chapter 27
27 episodes
Berserker opened the door to an abandoned house, which would not be strange even if it collapsed immediately. In the house, a mixture of bloody and musty smells bothered the sense of smell, but it is the naturalness of everyday life.
His footsteps stopped in front of a corpse with his head and limbs shredded and his chest exploded. Artistically ripped to anyone who sees it.
“A stupid death befitting a stupid guy.”
It was a feeling that came out of nowhere.
What a absurd death after pretending so well.
“No, it might be that the head breaker is that great.”
The pseudonym of the puppeteer known as immortality was real, so it would be right to say that the head breaker that found and killed was great.
“·················ogue.”
Standing in the room, Berserker closed his eyes and accepted the remaining force flow in the room. A few hours ago, I saw a view of the room. The signals emitted by the puppeteer were controlling the puppets, the blue eyes piercing through the room, and the lightning bolts piercing through the signals the puppeteers had created.
What was hidden in it was a huge murderous intent that was hard to even imagine.
The madness that seems to go crazy just by looking at it from the side.
There was a crazy person in the world who made it laughable for the world to call him a Berserker.
“Wow!”
Berserker, who had shaken off the madness that was trying to swallow even himself, laughed.
“I don’t know how far what I saw is real.”
Everything was in chaos.
It wasn’t that the puppeteer was found dead by stupidity. What are the pupils revealed in the room and what is the thunderbolt digging through the flow?
I tried to read it over and over, but I couldn’t find it all.
In the end, he gave up and left the abandoned house and arrived at a place about 5 km away.
In the intense battle traces, Berserker tried to sense the battle flow between the doll and the head breaker.
But this time it was wrong. Headbreakers fight with lightning bolts that destroy everything they touch. But there were no traces of it here.
rather.
“…why do you feel the scent of the eraser?”
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t understand it. However, the fighting style of the Head Breaker was not felt, and the only thing that filled it was the presence of the Eraser.
“Is the eraser a head breaker? For what reason?”
Was there any reason for the civil servant Hunter to disguise himself as a villain? I tried to put the puzzle together with several clues, but when the picture didn’t fit, I gave up.
Instead, he assumed the opponent as an eraser and accepted the force flow.
··········!!!
Berserker’s eyes widened with the pain pounding in his chest. A huge murderous intent and madness that could not be compared with before swept inside.
Is this really the size that a person can have? Under the worst will to swallow him just by recognizing his existence, all he could do was take a deep breath.
“…more reasons to watch Headbreaker.”
I just wanted to see who the hell he was.
Putting aside his thoughts, Berserker shouted toward the thick grass.
“Come out.”
“·················ogue.”
“How long do you plan on watching?”
“…a normal contact.”
What appeared was a man dressed as a salaryman with an ordinary face. However, what I felt from him was the ability to be active in a large guild at the level of level 5.
Normally, you wouldn’t have to meet like this.
Berserker laughed when something interesting was about to happen.
“Where are you from?”
“I came from the Shinsung Guild general management team. This is Youngtan Lee, the deputy team leader.”
“Did you tell me to watch?”
“I was told to deliver words and objects precisely.”
“Tell me.”
“This is a message from the head breaker. He told me that Berserkers would be here, and I’ll call you if we encounter them.”
Then he took out his smartphone and handed it to Berserker.
“·················ogue.”
Berserker looked at his smartphone and stretched out his hand. After a while, the bell rang. I didn’t know how to connect the call, so Lee Young-tan told me to push it aside, and the connection was made. A voice came from over the smartphone.
– Berserker.
“Are you a head breaker? Do you have something to say to me?”
– I’ll kill you soon, so don’t install it, stay still.
“What?”
– Set the desired date and time. It would match that kind of décor. One last meal together and call back. It’s okay to use tok. do you know how to write?
The call was cut off with that. Berserker, who was staring blankly at his smartphone, exploded in madness.
“Wow, ha ha ha ha! You are crazy!”
Kwajik!
A broken smartphone.
“·················ogue.”
Berserker stared blankly at the powdered smartphone. Without a sign of embarrassment, Lee Young-tan pulled out another smartphone and held it out. Berserker looked at it without saying a word and accepted it.
Also, if it breaks, there is no way to contact it, so I put it in my pocket so it doesn’t break.
Then he regained his composure and smiled again.
“Keek, this will be fun.”
‘Crazy guys.’
The guy who took me through Berserker’s jaw saying he wouldn’t die anyway.
Someone who’s laughing because he says he’s killing himself.
Both were the same guys.
Only Lee Young-tan, who was caught among the crazy ones, was about to die.

After finishing the puppeteer, I headed to the Shinsung Hospital where Yoon-hee was hospitalized. Choi Yoon-hee, single room. Even if it is not a major injury, it is a benefit given first. That’s why people seem to want to join the Holy Guild.
