Chapter 361 – Upgrade Strength (9)

“Uh, how…”

How did this happen?

Han Cheol-gwan let out a voice while feeling the pain in his body as if he was about to lose his mind.

“Well? Why?”

Yuna Kang said calmly.
He could read the tremendous hatred on her face.
There were many people who made this kind of expression in front of themselves.
And they all paid their dues.

It was true that I was living like a dick while doing shit, but there was no need to listen to it or receive hateful glare from the weak.
The weak just had to crawl in front of themselves.
Just like he always does with people stronger than him.

But what about this year now?

Naturally, Han Cheol-gwan never recognized Kang Yoo-na as a stronger person than him.
She was under the title, and she thought her innocence and hard work a good character to laugh at.
Moreover, she did not even think that she would be physically stronger than he was.

He had many memories of using physical force while serving as minister.
While there was no direct violence against his subordinates in his workplace, it was easy for Hunter to pressure ordinary people.
All you have to do is make them tremble with mana.
And outside of work…

There were a lot of normal people and hunters to beat like a punching bag.
The most thrilling part of being a minister was that if you fight one-on-one, you often have a chance to beat an opponent you would lose 100% of the time.
The pleasure was irreplaceable.

It was a power that could be exercised because he was a minister and because he had an incomparable absolute network.
The opponent was unfair, but had no choice but to get beaten.
Counterattack was something that could only be risked with one’s own life.

But now, Kwan Cheol Han felt the feelings that the person he bullied should feel towards him.
To Yuna Kang.
To a weak woman who never needed more attention than she needed.

She thought in her head that there was no need to be afraid of this woman, but she knew and her instincts denied it.
He was rather scared of me because he himself was strong.

‘Did I become stronger?’

He couldn’t help but think so.
This instinct was something he felt because he was a hunter.

If it was the fear he felt because he was a hunter, it would be because his opponent was strong.

‘I can’t do that…’

There was no reason for Kang Yuna to suddenly become stronger.
Of course, Hunters grow.
But it was never an easy thing to do.

Moreover, isn’t Kang Yuna a civil servant?
She was always busy with work.
There was absolutely no time for her to enter dungeons or develop as a hunter.

She doesn’t know what happened while she was in the hospital, but it was clear that Yuna Kang must have been busier during that time.
Because she would have had to replace her until the ministerial day.

One way or another, I couldn’t quite understand it.

“Why are you doing this to me?”

The next question that came to my mind was why Kang Yuna did such violence against herself.
She knew, of course, that she didn’t like herself.
Differences in mindset, differences in sense of justice and morality.
None of them fit her.

She knew very well that she had a deep contempt for herself.
But she was strong enough to have to be conscious of it. I wasn’t a great person.
You don’t have to care about what the bug thinks or not, does it?
If you tried to bite it, it was enough to step on it.

Her own perception of Kang Yuna was just that.
She didn’t think she was a woman to use force in this way, even though she felt bad for herself.

‘Did I look at the wrong person?’

Bang!

While she was rolling this and that thought through her head, Kang Yu-na swung her fist once again.
The bones she had broken were shattered this time.

“Kwaaaaak!”

Being her hunter, even if her bones are broken, they stick together again.
But she had a time to get there.
The bone she was trying to attach to was dislocated again and ground to pieces, causing her great pain.
She had only hit her opponents so far, but she had never been hit to this extent.
She went to Kang A-jin’s house and what happened to her in the mountains.

The pain in her body she felt then and the pain now were on a different level.
If she said then that she felt like dying slowly, it wouldn’t be strange if she stopped breathing right now.

All kinds of thoughts came to her, but she didn’t think about it anyway.

“Wait a minute! Yuna-san!”

He moved his body like gold and grabbed Kang Yuna’s leg.

“My, I’m sorry! I did everything wrong! So help me! Please!”
“Are you wrong?”

Yuna Kang asked in a cold voice.

“Yes! I did wrong! I’m the one to kill! Of course, to a righteous person like Yuna, a guy like me would look like trash. But is there a need to kill people? I’m the one who will quit minister soon! I’ll push you! You don’t have to be a murderer for someone like me! Don’t ruin your hard-earned career!”

