I Became the Weakest Summoned of the Genius Summoner

chapter 374



374 – Cherish Your Life

“It’s been a while, Elder.”

Hyeon Il-hwan hurried over and greeted Jang Yu-chan politely.

“I’ve seen you a few times from far away, but it’s been a long time since I said hello, isn’t it?”

Jang Yu-chan responded with a warm smile that he had never shown before.

But he had some doubts inside.

‘For this person to come at this exact moment… Isn’t the timing just perfect?’

He also had a vague feeling that a summon called Ilwol was about to unleash a great ability, and he could see that Hyeon Woo-seok could fall into great danger because of that.

So, even though Hyeon Il-hwan was known to be cautious, it was understandable that he would destroy other hunters’ possessions without hesitation.

‘Hmm… I should be careful just in case.’

Jang Yu-chan thought it was necessary to inform young hunters that there is no one in the world they can trust.

Jang Yu-chan and Hyun Il-hwan.

They greeted each other warmly, but soon Hyeon Il-hwan bowed his head again at 90 degrees and spoke.

“I’m sorry. It’s been a while since I stopped by the main mountain, but I came in hurry a after hearing from an instructor that Wooseok might get into an accident. It seems like it’s already late, but I apologize for being late …”

“Oh, no. It’s already being finalized, so there’s no need to do that. Actually, I’m only an observer, but the actual parties involved are here.”

Then, Hyun Il-hwan ran to Baek A-rin, who clearly had the energy of one day, and bowed his head again.

Although he seems to know the situation to some extent, he does not know the details, so the sight of him apologizing on the premise that Hyun Woo-seok was at fault was enough to make the viewer feel embarrassed.

“I heard the story roughly. How much trouble you had… It’s all my fault for not being good enough…”

“Ah, no, there is nothing wrong with you, Master… “

“No, I promise to fix that guy’s rotten mentality.”

“Thank you…”

While looking at a small man who seemed to have fallen from another world, I came across the face of a great man like Hyun Il-hwan. People did not adapt easily.

“Anyway… What was the monster I stopped at the end? I’ve met countless monsters, but this is the first time I’ve encountered such a strange energy.”

“Oh, that kid is my pet.”

When Lee Yeon-hee raised her hand and revealed herself, Hyun Il-hwan approached her again, bowing his head.

‘This person has an excessive side in another way…’

Lee Yeon-hee had that thought.

People who were biased towards one side felt instinctively rejected.

Is that why?

Even though Hyun Il-hwan was approaching, I fell into other thoughts again.

‘Oh really. Why is Ilwol seemingly caught but not caught? They say it won’t fall beyond a certain distance! They say you can’t escape from me! What happened? System!’

······················································································. ·····························································································

But the system couldn’t answer.

‘Ah, this is really going crazy…!’

I was really curious about who Il-Hwan Hyun was and what Il-Wol’s current condition was.

* * *

‘Ugh, I’m going to die soon…! It’s going to explode, right?’

After activating the skill, I closed my eyes tightly without realizing it. It’s always amazing that I can feel this way even though I don’t have eyes.

It was a skill I had no intention of using, and it was an ability I should not have used.

But what can we do if it has already been activated?

The future me will take care of the rest.

But then I felt two huge forces falling on me from the sky almost simultaneously.

Since the skill was just about to be activated, I couldn’t help but be even more embarrassed.

Both powers are clearly felt even though they are much higher power than Hyun Woo-seok’s attack. Is it because the moment of death approaches and my mood rises?

Among them, one force was a very warm and nostalgic feeling.

‘Uh… This must be somewhere?’

And another power I felt for the first time, but it was also a scent I had felt before somewhere.

However, the will to exclude me was clearly felt in that power.

On the day that it passes by that enormous power, it will disappear without leaving a single speck of dust.

‘Who on earth is this? It’s at least the power of an S-class hunter!’

With that thought, a huge sword fell and swallowed me.

No, the moment I was swallowed, another force sent me flying somewhere.

At that moment, darkness came into my head.

.

.

.

[Why does the owner keep paying attention to this guy? I really don’t understand this!]

‘Who?’

It’s a voice I’ve heard once, but my memory is strangely hazy.

It seemed like I caught a glimpse of something square, but it soon disappeared without a trace.

After a while, even the voice disappeared, and I felt my consciousness regained.

‘Did he survive? It looks like your forehead is slightly broken?’

I stood up, smoothing out my forehead, which was cracked in the exact shape of a cross.

‘The core is not broken, and it is not dead. [Blast of Insanity] Doesn’t seem to have activated either?’

If it had been activated, the message that Hyun Woo-seok was killed would have clearly appeared.

‘The moment I activated the skill at the end… Did someone move me somewhere? I don’t know what the hell is.’

What I remember now may or may not be accurate.

I regain my senses and look around.

A gloomy atmosphere, dry and twisted trees. Digged up ground and tombstones rolling around haphazardly. A terrible scream heard from far away.

‘Is this… No. 1 closed school?’

It was clearly a D-grade dungeon, ‘Closed School No. 1’, which was infested with non-physical monsters.

‘Why am I suddenly here?’

I was even more embarrassed because I fell alone without Yeonhee. If you go beyond a certain distance, you will be drawn to Yeonhee like a magnet, right?

At that time, a mysterious message occurred to me.

– I escaped from the [Entrance to the hidden dungeon] By the ‘woman whose name was hidden’.

