Chapter 25 – Let’s Not Hope for Luck (2)
When I entered the guild with 100 points of regret behind me. Unexpectedly, there was no one in the guild other than me who went to work.
I looked around for a while, wondering if I might be able to get some points.
Unfortunately, the hunters in this time zone didn’t seem to have a lot of sexual desire.
Maybe it’s because most of the people are tired because it’s dawn like this.
When the body is tired, the libido decreases as much. It was only natural that most of the female hunters’ acquisition points would go down.
If you want to aim for the point at which the points obtained are the highest, the afternoon or evening after hunting would be the most advantageous.
Or, like Cha Yu-ri, do you wait for someone who has been determined and accumulated for a long time to visit you?
It wasn’t that I hadn’t heard of that for a while. Instead, he went straight to the sixth window to enter the dungeon.
Right now, rather than wasting time, figuring out how much power I had was the first priority.
“I’d like to apply for admission to Peregrine Meadow.”
“… You mean Peregrine Meadow?”
“Yes, Peregrine Meadow.”
When I heard the words Peregrine Meadow, the guide looked at my face once and answered with a careful shake of his head.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think we can permit you to enter Peregrine Meadow.”
“Yes? Isn’t Peregrine Grassland a C-class dungeon? I understand that there were no restrictions on admission at the tomb of the old tree last time.”
“Yes. In general, apprentice hunters are permitted to enter up to C-class dungeons, but male hunters are restricted from entering some dungeons, including Peregrine Meadow.”
“… Why?”
“Because flying monsters account for over 90% of the monsters that inhabit Peregrine Grassland. This is a rule set for the safety of male hunters.”
Roughly summed up, it meant not to attack flying monsters without the ability to awaken.
It’s not that there aren’t any male C-class hunters, though.
In the end, they fight purely by bumping into their own bodies without awakening ability.
Even if he didn’t have the Awakening ability, it was possible to just wield a sword and stab a spear.
After all, it was a long-distance attack method like a vacuum sword, or a javelin technique that accurately threw a spear into the air to catch monsters.
This was a skill that was virtually impossible without the Awakening ability. Rejecting the position was understandable in its own way.
Occasionally, there had to be male hunters who used bows or crossbows. C-rank monsters in this world couldn’t be defeated with that much power.
Fortunately, I didn’t go to the Hunter Training High School while playing. I already knew how to deal with this.
“Then I will write a memorandum of responsibility and go in.”
Memorandum of Responsibility.
No matter what kind of injury or loss of life there is in the dungeon. It means a memorandum stating that you will never raise a problem with the guild.
Of course, while using the dungeon, such content was of course tacitly agreed upon.
In this way, there are cases where there are restrictions due to internal regulations.
Usually when entering a dangerous or cautionary dungeon. Or, it was this memorandum of responsibility that was used when entering a dungeon with a higher level than one’s level.
“You said you would write a memorandum of responsibility… ?”
“That’s right.”
“…….”
Upon hearing my determination, the guide’s expression showed a little concern.
Perhaps this person, in his own way as a dungeon guide, has encountered many hunters who died or were injured in the dungeon.
In particular, many male hunters who dream of becoming a C-class hunter to break through their limits must have fallen prey to the C-class dungeon he manages.
Of course, because of the rules, I had to admit it inevitably. It must be that he wants to reduce the sacrifice as much as possible in the line he can prevent.
It’s not that I don’t understand his feelings.
“I will write a memorandum of responsibility for entering the dungeon. Then you can enter, right?”
It’s this person’s situation, and I just do what I have to do.
“… All right.”
Having said that, the receptionist took out a few sheets of paper and a pen from inside his window and handed it to me.
After accepting them, I signed each chapter without hesitation. It was immediately returned to the guide along with the union maintenance fund required for admission.
“I will check one last time. It’s a C-class dungeon, Peregrine Meadow, right?”
“That’s right.”
“I wish you luck.”
After saying hello to the guide who looked at me with a pitiful expression on the outside of the mobile warp, almost as if he was saying his last goodbye.
I entrusted my senses to the white light that enveloped my body.
⁎ ⁎ ⁎
“A C-class dungeon. Peregrine Meadow.”
What I saw as soon as I rode the mobile warp outside. A group of dozens of black-headed eagles were seen flying in groups.
This Peregrine Grassland is a grassland in name only, but most of the monsters inhabiting it are black eagles or their subspecies.
You’ll occasionally come across small monsters crawling on the ground, but this isn’t very meaningful information.
