Chapter 71 – [Raccoon Man Beginning]

Shion quickly figured out the location of Yongsan-dong’s Dimensional Jin and informed him. Even if you don’t do that anyway, the closer you get, the more you hear a loud noise.

[An enemy species has appeared for the first time. Its appearance is relatively close to that of a human, but its level is higher than that of super-large enemy species!]

“Can I catch it?!”

[I don’t believe in you who believes in you. You believe in the suit I believe in!]

“It’s meaningless to say something that seems to have something here?!”

The maximum speed of the Raccoon Man suit is about Mach 10. If you ask how fast this is, the maximum speed of the F-22 called Raptor, which is the famous fighter, is far short of Mach 2.25.

Half of the monstrous ability to circle the globe in only 3 hours was in the anti-gravity controller. If it wasn’t for that, Shion wouldn’t be able to reach that level of speed for a human-sized aircraft.

It took only a few seconds, let alone a few minutes, to get from Myeong-dong to Yongsan-dong. And as soon as he arrived, Baek-ri kicked at the one-eyed monster that seemed to be an enemy.

[Deploy the Void Blaster!]

“Rider Ah! Boyd Blaster Kiiiii!”

[Here, please use ‘The climax version of this special move!’!!!]

“Because I don’t know what it is!”

The void blaster deployed from each part caused a space earthquake and, along with physical force, dealt a fatal but effective blow to the humanoid enemy species. The shoulder part of his exoskeleton-like armor crumbled, revealing his original body inside.

It was filled with red muscles, as if human skin had been peeled off. You might think it’s like a human, but there was a weave in which red worms wriggled.

[Low damage even with a void blaster! That guy has concept resistance as well! In addition, the resistance is much higher than that of super-large enemy species!]

“So what?!”

[Currently, the weapon or technology equipped in the suit cannot defeat him. I couldn’t even install the subspace transmission device in the first place, so what do you want?]

The humanoid enemy species rolled its one eye here and there as if in bewilderment. Seeing the armor on his left shoulder that had been shattered, he trembled a little, but then stepped back as if on alert and glared at Baekri.

Seeing him move without releasing any energy, Shion was wary as well.

[Even if the power source uses the core of an enemy species, movement is not that of a creature that is affected by gravity. They say it’s because we have anti-gravity control technology, but he…Be careful. Apparently, Raph energy, the power used by the enemy species, seems to focus on the concept of ‘denial’]

“Is that important right now?!

Baekli was frightened and avoided the beam of humanoid enemy species. Focusing on numbers rather than power, he followed right behind even though Baekri circled and avoided the beams fired continuously.

And when the light passed through his head and became dangerous, Lee Kyung-jin swung his sword at his broken shoulder.

“Thanks for the attention! Raccoon Man!”

Kagagak!!!

Even though I tried my best to contain the force and cut it off, it only managed to cut his arm in half. No matter how strong it is, it is small, so even though the force fusion phenomenon ended a long time ago, it was said that the durability was purely enormous.

The guy tried to shoot a beam at Lee Kyung-jin, but he didn’t intend to let go easily.

Even those who attack from a distance had one weakness. That is, the light beam can only be directed toward the eye. So, if your neck is like an owl and doesn’t turn 360 degrees, there’s no way to attack the person behind you!

Even if they want to widen their distance, there are now two people instead of one. If you are vigilant to attack someone, one may aim for the back.

“Judging from the fact that he couldn’t react to me or the raccoon man approaching, it seems that his ability to detect is terrible!!!”

If not, there is no way you will not be alert when approaching from behind. Specializing in long-distance attacks and mobility, there was a fatal weakness as if the ability to sense was not developed.

He got nervous and tried to shoot a beam at Lee Kyung-jin, who was giggling behind his back, but the only thing he could hit was his afterimage.

But that wasn’t enough. Even though he had secured his back, there was only one way to mortally wound him.

