Hunter of the Perished World

[0038] Vegabond (1)

Gene doesn't say anything, because it's obvious that the hot, grumpy kid will squeak.

Leona eventually gets tired of the sheaves and walks silently. The sun makes my head ripe when I walk through the field, and the moisture that comes up when I climb the mountain changes my whole body.

The biggest enemy of Wandering is the environment before it is a monster.

"You don't get hot because you're half a machine?"

"No way."

"What? But you're not sweating."

"You have to resist sweating."

"Huh?"

Leona is stunned by Jean's peculiar sounds. He seemed to think that if he really endured it, he might not sweat.

"…… just kidding. Don't take it seriously. I can control unnecessary bioactivity."

"... my head is getting hotter."

Leona was running out of understanding in real time because of the heat. Whatever happened, Jean felt the need to change. The last battle left a hole in your chest and a hole in your coat, of course.

There is a way to tilt, but it's been a while since I've worn one of these.

Leona tears her clothing limb from the drum with a knife and quickly turns it into a crooked half-arm.

"Whew, that's better now."

"You'll regret this."

Jean says Leona shrugs.

"I always want to be happy now, because I'm happy enough now."

"Well..."

Leona throws away the torn branches of clothing and moves vigorously as if they were lighter.

"But it's not getting any hotter, is it?"

If so, Leona asked with a suicidal look. Gene looks up at the distant sky, checks the current atmosphere and wind and shakes his head.

"It's gonna get hotter in the next two days."

"Two more days?"

"Yeah. Well... I think it's going to rain in a couple of days."

Gene says almost certainty, and Leona tilts her head to see that.

"Shaman or man? Well, I wouldn't be surprised now."

"Hmm…. You can actually do a little bit of magic, but this is judgmental from experience that has nothing to do with magic."

"Are you sure it's going to rain?"

"Leaving something obvious...."

Gene shrugs.

"Looks like a hurricane's coming."

Gene hoped that if he got dizzy, he could reach a dizzy resting place within two days. Even if the environment did not have an impact, it would not be able to move against the winds and storms. Leona was reminded of the word storm.

"I actually flew away the other day and almost died."

Since it is a relatively light Leona, the wind speed seems to be blowing far enough away. In fact, Leona had more than one or two memories of almost being swept away by the wind whenever a violent storm blew through the wilderness.

The Earth's weather became even more horrifying.

Regrettably, the group's position was only in a few areas before the collapse, so there didn't seem to be any abandoned buildings or basements to hide their bodies.

"Hurry up... Let's go, man."

"Where are you going?"

"Anywhere!"

Male Leona starts walking loudly ahead of Jean.

I moved diligently, even though the storm was coming. Two days later, the day became blurred like a lie, and Leona almost cried out with a seizure when the prophecy of Gene that it was going to rain soon came true.

"Damn it! Why don't you have a building?"

I washed my eyes and looked, but I couldn't see the right building. There were only a few pieces of concrete or crumbs left.

"Well, this place is like that."

Jin was briefly overlooked by explaining the difference between South Korea and North Korea before its destruction, the regional division, and the extent of its development. It was obvious I wouldn't know.

After leaving Seoul, they had already entered the North Korean Peninsula and passed through the old DMZ into the old North Korean territory. Of course, unlike the properly constructed building, as well as the South Korean area, which left quite a trail of roads, it was a wilderness itself.

"I don't want a hurricane on the street floor...."

But every time there was a storm, he would sneak into the building and stay out of the storm. Leona's complexion pales as she imagines that she might become a star in the universe because of a hurricane.

As I was making progress, I noticed that the right cities and towns are quite rare in this area. There are human beings that need to be destroyed to survive. It was natural that there were no scraps to erect a rubbish wall here.

Gene looks at the data stored in the Darkbone and looks at the map before the apocalypse. There were some speculative places that might still be in the area.

"I don't know if it's a military facility."

I noticed that there was an old military facility within two days of walking. Leona leaps forward with the good news.

"Really? Awesome!"

"Come on, I don't want to walk with a kid in the wind."

As Gene walks ahead, Leona grins and cooks his side.

