Solo Leveling- Ragnarok

Chapter 234

It would be hard to enumerate the achievements of Association President Woo Jinchul over the past two years.

And as many accomplishments as there were, there were numerous nicknames and epithets attached to his name, one of which was ‘villain identifier.’

-It’s really amazing.

-How on earth is Woo Jinchul so good at catching villains? Do you have any theories?

-Rumor has it that he can predict which people with criminal records will awaken.

-Hey, does that make sense?

-That makes sense. Is Woo Jinchul called ‘villain identifier’ for no reason?

-Everyone knows how Jisan Prison was created, right?

Jisan Prison is a specialized villain detention center established by the Hunter Association two years ago and was established under the strong villain countermeasures of Woo Jinchul, the president of the association.

But in fact, even in the early days of the cataclysm, the place was not like that.

It was a prison where even ordinary criminals with long sentences could go, even if they were not villains.

But before they knew it, something really strange started happening inside.

One by one, ordinary criminals who were directly arrested by the association’s president, Woo Jinchul, began to awaken inside Jisan Prison.

Everyone dismissed it as a coincidence at first, but later when most of the prisoners eventually awakened, people could not help but be shocked again.

-Maybe Association President Woo Jinchul has the skill to find out in advance who will awaken and when.

-That’s a bit rude. If that were possible, the Hunter Association would have gone to each person in advance and had them register.

-Still, it seems certain that we can at least find out who will be the villain. It’s a fact that the villains were captured.

-Isn’t it because he became an awakened person after working as a police officer for a long time that he developed such a keen perception?

Although there were so many opinions, no one in the Republic of Korea doubted the fact that Woo Jinchul was good at recognizing would-be villains.

So it was natural for something like this to come out.

-Then what about Hunter Sung Suho?

The Hunter Association announced that Sung Suho is an S-class hunter.

Sung Suho himself publicly declared that he was the Beast King Crow, who had been active while wearing a mask.

People who found out about this were busy talking about Sung Suho whenever they got together.

-Will Woo Jinchul immediately know whether Sung Suho is a villain or not when he sees him?

-No, why is Sung Suho a villain? The hero of Loktak Field who saved India is Sung Suho! He’s a national hero!

-That makes it even more suspicious.

-I know. In the first place, why would anyone go all the way to India without anyone knowing and wander around in a foreign country’s fields?

-If you think about it, isn’t he actually a criminal?

-Haha, it’s a fact that he’s already a criminal. In the first place, the fact that an S-class hunter crossed the border without permission is a violation of international law.

-In the end, it was a happy ending, but from India’s perspective, it was no different from a declaration of war.

-He even confessed this time that you are the Beast King Crow. 1

-Isn’t there a reason why someone as high as an S-class hunter should have kept his identity hidden in the first place? Isn’t it because something is bothering him?

-Wow, then is he really a villain??

[The era of great chaos has now arrived.]

Beru, who was watching the public opinion, chuckled.

As Beru said, a lot of information about Sung Suho, which has hit Korea is throwing the world into chaos.

Lim Dogyun, who was looking at the tablet with Beru next to him, looked at Suho with a very frightened expression.

“Suho, no, Guildmaster, is this really okay? The atmosphere right now is so… Public opinion is increasingly labeling the Guildmaster as a suspicious person.”

Lim Dogyun felt like the vice president of an insolvent company on the verge of bankruptcy.

It’s unfair.

“No! People are really angry! We just hid our identity, and our Guildmaster hasn’t done anything wrong so far, so why do we have to listen to them say he’s a villain?”

Suho laughed and shrugged his shoulders at Lim Dogyun’s fuss.

“Why is my brother feeling so unfair? Did I do something wrong?.”

“It is a truly serious crime for an S-class hunter to go to India without permission.”

“No, that’s because Thomas Andre also came to our country last time!”

“No one could say anything back then!”

“Later, I heard that Thomas paid a huge amount of compensation to our country as compensation.”

“Money is everything!”

“Anything can be done with enough money.”

The last words were spoken by Yoo Jinho, who just happened to open the door.

