Auto Hunting With My Clones - Chapter 124

< Toward Cheongchuleoram (1) >

“No, you know that Junyoung and I are close. It was a request for my close brother, and I thought Tronsa would be reliable for some reason…”

“You are calling that an excuse now! I said that dealing with Tronsa was dangerous. I didn’t! uh!”

Hyesung Shin shouted.

The office rang loudly as if the mana had been loaded.

Shin Jin-wook was instantly frightened by the tremendous sound and pressure.

he replied, giggling.

“I did…”

“But this bastard didn’t say anything to Evie! You’re going to be 30 years old and work like that! uh! I ate it with my butthole!”

“…no. sorry.”

The appearance of a son who is distracted and intimidated.

Shin Hye-seong, who had been screaming in anger, also felt sorry for a part of his heart when he saw his son’s drooping shoulders.

‘…Did I kill the baby too much.’

He always had some thoughts like that.

The son who grew up under the shadow of himself, the No. 1 hunter in Korea.

‘At that time, I strongly pushed him to raise him like a tiger.’

A period of cataclysm.

He was a young son at the time, but since he was the only son, he treated him more strictly in order to raise him better than anyone else.

And as a result, Shin Jin-wook was raised as an elite.

However, the son became more passive and tended to find himself difficult as a father.

‘I was hoping he would jump over me… but I was wrong.’

As a result, this is also his own fault for wrongly educating his children.

That’s why Hyesung Shin calmed down and asked quietly.

“…it’s done. So, how many DEPs did you buy for that bastard, Kang Joon-young?”

“There are 10 of them.”

“Ten… they bought me a lot. Whew… Got it. I will find out.”

“All right. thank you father.”

After speaking, Shin Jin-wook bowed his head and left the office.

A businesslike attitude devoid of affection between father and son.

Shin Hye-sung sighed as if he was in trouble.

“It’s like having one child… All of them are my karma. It’s karma.”

While grumbling like that, he was already calling someone through his smart goggles.

It was Jackie Chang, a broker who connects Tron’s unlicensed products from the back world.

Touuu- Touuuu-

Jackie Chang connected right away after calling.

-Hello, Chairman Shin. Long time no see. What are you doing?

Jackie Chang asked about business in slightly awkward but quite fluent Korean.

He looked like a robot when he immediately asked for a business.

‘This bastard is always very rigid.’

Shin Hye-sung thought so, but went straight to the point.

“Long time no see. It’s nothing else, I heard last time my son bought something called DEP.”

– Yes, that’s right. Since Chairman Shin is a guest, we gave a special discount. Is there any problem?

“yes. I’ve run into a bit of a problem. Do you know the Korean news this time? Kang Joon-young, the murderer…”

Shin Hye-sung explained about Kang Joon-young and DEP.

My son bought DEP and gave it to Jun-Young Kang, but it was said that Jun-Young Kang was causing a stir in Korea after eating DEP.

-Oh… So you’re saying that the case has something to do with us? DEP-001 has absolutely no such side effects.

“But, as you can see, isn’t there any reason why a normal hunter with a promising future would suddenly turn into a killer? Even if it’s not the case, the situation will become more noisy if Kang Jun-young is caught and tested and becomes known about DEP. I contacted you because I wanted to prevent the aftermath in advance.”

-Hmm, I’m sure it is.

Jackie Chang understood and agreed.

-All right. Actions may be needed, but I’ll check.

“yes. Also, please keep the history of my son’s purchase of DEP confidential.”

-That’s for sure.

pop.

So the phone was disconnected.

Shin Hye-sung sighed.

‘Anyway, a broker. Even if we take action, there must be a limit to what we can do.’

He didn’t expect much from Jackie Chang.

What power does the secret broker have to solve this?

I just contacted him to ask for that part because all he wanted was to hide his connection with his son.

Now, serious action must be taken by him.

‘Hmm, should I call the directors after all? I can’t help it.’

Hyesung Shin recalled the directors of the Hyeseong Guild.

These days, they are the ones who choose what to do, but they treat them carelessly, but they can entrust everything to them.

True allies who have done all sorts of dirty things with him since Cataclysm.

They look a little incompetent, but I didn’t put them on the board for nothing.

Shin Hye-seong immediately called the secretary.

-Yes, Captain.

“Chief Yoon is calling a board meeting right now, so tell everyone to come to the meeting room in 10 minutes.”

