Episode 418

#418. When did that guy get so big?

In this day and age, it is not hard to find a good story of a hunter throwing himself to save someone from a life-threatening situation caused by a monster.

Nevertheless, the cable car people’s reaction to Goeulji went beyond enthusiasm for a life-saver and a hero.

That meant it was an extreme situation. The imminent danger that can only be imagined is more frightening than the death that is right in front of you.

People cheered like fanatics. This was because Goeulji was a famous hunter.

“Oh, it’s Goeuljida!”

“LA’s hero is here to save us!”

“Juseah’s successor!”

Now, it was said that there were almost no Korean citizens who did not know Go Eul-ji’s face. Her fame was also quite widely known abroad.

Her video that spread through social media during the LA incident warmed the hearts of many people. This is because the video alone showed her as a hero who did her best to save people.

As death grew distant, people waved as if they were attending a fan meeting with a superstar.

“Whoa! Sister!!”

“Hey, doesn’t it seem like your older sister is older than me?”

For Go Eul-ji, who has been a fan of idols all her life, being the subject of such cheers was an extremely embarrassing situation.

When I was at a loss as to what to do, I heard a lion’s roar from the port where the cable car was connected.

“Goeulji! How long are you going to keep yapping?! When you have time, clean up the inside of the city!”

Go Eul-ji, who came to her senses suddenly at Joo Se-ah’s shouting, ripped the entire cable car from the rope and flew it toward downtown Yeosu, landing it safely on the ground. She evacuated the people while also detecting the Nagas and starting to hunt them.

While Goeulji saved the people in danger, Joo Se-ah fought directly in battle.

‘Let’s leave the ones who entered the city to the guild here. If we search for them one by one and catch them, we won’t get any answers. Instead, I’ll cut off the follow-up troops.’

Yeosu had not yet established a defensive line along the coast.

Just like Busan, they were completely unprepared for attacks from sea monsters.

In fact, even if Kang Mu-hyeok had been in Yeosu, it would have been difficult to respond. Except for large cities, there was a significant lack of Hunter power to completely block the coastline.

In that respect, the joining of Joo Se-ah and Go Eul-ji was like a match made in heaven.

Joo Sea jumped into the group of Nagas that had come up to the dock. Before the Nagas could even sense the presence of their enemies, their heads exploded. They ran along the shoreline, swinging their fists left and right without stopping. The monsters’ green blood decorated the air like firecrackers.

One breath in, one breath out. In that short time, the entire Naga horde that had been on the ground was wiped out.

However, there were still many nagas swimming with their upper bodies exposed above the sea.

Jusea felt that there were more Nagas approaching from underwater than on the surface. The Nagas were cleverly spreading out in all directions to avoid Jusea.

‘I can’t stop it all.’

She was a tank. She had achieved S-rank and acquired the strength to destroy mountains, but tanks were hunters specialized in single-person combat.

Although there were occasional cases where it was able to attract the attention of tens or hundreds of people, this ability was limited to a narrow space.

“That doesn’t mean there is no way at all.”

Joo Seah pulled out the sword she was carrying on her back.

Just like that.

It was a rare, top-tier weapon that could be used between a sword and a spear.

It was a weapon that Kang Mu-hyeok stole from the secret safe of the Baekho Guild and ended up in Joo Se-ah’s hands, but in reality, it was a bit lacking for an S-rank to use.

‘It’s a bit unfortunate, but there’s nothing I can do about it. Angerbadil is currently undergoing maintenance.’

In order to be in the hands of an S-rank hunter, it would have to be at least a unique-grade sword, but unfortunately, Angerbadil had been sent to have his sword repaired after being damaged in the battle with Illusion.

Of course, just because it was a rare grade, it didn’t mean that Joo Seah couldn’t use it at all.

Although not as good as Jang Deuk-gu, the Weapon Master who could draw out the maximum potential of weapons, Joo Se-ah was the one who learned various weapon techniques from him.

As soon as I decided to use the sword, A Ruin stuck to my hand like a charm.

Joo Seah muttered as she looked at the sea filled with the pier.

“I think I should write a little more broadly this time.”

【Changhwa】

The blade of the Mak A Ruin’s sword, which was in the shape of a long, deformed sword, split open and another blade emerged. The existing blades were pushed back and merged together to form a spear that did not cut the hand.

【Gigas Manus】

Joo Seah swung her spear. Her sword, or rather her spear strike, split the coastline.

During that day, hundreds of Nagas that were above the sea surface were wiped out. The sea parted like the Red Sea. The Nagas that were swimming were also washed away.

The sea water where the giant’s spear passed began to boil. The Nagas who barely escaped the spear writhed in the sudden fever. The Nagas who had come after were startled and retreated.

But the giant’s spear swept through the place where the rearguard had been once again, and all the nagas and fish there were swept away.

Joo Se-ah, who had killed most of the Nagas in the sea off Yeosu with just two slashes of the spear, rested the spear on his shoulder and let out a long breath.

“As expected, the efficiency is too low.”

Although she was able to eliminate the four-digit Naga in one breath, the mana that went into it was enough to make even her, an S-rank, sigh.

Gigas Manus is a skill created with boss monsters or the same S-rank in mind.

Of course, it was a single attack aircraft.

Since I swung it around like a wide-area weapon, the efficiency was bound to be extremely bad.

“Coming again?”

This time it was a tsunami. The Nagas changed their tactics.