"You know I couldn't be honest with you?"

"That would be my charm."

"...... It's not secretly unfortunate."

After all, Gene captured the road to a military facility before it was destroyed.

Two days later, before it rained, the camp arrived at the targeted coordinates when the winds began to blow. Leona is afraid to tell you that Gene has arrived.

"... I don't have a damn thing!"

"Looks that way."

What was right in front of them was an army facility that collapsed even the bones of the great river. The building leaves only a trail, and nothing is right. The dense bush suggested that the area was looted a considerable time ago.

"... Well, if there was anything to rip off, it would have ripped off someone a long time ago."

Leona mutters desperately. Like I said, it was not surprising because there was a shortage of resources and supplies, so there was a chance that someone would dismantle a concrete or iron bone and tear it down long ago.

Whee!

The wind was already blowing fiercely, and the rain mixed in quickly.

"I shouldn't have torn my clothes..."

Leona bites her teeth to see if she regrets tearing her clothes because of the irritation caused by the heat. Jean kicked her tongue as if she knew it would, and Leona hated her attitude, but she had nothing to say.

"But I was happy for a while, right?"

Jean's pouting words made Leona look miserable.

"I'd like to be happy now, but if I'm unhappy now..."

Gene burst into laughter with such primitive thinking. Either way, Gin and Leona walk to a ruined military facility. Once everything was torn away, there was only one underground facility left to avoid the wind. We don't know if it's an underground barracks or some other building, but there's a staircase that leads down to the basement in the open space.

Jin said with a firm expression.

“You decide. ”

“Decide what? ”

“There is a choice to find another place to avoid the typhoon. It's going to rain a little, but it's not going to be a hurricane, and it's going to be better than here. ”

“Anything else? ”

“We can avoid a typhoon underground. But when the water's in the basement, we have to come back out. If we get out, we'll have to find another place to rest during the storm. ”

Both of them were at a lower level than the choice to drink pills. I don't know the size of the storm, but it was clear that if it rained, the underground water would flood. Leona considers for a moment, but hates choosing something.

Cough!

Thunder shook the earth as a terrifying flash engraved upon the green dusty sky.

Flash, flash, flash!

And after three more flashes of lightning in a row, Leona grabs Gin's arm. The storm is already approaching, and it's too late to escape.

“Yi, I think it's best to be safe now. ”

Leona goes down the Huddak steps and down to the basement, drawn by Gindo Leona. Shortly after going down to the dark basement, Leona realizes that her decision was very reasonable.

Locusts!

I could hear the sound of a tree breaking away from the rain as if the world were falling. The sound of the wind howling threatens all the way to the basement, and Leona shakes her head in horror.

And, of course,

Tugu, Tuk

Traces were leaking from the ceiling.

“Ugh! Ugh... I'm going to keep it... Wha!”

Leona hits the crown with a drop of water and looks up at the ceiling, but she only gets one more drop of water on her forehead. Even if you stack sandbags at the entrance, it's obvious that water will come in. But even if the water runs out, this basement should be able to withstand some of it.

"What's that smell, anyway?"

Leona snorts, frowning. Nurina, mixed with moisture, was vibrating throughout the basement. Gene was scouring the boiler room.

"Isn't there a monster?"

"What are you worried about? They won't get attacked anyway."

"That doesn't make a monster any better."

Leona grunts and Gin continues to search the basement. No, actually, there was an eerie smell of scoops in the basement.

Of course, these underground spaces serve as great nests for nesting monsters. That's why there are more monsters living in the city than in the wilderness, and this nest in the middle of the wilderness is naturally likely to be used as a strong nest of monsters.

Gene, however, was not particularly wary of the surroundings even though he smelled it.

'This doesn't smell like a kind of monster... There were many mixes.'

However, in the vibrating smells around here, gin can distinguish a number of other monsters.

'Corpse Hunter, Dirt Slime, Poisonous Dogs....'

He also checked for fur, dried mucus, bodily fluids, and blood. It's not unlikely that the monsters ate here, but because of the signs of predation, Jean did not smell a powerful monster that could dominate the place.

