Seeing him motionless, Cui Zhongyin followed his line of sight and looked back.

A man who walked out alone from the ruined city center.

Seong Jin-Woo, who had finished his battle with the kings, quietly moved towards this side.

Soon, other hunters also spotted Cheng Jin-Woo one by one.

The scene that was full of exclamations and cheers suddenly fell silent because of Cheng Jin-Woo's appearance.

The only sound left was the sirens of ambulances arriving one after another.

It's Seong Jin-Woo Hunter.

'The man......'

Although the battle was over, Cheng Jin-Woo's eyes still exuded a sharp aura, and the solemn aura overwhelmed the atmosphere of the scene.

Seeing this scene, no one dared to speak again.

I don't know how fierce the battle Cheng Jin-Woo has gone through, but there is still a faint white smoke billowing from his shoulders.

'What's going on?'

After exchanging glances with Cheng Jin-Woo, Bai Luhao beckoned to him.

This is the beginning.

Everyone bowed their heads to Cheng Jin-Woo as if they were saluting a soldier returning from a dangerous mission.

tribute.

How can we not pay respect to the hunter who has shown this kind of fighting?

They all sent out heartfelt greetings, not because of who sent instructions, nor did they act because of the winks of the people around them.

One by one spontaneously saluted Seong Jin-Woo.

Cheng Jin-Woo accepted all their compliments.

'......'

He passed the hunters who avoided him without saying a word, and walked quietly towards the place where the familiar van was parked.

And behind him were Thomas Andre who was about to board the ambulance, and Lennart Neeleman who was beside Thomas.

Lennart said with a worried expression.

"Hunter Cheng Jin-Woo's complexion is not very good."

The emergency measures of the healers were over, and Thomas, who had improved greatly, nodded in agreement.

"It does seem so."

"Why? Obviously he defeated such a powerful monster and survived."

A hunter can read a hunter's mind.

Words can't describe the feeling I felt when I swept through the difficult dungeons and breathed the fresh air of the outside world.

But why is Hunter Seong Jin-Woo's expression so gloomy?

Thomas answered Lennart's question.

"Probably dissatisfied with those guys' battles."

"......!"

Lennart was taken aback.

Are you still dissatisfied with showing actions beyond human limits?

Is this still reasonable?

Thomas seemed to know what Lennart was thinking, he nodded and continued.

"Although I can't believe it, he may have been disappointed in himself by the several near-death crises he experienced during the battle."

Ahh...it was that time.

Recalling the time when he was pierced through the heart by the nails of the beast, and the old ice elf sent an ice sword into Cheng Jin-Woo's chest, Leinart couldn't help but sighed.

Isn't that caused by the enemy being too strong?

Not to mention fighting these two people, even if only fighting one of them, how many people can survive in this world?

Thinking of that, Lennart shook his head.

'No...'

really.

Because the enemy is too strong, I can only bear it silently.

That was the thinking of ordinary hunters like himself.

Maybe for someone with the power of Hunter Cheng Jin-Woo, winning is a matter of course, and they will only focus on how to win.

The thought of this sent a chill down Lennart's spine.

Facing Lennart who was extremely surprised, Thomas finally added a sentence.

"What a scary man. Seong Jin-Woo."

"......I think so too."

Afterwards, Thomas, who had finished his reasoning, was sent away by ambulance.

Lennart looked at Cheng Jin-Woo's back, and a memory jumped out.

'Haha... It was the best thing I did in my life not to cause a riot in his office...'

Lennart secretly made up his mind that he would never do anything that would make Hunter Seong Jin-Woo the possibility of becoming his enemy.

squeak!

It was too late, and then it was too late, the exclusive mount of the Xiaoya Guild arrived at the scene in a blink of an eye, and the young man in the driver's seat jumped out of the car immediately.

It was Yoo Chen-ho who drove here recklessly after seeing the scene where Cheng Jin-Woo was being bullied by monsters.

Liu Chenhao didn't have the same developed senses as the superior hunters, but he was still able to find Cheng Xiaoyu at once among the countless hunters present.

Liu Chenhao ran towards Cheng Jin-Woo with a choked voice.

"Big Brother Brother Brother Brother One!

Seeing Liu Chenhao whose tears flowed down like a waterfall, Cheng Xiaoyu slightly lost the malice in his eyes.

Liu Chenhao ran forward and hugged him tightly.

Normally, Cheng Jin-Woo would find it troublesome and quickly walk away, but today is different.

He lightly patted the back of Liu Chenhao who was hanging on his chest, tears gushing out in unison.

It was the heart that was really worried about my own warmth that froze me slowly melted.

Perhaps the person who really needs comfort today is not Liu Chenhao but himself?

Cheng Jin-Woo showed a faint smile.

After finally calming down, Liu Chenhao raised his messy face covered with tears and snot.

he couldn't help sobbing.

"Big brother, are you okay?"

"I have something to do."

"what?"

Facing Liu Chenhao who stared wide-eyed in panic, Cheng Jin-Woo pointed to his shirt which was stained with tears and snot.

"Hey!"

Liu Chenhao hastily wiped his eyes and nose with his sleeve, then lowered his head.

"Brother, I'm sorry. I'm so happy to see that you're all right now..."

Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This man has always been a weird guy from before to now.

But now he has become a good younger brother who is more discerning than anyone else in Cheng Jin-Woo's affairs.

Liu Chenhao, who finally stopped his tears, said with a bright face.

"Brother, I already knew that you would become like this, so I prepared the change of clothes in advance."

"Clothes?"

Cheng Jin-Woo looked down at himself.

In the fierce battle with the king, the clothes that have become messy from top to bottom come into view.

"If you just go back like this... Brother, won't your mother be worried again? So I brought clothes that Brother can wear."

Ah.

Seeing Cheng Xiaoyu gave himself a look that seemed very gratifying, Liu Chenhao wiped his nose lightly, holding back the look of joy.

"Let's go, brother. I'll take you to the house."

After thinking for a while, Cheng Jin-Woo nodded.

'Mom and Xiao Ya should have both watched TV, so they need to be reassured first. '

When Yoo Chen-ho sat in the driver's seat, Seong Jin-Woo turned his gaze to look at the city center which had been a battlefield until just now.

Many people who came to clean up the scene were busy cleaning up.

Among those ruins, Cheng Jin-Woo got several harvests.

'First of all, the most urgent task is to find a few machines that can also communicate in the sea of ​​trees. '

The same mistakes cannot be repeated.

However, compared to those, the bigger gain is this...

Seong Jin-Woo stared at the short sword left by his father.

The hand holding the dagger seemed to still be hot.

'Dad...'

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't take a step at all, and after realizing that his elder brother didn't get in the car, Liu Chenhao opened his mouth cautiously.

"Brother?"

His voice caught Seong Jin-Woo who was in deep thought.

Cheng Jin-Woo gently kissed the hilt of the dagger, and after putting the dagger into the subspace warehouse, he slowly got into the passenger seat.

"Let's go."

"Yes, brother!"

And so ended a long day.

***

The Hunter Association finally announced the monsters that appeared in S City as Warcraft of unknown origin.

The scale of damage left by the monsters to the city was enormous.

Countless people were killed and injured, many buildings collapsed and vehicles were lost.

But it doesn't just cause damage to humans.

Maybe it was a blessing in disguise.

The people have the ability to deal with the sudden crisis correspondingly.

In particular, the formidable power displayed by Hunter Seong Jin-Woo in the battle with the monsters changed the minds of people from all over the world at once.

Changed thinking is immediately reflected in action.

This change was initiated by an unexpected country that no one expected.

that night.
