Chapter 151 – Representative of the Republic of Korea (2).
It seemed like they were going to go to Dalian right away, but the situation suddenly developed in the direction of enjoying the prom.
“Eat once and enjoy.”
Han So-ra gave an interpretation within the possible range.
Kik-.
The iron door opened and servers rushed in.
A buffet was laid under the leadership of the head of the American Hunter Association.
It was a dish prepared by the association.
They are S-class hunters who never run out of money.
Really great chefs would have been mobilized to satisfy their taste buds.
‘Of course not me.’
My mouth is already salivating.
‘I also set up a lot of alcohol.’
If you’re an S-class hunter, you won’t get drunk no matter how much you drink.
To be precise, even if I was drunk, I was able to quickly detoxify the drunkenness.
Han So-ra raised a glass filled with champagne.
A passing server offered me a drink as well.
“Come on, shall we?”
“… Everyone is quick to adapt. It’s true that we eat and drink as if it were natural even when the game is open.”
“Because the words of the president of the association are true. As a hunter, if you want to earn money, you have to follow the president of the association. Growling at each other is something we can do later.”
“…….”
Is it important to earn a living?
Not.
At least it wasn’t that important to them.
All the S-class hunters gathered here are running towards conquering the ‘Tower’.
The hunters went crazy thinking of clearing the 100th floor of the ‘Tower’ and making a wish.
So-ra Han was talking back to me.
Those old people are holding the authority to attack the ‘Tower’ of international S-class hunters.
‘Looks like I can’t go up without permission.’
There will be lobbying on a national level.
If I were the head of state, I would want to raise the ceiling somehow to show my strength.
The power of hunters possessed by the state soon becomes the national defense power.
Superhumans called hunters were a military power that could be put in at any time in modern warfare.
In addition, the more strong hunters there are, the safer it is for the ‘top’ dungeon break.
From the state’s point of view, there was nothing to lose just because the tower had a high ceiling.
The reason why the eyes of the president of the association and the executives of the association are felt.
It was a structure in which the environment surrounding them could not but be arrogant.
“Is the whole world operating in a structure similar to that of Korea?”
“It is a minimal corporation. The order that controls the hunters so that they don’t behave arbitrarily. Hunters strong enough to attack the ceiling are the property of mankind. Even though the country they belong to is different, the planet they live on is the same. There is nothing good about losing it in vain.”
“Are S-class hunters following that?”
“Only the US and China are following. Except for the two countries competing for the lead, the permission of the association is meaningless for the rest of the countries.”
Numbers 1 and 2 are running in the distance.
There is no fool who dares to outdo it.
In a situation where you are falling behind in the leading competition, why?
Except for the United States and China, the rest of the world was conserving power.
The ceiling of the ‘tower’ is being raised slowly, but not too greedily.
First of all, I feel like I’m only checking the player who is chasing from behind.
“In order to save the hunters in their own country as much as possible, they are well controlled. The same goes for Korea and other major powers.”
No one wielded it recklessly just because he had the power of a superhuman.
Most of them followed the social order well.
Before awakening as a Hunter, he was just a human being.
Even after becoming a Hunter, he obeyed the law.
The hurdles are low, but few deliberately break them.
Under the control of each association, they attacked the ‘Tower’.
Mishaps may occur in the process, but that would be a category of mistakes that humans can make.
“Huey Reagan is looking this way.”
“Since before, they’ve been glaring at Mr. Kamen. What, did I do anything wrong?”
“I must first say that I am heterosexual. How do you say it in English?”
“I’m not gay.”
“…….”
It’s puzzling.
I wondered if that was the right expression or not.
Huey Reagan strides toward me.
The gaze was unusual.
“I’m not gay.”
“Cheup.”
I am not gay.
I’m not gay.
Hearing my murmur, Han So-ra burst into laughter.
“Conch.”
Huey Reagan greeted Han So-ra.
I pretended to know a conch while sending her burning eyes to me.
“Sora, who is the man with you? Are you a member of the Korean guild ‘Haetae’?”
“Yes, I am a member of the ‘Haetae’ guild.”
We talked to each other in English.
So I didn’t understand what you were saying.
“This man is not his real face. Do you know?”
“… I know. The mask this man is wearing hides his real face.”
“Even with the mask, I can definitely feel the power to hinder recognition. But it’s not the mask that’s important. Do you know what kind of ring he is wearing?”
“…….”
