Chapter 1715 – 1715. Hunter Vs Vampire
Ju Seo-hyun, having killed the Vampire Lord Yoon Seo-jin, stabbed herself in the heart with her sword and committed suicide. A nuclear missile fell on her corpse.
I was next to Ju Seo-hyun. I was always next to her. Of course, Ju Seo-hyun didn’t notice me.
‘It’s a shame to lose Moonlight Sonata 7 here. I wonder if I can recover it?’
Right now, I couldn’t use most of my skills and traits.
For example, in the case of Complete Recovery, even though the cooldown time had passed, I couldn’t use it in this world.
[Complete Recovery cannot be used.]
However, I could use an instant.
[Using Instant. Remaining stacks: 6]
The world slowed down, and I could move quickly. But I couldn’t affect this world.
‘I should try. Reverse Summon.’
Just before the nuclear missile fell, Moonlight Sonata 7, which was stuck in Ju Seo-hyun’s chest, disappeared and entered my inventory.
‘I succeeded!’
I was lucky. It would have been a shame to lose this sword here.
Then, the nuclear missile hit the ground, causing a massive explosion.
It was obvious who was behind the nuclear missile. The company. They must have seen Ju Seo-hyun’s power after she became a vampire and fired the nuclear missile. Honestly, if I were the company, I wouldn’t have been confident in defeating Ju Seo-hyun with any method other than a nuclear missile. Since the bomb necklace didn’t work, they had to use a nuke.
Of course, that was a very unpleasant thing to do.
‘Ju Seo-hyun committed suicide, so the nuclear missile was a waste.’
The person who insisted on the nuclear missile must have been Deputy Manager Kang Myung-sook. She’s the type of woman who would do anything to kill a vampire.
Even if it was a small-yield nuke, it was still a nuke. It would affect the cities and towns nearby. Not to mention the casualties. The surrounding countries of Romania would also be in an uproar.
‘Kang Myung-sook will have to take responsibility for that. It’s obvious. Kang Myung-sook will be finished.’
The company would discipline Kang Myung-sook. A nuclear missile was too big of an incident to hide everything. The company might be able to manipulate public opinion, but…
‘The vampire bastards have definitely planted people in the company. It’s obvious, seeing how even Kwak Soo-hyuk met Yoon Seo-jin and became a vampire.’
The vampires wouldn’t stay still. They would expose this situation somehow, and the company’s credibility would plummet.
‘Well, it’s none of my business anymore.’

…
Back in reality, I checked the Blood Compass and my points.
[Seo Yu-jin
Level: 87
Strength: 120 Stamina: 113 Agility: 110 Intelligence: 110 Vitality: 120 Mana: 120]
[Available Points: 12,977]
I had accumulated about 2,000 points. It was less than I expected, but it wasn’t bad.
‘It’s like slowly saving money in a bank account.’
Old memories came to mind. The days when I sighed while looking at my bank account. After awakening the game life app, that never happened again. Instead, I sighed while looking at my points.
[Blood Compass
Use by dropping the target’s blood on the compass.
The Blood Compass tracks the owner of the blood.
Single use.
Price: 10,000 points
※Caution
The effect disappears if the tracked target dies.]
The Blood Compass looked like an ordinary compass. Only in appearance. Even when I moved the compass around, the needle didn’t move. There were no direction markings either.
‘Well, I don’t need it right now.’
After checking what I had obtained, I prepared to enter another game world.
God’s Atlantis.
I was so curious about how Ju Seo-hyun was doing now.
• • •
“……!”
Ju Seo-hyun’s eyes snapped open. She sat up in bed, clutching her head and groaning.
A slight headache and vivid memories of a dream surfaced.
She had become a vampire hunter in another world. No, in that place, they called vampire hunters company workers. She had joined a company specializing in dealing with vampires and worked there for a year. She had even received the nickname Jaeger. She had met Seo Yu-jin.
“Ugh…”
Ju Seo-hyun groaned.
Seo Yu-jin was Seo Yu-jin even in the dream. Who would have thought she would be violated by Seo Yu-jin even in a dream?
‘…It wasn’t just about being violated by Seo Yu-jin.’
They became partners, worked together, and spent their breaks together. It was like living together as lovers. But that period was only a few months.
Seo Yu-jin died trying to save her from the Vampire Lord. In the dream, she was sad and angry at the same time. She became a vampire to avenge Seo Yu-jin, and in the end, after dealing with that vampire, she committed suicide.
After dying, she seemed to have seen something falling from the sky. She remembered something cutting through the dark sky with light.
‘…Was it a meteor?’
She couldn’t tell exactly what it was.
She sighed, rummaging through her memories. It felt too real for a dream. Was it really just a dream?
Soon, Ju Seo-hyun frowned. With each breath she took, the pain lessened, and at the same time, the vivid dream was fading. No matter how desperately she tried to recall the dream, it was useless. Eventually, she would just think that she had had such a dream.
