Dungeon Hunter Chapter 181:

Chapter 181: Saintess (3)

“Pant, pant, pant . . . ”

"Cough! I was going to die . . . ”

The people who escaped from the forest gasped for breath .

The angels stopped chasing after they left the forest .

It was like they could only act within the forest .

"What, pant pant, happened?”

Kim Yong-woo wiped the sweat off his brow and asked .

It wasn’t possible while running away, but now the angels had disappeared so they could ask .

Yoo Eun-hye responded calmly .

“I saw a sword stuck in a rock . The angels seem to be protecting this sword . ”

“What? A sword stuck in a rock?”

“Yes . Very . . . it was a sword that felt sacred . ”

The words were very meaningful .

If so, didn’t the forest and angels appear because of the sword?

Kim Yong-woo ended the talk as soon as possible . The information needed to be discussed with everyone .

The story of the sacred sword discovered in the forest soon spread among the humans .

 

Duke Martin .

He always kept his eyes and ears open .  He use creatures and insects to stealthily listen to the humans .

‘The power of the Saintess will make my foresight complete . ’

It wasn’t that long ago that he had a prophecy . It had been less than a month . However, he was certain that a Saintess would appear in South Korea .

The problem was that he didn’t know the exact time and place .

He didn’t even know what the Saintess looked like . All Martin had foreseen was a woman in her 20s .

Thus far, his power was incomplete . He had the ability to see the future, but was very limited in what he could grasp .

That was always his complaint . . . in order to make his foresight complete, a god’s blood was needed .

'God’s blood . It is possible with the Saintess . ’

A perfect example .

He felt a thrill just imagining it .

Duke Martin was an ambitious man .

He was currently in Pandemonium’s faction, but it would be different if his power became much stronger .

He even thought about becoming a grand duke .

For that reason, he started moving as soon as he had the vision . It wasn’t difficult for Martin to take control of the remaining creatures .

Martin stared into a crystal ball from a deep tunnel .

"The forest appearing is a good sign . ”

A sign announcing the advent of a Saintess!

A forest that contained a sacred sword .

He heard it from humans, but the angels guarding it meant it was obviously a ‘sign . ’

It meant that the emergence of a Saintess was imminent .

He hadn’t discovered her yet but it would happen soon .

But . . .

‘I can’t get rid of an ominous feeling . ’

There was something . He was frustrated because he couldn’t figure out the answer .

‘It hasn’t been confirmed yet . If it is related to my death, there is nothing I can’t foresee . ’

He shook his head . No matter how uncertain his ability, it was possible to see a little bit ahead when it involved himself . In other words, he couldn’t die .

‘An existence that escapes from the principle of causality . I will be this existence on Earth . ’

Despite his unease, he couldn’t help laughing .

Causality wasn’t something that could be easily overthrown . And those who could overthrow it were called ‘God . ’

“I have figured out the location of the sword . I will go there directly . ”

He commanded all the creatures .

Anyway, he made a decision .

Martin pledged to take a more aggressive offense .

 

The movements of the creatures subtly changed .

The scattered creatures started to move through the forest .

‘The fish is caught . ’

I smirked . The creatures were moving .

Martin .

I was certain that he would want to secure the sword first .

The sacred weapon was for the Saintess . Of course, the Saintess had the power of attract this sword .

'It isn’t a real sacred sword . . . but the bait is enough . ’

It was the ‘Lightning Sword (Epic)’ that he bought for 2,000 achievement points . It didn’t have good options for an epic grade weapon, but it was suitable for imitating a sacred sword .

'He moved straight away . As expected, was it due to the humans?’

Martin was cautious . I noticed that he had ears and eyes scattered all over, but it was hard to find all of them . As expected, he was also eavesdropping on the humans .

The rumours spread through the humans had an effect . Everything was as I planned .

Now all that was left . . .

‘I won’t interfere with the sword and will search for the Saintess . ’

Martin led the creatures but he wouldn’t expose himself . He would immediately retreat if there was danger .

Of course, there was still the possibility that I could catch Martin . Once he emerged from his hiding place, I could grab him . But there was also the possibility of missing .

I wanted more assurances before grabbing Martin .

In order to do so, I needed the card called a Saintess .

I would use the time while Martin was distracted by the sword .

‘A Korean Saintess . . . there was one . ’

I had the memories from my previous life .

The Saintesses made quite a name for themselves and I remembered that one was Korean . There was definitely one person who became an Awakened quite late . . .

‘Kim Yura . ’

I nodded .

It was unlikely that there would be another woman with the qualities of a Saintess .

Kim Yura . That was the name of the South Korean Saintess .

