83 – Hunters and Hunters(Complete)

***

Hannah Kim bit her lower lip with her perplexed expression and glanced sideways at her left hand. Kim Hanna’s left hand was neatly amputated. Her bones and tendons were visible. Blood gushed out of her. The sight was so unfamiliar. Hannah Kim rolled her eyes.

“Whoa… ….”

She took a deep breath.

Keep calm. First of all, we need to stop the bleeding from her wound.

Bleeding too much. If done wrong, hemorrhagic shock may occur.

She was wary of Ryu Ye-rin with a glance.

It was because Ryu Ye-rin was able to attack suddenly.

However, Ryu Ye-rin’s eyes were fixed on her severed left hand, not Kim Hanna.

Yerin Ryu picked up her left hand as it was lying on the ground. In the meantime, Hannah Kim took out her finest healing potion and spread it over her wounds.

The moment her healing water touched the wound, she felt an indescribable pang of pain, but Kim Hanna never let out a sound of her pain.

Something like air bubbles bubbled up at the wound.

The wound was healing rapidly.

But she was nothing more than first aid.

Unless you graft the left hand that Liu Yerin is holding, she won’t be able to heal completely.

“You said this glove artifact?”

Yerin Ryu peeled her glove off her amputated left hand.

A bizarre pattern was engraved in the middle of the black background.

A relic called ‘Hill of Swords’, it had the ability to create a certain amount of swords.

It was a relic with a very simple function, but it must be quite useful for swordsmen who use swords as consumables.

“Good. Good.”

Ryu Ye-rin, wearing her gloves, raised the tail of her mouth slightly.

“… ….”

Kim Han-na quietly observed Ryu Ye-rin.

The loss of her gloves was quite lethal.

Even if you burn your weapon, I will replenish it endlessly.

I think it would be better to give up the idea of incapacitating Ryu Ye-rin by burning her sword.

‘…… But why did Ryu Ye-rin’s sword burn all of a sudden?’

So far, I tried to burn Ryu Ye-rin with a sword imbued with white flames, trying to burn her weapon, but it didn’t work.

Even if it touches Hannah Kim’s dagger with flames, Yerin Ryu’s sword is just fine without a trace of scorch.

However, when Yerin Ryu just cut Hannah Kim’s left hand, she reflexively set fire to her body to defend herself, and the pure white flame transferred to Yerin Ryu’s sword.

‘Looks like you’ve defended yourself with your abilities so far. I couldn’t do that when I just cut my hand. What kind of ability is that?’

A bit confused.

I have no idea what kind of ability it is.

So it’s dangerous to allow any more access.

‘I didn’t know they would give up their left hand so easily even if they allowed access… ….’

I just remembered the amputation of her left hand.

Hannah Kim was a master of the sword.

Commonly referred to as a master, it means someone who has reached the limits of a field.

In that sense, Hannah Kim was a sword genius who had mastered most of the swords and even acquired a master’s qualification.

I was confident even if I faced Seong Baek-hyeon, the head of the Seong family and praised as the best sword in the peninsula.

Even if you couldn’t defeat him with swordsmanship, you wouldn’t have been easily defeated.

However, Hannah Kim’s left hand was amputated despite not mixing swords with Yerin Ryu several times.

I knew that Ryu Ye-rin had defeated Seong Baek-hyeon, but I never imagined that she would be to this extent.

‘Technology? Technology? No, it’s not like that.’

A gap in consciousness?

A small gap that occurs habitually.

She stabbed that place without hesitation.

She was very good at outwitting people.

‘I didn’t even use proper swordsmanship in the first place.’

Yerin Ryu didn’t even take her form and ceremony.

She also ignored the three basic elements of the sword, the ceremony, the law, and the art.

And the axis of her footing, the center of gravity, and the distribution of power were also a mess.

Indeed, like an ordinary person who does not know a sword, he burrowed into his arms and swung at random.

But the result?

‘…… It seems like I wielded it randomly, but it completely destroyed my sword skills and penetrated the gaps.’

It was as if he had caught all of Kim Hannah’s movements and took the most efficient action.

‘…… It’s not normal. Even if he had the ability to foresee the future, he wouldn’t be able to do it that far.’

Hanna Kim was silent.

It was not a good choice to approach Ryu Ye-rin unless her ability was unknown.

‘Should I use this too?’

I wanted to refrain from using it as much as possible because the usage conditions were difficult, but I had no choice.

