Episode 15

#Episode 15

The Memory Devourer that had placed its hand on my forehead fell to the ground and died.

“What the…?”

Unlike with the Lich, this time there were no particular System Messages except for the level up and 30th level skill acquisition messages.

It had simply placed its hand on my forehead, and then died a miserable death just like that.

‘I knew it wouldn’t go down without a fight, but I didn’t expect to kill it so quietly without any fuss…’

At this point, unless you were an idiot, you could tell my profession was extraordinary.

However, I couldn’t figure out where that extraordinariness came from, or why exactly this profession was given to me.

“Hyun-soo, are you okay!?”

“Uh… I’m fine, my memory is intact too.”

“Really!?”

“Yeah, but there’s something more important than that.”

Since I killed the Memory Devourer, what happened to the people of Sejong City?

When I urgently looked around, they were gradually coming to their senses one by one.

“Huh… What… Why am I sleeping on the street?”

“Uh… Huh!? Huh huh!?”

Although there were some confused people, there were also quite a few who pulled themselves together and recognized the current situation.

“Hyun-soo, what should we do?”

“What else, let’s just leave them and go.”

“Eh… Really?”

“Yeah.”

Right now, even fewer people than that manage to survive somehow when they band together.

But could twice as many people really not survive?

‘When I come back later, Sejong City might have become a strategic stronghold…’

Just as we were about to quietly go down from the rooftop.

“Ah!”

“Why!?”

“Wait a minute.”

I hurriedly searched through Park Min-jae’s pockets.

A red car key came out of his left pocket.

“I saw a car at the inn.”

We could also gather some food supplies on the way.

* * *

“Wow, having a car really makes a difference!”

“Drive faster, oppa!”

Goodbye to the days of walking around step by step while groaning “Oh, my back!”

After excitedly stepping on the accelerator and speeding up for a while, Kim Yeo-ul asked curiously.

“Hyun-soo, but do you have a license?”

“Of course! I got it right after the college entrance exam!”

“Unni, but does a license even matter?”

“Ah…”

We quietly drove along the road.

On the ruined Korean Peninsula, only one car was running hard, making engine sounds.

“Where are we going next?”

“Cheonan!”

“Oh, walnut cookies!”

“Forget walnut cookies, there probably aren’t even any walnuts…”

Actually, driving a car so openly like this on the Korean Peninsula is crazy.

It’s like begging monsters to “Please kill me~”.

In fact, Kim Yeo-ul sitting in the passenger seat was diligently scouting the surroundings just in case.

And not long after.

“Hyun-soo, something’s coming over there.”

“Hm? What is it?”

“It looks like… people?”

“…What? People?”

Are there other crazy bastards like us?

“Iram, I can’t see the rearview mirror, so move your head.”

“Okay!”

The beautiful girl moved down and a new scene unfolded in the rearview mirror.

“…Wow, there are crazier bastards than us.”

Guys with skull marks on motorcycles and a Porter truck were rushing toward us.

Seeing them honking the horn like crazy and flashing their headlights wildly, they weren’t ordinary crazy people.

“What should we do?”

“Well, is there any reason we need to deal with them?”

I tried to ignore them and keep going straight, but unfortunately, their motorcycles were much faster than our car’s speed.

The motorcycle that instantly pulled up beside me gestured for me to roll down the window.

I was curious about what they would say, so I slowly rolled down the window.

What would they say?

Tell us to get out?

Or maybe, money?

Surely they wouldn’t demand Kim Yeo-ul…

“Excuse me! Are you by any chance heading to Cheonan?”

“…Oh, yes, we are. Why?”

What’s this? Why are they being friendly?

The Mohawk-haired Man with Skull Tattoo’s face turned pale as he shouted.

“There’s a gate open in Cheonan right now, so you absolutely can’t go there! Turn your car around, quickly!”

A gate opened in Cheonan?

Gates opening in the Republic of Korea was a common occurrence.

But to make such a fuss and tell us to stop like this…

“Alright, understood.”

Only then did the man let out a sigh of relief and move to a position behind us.

His car had skulls and chains, and he himself had a mohawk, leather jacket, and skull tattoos, yet he was being kind.

“The disconnect is incredible.”

“I know, right…”

For now, we obediently stopped the car.

If this turned out to be a lie, I was planning to impose severe punishment.

As we got out of the car, the people who had been following behind came rushing over.

“Are you okay?! You seemed to be in a hurry – is there a patient or something?”

“No, we’re perfectly fine.”

One Burly Man, the Skinny Man who had been on the motorcycle, and several ordinary-looking people all crowded around us.

I didn’t sense any killing intent from this whole process.

There was even someone who brought several bottles of water, asking if there were any dehydrated patients.

‘Are they naturally good people?’

That said, I had no intention of believing them completely, but it was still better than outright hostility.

“But what do you gentlemen do for work?”

“Ah… we look pretty menacing, don’t we?”

“To be honest, yes.”

“Ahaha…”

The mohawk-haired man seemed to know his appearance was embarrassing as his cheeks reddened before he spoke.

“Do you know about Doctors Without Borders?”

“!?”

At the mention of Doctors Without Borders, Kim Yeo-ul’s eyes widened in surprise.

I was equally shocked.

“Of course we know about them – they’re doctors made up entirely of Hunters.”

“Oh! Then this conversation will be easy.”

Those who had been following us simultaneously pulled out crumpled medical specialist certificates from their pockets.

