My Right Hand Is Too Strong Episode 6

Episode 6. Orc Lord

The Orc Lord ignored the surrounding orcs and wore a deep smile as it watched the prey charging straight toward it.

A leisurely smile, as if enjoying the sight of a weaker being struggling in vain.

How irritating.

That bastard is looking at me like I’m some decent prey with potential.

Being looked down upon isn’t my style.

So I too wore a similar smile and raised the blade of my right hand.

“Kuooooo!”

Thump!

As I drew closer, the Orc Lord struck the ground hard.

Then, fragments of the cracked earth erupted around the Orc Lord.

Four fragments imbued with fresh mana energy.

The Orc Lord lifted the fragments high and hurled them at me.

Fragments cutting through the wind as they shot forward.

What had initially been mere stone fragments were shaved and carved during flight, becoming sharp daggers.

Sharp.

A direct hit would definitely pierce through.

But I didn’t dodge.

Instead, I was only staring at the dagger flying at the front.

When the earth dagger approached close range.

I immediately swung my right hand and deflected the earth dagger.

The earth dagger blocked by the solid black dragon scales.

Having reduced the first shot dagger to powder, I immediately rolled to the side.

The second dagger struck directly where I had been charging just moments before.

Having deflected two daggers in an instant, I pushed off the ground with my left hand and immediately got up.

“Hup!”

Whoosh-

My right hand swinging wide horizontally as I rose.

The scaled palm and the following black mist devoured both daggers shooting toward me.

Having erased all the fragments, I kicked off the ground again upon landing.

The speed wasn’t particularly fast.

Only my right hand was affected by the ‘Black Dragon’s’ influence.

My two legs were merely those of an ordinary ‘me’.

But that’s fine.

This is enough.

I raised the corners of my mouth and charged toward the Orc Lord.

The Orc Lord watched me and struck the ground again.

The mysterious intangible force of mana gathering, along with earth fragments erupting upward.

It seemed to be planning to create daggers again.

However.

“Hup…!”

I was already urgently braking my body and pulling my fist back.

Throwing a punch now would absolutely never reach.

The distance between the Orc Lord and me was considerable enough to warrant the word ‘absolutely’.

But knowing this, I still stopped and clenched my fist tightly.

[The Lord of the Twisted Underworld is slightly satisfied watching you utilize the mist.]

[‘Mist ‘ technique ‘Shadowless ‘ is generated.]

[Shadowless ]

[Extends the black mist like a shadow to use as an extension of the body]

Because my right hand now could easily shatter a word like ‘absolutely’ and more.

[Mist – Shadowless ]

The shooting fist.

The swirling mist.

And.

“Krrk…”

The collapsing Orc Lord.

The Orc Lord with a massive hole in its abdomen collapsed powerlessly.

I had been adjusting my stance to follow up with additional attacks, but seeing it crumble, I exhaled the breath I’d been holding.

Then I lowered my head to look at the black smoke remaining like an echo on my right hand.

Mist.

The word referring to the black fog flowing from my right arm.

At first, I thought it was just smoke.

I thought it was merely visual effects that came with strengthening my arm.

But it wasn’t.

The mist has ‘physical force’.

That physical force was more impressive than I thought, and I realized it depended on how I used it.

So I utilized it when blocking the earth daggers.

This time I utilized it the same way.

To reach an enemy that couldn’t be reached.

That’s all.

“But why is this guy also a one-shot?”

It’s an Orc Lord.

If it’s B-rank, shouldn’t it at least take two hits?

More disappointing than expected.

Most importantly, the synchronization rate didn’t increase either.

I clicked my tongue softly and turned my head.

There, the surviving orcs had lost their fighting spirit and were sitting collapsed on the ground.

I trudged across the blood-stained earth to deal with the remaining orcs.

* * *

Right after dealing with all the orcs.

I headed toward the gate while muttering.

“How much money would I get if I sold all this?”

I chuckled and looked inside my pocket.

Colorful gems piled up full.

These were all magic stones that came from killing orcs.

I remember C-rank monster magic stones being worth quite a bit, and there are even B-rank monster magic stones here.

I should be able to make quite a lot of money.

I’m in quite a good mood.

However, separate from feeling good, there was a problem troubling me.

“I never expected the synchronization rate wouldn’t increase even with B-rank monsters…”

This is an unexpected situation.

I thought the synchronization rate would increase with at least B-rank monsters.

