Dungeon Hunter Chapter 149:
Chapter 149: Guardian Deity (3)
Lee Ji-hye was puzzled .
"E-excuse me? Wait! Stop! Hey you, where did you get that? That mask is a symbol of our Devil Hunters’ raid group!”
She took out a similar mask from her chest and waved it . She tried to follow but Rose blocked the path .
"Don’t tail him!”
"Tail? No . . . rather, a dark elf . . . ?”
Lee Ji-hye’s eyes widened .
Dark elves!
She had traded with dwarves in the past, but the dark elves had always been aggressive . They were a creature to be cautious of inside the dungeon .
But now, dark elves were with a human . It was natural to be surprised .
Rose’s small tongue poked out a little bit as she spoke .
“Fairy-nim said that I should stop women from twisting around Master . Bah, I can clearly see that you are uglier than Queen-nim . ”
Yihi would occasionally meet with Rose and would give her some advice . Many of those words were related to women .
Lee Ji-hye was confused to have a young dark elf talking to her like this .
“ . . . What are you people doing here?”
"Humans call our Master a ‘saviour . ’ He does what no one else can do!”
"Saviour . . . ”
Lee Ji-hye turned around .
Almost all those here were following only one person .
They bowed down with their foreheads to the ground . The only word they shouted was ‘Saviour . ’
Rose flicked her head . She turned around .
"We are busy . If you want to follow then follow . Let’s go, Roy . ”
"Eung . ”
Rose took Roy’s hand and slowly walked away .
Yoo Eun-hye and Edward approached Lee Ji-hye with complicated expressions .
“Unni . What are we going to do?”
"I don't know . I guess the words heard on the radio were correct . . . ”
Not all communication was dead . There was periodic communication with those distributing supplies, the ones in charge of warehouses and the people kept separated .
She heard that the ‘Saviour’ had come . It was only after arriving here that the Devil Hunters confirmed his identity .
“That person . . . he is familiar for some reason . ”
The masked man . Yoo Eun-hye gazed at his back .
He was a blunt man . Lee Ji-hye also looked at him .
"Have you forgotten? He is already dead . Even if he is dead, we have still survived . ”
“Anyway . . . it is Unni’s decision . Devil Hunters’ leader is Unni . ”
Yoo Eun-hye sighed . There were shadows under her eyes .
Lee Ji-hye contemplated for a while before nodding .
“We will join . There seem to be many Awakened . Having a lot of people will be helpful . ”
The invasion had been abrupt and proceeded very quickly . Demons and creatures . They knew what the weaknesses of humans were and occupied Korea .
The capital city was smashed before it even reacted . They didn’t want to give time for the clever humans to unite together .
But . . . they still united . The humans gathered . If they could gather people then they didn’t need to be afraid of the creatures .
‘Who is he? Is he really a saviour?’
She didn’t know . One thing was for certain, his strength was far beyond her imagination . He shattered a huge orc lord and hundreds of orcs . Yoo Eun-hye who was the strongest wouldn’t be able to imitate his actions .
Although he felt familiar, it didn’t make sense that he would be called a ‘saviour . ’ Lee Ji-hye started to organize her thoughts .
Humans were scary .
Once they started believing in something, they wouldn’t be able to see the depths around it .
They believed in their faith and that it was the way to glory . Of course, that belief could be a driving force that made them crave ‘life . ’ However, it could also have the adverse effect of making fanatics .
Wuuuuuu .
Wooooo .
Small sounds filled the area . It wasn’t an orderly song . It was more like bizarre moaning .
"People are strange . "
Edward said while looking around .
"It isn’t strange . ”
Yoo Eun-hye denied his words .
At the moment, they were walking in the rear .
Only those with a strong belief in the saviour could stand near him .
"Noona, don’t you think it is strange? It looks so weird . . . ”
"Everything has fallen apart . It is gone . Just when they couldn’t see anything . . . someone offered their hands . He is a saviour to them . ”
It was the reason Yoo Eun-hye had followed that man two years ago . Despite being dangerous and often disappearing, he was someone who shone brightly to her .
However, now he was gone . The world was already on the brink of destruction and he didn’t show up when it was in danger .
Even when precious people died . . . or when his home was lost . . .
"Indeed, I would go crazy if Noona disappeared . ”
"Don’t say something so strange . You have the power to live alone . ”
"So what if I have power? I don’t want to . . . hehe . ”
Edward laughed with a playful expression . The atmosphere just then had seemed somewhat depressing .
Next to him, Lee Ji-hye gazed at the long procession and asked .
"Where are we going?”
The answer came from elsewhere .
"The land of heaven . Saviour-nim is leading us to a place with no worries . ”
A passerby said while shedding tears .
But Lee Ji-hye refuted these words .
"Don’t you see the angels? They believe that it is more important to destroy the demons . Humans aren’t a high priority . ”
"They are fake angels! Saviour-nim is the only one who knows the real road to heaven! According to Saviour-nim and his children, we can go to heaven . ”
"I am too young to go there already . ”
"You who lack faith! Do you still have doubts about Saviour-nim?”
Lee Ji-hye replied .
"I know that he is strong . He took care of the creatures that we couldn’t so I am thankful . But it is unlikely that he is leading us to heaven . ”
The passerby sighed like he was grieving . Then other people joined and surrounded Lee Ji-hye .
"You don’t deserve to be in this line!”
"Heretics!"
"Heretic!"
A fiery reaction . Lee Ji-hye was forced to panic at the sudden crisis .
"I am a heretic just because I don’t believe? Wait a minute, stop!”
Lee Ji-hye couldn’t stay still any longer because people started grabbing at her hair and clothes . The Devil Hunters raid team rescued Lee Ji-hye and confronted the group .
"Ugly woman!”
At that moment, a voice was heard .
“Ah?”
"Ohh, Saviour-nim’s child . . . ”
It was like looking at Moses’ miracle .
The people immediately gave way for the dark elf girl .
They stopped criticizing Lee Ji-hye .
The girl stood in front of Lee Ji-hye and the Devil Hunters .
"Master says we are moving . All the people around you as well! However, Rose won’t forgive you if you stab Master in the back . Only Queen-nim can stay beside Master . Do you understand?"
They didn’t know who Queen-nim was .
But the previous atmosphere had gone away .
Rose left after saying those words .
"Saviour!"
"Ohhhh . . . ”
"Ohhhhhh . . . ”
The people flattened their bodies like frogs and bowed .
“Unni . Let's go . "
Yoo Eun-hye’s voice broke through to Lee Ji-hye .
“Y-yes . Go . . . ”
Lee Ji-hye swallowed her saliva and walked away .
She felt like she was walking into a lion’s mouth .
