Chapter 20 – S-Class Hunter Seulbi Kim (20)

“Seonggi-san, that’s…”

Seulbi Kim looked at my hand, which was still shining, in surprise.

I also looked down at my hands.

This is what it felt like to use a skill.
Of course, this was a skill I didn’t have before.

A message suddenly popped into his head, telling him that this ability had just been created.

How could this be possible?
There was only one answer.

It must have been from Seulbi Kim.

The only ability I had, ‘Feeling without reason’, was greatly upgraded after 10 years yesterday.
As a result, I learned that we can promote mutual growth while staying with Seulbi Kim.

And I just realized that the direction isn’t just about gaining experience points.

Seulbi Kim raised her hand with her happy face.
She manifested her mana.

Then, a similar ability to the one triggered in my hand was activated in her hand as well.
Of course, the light’s anticipation and the intensity of mana couldn’t even compare to mine.

“Seonggi-san, you have the same ability as me.”

She misunderstood something
I didn’t really have anything to say, so I just evaded it.

“Yes. I didn’t even know I had this ability.”

‘Hand-slicing’.

This was an ability to use with bare hands.
If I had known I would have this ability, I would not have bought the sword and shield.

Of course, I never expected that things would turn out this way.

The ability I acquired was not limited to ‘slashing the blade’.
You said that your agility has also increased.

“It’s good that you came to the dungeon.”

Seulbi Kim said with a happy face.

It was true.
If I hadn’t come to the dungeon, and if I hadn’t come with Seulbi Kim, then I wouldn’t have known about the expansiveness of the ‘Like for no reason’ ability.

“Good! Let’s go down to the lowest floor while we entered!”

This dungeon consisted of three floors.
So the bottom floor was two more floors down.

However, since most of the D-class dungeons were D-class or lower hunters, it was rare to clear all dungeons in one day.
This is because it takes a lot of time and is risky.

Needless to say, this place was like a playground for S-class hunters.

With Seulbi Kim, clearing all D-class dungeons in one day wouldn’t be too difficult.

“Maybe?”

Seulbi Kim stretched out her hand.
Then she sucked the crystal stones of the two zombie mice that had just died into her palm.

“Uh?”

I was surprised, she explained.

“Oh, you didn’t know. Hunters can use their mana to pull crystal stones. With that, you can save time to pick up crystal stones.”

Seulbi Kim said in a natural tone.

However, I thought that not all Hunters would be able to demonstrate this ability.
Since he’s an S-class hunter, he must be able to pull crystal stones at will.

And until now, Seulbi Kim would have only hunted with S-class hunters like herself.

“Yeah…”

Since her common sense and mine were different, she didn’t have to have unnecessary conversations.

Seulbi Kim gave me both of the crystal stones that came into her hand.

In a normal case, I would have asked why you gave all this to me, but it was a meaningless question.
Seulbi Kim has crystal stones from monsters in D-class dungeons, but it must have been mana.

But I’m different.
It would be a lot of money for me if I cleared all of this dungeon today and came out with the crystal stone.

She put the Crystal Stones she received from Kim Seul-bi into her inventory and continued walking with her.

“Kiik! Kiik!”
“Kyaaaaagh!”

Naturally, the monsters got stronger as they went deeper into the dungeon.
At first, only zombie rats appeared, but later, zombie dogs and zombie humans also started appearing.

But in conclusion, they were no match for us.
To be more precise, he could never be Kim Seul-bi’s opponent.

She seemed to know why, at first, Seulbi Kim said that this dungeon only had zombie-type monsters, saying that it was nonsense.
As the hunt continued, Kim Seul-bi realized that the essence of her ability was in her lightning-like body movements.

It moves at an incredibly fast speed and cuts off monsters like tofu with a powerful blade slash.

There were times when there were so many monsters that I wondered if this was a bit dangerous, but even then, Kim Seul-bi finished the situation in one second.