Nagas were able to use a special skill that allowed them to emit sound waves underwater. These sound waves would resonate with hundreds or thousands of them to create tidal waves, and the Nagas would ride this tidal wave to quickly dig deep into the land and attack.

The Nagas were riding on a huge wave that seemed like it would engulf the entire city of Yeosu. Even Joo Se-ah couldn’t stop the entire city by herself.

If tens of thousands of monsters were rushing at him, he would be confident that he could kill them all. It seemed that he was trying to avoid a direct confrontation with the Nagas and target weak prey.

“I guess I should leave this to the experts?”

“Goeulji? I’ll give you 3 seconds. Come here. I’ll give you 10 rounds of sparring.”

Joo Se Ah put her hand to her ear and called Go Eul Ji through the communicator.

Before two seconds had passed, Goeulji had come flying in. A sonic boom blew behind her. The wind blew Joo Se Ah’s hair and Goeulji landed.

“Yep! Here we go! It hasn’t even been 3 seconds yet, right?”

“Okay. 10 deductions.”

“It felt like it was one second faster… . 20 more times, how could that not work?”

Joo Se Ah looked at Go Eul Ji.

Shudder.

Goeulji shrugged his shoulders.

Instead of nagging, Joo Se-ah pointed to the tsunami that was crashing down on Yeosu.

“That one. Don’t let the waves touch here. If you don’t let the Naga guys come up, I’ll deduct all the sparring points.”

“Yoooooh! I’m so motivated!”

Goeulji flew into the air. She looked at the Nagas who were coming in like surfers riding the tidal wave.

“Your misfortune is my happiness. Huh? Wait a minute. Is that something that Dalian Cha-gam would really like? If it weren’t for you guys, I wouldn’t have come here in the first place, right? Whoa! I’m so angry!”

The playful shouting of Goeulji expanded the cognitive domain.

It was a training that started under the pretext of finding landmines buried in the ground during the Orc Wars. It was a training to feel and control the space that one had set and recognized.

Half of it started as Kang Mu-hyeok’s manpower redeployment to recover landmines, and the other half started as Joo Se-ah’s playful way to tame Go-eul-ji. However, after experiencing several battles starting with the Sinuiju Incident, Go-eul-ji ended up discovering a new way to use telekinesis.

The moment when Goeulji finally realizes the tsunami that will cover the entire Yeosu.

The tsunami has stopped.

Joo Se Ah, who was watching that scene, got goosebumps for a moment.

‘When did that guy get so big?’

Joo Se Ah was certain that Go Eul Ji had reached A+ rank. The form in which he used his power was not something that had been raised for a day or two. What was more surprising was that Go Eul Ji had been hiding his level from even her.

There were things that Joo Se Ah didn’t look into openly, but Go Eul Ji was that good at deceiving people about his rank.

Go Eul-ji, who could deceive even the discerning eyes of an S-rank, was truly a genius.

Meanwhile, Go Eul Ji was paying more attention to Joo Se Ah than Naga.

‘Oh my. I was so excited that I exerted all my strength!’

I was hiding my rank up like that.

‘If I get older, I’ll train harder, right?’

Any hunter would want to receive S-rank instruction, but for Go Eul-ji, who had trained without freedom since childhood, it was not something he wanted at all.

I wanted to avoid training at all costs. I’m barely holding on now, and now I’m going to receive even more training?

‘That just won’t do!’

To achieve this, I honed my ‘playing dead’ skill, living and dying.

I was just happy about the discount on Dalian, but I got caught.

“Damn it! It’s all your fault!”

A dragonfly was stuck in Goeulji’s hair. The waves that started from the parted hair flew towards the tsunami.

The sea water fell down. The nagas inside were still floating.

As a flash of light passed through Goeulji’s eyes, thousands of Nagas flew into the sea in front of the port.

The Nagas were entangled together and screaming. They were struggling in the air, causing scratches on each other’s bodies.

Blood flowed from Goeulji’s nose. Even with Yongrinjam’s help, it was not easy to restrain the actions of thousands of Nagas.

match!

At that moment, her two palms collided.

【cymbals】

Oh my!

A huge pressure was applied from both sides by the gathered Nagas. The Nagas on the outskirts were reduced to blood clots. The Nagas on the inside were also greatly shocked.

With the second applause, the next row of Nagas became rat-like, and with the third applause, the next row and some of the Nagas stuck here and there were crushed to death, spitting out blood.

Goeulji also continued to applaud while bleeding from the nose. When the resistance of the Nagas was useless, they launched a sound wave attack and caused a ruckus. As a result, a spectacle of them killing each other unfolded.

It was a sight so gruesome that even a monster would turn its head away.

But Goeulji didn’t even look at him and just clapped his hands indifferently.

Only after clapping his hands more than twenty times did Goeulji stop clapping.

“Coolook!”

As soon as he spat out a bloody cough, the Nagas floating in the air fell with a thud. No, the Nagas that were there fell.

Organic matter that had become mushy and unrecognizable covered the sea off Yeosu.

The town fell straight into the sea.

Joo Se Ah, who had been watching from below, jumped into the sea. After receiving the goulji, she kicked the sea surface and came back up to land.

Joo Se Ah looked down at Go Eul Ji in her arms and smiled.

“great job.”

Goeulji said with a faint smile.

“T, one week of training is out… Whew!”

And then just passed out.

Joo Se Ah let out a hollow laugh because she was so dumbfounded.

“Oh my god, this is really… … .”
