Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 839
Side Story Episode 18:
When something really big happens to the country, various issues arise, such as martial law being declared.
In today’s era, something similar happens when an unexpectedly dangerous gate bursts.
So what happens if a piece of chaos suddenly appears in Seoul?
“You crazy guy! “Crazy guy!”
“evil! Argh! “Is he okay?”
Surprisingly, although an emergency was declared at the government level, it was not announced to the public.
The licker repeatedly hits the bald man on the back.
“Huh. There are so many powerful superhumans. “This world is full of surprises.”
Bekera, who actually became the culprit, is sipping soju and admiring it.
Strangely enough, we decided to stay at our hideout called Beker for a while.
There is no particular reason.
Hunters would immediately recognize the fragments of chaos.
Even if that wasn’t the case, Bekera couldn’t be carelessly left outside in the presence of ordinary citizens.
Even if it is unintentional, it can cause harm.
It is nearly impossible to make him learn the common sense and concepts of this place.
They are like that in the first place.
The government didn’t have the confidence to control it either, so they handed it over to us.
The guy who brought him there is also a hair loss man.
“Whew. after. Since I brought him here, I have him with me. Hey, when are you going back to the tower?”
“It won’t be long. “I’m curious about this world, but I’m already enjoying it enough.”
“So when?”
“I can’t be sure. “For someone like me, time doesn’t really feel that way.”
After scratching his head, Lick-Jjak glares at the Bald Man again.
“no. “But wouldn’t it be helpful to cooperate?”
The hair loss man protested, waving his hands, but Lick Jjakjak’s expression turned cold.
Then, all of a sudden, he looked at me and growled.
“Why are you bringing this or that piece of chaos? Ah-oh. “Because you brought him here, he followed suit!”
“Why me?”
I got scolded for getting involved for no reason.
It is unfair. Haiden had no choice but to sign the contract.
We have taken certain measures to prevent any damage to our world.
If the hair loss man brought a neighborhood puppy, I could see that he had been vaccinated and had it put on a leash.
“Eight! Hey! Anyway, you are the cause!”
Kongkong.
Nyangpun, who had been kicking my shin, wrinkled his nose and extended his finger toward Berekah.
“That tenant guy over there! “I was allowed to buy it, but not barefoot.”
“hmm?”
“You have to pay for the food!”
“It’s the price of food. This is difficult. Because I don’t have anything. “Since ancient times, the revolution is about rising from the bottom, so I am broke.”
“If you don’t have it, hit it with your body! “I’ll even pull out your hair and use it as material.”
oh. As expected, it’s nice.
They never do it for free.
Personally, I find it fascinating.
The chaos sword I use was also made from an eggshell left by Delverton.
If it were a part of the body of a transcendental person, something good might come out of it.
‘I think Lilka will like it too.’
I’ll have to bring it back sometime soon.
It seemed like he was busy making the obelisk, but sometimes you need to change your mind.
“It’s hair. I don’t know what you’re going to use it for, but if you need it. I also pay for my drinks. ha ha ha!”
Bekera took a refreshing sip of Andong Soju.
First of all, I brought all kinds of alcohol available in Korea.
What he wanted was alcohol, and alcohol wasn’t hard to find.
It would be better if you could feed it as you wish and send it back.
Rather than fighting without taking risks.
‘That’s why Nyangpun and Lickjjak are just complaining.’
I also got some information there.
The reason why fragments of chaos came down to the world.
It was to achieve their respective goals.
‘Perhaps we can properly appease and send away the fragments of chaos we encounter in the future.’
It would be nice to beat up every guy you meet, but that’s only when you reach the top tier.
We couldn’t manage all the chaotic debris.
together.
“you. “Let’s do something together.”
“What do you want?”
“Another fragment of chaos. I’m going to catch them. I need to figure out where it is. “If we can resolve it with words, we will do it. Otherwise, we will eliminate it with force.”
Bequera wants something.
Tracking down fragments of chaos.
‘I don’t know where the fragment of chaos moving with the person Ophelia was talking about is.’
Bekera was also such a case, but he was not the guy Ophelia was talking about.
The guy Ophelia mentioned seemed to be active in the Middle East.
It’s not that uncomfortable at all.
Originally, I was going to solve it through Haiden, but this guy didn’t listen to me at all.
“Heiden, that guy isn’t cooperating. “It’s useless anyway.”
[Heiden shrugs.]
“Oh. This is someone. You’re the one who didn’t leave the tower. A long time!”
[Haiden slightly increases the distance between them.] They
seem to be familiar with each other, perhaps because they are fragments of the same chaos.
Anyone could see that he was blatantly keeping his distance, but Bekera didn’t care.
“ha ha ha! To be ashamed. anyway. I’ll give you that much help. “That shy friend who likes to stay in a corner won’t be of much help!”
Bekera naturally made an innocent provocation.
[Heiden is crying!]
Rarely, Haiden showed a reaction.
I thought it was time to help, too.
“It seems he’s famous among you too. I brought this guy with me, but he didn’t do anything and just looked at people with sinister eyes. “It’s a pain in the ass.”
[Heiden protests, saying he has never done anything like that!]
“Look, look. You’re still stuck. Last time I went somewhere and couldn’t find it, so I looked for it and found out I was in someone else’s house? “If it were a person, it would be a prison cell.”
[I appeal that Heiden was there to see the culture of a new world!]
“Hahahaha! It’s the same on the top or outside! Even among us, he was a gloomy loner. It’s useless, but I still want you to take good care of it. Because I was surprisingly lonely. Isn’t that why I didn’t go out of the tower? Even if I go out, they won’t welcome me!”
Did those words become a wedge?
-Shuuuuuk.
【I can’t listen to this anymore. Drunkard. He is of a different class from you.】
Haiden appeared.
