Chapter 95:

What a strange thing. It’s chilly today, so why does sweat seem to pour from my tear ducts? But there’s no time to feel down like this. This place is nothing less than the center of the incident.

“Heukh!”

“How did you get in there…!”

“Appraiser, are you okay?”

I spoke to the hunters outside who were filled with astonishment.

“It’s okay. Everyone, please calm down.”

Since getting in was easy, as long as I made up my mind, I could leave anytime. There was no reason for me to feel rushed.

No, on the contrary, this is a good opportunity. It’s easier to spot weaknesses from within the barrier.

“Hmm.”

I rolled my eyes and glanced quickly at the monster in the center of the flower field. Then, cautiously, I asked the employee outside the barrier.

“Hunter Seonwoo Yeon?”

“Yes?

“But that monster. Are there any separate physical attacks?”

Seonwoo Yeon shook her head at that question.

“No, according to the registered information, the Flower Baron only inflicts psychic damage…”

Well then, the results are out. I said, pointing backward with my thumb.

“Then while I’m here, I’ll take a quick look inside and come back out.”

“Yes?

“It’s easier to work on that side. Perhaps the barrier itself has a weak structure inside.”

After hearing this, Seonwoo Yeon let out a surprised voice.

“No, but that’s…”

Just by looking at those eyes, I could roughly guess what she was trying to say, but fortunately, there wasn’t much overall resistance.

“Oh! Really, you’ll do that?”

“Anyway, as long as we can break through the barrier…”

“Wouldn’t that be okay?”

“That’s right. You’re already effectively blocking the brainwashing!”

The other hunters seemed to roughly agree with my statement. The Flower Baron is a simple boss that only uses psychic attacks. First of all, this situation has already been going on for 3 hours.

‘Everyone probably wants to finish quickly.’

Just five minutes. I made a promise to return within five minutes and immediately set out to investigate the barrier without delay.

‘There are so many flowers, but there is no scent at all.’

Ssssk.

The lush plants blooming on the floor touch the soles of my shoes. But I completely ignored this feeling and focused on the barrier.

‘Let’s see, the structure seems roughly… Wow, is that monster directly supporting such a large barrier?’

Really. No, but thinking about it makes me angry again. How can you compare a rare genius like me to dust? Although I am currently trapped in this shitty body due to circumstances, in the past, I really…

“Uhm?”

At that moment, I briefly turned my gaze toward the unfamiliar magic emanating from my surroundings.

A substance that contains a large amount of mana compared to its small volume. Isn’t this definitely a magic stone pattern commonly found at gates?

‘A magic stone in a flower garden?’

I bent down and looked at the floor. Then what I see is a blue gem shyly sticking its head out between some flower buds.

‘Oh.

Upon closer inspection, I found that it was a rare, high-quality magic stone. Additionally, it has unusual metal prongs around it that resemble the prongs of a ring, and this scarcity is usually considered a good factor in the market.

‘Just looking at it, it’s a valuable item.’

I’m not sure why this valuable item was lying around loosely, but in any case, there didn’t seem to be any dangerous reaction from it…

Glance.

Others won’t be able to see what I’m doing because of the distance.

‘Hehe. What kind of luck is this?’

Without much thought, I picked up the magic stone. I gently pried open the flower bud and took a quick peek at the contents inside.

“────!!”

“Ahh!”

“My ears!”

But I never thought that such a small action would lead to this kind of result.

“Ugh!”

Suddenly, a loud high-frequency sound burst from somewhere. The source of the noise was none other than the ruler of this flower garden.

“────!”

The Flower Baron trembles and lets out a roar as if about to collapse into the air, flailing wildly.

‘I was wrong. Baron!’

I was very nervous, thinking this was a bad sign, but what followed was an even more outrageous scene.

Boom!

What on earth is going on? The Flower Baron is not just disappearing into dust in an instant. Moreover, the flourishing flowers around are withering away suddenly, and even the barrier is crumbling at the end.

