The Hunter of the Other World Who Is Being Misunderstood - Chapter 347



Only Krnovel

Episode 347. Bunker

I’ve already saved about 100 times more money than when I used [Justitia].

From now on, all we have to do is have an honest conversation.

“Okay, so this is an extension of the story we started earlier. I’ll reveal it in advance, because I came here knowing full well that you ordered Enzo to do something.”

“… … !”

“So, while we’re at it, I’d like to hear a detailed explanation as to why you sent Beasts like Enzo to Korea.”

I asked Pixar’s shareholders.

For reference, this body’s right hand is holding the equipment it has been using for a long time, [Scream Stake].

This means that the culprit who caused the other party to lose patience and shout out the contract conditions is still alive and well.

[Teleportation] Items don’t work, all bodyguards fall down.

So what choices does that character have?

“Ugh.”

Andy Oliver came up with an answer quicker than expected.

“hmm?”

Toouk.

Exactly 14 seconds later, this object came out of his arms.

A cylindrical scroll with a completely black exterior.

‘What is this?’

The item was stored in an item box and was in fairly good condition even in the midst of the chaos.

But when I received the scroll directly from Andy Oliver, I understood.

Even if it had been directly swept away by the tsunami earlier, it probably would have been fine.

‘The surface is smooth and soft.’

It’s like a situation where the material feels like silicone.

But this tedious object, mostly used in the old days, actually seemed to contain a tremendous amount of information.

“That, that’s why I did what I did.”

“If you mean action, are you talking about invading Seoul?”

“Yes, yes.”

The opponent explains further.

Most of the characters written on this scroll artifact were in Hindi, so I could understand the meaning of the words just by using a commercial translator.

[41.40338-2.17403]

[78.45222-57.68550]

The only catch is the numbers preceding and following the Hindi sentences.

Andy Oliver says that when he accidentally acquired a particular scroll, he was completely unable to decipher the meaningless numbers attached to it.

But let’s be clear at this point: the greatest advantage of the species that dominates the Earth is intelligence.

The only problem was that I discovered magic too late.

The mammals here are quite advanced in science because of this.

‘Science is not a bad technology. The Internet in particular is a very good civilization!’

When pressed for an explanation, the other party said that they had used various technologies accumulated by mankind to eventually fully understand the numerical portion of the scroll.

“The front, the front part is coordinates. The back part is time.”

“coordinate?”

“It’s completely different from the azimuth notation we normally use… … .”

“That makes sense.”

“After comparing the gates that had already appeared over a period of several months with the rare creatures pointed to by the artifacts, the pattern was easily revealed.”

“hmm.”

“For reference, the information written on the first line there can be summarized as ‘A winged reptile will appear in Iguazu Falls on January 1st of the year XX.’ In other words, it predicted the appearance of a dragon’s nest.”

So isn’t this scroll really something incredible?

To sum up, the artifacts that Andy Oliver owned were media that spoke of three different types of information.

First, the location where the gate will appear.

Second. Description of the monsters or items that appear there.

Third, the exact time when the dungeon will be created.

So, this artifact can ultimately be interpreted like this.

“You probably already know that the company I work for used to be a game developer.”

The man who lost his glasses after being swept away by the current continued his sentence with difficulty, opening his bleary eyes.

“So, actually, from my perspective, this expression is quite familiar. I knew that scroll as a kind of update schedule… … .”

“what?”

“Or maybe a leaked patch note.”

oh my god.

What an update schedule!

First of all, I understand what it all means.

But this one, as a wizard who had lived for many years, brought to mind a less refined and, moreover, less stylish expression.

‘To put it simply, it’s a book of prophecy!’

Even if it is a forecast limited to just the appearance of the gate.

Anyway, this is something that can tell us what will happen tomorrow and the day after.

So I couldn’t help but be surprised.

“This is a seizure.”

“yes?”

“Confiscate it. And from the way you’re talking, I’m sure the entire contents of the scroll have been interpreted. When you put it in a nice way, prepare that and hand it over.”

“No, no. So… … .”

“Are those strange lumps of iron in your arms a storage device?”

“Oh no! No. That’s not it.”

No such item has ever been found in Alphauri.

Perhaps it is a new way for the centrifuges to work.

So, I became very interested in the scroll revealed by the man in front of me, and I ended up acquiring it.

‘If we get information, we can at least predict where an accident might occur.’

But then again, I think the name Gate Update Schedule isn’t so bad either.

“Ugh, ugh.”

Given the nature of electronic media, there is a good chance that copies of the information in this scroll exist.

That’s why Andy Oliver handed over the information quite easily, even though he looked reluctant.

Surprisingly, primitive tools appeared again here.

“paper?”

“This is a special paper made from dungeon materials.”

This is the content of the scroll that I was finally able to read after going through various processes.

?Gate to appear?

[…Month…Day Japan Poisonous Dragon’s Nest (Completed)]

[…Month…Day Republic of Korea Aging Stopping Medicine is included in the item table Boss (Completed)]

[…Month…Day Northern Mariana Islands Perfect Elixir]

I briefly skimmed through a few lines that stood out among them.

But at this point a problem arises.

“Wait, uh… As far as I know, you and Spectrum were on the same side. But how did the world’s richest people come together over something like this?”

If you have good information, it would be normal to try to monopolize it for yourself.

“And by the way, I already know that the gate that appeared in Seoul was related to the elixir of life. If you waste time trying to cover up that little thing, I might really hit you now. Not with a screaming stake, but with S-class strength.”