-yes. All right.

After the call, Shin Hye-seong buried herself deeply in the chair.

The power of action to destroy everything that gets in the way for one’s own benefit.

That made Shin Hye-seong, the leader of the current No. 1 guild in Korea.

And now.

His eyes were shining brightly.

Just like the appearance of Shin Hye-sung at that time.

‘Junyoung Kang… I’m sorry, but I have to die for my son.’

But until then he didn’t know.

Unexpected Jackie Chang… And the fact that there is a movement happening in Tron as well.

* * *

Sang-woo handed Kang Jun-young over to the police in the meat ginseng dungeon.

After idling around at home for a while, he was getting ready to go out to meet his friend, Kyung-do, when he saw the breaking news again.

‘Junyoung Kang ran away?’

Looking at the video of the incident attached to the internet article, Kang Joon-young tore down the roof of the crumpled car and flew around, emitting electricity all over his body.

Seeing this, Sang-woo was dumbfounded.

‘What’s the matter? this.’

In fact, Sang-woo believed the words of the hunter task force police officers who were leading him, saying that he could not use his abilities if he wore restraints.

‘But he trusted me too much.’

It’s a B-class hunter, but it was led by police officers from Awakeners who were at most C to D-class levels, so there was a chance that there would be danger.

But what can I do?

‘It’s none of my business anyway, so what? I’ll take care of it.’

He was not an enemy of Kang Jun-yeong, and there was no reason to find and catch him.

Of course, at the level of social morality, I could go around catching that crazy guy.

‘Well, if the police ask me to catch it, then I’ll have to help.’

Around the time Sang-woo thought he had to keep an eye on the trend until then.

He learned one thing.

‘uh? Kang Jun-yeong, does he use electric power as it is?’

Sang-woo paid attention to the incident video.

Kang Joon-young flees and an electric light burns on his body.

Even though he brought Kang Jun-young’s ability, ‘Electric Power’ as a stigma of jealousy, Kang Jun-young’s electric power did not seem to make much difference.

‘Didn’t I steal his ability with the stigma of jealousy?’

Sang-woo was puzzled.

If you look at the abilities of Envy registered in the system,

───────────────

《Envy of Envy》

It is an alter ego that has been eroded by jealousy.

You can use ‘Stigma of Jealousy’ to determine the target of jealousy.

Greatly increases stats when fighting targets marked with jealousy.

When fighting a target branded with jealousy, you can gradually gain abilities from the target.

You can activate Mana Break, which prevents nearby mana from being absorbed and continuously drains mana.

───────────────

It was stated that ‘ability is gained little by little’ from the target marked with jealousy.

And Sang-woo understood that this was taking away his ability.

‘Couldn’t it be stealing the ability?’

What if you’re not stealing it, but just copying some of your abilities onto yourself?

A momentary realization crossed Sang-woo’s mind.

‘If that’s the case…’

If that’s the case, Sang-woo has something he wants to do right now.

He immediately connected to Raven and his clone in training.

Then another sight popped up in his image.

It was an indoor gym where I trained with Master Raven.

[Sub-space]

He immediately opened the sub-space and sent his alter ego Envy there.

Envy had just dealt with Kang Jun-young in the Namsan Park Meat Ginseng Dungeon and moved to another hunting ground to hunt with Grootney.

“Master!”

And Sang-woo, who connected to his alter ego with Envy next to him, suddenly called Raven.

-What’s going on?

Raven was used to this situation because Sang-woo, who was normally quiet, would suddenly connect to his alter ego and talk about it.

Maybe that’s why Raven asked nonchalantly.

“Do you want to play sparring?”

– Dalian? Didn’t you just do it?

Raven pointed around with the tip of her chin.

There, bloody clones were sitting on the floor and recovering by using their own heal skills.

It seemed that Raven, too, swung his sword quite a bit, believing in the hardness of his alter egos.

-It’s a bit difficult these days because your alter egos have become stronger.

And as the clones continued to grow, Raven was also in a state of considerable strength.

It wasn’t really physically difficult, but I think I was tired from training every day.

But now, having just finished sparring and taking a break, sparring again?

Even Raven, who likes to train like that, was terrified.

But Sang-woo shook his head and asked.

“I have a sudden thought. Can’t you just do sparring once? yes? Sabu-nim~”

Sang-woo suddenly shows off a cute act that doesn’t even make sense.

