S-Class Hunter Heals with Monsters - Chapter 215



Only Krnovel

215. Doping Dodak and Sasa

The AA team was embarrassed by the host’s words.

Clearly, the Coconut Family had some serious sabotage planned.

If things had gone according to plan, there was no way they could have maintained the comfortable state the host had said.

They looked at the Coconut Family team in surprise. The first thing they saw was the sparrow mask man lying on the ground.

“What, what? You fell down.”

“The host got the team name wrong… Hey, wait a minute! That’s not a collapse!”

It looked like he had collapsed for a moment because of the dust, but a closer look revealed that it wasn’t.

The sparrow masked man was lying on his side, propping his head on one hand and raising one leg with the knee bent.

That’s the pose of an elderly person watching TV in the living room.

“Ah, it’s the living room…! I can see the living room behind that person!”

Someone shouted. Yoo Beom stretched his other hand forward. The shape of his hand seemed to be holding something.

“That, that’s…! It’s a remote control!”

“It’s a TV remote control.”

“Oh, no! This is just like my dad watching TV in the living room!”

There was a cheer from the stands. The AA team groaned as well.

That’s perfect. Anyone who looks at that will be able to guess the correct answer.

As the audience expected, Yujia raised her hand.

“Correct answer!”

Everyone thought of the living room with one mind. If not the living room, then the TV. If not that, then the remote control.

Obviously, the correct answer would be one of the three. As expected, Yujia said something completely different.

“The answer is grilled clams!”

Jumunjin, who was thrown onto the playground, made her voice resonate everywhere.

Grilled clams. Silence fell upon that absurd answer. Not only the audience but also the participants looked dumbfounded.

“What did you just say… clam, huh?”

“Grilled clams? That? Why?”

“Wow, you can’t guess that one?”

People were confused. But Yujia was unwavering.

‘That’s a picture of them stacking grilled clams in a bowl and eating them.’

Yujia thought. It was like when she came back from going out and offered him grilled clams, asking if he wanted some too.

I couldn’t help but recognize it, having seen it for 60 years.

[This, this is…! Amazing! That’s right! The answer was grilled clams!]

The host shouted. The people murmured at that.

I couldn’t understand how anyone could associate that appearance with grilled clams.

[This is really amazing. The clam grill was said to be a difficult problem worth 5 points. The Coconut Family Team got a high score from the first problem!]

“Wow… Waaaaah!”

“I don’t know what it is, but it’s cool!”

“How did you get it right! Good!”

Everyone laughed in amazement. Of course, the AA team did not laugh.

I didn’t like the fact that the Coconut Family was in the lead, but more than anything, I was embarrassed that they had spread their arms and performed with their own delusions.

‘Look, no one saw it, right?’

They lowered their heads with reddened faces.

What on earth is that team? How do they feel so comfortable in their own home amidst all this sandstorm and tornado?

I thought it was a show, but they all seemed relaxed.

[Oh, Coconut Family Team! They’re doing something again! The Sparrow Mask player is crouching down. He puts both hands on his head and nods… Oh no, this is it!]

“Correct answer. Rabbit!”

[This is correct again!]

The host shouted, clenching his fist.

Even though I got a punch in the eye from seeing a muscular man imitating a rabbit, anyway.

He relayed the situation without forgetting his duty.

“Wow… That’s cool!”

“Your courage to imitate a rabbit without hesitation! Awesome, bro!”

The audience’s reaction was good. That made the AA team anxious.

They too began to read the signs and imitate them in a hurry. Other teams also struggled to read the signs in the sandstorm.

‘Let’s get moving too!’

Each team’s saboteurs began their activities.

“Burn the opposing team’s signs!”

“There was no rule saying you couldn’t touch the sign! It was just to keep them from seeing it!”

Fireballs were fired toward the opposing team’s sign. Water arrows were also raining down. Electricity was also flying around.

The audience erupted in cheers at the splendid spectacle.

Even the Coconut Family team, which was in first place, was hit with sabotage.

“I’ll melt the sign with hydrochloric acid!”

No matter how well you look ahead, it’s no use if the sign disappears.

The AA team’s saboteur made a lump of hydrochloric acid by hand and threw it.

Okay. We won. The moment I thought that, Cheon Do-woon intervened.

He slapped the hydrochloric acid jelly away with his hand. It fell with a clatter, creating a deep hole in the floor.

“Wow, that’s ridiculous! How could you do that with your own hands…!”

Although surprised, the man quickly came to his senses.

He is also an A-class ability user. Hydrochloric acid is only his auxiliary ability. His true skills are demonstrated in close combat, in individual combat.

‘That weird masked guy is going to be stopped here. I’m going to make sure he can’t play in the next match.’

Let’s break one arm. He ran towards me with a smile of conversion.

“ah.”

“hmm.”

“Oh, like that.”

The Coconut Family, who were watching from the tent, let out a short exclamation.

“Cheer up, sir!”

Cheon Do-woon lifted his foot along with Kim Na-ri’s cheer.

“Cheer up. Then you have to cheer up.”

Cheon Do-woon kicked with a little more force than he had initially planned.

“Oooh, the old man kicked me! I’m going flying! Aaah, I’m caught in a tornado!”

With Kim Na-ri’s relay, the man flew to where the tornado was raging. He was caught in the wind and dragged up.

“Ugh, ugh!”

I was hit by Cheon Do-woon and was out of my mind, and my body was spinning around.

From that point on, Cheon Do-woon started to move in earnest. Every time he passed, the team members around him levitated.

I was caught in a whirlwind and went up into the sky, and after reaching the top, I bounced and fell back down.

As their numbers grew, the sky became filled with people.

