Episode 428

Observation

It was boring to say the dictionary terms of this word. However, how the hunter world uses the word observation was quite an interesting story.

“...I’m so exhausted. The moment we recognized each other, the other recognized us too.”

The moment Yura interpreted the writings on the wall, purple waves rolled across the Delta Tower and Yura despaired.

“What do you mean you noticed?”

“Among the bosses, there are those who hide themselves. When the Secretariat finds him, they say [Observation succeeded].”

Yura opened a barrier and trapped Shin Yoo-seong. I tried to send them to the base camp like the survivors I saved earlier, but Shin Yoo-seong did not move.

“My abilities just stopped working. I couldn’t read the coordinates after the purple wave happened.”

“It is not a simple barrier.”

Yura nodded her head with difficulty at Shin Yoo-seong’s words. The warp that Yura uses is space movement, not dimension movement.

If you climb the tower and move to a dimension, you can move in the same dimension of the floor, but it is impossible to move directly to the earth.

“...Look Carefully. Doesn’t this floor look different from before?”

Shin Yoo-seong looked around at Yura’s words. The situation was sudden and I didn’t recognize it, but the patterns engraved on the wall were gone, and there were no bizarre mannequins.

Rather, this place looked more like an art gallery than a department store.

“We were on the 4th floor. The museum is on the 5th floor of the Delta Tower. It means that you won’t be sent back gracefully once your true identity is discovered.”

“Then, senior. What is that shimmering light? It wasn’t mana.”

Moving a person to a desired place without mana was too absurd for the common sense that Hunters had learned so far.

“That’s like... How do I explain this. okay. Because I made a mistake that can’t be forgiven by you.”

‘An unforgivable mistake?’

“I will explain everything.”

But Yura was different.

Yura was a genius who never missed the top of the writing class at the academy. Of course, out of the more than 10 written subjects, my favorite is studying ‘ancient languages’ and ‘legends’ of each dimension.

“...You said you were a freshman, so it’s only natural that you don’t know. I’ve never seen a pervert like me crazy about this field, even in my senior year.”

Yura pulled out a piece of chalk from somewhere. Like an analog walkie-talkie, it was a rare thing in this era.

“Look Carefully.”

However, as if this was not the first time Yura had taught her colleague, she began to draw proficiently on art objects made of rocks.

“The concept of mana we know is an explanation that is valid from the hunter’s point of view.”

Yura drew lines on the rock and drew a figure of a hunter using mana.

“Most of the hunters use the mana in their bodies. Thanks to that, even without a catalyst to bind it, the release of power is made by one’s own will.”

A hunter with a cute drawing drawn by Yura was shooting a water gun with [Mana] written on it at the monster.

“But what if you want to use the power outside of the mana you have?”

This time, the hunter Yura drew was looking at the leisurely flowing river with [Mana] written on it.

It was like a leader who had just created a civilization and was thinking about how to use the river to benefit humans.

“Creating a catalyst that will guide mana in the desired direction... or something like that?”

“I thought I quit, but it was good that I continued to carry it.”

Then, after lighting a cigarette neatly with mana, he emphasized it by waving it in front of Shin Yoo-seong.

“You never smoke like this.”

Apparently, the reason why Yura explained all this to Shin Yoo-seong was not to attack the boss.

“...at first it was curiosity.”

“Are you talking about cigarettes?”

“Foot no, not that.”

The first was curiosity.

Yura was a student who liked ancient languages and legends, so she just wanted to follow the story she read in a book.

“Take a book from the library and go up the stairs. When you step on the 13th step, close your eyes and count 13 seconds in your mind...”

Yura traced her memory. The story Yura spits out is like a well-crafted school ghost story.

However, the source of this story was not Yura’s academy. It was an old book from a different dimension where no one knows who wrote it.

“If you have counted 13 seconds, make a wish in your heart and go down the 14 steps with your eyes still closed...”

Finishing the story, Yura put a cigarette in her mouth. Then he took a sip of smoke and coughed like crazy.

“Kek Coke-! Coke! Oh, it’s been a long time since I haven’t received it...”

“That story sounds like an ordinary ghost story. I heard a similar ghost story at Gaon.”

“yes. It’s a story that could happen anywhere.”

Yura threw the cigarette he was smoking on the ground and smiled shyly.

“I only climbed 13 steps that day, but I actually went down 14 steps. Can you believe it?”

Yura smiled at Shin Yoosung.

“And when you open your eyes.”

It didn’t matter whether Shin Yuseong believed his words or not. It was after Yura had already finished organizing her mind.

“I saw a woman wearing transparent lace. Half of her body is a skeleton and half of her body is so beautiful...”

Say your wish.

She said to Yura:

I didn’t even think about what I would accomplish or what I would wish for, so I simply answered.

[I want to become stronger.]

I woke up from my dream like that.

The place where Yura was lying was the bed in the infirmary. However, after that day, Yura’s body overflowed with unknown power. Among the classmates, he became a 6th grade hunter at the earliest age.

“...I always had a bad feeling. But I found out today that it’s time to pay for meeting her.”

Having already given up on everything, Yura sighed.

“Did you say you had a colleague?”

“yes.”

Shin Yuseong wondered what Yura was trying to say. I wondered what the veteran and active hunter senior would say to him.

“...you stay here. I’ll go upstairs by myself.”

However, what came out of Yura’s mouth was none other than a declaration of giving up.
