Episode 52

 

#Episode 52

 

After covering 3 kilometers in an instant, the settlement I had heard about earlier began to come into view in the distance.

 

“It doesn’t look like an ordinary settlement, does it?”

 

“Right, they’ve built another wall.”

 

The wall they had erected wasn’t even a roughly made wooden wall, but one built by stacking sandstone.

 

“Let’s try entering for now.”

 

Before long, I arrived in front of the settlement and got out of the car with my companions.

 

As I walked step by step toward the wall, a red siren suddenly began blaring.

 

At the same time, the sandstone wall moved, and fifteen gun barrels and flamethrowers along with CCTV cameras aimed at me.

 

As if to threaten me, laser pointers targeted my forehead.

 

“What the hell is this?”

 

My weight class had grown too large to be intimidated by mere bullets at this point.

 

I ignored the threat and stood in front of the CCTV.

 

“Are there any survivors inside?”

 

A brief silence followed my question, then a young boy’s sharp voice came through the speaker mounted above.

 

“Mind your own business, get lost before I put a hole in your head!”

 

My companions, momentarily flustered by the young boy’s voice, looked up at the wall in surprise.

 

“Are you alone?”

 

“I said get lost, you stupid bastard! Can’t you understand human speech?”

 

As if he really intended to shoot, I heard the clicking sound of bullets being loaded into guns.

 

“If you don’t get lost within 5 seconds, I’ll turn your body into a honeycomb.”

 

“Aren’t there any other adults inside?”

 

“You think I won’t shoot… don’t regret it later.”

 

5.

 

4.

 

3.

 

2.

 

I signaled to Kang Cheol-u not to step forward.

 

1.

 

“Die!”

 

As the countdown ended, bullets began pouring from the modern firearms as if they had been waiting.

 

When I activated Death Dancer, the incoming bullets felt as slow as if they were in slow motion.

 

I sliced all the flying bullets in half and wrapped my death force like a cloak to block the flames covering me.

 

All of this happened in about 0.1 seconds.

 

I brushed off the flames and transformed my scythe into a sword.

 

Then I cut the wall to create a square entrance.

 

Perhaps because it all happened so quickly, I could hear the boy inside panicking greatly.

 

“Wh-what? Are you a monster!?”

 

“See, it would have been better if you had cooperated quietly.”

 

The reason I went this far was simple.

 

I needed to check if he might be a damn monster tamer.

 

Even if it was a boy’s voice, in today’s world, such things could easily be modified, couldn’t they?

 

After cutting through the 30-centimeter wall and entering inside, a world completely different from my expectations unfolded.

 

Countless robots were busily moving around inside the village.

 

There were some cooking, and there were also household robots doing laundry.

 

Even inside the village, CCTV cameras placed everywhere were pointing at me.

 

“Robots…? Is this possible in the middle of the desert?”

 

“Wouldn’t it be impossible?”

 

“I still can’t believe it…? What is this, a dream?”

 

While I was bewildered by something clearly beyond comprehension, a robot suddenly burst out of a hut and swung a sword at my neck.

 

‘Huh? There are even combat robots?’

 

I wasn’t sure, but I got the feeling that whoever created this village wasn’t an ordinary person.

 

I wrapped death force around my neck and just let the attack hit.

 

The sword swung at my neck simply shattered, and the blade embedded in the wall.

 

“Whoa.”

 

“Tough.”

 

Since someone with this level of technology probably wouldn’t do something as stupid as taming monsters, I softened my aggressive stance.

 

I quietly spread my death force to take control of the entire village.

 

And I couldn’t help but be shocked once more.

 

There was only one human in this entire village.

 

And even then, it was a young boy around Jinu’s age.

 

‘At that age, having this level of technology makes him an incredible genius.’

 

With this level of capability, he would be a great help in Seoul’s reconstruction as well.

 

That’s why I cautiously called out.

 

“We came from South Korea to subjugate an S-rank monster. We’re sorry for barging in like this, but could we meet face to face and talk?”

 

I could see the boy in the house at the center of the village pondering over my request.

 

Since it would be hard to believe if someone suddenly showed up, broke down walls, and said such things, I decided to change my approach.

 

I sent Iram and Jinu forward.

 

“He seems to be around your age, so why don’t you two try calling out to him?”

 

“Me?”

 

“Me?”

 

“Yeah, he’s over there.”

 

I showed them both to the CCTV.

 

First, Jinu awkwardly waved his hand.

 

And second, Seo Iram, dressed in her saintess robes, stood in front of the CCTV.

 

For a moment, Seo Iram stared intently at the CCTV.

 

As if making eye contact with the boy beyond the camera, silence continued, then she slowly raised her right hand.

 

When Seo Iram smiled brightly and waved her hand lightly.

 

Crash! Bang!

 

Along with the sound of something rolling around, a boy came tumbling out of the distant house.

 

He really had rolled, as he was face-first on the ground.

 

“What a klutz.”

 

“Well, our Seo Iram is pretty.”

 

“…Seo Iram, could you heal that kid first?”

 

“Okay!”

 

As Seo Iram approached with steady steps, the kneeling boy’s hands trembled, and his face turned red as a beet.

 

He seemed like he wanted to say something but just stammered and hung his head low.

 

Unlike usual, Seo Iram stared intently at the little boy, then took his injured hand.

 

And when she offered a prayer, all the large and small wounds on the boy’s body were completely healed.

 

Of course, during that process, the kid’s face turned so red it looked like it might burst.

 

“Tch.”

 

Jinu clicked his tongue as if he was displeased.

 

* * *

 

Only after tidying up the surroundings somewhat were we able to enter the boy’s house.

 

Around the boy, a robot was attending to him.

