Civil Servant Hunter’s S-class Resignation Log

Oh, so mental erosion doesn’t work…

“… so I have a mental barrier because Lizaliza is protecting me?”

[T/N: I have no idea what’s with the author and the repeating nickname]

[Administrator: v(°∇^*)⌒☆]

Right, come to think of it, when the rift dungeon exploded at first, they had sent an emoticon that seemed like it was going to be a fun fight.

Although there were times when I get confused about whether or not they cherished me, if it was really dangerous, they wouldn’t have sent the emoticon so playfully.

“So I guess I’m gonna be able to shake the mental erosion off thanks to Lizaliza-nim?”

[Administrator: ( ´—ω･)︻┻┳═＝━]

“You want me to shoot them all?”

Seora pulled out Hit that she had converted into a slingshot from her inventory. Thanks to Kim Sanghyun fainting, Seora could change it back to a sniper rifle and shoot the ghost who tried to erode her.

Puck! However, the mana bullet passed through the ghost and landed on the ground. The white ghost, who was confused, saw it and ran away.

“Now that mental erosion is not a problem, that’s the problem.”

A ghost species is literally a spirit body. Normal physical attacks do not work.

It would be cool if I could shoot and kill all these guys who stopped me from going home on time.

“Above all, I have to keep the section chief alive. Oh, what’s this?”

[Administrator: ( ´—ω･)︻┻┳═━□]

“You want me to shoot the square? Oh, the cube?”

Her unique skill, taking over the field.

“I see. If I set up the zoning to the ghost species itself…”

I haven’t tried it, but since the administrator suggested it, it should be possible, right?

“Field deployment.”

Seora activated her skill without thinking twice. Her reddened eye turned to the fallen Kim Sanghyun.

[Activate the skill ‘Field Control’!]

[Zone setting complete. Temporarily takes control of the specified field!]

A ghost that had invaded his body and gnawed at his mind was reflected in her left eye.

[“Hit” responds to the skill “Field Control”. Bullets are converted appropriately!]

Her finger pulled the trigger. The bullet pierced through Kim Sanghyun’s forehead at once.

Paang!

Aaaaahhh!

The scream of the ghost echoed along with the sound of a balloon popping.

The attacked monster abruptly escaped from Kim Sanghyun’s body. When Seora’s eyes turned to the ghost, at the same time, its body was scattered in the air like dust.

It was the death of a ghost. Even Kim Sanghyun’s body, which had been eroded, had no wounds.

“Cool. Is he alright?”

Seora took turns looking at the gun and Kim Sanghyun, who was freed from the ghost and fell asleep comfortably. A bright smile appeared on her lips.

A very cruel smile.

“So I guess I can kill all the ghost species here?”

[Administrator: ((o(*>ω<*)o)))]

“Can I really shoot and kill all these damn bastards who got in my way of leaving work early?”

[Administrator: ((o(*≧∀≦*)o)))]

“Hahahahahaha!”

Seora’s loud laughter shook the building that had been turned into a ghost town.

Her two eyes were dyed with madness. One of her eyes was red from the influence of the skill, making it even scarier.

“You’re all dead.”

Seora, who converted Hit into a dual pistols, began to take one step at a time.

It was then that the dungeon became a ghost town in a different sense.

***

Whenever fire came out of the dual pistols, the White Ghosts captured by the Red Cube screamed and disappeared into the air. The same was true of the things that eroded the guild members.

If they were caught by Seora’s eyes, they were all dead.

Dozens of Ghosts screamed and fled from Seora. It was very spectacular to see the pure white things disappear like the ebb.

“Ah, where the hell is the Boss Monster? I want to kill them all and leave work.”

However, Seora’s face, which was very excited at first, suddenly became pale.

She was slowly getting exhausted, and it wasn’t because she was burdened by the fainted Kim Sanghyun on her one shoulder. Normally, this much weight shouldn’t have been too difficult…

“It consumes a lot of mana to kill the ghosts.”

Her mana was draining out faster than when she had cut the cube into several pieces to kill the Ore Rhinos.

But Seora wasn’t hard enough to leave the one who had tried to save her.

“Where the hell is the exit?”

The space itself had become a dungeon, and all structures here had been completely changed. Because of that, the exit had also been created elsewhere, but no matter how much Seora looked around the building, she couldn’t find it at all.

Seora blew another head of a fleeing ghost, clicking her tongue.

“There’s no need to catch the boss mob, so we can just go out— Oh my gosh! Hey, you scared me! How can you put a face that’s scarier than a ghost? My heart almost dropped!”

Seora unwittingly swung her gun at the ghost’s face, whose eyes suddenly popped out in front of her. Oops. I swung it like a blunt weapon unconsciously.

