Episode 161 Outdoor Camp (4)
“You… are you really going to catch that monster?”
Kwon So-yul asked as if he was genuinely fed up. It was because the grade of the monster that Jaehyun asked to track down a while ago was too high.
‘What the hell happened to this guy who ate his brain?!’
Kwon So-yul clicked his tongue and glared at Jae-hyun. Before joining the camp for the first time, he asked him to search for traces of a monster in the field.
At this time, the monster that Jaehyun asked to track down was an A+ level boss. Magic resistance and defense were very high, so it was difficult to deal with if there were no abnormal status skills or weapons.
From Kwon So-yul’s point of view, it was absurd.
“What kind of 17-year-old cadet in the world goes to catch an A+-class witch beast?”
“The rate of growth varies from person to person. Why are you making such a fuss?”
“If you can’t speak.”
Haha, Kwon So-yul let out a small sigh and looked at Jae-hyun’s unfortunate face.
‘No matter how strong Min Jae-hyun is, is it really possible to defeat an A+-rank boss? At most, he’s still a student.’
It was something to worry about in many ways. Both as a raider and as a senior at the academy.
Although Jaehyun played with him during the freshman hunt and was embarrassed, it was Jaehyun who saved him from the clutches of Circle Seed.
At least I didn’t want to see him die in such a shabby city.
“Will you think again? Although I’m usually not meddling in other people’s affairs…”
“It’s okay. Don’t worry.”
However, Jaehyun was stubborn.
He was talking as if the monster he had to deal with was nothing.
Kwon So-yul responded angrily.
“That’s a death flag. I don’t know either. Be careful not to die.”
Jaehyun shrugged.
Kwon So-yul sighed again and crossed his arms.
‘I can’t help it. Min Jaehyun Even though that guy acts recklessly, he’s not a thoughtless guy.
Besides… Anyway, since I’m the club leader now, I have no choice but to listen to instructions.’
She made up her mind and opened her mouth.
“To begin with, I have already found some traces of the Witchbeast you want. It won’t take long.”
“That’s good.”
Jaehyun raised an eyebrow in response.
‘As expected, Kwon So-yul is valuable. It was a good choice to bring him in even at the risk of friction between circles.’
Soyul Kwon. I didn’t bring her here just to get good results in the event.
In the first place, Jaehyun brought her here to entrust her with a more demanding job. To use in the current situation.
‘Closed city. In the center of this place, there are hidden items that can be useful until the future.’
Jaehyun was thinking of acquiring this item before the battle with Heimdall.
* * *
Kkong- Kkong-.
“Eutcha!”
“Huh!”
A pharmaceutical building that Jaehyun and his colleagues decided to use as a temporary shelter.
Ahn Ho-yeon and Kim Yoo-jung are moving materials and setting up a tent with a loud sound.
A thumping sound reverberates intermittently, and the skeleton is gradually erected, and a specially treated magic cloth covers it. The initially bland appearance gradually disappears, and a plausible tent comes into view before I know it.
Jaehyun’s eyes, which had been watching this, briefly turned to his smartphone.
‘6 o’clock. good. This is fast enough. After all, it was good to train the kids.’
Jaehyun nodded his head in satisfaction.
I found a place to live much earlier than I initially thought. In order to search inside the city afterwards, it is better to shorten the simple repetition time as much as possible.
The current direction is favorable.
“Then the tent must have been damaged. Let’s take care of the food issue first and set a vigil.”
When Jaehyun let go of his rhyme, the party nodded in agreement.
They didn’t say anything, but everyone was exhausted from consuming a lot of calories. It was unavoidable because Radar’s calorie consumption was quite different from that of ordinary people.
Now is the time when protein and high-calorie foods are desperate.
It’s time to start hunting soon.
“so. Who will go hunting?”
Kim Yoo-jung asked as she sat down on a nearby large stone as if tired.
After looking around at his colleagues, Jaehyun replied with a small smile.
“I will go hunting. You guys get some rest.”
In the evening you have to move again. Now that the party is exhausted, it is better for Jaehyun to move.
There.
‘Anyway, after a while, ‘that guy’ must also be dealt with. You’d better relax now.’
Thinking so, Jaehyun gets up. Suddenly, Kwon So-yul’s voice was heard from behind with his hands in his pockets.
“There are three types of monsters confirmed around here. Harpy Worm Goblin. It’s better to be careful, so let me know in advance.”
Kwon So-yul waved his hands and said so. It seemed to be the information of the nearby monsters collected using a unique skill.
‘It’s a surprisingly steady type.’
Jaehyun replied with a smile.
“Senior, while grumbling, he takes good care of you?”
“shut up.”
Kwon So-yul sighed and shook his head. The colleagues sitting next to her smiled and looked at her with coy eyes.
Kwon So-yul shook his head and kept his mouth shut.
After a while, Jaehyun turns around and tries to walk away.
This time, Lee Jae-sang’s hand suddenly intervened in front of his eyes.
“Hey hey, go take this too!”
What Lee Jae-sang handed out to Jae-hyun was something similar to insecticide.
‘spray?’
When Jaehyun tilted his head, Jaesang Lee immediately added an explanation.
