Chapter 153

Gulp─

The rescue team was peering inside from behind the torn off door.

It is said that there are as many as 100 demons inside.

‘Junior… Is it really okay…?’

It was Lim Ga-eul who had been conquering various dungeons with Jin Yu-ha.

I haven’t really seen his skills yet.

That’s right, Utopia has always been run by parties.

She assists all party members, and Yuri Lee, the tank, provokes monsters. Next, Kang Do-hee, the main dealer, comes forward. And Jin Yu-ha organizes those she missed.

Because it was his job to give orders to all party members, it was rare to see him fighting alone.

Since he was thrown alone into a group of vicious demons, it is natural to be worried.

However, as a mere cadet, she could not blindly oppose the strategy planned by her academy instructor.

Jin Yuha also nodded her head as if it was natural.

And her worries were for naught.

Jin Yuha began to stir up that group of demons alone.

“Kwaaak!”

“Wha!?”

“Ahh!!”

Red blood poured out and the demons let out boiling screams.

Gulp.

Dry saliva ran down the back of Lim Ga-eul’s neck.

‘This is my junior when I showed my sincerity…’

Overwhelming.

Cruel and cruel.

There is not a single trace of mercy in the sword he wields.

Of course, this is not the first time I have witnessed Jin Yu-ha’s murder.

Although she did not participate in the first-year midterm evaluation, she had some unique experience.

What Gaeul Lim remembered was when she was going through the Thorn Meadow dungeon the other day.

When the Darkness Guild party led monsters and attacked Utopia.

Because the Utopia party ran away, leaving them among the monsters.

That is also indirect murder.

But at the time, it was okay because there was a justification and it was not something I did myself.

But the way Jin Yuha shows her now is on a completely different level from the pressure she felt back then.

‘I, I’m okay… Originally, Hunter knew this was happening.’

Even though she was in last place for a year, Gaeul Lim is still a sophomore.

It means that you have learned enough to roughly understand what it means to be a hunter.

Of course, it was her first time experiencing something so explicit, so she couldn’t help her hands vibrating uncontrollably.

Lim Ga-eul, who was watching the battle taking place inside with her trembling eyes, slowly turned her head to her side.

Then the instructor raises the corner of his mouth faintly, as if he can’t see it.

Even so, this person is already a worn-out academy instructor.

However, what I am worried about is Sophia.

It must be a shocking scene for this child who has just entered this world.

However, Sofia lowered the camera she had raised with a calm expression.

“······Oh, I can’t use this as a video right now. “You’re so cool right now…!!”

Rather, Sophia closed her mouth again, as if she was disappointed that she could not reveal this scene.

How is this possible?

‘W-Isn’t it scary? What about him?’

Im Ga-eul felt absurd.

“Junior Sophia, are you okay?”

“Yes? “What is it?”

“Yu, are you okay with seeing junior Yuha like that? Of course, I’m okay with it!! Huh, I thought it might be a bit cruel for my juniors to see…”

“Is there anything you wouldn’t be okay with?”

Sophia tilted her head as if she still didn’t understand what was being said.

“Even in the mid-term evaluation, Jin Yu-ha killed the demons. “There is no difference between then and now.”

“······No, aren’t you surprised?”

“Hmm, I was surprised when I first saw him during the mid-term evaluation, but if it wasn’t for Jin Yu-ha, all the cadets would have died.”

Sophia’s clear golden eyes looked straight at Lim Ga-eul.

“In the end, this is what a hunter is called. “I accepted it all.”

There was not a single hesitation in Sophia’s voice as she said that.

“Even now, those demons are imprisoning civilians in dungeons and treating their lives like trash. And that could have been my mother or father. But, wouldn’t it be really wrong for me, who decided to fight alongside such a person, to turn a blind eye or close my eyes?”

“······.”

“And please watch the original hardcore gore.”

Sofia added with a slight smile.

Im Ga-eul tried to open her mouth further, but then closed it.

And then I sighed deeply.

‘Better than me…’

Perhaps the person with the weakest heart in Utopia is himself.

Baek Seol-hee, who glanced at the conversation between the two, fixed her gaze forward again.

‘The guy who came in this time is okay. And this guy is still there. His heart is weak compared to his abilities.’

But this was not something that could be said separately.

In the end, breaking the egg and getting out was something I had to do myself.

The general public used to think that hunters were cool and dazzling jobs that involved killing monsters and saving people.

The statement itself makes sense.

In fact, top hunters earn money that ordinary people cannot imagine, and they are treated and envied that much.

However, from the perspective of Baek Seol-hee, who acts as the leader of the Majin Killing Squad, these words make one scoff.

From Noble mtl dot com

I can only say this because I don’t know how many hunters are eaten by monsters, killed by demons, and sacrificed by fellow hunters every year.

