Boundless Necromancer Chapter 87

087. Blue Sky Dragon (2) It

looks like Catherine Bennet sent

her eyes as if asking why I

was here .

I never imagined that Catherine Bennett would come from the United States, not from another country.

But Katherine Bennet was also very embarrassed, so she felt embarrassed.

‘The arena said they would visit later, so I thought it was intentional.’

It turned out that she had no idea I was here, too.

Because of that, it was a moment when an air of awkward silence flowed between them.

“Finally all the challengers have gathered.”

Chika Arie, who had guided me to the meeting room earlier, entered behind her

.

“I am Arie Chika, the president of the Japan Hunter Association.”

At those words, I widened my eyes and looked at Arie Chika.

‘The president of the Japanese Hunter Association?’

When she came to pick me up at the airport, I thought she was simply an employee of the association, but…

I couldn’t help but feel a sense of surprise when she said that she was the president of the Japan Hunter Association.

It was all the more so because he did not know that the president of the association would come to pick up a challenger whose name was not properly known.

“Thank you very much for responding to the request for support from the Japan Hunter Association.”

Of course, after a while, I looked at her with my composure regained.

Soon, Arie Chika looked at me with a serious face, taking turns looking at Catherine Bennett and me, and then opened her mouth.

“Do you know each other?”

After thinking about the question for a while, I immediately came up with an answer.

“To some extent. We met briefly at the tower.”

Actually, they met for a while and fought in the Colosseum until they died.

Catherine Bennett did not deny what I said.

I just bowed my head and came to the left of the seat where I was sitting and quietly sat down.

It was only then that Ariechika nodded as if she understood, and then opened her mouth again.

“okay. Great. I had to introduce her to you anyway.”

“…?”

“Currently, no further support will come to the Japan Hunter Association.”

The first to react to the remark was Oh Chun-seok, who was sitting still.

“Oh no. wait a minute. What do you mean by that? Are you saying that even in other countries there is no more support for hunters than challengers?”

“To put it bluntly… Hunters and Challengers won’t come anymore. The situation has become more serious than expected, so it seems that the challengers as well as the hunters are controlling support.”

“….”

Oh Chun-seok opened his mouth as if he was at a loss for words

.

It was the same for me too.

“….”

All unreasonable situations in the world are caused by lack of ability.

If Japan had not been a weak Hunter country, other countries would have actively supported Hunter.

It’s a country that’s worth that much, and it’s a fight with a high odds, so there’s not much to lose.

However, Japan is a country where there is only one S-class hunter and only 40 A-class hunters.

Even among those 40 A-class hunters, six of them have already died, and an S-class hunter from China has also been killed by dogs.

In this situation, no country would allow more aid to Japan, which was branded as a weak Hunter country.

There is no reason why we should help Japan even when it suffers huge losses.

‘That’s the reality.’

There won’t be any hunters or challengers who say they’ll go there.

To be honest, I have to say that the four challengers gathered here are abnormal.

Normally, no one will respond to a request for assistance even if they are told that they do not have to respond to a request for assistance in this situation.

“Currently, no one in Japan is willing to help.”

Arie Chika continued to speak, revealing a hint of gloom.

“I understand that the challengers are upset. The monster that appeared in Tokyo’s Shinjuku Ward definitely had abilities outside of the standard.”

However, she soon spoke with strength in her voice, as if slowly erasing the gloom.

“But we have the odds.”

As she said it, she looked at Katherine Bennett and said confidently.

“Katherine Bennett’s abilities can turn the tide of this fight in an instant.”

That she is the one who can take the initiative in this fight.

***

In an instant, all eyes in the conference room began to focus on me.

To be precise, to Catherine Bennet, who was sitting right next to me.

“…Among the powers I possess, there is something called ‘Fire Suppression’.”

Only then did she break the silence and open her mouth to explain her abilities.

“If I can touch an opponent stronger than me with the sparks triggered by this authority, the opponent’s maximum stats will decrease by -10 and some skills will be randomly sealed.”

I could understand why Chika Arie saw her and said that she would change the game in this fight.

“…Looks like you’ve got a good manager. Acquiring such fraudulent authority?”

Even Kim Seung-hoon, who had hardly opened his mouth until now, spat out a word as if he was dumbfounded.

The ability that Catherine Bennett currently revealed to possess was truly fraudulent.

“I will not deny it.”

Katherine Bennet said the same, maintaining a haughty face.

Then, he glanced at me and smiled softly.

Should I say it’s the bright eyes of a puppy looking for praise?

“Incredible.”

I couldn’t help but spit out a word feeling the burden in the eyes that wanted a reaction.

“Yes?”

Only then did I smile as I watched Catherine Bennet nodding her head in satisfaction.

At first glance, the outward appearance is arrogance itself, but I didn’t expect this to happen just because I heard a compliment.

It wasn’t that I didn’t feel like a child, but I thought so and turned my head.

“Anyway… through her ability, we can seize victory.”