Han Cheol-gwan poured out his words at will.
Of course, I had no intention of keeping what I just said.
For once, you have to live.
With such determination, he begged Kang Yuna.

“Of course you’re trash. A guy like you shouldn’t be the Minister of Hunter. But a sense of justice? Do you think I’m doing this because of that?”
“Yes?”

While Han Cheol-gwan stupidly asked back, a fist landed on his face once again.

Bang!

His nose bone collapsed.
There was something wrong with his eyes, too, and his vision was darkened, so he couldn’t see anything.

“Make no mistake. This is personal revenge.”
“Personal?”

Han Cheol-gwan couldn’t even guess.
What kind of personal grudge does Kang Yuna have against herself?
She never directly harmed her.
If it’s indirect…

There were too many guesses, so I couldn’t pick one.

“I, please…”

Personal revenge is even more dangerous.
I felt relieved when I saw her face on the interphone monitor, but I wondered if she was really going to die in vain like this.

Then I heard the phone ringing.
It wasn’t her own.

Kang Yu Na put her hand in her pocket and pulled out her cell phone.
Happiness spread like a lie on her face, which had been filled with hatred.

“Ah! Mr. Penis!”

‘Mr. Sunggi?’

Hearing the name that he would never forget even in his dreams through Kang Yuna’s voice, Han Cheol-gwan was alerted.
Could it be that Kang Yuna and Kang Seonggi know each other?

It felt like solving a mystery.
I know what kind of ability the strong character has.
He had the ability to seduce women.
If he didn’t have that ability, it wouldn’t make sense for all the existing S-class female hunters to stick to him.
Even the steel-walled Kang A-jin stuck to him.

‘If Kang Yuna is also a woman of Kang Seong-gi…’

I got it.
Why did he use such indiscriminate violence against himself?
It was only natural that we were on the same side.
Would you say that being too conscious of strong growth was a failure?

She’s not the woman he thought was on the same side as him, and she never thought her vice minister, Kang Yuna, would come looking for her.

He thought Kang Seong-gi had great abilities as a hunter and even used excellent strategies.
If he had the ability to seize women, it would have been easy to seduce Kang Yuna.
I don’t know the principle, but Kang Sung-ki seems to have made Kang Yuna stronger.

“As expected! You are safe! What happened to those people? Japanese hunters?”

Han Cheol-gwan listened to Kang Yuna’s voice.
He was also curious about the results.
I couldn’t get in touch with Ryota and I did get in touch with Kaori, but she just said that she missed her prime.

If both Japanese hunters were safe, it would be okay to plan the future.
In any case, the priority was to survive here.

I said the harsh things I did to Kaori, but that’s what business is all about.
Japan saw this as a golden opportunity to reach out to Korea.
I couldn’t just give it up.
I thought I should change Kaori’s heart, even if it meant getting down on her knees and begging her.

“Yes? You killed one and let the other go?”

Hearing Kang Yuna’s words, Han Cheol-gwan tightly closed her eyes.
He had a moment of hope, but it was shattered.

It was clear that Ryota had died at the hands of Kang Seong-gi.
And Kaori says she just let go.
Kaori said she felt like she missed her prime, but she said maybe it was because of her pride.
Kang Seo-gi didn’t even feel the need to kill Kaori, and it seemed like he just spared her.

“Han Cheol-gwan is with me. I’ll take him with me.”

After saying that, Kang Yuna hung up on her.

“Yu, Mr. Yuna! Listen to me!”

Han Cheol-gwan urgently called out to Kang Yuna.
When it came to Kang Seong-gi, he was truly finished.
The one holding her lifeline was Kang Yuna, whom she had only considered as a mild sheep.
But…

Puck!

What came back instead of an answer was a dull shock in her abdomen.
Han Cheol-gwan was no longer in the physical condition to handle the blow.
And it seemed that Kang Yuna knew that too.

Han Cheol-gwan felt his consciousness go out.
The last thing he recognized was the sensation of her strong yuna lifting himself up so easily that he was caught in her side.
