Civil Service Hunter’s S-level Resignation Log - Chapter 9
Seora looked at the crack that was slowly starting to come together.
A faintly blue color started coming out of it.
It was just an ordinary dungeon.
【A gate has been created. Please be prepared for danger.】
【Gate creation completed…】
【An error has occurred. Gate creation paused. The system administrator is interfering with the gate.】
【Interference complete.】
【Gate creation is complete. The system administrator is currently controlling the magic of the gate.】
“Wow, it’s real.”
Even though I was right in front of the gate, I couldn’t feel any magic power coming out of it.
If I couldn’t sense it as an S-rank, of course it wouldn’t be caught even by a machine that detects magic waves.
Now this gate was hers alone.
“Awesome, Administrator!”
【Administrator : (*´∀`人)】
“As expected, the administrator is the best!”
【Administrator: //(*´∪`)】
‘Look how shy you are. It’s really cute.’
It was so cute despite how trivial it was…
“Ahemahem.”
Seora quickly got rid of her blasphemous thoughts before the narrow-minded administrator noticed.
“Well then, shall we go in?”
【Administrator: ・:*三( o’ω’)o】
“That’s right. All the items that will come out of this dungeon are mine…!”
Hehehe. Her mouth was wide open.
She had received a lot of items from the werewolf habitat, and it was now another item party!
‘It’s all a bunch of money.’
Seora, who wiped away the saliva that was about to flow unconsciously, grabbed her weapons again and crossed the gate.
【The awakened ‘Yoon Seora’ has entered the Grade 4 dungeon ‘Land Giant’s Footprints’.】
“A grade 4. I think it might be a little too small to test out these weapons.”
A look of disappointment appeared on Seora’s face.
She had managed to kill Grade 3 monsters with one shot, just how easy would a Grade 4 monster be? How sad, that’s just too bad.
“……Wow I must have really become an S-rank.”
Seora, who was grumbling with a weapon on her shoulder, was startled when she realised the words she just uttered.
It was only a few days ago that she was thrown into a grade 3 dungeon and prepared to die.
But before she knew it, her body had completely adjusted to the rise in her status.
“After all, humans are also animals of adaptation.”
【Administrator: ~(⁰▿⁰)~】
Look. It was also weird that she had naturally accepted the administrator’s weird emoticons.
“It’s an empty land.”
Under the gray sky, there wasn’t a single grass or tree, it was an expansive rocky area.
As Seora’s energy began spreading, the rocks and stones around her all began rising.
All of them were monsters made out of soil that lived parasitically on the land giant’s habitat.
“Let’s start with a normal hit first.”
Right on time, there was a suitable area next to her.
Seora quickly climbed up to the slightly higher area that would be better off described as a mound rather than a cliff.
As her rank increased, so did her overall physical abilities, making her movements very quick.
‘I want to see how fast I can move.’
Right now, using her weapons was her priority so she laid down on her stomach. After all, it’s best for snipers to shoot from high places.
“The view here is good.”
She grabbed ‘Hit’ that instantly turned into a sniper rifle and aimed at the monsters running towards her.
“BangBang.”
When she pulled the trigger, the enormous magical energy contained in her body turned into a bullet and flew through the air.
Every time one of her bullets landed, pieces of stone flew towards the sky.
It wasn’t uncommon for several monsters to be pierced and smashed in one hit.
Although she could feel it in the Werewolf habitat, the administrator’s EX-Class weapon could bring her skills to its fullest, making her abilities achieve a higher grade.
A master craftsman didn’t choose between brushes, but this was what it meant to have a good brush.
“Every time I touched an S-Class gun you created a fuss. Now I can see why.”
This time, Seora, who pierced through a bigger monster’s head, laughed softly.
The S-class weapon Seora picked today was not a gun.
Whenever she chose a gun, the administrator strongly opposed it by spamming emoticons.
Was that all? Of course not, afterwards he forcibly opened her inventory and pointed at the hit.
If she finally grabbed another gun, this narrow-minded administrator would have dropped the EX-Class weapon in the room right in front of Hanna’s eyes.
But now that she saw it, She could clearly understand why.
‘Now that I know the taste of an EX-class gun, how can I be satisfied with a mere S-Class?’
Each time she pulled the trigger, Seora’s lips filled with a deep smile at the thrilling sensation that spread.
Ah, she really doesn’t think she can go back to the days where she couldn’t use a gun. After tasting this sensation, how can she possibly give it up?
A shooter must hold a gun to feel complete.
“Oh……!”
At that moment, the hard mound where Seora was laying down started to shake.
She quickly grabbed her weapon and retreated from the area.
She was planning on waiting until the shaking slowed down, but instead of slowing down, it was getting worse.
“Huh? Could this be……”
【Administrator: ◝(๑⁺д⁺๑)◞՞】
Looking at the loud emoticon, the administrator seemed to have the same opinions.
“Is this mound a monster?!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the ground she was standing on began to soar to a great height.
What was once a mound now had a head, followed by a body, limbs, etc.
It was a land giant, the residents of this dungeon.
“Wow, it’s not even one or two.”
All of a sudden, all the high areas around her started turning into a giant.
Their red eyes all looked straight at the tiny Seora.
“What a spectacular view.”
Everything here was hoping for her death.
Still, instead of being afraid, she felt a sense of exaltation. Even when she was facing things that could kill her, she felt relaxed.
Oh, and it was at this point that she realized that the one who changed was her, not her rank or number.
Her body knew instinctively. That they can’t hurt her in the slightest.
“Then the player must win.”