“Raccoon Man! Even if it’s just for a moment, I’ll draw your attention!”

“I see!”

Baek-ri headed in front of him. And he deliberately caught himself off guard by firing menacingly at the Void Blaster.

Although strong, the intellect itself was not much different from that of the beast. They care more about the danger in front of them than the danger behind their backs. If I had known how to roll my head even a little, I would have attacked Lee Gyeong-jin from a distance after defeating Baek-ri first, but I shot a beam while staring at Baek-ri, who fired an attack that could not be ignored even if it was not fatal.

“Hey you bastard! Here it is!!!”

[Let’s blow it with a big one! Right-handed void blaster maximum output! Maximum Drive!]

“Drive? I know that!”

[No, that’s not it! Oh really! At least you don’t know about doubles?!]

Kiyiying!!!

I stretched out my right hand, which vibrated menacingly, and aimed it at him. Sensing something unusual, he gathered his strength to use the level of beams he had fired at the fighter squadron. The raff energy, clearly visible even in Baekri’s eyes, wriggled and condensed in his eyes.

The air shuddered.

But it wasn’t because of Baekri’s void blaster or the humanoid enemy’s beam.

Wooooo!!

“…It’s rare to develop this perfectly.”

Lee Gyeong-jin’s gray resonance sword is still unfinished. However, the Gray Resonance Sword is the ultimate skill that can counter anyone among the master users.

Moreover, among the colored resonance swords, the gray color signifies the spirit of victory. The effect is ‘amplification’.

Even so, the power to rip through the entire high-rise building is amplified, and it becomes a lethal sword and is swung.

Awesome!!!

From the shoulder blade to the pelvis, I cut the guy in half with a single blow. Then, as the last confirmed kill, Baekri’s Void Blaster with maximum output was fired.

Keying!!!

With a strange trembling, his body was torn to pieces. He still has breath, but on the contrary, it’s like only breathing, so the concept resistance is also low, so the void blaster entered correctly.

The crumbling corpse fell to the ground.

The last dimension in Korea was, however, closed.

“It’s over… I thought I was going to die”

The two came down to the ground and were relieved that the situation was over. And condolences were also shared for the victims.

As the dimension circle closed, the situation became busy cleaning up. Those who could afford it went out to rescue the wreckage of destroyed buildings or unexpected lives.

“Who are you anyway?”

“Yes?”

“Raccoon Man went to America at my request. So, aren’t you a different person than the Raccoon Man I know?”

“Ah… It’s No. 2.”

“No, was there something like number 2?!”

[I don’t know what the world will be like, even though I’m a middle-aged man, I don’t know the first Kamen Rider.]

“Don’t expect everyone to know every rider, sister-in-law.”

Among them, there are the Kamen Rider faction, the Ultraman faction, the monster monster faction like Godzilla, and the power rangers faction.

Among them, the Kamen Rider faction is further divided into Showa and Heisei. At least, Reiwa, which has recently changed, hasn’t come out much yet, so secondly, the most popular one in the current generation is the Heisei wave.

But Shion likes all riders, whether it’s Showa, Heisei, or Ray! If you’re a Kamen Rider fanatic, it’s natural!

“And that suit… No, that’s enough. I won’t say more.”

“Uh…..”

[He said that he was an inflexible uncle. He says that if he hadn’t won the fight, he would have cut off one and taken it to the police station]

“………”

Baekri was well aware of Lee Kyung-jin’s inflexibility. Anyone who was at least a little interested in being a force user wouldn’t know about a master user. You may have heard of the level of achievements of master users in your country.

As a close story, there was a slush fund case for Congressman Jeong two years ago.

At the time of the incident, there were many people involved, such as the president of a large company or other members of the National Assembly, and it was a case that went in and out of the prosecution.

Even though he was not a friend of 1 or 2 years, and he had known him since almost the Great Depression, he personally caught him and took him to the prosecution.

