up.

Dodaki is a grassroots person with strong pride. Support is not tolerated.

However, I could do anything as long as I could stand upright using the king’s cane.

Dodak stood up and looked at Ki-seok Nam. He cleared his throat and was looking at Yoo Ji-ah.

In Dodak’s eyes, it looked like he was avoiding his own eyes.

-Help, hehe!

Avoiding eye contact is an admission of defeat.

I won. Dodak raised his cane. Although he stumbled, he held on to the end and was lucky.

“okay. “That’s great.”

I don’t know what it was, but I felt like I needed to praise it because of the atmosphere.

When Cheon Do-woon gave words of encouragement, Dodak could not hold on any longer and collapsed.

Cheon Do-un, who saw this, put his hand between the tables and caught Dodak.

“great job.”

I don’t know what it was, but I patted Dodak’s back with my palm.

A satisfying huff came out.

He told me how difficult it was to fall asleep.

‘I put Dodak to sleep. Is there any left over there now?’

Cheon Do-un looked at Yoo Ji-ah.

As always, Yoo Ji-ah’s expression could not be seen because of the bone helmet.

But I could tell that she was also enjoying the current situation. The proof was that the corners of her mouth were trembling and turning up.

“Uh, how was it?”

Nam Ki-seok asked. It seemed like he was asking Cheon Do-woon and Yu-beom, but his eyes were watching Yoo Ji-ah’s reaction.

“the best.”

Yubeom answered. Ki-seok Nam always did not disappoint his expectations.

“It was a dance you couldn’t take your eyes off.”

Cheon Do-un also said. He wasn’t lying.

I was a little skeptical about whether it could really be called a dance, but it was true that I couldn’t take my eyes off it.

Both evaluations were made. Now the only one left is Yoo Ji-ah.

Nam Ki-seok looked at her with a nervous face.

Just when the silence felt like an eternity, Yoo Ji-ah finally opened her mouth.

“Good.”

A short word flowed out. It was short, but it was enough to put Ki-Seok Nam on the clouds.

“It was fun.”

It’s not cool, it’s fun. It was a little different from the impression he had hoped for, but Nam Ki-seok didn’t mind.

At least it’s not a negative review. That was enough for now.

It was a fun time for both those who danced and those who watched.

The group applauded. As everyone cheered, Ki-seok Nam scratched his head with an embarrassed expression.

His spectacular headbanging greatly helped the group unite.

Of course, the only one who burst out in it was Park Soo-kwon.

‘I memorized the dance. I memorized it, but… ‘Can I do it?’

I don’t know. I am not confident.

He didn’t have the confidence to show off that unidentifiable hand signal in front of the crew.

Su-kwon Park’s expression darkened, but no one paid attention to it.

* * *

After the passionate headbanging, the atmosphere relaxed.

Nam Ki-seok cleaned up after himself and stood up, taking Kim Nari with him.

“Then we’ll go and sleep first. Park Soo-kwon, let’s go to sleep too. “You can use the room on the second floor.”

“If it’s a room on the second floor… “The one made of bones?”

“yes. I will bring out the sleeping bag and blanket. “I brought a few extras just in case.”

The sleeping bag is not the problem. If you sleep in a house made of unidentified bones, won’t you get hit by scissors?

He wanted to say that, but Nam Ki-seok pushed him on the back.

Since there would be a lot of things they wanted to say among fellow lab members, I decided to avoid the meeting.

Cheon Do-un smiled at his consideration and looked at number 49.

“These are the siblings I was talking about. “After she escaped the lab, she has been living at the gate ever since.”

At his words, I saw my brother and sister 49 times. Her siblings also saw him and approached him.

“I didn’t know there were more survivors besides us who escaped. nice to meet.”

“Uh, huh. nice to meet you.”

“But my real name is probably not number 49. What’s your real name? “Now that we’re alone, tell me.”

“that is… “Actually, I don’t remember.”

Number 49 said with a shy face.

Couldn’t even the branches of the World Tree revive my memories? Cheon Do-un thought as he looked at him.

Number 49, who sensed that thought, hurriedly spoke.

“I remembered almost everything. However, I was taken to the research center when I was about 6 years old. I guess it’s because I kept getting called by my number from then on… “I think I had already forgotten my name by then.”

No matter how much the power of the World Tree was, it could not bring back even the memories forgotten due to my young age.

“For now, call me number 49. “I’ll tell you later when I build a new one.”

Although the number was called from the research institute, there was no resistance.

He has saved people from drowning in the sea throughout his life.

When someone asked their name, they would say ’49’, the only thing that came to mind.

For someone with no memory, that title was the only link that showed him that he was a person.

“I want to learn how to return to human form. “How do you do that?”

“I said it before, but it’s important to remember the feelings you had when you were a person. Of course, even if your memories come back, it won’t be possible right away.”

Even for Yubeom, it took quite a long time for his new head to return to its human form.

It took so long that I got used to it.

Now, Yoo-beom says he feels more comfortable with his new hair and lives with it.

‘Because Number 49 lived in his current body for decades. I guess it’s the same as getting used to it.’

However, the difference with Yu-beom was that his range of action was limited due to his changed body.

I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable because I couldn’t get out of the water.

“It would be quicker to learn tricks from your siblings than from me. “I’m a bit of a unique case.”

“okay? Then, I will ask for some tutoring in the future.”

At those words, the siblings laughed as if telling them to leave it to themselves.

Cheon Do-un and his siblings and number 49. All four of them had rarely met each other at the research institute.

