My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 104
Episode 104. Unreported Gate (1)
After hearing the full story, Seong Yu-mi arrived at the guild office in an instant with Jeong Chan-woo through teleportation.
“Black Dragon, are you certain it was the work of a guild called Villainous?”
“Unless my eyes are worthless.”
“Then it’s certain.”
Until the two arrived, I had watched the CCTV footage over and over again.
The more I watched it, the more certain it became that the culprit was the Villainous Guild.
“Have you located the Villainous Guild’s position?”
“No, it didn’t come up.”
“That figures. People who do this kind of thing always hide their bases thoroughly.”
Tsk.
Seong Yu-mi clicked her tongue and lightly waved her hand.
Jeong Chan-woo, who immediately understood her intention, nodded his head.
“I’ll find it right away.”
“As quickly as possible.”
“Yes.”
Jeong Chan-woo nodded and headed somewhere.
Seong Yu-mi, who had given him orders, entered the office with heavy steps.
“How terrible.”
The scene still bore clear traces of how they had toyed with their opponent.
She muttered while staring down at the bloodstains remaining in the office.
“…Cases like this do happen quite often.”
As if suppressed.
Or as if forcibly suppressed.
Seong Yu-mi’s tightly compressed voice filled the office reeking of blood.
“Black Dragon, you know what? Society is running like complete shit right now.”
Seong Yu-mi raised her head and looked at me with a voice that had brightened as if nothing had happened.
“These days, any Tom, Dick, or Harry easily gains great power. But nobody wants to take responsibility for that power.”
That’s why the Association exists.
To take on the responsibility they won’t bear.
“The Villainous Guild, was it? They’ll be the same.”
Only taking the benefits of being hunters.
Those who absolutely refuse to bear the accompanying responsibility.
Great power should come with responsibility, but they only wield that power.
Cheon Yu-na’s kidnapping must also be one of those consequences.
“The heads of those who pull this kind of shit are filled with nothing but envy and jealousy toward those stronger than themselves.”
Snap.
Seong Yu-mi lightly flicked her finger.
Then the destroyed office slowly began returning to its original form.
“Chan-woo, have you located their position?”
Seong Yu-mi asked as if nothing was wrong.
But for some reason.
She seemed extremely angry to me right now.
No, maybe she really was angry.
Unlike her smiling lips, her eyes were rigidly hardened.
“From my investigation, the Villainous Guild seems to be located not far from here. It only takes about 20 minutes to get there.”
“That’s close.”
Just 20 minutes.
They pulled this kind of stunt while being only that distance away?
I let out a hollow laugh and clenched my fist tightly as I spoke.
“Let’s go.”
Now that the location was identified, there was no need to dawdle.
I walked out of the building together with Seong Yu-mi, Jeong Chan-woo, and Im Seung-hun.
* * *
“…This is really the place?”
Getting out of the car, I frowned and looked at the building before my eyes.
I couldn’t believe it.
And for good reason – the building in front of me was a 2-story house in the same Jang-won-dong.
The unmaintained courtyard was messily disheveled, and vines grew haphazardly on the brick walls.
A shabby house that anyone would describe as abandoned.
And I was quite familiar with this house.
“If it’s here, it’s only a 5-minute walk from my home.”
The semi-basement house where I live.
If you take the shortcut, it’s only a 5-minute distance.
I had passed by this place several times coming and going, but I had no idea until now that there was a guild in such a place.
No, I didn’t even know if people lived here in the first place.
A building that showed no trace of human presence to that extent.
But I couldn’t doubt Jeong Chan-woo’s information.
Naturally.
Because I could sense the presence of multiple people and lingering traces of mana from the old building that seemed untouched by human hands.
Clenching my fist tightly, I took the lead and walked toward the entrance.
“…”
Opening the rusted entrance, acrid dust greeted me.
Covering my mouth with my sleeve, I immediately clenched my right hand and struck the wall.
“One down.”
Crumble.
The collapsing wall.
From beyond it, a man with a blood-stained face collapsed weakly.
“How stupid.”
Did he think such an ambush would work?
Anyone could see this was completely obvious.