And the number of hunters who suffered mental trauma while going into battle and never recovered and retired was twice that number.

However, her own disciple.

Jin Yuha was perfect in that respect.

Look at it even now.

Wide field of vision encompassing the entire front. Efficient movement to accomplish a goal. And a sword that does not waver even in the face of countless enemies.

Of course, these are also factors that make Jin Yuha highly regarded,

There was something else that Baek Seol-hee was more excited about.

That is mental strength.

When Baek Seol-hee first taught Jin Yu-ha, she taught him to live first.

Afterwards, when the Utopia Party was founded and Jin Yu-ha began to make his name known to the world by showing outstanding achievements.

Other instructors came to Baek Seol-hee and asked how she taught Jin Yu-ha.

And with a proud heart, she demonstrated her own teaching method to them without hesitation.

What were the instructors’ expressions like at that time?

An expression as if looking at a madman.

‘I know you’re a butcher maniac, but that’s not it. ‘Among the cadets who have just entered school, there is no one who can withstand such crazy training,’ she said, raising her voice as if telling her not to joke.

I was even advised to think about what would have happened if I had received that kind of training when I was that age.

At that time, the shock Baek Seol-hee felt was considerable.

‘······Yes, I guess I couldn’t have endured it.’

Yes, it was possible because even he had accumulated some experience.

However, since she first accepted her cadets as her students, she ended up teaching her Jin Yuha in the way she is now familiar with.

In other words, the eye level was wrong from the beginning!

So she changed her mind and lowered the intensity of her training.

─ Why are you like that today!! Master!

Jin Yu-ha, who usually followed without a single protest, reacted violently as if asking where he had gone.

─ The training was too early for you.

─ Did I do something wrong?@@novelbin@@

─ No, I just felt that this training was still too early for you.

─ I must become stronger. Master! Please keep doing it the way it was!

─ If this gets weird, you might break down.

─ No. I am not broken. Please trust me. You are welcome to try it!!

Baek Seol-hee had no choice but to give him a test as he spoke with clear black eyes.

Jin Yuha seemed to have passed all the tests.

A test so brutal that even experienced demon slaying members only pass half of it.

‘I took a hit.’

Baek Seol-hee burst into laughter.

Honestly, I still can’t believe how that is possible at such a young age.

Usually, doing something like this is bound to break down a little bit, but Jin Yu-ha’s spirit was as strong as an iron fortress.

‘The reason I gave in to anger before was because I was angry at the damage suffered by her colleague. This is actually an advantage because it allows you to separate the mindset towards your allies and the mindset towards your enemies.’

And now that I realize it, I probably won’t make that mistake again.

It was perfect, with no point to point out who raised it.

‘Hmm, now that I think about it, you said you would treat me to a dish you made yourself the other day. I’m looking forward to that time.’

Kwahah Ahhhhh!

Jin Yu-ha, who was fighting with the demons, suddenly broke her floor, raising a cloud of dust.

Baek Seol-hee, who realized that this was the signal to enter, opened her mouth.

“Then, let’s go.”

“······Yes.”

“Yes!”

Baek Seol-hee led Lim Ga-eul and Sophia into the building.

Jin Yu-ha drew her attention in front of her and even made her smoke up, so it was much easier for her to hide.

“You, you m—!”

Seogeuk─

However, due to Lim Ga-eul and Sophia not being used to hiding yet, they were caught by demons.

Baek Seol-hee silenced them with a single blow.

‘The road to the underground is… ‘It’s over there.’

Tata tatak─

She quickly ran towards the basement.

In the meantime, the demons below heard the commotion from above and came up.

Baek Seol-hee swung her sword without changing her expression.

Seogeuk─

Seogeuk─

Seogeuk─

A sword that is short and concise enough to give you goosebumps.

The running speed did not decrease at all and the enemies fell on the spot, clutching their necks.

Let’s go down the stairs and turn dozens of demons into corpses.

I was able to see the basement right in front of me.

Open door.

Lim Ga-eul and Sofia both sighed at the sight inside.

A foul odor that stings your nose.

A dirty landscape reminiscent of a pig pen infested with flies.

Countless people were gathered on both sides, their skin and bones close together.

And in the middle of it all, a huge black magic stone was floating in the air.

“Okay… It was here, after all. “They were kidnapping humans and sending them all here.”

Baek Seol-hee looked at the entire situation and spoke in a cold voice.

Jump, jerk─

A man walked out from behind the magic stone wearing a doctor’s gown.

“Aha!? Is it really you? Butcher maniac. For some reason, ever since the commotion started from above, I had an annoying feeling…”

The owner of the voice was an American young man with pure white hair and stitch marks on his face.

He lifted his lips as if they were about to be torn apart.

“But what should I do with this? Even for you, it’s already too late, right? “The demon descent ceremony has already begun.”
