Chapter 227

At the same time as awakening this ability, awakened people instinctively realize their own power and can use their power

according to their own color.

And in the case of Ma Dong-wook, who has followed a single path as a judo artist his entire life, the color was ‘power’ itself.

Incredible strength.

The strongest skill appropriate for him was engraved into his body the moment he awakened to S-class.

‘Skill, becoming bigger’

Toad!

Feeling threatened, Ma Dong-wook’s body instantly swelled.

The baggy clothes on his body became tight and soon tore apart.

Suho used his deeply ingrained judo skills, which he had practiced thousands and tens of thousands of times over the past 1

decades.

Whoa!

The sound of strong wind passes by my ears.

Ma Dong-wook used his tremendous strength to pull Su-ho’s body.

And with that force, he pinned him to the floor.

no.

I tried to do that.

‘… … uh?’

Huh-

What happened?

In an instant, Ma Dong-wook saw his vision turned upside down.

The expressions of astonishment on the faces of people looking at this side passed by quickly.

and.

For a brief moment, I saw stars.

Kuwaan-!

“Huh?!”

Pain followed later along with a shrill scream.

Although it was only for a moment, I think I fainted.

Ma Dong-wook suddenly came to his senses and finally realized.

The fact that the person who was miserably pinned to the ground was not Suho, but himself.

“… … her.”

Pain was pain, and a hollow laugh burst out from my lungs.

Superior weight class and skilled technique.

However, Suho had a pure power that overwhelmed everything.

Tuk.

What followed was the moment when Suho let go of Ma Dong-wook’s hand.

His arm was as weak as a corpse.

The movement was fluid, like some kind of mollusk.

… … !

And it really went crazy.

I could see the medical staff and A-level healer waiting in the distance rushing towards me in a hurry.

Through their words, Ma Dong-wook learned that all the bones in his hands and arms were broken.

* * *

“Uh-huh! After all, young people can’t handle it!”

“… … “Are you okay?”

“Of course it’s okay! Why are they making such a fuss about a broken bone? I am the most tenacious tanker in our country!

“Hehehe!”

“I’m glad you stopped. ha.”

Director Lee Se-hwan breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at Ma Dong-wook, who was receiving treatment from an A-level healer, smiling brightly and without speed.

Then, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he slowly turned his head back.

There, he could see S-class hunters with expressions much more serious than his own.

I feel sorry for Hunter Ma Dong-wook, but I felt a little refreshed.

‘I wonder if someone is my brother’s son, really… … . Thanks to Hunter Ma Dong-wook, I had a proper hazing ceremony.’

No, is it really correct to describe this as hazing?

‘… … It’s really crazy.’

‘You used your power to crush the world’s Ma Dong-wook?’

Even Lim Tae-gyu and Baek Mi-ho, who were well aware of Su-ho’s power, could not calm their shocked hearts.

If the battle had been fought using combat abilities or skills, no one would have been so surprised.

I’m not just saying this, Ma Dong-wook was actually the strongest S-class tank in Korea.

Power is power.

If you’re stubborn, you’re stubborn.

Ma Dong-wook, a man who looked like a hunky old man from this friendly neighborhood, possessed such strength that he could break the neck of an A-level magician with his bare hands.

However, Seong Su-ho defeated Ma Dong-wook through pure power competition.

‘Even though I used the giantization skill, I was helpless.’

‘How strong does it have to be to get results like this?’

In my mind, I wonder if the defense of the demon that Suho blew up like a balloon, which I saw in the Indian video, was weaker than it looked? The minds of those who had doubts have now turned white.

On the other hand, Ma Dong-wook seemed to quite like Seong Su-ho.

“Hehehe! Seong Su-ho, this guy is a real gal! Are you really not planning on joining our guild? No, how about you become the guild leader instead of me? “I don’t want to get into trouble with witches at this age.”

He joked with Seong Su-ho while fiddling with his hands, which were still numb after receiving treatment.

Then, I felt the strange atmosphere surrounding Seong Su-ho and burst into laughter.

“haha. “I’m the one who got hurt, but why is the atmosphere like this?”

“… … .”

“… … .”

The S-class hunters, who had witnessed Seong Su-ho’s power thanks to Ma Dong-wook, kept a heavy silence.

In particular, there was one person whose face was completely white.

That’s Hyeonmu gang.

