All Stat Slayer - Chapter 50: (2): Season 1: Preparation

The Union Leader of the Japanese Union, Ichigo, participated in the auction and unfortunately got shot. It happened at a time when the battlefield had momentarily disappeared. One could say that Ichigo’s luck with the geography was bad.

Ichigo’s gaze turned to a man.

“Is that kind of movement possible…?”

That kind of movement. He had seen it before. It was much more natural now than before. There was no doubt that he was the only man in the world capable of soloing Cyclops. However, fighting monsters and facing modern weapons were completely different problems.

‘He’s taking submachine gun shots with his body…?’

Of course, his health points were steadily decreasing, but only in small amounts. However, among the Slayers gathered here, there were many top-tier Slayers from various countries. Some of them seemed to be healers, as they were gradually replenishing Hyun-seok’s health points.

‘If the impact value of the submachine gun is usually around 7,000, and if we consider the cumulative damage caused by critical hits and rapid fire… what kind of defense does that Slayer have?’

It wasn’t just about defense. It was simply unbelievable to see Ichigo’s leader completely taken aback by Hyun-seok’s courage and momentum. No matter how confident he was in his own defense, how many people in the world would confidently run while being shot at by a submachine gun?

‘This is not just a matter of defense. Even if you have confidence in your defense, you cannot charge in like that.’

Hyun-seok became the trigger. As Hyun-seok retaliated, the Slayers who had been crouching and observing the situation also stood up. The attacks were concentrated on Hyun-seok, and the other Slayers quickly moved in, taking advantage of the situation.

Although it was unknown who they were, they provided healing to Ichigo’s leader. He felt relieved.

‘Moreover… judging by their speed, they should be able to easily dodge. The reason they approach head-on without avoiding bullets… is undoubtedly to protect the people around them.’

There was a sense of awe towards Hyun-seok. Moreover, there weren’t many people who couldn’t understand the situation. At least the Slayers understood the situation.

There were seven villains. One of them lost their life to Hyun-seok, and the remaining three were incapacitated by Hyun-seok, one was taken care of by Sung-hyung, and the other two were neutralized by Slayers who were stimulated by Hyun-seok.

Hyun-seok’s heart began to beat violently. He didn’t fall into a state of panic or experience symptoms like schizophrenia, but for the first time, he had committed murder. Of course, it wasn’t intentional, and the opponent shot at him recklessly and landed consecutive critical shots on his head, causing significant damage (-1000 in total). He could use the excuse that he was too surprised by the continuous damage, but regardless, he had committed murder.

‘I committed murder.’

No matter how top-tier a Slayer he was, killing monsters and killing people were completely different matters. Hyun-seok had never properly hit a person since he was twenty. His hands and feet trembled. Sung-hyung patted his shoulder from the side and whispered quietly.

“This is self-defense one hundred percent. Don’t worry too much.”“Okay.”

He understood it intellectually. It was self-defense. In that situation, if he didn’t kill, he could have been killed. In fact, even the world’s dignitaries would bow down to him and express their gratitude.

Whether it was due to his excellent marksmanship or good luck, critical shots kept appearing on his head, causing his health points to decrease to over 10,000 in just a few short seconds. It seemed that continuous critical shots within a short period of time caused even more damage. Especially with a weapon like a submachine gun, which boasted an incredible rate of fire, it was equally dangerous.

Although he managed to quickly replenish his health points with healing, if he kept getting hit like that, it could have been a dangerous situation.

There was no news coverage. In the first place, not many people knew about this kind of auction. But among the participants, including the top-tier Slayers, it was believed that the Platinum Slayer from Korea had resolved this incident.

The first to step forward, in other words, the Slayer who continued to be shot by the submachine gun but had only a very small reduction in health points (at most one-tenth). When other people saw that Slayer, they could only think of the Platinum Slayer from Korea.

The Union Leader of Japan, spoke.

