Chapter 240 – The Kraken Attack (2)
Dawn the next day.
The barriers cracked, and a battle similar to yesterday continued.
The only difference was that the Mage Tower’s collective magic, which signaled the start of the battle, was not used today.
The number of people has decreased considerably compared to the beginning, and it takes two to three days for wizards to replenish their magical power once they have used it up.
“Ha!”
A battle with Kraken Jr., Who has set foot on land.
In a situation where simultaneous battles are in full swing, Son Seo-yeon stands out by far.
The sword flashes and every time it cuts through the air, countless cut squid legs fall.
“… The main character’s buff is amazing.”
This was thanks to Han Joo-yeon’s buff.
As if it was not a lie when she told Han Joo-hee that she would be responsible for us, she put all sorts of buffs on her body before going into battle.
Physical ability increase, defense increase, concentration improvement, magic efficiency increase, resilience enhancement, etc.
Should I really call it a buff for S-class hunters?
After receiving all of them, it was enough to lightly chew on one grade.
Watching the guy easily slice through an opponent who was thin until yesterday, I thought it was amazing.
“It’s a golden spoon, it’s a golden spoon.”
Mom, Dad, and aunt.
With as many as three S-class hunters by his side, wouldn’t that be enough to call him a diamond spoon?
He even inherited all of his mother’s and father’s talents.
… Of course, I never taught it myself, but I’m using it well in my own way, even if it’s a little sloppy.
“Haha…”
A smile spreads across the face of the guy who won the victory against two Kraken Juniors at the same time.
Okay.
Run wild until you feel relieved.
Until all the ridiculous guilt that the Kraken appeared because of him was blown away.
While he assists by using his magic only in dangerous moments, he checks the Kraken in the distance through the open barrier.
Most of them are sunk in the sea, but just looking at the triangular pointed head floating on the surface, you can guess how huge the body is hiding underneath.
“… Are you still spawning?”
The reason why they don’t do anything and stay submerged in the water is for spawning.
After sucking in the energy of the sea, it must be using it to lay eggs steadily.
In fact, an egg the size of a human torso is floating around the body.
“One day ahead… , No, two days?”
The spawning of the Kraken continues until the energy of the surrounding seawater drops below a certain level.
After the energy of sucking weakens, it is judged that sufficient spawning has been achieved, and after that, they will launch a full-scale invasion with their offspring.
At this point, there will be people who have these questions.
Wouldn’t it be okay to grind the Kraken with a pre-bread while spawning?
Can not be done.
The moment you strike a first bread at a guy who is preying on the energy of the sea, he gives up spawning.
Then, it absorbs all the energy sucked into the body and replaces it with its own power.
In fact, Japan touched it at that time, and the guy fired an enormous breath, so he suffered a ridiculous blow, probably.
I don’t know if you can kill a spawning egg with one shot, but if that’s impossible, it’s better not to touch it at all.
“Hmm… , To attack that…”
If I were an S-class hunter, how would I attack him?
Run the simulation in your head.
“Fighting at sea… , Suicidal.”
But to fight on land, that’s why there are so many problems.
How to lure that huge thing to land, how to deal with the damage to the surrounding cities when it goes on a rampage, and so on.
“After all, there is only one.”
If you try to eliminate impossible situations one by one, in the end there will be only one left.
It’s about getting right into the guy’s body and attacking him.
Of course, even that doesn’t seem easy.
Most super-sized monsters have at least one means to repel something invading their body.
Sometimes it’s to the point of regretting that it would have been better for the guys that were severe enough to attack from the outside step by step.
Maybe the guy does too.
“Hmm… , But it’s the best way.”
Hunter’s strategy has many things to pay attention to in various ways.
Especially if the combat environment is outside the dungeon, not inside.
Of course, there should be no human casualties, and the operation must be designed in such a way as to minimize damage to buildings in the case of a city and damage to nature in the case of a natural environment.
Isn’t it hard like a dog?
Yeah, it’s hard
That’s why Hunter doesn’t make a lot of money.
Nothing comes for free in this world.
Coo coo coo… !
The barriers that were open begin to close again.
This is one signal announcing the end of today’s operation.
“Ah, has the time already gone that way?”
Looking around, there are only a handful of Kraken Jr. Alive, and it is full of corpses.
Almost all of the remaining populations in the sea seem to have disappeared…
By tomorrow, the work that a B-class hunter can do will be finished.
And then the full-scale Kraken attack will begin.
I can’t wait to see what kind of effective strategy I will use to attack him.
Then, inadvertently, my eyes go to the gap in the almost completely closed barrier.
The triangular head of the Kraken seen in the distance.
Flash!
Suddenly the boy opens his eyes.
“… ?”
At the same time, the barrier was completely closed.
It’s not a big deal for him to close and open his eyes during spawning, but it feels like his focus was on this side… , Isn’t it?
.

After returning from the battle, Seo-yeon and I had to be held captive by Han Ju-yeon for a while.
“I need to check carefully to make sure there are no injuries, so stay still!”