Hannah Kim slowly touched the Japanese sword hanging from her left waist.

As she placed her hand on the hilt of her sword, a cold, gritty feeling spread from the tips of her fingers.

Her relationship and yo-yo energy rose like a haze.

The true identity of this sword is the magic sword Muramasa.

A Noble Phantasm stolen from Kohei Kuroda, a Japanese S Rank Hunter.

From noble mtl dot com

Famous as a cursed sword, this sword has the ability to absorb the owner’s power and release it into the ship.

But in return, he demands a large amount of blood.

That’s why I can’t use it often.

“… ….”

“… ….”

They just stared at each other silently without saying anything.

Kim Hannah naturally twisted the handle of her sword tightly and spread her legs slightly apart as she assumed the posture of her sword.

A newly created Hwamun Baekgeom by combining Ildoseonggeom’s sword technique and Kim Hannah’s white flame ability. It had considerable power as it reinterpreted and recombined the one sword.

So far, I have killed 1 S-Rank Hunter and 8 A-Rank Hunters with this swordsmanship.

There was no need to doubt the practicality of this swordsmanship.

“…… Whoa.”

“… ….”

Liu Yerin frowned at her.

It is similar to the one-handed sword’s sword posture, but slightly different.

Anyway, it seemed like a technique Kim Hannah reinterpreted and created.

I heard you mixed white flame ability and swordsmanship.

I’ve heard rumors that he killed Kuroda, Japan’s top hunter, with that.

Hannah Kim was undoubtedly a strong person and a genius.

In terms of pure sword talent, she must be far ahead of Hannah Kim.

But Yerin Ryu didn’t care at all.

Because the victory or defeat has already been decided.

It was the result of an internal decision from when Kim Hannah used her sword.

Ryu Yerin did not hesitate to use the one-pointed sword’s rushing machine, Sumbo.

For a moment, the new model faded, and then swish! Rushed towards Kim Hanna with the sound of the wind.

However, it was clearly visible in Hannah Kim’s eyes.

It was quite fast, but that was all.

She was able to respond well enough.

‘Now!’

The moment Yerin Ryu reached a certain distance, Hanna Kim swung her sword. Her swordsmanship was as fast as a beam of light. She was in the blink of an eye, but she, Kim Han-na, had already drawn her sword and slashed her.

A slash that directionally scatters pure white flames, the Hwamun Baeksom.

Its power was doubled thanks to Muramasa.

Unlike a simple sword, white flames in the form of thin flames spread widely around the sword.

For that reason, even if you avoid the black magic, you will touch the white flame spreading around you and catch fire.

Then the opponent cannot escape death.

This flame burns as soon as it touches it until the opponent dies.

No, it burns even after death.

It doesn’t even leave ashes.

“…… Ah.”

Yerin Ryu blinked her eyes.

As soon as she blinked her eyes once, she saw another pure white sword and flame right in front of her nose.

I could avoid the sword skill, but I couldn’t avoid the wide-spreading flame.

It would be quite dangerous if white flames were transferred to Ryu Ye-rin’s body.

But Ryu Ye-rin was not worried.

That slash.

That flame.

After all, it is included in the concept of swordsmanship.

As long as those pure white flames were tied together as part of the swordsmanship called Hwamunbaekgeom, they posed no threat to Ryu Yerin.

Because Yerin Ryu was the natural enemy of all prosecutors.

“It’s useless.”

“Ah.”

When Ryu Ye-rin swung her sword once, Hanna Kim’s flames and slashing blows shattered into pieces, leaving no trace of her.

Even though she swung her sword roughly, Kim Hannah’s technique, which could be called a special move, was destroyed.

I didn’t even have time to think about how that could be.

It is because Ryu Ye-rin moved her new model right in front of Hanna Kim’s nose.

Kim Hanna swiftly swung Muramasa.

Yerin Ryu is said to be fast, but she was slower than Hanna Kim.

It was the difference between her basic physical abilities.

Kim Hannah’s strength, agility, magical power, stamina…… Almost all of her abilities were ahead of Yerin Liu.

So, without losing her composure, Hannah Kim slammed her Muramasa down and aimed at Yerin Ryu’s oblique muscle. Liu Yerin also threw out her sword, but it was too late. Kim Hannah’s sword was a bit faster. This is a car that can never be overturned…… Uh?

“It’s useless.”

Yerin Ryu reached out with her left hand and grabbed Muramasa.

