CH 13

「I think it’s because Infinity Hunter hasn’t woken up yet. Even an infinite grade seems too unreasonable… Still, it’ll be okay, right? I hope she will wake up soon! 

I believe! I believe in Infinity Hunter! Everyone, please believe it too! 

Our Infinity Hunters will wake up soon and stand tall as the best hunters in the world! Winning gold medals in the Hunter Olympics, successfully attacking high-level dungeons, and cleaning numerous explosive dungeons!!! 

That brilliant future is about to unfold!!! Everyone, please don’t forget!!!」

Hunter Q on the screen shouted for the last time solemnly.

「Subscribe, Like, Alarm!!!」

Kim Changho hurriedly pressed the keyboard of his laptop to stop the screen on WuTube from moving to another video.

Stupid and tactless. 

As a result of the failure to control the power, the middle of the keyboard was damaged.

Naturally, the laptop died.

“…Damn it.”

After taking a deep breath, Kim Changho picked up the phone.

“Bring me a new laptop.”

It was someone else who came in after the knock, not the secretary.

The team leader of the government’s legal law, Jo Soohyang. 

‘Did I wash my face properly today?!’

Kim Changho panicked for a moment.

“I brought it while I was coming in.”

Jo Soohyang placed the laptop on the edge of the desk.

It was out of reach of Kim Changho. 

“If I keep it close, you’ll break it again.”

“…I will put it on my personal reimbursement list.”

“Of course you should. We can’t waste our taxes.”

“….”

“Stop watching WuTube.”

“H, how did you know I was watching WuTube?”

“I didn’t know. I was just saying, but I got it right.”

“….”

“Whose WuTube did you watch?”

“…Hunter Q.”

“Oh, that advertiser.”

“I can see why he’s called advertisers. What kind of ads is he putting in so much?!”

As I talked, I remembered the anger over the advertisement that popped out whenever it was important.

“Again, don’t watch WuTube anymore. What should I do if you’re just so angry at the Hunter Q broadcast? Hunter Q is pretty good.” 

“Pretty good?”

“Yes, there are too many advertisements, but the content is fine. He warmly welcomed Hunter Lee Heesun and hoped she would get better soon. It’s not like he spread Lee Heesun’s personal information with no concept. Although he makes false claims that she’s a dark priest.”

“Personal information, how much has it been stolen?”

Jo Soohyang replied by handing over the documents.

‘Real name, age, ID number, home address, mobile phone number, e-mail address, Talk ID, current high school, university and department name to which she has been accepted….’

It was basic.

There were names of middle schools, elementary schools, and daycare centers, as well as attitudes at the time of attending them, reputations, friendships, and so on. 

There were also records of activities in internet cafes, but there were only a few of them.

It was because she hardly ever used the Internet, unlike a teenager these days. 

“South Korean netizens are really….”

Kim Changho stuck out his tongue.

He expected this, but it was more than he imagined.

‘In fact, it’s likely to happen.’

It was the first and only infinite rating in the world.

And a week ago. 

‘Something like that happened.’

In less than a day after becoming a hunter, she defeated an SS Class Hunter, that Ninja punk who is the most hated by Koreans, with just a few words.

And. 

‘The Minister—’

Kim Changho swallowed his dry saliva.

It’s been a week since that happened.

However, the public’s interest in Hunter Lee Heesun was still extremely hot.

No, the temperature of interest was boiling more and more.

‘It’s just one example of personal information being circulated.’

Fortunately, it was not yet known that she was a child of a single mother.

It was because Lee Nahyun told others that her husband died when she was pregnant with her daughter.

The mother and daughter’s last name was also a common ‘Lee,’ so they didn’t think she was a single mother.

But for Kim Changho, it was just a matter of time before this exploded.

‘Then there will be people who point fingers at Lee Nahyun.’

It’s safe to say that she hasn’t had any negative reactions so far. 

Basically, it was because Koreans really liked and respected hunters.

And Hunter Lee Heesun itself was full of positive elements.

She is the best hunter in the world, and her performance last week was incredible. She was also such a good student that Korea University Medical School accepted her.

‘Even in the era of ability like this, Koreans are weak against highly educated people.’ 

Hunter Lee Heesun had very good friends, especially close friends who actively stepped up and spread good stories.

It wasn’t the only one.

Reporters who found out that they almost died because of Ninja wrote related articles unconditionally well.

‘Hunters in Korea are also active.’

He worked hard to get rid of strange rumors, personal information, and bad words said about Hunter Lee Heesun by getting all his employees involved.

Hunter Lee Heesun’s existence itself raised his pride as a South Korean hunter and could be helped in the future, so it was natural.

‘If possible, it is also to attract them to their guild.’ 

Whatever the purpose was, it was nice to help the Department of Ability, especially the legal management team. 

Thanks to this, Jo Soohyang, the head of the legal management team, was less difficult.

Yeah, even though there are limits to that.