“But in the Tutorial Tower, it increased even with goblins. Why did the difficulty suddenly go up?”

[The Lord of the Twisted Underworld answers that such mere orcs could never satisfy them.]

What complete bullshit.

Just be satisfied in moderation.

I let out a long sigh and shook my head vigorously.

The synchronization rate doesn’t increase with just one B-rank monster.

What this meant was clear.

To satisfy the Black Dragon, at minimum an A-rank monster was needed.

Since promotion exams were held once a month, it meant I’d have to wait at least 6 months to become an A-rank Hunter.

[The Lord of the Twisted Underworld gazes at you.]

Gasp!

My body trembled instinctively.

The weight of the air settling on my shoulders had changed.

The atmosphere had shifted.

A feeling as if time was flowing slowly.

Frozen stiff, I rolled my eyes to read the system message that appeared.

[The Lord of the Twisted Underworld yawns in boredom.]

[The Lord of the Twisted Underworld declares that if you don’t raise the synchronization rate to 1.5% or higher within a week, he will take over your body.]

Damn, how fucking considerate of him.

Even telling me exactly when he’ll steal my body.

‘I take back what I said about it being okay since we could communicate.’

It’s not okay.

He’s just a crazy bastard.

I graciously gifted my middle finger to the damn impatient ‘Black Dragon’ and muttered.

“One mountain after another.”

Frowning, I clicked my tongue and racked my brain.

How could I raise this stubborn synchronization rate?

Just as I thought that.

[Additional reward generation complete!]

A different system window from the one announcing the ‘Black Dragon’s’ dialogue appeared in my vision.

When I checked the skill given as a reward.

[Unique Skill: ‘Tower of Recording’ has been generated.]

[Tower of Recording]

[The Tower of Recording permitted only to you who has been acknowledged by the Tower’s Guardian. You can enter the Tower of Recording when using this skill.]

[※The monsters appearing in the Tower of Recording are significantly stronger than those in the Tutorial Tower. Please exercise extreme caution]

I let out a low rumble and smiled with great satisfaction.

How could I resist this?

Just when the perfect skill appeared.

For a moment, I even considered sneaking into a high-rank Gate while avoiding the government officials’ eyes.

As Han Mi-reo, a proud model taxpayer of the 21st century, committing illegal acts was a bit.

Just a tiny bit bothersome, but I need to survive to pay taxes, right?

So I had even considered that, but it was no longer necessary.

“Monsters significantly stronger than the Tutorial Tower. Then the synchronization rate should increase too, right?”

Seeing how the system even gave a warning, they must be really strong.

From the looks of it, it seemed like a “be extremely careful when challenging this” kind of feeling.

“I don’t have time for that.”

If I had that time, I would have just slowly raised my Hunter rank.

Returning my hand to normal, I lightly loosened my wrist and turned toward the Gate exit.

“I should go home first.”

Even if I was going to enter this place called the Tower of Recording, doing it here felt a bit wrong.

I should at least enter from home, why would I enter from such a remote place?

I returned home with much lighter steps.

* * *

“Treatment is complete, miss.”

“Thank you, uncle.”

Her body was perfectly fine, with the torn wounds completely gone.

The woman bowed to the uncle who had treated her and walked alone down the quiet corridor.

“Black Dragon…”

The person who had suddenly appeared and saved her.

It was so sudden that she couldn’t even ask his name or what rank Hunter he was.

The only information she had was just ‘Black Dragon’.

Even that was merely fragmentary information she had picked up from what the man had quietly muttered.

She walked down the corridor and quietly took out her phone, pressing the gallery.

“I’ve never seen him before, but he’s amazing.”

On her phone was a photo showing blood-soaked ground and scattered green flesh.

And the image of a massive orc collapsed with a huge hole pierced through its abdomen.

Running away would have been normal, but she had secretly followed him, worried she might encounter the orc again.

She was also curious.

Just how strong of a Hunter he might be.

That’s how she clearly witnessed him killing the Orc Lord in one blow.

She was ignorant about the Hunter industry.

So while she couldn’t know the details, she could definitely tell that this situation was absolutely not ‘normal’.

She looked at the photo on her phone and quietly clenched her fist.

“…I thought I could finally prove my worth this time.”

She had awakened by chance.

She thought that if she became a famous Hunter, her family would acknowledge her.

So she had headed to a nearby F-Rank Gate, but everything had gone completely wrong.