At first, I just watched her perform, but later, I didn’t want her to be like this, so I hunted monsters with my mind.

I also slashed the monster with quick movements.
Since it was her ability obtained from Seulbi Kim, the shape of her ability was bound to be the same.

Seeing the amount I was doing, Seulbi Kim was delighted.

“I guess we’re really meant to be together!”

Having said that, what more can I say?

Haha! I will.”

As the hunt continued, I felt I was getting stronger and stronger.
Her ability, which Seulbi Kim used, was basically a fast-moving, followed by a bladed slash.

In a dungeon of this level, you probably don’t need to show any more ability than that.
I thought that this wasn’t all she had.

If she used a different skill, she wondered if I could get it by copying it too, but she didn’t even bother to do so.
To be honest, it was my first time entering the dungeon, and it could be said that it was a great achievement just to acquire high agility and cutting skills that did not match the grade.

Since it was an ability obtained from an S-class hunter, it was too much for me just to imitate it.

Shhh-

Grasp!

“Keep it off!!”

In the deepest part of the dungeon, a monster five times larger than a normal zombie appeared.
I was a little scared, wondering if the owner of the dungeon, whom I had only heard about, had finally appeared.

After killing him easily, I sucked up the thick crystal stone that came out of him and gave it to me.

“It’s over sooner than I thought.”

It really was.
It took less than three hours to clear all the dungeons with Seulbi Kim.

On average, it took an hour to clear each floor.

From what I saw while working at the Dungeon Management Office, Hunters usually came here in groups.
And they attacked one floor per day on average.

It took about half a day to do so.

In less than half of that time, Kim Seul-bi and I finished clearing all three floors.

I wasn’t in too much of a hurry.
It was literally the same pace as taking a walk.

However, Seulbi Kim’s movement itself is basically very fast, so there was an aspect that the attack time was shortened.

There were times when I wanted her to move too fast, but I was able to catch up with her without too much difficulty.
My agility was also going up fast as she hunted her with her.

To be honest, I did very little in this dungeon.
Nevertheless, just by being with Seulbi Kim, she has grown greatly.

The ‘Like for no reason’, which I thought was useless for the past 10 years, was suddenly considered a fraudulent ability.
Seeing that the ability was greatly expanded at once yesterday, there was no law against further development in the future.

“Shall we go?”

Despite hunting so many monsters, Seulbi Kim’s equipment was barely soiled.
It was unbelievable compared to what I had seen of hunters coming out of dungeon raids in a messy state.

Of course, my body was also clean.
Unlike Kim Seul-bi, she didn’t do much, so it was just that she didn’t have monster blood on her body.

Together we stood in front of the Hearthstone.

Hearthstones were stones, walls, or rocks with special spells engraved throughout the dungeon.

Hunters who came out through that place were able to continue the attack from the point they attacked the last time they came to the dungeon the next time.
I had only heard that something like this was in the dungeon, but it was the first time I had actually seen it.

Seulbi Kim crossed my arms and put her hand on the Hearthstone, and within a second we came back to the dungeon entrance.

“How was it?”

She asked me how I felt about clearing her first dungeon.

“It wasn’t as difficult as I thought. She was with Seulbi.”
“Hohoho. I was also surprised. Seonggi-san adapted much faster than I expected.”
Haha.”

She still didn’t know that my abilities were copied from her.

It was then.
Seulbi Kim, who was walking in front of her, suddenly stopped her steps.

“Uh?”

I followed her and looked in front of her as she let out a surprised voice.
Then we saw a woman standing in front of us.

She felt that the pretty, childish woman was somehow familiar, so I looked back at her memories and found that she was a woman who had been to this dungeon once or twice.
It’s A-class, but didn’t you say you came here for practice not long after awakening?

But why was Seulbi Kim surprised to see her?

“Sister…”

The woman in front of us also made a surprised expression.
She looked back and forth between me and Seulbi Kim with her hard face.
