Leveling
Ch 144s

Because of the incident, many people roamed the school like bees.

"My son is still at school"

"Surge"

"I'll see what happens"

"Oh my God"

Without the control of the police and the Association, the scene turned into a commotion.

And to the reporters, once they heard the news, they ran straight away

looking for information.

"Uh? Sung Jin Woo's"

"Excuse me"

Jin Woo secretly approaches those who appear to be Association officials to avoid the view of the crowd.

Then the man thought,

'I felt terrified when I saw Jin Woo, the expression he showed earlier looked like bad news'.

"Hunter Sung Jin Woo"

"What about my sister?"

"Sung Jin Ah has been taken to Ilshin Hospital in Seoul with other students"

"...."

Jin Woo responded with a nod, and then turned around.

Then he went through the crowd like the wind.

That's slight....

According to the Association's instructions, the first thing the Hunters had to find was the condition

Sung Jin Ah, who is the younger brother of Rank-S Hunter Sung Jin Woo.

And lucky for the team, it turns out the main target is safe.

No injuries except scratches on his neck and wrists.

It was Hunter Sung Jin Woo who saved him.

That makes the pressure the team feels decreases.

But - but

What will happen if Jin Woo doesn't make it in time?

The Association employee shivered thinking about it.

It's my luck.

In contrast to the relief of the employee, Jin Woo pulled out his phone with a heavy heart.

His mother must have heard the news, too.

Many students were killed by the monsters.

Of course, even if she was a stoic mother, if she heard this news, she would,

I'm sure he'll faint.

"Before that happens, I'll tell her if Jin Ah is safe"

Just as Jin Woo was about to look for his mother's number while thinking like that, he heard a voice

surprising from behind him.

"I've sent my subordinates to inform Hunter's mother Sung Jin Woo, and they may

I'm going to the hospital right now"

Jin Woo looked back.

"Chairman"

Go Gun-hee stood there with a dark face, just like Jin Woo.

Even if he is innocent, he seems to feel responsible for failing to prevent

disaster as chairman of the Korean Hunter Association.

Meanwhile, Jin Woo expressed his gratitude because Gunhee had already noticed

his family.

But, Go Gun-hee shook her head.

"You're the one who should be thanking you"

Seventeen students.

It was all thanks to Jin Woo that they could be saved.

"We always owe you”

Hearing that, Jin Woo laughed bitterly.

If I can come by using the [Shadow Exchange], I might be able to save

and more students.

Very unfortunate.

Go Gun-Hee can also vaguely sense what Jin Woo is thinking when he sees the expression

her face.

But he shook his head.

This is no time to be sentimental.

Is there nothing I can say?

Go Gunhee then looked up.

"Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Jin Woo remembers Gates in Gwangalli for a while, then ignores him.

His whereabouts have disappeared.

That means Shadow Soldier's ants, including 『Ber』, have already cleared the Dungeon.

"Well, he's no ordinary soldier"

So now Jin Woo did not have to worry about the Raid Guild Knight.

"Yes"

"Then we'll use my car"

"No problem"

"Follow me, I want to tell you something"

Jin Woo, who felt it would be impolite to refuse, nods at the Chairman's suggestion.

"All right"

Jin Woo is mentored by the Chairman of the association and climbs up and sits in the back of the car.

Although it is a sizable sedan, Go Gun-hee, who is big, and Jin Woo, who has a

wide shoulders, feeling the back seat is fully filled.

Woo Jin-cheol, who is in the driver's seat, greets Jin Woo through the glass.

Jin Woo also bowed as a greeting.

The wheels of the car then moved slowly, and the Chairman looked hesitant as he wanted to speak.

"... maybe this accident was foreseen"

Go Gunhee's face looked dark.

And, being Jin Woo is very curious.

Does the Association ignore preventable accidents?

Just before Jin Woo gets angry, the president of the association pulls out his phone and shows Jin Woo something.

There's a graphic on his phone screen.

"This is an increase in the number of Gates who have appeared in Seoul in the last six months"

The points that pull the gentle curves rise sharply as they approach the current time.

"And this is for the statistics that are happening all over the world"

If the chairman doesn't explain it, Jin Woo feels he'll see it wrong.

"Gates is emerging exponentially around the world"

The face of the Chief then became darker.

"But isn't this weird?"

Go Gunhee put her phone into the inner pocket of her jacket, and then said,

"Lately, there are more and more people trying to check their awakening rate"

Gates is increasing, and the number of Hunters who will clean Gates is also increasing?

Is it like trying to balance each other?

The Association Chairman continued in a confused voice as he looked at Jin Woo's interested expression.

"Something's gonna change"

Even if it is just his personal opinion.

Go Gun-hee remains saka deducing a long explanation in such a manner.

"That's what I want to think about"

Jin Woo nodded.

It was interesting, but, if he knew that something was going to happen.

There was nothing Jin Woo could do right now.

And the Association Chairman.

Especially if it is only based on data and opinions alone, is not enough if you say it

by telephone.

Jin Woo thinks he's wasting his time.

"Then, what do you want to show me?"

The Association Chief who heard that lifted the suitcase he had placed under his feet as if

if he had been waiting for it and then took out the documents that were inside.

"From Japan, the United States, China, Russia, France, England, Germany, and the Middle East"

All of the so-called were countries that had great power.

And it is a document containing official requests from those countries, who want to

hunter Sung Jin Woo.

And there may also be some contact with unofficial routes.