She again grabbed her gun properly and pulled the trigger.

[Skill activation is canceled due to excessive skill use!]

“Ah, this.”

At the same time, Seora’s left eye turned black again. The red cube disappeared along with the body of the ghost species scattered in the air.

“I haven’t killed them all yet…”

When her sad voice flowed out along with the silence. Suddenly, a cold chill hit her back.

No, it was not some sort of energy.

This was the unique instinctive sense of the S-class. Seora’s eyes widened.

It was then that a message that she had never seen before popped up.

[The system administrator shouts that it is dangerous to the sole contractor!]

“… Huh?”

It was not an emoticon, but a message directly communicated by the administrator.

Because of that, Seora’s reaction was delayed. A chill hit her half-turned body.

Seora, who came to her sense belatedly, shook her hands and tried to throw Kim Sanghyun away, but it was already too late. Her arm was cut and hot pain spread with blood.

Seora frowned at the burning pain and hurriedly backed away. Blood dripped from the long cut on her left arm.

“The White Ghost is a spirit body, so it wouldn’t be able to do any direct damage to the human body.”

But this guy was able to hurt an S-class body to this extent.

The floating, pure white spirit looked at Seora and grinned. The bright smile of the translucent thing was so bizarre that it gave a sense of ingenuity.

Right. This guy is the Boss.

“Even though it is only the master of a Level 4 dungeon, I guess the Boss is still different from other monsters.”

<Of course we’re completely different.>

“… You’re not a monster, you’re a beast.”

When the unexpected answer came back, Seora’s face grimaced.

Unlike monsters, beasts could speak human language. It meant that they had that much intelligence, so they were very difficult to deal with, but a beast in a Level 4 dungeon? Wasn’t this a scam?

<I am very curious. You look like garbage, so how is it impossible for even me to erode your mind? Who the hell are you?>

“I never thought I’d be told who I am by a beast. I’ve been through all sorts of things.”

<You’re such a strange existence.>

The Boss raised their right hand. The tips of his long, sharp claws were stained with Seora’s blood.

The beast, who looked at it carefully as if to examine it, finally licked the blood and ate it.

“Hey! Don’t suck my blood right in front of me!”

<Since you hate it so much, should I do more?>

Its long tongue, curved like a snake, licked the blood from its nails. Seora looked like she was going to vomit.

“Ummph. This is why I don’t like talking to the mob.”

She aimed the gun she was holding, but soon realized she had made a mistake. Oh, man. I can’t use my skills right now. How do I kill that?

<The taste of this blood… You weren’t just trash, unlike your appearance.>

The beast’s face was filled with ecstasy. Come to think of it, where did I hear that the blood of the top hunter contained dense magic?

<It’s good, it’s delicious. It’s a delicacy.>

“Uukh, what should I do? I feel worse.”

Seora raised her hand and covered her mouth. A little drop of blood spattered from that movement, and the beast’s empty eyes turned to this side.

<That blood made me want to eat more. Give me more. I want to eat more, more!>

As if drunk, the guy lost their temper and shouted. The moment when Seora was terrified and tried to back away somehow.

[The system administrator is furious at the wounds of the sole contractor!]

What popped up was not a familiar emoticon, but a message she had never seen before.

Right. Come to think of it, I forgot about it for a while, but I definitely remembered that message earlier.

[Warning! The system administrator’s wrath…]

“What do you mean by wrath?!”

Seora threw her fist at the message that followed. Perhaps the administrator was surprised, the system screen, which was cut off in the middle, disappeared as it was.

Seora stared into the air.

“Elizabeth, what the hell is that message? What are you hiding from me?”

She waved her fist demanding an answer right away, but the problem was that it made more blood dripped.

The beast who couldn’t bear it anymore flew in quickly with an incomprehensible scream. Seora hurriedly tried to fire the gun, but again, the bullet passed through without hurting the spirit body.

Seora hurriedly flew to the side. Pain spread as her wound rubbed against the hard floor.

“Ah, now is not the time to deal with something like that. Liza-ssi, we need to shake this thing off.”

Even if she was an S-class, she was useless without the skill to attack the spirit. Even more so if it was a spirit that could hurt the body.

This was why it is said that aptitude is more important than grade.

“Should I force myself to use my skills?”

[Administrator: ╭☞(;¬_¬)╭☞]

“You know how to speak, Liza-ssi. If you have something nice to say, just speak.”

[Administrator : (._, )]

[The system administrator says someone is approaching.]

The administrator, who shed a few tears, finally sent a new message. Although it was not proper words, it was possible to communicate clearly, just like with the other Entities.

Since when was it possible to send such a message? And why didn’t they mention anything?
