Chapter 187 When Qi Yu walked through his territory again, he could clearly feel the difference. His body’s resistance to the cold had increased. To be precise, his overall physical abilities had improved in every aspect. Unfortunately, ever since he returned from the resource zone, his attributes had turned into a string of asterisks—he couldn’t see the exact numbers anymore. But judging by how he felt, if the numbers were still visible, every stat would have…

Chapter 188 The sixth day of the Ice and Snow Boss event. Perhaps because he had gone to bed early the night before, when Qi Yu woke up, the sky was still dark. He opened the survival panel and saw that it was seven in the morning. There was still about an hour until sunrise. He didn’t rush to get up, but lay in bed, recalling everything that had happened yesterday. So, I’m not human? Nor am I someone from the apocalypse. Dan Xingyu hadn’t guessed wrong—I am a native of the…

189 Dawn broke. Almost as soon as the clock struck eight, Qi Yu received a message from Dan Xingyu. Qi Yu thought that he did. As someone who truly loved good food—perhaps now he should say as an elf—he had, of course, asked Teacher Egnor this very question. After all, the “nutritional supplements” prepared for him by the elves seemed rather limited in variety. “Of course you can eat,” the elven teacher had told him. “Those are just to provide your body with energy. If…

190 Qi Yu had never played this kind of game before. But the way Dan Xingyu described it sounded so much fun, and since he didn’t have anything else to do at the moment, he was happy to play along. He volunteered, “In that case, I’d better fly a bit faster.” He cast an acceleration spell on the golden flying carpet. Twin streaks of blue light flared from either side of the golden rug, as if a pair of wings had sprouted from nowhere. Whoosh! They sliced through the sky. . The…

235 Jewel Rune (1) Hong Seok-young led me deeper into the building. From the entrance, the building hadn’t looked very large, but as we walked through its interior, it proved to be much more spacious than I’d expected. Perhaps noticing my puzzlement, Hong Seok-young offered an explanation. “It’s an old building, you know. They did some construction in the middle and connected it to the building in the back.” “Isn’t this a building used exclusively by the Association?” “In…

236 Jewel Rune (2) “So, how do you check a rune?” Hong Seok-young was as excited as a child with a new toy. I adjusted my magic watch as I answered. “There’s a comparison program. If I run it…” “You said there’s a rune database, right? The runes you’ve shared so far—did you pull those from there, too?” “Not all of them.” I shrugged. “There are some runes that every Hunter has to learn as a basic skill.” “Ah. The concealment rune?” “Yes. The…

237 Jewel Rune (3) Among the eleven mages, three belonged to the Nantes Magic Society, those often called Noah Michel’s fanatics. The only information the magic watch’s database could provide was their names, nationalities, affiliations, and a brief biography. If they were domestic mages, I could have found out more, but with foreigners, even that much was difficult… Still, there were ways. Fortunately, the reports left behind by the Management Bureau’s staff remained. There were no…

238 Jewel Rune (4) “Do you really think that makes any sense?!” “And why wouldn’t it?!” A pointless argument broke out between us. Did this man even realize what he’d just said? Of course he did—how else could he say it so calmly! Even as irritation and anger surged to the top of my head, a corner of my mind grew cold and clear. For a moment, I felt as if Hong Seok-young’s words were accusing my brother of being one of those who brought about the world’s destruction.…

239 Father and Daughter (1) I struggled, desperately, to keep my composure. Fortunately, my sanity held out until I managed to pull the car over to the shoulder. “Give it to me.” Hong Seok-young silently extended his arm. The phrase he had just read flickered before my eyes. I stared at that absurd sentence in silence. “…Is this even possible?” “Please, just be quiet for a moment.” “……” If you simply asked whether it was possible or not… it was…

240 Father and Daughter (2) “Dad has always loved you both….” Hong Seok-young read the letter in a low voice. A letter? Could this really be called a letter? Isn’t it more like a will? “After this, there’s a bit where he curses me… The rest, well.” “……” “……” Hong Seok-young fell silent. It was quiet. The faint sounds from outside barely kept the car from being submerged in complete silence. But it was just as suffocating. Unable to…

