Chapter 163 – The Sportsman (1)
“It’s really nothing.”
That was my impression when I first witnessed the Hunter City (scheduled) site.
After narrowly fulfilling my week-long grace period, I was exiled on a plane and landed in the wilds of the American West.
There were a lot of large planes that didn’t suit the sluggish rural airport…
It was to the point where I was worried that I would be able to land more.
Even at this moment, airplanes are gathering one after another from all over the world.
When Yeriel saw me and smiled, the next moment another hangar opened.
It turns out that even at this moment, one S-Rank Hunter was expanding the airport in real time.
“There are hunters scattered here, but what if the infrastructure is a little weak?”
“The S-rank rock manipulation hunter is dope…”
The Hunters, who were able to use their abilities freely after a long time, rushed to participate in the construction of the city.
Originally, there were many restrictions on the use of abilities in the city…
It’s worth coming to Hunter City just by solving that.
Meanwhile. The Korean Hunter Association called to confirm that we had arrived safely.
The person on the video call is none other than the president of the association.
Although this nobleman was extremely deeply involved in the special unit, he avoided impeachment on the pretext that his term of office was over anyway, and succeeded in getting a second term as soon as the incident calmed down a little.
Anyway, it was possible because the president appointed the president of the association.
Yes, the president was also reelected.
My impression of him was simple.
“Corruption isn’t a big deal. Isn’t that T-aya?”
“That’s right, Master!”
[Is that the greeting you greet upon arrival…]
“Actually, he stayed in Korea because he was the president of the association. Korea is comfortable and nice, right?”
[Nu, someone has to stay for management.]
Well, actually, it’s better to serve as the president of the association rather than someone else.
That old man was at least someone I could communicate with.
In the society of civil servants, there are many people who are inferior to the old man.
If you are the president of the association, you can consider it as the top 5% of all time.
When I turned the camera around and showed the current situation of Hunter City, the president of the association immediately ran away.
I was wondering where to spend the night.
Various equipment and manpower poured from the plane sent by the company.
When Seo Ji-yu saw it, she was started.
“Um, what’s all that?”
“The latest type of magic sensor. It is now at the stage where it can even discriminate an individual’s magic pattern, so if you link it to the city’s database, you can find out who used what abilities.”
“If you listen to the story, it sounds like a complete dystopia…”
“Anyway, I have to do this much.”
However, among the people who came out of the company’s plane, there was one uninvited guest.
I was slightly taken aback by the green hair of the still sleepy eyes.
“But why are you here?”
“Looking at her social media her, I thought it would be okay here. Rice and snacks seem to come out well…”
“What? SNS? You bastard!”
“Tia ah!”
Tia, who was caught on social media, cried bitterly after being hit by my sweet night.
It’s a little embarrassing, but… It’s a little bit like keeping green hair locked up in the company’s facility.
He actively cooperated with us, so we should treat him in his own way.
Alice also said a little puzzled.
“You haven’t decided on a lodging yet, so are there going to be three Hunter Pets?”
“No, four.”
“Ah…”
I said, glancing at the red hair tied behind us.
Restrained by the shape of a slender woman, he was staring at her green hair her very convolutedly.
“You…”
“Wouldn’t it be nice if he was alive?”
“… I see. Well, good.”
The green hair approached him and hugged him tiptoe.
The difference in height between the two is huge, so it’s a bit of a struggle.
“But where do we really sleep?”
“Don’t worry. There’s a hotel over there. As soon as we started planning, we built it first.”
“But.”
According to common sense, there is no way that even the lodgings for the hunters were not properly built.
After I calmed down a bit, Tia asked, half worried and half excited.
“By the way, how is Master now?”
“Me? Hunter City Chief of Police. By the way, Yeriel is the first mayor.”
“Have you already decided…”
“Because there’s no one else to do it. There’s even less people who want to do it.”
In common sense, perverts who want to face all kinds of bizarre hunter crimes are not very common.
In the end, we watched until a decent airport terminal was built and then moved to our accommodation.
@
It was two years later that I and Yeriel were able to return to Korea.
Once you have been deported, you cannot enter simply for the sake of tourism, so for the time being, you obtained permission to enter the country in the name of a meeting.
However, ordinary people did not seem to care much about the deportation order, and came out to the airport to welcome us.