“As expected… it must be Hyun-seok, right?”“Probably. It’s astonishing that he can demonstrate such power with pure physical abilities alone. He’s an all-around Slayer who can handle not only the battlefield but also the recovery field, isn’t he?”“By the way, it seems that this incident will be handled secretly.”“They don’t want the heads of state to be involved in this issue.”“But we must find out who is behind it. It seems like it was the Shield. I had a corner of my mind that believed in them. What were the chances of the Platinum Slayer being in that position? In a way, his luck was bad. No, even if there was a Platinum Slayer… if it was a common strength, he could have easily dealt with modern weapons and shields. He was confident. By the way, the United States Union hosted this auction, right?”“Yes. The United States Union stepped forward, saying they would compensate.”

The auction was organized by the Unions of various countries, taking turns hosting it.

“Why did the United States hold the auction in Korea? What kind of deal did the Union Leader of Korea make?”“Because the Union in Korea has the Platinum Slayer. Even though I don’t know for sure, if they pulled some tricks and heavily lobbied using him as an excuse, it wouldn’t have been impossible.”“Not only us… there are probably many people who have figured out his identity.”“Of course. According to what is known, there is no other Slayer in existence who has such extraordinary movements and defense. If not for the Platinum Slayer of Korea… all the items would have been taken by them.”

Indeed, the Platinum Slayer was remarkable. There were renowned Slayers from around the world in that place. Yet no one dared to step forward. Even if they were Slayers, it was impossible to withstand being shot by a submachine gun consecutively. In fact, it was highly likely that they would die without being able to withstand a single shot. Moreover, even if they had confidence in their defense, who would think of running away without dodging bullets?

“He is overwhelming in terms of mental strength as well.”

Ichigo’s leader swallowed his saliva. It was dangerous to have preconceptions. Hyun-seok had not been completely without hesitation when it came to killing; rather, he failed to properly control his excessive excitement and accidentally killed the masked person. People are the ones who go into a frenzy even if there is a big bug attached to them. Bullets were sparking and reducing his health points, and even that was his first experience, but to maintain composure in such a situation was more surprising. Even if he had killed unintentionally due to consecutive critical shots to his head, it could be said that he was too bewildered by the excuse that a considerable amount of damage (-1000) occurred in Hyun-seok’s position.

And it went beyond the issue of mental strength. Hyun-seok’s defense points were already over 50,000. When Ichigo’s leader learned that the impact value was approximately 7,000, it gave him great confidence. From his perspective, it could be interpreted as “the mental strength to face great danger and still take action,” but from Hyun-seok’s perspective, it could be interpreted as “a mere 7,000. Even if I get hit roughly, I won’t die. At best, it’s only one-tenth.” There was a significant difference in the perception of defense points.

Anyway, in the United States Union, they received the newcomers subdued by the Slayers and started investigating the background forces.

After some time, Park Sung-hyung spoke.

“Hyun-seok, they all committed suicide.”“What?”“I don’t know. It seems like they had some kind of suicide drug. There are also baseless rumors circulating that the United States intentionally killed them to monopolize the information among themselves. But it’s not easy for them to commit suicide so easily. They weren’t a group of individuals with lax monitoring systems, but the Americans… Anyway, it seems like it will be difficult to determine the background forces for now. By the way, how’s your body?”

Sung-hyung glanced at Hyun-seok and jokingly said,

“You’re not having nightmares, are you?”“No. Well… it’s a bit unsettling, but…”

It was fortunate that there were no corpses left behind in the battlefield. If his fist had shattered bones and his head had been smashed, it would have been terrible, but it didn’t happen. Although he felt uneasy about taking someone’s life, it wasn’t to the extent of having nightmares.

“There’s something… unsettling about it.”

The essence of the problem hadn’t been captured, but a lingering uneasiness remained.

“They were supposed captives, yet they easily committed suicide. How could that be with six of them…”

Hyun-seok raised his head. It was a problem that couldn’t be solved just by thinking alone. Sung-hyung also seemed to be pondering something, but he didn’t mention the issue.

“I called you because I thought it might be a problem. The real reason I called you is…”

Hyun-seok was surprised by Sung-hyung’s words.

“Is that really true?”

What Sung-hyung handed over was a new skill book.
