My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 120
Episode 120. Narukami Family (Complete)
She wanted to believe it was a lie.
That her only brother was the one who killed their parents.
To her, who was so shocked she couldn’t say a word, Gaien whispered.
“Hikari, listen carefully. Uncontrollable power is a disaster.”
“Uncontrollable power is a disaster…”
“But there’s an even greater disaster. Results that can’t be changed no matter how hard you try—that’s an even greater disaster.”
It’s confusing.
What is he talking about right now?
She trembled her pupils roughly as she looked at her parents’ cold corpses.
Though she had never seen them directly, she seemed to know.
Mom’s nose is exactly like mine.
Dad’s lips are just like looking in a mirror.
Ah.
“Urgh!”
Hikari couldn’t hold back and retched.
But since she hadn’t eaten anything, nothing came out.
Gaien placed his hand on Hikari’s head as she repeatedly dry heaved and whispered softly.
“Unlike that failure, you can change results through effort and control your power. You’re truly a gift from heaven.”
“Blech! Urk!”
“So you won’t harm your family with insignificant talent like your brother, let’s train together, Hikari.”
“Yes…”
“I’ll make you the best.”
And so she began training.
Under Gaien, thinking Narukami Rai was evil.
Thinking he was a false family head who ran away with the family crest.
She lived for years.
She trained for years.
And she realized.
That she had become a puppet without knowing it.
* * *
“…How did you realize that?”
“Is a life of barking on command while wearing a collar and handcuffs truly enjoyable?”
“…”
“I didn’t think so. It was so boring and unpleasant that I wanted to die.”
So she actually tried to die.
She closed her eyes tight and threw herself into an A-rank Sudden Gate.
But by chance, she encountered the person she least wanted to meet there.
“…Brother didn’t recognize me.”
Because so much time had passed.
She recognized Rai immediately, but Rai didn’t recognize her.
Rai, seen from a distance, was the complete opposite of what she had thought.
It was hard to believe he was a coward who ran away because he feared the responsibility of being family head—he was leading the charge against monsters.
It was hard to believe he was a murderer who killed his family—he was sacrificing his own body trying to save civilians from monsters.
Just then, a monster charged toward the frozen Hikari.
She couldn’t even react and was about to be killed by the monster.
“But then brother saved me.”
A complete stranger of a girl.
Rai protected her even as his left arm was shattered.
Bleeding profusely, he looked at her sitting behind him and smiled wryly, saying:
“I have a little sister about your age too.”
“…”
“I miss her since I haven’t seen her in so long, but I can’t return as long as that despicable uncle doesn’t die.”
Having said that, Rai discharged all the electricity accumulated in his body and shouted.
“I can’t die before getting revenge on that despicable uncle, so run away without worry… Isn’t that just like brother?”
She had no choice but to flee from the scene.
She couldn’t even think to reveal that she was his sister.
Why?
Because the reality she had believed in for years was shattered, and the shock was beyond imagination.
The person she thought was her lifelong enemy was an ally, and the person she thought was an ally was the enemy.
She didn’t know who to trust, and right now she just wanted to escape this situation.
Hikari, who left the scene, finally reached one conclusion.
“Uncle killed our parents and drove out brother to devour the family.”
A conclusion infinitely close to the correct answer.
She soon realized that the conclusion she had reached was correct.
From then on, she put on a mask and began thoroughly acting like the usual ‘puppet.’
To someday strangle the circus master.
She was slowly trying to grab his throat with her own hands.
But.
“If brother attends the banquet, everything will go wrong.”
A madman crazy enough to kill his blood-related siblings.
The person she wanted to protect was about to walk directly into that man’s grasp.
She had to stop it.
But how?
Publicly, she hated her brother.
The precariously connected ‘setting’ would surely break at the slightest crack.
So she had to find a third party outside the crack.
“And that was me.”
“…Yes.”
Whew…
I sighed and pressed my brow firmly.
I thought it wouldn’t be a light matter.
But somehow, listening to it, it was a much heavier matter than I had expected.
‘I wonder if it’s okay for an outsider like me to hear this…’
Though I was the one who asked her to tell me.