“… … !”

When this person opened his eyes wide and asked the question, Andy immediately blew it while sweating profusely.

It must have been a shock to see all my men swept away in one flood.

“… … I knew you had outstanding abilities as an emotional investigator. I never thought you, KIM, would be a psychic capable of figuring out [Soldeus]’s true identity… … .”

By the way, in context, Soldeus probably refers to the flower that appeared in the Korean dungeon.

Compared to the roughly made-up sunflower, the actual name feels old-fashioned.

But that’s not the issue right now.

“As you pointed out, I naturally knew about the appearance of the elixir of life in advance thanks to that scroll-shaped loot.”

“okay.”

“There are about four predictions of [Soldeus]’s appearance in that scroll… … .”

“… … !”

“In addition, there were separate tips on how to safely bloom the dungeon boss.”

This one changed to a posture with arms crossed.

“Can you understand what I’ve said so far?”

By the time this phrase came out of the other person’s translator, their gazes had moved for a moment.

“The Gate system is more honest than you might think, and so far at least, it has not intentionally deceived humanity.”

“Keep talking.”

“… So I completely trusted the artifact’s words that said I had to blow up the dungeon and change the boss’s item table to get the anti-aging potion… … ..”

“okay.”

“From the beginning, we formed a group with the plan to obtain all four of those medicines. If it’s information that’s hard to buy even with this kind of money, we can temporarily place the leader of a country under our command. That’s the answer.”

Only then does the truth come out.

Even though I’ve only heard this far, the outline of everything is organized in my head.

‘It was good to know that there was a forecast for the appearance of anti-aging drugs, but if something like that had become popular in a densely populated area like Seoul, it would have been difficult to put a stop to it at will.’

It’s so weird that this kind of situation was involved in the Beast incident.

‘No matter how expensive the item is, if there is a large number of casualties, no normal country will cooperate… … But if I had simply said that immortality was at stake, it would have only increased the number of new competitors. I understand.’

Okay. I understand it all now.

I’m now fully convinced of what a piece of shit Andy Oliver is.

“Eww!”

Immediately after.

A crying sound was heard in the damp bunker room.

“Thank you so much for explaining it to me in a more detailed way than I expected. You have quite a bit of insight and intelligence. However, I have to mention this part.”

“Wait, wait-!”

“The hunters in Seoul had a hard time because of that shit you ordered.”

I continued the conversation while stabbing the opponent with the [Scream Stake].

Oh, by the way, as I said before, the opponent is caught in a telekinesis.

I continued to inflict violence with a sallow, Western face due to ptosis.

Andy Oliver was caught and left helpless, forced to listen in silence to the reprimands that followed.

“Except for the top-tier ones like Jeong Ha-seong and Seo Esther, what would have happened if so many citizens had been injured? Huh?”

“Ugh, eww! Okay, wait. Just a minute… … .”

Immortality.

I also pursued something like that at one time.

Even after a long period of research, we have finally achieved it… … .

As an alpha who has forgotten the fear of growing old, I cannot just carelessly taboo that desire.

To be honest, I’m in a position where it’s hard to comment on their plans.

“Oh my, really.”

But if it’s just about putting your fists up, it’ll be okay.

“Go out and die. This thing.”

While I achieved my goal solely through pure research, that human was a criminal who almost killed countless members of the Homo sapiens species out of a single desire.

So, out of unforgiveness, I broke his collarbone.

It was a mammal bone that I didn’t like because it had a shape that stuck out and was in the way.

Can one person’s youth be worth countless lives?

Of course, the only answer to this question is ‘no’.

At least this archmage thinks so.

So I punished the mammals without hesitation.

-Snap!

But, for now, the plan to cleanse humanity has been abandoned, so it is too late to just destroy life because of hatred.

‘I suddenly miss my notebook.’

Why would an alien creature infiltrate this deep bunker?

Killing that human, Oliver or whatever, was actually quite possible from a distance.

So, of course, this person had another purpose in mind when he came here to try to talk to me.

So now it’s time to stop wasting time on that initial plan.

‘As you just revealed, there seem to be quite a few people in this world who are afraid of growing old. It just so happens that they all talk online.’

You need to get a definite answer from him in advance with the real curse item called [Knight’s Oath].

“Listen carefully from now on.”

I immediately made a proposal to Pixie’s shareholders.

“What did you say?”

Do not attempt to use the information in this scroll for evil purposes in the future.

In addition, this condition will be made to be observed by all others who have contributed to the Beast incident.

“The Fairy’s Promise was just a taste. The real important contracts are written on this parchment I just took out. Just in case, I’ve written it in English underneath, so check it out with your own eyes.”

The proposal written on the second line of the contract artifact, if explained in detail, was as follows:

Andy Oliver was to personally supervise the group leaders (let’s call them that for convenience) he knew from now on.

If those who received the information from the scroll try to commit a crime like the one in Seoul, I will use all my money and manpower to stop them.

Look carefully at all the gates that the prophecy points out.

If you can, go find that colleague yourself like I did and try to persuade him roughly.

“That’s the [Knight’s Oath]. Does that mean that if I fail to carry out the order, I die immediately?”

What followed were statements that were separate from ethics.

“Make your friends also mark the [Knight’s Oath] with the peace treaty written on it. Then the penalty will not be triggered.”

Times have changed now.

Is it really necessary to insist on hunting manually?
