The Reason the Manager Left the Hunter Guild

chapter 18



18 – Their Conspiracy

Understand it.

My feelings for her first started with anticipation and excitement.

A woman who naturally approached me from one day and expressed her affection.

To me, she was the first girlfriend I had, and the one I truly felt love for, aside from her sister.

However, the time that was so sweet was actually like poison in honey because of my life.

Lee Hae-na, a person who expresses affection for each other and who even made me think about the future.

So, sooner or later, I even thought of introducing her to my sister who was in her hospital, but ..

In the end, it never happened that I introduced her to her brother.

Her younger brother, whose health suddenly deteriorated, and Saenghwang, the guild manager, became more severe as if to match.

And… As if he was trying to inflict more pain on me at the right time.

Because she gave me a unilateral breakup notice.

Despite my request to tell you the reason, Hae-na cut off all relations with me while neatly ignoring it.

Her actions at the time drove me, who was already tattered, into deeper frustration, and as a result, it served as an opportunity for me to hang on to her younger sister, Yuni.

Originally, I was a younger sister whom I cherished, but to me who experienced the pain of parting at the time, the existence of a younger sister soon became the only reason for me to live. I even came to the point that it didn’t matter whether I received it or not.

And I didn’t notice it at the time.

All of this was a dirty plan by Lee Seol-yeong and Lee Hae-na, who acted on her orders to drive me into abyss from the beginning.

Hae-na, who came to know every detail about me as a lover,

She was relaying information about me to Seol-Young Lee, and this was a decisive help in making Seol-Young Lee put an inescapable leash around my neck.

I was able to realize belatedly that both approaching me with affection and suddenly notifying me of a breakup were all part of a ruse for this purpose.

Right after actually breaking up with me, Lee Hae-na, originally a B-class hunter, was promoted to an A-class hunter at Lee Seol-young’s recommendation, and on the other hand, my life, where my weaknesses were completely caught, became more and more difficult after that.

And now…

From my point of view, having learned all the inside stories related to this,

I understand that the human being went beyond the level of her lover who simply abandoned me, and remained the main culprit who tried to destroy my life… My sister’s life for her own gain.

If given the opportunity, as a being who must pay off the debt together with Seolyoung Lee.

And that opportunity…

It appeared in front of me faster than I thought.

The dwelling place of demons located in this space.

There, a woman was putting on her satisfied expression as she looked at her materials laid out in front of her.

‘If you look at the guy named Mine the other day, based on that cat… Roughly, with this much strength, you’ll get an estimate, right? As per Aztas’ order, no human casualties, only threats..’

A woman with purple hair, golden eyes, and a pair of purple horns that are relatively smaller than other demons.

C’Thun, Lord of the Abyss.

She is the leader of the Knights of Tin Talos and has always served as an advisor to Aztas, the demon lord.

Then…

“Oh my gosh… It looks like our staff is plotting something interesting~『”

Hearing the familiar cunning voice coming from behind, C’Thun slowly turned his head away, erasing the smile from his mouth.

“Yogs. What is the person who is busy protecting Lady Yoon doing here?”

“What can I do. 『 No matter how hard it is, just looking at that lady’s face all day is getting a little sore.”

“Does that mean… that you dared to disregard Aztas’s command?”

“Huh.. Well~? 『 How about it?”

Yoggs speaks in a light tone to C’Thun’s harsh words

To his attitude, C’Thun reacted slightly squirming, but soon C’Thun remembered a fact in his head and began to temper his feelings.

“… hahahaha.. I think I know how bored you are when you make a provocation like this.”

“Hmm. It’s such a pity~ I threw the bait with the thought that I would be able to catch a big fish on my own..『”

With those words, Yoggs begins to recover the energy he had been sneaking out.

At this, Cthul said, turning his head away from his colleague, whom he had gradually gotten used to, but still did not trust very much.

“No matter how safe it is by your standards, you must not be careless. Be sure to keep in mind that Aztas did not entrust Lady Yoon’s security to you for nothing.”

“hehehe… I’ll be grateful for advice. So? Can you tell me what thoughts are going through my staff’s head right now? Like I said over there, I’m a bit bored right now~『”

“Well… if that’s the case, there’s nothing I can’t tell you.”

It was quite embarrassing to pass information on to a guy who couldn’t understand even if he was a colleague, but despite this, C’Thun honestly told Yoggs about the situation that was going on.

Apart from her personal credit, she knew.

The method is unpredictable, but the fact that if Yoggs does something, it will somehow end up benefiting them, and Aztas by extension.

“It’s Ma..Mine!”

“Hurry up and contact the Hunter Guild! Evacuate the elderly and children first!”

Mine suddenly popped out of a fountain in a park located in the middle of the city.

Resembling a giant black octopus, it started destroying facilities by swinging its huge legs in all directions.

A scene where streetlights explode, whole benches are pulled out, and trees are broken.

Citizens who were leisurely strolling through the park quickly began to evacuate, and some of them urgently began contacting the Hunter Guild.

A Mine who shows tremendous strength by pulling out entire roadside trees.

Although some of the guards hurriedly started firing their bullets, there were no minor wounds on her guy’s body.

“Damn it… The bullets don’t work at all!”

“If bullets didn’t work with that kind of power… Could it be a Predator-class Mine?”

Guards who automatically start measuring the opponent’s strength according to the standards they know.

And, as if to show them off, Mine began to destroy the park in a spellbinding manner, wielding an arm filled with tremendous power.

Although there were no casualties in the midst of that, for some reason, the people watching the park dying in front of their eyes didn’t have the energy left to care about such a thing.

A Mine that instantly draws people’s attention while instilling deep fear in the area.

That moment…

“? This… Hey there lady! Where are you going?”

“You want to die? Run away!”

“….”

In the next moment, a woman slowly begins to walk into the park, which is becoming Her Majesty.

Wearing her glasses and nonetheless exuding her striking beauty, she began to stride fearlessly into the park where the demons are rampaging.

“Seo.. Is that a Hunter? I came to defeat the devil…”

“Mo.. I don’t know. But as far as I remember, I’ve never seen a Hunter like that…”

Some people tried to stop her, seeing that even her opponent was her hunter, so her wife was just as reckless, but because of her fierce demonic appearance, her people It was a situation where I couldn’t even try to approach.

And after a while…

Her demon began to turn her gaze towards her, and she began to swing her huge arm.

The devil’s leg broke even the iron streetlight that was flying towards the slender woman like a toothpick.

People could easily imagine what would happen after this,

Some people reflexively closed their eyes because they didn’t want to see the next scene.

But…

-Pak!

“Huh?”

“Huh?”

Right after that…

People momentarily doubted their eyes about the ensuing scene.

It’s…

A woman who blows Majin’s head off with a single punch.

The unbelievable scene of a demon who turned a park into powder in just a few minutes was killed in one blow… People looked blank for a moment.

And right after that…

As if nothing had happened, the woman who killed the demons at once left the place as she boarded the car she had been in.

‘This time, her design is a bit unusual. Well, I can’t say anything about C’Thun’s aesthetic sense…’
