I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner

313 – I Took Out Insurance.

I felt a bitter taste in my mouth when I saw hunters who chose to be swayed by the atmosphere rather than making rational decisions.

“How are you feeling?”

“Senior… Haven’t you gone yet?”

Hyun Joong-gil was chatting with Kim Seon-min, an insect master who had suddenly appeared, paying no attention to the people’s interest in Jo Ki-man.

“Joong-gil. I don’t have much time, so I guess I should go first as soon as we meet.”

“That’s right. Thanks to you, we were able to prevent a terrible disaster. Thank you.”

“Of course, you man! This incident will have cut my lifespan in half! Work diligently and make sure you never have to call me again!”

“I will.”

“You always speak well. Heulheul-“

Kim Seon-min smiled brightly and soon disappeared, and Hyun Joong-gil also tried to leave without hesitation, but Kang Yeon-soo grabbed his ankle

“Guild leader! I have something to talk about-“

“Hmm?”

Yeonsu quickly approached Hyun Joong-gil and talked to him about something.

I wanted to eavesdrop on it, but I couldn’t because the waves of sensation were blocked by Hyun Joong-gil’s unique domain.

Nevertheless, I approached him because I wanted to show him something, and Yeonhee followed me without thinking.

After a short conversation, the two looked at us who had come closer and smiled slightly.

When Kang Yeon-soo pointed his hand towards me and said a few words, Hyeon-joong-gil released his area and approached me and said.

“Hmm – they say you are such a mysterious being. Is that really true?”

“Tick, tick, tick.”

“Hmm? Haha! This is so. A skeleton soldier with an ego? It definitely reminds me of that guy.”

I know who he was talking about.

‘Chief of the Skull Knights of the Ancient Empire…’

When you think of the ultimate king of the undead world, Archrich and Death Knight come to mind, but anyone who has experienced it will unanimously say that the Skull Knight Commander is the strongest.

Of course, he is also a Death Knight type, but there is a clear difference.

Not only does it have far superior military power, but surprisingly, it has a clear sense of self and is known to not kill people carelessly.

“Your name is Ilwol?”

“Yes, yes!”

Hyun Joong-gil gauged Yeon-hee’s energy with Lee Chae’s eyes and spoke.

“I see. Summoner Lee Yeon-hee… Just as I heard, she has great qualities. She is a vessel who handles this type of person without any problem… I am looking forward to the future.”

“Well… I couldn’t do anything today…”

“Is that possible? Think about it again. Did you really do anything?”

“…I did save several people trapped in the building…”

“That’s right. That’s enough.”

Hyun Joong-gil smiled warmly like a grandfather looking at his granddaughter, but then his complexion suddenly turned pale and he tried to leave.

‘As expected, the body…’

Regardless of my bitter feelings, I blocked Hyun Jung-gil’s path and took out my great sword and grabbed the top right corner.

“Hmm?”

Then, he powerfully brought down the great sword from top to bottom, just as he had learned from him in his previous life.

Huuuuu!

“?!”

I repeated the swing several times, demonstrating my extremely poor swordsmanship.

If I were human right now, my face would be as red as a blush.

But even though I was embarrassed, I wanted to show him at least once.

‘But thanks to you, I was able to do at least this much…’

As my swing continued, Hyun Joong-gil’s expression became more complex, and he could not say anything for a moment as he looked at me after the swordsmanship demonstration.

“Well, where on earth did you learn that swordsmanship?”

“…?”

Yeonhee and Yeonsu were confused as to what on earth was going on.

I made eye contact with Hyun Joong-gil for a moment, then threw a dagger at him.

Whiik-

“Oh my!!”

“Huh?! Hey!!”

Yeonhee was shocked and jumped up from her seat when I suddenly threw the dagger, and Yeonsu looked at the flying dagger and thought for a moment about whether to catch it or not.

‘Even if no one else knows, I have to make a connection with my first teacher.’

I lived with Hyun Joong-gil in the maze of the dungeon for only a month.

I can’t say I know everything about him, but by my standards, he is extremely good and just, both mentally and physically. He was a person with a sense of balance who was not biased towards one side.

The first thing that came to mind was that if there was someone who could be on our side, it would be this person.

But he has nothing to do with me in this life.

So, it was impossible for them to look after us without a reason.

So, in preparation for the day I might meet him someday, I have been preparing one thing since I changed jobs.

A dagger made from my own bones.

There, I engraved a secret about him that only I knew, and now I have sent him a dagger with that engraved on it.

Hyun Joong-gil lightly snatched the dagger with his index and middle fingers and looked at me in bewilderment as he looked at the bundle of ‘greeting notes’ tied together with the dagger.

‘The more insurance, the better.’

If Jogiman wants to kill us, he may be subdued before he can even use the earring artifact.

That item can be activated just by tearing or burning it, so it would be useful as an alternative.

If Master responds in this way, I will be able to buy myself some time to escape.

I know it’s a terrible thing to do to Master, but if I want to save Yeonhee, it would be better for me to become an asshole.

Now I’m trying to use him.

But Hyun Joong-gil would also be willing to be used by me.

As he read the inscription on his dagger, his face his his crumpled, and his his eyes his his eyes his were fixed on me.

“Uh… How…”

Hyunjoong-gil’s voice trembles slightly, and he looks at his dagger several times.

Woooooung──

And after a while, his area rippled wildly, revealing its colors.

‘There are already restrictions…’

If he does not enter that space quickly, he will no longer be able to remain in this world.

