Chapter 623 – Zhang Lin, the Ten Tigers (2)

Zhang Fang and Zhang Lin.
The two were brother and sister.
The siblings are both S-class hunters and belong to one of the best guilds in China, the ‘Ten Tigers Girl’.
My parents wanted to be very happy.

Like siblings in real life, the two clashed.
I also knew that Zhang Fang wanted to show off his rank in the guild, so I felt relieved by Zhang Lin’s criticism.

Zhang Lin walked over and sat with us.
Judging by the atmosphere, it seemed that not all 10 of the Ten Tigers had come to Korea, but I wondered if it was only these three.

All S-class Hunters.
Perhaps even this much is unconventional.

“Has the story started?”
“No, I just sat down.”
“Yes yes~”

Zhang Lin didn’t seem very interested in the conversation we were about to have.
Even she immediately took out her cell phone and looked at it.
Judging by the sound coming from inside, it seemed like they were playing a game.

“Lina. It’s noisy, so turn off the game.”

Without answering her brother’s words, she took out her earphones and put them in her ears.

“Whoa…”

Zhang Feng let out a sigh and opened the stopper on her traditionalism.
It just looked like a very strong drink.
I had the ability to not feel that way in any strong drink, but I wondered why I was drinking for that.
To be honest, I don’t really enjoy drinking.
Whether before or after becoming a Hunter.

However, since it is a place for public conversation, it would be good to accept a glass.

I held out my glass and took his drink.
Then he poured wine into his glass and filled Wang Chun’s glass as well.
Wangchun didn’t even take a second to drink.
As if the amount was not full, he put a glass of water in front of him and poured his drink into it.
And he hit a one-shot with two cups in a row.

His habit of drinking like this probably continued even before he became a Hunter.
Do you think it’s worth the weight?

“Uh? Why am I discriminating?”

Said Zhang Lin, who was playing the game.
She slammed her fingernail down on her empty glass in front of her bed.

“I-I know if I’m going to drink.”
“Yes, sorry.”

I also poured a drink into her glass.
Then she slipped in and added one more thing.
The aphrodisiac created between the fingers.

This would make her body hot.

Zhang Lin drank the drink I poured out without any doubt.
And she put her nose into her phone again.

“Forgive my sister for being rude. I, her brother, raised her alone without her parents, so it ended up like this.”
“Don’t lie~ I was raised by my grandmother~ Her grandmother said I grew up ten times better than her brother~~”

Zhang Lin said whether she could still hear her voice even with the earphones plugged into her ears.
Zhang Feng coughed, “Hmm,” Cleared his throat.

In any case, the other two had a unique style, so Zhang Feng and I were the only ones who clinked glasses and drank normally.
I never thought I would consider this mustachioed man normal.

He put down his glass and took a piece of well-cut duck meat and put it in her mouth.
The fat that made his lips glisten also tempted me to try the duck meat.
I thought it was very delicious as I smelled the scent of high-end cuisine.
Just by tasting this, I felt that it was worth following here.

Zhang Feng opened her mouth.

“I will be straightforward. Is it true that ‘black dragon eggs’ are being sold at this auction?”
“Yeah.”

Naturally expecting this story, I responded immediately.

“Um, that’s great.”
“What?”
“Because our president wants to have that item. I didn’t know where it was until now, but I’m glad I found it.”
“I hope you win the auction.”
“Yeah? What do you mean?”
“Since it’s going to be auctioned off, isn’t that what you mean by winning the auction? Then you’ll go back and get compliments, and if you’re good, you’ll be second or first in the hierarchy. Congratulations.”

“Foot!”

Zhang Lin, who had her earphones plugged in, burst into laughter at my words.
When Zhang Feng looked at her, she looked at Zhang Lin as if nothing had happened.

“Are you kidding me right now?”
“Oh, sorry. I’m not talking about rank, but I was rude that part.”
“No, that’s not what I meant. You mean to hold an auction, to us?”
“Yeah. What’s wrong with that?”

I frowned at the thought of being the same.
I’ve heard in many places that I can come out recklessly, but I can’t believe it really came out like this.
I thought I just wanted to get up and leave.

