The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 488
Chapter 488 Changing Incheon (1)
The place where Roman Dmitri left.
It was disastrous.
Everyone in the direct control unit, the best power of the Incheon government, was spread out on the floor with a messed up face.
Lee Tae-seong looked at them and couldn’t hide his complicated feelings.
‘… One level promotion within a month? Is that really possible?’
Promotion is a difficult problem.
It usually takes several years to advance one level at a time, but as the level goes up, the difficulty also rises steeply.
So there was almost no grade B or higher in the province.
Since he had done such a difficult job, everyone wanted wealth and fame in Seoul, but no one wanted to live in poverty in the countryside.
That is to say.
Many of the members under direct control were Class C, but it meant that all of them should be promoted to Class B, which is considered special.
It was impossible.
If such a thing were possible, Korea would not have been evaluated as a weak country.
Lee Tae-seong looked at a member of his direct control.
“Cheolmin.”
“yes.”
“You said you knew about Kang Min-ho. Tell me about it.”
Park Cheol-min is a C-class member of the direct control.
Because he had mentioned Kang Min-ho, all eyes of his colleagues were focused on him.
Park Cheol-min spoke in a cautious voice.
“… Actually, before I became as strong as I am now, I once met Kang Min-ho by chance. Because of that relationship, Kang Min-ho came to me a few months ago and asked me to tell him how to become stronger in the E-grade life. So, to be honest, I don’t quite understand. At that time, Kang Min-ho was clearly at a level suitable for E-rank, and it would not be different even if he searched through the Hunter database.”
“Then, what is the probability of succeeding in being promoted to 2nd dan within 3 days?”
“Impossible. I don’t think he can rise to the same level as me because he couldn’t even react properly to my attacks.”
It was a firm decision.
Anyone who knew Kang Min-ho even a little bit could understand how absurd Roman Dmitri’s remarks were.
Lee Tae-seong showed a complicated expression.
I wanted to trust common sense.
but.
“… Common sense has already been shattered.”
I looked down at the sword.
It was a B-class sword made by a craftsman in Seoul, but it shattered while fighting Roman Dmitri.
Like a sword in a disastrous state, common sense is broken.
I couldn’t be sure that Roman Dmitri’s words were unconditionally impossible now that a series of absurd situations were already happening in Incheon.
Taeseong Lee raised his head and looked in the direction where Roman Dmitri had disappeared.
“For now, let’s all get ready. If the impossible becomes reality, then something must be done.”
* * *
3 days later.
Kang Min-ho looked at the promotion examination center in Seoul.
He headed to Seoul early in the morning because all hunters in Korea proceeded with the promotion process here.
My heart raced.
The first time I heard Roman Dmitri’s order, I was embarrassed, but I was in a state of confidence while preparing for the promotion review for three days.
He has already proven his skills in the ant nest.
If you are a normal E-class hunter, even one soldier ant is too much for you, but didn’t you deal with dozens of soldier ants at the same time?
It was different from a month ago.
Roman Dmitry’s order, he believed, was for good reason.
‘He taught me how to be strong when I was nothing. Dmitri’s skill is what people want to learn at the cost of gold and silver, but Roman Dmitri never asked me for anything in return. All I can do is follow orders as best I can. If you jump into a fire, you jump in, and if you tell him to fight, you fight. Blindly following must be my role.’
made a will
Relationships that have passed in the meantime.
None of them paid attention to Kang Min-ho, who had humble talents.
It was the first time.
Roman Dmitri’s heart was so grateful that he couldn’t allow him to be funny in front of people.
‘Unconditional promotion.’
stepped inside.
There were many people at the window hoping for a promotion.
After waiting for a long time, it was Kang Min-ho’s turn, and Kang Min-ho turned over the documents that recorded his performance and said.
“E grade to C grade. I want to see the second-dan promotion review.”
“Two ranks?”
The employee glanced at Kang Min-ho.
The second stage review is unusual.
It is practically impossible because there is a big difference between each stage, and those who succeeded in some 2nd stage screenings often got a chance from the beginning.
For example, the successors or the chosen ones.
There were not a few cases in which people who became stronger through Giyeon rose from a low grade to a high grade at once.
however.
“Hmm.”
The staff frowned.
The paperwork was odd.
There must be a basis for the second-tier review, but there were only E-level tasks in the contents of the documents.
He looked at Kang Min-ho once again and reacted bluntly.
“… Are you really going to be judged for C grade with this performance?”
* * *
The promotion process is simple.
You just need to apply for the grade you want and prove your qualifications against a person with skills corresponding to that grade.
Usually, the promotion evaluation is not carried out unreasonably.
There are many cases in which people attack with unreasonable skills and then get severely beaten, so they went to the promotion judge only when they decided that they could really deal with a person of that level.
That’s why Ki Myeong-jun, a C-class hunter, showed an absurd expression.
He let out a tearful yawn and said to the examiner who was walking with him after checking the documents.
“You want me to deal with a kid like this?”
“The window clerk said he was just going to send it back, but he said he would take the test, even signing a memorandum saying that he could die while taking the test. It’s really absurd. Then we could not stop him from taking the exam while paying a huge promotion fee even though he could really die.”
“The world is dying. To be able to surpass the C grade with this kind of performance.”
It was like
Hunter database.
Its record proved reality.
Kang Min-ho was a typical low-level hunter who performed only E-class missions, and no matter how much he looked, there was no reason to be wary of him.
There was only one item that stood out.
In the case of the anthill in Incheon, which recently made a splash in Korea, he was present at the scene with Roman Dmitri.
The examiner explained it.
