The Heavenly Demon Can't Live Ordinarily - Episode 469
469angry new beginning (2)
It was a leisurely walk.
As if he were taking a walk, Roman Dmitry walked forward and picked up a branch he could see..
‘It's the same as back then.’
life just before.
When he started his new life as Roman Dmitri, he encountered the Blood Fangs and slaughtered them all with a single branch..
The identity of life has not changed.
Do not avoid the hostility you face. I can easily kill soldier ants with my bare hands, but now I wanted to relive those memories..
Crackling.
The soldier ants lifted their chins wildly..
All I can see are five.
There are three things running through the tunnel.
I was calm.
As I watched Kang Min-ho's battle to gain information, I knew what kind of beings they were..
Compared to the monsters we have faced countless times in the demon world, they are not even close to our toes..
Roman Dmitry walked without hesitation against uncivilized creatures who could not recognize a predator in front of them..
Kang Min-ho opened his eyes wide..
For him who does not know the truth, the clash between a human and a monster foretells a terrible ending..
however.
flash.
Kieeeeek.
one flash.
The limbs of the soldier ants charging at the front were torn off..
Kang Min-ho's great sword had a hard shell that was nothing special, but as soon as it touched the tree branch, dark red blood spurted out as if the head had been cut..
It was an instant for the three soldier ants to die..
As the soldier ants collapsed in front of him, Roman Dmitry immediately blew off the heads of the remaining two..
Phuwak.
blood splattered.
10candle?
No, it didn't even take 5 seconds..
As soon as all the visible soldier ants were taken care of, the ground shook and the beings we had already identified suddenly broke through the ground..
They probably had their own plans. They tried to attack humans simultaneously using underground tunnels, but as soon as they raised their heads, they were faced with a hopeless reality..
Kwasik.
puck.
I trampled on his head..
The head was shattered by the mana-filled blow, and the other two froze in the same posture they were about to attack, as if they were terrified..
Soldier ants are creatures of very low intelligence. They blindly fulfill the roles assigned to them from birth, and there is no known case of them retreating from the battlefield..
Those soldier ants.
I lost my will to fight.
They realized just how powerful a predator Roman Dmitry was, to the point where they forgot the role imprinted in their DNA. And a moment's hesitation meant death.
Roman Dmitry trampled on the corpses scattered on the floor and cut off the head of the soldier ant..
Suddenly.
patter.
heads falling to the floor.
It was over.
When I threw the branch on the floor and looked back, I saw Kang Min-ho's face stained with astonishment..
“……Oh, how on earth.”
a series of circumstances.
It was a shocking sight that Kang Min-ho could not understand with his common sense and that he could not believe even when he saw it in person..
* * *
When Roman Dmitry picked up a branch.
Kang Min-ho was in despair..
As expected, I thought he was mentally ill and that I needed to find another way to survive here..
But there wasn't long time to think.
It's not that there is nothing that comes to mind in a desperate situation, but the sight of the soldier ants being torn apart before they can even think about anything caught my attention..
“……and.”
I was astonished.
I couldn't believe it.
Roman Dmitry's Weapons.
It was just a twig.
The tree branch, which broke helplessly when struck on the ground and cannot even be described with words or weapons, lightly tore the solid outer shell of the soldier ant..
It felt like my thinking circuit had completely stopped. All the soldier ants were slaughtered while they watched with their mouths wide open at a sight that went beyond common sense..
“……Oh, how on earth.”
Then I realized.
Mana Meter Results.
The enemy is not an immeasurably weak person, but an immeasurably strong person..
‘If that's the case, it means that he's a B grade or higher. To meet a peak-level hunter in a place like this?.’
Hunter's level is universal..
Except for the highest grade, S, it is divided into grades from A to F, and the grades are expressed differently in Korea..
The lowest grade, F, is a trainee hunter, the E grade, which Kang Min-ho currently belongs to, is an ordinary hunter, grades D to C with skilled weapons are special hunters, and grades B to A are known to receive VIP captains anywhere in the world. It was called the peak hunter..