“What?”

All of this happened in just one moment. freewebnoveℓ.com

“Huh?”

And that was at the same time I pulled out the magic stone.

***

By now, even if he didn’t want to, he realized it. That magic stone was none other than the power source of that monster. However, since some F-Class suddenly removed the power source, the Baron must have suffered a sudden energy shortage…

– Let’s see, the structure seems roughly… Wow, is that monster directly supporting such a large barrier?

However, as he said before, the monster maintained the barrier ‘directly’ with its own mana. In other words, its body was consuming an enormous amount of mana every second.

‘Ah…’

So, well… To summarize, that’s right.

The Flower Baron was sucked dry of its mana by the barrier it had set up, essentially self-destructing in a scream of agony.

‘What is this kid?’

If this were Alphauri, wouldn’t this be considered one of the top three dumbest deaths?

[Magic Stone -> Flower Baron -> Barrier]

No, if it connects this way, of course, accidents will happen.

[Magic Stone -> Barrier]

If it had supplied energy directly, it wouldn’t have died. Moreover, this method is much simpler.

In other words, this is an accident that is completely incomprehensible from the Archmage’s perspective….

‘What on earth?’

Let’s say that the use of magic stones is inefficient. Then why on earth was such an important item lying around in a flower garden?

‘Is there no survival instinct?’

Kim Kiryeo was very puzzled by his opponent’s sloppy behavior, but in fact, it was his mistake. The Flower Baron also made some preparations.

-The flower garden?

First, the monster had over ten thousand flowers bloom within the barrier to protect its power source. This means it wrapped the stone with petals that blocked magical detection and constantly moved its location.

–Hehe. What kind of luck is this?

But a certain tactless and capable Archmage saw right through this.

“────!”

Moreover, Flower Baron’s last attack just before its death was blocked in vain. Even if it squeezes out all the strength it can muster, in the end, its means of attack is mental-type magic.

“────!”

Even the powerful brainwashing that would make an A-Class hunter collapse didn’t work on this hunter.

‘Ugh, it’s noisy!’

A B-Class monster like that couldn’t have interfered with Kim Kiryeo’s mind in the first place. The man’s brain is being controlled by a larger, unknown being.

-Boom!

And so, Flower Baron met his powerless death, feeling his brainwashing bounce off. That was the end of it all.

“Phew.”

But how would they understand such a complicated situation? Kim Kiryeo considers this to be just simple luck. He didn’t think it was a big deal.

“Anyway, it’s good…”

But at that moment.

“Huh?”

The awakened people outside the barrier hurriedly ran as if possessed by something.

“Hunter-nim! What on earth did you just do?”

“Y, you took down Flower Baron in an instant…”

“Even if all of us attacked together, we couldn’t have brought down that creature at that speed!”

What followed were parrot-like questions. How did he kill the boss? Why did the barrier disappear? What did he do earlier?

Kim Kiryeo blinked his eyes at the barrage of questions pouring out in an instant.

“It just died on its own, though?”

“What?”

“I didn’t do anything special. It just died. All I did was pick up the magic stone…”

However, during their conversation, Kiryeo suddenly felt a strange gaze and quickly stopped talking.

-Click.

That sharp shuttering sound. Right after reincarnation, I had no idea what it meant, but now I roughly grasp the picture.

‘Camera!’

Someone is taking pictures nearby.

“Uhm?”

Moreover, it wasn’t all that difficult to find the photographer either. When he turned his head a little, there was an Earthling with nothing but a cannon-like camera running towards them from far away.

“It’s a reporter!”

“Wow, it’s not even some kind of hyena. How did they know the boss was dead and come here right away?”

“Has the restriction been released outside already?”

After hearing the word ‘reporter,’ Kiryeo’s expression hardened.

‘I can’t afford to be kidnapped again…’

Hasn’t he already learned that there is nothing good about being famous as an F-Class? Of course, he came prepared to some extent for his face to be recognized at the reported crime scene, but he still lacked the courage to deal directly with reporters.

