When I Returned to Farming, National-level Big Juniors Flock - Chapter 61
Only Krnovel
61. On the way home
A truly disconcerting sight.
However, Oh Hyun-seong instinctively quickly stored the information surrounding him in his head.
Corpses strewn everywhere.
But judging by their attire, they were not government hunters.
‘Are they terrorists? Then why are they here?’
A dark aura rippled behind the dead corpses.
He realized that it was a trace of the power that Yun Seol-ha had used, and he deduced that she had brought them in.
That’s the only way so many people could infiltrate a building without anyone noticing.
But then why did she let the terrorists in, and if so, why did she kill them?
“It was my senior, thank goodness.”
“What are you doing here?”
“What are you doing…”
Yun Seol-ha staggered back and looked down at her sword.
She brushed away the blade that was covered in blood and looked at Oh Hyeon-seong.
“Let’s move, senior. They’ve already caught up to us.”
“What are you talking about?”
“We don’t have time for this. The target is fleeing.”
Yun Seol-ha staggered out of the bathroom.
But Oh Hyeon-seong blocked her path.
“Target? What do you mean?”
“You came all the way here without hearing anything?”
“okay.”
“I’ll explain later, so let’s just get moving for now…”
Thud!
Oh Hyun-seong stretched out his arm to stop her.
They faced each other right in front of each other and stared into each other’s eyes.
“How did you come back alive?”
“You came back alive… What the…”
Yun Seol-ha looked at him as if she didn’t understand English.
Her face, which had been gradually frowning, became tinged with embarrassment, and she took a step back from him as if confused.
But at that moment, a huge explosion engulfed the building.
***
Acrid smoke and ear-piercing tinnitus.
Oh Hyun-seong, who broke through the debris of the collapsed ceiling and walls, spat out the dust that filled his mouth.
“Damn…! They’re like crazy terrorists.”
Coming out of the collapsed bathroom, he saw the first floor lobby in shambles.
A series of sudden explosions occurred, and not only this area, but the lower floors of the building were completely damaged.
Fortunately, the building did not collapse, but there were many injured people here and there.
But I don’t think they came here just to play with fireworks.
‘Their goal is to assassinate the president. But with the bodyguards attached, an explosion of this magnitude is not enough to assassinate them. Rather, they’re probably just trying to attract attention by making a lot of noise, just to deceive people.’
Oh Hyun-seong hurried out of the building.
Even when I was on the front lines in the past, I felt that humans were always just as much of a nuisance as monsters.
If you’re a guy who moves calculatedly, you can just look one or two steps ahead, but guys who act with such madness are easily defying prediction.
At the same time as the explosion, Yun Seol-ha also disappeared.
She and IAE are a combination that has no connection or compatibility, but there was something strange about her appearance just now.
At least it wasn’t a coincidence that they appeared together.
‘Whatever it is, we have to find it quickly now.’
Oh Hyun-seong followed her trail as she disappeared with Melts.
***
After the sudden suspension of talks.
The French leader was leaving the location by car.
But as they were getting out, the vehicles suddenly fell down due to a sudden ground subsidence.
A trap set by someone with abilities, not a natural phenomenon.
Fortunately, the President was protected from the fall by security personnel, and the vehicles were mangled badly, but what happened next?
Terrorists who had set traps began to attack from all directions.
Of course, even in the midst of all this, the bodyguards counterattacked and succeeded in subduing all the terrorists who had set the trap.
But the situation was completely turned upside down with the appearance of just one person.
“Ugh…ugh!”
Kuung!
The bodyguard, who had been held unconscious by the neck, fell to the ground.
Not only that, but all the other bodyguards were lying unconscious.
All of this happened in an instant, in a matter of minutes.
“Ha… haha… you’re a monster after all.”
The slumped man muttered.
He, a member of the IAE organization, looked up at her with eyes full of awe.
“How can such a superior being be beneath the likes of an unawakened being…”
Crunch!
The man’s body was cut in half.
He was very cleanly defeated by the skill that he was so in awe of.
But the man who fell backwards was still smiling and writhing even as he was dying.
Thud thud.
Yun Seol-ha approached the crumpled car in the corner.
Although the vehicle was specially built to withstand a direct hit from a magic bullet, she simply cut open the vehicle’s door and ripped it off.
Inside, there was the French president who had fainted.
She raised her sword without saying a word and brought the blade to his neck.
“stop!”
Yun Seol-ha stopped in her tracks at the sudden shout.
When I turned around, Oh Hyeon-seong was standing there, having hurriedly gotten off.
“If you kill that guy, you’re finished too.”
“What are you talking about, senpai? It’s our mission. We should finish it quickly and go back.”
She looked around anxiously and said.
In reality, it was a very quiet space, but her ears were filled with a thumping sound.
The explosions, screams, and even the cries of monsters that always filled the front lines.
“The monsters will come soon. They’ll start bombing the nest, so if you don’t get back quickly, you might get torn to pieces, haha.”
‘As expected, he’s not in his right mind.’
Yun Seol-ha’s wide-eyed eyes shake anxiously.
She had a rough, unrefined vibe, and she was already half-devoured by psychosis.
As a hunter, you have already reached a point where you have no hope of recovery.
‘But… it’s definitely different from that time in the past.’
In the past, she was exposed to the battlefield without any care and became completely consumed by psychosis.
Since there was not even a shred of reason left, it was impossible to even recognize the other person.
But now it’s different.
It was possible to have a conversation, albeit an unstable one, and he didn’t attack me out of the blue, remembering me.