When I went inside, I saw a guy wearing a patient uniform and turning red and red with an intact complexion.
That’s why I told you not to contact your parents. It wasn’t a serious injury, so I listened to him. It’s not because the intestines were ruptured or the stomach was split so that the contents came out one after another.
I heard from the nurse that he ate three bowls of rice, but the size of one bowl was great. Even at home, rice or side dishes ran out quickly. When I asked if you ate it all, there was an uproar, and the culprit’s shouting doesn’t seem to change. I put down the fruit basket.
“Are you okay?”
“uh? Why did you come? I’m leaving tomorrow anyway.”
“My brother is in the hospital, but I have to come and see if he is breathing.”
“Is that what you mean to my injured brother?” is a joke, thank you for coming. If it wasn’t for you, I would have died.”
I shook my head as he spoke with an awkward expression.
“No, you did well. It held up very well.”
“Still, I feel how bad my skills are. Should I have worked harder? No, I just canceled my words!”
Yoon-hee, startled, tried to pick it up, but heard everything.
“I’ll roll more when I get discharged.”
“No, I was wrong. Enough for now.”
“I don’t think so.”
“Is that enough? I was talking about gifts.”
“Gift?”
“I was just ranting. I wondered if it would be different if I had a gift. No one has it.”
The proportion of hunters who have gifts is very small. However, most of the hunters with high-level skills possessed the gift.
The gift gives the hunter special strength.
In the early days of the Awakening, some countries even experimented with living things to unlock the gift, but the results were unsuccessful. I am probably the only one who can figure out the type of gift by blood intake.
I watched Yoon-hee and threw the bait.
“What if there was a way to get the gift?”
“Is there such a way? really?”
I pretended to think for a moment, then nodded.
“I have.”
“Then tell me! I want a gift too. I want to become stronger.”
“It’s a bit risky.”
“it’s okay.”
Is it because of the desire for strength? In my last life, it seemed like I was longing for strength before I became a hematoma, so I was a little concerned.
not. If you keep rolling on that longing, your thoughts will disappear as well. If you let go of your power, other desires will disappear as well. I’ll have to roll the gift opening as an excuse.
“Once you get good treatment, you can improve your condition. Let’s talk again after that.”
“okay. I remember everything he said, so don’t say you don’t remember later.”
“okay.”
If Yoon-hee has a gift, she’ll be better at hunting.
But wouldn’t you be surprised to have to draw blood near the heart?
I decided to think about it later.
“ah! and. Are you really watching?”
“yes?”
“Did you see me dealing with dolls?”
I thought it was a nightmare, but I remember exactly the situation at that time.
“no.”
“I think I was watching.”
“·················ogue.”
The narrowed eyes followed me tenaciously. I think we’ll be able to try it a few more times in the future, but there’s no reason to reveal it already.
“Miss, there is no evidence.”
“Did you dream?”
“No, it was real! And take some of that.”
Yoon-hee pointed to the large pot on the table.
“What?”
“Open it.”
I grabbed the lid and checked the contents.
It was the owl’s head that was greeted with a sweet smell. My eyes moved with my gaze.
It was a doenjang hotpot with an owlbore head as a base. How is this here?
“Dahyun unnie brought it with me to take care of my body. Did your brother recommend it? it’s crazy? Are you crazy? Are you crazy?”
“This is comfort food.”
“I ate the rice in the soup, but I can’t stand following those eyeballs. Dahyun unnie said that the eyeballs are the best, how do you eat those? My brother eats it.”
“okay.”
I went home with an owlbore head miso hotpot at Yoon-hee’s strength.
It was an unexpected big harvest.
* * *
By the time I returned to the National Guard, the atmosphere of the entire Republic of Korea had subsided as the death of Kim Young-hwan was known as breaking news.
It’s a level 8 death, no one else. Although it was said that he was aging, the ripple effect was great as the shadow of Kim Young-hwan was thick.
As a result, there was a theory of responsibility for Jung Joo-ho, but it became quiet when it became known that I had captured the puppeteer. However, inside the civil servant organization, where morale was low, they lamented that the initiative had completely shifted from the government to a large guild.
In their opinion, it was virtually impossible to catch a Berserker without the cooperation of a large guild. The government said it would put a budget to nurture the level 8 Superman, but the blind money just goes into the pockets of others.
I’ll keep a close eye on it, and if I get the privilege of non-arrest, I’ll have to put it down.
Anyway, things were moving as Lee Se-hee said. As time goes on, there will be more things that can be requested when the negotiating table is set up.
“Come on.”
For a moment, Jung Joo-ho’s face was halved. The only thing that didn’t look dark was because he removed the puppeteer and saved his face. It’s my fault that I didn’t check the body.