Behind that, seeing them carrying stethoscopes, medical equipment, and medical boxes, it seemed they weren’t lying.

Seeing how natural all their actions were in proving themselves, it seemed this wasn’t the first or second time they’d faced such suspicion.

“You have impressive credentials.”

“Ahaha… Thank you.”

“I’m Cha Hyeon-su, this is Kim Yeo-ul and Seo Iram.”

“Ah, I’m Lee Hyeon-cheol.”

After a light handshake and hearing their story, their situation was quite remarkable too.

With the era of gates opening and monsters pouring out, the activities of Doctors Without Borders had become even more vigorous.

Each country treated the members of Doctors Without Borders with the utmost care, as if hosting state guests.

Especially the doctors from the Republic of Korea, who were all Hunters, were welcomed with open arms by frontline Hunters whenever they arrived.

Therefore, the Republic of Korea’s medical association usually chose to visit countries that had fallen into serious situations.

I heard their most recent expedition was to Brazil.

However, during the Brazil expedition, they received urgent news that the Republic of Korea had fallen into a critical situation and hastily returned home.

But when they returned, the country was already half-destroyed.

“Wow, what terrible luck…”

“Iram, shh.”

“Okay!”

Even though the country had collapsed, these were medical professionals who sacrificed themselves to treat people.

At first, they continued their medical association activities nationwide, diligently treating people.

But as they say, flies gather around flowers – rogues appeared who targeted this medical association.

Stealing medical supplies was the least of it; there were even crazy bastards who tried to kidnap the doctors.

Since all 20 members were Hunters, subduing them was easy work, but as doctors, beating people up conflicted with their professional ethics.

So to avoid looking like easy targets from the start, they adopted their current appearance.

“It’s really not easy.”

“Sob sob… Thank you for understanding.”

“At the same time, it’s admirable.”

It might sound funny, but in the current Republic of Korea, excluding us, was there any group stronger than Doctors Without Borders?

At their level, they could easily leave the Korean Peninsula and receive state guest treatment in other countries.

Nevertheless, they remained on the devastated Korean Peninsula until the end, helping people.

“Ahaha… Y-you don’t need to praise us like that, it’s just our natural duty as doctors.”

Lee Hyeon-cheol, who seemed to be the leader, laughed in embarrassment.

The other doctors behind him also cleared their throats and blushed.

Since this wasn’t a situation where combat would break out, I took out chocolate bars from our car’s supplies, enough for everyone, and handed them out.

“You’re doing good work, so please have some while you work.”

“Oh… we’re not supposed to accept things like this…”

“In these difficult times, we need to help each other and survive.”

“…Then! We won’t refuse.”

In the Republic of Korea, chocolate was quite a precious commodity.

However, since we had raided the inn and convenience store in Sejong City, giving away a few chocolate bars wasn’t a big problem.

Fortunately, giving them chocolate made the atmosphere much softer.

“But what did you mean earlier about a gate opening in Cheonan?”

“Ah, that. It’s a ‘Wave.’ A ‘Wave.'”

“…A Wave opened?”

“Yes.”

There are several types of gates.

Starting from the common discharge-type gates that spew out monsters, to dungeon-type gates, gates that infect their surroundings, and so on.

But among them, the gate that triggers a national emergency just by appearing is the ‘Wave.’

This gate pours out monsters in the thousands at minimum and won’t close until all monsters are dealt with.

Even worse, if all monsters aren’t eliminated within a certain time frame, it spews out twice as many more.

Humans have no choice but to kill every single monster that emerges.

E-rank and F-rank monsters are manageable for now, but once monsters reach C-rank level, the difficulty skyrockets insanely.

That’s why when a Wave-type gate is discovered, countries usually seal off all cities within a 100km radius.

Because if even a single monster escapes, it could literally cause a catastrophe.

Of all things to open, it had to be a Wave.

I grabbed my throbbing head and asked.

“What kind of monsters are coming out?”

“E-rank monsters called Horn Rabbits.”

“The monster level isn’t too high then.”

“Yes… if the country were intact, it would be numbers we could definitely handle.”

The problem was that the country wasn’t intact right now.

A bitter atmosphere flowed between me and Doctors Without Borders for a moment.

“So monsters are still pouring out right now?”

“Yes… but from what I heard, Hunters from Seoul are cleaning them up as they see them.”

“Hunters from Seoul…?”

“Yes, I heard they’re people using red weapons… they’re probably from the same organization.”

“Ah…”

Red weapons… from what I’ve heard, those sound like Bloodsuckers.

So right now the Bloodsuckers are hunting Horn Rabbits and continuously leveling up?

“Huh… this isn’t good.”

“I suppose not… it’s not something that can be solved by catching just one or two.”

That’s not what I meant though.

The Wave alone was giving me a headache, but now the Bloodsuckers were using it to keep getting stronger.

“Haah…”

Isn’t there some way to handle this?

If we leave it like this, the problem will snowball and might become unmanageable later.

Not to mention how much blood the Bloodsucker’s vassals from various regions might be offering.

‘…Since it’s come to this, should I at least check the skill I got today?’

I hadn’t been able to check it because we fled from Sejong City in such a hurry.

I really hope it’s something useful…

With a pounding heart, I checked the newly acquired skill.

And.

“…From now on, we’re going to Cheonan.”

“What!? We’re really going!?”

“If you want to go, then we go.”

“Let’s go, let’s go!”

Watching us get back in the car, Lee Hyeon-cheol tapped his forehead.