– Miraculously survived at a crossroads where extinction was certain.

– The weight of existence increases slightly.

‘A woman whose name is hidden? Who is that again?’

Who could have moved me from Ilseom’s headquarters to here in one go? And that too, aiming for that split second. And why?

‘Could it be… A great being? No. There is no way such an incredible being would come forward and save me.

Then, the only ones left are Irmana and Tania… Wouldn’t a being of that level be able to perform a miracle like this?’

But Irma and I stay in another world, and Tania has only observed things her whole life. Can I get involved in this world?

‘Hmm… Anyway, thanks to you, I earned one life point.’

I spread my arms toward the sky and expressed my gratitude by calling out to Irmana and Tania several times.

It would be a minimum of courtesy to one of the two.

‘Huh? Now that I think about it, your arm has fully recovered? Wow – good service.’

I couldn’t understand anything, but I started flying toward the exit.

Occasionally a ghost would fly in and cling to me, but once it changed to [Combat type], It would burn itself out and be completely destroyed.

‘It’s definitely gotten stronger. Just by standing still as a combat type, you can make quite a bit of money per day…’

We moved like that for about 10 minutes, and it was time to start to feel the exit. Something came into my mind again.

– The minor protection of ‘The Woman Who Hidden Name’ is lifted.

– ‘The woman whose name is hidden’ leaves advice to cherish her life.

‘…Yes?’

– Return to the summoner’s arms.

‘What?!’

*

“Oh?”

“Huh? W-what is it? Possibly?”

“Yes yes!”

Lee Yeon-hee nodded her head sharply in response to Joo-ah’s question.

‘I don’t know what happened, but I’m back!’

Ilwol’s unique coldness was felt inside her.

‘Yes… This feeling of fullness… I don’t want to miss it…’

Although the sun and moon had only disappeared for a short time, the wait felt like an eternity.

“Oh! As expected (he’s alive?)”

“What happened? (Did you cancel the summoning yourself?)”

Noh Hayun and Bae Jooah continued their conversation by asking in writing whether Ilwol was alive or not.

I didn’t necessarily want Hyun Il-hwan to know about this surprising situation.

Hyun Il-hwan is already showing interest in Il-wol because he is afraid that if he finds out that she is still alive after being attacked, he will do something unexpected like Hyun Wooseok.

Before they knew it, the hunters of Ilseom had become unpredictable beings.

“I can’t cancel the summoning on my own… I don’t know exactly what happened.”

She smiled with utmost satisfaction, as if she didn’t know the reason, and wondered when she would be able to escape from this place.

They were still staying at the headquarters of Ilseom Guild.

I got out of the sparring area, but I was waiting for a while because I couldn’t properly finish with Ilseom.

“I wonder if Hyun Woo-seok is still getting scolded inside.”

“There is a big age difference between Hyun Il-hwan and I… He couldn’t show off at all?”

“I can’t believe someone who is so scary would do something like this when he’s proud of himself in the guild…”

“You probably didn’t know you would come today. I heard that Hyun Il-hwan expedition also goes on frequents to subdue monsters.”

While we were chatting for a while, Hyun Il-hwan and Hyun Woo-seok appeared inside the sparring hall.

To be precise, Hyun Il-hwan was roughly picking up Hyun Woo-seok’s neck.

“I passed out… I don’t think I hit you.”

When I saw that, I felt nervous for no reason.

However, Hyun Il-hwan did not lose his polite attitude until the end, and he said, “Let’s discuss how he can solve this problem.”

“There are still many things I don’t know much about, so I’m sorry that I can only say this.”

“No. You’re probably busy, but we’re sorry for making you worry about this.”

Hyun Il-hwan, who was talking back and forth with Jang Yu-chan, looked at Lee Yeon-hee and asked carefully.

“But… The summoned beast that had that mysterious power earlier… Is it impossible to summon it again?”

He did not hide his interest in Ilwol. I wondered what he wanted to see if he was called out.

Do you have a hobby of collecting magic stones like Kang Yeon-soo?

“Huh? Oh, that’s it. Ilwol is a special summon. I think it’ll be difficult right now…”

“I see. I understand that powerful summons require time to be re-summoned.”

When Lee Yeon-hee heard those words, she felt regret that she had said it for no reason.

You shouldn’t use words that make assumptions about your abilities carelessly, but if Ilwol was next to you, he would definitely have scolded you.

“Anyway, I’m sorry. No matter how ugly he was, I couldn’t let him die… So I took immediate action, but I think it was too much.”

“······No.”

This was already the third time I said this.

‘I’m suffocating… You can stop apologizing. I wish I could drop it a little.’

Lee Yeon-hee had met super strong people like Hyun Joong-gil, Jo Ki-man, and Kang Yeon-soo, but they were all good at conserving their strength, so she couldn’t feel very intimidated.

However, although Hyeon Il-hwan had tremendous power, he was still poor at hiding his power, so he felt even more pressure than the super-strong people he had met before.

So, even though I maintained an extremely polite attitude, I just wanted to quickly distance myself from him.

Did he feel that discomfort too?

“Ah, I’m sorry about this. I’m still lacking in training… I’d like to talk more, but I think it’s better for everyone if I just leave.”

“Well, it’s not like that…”

“Haha, I’ll see you next time when I get a chance. The guide will come out soon, so please wait a moment. Then-“

In the end, Hyun Il-hwan disappeared somewhere with the luggage of Hyun Woo-seok in his hand.
