chapter 146
#146. Pseudo bastards.
“Please pull me out.”
“No.”
“No. Am I really doing it for more than one person now?”
As I was getting some air in the park on the first floor of the association building, I put my forehead on the author’s words.
“You wrote it in the recruitment syllabus. They say that they receive at least a grade of B or higher.”
“Eh~ From what I heard from the team leader, I think he said that he was trying to take talented people as much as possible.”
It has been two days since the establishment of the search headquarters of Sulwhagyo.
The author came to me and made fun of me to be put into the Sulwhasoo search team.
“No matter what. Don’t accept it.”
“I’ve been busy lately, so I said that I don’t have time to look after myself.”
“It’s because S-class isn’t a joke for kids.”
“What do you mean? How long has it been since you became S-class?”
…It’s been a long time.
It was almost 10 years ago, but I kept my mouth shut.
“And this has personal reasons rather than career or experience.”
The author showed no sign of retreating smoothly.
“Ha…”
“These are the people who tried to kill me and my academy classmates. I actually almost died.”
The red eyes of her have a distinct look.
“I won’t bother you. I don’t know anything else, but in combat situations, I’ll do better than B-class hunters.”
Eunwon relationship.
It’s not just a general reason, it’s a reason you risk your life…
“I might end up just doing chores.”
“It’s okay.”
“I mean, there may not be anything that will help you in your career.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
After I felt her hardened wick, I had no choice but to accept her foolishness.
“… Let’s talk about it.”
“Hey! Thanks!”
Where did the serious airflow go a while ago? The author smiled mischievously as if possessed by a puppy again.
“But if the HR team complains about your use, then it’s useless.”
“Then why don’t we go to Sihwa?”
“I don’t think he will accept it any more.”
“So, Master asked me to do it all at once.”
I took a deep breath, I said yes, and went back to the temporary search headquarters meeting room.
“You’re busy with work, but where do you go like that?”
Sihwa, seated right in front of the entrance, asked me without even paying attention.
“The author wants to come to the headquarters.”
“You are just raising a daughter. Raise a daughter.”
Sihwa looked up at me as if there was no absurdity.
“You know. He’s so good at it.”
“Your dad was so good even to praise him.”
Sihwa came out with such an attitude for nothing, so I kept listening to the author’s side.
“What do you say when you know her circumstances clearly?”
“Look here. Choi In-wook.”

The chair is pushed back.
“If Lee Ji-eun was on the scene, what do you think he would have prevented?”
“I think it would have been helpful.”
As I stared into her blue eyes with a stubborn attitude, Sihwa turned her head as if to quit.
“Oh. I don’t know. I won’t take responsibility. All right, come here and take a look.”
At her call, I dragged a chair and sat right next to her, and I looked at the monitor.
“What is all this?”
“These are the reports that were just uploaded, but these are the traces found in the closed area of the Seoul subway.”
I dragged and enlarged the photos, and I was frowned upon.
“…Analysis went in?”
“You are doing it now.”
I couldn’t get rid of the grotesque feeling in the photo just looking at the cancer.
If I had to explain it, the expression that the humanoid monster took off its skin like an insect would be the most appropriate.
The epidermis of the monsters seemed to remain like a statue, but it was very grotesque that the back was torn as if someone had ripped it off.
“Now… If this is a shell, the question is what’s inside.”
“It’s obvious. They are the children of Sulwhasoo. Neither do you.”
“So, it’s about what process you go through and what comes out.”
“I wonder if I will be like the kids who invaded. It’s a baseless speculation, though.”
I thought I’d seen all the stars, but it was the first time I’d seen something like this, so I laughed out loud.
“I have to find the home of these bastards and turn them over.”
“Did you forget? Wasn’t their headmaster never caught in a previous life?”
“That’s because they’ve been out for a while.”
Even at that time, such an enemy had an accident, but never openly intercepted the headquarters.
What is the reason for a religious group that is not a monster to attack the association?