Grabbing the collar of the falling man to lift him up, I threw the man straight into the closed door.
“Kuhup!”
The man flew backward, smashing through the rotten door.
And ended up crushing whoever was hiding behind the door.
“You useless bastard! Get lost!”
Smack!
The man who shoved away his fellow comrade rushed toward me.
Before I could even throw a punch at that man.
“How noisy.”
A sharp icicle that shot out from behind pierced through the man’s leg.
The man opened his mouth wide to scream from the pain of his flesh being torn, but Seong Yu-mi didn’t even allow that.
Because fragments of mana flowing from her fingertips became eternal frost and sealed the man’s mouth.
Seong Yu-mi didn’t stop there and completely trapped the man in ice.
Seong Yu-mi, who knocked over the unconscious man trapped in ice with a gust of wind, shrugged her shoulders.
“Well, I have no intention of half-assing this either.”
Saying that with a grin, Seong Yu-mi instantly spread her mana.
Seong Yu-mi’s mana filled the entire space.
Then, soon after, sounds of wailing and people collapsing began to be heard from all directions.
“So this was Hunter Seong Yu-mi’s work after all.”
“Correct! Black Dragon, you’ve already experienced this in the Association’s underground, right?”
The phenomenon of twisting mana flow that I experienced during the A-rank promotion exam.
Seong Yu-mi had just used it quite simply.
I turned my head to look at Jeong Chan-woo and Im Seung-hun, who seemed unaffected.
“You two seem fine?”
“Since we experienced it first, we’re used to it.”
“…I’m not used to it though? My stomach is churning?”
“If you didn’t collapse, then you’re used to it.”
Im Seung-hun muttered “Is that so…” and rubbed his disheveled hair.
Anyway, after Seong Yu-mi withdrew her mana.
I spread my mana again and quickly assessed the number of fallen people.
“…Only six people.”
Elpinire had definitely said there were twelve attackers.
At least that meant there were more people here than that number.
The fact that only six had collapsed meant.
“Below.”
They must be somewhere other than the 1st and 2nd floors.
Clicking my tongue, I looked down at the floor.
The mana I had felt from outside wasn’t coming from inside the house.
It was coming from below the floor I was standing on.
“I didn’t know this house had an underground level too.”
From the outside, it looked like a shabby 2-story house, but apparently there was an underground level beneath it.
Looking around, I walked toward the stairs leading underground, opposite to the stairs going up to the 2nd floor.
As I went down to the underground, I discovered something unexpected and stopped in my tracks.
“A Gate?”
A dimensional door glowing with blue light.
What was in the underground was none other than a Gate.
“So it was an unreported Gate after all.”
A low, sunken voice came from beside me.
Turning my head, I looked at Seong Yu-mi with her dark eyes.
“I had roughly expected this from when I saw it outside. The mana waves were too uniform.”
They were far too uniform to have been produced by a person.
That’s why Seong Yu-mi had thought there would be a Gate here from the moment she first discovered the house.
“Black Dragon, do you know about unreported Gates?”
“…I don’t know the details.”
I had heard about them, but I didn’t know the details.
After all, during my month of work, I could count on my fingers how many times I’d left Gangnam.
“You know that Sudden Gates close after time passes, right?”
If you leave a Sudden Gate alone, a Gate Break occurs and the Gate closes.
To prevent this Gate Break, you must enter the Gate directly, clear out the monsters, and close the Gate.
In short, Sudden Gates are destined to close, whether naturally or intentionally.
“But Regular Gates are different, aren’t they.”
However, Regular Gates are different.
Regular Gates don’t close even after time passes.
Therefore, Regular Gates were legally required to be reported to the state immediately upon discovery.
“But would villains follow that rule?”
“Probably not.”
Villains are essentially criminals by their very existence.
There’s no way such people would follow such laws.
Therefore, some villains didn’t report Gates and used them as their own exclusive property.
The Villainous Guild was probably the same.
With darkly sunken eyes, Seong Yu-mi clicked her tongue and muttered while checking the mana waves flowing from the Gate.
“C-rank… no, this level would be about a B-rank Gate.”
The difficulty of a Gate varies according to the intensity of mana flowing from it.
