Primitive magical knowledge.

 

At the same time, it is an IT device made with technology that I couldn’t even imagine.

 

I’m curious as to why this place has evolved in such a strange way, but there’s something to point out first.

 

‘So even if I use the absorbent here, no one will know?’

 

Because the difference in information was the difference in power.

 

This made me realize one thing.

 

Maybe, even if I can’t use magic, I can still survive on Earth.

 

***

 

…A week has passed since then.

 

“Hoaaam.”

 

It’s been a few days since I came to Earth.

 

Now, I am quite familiar with Kim Kiryeo’s body. I got up from the bed.

 

Even today, the magic still hasn’t come out.

 

Still, I nodded with satisfaction while looking at the mirror in front of the bathroom.

 

“I’ve gained weight.”

 

I was recovering my health quickly, perhaps thanks to my hard work in nutrition.

 

I expressed gratitude for my small accomplishment and returned to my room.

 

It was a leisurely morning.

 

‘Let’s eat the eggs I bought today!’ 

 

But in fact, my current situation was far from leisurely. 

 

Rather, it should have been seen as a crisis. Because I have felt the bitterness of society keenly over the past week.

 

‘I hope the problem is solved before I eat all these eggs.’

 

This is a profession where I can spend hundreds of millions of dollars if I put my mind to it. Hunter. 

 

However, contrary to the fantasy in the media, life as a low-ranking F to E-Class hunter was no different from hell. 

 

Since the most awakened people fall into this class, don’t they go to different areas to attack a single gate, let alone find a normal hunting ground…?

 

However, weak monsters that anyone can defeat don’t make money.

 

So, there are all kinds of risks lurking in catching monsters that can make money.

 

The money that an F-class awakening person earns for a month at the risk of risking their life is about 4.3 million won. 

 

To be honest, while researching the hunter job for the past week, the final evaluation I made of F-Class life was ‘low level compatibility with hard work.’ 

 

‘There are related memories in Kiryeo’s brain as well. Still, when you awaken, you become stronger than an ordinary person. F-Class people who pursue safety all went to construction sites and took the jobs…’

 

Moreover, I was in a particularly bad situation.

 

The reincarnated being has a problem with one of its legs and can’t use any magic.

 

What can this trashy body do to beat something?

 

‘Poison butterflies don’t make money. The association doesn’t even buy it.’

 

If I keep going like this, my savings will run out, and I will starve to death again. So I came up with a different idea for making money. 

 

“First of all, I brought a lot of absorbent.”

 

I took a quick look.

 

There are already black envelopes piled up in the small studio.

 

These were the soil I had taken from the gate, and I knew a few magical creatures I could kill with them. 

 

I knew a few things about water.

 

I searched and found that there were similar monsters on Earth…

 

“The problem is how to get into the C-Class gate where it lives.”

 

According to the regulations of the association, Kiryeo, an F-Class hunter, wasn’t permitted to enter the C-Class gate.

 

“How about a chat?”

 

I thought for a while to come up with a good idea.

 

‘It’s difficult to start a business with an absorbent when I don’t know much about the Earth yet. Moreover, it’s strange that the body I chose is an F-Class. There’s definitely something wrong with that awakening test…’

 

And…

 

ㅡBeeeep…

 

ㅡWuuung…

 

Ack! What kind of noise is it!

 

“It surprised me!”

 

Suddenly, a loud noise rang from Kim Kiryeo’s cell phone.

 

I think nothing like this has ever happened before?

 

ㅡBeep.

 

I was startled and quickly checked my phone.

 

The screen was then filled with a text message.

 

< Emergency disaster text message

[[Dungeon Break] July 13th, 12:30 

Red Gate occurs near Mapo-gu, Seoul

B-Class monsters appearance alert / monster movement

Evacuate after checking the route https://www—.]

 

“What does this mean?”

 

Even after seeing the text, I couldn’t understand the situation for a moment.

 

But the commotion didn’t end there.