241 Father and Daughter (3) I hate the saying, “Like parent, like child.” It’s a phrase that judges me solely by my parents, regardless of my own efforts. For the same reason, I dislike the saying, “Blood will tell.” If I succeed, it’s thanks to my parents. If I fail, that too is naturally their fault. Sure, if I do something idiotic and can avoid taking the blame by putting someone else in front, there are times when that’s convenient. But what truly infuriates me is when, no…

242 Civil Complaints (1) “All right.” Hong Seok-young, surprisingly, accepted it right away. “Let’s check the rune first. And then we’ll head to that dungeon you mentioned. Jirisan.” If Hong Seok-young had simply ordered me to do it because it was urgent, I probably would have gone along, pretending to be reluctant. But contrary to my expectations, Hong Seok-young backed off without protest. “You’re not wrong. If Jieun asks what this is, I wouldn’t have anything to tell…

243 Civil Complaints (2) You have to admit when you’re wrong. And you have to apologize. The faster you respond, the quicker the troublemaker—no, the other party—loses their will to fight. “I’m sorry. I didn’t consider that part.” “What?! No! I wasn’t expecting an apology from you, Mr. Woo!” Kim Chaemin cried out, startled. “It’s just that I was a little hurt…! I just want you to explain things properly!” “Yes. That’s why I’m apologizing. You’re right,…

244 Civil Complaints (3) “Mana pen?” “It’s just a provisional name. It’s intuitive, isn’t it?” Gamble raised her eyebrows. In front of her sat a thick wooden stick and a mana stone smaller than a pinky nail. “I don’t know about intuitive… You do something with mana? What does it do?” “It’s simple.” The mana pen was a device painstakingly developed by the mana engineering researchers at Dayeon. Shaped like a portable fountain pen, it included features like…

245 Safety Device (1) The official schedule at the Hunter Training High School begins at 9 a.m.—the start of morning classes in standard academic subjects. The students’ routines revolve around this. Of course, individual habits vary. For example, Oh Hyunwook, Kang Taewoo, and Soon Sunjin wake up at 6 a.m. After a quick wash, the three of them start their morning exercise on the field at 6:30. Lately, for some reason, Seo Hanseong has started joining them as well. At 6:30, as the sound of…

246 Safety Device (2) Despite all those years that had passed, the existence of the magician remained shrouded in mystery. Magicians liked to describe themselves this way: “Human. More intelligent and enlightened than anyone.” On the other hand, those who were not magicians would often whisper: “Beast. A savage creature imitating an intelligent lifeform.” Personally, I don’t think either side is entirely wrong. Magicians are clever. They are people who strive to uncover some…

247 Safety Device (3) “Why not? There’s nothing to learn from him.” “Well, it’s true I don’t have anything to teach a magician like you, Ms. Kim, but still, it doesn’t feel right!” “What do you mean, it doesn’t feel right?” Kim Chae-min looked at Hong Seok-young as if she truly couldn’t understand what he was saying. Seeing that, and sensing that Hong Seok-young’s pride was being oddly pricked, I stepped in before he could start spouting nonsense. If I could pass…

248 Safety Device (4) There was hardly a trace left of the original, flimsy contract Kim Chae-min had brought at first. Still, in its own way, we had arrived at something everyone could be satisfied with… …… To be honest, I wasn’t satisfied, but I figured Kim Chae-min felt the same, so I decided to leave it at that. Before handing the paper over to Kim Chae-min for her review, I read it through one last time. At the very least, yes, I’d succeeded in removing the word…

249 Safety Device (5) “Why?” Park Seo-hyun, gnawing at the end of her pencil, lifted her head. “Huh?” “Is something bothering you?” Choi Jin-woo pointed at the pencil, now covered in teeth marks. “You always chew your pencil when you’re worried about something.” “Ah. Uh, yeah… No, I’m not worried about anything.” Seo-hyun blushed slightly and slipped the ruined pencil back into her case. For some reason, she felt embarrassed by the mess she’d made of…

250 The Archmage’s Apprentice’s Apprentice (1) …… …… Kim Chae-min slowly looked over the contract again. …… Still, she said nothing. I racked my brain, trying to figure out how to explain this without sounding like a delusional lunatic or a cultist, but there was no way. I should have worried about this back when we were wrestling over the contract. ‘I’m from the future.’ ‘From nineteen years ahead.’ ‘What happened in the future? Everything was…
