02. A visitor from the future (15)

On that day, the stars in the night sky were exceptionally clear.

For a city sky, the sky is sparkling with starlight.

Is it because it is a view looking up from a skyscraper that is far from the light of the ground?

Perhaps the moon was shining bright today, so Yoon Seo-hee thought.

“Ah.”

As I stare blankly at the sky, I suddenly realize that this is not the time.

The place you should look at is not the night sky, but the night view of the city.

However, if I looked down with the same posture, my neck would feel sore for some reason, so I looked up at the sky again.

The stars are pretty.

I wanted to go stargazing with Lee Jin.

However, the person with Yoon Seo-hee right now is not the boy she recently developed a crush on, but the girl who is expressionless and doesn’t know what she’s thinking.

The vacation is already half over.

Will the gate open today or tomorrow?

The rooftop of a skyscraper is quiet. Except for the occasional sound of the wind blowing, only the scenery of the city seems far away.

When you shudder from boredom enough to wish the gates would open earlier.

It was at that moment that Yoon Seo-hee felt the change under her inner city.

‘… What is that?’

Geseumchere opens his eyes and looks down.

Hangang Park near the Academy. Because it was late at night, the space was distorting like a haze in a place where no human presence was felt.

It was a sign of gate occurrence.

“Blank index!”

I urgently call the girl on the other side of the roof.

However, Ji-soo Baek received Yoon Seo-hee’s anxiously fluctuating thoughts, so she had already arrived by her side before her name was called.

Use your clairvoyant to look closely at the park where the haze shimmers.

Huge magical energy invisible to the naked eye was condensed like a whirlpool.

A clear sign of gate occurrence. Confidence was quick and judgment came even quicker than that.

Baek Ji-soo didn’t say anything and put her hand on Yoon Seo-hee’s shoulder.

A high level magic formula.

Spatial transition.

Flash! The two bodies were wrapped in light and disappeared from the skyscraper.

At the same time, two people appear on a park forest path slightly away from the gate.

“Woo-wook… !”

Yoon Seo-hee, who had experienced her spatial transformation for the first time, covered her mouth as her complexion turned purple from her nausea.

Although dizziness and nausea are the most common side effects of spatial displacement.

But I thought that the future Yoon Seo-hee would be fine because she received her space transfer magic well.

Yoon Seo-hee opened her mouth as she controlled her insides with a much better expression, as if she had really improved a little with magic.

“… Next time, give me some time to prepare.”

“I will.”

Baek Ji-soo realized who he was with.

The person with her is not her archenemy Yoon Seo-hee from 10 years later, but the inexperienced Yoon Seo-hee from when she was still a student. With that in mind, she had to fight.

If she lacked anything, she had to make up for it herself. Because it was a return for that.

Yoon Seo-hee looked around her for a while. A location vaguely distant from the gate occurrence area.

“Why did you come here?”

“I’m going to watch the situation for a while.”

Baek Ji-soo takes out a thin stick about two spans from within the cloak.

It was a standard supply staff given to the magic combat department, and it was the best for Baek Ji-soo, who has lost the deep roots of the world tree.

“Don’t move.”

As Baek Ji-su swung his cane, the figures of the two disappeared into the darkness like a black veil covering them.

“Wow, what is this?”

“A magic that hides sound and existence. Instead, you must not step out of the shadows.”

“Oh… Interesting.”

Yoon Seo-hee admired Baek Ji-soo’s use of multi-talented magic, such as space transfer and now this magic.

Before she became an Awakener, she would only be able to breathe fire or water if she had to say magic. To her, who had only vaguely imagined it, each and every one of these magic felt strange.

She must have been an Awakener who had awakened her skills and awakened her magic just like herself, but the difference was just amazing.

‘Are all wizards like this?’

Of course, not all wizards know how to use versatile magic, and Baek Ji-soo was a very unusual case, but Yoon Seo-hee did not know that.

Boo Woong-

The sound of engines coming from afar. Several vehicles were coming towards this place.

“Are they government and guild people?”

“Maybe.”

Yoon Seo-hee revealed a valid guess, and Baek Ji-soo also quietly affirmed.

Soon, men in black suits get out of the car and surround them. Control the entrance to the park and check if anyone is nearby.

Since the two were concealed with magic, they watched the scene quietly without being caught by anyone.

Soon, a large, expensive-looking limousine arrived on the scene, and hunters dressed in gear were seen ostentatiously getting off.

The black Chinese character for sky (天) engraved on the back.

“Are you black-eyed?”

A Class A guild that governs three districts near the academy.

This is a guild created by a hunter who likes martial arts, claiming to be the Black Chun Lord. Due to its unique machoism and accidental accidents, the external perception of the guild is not so good.

“… It’s a little strange.”

Baek Ji-soo narrowed his eyes and counted the number of them.

Of course, this area is in their charge, so it’s not strange that a Hunter belonging to the Black Chunmaeng came.

The strange thing is, the number of hunters is smaller than expected.

Considering the rule that when a gate occurred in the city, more than 30 elite hunters must be recruited based on A-class guild standards, the number of hunters who arrived now was less than half of that.