Thanks to this, lawmakers who are thinking about improving their image never associate with Lee Kyung-jin. If they do anything wrong and get caught, they are arrested and handed over to the prosecution. Other than that, the act of being dragged away erodes all the prestige, so you won’t be able to run for election again.

“Mister, I did a good job, but could you please take a look at it…?”

Baek-ri slowly backed away. Even a master user would not be able to catch him if he ran away at the speed of Mach 10, but the question was whether or not he could evade his sword right in front of his nose.

Humanoid aptitude species have concept resistance and have good durability, but how about a hundred li? It is certain that he is terrifying to trust only the suit’s defensive power.

Especially after seeing the gray resonance sword that cut the humanoid enemy in half.

However, Lee Kyung-jin smiled and shook his hand.

Haha! I know I’m not flexible, but I’m not without a conscience. The raccoon man I know went all the way to America to protect my daughter. But what if I catch someone related to him?”

“Oh, yes!”

“But even if the intention is good, the act must not be illegal.

This time, an enemy species that has never been seen before, called a humanoid enemy species, also appeared, and a super-large enemy species also appeared. Lee Kyung-jin also used the gray resonance sword twice, so it is true that he was honestly exhausted.

But I don’t think that excuse will work next time. Raccoon Man… So, since the worst No. 1 fought and lost, even so, if Baek-ri, the No. 2, was deliberately let go, he did not know what tricks he would come up with.

Furthermore, the function of the suit worn by Baek-ri is……

“Go ahead. I can’t defend you if you’re here any longer.”

“Thank you! Mister!”

The reason Lee Gyeong-jin let go of Baek-ri was because the worst went to the United States instead of him, but it was also thanks to the individual Baek-ri.

No matter how much he wears a suit like that, no one can fight at the risk of his life.

Just as few people can hunt wild beasts even if they are given a gun right away, his ability and courage are not proportional.

In that respect, Baek-ri could be said to be a rare honest and good person. Just the mere fact that he has such a personality in a society that is becoming more and more difficult is enough for Lee Kyung-jin to close his eyes.

A hundred li quickly flew up and he flew back to where he came from, followed by reporters.

There were many reporters around him asking about this fight and about Raccoon Man, but he didn’t pay attention to the questions and followed Baekri’s back.

Although his voice was altered, he could tell that he was young. At most, is it about her own daughter’s age?

“I hope that child is well…”

And it was after that that I got a call from the worst that the job was over.

*        *    *

Returning to the worst house, Baek-ri released the suit. However, when the job was over, he couldn’t help but feel his legs loosen up on their own.

When I entered, Shion was making hot soup. Since it takes a long time, it is not possible to make it from scratch, but most commercially available products are in powder form, so it does not take long to make.

“I worked hard. You must be relaxed and tired, but it’s better to eat something warm and soft.”

“Something was very scary…But still, it was worth doing”

“Probably because the opponent is a certain enemy. In this situation, you can fight comfortably, so it’s not bad for a first real fight.”

If it was a war fighting over each other’s right to live, we wouldn’t have been able to feel at ease like this. But the enemy species are monsters that try to kill humans. Even if they kill hundreds or thousands of people, they have no remorse.

Baekri smelled the soup and suddenly realized that she was hungry. He was unaware of the state of his body due to the tension of the real battle.

“Even if the suit does it for you, you are the one who moves your body. You must have been more active than you thought, so you should eat well. Have some soup here.”

“Ah…Thank you, sister-in-law”

Baekri scooped the soup out of the bowl Shion handed her with a spoon and put it in her mouth. He thought it would be hot since it had just been boiled, but it wasn’t as hot as he thought. It was cold enough to eat, and the soup soaked in the soup as if bread had been ripped off from time to time, so there were moist bread slices.

There’s no way something like that could be in commercial products, so I put the bread on purpose.

“Oh, I had leftovers from the baguette, so I added a little.”

