Hunter of the Perished World

After seeing Leona's face, Luwin slowly rises up and wipes the needle on her face with his hand.

“I know some people don't give in to these things. ”

There was a kind of man who could not be subdued by money and fear. Rather, people like Luwin knew best. Some value honor, some value ethics. And they can never be subdued.

Luwin has seen enough of these cases to bore him to death.

“But what should I do, kid? ”

“ ……. ”

“You're not the one I'm trying to subdue. ”

So whether you surrender and beg for help or not, Luwin made it clear that it has nothing to do with me.

“I know because I've done a lot of this. ”

Leona doesn't seem to respond as if she'd ignore it, but Luwin talks happily.

“The more I endured, the more I suffered. ”

Ruwin, who pointed out the ruthless fact that he couldn't do anything on his own will, was enjoying the feeling of a perfect winner.

District 7, 94, was the 7 District headquarters of a security company operated by Odin Corporation. The headquarters building was built on a large area and guarded like an iron box.

Gene was led down to the security company's basement.

Gene was not violent. Jean knew that if she did something wrong, Leona would come back dead. But I couldn't help it. The grim, aggressive demon-hunter was terrified enough to bore even those who didn't know him.

Capturing the security company as a negotiating place was great, and going underground was even better. It was expected to be a myriad of threats like this.

This place has a lot of weapons and troops, and if you do, you can blow up Jean and bury her alive.

The sixth floor of the basement, which is a negotiating place, was too deep underground, even if it was a security company. It was a place with very explicit intentions. Those who worked here were more likely to be responsible for Odin Corporation's dirty duties than their original security duties.

As the guards opened the door, a very bright room appeared. There was a huge window in the space that looked close to a single car, and across that window was Leona sitting in an electric chair and Mr. Odin standing next to her. On the right side of the window, a steel door was firmly locked.

“I thought you might come. ”

As Mr. Odin talks to the radio, you hear his voice from the speakers in Gene's room.

Leona shakes her head, not facing Jean, like a sinner. I had to. It was none other than Leona who lost herself in a trap that didn't have to come.

As Mr. Odin stares, the guards climb up through the straight path. I didn't want to share that with those tremblers because I might hear the secret of eternity.

“Things seem to have changed. ”

“ ……. ”

Gene wanted to smash that window and rip Mr. Odin's neck out right now. Gene quickly cleared his mind.

I couldn't break in. Even with the cognitive acceleration, it was a long way off, and he was able to kill Leona with a single push of a button.

No, if you use cognitive acceleration and then shoot off an NTW20 sniper rifle, you can pierce Mr. Odin's glabella through a glass that might be reinforced in front of you. No matter how fast his reflexes are, he won't be able to respond to bullets piercing his glabella faster than sound.

But what if he reacts if a 20mm round misses its trajectory while piercing the reinforcement glass? What if the intensity of the transparent wall in front of your eyes is too high to penetrate?

While the possibilities and possibilities of numerous attempts and failures are repeated in Gin's head for only a few seconds and disappear.

Hunters judge.

No, no, no.

Looking at Leona, who can't even look up to her sins.

I realize.

‘I don't want you to die. ’

He realizes that Leona is stuck in his heart like a stake. Dozens of negative possibilities pass through my mind, even attempting a little adventure, so that I don't want to take even the slightest risk.

I realize that the idea of never wanting to lose Leona dominates my whole body. In this absurd situation, Gene feels so deeply.

It's not that I don't want to lose something again.

It's not that I don't want to lose the opponent who gave me a hard time again because I've lost so much.

I just don't want to lose her.

Whatever it takes.

No matter what it costs!

“Let's not drag it too long. ”

Luwin, as if he didn't want to talk for long, said lightly.

“What's the eternal secret? If you tell him the truth, he's willing to release as many of you as he wants. ”

Of course Jean knows that such words are lies. If I knew the secret of immortality, I would not have let Leona live to hear it.

Although immortality may be for all, these peoples want that privilege to remain only for themselves. So it is clear that the same outcome will wait.

That's foolish. He won't let her go until he gets the right answer, and if he gets the right answer, he'll kill her.

Gene is forced to do both in situations where there is no foolish choice.

“There's something you need to keep in mind. ”

“What is it?”

“My immortality is quite limited. I can give it to someone, but knowing that doesn't mean that someone else can. ”

“What do you mean? ”

“So, what you're taking from me is a one-on-one exchange. It doesn't matter if someone else finds out. ”

“Hmm…. ”

Luwin is lost in thought. It was not difficult to understand what that meant. It means to bring the immortality of others, not from the land of immortality.

Soon, Gene gave up his immortality meant his death.

Gene said in a clear voice.

“Eat my heart. ”

“Hmm?"

“! ”

“Then you will have the power of the Darkborn and be immortal. This is how the Demon Hunter takes over. ”

We need Chip, but it shouldn't be that hard to find Chip as chairman of the Odin Corporation.

Leona flashes at the fact that the Darkborn's succession is that way, and Luwin frowns as if there were any such barbaric ways.