To be precise, I welcomed Yeriel and Alice, not me, but…
No one welcomed me.
“Chief, welcome.”
“Uh huh, I’m the chief now. Did anything happen?”
“Almost all hunters have moved to Hunter City, so it’s quiet these days.
It’s a strange thing.
Lee Seo-woo, a former police officer, became an investigator specializing in hunters, and I, a former prosecutor, became the chief of police.
Behind Lee Seo-woo, the fake Green Dust nodded in greeting.
He was one of the remaining personnel in Korea to assist Lee Seo-woo.
“You didn’t have an accident with that child, did you?”
“Yes. Although he grumbles a little, he listens well. But what did you come on? I couldn’t see the plane landing…”
“Bicycle.”
“Yes?”
“Haha, long time no see.”
When I pointed backwards with my chin, the Hunter with the teleportation ability greeted me.
This guy was once caught stealing Lee Seo-woo’s bicycle…
At that time, his abilities had developed tremendously, and now he has become an S-rank hunter capable of intercontinental space movement.
However, the ability was still activated a little strangely.
“They say you have to sit on a bicycle to move in space. A person moves while moving a bicycle.”
“…”
When Lee Seo-woo and his teammates stare blankly at him, he turns his head away in embarrassment.
We exited the airport and immediately went to the Winter Kingdom headquarters.
This is a visit to the summit only in name, but in fact it is tourism.
Tia and the green guy in particular are all dressed up like tourists.
“To think that I can’t come in and out of my country at will…”
“Is Hunter City okay?”
“Now the foundation has been properly established. Originally, there was only a wasteland, but it would be surprising to see it in person.”
Hunter City has been around for 2 years, so I’m not envious of any large city these days.
Hunters were only a handful compared to ordinary people, so the population of the city was not very large… But many migrants also came.
Just because it’s a city of hunters doesn’t mean that only hunters can live there.
“Aren’t you having kids yet?”
“Ugh, it sounds like a big deal. I’m too busy to be able to give birth.”
I hurriedly covered Lee Seo-woo’s mouth in case Yeriel would hear.
Besides, we already have two kids at home.
After the death of the white hair, Yeriel, who became very generous, asked Tia and the green hair.
“It will be free time from tomorrow, what do you guys want to do?”
“I really missed Korean pork belly. The udon restaurant I went to with the owner and Alice the other day, charcoal-grilled Korean beef, and Korean traditional food…”
“Yes, you choose all the restaurants on this trip. Do you have any wishes for green?”
“A candle, green?”
Unlike Lee Seo-woo, who was shocked, Green accepted his nickname without his hesitation.
This one had a bit of overlap with me in color, so I was worried for nothing.
“But you can’t call her by a name like ‘Amart’. Tia has already been used by her.”
“Then… What is this guy? Red?”
“No. It’s not a communist party… He’s Red.”
“It’s a mess…”
The red hair still had some rebellion left, but it didn’t say much.
In the meantime, Green expressed his opinion in a slow, relaxed tone.
“I… Want to go to a baseball game. Soccer or basketball doesn’t matter.”
“You mean sports?”
“Yeah. I’ve never seen a sporting event myself… I think it would be amazing to see so many people gathered together.”
“If you’re a human, you’ve seen a lot of people gathered in Incheon. Even when we’re one body…”
When Red grumbled a little, Greeny slowly shook his head and added.
“Not those who are eager to kill us.”
“Okay, then let’s play baseball. The Dome Stadium is nearby.”
“But you’re maintaining that building well. More than half of the guild members have escaped to Hunter City…”
As Alice looked up at the Winter Kingdom headquarters and said, Yeriel smiled.
“I heard it’s nice to be able to take the place where competing hunters left out?”
“Anyway, Gilma unnie’s business is really…”
“Pork belly! Pork belly!”
“Calm down man. I’ll feed you soon.”
After the first time in a while, the special team members gathered together, and the usual tension came out right away.
I beckoned for the fake green dust guy.
“…”
“You’re not killing people these days, are you?”
“These days, there’s no one to kill. They’re all petty criminals.”
“Yeah? That’s great.”
“That’s good. Isn’t it time for me to go to Hunter City soon?”
“No. There are too many people on our side that you would kill.”
“… I really don’t kill.”
“You picked the wrong horse, man.”
However, the peaceful atmosphere did not last forever.
Apparently we were driving a case.