Raven put on a puzzled expression, then nodded.

-i get it. Come on.

“Now? yes. All right.”

Sang-woo, who was connected to the ENB, smiled and posed.

Then

[Stigma of Jealousy]

Sang-woo used the stigma of jealousy on Sabu!

How is it?

‘If it’s copying the ability, shouldn’t I just copy the ability of Master, the strongest person I know?’

Sang-woo came up with something from an idea he had just realized about the stigma of jealousy.

The fact that the master’s ability can also be brought.

‘If I can get someone else’s ability anyway, Master’s ability is the best, so let’s bring Master’s ability.’

Envy’s ability, the stigma of jealousy, brings the other person’s ability.

However, according to what Sang-woo found out now, it feels like he brought it in a kind of copy form, rather than stealing it.

It was a form of copying some or all of the abilities of the target marked with jealousy to oneself.

In other words, even if Sang-woo copies Raven’s ability, there is no harm to Raven.

That’s why Sang-woo thought of bringing Raven’s ability.

-What did you use for me?

Raven frowned as if feeling something strange.

Seeing Raven like that, Sang-woo grinned.

“Ah, it is a skill that I will become stronger. It’s not harmful to Master’s body.”

Then

“Go!”

I ran straight to Raven.

[Storm Slash]

[Storm Slash]

[Storm Slash]

[Storm Slash]

Four gusts slashes flew into Raven, including the 3 clones and Envy that were already training.

───────────────

?< Level 5/Lv.62 >: You can unleash a gust of wind.

-Gentle Slash: Creates a whirlwind of wind with a sword. You can put an aura on your whirlwind.

-Windwall: Unfolds the wind barrier.

───────────────

Is it because the Stormbringer’s swordsmanship is quite advanced?

The power of the wind and swordsmanship of the gust of wind, which had already reached level 62, was quite large and bloody.

[Pungmak]

But, of course, his teacher, Raven.

He lightly spread a shield of sword energy around his body to block it.

“No, Master. Poongmak is against the rules!”

Sang-woo grumbled.

Because the wind shield surrounded by that sword was so hard that I couldn’t even hold out my business card with most barriers.

– Chuck. Your attacks are pretty fierce.

“Still, it is a foul. Do you seal the wind screen?”

-haha. i get it.

Since then, Raven, who does not use wind screens, smashes or deflects all of Sang-woo’s sword skills with his unique quick movements and extremely fast sword.

‘As expected, you’re strong.’

The level of understanding of the sword was different, especially the speed was ignorant.

Raven was not a system user, but he must have been very quick.

And the more he did, the more Sang-woo’s expectations grew.

‘Come on, bring it quickly. Master’s ability!’

A Raven branded with jealousy.

In order to obtain his ability, Sang-woo and his alter egos rushed further towards Raven.

-You’ve gotten pretty strong.

However, Raven wielded his sword as if he had plenty of room to spare, adding word by word.

– The attack is monotonous. You have to attack while anticipating the enemy’s movements.

-Movement is not flat. You can move up and down, so think more three-dimensionally.

– Force the opponent to move. Keep in mind that your strength lies in absolute majority numerical superiority. You have to constantly push your opponent into the state you want.

Advice that will become bones and flesh.

With his Overmind skill, Sang-woo continued to attack while reflecting on the advice.

And finally

[The level of windwork skill increases.]

[The level of windwork skill increases.]

[The level of windwork skill increases.]

…The skill of windwork that did not rise so much after reaching level 70. ‘s level suddenly jumped up.

He probably brought his master’s windwork ability.

‘done!’

Sang-woo wanted to cheer.

Because what he thought was right.

And that fleeting joy brought a gap.

Boom!

Raven struck his alter ego with his sword.

The alter ego flew away and crashed into the gym wall.

puck!

“Ouch…”

I blocked it with my forearm, and the forearm bone seemed to be broken.

– Focus. What are you so distracted by?

Raven was bruised while dealing with the other alter egos.

However, even when Sang-woo was reprimanded, he laughed out loud.

“Haha no, I will concentrate!”

With the stigma of jealousy, it won’t be long before he catches up with Raven.

After speaking, Sang-woo immediately used his recovery skill and got up.

Then he ran straight to Raven.

‘Hehe, Master, I’m going to Cheongchul.’
