Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God - Chapter 294
Episode 294:
For Velvet, the egg was the world.
The warmth of the person who hugged her was love and her mana was her nutrient.
Before it breaks the world yet.
before even being born.
even before the name was decided.
Is it because they are dragons with far higher intelligence than other races?
‘My mom and my dad…’
Velvet remembered everything from the moment she was an egg to the time she was born.
Of course, that’s more than a clear memory.
It was just a momentary emotion, sensation, and situation, but even so, Velvet never forgot the joy she felt at that moment.
okay. how to forget
When the warmth of the egg became abnormally hot, it gave it cold air so that it could be born.
give it a stroke
share the mana
Velvet was just an egg, but all those moments became memories and food, forming a new velvet one by one.
‘Really young….’
Maybe the genius talent and growth power that Velvet displays are influenced by that. The dragon, Sardonyx’s potential, Shin Yoo-seong’s talent, and Adela’s genius melted together.
Fluffy-
Unidentified blue liquid.
Velvet felt as if someone was pulling her up to the sky. As if someone was pulling her body and sinking it into an endless sea.
I felt like my body was floating and I felt the sensation of being engulfed.
Flash.
Velvet struggled to open her eyes so as not to fall asleep in the strange sensation.
But after all that effort, what I saw was a square glass tube and a blue world.
‘Where is this going…’
Even if it’s 1/100 million.
Concerned that a runaway might occur in the city while moving the velvet, researchers from the Hunter Association filled the glass tube with mana coolant and placed the velvet.
As a result, Velvet, submerged in liquid, was breathing through a respirator with a tube.
‘I’m sleepy…’
In the midst of the mana cooling liquid, Velvet tried to remember her current situation and herself so as not to forget it.
[Mom!]
Velvet remembered the moment she was born. He remembered the surprised faces of his family around him.
[Here are the ingredients for the cake! Those over there are tools needed for cooking]
Cooking class with Sumire was really fun. sweet cake.
[okay. if you want to be together should be together Kids are more so.]
Kim Eun-ah’s hand gently stroking her hair.
[Velvet must remain here.]
Adela’s stern words for herself.
[Velvet] Since you chose us. We will always be with you.]
And yourself.
“You are like family to me.”
The voice of Shin Yoo-seong, who acknowledged him as a real family member.
rattle! Rumbling-
Even though it was going to an unknown place in a glass tube now, there was always one place for Velvet to be.
‘Velvet… I want to go home…’
Smart Velvet didn’t understand what Mei Lin and the researchers said, but she was still ready in her heart and didn’t want to part.
‘If I write up, Dad, Mom, Orca…’
I didn’t want to leave.
‘Worry about me… you’re going to be…’
I wasn’t ready to break up yet.
Saua-
Cook-
Enlightenment of sleeping with the power of the cooling agent wrapped around. Even when she lost consciousness and closed her eyes, she never forgot everyone’s appearance and never lost her desire to go home.
‘velvet. I want to go back…’
* * *
The party members, who had cleared the 19th floor, continued their conversation throughout the return from the tower to the club room.
Split into 3 parties, while attacking the tower for several days, the party members had conversations that could not be shared.
Of course, the topic of conversation that comes up most often is definitely velvet.
“We were the slowest because the quests were changed in the middle. How long did Velvet have to wait for us…”
“That’s right! Whooping, they will be waiting for us to lose their voices. I want to go back soon and make a lot of delicious food.”
Adela and Sumire too.
“They didn’t know where they were going and tried to quietly follow them… but they felt sorry for leaving them alone.”
Eunah Kim too.
“Ah~ don’t worry too much! Velvet even has an orca! It’s because I can’t see how well the two of them play~”
Amy too.
“Still, I made Velvet wait a lot longer than I thought. I guess I should have stopped by once.”
Shin Yoo-seong also wanted to see Velvet. Thanks to that, the return step feels light.
Tiririk-
But the door to the insolvency opened.
“Velvet~! where are you?”
“velvet?”
Despite Sumire and Adela’s calls, there was no answer from the club room.
