chapter 281
281 – Darkness Elixir
Anyway, I got on Geomryong’s back, and the back his was concave as if it was originally made to carry someone
Above them were the three hunters who were still unconscious, and Lizard No. 1 and Tooth No. 1 who were watching them.
They must have come to their senses a few times, and there were traces of being beaten up by the first duo.
– Hwaa—!
Geomryong began preparing for takeoff, emitting pitch-black smoke.
‘They are slowly coming out. It’s not good to show Drake for no reason.’
When I made an urgent gesture towards Yeonhee, Yeonhee placed her hand on Drake’s body
Then, dozens of pitch-black balls swirling around Drake’s body lined up in the direction we were moving, and with a single flap of Geomryong’s wings, they were instantly moved to the first ball lined up.
‘What is this?! Teleportation? Teleport?’
Flutter──!
Each time Geomryong’s wings flap once, to the next ball. Then it moved to the ball.
Each time, pressure was applied from an unpredictable direction.
‘Keuuuuu us usuu usuuuuu us us us us will body will feel the body is twisted.
While I was struggling to balance my body due to the unfamiliar force that suddenly struck me, Yeonhee and the summoned beasts in front of me were sitting very comfortably and looking at me with puzzled eyes.
‘…’
So, right now, I was the only one being affected by this mysterious movement.
‘Geomryong, you bastard, you purposely made things difficult for me…!’
– Crhh…
Geomryong turned his head back and glanced at me. He snorted as if asking what he would do if you got angry.
‘You Mr. Lee, we’ll see soon enough.’
I gave him a fist bump and then went back to thinking.
Anyway, I knew one thing about Drake’s ability.
‘It’s the ability to move like a warp on a shadow sphere… I think this is similar to ‘chaos dregs’?’
Of course, Drake’s ability is in the form of visible beads, and the space between them is narrow.
It seemed to be backwards compatible with the monster’s abilities, but it seemed to have high enough utility.
The feeling of the marble that passed by moving forward again and moving quickly on the approaching marble. It was such a mysterious experience that I even felt like I was heading to another world.
‘It’s good when running away, but it’s also useful when fighting.’
Moreover, it was much faster than the speed I reached my limit in the air.
Of course, this isn’t all this guy’s abilities are, but this alone proves Geomryong’s abilities
Yeonhee looked down at the pension moving away and said with a short sigh.
“Hu- Il-wol still arrived on time? How many missing people did you bring back?”
“Tick, tick, tick.”
I called Ran to answer Yeonhee’s question, but for some reason he didn’t respond.
‘Ran, what’s wrong with this guy?’
Ran was stretched out, limp inside my cloak.
(Cool…)
‘Are you sleeping? By any chance, is it unreasonable to bring up the possibility of subspace?’
I’ve never seen Ran like this before, and she definitely doesn’t seem to have her normal abilities.
[Mimicking]
In the end, I used mimicry to humanize Yeonhee in order to communicate accurately.
While using mimicry, the only ones marked as an insidious group on the mini-map were the ones in the basement a little while ago.
“Uh huh…? Suddenly turning into a human?”
“Ran, your condition is not good.”
It’s been a while since I humanized myself, but speaking has become much easier. Now, I have reached a level where I can almost say that my speaking style is close to my original speaking style.
“Huh? Why is he like this? Ugh, bringing about the possibility of sub-space. I guess it’s not a normal thing.”
“Yes. The people I brought… 569 people.”
“Wow! That was that many?!”
“They’re dangerous…”
Yeonhee was shocked to hear that the awakened and non-awakened people were evenly mixed, but she soon became worried about the next step.
“Where should we take those people? I don’t think it’s a good idea to just leave them somewhere and report them. Things will proceed only if we tell them the whole story. After all, to the management office?”
“Um… Management Office…”
These are the guys who most likely at least turned a blind eye to their actions.
I don’t know the ranks below, but there are probably some high-ranking people involved.
“Yeonsu… Let’s go to Yeonsoo.”
“Yeonsu-sama? Hmm… Is that better? Well, if we go to the management office and say that we saved all these people, we might be tired from being investigated for a while. There is a risk that Il-wol’s abilities will also be revealed.”
Yes. Rather than taking that risk, it would be better to open up some of my abilities to Yeonsu.
At a point when my subspace’s expanded capabilities were running out, we landed in a wide clearing on the side of a mountain.
There we talked some more about whether it was best to contact Kang Yeon-soo, and then I felt something fly in my head.
‘It’s about time.’
The potential of my subspace returned to its original state, and the people I had contained began to come out of the subspace.
Soon, hundreds of scantly clad women quickly began to fill the surrounding space.
The voice that came out of their mouths was a cry full of screams that stuck to the bottom to the point where they could not be separated.
– Hehe…
– Hmm, huh… Kill me…
– My child, my child…?
‘There is no such thing as hell…’
In my subspace, I kept all the tents I used in the hidden dungeon, so I set them up with the summons.
Yeonhee covered people’s bodies with big bore leather one by one, and when she faced Jinkyung and Jiwoo, it seemed like she could not hold back her tears.
“I’m glad… I’m so glad.”
Jin-kyung, who was hugged by Yeon-hee, still couldn’t come to her senses with a bewildered expression on her face, but without realizing it, I felt a little sad seeing her hugging Yeon-hee face to face.
‘I won’t be able to work as a hunter for a while.’
Inbam is known to be very difficult to quit once you start using the drug, so rehabilitation will take a considerable amount of time.
We were only able to gather again after the situation was roughly resolved.
“Should I tell my sister that we need to bring reinforcements together? Wouldn’t it be better to at least vaguely tell her the details?”
“Yeonsu… I think it would be better to call after looking at the situation here…”
“Is that so? Okay.”