Ariechika soon cleared her voice and began to speak.

“However, the conditions for her ability to activate are important.”

Conditions for activating authority.

I opened my mouth and opened my eyes.

“The flame must reach the challenger of the other world.”

“That’s right. If not, they said that the ability called authority would not be activated.”

“But there’s no way that challenger from the other world will be greeted by the flames.”

“…”

“In short, we need to create a situation where Catherine-san can activate ‘Fire Suppression’.”

“You are wise. It is as it says.”

Hearing those words, Kim Seung-hoon threw the words out as if there was something special.

“I can make that much.”

After that, Oh Chun-seok hesitated as if he was anxious, then nodded.

“Um… I don’t know if it’s possible, but I’ll try my best.”

Surprisingly, I didn’t have confidence in my voice, but I knew Oh Chun-seok’s skills.

Perhaps it was because he mastered magic-type skills professionally, he swept through large-scale battles.

Of course, he couldn’t win against me because he supplemented his stamina and mana through the commander.

Even so, Oh Chun-seok was clearly a strong man to call him weak.

There wasn’t much to worry about.

and-.

“I don’t think we have anything more to say, so let’s start right away.”

I didn’t have anything more to consider.

Recently, in the waiting room, I even learned how to properly use sword skills.

It was my conclusion that, in fact, there would be no situation that would hold the party back.

Arie Chika also looked at me and nodded in agreement.

“…if no one wants to come up with a more specific plan, I will.”

Of course, none of the four wanted to come up with a more detailed plan.

It was a kind of catch (雜技) that occurred while climbing the tower to judge each other’s skills.

All of them instinctively saw that none of those who came here were immature enough to share strategies and fight.

“I will respect your decision. A helicopter is currently waiting on the roof, so please leave immediately.”

Ariechika immediately led me out of the conference room, and I followed.

It didn’t take long to go up to the roof and board the helicopter.

As soon as I got on the helicopter, I felt a movement accompanied by noise and the helicopter departed toward the destination.

They didn’t even talk to each other properly, and most of them just closed their eyes and waited for their arrival without moving.

Even Oh Chun-seok, who had been embarrassed and nervous earlier, had a calm face, as if waiting for the upcoming fight.

Only Katherine Bennett looks out and then glances at me.

It seemed that they did not expect this fight to be so difficult.

Is it because of the history of encountering challengers from the other world many times?

It was around the time I was thinking about him.

“…Originally, I didn’t intend to meet like this.”

Katherine Bennett, who had only glanced at me, suddenly said so.

“…?”

“Actually, I wanted to meet you on a more normal level.”

“We haven’t met normally in the first place, so how can we meet normally?”

“That’s… well, that’s it. Even our first meeting wasn’t normal. ha.”

Soon Katherine Bennet accepted the fact and lamented it.

“There’s something I want to know… Are you a newcomer with experience?”

“What do you mean?”

“Because I searched for you on the Korean Hunter Association site.”

“…”

“But there was only one record on the Korean Hunter Association site.”

“There, I must have emerged as a C-class hunter.”

After all, to Catherine, I could have felt like a retired Hunter.

Apart from getting stronger in the tower, I became a C-class hunter in the hunter test.

It was because there weren’t that many records of being active as a Hunter since then.

“But whatever you think, you’re most likely wrong.”

“…?”

“Before I entered the Tower, I wasn’t a Hunter.”

“What the hell is that…”

It was the moment when Catherine asked as if she was dumbfounded.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!!

Suddenly, an explosion sounded outside and the building collapsed.

I was shocked and at the same time looked at Ariechika who was riding in the same helicopter.

“…It seems that the challenger from the other world is rampaging.”

She looked at the situation outside and immediately drooled as she replied.

“Ever since the death of Paeng Ziwen, who responded to the request for assistance from China, they have been destroying the city center like this.”

“….”

“They started rampaging right around the time we were riding the helicopter and moving. Now you have to prepare for battle.”

“okay.”

The things he did as if he were a challenger from the Moorim dimension were far beyond the expected range.

I never imagined that they would make such a fuss because they didn’t bring me.

I frowned at him, then made up my mind and stood up to talk to Catherine.

Looking at the situation that has become more serious than I thought, I couldn’t stay still.

“Catherine, can you land in the air?”

“…yes? What does that mean?”

“Because I came up with a good idea. If this works, you should be able to activate the power right away.”

“Uh… I wonder if I can land somehow from this height?”

“That should be enough.”

I immediately went outside the helicopter with one arm around her waist.

“…!?”

“Excuse me for a moment.”

“Wait a minute! What are you trying to do…!?”

“What is it?”

「The authority ‘Steel Wings’ is activated.」

“Flying.”

And at the same time, I left the helicopter, controlling the heterogeneity of the wings extending from my back.

Whoa!

Like a bird, it spread its wings and flew toward the center of the city where a roaring noise arose.

And at a speed that can only be called transcendental.
