Hunter of the Perished World

Hunters think.

‘The enemy is seven. Judging by the look on their faces, they must be the ones the client told you about. ’

Armed with a high-powered rifle, 5.56 millimeter grenade. ’

"This is an impossible bolt action model. ’

‘There are no other specific abnormalities. ’

‘Obviously, this place is poorly armed. ’

‘I have the advantage in the distance. ’

‘They seem to have left their guns unattended, so there's not much of a crisis. ’

‘Maybe you're not used to gun fights. ’

Hunters judge.

‘A shooting from this distance should be enough. ’

"5.56mm. Seven feet is the best. ’

‘If we get it right, we'll need some ammo. ’

‘Noise-cancelling capabilities are sufficient. ’

‘We have high altitudes, so we have enough tactical advantage. If they're hiding, we can move and shoot them. ’

Heave-ho!

The hunter quickly prepares. They were enjoying their festival without noticing the coming shadow of death.

Ripping people apart.

Ping!

The moment the wind holes in a colleague's head, they don't even recognize what's happening in front of their eyes for a moment.

Bam!

And as a late gunshot approaches, a hole in the other head opens up.

“Shots fired!"

Until then, everyone woke up, but unfortunately, there were only a few trees and junk wagons to cover them. The noise machine made it difficult to predict the exact direction of the gunfire, and it was already after the third and fourth headaches flew off in their own way.

“Over there!”

A slater recognizes the location of the attack, shouting urgently. Everyone hides behind a junk wagon or a tree.

Zec!

The slatters have pinpointed the shooting position, but have not been able to locate the sniper. That's why they didn't even know the sniper was already moving.

The sniper quickly turns a large ridge and grabs the side of the enemy's cover. The enemy remains stationary in the shadows, holding his gun but unable to look around.

Ping!

One more down.

“That's not it! ”

Ping!

And one of the last two men fell down again. And the last survivor decides something, watching his friends die in an instant.

Rrrrrr! Brrrrrrrrr!

You board the junk wagon in an instant, then start it up and make your way out of here. I was already frightened and unable to make a rational decision when I turned my head down.

Bang!

And the sniper, who does not intend to allow for that brief gap, punctures the head of the last slater equally.

A new silence settled at the place where the feast was held. At 300 meters, the sniper slowly reveals himself and slowly descends to the scene of the silent slaughter.

When the hunter arrives on site, he pulls out his dagger and cuts off the dead slaters' ears one by one. Hunting requires evidence, and when the target is a small monster or a human, the ear is often used as evidence.

The hunter who cut off all his ears with a familiar grip searches Slater's corpse and cargo for ammunition.

“What the hell are they doing living here? ”

Whew. After a sigh, the hunter wipes off the sweat bubbles while moving quickly.

The hunter cuts off the ears of seven corpses and puts them in his sack. This easily solved the 100-chip quest, with 30 5.56mm rounds.

“Shit... When will I be back...? ”

The hunter sighs long enough to turn back.

Obviously, the hunter is quite small enough to handle a long march.

No, I grew up a little bit, but I still had a vague figure to call an adult.

And the hunter's gaze lingers on the junk wagon for a moment. Hopefully, we'll be back in no time.

However, the hunter's gaze did not stay in the junk wagon for long.

The word "wanderer" or "hunter" didn't suit the little hunter.

Hunter Girl.

Leona starts walking back the way she came.

Regal City of Liberty.

Located on the White Nile River tributary, the Free City was the largest free city nearby, and there were abundant supplies thanks to its interaction with numerous surrounding points.

Leona is on the African continent, also in old South Sudan.

Leona arrived at her residence as an inn and tavern with a client. As soon as I arrived, I mixed in with the typical buzzing sound of the tavern, and many people spoke.

“I can't get rid of the liquor because it's cheap these days... ”

“Did you hear that? I heard the group is crossing the Northern Desert... ”

“The price of scrap metal is no joke. Reactor value has increased too much.... ”

The place where many rumors were gathered and spread was a good place for Leona to stay and get information. But this was not the purpose of information gathering.

Leona reaches out to the client occupying a corner of the tavern and pours out her collected ears. The client looks at them with a dazed look.

“Ver, I already... It's over?”

“I don't need a politician, so just pay me back. ”

However, the client was surprised to think that this little hunter didn't actually solve the quest in two days. A client from Lugra Point south of the free city of Rigal didn't seem to believe that the quest had been resolved so quickly.

Obviously, he was suspicious when he came to the Free City for a quest, since the hunter in charge of the quest was a little boy.

“Oh, no... But it's still too fast... ”

“This is the first time you've seen Leona. ”

The bartender at the tavern bursts into laughter.

“Leona is the best hunter in Regal. Go out there and grab anybody and ask. ”

“No, I've heard rumors too... Don't you think the credit is off.... ”

“Hey, mister. ”

Leona frowns and pulls out the revolver as the client appears reluctant.

“You shouldn't be different from when people clean. You shouldn't have let him in if you didn't have credit. ”

Leona grunts as if she were going to put a bullet in his forehead right now, and he's sweating cold.

“Kid... No, hunter. Doesn't it actually make sense? After you killed those slatters that left Lugra Point a week ago and came back here in two days, isn't it suspicious how you found them? How the hell did you find them? ”

Leona eventually throws a metal gun out of his bag at his feet, demanding proof.

“You can pick it up from your neck, but I don't like it. They used it instead, so if you want to believe it or not, don't believe it. ”

Lougra Point, clearly unarmed, has been kidnapped by a frightened iron gun. That is why I will come to the Free City of Rigal to seek revenge.