He casually gripped the blade of the white flame.

However, for some reason, the flames did not spread to Ryu Ye-rin’s hand.

Liu Yerin calmly grabbed Muramasa with his left hand and thrust out the sword with his right hand.

Kim Han-na swallowed vain winds for a moment, but then moved her left hand to try to block Ryu Ye-rin’s sword.

The speed at which Ryu Yerin threw her sword was not that fast.

Hannah Kim’s reflexes are enough to block and counterattack…….

‘The left hand…… Doesn’t exist…… ?’

The moment she stretched out her left hand, she realized.

The fact that her left hand had already been cut off.

“Ah.”

Poof!

After a moment of hesitation, Yerin Liu’s sword blade grazed her neck.

“Ugh, ah…… ?”

Kim Hanna reflexively let go of Muramasa and touched her neck.

Blood was gushing from her neck.

Its appearance reminded me of a fountain.

“Along with the carotid artery, the cervical vertebrae were also slightly cut. It will be fatal.”

I couldn’t properly listen to Ryu Ye-rin’s calmly reciting words.

Hannah Kim’s consciousness faded away every time the blood gushed out.

Earlier, when her left hand was amputated, she was bleeding quite heavily, and her carotid artery and spine were damaged, and she went into shock.

Hannah Kim collapsed on the spot.

“…… Ah. …… Cool, uh, how?”

Yerin Ryu quietly looked away and picked up Muramasa, who had fallen to the ground. Muramasa is said to be one of the five greatest swords in Japan. It seemed to be quite useful.

“…… Uh? That…… Bare-handed…… If you catch…… Cool.”

Hannah Kim was a bit surprised.

If anyone other than the owner grabs the handle of Muramasa, her hand melts.

It wasn’t called a ghost sword for nothing.

However, Yerin Ryu was fine.

As if she didn’t care, she even lifted Muramasa and swung it around.

“…… Why?”

“I am not affected by the curse of this sword.”

Yerin Ryu answered lightly.

The restrictions of the sword were not a problem.

“Because it’s that kind of ability.”

Whether the sword is short or long.

Whether the sword is heavy or light.

Whether or not the sword has restrictions.

There was no problem with Yerin Ryu.

Because Ryu Ye-rin is loved and respected by all the swords in the world.

‘Sword Master.’

It is Ryu Ye-rin’s awakening ability that will be revealed later.

A power that has a positive effect on everything contained within the concept of a sword.

For example, when Yerin Ryu holds a sword, the sword becomes sharper, stronger, and lighter than usual.

In addition, if the opponent uses a sword, you can understand the path of the sword and the principles of swordsmanship with just one look.

And you can’t hurt Ryu Ye-rin with any sword.

The sword itself refuses to hurt Yerin Ryu.

That’s why Yerin Ryu is said to be the natural enemy of all prosecutors.

Because no swordsman can defeat Ryu Ye-rin.

‘It’s a sword-only buying ability.’

Han Seo-jun quietly looked at Ryu Ye-rin from her back.

The reason Ryu Ye-rin was able to cut Kim Han-na’s sword skill and white flame was because she reestablished herself as a swordsmanship called Hwamun Baekgeom.

Because she was bound by the concept of swordsmanship, she did not work on Yerin.

If she hadn’t used it in conjunction with swordsmanship, she would have been able to damage Yerin.

As evidence of that, the first time Yerin Ryu cut Hannah Kim, her sword melted away.

This is because the moment Kim Hannah was cut by her sword, she only defended herself with flames.

Whether it was a throwing technique or a hwamunbaekgeom, if it wasn’t related to swordsmanship, Yerin couldn’t be stopped.

‘If Hannah Kim had been the type to rely only on her abilities rather than being a master of swordsmanship, would it have been much more difficult for her than she is now?’

Rather, the fact that he was a master of swordsmanship caught Kim Hanna’s ankle.

From Kim Hannah’s point of view, it was a regrettable fact in many ways.

“…… Why. Cool, ability, how will it be, kuk!”

Dengggung!

Around the time Han Seo-joon was lost in thought, Ryu Ye-rin cut off Kim Hanna’s head.

Kim Hannah’s bleached hair fluttered in the air, and her blood ran down her stream and soaked her ground. Suddenly, her head rolled around and soiled her ground.

“It’s over, sir. Didn’t it take long?”

That’s it.

Korea’s top ten ranked Kim Hannah passed away.