“Isn’t your sister-in-law too much for you?”

“He always thinks so too. And thank you for the compliment”

The cream soup with pieces of bread went into my hungry stomach, and even though it was a commercial product, it tasted good. After emptying three or four bowls in one go, Baekri let out a sigh of relief as if her stomach was full.

He chose what happened today, but the responsibility is too great.

“It works once, but not twice. So, at least not next time.”

“I wouldn’t have stepped in if my store wasn’t damaged.”

“Isn’t it too unreliable for an excuse?”

“…….”

To be honest, if you ask whether buildings are important or people are important, of course it is the latter. However, Baek-ri accepted the loss.

It will be passed on to the next, uncertain future, but at least if this happens again, it is certain that Baek-ri will go out as Raccoon Man 2 again.

“Ah, I’ll return the transformation belt.”

“Have it for now. I’ll go from time to time and help with repairs or renovations.”

“Yes?! But isn’t this expensive?! I don’t think it’s something to hand over carelessly!”

“It’s an expensive item, but it’s not the function that’s expensive, it’s the power source that’s expensive. The price of a Soul Driver made from natural spirits, not spirits obtained from the soul, is no joke. So, if you don’t know anything else, secure a power source.”

“……Isn’t this big enough? You can’t put it in your pocket, and it’s too conspicuous to wear as a belt.”

Shion received the transformation belt from Baekri, placed it on his left wrist, and pressed the button again. Then the belt shrunk and changed into a wristwatch shape.

“Wow! That’s awesome!”

“When transforming, if you turn the watch rim counterclockwise here, it will return to its original state.”

“There are many functions beyond my imagination.”

“Isn’t it crazy? I’m proud to say that I blew up the capacity for one more weapon by adding a trivial function.”

“No, put the weapon rather!”

At that time, Shion’s phone started to vibrate and ring. The name that popped up on the screen was understandably the worst.

[Oh, is that over there too? I heard from the CIA man here. Is Baekri okay?]

“It’s okay. How about that side?”

[It’s done well here too. It seems difficult to go back today, and I think I can go within a day or two]

Most of them said hello, but they exchanged information intermittently and hung up the phone.

Shion made a slightly serious expression. He was so expressionless that it was difficult to recognize him, but he could realize that there was something even if he had a frown on his face and Baekri, who didn’t know how to think.

“What’s wrong, sister-in-law?”

“The situation seems to be more serious than I thought.”

“Huh? What is it? Didn’t you catch all the enemy species well?”

“I caught everything, but…”

Shion secretly searched for information from Japan and China. He repelled the enemy species safely, although both countries suffered damage. However, the Japanese master user, Hibiki, is unconscious.

What she is trying to figure out is not the victory or defeat of the battle, but the information about the hostile humanoid species that emerged from it.

“The humanoid species that appeared in Korea were those that focused on long-distance combat.”

“Uh… So what?”

“And Korea’s master user, Lee Kyung-jin, was vulnerable to ranged attacks.”

“…….”

The humanoid race in the United States, which I heard from the worst, is the same.

“The ones that appeared in the US are specialized in close-range combat. But the master users in the US are specialized in long-range combat, so if you can’t keep your distance, your combat power will be halved.”

“Can’t we see it as a coincidence up to the second time?”

“He also appeared in Japan specializing in speed, so it doesn’t match well with Hibiki-san, who has a strong tank temperament.”

“Uh……?”

It gets a little weird when you get there.

“And lastly, what appeared in China was durability, and especially specialized in strike defense. Chinese master users are generally all-rounders, but since they are bare-handed fighters, Lee Kyung-jin would not have struggled, but she managed to catch it.”

“It’s blatant if you go there.”

“Yes, there must be something”

Some people say that monsters from other dimensions come over due to dimensional formations and enemy species.

But this one made it clear.

That the other party was coming over with clear malice and information from this world.
