Dungeon Hunter Chapter 186:
Chapter 186: Sacred Zone (1)
Yihi was excited .
She had forcefully made a garden from on top of Gigantes . She had been afraid of Dungeon Master’s anger but actually received praise . He even asked her to ‘clean things up . ’
“Yihihihi ~”
Yihi laughed from her place on Gigantes’ head .
It was proof that he trusted her . Perhaps his order of faith was reversed, with Yihi ahead of Chrisley .
The thought of Dungeon Master realizing her worth meant the smile never left her mouth .
“Little fairy! Noisy!”
But Gigantes didn’t like it .
"What, why, what, is Yihi noisy? Yihihihi!”
"Get off my head!”
"Bald creature! Bah! Yihi is someone who received Master’s trust . You should be thankful that Yihi is on your head!”
“Crazy fairy!”
"Are you blaming Yihi now? Ssiing . . . naughty baldy!”
Yihi formed a fist and punched Gigantes’ head . Her physical strength had increased after the upgrade . A lot of power was contained in one fist . Gigantes frowned and shook his head .
"Baldy! Live for a lifetime bald, bald isn’t bad . ”
“Bah, Master entrusted Yihi with a task . How important is a bald creature to him? Yihihihihi!”
"Insane fairy . "
Yihi kept on teasing and laughing at Gigantes . Gigantes didn’t like it and shook his head .
“Yihihihihi ~”
Still, Yihi was very happy .
The attack of the creatures . And the ensuing fight . All the Awakened in Seoul heard the noises . They saw flaming wings and lightning .
In particular, there was a dark magic power that made them sick .
What was going on?
The Awakened immediately sent a team for exploration . They were speechless as they found the bodies of creatures piled up like a mountain .
"It looks like they died after fighting each other . ”
"Looking at the scene, that isn’t necessarily the case . The first to die . . . doesn’t it seem like they died from one person?”
"One person against all these creatures?”
"I saw a barrage of flames from a distance . There was also lightning strikes . The one who uses such powers . . . the Saviour . The Saviour swept away all these creatures . ”
There were many comments as they explored . The most prominent thing was the emergence of the ‘Saviour . ’ No one other than the Saviour could handle thousands of creatures alone .
“I have found a demon . But both eyes are missing . ”
"Secure it . ”
It was the first time they could acquire a demon’s body . Everyone on the exploration team was excited . The body could be used as materials or to experiment with skills . They salivated just imagining the uses for the corpse of a demon .
The members wrote down the different type of creatures in the notebook . It would be used to write a risk report .
After a few minutes .
“ . . . Cough!”
Some of the crew started coughing up blood .
Their faces became pale like a ill patient and their hands and feet trembled .
There was only one thing that could cause such symptoms out of nowhere .
“Poison . . . !”
"What poison? Is it poison due to the decomposing bodies?”
"These bodies haven’t been dead for more than two days . It can’t be that . Someone . . . clearly sprayed poison . ”
It was a very strong poison .
The poison dissolved the skin of the creatures .
The creatures with weak leather skin were so melted together that their identities couldn’t be confirmed . They discovered this too late .
The earth where poison was sprayed . They couldn’t take it back .
"Ack!"
But that wasn't the end .
Something attacked the exploration team and many of them died .
“Creatures! They are in the ground!”
“Damn, poison goblins!”
Poison goblin .
A creature that emitted poison from its body . They had a strong obsession with their territory so not many dared go to places where poison goblins lived .
In the end, the team leader of the scouts bit his lip and said .
"Let's go back . This place . . . it is the land of the dead . ”
Yihi massaged her shoulders .
"Ahyu ~ how annoying . This is harder than I thought . ”
She returned to the forest and got some honey from the bees .
She held a cup of the most delicious honey .
As many bees wandered around aimlessly, she drank honey and water in the perfect ratio .
“Ah, delicious . Drinking honey water after working is really sweet . ”
Yihi touched her jaw as she drank the honey water .
"Handling this is an unpleasant affair . Processing the bodies? The instructions are clear . Then, um . . . ”
Yihi had been happy after hearing Master’s instructions, but was disappointed when she arrived at the scene . She decided to make a compromise by letting ‘another’ handle it .
Master had trusted her to deal with the things left behind .
Yihi turned her head and peeked at someone else .
“Puny angel? You, what is your name?”
"Hash . ”
A short reply . The angel was slightly larger than Yihi . There were many wings .
Yihi nodded .
"Hash? Ah ~ you are Hash?”
“Kyaaah~”
Hash flew near Yihi .