‘It feels bad.’
It wasn’t about what happened with Seo Yu-jin in the dream. It was just a dream anyway. It didn’t matter what she and Seo Yu-jin did there. What made her feel bad was the fading memories. It felt like someone was stealing her memories.
“Hiss…”
Ju Seo-hyun got out of bed. Her body felt stiff, perhaps due to the dream. She moved her body and felt that something was off. It was as if she was moving this body for the first time in a long time… It felt like something was overflowing, yet lacking.
‘When I became a vampire in the dream, I gained the ability to control blood. That sensation of controlling blood is still vivid.’
She sighed. In the end, it was just a dream. Since it was a dream, it was meaningless.
Ju Seo-hyun checked the time. 7 AM. Perhaps because of the dream, she woke up later than usual. But she couldn’t skip her usual morning training.
She picked up the sword that was next to her bed. It was one of her favorite swords. In the dream, it was broken beyond repair while fighting the Vampire Lord.
‘The sword is fine. It was just a dream after all.’
She went down to the underground training room. It was a personal training room just for her. It wasn’t very large, but it was enough for sword training.
Swish!
She swung her sword.
With each swing, the memories of the dream were gradually fading. It was as if she was cutting away the memories with her sword.
Ju Seo-hyun gritted her teeth.
It’s a dream.
It’s just a dream.
There was no reason to be so distracted. She wouldn’t try to recall the dream. But if she didn’t recall the dream… wouldn’t she forget it completely? She didn’t like that.
Click!
The door opened.
Ju Seo-hyun immediately frowned. There was only one person who would enter the training room without knocking.
“Oh. You’re here again today.”
It was Seo Yu-jin. He was grinning slyly.
“…What are you here for?”
“What do you think I’m here for?”
“You must have come with some dirty purpose.”
“You don’t have the right to refuse. You know that, right? If you want to refuse, you have to beat me.”
“I’ll definitely win next time.”
Ju Seo-hyun said, growling. Seo Yu-jin just kept grinning, even though he felt the murderous intent in her voice.
“That’s what you always say.”
Ju Seo-hyun noticed that he was different from usual. Normally, he would have pounced on her like a beast in heat. She, having lost in the last battle, wouldn’t be able to resist.
“Actually.”
Seo Yu-jin slowly approached. Ju Seo-hyun narrowed her eyes. For a moment, the memories of the dream overlapped with the current Seo Yu-jin.
“I got a pretty good item outside this time.”
“…A pretty good item? What does that have to do with me?”
“I thought it would suit you.”
“You must have brought another weird toy.”
He must have brought an adult toy. It would be a disgusting toy to look at. The thought of being toyed with by Seo Yu-jin made her anger and hatred surge again. In a way, she might have to thank this Seo Yu-jin. He always reawakened her desire for revenge in this way.
“I’ll definitely kill you.”
“Yeah, yeah. A gift for you.”
Seo Yu-jin pulled out a sword from thin air. Ju Seo-hyun’s eyes widened as if they would tear apart when she saw the sword.
Seo Yu-jin grinned and swung the sword dangerously. She couldn’t take her eyes off the sword that seemed to resemble moonlight.
“That sword…”
“I worked hard to get it this time. It’s called Moonlight Sonata 7. It’s an S-rank sword.”
“…Why are you giving me such a great sword?”
He scratched his head and said,
“I had a strange dream today. You were in the dream. You and I worked at a place called a company, and we were vampire hunters. Well, it’s hazy now… In the dream, I gave you this sword at the end. Maybe it’s like a revelation or something. So, I’m going to give it to you.”
“……”
Ju Seo-hyun’s eyes trembled violently. She and Seo Yu-jin had the same dream. Why?
“…Maybe it wasn’t a dream.”
“What are you talking about? Here, take the sword.”
Ju Seo-hyun grabbed the sword and trembled. Her head lowered. The sensation of holding this sword… It was similar to the sensation she felt in the dream. Was it really a dream? Was it just a dream?
While Ju Seo-hyun was lost in thought, Seo Yu-jin’s hand touched her cheek. Ju Seo-hyun looked up. Seo Yu-jin’s face came closer, and he kissed her.
She quietly accepted the kiss. Seo Yu-jin’s kiss was still rough. He was trying to devour her like a beast. She couldn’t just let him have his way. Ju Seo-hyun also moved her mouth and resisted Seo Yu-jin. The sound of their tongues mixing filled the training room.
「The sword is worried that you will lose your revenge.」
「The sword advises that you must not lose your desire for revenge!」
「The sword hopes that its advice reaches you!」
Lose my desire for revenge?
That can’t be.
She was just being toyed with by Seo Yu-jin because she lost a bet.
‘If I get a chance, I will definitely…!’
Ju Seo-hyun closed her eyes, making a vow. Her body began to heat up.
