Evolution Theory of the Hunter - Chapter 106

Chapter 106

“Who is that?”

“The bastards that went in first most likely . ”

“Is it safe there?”

“I don’t know! Is that really what important right now?”

“They’re coming from behind!”

From where the hunters had just come out, Mukamukas and Tutulips appeared .

“Gaaah!”

“Save me!”

A hunter that was caught by a Tutulips grabbed Won Jong-tak’s foot .

“F, fuck! Piss off!”

“Save…… . ”

“God damn it!”

“Ahhhh!”

Won Jong-tak swung his sword to cut off the hand of the hunter holding his leg .

Such a scene was happening in several places . It was not a situation where they could help .

The ones that barely survived by betraying and feeding their allies to the monsters’ mouth all threw themselves into the water .

Splash! Splash!

The hunters that swam the 30 meters in a single breath and took in a deep breath and collapsed on the ground .

The ones who barely survived were 4 .

They all looked quite exhausted . Among them, 2 were faces I knew .

Won Jong-tak and Song Han-sol .

“It seems those things know how to swim though?”

Soo-ah pointed towards the lake .

Dozens of monsters were crossing the water and coming towards us .

“Damn it . Everybody prepare for battle!”

I held up my sword getting ready to attack, but for some reason they just hung around in the water and didn’t come up to the landmass .

“What……?”

“It seems to be because of that stone statue . ”

Han Joon-suk said . We didn’t know the reason, but it seems they were too afraid to come up to this landmass .

What is this stone statue for them to be so afraid of it .

“That’s funny . ”

Edward said .

“What are you saying is funny?”

“Aren’t we trapped here without a place to run to?”

“We won’t have any trouble escaping . ”

“Certain . That is true . ”

He started nodding as if he only just remembered the existence of the Escape Scroll .

Won Jong-tak who had collapsed on the ground looking at the Mukamukas and Tutulips surround the landmass suddenly raised his head .

“There’s a way to escape this place?”

Even in such a situation he hears everything he needs huh .

“None of your business . ”

“Damn it . Do you not feel the urgency of the situation even while looking at that? We can’t stay here forever . ”

“The management team will come if we wait . Who told you to recklessly come in here?”

“Damn it . You think I came in here because I wanted to?”

Won Jong-tak grinded his teeth while glancing at Song Han-sol .

He was looking at the ground with tired eyes with half of his equipment missing .

The proud look that he had shown before was nowhere to be seen .

“They’re doomed . Definitely doomed . Looks like the number of dead people is over 10 and if you add the lost equipment wow…… I wonder how much that is?”

At Soo-ah’s words Won Jong-tak turned his head and started shouting at her .

“This crazy bitch…… If you don’t want to get killed shut your damn mouth!”

Bam!

Won Jong-tak’s head spun around as he rolled on the ground .

Soo-ah who had suddenly appeared while holding up a fist started talking .

“That guy isn’t a friend right?”

“Yep . He’s not . You did well . ”

If she hadn’t hit him then I would have . And if I had then it wouldn’t have ended with mere bruises like that .

The other side’s hunters got up while faltering .

It seems they were tense at the sudden violence . However looking at their state, they probably didn’t even have the strength to walk .

I summoned Thor’s Hammer and dropped it on the ground after a few light swings .

Boom!

“Huh?”

“Wh, what?”

“That was something heavy?”

It was some light showmanship but the hostility in their eyes disappeared completely .

It might be a little immature but I have to cut down their moral from the beginning if I don’t want them to start a fight .

Then, Song Han-sol’s line of sight reached me for the first time .

“You are…… . ”

“Ah . Did you finally recognize me?”

“It’s that bastard from before . Though you died . ”

“Is that so? Did Park Jung-bae not tell you that I was alive?”

“How long do you think it’s been since that Jung-bae bastard died . ”

“What?”

I thought he wouldn’t do anything dangerous since he had a fair amount of money .

“He went to that Yellow Sea or whatever and came back as a corpse .

“Well…… It’s the natural consequence of one’s deed I suppose . ”

I didn’t think I wanted to feel any pity because he had died . You never knew when a hunter would die and the Yellow Sea was especially dangerous .

He could have lived off of inheriting his parents’ business but he dug his own grave by going their on his own .

“Save me . ”

“What……?”

“If you get me out of here I’ll give you whatever you want . I’ll give you all the items if you want them . Fuck…… If you want money then I’ll give it to you after getting out . Please . Just let me leave here alive . ”

“……Why do I have to do so? I have a lot of money though?”

“I’m asking you . ”

“What bullshit is this?”

Is this guy not fully awake even in such a situation?

I was snickering while thinking so, but he suddenly took off and held his bag upside down .

Dozens of items fell on the ground . It wasn’t only that .

“All of you open your bags!”

“B, but…… . ”

“Shut up and do as I say . ”

“Yes…… . ”

At his command the hunters that were still alive all flipped their bags upside down .

Thereupon a bunch of ores and items had stacked up on the ground .

Song Han-sol slowly kneeled towards me and opened his mouth .

“I will give you everything . So please at least save my life . ”

The guy bowed down .

Damn . What kind of situation is this?

Poke poke .

Soo-ah poked me in the side . What is it I wonder?

“Accept it . ”

“What?”

