Chapter 362

See? No one else is complaining. You should leave.

No, this...

The clan leader of the Black Sword Sect backed down with a look of betrayal. He didnt seem to be able to argue with an A-grade hunter.

At this moment, Choi Yeonseungs Future Sight skill was activated.

!

...It was a future in which the leader of the Black Sword Sect said nasty things about Choi Yeonseung in the Chinese hunter community and quietly tried to ruin his image.

...Eh, thats not a big issue.

Choi Yeonseung quickly calmed down after seeing the vision. He had initially thought that he would see a bleak future, but it was just a trivial detail.

-Maybe this is what it means to see the future.

The goddess of sloth made a suggestion about the ability.

Choi Yeonseung couldnt cherry pick the visions. Just like the goddess of balance, he would get all sorts of visions, some more useful than others.

Future Sight was a strong power that could shake even the mind of a constellation. Thus, it was impressive that the goddess of balance could use this power while also preserving her sanity.

-Didnt you say that she looked like a pushover?

-What do you mean?Dont say something that will make the constellation misunderstand.

The goddess of sloth passed over this matter as if she had done it countless times before.

Once the situation was settled, the clan leader of Myodusa, still bewildered, asked, Hunter Choi Yeonseung. Theres no way you picked us because were a Korean clan... May I ask the reason?

Youll find out one day.

Choi Yeonseung refused to explain. He couldnt tell the clan leader that he had used Future Sight to make the decision.

...!

The leader of the Myodusa clan looked baffled. Was the clan valuable in a way that he didnt know about? Did Hunter Choi Yeonseung see something special in Myodusa?

I should work hard.

The Myodusa clan leader vowed to do his best along with the clan hunters.

***

What? Senator McGlas has been kidnapped?

Choi Yeonseung was stunned. He had tried so hard to protect the politicians from the forces of the explosion constellation, but he still failed in the end.

Should I have protected him myself? No. Even if I had stepped up, the constellation wouldve just targeted someone else.

Choi Yeonseung decided not to blame himself as he was at a huge disadvantage anyway. His side had many vulnerabilities, and the explosion constellation only had to target one of them.

He asked, How badly were the hunters hurt?

No hunters were injured.

I see. Im glad. Tell them not to feel bad because it isnt their fault. If the constellation had stepped in directly, it wouldve been difficult even for an A-grade hunter to deal with the situation.

...Uh, Choi Yeonseung, Senator McGlas isnt our senator. The Albuquerque hunters were supposed to look after him, not us.

...!

Choi Yeonseung paused. No wonder the secretary informed him about the incident so calmly. Choi Yeonseung had actually wondered why the secretary was so nonchalant about the incident, but he figured that it wasnt any of his business.

Thats good.

Things didnt go well...?

Its fine, its none of my business. In any case, I understand. Im curious about the situation on site.

Choi Yeonseung decided to stop worrying. Instead, he would just stay on top of this situation indifferently. He had to wait and see what the evil god constellation was actually up to.

-The Brucol Building has been plunged into chaos.The evil god constellation who has kidnapped the senator hasnt made any demands so far.

-Some hunters have tried to approach the constellation, but they all failed!The evil god constellation warns that the hostage might lose his life if people keep trying to approach him!

This was an unprecedented situation: a building in the downtown area of a large city was being occupied and a senator was being held hostage in it.

Only an evil god constellation could pull off something like this.

The goddess of sloth listened to the urgent live broadcast and tried to come up with an explanation.

-Maybe hes trying to regain his strength.

-To what extent will he recover?

-I cant say exactly because Im not an evil god constellation, but...This stunt wont help the explosion constellation that much.Successor, you know this as well, right?Its unexpectedly hard to capture souls.

If this were a peaceful era without terrorism, the explosion constellation would be able to terrorize people and take their souls with a single act of terror.

However, the world was full of violence and terrorism. Unlike the early days of the Abyss gate, people were no longer distressed by news of monsters wreaking havoc. There was so much violence and chaos that people had become desensitized to it. Thus, they werent fazed at all by some minions of an evil god constellation committing acts of terrorism.

As such, the explosion constellation couldnt really terrorize people.

Fighting for our lives one-on-one? Has the explosion constellation lost his mind?

The hunters snorted at this ridiculous condition. Hunters fought as a team even against monsters of their rank, so risking their lives in a one-on-one duel was out of the question. These hunters wouldnt do it even if the explosion constellation threatened to destroy Earth, let alone to save a senator.

Hunter Grant, perhaps...

Im sorry, but my abilities arent suited for one-on-one fights

Hunter Garcia?

Ugh, I actually sustained quite a few injuries in China They havent healed yet because of interference from the Chinese side.

...

The senators aide realized that there was something wrong with the hunters present.

These bastards have no intention of helping!

The aide wanted to curse them into oblivion, but he exercised restraint with a patience of steel. Fighting with these hunters wouldnt make things better anyway.

Cant we just ignore his conditions and attack?

But then wed have to take responsibility for anything bad that happens...

Hunter Choi Yeonseung is here!

!

He really came??

The crowd of hunters was abuzz at the news that Choi Yeonseung was here. If any other hunter had come, they others wouldve said something like I guess theyre just here to show off. However, Choi Yeonseung was a bit different.

Maybe Maybe he was here to actually help?

Perhaps he was supposed to marry Senator McGlas daughter?

It sounds plausible...

P-plausible Are you guys nuts? The senator doesnt have a daughter.

***

The aides of the politicians were the countrys brightest minds.

The US senators were so authoritative that each of them could realistically be a candidate for president. Therefore, their aides werent considered secondary senators for nothing. They were outstanding people who had experience in all fields and were able to make the best decisions in all sorts of situations.

Among them, the senior adviser Mark was the leader, and he had made the best decision in this situation.

He had immediately gone to Choi Yeonseung.

Hunter Choi Yeonseung, youre the only one who can do this!

Hunter Choi Yeonseung, please!

Mark hadnt come alone; he had also brought Derek with him, another senator from the same party.

Senator Derek was a close friend of McGlas, who was being held hostage. He pleaded, Hunter Choi Yeonseung. If you save Senator McGlas, I will forever be indebted to you! Please!

-I think you had better help, Hunter Choi Yeonseung.

Adaquaniel advised Choi Yeonseung from next to him, and the latter nodded.

-I figured youd say this, Adaquaniel.You mustve been touched by his efforts to save his friend...

-Huh?No.Senator Derek is a leading figure in the Liberal Federalist Party. If you save his friend, hell owe you. Then youll be able to get him to pass any bill you want.

-......

Adaquaniel left Choi Yeonseung speechless, but she was right!

Im worried that Adaquaniel is adapting too quickly to Earth.

-I think that angel was always like that...

Choi Yeonseung ignored the goddess of sloth and focused on the situation at hand. He did so to see into the future.

It wasnt that he wasnt confident about winning, but he just wanted to confirm it.

What were the real intentions of the explosion constellation?

Ugh!

He felt his brain becoming twisted, as if he were trying to force himself to perform a difficult and esoteric martial art.

Dozens, or rather, hundreds of images flooded his mind; some of them were outrageous.

He could see himself teaching martial arts to the Abyssal races, humanity building factories in the Abyss and asking other races to work, the goddess of balance being happy as she hugged a small angel...

At any rate, one specific image convinced Choi Yeonseung of everything.

[The Goddess of Balance Who Walks Ahead asks if you are okay.]

Choi Yeonseung nodded.

What he saw in the future was a clear victory.