"In fact, the Hunter Association did not have the authority to stop them, and so did they

already protecting your information according to your request"

Jin Woo continued to listen silently.

"All decisions depend on the choice of Hunter Sung Jin Woo .... If you want to go, I just

have a feeling that our country will not be able to adapt to this change"

Instead of answering, Jin Woo turned his head out the window.

And in his vision, the huge building of a large hospital began to be seen.

It was the hospital where Jin Ah was treated.

"I'll give you as much comfort as I can"

Go Gun-hee stuffed the document back into her bag and asked with a glance

nervously.

"So why don't you just stay in Korea?"

**

The Raid Knight team followed the ants to the entrance to the boss room.

Jung Yoon-tae widens her eyes as she looks at the ants that are starting to enter the boss room.

"You have to stop that, sir"

"...I'm not sure I can do that"

Raid will stop here if the boss is killed and to persuade the monsters to give the team time to collect the corpses and magic cores, that is......

Park Jong-soo sighed.

Just finish this.

What he thought then changed.

This was Gates who was also a marker of whether a Guild Knight could stay alive or not.

And it was enough if they could show that they could clear the A-Rank Gates without any members being killed or injured.

'No Hunter Sung Jin Woo'

Would people know what was going on inside the Dungeon?

Even if the ants killed the boss, one would only remember the Knight's name, not the creature

the call that Hunter Sung Jin Woo called and left.

If the boss is killed and Gates shuts down, there's no way to confirm that either.

Park Jong-soo's face, which was very crazy, started to show a smile.

'That's not a bad idea, is it?'

But then.

The Hunters behind him became noisier.

"I heard a lot of footsteps from behind, boss"

"Yes, I can hear it too"

"Yes"

Park tilted her head and walked back.

Of course there are a lot of footsteps.

Has the gathering team arrived?

But, the Guild Knight's skilled gathering team would not simply enter before obtaining

instructions.

At the time Park kept thinking about it.

"Huck"

Park Jong-soo's eyes widen.

The Undead Monster, which had not been eaten by ants, returned in motion.

Don't tell me ...?

Do ants know this and therefore they eat it?

Waita minute.

Park then shouted in haste as she realized many things.

"Everyone, hurry up and go to the boss' room"

The only hope he can rely on right now is the summoned creature left behind by Hunter Sung Jin Woo.

The Hunters then jumped into the boss room without checking what was in the boss room.

Park Jong-soo, who confirmed that all the teams were already inside, shouted.

"Block the entrance."

Jeong then blocked the entrance to the boss room with a 'Holy Wall' Skill'.

Wh-bang!

Wh-bang!

The voice of the Death Knight who was on the frontline struck the invisible wall fiercely.

Jeong Ye-rim, who is full of cold sweat on her forehead, turns to Park Jong-soo.

"Hey, I can't hold this for more than five minutes"

"I know."

Park Jong-soo and the rest of the team are done preparing for battle if the walls open.

But looking at the Undead, who were gathered like worms on the wall, he wondered if there would be a chance for them.

"Before that, we should expect the summoned creature to kill the boss and take us out

from here"

Park stared back at the ants facing the boss excitedly.

I hope it's an easy boss.

'Oh my God'

Eyes widened.

The ant-facing monster is the famous Undead that Park Jong-soo knows well.

The pale-faced mage in a cloth robe.

The Arc Lich.

It was the worst undead-type Monster, which was also said to be at the top of undead monsters.

'Arc Lich'

Park Jong-soo's face darkens.

He wanted the summoned creatures to defeat the boss and immediately help them, but his opponent was

Arc Lich's.

It would be more realistic to clean the Undead at the door and help the summoned creatures later.

But - but

『Ber』 takes steps towards Arc Lich.

The Arc Lich then summoned a dozen Death Knights around the ants and surrounded them.

"Kiee e e e-e-e-e-e-e-e."

『Ber』, who roared, raised his nails. ...?

Arc Lich recognized the black steam coming out from his body, and his black eyes seemed to widen momentarily.

"The Shadow Army"

It came out from the mouth of the Arc Lich using the language of monsters.

『Ber』 pulled his nails when he heard those words.

"What's wrong?" Tanya Arch Lich, who saw the ants behind 『Ber』, curiously.

"Why did the King's direct army attack us?"

Kick -

『Ber』 made a voice like a mocking sound and put his hand on his chest.

"We were chosen by the King"

This time his hand turned to the Arc Lich.

"And you weren't chosen"

"I'm sorry."

Arc Lich sounded angry, as if he could not believe what 『Ber』 said.

"No way! I'll ask King himself— ”

But before Arc Lich is finished,『Ber』 appears in front of him. ...!

Arc Lich's shoulder twitches.

『Ber』 is a monster created by the owner of Dungeon Rank-S, a powerful person.

Even if he who was currently a Shadow Soldier's had a slight decline on

his ability, he was no match for the Lich Arc, the Rank-A Dungeon Boss.

『Ber』 put his hand on Arc Lich chest admirably.

Stab!

His hand pierced through his chest along with the pendant hanging on the neck of the Arc Lich.

"Sir"

A pendant was now in that hand behind the Arc Lich. The locket also plays a role

as the heart with which is rich.

And it is not so difficult for 『Ber』 to absorb it, which used to be the highest level of Moster.

Arc Lich then shook his head.

"Oh no-"

But 『Ber』 doesn't care about the cries of the enemy, and 『Ber』 gives strength to his hands

who holds the locket.

Creaks.

"You should have died"

With a word of 『Ber』, the body of the Arc Lich collapsed.
