SSS - Class Suicide Hunter
Chapter 7's
I searched for information about the Holy Sword on my phone.
initially, it was said that he was an elder from the rich old Northern European Conglomerate
His real name is Marcus Calenberry. It was somewhat regrettable, but it was said that he gave up his family, his connections and wealth and entered the tower alone.
no one knows exactly what skills he has.
– It is rumored that he has a habit of mumbling to himself.
I clicked my tongue.
“No useful information.”
I even searched for a video of the interview but could not find one. Apparently, this elder was completely the opposite of the Flame Emperor. Although he is famous for his bad personality, information about him can be found all over the internet.
On the other hand, the Holy Sword was a mystery.
The information on the internet about the Sacred Sword was extremely unclear. He appeared to be from a large wealthy family, supposedly entering the tower itself and it was rumored that he muttered to himself. All information is speculative.
‘What?’
I looked at the table in the corner. There, the Sacred Sword sat alone, drinking its milk vodka.
‘At least the information he talked to himself is correct.’
Old man with a strange sense of fashion. Sitting at the table with his strange drink and seemingly muttering to himself between his gulps.
“Silence. Don't be so noisy. First of all, you are.. ”.
Mumbled
I couldn't hear exactly what the old man said, but he seemed to spit with every word he said. It was a terrible sight and I couldn't help but be a little frightened.
“Does he suffer from psychosis?”
The number one hunter is psychotic. That in itself is scary. It was like having a nuclear bomb and not knowing when it would explode.
‘... No, if you think about it, Yoo Soo-ha is also a psychopath.’
Perhaps one of the requirements to be number one is mental illness.
“Almost all top ratings are psycho.”
I shook my head and continued to scour the internet for information. However, most of them are purely speculative. But as I continued to search, a post on the forum caught my attention.
– [Consideration!] NG1 Words you should not say in front of the Holy Sword!]
‘Hmm?’
That's an interesting title. The thread is posted on the Hunter Special Community website. A place to play, chat and share information that is only accessible to those with Bureau-issued Hunter Certificates. The post was done anonymously.
- I saw it myself. There are NG words that you should not say in front of the Sacred Sword unless you want to die!
└ What is it?
└ Anything about his family. A few days ago, several top-ranked hunters fought with Holy Swords, and one of them said
‘Looking at your current state, your grandchildren outside must be suffering.’
“I'm sure you like being alone because they don't dare to hold you back.”
“How ashamed of them to see you behave like this.”
- Then he died!
└ What? Died?!
└ Yes. He's murdered. In fact, he only managed to say, ‘How ashamed your grandson later.’ before his throat was cut. His head had been separated from his body in an instant.
The comments after that went wild.
don't be crazy.
- This is probably a rumor created by that big guild!
he did so well that people tried to step him back.
Most of the people who answered did not believe it, but the anonymous author was persistent.
believe it or not, I don't care! I just wanted to tell you, so I told you.
- Of course, I am not saying the Holy Sword is wrong. It was the fault of that person for mentioning his family. However, it was certain that some of those top powers were gnawing at him due to this incident. You can see it with the constant harassment directed at her in the media these days.
anyway, if you ever meet the Holy Sword. You should try it.
“... - Too hard. I'll take care of it myself, so leave me alone. ”
The old man had been muttering to himself ever since he sat down at the table. It looks like he has a mental illness. However, even though he was suffering from psychosis, he still stood on top of the world. The fact that this crazy old man had great skills beyond imagination remained unchanged.
‘Good.’
And that's pretty good for me.
‘It's worth a try.
A good drink.
“Ah, hope your trip is safe!”
The Holy Sword emptied its cup.
As soon as he left the store, all the customers collectively exhaled the breath they held.
He finally left.
“He must have dementia. Why does he keep muttering like that? ”
“I know. After all, the alcohol is no longer good.. ”.
All of the patrons might be waiting for the Sacred Sword to leave, as they all got up to leave at the same time as me.
However, our intention may be the opposite.
This is my pay for beer.
I immediately woke up and paid off my bill with the owner. I don't have time to waste
“Ah Yes. Thank ye. Come again!”
“The beer is good. I'll be.”
A date!
The bell on the door rang as I opened it and stepped out.
It was late at night and darkness covered the road.
‘Where are you going...?’
I looked around, there were a lot of people coming out of a lot of pubs on the street. Dozens of people laughed and staggered while enjoying the effects of alcohol under the night sky.
“Where Are You, First Master?”
Fortunately, after looking around for a while, I found the back I wanted.
‘Find You!’
It was all thanks to his unusual clothes. He was probably the only man in all of Babylon to wear a suit and carry a sword. I immediately calmed down and started following the old man.
‘What skills do you have?’
My heart is pounding.
‘Fire Emperor has a ridiculous regression skill which is a rank-ex-skill. So what skill does the Sacred Sword possess that was the strongest generation before? Didn't he have even more broken skills? ‘
That skill will soon be mine. If I'm lucky.
How long have I been chasing after this old man's back?
