Chapter 71

Chapter 71

[Why?]

[...It's nothing.]

If it's nothing, why is he looking at me like that? I frowned and grabbed Sung Yoo-bin's hand. I felt a little strange because her skin felt smoother than usual, maybe because we were underwater.

[Hunter Han Yi-jin, please use your skill and get as far away from here as possible.]

[Understood.]

[It's dangerous, so don't linger nearby.]

[I understand.]

I nodded my head to the overprotective Sung Yoo-bin, and also applied the skill to Han Yeo-reum behind her. Han Yeo-reum, who was bleary-eyed, suddenly opened her mouth.

[Ah, I really want him. Would you like to join our guild?]

[But I'm a man.]

[Eyy, maybe the Freya Guild should change its policy. Or dressing up as a woman? How about dressing up as a woman.]

[...I don't want to.]

[Don't be so cold-hearted, I think you'd look good in it.]

[Ah, I don't want to!]

I screamed, but no sound came out, so I wasn't sure if she felt my frustration. Shaking my head, I finally approached Kang Yoo-hyun. Kang Yoo-hyun stared at me with his mouth closed. I opened my mouth, facing him.

[What are you doing? Give me your hand too.]

[...]

Kang Yoo-hyun, who frowned as if he didn't like something, said defiantly.

[Hand? Last time you touched a sensitive spot.]

[...]

Ugh, seriously, this guy. He was still bothered by that incident. But, I don't have a very good personality either, so I responded to Kang Yoo-hyun's words with a little annoyance.

[Then, where should I touch instead of your hand? Should I touch your face like last time?]

[...]

Kang Yoo-hyun's gaze was ominous for some reason. It was when I was nervously looking at Kang Yoo-hyun's slightly parted lips.

Boom!

[...!]

An explosion suddenly sounded from a distance. Startled, I looked towards the source of the sound. I could see a huge Sea Dragon moving its body.

[Sea Dragon Rashdir

Rank: ??

Level: ??

? ?? ?? ??, ?? ?? ??

...]

Rashdir's entire body was yellow. I don't know if it's because I saw from a distance, or its scales were yellow, or because the light emitted from its passive skill was yellow. But why is the boss monster moving already? No one had approached that area yet.

The emergency situation kept the Valkyrie members busy. The Valkyrie members, who continued to push the elite monsters back, started shouting at each other.

[The boss monster is moving!]

[Where did the 1st Battalion go?]

[Here they come!]

[The barrier...!]

Bang!

[Whoa...!]Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

I was knocked backward by the rushing water, and a strong arm grabbed my body.

[Kang Yoo-hyun...!]

[Stay still.]

I glanced back at Kang Yoo-hyun as he wrapped his arms around me. My view was blocked by his body, so I couldn't see what was going on.

[Kkyau!]

My surroundings started shaking violently. I was surprised and looked around that the entire support team had never seen anything like this before in a boss fight.

[...!]

Then, something exploded and soared from the ground behind the support team. My eyes widened when I saw a young girl nearby.

[Kyaaa!]

[Hunter Guseul...!]

I didn't know how I could move so fast when I couldn't even swim properly. When I came to, I found myself holding Guseul's small body.

[Ugh...!]

I felt a huge blow on my back. I rolled around on the bottom of the deep sea while holding Guseul.

[Hun—hunter Han Yi-jin...]

[Kugh.]

I could feel Guseul shaking with fear. I hugged her tightly. Then, I saw something rising from the bottom of the sea.

[Keuoo...!]

[...!]

Emerging from the bottom of the sea was a monster that looked like a pitch black lump. Gradually, it started to take shape. My eyes shook when I saw it.

[Why is that...?]

I doubted my eyes. The shape of the monster rising from the ground resembled the Dead King, Draugr, that I had seen in the Alfheim Dungeon.

[Keueueu...!]

[...!]

I felt as if the grey eyes I met were smiling. I had goosebumps all over my body.

[Kyaaa!]

[Yong-sik! Ugh...!]

Starting with that monster, numerous Draugr began to emerge from the ocean bottom. In the midst of the support team where non-combatants gathered, elite monsters of unknown rank were constantly surfacing.

[Hunter Guseul, can you get up?]

[Yes, yes.]

Somehow I have to lure the monsters towards the Valkyrie members. I took out my gun from the inventory and aimed at the rushing monsters.

Bang!

[Kyaa!]

[Run, quickly!]

[But...]

[Hurry!]

As I shouted, Guseul's body trembled and hesitated before retreating. She immediately turned away from me, who was shooting frantically. I glanced at Guseul who was heading towards the Valkyrie members and looked away in relief.

[Hey, Eden!]

[Yi Jin-ah!]

Eden, who had swept away the monsters in the surrounding area with his wind ability, approached me. His eyes scanned my body. I nodded that I was okay and looked at Eden as he approached.

[Let's do that.]

[What?]

[What you're good at.]

[...?]

I grabbed Eden's hand with his eyes wide open then I boosted his ability.

[Monster hunting.]

[Ah.]

Eden, who hadn't received my auxiliary skill from me in a while, smiled.

[That's my specialty.]

Eden nodded and put his arm around my waist.