Although they were virtually meeting each other for the first time, they felt close to each other.

It was a bond of having experienced the same situation.

‘This isn’t that bad either.’

For some reason, the military family seemed to be getting bigger, but I thought it wasn’t a bad thing.

* * *

Early moning. Cheon Do-un went out into the yard and stopped.

There was a huge ore lying in one part of the yard. It was dark last night so I didn’t pay attention to it.

‘no. Not ore… ‘Is it a conch shell?’

A large conch measuring three meters in diameter and three meters in height.

The brother and sister who went to look for signboard materials brought back none other than a conch shell.

It wasn’t just size. The pure white surface of the conch sparkled in the sunlight like an opal.

“how is it. Are you fine?”

The brother and sister said as they jumped off the rib dome.

“It would be pretty cool if we cut this up and made a sign.”

“I see. “Where did you get this?”

“At the bottom of the sea floor. “It was buried in the sand.”

The brother and sister said with proud faces. Cheondoun also seemed to like her and nodded his head.

Kim Nari also woke up and went out into the yard, and her eyes widened.

“Wow, it’s a large conch!”

Nari Kim twirled around Sora.

“It sparkles. pretty. “Our Coconut Family’s sign is gorgeous!”

Nari Kim also seemed to like it, raising her arms and shouting.

“mister. So are you making signs now?”

“That’s right. “I just want to use it for something else before cutting it into a sign.”

“Any other uses?”

“uh. Turn this conch over and put water inside. “It is used as a rehabilitation tool for number 49.”

Cheon Do-un’s words made the siblings look puzzled. The expression on his face asked how this could be a rehabilitation tool.

“When I was at the research institute, I saw a situation similar to number 49.”

Cheon Do-un said, looking back on his memories of that time.

“He was also a mixture of aquatic monster cells. As a side effect, fish-like scales grew on my body. He later returned to his human form. “I suffered from dry skin for a while.”

Considering that precedent, No. 49 will show a similar pattern in the beginning.

“Even if a bridge is built, life on land will not be possible right away.”

This conch shell was a rehabilitation tool for that time.

If you fill the water and leave it in the yard, you don’t have to go all the way to the waterfall valley. When you’re in a hurry, you can jump right in and get your body wet.

“It’s a problem that can be solved if you stay near the valley. If I were to return to a human body, it would be comfortable to stay here with the living conditions. “This is a kind of rehabilitation tool for that time.”

It was sufficient to make the sign after rehabilitation was completed.

The siblings’ eyes lit up at Cheon Do-un’s words.

It would be great if what they rescued could be used to rehabilitate their colleagues.

“Then I’ll have to check to see if there are any water leaks. “We’ll fetch water.”

The siblings flew up holding conch shells on both sides.

After a while, they brought a conch full of water. It wasn’t just water that was brought.

“Well, what is this? “As I live, I see things like this flying in the sky.”

Inside the conch, number 49 was submerged in the water with a puzzled face.

There was no confusion because I had already heard about the purpose of the conch. He looked around with a curious expression.

Shiny fences and ribbed domes.

A second-floor room made of fluorescent houses and bones.

They were all strange, but to number 49, they just seemed strange.

Having lived under the sea his entire life, he never had a chance to see the building up close.

“These days, houses are built this way. It’s very different from what I remember. “I feel like times have changed.”

He looked at Cheon Do-un’s house with new emotions.

“I guess this is the generation gap. “I feel like I’ve taken a time machine to the future.”

“No, that’s… .”

The siblings looked at Cheon Do-un’s house with subtle expressions.

Isn’t this a generation gap issue?

Even if I took a time machine and went to the future, I didn’t think there would be another house like that.

That’s what I thought, but Yubeom didn’t correct 49’s misunderstanding.

‘It’s fun, so let’s just leave it alone.’

If you succeed in rehabilitation and take the first step out of the gate, you will realize that you have been fooled.

It was a situation where there was no one who was deceived, only those who were deceived.

Number 49 looked around and froze when he saw the laboratory building.

“for a moment. “Isn’t that the lab we were in?”

“that’s right.”

“Why is it here? “Is this the mountain where we were kidnapped?”

“That’s not it. “I picked it up because I needed it.”

What are you talking about? A building? Number 49 had a blank face.

“We are investigating whether there is any remaining data on the researchers. Because the government shouldn’t take the first step. “I moved the whole thing and planted it here.”

“ah… huh. Move… hmm. I see “You planted it.”

If you look at the way he speaks calmly, it might be normal.

‘In these days, are buildings also transplanted like saplings?’

Times have really changed a lot.

Number 49 just nodded his head as an incomprehensible level of cultural difference arose.

‘oh my god. fun.’

The siblings next to me were happy to see number 49.

Later on, you might get kicked in the face and asked why you didn’t tell me, but that’s for later.

You can leave future work to your future self.

The siblings purely enjoyed the current situation.

“Now that I think about it, I hid a medicine in the room I was using. “Do you still want to be there?”

“approximately? “What kind of medicine is it?”

“I don’t know either. Someone dropped it and hid it. “I just remember that the researcher took great care of it.”

Number 49 said, trying to remember.

“The thing in the bottle was moving around slowly. It was definitely not a living thing. “It looked like metal.”

Cheon Do-un paused at the word metal. Number 49, who did not see that, continued.

“The scolding must be… okay. “It was unique because it looked like a liquid even though it was metal.”

At his words, Kim Nari, who had been circling around Sora, suddenly stopped.