At this current intensity, it would be a B-rank Gate at most.
I turned my gaze to look at the Gate in response to Seong Yu-mi’s words.
“So you can assess that.”
“Black Dragon, you’ll quickly learn to assess it too after going through a few. Gates are surprisingly honest.”
Unlike people who always betray you.
Seong Yu-mi muttered faintly, barely audibly, and walked toward the Gate.
I quietly watched her back as she moved forward.
“…”
Those words she muttered at the end.
I don’t know if she thought they wouldn’t be heard because they were so small, or if they came out unconsciously without her knowing.
‘This is a first.’
This was the first time I’d heard Seong Yu-mi’s voice so devoid of emotion.
A mechanically cold voice without even any tonal variation.
I wondered what expression she was making right now.
I couldn’t tell from just her back, but I was certain it wasn’t a good expression.
“Tsk.”
Clicking my tongue, I followed alongside Seong Yu-mi.
I didn’t bother turning my head toward her.
Arriving at the Gate before her, I slowly opened my mouth.
“I’ll go in first.”
“Then I’d be grateful.”
Whoo.
Taking a small deep breath, I stepped into the Gate.
A floating sensation enveloped my body.
Along with a feeling of rising up, my vision flipped.
What greeted me was.
“I knew this would happen.”
Dozens of blades rushing at me from all directions.
Why does nothing ever fall outside my expectations?
I immediately released black mist.
The blades shot to pierce my skin were ultimately blocked by the mist.
Seeing those holding weapons beyond the dark mist, I lightly stomped my foot.
[Mist – Shadowless]
Dark mist extending in all directions.
Those who held onto their weapons until the end were swept up in the extending mist and rolled on the ground.
I crushed all the fallen ones with mist and moved forward.
“Hmm… you look the strongest.”
About a dozen villains crushed by the mist.
Approaching the man with the most powerful mana among them, I placed my foot on his chest.
“I’ll ask you one thing.”
“Kugh, krgh…!”
Creak.
Weight gradually pressed down through my foot.
Applying weight until just before his ribs would break, I looked down at the man and asked.
“Cheon Yu-na, where did you hide her?”
“I don’t kno—”
“Oops. I accidentally put a little more weight on it.”
“Aaaaaaahhhhh!”
A shrill scream flows from the mouth of the man pinned to the ground.
How ridiculous.
His bones aren’t even broken, just cracked at most.
To think he’s screaming over something this minor.
‘When they themselves did far worse things.’
With darkly sunken eyes, I cleared away the mist that was pressing down on the man.
Then I reached out, grabbed the man by his hair, and lifted him up.
“I’ll ask one more time. Where is Cheon Yu-na?”
“Huff, huff…”
I looked at the man with empty eyes that held nothing.
The man’s eyes, stained with pain and fear, trembling as if an earthquake had struck.
1 second, 2 seconds.
After a brief but not brief time that felt like an eternity, the man shouted loudly.
“Behind, behind us! She’s in the underground of the guild building!”
“Guild building? You mean that house where the gate was?”
“No! Inside the gate! I’m talking about the building inside here!”
“…You’ve really been living it up, haven’t you?”
To think there’s even a building inside the gate.
Clicking my tongue, I threw the man far away.
The man rolled pathetically on the ground and hit a tree, his neck twisting at a strange angle, but that wasn’t particularly my concern.
Whether he lives or dies isn’t my business.
Lightly dusting off my hands, I turned my head.
There was Seong Yu-mi, looking around at the surroundings that had already been cleaned up.
“You heard that, right?”
“Yeah, it seems like it was a more serious organization than we thought.”
“I also didn’t expect it to be a group of this scale.”
Saying that, Jeong Chan-woo drew his sword from the scabbard at his waist.
As the blade revealed itself, the surrounding trees were all cut in half at once and fell.
All directions that had been hidden by the trees were clearly revealed, and a single gray building soaring high into the sky came into view.
“…Is that it?”
Underground of that place.
That’s where Cheon Yu-na is imprisoned.
Fiddling with the potion Seong Yu-mi had given me in my pocket, I headed toward the building.