“What… What is it? Ilwol-“

“No. It’s nothing… He’s an interesting guy. I guess he wanted to test his power on me.”

“Wow…”

“Oh my god…”

Yeonsu and Yeonhee looked at me with shocked expressions after hearing his words

Even in a situation where Jehan showed his teeth, Hyunjoong-gil was in an extremely calm state, concentrating his magic, and after nodding his head towards me once, he disappeared like the wind into his own territory his.

“…You’re gone…”

“Uh… That…”

The reason he disappeared right away without saying anything was because of restrictions.

As if it were because of me, Yeonsu glares at me with her axe-eyed gaze.

“You bastard! What are you doing? Are you crazy?”

After he leaves, Kang Yeon-soo grabs me by the collar and swears at me.

The momentum was so great that it seemed as if he could cut me into dozens of pieces at any moment.

“You knew who that was, so you threw the dagger and damn it! Damn it! Did you even get hit on the head by [Meteor]?!”

‘Ah… Is that the point of being angry?’

I thought I saw something written on the dagger again.

It was worth throwing it in a direction that Yeonsu couldn’t see on purpose.

I shrugged my shoulders and made a motion that said I had no idea what he was talking about, and Yeonsu looked at my face her with one of his glaring eyes of hers. Then, an urgent call request came from somewhere else and I had no choice but to turn around.

“You, talk to me again later.”

Yeonsu slit his throat with his thumb, and he scared me.

In fact, I was prepared to get hit a few times, so I wasn’t scared by that level of warning.

When Yeonsu disappeared, even Yeonhee asked me why I did such a thing, and I told her that I wanted to test my strength against an incredibly strong person.

Then, Yeonhee showed a dejected expression and told him earnestly that even if no one else knew, she should not do that to him.

“And why did you throw away the greeting card? It’s not like he would come to help us if we tore up the paper. You didn’t just throw away one, you threw all 20, right?”

“Crack, crack, crack!”

“I can’t survive…”

Yeonhee was sad that she wasted the expensive items she had purchased at the market in vain.

Regardless of whether Yeonhee said so or not, I handed her ten notes written by Hyunjoong-gil and her partner saying how she was doing. I keep the remaining ten in my armor so I can burn them quickly.

Yeonhee made a pouty expression for a moment and then put her items into the space.

After the small event passed, we walked to where the monster was.

There were already a lot of hunters gathered there, and they all seemed busy taking pictures in front of the huge crater.

‘I helped defeat the highest-level monster that appeared in the city, so that’s it.’

I was more curious about whether the monster really disappeared without leaving any trace.

‘My senses were blurred because of the magic storm earlier.’

As I first noticed, there was nothing left of the monster when I looked through the crowd.

However, a 2-meter-long stone block hidden under the ground was brought out, charred black and still smoking heavily.

It looked dangerous, as if it would turn into smoke and fly away when touched, but it seemed to be harder than it looked, even when the head of the Hunter Management Office’s investigation department kicked it several times with his foot, it did not move at all.

“No mana or biological reactions can be detected at all.”

“Phew, it’s finally over. What are you going to do with this rock?”

Key figures, including Park Yong-hwan, Kang Yeon-soo, and Ki-man Cho, were gathered together and talking about the rock.

“I tried to conduct research after putting it in sub-space and moving it, but there is a problem.”

Park Yong-hwan said, hitting the rock with his hand several times.

“It doesn’t go into subspace. It doesn’t even move.”

“Let me try.”

Kang Yeonsu tried it right away out of curiosity, but the rock didn’t budge.

“No way… This thing isn’t alive, is it?”

“As you can see, the monster’s existence has completely disappeared.”

“Is there anything more certain than the message of treatment?”

“But… “

“Anyway, I once-“

About thirty top hunters all tried to place or move the object into subspace, but none of them succeeded. Even Jogiman.

Jo Gi-man nodded his head after the failure and acted as if he realized something, but when I saw him, he seemed very displeased at being shown something he couldn’t do.

But more than that, I slowly began to question what my senses were capturing.

‘… Isn’t something… Strange?’

I looked at it with Yeonhee and tilted my head.

“Huh? Why? What’s strange again?”

“Tick, tick, tick…”

What I was puzzled about was nothing else.

‘Why is there a flame mark at the core of the stone?’

As far as I could tell, the giant monster had completely disappeared, and the stone that was stuck in the ground like a tombstone was literally just a by-product of the monster being cut into pieces and burned.

‘Is it because it came from a monster that it was marked… But is it possible to mark something that is not alive?’

I had unanswered questions, but before I knew it, I was taking steps towards the stone.

Yeonhee and Arin followed me without thinking as I went down the crater.

– It is a state that cannot be contained in subspace.

I tried to capture it in subspace, just in case, but I couldn’t.

If Ran’s [Acceleration] Had opened up possibilities, the story might have been different.

‘…It’s a state that can’t be contained? This is more suspicious?’

I created a bone dagger the size of a finger.

‘Seup- I don’t know…’

As the super-strong people who had tested subspace once again spread out in small groups and chatted, I approached the monument and quickly began to carve a flame mark.

Yeonhee looked at my actions and now had a resigned expression.

[Flame Slash]

[Flame Slash]

[Flame Slash]

Slowly- Slowly-

Not long after, I had completed twenty-five marks, but Kang Yeon-su, who just happened to come by, grabbed me by the back of my neck and prevented me from carving more marks.