“The Dark Bone? I don't know what it is.... So I'm gonna be a demon-hunter? ”

“Yes. Even a demon-hunter who doesn't hunt demons is all yours." Even if you're a businessman with that power, it doesn't matter. ”

“That's fascinating. ”

Luwin didn't think the Demon Hunter would lie for my life.

“No! ”

Leona screams like lightning.

“Eat my heart. And let her go. Right now.”

Gene said as if he was going to cut my heart out and cut my chest right now. The expressions of boldness did not appear to be someone who was prepared to die.

“No! No! Don't! Don't! ”

Leona shakes her head, her eyes turning red. Leona didn't think Jean would make that choice.

“I'll die! I'll just die! Don't do it! Please, please, please! ”

Leona exclaims in a frenzied, twisted voice. But Jean never responded to what Leona said.

It's like he's already made up his mind. There was no regrets on Jin's face. He pledges that he can give up his life to save Leona.

“When you leave here, go where the armored car is. And meet Ramfil. ”

“No!”

“The demon hunt is over. ”

Gene casually said that in front of death. It was too dry to make a will, and there were no feelings in it. But that's the kind of horse where emotions are so strongly embedded.

When Leona was about to have a seizure, Luwin briefly said.

“This is a bad move. Can I knock him out?" Let me go like this, but I don't think I'll be on my way. ”

“You'd better do it. ”

If he could survive, he was willing to let him pass out from electroshock. Even if Leona knows about immortality, she won't give up her Darkbone anyway.

There's no reason to kill Leona. Luwin smiles bitterly.

“Then do as you will. ”

Cock, cock!

Jiaying!

“Hrrrgh!”

Leona sits in an electric chair, staring at her whole body shaking like a thorn bush.

Despite the feeling of stifling his chest, Jean did not show her emotions with her expression. Seeing Leona's tears burn, Gene grips his teeth.

I wondered if it was the right choice.

Leona grips her teeth in the agony of losing consciousness.

incapable.

I didn't want to be an ankle-grabber. So I didn't try to bleed, but I didn't mean to get stronger, but I just wanted to be together.

Leona grits her teeth for blood in a tumultuous rage that seems to evaporate.

Survival is no longer important.

If we don't live together, it's meaningless. Just breathing, just eating, and surviving means nothing to Leona now.

But to do that, what did you do?

Others might judge Leona's behavior as effort. But the important thing is the results.

After all, she is powerless, so she has to watch the people she really cares about die for her, and is merely a lure for threats.

If you value something, you should never use that precious mind!

Leona fell in love with that idea as if she were self-taught.

I was just using it. It's like Gene thinking about himself, and Ramfil just leaning on his mind to think about himself. He was just like the child he laughed at.

No, at least those kids don't bait their parents' hearts.

Leona gripped her teeth in order not to lose her mind, struggling with misery, helplessness, guilt, and disgust.

“Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh... Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhu! ”

Sadness for this situation brings tears, and disgust for itself brings laughter. Laughs at himself, weeps for Jean. Pass out and it's over. If you pass out, you will be lured outside by someone and Jean will die.

All I can do now is open my eyes as if I were trying to stay calm.

‘Help me! ’

Leona stiffens her tongue and says something she can't shout.

One more time! One more time! Help me! '

“Huh-huh-huh-huh! Huhuhuhuhu!”

Just like you did back then.

Just like the one that tore down the Free City itself.

You said I was a witch! I thought you said I was a monster! Then ask for the power of a monster! ’

In those days when they were hated and banished, they thought that they would have the power of a witch if they were to be sold.

"If I'm the Devil, don't be unfair! ’

And Leona is as eager to be tied to a flag as she was to wait for the day of her death. I didn't want to die then.

But now, I don't want anyone to die.

Dwarf!

“What, what? ”

Luwin suddenly begins to tremble in the space around him, and freezes. Gene twists his eyebrows, looking at the scene.

When Luwin felt abnormal and the electrical shorts were raised to lethal levels.

"Please help me, you bastards! ’

Dwarf!

In Leona's eyes, a sparkle of Borat glows.

“Huhhhhhhh!”

Boom, boom, boom!

The overwhelmingly sized psychic waves blow up both the electric chair and Luwin.

Gene stares at the glass in front of his black eyes. The space in front of the eyes was shaking, and there was no movement on this side.

It's obvious.

What I saw in front of my eyes was just a picture of the camera illuminating, not a space in front of me. In fact, it was somewhere else that Leona was trapped. You'd want to bury Gin in the first place, but it didn't make sense to have Luwin in that space. Although it was a simple deception, Gene was able to quickly see the reality of what looked like reinforced glass in this space and in front of him as he calmed down the initial urgency and slowly thought.

‘It's a gamble. ’

Gene was prepared to sacrifice anything to save Leona.

However, the choice to sacrifice his life there was far, far away.

‘As expected, it was Leona who broke the poem. ’

Kung, Kung!

Gene hears the sound of something falling down deep underground, and notices that Leona is not far away. Now is not the time to be a wolf.

He knew more than anyone that something irreversible was going to happen.

Gene takes a quick detour down the stairs, and one of his new hands holds an automatic shotgun.