“What are you picking up stones outside?”
Kim Eun-ah looks around the room with a puzzled look at the very quiet reaction. Orca, who was lying face down in the living room, looked up as if indignantly after checking on the returning party.
“Master, madam… Now, little master…”
* * *
Deep in the mountains far away from the city center. But let’s get into it by car along the well-paved road.
A heavily guarded building with cameras installed without blind spots appeared on a wall of enormous height.
[Present ID.]
Maylin presents an unknown ID card following the guidance of the security equipment installed at the entrance.
[Check-in….]
[Checking the code number.]
Tilik-
[Checking completed.]
When Meilin’s identity was confirmed, the iron gate at the entrance, which looked like a fortress, moved to both sides and allowed vehicles to enter.
“…This building looks like a fortress any time you look at it.”
Meirin just nodded her head without answering the words of Himchan Ju, who was driving the vehicle. Even though Meirin made the right choice for the safety of the citizens, she couldn’t shake the feeling of shame.
“Haa…”
In the end, Meirin unknowingly let out a deep sigh, trying to calm herself down.
‘…This transport was also allowed by the president of the association. I couldn’t help it.’
There was only one choice Meirin regretted now. If only I had known that Velvet would be born with such powerful mana among dragons.
I shouldn’t have let the students manage the dragons from the start.
No matter how Shin Yoo-seong had ownership of the egg, this was the same as letting a live bomb grow in the city.
‘It gave me time to attach so much affection to it. Because of that time, both the dragon and the students will have a harder time…’
Huu-
Meirin touched her forehead and let out a deep sigh again.
“Is it because you’re worried about student backlash? Still, this case is the president’s choice, so you don’t have to worry too much…”
Despite Joo Himchan’s consolation, Meirin didn’t say anything the entire time she passed through the dark tunnel.
Percussion-
After passing through the tunnel like that, I saw pure white square buildings built in a row as if they were aligned. Maylin opened her mouth belatedly.
“It’s just… I’m not used to bad roles.”
An awkward silence came over the two of them.
Joo Himchan opened his mouth in the silence of one minute, short if short and long if long.
“By the way, was that little dragon’s mana really 13 million?”
13 million.
No matter how much a dragon is, it’s a huge number to be a newborn hatchling’s mana.
“yes. And it is increasing day by day.”
But Meirin was still saying that it was just the beginning.
“When I first checked that dragon’s mana level, it wasn’t that high.”
“Then in that short time…”
“I don’t know what happened, but that dragon is too dangerous in a good or bad way. That thought has not changed.”
That’s why Meirin thought that Velvet should be raised in the laboratory.
That way, you can handle the risk in preparation for the worst case scenario.
“I understand. According to the records of the tower, it’s not something that only happens to hunters who can’t control their power and run amok.”
Was Joo Himchan’s consolation helpful? Meirin, who had been holding her forehead and sighing until just a moment ago, had an expressionless face as usual.
“is it so. I’m sorry for that dragon, but for the safety and happiness of many people…”
He made a decision.
“This is an inevitable choice.”
* * *
White tiled floor.
Velvet awoke in a building where a mysterious machine emitted sensor lasers to measure the concentration of mana in the atmosphere.
“Just looking at it like this, it doesn’t look any different from a normal human child.”
“Still, the result of the measurement I just made. The branch manager Meilin was right. Even if he looks like an ordinary kid, his mana level exceeds 13 million.”
“Such a little boy…”
Amidst the murmur of noise, some looked at Velvet in amazement, others tried to avoid it with frightened faces, and others frowned as more work was added to their hectic work.
“I can’t even handle power properly, but I have that much mana… I
wonder if I can stay in the lab because I’m afraid of this…”
However, no one here treated Velvet as family. Unlike Busil, here, Velvet is just an object to be managed and one of the experimental subjects.
‘Kyaaang… Mom and Dad…’
Velvet bowed her head at the sudden separation and longing for everyone.
‘I miss you…’
This wasn’t the place Velvet should be.