Getting on the elevator, she went down to the first floor and turned on her phone.

“At times like this… I should check Hunter Net.”

Hunter Net, the most actively used Hunter-related community in the country.

Before becoming an Awakened, she never paid attention to it, but after awakening and checking it once, it was more interesting than expected.

Because of that, since awakening, she always checked Hunter Net posts whenever she had spare time.

So as she tried to check the posts…

“What is this?”

It was filled with posts she couldn’t ignore.

[Did you see the orc that appeared in the F-Rank Gate?]

[I heard Jung Chan-woo from the Awakened Association went to handle that]

[Above post resolved; Kim Tae-seong went to handle it]

[Kim Tae-seong vs Seong Yu-mi]

Every single one kept mentioning people who weren’t even at the scene.

She couldn’t stand it.

So she decided to write a post on Hunter Net for the first time in her life.

[I’m the person involved in the very hot F-Rank Gate incident right now]

Just got home and writing this post, but an orc appeared there today

It was really fucking huge

It came charging while smashing trees and I really almost died

(Photo of badly scratched, blood-stained hands)

Taking questions before I put disinfectant on my hands

If there’s no answer, it means I applied the medicine

-Crazy lol why is there an orc lol

⨽(Author)I don’t know either;; Suddenly ran into an orc and ran like hell;;;

-Is it real that an orc appeared?

⨽(Author) Yeah, I’ve seen orcs that are twice as big as regular orcs

⨽If we’re talking about higher-tier orcs, there’s only orc lords wtf

-You faced an Orc Lord and lived? Bullshit lol

⨽(Author)It’s real;; Someone called Black Dragon something came and saved me

⨽Black Dragon? Who’s that

⨽(Author) Me too, what?

⨽(Author) He burst orcs in one hit then headed alone to where there was a huge orc

-Someone called Black Dragon went alone to the Orc Lord?

⨽(Author) I was worried so I went to check, but even the big orc was already dead and gone ㅇㅇ

Stop bullshitting around;; From what I’ve never heard of, this Black Dragon bastard seems like F-rank trash too, so how the hell would he kill an Orc Lord? Black Dragon is just some cringy middle schooler fantasy bullshit lmao ㅋㅋ

⨽(Author) It’s real, I have photos too

⨽Post them, if it’s real I’ll send a chicken gift card

⨽(Author) ㅇㅇ ㄱㄷ

This was her first time writing a post, was this how you were supposed to do it?

The response was hotter than expected.

Feeling somewhat excited, she unknowingly smiled and quickly wrote a new post.

[Proving this isn’t bullshit]

(Photo showing blood-stained ground and brutally slaughtered orc corpses, along with an Orc Lord collapsed powerlessly with a massive hole in its abdomen)

I told you I wasn’t bullshitting, right?

This was all done by that person called Black Dragon

I’m going to enjoy this chicken haha

-No way crazy, why is this actually real

⨽(author) send it lol

-Holy shit, Black Dragon Seat is scary as hell

-Who is Black Dragon-sama?

-A new S-rank Hunter has appeared

-No matter how many times I look, this is insane for real

-Wow fuck, an F-rank killed an Orc Lord?

⨽I work in the industry and that level is a massacre, everything was handled in one strike;

⨽Proof please

-Did the Black Dragon roar?

That’s seriously super strong though lol

-So everyone who entered the F-rank dungeon survived thanks to this Black Dragon person?

⨽Absolutely, without Black Dragon the Orc Lord would have led the orcs and over half would have died

⨽You’re a hero ㄷ;

⨽Fucking hero indeed

-So who is this Black Dragon person?

⨽Don’t know

⨽The Awakened Association will probably announce it

It hadn’t even been a minute since posting, but dozens of comments had already appeared.

Receiving attention for the first time, she stammered as she read the comments.

“But I never said Black Dragon was F-rank…”

Somehow it had become an established fact that this Black Dragon person was an F-rank Hunter.

What if that person got angry?

The joy disappeared and worry and fear filled the empty space.

Because of that, she took down the post she had written just 5 minutes after uploading it.

“It, it should be fine… right?”

Rolling her eyes around, she was too overcome by rising fatigue to think any deeper and turned off her phone.

The elevator had reached the first floor long ago.

“…I need to hurry home and sleep.”

She was mentally exhausted.

Letting out a long sigh, she trudged out of the building.

The 30-story building she emerged from had a sign reading ‘Hwiseong Group’.