Isn’t this your first time coming to Earth?
It’s hard to see his face because he’s usually hidden.
-Wooow!
A brilliantly shining sword of light.
I tried to pressure Bequera with overwhelming energy.
“My house! Hangout! You bastard bitch! “It’s a nuisance!”
I immediately heard Nyangfun nagging me.
It was so large that the sword of light stretched out like wings, and a hole appeared in the ceiling.
The guy gets sullen, turns off the light, and squats down next to the sofa.
He acts shamelessly when I’m with him, but he’s quiet here.
[Heiden gets embarrassed when a lot of people’s eyes are on him.]
“Say it, man. “Don’t send out messages.”
【It’s more of a shame than a shame. What a shame! I’m so sorry!】
I walked to the side and patted his shoulder.
“But what can I do? It’s true that it didn’t help. Just take popcorn out of the fridge and people-watch as usual. what is it. “It’s like a cat looking outside through the window.”
【Do you think my worth is only that much?】
The guy stands up.
Then he pointed a point at Bekera.
【I will prove that I am superior to that guy. I’ll suit you specially!】
I proudly declared.
Of course, I’m not the type to fall for something like that.
“Then shall I swear by the concept?”
【…I can’t swear on something like this.】
“Don’t be scared. “You can do Bekera, right?”
“Well, that’s about it. Think of it as paying for entertainment. “I will use my concept to find the fragments of chaos that have descended upon this world.”
-Wooow!
With that, the concepts embedded in his soul are chained.
Proof that the oath was properly sworn.
【Damn it! I swear too!】
I nodded in satisfaction.
Since time immemorial, intelligence cannot overcome ignorance.
Thanks to the chaotic fragments with missing screws, there are fewer headaches.

Gates do not depend on terrain.
It can occur in remote areas that are difficult for people to reach, or it can also occur in the open air or on the top of a mountain or in the sea where entry itself is difficult.
Nevertheless, the reason why it is possible to clear the gate effectively is because the location of the gate can be identified due to the advancement of technology.
“Let’s finish early today again.”
“Let’s do it quickly before we get caught.”
This is because most gates are built on the ground.
The gate where the illegal hunter team Black Raccoon came was also like that.
North Korea collapsed.
Hunters entered the gate that opened in Kaesong, which is relatively close to Korea.
North Korea is still a place teeming with monsters.
Even though it was an individuality, it was still not managed properly.
Thanks to this, those who were pushed out of the gate competition or those who could not enter the gate through the normal route due to crime or their own circumstances targeted these places.
Of course, it was not permitted.
“Even if you get caught, what will they do? “There are no priorities or rights outside of the human domain.”
The exception was the area corresponding to the monster’s territory.
As clearing the gate was the top priority, I didn’t care who cleared it and how.
Black Raccoon was also a group of hunters targeting that point.
They even commit petty crimes and sell by-products on the black market.
As he did not belong to a proper guild, his income fluctuated, but since he did not pay taxes anyway, he had no complaints.
Sometimes you hit the jackpot.
For them, the jackpot was hunting humans, not monsters.
The inside of the gate is like extraterritorial jurisdiction.
It was common to gain loot by attacking those who were equally in the shadows.
“Did you hear what my brother said? Manchuria side airspace gate. “I heard that all the kids who went in there died.”
“He must have crashed while flying in that stupid light plane again. Or there was a defect in the parachute I used when I came out.”
“no way. If that was the case, I wouldn’t have said anything. “It is true that a light aircraft was used, but the pilot testified that no one came out.”
“Either that, or you’ve met people who backstab like us. “I went in early and waited.”
Black Raccoon’s team leader responded to his subordinate’s words indifferently.
Accidents occur frequently at places other than official gates.
They also experienced big and small accidents while living as illegal hunters for four years.
Nevertheless, the fact that he survived meant that he had that much skill.
“The team that entered that gate is the Blue Man.”
“Blue go red go huh? where? Blue Man?”
Black Raccoon’s team leader, who had been half-listening, paused.
Black Raccoon is also recognized as a mid-sized team in this world, but it is limited to East Asia.
There are people who are active on a bigger stage than that.
Teams commonly referred to as continental level.
Among them, Blue Man.
“There are also B-class hunters there.”
“So the rumor goes around. “You haven’t heard that Blue Man is active recently.”
This is a team with a B-level hunter.
If you become a B-level hunter, you are an important human resource within the country.
Unless you are in a place like Korea where there are a lot of high-level hunters, you are a skilled person who will accept you even if you get into a serious accident.
Blue Man’s leader, Bucky Stan, was a real murderer with a bounty on him despite being a B-class person.
Since the prevailing opinion is that he is better at killing people than monsters, he would have been swept away from most attacks.
“I heard similar incidents occurred not only in Manchuria but also in Kenya and Mexico.”
“Does that make sense? “I think he just fell because he failed to hunt inside.”
“I don’t know. Anyway, the atmosphere is scary these days, so let’s be careful. Or take a break for a few months.”
-Wow!
The team leader hit his subordinate on the head.
“I was just talking because I wanted to rest. done. “You never know when you’ll lose something, so you should pull it out and leave while you can.”
“Oh, it’s true. See.”
“What? Do you keep biting me? And then-”
The team leader couldn’t finish his sentence.
-Shoot.
Because the blade that flew out of the air blew off his head.
The subordinate who was frozen was no different.
“Gu gu–!”
Because you can’t speak with a severed head.
A group of people appears.
The person who was accustomed to searching through the arms of a corpse looks back.
“It’s dog hair. Since it’s a black raccoon, I thought there was something on it, but there was nothing.”
“There are others, so erase their traces and wait.”
“yes.”
A group moving in unison.
The symbol of the Kowloon Guild was embedded on their shoulders.