Because, every living creature that crawls on the ground will be eaten by that black-headed eagle.
‘Wheein!’
With the sound of cutting the wind, a black-headed eagle that appeared to be the vanguard approached me first.
Basically, it’s standard to attack in groups against female hunters who seem to have a level.
Coming down and hunting as a single entity like that is an action taken only when hunting low-level monsters unilaterally.
Besides, I had the greatsword in my subspace pocket right now. They probably look like a hunter who entered the wrong place unarmed.
This seems pretty shallow.
When the black-headed eagle, who pretended not to notice on purpose, rushed towards me, as close as possible.
I took out a greatsword from my subspace pocket and swung it straight at him.
“Huh!”
Seeing my weapon appear late, he hurriedly changed the direction of his wings. It was already not enough to get out of the reach of my long sword.
“Kiruuk… !”
The black-headed eagle became the victim of my geohap slash for the sin of belittling the opponent.
Roughly, there are about fourteen individuals left.
“Kiruuk!”
“Kick! Kiruuk!”
I wonder if the guys are embarrassed by the sudden death of a colleague. Suddenly, overhead, several black-headed vultures began to howl at me.
This time, I saw three monsters running towards me right away.
“Kirururuk!”
At first glance, it seems to attack in the same way as the first one.
Despite their weak durability, these monsters are C-class monsters, of course, for a reason.
The scary thing about these guys is that they ‘learn’ by watching the death of their colleagues.
“Huh!”
“Kiruruk!”
“Kick!”
Sensing that I was going to die before I could even swing my sword, the three of them threw themselves away at the same time.
The greatsword lost its direction and just cut through the air.
If I hadn’t had the Awakening ability, three monsters would have rushed to attack at the same time according to the gap created after the current action.
After that, the dozens of black-headed eagles flocking to him would eat his flesh everywhere and end up dying.
“Kick… ?!”
“Talent… !!”
“…….”
Unfortunately, the guys didn’t seem to have figured out that they should have avoided the attack, rather than simply increased their distance.
Three black vultures fell to the ground with my vacuum sword, which I had previously used to defeat the goblins.
He wriggled a little in pain from the deep cut, and then died.
All that remains is eleven.
“Cluck cluck cluck cluck cluck cluck cluck…….”
The guys who had already lost four of their comrades rushed at each other with their own cries as if they were angry.
There was no blind spot in the all-out attack of the guys who came in with a properly equipped formation.
For a monster, camaraderie was a characteristic of these black-headed vultures.
In this way, it is already a well-known pattern that if you kill more than a certain number of enemies, you will rush to take revenge all at once.
A pincer attack technique that rushes forward to kill the opponent no matter how many are sacrificed.
It wasn’t an easy attack to deal with, not to mention a normal male hunter, but also a normal B-class hunter.
For me now, it was just a perfect environment to use new technology.
“Hryaaaaa!!”
A technique that cuts circles around the body at once with a great sword. Bayonet Tempest.
A class C prosecutor can only learn right before becoming a class B prosecutor. It’s a powerful wide-area attack that’s almost like the symbol of a B-class swordsman.
In fact, it was safe to say that whether or not this technology could be used was the criterion that separated C-class from B-class.
Since I also reached level 4 of swordsmanship, of course I was able to use Bayonet Tempest, a B-class swordsmanship technique.
“Kiruuk?!”
“Cheating….”
“Ugh… Squeak….”
The remaining monsters made a body of corpses around my body without properly grasping the opponent’s capabilities.
Some quick-witted guys seem to have succeeded in getting themselves out of the blade. In the end, he met a more painful death by a vacuum sword.
“Kki, Kiruuk… !!”
Oh, is there one left?
Well, wherever you go, there will always be a little bit of a strange entity.
When other colleagues rushed at once. One black-headed eagle seemed to have noticed and joined a little later.
After confirming the power of my sword and my fallen comrades. Immediately, it flew back into the sky and began to move away.
Did he ‘learn’ that even if he ran into me alone, he would not be able to escape death? The boy spread his wings and flew high into the sky.
Without hesitation, I put my sword down on the floor. He spread his palms and chanted the 2nd circle fire magic.
“Fire Arrow!”
Although he was a little far away. Fortunately, like the 2nd circle fire magic, the straight line range was quite long.
“Kirurururuk!!”
The last black-headed eagle hit by the fiery arrow turned into a black-torped eagle and fell to the ground.
Even though it is a fire magic that can be used without a staff, it has this power.
It was definitely a wise choice to learn.