“Suho.”

Yoo Jinho said with a grin towards Suho.

“Do you think this will be enough?”

Suho also laughed.

“Yes. It’s just right.”

“If it’s this uncomfortable, I don’t think anyone will object to me going to North Korea.”

“Okay. rather, there is now a feeling among the other S-class hunters that someone should take responsibility and bring him to the association president Woo Jinchul for verification.”

“The president of the association said that if he personally took you around and you did some good work in North Korea, he would be able to rest assured that you are not a villain…”

“I was just saying.”

“Thank you.”

Startle

During the conversation between the two, Lim Dogyun suddenly realized the whole truth and his eyes widened.

“Now, wait a minute. What you are saying right now is that this public opinion atmosphere is all intentional…?”

At his words, Yoo Jinho stretched his neck from side to side and looked at Lim Dogyun and shrugged his eyebrows.

“Well, we used our employees to do a little commenting.”

“…?!”

Dogyun Lim looked as if he had just found out that Santa Claus was actually his father. 3

I realized just how enormous the ‘smallness’ that the CEO of Ajin Soft was talking about was.

[Voting has begun!]

At Beru’s words, everyone’s eyes turned to the voting screen at the same time.

“The opposing votes…”

“Hardly any.”

“We will have to wait until this evening to see the results of the vote to be sure, but…”

“Okay.”

“I think it was a success.”

Sigh.

A meaningful smile appeared on the lips of Suho and Yoo Jinho at the same time.

The number of negative votes was rising in real time, but the speed was insufficient.

They used various methods to sway public opinion just in case, but the fact that it was so effective meant that the public was anxious about Sung Suho.

“Well, it’s natural.”

“I don’t think you will, but just in case, don’t get hurt for no reason.”

Yoo Jinho continued speaking in a relatively light tone, patting Suho on the shoulder.

“It’s only been two years since the cataclysm occurred. No matter how much hunters fight for humanity, it is still uncomfortable for ordinary people to be around hunters who suddenly turn into superhumans. For people to adapt, at least…”

“It will take more than five years.”

Since these were spoken by Yoo Jinho, who had memories of the past, the period of at least 5 years was probably certain.

“Good. Then, we can just wait until the evening for the vote to end. Shall we go and take care of other things in the meantime?”

[I will follow!]

When Suho stretched and looked at Beru, Beru quickly jumped up onto his shoulder.

Just then, Hunter Seo Jiwoo received a call. 1

“Hunter Sung Suho, I have arrived. Where are you now?”

“Yes. I’m almost there too.”

Even though they hadn’t even left yet, Suho answered quickly.

A double dungeon with ptosis.

I had made an appointment in advance to meet with Hunter Seo Jiwoo, who was to tell me the exact location of that place.

It was going to be quick anyway.

“Dogyun brother, uncle. I’m going to go somewhere. Please text me later when the voting results come out.”

“Uh, huh?”

“Okay, come back soon.”

Lim Dogyun is embarrassed and Yoo Jinho smiles and waves leisurely.

[Use ‘Skill: Shadow Exchange’]

At that moment, the positions of Suho’s body and the shadow soldier in Seo Jiwoo’s shadow were exchanged.

* * *

“Hello.”

“…?!”

Seo Jiwoo, who was holding her cell phone, was startled when Suho suddenly approached her, and had no choice but to take a step back.

“Huh, how?!”

It was natural for Seo Jiwoo to be surprised.

‘What? I didn’t even feel a presence approaching? Could it be that he wasn’t a tank, but an assassin?’

No way?

Even when he sparred with Ma Dongwook, Suho was an absolute tank.

It is a combative world that emphasizes strength and tenacity.

On the other hand, Seo Jiwoo, unlike Ma Dongwook, was an agile hunter who fought using agile movements and powerful skills. She was also S-class.

‘If he is strong enough to deceive my senses and approach me…?’

She was confused.

From the first time she saw him at the association, she knew he had extraordinary abilities, but Suho was like an onion no matter how much she peeled it, there was always more.

