The Girl I Saved Came Back As An S-rank Hunter - The Girl I Saved Came Back As An S-rank Hunter chapter 94

94 – Meet him

I shook my head and turned around as I watched Han Yoo-ra sit down in tears.

I know that even if I continue to face her here, it will only hurt her, so at least this is the last consideration I can give her.

“Is it okay if I don’t dig out more information?”

Choi Tae-shik asks about Kang So-young.

I felt like I was caught at an embarrassing scene, but I tried my best to pretend to be calm.

“Yes. I don’t want anything to do with that guy anymore. It was a relationship that should have ended in the first place.”

“At least it will be needed to find Sujeongi’s location?”

“Looking at the people lying down there so easily, they don’t look very complicated. And it must have consumed a lot of mana to forcefully summon it.”

“I guess so. It must have been too time-consuming to complicate the dungeon interior.”

Choi Tae-sik nodded as if he understood.

Then he asked me.

“Are you really going alone? Why don’t you take my help along the way? As that young thing said, it’s true that you’re still not good enough to deal with my son.”

A worried voice.

Still, after spending a few days together and teaching, he seems to be getting on his nerves.

“No, it’s okay. Because you know that.”

“… I felt it even then, but he really doesn’t know how precious his life is.”

“That’s my strength. You don’t know the subject.”

“Whoops….”

Choi Tae-shik smiles bitterly.

Then he grabbed my shoulder and said.

“As promised, I will make sure these people are protected. Instead, as you promised, come back alive with Sujeong. Because I don’t want to lose the best disciple I’ve ever had.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“And take this.”

He takes something out of his pocket and hands it to me.

What I received was a pair of worn-out black gloves.

It is an open finger type style designed to allow the fingers to move freely.

“What is this?”

“This is an item I got when I killed Thunderbird, one of the S-class monsters. It has the ability to make the entire body resistant to electric attacks.”

“Ah… !”

Choi Woo-suk’s unique attribute is [Lightning].

It looks like they are handing it over as a countermeasure against this.

“Thank you. Handing over such a nice item.”

Let’s bow our heads to express our gratitude, then wave our hands and say.

“… It’s okay. You borrowed it, so come back alive.”

“Huh, I understand. Then let’s go.”

“Okay, go ahead.”

“Yes, Master. I’m coming!”

Putting on the gloves I received, I came out through the entrance filled with the remains of monsters.

* * *

Due to Sujeong’s personality, there was a high probability that he hated walking thoughtlessly, so he kept moving by following the trails of the monsters in reverse.

After walking for such a long time, hardened bloodstains caught my eye.

And next to it are the footprints that find them and follow them.

Judging from the size and stride, it must be Sujeong.

And those footprints lead to a building that looks like a cathedral.

“Did I go over there….”

A magnificent building that can be seen even from afar.

But for some reason, there was something ominous about it, so I decided to look around later.

I wish I hadn’t gone over there.

It seems like Sujeongi jumped right in to find the cause of this situation.

So I followed along toward the cathedral.

After a while, the footprints of Sujeongi, who was struggling to enter the interior near the cathedral, and the traces of the battle appeared mixed.

Sujeong has only one opponent.

If you look at the soot left around him, it’s probably correct to think of him as Choi Woo-seok.

Since the two do not feel their magic power, it is possible to know that the battle is over.

Judging from the fact that Choi Woo-seok’s magic was cut off in the middle, it seems that he did not inflict a fatal attack, so his life does not appear to be greatly affected.

In addition, the [Saintess] Trait has the self-healing ability, so it should be fine.

“Whoa….”

I was worried about Sujeongie and wanted to jump in right away, so I took a deep breath and tried to calm it down.

Choi Tae-sik said that in order to beat Choi Woo-seok, it is essential to remain calm and not be swayed by his madness.

“Okay. Let’s go.”

Breaking in my calm mind again, I went inside through the entrance where only the hinges of the door remained.

The traces of Choi Woo-seok and Su-jeong’s magical powers are deeply engraved here and there, as if the battle started here.

“… “

So I raised my guard and moved forward slowly.

Because he often uses an attack method where he hides his mana in a space where there are many remaining mana and suddenly attacks, you need to be careful.

