Chapter 468 A New Beginning (1)
Awakening to a new world.
It was an experience I couldn’t get used to.
As soon as I opened my eyes, as if I had checked a new world as Roman Dmitri for the first time, a lot of information was visually sucked in.
The dull sky and the acrid smell of something burning. When I raised my head and looked around, I saw the unfamiliar shape of high-rise buildings, half collapsed, forming a gruesome sight.
It was in ruins.
uninhabited land.
Despite the lack of information about the new world, it was not difficult to anticipate that much of the truth.
‘The world I will live in anew.’
I chose to breathe.
It was different from my previous life.
When Roman Dmitri’s life began in Baek Joong-hyeok, there was a person named Hans who could explain the memories and situations imprinted on his body.
Not now. A life where you have to learn everything yourself. Before taking any action, Roman Dmitri checked his physical condition with a calm face.
‘At the border of dimensions, I forgot the concept of time.
In order to fight against the unknown, I must completely control myself before grasping external information. All problems are after that.’
through.
Raised mana.
He took several breaths and spread mana all over his body.
It was not a long time.
It was a sensitive area that beginners would not even dare to try, but Roman Dmitri checked the entire body in an instant. There was nothing in particular to be a problem.
Baek Joong-hyeok’s soul existed as Roman Dmitri’s body in the new world, and the same power as before crossing the dimension revealed a huge presence in Danjeon.
It was the same.
It is rather unfortunate that the sword he was using was lost while crossing the dimensional boundary.
The fact that there are no weapons.
I didn’t mean risk.
In fact, in the blink of an eye, Roman Dmitri finished all preparations to face the outside world.
‘Life is approaching.’
Bubbly.
Pretend to be a bipedal creature.
There was no hostility.
If he had intended to attack himself, he would have hidden his steps, but Roman Dmitri calmly waited for the opponent’s action.
Even after noticing the presence, it took more than a minute for the presence to reveal itself.
It wasn’t that the opponent intentionally slowed down, but Roman Dmitri noticed the opponent’s presence from a distance of more than a minute.
A presence that appeared before long.
It was a middle-aged man.
A man with a wild beard and a greatsword saw Roman Dmitri and made a noise.
“#*$*$&*#&$#$.”
couldn’t hear
It was a difference from the previous life.
The memory imprinted on Roman Dmitri’s body immediately solved the language problem, but in this world language was the first thing that caught his ankle.
The man talked for a while. He pounded his chest as if he was frustrated, then sighed as he looked at him calmly, then rummaged for something in his bosom.
The possibility of an attack was not ruled out.
No matter how the opponent attacks from this distance, Roman Dmitry will blow his head before the opponent.
It was then.
He took out a strange-looking piece of paper.
Then, as if to show off, I tore it apart.
Fire!
light that rises violently.
Then, when the man opened his mouth, the words he could not understand at all took the form of sentences.
“Why on earth are ordinary people in unprotected areas? It is dangerous here.”
* * *
In-house.
Kang Min-ho felt frustrated.
Discovering Roman Dmitry was by accident.
I officially got a permit and went hunting, but in the area where monsters appear, a person presumed to be a normal person was looking around blankly.
At first, I thought it might be a monster in human form. So he showed a wary reaction, but when he used the mana meter, there was no special reaction.
[Unable to measure]
The limit of the mana meter is up to C grade.
Then it was clear to the general public.
I let go of my vigilance and approached with a willingness to help, and I could see the other person’s appearance in detail.
‘foreigner?’
black hair.
But exotic looks.
I couldn’t imagine being Korean.
If so, the question could only grow.
Since the world has changed in chaos, Korea has not been a country favored by foreigners.
Of course, beings with the ability to protect themselves were a separate issue, but ordinary people did not come to Korea even for safety reasons.
Safety ratings by country. Among them, it was the reality of Korea, which was rated lower.
actually.
In my mind, I didn’t want to help.
If it weren’t for his promise to himself to become a father he would not be ashamed of for his one and only daughter, Kang Min-ho would have ignored Roman Dmitri and left the road.
