A Monster Hunter Born of Capitalism

“That's where the slaver is. It's the headquarters of the Salton Guild. ”

“It's a big building. ”

The headquarters of the Salton Guild was a palatial mansion. The mansion had a large garden, which was a luxurious garden to see in a drama or movie.

‘You fucked up because you couldn't afford it. ’

A huge statue was decorated throughout the garden. It does not seem to make a dime or two, both of which are large and exquisitely crafted.

The garden may look artistic and majestic in the eyes of a person who has an aesthetic sense, but all he saw was money.

“Yooseong. Those statues... They're all golems. ”

“Golem?”

“Yes, we can tell by the waves of Mana. Those statues are all golems. I'm sure.”

“There are over 20 statues in this garden and they're all golems? ”

Golems have many different durability and abilities depending on the materials they make, but stone golems made of stone are extremely durable like the statues in this garden. It is said that the core material is hard because it is a rock, but the strength of the rock is even stronger because of the Golem Core used to make Golems.

It was only a golem that could be defeated hundreds or thousands of times unless he destroyed the core of the inner golem.

‘It's such a waste to use Manatan to catch golems.... ’

Shooting Manatan at the golem is like shooting a gun against a wall. You can't do that much damage.

‘Now we must go to melee combat. ’

Meteor transformed the weaponizer into a giant sword.

“Let's crush it before the golem moves. ”

Everyone nodded at his words. At the same time, the golems start to move with a red glare.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

The awakened golem roars.

“This is what happens when you try to do something all the time. It's never an easy day. ”

Yooseong sighed and fixed the sword. Everyone draws their weapons and prepares for battle.

Bang, bang! Bang!

Golems awake from the statue begin to approach.

“It's time for me to step up. ”

The rock stands in front of the coming golems.

“This doesn't sound like the tides we've been dealing with. Yes, a strong one like this should be able to fight. Tae Joon, I'll take care of this place. Go straight to the mansion and kill the slaver. ”

“Grock, are you gonna be okay by yourself? ”

“Enough.”

Grock pushed Tae Joon's back and said. Tae-jun Kim nodded and turned.

“Then let's go. ”

The group sets out to assign the golem to Grock, and Marquesas takes a step back.

“Mr. Grock can't do this alone. There's too many of them. I'll stay, too. Go ahead. ”

Mineral water remains behind to help Grock.

Yooseong's group heads to the mansion, leaving the two behind.

The remaining mineral water in the garden and Grock faced each other.

“Hey, bald man. Don't interrupt. ”

“I'm not bald yet. Mr. Grock, you'll grow back. ”

“Missing head... Hmm, no. This shield looks sturdy. If you stop the attack, I'll destroy the golem right away. ”

“Very well. I'll take good care of it, then. ”

“Good. Let's try it, then. ”

* * *

The mansion of the slaver was enchanted. A group of meteors enters the front door of the mansion, scattered by the magical influence of the mansion.

I don't know what happened to the others, but Yooseong fell with Tae Joon Kim.

“Where am I? ”

“The basement of the mansion. ”

“How much money is left to build underground? Wow, there's an elevator. Let's take this.”

He pointed at the elevator in front of his eyes and told Tae Joon Kim.

“The entire mansion has been enchanted and turned into a maze. Do you want to take the elevator now? ”

“Yes. You're enchanted by the maze anyway. You don't know the way. I think this will be easier than going up the stairs. It's the easiest way to do it. ”

Kim Tae-jun, who had not thought of anything to argue with, quietly climbed up to Yooseong and the elevator without saying anything else.

“Hey, there's a mansion up to the fourth floor. What floor is the slaver on? ”

“The room of the original slaver is on the fourth floor. But the maze is enchanted, and I wonder if this will work. ”

“Well, if you can't, you have to keep going around the house. Is that okay?"

Yooseong pressed the button going to the fourth floor and closed the door.

Whoo-hoo!

The elevator starts to go up. It was built in a mansion, so I didn't go up that fast.

Tiring!

“You've arrived.”

Yooseong and Kim Tae-jun carefully stepped into the corridor.

“There doesn't seem to be anything special about it. ”

“But you have to be careful. A slaver is a skilled wizard. It could have enchanted the hallway. ”

“Let's check it out then. Eve, you go first. ”

[What kind of minesweeper am I? I can't believe you're using me for something so dangerous. I'm disappointed.]