Turb. Turbuck. Turbuck.

A cautious step, as if crossing a rocking bridge that might collapse any moment.

I don’t know if anyone sees it and says it should be frustrating like that, but if I get fatally injured or die, I’m the only one who loses.

The words to knock on a stone bridge and cross it is the moment I need the most.

It’s just that it’s usually only a few steps on foot, but since I walk very slowly, it still feels far away.

“Whoa….”

Turb. Turbuck.

A very slow pace.

But after a while, the thought that I had done well filled my head.

Tick.

I feel like I’ve touched a thin line on my foot, and I get a tingling sensation.

And then a familiar voice came from my ear.

“I told you so, but you came here to be taken advantage of again. Kkeuk!”

Choi Woo-seok suddenly appeared overhead.

The guy who already has his own magical powers on his body puts his own weight on it and kicks his kicks down.

As much as I was on guard, I also quickly raised my magic power and defended it by stretching out my hands in an X-shape.

– Kung!

Shockwaves and explosions caused by the collision of each other’s magical powers.

I felt like my arm was about to break from being touched by the heavy attack, but I pushed through it and bounced it off.

“Whoa. It seems that the trash has turned into something usable?”

Choi Woo-seok looks surprised as if he didn’t think he would defend it properly.

Then, as if he wanted to test it further, he continued his attack.

“Then, where should I stop this?”

After landing on the ground, Choi Woo-seok stretches his fist straight toward my face.

A punch that flies as fast as it contains the energy of lightning.

However, unlike before, the trajectory is clearly visible.

So I decided to fight back and stretched out my fist.

In order to save the chance of a [Counterattack] To the guy who is unguarded without raising his sword.

Fists crossed while facing each other.

However, I tilted my head slightly to the side thinking that I could avoid it as long as it flew in a visible trajectory.

Wheek.

As he easily dodges his punches, his eyes widen.

But it’s difficult to be surprised that much.

Because this is real.

Puck!

“Ouch!”

A fist pierced precisely to the face.

Choi Woo-suk was blown away by the shock and flew away, then hit a wall and fell to the floor.

A state where everything seems to have gone as intended.

But nothing good comes out.

A little while ago, I felt a light sensation in my hand.

And most of all, Choi Woo-seok’s mana disappeared as if it evaporated in an instant before his fist touched it.

“hahahaha…. Driving me crazy.”

I’m really dumbfounded.

Does it make sense that he saw through my [Counterattack] In that fleeting moment and turned off all his magic?

Such fine mana control has never been heard anywhere in the world.

However, since the person in front of me did it as if it were natural, I have nothing to say.

“Your fist is quite spicy. It is spicy. Maybe it’s because I grew up needlessly because I lacked talent.”

Unlike the bold flight, Choi Woo-suk stood up casually and turned his head to shake off his dusty clothes.

Then he stared at my gloves and nodded as if he understood something.

“Somehow. Even if they were useful, there’s no way they could defeat S-rank kids at the same time. I thought I’d bring Taesik Choi. Are you doing something?”

Choi Woo-seok knew about these gloves, and he recognized the existence of Choi Tae-shik right away.

However, he raised the corner of his mouth and let out a sneer.

“But what can I do? How could that nobleman not do me good? I have a debt A very big debt of heart.”

“… I already knew that. And I had no intention of entrusting it to anyone in the first place. It’s my job to protect Sujeongi myself.”

“Kuh-kuh, is it like the last remaining pride? Or is it that you can turn away from reality and do something with spirit?”

“No. I never thought that I could beat you unconditionally. I just came because I had to step up to protect the woman I love.”

“Foot. You were a very loving person, asshole. Alright then, shall we go see the girlfriend we love? Uh!”

Choi Woo-seok suddenly draws his sword.

Then, he put his magical energy into his sword and rushed at me.

From noble mtl dot com

A huge amount of mana that can be seen with the naked eye.

I thought it was impossible to block it, so I threw my body to the side and rolled toward the floor to avoid it.

“Where!”

Then he lowered his stance and swung his sword low to the floor.

“Ugh!”

The wind pressure created by the magical power radiating from the sword.

After a while, the magical power that reached me lifted my body up and began to fly toward the wall.