The last S grade is.
It was the hero stage..
In Korea, the white-robed wizard is the only one to be officially recognized with the title of hero hunter..
‘I heard it through rumors. It is said that peak hunters are completely different from ordinary hunters. I understand that all hunters of grade B or higher in Korea usually work in shelters, but why on earth is that person wandering around here? And no matter how much of a hunter you are, it would be impossible to cut off the hard outer shell of a soldier ant with a single twig. Are you a ancestor or a chosen one?.’
my heart was racing.
Hunter.
When ordinary people go through a stage called awakening, they can use special powers. Among these hunters, very special beings were the successors and the chosen ones..
Unlike ordinary hunters who become stronger through the game system, they showed overwhelming power in their own special way..
of the world 0.01%.
A blessing available only to a few.
According to Kang Min-ho's common sense, Roman Dmitry's overwhelming power could not be explained by anyone other than that type..
‘this is an opportunity.’
Kang Min-ho was a typical ordinary hunter..
A common hunter who has no special abilities and has very low growth potential due to his late awakening period..
For Kang Min-ho, being able to form a relationship with a hunter of the highest level or higher was a tremendous opportunity..
At first, he didn't understand why someone who looked like an ordinary person was wandering around here, but anyway, the other person told him to help him for 'one month'..
perhaps.
I could have used this opportunity to find a way to become stronger..
Some may call me an opportunist, but I had to take the opportunity to enter the shelter with my daughter..
It was then.
“Why are you so mesmerized??”
I woke up to the sound of a voice piercing my ears..
Kang Min-ho hurriedly lowered his head..
“thank you. Thanks to you, we overcame the crisis. As promised, I will take responsibility and help you with everything you need for a month..”
* * *
There was no reason to remain in the hunting grounds anymore..
The two walked away.
On the way back to the protected area, Kang Min-ho used his interpretation magic again to explain various things..
“Since you asked me to explain from the basics, I will tell you the starting point. The apocalypse began 20 years ago when a being who described himself as the Absolute appeared. The Absolute predicted ten future catastrophes and said that if all of them were prevented, he would preserve the world. The existence of the Absolute is still a mystery, but since the attacks of monsters called the Apocalypse began, hunters using special powers have appeared. As you know, hunters become stronger through rewards given by unknown beings like the 'game system', and with the advent of hunters, people gained the strength to fight against the apocalypse. but… … The world has been devastated by a catastrophe that has occurred five times now. We somehow managed to stop the attack, but it was impossible to fully protect the city..”
5apocalypse.
It was literally a miserable reality..
Every time a catastrophe overflows with monsters occurs throughout the world, the city that people worked hard to build collapses and countless people die..
The cycle of cataclysms was irregular. As many years have passed since the end of the fifth apocalypse, people have recently become anxious that a sixth apocalypse may come..
and.
“People formed shelters to protect themselves from the apocalypse. Powerful countries such as the United States have succeeded in turning each city into a shelter, but in South Korea, the rate of awakened people has dropped significantly, so there are no shelters except for the capital, Seoul. Naturally, the shelter could not accommodate all the citizens of the Republic of Korea, and we were refused entry into the shelter and are now living in what is called a safe area. The place we are guiding you to now is the safe area..”
Kang Min-ho smiled bitterly..
safe area.
As just explained, the safe area was a pattern-only safe area..
Although it was not completely exposed to monsters like an unprotected area, the peak hunters and above, who can be said to be the core force of this country, gathered around the shelter when the apocalypse came..
After ensuring the safety of the people in the shelter as a top priority, we moved down from the capital and cleared out the monsters..
blast furnace.
Entering the shelter was everyone’s dream..
The reason Kang Min-ho went hunting so quickly was to enter the shelter with his only daughter..
The explanation continued.