In any case, we finally talked. Even though he used crude English words, he couldn’t understand at all, so he used the magic scroll with tears in his eyes.
‘How much does this cost?’
A preparedness measure in case you meet a foreign hunter.
It was a translation magic.
When the scroll was activated, a bright light arose and a link of language was created.
“Why on earth are ordinary people in unprotected areas? It is dangerous here.”
Kang Min-ho’s words.
Roman Dmitry looked at his opponent in silence.
Unprotected area hazard to the public.
Several keywords noticed that this is not a place where humans live, and that Kang Min-ho’s body, which uses mana, is in a similar context to his previous life.
Of course, the development of culture will be different. However, the method of expressing power based on mana seemed to have its own system in this world as well.
no reply.
As for Kang Min-ho, he said again that he was frustrated.
“I don’t know why I got lost here, but if I delay like this, I’ll be attacked by monsters. The safety of non-Hunters cannot be guaranteed. so… .”
“A monster means that creature that is approaching right now.”
“yes? A creature?!”
Kang Min-ho was startled.
it’s a living thing
Feeling nothing at all, Kang Min-ho hurriedly raised his sword and looked around.
It was strange.
No creature was visible anywhere within sight, and I raised the mana just in case, but the movement of the creature was not identified.
In an instant, I felt like I was losing steam. What kind of nonsense is this?
It was pathetic to see himself being wary of listening to a person who was only a normal person, who might be a psychopath.
I turned my head.
The moment he was about to say something again, Kang Min-ho felt goosebumps rising from the nape of his neck.
‘Living?’
sure
As soon as I felt a sense of death, I raised my greatsword and swung it with all my might at the unknown creature approaching this way.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
It was a violent impulse.
Kang Min-ho, who gritted his teeth and let go of the shock, confirmed the existence of life as the dust cloud settled.
Krrrrrr.
‘A soldier ant?’
Ant’s body.
Hard jaws and sharp teeth.
sure
A D-class monster that was too difficult for him, who was classified as a normal hunter, was glaring at him.
* * *
The rating system is simple.
When you defeat a monster of that grade, you can secure that grade, but a normal hunter means someone who has dealt with a monster of E grade.
In a word, Class D is a tough opponent for Kang Min-ho, an ordinary hunter.
It was an entity to be absolutely avoided while choosing this hunting ground, and it was planned to run away immediately if it met a soldier ant.
however.
‘Damn it.’
behind yourself.
There were common people.
Kang Min-ho couldn’t bear to run away because he thought that if he retreated, ordinary people might be in danger.
‘It’s a real beggar situation.’
Krrrrrr.
in front of you.
A soldier ant broke through the ground and showed its ferocious teeth.
I don’t know how ordinary people noticed the existence of soldier ants, but I didn’t have time to think about that.
I had to choose. Either run away or fight the soldier ant head-on.
‘I was thinking of going through the D-class screening anyway. Let’s think of it as practicing in real combat.’
closely.
I gripped my sword tightly.
I couldn’t abandon people.
That moment when you’ve finished worrying so much.
Kyaaak.
tat tat tat.
The soldier ant came running.
Unlike the huge body, it was fast, and its sharp teeth showed the momentum to tear human flesh to pieces.
Kang Min-ho rushed towards the soldier ant. As soon as they got close enough to feel their breath, they instantly released mana.
‘Dash.’
Papapat.
Dig into the opponent’s arms.
In a situation where each other’s bodies were intertwined, they swung their great swords from bottom to top.
Caang-
‘Oh my God.’
It was tight.
The repulsive force kicked her hands out, and she hurriedly turned her body to the attack swinging her huge forepaws. A sharp pain arose in his forearm.
The cut was shallow and blood splattered, but this kind of wound was not important at all.
‘If I lose momentum, it’s over.’
if pushed back.
Because ordinary people can get caught up in battle, Kang Min-ho did not back down and exchanged battles with the soldier ants.
Caang!
Kakakakakang!
My body shook greatly.
