Civil Service Hunter’s S-level Resignation Log - Chapter 50

—Notice by the Korea Awakened Management Association. A dungeon break has occurred in the hotel, so please evacuate according to the guidance of the association. Currently, an S-Rank hunter is guarding the gate, so don’t worry and evacuate in order. Informing again.

Jarim listened to Seora’s voice echoing throughout the hotel.

Even now, her mana was being drawn out, but the voice that was shouting loudly did not show any signs of such a thing.

Rather, there was a strong determination that told them that there was nothing to worry about since they were being guarded.

“S-Rank hunter. That’s right. Actually, the one blocking the gate right now is Seora.”

Jarim looked at the fluctuating red space.

Despite the tremendous firestorm, the cube did not move a single inch.

Even though the temperature was so hot that the monster who came out of the gate burned into ashes before they could even touch the cube.

It was truly a great sight, but Seora’s burden was too heavy.

‘She said she was an F-Rank not too long ago.”

She didn’t like her identity being known. She didn’t want lives being sacrificed. And her own safety and peace were her priority.

Despite saying things like that, didn’t she run out without hesitation?

So Jarim had no choice but to keep an eye on Seora.

Because she didn’t want to see the tragedy that happened in Bhaskar repeat here.

‘The good news is that the administrator takes care of Seora a lot.’

In Bhaskar, the administrator treated their contractor as if he was their agent and used him to do things for them.

Because administrators could not directly engage with the world.

But the administrator here didn’t seem to have any intention of doing something like that.

He just watched so that Seora did whatever she wanted to do and lived freely.

So she’ll probably be fine.

“Oh, they are evacuating surprisingly well, aren’t they? Normally, they would be busy running away with confusion.”

When she looked down at the building, the citizens were calmly evacuating under the guidance of the association officials.

Would she have been able to deal with it this well? She thought about it, but she couldn’t remember her life in Bhaskar 100 years ago.

Jarim quickly gave up on remembering her memory. Perhaps this is the belief in Song Hanna, who completely dominated the association.

“To protect that belief, I have to protect this place well.”

Seora’s skill, which was supposed to be solid, had been shaking a little since earlier. She probably won’t last long.

She applied power onto her hand and grabbed onto her weapon.

All she had to do was hold out as much as she could until her support arrived. Just remembering that, Jarim took her position.

Soon, the cracked red cube shattered, and the stagnant flames burst into the air.

An immense heat that would be enough to cook her skin swept from the front, but Jarim quickly swung her two-bladed dreadful scythe without turning her head.

Kaang, kang! Kwak! Along with such sound, there was a feeling of the weapon cutting through something hard. Jarim opened her eyes wide.

She got goosebumps. That familiar sensation, which she had felt thousands and tens of thousands of times, rose through her hands.

【An ore monster has appeared. ‘Title — Battlefield Slayer’ has been triggered. Your physical abilities has been temporarily increased!】

The ore-covered planet Bhaskar.

A title obtained through annihilating countless ore-type creatures, the battlefield slayer.

It passed through Jarim’s body, emitting a reddish gold color. Vitality welled up from her whole body, and she was finally able to breathe.

Like a living creature that had been in the water and finally came up to the ground, Jarim exhaled heavily.

“I don’t think we need any help.”

Her 100 years were longer than expected. To the extent that cutting hard ore like tofu felt like the easiest thing in the world.

Jarim swung her weapon at the monsters coming out of the gate.

The monsters made of hard ore material were shattered by the moves that were far too light.

Jarim’s golden eyes radiated a red glow among the powder that gathered in the air.

***

‘Her skill is broken.’

Seora, who was evacuating citizens alongside the association officials, pressed her chest tight.

Her mana was exhausted and her stomach was shaken for a moment due to the after effect of her skill being forcefully broken. Even drinking the healing potion did not ease the pain.

‘Jarim-unni said that it was hard to deal with it by herself. Did Chief Do go to the roof right away?’

She was unable to contact him in fear of interfering with the battle.

“I should get going.”

After confirming that all the citizens had left the hotel lobby, she secretly got on the elevator.

“Administrator, how about Jarim-unni? Is she okay? Is she hurt anywhere? Has Chief Do arrived?”

Pressing down on her impatience, the manager answered the question.

【Administrator: ꒪⌓꒪……】

“……”

What. That’s the emoticon Liza used when he saw something shocking.

“What? What’s wrong? Is Jarim-unni doing something strange?”

【Administrator: ↑(꒪⌓꒪)↑】

“Should I go up first?”

Then it was not a dangerous situation. First she had to get out of the first floor.

She didn’t realize when she had arrived on the first floor, but the hotel was shaking slightly with the sound of something breaking.

Seora pulled out her gun again and ran towards the roof.