“Once all the team members are assembled, let’s move as soon as possible.”
“For a while, it looks like it was just digging through the tunnels like a mole.”
You seem to be struggling to avoid being caught by magic detection, but we have no choice but to find it.”
Even if there were facilities that detect magic power spread all over Seoul, it wouldn’t be of much help to the siege of Sulwhagyo.
A device created from the beginning to detect monsters that threaten humanity.
It is not intended to detect human magic, and if you have not yet grasped the trend of Sulwhasoo, it is safe to say that estimates have already been made.
“Isn’t Harin Yun coming?”
An unexpected word came out of Sihwa’s mouth.
“Harin? Suddenly?”
“No. I think it’s 100 times more efficient to use Yoon Ha-rin than to try a guy like Lee Ji-eun.”
“Because I’m not working for the association yet, and there’s nothing like that Harin must participate unconditionally just because I do it.”
“Still, if you call me, I think they will run to me, so I call.”
I looked at Sihwa with a puzzled face for a moment.
“Why.”
“No. It’s just funny that you say that.”
“Personally, I don’t feel very happy, but is it still better than being with a bunch of kids like Lee Ji-eun?”
Sihwa’s innocence turned into an arrow for nothing and swept through the author.
I’m sorry. My brother
However, in order for the author to become equal with Harin, she was still far short of it.
“…I’ll get the word out soon.”
“If you are in a hurry, just talk and come. Don’t do anything weird.”
I was stabbed and dragged the chair back to my seat.

“This is it.”
Following the butler’s guidance, I entered the old abandoned factory.
Even though you are in a fairly deep mountain, you can feel the turbid air as soon as you open the door.
It wasn’t dust or other foreign matter.
I was well aware of the identity of this sticky, eerie atmosphere.
Dungeon.
The stench from a fairly high-level dungeon also stung my nose and climbed up.
How in the world can you create such an atmosphere in a space other than a dungeon?
“Watch your feet.”
As if to prove that my prediction was not wrong, there were purplish-purple liquids with strong viscous properties here and there.
“Are you sure this is really a KP-affiliated building?”
“Lady. Would you have brought me here without checking that as well?”
I thought it was a stupid question.
However, the scene unfolding before my eyes was enough to make me doubt the reality.
KP Group.
It is a global company that can be said to form almost two mountain ranges with GW, which is run by my father.
Who would have imagined that a factory owned by such a company would look like this.
I came here directly after receiving a report that I think I found another trace of Sulwhagyo…
The street number of the main culprit in the association’s terrorism incident seemed to have been found correctly.
“Did you leave all the photographic material as a record?”
“Of course.”
I went through the dark hallway and tried to turn on the light, but there was no switch to turn on the light.
…That doesn’t seem like a good way to do it.
Close your eyes and focus your magic power.
After reconfirming that at least no monsters or humans possessing magical powers were felt inside this factory, I slowly raised my finger upwards.
A thin silver thread emits a soft light.
When I parted through the thick darkness, I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut.
“What is this…”
Large laboratory…?
It felt more like a barn or a hatchery rather than a laboratory.
Unknown figures lined up in a row.
“Is it alive…is it…?”
It was the moment when I was about to move slowly.
“I don’t think I’ve heard of guests coming.”
-Ttogakttogakttogak
The high ceiling made the sound of shoes even louder.
“Is it possible that you are interested in our denomination?”
When I turned my head toward the faint voice I heard, there was…
The pattern left in red on the mask on a white background.
Instinctively, he raised his magic power and wrapped himself around him.
“Is that possible?”
“I don’t think it would be a good choice to use too much magic here.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a creepy sensation ran down her spine.
Wooooo
When the whole building began to vibrate, a bright red eye light fell on the face of the human-shaped epidermis.
“You seem to be a good material.”
“…Pseudo bastards.”
It seemed that the moment had finally come when the efforts made to stand side by side with Inwook had finally come to light.
