Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God - Chapter 176
Chapter 176
Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.
Heart rate and pulse displayed in green letters on the Bionet monitor. Ryujin looked at Liuming’s sleeping face.
An expressionless expression on lifeless skin.
Liu Ming’s face after the long 11-hour operation was very calm. How many times today has Ryujin given up on even counting the number of surgeries.
The number of times Liu Ming received surgery from Ryu Jin was not an ordinary number.
Just thinking about it made my limbs feel cold.
‘What the hell am I…’
What am I striving for?
Many years had passed since he swore that he would fix it, but Liu Ming’s life was still the same.
Still getting mana treatment in a coffin-like machine. A life where you have to take antibiotics every meal, even for adults, and wake up in a prison-like hospital room every day without even seeing friends.
[Oppa!]
Even in this hellish life.
A younger brother who is so proud to be able to pretend to be okay and smile for his worried brother. But because of that, Ryujin went to the hospital while Liu Ming was sleeping.
Ryu Jin did not have the courage to see Ryu Ming smiling brightly even in this difficult hell.
‘…Ryuming.’
Ryujin looked at Ryuming who was sleeping and forced his lips to rise. It was an awkward expression, but it was more warm than ever.
‘…Even with that small body. You are stronger than me.’
Even at the cost of his own life, Ryu Jin wanted to save Liu Ming from that hell. 1 minute 1 second was rushed.
Whenever I thought of the suffering Liu Ming, I felt desperate, as if I was being chased no matter what I did.
And then I heard familiar footsteps from afar
. that buck
A confident sense of intimidation felt in the footsteps. The sword body was accompanied by men in suits on both sides.
“Congratulations. They say the operation was quite successful.”
The sword god with narrowed eyes smiled. Ryujin’s beautiful smile overlapped with the snake’s tongue. That was a smile that one only smiles when one’s teacher is genuinely satisfied.
“A happy thing is a happy thing. Just don’t forget this debt. Just like I saved your brother’s life. You, too, must show the utmost in my swordsmanship.”
The extreme of swordsmanship is a path that even the swordsman himself cannot reach in his lifetime. However, that was not because of his will, but because of the swordsman’s body that had been transformed by the power of the tower.
Is it a curse or a blessing?
Due to the unknown power emitted by the tower, the sword body’s iron-like hands turned into white jade. Thick, long legs have now become the property of an ordinary woman.
To the swordsman, swordsmanship was life.
It was everything he had created by devoting 90% of his life. However, no matter how hard he tried with his changed body, he could no longer reach the extreme of swordsmanship.
He was still the strongest hunter in China, but he lost his goal.
However, the swordsman found Ryujin.
“I bet my all on the completion of the Celestial Sword. If you want to protect something precious, you must be prepared for it.”
The only piece that will put an end to yourself. Swordsman had to use any means to keep Ryujin by his side.
“…what if. If it doesn’t live up to my expectations.”
The Sword God laughed coldly, but did not speak any further. Liu Ming was a good rein for the Sword God.
‘If it’s his job, he’ll show off his pride even if a knife goes in his throat…’
When it came to his younger brother, Liu Ming’s, he quickly lowered his head.
“…I’ll keep that in mind. Master.”
Altitude like a wolf.
At Ryujin’s greeting, Swordsman smiled, which is rare. To Sword God, Ryujin was just a child who was easy to use.
And the same goes for Ryujin.
He only bowed his head because he needed the strength and power of the Sword God. The two were not meant to be called master and disciple.
The sword body put a pipe in its mouth and spewed white smoke that was different from what was inside.
“Huu- Master… A voice that is not even in the heart.”
Tuk- Sword Blade pointed at the sleeping Liuming with the end of the pipe.
“As expected, that child. …looks like you.”
With those words, the swordsman leaves.
But then. An unidentified message came to Ryujin.
Tring!
[imCheat!: Hello! ? Nice to meet you~~!]
A nickname I’ve never seen before.
Ryujin had never revealed his message address to party members or officials.
[imCheat!: The swordsman. You’re really better at acting than you look?]
Upon seeing the message, Ryujin looked around. No one was there, but in the corner of the hallway, I could see CCTV recording Ryujin.
[imCheat!: Don’t look so suspicious. Honestly, even as a villain, I don’t think this is the case~ I’m trying to tell you personally.]
The content of the message looks as if it’s watching the entire situation. Ryujin’s suspicion that the other party hacked the camera seemed to be true.
[imCheat!: This is an ID created through hacking anyway. You know it’s meaningless to even think about tracking it? Haha]
[imCheat!: We! I’m here to help you. I want to tell you the truth that the Sword God has hidden. Poor guy for being taken advantage of. ( •᷄⌓•᷅ ) ]
A message that treats Ryujin as an idiot.
However, the opponent’s behavior is extraordinary, such as cursing swordsmen and hacking the hospital’s camera. So it couldn’t be treated as a mere joke.
‘…’
Was he being used?
It was funny.
Ryujin was under the swordsman out of necessity. Because the swordsman, the head of the association, had the power to help Liu Ming.