Even if she wasn’t hurt, she must have been overworking herself trying to prevent the monsters from escaping.

She would check to see if Do Junyoung was there, and if not, she would join her right away.

The moment she made up her mind and poked her head out of her door.

“Ugh!”

As if waiting, a huge mass flew in front of her. Her terrified body reacted reflexively.

“Whatever you are, how dare you dare fly to my face!”

Along with that incredible shout, the colt shattered it into pieces.

Looking at the falling stone fragments, it must have been an ore-type monster.

“Hey, I meant to go easy. It would be a waste if it had expensive mana stones attached to it……”

Seora, who jumped into the roof to avoid the pieces that fell at her feet, stopped talking.

How would you describe this scene?

‘……A grave?’

There were monsters smashed beyond recognition everywhere.

In middle of the grave full of piled up monster corpses, Seong Jarim was running wild with a weapon in her arms.

Her usual self that looked like a dog with a screw missing was nowhere to be seen.

A reddish glare radiated from her golden eyes, slicing, killing, slicing, slicing, killing, and slicing the monsters that came out of the gate.

She was just repeating the action of slicing and killing.

As if she was someone born just for this.

Seora now realized why the administrator made such a face.

‘Her eyes are back. Did she remember the days of Bhaskar again?’

Thanks to that, the monsters were not escaping from here, but instead chasing the clans that came out of the gate, was this really okay?

【Administrator: ☞(;¬_¬)☞】

“Huh? What is there?”

Seora, who was looking at Jarim with confused eyes, turned her head towards the direction the administrator was pointing at without thinking much.

And then she went silent.

“……”

“……”

w-wait. No, wait. Wait a minute. Wait just a bit!

‘Lizaliza-nim, please tell me my eyes are seeing things. Please! Tell me I’m seeing vain!’

【Administrator: (;¬_¬)】

But her contractor eventually turned a blind eye to her. Seora’s lips began to tremble.

……So her eyes weren’t seeing things.

“……Chief Do.”

Seora called out the name that she really didn’t want to call.

“Yoon Seora……?”

Do Junyoung’s face, staring blankly at her, was astonished. Seora tightly closed her eyes.

Damn it. He must have seen her shooting and killing the monsters with her gun. She was screwed, she was completely utterly ruined!

“The gun……”

As Do Junyoung’s gaze turned to her right hand, Seora reflexively hid the Colt in her hand behind her back.

“Uh, when did you come here……?”

None of this would have happened if he had just sent her a text saying he arrived!

“It hasn’t been long. I was going to join you right away, but Hunter Seong Jarim tried attacking me too, so I’m just watching.”

No wonder. she was told that she had captured her powers so perfectly that she didn’t even notice.

“I guess because Chief Do is a strong person, Seong Jarim thought you were an enemy. When there is a strong person, her hand reflexively goes out.”

“……Then from the sounds of it, should I take it that Yoon Seora-ssi suffered from the threat herself?”

That wasn’t a good topic either!

She dared not make eye contact with Do Junyoung and avoided his gaze.

No, she didn’t mean to hide it, blah blah blah blah……

The moment Seora was rolling her eyes to try and figure out how to get out of this situation.

【The boss the grade 4 dungeon ‘Thorn Island’ has appeared!】

At the sound of footsteps loud enough to shake the building, Do Junyoung and Seora’s eyes turned straight to the gate.

A huge monster with ores attached all over its body was slowly appearing.

Unlike the others, it was a boss monster with thick, sharp thorns all over its body.

“Something is not right.”

Has there ever been a guy with so many thorns in its body, yet had such a simple attack? Besides, the name of the dungeon was Thorn Island.

There must be some secret in that thorn……

“I was right!”

There was no time to think any further.

The same time as the boss monster inflated its body, the attached thorns flew  everywhere.

Why! She had a bad feeling! Was her gut ever wrong!

“Chief Do! Control that area! I will take this part!”

Was there any reason to keep on hiding when she was already found? It was better than the city collapsing.

Seora shed tears of her blood, gathered all her remaining mana, and unfolded the field.

She confined the thorns that had spread all over the area into a cube and fired her gun.

Do Junyoung also shot a sword into the air, and Seora, who had escaped shot a few thorns with her gun.

In the meantime, Seong Jarim was working on the boss monster.

Seeing her drive it into a corner and trample on it, she felt pity for the boss that appeared with such momentum.

“Ugh. So why did you even show up in this hotel this late at night?”

They were all hit by Karma.

“You have a skill.”

The moment she clicked her tongue, Seora flinched at the sound of the low voice.

“You are way more skilled in using guns.”

“……”

“And your movements have become more flexible than what they used to be.”

How is it that every single thing he said hit right on the nail?

“Uh, uh, somehow……That’s what happened.”

Seora slowly avoided his gaze.