I clicked my tongue and sat back down.
“Anyway, what the hell is this Gaien guy’s deal?”
“…I don’t really know either.”
Tsk.
I came to catch Macheongoe, but what I actually learned about was the story of an insane S-rank Hunter.
‘I should take back what I said about all S-rank Hunters being crazy.’
Compared to Gaien, Seong Yu-mi and Do Pi-hyeon weren’t strange at all—they were extremely normal.
Heo Hyeon-yun is… maybe a little similar though.
Anyway.
“Just that alone isn’t enough to call it 99.9%. It’s not just me and Rai on this side.”
“There is. There’s decisive evidence that makes it 99.9%.”
“What’s that evidence?”
“I don’t know the details, but uncle said he would soon be able to wield tremendous power called magi—”
Thud.
The air instantly grew heavy.
Hikari, who had even stopped breathing, looked at me with trembling eyes.
“That thing, explain it again.”
“Y-yes. A few weeks ago, Uncle told me he would soon obtain tremendous power and suggested we use magi together.”
“You didn’t actually use it, did you?”
“I haven’t even gotten close to it yet. I haven’t.”
Phew.
Then that’s fortunate.
I let out a sigh of relief and ran my hand through my hair, muttering.
“Crazy bastards always end up crossing the line.”
I thought he was just ordinarily crazy.
Turns out he was genuinely insane.
‘Anyway, I found a clue even before Sunday came.’
I succeeded in finding the Macheongoe figure related to the S-rank promotion exam.
But.
“…Uncle said he’d be away until Sunday.”
“Sunday is definitely.”
“Yes, the day of the banquet.”
He left without telling anyone where he was going.
Because of that, no one could know where Gaien had headed.
All we could do now was wait until Sunday came.
“So please, I’m begging you. Please prevent my brother from attending this banquet. Something… I have a really bad feeling about it.”
“I’ll say it again, I refuse.”
I can’t agree to this.
Isn’t that obvious?
“We applied for the S-rank promotion exam to chase after that power called magi.”
“…What? What do you mean…?”
“To put it simply, it’s like this.”
A voice came from outside the window.
Soon the door opened and Seong Yu-mi, sitting in mid-air with the moonlight behind her, waved gently at Hikari.
“Good evening, eldest daughter of the Narukami family.”
“…Could you be Korea’s S-rank Hunter Seong Yu-mi?”
“Correct! See, I’m famous, right? Even recognized overseas.”
“Senior, that’s celebrity syndrome.”
“Shut up!”
Creak.
Jeong Chan-woo entered through the door.
Behind him stood Im Seung-hun and Cheon Yu-na with a shocked expression.
“T-to think such things would happen in an S-rank Hunter’s family…”
Guild Master, unsavory things always happen behind the scenes.
“Like how you quit being a Hunter because your hair fell out?”
“T-that wasn’t unsavory, Black Dragon hyung!”
I chuckled at Im Seung-hun’s indignant shouting.
“Stay here for now. It doesn’t seem right to send you back to that house.”
“…Yes.”
Sunday.
That’s when we’ll catch Macheongoe.
And so the deep night slowly passed.
* * *
The next day.
As soon as I opened my eyes, the burning smell hit my nose, so I came out of my room and quietly looked toward the kitchen.
“…What are you doing?”
“Ugh…”
Hikari wearing an apron.
She quietly averted her gaze and hid the burnt fried egg behind her.
“There’s no point hiding that when the burning smell is everywhere.”
“Hup…!”
Did she think she needed to serve something since I helped her?
I shook my head and gestured for Hikari to step aside.
“Originally, this kind of thing should be done by someone who knows how.”
Crack.
I broke an egg onto the heated pan and quickly prepared breakfast with things I’d roughly observed.
“Just help me carry these.”
“Yes.”
A modest meal consisting only of rice, soybean paste soup, and fried eggs.
Hikari carried the prepared 7 place settings one by one to the living room…
“Excuse me.”
“What.”
“Why are there 7 place settings? I remember there were definitely 6 people yesterday…”
“Oh, that?”
