Chapter 252 – Chapter 252 – Modern Times

Chapter 252 – Modern

There was something to be done before dealing with the Hwashin Gong.

‘I have to raise the level first.’

The state of the body in the Hunter District is at its peak.

I wondered if I could handle the state of the hwagyeong.

‘Whoa..’

I took a deep breath and focused. I narrowed my eyes as I stared at a point in the air.

Sticky.

I felt a stabbing pain somewhere in my head. The energy floating in the air trembled minutely.

However, it was there. He squeezed his throbbing brow and let out a weary breath.

‘It’s harder than I thought…?’

I couldn’t move as if something was stuck.

In the martial arts district, the natural guardians who were handled freely became hardened as if they were stones.

‘Ah, that’s right.’

As I was thinking about it, something came to my mind. After killing the master of Hwagyeong, he did not check his karma.

– Retained Karma: 113,241

“Huh?”

The upbringing came out of nowhere. While I didn’t pay attention for a moment, karma accumulated enormously.

Out of curiosity, I looked through the message log. It was hard to find because there were so many small things, but I finally found it.

‘100,000 for killing one Hwagyeong?’

When I killed Myoilhae. I got nearly 100,000 karma in one shot.

‘Um…’

After thinking about it for a while, I understood it to some extent.

Generally, one million karma was required to reach Hwagyeong. Having killed such a master, 100,000 felt rather salty.

Still, I felt like I was getting paid.

I went straight to the store and bought [Superlative Body Enhancement].

Thump.

Along with the refreshing sound of bones, the surrounding energy was swirling.

Psseuk.

The powdered skin fell off. Clear skin without a single scar has sprouted.

‘Super Climax!’

With just one breath, the climax of the body jumped to a transcendence.

Whoo!

A wind of authority rose in the lightly stretched government.

‘Where···.’

I focused again, staring into the void.

The moment I put all my mind into imagining a sharp blade.

Perseok.

I felt joy with the sound of something being pierced. A thrill of pleasure traveled down my spine and spread throughout my body.

Ugh.

With the cool breeze that feels on your skin. A faint black smoke rose in the air.

“Whoa..”

As soon as the concentration was released, the sword spirit dispersed like smoke and disappeared.

My shoulders drooped as if I had been sprinting for an entire hour. Certainly, it was difficult to deal with natural jigi with a super-high body.

‘Still, I succeeded.’

I was breathing heavily, but I couldn’t stop laughing.

The achievements gained in other Earths were also valid here.

Furthermore···

There was also a black crystal that constantly produced poison in the inventory. You can continue to train your body here.

‘Train slowly.’

I took out my smartphone and called Lee Da-hye and Lee Da-som. I had a job for them to do.

*

Silver-haired and black-haired girls who looked exactly like each other approached.

“Did you call me?”

“Oh! Dasom looks good in a suit. Are you pretty?”
“Is that so?”

A young lady who has just become an adult but has a youthful face. Dasomi, her high school secretary, smiled awkwardly and hesitated.

She kept fiddling with the awkwardness of her suit skirt yet. She smiled lightly and looked to her side.

Lee Da-hye, the older sister of her sisters.

“…”

She blinked her eyes and smiled softly.

She had a bright expression on her face, but she felt something. She just seemed like she was going to pout every time she went over.

“Dahye also looks good in that skirt. Pretty.”
“Hehe.. Really?”

Something on her expression disappeared as if it had been washed away.

Seeing her innocent smile, she smiled.

“Huh. By the way, it’s Dahye. What happened to what I ordered last time?”

She had a job entrusted to her.

What I told you to help others with 1 billion per month. It was an experiment to turn overflowing money into karma.

“Ah! I have a report written, can I get it for you?”

“Oh, that’s fine.”

I checked the tablet she gave me. I muttered as I read the report that appeared on the screen.

“Hmm.. Investment in the development of prosthetic limbs? Is this going to be 500 million?”

500 million is a lot of money, but it was an extremely insufficient amount to develop combat equipment.

“Oh, the developers are a small team. They are students who have just graduated from graduate school, so I invested because the prototype was plausible.”

She nodded. She was the money entrusted to her, so she didn’t really want to meddle.

But, I saw something strange. I just couldn’t get past it.

“···Siwoo Foundation? What’s this?”

“Uh.. That, is that it?”

Dahye suddenly averted her gaze. She couldn’t meet her eyes like someone being stabbed.

Sweat dripping from her eyes, she said with an awkward smile.

“Yes, it is a foundation that helps people in need like me in the past.”
“···Okay?”

Something was suspicious, but it was passed for now.