Kim Chang-ho asked cautiously.

“Did you get some sleep last night?”

Jo Soohyang had large dark circles on her face.

It was not like a perfect person in her usual work and outfit.

“Yes, I slept.”

“2 hours?”

“3 hours.” 

Kim Changho swallowed his dry saliva and gathered up his courage.

He opened the drawer and pulled something out.

“…This, would you like to eat this?”

It was Bacchus.

Something that can be exchanged lightly between colleagues.

However, Kim Changho was incredibly nervous, as if he was about to face the final boss in a high-level dungeon.

“No. I just drank it.”

Jo Soohyang politely refused.

Kim Changho shrunk, unlike a person with a large body enough to match his Hunter’s name, Bull.

“I, I see.” 

“You can have it, Vice Minister. The Vice Minister is much busier than I am.”

It was.

In fact, Kim Changho was dying.

Minister Lee Beomjin has been unable to go to work since a week ago, so he, the Vice Minister, has been handling all the affairs of the Department of Ability at the forefront.

‘Even though it’s still easy to deal with the Blue House, politicians, and reporters.’

They are cooperative so far.

But other countries were a big problem.

They were asking all kinds of questions about Hunter Lee Heesun and making all kinds of requests in this situation, like cleaning up the explosion dungeon in their country.

‘Still, it’s fine up to that point.’

Either way, he was able to endure it.

However, Japan simply couldn’t do that.

– Please return our kidnapped ninja!

Those people were making this claim.

As if Ninja had never put a Ninjatō in the heart of Korea’s greatest hero.

As if he had never tried to brutally kill Lee Heesun’s mother, Lee Nahyun, in front of her eyes to cause her to explode.

As if he had never tried to destroy the Republic of Korea by exploding the Department of Ability’s building and Hunter’s office.

As if he’s not a terrorist but an innocent victim.

‘You crazy people!!!’

There was a reason why Kim Changho didn’t rush to shout the words that came up from his soul.

It was because Lee Parkhee, the secretary who was present at the meeting with the Japanese ambassador to Korea, did that first.

Secretary Lee Parkhee is an ordinary person and has never learned anything like fighting.

However, he punched the Japanese ambassador to Korea very accurately.

‘X cool—!’

Kim Changho’s honest impression was so.

However, as a Vice Minister, the action was not to be taken with pleasure. 

The use of violence against the ambassador of one country. 

‘X enough.’

It was just that.

After that, he really, really, really wanted to die.

‘I want to write my resignation—!’

While holding down that impulse, he did his best to deal with it.

As a result, he couldn’t sleep a wink, but the secretary, who couldn’t watch, told him to keep his eyes closed for a while. 

But he couldn’t sleep, so he turned on WuTube once and made his laptop look like that.

‘I can’t control my power like this.’

Although it has been a while since he was inactive in the field, it was something to reflect on as a Hunter.

“For the third time, don’t watch WuTube. Sleep at that time.” 

“…Yes.” 

“Since the report is over, I will leave.” 

Jo Soohyang left immediately.

Kim Changho looked blankly in the direction where she had left and let out a sigh. 

He can only do well in front of his bosses and that Ninja punk, but he can’t even tell a woman he’s liked for a long time how he feels.

No, he couldn’t even give a Bacchus as a colleague. 

“Damn it…” 

When he sighed again, the cell phone next to the computer monitor rang, and the screen lit up.

[Sender: Our Minister]

Kim Chang-ho moved so fast that his eyebrows fluttered.

As soon as he pressed the call button, he shouted.

“Is she awake?!” 

***

My eyelids were too heavy.

During my favorite idol singer’s last concert, I stood for more than 4 hours and fell asleep as if fainting under the influence of it, and waking up at noon the next day.

‘No, more than that.’

At that time, I could open my eyes and move my body slowly because I tried hard.

This time it was different.

I tried, but I couldn’t open my eyes, and I couldn’t control my body.

‘What? What’s wrong with me?’

I was scared, but I soon remembered it.

About why I’m in this situation.

‘Certainly, this body is too small and weak.’

It was very unsuitable for using strong grace powers such as revival spells.

Moreover, the saved person was not an ordinary person, it was an SS Class.

As much as Hunter Lee Beomjin was strong, the grace was enormous.

‘Have I used a strong magic power before that?’

The spell was short, but it took some magic power to subdue the SS Class.

‘I vomited blood…Mom must be really worried. Let’s open my eyes!’

I tried hard to open it.

‘It’s Mom!’

She fell asleep on the edge of the bed, in a position that wasn’t very comfortable.

Her face was just barely visible, but I could see it.

Mom was very haggard.

Probably because of her worries about her daughter.

‘I’m sorry….’

I apologized in my heart. 

My mom was still sleeping, and I had no energy to talk.

‘Is it a reservation for 100 smashes on the back—?’

Still, I couldn’t help it.

But I don’t regret it.

‘Where is Hunter Lee Beomjin?’