Even if he was asked to come with support troops due to the nature of the training, he would run first alone.
Yeonhee nodded to my opinion, then suddenly stopped, turned her head towards me, and shot me a cold look.
‘Why, why are you like this…?’
I felt scared at Yeonhee’s sudden change in appearance and took a step back without realizing it, but for some reason my body became stiff and I couldn’t move properly.
Yeonhee came up to me as I stood still, gently held me in her arms, and asked in a soft voice.
“But … Why do you keep calling Yeonsu by her her first her name her her …? Yeonsu, Yeonsu, Yeonsu … Have we just become friends? Huh?”
Gulp-
‘Because of the habit I used to sing… Damn… No, but is that important now in this situation?’
But it felt like Yeonhee’s eyes had turned slightly, so I quickly shook my head.
“Oh, no… Ah, I’m still not good at it. “I’m not good at speaking.”
When I barely managed to spit out an excuse, Yeonhee said, “Is that so? That’s right…” And nodded and muttered softly.
“We need to increase our dominance…”
‘… What? No, I think it’s enough now. Why?’
Yeonhee strongly pulled my waist while muttering the same words, and I guess it was because of how I felt that it felt quite rough.
I made it into my head that I would have to be very nervous when talking about other people from now on.
Yeonhee held me for a moment and then took out a note from her arms. It’s an item I’ve seen before in the underground space.
“I said if I tear this, Yeonsu will be able to find out where I am.”
“That’s right. I did.”
“Hehe- Ilwol is really good at speaking now. He might be better than me…”
“That’s what I think.”
“What~?”
Yeonhee made a mischievous expression for a moment, but then she tore up the ‘greeting note’ that Kang Yeonsu had given her.
Surprisingly, Kang Yeon-soo appeared in front of us less than 20 minutes later.
Since [Mimicking] Had been released for a while, I returned to the form of a skeleton.
Kwaaang──!
Kang Yeon-soo appeared with a tremor as if a missile had fallen from the sky and urgently called out Yeon-hee’s name.
“What! Yeonhee, what’s going on!”
Kang Yeon-soo ran to Yeon-hee with a serious expression, and she soon realized that we were not in any particular danger.
“Uh, sister. Well… I have something to discuss with you.”
“Huh? Why did you call me to such a dark place? What are those people?”
The lecturer showed a rare look of surprise on her face and pointed to her covered tent with her thumb.
‘It’s somewhat hidden, but I recognize it right away.’
“Yes… Because of them.”
Kang Kang-soo, who walked away, cupped her face as she looked at the long line of well-fed women inside the tent and behind it.
“What on earth are all these women? Hunters account for almost half of them, most of them pregnant… How did they bring so many of them?”
Kang Yeonsoo, who had been through all sorts of hardships before birth, looked blank, as if she couldn’t adapt to the current situation.
Then she suddenly shouted at me as if she remembered something.
“By any chance… Ilwol! Is it you again? Did you bring all the people?”
‘Why did I notice so quickly?’
I shrugged my shoulders at Yeonsu’s shout, and Yeonsu held his head and sighed again.
“Yeonhee, I think we have a lot to talk about, right?”
“Hehe… Yes…”
It was a sight that gave me a sense of déjà vu.
Since we couldn’t just leave hundreds of people like that, the story was summarized as quickly as possible and delivered quickly.
“That’s right… That’s how that organization procured children… Ha-what should I do? Yeonhee. I’m so angry right now.”
“Take a deep breath, sister.”
The magic power of the river surged wildly into the sky, making the air around her boil.
She finally calmed down after firing hundreds of huge magic bullets into the sky and releasing her accumulated anger.
‘It’s so scary…’
The single bullet I had just fired was much more powerful than the fireball that condensed all my magical power, so I felt goosebumps rising all over my body.
“Whew… I need to calm down, calm down. Anyway, what on earth is going on in the world of lower-level hunters? At this point, I have to raise a suggestion that an overall overhaul is necessary.”
Although training was a gentle suggestion, she said it would not sound like a simple suggestion to the president of her association or the high-ranking officials who would be meeting with her. I guess the appeal is very cooperative.
After hearing all of her explanations, Kang Soo showed some level of understanding, but she looked unimpressed.
And it won’t have anything to do with me.
“Truly, the ability to put hundreds of living people into subspace. It’s unprecedented. Do you know? [Warehouse] It’s nice to see the talented people trembling. What on earth is this guy? Yeonhee, you. Are you pushing your abilities on him?”
“… It’s not like that…”
Yeonhee was just busy answering Kang Yeonsu’s questions sincerely and keeping an eye on her. And the reason Yeonhee was cautious was because of me.
‘You don’t have to worry. Yeonsoo’s mouth is heavier than it looks.’
He talks a lot when he’s with us.
A person who rarely says anything other than what is necessary when talking to other people. I don’t have to worry about my abilities leaking out.
‘The training won’t be bad. Rather, they liked it if the person in their line was talented.’
At first I was taken aback, but soon enough, Kang Yeon-soo was looking at me with satisfied eyes.
‘It’s worth it.’
Saving hundreds of missing people from evil forces.
Prevent damage by informing the world about the methods of ‘Tao’.
These two achievements alone were enough to make the world buzz.
And the one who did it was the White Knight Guild.
Among them, it will be known for the achievements of Vice Guild Leader Kang Yeon-soo and the hunters under her.
The guild’s image will improve, and it will be a great help in achieving her goals.
So, you can’t help but feel good about us.
‘We work behind the scenes and put lecturers at the front. It’s a desirable picture.’
During several previous conversations with Yeonsu, he conveyed his opinion that he was reluctant to be exposed to the outside world. Even if you don’t tell her, she will design it that way.