 

Around the time when I was dumbfounded by what I was experiencing for the first time. I realized that the outside of the hallway had become noisy.

 

Through the thin wall of the studio, the sound of the door next door thumped and rang…

 

When I listened closely, I saw that some people started running and making noises.

 

It’s stupid not to notice this much, so I immediately opened the front door and evacuated with the residents.

 

‘I don’t know what it is, but I think it’ll be dangerous if I stay still.’

 

Is there maybe a monster approaching?

 

I was curious about the details of the situation, but there was no time to ask questions.

 

Kiryeo’s painful legs were limited to just chasing after the residents. I had no choice but to shut up and focus on walking.

 

“Heuk, whoo…”

 

By the way, this body must have had its lungs damaged.

 

I’ve awakened my magic power, but I’m out of breath from running? I gasped and ran after a neighbor.

 

Then, the place where we finally stopped was…

 

“Wow~ it’s so big. Is that really a B-Class monster?” 

 

“Everyone, step back!”

 

“Hello~ YTube people! Today’s live broadcast is…!”

 

Damn it!

 

This human wasn’t evacuated!

 

‘I couldn’t run fast, so I was forced to do it and chose the slowest person…’

 

I guess I chose the wrong person to follow. This was not a shelter, but a gathering of people who came to watch something unconcernedly.

 

“Step back!”

 

In the distance, I can see the main character of the disaster warning.

 

First of all, a reptile three times as large as the Beginner Killer is rampaging and destroying the city park…

 

“Oh.”

 

At the same time, there are movements of hunters trying to stop this.

 

‘Huh? Wait, I think one person looks familiar?’

 

While I was watching the hunters in action, I noticed a familiar face.

 

That hairstyle stands out even when I see it from afar. As expected, isn’t that the same hunter? 

 

‘That’s the primitive magic used by Earth’s hunters. But because it’s far away, I can’t see it very well…’

 

I snuck through the crowd to see the fight up close.

 

Of course, I didn’t cross the police line. 

 

‘Now I know what this yellow tape means.’

 

Since I learned about Earth’s off-limits culture, there shouldn’t be any problem. That was the moment I thought.

 

“Oh, come on! Let’s pass by~”

 

Puk.

 

Someone squeezed in front of the line. At the same time, he pushed me, who was standing nearby.

 

“Ugh!”

 

My weak body couldn’t withstand even this minor shock…

 

Soon, there was a small commotion.

 

This side broke down part of the police control line and fell forward.

 

“Ah! I’m sorry!”

 

I apologized to the police as I hurriedly put up the fallen pillar. And then I looked back.

 

The purpose was to determine the cause of the shock.

 

‘Is it this guy?’

 

However, the image of the culprit who caused the accident was quite different from what was imagined. I thought there was a pig with muscles three times bigger than Kiryeo. 

 

The person standing behind me was just a man with a body type commonly seen on the streets.

 

He knocked me down with those thin arms? This is ridiculous. 

 

‘I’ve never seen such humiliation before. I’ve never been hurt in my hometown because I’ve been wearing double or triple protective magic.’

 

I almost burst into tears when I realized my pitiful situation. But then, a harsh voice came from the man who had pushed me.

 

“I didn’t even push that hard, but you’re making a fuss!”

 

“….”

 

“What are you looking at when you’re blocking the road? You’re glaring at me. Are you picking a fight now?”

 

No, I’ve never glared.

 

This was just a mindless observation of Earthlings, but it seems like there was a misunderstanding somewhere.

 

The cheeky man glanced at me and laughed.

 

“Wow, that’s scary, huh? Hey. I see you’re being angry, but I’m a hunter.”

 

He consistently looked down on me.

 

“I came here to investigate so I could refer to it while working. I’m not the kind of person who just acts around thinking that if I’m next to a monster, I’ll awaken too~.”

 

Oh, so that’s why there were so many ordinary onlookers? 

