Evolution Theory of the Hunter

Chapter 101



Chapter 101

Song Han-sol?

The one that came was the blonde haired Song Han-sol wearing expensive equipment, receiving greetings from the people around him.

I previously thought that he was merely a rich familys young master but it turned out that he actually had a relatively good amount of talent for business.

Even so, to think a high schooler would already run such a large scale business.

It was probably only possible because of his familys backing but it didnt change the fact that it was impressive.

As he slowly made his way through the people bowing down to him his line of sight passed by me.

However, he just passed by, seemling not remembering our group.

Won Jong-tak who was still bowing down seemed a bit down.

I should have used this chance to get on his good side.

Is there a need to grovel so much?

You say that because you dont know. If you get on his good side you can climb to the top quickly. He actually helped contributors afterall.

What, so its like that. You were saying that he was trash just a while ago though.

Dont say anything that will get me into trouble. When did I ever say that.

Won Jong-tak hurriedly blocked my mouth. I continued talking after pushing away his hands.

In any case, I dont want to get tangled with that guy in any way. Dont try to get me involved ever again.

Why? Did something happen?

What would you do after knowing? Some shady things happened.

Well, alright. If you say so. Right. Then do you have any thoughts on joining as a contributor? The first account has $10k and I can guarantee at least 10% per year. (TLN: converted from won to US dollars 1000:1)

I dont need it so just stop.

This guy. Acting so salty. Alright, I got it. Then Im leaving. Right. It seems like the lady has some interest, could I get your contact info? Talking right now is good too.

Won Jong-tak started talking to Soo-ah. No matter how I look at it, business is not their objective.

Im not interested.

Yes? But before.

I just asked because I was curious.

Won Jong-taks face froze for a moment as Soo-ah refused coldy.

He soon returned to his usual smiling face but there was no one among our group that didnt see it.

See you next time. And think about my offer again.

The guy chased after Song Han-sols back after leaving such words.

Han Joon-suk started talking.

I was thinking that the atmosphere in here was a bit off. It turns out that there were many such people.

It was as he said.

The ones that were whispering between themselves all tagged behind Song Han-sol.

The number of hunters that were following him numbered over 20.

It seemed like there were level 2 hunters as well but the majority seemed to be level 3. They were most likely planning on clearing a level 4 dungeon with numbers.

If it was the former version of the dungeon then it may have been possible, but I was thinking that it would be a bit dangerous for this dungeon.

Not to mention he was the only one wearing level 5 equipment.

In any case, he was an incredible guy.

***

Quite a bit of time passed and it was finally our turn. My party members and I went towards the dungeon entrance.

Looking back I could see Song Han-sol reprimanding his subordinates.

Who did the time check?

I, Im sorry. Im sure the reserved time was 6 oclock but it seems I was mistaken.

So youre telling me we have to wait an entire 2 hours?

That is so.

Youre fired

Yes? B, But I was also told that it was 8?

What? Didnt you just said it was 6? Are you messing with me?

T, that is I actually heard it as 8 but because president said it was 6.

You bastards lived to that age and you cant even do this one thing properly?

Slap!

Song Han-sol slapped the subordinate in front of him.

The subordinate seemed to be in his 30s but even after being hit he did not get angry but instead got on his knees and begged for forgiveness.

Wow that person is still doing things like that.

Tell me about it. God knows why he is working under that kind of guy.

Hes probably getting that much money. Isnt money all that matters in the human world?

Edward said.

Why are you acting like a know it all after just a few days?

These clothes. If it werent for your money then I wouldnt have been able to wear them. Then I would have died. Thats the reason Im following you even while enduring this humiliation is it not? Thinking about it like that, such a scene doesnt look wrong.

Is that so.

What this guy said wasnt entirely wrong.

I am actually using money as a weapon to keep this guy under me afterall. However it didnt feel good to be treated the same as Song Han-sol.

Its not like I hit you, no?

You did.

Oh. That was before you worked under me. Youre a monster in the first place.

I think that its an excuse but abiding to the sacred contract I shall not say that out loud.

But you already said it.

I was going to say more but stopped. Since this guy was separated from his clansmen with only me to rely on I will forgive him this once.

A guy like me is merciful.

I was watching the scene going on over there like watching a strangers house burning when Won Jong-tak came out of the crowd and went towards Song Han-sol.

Somehow, I had a bad premonition.

President, I will do something about this.

Hm? Who are you?

I am Won Jong-tak. Im working as the team leader of Team 2.

What do you mean by doing something?

The one that is entering the dungeon right now is someone I know. I will go put in a good word.

Is that so? Then quickly go talk with him. I dont want to wait anymore. If it goes well, I will at least remember your name.

Thank you.

Then the guy started making his way towards me.

Ah. Damn it. I shouldnt have acted like I knew that guy.

Hey, I have a really good deal for you.

What. You bastard. I heard it all. You want us to yield our position?

Dont be so disagreeable. If you get on the presidents good side then you can become a hunter wait a minute, you were a hunter? Why are you going in here?

Why are you saying after all this time?

