Chapter 218 – – The King of Monsters –
After the conversation with Jeong Beop-ho, the president of the association, was over. Seong Ye-han was lost in thought in a separate room.
Now they are in quarantine.
The fact that the area of A-class monsters investigated by Sung Ye-han, Ha Yeon-woo, and Park I-rae was contaminated with ‘mias’ was a fact so obvious that it did not need to be proven, so it was a natural measure.
The reason why Ha Yeon-woo felt so tired… It was because Ha Yeon-woo was bearing the burden of Suho’s blessing, which had been hanging over the three since the beginning of hunting, constantly resisting the ‘miso’.
It would be a different story if there were traces of the Guardian Blessing being broken by an attack that exceeded the limit, or the damage being more powerful and clearly… Like when receiving attacks from other monsters, light dust scattering. I will.
It was because Ha Yeon-woo’s strength was constantly being consumed by the miasma that quietly seeped in like a piece of paper submerged in water on one side and the fight of blessings that blocked him.
The monster didn’t even appear in this world, but the shadow alone caused this phenomenon…
Even though he had never seen his face yet, Seong Ye-han felt that he was definitely a different opponent from the ones he had seen so far.
“Two of the three S-rankers are dead…”
The face of the president of the association, who had spoken those words calmly, came to mind again.
Years healed his wounds, and now even the scabs have disappeared and new skin has sprouted, but the scars that still remain are engraved on the giant’s face, which looks as if it will stand firm forever.
‘Can I… Too?’
Seong Ye-han thought of his lovers when he said that he disliked other S-class hunters.
It was a raid of S-class monsters.
Not one can be left out…
Maybe one of them will die… Or else they will get a mortal wound.
‘I can’t.’
The saint could never have let it go that way.
Just in time, her own body boasted a morale-level performance that was strong, strong, and capable of self-healing.
He also had the Jeongbeop Ho, who would set the vanguard with him.
As he said, there was definitely a big difference between the time when there were only three of them and now when there were only five of them.
In addition, did the president of the association say that at that time he did not have a good relationship?
In that respect, our compatibility is not bad.
The S-class monsters that have been investigated so far are certain to be poison-type monsters…
Needless to say, Ha Yeon-a is an enemy of mutual love, and unexpectedly, Ye-hwa could also have been of good character.
Yehwa’s ability is a dual attribute of ice and fire, a mixture of opposites.
You’ll have to meet that S-class monster to know how it will work, but… It won’t be a prediction that just burns the happiness circuit.
The odds are clear…
“I am…”
Seong-ye Han, she felt sweat soaking through her palms before she knew it.
“Under-“
Are you nervous? Or are you afraid?
Until recently, he was an E-class braggart… He trained and hunted monsters after becoming S-class, but he never really felt the danger of his life.
What could an adult have felt from a simple twist of a child’s wrist?
Sung Ye-han did not think of himself as a great person.
He’s just a lucky guy…
But whatever he was, he didn’t want to be a coward.
Shouldn’t she at least be able to carry her face in front of her lovers?
With that promise, Seong Ye-han lay down on the bed.
Unlike the hastily prepared containment room, a soft and fluffy texture surrounds him.
The ceiling looked up naturally.
Several faces shimmered on the bare beige wallpaper.
Seong Ye-han could never give up… She was the face she wanted to live with forever.

“Whoa-“
Best hunter.
The one who never falls
Carrying the name of ‘Geumgang’, which means eternity…
Jung Beop-ho sat in his office and let out a deep breath.
Even though I talked like it was nothing in front of the newcomers.
But even now, he is sometimes startled whenever he sees a burning flame.
The destructive heat that filled the world in the past still remained in a corner of his heart.
In the past…
He said that the compatibility was not good, and at that time there was no proper monster response system, so it was more difficult because of the heating in Jung-gu.
It was clearly true.
Needless to say, the appearance of S-class monsters at that time was truly unprecedented, so even after seeing the omens, they did not prepare for anything, even if they had weak anxiety because they did not know what it was.
It was a time when everything… Literally everything was lacking.
Hunters’ skills, information… Everything.
Jeong Beop-ho and his fellow S-rank hunters were forced to fight against the S-rank monsters that suddenly greeted them from the start.
Behind it is a huge urban area with a population of more than 10 million.
Even a slight push could kill hundreds of thousands of people.
Without any strategic or tactical options, there was no choice but to break it head-on… Tragedy.
“It’s different now… Yes. Different…”
Pududeuk-
The armrests of the chair specially designed to match Jeong’s physical abilities screamed at his power, but Jung didn’t care.
