-12 Episode 9

I immediately recognized the fact that Jung Daesik was a bit different from the average hunter.

Hunters in general were similar to Choi Hee herself. Those who find the joy of life by getting stronger and the joy of life by defeating monsters.

But it wasn't Jung Daesik.

He became strong even though he wasn't obsessed with strength, and he seemed to have a goal that others didn't know about.

I didn't know what it was, so I've always wondered, was it money in the end?

It cannot be said that it is wrong, but it was not suitable for discussing the fate of the world.

To be honest, it was incredibly snobbish.

But what Jung Daesik pointed out was very correct.

Choi Hee admitted to the fact that she expected him to come forward and do something.

He treated him as an unpaid hero.

Thinking it was wrong, Choi Hee nodded her head.

"100 trillion won is a lot of money, but I don't know if the government will accept your terms."

"If it's 100 trillion won to save the world, it's incredibly cheap. I wanted to call it more. But after this war is over, the reconstruction will cost a lot of money, so I put up with it."

"......"

Choi Hee shrugged her shoulders as if she had nothing more to say and left.

Kang Young-hoo also gave him a light glance and walked away, and Kim Seung-soo and Park Hee-jin passed Jung Daesik as if they were trash in the world.

All that was left was someone Jung Daesik didn't know, and he didn't say a word during the meeting. Then he suddenly came up to Jung Daesik and said,

"I can afford about one of them."

"Yes?"

“I can only afford one.”

"...isn't there a need for that?"

“I think of it as a donation.”

He said something like that and went away.

Confused, Jung Daesik turned to Entropy, who was quietly standing behind him.

When I went to a place with few people, entropy spoke to me.

Jung Daesik nodded his head.

"To reach level 10, exactly 401 trillion won is not enough. There's no time for hunting, so we asked for the fastest way to replenish it."

“It’s something you have to do.”

Jung Daesik had a late meal at the canteen.

He was always prepared and served by brave volunteers, so he could go and eat at any time.

Jung Daesik was eating in the barracks when someone suddenly appeared.

The opponent was none other than Hanna Jang.

Without saying a word from her, she slumped over to the seat opposite her, then sat cross-legged with her long legs, folded her arms and opened her mouth.

She said, "She told me she was asking for her remuneration."

Jung Daesik said after slurping her seaweed soup.

"Yes. Any problem?"

Hanna Jang frowned as if asking because she didn't know.

"Don't you think 100 trillion per animal is too much? Are you talking about how much money that is?"

Jung Daesik shrugged her shoulders, and Hanna Jang raised her voice to hear whoever was around her.

“Hey, Jung Daesik. You are the only all-in-one in the world. You are responsible for your power. Why do you think God sent you down? Isn't that right? So the current situation is Jung Daesik's job!"

Jung Daesik cut off the lengthy words Hanna Jang made and brought out the main point.

"100 trillion won per animal, in cash, must be paid in advance."

Hanna Jang was the flagship of her nonsense.

"Are you sane? You want me to suddenly make that amount of money and deposit it? Do you have a bankbook that holds that amount of money?"

"For reference, I'm requesting per animal. The more money you deposit, the more monsters you can defeat."

Jang Han-na bit her lip, she said.

"That's what you meant when you said you were saving the world."

"You must have heard it. Yes, that's right. I didn't say that I was only looking for Korea. If anyone pays for it, I will fly away and kill the monsters."

The Korean Peninsula may not be the only place in the world that is facing a national disaster now and has a foreboding of national collapse as well as the destruction of the world.

America, China, Europe, West Asia, Africa, etc... The whole world must have been shocked by the powerful monsters overflowing everywhere.

So Jung Daesik could claim against all those countries.

"I don't know exactly how many monsters that are at least 18-star or higher surrounding Seoul, but I understand that it's difficult to raise enough cash right away. It's even more so when there's a riot like this. Countries with capital will be able to afford it. Tell them I'm coming and bring in the money. All I have to do is put the amount on my bank account, that is, on the computer."

Hanna Jang felt Jung Daesik's words were a bit strange. But I couldn't pinpoint exactly what was strange.

Instead, she thought Jung Daesik's demands weren't so outrageous.

Jang Hanna immediately got up from her seat and said.

"I understand your requirements. For now, please wait."

She left the canteen and Jung Daesik finished eating. After she was full, she took a little walk to digest and looked at the atmosphere.

Awakened people gathered together to defend Seoul looked cluttered. Gye-Young Il still controlled the information, but she thought she could not hide the fact that the monsters were gathering around Seoul.

"Did you hear that Seoul was under siege?"

"Then the reason you've been quiet until now wasn't because of the MFP?"

"What kind of power would such a poor looking machine have? Nuclear weapons are of no use to them."