Shall I go and pick it up now? I’m late because I’m not feeling well after a few days. Next time I’ll have to cut my hair beforehand.
After all, no one knows the puppeteer’s face.
“You removed the puppeteer, right?”
“Yes.”
“No, so. It’s called immortality, how did you get rid of it?”
“Puppetry uses the waves of the Force to control the puppets. I found the source of that wave. It was there. The puppeteer’s own brute force was insignificant.”
“Didn’t you bring the body with you?”
“I broke my head. I said that Lee Se-hee can testify if necessary.”
“Do you really need to go there? I’m sorry, but I have to understand.”
Jung Joo-ho, who was scratching his head, said.
“Still, I survived thanks to you. How upset was the death of Minister Kim Young-hwan. That’s the inspiration As you get older and your skills drop, you will probably back down in moderation.
“I’m glad you got it sorted out.”
Officially, Joo-Ho Jung is behind me. I hope you will be motivated and help me for a long time.
“Anyway, I live thanks to you. What if it wasn’t for you?”
“The atmosphere seems serious.”
“The government is going to die. It is true that the yangban was strong even though his personality was broken. If you go in vain like that, you will surely raise even your own successor. Tttttttt! From my point of view, it will be difficult to get out of any other place.”
“·················ogue.”
“On the other hand, if you are now level 8, your value will increase. Not a bad development for you. It’s funny that someone’s death benefits someone.”
It’s refreshing to see the annoying human being gone, but he laughed bitterly, saying that he would be inferior in a battle for dominance with a large guild in the future.
“Chief.”
“Uh, why?”
“Can you help me negotiate when I get to level 8?”
more likely to be rejected Jung Joo-ho has been a civil servant all his life and has been loyal to the country, so you can think that my actions infringe on the interests of the country.
But as soon as he heard my words, Joo-ho Jung raised the corners of his mouth.
“Hey Junho. I honestly have been waiting for you to say that.”
“Yes?”
“Honestly, there is no other government like me. I’ve been a civil servant hunter all my life, and there’s no one up there that I don’t know. They know where they grew up and what they ate.”
“Please share that information later.”
I’ve already found something to wipe out.
“… Once you know that you have a hammock, cancel it. If you lose your hair, do you lose your memory? Can’t remember? Anyway, as long as you ask me for help, I will fully help you. Are you from the National Guard? I have to give it to you.”
I was able to get information. So close.
However, if you stimulate it a few times, the necessary information seems to be pouring out.
“I thought you were going to infringe on the national interest.”
“What is infringement? If you don’t get it anyway, everyone else gets it. Did you see that the support was organized to foster level 8 this time? It’s all blind money. It’s much better to use it to seduce you than to go through the assholes of stingy bastards. I’ll rip the government right. Trust only me.”
“I believe.”
It seems that this yangban has accumulated a lot during that time.
“So it is.”
“yes?”
“I’m trying to catch Berserker.”
“You haven’t given up yet?”
Jung Joo-ho, who was smiling brightly, was surprised and ripped his hair out.
can you do that?

My relationship with Berserker goes back to my last life.
The guy who came with the crazy thing called the composition of nothing was a maniac who wanted to complete his own world in a standard different from others.
It was not revealed until just before he died that he was level 8 and that he was a gift owner.
This time the gift was not revealed, but it was revealed that he was level 8.
However, the words you said to me are memorable enough to leave me thinking that he is an unusual guy in my memory.
“I said it was a stellar moment.”
Berserker pursued talents that could inspire him.

Maybe that’s why I followed the traces of the eraser. The guy said he was afraid of death, and he tried to catch a glimpse of a star’s moment, even at the risk of death.
I don’t know if he saw it until the moment he died. But the obsession for power was real. Even though I was 60 at the time of death by my hands, I hid all the secrets to become stronger, far from regressing my skills.
Berserker – when are you coming?
Berserker – I have already arrived.
Berserker – I’m tired of waiting. This is also a seasoning for pleasure. haha!
Berserker-[Picture attached]
Berserker – You can come early if you have time.
This kid must have been interested in asking if I didn’t know how to write.
You’ve been texting me 3 hours ago.
Why are you sending a selfie with Ji? The size of the photo was also terribly large.
I left exactly on time.
When we arrived at the appointed place, we saw a Berserker sitting on a tree stump as shown in the attached photo.
“Sir Jeong. I almost got tired of waiting.”
“Who’s early and long?”
“I was so excited I couldn’t stand it.”
“Crazy.”
“Kuk Kuk!”
It’s nice to hear a swear word and laugh. Maybe Jung Joo-ho is right. This guy is really crazy. If we hang out together, I think I’ll be dyed too.
“Did you put some holes in your stomach?”
“enough. I have a question too.”
“What?”
“Are you the eraser?”