“You're an artificial intelligence. If we move the drone to another drone, that's it. ”

[You make it sound so easy to say it's someone else's business.]

Eve flies forward, grumbling and turning the propeller. Eve took the end of the hall and returned to Yooseong.

[It doesn't look like there's much magic involved.]

“They say so.”

“Can I trust you? It's a drone, not a human... ”

“Magic doesn't discriminate between people and drones. It only triggers if it meets the conditions. ”

“But this is too frivolous. ”

Kim Tae-jun hesitated without clearing his doubts, but he decided that Yooseong was okay and took a big step.

“Look, is everything all right? ”

I had to make sure that Yooseong's body was fine before I walked to Tae Joon Kim. Kim Tae-jun looked at Yooseong with a ridiculous look.

“Is that your usual personality? ”

“Yes.”

“I see……. ”

“Is there a problem? ”

“Should Yooseong be brave or bold.... You're a little different from the others. ”

“Well, I'm a cautious person. You saw the drone check and move. ”

Yooseong walked forward, striking his hand.

“Is that the slaver's room over there? The door is spectacular. ”

“That's right. He likes what it looks like. That door must have been an expensive one from overseas. ”

Yooseong and Kim Tae-jun walked in front of the slave traders' visits.

“Then I'll open it. ”

Hiccup!

Tae Joon Kim entered the room with his jacquard at the same time as the salt. In the room, I saw a middle-aged man drinking coffee. The middle-aged man seemed very surprised by the two sudden arrivals.

“I'm sure I put magic in the mansion. How...? ”

“I took the elevator. ”

“Oops. Is the elevator not spelled correctly? What a nuisance.”

A middle-aged man grabbed his tongue as if it were annoying.

“Slave trader! You're done here, too! I will kill you and take back your freedom! ”

That middle-aged man seemed to be the slaver Kim Tae-jun was going after. Yooseong pulled the trigger without giving the slaver any time to prepare.

Bang!

Whoo-hoo!

Manatan shot by Yooseong fell to the ground as if blocked by something. When Manatan didn't work, his eyes widened.

“What? Why isn't it working? ”

“That must be the gun that killed our guild officers. I wonder where they got those weapons. ”

When the jacquard didn't work, Yooseong deformed the weaponizer with a double barrel shotgun and fired his gun again. But this time, Manatan stayed in the air for a while as if he had been blocked by something, and then just fell to the ground.

“Eight times I overlapped the shield magic and wrapped it around me. That gun of yours won't work either. ”

“You can break the shield! ”

If the Double Barrel Shotgun doesn't take its toll, it can deal continuous damage. Yooseong switched the webwriter back to jacquard and switched the adjustment time to fumes.

Bam, bam! Tadadadang!

Manatan was scattered across the slaver's shield countless times, but the slaver's shield created through the overlap was intact.

“How many tools do you think I use? This ring will charge faster than you can break my shield. Haha. That gun you're using may have worked for my guild members, but it doesn't work for me. ”

“You're saying the same A class is different. ”

The Mohican hair and the funeral was Class A, but I couldn't stop Manatan at all, and my head burst and died instantly.

“Yooseong! It won't work because of his tools! I'll use the Anti-Mana Orb! ”

Tae Joon Kim tried to take out the Anti Mana Orb and use it in his arms. However, the slaver moved faster.

“Bind.”

A magic circle appeared in the hands of the slaver. It was a bind, a binding magic. Tae-jun Kim, who was faced with the restraining magic, flew to the wall and said, "Good."

“Damn it! ”

I just had to move my finger a little and press the actuation button, and that was it. Then the surrounding Mana will be frozen and the slaver will have nothing to do with it. However, Tae-jun Kim's finger, which was caught in the restraining spell, did not move a bit.

‘Oh, shit. As soon as you enter the room, you'll want to use the Anti-Mana Orb first. ’

The user should have calmly written the item first, but it was a setback. Yooseong began to roll his head to overcome this situation.

‘Wizards are very proud of their magic skills. ’

Then I suddenly remembered what Titania had said before.

You said the Wizard was proud of his magic. I don't know if this is gonna work, but I have to try. ’

“You're a great magician. I didn't expect to be overwhelmed so quickly. ”

“Life is different from those of you. Young people like you only do what you want to do. I don't think of anyone else. ”

What the hell is that maniac talking about? Says the man who abducted a man and enslaved him. Yooseong was stunned and had a stuffy nose.

