Solo Leveling: Ragnarok - Chapter 107

Chapter 107

Thomas Andre.
He was the master of America‘s representative large guild, the Scavenger Guild.
Despite being an old man in his 70s, he was a world-class star who was active as an S-Class hunter.
The reason why he was described as a ‘star‘ was because he was a celebrity who had already achieved so much even before he awakened as a hunter.

“The Demon in the Ring“

Even before his awakening, Thomas Andre was the strongest UFC fighter that no one dared to be matched against.
It was a time when there was no such thing as mana powers or monsters on Earth.
Since he was in his 20s, he had already been an MMA player who had won the title of ‘humanity‘s strongest‘ with his pure force.
Numerous challengers challenged his stronghold, but none could beat him.
In the end, he tried to retire without experiencing a single defeat, but God did not allow him to retire.
After Cataclysm…
Thomas Andre, who was spending his old age leisurely drinking coffee with a friend, awakened as an S-Class hunter.
Revealing his overwhelming force to the world, he began catching and killing the monsters that appeared in the United States like rats.
‘Ha ha ha ha! This is real power! Just how weak was I before?!‘
From then on, he had his second heyday.
It was then that his nickname of ‘The Demon in the Ring‘ was replaced by a new one, ‘Goliath‘.
He was able to perfectly control his highly developed body even before he had mana powers, so it was very easy for him to adapt to his awakened ability.
‘Nice and easy! It feels as if I‘ve regained the power that originally belonged to me!‘
He showcased his strength to his heart’s content, like a free fish in water.
He then realized how narrow the square ring he was confined to was.
When fighting people, he couldn‘t bear to tear them to death. Dealing with beasts, it felt free to tear them apart.
In addition, the former will make him a murderer and be criticized by everyone, but the latter will make him receive praise and gratitude from people. It was wonderful!
‘Hahaha! Where could more mage beasts be? Hahahaha!‘
… Anyone who saw him brutally killing demons with his bare hands, whether through video or video, left similar reviews.

-Again. Idk who the real evil is.
-Doesn’t the demons look more pitiful?
-Please stop hating the demons ㅠㅠ
-What if the monsters become extinct because of Thomas?
-LOL
-Isn‘t it necessary to create a monster protection group at this rate?

S-Class hunters were quite rare, but there were still quite a few worldwide.
Each of them possessed an overwhelming force no less than that of Thomas Andre.
However, since there was no need for S-Class hunters to fight each other, it was impossible to compete for supremacy among them.
But when someone said that Thomas Andre was the strongest hunter, no one dared to disagree.
‘Scavenger Guild‘ was the organization created with him.
The only thing the Scavenger Guild revered was power.
As a result, most of the hunters who were in the Scavenger Guild were also oppressors. Recently, the United States was rather struggling because of their tyranny.
‘… To think that the head of such a guild would suddenly visit Korea.‘
After confirming the news, the General Manager of Hyeonmu Guild swallowed hard.
It was not easy for a person who was usually an S-Class hunter to visit a foreign country unless there was a special purpose.
The reason was simple.
It was dangerous.
They are literally walking combat weapons, dangerous people who could overthrow even one city in an instant if they wanted to.
In particular, Thomas Andre was by far the most dangerous person among them.
“What the hell is going on? Why did Thomas Andre come to Korea?“
“It seems that reporters are doing interviews in real time, but they are just saying incomprehensible things.“
“Incomprehensible? What the hell are you talking about?“
The employee of the Hyeonmu Guild, who was skimming through the interviews uploaded in real time, opened his mouth with his eyes fixed on his cell phone.
“… Prophecy.“
“Huh?“
“Did you say they came here because of prophecy?“
“Prophecy? Out of the blue?“
Flinch.
Suho, who was listening to their conversation from the side, subtly hardened his expression.
‘Wait. Maybe it‘s the Scavenger Guild?‘
There was a moment that flashed through his mind.
Scavenger Guild and the Prophecy.
Just in time, Beru popped out of the shadows and looked at Suho.
[Young Master, it seems that the guys we met at the pyramid the other day also said something similar.]
“Don’t tell me…?“
Beru had a bitter look on his face.
[I‘m sorry, but do you remember the proverb before? When you were studying proverbs when you were young, I remember that I taught you…]
“…“
“Ah, I found it. Live broadcast!“
Lim Dokyoon found and played the live broadcasts of YouTubers at the airport.
Thomas Andre was answering the reporters‘ questions in the video.
A white-haired old man.

