Chapter 43 - Joker

Some hunters prepare to help by attacking the troll chief. However, once again his arm was severed. Not because of Hyun, but rather being attacked by the orc chief.

Everyone is confused. Did they fight?

"Didn't I tell you, my sister is much stronger than you?"

Hyun then disappears, teleporting to Sera's place.

A warm palm touched Sera's cheek. "What's unnie late?"

Sera looked up, seeing a smiling Sylv. "Unn-"

"Sss.. focus, Sera"

"Humm!"

From within Sera's mind, the dragon uncle shouted giving instructions. "Good little girl! make them kill each other!"

"But dragon uncle, didn't that make them hurt each other?" Sera in her innocent tone.

"Hey little girl! How many times have I said that all monsters are evil and love to hurt humans?!"

"Evil Dragon Uncle?"

"Hey! I'm a special monster! different from that lowly disgusting creature!"

"Sigh! If you're not strong, just tell your unnie to cover your eyes and ears!"

"I don't want to! Sera wants to be strong..."

"Hoo... In that case, from now on you must follow all my words."

"That way, you'll quickly get stronger"

"Sera only obeys oppa and unnie!"

There, orcs and troll chiefs attack each other. Despite having a large body, the orc chief's movements were fairly agile compared to the troll chief. But even so, the incredible regeneration of the trolls was enough to make the orc chief a hassle.

The only weakness of the troll is its neck. But in this part, its thickness and violence were stronger than the full attack of the orc chief.

"Now, let's get rid of the second phase of the orcs," Sylv said softly.

The hunters who were around her still didn't realize that the one near them was Sylv. They were focused on the fight of the two bosses ahead.

"Kill?"

The troll chief was astonished to see the orc chief who was suddenly in phase 2 and went berserk with a mixture of gigantism and berserk. Makes the orc chief's body bigger.

While the troll chief does not have a second phase. However, in an urgent situation, it will harden its skin like on the neck. Tell the enemy to keep attacking until they are exhausted and can then be easily defeated.

Thinking the orc chief's rage was a threat, the troll chief immediately hardened his skin, waiting for the orc chief to attack until he exhausted all his strength.

However, "order troll chief to pull out his head"

Sera hesitated a little but, remembering that she should not be naïve, she carried out Sylv's orders.

"Kyaaa...!!"

Some hunters who saw the incident closed their eyes and turned their faces. Even though it was just a monster, the scene of pulling out the head with his own hands was something terrifying.

The Orc chief just stood still. Waiting for commands.

Blood flowed drenched the ground. The headless body of the troll chief fell.

"Woahh! It turns out that Sera's strength is extraordinary" Hyun was amazed.

"You guys attack the orcs! he won't attack!" said Sylv loudly.

"That's hunter Sylv!!"

"Since when..." said several hunters next to Sylv.

"Don't waste time!!" Sylv spoke up again, distracting the distraction of her presence.

The hunters began to attack. Little by little, the orc chief's body that was just silent collapsed. And the dungeon door also started to change color to blue and then disappeared.

"Finally we won!!"

Victory cheers fill every hunter. In the midst of the euphoria of victory, the three left.

"Hyun..."

A voice called out silently when she saw Hyun's back slowly moving away.

The sound of a warning announcing that the dungeon break had been completed echoed in every corner of Hanam. Everyone felt relieved and calm.

In the car heading back towards Seoul, Sylv asks how Sera feels after defeating two bosses at once.

"Sera feels a little guilty but..."

She looked at her unnie earnestly, "Sera wants to be strong!"

"Hahaha! just leave it to your unnie, Sera!"

"I'm also!! please teach your handsome and kind young brother!!"

Hyun raised his hand excitedly.

They laughed together.

…..

On the way home, Hyun feels a strange feeling. A feeling like, longing?

He looked out the window, looking for what and who made him feel it. "Hm, what's wrong Hyun?" Sylv asked from the front seat.

Hyun was hesitant to answer because he himself didn't know about the strange feelings he was experiencing.

Sera also looked at her oppa with a worried expression.

"No... just want to go home quickly and eat noona's cooking" Hyun tried to hide his feelings.

"Hahaha, sure! Noona will make a special dish especially for you"

Sera's eyes lit up, "what kind of cuisine is unnie?! I can't wait to try it!"

"Hoho! Wait then, Sara!"

On the side of the road, a blue-haired girl with green eyes, walked with some small children.

"Yeona unnie! What are you cooking tonight?" asked the little girl who was holding her hand.

Yeona tapped her chin, thinking about the food she was about to serve. "Hmm, how about the special chicken curry?"

"Curry?! Yeona noona is indeed the best!!" said the boy in front of Yeona who brought some groceries.

"But you have to obey me, don't you?"

"Humm, noona!" said the boy.

Making a few eyes look towards Yeona. "Ssstt!!"

They chuckled.

Meanwhile, somewhere that seemed to be very secret, Oliver stood in front of the door of a room and knocked on it.

"Ah! what are you, Oliver? come in"

Krieett...

"Ah! It's nice to see you again, Oliver!"

A black-haired person with an eye mask that hid a silver sparkle inside, greeted Oliver as if he were an old friend.

"Nice to meet you too, Castellan..."

"No, or you'd rather be called,,, Ace"

Castellan smiled.

"Enjoy your seat, Oliver"

Oliver sat on a comfortable sofa. In front of him, Castellan had sat with a little girl beside him.

"It's been a year since we've met and I still can't escape from her power..."

"Hahaha, I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable, friend"

Oliver closed his eyes, shaking his head. "So, what is the matter of what the leader of the strongest underground network is calling me?"

"It's an honor to be flattered by the strongest hunter in the world"

"Actually... I have a request" Castellan looked at the little girl beside him who was having fun playing with dolls.

Oliver seemed to know about his request. "What should I do with this girl?"

"Hahaha! You are indeed very sensitive"

Castellan looked at the little girl. "You know, I already consider Lumiere my own sister..."

"As an older brother, of course I want Lumiere to interact with children her age, so.."

"Please... take Lumiere out to see the world!"

Castellan lowered his head.

Hearing that, Lumiere's hand stopped and looked at Castellan with a sad expression. "Don't leave Lumiere alone, Castellan...."

Castellan patted Lumiere's head plan. "Of course! I will always come when Lumiere calls, however..."

"Castellan wants Lumiere to be happy and not fixated on the past"

"But..."

"Ssstt... Didn't Lumiere want to have a lot of friends in the past?"

Lumiere's gaze is down.

"You love me right, Lumiere?" Lumiere immediately raised her face and nodded.

Castellan was smiled.

"Then, does Lumiere want to listen to my deep request?"

Lumiere looked hesitant, but then she nodded.

Castellan smiled again, patting Lumiere gently on the head.

"Now, Lumiere introduces yourself to that ahjussi" Castellan said while pointing to Oliver.

Lumiere stood up and lowered her head, giving a greeting.

"My name is Lumiere and Castellan gave me this card"

A card with a picture of a joker.

"Nice to meet you, ahjussi"

She bends down to salute.