It was difficult to face the soldier ant’s strength from the front, and I tried to hold on somehow, but I couldn’t stop it from being pushed back.
But even in the midst of that, Kang Min-ho’s eyes did not lose his composure. Unlike others, he belatedly set foot in the world of hunters.
To him, who had been building his skills by defeating monsters, he was so used to situations like this that he had experienced many times.
for him.
There was a purpose.
To build up your skills as a hunter and enter a shelter that is only allowed to a special few, such as your only daughter.
couldn’t die
There were wounds on his body, but Kang Min-ho aimed for a gap until the end.
Kyaaak.
Quad de de de de deuc.
Soldier ants overturned the ground and charged.
fleeting moment.
Kang Min-ho’s eyes changed.
‘Strike (??).’
A red aura that rises vigorously.
The moment the soldier ant’s forepaw cut through his chest, Kang Min-ho’s greatsword cut off his head.
sudden.
Kwadeuk.
The head is broken.
However, it seems that he did not die with that alone, but the soldier ant pushed his face in and tried to tear Kang Min-ho’s body apart.
I was holding on to my mind like a madman. He swung his sword several times.
Watching the soldier ant’s head crush each time the sword exploded, he swung it like crazy until the opponent’s movement stopped.
baek!
Bak bak bak!
borderline of life.
risked their lives
When the soldier ant’s head approached, the soldier ant’s huge body lost its strength and collapsed.
cooong.
Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrating
“Ha-ha-ha-ha.”
won
Kang Min-ho let out a rough breath and frowned in pain to the extent that he couldn’t even enjoy the fact that he had won. It was a very dangerous fight.
If you hadn’t prepared for the D-class screening in the meantime. If you hadn’t boldly attacked the opponent’s loophole, it would have been you, not the soldier ant, who fell to the ground.
sure thing.
Survived.
Kang Min-ho hurriedly rummaged through his arms and poured a healing potion into the wound in preparation for such an event.
Chi profit.
“It’s not over yet.”
from behind.
The voice of the common people was heard.
I didn’t understand for a moment.
it’s not over yet
But at that time, a hopeless reality that Kang Min-ho could not handle unfolded.
kyaaak!
Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
A being that appeared as the ground stirred.
They were soldier ants that formed a colony.
* * *
A group of soldier ants.
It felt like the accident had stopped.
Although this is an area frequented by soldier ants, their habitat is far away from here.
So, it is a known hunting ground where 1 or 2 animals that have fallen from the herd are known to be dangerous.
I chose this place with the intention of taking that level of risk, but I had never heard of a group appearing at all.
‘… It’s Mina.’
only daughter.
she remembered
If her daughter, who has yet to reach adulthood, is left alone, how can she live in this harsh world?
could never die I shouldn’t have died like this.
It was virtually impossible to escape while wounded, so Kang Min-ho got up with his teeth gritting, determined to deal with all the soldier ants.
I knew it was an impossible situation.
but.
I couldn’t give up.
an imminent situation.
As I watched the group of soldier ants approaching, I heard the voice of an ordinary person once again.
“From now on, I will suggest you one thing.”
tat tat.
Quadd deuk.
Soldier ants rushed in.
Several soldier ants rushing from all sides showed intense murderous intentions, as if they were going to tear Kang Min-ho to pieces.
public.
Roman Dmitry continued:
“Those monsters are not the end of what they see. I’ll deal with them all and take you to a safe place. There is only one condition. one month. Help me adapt to this place for a month.”
“What is that… .”
It was an incomprehensible statement.
How do you deal with a bunch of soldier ants when you can’t even feel mana?
And what does adaptation mean?
“Choose.”
Kang Min-ho had no time to think deeply about the question.
It was on the brink.
I had to grab at least a straw to survive.
Soldier ants approaching right in front of you.
Minho Kang urgently shouted.
“Okay! I’ll do anything to help you survive here!”
as soon as the words are finished.
Passing by Kang Min-ho, who was struggling, Roman Dmitri moved towards the soldier ants alone.
“The deal has been concluded.”
new life.
From now on, it was my turn to live a new life.