The rugged, muscular old man lifted up the sunglasses he was wearing, stared straight at the screen, and opened his mouth.
-Yes. I came because of the prophecy.
“What? He speaks Korean.“
Surprisingly, as a native American, he was fluent in Korean.
-Hehe. What’s the prophecy? There’s no way I would tell you that with my own mouth.
Even his pronunciation was very Korean-like, as if he had been practicing for a long time.
-Anyway, the prophecy is over, and now I‘m going to find the messenger of death who killed my guild members. Messenger of death? Death Tiger? Is this word right to use in this case? Hmm…
Thomas Andre said with a sly grin.
“…“
The moment he heard his last words, Suho was convinced.
‘It‘s me.‘
[It’s you, Young Master.]
‘…‘
[…]
While everyone watched Thomas Andre‘s video with interest, Suho made eye contact with Beru and nodded with an awkward expression.
‘This… I had no excuses.’
Chief Lee Yeongho would rather have died at the hands of demons, because the hunters of the Scavenger Guild who fought in the pyramids of Ammut were sure to have been killed by Suho.
‘Obviously, their side attacked first, but…‘
[It‘s okay to be in such a situation. The thing is, the evidence was destroyed back then yet it was discovered now. Ah! Could it be that the Asura Guild, who you saved then, opened their mouths? I should have killed him then….]
‘More than that, I‘m a little concerned that it‘s about Prophecy.‘
Until recently, Suho would not have believed prophecies or superstitions.
However, once he realized that his father was a divine being, he could not ignore even something shamanic like a prophecy.
Not to mention, Thomas Andre, the strongest S-Class hunter, wouldn‘t have come to Korea just by seeing today‘s horoscope.
‘If it was a prophecy, then…‘
Suho remembered the ‘prophecy‘ he had seen in Egypt.

-Sooner or later, life born from death will awaken from its seal. And that power will raise the dead.

‘I think it was said to be a prophecy of some spellcaster, but now that I think about it again, it seems to be referring to me.‘
At that time, Scavenger Guild came to the pyramid after hearing about the prophecy, so there was a high probability that the prophecy mentioned by guild leader Thomas Andre was the same thing.
That means, eventually…
‘Hmm. It‘s me, too.‘
[What are you going to do? If they‘re really looking for Young Master…]
Beru looked at Suho with a concerned expression.
However, Suho only shrugged his shoulders with a nonchalant expression.
“Well. What could he do without proof? I took the entire pyramid.“
[Ehh?]
“Let‘s just insist we didn‘t do it.“
Beru pondered on that.
It seems that his Young Master has matured a lot lately.
Beru who nodded happily, saying that he seems to be gradually becoming more like his father.

“Huh? How dare you block my way.“
As soon as Thomas Andre came out of the airport, he saw the Korean Hunter Association members who stood in his way.
His expression was like a bad boy contemplating how to disassemble a toy, so the association hunters who faced him shuddered.
“Thomas Andre, such a sudden visit is against international law.“
Team Leader Han Jaehyuk, who had led the Hunter Association, stepped forward, suppressing his fear.
“Hmm. Are you the boss here?“
As the shadow of Thomas Andre fell on Han Jaehyuk, he gritted his teeth with a determined expression.
‘… My life ends here.‘
Seeing Goliath, the worst S-Class hunter in history, up close, the pressure was no joke.
As if on purpose, the suffocating energy that radiated from Thomas Andre‘s body was weighing heavily on Han Jaehyuk.
At that time, Thomas Andre‘s female secretary sighed lightly next to him and opened her mouth.
“Thomas, that’s enough of your plays. Since you’re tired, let’s just head to the accommodation.“
As soon as the female secretary finished speaking, the pressure that had weighed down Han Jaehyuk disappeared.
‘Oh God.‘
Han Jaehyuk, who almost collapsed on the spot when his legs gave out, kept his eyes on Thomas Andre, who was chatting with the female secretary.
“Why? I’m not tired yet though?“
“It’s me who’s tired. It seems like you keep forgetting, but I‘m not an awakener like you.“
“Aha! Yes, our Laura shouldn‘t be tired. Let‘s go to the hotel and get over the jet lag.“
Thomas Andre burst into laughter at the bitter remarks of his female secretary. Laura, who had already been accompanying him for 30 years, strode past the association hunters.
“Wait a minute! Thomas Andre! Stop right there!“
Thomas Andre looked back and smiled.
“You know what? No one has ever dared to stand in my way in my life.“
Chills.
A ferocious force that could only be felt from a giant monster began to radiate from his body again.
“Thomas.“
At that moment, Laura‘s voice stopped him from behind again.
However, this time, Thomas Andre‘s could no longer be stopped.
He warned the association hunters.
“Can’t you hear me? If I’m leaving, then I’m leaving. If you want to stop me, bring at least S-Class hunters from your country, not you idiots.“
“Thomas.“
Grumble!
The airport was shaking as if it were about to collapse due to the terrible energy he emitted.
“Thomas.“
“Laura, stop. No matter how much you…“
“The taxi is here.“
“Oh, already?“
The air in the airport instantly became lighter.
People who were weighed down by the fear suddenly came to their senses and turned their eyes to Thomas Andre.
“Oh, so cramped.“
He was trying hard to cram his huge body into a taxi.