"It's crazy to hear that all the monsters are flocking to you."

"Aren't we all in the stomach of a monster tomorrow?"

While walking in the middle of joking around to forget his anxiety, Jung Daesik saw Gwangpil-doo training his body in a corner of the children's park.

Surprisingly, there was Ki Cheol-min by his side.

Ki Chul-min was talking to Gwang Pil-doo, and he was listening to it with one ear and was pouring it out with the other.

Seeing the scene, Jung Daesik thought that it went well.

He slowly approached Gwangpil-doo, and Ki Cheol-min recognized him first and greeted him.

"Oh, boss!"

Jung Daesik looked at the Gwangpil-doo, who looked up at him and raised his body belatedly. And he took out his barding from space and threw it away.

Gwangpil-doo, who had taken it in a haphazard manner, seemed to be a bit surprised.

He opened his eyes a little wide, and Ki Chul-min, who was also startled, raised his voice and asked.

"How is it here?"

Jung Daesik didn't give a long explanation.

"Durahan is dead."

"Yes?"

Ki Chul-min seemed to be quite shocked. Jung Daesik continued.

"Russia seems to have fallen into the hands of monsters. Durahhan, who resisted to the end, was said to have been defeated to protect the refugees. Before he died, he sent his men and entrusted this to me."

Gwang Pil-doo touched his barding with a strange expression.

He just felt weird.

He went to get it and encountered Jung Daesik and was defeated.

As a result, he lost all the 7-star weapons, and after many twists and turns, he got the 7-star weapons again, but only Bara Gap was not there.

However, due to Durahan's death, he was able to touch it.

Ki Cheol-min remembered the dead for a moment and had a gloomy expression on his face. And then he said with a look of concern.

"Is it okay to give this to Gwangpil-doo? Then the 7-star weapons will be gathered in one place..."

Jung Daesik asserted.

“Regardless of whether the 7-star weapon is complete or not, he can’t break my will. Above all, a guy with a brain wouldn’t want to do anything absurd in this kind of situation. Because it will work. And......"Jung Daesik narrowed his eyes and glanced at the lighthead. It was a kind of provocation.

“There is no guarantee that the 7-star weapon will always evolve.”

Kwang Pil-doo was silent, and Jung Daesik turned his gaze to Ki Chul-min.

"It's the same with you."

"Yes?"

When Ki Chul-min asked, bewildered, Jung Daesik said.

"Evolution of the Tyrbringer you have is not finished."

Ki Cheol-min opened his mouth blankly as if he had not expected it at all, and then he hurriedly asked a question.

"But the Tyrbringer has a broken blade that makes it unusable. Didn't Chernobog completely destroy it, you know?"

"Well......."

To Jung Daesik, the condition of the Tyrbringer with only the handle left was a bit strange.

If Tyrbringer was a weapon that could evolve to a goddess level, it could not be broken so easily.

A goddess-class weapon means power that transcends time and space.

No matter how hard he stepped on Chernobog's foot and crashed into Gungnir, the handle was still intact, and it didn't look like it was broken.

As you will see for sure with the upgraded Emotion skill, the Tyrbringer is now a weapon out of Jung Daesik's hands.

Jung Daesik left the room alone, thinking that Ki Chul-min would be able to solve it on his own.

"If it's really a goddess-class weapon, it can never be destroyed. Actually, the blade is just broken, other than that, everything is fine."

Ki Chul-min gave a sullen expression on his face, and Jung Daesik left the place.

I don't know what kind of result Jang Hanna will bring, but I hoped that Gwangpil-doo and Ki Cheol-min would evolve before the monsters that said they were besieging Seoul started.

* * *

Jang Han-na couldn't say that she was a character I liked very much.

She said she had something she did in Las Vegas because of her, so no matter how many times she had slept with her, it was difficult for her to look good.

But she was a resourceful woman as long as she had held Jung Daesik for a long time. She doesn't know exactly where she is and what she does with how many positions she has, but she has the ability to bring what Jung Daesik is asking for.

Jung Daesik, who had been doing basic strength training at the gym for a long time, saw Hanna Jang appear at her entrance.

She walked over to Jung Daesik and held out a package of thick contracts.

"It's a contract you have to sign," she said.

"okay?"

Hanna Jang briefly explained as she took it and turned her pages.

"A total of five copies. If you sign it, 500 trillion won will be deposited immediately. This is exactly the same as the number of monsters over 15 stars besieging Seoul."

"Do you think you've figured out their identities?"

“As a result of looking at them with the help of a clairvoyant, they are located in the directions of Uijeongbu, Guri, Seongnam, Gwacheon, and Bucheon. Judging from the looks of them, their individuality is not inferior. Better sign them before they enter Seoul."