“Actually, I remember that I judged this Hunter named Kang Min-ho a few years ago. It was a seat for the E-grade screening, but I still remember it because of the fierce fighting. There is no way that such a person played a special role in the anthill incident. Rumor has it that there might be an S-class being named Roman Dmitri, but he probably got rid of all the ants.”
“In a word, it means that I took the bus.”
“Yes.”
crumpled the paperwork
Thinking that he didn’t need to look at it anymore, Ki Myung-jun threw the crumpled papers on the floor.
“Then, it seems necessary to properly punish a guy who doesn’t even know the subject. These days, when I look at the promotion review with ignorance, there are some guys who think they’ve been beaten once, but if I send them off with even one arm cut off, they won’t talk nonsense like that.”
“You can do that on your own.”
laughed
It went well when I was bored.
Just like filial piety to sinners, Kang Min-ho’s case will be a good example for everyone.
* * *
Kang Min-ho took the stage.
While the judges were observing, he drew his sword while looking at Ki Myeong-jun, who was on his opponent.
sereung.
“I am Minho Kang. I wish you well.”
“Yes, yes.”
Ki Myung-jun nodded.
Acting as if a full statement was not necessary.
In the situation of facing each other, the examiner immediately gave a signal.
“start.”
pod.
crash.
The one who ran first was Kang Min-ho.
Kang Min-ho used a dash by using Sura simbeop, and Ki Myung-joon was surprised to see him closing the distance in an instant.
It was faster than expected. Dash is just a common sub-skill, but the appearance of digging into space was different from what is commonly known.
‘Look at this.’
charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I drew my sword.
Gently generating mana, he slammed Kang Min-ho, who was running head-on.
‘Take it down.’
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
It was a powerful blow.
It was intended to win the game at once, but this time, contrary to expectations, Kang Min-ho calmly received the attack.
From then on, I started to feel strange.
The fast running speed and casually blocking one’s own attacks were evidence of exceeding the level of an E grade, but Ki Myung-jun could not accept the reality.
Kang Min-ho’s performance.
It was miserable.
I didn’t like the fact that a person with such a track record would surpass the C grade.
“Where do you stand?”
sudden.
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwak!
He pushed Minho Kang.
Swinging his sword wide, he continued to strike Kang Min-ho down, lightly blocking Kang Min-ho’s counterattack, and rather attacking the opponent’s vital points.
Hunters belonging to the promotion test center. They were kind of mercenaries.
They received a salary while staying at the screening room for a certain period of time, and they considered the time at the screening room as closed-door training.
Think about it.
A place where you can fight dozens of times a day.
Ki Myung-jun was a veteran.
Even if it was the same C grade, Kang Min-ho was helplessly pushed back by his skillful attack, which was one level above him.
pod.
Arm bounced off.
As soon as he tried to slash his chest, Kang Min-ho hurriedly left his seat, spinning his body.
‘strong.’
Myungjun Ki.
It was definitely strong.
As he was in the position to judge C-grade, he had the power to take down and press the Hunters who had just passed the C-grade.
And the reason is unknown, but the situation is quite hostile to himself. Kang Min-ho watched Ki Myung-jun as he rushed forward.
It was an opponent he hadn’t dared to challenge just a month ago, but now he didn’t feel nervous at all.
It was a relative phenomenon.
Kang Min-ho experienced Roman Dmitri and witnessed Roman Dmitri slaughtering ants.
It was a new world.
From the moment I witnessed a world that I dared not touch, fear did not arise within the scope of common sense.
‘Definitely strong, but not an impossible opponent.’
Why?
A laugh came out.
this examination.
Even if you last for 3 minutes, you will pass.
Winning was not necessarily the goal, but Kang Min-ho wanted to bring results that would satisfy Roman Dmitri.
blast furnace.
Kwak.
I gripped my sword tightly.
Seeing Ki Myung-jun approaching right in front of him, he began to practice Sura swordsmanship in earnest.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
A powerful shock occurred.
When Ki Myung-jun was taken aback by his stronger power than expected, Kang Min-ho immediately pushed Ki Myung-jun by using the Sura sword technique.
The Sura sword method does not end with the effect of simply strengthening the aura.
In the swordsmanship itself, there was a form that pushed the opponent in any situation, and that form shined in Kang Min-ho’s sword.
this world.
People called Hunters clung to their skills.
It was not the kind of power that he understood and mastered himself, but he accepted the power given by someone unknown to him.
It was the same with Ki Myung-jun. An existence that uses skills like a game and shows off its strength.
He couldn’t help but be embarrassed by Kang Min-ho’s swordsmanship, which accurately understands the form and pushes against it.
one point difference.
That made a huge difference.
Ki Myung-jun’s counterattack cut his skin, but Kang Min-ho pushed his opponent with conviction.
‘Dmitri’s technique taught by Roman Dmitri. It’s a skill that’s one level higher than what the successors learn. I don’t know how you know such a skill, but the difference between knowing the principle and not knowing it is huge.’
Caang!
“… ?!”
Ki Myung-jun was pushed.
it was a gap
In terms of strength, it was clearly overpowered, but the exchange of attacks was not determined simply by strength.
I lost my balance.
Kang Min-ho exploded mana at the sight of Ki Myung-jun staggering.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
“Cheak!”
Ki Myung-jun screams.
He was unable to stop properly from the shock of his whole body being torn apart and fell to the ground.
Took.
Clink.
Ki Myung-jun’s sword fell to the floor.
Ki Myeong-jun also couldn’t wake up with blood.
The results were clear.
“… A Kang Min-ho won.”
Astonished examiner.
This was a shocking result that deviated from common sense.