Just a moment ago, his hand, which had been shaking Suho’s hand, was shaking slightly.

He was so pale that he didn’t even notice that his hands were wet with cold sweat.

‘… … What kind of crazy writer wrote nonsense about Seong Su-ho being a summoner on his profile?’

It was a mistake to naively believe in the information power of the association in the first place.

what? S-class summoner?

Are they really crazy?

Because the reawakened person’s original abilities were insufficient, the possibility that the type of ability changed upon reawakening was overlooked.

In the first place, reawakening itself is a rare case, so it is not strange if any variables occur.

Glancing.

Hyeonmu-gang’s eyes unconsciously turned to Seo Ji-woo of the Blue Dragon Guild next to him.

‘Seo Ji-woo… … Now that I think about it, that woman was also a reawakener.’ 8

In Seo Ji-woo’s case, it was a case of reawakening and becoming younger. 2

As his physical strength rose to the extreme level of S-class, an unexpected effect caused him to look younger to the point where he looked like he was in his 20s.

But his real age is… … . 1

‘… … ‘We asked the association to keep the information confidential so that no one would know.’

As such, the association is generous to S-class hunters.

So, Seong Su-ho, who was originally a summoner and is now an S-class reawakener, has been reborn as a tank with a power that surpasses that of Ma Dong-wook.

And that fact must have been ‘intentionally’ hidden.

Maybe he was aiming for this situation.

If you make a strong first impression on other S-class hunters, it will be easier to persuade them to attack North Korea.

‘You played well.’

Hyeonmu-gang’s face became hot from the shame that was slowly rising.

What did you say earlier?

I can’t believe he triumphantly presented a summoning-related rune stone to a tanker who used more ignorant power than Ma Dong-wook!

‘Holy shit!’

But I couldn’t give up like this.

In order to escape from the clutches of that cruel and persistent CEO Jin-ho Yoo, you must recruit Seong Su-ho!

He shook his head desperately.

‘Anyway, what Seong Su-ho wants is to attack North Korea. There’s still a chance.’

He had already read that, except for himself, other S-class hunters were favoring Seong Su-ho.

However, even if these four people are in favor of Su-ho going to North Korea, Seong Su-ho will not be able to achieve what he wants if he votes against it anyway.

Of course, even if he was against it, Seong Su-ho still had the option of going to other S-class hunters who did not participate today and begging for them.

‘But it’s impossible.’

I was confident.

Anyway, the S-class people who weren’t here today are not interested in Seong Su-ho.

In fact, I thought that the birth of a new S-class hunter would reduce the workload, but no one would welcome the idea of leaving for North Korea.

‘So, in the end, my last vote is decisive. Let’s see. If the rune stone doesn’t work, should I ask you to join our guild as my requirement?’

Of course, if you do that, other guys will rebel.

Just looking at the current atmosphere, it seems like both parties want Seong Su-ho to join their guild.

‘But I’m different.’

In the first place, his goal was not to recruit Seong Su-ho.

His only goal is to use Seong Su-ho thoroughly and escape from Yoo Jin-ho’s clutches.

‘Whether it’s recruiting or anything else, I’ll do anything as long as I can use Seong Su-ho as a means of dealing with CEO Jin-ho Yoo. It would be easier if you were a tank rather than a summoner or something. ‘You can offer expensive armor.’

Just like Ma Dong-wook, fighting against demonic beasts with your bare body is not something you can do just because you are strong.

Rather, the stronger the power, the more problematic it becomes.

If you swing the sword with that kind of force, the blade will quickly chip or break completely. The gauntlets that Seo Ji-woo wears on both hands are also consumables. 2

It is natural that the more you fight, the more the durability of the armor and weapons you wear decreases.

So what is needed is a sturdy weapon refined from expensive magic stones.

‘And in our guild, there are a lot of expensive weapons that tankers would be happy to see.’

It was a moment when Hyun Moo-gang’s eyes sparkled with confidence again.

“haha. But it’s fascinating.”

Ma Dong-wook, who had finally recovered from his injury, was amazed as he looked around the association’s gymnasium where they were currently gathered with a new look on his face.

“What on earth is this building? Even after all this mess, the floor is still intact. Could it be that the building was built entirely out of magic stones?”

“… … ?!”

“Yes that’s right. “It is a recently completed gymnasium for training and other special purposes for the association’s hunters.”

“… … !”