Munch munch.
I replied while eating the fried egg Hikari had just burned.
“I called your brother too.”
“…!?”
Hikari jumped like a startled cat.
Soon she quickly turned around as if trying to run away, but.
“It’s already too late. He said 1 minute left.”
“Still-.”
“Oh, by the way, that text came 1 minute ago.”
Hikari looked at me with an expression like the world was ending.
Soon, at the sound of the front door opening urgently, she creaked as she turned her head.
I lifted all the remaining place settings except 2 with mist and leisurely walked to the living room.
“…Thank you.”
For a moment I thought I heard some voice with a tingling sensation from beside me, but it must be my imagination.
I thought so as I walked down the corridor.
“Hikari!”
“B-brother…”
It’s better to clear up misunderstandings when you can.
Especially if they’re old misunderstandings.
* * *
“Black Dragon’s cooking seems better than Chan-woo’s.”
“That’s a bit hurtful. I even have a Korean cuisine certificate.”
“What certificate doesn’t Jeong Chan-woo have? To think you’d have a cooking certificate too.”
“I don’t have a pufferfish preparation certificate. Since I serve someone who wouldn’t die from eating poison.”
Well, an S-rank Hunter wouldn’t die from pufferfish poison.
I nodded and patted my full stomach before flopping backward.
“Today was Friday, right?”
“Right.”
“What should we do until Sunday?”
“Aren’t you nervous?”
“If it’s something I have to do, then I’ll do it.”
No matter how strong they are, could they be stronger than Kargon?
I’m just curious about what kind of place Macheongoe is.
Seeing me yawn lazily, Seong Yu-mi got up from her seat.
“Where are you going?”
“I’m going to investigate a bit more. Cross-verification is always necessary, right?”
“I’m also thinking of going out to help you, senior.”
“Me and the Guild Master are going out too. Unlike you folks, we’re weak, so we need to do something called preparation.”
Seeing Cheon Yu-na nod her head vigorously as if agreeing with those words, I clicked my tongue softly.
So I’ll be alone then.
No, wait.
If I count the siblings upstairs who are crying their eyes out, that makes three.
Either way, the fact that everyone is going out doesn’t change.
“We’ve finished cleaning up, so we’ll be going.”
“Yes, go ahead.”
I waved my hand lazily toward those heading out the entrance.
After seeing the car they got into drive away, I turned around and trudged toward my room.
“Squeak squeak, squeak squeak squeak.”
“Are you asking if we’re not going out anywhere?”
“Squeak.”
“Who knows.”
I’ve done everything I needed to do.
The fact that I lost interest in foreign countries sooner than expected also played a part.
“Foreign countries are just places where people live too.”
Yesterday was quite eventful, but I think I’ve seen all the places worth seeing.
Starting from the marketplace to residential areas, the park, and even the dilapidated mansion.
After seeing it all, how should I describe my assessment?
Should I say this place isn’t that different either?
‘I wonder if other countries would be like this too.’
But that’s as far as it goes.
It didn’t really spark my interest.
“So I’m going to rest a bit.”
More than anything, I’m a bit worried about leaving those two people alone.
Entering my room, I lay down on the cold floor and turned on my phone.
Like that, 10 minutes, 20 minutes.
After lying down and looking at my phone for about an hour, I slowly sat up and muttered.
“Three… no, four?”
On the roof of the inn.
The presence I could feel there.
That number was increasing one by one as time passed.
How is this not going against my expectations?
Letting out a long sigh, I loosened up my body lightly.
“I thought they’d come, but they’re quite late.”
Since Hikari suddenly disappeared last night, I thought they’d come to greet me.
Going out to the porch, I looked up at the sky.
“They’re just going all out, huh?”
These people gathering power as if they intended to destroy the entire inn.
Clicking my tongue, I bent my knees and exploded mist beneath my feet.
If they’re coming out like that over there.
[Mist – Rampage]
I should respond accordingly as well.
Pulling up the corners of my mouth, I shot forward rapidly and thrust out my right hand.
And then.
“—!”
A roar loud enough to hurt the ears.
Decorated the sky.