Unlike the past, the system is built.
Even if it’s just a thin spider’s web in front of a huge disaster called an S-class monster… The difference between a disaster that you already know and want to prepare for and a disaster that you were hit with without knowing anything was painful to say.
And the power is different.
Unlike the time when Jung Beop-ho himself was the only vanguard… No matter how much he wanted to collapse, needed a break, and felt like he was about to die, it was impossible to even step back, let alone take a shift… There is someone less burdensome.
That alone made Jeongbeop-ho feel the weight on his shoulders considerably lessen.
Even if Sung Ye-han was frightened by the majesty of an S-class monster he had never seen before, it didn’t matter.
Enduring until he comes to his senses is the duty of a senior…
And even if it wasn’t Seong Ye-han, there was also Shin Ye-hwa.
If it were a rookie flower in the past… Jeong Beop-ho would not have been very trustworthy, but she was different now.
At the very least, the value of Shinhwa has risen sharply just by not being temperamental in front of monsters.
Also, what about the rearguard?
Ha Yeon-ah’s presence alone makes people feel at ease.
She is a healer and buffer, but also capable of fire support… In the old days, if she had a talent like Ha Yeon-ah, there would never have been any misfortune that two of the three would die.
Yeo Seon-hee could be said to be the person she believed the most among the three.
He is a child who protects people more diligently than anyone else even though he always says that he is not a big deal… He is not a good person, he just works as much as he receives.
Telekinesis is, by its very nature, a power that is not compatible.
As long as the person with the ability doesn’t run out of control, it’s the ability to pay for a meal in any situation.
“If you have this much equipped…”
It’s worth a try.
Beyond simply blocking, you can perfectly beat the monster without anyone dying.
Jeong Beop-ho thud! Thump! He felt his heart beat and pressed his lips together.
“You can do it.”
We… This time will never go through the same dark times as then.
I won’t recall the pain of that time.
***
Ha Yeon-ah looked at the face of the man who was still asleep.
What a surprise she was when she heard that her older sister, Lee Rae, and Yehan had returned from investigating the poisonous area.
As soon as I heard the news, I wanted to run right away and pour out the power of purification, but I couldn’t bear to let those who were standing at the crossroads of life and death in front of my eyes.
Had he not heard that the three of them were in very good health, Ha Yeon-ah really thought he had no idea what would have happened to him.
Perhaps if the three of them had collapsed… Ha Yeon-ah would not have been able to forgive herself.
He would blame himself even if he knew it wasn’t his fault.
He’s moral, he’s responsible, so even if it’s for giving a dog, he should have gone after the three of them.
Anyway.
I almost shed tears when I found out that the power of her older sister, who had always protected her from the past, had worked hard this time as well.
When I dealt with the most urgent patients first and saw the three of them again. It was a great comfort to Ha Yeon-ah that the three of them were remarkably healthy.
Still, after pouring out the purification once in a while, Ha Yeon-a was finally able to properly hear what was going on.
In the meantime, she was so focused on taking care of her patients that she had no time for outside work. At that time, she wanted to go see Seong Ye-han and her older sister Lee Rae after attaching the lifelines of the ‘Eternal’ guild or whatever.
After reuniting with the three, the story she finally heard… Was serious even for Ha Yeon-ah.
“S-class monster raid…”
Ha Yeon-ah thought as she gently stroked the face of her beloved lover.
Unlike himself… This man who is damn strong, strong, and possessing overwhelming physical abilities will definitely have to fight at the forefront.
A position where you have to enter before anyone else and come out later than anyone else…
It was Ha Yeon-ah, already one of the people who knew his strength best, but I couldn’t help but worry.
Dealing with S-class monsters was an enemy that even S-class hunters could not guarantee their lives.
A monster among monsters. Transcending the limits of such a monster and becoming a living disaster… That was an S-class monster.
Although Ha Yeon-ah has not experienced it herself… Just looking at the records of the past makes me guess the danger.
‘Never… I don’t want to lose.’
Although the beginning was shocking, he was now an indispensable person in his life.
Not just virtuous, but others too.
If any of them die… I will bring them back, even if they cross the river of death.
No.
I wouldn’t let him die no matter what in the first place.
Ugh-
In Ha Yeon-ah’s hand, the golden light that had formed according to her will shimmered.
It is the strength to not lose a loved one.
The power to protect them and heal them…
“Never.”
The golden eyes that had made that promise shone more firmly than ever before.