[imCheat!: You still don’t believe me? But if you hear this, you’ll change your mind?]
T-ring!
With an expressionless face, Ryujin turned on the recording file sent by the other person.
– This operation is only a stopgap. Fundamentally, since the backflow of mana had already put a burden on the entire heart…
However, Ryujin’s poker face did not last long.
– How long can you last?
The voice asking the question now was too familiar. It was a voice that had spoken to him before. So I couldn’t forget.
– Two years at the most.
– Is it the same even if the drug is increased?
– This is already the limit. If you circulate mana, it only builds up the burden on your heart. In the opposite case, it puts a strain on the body. Holding out for more than two years is…
Kwak- Ryujin clenched her fist.
“…2 years?”
The fact that his brother had less than two years of life left meant that even before Ryu Jin graduated from the academy, Ryu Ming was no longer in the world.
It was impossible for even Ryujin not to be swayed by these stories.
– …okay? then. Don’t tell Ryujin about this.
Swordsman tried to hide this fact, but Ryujin eventually found out.
Even by someone whose identity is unknown. Ryujin tried to keep her cool and opened her mouth.
“…you. Who is it?”
Anyway, the opponent was looking at himself through the camera. Ryujin opens her mouth to the camera. Soon after, a message from the other party arrived.
[imCheat!: Is that important?]
[imCheat!: We can save your brother. That’s within two years.]
[imCheat!: Isn’t this self-introduction enough?]
Ryujin, who was hit hard, couldn’t say anything. I just looked at Liu Ming’s sleeping face.

Dark night.
A unique earthy smell that can be smelled on a rainy day. Kim Eun-ah didn’t like getting wet, but she liked the feeling of being refreshed on a rainy day.
Tuduk-tuduk-
juljoljoljol-
Is it because of that?
Instead of falling asleep, Kim Eun-ah was lost in thought, listening to the sound of rain hitting the tent.
‘…That guy. What are you doing?’
I haven’t seen you in just a few days.
Kim Eun-ah felt that the time she had broken up with Shin Yoo-sung was long. I was dumbfounded when I first heard that he was suddenly going to catch a dragon.
Now, rather than being surprised by Shin Yoo-seong’s actions, Kim Eun-ah was getting used to it.
The only regret is that there was no Shin Yoo-seong when climbing the tower.
Catch the monster together.
eat something delicious
sleeping in a tent
Although it was an adventure with a life-and-death risk, the time spent in the tower was more enjoyable than expected.
‘If there was Yooseong… it would probably have been more fun.’
To the point where I don’t even realize that it’s strange that I miss Yoosung Shin so much. Kim Eun-ah was often thinking about Shin Yoo-seong.
In a way, I was embarrassed.
Unlike myself, who thinks a lot even about small things. Shin Yuseong’s head seemed to be filled with something.
It was different from myself, who believed in his background and lived halfway through everything.
I did my best no matter what I did, and at some moments it was stupid.
‘…how many interesting things there are in the world.’
Kim Eun-ah thought that if Shin Yoo-seong returned, she would have to bully her. Take him to his favorite department store and watch the movie he wanted to see. take me to a restaurant
No matter what you do, Shin Yoo-seong will be the first. I had to teach myself.
If it was someone else, I would have thought it was annoying, but thinking that I was with Shin Yoo-sung, it seemed like it would be quite fun.
‘…Come to think of it. He must have lived only in the dormitory until now.’
How about taking her to your own mansion on the weekend? Not only my older brother, but also my relatives will come to visit, so it will be quite noisy.
Kim Eun-ah, who couldn’t fall asleep and thought of Shin Yoo-seong all over, recognized something strange.
When Kim Eun-ah’s plans are sorted out, she goes on a date with Shin Yoo-seong all day long. Taking them home and making them see their families.
‘…however. I also spent time with Sumire. Isn’t there anything strange about being with a party member?’
Taking him home is because his family wants to see Shin Yoo-seong. As I thought so, my face, which had been hot, calmed down a little.
‘Does it make sense to think so? Oppa must have a lot of things he wants to say to Yooseong, too.’
In addition, Shin Yoo-seong is the benefactor who saved Kim Jun-hyeok’s life. Kim Eun-ah soon finished the rationalization.
“Hmm or Hmm ….”
Amy’s sleep.
If so, why aren’t the other co-workers, other than Shin Yoo-seong, taken home? Kim Eun-ah suddenly had such a thought.
no one else knows Maybe I should take Sumire with me?
“Then Sumire too…”
The moment Kim Eun-ah looked at the sleeping Sumire and met her eyes.
Wow!
“Laplace. It’s the best….”
Sumire talked in her sleep and hugged Kim Eun-ah.
“Huh!”
The pressure of not being able to breathe.
“Nice. It’s kind…”
Sumire’s hand stroking her hair and her soft, gentle touch.
‘Should I think of that next time…’
Kim Eun-ah, who had been unable to sleep due to Sumire’s sudden unexpected power of tolerance, quickly fell asleep.