However, as if Seo Jiwoo’s shocked heart did not concern him at all, Suho looked around with calm eyes and opened his mouth.

“Hapjeong Station. You’re telling me that you contracted ptosis somewhere around here.” 1

“Huh.”

“We have asked the association to temporarily close this passage to citizens.”

A sign saying ‘under construction’ was currently hanging around Hapjeong Station.

Citizens had to cross the street and use a different ticket gate, but no one complained too much.

Since it was work done by the association, I was more anxious to quickly evacuate in case a gate appeared.

Thanks to this, on the quiet road, Seo Jiwoo traced old memories and guided Suho.

“Back then, there was an open gate along these stairs, but now it’s just an ordinary subway station entrance.”

“Can we find some clues?”

“We have to look for them now.”

As he answered, Suho’s eyes suddenly looked down at his own shadow.

“Harmacan, come out and see.”

[Yes, master.]

“Kwaaaah?!”

At that moment, a huge shadow soldier, Harmacan, suddenly rose above Suho’s shadow.

Seo Jiwoo couldn’t hold back this time and ended up screaming.

[Hmm]

When Harmacan, who greeted Suho, quickly lowered his gaze and made eye contact with Seo Jiwoo, Seo Jiwoo couldn’t help but feel nervous and scared.

“Hunter Sung…?”

She spoke as calmly as possible, but her voice couldn’t help but tremble.

“What! What on earth is this summon? At least A grade, no S grade? This is my first time seeing a summon that gives me such an uneasy feeling. Didn’t Hunter Sung reawaken as a tank?”

It was confusing.

For Seo Jiwoo, who had only seen Suho’s adorable summons, the energy radiating from the new summon that appeared before her eyes was quite terrifying.

[Harmacan Lv.5]

Elite Knight Grade

As Suho’s level increased, the level of the summons that fought with him also increased.

Harmacan, who was the great chief of the demon race, couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable about beings that have life.

Once again, thousands of shadow soldiers standing by Suho’s side in Loktak, India appeared in Seo Jiwoo’s mind.

‘Could it be that it wasn’t really a dungeon break? I think the association should have gone through a more thorough verification process.’

It was a huge error in judgment to assume that he would naturally be a tank after his struggle with Ma Dongwook.

“Hunter Sung Suho… What are you… What is that?”

“I am Crow, the Beast King.”

Suho responded as if it were a joke, but Seo Jiwoo didn’t even hear it as a joke anymore.

“Beast King…”

Okay. That was it!

A disaster that occurred at Magog Field a while ago.

An unidentified hunter who overcame all the trials there and gained the power of the beast king.

The fact that that person was Sung Suho explained everything.

“Okay. Hunter Sung, you gained the power of a king in Magog and reawakened…”

It’s creepy.

Now it feels like the whole puzzle is coming together.

‘It’s not like I was lucky enough to escape from ptosis, but in a completely different way, he also overcame a tremendous ordeal and reawakened.’

Seo Jiwoo’s eyes trembled slightly as she looked at Suho.

Anyway, Suho glanced at Hapjeong Station and ordered Harmacan.

“Harmacan, I was told that there was a double dungeon here. With your abilities, you can confirm it, right?”

[I will do my best.]

Whoa!

At that moment, a magic circle began to manifest centered around Harmacan.

This spell is a legacy of Kandiaru that he discovered by chance in the world of illusions a long time ago, and since he began to study this ability in earnest, Harmacan has been able to become incredibly strong.

It was thanks to this ability that he was able to rise from an ordinary chief to the level of a war chief.

[Instance dungeon has been created.]

Instance Dungeon.

A wide-ranging magic circle that twists existing dimensions to create a ‘pocket dimension’.

This was the ability to twist the gap between dimensions and create a world beyond it.

Tring!

[Item: Dungeon Key]

Difficulty of acquisition: Level E

Type: Key

-This is the key to go to the instance dungeon.

You can use it at Exit 3 of Hapjeong Subway Station.

Harmacan politely presented the key he had created through magic to Suho.