"What, did you get something?"

When Leona asks, Gene nods slowly.

"Looks like a disguise."

In the scent of gorgeous monsters, Gene finds holes in the deepest and lowest areas of the boiler room. The Lantern's light doesn't reach properly, so it's a hole you can only see if you keep your head down.

"Someone lives here, or lives here."

If you smelt the monsters' scent at the entrance, you can chase the monsters away, as well as the robbers who came in without knowing it. The smells collected here and there have been enormous odors.

"It's a common method for reclusive groups with few troops. If there is an entrance in Yagi, it might be better to disguise it as being found by monsters."

"Oh... Smart."

The inhabitants of this area would rather make a healthy underground nest of monsters and disguise it as a hideous nest of monsters. The dizzy ones will be deceived and the lesser monsters will run away and be terrified by the smell of other monsters shaking.

Of course, Gene's been dealing with a lot of monsters, but he's only got one curtain to cover his stomach.

"What are you going to do?"

Leona, of course, asked me if I was going to go in there or not. It almost seemed to maintain a scale that was hard to call a town, so it was easy to get in. There were many places where it was difficult to pay a fair price for a quest, and I've seen many places where such people appeal to hunters for recognition.

It's always been a pain in the ass.

"I'd rather stay here."

Leona sits on the floor as if there were no arguments, and she sits in the right place. We don't know how long it will take before the storm passes.

But until then, I had no choice but to hope that this basement would not be flooded.

Shoot me!

A thunderstorm is raging.

Either there's no sense of crisis about the storm, or it's the only time she thinks there's a chance. Leona boldly returns in a storm for a long time. Leona comes back as a wet rat, her head drains.

"Phew, it's nice to be able to wash up. I thought I was gonna die."

Leona washed the spare clothes and threw them away. There can't be enough water to wash it off, so Leona washes herself in the rain. Leona lies on a pile of stones in the boiler room dressed as if she were warm.

Taking a shower in a hurricane? Jean's thoughts seemed endless.

"… the muddy water is falling."

Leona mutters in despair, afraid of washing her face of dirt. Gene suddenly thought that Leona might have survived, even if she didn't have the witch's power. Leona suddenly woke up with something in mind, pulling out a knife and cutting her grown hair, and doing something restful and diligent.

Leona starts sharpening knives on flat concrete surfaces. The blade was sharpened half as much as the original blade. That knife was the only weapon that kept Leona from wandering the wilderness.

You've never learned how to sharpen a knife properly, but Leona is working hard with her knife in the water.

"Use this."

"Huh?"

Gene approached Leona like that and gave her a knife.

"You can't even chop vegetables with that now."

"That's a knife."

Jean gave it to Leona, the knife in the Leather Knife House. Usually it was used for chopping meat, but Gin had extra.

"Oh..."

Leona pulls the knife out of the sheath and doesn't want to be amazed. Well-maintained knife handles were surrounded by textured leather, and were just right for Leona to handle.

Above all, it was good to hide it in my body because it was small. Leona tucks the machete into a cloth bag and fills her waist with a knife collar that Jean gave her. Leona smiles widely to see if she likes the new sword.

"Thank you, sir."

"Don't rejoice one by one in scrap metal."

"Oh, I can see now that this is your charm."

Leona laughs at Jean's harsh words, and Jean goes back to her seat as if she were full. Leona stares at the newly received razor-sharp knives.

"I'll even show you how to sharpen a knife. Sharpening a knife like you can't last long because it hurts."

"Oh!"

I'll make you a hunter. Gene took that quest. I've already been paid. However, I was embarrassed to give that young one more firearms than a pistol, and at best I was able to teach him how to handle a knife.

Gene pulls out the millstone and shows you how to sharpen it slowly.

"Grab this part, so your hands don't cut...."

Gene showed me slowly sharpening the blade, and Leona was looking at the blade as if it had been lit in her eyes.

After teaching her how to sharpen a knife for a while, Leona nods satisfactorily and adds.

"I remembered. Yes, but I don't have the wheel."

"……."

"?"

I just realized that Gene had forgotten something very important.