 

“So relax your eyes. Anyway, even if I hit the non-awakened person, my hand will only hurt~” 

 

The man who introduced himself as Hunter took out a tripod from his arms and began setting it up.

 

Not only did he push me, but I also had a strange misunderstanding. I corrected the truth out of frustration.

 

“I’m Hunter, too. I was here for the same reason as you.”

 

“…Hunter? What class?”

 

“…F-Class.”

 

But the Hunter snorted at the conversation that followed.

 

“Ah, F-Class?”

 

I thought that if you weren’t at the gate at a time like this and were watching other people’s fights, you would either be unemployed or a low-level hunter.

 

Don’t tell me the lowest F-Class.

 

“Isn’t there a perception in Korea that if you push someone else, you have to apologize?”

 

The man completely ignored the words that followed and focused on his work. I was downcast for a moment.

 

‘Even though I know about Earth’s culture, I still don’t know.’

 

It was that moment.

 

There was a loud noise in the distance that made my heart sink.

 

This was the sound of a giant lizard walking around the city falling, and then the people around it shouted.

 

“Whoa! I caught it!”

 

“I should post it on social media.”

 

“Look over there! Hunters are coming this way! Can I get your autograph?”

 

As they said, hunters were coming in the direction of this border.

 

To be more precise, it looks like one hunter suddenly runs, and the rest, who don’t know what’s going on, follow.

 

“It’s Ahn Yoonseung! Ahn Yoonseung! I only saw him on TV. Wow.”

 

“This young friend is amazing.”

 

“Dear subscribers! Can you see it? This is an A-Class Hunter Ahn Yoonseung! 

 

Recently, I found out something through a search.

 

In the world, A-Class Hunters are elites who belong to the top 3% of awakened people. In fact, it is the Class that contributes the most to city safety. 

 

It is said that these high-level hunters are the people’s idols.

 

So people responded enthusiastically towards a hunter running towards them.

 

“Whoa… Ahn Yoonseung is so close…”

 

And this good-for-nothing man also admires the A-Class Hunter. 

 

He fixed the camera lens on Ahn Yoonseung as if he were possessed. But Ahn Yoonseung ignores the police and keeps running—but why is he getting closer and closer to here? 

 

“Huh?”

 

Around that time the man made a dumb noise.

 

Ahn Yoonseung, who finally arrived at his destination, stopped in front of the onlookers and gasped for breath and said this.

 

“H, h, h! Hello!”

 

Immediately afterwards, he grabs my hand outside the boundary line with both hands.

 

“You’re that person, right? That person! To see you in a place like this! I really lived thanks to you at that time! Ah, that’s right. I don’t know if you remember, but who I am is… You helped me at the gate the other day.”

 

“I remember.”

 

“Thank you so much, Hyung!”

 

A young man who is the nation’s idol bows flatly in front of someone with his back bent to 90 degrees!

 

People around him looked at this situation as if they were surprised, but Ahn Yoonseung paid no attention and spoke rapidly.

 

“So you were still in Mapo! But what’s going on here… Ah, I guess it’s because of the dungeon break. Well, there’s no way someone like Hyung-nim won’t show up. But it’s okay now. I organized everything…”

 

But after a while.

 

Ahn Yoonseung suddenly stopped talking. Then he glanced back at the man standing next to me.

 

The cameraman with whom I had just had an argument was staring at me because of what had just happened… 

 

Ahn Yoonseung noticed that someone kept glancing in my direction, so he briefly asked if he was mistaken.

 

“Is this your group?”

 

But there’s something I didn’t mention.

 

I didn’t know about it until now because he didn’t look well the last time I saw him due to an injury.

 

But this is what Ahn Yoonseung looks like when we meet him again.

 

A skinhead shaved short enough to look green.

 

Spectacular scratch. 

 

Dusky eye area.

 

And a silver piercing located on his left nostril…

 

To be honest, if only Ahn Yoonseung would stop talking. 

 

“Yes?”

 

He had an impression that would make even robbers roll their eyes.