“Yihihihi . Do you want to go with Yihi?”
“Eung . ”
Yihi grinned as Hash easily agreed .
"Okay, Yihi will specify what to do . Then where do you want to go? Well . . . ah! Let’s go to see the humans . Humans are really funny . Yihihihi~ we can have some fun with Roy and Rose . What do you think?”
“Eung . ”
“Yihihihihi . ”
Yihi flew forward with Hash behind her .
Thus, the humans recorded the incident of the ‘fairy and baby angel flying in the sky’ as a horrifying nightmare .
Kim Yura and Kim Min-ji .
They were both laying motionless as I examined them .
Kim Yura’s appearance was completely restored . There were no signs of disability . She was born anew with a clean and pure image . It was enough to think ‘Saintess . ’
On the other hand, Kim Min-ji was completely different . She had barely survived after losing her lower extremities .
‘Humans can’t live without their lowest extremities . ’
It wasn’t easy to heal the lower part of the body that had already been cut off . It was possible to live but I wondered if it was worth it .
‘Kim Yura has become the Saintess . Her sister . . . I restored her life but I don’t need to get involved if she dies again . ’
I had kept my promise . I saved the dying Kim Min-ji but I didn’t know if she would die again .
But . . . something was strange .
“Tashmal . ”
I called Tashmal . It felt like the hair on the back of my neck was rising . I didn’t know what it meant so I wanted to ask Tashmal .
“What's going on?"
Tashmal was busy raising the angels . She seemed tired but answered my question immediately .
"Can you feel anything?”
"From the Saintess? Hmm, it certainly feels odd . I don’t think she is a common Saintess . ”
"I’m not talking about the Saintess but her sister . ”
"Her sister . . . ? The human without legs?”
Tashmal moved her gaze .
At the same time, Tashmal started frowning .
“This is . . . strange . She isn’t a Saintess but has a holy power similar to that of a Saintess . In fact, she is much like her sister . ”
“What does that mean?”
"The holy power is connected to both of them . Perhaps it isn’t just the holy power but also their lives that are connected . It is efficient and strong . This is the first time I’ve seen it so my answer isn’t definite but . . . if my thoughts are correct, both of them will have power considerably higher than a normal Saintess . Instead, their strength will decline if both of them are away from each other . ”
It was another unexpected harvest .
This was the feeling that tickled me .
I hadn’t noticed because Kim Min-ji’s holy power was small .
But the conditions were tricky . There were two bodies but one life, and they had to always be close to each other .
“Can you train them?”
I asked Tashmal . It was impossible for me to tell them how to use holy power . The only one who could teach them was Tashmal .
“Dungeon Master . You will be a better match than me . I don’t know why but there isn’t just holy power . Your magic power is also present . I thought it was impossible for the two powers to coexist at the same time but . . . the younger sister has more of your magic power while the older sister has more holy power . The two bodies perform different roles . ”
Ahh . It was balanced in that way .
Then it wasn’t impossible for me to train them .
‘I’ll have to make a lower body for her . ’
I discovered that they were one, so there was no need to hold back .
Although it was a hassle, I would tell Gaparam and Oswen to make a functioning lower body for her .
"Rather, Dungeon Master . I heard you caught a duke this time . ”
“Martin was killed . ”
"Then . . . what do you plan to do with his dungeon?”
"There is nothing planned . Why are you asking?”
Tashmal’s expression became serious . There was a moment of silence before Tashmal carefully opened her mouth .
"The dungeon . . . can you think about giving it to the angels?”
"So they can declare a sacred zone?”
"That's right . I have been watching the angels in the world and they are being defeated . I don’t like it . If they have a focal point then they can focus on killing the demons . Ah, except for you . ”
She hastily tacked on the final words .
"If I think there are benefits then I will obtain the dungeon . ”
I wasn’t good enough to simply hand over the dungeon .
Of course, declaring a sacred zone would keep the other demons in check but that wasn’t enough of a benefit .
Tashmal spoke with complex emotions in her eyes .
"In a while . . . Camael-nim will descend . One of the seven angels with the rank of seraphim . . . he has personally come to cleanse the earth . A place is needed to greet him . ”
My eyebrows furrowed . Seraphim . It was referring to the strongest angel in the hierarchy . How many times had I seen a seraphim descending in my previous life?
It was also strange that Tashmal knew about it . She was a fallen angel and wouldn’t be able to return to Heaven . How did she know this if communication with Heaven had been lost?
“Are you sure?"
“I received a ‘revelation’ . ”