“Look at this, Hunter.”

Zhang Feng grabbed her weight and said.

“When the three of us, the ten best girls, come to this small country. Because they have their own expectations.”
“If you’re looking forward to it…”
“This is Hunter’s sincerity. Furthermore, the sincerity of this country!”
“Sincerely… Have you ever ridden a cable car? This cable car is pretty good. I will give you a ride for free.”
“This man!”

Bang!

Wang Chun, who was watching, also put down the bottle he was holding, perhaps feeling upset.
Still, I didn’t hit it too hard enough to break the bottle, probably because I didn’t like spilling.

“If you don’t like the cable car, you can go for sashimi. Does it make sense to come to Busan and only eat Chinese food like this? Then what is the meaning of traveling?”

“It looks delicious, sashimi.”

Zhang Lin licked her lips while playing a game on her phone.

Zhang Feng crossed her arms and leaned back on the sofa, as if trying to suppress her anger.

“I understand. It’s not the first time I’ve seen people like Hunter. If you live as an S-class hunter in such a small country, it will feel like the whole world belongs to you. Right? But let’s turn our eyes to the world. Right now, the world revolves around China. Just as Joseon paid tribute to China in the past, shouldn’t Korea show sincerity to us now? When the president said he wanted it, you should understand it as meaning that he would not participate in the auction. Do I even have to interpret this much?”
“So… You’re not going to participate in the auction?”
“Yes, of course. What are we supposed to do? In the first place, ‘black dragon eggs’ came from China. So we have a right, that is.”
“Whoa…”

I sighed and leaned back on the sofa.

“If you think about it that way, there is no meaning to the existence of an auction. If we take all of them out of the country of origin, will there be anything left?”
“Well…”

Zhang Feng scratched his cheek.

“I’ve never had a conversation this long, to be honest. If you do this, you will be able to understand, but it is really difficult.”
“I am in trouble too. I’m uncomfortable with conversations like this. Be direct and say what you want. Tribute? Do you want a tribute?”
“I didn’t tell you. If you take care of it, we, China, will look good on you. Don’t you know what that means?”
“I don’t know, you thief.”
“Ah, a thief…?”

It was then.
Wang Chun, who was still, raised his hand.
He tried to hit me on the head with one hand the size of a pot lid.

I quietly raised my right hand.
It turned into a sharp sword and pierced Wang Chun’s palm as he fell.

“Quaaaaagh!”

The sword I envisioned had a sharp tip, but it was a structure that widened as it descended.

Therefore, although Wangchun’s pierced palm was small, his hand quickly fell and cracked open.
His fingers split apart, extending to the middle of his palms.

“Ahh! Aaaaagh!”

Wang Chun struggled, holding his hand for his size.

Zhang Lin also wondered what was going on, so he quickly turned off his phone and pulled the earphones out of his ears.

“This, this…”

Zhang Feng looked down at Wang Chun, who was screaming.
He had an expression that he didn’t know how to deal with what had happened so quickly.

He had to be like that, as I figured out, he was the weakest of the 10 girls who came to Korea.
Even though the ranking was 3rd, I could see that it was not a ranking based on combat ability.

So this guy was weaker than Wang Chun screaming next to him.
In the yard where Wangchun was hit, he was embarrassed because he could not do anything.

I looked at Zhang Lin.

“Zhang Lin, what do you think of her brother?”
“Yes? Are you my brother?”

Zhang Lin looked at Zhang Feng.
She sighed and pulled herself up.

“I do not know. Just don’t kill me.”

She just left the room.

“You you…!”
“Think of it because of your brother.”

I put the palm of my hand on his head.

The soul mage weapon was built into my body anyway, and it could be used in many ways.
The entire arm could be turned into a weapon and used, and it was possible to shoot with only the fireball in the palm of the hand like now.

Pop!

Fired a short-range mana bullet.

His head snapped back.

I decided not to kill as Zhang Lin said.
But from now on, he would never be able to live as a Hunter.
Let alone rank 3, you will be kicked out right away.
So now the tenth girl is a relief girl…

“No.”

I reached out to Wang Chun, who was still struggling with his wrists.

Pop!-

“Now, girl eight.”