There was absolutely no reason to be afraid, so she moved right away.
She turned her ‘hit’ into a pistol and put it into the waist of her pants, and grabbed her new weapon instead.
Wow. The perfect grip that sticks to the palm of your hand. It was amazing, really.
“Well then……”
With a grin, Seora swung her blunt weapon toward the head of the giant next to her.
She can kill a monster with a single bullet, but how many hits would it take to explode a giant’s head with her S-class weapon?
The answer is once.
Punch! Kwang! The stone head was completely shattered, and pieces of stone flew into the air.
As the giant’s body swayed around in the midst of the hailstorm of stone shards, Seora hurled her body and swung her weapon again.
Kwaang! With a louder roar, the giant’s body completely collapsed.
Meanwhile, Seora landed safely on the ground without any disturbance.
“Wow, I have a great sense of balance.”
She had always wondered how it was possible that top hunters jumped between buildings, jumping over rooftops, and flew through the sky.
But now she knows. Their physical ability was really good enough to do that.
“Oh, this is exciting. This is really exciting. Even better since the weapons are good.”
Seora looked at the weapon she was holding with twinkling eyes.
A handle that provides a perfect grip, a decent length and a rounded part with sharp thorns that shatter broke through even stones with a single blow.
It’s name would be a brilliant mace.
【Administrator: (`- ε – ´ )】
“What. Why do you look like that?”
【Administrator: ◕`ε ´◕】
“Did you get angry?”
Seeing that there was no other response, it really was mad.
No, what did she even do? She had only said that it tastes good, but why……
Oh.
“Hmmm. Hmm! Still, Hit is the best. It’s a precious EX-Class weapon that the administrator directly gave me. This mace is just a secondary weapon, a secondary weapon.”
Seora roughly shook the mace she was holding.
Then, with a distinctly different, cautious hand, she touched the pistol that she had put in her hand. As if it was far more precious.
【Administrator: (*` н ´*)】
Thank God. It wasn’t completely relieved, but she guessed that it was feeling a bit better.
So that’s how it is. The administrator has to be soothed the same way you would soothe a child. Okay, she understands.
“Okay then, let’s take care of the rest.”
Since she had come here to try out her new weapon, Seora did not let go of her mace.
However, it would be a little difficult to kill all the giants with this short weapon.
What do you need at a time like this?
The secondary ability of an S-Class weapon.
Seora cut her palms using the thorns on the mace, then sprinkled her oozing blood over it.
The black Mace shone red for a moment.
【Weapon Information】
Name: Red Mace (S-Class)
Type: Mace
Unique Characteristic: A cursed mace that desires blood. The more blood it drinks, the more destructive it gets.
Secondary Ability: If it contains the blood of the awakened person it recognizes as its master, it will turn into a whip for a short amount of time. The stronger the master’s power, the more freely it moves.
Song Hanna hadn’t said much when she chose this weapon.
The secondary ability was pretty good, but it was meaningless for F-Rank Seora who couldn’t even use a D-Class Gun anyways.
She would have only thought that she had chosen something good to wield, as she had little to no magical powers.
Of course that wasn’t the case. She had taken a close look at the supporting skills.
Since she had the characteristics of a sniper, it would be good to have at least one secondary weapon that was capable of a wide-range attack.
Seora grabbed the mace that was soaked in her own blood, and swung it vigorously at the giant running towards me.
The mace, which sucked up a lot of the S-Rank magical power she contained in her blood, instantly transformed into a whip full of thorns of an enormous length, and cut the giant from head to toe.
Kwaaang! The whole ground began dancing violently like an earthquake at the whip that hit the ground.
Thanks to that, the giants couldn’t move any closer and started stumbling around.
“Oh, that’s great!”
This time she swung her whip sideways to aim towards those giants.
The power of an S-Rank hunter under the administrator’s protection was truly extreme.
Several stone giants were cut in half in an instant.
Oh, what to do? Really, wasn’t she too strong?
Power, speed, everything was different from before. She felt dizzy at the extent of her superior physical abilities.
Standing in the middle of the empty field where dust and stones were flying wildly, she ran frantically with a lively smile.
Not knowing that all the monsters in the dungeon, including the Stone Giant, were terrified, she was genuinely happy.
It was as if a demon had descended into the dungeon.
***
The happy memories from the dungeon continued until she went to work the next day.
She couldn’t believe she was on her way back to work. The taste of monopolizing items was too good.
“Yoon Seora, you look very happy.”
Oops. It seemed she was smiling again.
Seora hurriedly shut her mouth and glanced at the man next to her.
Her fellow teammate and friend Gong Haeyeon looked dumbfounded.
“You are already late. What’s going on? What good happened to make your face like that?”
“I went through a big thing a while ago, and nothing good could have happened.”
“Your lips are dry. If you’re going to lie, you have to at least put saliva in your mouth!”
Gong Haeyeon scolded her, but Seora did not open her mouth until the end.
Of course, she was a reliable friend, but that didn’t mean she can just tell her that she robbed a Grade 4 dungeon by herself and stole all the items.
‘It was very salty.’
Since the land giants were rock attributes, it was optimized for making equipment for tanks. That meant they were worth quite a lot.
Thinking of the bank account balance that would soon be filled, her heart was already pounding, and Seora had to take deep breaths throughout the night.
You really lived only once.
“Your eyes are full of greed. Come on, tell the truth!”
‘Ah, that’s pretty quick.’
Hmmm, it seems that it was very obvious that she had fallen into the afflictions of the world.
Seora hurriedly covered her eyes that were overflowing with desire.