She nodded her head involuntarily when she saw the following details.

“Oh.. Tuition support for aspiring hunters? This is fine.”

She went through the message log just in case. 10 to 100 small karma was still piling up.

Certainly, the amount of karma obtained was higher than the money spent.

“The tuition support is fine. Spend more money here.”
“Thank god. So, how much should I spend?”

“Since we’ve spent about 100 million now… Let’s spend another 2 billion here.”
“Yes···?

Anyway, the money was so overflowing that I couldn’t use it all. Money to go out to tax. I decided to write a lot.

Lee Da-hye, who had a blank expression, nodded her head. She moved on to the next turn.

“Dasom, you recognize only one building. It doesn’t matter where the location is, but please ask for a place that is spacious and has good air.”

“A building? Are you moving the clan house?”

She said, shaking her head slowly.

“No. I’m going to make a magic lab.”

***

One day.

Strange rumors began to circulate in the hunter-only community.

[Recently, the Salvation Guild, which has been promoted to a guild, has released the magical breathing method for free.]

“Teaching you magic breathing for free?”
“Nonsense.”

The Magical Breathing Method was so valuable that it was taught only to core personnel in large guilds.

Just revealing something like that.

Of course nobody believed it. Except for a few who went directly to the heart just in case.

“Is it really…?”

There were various reasons for visiting, but in the end it came down to two words.

Curiosity. Or it was desperation.

C-rank Hunter No Hyeong-gil. It was the same.

‘They teach me how to breathe magically?’

It was hard to believe at first, but the hesitation was short-lived. She moved to the source of the rumor.

Because one day I suddenly realized.

‘I’m here anyway.’

That the limit of one’s talent is C grade.

In order to cross the wall, the magical breathing method was required. However, it was almost impossible to learn how to breathe in a large guild.

Because of this, she gave up halfway through her life. Until I just heard the rumors.

‘Let’s go for now.’

*

A plain in Gangwon-do.

Noh Hyeong-gil, who arrived there, opened his mouth wide.

“What!”

I saw a huge building when it was built, but it was full of people. Everywhere I looked, it was full of crowds.

Foreigners seemed not to be bored, no matter how they came to know about it.

‘Shit.’

Everyone on the internet said it was unreliable… When I came in person, the atmosphere was completely different. Everyone was standing in line with stiff faces.

While looking at the endless line, I was dazed for a while. A dozen people were added to the end of the line.

“What..!”

It was not the time to stand still. I hurriedly came to my senses and ran towards the end of the line.

How much time has passed After waiting for almost half a day, I finally entered the building.

After a brief reception.

With the sound of high heels clattering. An employee in a suit approached and slightly bowed his head.

“No Hyung-gil? You can come this way.”
“Ah, yes.”

I followed her instructions and moved on. I followed as if possessed and was frightened.

‘It was an Awakener…?’

The employee walking ahead was a magic user. Besides, it wasn’t even weaker than that. I had no choice but to ask.

“Hey… Are you a member of the Salvation Guild?”

The female employee, who hesitated for a moment, smiled and said.

“I wish I did too, but… No. They are just temporary hired mercenaries.”

“Ah···. You see.”

Looking around, I saw the staff who were presumed to be Awoken.

There were dozens of people who looked stronger than him, a C-class hunter. Did you hire them all? It was difficult to imagine the financial power of the Salvation Guild.

She followed her down her long hallway. He felt as if he was walking down a hotel hallway as he looked at the numerous doors left and right.

“Um… Then is it true that you are teaching magical breathing here?”

“That’s right. Because more than 300 people have already been there… Slowly, rumors will spread. In the future, it will be more difficult to come this far.”

“Four or three hundred? Did you pass on that much?”

If you sprayed that much, it was close to impossible to recover the breathing method. It was hard to understand what the Salvation Guild was doing.

“Yes. Besides, I heard a rumor that it will be released on the Internet soon… Ah, we have arrived.”

Tiff.

When she puts her card key in, she opens a door marked Room 1137.

It was a completely white room from floor to ceiling. There was no furniture except for a chair in the center.

“Is this…?”

She stepped aside and said with a grin.

“If you go in and sit down, the magical breathing method will begin. Please note that the maximum usage time is three hours.”

After hesitating, I entered the room and immediately the door was closed.

The moment you sit in the center chair.

Pod.

The white room was dyed black. Sitting alone in a dark space, I felt like I was floating in the middle of space.

Gulp.

Amidst the sound of swallowing saliva somewhere.

[Conversion New Art v0.1.3 Magical Breathing Instruction begins.]

An emotionless mechanical sound was heard.