A hunter in his 40s wearing a black coat is the last to get out of the car.

It was Ha Seok-cheol, a semi-S-class hunter who was only seen on TV.

Ha Seok-chul crumpled his face as he watched the vortex of increasingly powerful condensed magic power.

“Seapearl, at times like this.”

Most of the main hunters of the Heukcheon Meng have been seriously injured due to the recent unreasonable attack on the upper part of the Eldoras Tower, and are being taken care of in the hospital.

If the fact was known, not only would the area in charge be transferred to another guild, but even the status of an A-rank guild was at stake, so he paid a huge amount of bribes to close members of the National Assembly and important government positions, and somehow concealed the facts and devoted himself to recovery. Was doing

But at a time like this, the gate exploded in the area in charge of the Dark Heaven League.

Even if you pull together hunters who can move, 10 people, including the guild leader, were the best for the current Black Chunmaeng.

Ha Seok-cheol spoke to the administrative staff who was measuring the level of the gate with a brusque attitude.

“What grade are you in?”

“Wait a minute, the results of the mana meter… It’s out now. It’s a B grade.”

“B grade. Are you fortunate enough?”

Ha Seok-cheol said as he looked at the slow-generating magic gate with his arms crossed.

“Control your surroundings and don’t let anyone in. Aren’t the government bastards here yet?”

Just as he was about to finish his words, a black SUV with the Special Administrative Department’s logo on it arrives at the scene, and a man in a suit with a civil service card around his neck gets out of the car.

A sly look reminiscent of a rat. It is said that people should not be judged by their appearance, but even to the two girls, they did not seem very sincere civil servants.

“Chief Kang Seok, have you arrived?”

Ha Seok-cheol approaches the man called Kang-seok with a hollow smile. The two greet each other by shaking hands, as if they are already close friends.

“You are having a hard time late at night, Lord of the Dark Heavens.”

“No. The head of the department, who is devoted to the affairs of the country day and night, is working harder. He wouldn’t have to go all the way here.”

“We can’t do that because there are government guidelines. But….”

Chief Kang Seok slowly stroked his chin and looked around him.

“Are there a few people? My lord.”

Ha Seok-chul’s expression hardened for a moment at those words, but then he quickly relaxed and burst into laughter.

“hahahaha. Heukcheonmaeng’s guild members are 100 per day, doesn’t Chief Geo know well? For a B-level gate, this amount of people is enough.”

“That’s right, I know the skills of the Black Chun Mang well. But I am also in a position where I have to report to the upper level.”

Director Kang Seok opened his mouth as he looked at the gate now clearly visible to the naked eye.

“Because I’m the one who takes the blame when an incident happens… I have no choice but to be a little more careful.”

“Ah, what, chief! Aren’t you ignoring the Black Chun Mang too much?”

Ha Seok-chul laughed heartily and patted my chest.

“In the Eldoras Tower, most of the idiots in armor will come out, but these are the guys I used to beat. It’s only a B-level gate, but in fact, I alone is enough.”

“As expected, Lord. He is a skilled person who can be called a semi-S class.”

“hahahaha….”

Get rid of Jun, bastard… Desperately suppressing the desire to press on, Ha Seok-cheol forced himself to smile. The muscles around his eyes trembled.

“This is my lack of sincerity toward the head of the country who is working hard. Hey, bring it.”

“Yes!”

At Ha Seok-cheol’s nod, the Heukcheonmaeng guild members held up black suitcases with both hands and loaded them one by one into the trunk of Chief Kang Seok’s SUV.

“I put it in without regret this time.”

“Hmm.”

Director Kang Seok only then nodded with a satisfied smile.

“If you’re Black Chun, a B-level gate would be enough. I will report to the superiors that there is no problem.”

“Thank you as always, Chief.”

Yoon Seo-hee’s expression contorted with anger as she witnessed the black trading scene of the two adults in the immediate vicinity.

“Those bastards… !”

“Be patient.”

Baek Ji-soo grabbed Yoon Seo-hee’s shoulders as if they were about to jump out.

“Nothing will be resolved until you leave.”

“How can you stay still after seeing something like that!”

“The corruption of those people can be revealed later. The important thing now is to prevent casualties.”

Baek Ji-soo already knew how messy the world of hunters was entangled in interests, so she accepted it calmly.

She tells her that her number one goal is to prevent the coming destruction. Rather, she was convinced that the gaps in her memory were structured together, because somehow she was able to figure out the reason for the disaster in the past.

At those words, Yoon Seo-hee gradually calmed down and calmed her excitement.

“Whoa… So what are you going to do now?”

“This raid will eventually fail. We just need to act before the worst happens.”

Either the monster was stronger than expected or a variable occurred, the reason is still unknown.

What is certain is that even though there was even a semi-S class, this B-class gate attack will fail as a result.

The moment the two decide on a policy, a loud sound resounds as if the space is torn apart, and the gate materializes into reality.

Kurleung! A blue gate was created, and the space inside the tower was peeped out from the inside.

「Clueaaa!」

「Kiaaa!」

The ferocious cry of an ominous being that shouldn’t exist in this world echoed through the Han River Park.