When Director Lee Se-hwan nodded and answered, Hyun Moo-gang’s eyes widened in astonishment.

Only then did the other S-class hunters realize that they had been so focused on Seongsu-ho that they had not been paying attention, and they looked around and opened their mouths.

“oh my god. “Is it real?”

“It must have cost a huge amount of money to build a building of this size with magic stones.”

“Did the association have that much money?”

It was ridiculous.

Even as a large guild, they could not even think of creating a training center of this size in their guild headquarters.

It’s only been two years since the cataclysm occurred.

No matter how large the guild was, it did not already have the financial power to invest this much money in the building alone.

No, I was making more money than that, but I was busy spending it on making and repairing the weapons of my guild members, which quickly broke after just one walk through the dungeon.

Of course, they had built a small, sturdy training center for their guild members in their guild headquarters, but they could not even imagine something of this scale.

In order to build a training facility of this size, you have to work hard to save up money for at least 3, or even 5 years… … .

Startle.

“for a moment. “Is this really happening again?”

At that moment, a name suddenly appeared in everyone’s mind.

When it comes to things that are ahead of the times like this, there are three names that always follow.

“What else has President Woo Jin-cheol done?”

“Have you received any government support?”

“No, it will take at least a year just to build the building?”

“There’s no way the country would have allowed this much money last year? “There is something called a government budget!”

Perhaps satisfied with their surprised reactions, Director Lee Se-hwan smiled and answered.

“yes. Of course, there was no government support, but there were good investors. “This building was part of a project that the president of the association started even before he left for North Korea.”

“project?”

“investor?”

At those words, everyone, including Baek Yunho, raised their eyebrows.

“You’re an investor? Could it be that an association that is supposed to remain neutral has started receiving investment from private companies?”

“If this is the case, how is this association any different from a private guild like ours?”

“Ah, I think there is a bit of a misunderstanding in that regard.”

Director Lee Se-hwan was able to fully understand the reactions of the sharpening S-class hunters.

‘… … ‘I was quite surprised to hear it from the president of the association too late.’

As they claim, it was an international rule that a hunter association representing a country should not belong to any organization.

Because the Hunter Association holds the abilities and information of all hunters in the country, there is a risk that the information may be used carelessly for someone’s personal gain after receiving investment from an individual or a specific organization.

but.

“Everyone will know. The fact that our country’s hunter association was the first to be established in the world. “It is an organization that was launched much earlier than the International Hunter Association.”

“What is that?”

“Why does that word come up here?”

“Hmm. therefore… … .”

Director Lee Se-hwan was not at all intimidated in front of the S-class hunters, and just conveyed the truth he knew with a

confident smile on his face.

“This means that our country’s hunter association is the only organization in the world that deviates from international law.”

“… … what?”

“What is that?”

The hunters, who sensed something strange in those words, froze.

Woo Jin-cheol, president of the association.

He was originally a police chief, but at the same time as the cataclysm, he received government permission and founded the Hunter Association.

And he was a national hero who worked for the rights of hunters and the stability of citizens more than anyone else.

He was like that… … no way?

“In short, the Hunter Association of Korea is nothing more than President Woo Jin-cheol’s national personal guild created with government approval.”

“… … !”

“Of course, as you all know, the president of the association has not used the association to satisfy any self-interest. So I think everyone is mistaken, but the Hunter Association belongs to the president in the first place. This means that the president of the association can receive investment from anyone he wishes. Of course, there is no problem whether it is international

law or domestic law.”

The S-class hunters gathered at the association were unable to show any reaction to the somewhat shocking words, with their expressions stiff.

It was difficult to interpret exactly what legal force the words they heard had.

Does that mean that Chairman Woo Jin-cheol can give orders to all hunter guilds in Korea if he wants to?

How can the law be so lenient?

No, why on earth did Woo Jin-cheol do such a thing before that?

While everyone is confused.

Among the people gathered here, there was the only one who was not embarrassed.

It’s Seong Su-ho.

“so… … “Who is that investor?”

Even as he asked, Suho somehow felt like he already knew the answer.

And before the answer could come out of Director Lee Se-hwan’s mouth, the door to the gym opened and a sound came from behind them.

Jump up!

“Suho! “You, this guy, went to a dangerous place without even telling me!”

“… … Uncle.”

“Say hello. “This is CEO Yoo Jin-ho, an investor in the Korea Hunter Association.”