‘By now . . . she should be in her mid-teens . ’

I roughly recalled her characteristics .

It was time to meet Roy and Rose .

 

Late in the evening .

Someone moved under the full moon .

I opened my magic power .

“My Dungeon Master . ”

“Chrisley . Have you been well?”

The roof of the tallest building .

I smiled at the person approaching . The still veiled Chrisley came forward and kneeled down .

“It isn’t a very difficult job . Apart from Rose who is a bit of a troublemaker, Roy is very trustworthy . ”

Chrisley said with a light expression .

She often looked sad after Krasla died, but she seemed to have overcome it .

Roy and Rose helped heal the wounds in her heart .

“Roy and Rose?”

“They are asleep . Should I wake them up?”

“You don’t need to wake them up . You . . . and the girin should be enough . "

I moved my gaze . The girin appeared in an empty space .

The horn on her forehead and nine long tail were her trademarks . The girin stared at me with an expressionless face .

“It has been a while . ”

"It seems like you can use your abilities more effectively . ”

"I have learnt how to tie space together . ”

"Hoh . . . is that possible?”

"I came instantly because it is possible . Rather, what happened? I hadn’t seen you since that first time . ”

Her tone was filled with thorns .

I had told the girin the location of the enemy dungeons and then left .

After that, she went through quite a lot .

Not long afterwards, she was inundated with problems .

“I need to find someone . Her name is Kim Yura . She is in her mid to late teens . A woman . ”

I didn’t care .

The girin hadn’t expected this and shook her head .

“Who is she? The person you are looking for wouldn’t be an ordinary person right?”

"Don’t worry about it . I won’t harm humans . ”

"Then you will harm the demons . Is the human a threat to you? So you want to cut off the bud?”

“It is similar, but no . No human can threaten me . ”

There were few demons who could threaten me individually . Only an alliance could keep me in check .

The girin had nothing to say . She realized it as well .

I turned around .

“Move covertly . There shouldn’t be any rumours . If you find her then bring her to me quietly . ”

It needed to be done behind the scenes .

I made one or two traps to catch Martin .

 

The name of the baby angel was Hash .

Tashmal had looked after the angel egg I bought and shortly after, a cherub was born . I had trained Hash for a job . The angels’ growth was very fast so I gave Hash some special education .

Hash could create a few small light spears and would continue to grow in this battle situation . Of course, Tashmal opposed this . But there was a limited number of angels that could be used as a sign .

There was a possibility that Tashmal’s face and magic power would be recognized, so there was no choice . However, Hash gave off a sacred feeling and his face wasn’t known . He was perfect to be utilized as a sign .

And the angels who guarded Hash weren’t weak . The angels guarding Hash and the sword were selectively screened .

I determined that it was a power that could pressure Martin . But it was a number that would allow Martin to make an attempt . These actions were designed to attack Martin and to make him take a bite .

Martin was watching the situation from a distance .

"Hmm . . . it is an obvious sign . The angels and high class creatures are keeping each other in check . . . ”

Gigantes, the griffin and the hydra!

Even Martin couldn’t easily touch the three creatures .

It was impossible not to receive heavy damage .

The hydra was especially unknown . There was a chance that the hydra was as strong as him . Maybe Martin would have moved directly .

However, those three creatures were now in the vicinity of the forest . The angels were stopping the three creatures from entering the forest .

Although there were no direct attacks yet, it seemed like a conflict was going to happen .

‘Randalph Brigsiel . His dungeon is likely to be in South Korea . No, a demon wouldn’t leave angels alone . Maybe he will soon lead the creatures to attack them . ’

Martin grabbed his staff .

It was inevitable that Randalph Brigsiel or other demons would become aware of the presence of the sword .

Even though the Saintess hadn’t appeared yet, the sacred sword had the power to attract one .

If he possessed it then finding the Saintess would be easy .

Another demon would be fine, but it would become complicated if the opponent was Randalph Brigsiel .

‘He is strong . There is also something unusual about him . He wouldn’t kill the Saintess . He might plan something similar to me . ’

Martin started feeling a sense of urgency .

If the sword entered that guy’s hands then his plan would be wasted .

His completed ability to read the future would go away .

‘I have to find the sword before those creatures attack the forest . ’

Martin nodded .

The angels would have to move to stop the griffin, Gigantes and the hydra . He would be able to reach the sword without any problems .

"Great Worm, make a path through . A path leading to the very heart of the forest . "

He had to find the sword first .

And . . .

"The Saintess will appear in critical moments . Have the dullahans and vampires attack the humans . Make the humans feel despair . ”

He had no thoughts about just stopping after obtaining the sacred sword .