The client glances at the iron gun and stares at Leona.

“If you say you don't believe.... What happens?”

“Hmm…. Let me tell you something good. ”

Leona grins.

Leona could no longer be called a child. That's why even though Leona was petulant, she was able to smile quite glamorously.

“Hunters never lose their pay. ”

Whether you believe it or don't believe it, you will be paid for it. Consider what it will be like to receive it.

As always, Leona and her client have been busy with reparations. It was one of the interesting spectacles.

The bartender throws his head as soon as the client looks up.

“Careful, my friend. When Leona just got here, she wasn't the only one missing without a rattlebird trying to get her paycheck. ”

It meant that the client had to put down the payment quietly. Apparently, rumors of a very good hunter are spreading around Rigal, even as he hears.

While the client has been waiting for Leona here for two days, I've heard a lot about Leona being a cheeky and rough, but not a scamming hunter. Not only this tavern, but the streets as well.

“By any chance... Those who were taken.... ”

Leona's expression hardens as the client hesitates to ask.

“I tend to bring in survivors when I'm on the job. ”

Leona asked if this was the right answer, and the client asked nothing more.

“Yes... Well done.Later... Come when you need something.... Don't.”

“Mister.”

Leona turns her back and throws a metal gun to the floor at the walking client.

Tuk

“Take it.”

Oh, fuck!

Then he approached the client and handed him three 5.56 millimeter rounds.

“I don't know how to shoot it, but there are moments when it helps. ”

Leona relaxes and smiles at her client.

The client glanced at Leona with a complex expression after handing over the Iron Gun, which he thought would be taken as his loot.

“Well, thank you. I'm sorry I doubted... I'm sorry.”

He steps out of the tavern in a daze with a rubber gun. The bartender and the guests were delighted to see the scene.

“As expected, Leona is attracted to not being honest. ”

“You're wrong if you think I'm going to put up with all that nasty nonsense. ”

Leona goes up to the inn, threatened and exhausted.

Leona has been in Rigall, the free city, for half a year now.

In Rigal, Leona's nickname was quite eerie, unlike the oddly cosmic atmosphere just before.

Leona the Human Hunter.

I don't hunt monsters, but I've been known to hunt only humans.

Leona comes back to her room and lies in bed.

‘I need to wash up in the river tonight. ’

I moved around so much that I didn't want to endure the feeling of switching. If it's nighttime, no one will be watching, so I'll sneak out and kill him at dawn.

Two years have passed since the devastation in India.

The black dragon flew over and dropped Leona in the middle of Africa. As soon as it's not too far away, Leona flies too hard to see if she thinks she's going back there and drops her off too far away.

The Black Dragon became inactive by flying long distances, and became smaller and smaller, like a black ball with a fist.

He didn't even react for a month.

Leona, who was suddenly thrown into Africa, had to make a move to survive without knowing where this place was. I searched and searched for people, tried to mistakenly enter Slater House into town, and escaped several times.

However, most people in the world were not interested in where the land mass they lived on was located on the continent.

No one knew what this place was, but only the name of the town.

In a hypothetical way, the Black Dragon started to move in a month, and it was almost like a slime that only gave off a sense of convenience.

Leona had to live as a hunter because she needed weapons and chips to survive again. Jean's marksmanship, AKM, and 120 5.56 mm rounds were all Leona had.

After a year of exploring the continent, Leona realized that it was Africa and that she had reached the point in the old Congo.

After two years, I didn't think Gene would still be in India. However, I could not even expect to be near this area beyond the desert.

Of course, after two years, the Black Dragon has regained its original power and is not with Leona right now.

‘It's nice to live here.... ’

The frequency of MCP in Africa was low, so it was not severely exposed to nuclear bombings at the time of mass confusion. That's why there were many intact buildings, and since the resources were lacking in the first place, firearms and weapons were also quite rare. That's why a point was hit by a sletter gun with seven slatters.

That's why it was quite difficult to get ammunition, but Leona was able to do her job with relatively low weapons.

There's slatters everywhere, and people want revenge for slatters.

Leona was able to complete the quest very quickly and accurately just by using empathy, if you were tasked with hunting monsters instead of hunting humans.

There was no other reason not to hunt monsters.

Since the war in India, Leona has been reluctant to kill monsters.

It was hard for Leona to handle the desperate psychotic waves of monsters that were killing and killing each other by her command.

It was beyond simple guilt that I felt like I was going to collapse.

Even because of her own diminishing sensation, Leona tried not to use it if she even cared about empathy and domination. It was Leona's wish to remain human, and in the case of Ashfile, it was a wise choice.

Leona lies in bed staring up at the ceiling dazed.

“Jin... Lamfil…."

It was a name I hadn't thought of in two years. Every time I thought of the name, Leona felt uneasy.

Maybe they're both not from this world.

I don't think he's doing anything right now.

Whenever I think about it, Leona's desire for life fades.

If he were dead, Leona struggling now would all have been for nothing. I don't know which wilderness I'm trying to find until I die.

She's a bitch.

If Gene had been alive for two years, he would have tried to find himself.

But Jean didn't come, and every time I think about it, Leona falls into endless depression.

Because I know better than anyone that this attempt to sail through a sea of darkness and find only one reef will eventually return to nothing.

It's just a long way to go.

It took me a while to find it because it was too far and too far away.

You just have to stay alive. The Demon Hunter will surely come looking for himself.

You have to believe that.

That way we can live now.

Leona wakes up obsessively.

It's not a good time to sleep.

Let's go out for a little walk.