She seemed to feel a greater sense of responsibility than she thought.
Since she spoke out against Joo-hee Han like that, did she want to protect it somehow?
She was held like that, and after dinner together, she was released and returned to her lodgings.
The only thing you can do here is to touch your smartphone, or watch an entertainment program that doesn’t make much fun with your smartphone.
“Oh, boring.”
I’d rather start to think that the battle would be better.
Gying-
The smartphone that is roughly placed on the bedside falls loudly.
I checked to see someone…
“… Han Joo -hee? “
As soon as I saw the name, my mind was slightly stupid.
When you pour out such a rant so suddenly?
I didn’t get hurt, but the sediment to the person who spoke that remained.
I wanted to refuse her phone. .
“Hello.”
At the same time, I was curious.
Why do you call me this night?
Silence lasting for a while.
“… Hello?”
When I talk one more time, I hear her voice.
-I want to meet you for a while.
* * *
On the high protective wall overlooking the sea with the moonlight.
Upon using the fly magic, Han Joo -hee, who was waiting in advance, bowed to him and spoke apologies.
“Sorry.”
“…”
Red hair falls off at the same time.
“I couldn’t distinguish between what I had to say and what I shouldn’t say.”
The sincerity is melted in a plain tone.
That’s why I was amazing, wondering, and a little angry.
I only knew that you lost the word apple since you changed.
Even now, he was still a person who can admit my fault and apologize honestly.
“You apologize very quickly?”
It seems like a sarcastic tone of the twisted feelings.
Her expression of her head did not even feel the nursery rhyme.
Rather, it seems natural to listen to that way.
Kim Do -jin, who did not like that attitude, rolled up his mouth and put a ridicule in his mouth.
“Are you stepping on your eyes with me?”
She shook her head calmly to the ridicule and accusation of whether she would apologize to fill her own secrets by revealing my secret.
“It may seem that way, but no. If you felt that… , Experiments also quit. “
“Her…”
The sound of a word full of collapse.
“The words I said to me… Are you so in your mind? To call me at night and meet me? “
“Yes.”
The immediate answer is that the end of the question is scary.
“I swear because of orphans… , I shouldn’t do it. Especially for me. “
“What is the reason why Han Joo -hee Hunter shouldn’t do even more.”
For the first time today, her speech was blocked.
She seemed to hesitate for a while was to make people crazy.
“My husband was similar to you.”
Kim Do -jin endured her anger and asked her.
“… So, Hunter Son Si-woo is also an orphan, so you who live with him shouldn’t insult the orphan even more… , Sounds that way, right?”
Han Joo -hee nods quietly.
‘I’m crazy, really…’
Since when did he pretend to be such a hypocrite that he cared so much about her husband?
“Do you remember the question I asked during the last experiment?”
Han Joo-hee shakes her head with a clouded complexion.
“… I asked if the rumors about my husband and I being a show-window couple were true.”
“I also remember what Hunter Han Joo-hee said back then.”
“…”
Her mouth is finally closed.
She may have felt it too.
How hypocritical it is to say that I shouldn’t curse at her orphan even more because my husband is an orphan, even though I said that the show window is living as her husband and wife.
“Ah~ Even a show window couple keeps what they need to protect, what kind of mindset is that?”
Twisted and twisted emotions are contained in the tone of voice.
She smiles bitterly and shakes her head.
“Well.”
I really didn’t know why, so it wasn’t a word I put in my mouth.
It just means she doesn’t want to answer her own question.
“Whatever the reason … , I want to apologize for my mistake at the time.”
Contrary to his mind trying to dig in somehow, he ended up returning to the starting point.
On the contrary, her heart ached from the awkward digging.
Even though the years I’ve lived under one blanket puts to shame, I have no way of knowing that woman’s heart.
“Whoa…”
Kim Do -jin sighs to shake off his frustrated chest.
Still emotional, he asked in a much more dumb tone than a while ago.
“Is it just an apple to me.”
At that time, Kim Do -jin was not the only one who hurt her.
Son Seo -yeon, as well as his sister, was quite hurt by the appearance of my sister.
Then she struggles with her words.
“To the two too… I will apologize. “
One day, the word without the word omitted.
Kim Do-jin shook his head as Han Joo-hee made it harder to say that she was going to apologize to the two of them than to say that she was sorry to me who was no different.
I don’t know.
Is it so hard to say I’m sorry to my family?
Emerged at the same time.
How to get her head a little bit.
“I will do this.”
“… ?”
“Seo Yeon senior, teacher… So, apologize to her brother first. “
Then, her unfamiliar light becomes darker.
He spoke with his comfortable expression and tone.
“The deadline… Until the end of Kraken. I will receive my apology again. “
I was looking at the hard expression, so it seemed to be breathing in her stuffy chest.
Apart from her feelings, it was a suggestion that Kim Do -jin stopped or not.
If you accept this offer, at least the words you brought out while mentioning her husband are not lies, I just think.
Kim Do -jin learned looming what she wanted.
I wish she would be more frustrated and troubled.
Incomparable to now, very many.