I looked at the guy with a dumbfounded expression.

No, in any case thats not whats important. It seems you dont realize how important this opportunity is. If you just listen to that person then you can get high level items and work as a hunter. If you just follow me I can help you. Just take my word for it.

I refuse. I dont have a single thought of doing so. Just leave. I dont even want to pretend to know you.

This cunt. Just listen when I say it nicely. Im saying this because I care for you.

His way of talking was more like an intimidation. Rather than getting angry it just seemed ridiculous.

Pft.

Soo-ah let out a laugh next to me. Won Jong-taks line of sight went to her.

Possibly because he was desperate he looked at her with sharp eyes that seemed to forget that he tried to get her number.

What is it that you find so funny?

What is the moron that cant even grasp the situation saying.

Oh boy there she goes again.

Mo, moron? Did you just swear at me?

Whos the one that swore first?

When did I swear at you?

Swearing at senior brother is the same as swearing at me you know.

Bullshit.

I separated the two who seemed to be on the verge of starting a fistfight. Soo-ah looked at me with a face full of discontent.

Even though I stood on your side hmph.

I am thankful for that. But are you going to start a fight at a place with this many people?

I got it. I will just stand still.

Yeah, thanks for listening. And you bastard. Never act like you know me. Lets not meet ever again.

Thats fine with me but concede just this once. Then Ill not talk to you.

This guy is obstinate. I do understand that it would be hard to just go back after talking big to Song Han-sol.

But thats that. I have no intention of conceding even if I die.

The Dungeon Administration Team member started talking.

Are you not going in?

No, Im going in.

Then, hope you have a fun hunt.

The entrance supervisor said so. It would have been fine if it was the leisure dungeon from before but is it alright for him to say something like that for a new dungeon with unknown dangers you might think, but it was something that is in their manual.

Hey, are you really going to come out like that?

Seueuk (TLN: sound effect for movement)

Instead of an answer I just raised my middle finger and went into the dungeon just like that.

Ssuuk (TLN: sound effect for entering a hole)

An awfully humid and hot wind blew upon entering the ominous red colored dungeon.

Urg so humid.

Soo-ah said as she tied up her hair. Edward swallowed hard at her openly revealed nape.

I put my hand on his shoulder.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

You just swallowed after looking at her right?

I, it was instinctual what do you want me to do about it.

Edward stuttered as he broke out into cold sweat.

Be satisfied with monsters. If its monster blood Ill let you have as much as you want.

I wont do something like that.

Our team set off after reminding him.

We were in a jungle with green in every direction. I walked forward while cutting the grass, branches, and bushes in the way with the Heavy Strike Longsword. (The previous translators seemed to use Longsword of Kangta but personally dont like it. I was thinking between Heavy Strike Longsword and Longsword of Hit Hard but my editor/brother said no to the latter. Tell me which one you guys like better.)

It was more of a battle with bugs than monsters.

Soo-ah unexpectedly didnt react to the bugs much. I thought that she would scream and make a fuss.

It seems youre not very scared of bugs?

I am scared though? Hella gross too.

You look calm considering.

I would if this was outside but I should endure it while working.

She was very well practiced in the ways of saying what I want to hear.

Putting that aside, I wonder if it will really be okay?

Han Joon-suk said. Probably talking about Won Jong-tak. I started talking while grinning.

Who are you worrying about?

That is well the other side of course.

Han Joon-suk said while scratching his cheek.

***

Chwaak! (TLN: sound effect for spiderman doing spiderman thing)

The spider web that Soo-ah shot tied up the Mukamuka. (TLN: the authors sense of naming is deteriorating. Press F to pay respects)

It wont be able to last very long!

Soo-ahs Spider Web Armor was a level 3 item. The amount of time it could restrain the level 4 Mukamuka was short.

At most 10 seconds?

Thinking about it, its a considerable amount of time.

Chwak! (TLN: sound effect for cutting something. Why is Korean like this? I dont know.)

The Mukamuka was a beast type monster. The Heavy Strike Longsword cut off the things log like arm in one fell swoop.

Kuooooh!

The monster let out a sorrowful scream as it tried its best to escape the spider web.

Bbuduk! (TLN: sound effect for something breaking)

I stabbed it in the neck with the sword. The sensation of its bone breaking travelled to the tip of my hand.

[+400]

One caught!

One more incoming!

Soo-ah threw the Mukamuka restrained by spider webs towards me.

It seemed to be over 400 kilograms even at a glance. To think she threw something like that.

She was always copying my reaction speed during battles. As it took a considerable amount of time for the Necklace of Confinement to completely copy a stat it was impossible to change it in realtime.

That meant that the power just now was purely her own ability.

Chwak!

[+400]

Kwaaaa!

As soon as we finished defeating the second Mukamuka a huge dragon of fire passed by Soo-ah and I.

Hwaruru! (TLN: sound effect for fire.)

The dragon of fire that turned the 2 Mukamukas into ash while traversing the forest went an additional 100 meters or so before disappearing.

The trees in the path becoming pitch black was merely a side effect.

With that our first battle came to an end.