Unusual . If it was about grudges with Song Han-sol then this girl has a lot more than me though .

I looked carefully at Soo-ah’s expression . Her eyes that were looking at Song Han-sol had no expression whatsoever in them .

Instead, she was using a calculator in her head trying to figure out how much those things would be worth .

The answer would soon come out since her head processed faster than mine when it came to money .

“If we add everything up it should be worth a few 100m . No, it won’t be that much considering the value of the items will fall but it will still be quite a bit . ”

“Are you okay with that?”

“I’m not okay . But I think that is enough as compensation . ”

“And an apology?”

“I don’t think that guy will apologize from the bottom of his heart . It might be interesting to see how well he can act but I don’t have a hobby of seeing such things . That’s why the apology will be in the form of money . ”

“Well, if you say so . ”

Although she said it like that she’s probably not actually alright . She just doesn’t want to waste any emotions on that guy .

I think that it’s a sensible decision . No, I shouldn’t say it so lightly .

It’s not like I can know her inner thoughts in its entirety . She might be crying on the inside while putting up a calm front .

“What are you looking at with such a pitying face?”

“Hm? Did I do that?”

“If I say that I’m fine then I’m fine . I’m saying this because senior brother wouldn’t know if I didn’t say every single thing as it is . ”

She pointed at Song Han-sol as she continued her words .

“I don’t care even a single bit about a guy like that . ”

“…… You’re an amazing person . ”

“Doesn’t love gush up within you?”

“That’s a no . ”

“I’m sorry for interrupting . There’s something that you should see . ”

Han Joon-suk said . Looking at the place he was pointing at, I could see a crimson ruby .

The size seemed perfect for shoving into the statue’s eye .

“This is……?”

Once I held the jewel in my hand Song Han-sol opened his mouth .

“Do you want that? Then take it . ”

“I’ll take all of it so don’t worry . ”

I gave the jewel to Edward . The guy nodded and flew up .

“What in the world are you trying to do?”

Won Jong-tak walked towards me with a swollen face . It was a bit pitiful to see him avoid Soo-ah after getting hit once .

However I couldn’t get the scene of this guy cutting his ally’s arm out of my mind .

My expression naturally crumpled up but he continued his words as if he didn’t realize .

“We can really leave here right?”

“We’ll have to see . What that is . It’s only a speculation but…… . ”

The stone statue that trembling once the jewel was put in its eye .

Edward hurriedly got away from the stone statue .

“……It doesn’t seem like we can leave so easily . ”

Crack!

As soon as the ruby was put in, the entire statue started vibrating and then slowly started cracking .

And then finally it crumbled .

“That is……?”

Han Joon-suk opened his mouth . It wasn’t that the stone statue had crumbled . It was just that the outer layer covered in rock was shed .

The that was left after completely shedding slowly moved its body and looked down at us .

A creature with a humans body as the top and a horses body below, a centaur .

[I am a Centaur Warrior Virun . I will grant the wish of the human that has awakened me . ] (Kyle: Virun is pronounced Vai-roon)

“A wish?”

What the hell was this all about?

“Please increase the number of wishes to 3!”

Before I could say anything Soo-ah yelled .

[That is disapproved . ]

“Eh, don’t be so narrow minded . ”

“…… Does that even make sense?”

“Then he shouldn’t have asked for a wish then . Or put some conditions . Like you cannot increase the number of wishes . Don’t you know you have to do that much if you don’t want to be sued?”

“I don’t think there’s a lawyer with enough nerves to sue that guy . ”

The guy’s height was 5 meters .

The landmass had a diameter of 20 meters which the guy was probably capable of going from one end to the other in a few steps .

If we had to fight with this guy, it would be a worst case scenario .

The Mukamukas and Tutulips were lurking in the water while there was a giant centaur in the middle of the island .

There was nowhere to run to . Was the escape scroll the only way as I thought?

No, since it said that it would grant a wish, it would be fine to talk appropriately .

“What do we have to do to clear this dungeon?”

[Is that your wish?]

“It’s just a question . ”

[I have no obligation to answer . ]

“Then just clear it . That is my wish . ”

[That is disapproved . ]

“Ah . I told you, that guy seriously has to be sued . ”

Soo-ah complained .

At this point I’m coming to agree with her .

He’s not doing anything for us and he’s saying he’ll grant our wish . I don’t have a clue why he’s saying such a thing if he’s going to be like that .

“Then what are you able to grant us?”

[I can kill anybody you want . ]

“Sure is a brutal genie of the lamp . ”

I don’t need such a wish though .

“How about asking it the way to clear the dungeon?”

Han Joon-suk said . That did seem to be the best choice .

“I will just ask as a wish . What do we have to do to clear the dungeon?”

[Offer me a sacrifice . ]

“A sacrifice?”

[That’s right . If you sacrifice a fresh human’s soul then I will let you clear this dungeon . ]

This was a bit weird . To have to offer a human to clear the dungeon .

Even if the dungeon was different from a normal dungeon this was far too different . At the very least, it didn’t feel like a normal method .

“I, I will offer a sacrifice!”

Song Han-sol suddenly yelled from behind . I was wondering what kind of bullshit he was talking about when the sound of something penetrating flesh could be heard .

“Arg…… this fucking…… . ”

A sword was pointing out after going through Won Jong-tak’s chest .