“Wow, it’s falling! A person is falling from the sky!”

A man descended from the sky.

“People are dying!”

It rained people.

Each team member repeated the sky tour without missing a single one.

“Stop it! Stop it now! We’ve lost!”

The AA team members shouted as they were sucked into the seventh tornado.

Meanwhile, the siblings’ guessing game continued.

“Correct answer! Winter!”

The siblings got the final answer right in a flash, and Cheon Do-woon finished the sabotage.

There was no one standing in the stadium except for the Coconut Family.

* * *

Where am I? Who am I?

The AA team, who had escaped the Infinite Whirlwind route, sat down with a blank look on their faces.

They were A-class Awakened. They were a top-class team made up of elites. The pride they had in that regard was shattered.

‘What the heck are those people? Who are they?’

They returned to the tent, supporting each other, and collapsed.

The bee costumes prepared to attract people’s attention were torn and tattered in the wind.

[The Coconut Family also takes the win in the second round!]

Cheon Do-woon’s team won with cheers.

Rep. Park Woo-jung shivered as he watched the scene outside the window.

“What the heck! Did the interference spell work properly?”

“Okay, it worked. You saw the earthquake and the tornado. I went over there to check.”

“Then why did those guys win!”

“That, that….”

Anyone can see that it is a skill. The secretary swallowed those words.

Rep. Park Woo-jung pressed his eyebrows together and spoke.

“From the third round onwards, there were matches between chimeras?”

“yes.”

“Change the rules of the game. Put a size limit on the chimeras that can participate.”

“That means….”

“Changed so that only small and medium-sized species under 1 meter can participate.”

The chimeras brought by the Coconut Family were all large.

The idea is to limit the size of the Chimera so that it cannot participate in the game.

“But, sir, if you suddenly change the rules, there will be backlash from each team.”

“There will be some backlash. But there were a lot of people who were carried out in the first and second rounds. If you say it’s for safety, they’ll accept it.”

Rep. Park Woo-jung smiled faintly.

“For teams that can’t field a Chimera, connect them with our company. Tell them we’ll loan them the Chimera they want for free.”

Anyway, all the chimeras with good abilities are left in front of the AA team.

It didn’t matter which Chimera other teams rented.

“That coconut or something team. It looks like they’re gritting their teeth to win. It’ll be interesting to see what kind of faces they’ll make if they can’t field the chimera they brought with them.”

Park Woo-jung smiled with a pleased face. On the other hand, the secretary sighed as she left the room.

‘This is really dirty. What is this happening at a festival where we gathered to have fun?’

How did I end up working under someone like that? He looked out the window.

Seeing the match-fixing like that, I felt like rooting for the Coconut Family.

‘I’m going to quit my job soon anyway. Should I just drop by and give him a heads up?’

Let’s give them a heads up so that the team can prepare, the secretary thought to herself as she went down the stairs.

* * *

After the second round, there was a break given.

A letter arrived at the Coconut Family’s tent.

“Some old man told me to give this to him.”

The letter, delivered through a bystander child, contained a warning from the secretary.

Rule change. Only species with a body height of 1 meter or less can participate in the Chimera.

The name is for safety. The reality is to keep the Coconut Family Team in check.

The letter contained brief advice from the secretary.

There was also advice written that the organizers should not borrow the chimera that they were lending out because the match was being rigged from above.

After reading the letter, Cheon Do-woon and his party had strange expressions on their faces.

“Who sent it?”

“Well, whoever sent it must have someone who doesn’t want our team to win.”

On the other hand, there were those who supported me by giving me this advice.

“What should I do? The third round is about to begin. If what’s written in that letter is true, we’ll have to change the players who are participating….”

The party looked back at the chimera.

The chimeras, huddled together, all boasted huge bodies.

While he was wondering what to do, Cheon Do-woon’s bag shook.

-Huh?

Dodak, who had woken up from a nap, stuck his head out of the bag.

Dodak, who shares Cheon Do-un’s eyesight and stamina. Dodak’s steed, Sasa.

Cheon Do-woon looked at them and smiled.

“Yeah. There were these guys.”

These are also unmissable powers. Cheon Do-woon raised his stool and leveled it with his eyes.

“Can you join the game?”

-Huh?

Dodaki looked at Cheon Do-un. When their eyes met, Dodaki’s eyes shook.

I can’t fully understand human speech yet.

But the helper’s eyes are deeply troubled. They are eyes full of sorrow.

Who has been causing my assistant so much worry and concern?

-Ouch, oh yeah!

Dodaki hit his chest with the base of his arm.

There was a deep, heart-pounding sound. It was a majestic sight, telling me to trust him.

“Really? Are you going out?”

-Whew!

“You just woke up. Can you do it?”

-Ouch, oh yeah!

Leave it to me, helper. Whatever your troubles are, I will solve them. That’s what Dodak shouted.

Cheon Do-woon smiled at his confident appearance.

“Okay. Then be careful not to tear the mask. It’s okay if it does, but it’ll be annoying because a lot of people will recognize you.”

-Whew!

Dodaki nodded.

Although his expression was not visible due to the mask, his eyes were more serious than anyone else’s.

Cheon Do-woon embraced Dodak and Sasa. He breathed mana into them to cheer them up as they had just woken up.

-Phew, phew…!

Ahh, this is the sour and sour helper’s mana.

The leaves of the Dodak tree turned green as if responding to the mana of Cheondoun.

Even the Sasa who didn’t eat mana got up on both legs as his body filled with energy.

-Whew!

-Beep!

Ready to take off.

The horse and the horseman who had finished doping with the mana of Cheondoun roared.
