Hunter of the Perished World

[132] Enemies in the Jungle (3)

Whether they followed me or not, Gene was passionate about his work.

“Four times... Then I think we have a problem. ”

“Yes, so I'm scraping everything I have to prepare the mosquitoes. ”

That's why there were no supplies available for mosquito control in the area. Gene realized the cause.

“The climate is not so hot, but there are mosquitoes everywhere around here, so it's a living hell. Monsters, not only beasts, but also mosquitoes. ”

The mosquito swarm was definitely severe enough for the beast to die.

‘Do I have to assume that the mosquitoes I just saw were actually less crowded because of Leona…. ’

The synagogue seemed to think that mosquitoes were a serious threat to this area. I had a good idea of what they were praying to Obelisk about.

“Now that I've got a lot of baby bat poop, I can go hunting, but at this rate, I don't know if I'll be in any danger. Oh, I said useless things to the pilgrims... ”

The High Septon hurriedly closes his mouth to see if he thought he had said useless things.

Obviously, if you apply Bat dung to your body and go hunting, you can get food, but if you go outside without applying Bat dung, you might actually die by sucking a lot of blood on the mosquito.

Gene thought it was almost certain.

‘Soon. ’

The moment the mosquito preparations disappeared, the area would be attacked by mosquitoes, and that was the day all of Sorwin died. This silence and godliness today was a kind of self-sustaining tranquility for those who had not yet faced the crisis.

I don't think it's going to work at all. All anyone has to do is pray for the oddly large number of mosquitoes that keep the bat dung on fire.

No matter how much I met Jean, I didn't recognize her.

“Just in time for something we need. ”

“Oh, what is it? If you can afford it.... ”

“I need some baby bat poop. ”

However, his expression solidified. Now, Aegol Bat dung was the most needed item in this neighborhood. Since I asked for such a big head, maybe it was natural to express the color.

But what was even worse was what came next.

“Yes, if you need a pilgrim... I can't give you much, but I can give you a couple of days. We're sorry we don't have enough room. ”

He knew it was very necessary, but he said he could give it to the pilgrims as much as he wanted. Even though the only reliable evidence that these three people were pilgrims was the sunset prayer that Jin showed them, the synagogue believed Jean's words.

Religion is so strange, Leona thought.

“I'm not just asking for it. ”

“Yes? Then…. ”

“I have a little skill, so I know how to eradicate mosquitos around here. If you eradicate mosquitoes, you won't need baby bat poop, so I want you to give me that. ”

If there were mosquitoes on the journey ahead, it would not be a bother, and they would not be able to sleep properly. The words made his face visible.

“Are you sure? Is there any way to do that? ”

“It's not that hard. ”

It was just impossible to use when marching.

First of all, he doesn't seem to know that mosquitoes are classified as a kind of monster.

If the monster looked exactly like an ordinary animal and exhibited the same behavior, there was virtually no way to distinguish it. When I saw that the mosquito in Gindo didn't actually bite Leona, I realized that it was a monster.

“Then I can give you as much as you want. ”

Jin was neither a dusk Christian, nor a hunter in direct violation of the law of no killing for monsters. There are many cases where there are no chips with the characteristics of those who don't hunt monsters.

“Is there anything I can do to help? ”

“Prepare two cauldrons, one with water to boil and the other with just water. I just need a bigger pot of water. ”

“I understand.”

He nods coldly without asking what to use it for. And seeing Jin catch one job in a heartbeat, the other two said it was absurd.

“Ouch... Well, Dad's gonna get a commission from the Devil, too. ”

As Leona shakes her head, Gene grins.

“I think I actually got a request from you. ”

Gene remembered that time very well.

‘Make me a hunter. ’

I don't know if he actually said that. Leona smiles awkwardly when she hears that.

“Well, that's true. ”

In fact, I, the Devil, commissioned Jean. Leona smiles awkwardly as she brings out the word "father."

The reward doesn't have to be chips, which is ridiculous, but Aegol Bat dung was the most needed item for the group.

“How are you going to eradicate all these mosquitos? I can't spark enough to cover this forest. ”

Ramfil shakes his head as if he didn't know what Jean was thinking.

“Make pesticides. ”

The two who don't know what that sounds like still tilt their heads.

It would take them a long time to learn all the knowledge the Demon Hunter possesses.

Most of what I did in New Hong Kong was almost defensive work. Even here, Leona had to seriously consider the nature of the hunter. Gene gets the caterpillar bat poop, soaks it slightly in water and applies it to his clothes. The area was safe, but there was no need to struggle because it was obvious that the mosquitoes would be attracted to the outside.

Ramfil accepts Gene's bat poop and looks away.

“... Is this really necessary? ”

“If you're going to spend a year catching mosquitoes again, you don't have to put it on. ”

“ ……. ”

In the end, Ramfil chose the way to apply bat dung to his body rather than squeezing mosquitoes. It was definitely a site that lost a lot of chip energy in the body while frying sparks. Leona glances at them with a gentle smile.