Kang Min-ho couldn't understand why the peak hunter was listening to this explanation, but he still asked for an explanation, so he complied without any hesitation..
The other person is a being who may become a companion of one's life. Regardless of the realm of nonsensical and common sense, I wanted to use this relationship as an opportunity to somehow form a network with a peak hunter..
How long did you walk?.
finally reached the destination.
Kang Min-ho said with a complicated expression while looking at a building with a castle wall like in the Middle Ages..
“It's here. Incheon is one of the safe regions in Korea..”
* * *
each city.
South Korea has formed a safe zone.
Seoul is the only place officially named a shelter, but Incheon also has a system in place to protect people..
After the apocalypse.
80% of Incheon was classified as unprotected area.
A safe area was formed in the remaining land, and once inside the walls, a city where people lived unfolded..
The onset of the apocalypse did not mean that the social system completely collapsed..
Workers were still put into the field, people enjoyed their daily lives such as walking and using the Internet, and government-managed supermarkets sold goods at reasonable prices so that people would not be confused..
At least within the safe area, an environment has been created so that people can live the same life as they did 20 years ago as much as possible..
peace in chaos.
It was the reality of a new world.
Roman Dmitry, who entered the city through Kang Min-ho's guarantee, followed his guidance and arrived at his current residence, a small villa..
“You can stay here from now on. If you need anything…….”
“dad!”
was a girl.
When his daughter Kang Min-ah, now 12 years old, saw her father and ran to her, Kang Min-ho hurriedly snatched her and took her to her room..
“It's Min. I'm sorry, let's talk later..”
“too bad!”
The reunion was short..
Kang Min-ho, who had barely dropped his daughter off, said to Roman Dmitry while wiping his sweat..
“Please let me know if you need anything in the future. And how do we dispose of the by-products of soldier ants? First of all, I took care of it, but it is quite expensive, so please tell me what to do and I will take care of it..”
“How much is it worth compared to the interpretation magic scroll??”
“There's enough to buy dozens of. The price of by-products from grade D monsters is considerable, and since you have dealt with as many as eight soldier ants, you will be able to receive a considerable amount of money..”
“Then you take care of it. If you say it right, it will help you with your expenses while you are here..”
“All right.”
It was a strange relationship.
Roman Dmitry said:.
Kang Min-ho is respected.
We naturally accepted each other.
With just one battle, they established their relationship with each other..
Roman Dmitry said.
“And I have something to tell you in advance..”
“please speak.”
“You said I was a peak-level hunter. If I am a rare being in this world, you will report my existence to the higher-ups according to the reporting system here. I won't particularly hold back on that. Since you guaranteed my presence during the process of entering the city, it would already be impossible to hide my whereabouts..”
Moment.
My heart sank..
Not paying attention to Kang Min-ho's reaction, Roman Dmitry added:.
“tell them one month. Don't approach me in there. If you try to do something to me hastily, I can't guarantee what will happen after that..”
* * *
Kang Min-ho went outside with his daughter..
I was planning to leave my daughter with my cousin for the time being, but Roman Dmitry's remarks still gave me goosebumps..
‘I'm only limited by language, but I fully understand the system here..’
It was as he expected..
Roman Dmitry.
Unidentified person.
An unknown person entered the safe area, and I, who had secured his identity, had to report it to the government..
‘What would happen if the Incheon government found out about the existence of the peak hunter?.’
I swear.
There will be chaos.
In a situation where all talented people were concentrated in Seoul, the existence of a peak hunter who appeared to be independent was an issue that not only the Incheon government but also the hunter guilds in Korea were drooling over..
You will probably have a hectic day for the next month. To the people who recruit the peak hunter, you will be seen as someone related to him..
but.
It was worth it.
Kang Min-ho hoped to somehow continue his relationship with Roman Dmitry..
30minutes later.
Kang Min-ho, who entrusted his daughter to his care, contacted the Incheon government..
“I'll come see you now. I have a report to tell you about an unidentified person I vouched for..”