We had long since left the heart of the city and started walking through the back roads. As I continued to follow him, we left the alleys and back roads and entered the suburbs. Here, there was a field that had no buildings or construction marks.
The Sacred Sword walked through this empty field.
“Hmm.”
I walked a little more before stopping behind the tree.
“This place should be quite appropriate.”
The Sacred Sword turned around, with starlight bathing its old body.
“…”
No one knows what's going on in this place.
He stared right at the tree I was hiding behind. And I sighed in my heart.
“She caught me.”
I should have expected it. From the beginning, it was unreasonable to think that the strongest hunter would not know that he was being followed by a low-class hunter like me.
I could only blame my own incompetence as I walked out from behind the tree.
“Ah. Excuse um. There's something I want to ask you Sword Saint-nim. ”
I try to talk as polite as I can. But for some reason, the Sacred Sword laughed.
“Hahs. Haven't you been following me all this time? I don't know why you're so afraid to ask this old man a question. ”
“…”
Huh huh?
“For some reason. It seems like the Sacred Sword believes that I deliberately feigned fear. Moreover, since he turned around, the Sacred Sword did not release its sword hilt, even though I did nothing. It seemed like he was ready to attack at any moment.
‘Uh. Why?’
Of course, this is the best outcome for me, because my goal is for him to keep killing me.
‘But I haven't done anything but follow him ..’
Whether he knew my intentions or not, the Sacred Sword seemed ready to end my life. It was as if in his eyes, I was dead and he was just comforting me.
“... Your acting is amazing. Indeed, you must be an incredible killer. ”
“.... Yes? 2”
“You don't have to pretend to know. Another hunter might fall in love with her, but you can't fool my eyes. I know you are an assassin sent by the Black Dragon Guild
Uh…
Old man, you really misunderstood.
‘Should I like this or not?’
Anyway, this method works too. I don't need to talk about his grandson for him to kill me. Although I don't understand how he mistook an F-class hunter like me for an assassin. Honestly, I can't understand.
“Uh huh! You're really vile. Come here and act in front of me! ”
The Sacred Sword looked at me with a crooked mouth as if staring at the monster he had to get rid of. It was a very strange expression that I could not understand.
“Don't I tell you before? You can't fool my eyes. ”
“This. There's something I really want to ask you .. ”
Finally, I just asked what I wanted to know.
“What makes you so sure that I am a murderer? I didn't do anything to make you think that way. ”
“Diam.”
The shing!
The Holy Sword drew a sword at his side.
“I have many skills. Among them are skills that tell me how many people have been killed. Thanks to this, I was able to avoid many crises. ”
“…”
Whahuh? I still don't understand.
‘Ah.’
Then, a few seconds later, I realized.
‘I Killed Yoo Soo-ha.’
Exactly it.
I killed Yoo Soo-ha today because I knew she was going to be a monster, but people in this era didn't know that. So now I'm a murderer.
Unlike the outside world, murder happens quite often inside the tower.
“But murder is still murder.”
Dengan kata lain, di mata Pedang Suci, mungkin ada nomor [1] yang tergantung di atas kepalaku. Angka [1] akan menjadi indikator utama pembunuhan, jadi wajar jika Pedang Suci berjaga-jaga terhadapku.
“Yes, I understand Master Sacred Sword.”
“Hmmm.”
“Even if you are wary of me and I have nothing to say about that. You can take it as an excuse but listen. I'm following you for an important reason, I can't tell you what it really is but it's a very important reason. I swear by heaven. ”
It was a heart-wrenching statement. But the situation became strange instead of improving. As he listened to my short speech, the expression of the Sacred Sword became even worse.
“Agregnated.”
“Iya?”
“Devil who has killed as many people as you dare to act like that. I haven't lived a clean life, but. I've never done a reckless slaughter like you did! ”
His words made me confused and embarrassed.
“No. Waita minute. The massacre? I've only killed one person in my entire life. ”
“You are really shameless to tell blatant lies!”
Chick!
The Sacred Sword pointed its sword tip towards me and said,
“I can see the number [4091] hanging above your head.”
I'm dumbfounded.
“What... fuc..”
I tried asking “What the fuck is this?” but my words were cut short when I realized where the number 4091 came from.
‘Ah.’
It was from the one time I killed Yoo Soo-ha
And.
That's how many times I killed myself.”
4090 times.
How many times have I killed myself.
“Be prepared Devil!”
If so.
“I don't know if the Black Dragon Witch sent you or anyone else, but I will do my best to kill you!”
That meant in the old man's eyes, I was just a murderer who massacred 4091 humans. I shiver coldly.
‘No.’
It's a serious matter.
‘It is no longer just a matter of copying the skills of the Holy Sword or not. ”
Exactly it.
‘Whatever in the future ... if the Holy Sword sees me, he will try to kill me.’
Because in his eyes, I was a vile killer who, like a deadly virus, should not be allowed to survive in this world.
“Wa-, wait!”
I stretched out my hand.
“Please wait a minute..”
At that moment.
The Sacred Sword flew towards me at an unstoppable speed.
