Auto Hunting

Episode 114

The ape looked shocked.

There were very few creatures of that size that didn’t die after he attacked them. Furthermore, this creature was even standing upright and provoking him. It thoroughly annoyed him.

Kraah-!

The ape roared angrily. It was loud enough to shake the entire ground. However, his opponent seemed unfazed.

‘Let’s see…’ Yoo-seong’s mind was somewhere else.

His senses were slowly roaming every corner of his body. His heart, which had previously been beating with anxiety and exhaustion, was now calmed.

It was now completely under Auto-Hunt’s influence.

‘What changed?’

He checked his bones and muscles, his arms and legs. Of course, they were now energized by new fuel, but it seemed that nothing much had changed.

His core.

‘That’s what changed,’ he decided.

The heat that constantly boiled in his lower abdomen felt different. Something beyond his understanding had been created in his core.

Then again, what was Yoo-seong’s limited knowledge compared to the vast field of nature?

For humankind, CE was practically a new discovery with a very short history. Researchers had judged the Jade Pill as full of impurities because it was filled with unidentifiable energy.

However, Auto-Hunt knew what to do with it. Now Yoo-seong’s core had changed.

‘And here.’ Yoo-seong looked at the top right part of the Auto-Hunt view.

There was another change there: a rectangular-shaped object lying horizontally, with what seemed like vertical bars filling it. It was a very familiar shape to Yoo-seong and everyone in modern times.

“Battery?” he muttered. Suddenly…

Dooung-!

The Thunder Ape moved. The six humps on its back were raging violently.

Jeeee-!

Like a lightning rod, the ape’s ivory horn glowed after it had been struck by lightning.

Electrical sparks enveloped its dark brown body. It was as if electricity had the same effect as steroids, as the ape’s muscles appeared to have grown more massive.

As it prepared to launch forward, the asphalt it was standing on collapsed due to pressure. Then…

Quazzik-!!

The Thunder Ape leaped. It had a transcendental level of acceleration that made it look like it had disappeared from its spot.

In less than a second, it was already upon Yoo-seong, its fists filled with electricity. Meanwhile, Yoo-seong did not move.

Getting hit in the groin was painful, but it was impossible for this creature to penetrate its skin and inflict internal injury. Most of all, he might not even be able to approach it once it had filled itself with the maximum amount of electricity.

Kuung-!

Lightning continued to gather in the ape’s ivory horn. It had no way of knowing that, six months ago, another entity of its level had committed the same mistake.

The Turtle Dragon and its pillar of flame.

Yoo-seong stood his ground, unmoving.

The monster’s instinct sensed that something strange was happening. However, before the ape could understand what it was…

Clink-!

A sword appeared on Yoo-seong’s left wrist.

From it, red flames erupted. It had the energy of the dragon’s fire, comparable to that of the ape’s electricity.

Kuung-!

The last lightning bolt made its way into the Thunder Ape’s horn. But this time…

Taang-!

The flaming sword on Yoo-seong’s wrist shot out a pillar of fire in the ape’s trajectory.

Beep-

Yoo-seong’s CE was being replenished almost as quickly as he consumed it, and the fire raged continuously.

Despite colliding with a lightning bolt, Yoo-seong was not damaged at all due to the strength of the dragon’s fire.

Kaa-!

The Thunder Ape quickly stepped back.

Although it hadn’t been able to capture the last lightning bolt, it still had a lot of power stored in its horn.

One blow would finish this creature off.

However, its opponent was already upon it. It only took a moment’s delay. In a battle between two monsters, a moment was all it took.

Goo-oh-!

As the Thunder Ape stepped back, Yoo-seong used the opportunity to approach it, covered by the glare of lightning and fire. Then, with all his Aura focused on his wrist blade…

Fuwoouk-!

A single blow without reservation struck the Thunder Ape in the middle of its eyebrows. This time, Yoo-seong’s sword penetrated the beast’s tough skin.

Thousands of degrees of heat cooked the monster’s brain in an instant.

This marked the end of the battle.

***

The sound of a helicopter approaching.

Yoo-seong barely lifted his eyes at the sound as he sat on the corpse of the Thunder Ape. He was deep in thought.

‘It won’t be easy,’ he decided.

He had quite a few things to go through. After his incident with Chairman Leto and Kodama, it would be a tough battle to get proper recognition of his achievements for this hunt.

Dudududu-!

Yoo-seong was expecting a Japanese official to get off the helicopter.

‘Whatever they say,’ he thought, ‘I will not give this up.’

Soon, he saw shiny black shoes stepping out of the helicopter. ‘Those shoes are…’

“Yoo-seong!” the owner of those shoes yelled cheerfully.

“Huh?” Yoo-seong stared blankly at the man who ran to him and hugged him.

“We did it! We did it!” The middle-aged man was ecstatic.

‘Why is this person here?’ Yoo-seong remained puzzled.

Yang Chang-guk stood before him with a wide smile.