‘… then there is hope.’
It’s different from the past.
Her condition, and the abilities given to her.
Tsk tsk tsk!
Yun Seol-ha, who was about to swing her sword, suddenly stepped back.
The ice blocks stopped her from killing her target.
“Senior… What are you doing?”
“I don’t know what’s been happening to you, but just wait a moment. I’ll get you back.”
Oh Hyeon-seong took up the sword.
If we continue to cause trouble here, the situation will get out of control.
Since it involves the heads of other countries, it is not an issue that can be resolved through personal connections.
We have no choice but to use slightly drastic methods.
“Ugh… Huh…”
She clutched her head, breathing heavily.
The constant whispers in my head are getting louder.
The illusion floats before your eyes, the pungent scent of blood is in your scent, and the screams of those being trampled are heard.
In the dark pit, she was in the hellish battlefield of the past, and the figure of Oh Hyeon-seong, who had been standing in front of her just a moment ago, had disappeared without a trace.
Only, a terrible monster that had eaten her colleagues stood before her.
“This level of living… It’s been a long time.”
Just seeing him made his skin tingle, and Oh Hyun-seong’s mouth twisted with the professional’s murderous intent.
Even among the agents, Yun Seol-ha, who specialized in interpersonal combat, was the undisputed strongest assassin within the special forces.
Wow!
She, who had disappeared in an instant, appeared right in front of my nose.
The moment the swords clashed violently, the dagger in her other hand was already aiming for Oh Hyeon-seong’s neck.
The moment Oh Hyun-seong, who had tilted his head back, tried to step out of the reach.
The dagger, like a saw blade, that had been pointed at his neck suddenly changed direction, snatched the sword, and shattered the blade.
Kkwaduk!
‘crazy…!’
The sword I took from the mercenary last time was torn apart in a horrible way.
I was a bit worried from the beginning, but I didn’t think it would be destroyed so easily.
I had in mind the Sword Breaker among her weapons, but I didn’t know that even with all the technique, it would be possible to easily tear down the extremely durable Hunter equipment.
Originally, when the two of them sparred, they only blocked each other’s swords.
‘Even though I tried to twist it and respond, it was torn off with force. As expected, it’s really outrageous.’
When psychosis manifests, the runaway’s physical abilities become dramatically stronger at the cost of losing his or her reason.
The body, which had been weakened by the mental illness that was a precursor to the disease, suddenly changed as if it had become a different person.
The power and speed with which she wields it now are far superior to the original Yun Seol-ha.
It’s not for nothing that one side of the Chinese front in the past was devastated by her one wild run.
Pfft!
He aimed for Oh Hyeon-seong’s weak spot, who was defenseless because she had lost her sword, but at that moment, a huge fist appeared and repelled her.
Meltz, who had been by his side, suddenly transformed into a giant golem and radiated a presence.
Unlike other spirits, this spirit of the earth was capable of directly projecting physical force with its true form.
Yun Seol-ha’s figure, which had been staggering for a moment, disappeared like a mirage in the darkness.
Visual information meant nothing to her.
Of course, that doesn’t mean that classic detection was completely impossible.
But Oh Hyun-seong could clearly see her movements.
Even if all traces are erased, the traces of the earth that Meltz reads cannot be erased.
Wow!
When the sword aimed perfectly from behind was easily blocked by Multz’s arm, Yun Seol-ha reacted with a start.
He was confused when his numbers didn’t work at all.
“If we didn’t know each other, we probably would have had a hard time. But unfortunately, we’ve sparred with each other thousands of times.”
Oh Hyeon-seong knows Yoon Seol-ha.
Yun Seol-ha also knew Oh Hyeon-seong.
We’ve been on countless missions together, working together in sync, and having countless sparring matches.
It is impossible for us not to know each other’s abilities.
Even the form in which he holds the sword and the small habits of his footsteps are vivid.
But Yun Seol-ha didn’t know about him now.
This means that to Oh Hyun-seong, it is not the stronger Yoon Seol-ha who has become more violent, but the usual Yoon Seol-ha who is much more threatening.
Even if it was just a shallow trick that would have been easily destroyed if it had been the same as before, she was now unable to deal with the ‘spirits’, which were variables she was seeing for the first time.
Kwaaaaang!
Yun Seol-ha breaks one of the golem’s large arms and charges straight at it.
Oh Hyun-seong let out a short sigh and closed his eyes.
“I’m already retired, so what kind of hardship is this?”
For him, who had already turned his back on the industry, it didn’t matter what happened in the secular world.
To be honest, even if the presidents were blown up by terrorists right now, his life wouldn’t change much.
The price of strawberries supplied to department stores may fluctuate a bit.
But still, he willingly stepped forward.
The reason is very simple and clear: Yun Seol-ha was his junior.
Colleagues who shared life and death with us in countless situations.
Even though I was dragged away by the country from a time when I didn’t know what was cool and experienced situations where I risked my life, in the end, it was these guys who stayed by my side.
He had saved Yun Seol-ha’s life several times, and he had also been indebted to her for his life several times.
So, this time, we just add one more light.
Because even though we sometimes growled and sometimes became distant, in the end we were old comrades who shared something thicker than blood.
“Hey, Junior Yoon.”
As the distance between the two grew closer, there was a flash of light.
An intense beam of light created by Alyssa, the spirit of light.
They were momentarily blinded, and he was the only one who could move in that moment.
“Let’s go home now.”
Kwaaaaang!
Oh Hyun-seong dug in and struck with all his might.