 

Seeing it move without any particular commands, it seemed to have artificial intelligence installed.

 

Surprisingly, the boy didn’t let his guard down because we healed his wounds.

 

His attitude changed noticeably when the robot didn’t show hostility toward us.

 

“I’m sorry for acting so roughly at first…”

 

The boy, who had difficulty bowing his head, sat in front of us.

 

“That’s nothing to worry about. Rather, to live alone in such a remote area without any adults, you need that level of wariness.”

 

Since I didn’t even feel threatened, I sipped water while looking at the boy.

 

Soul Insight read the boy and recited information to me.

 

“Wow…”

 

“Hm? What’s with the sudden admiration?”

 

“Oh… it’s nothing much, I’m just amazed that you could build a village like this in such a remote area…”

 

At my praise, Cheon Hyeon perked up his ears and secretly smiled bashfully.

 

It seemed like he had been starved for such compliments living alone.

 

‘I absolutely, definitely need to take him with us, no, escort him with us.’

 

Even one S-rank skill is precious, but he has two of them.

 

Moreover, he even has A-rank skills that others would kneel and beg for just one of.

 

Where did such a gem come from?

 

His talent was enough to make me drool if I let my guard down, so I asked Hyeon-i as kindly as possible.

 

“What did you say your name was?”

 

“It’s Cheon Hyeon. My surname is Cheon, and my name is Hyeon.”

 

“I’m Cha Hyeon-su, and these are my companions.”

 

My companions introduced themselves one by one.

 

Especially when he heard Seo Iram’s name, Hyeon-i repeated the name once.

 

It seemed like he really liked Seo Iram.

 

Surprisingly, Seo Iram seemed to notice too, as she blatantly sat on my lap and leaned her head against my chest.

 

As if saying that if he wanted to get on her good side, he should be nice to me.

 

I secretly slipped a candy to Seo Iram and asked Hyeon-i.

 

“Is there any reason you must continue living here?”

 

“No, I only want to get out of here.”

 

“Then, if we suggested leaving together, would you be willing to join us?”

 

“That would depend on the destination.”

 

Surprisingly, unlike before, Hyeon-i was coolly observing the current situation.

 

Rather, that attitude made him even more trustworthy to me.

 

“Do you remember what I said earlier?”

 

“Uh… that thing about coming to subjugate an S-rank monster? Wasn’t that just something you said casually?”

 

“I’m serious. By the way, I’ve already eliminated all the S-rank monsters in South Korea.”

 

At my answer, Hyeon-i blinked in surprise as if he couldn’t believe it.

 

“Those… all of them?”

 

“Yeah, including all the bloodsuckers.”

 

Eyes full of doubt.

 

Honestly, even I would have been suspicious in this situation.

 

“You look suspicious.”

 

“Ah… it’s not exactly that, but…”

 

What need was there to say such things.

 

I stood up from my seat.

 

“If you can’t believe it, follow me. I’ll show you directly.”

 

At my question, Hyeon-i glanced over his other companions, then spoke to me again.

 

“You are…”

 

“Call me hyung.”

 

“Yes… Then, hyung, do you happen to know all about my abilities?”

 

“Why do you think that?”

 

At my question, Hyeon-i’s expression darkened slightly.

 

He clenched his fists tightly and bowed his head as he answered.

 

“In the Magical Realm where even parents abandon their children, there’s no reason to bother taking a kid you’ve just met.”

 

In that one sentence, I could see Hyeon-i’s trauma.

 

Several words swirled around in my mouth, but ultimately what I would say came down to one thing.

 

“Yeah, I desperately need your abilities.”

 

Rather, Hyeon-i’s expression brightened at my answer without flattery.

 

If I had spouted nonsense about not being able to leave a child behind or something about justice, it would have only increased his resistance.

 

And most importantly, I had one more trump card left.

 

“And one more thing.”

 

“What… what is it?”

 

“There’s a killer car outside the village.”

 

“Eh… a car?”

 

Hyeon-i looked at me with an expression that said ‘Who are you taking for a fool, what’s so special about just a car?’

 

I smiled and added.

 

“A car for Magical Realm pioneering that the United States developed while grinding their teeth.”

 

“Is… is that real?”

 

“Why are you so suspicious? Go see it for yourself.”

 

Hyeon-i’s eyes began to shine with indescribable brilliance.

 

* * *

 

Hyeon-i got in the car along with the robot that had been assisting him.

 

Then the robot scanned the car we were in and projected that information to Hyeon-i as a hologram.

 

“To connect the drive system to the main control unit so precisely like this… Wow, and nonlinear simultaneous equation modeling!? I thought this was only possible in imagination…!!”

 

He began rapidly firing off unknown terms while looking at the car.

 

I patted the thoroughly excited Hyeon-i’s shoulder and asked again.

 

“So, will you come with us, or do you want to keep living alone there?”

 

At my question, Hyeon-i asked me as if confirming one last time.

 

“What are you planning to do after taking me with you?”

 

He was already halfway won over, but I kindly explained anyway.

 

“I’m currently rebuilding a collapsed nation.”

 

Hyeon-i gulped and nodded eagerly, waiting for the next words.

 

“We have S-rank monster corpses, and the United States, Japan, China, and Russia are providing more supplies than we can use, but there’s nowhere to use them.”

 

Hyeon-i grabbed my hand firmly.

 

“Could I perhaps call you father?”

 

“…That won’t do.”

 

“Then, though this is our first meeting today, did I mention that I love you?”

 

“That I’ll allow.”

 

“Hyung-nim!!”

 

Hyeon-i ran over and hugged me tightly.

 

It was the moment I obtained an extraordinary monster genius boy.