“This is a specially treated spray! If you kill the Demon Beast and spray it around, you will be able to completely erase my smell!”
aha. Jaehyun sighed and looked at Lee Jaesang.
‘Now the chancellor hyung made a kind of deodorant spray. A tool that erases odors and traces so that demons cannot track the radar.’
Lee Jae-sang proudly pushed his chest forward, explaining that this spray erases the reverberation of the magic power left by the raiders. He seemed to consider himself a masterpiece.
“…It’s a wonderful thing.”
Not that it wasn’t, but it was a really great item.
Items that act as deodorants are usually difficult to obtain. Jaehyun had never seen anything in the form of a spray like this.
‘You’ve been confined to the lab lately. It must have been made at that time.’
The moment Jaehyun thought so. Lee Jae-sang crossed his arms and said.
“It’s a brain bribe prepared by me the whole time!”
‘…Usually when you give a bribe, do you give it while saying it’s a bribe?’
Seeing Jaesang talking with a big smile, Jaehyun smiled in tandem.
“thank you. Then I will go.”
“……Shall I go with you too?”
Seo Ina, who was sitting next to him, asked, but Jaehyun shook his head.
“Get some rest now. It’s okay because I have some stamina left.”
“……huh.”
After briefly saying hello, Jaehyun left the residence alone.
‘It’s not a bad thing to go hunting with colleagues… but not right now.’
Jaehyun licked his lips. Contrary to what he had been laughing and talking about a while ago, his expression darkened before he knew it.
‘No matter how you think about it, it’s strange. What is this magic power in the air?’
A bizarrely thick reverberation of magical power that climbed up the body from a while ago. Jaehyun felt this and unknowingly shook his hand for a moment.
A strange sensation as if something huge and irresistible was slowly approaching, as if breathing was being choked, spread throughout Jaehyun’s body.
‘It’s more dangerous than the closed city I experienced before the regression. This must mean someone’s intervention.’
After thinking for a while, Jaehyun came to a conclusion.
“Heimdall realized that I had adjusted the schedule for the camp.”
A tone close to certainty. However, Jaehyun had no intention of making a hasty move.
Now it’s just one step at a time.
It is more important than anything else to faithfully realize what you have planned.
for now.
‘From food.’
* * *
After Jaehyun left.
The rest of the party in the residence were arguing (?) over a trivial matter.
By the way, the topic they were talking about was very trivial, and
it was who would be on duty for dinner.
Seo Eana was the first to speak out among the buzzing party.
“……Since I am most familiar with cooking, I want to be in charge of dinner.”
“Oh oh! we are good too As expected, Ina’s cooking is the best…”
“Wait.”
It was then.
Kim Yoo-jung, who recently gained confidence in cooking, suddenly intervened.
The group looked at her, feeling bleak.
After all, isn’t it wrong to have a sad premonition?
Kim Yoo-jung’s words were exactly what they expected.
“I’ll help too.”
“What do you mean by that……”
Ahn Ho-yeon said restlessly, but Kim Yoo-jung was stubborn.
“Recently I learned to cook on the Internet. I am really confident this time.”
“……Oh no. are you okay. Because there is also Lee Ia…….”
Lee Jae-sang also hit back in a cold sweat, but Kim Yoo-jung hit him on the back and seemed insignificant.
“no way. It’s really good this time! Don’t worry…”
“Stop that! You’re going to cook! What the heck does that mean…? As for the food we eat after a hard fight, please……”
Ahn Ho-yeon couldn’t stand it and raised her voice.
Kim Yoo-jung crossed her arms with a triumphant expression on her face.
“Are you really okay this time? My skills have improved quite a bit too. My mom recently ate my dish and it was so delicious that she fainted for a while before waking up?”
“……Yoo Jung-ah, maybe your mother fainted for a few minutes…….”
Seo Ina asked with a worried expression.
“About half a day? think about it How good would the food be?”
“Nanana, I have no new thoughts for dinner!”
Eventually, Lee Jae-sang declared a fasting and went out.
Kim Yoo-jung put her hand on her waist and let out a deep sigh.
‘Why are there so many cowards? People who want to be raiders!’
It was incomprehensible to her.
Isn’t it all about just tasting the food?
Moreover, this time I was really confident. Didn’t mom and dad say it was delicious?
Even worse, if it’s to the point of fainting for a while…!
Kim Yoo-jung wanted to somehow get her colleagues to taste her cooking and get rid of the false accusation of cooking.
“anyway! Let’s cook with Ina’s cooking!”
“Yes!”
“……Yoo Jung-ah, it’s just a majority……”
No one is on their side. Kim Yoo-jung looked back at Kwon So-yul with a depressed face.
“How is your sister? Would you like to try my cooking?”
“…… Seeing the kids’ reactions, I feel a bit uneasy.”
“no way. They’re just kidding.”
Kim Yoo-jung said while holding Kwon So-yul’s hands.
However, Kwon So-yul’s expression was not very good.
she saw
Behind Kim Yoo-jung’s back, Ahn Ho-yeon and Lee Jae-sang vigorously shook their heads.
‘…Are you mixing poison with the food…?’
Kwon So-yul sincerely thought about that and looked over the blue party.
An unpleasant wind blew past my ears once.
I guess…it didn’t feel right.