“Ugh, the smell of poop. ”

Leona, of course, teased Ramfil as much as she wanted because she didn't have to apply bat poop.

“Don't. ”

“Don't talk to me like that, you stink of shit on your mouth. ”

“I told you not to. ”

“Ugh. Ugh... ”

Oh, shit!

“Aah!”

Eventually, Leona was struck by a honeymoon and cried out in tears.

“You crazy bastard! Don't hit me!”

“Don't do it. Don't do it. ”

Ramfil with poop on his body was quite low pressure. Leona laughs bitterly after getting hit by the honeymoon, and Gene smiles at them.

He poses as a fake brother, and he looks like a pretty decent brother, judging by the way he fights. Ramfil tries to ignore it, but Leona grunts from time to time.

“Ramfil tries to solve everything with his fist. That's bad.”

Leona speaks with audacity as if she were teaching a gesture.

“Why choose another option instead of an easy and quick solution? ”

“I really enjoyed it. ”

Leona sighs bitterly, looking at her son, who was mistakenly raised.

“Shut up. Let's go. Before the smell of shit clears up. ”

“ ……. ”

Ramfil looks at Gin as if she were a monster.

“So bold, I have nothing to say. ”

Leona bursts into laughter.

Gene comes back out into the woods and searches the area. Gene gave a sack to Ramfil, which he obtained from his quarters.

“I will gather the plants. A total of three plants are to be collected. One is this.”

Gene points to a purple plant that looks like a drop on a rotten wooden column.

“What is this? Flowers?”

As Leona tries to take her hand, Gene grabs it and blocks it from reaching out.

“Don't touch it lightly. This is a poison mushroom called the Pomegranate Mushroom. ”

“Poison mushrooms?”

“Yes, if I touch it wrong, my hands are numb. If a kid like you touches her, she could be in danger. ”

Leona was tired of saying that mushrooms that looked like purple droplets were actually dangerous. However, Gene told Leona not to touch it, and she pulled the mushroom out and put it in her sack.

Gene and Ramfil were immune to this kind of poison, so gathering was done by both of them.

And then I looked at Ramfil.

“Do you remember?”

“Of course.”

“We will mix three kinds of poisonous herbs to make pesticides. That's one of them, and luckily, there's plenty of vegetables around here, so it shouldn't be too hard to find. ”

Gin digs through the forest, finding other plants and putting them in her sack. Surprisingly, the mosquito disappears when it sneaks around. The effects of the mosquito repellent were that obvious.

“This is a poison called civil war. It's not dangerous to touch, but eating it can damage your nerves and cause you to die instantly. ”

A new type of vegetation that arose after its destruction was harmless, but it was deadly and contained many poisons that had never been poisoned. Gene pulled out the leaves with the shape of a parachute and put them in his sack.

Finally, it was like frog rice floating on mud collected by Gin. Unlike the floating part above, the roots stretched long.

“This is called rehearsal. It's not poisonous, but I need it. Put this in the other sack. You remember everything, don't you?"

“I memorized it.”

“Then scrape it as far as you can see. ”

Fearful of falling horses, Ramfil begins to traverse the forest at a fierce speed. Every time he finds something, he snatches it like lightning and puts it in his sack. Leona laughs helplessly as she looks at the raging ramfil as if it were a hunt.

“Ramfil is a waste of his strength. ”

“Let's say you're passionate about the little things. ”

Gene smiles in relief. Leona walks behind Gene, who walks ahead. Following that, Leona remembers Jean's words not long ago.

"Don't worry. It won't happen again. ’

After that, Gene doesn't want to leave her by her side. Normally, I would have left them alone, but Gene took Leona out to the forest.

Leona knew exactly what that meant.

Thanks to Gene's heart, I couldn't help feeling guilty on the one hand.

Gene walked through the woods with Leona like a stroll, and it was still warm but not mosquitoes, so it was comfortable. Naturally, the environment is satisfied when you go through the worst and become a bad situation. Leona doesn't bite herself, but her expression improves as the mosquito disappears.

Gin walks casually, but takes a close look around. She gathers without missing a single thing.

“I don't think you know anything. ”

“Not really. ”

“Don't be modest. It doesn't suit me.”

Leona had a lot of conversations with Gin and could only fathom how much knowledge Gin had in the convenience of that conversation. Since it's been so long since I've been free, Leona asked me about things.

“Did you live well in the old days? ”

“More than now.”

“I don't know how much better it is now. ”

Gene pondered for a moment. How can we tell them about the pre-apocalyptic life?

It wasn't that hard to answer.

“The most terrible and unforgivable crime was murder, and those who committed it were punished. ”

“Who's punishing you? The family of the dead? Something like that?”

“No, personal vengeance is forbidden. The state punished those who violated the law. If you think about it, the Holy Father will punish you. ”

“How do you get punished? Are you dying?"

Gene laughed as if it were fun to think about.

“I put sinners in prison and gave them shelter, clothing, and food. ”

“…… it's a prize, right? ”

Leona opens her mouth to say, "What's the punishment?"