One conch tilted her head.
He turned his gaze and glanced at me, at my hand.
“I don’t know.”
“It’s understandable that you don’t know. Because ‘Loki’s Toy Ring’ completely hides its value, it is impossible to penetrate its value. Even if it’s an S-class Hunter.”
“I beg your pardon? ‘Loki’s toy ring,’ is this the one he’s wearing?”
Han So-ra’s eyes widened.
Unexpectedly, she looked back and forth between me and Huey Reagan with her startled look on her face.
“How can you recognize such equipment?”
“Because I am acquainted with the owner of Loki’s Toy Ring. Very close…. I have been with him since childhood, so I can feel his energy.”
“Ah.”
A conversation between Han So-ra and Huey Reagan.
One Sora let out her sigh as if she understood.
“Who is that man? Why is that man wearing Loki’s toy ring? Sora will have to properly explain this.”
Huey Reagan glared at Sora Han.
The life in her eyes was beyond her imagination.
I stood in front of Han So-ra.
Power was overflowing, so it was possible enough.
‘This is the power for non-virgins.’
‘Bicorn’s Protection’ has been activated.
It meant that Huey Reagan was genuinely angry.
I don’t know why.
“Sora-san, why are you fucking this bastard?”
As soon as I stood there protecting Sora Han, Huey Reagan’s face turned red.
It wasn’t because of shame.
He couldn’t control his anger and was emitting heat.
“It’s because of the ring Mr. Mask was wearing.”
“Ring?”
My ring is ‘Loki’s Toy Ring’.
Equipment borrowed from Petra Friedrich.
Huey Reagan is the ‘Guardian’ guild master….
“Aha.”
I quickly understood the situation.
“Didn’t you speak sooner?”
I pretended to be strong in my own way, but I had no intention of facing an international S-class hunter.
If there was a way to pass safely, it was right to choose that path.
I quickly removed the ring and handed it to Huey Reagan.
My appearance changed in an instant.
Camouflage comes off, white to Asian.
The hunters who had been peeping this way began to hum each other.
Now it was my turn to make excuses.
Where did you get ‘Loki’s Toy Ring’?
“I just picked it up on the way to America.”
I could never say that I borrowed it after peeing on Petra.
It was clear that no matter what I said, I wouldn’t believe it.
“She didn’t get her too?”
“… Yes?”
Han So-ra asked in a bleak voice.
Because of the creepy energy, I replied in a stupid tone without even realizing it.
Han So-ra sighed and explained to Huey Reagan.
“They said it was picked up from the floor when we met yesterday.”
“… When we met yesterday?”
Huey Reagan stares at me.
There was still life left in his eyes.
But it soon softened.
It is through persuasion.
“I understand what you mean. I will ask my friend.”
“I’m sorry. This guy is a bit off. Please don’t blindly criticize me badly. There would have been no malice.”
“… I’ll get it confirmed by my friend and think about it.”
Huey Reagan bowed his head to Han So-ra.
It was a greeting with the nuance of thanking you for helping me.
‘Don’t you do it for me?’
It was just eye candy.
It was absurd.
Huey Reagan is gone, and the ball is on.
I just ate a fucking buffet.
And not long after, Petra Friedrich showed up at the ballroom.
It was the look we knew.
A Caucasian woman with brown hair and freckles.
It looks normal compared to the original version.
As soon as Petra arrived, the association heads rose from their seats.
Petra put on her sullen face and headed to her place of honor.
Huey Reagan was also by her side.
* * *
After recovering Loki’s toy ring, Huey Reagan went straight to Petra Friedrich.
With the presidents waiting, she couldn’t afford to procrastinate.
“Petra, I’ve found the ring you lost.”
“…….”
Petra was at a loss for what to say.
Only after putting on her ring did she come to her senses and ask.
“Where?”
“The ballroom.”
“The ballroom?”
“Yeah, someone wrote it there.”
There’s no way Petra lost Loki’s toy ring.
She herself took out her ring and gave it to him.
Huey Reagan asked directly.
“Petra, why did you give the ring to that man?”
Petra has already made up an excuse.
“My online game friend.”
Huey Reagan didn’t believe Petra.
She has only known her for 15 years.
Even the slightest change in facial expression was noticeable.
“… Let’s go to the ballroom first. The presidents of the association are waiting for you.”
“Tsk, old people are annoying.”
Petra frowned and pulled her up.
“Who are you planning to kill? .”