“H, heuk! Hello, hunters! Could I have a brief interview with you?”

So, Kiryeo took advantage of the moment when the reporters were talking to the A-rank hunters to quietly finish his preparations.

“So, how did you defeat the Baron?”

“Oh, that wasn’t us, it’s the appraiser over there… Huh?”

In simple terms, it means they were caught off guard.

***

That evening.

On YTV’s 6 o’clock news, there was a report announcing the extermination of Flower Baron.

[The subjugation of Flower Baron, which started in the morning, has finally ended.]

However, the internet’s reaction was lukewarm. The incident was successfully resolved thanks to the efforts of the hunters who were dispatched today. Because people didn’t necessarily show interest in such simple content.

[Comment 0]

[Happy: 2] [Sad: 0] [Angry: 0]

In the end, the follow-up report on the Hanshin incident received a low number of views and was buried in a sea of ??information.

However…

[Comment 88]

This article here, in contrast to the article, sparked an explosive response.

The results of the Flower Baron hunt. Why are people so interested in this place even though it clearly covers the same topic?

The reason was right in the content of the text. This SNS post was, to be precise, correcting the media’s incorrect reporting.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Wow YTV News;;

I saw it for the first time in a while because it came out.

They just said ‘The dispatched hunters defeated the boss.’

It almost got me ??

And then I roughly pieced together my interview.

I’m sending it out, but if I do this, people will think I’ve caught the boss~~

We didn’t kill the Baron!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The name of this account, ‘Gukpulne’, was the nickname used by an A-Class hunter in Korea.

Since he is an awakened member of a famous hunter team, it is natural that his posts attract the attention of netizens.

[Heuk ??? Didn’t your team catch the boss?]

[Then who is killing it?]

The number of comments on the post gradually began to increase.

[Some appraiser came and killed it in 3 seconds.]

[Did you drink alcohol?]

[It’s true;]

[?lol]

[No, really, why did the appraiser make a 3-second cut of the boss and then walk away? When I think about it again, I find it absurd ???]

The A-class hunter carefully recalled what he had experienced in the morning and wrote down his message.

[During the day, I and the other Class B members gathered together to make a live show to break the barrier, and suddenly an employee of the association brought someone over. But after listening to the story, I heard that he was an appraiser. He said he came to work on his analysis skills.

So, I was looking around for a moment, wondering if that was the case…]

[??]

[Why did that appraiser suddenly break through the barrier?]

It was truly shocking at that moment. Even the A-Class couldn’t figure out how to breach the iron fortress, yet this unidentified man passed through effortlessly as if it were nothing.

‘What kind of skill did he use?’

In the early stages of the incident, the evacuation of civilians was so successful that the hunters were unable to identify the conditions for breaking through the barrier. As the information gap widened, misunderstandings inevitably grew.

[Besides, I was surprised by this alone, but the next time, the appraiser messed around in the barrier and the boss died??]

[Wow.]

[What did he do exactly? But in the end, we never heard the strategy. He suddenly left…]

He tapped on the keyboard in vain.

[Anyway, he really did all this work.]

[So who is the appraiser?]

The A-Class hunter couldn’t answer that question clearly. For this reason.

[I was curious about that too, so I watched the news, but I couldn’t find anything that came out properly. I guess he himself declined the interview.]

Even though he is capable of killing boss monsters that hunters were struggling with in an instant, he never exposes his identity to the media.

[Do you remember what he looks like?]

[Yes, but it seems like he doesn’t like his face being known, so I’ll keep this a secret. I just wanted to make it clear that we didn’t catch the flower baron.]

People showed interest in the mysterious awakened person.

[I know who that person is]

[Who is it?]

[Oh, I don’t know his name, I just saw him from afar. His hair was blonde??]

[Blonde beauty appraiser??? he got everyone except me]

[Are you crazy?]

Now speculation began circulating in more public forums rather than just anonymous message boards on the outskirts.