What the hell is that old man talking about? For someone else? Even the passing dog speaks nonsense. ’

However, the slaver seemed to have bitten the rice cake that Yooseong threw.

“You don't mean to tell me you did all this for someone else, do you? ”

“You know better. ”

The slaver shakes his head slowly.

“Don't bullshit me! Slaver! You kidnapped someone and enslaved them for someone else? ”

“Cocky bastard. Shut that mouth. ”

Whoo-hoo!

This time it was silent magic, Silence. Tae-jun Kim, who was bewitched by silence, couldn't say what he wanted to say. His mouth only heard the sound of "town."

“Continue.”

The slaver began to speak again, and Yooseong stood still and listened to him.

[Goddess of jest: What torque time, instead of fighting all of a sudden? Do you want to talk? Why aren't you fighting? Why are you shooting a talk show?]

[666: Don't move, because the gun didn't work.] Look at his face. Can't you see I'm rolling my eyes at you right now? Blah.]

‘It's hard to use the Anti-Mana Orb while he's bewitched. I think if the magic is lifted for a while.... ’

It seemed difficult to create that brief gap.

"Do you want to sneak into the store and buy some stuff? ’

The slaver has been talking to himself ever since. Even though I said it to Yooseong, it would be right to call him a soliloquy because he wouldn't listen. A slaver who is passionate about explaining his blue work seems distracted.

Yooseong opened the shop window secretly so that he wouldn't get caught. Yooseong was successful in opening the shop window, but finding the item was not easy. I couldn't summon Titania, who was helping me search, so I didn't know what to use in this situation. Nevertheless, I could not look at the description with the items prominent.

You want to make a point on the altar? ’

Titania made it clear that she would be able to earn good items by donating points to the altar. You have already given 150,000 points. Only 500,000 points can win this item.

‘It's hard to find items in the shop right now anyway. I have no choice but to pray for good items from the altar. ’

Yooseong offered points to the altar.

[God is pleased with your tribute and offers items!]

[Mana Bomb X 20] has entered your inventory.]

Mana Bomb? ’

Yooseong quickly started scanning through the item description with his eyes.

Mana Bomb

A bomb that explodes by burning Mana around it. The explosive power is increased in proportion to the amount of Mana around you. After the Mana Bomb explodes, the Mana in the surrounding area will burn and the magic will be unavailable for a short time.

This is it!

Like a novel or movie character, I had exactly what I needed in a situation that appeared.

‘Ugh... I don't know who that is, but thank you. ’

Items are ready to crush the slaver. All you have to do is keep up with the timing. Yooseong summoned a Mana bomb in the palm of his hand and hid it behind his back. Then I listened to the slaver and started timing.

“I'm sure you've explored the Isle of Angels, and you know there are more dungeons on this island than anywhere else. Don't you think?”

“Yes. Lots of dungeons. ”

“Even now, the number of hunters has increased a bit, and there are dungeons on Angel Island. That's why so many people died when the monster brake exploded. Including my family. ”

“Are you selling me a story? ”

“Selling stories? That's a little harsh. That's all you can say when you bring up a painful memory? ”

“My parents died during the monster break, too. But I'm not like you. Apparently, you're trying to blame the monsters and the dungeons for everything you've done. ”

Yooseong smiled and said to the slaver. The slaver who heard Yooseong's words shouted with a fierce fist, whether he was angry.

“It's not an excuse! It's true! You don't know me from abroad! If that monster brake goes off again, how many people are gonna die, not you! Do you know that? I had no choice but to kidnap people and shove them in the dungeon. If you don't do this, no one will come here! Hunters appear to protect the world after all. He must be sacrificed! What's wrong with sacrificing Hunters to protect the people of the island? Hundreds of Hunters can protect tens of thousands of islanders! Sacrifice cows for a great cause! You really don't understand that this is the way for everyone! ”

“It's true that Hunters have to protect people. ”

“You admit that. ”

“But what you said was right. Where the hell are you justifying this shit? You kidnapped hunters, imprisoned them, tortured them, and murdered them to protect the people? Then what the hell is a stable mine? What's this big fucking mansion? Horses are for the people of the island, but they're all for your self-interest. Am I wrong? ”

“What do you know! What do you know? ”

“I fucking know it. How much money is there in the Natural Horsestone Mine? I would have done anything to get to the stable mine by flipping my eyes! Honestly, you're just using this island to justify your personal greed. ”

The face of the slaver began to distort in the heavy facts of the incoming meteor.
