Episode 108
“Taxis in Korea are too small.”
“Thomas America also has the same size taxis.”
“aha. okay? Well I guess I should have taken a taxi before.”
Thomas Andre forced his huge body to crumple into the back seat of the taxi and chatted with Laura who was sitting in the front seat.
“But is it still far from the hotel?”
“We have to go a lot further. “I heard you want to stay at the best hotel in Korea.”
“I didn’t know it would be this far.”
Listening to their conversation the taxi driver just quietly sweated in front of him.
‘I’m scared to death. ‘I burned it for no reason.’
Who would have guessed that this foreigner was the famous Thomas Andre?
This is not an exaggeration at all but it was clear that the moment he stretched out in this taxi even a little this taxi would be crumpled like a piece of paper.
“Oh it’s uncomfortable. “Should I have waited a little longer and gotten a bigger car?”
‘Hey!…! Why is it so blocked today? hurry! hurry!’
Every time he wriggled behind him the taxi driver felt like his mind was about to fly out.
“…So Laura.”
Thomas who was crumpled in the back seat suddenly became serious and brought up the main point that had come all the way to Korea.
“Have you found out Seong Su-ho’s current location?”
“We’re still investigating but it won’t take long.”
From the moment she got into the taxi Laura had been looking at the work he had entrusted to her on her tablet PC.
She said with cool blue eyes as she quickly scanned the information sent by American employees on her tablet.
“In Korea it is easy to find out the contact information of hunters. There is a saying that because the land is so narrow no matter where the hunters are if they fall down they are just a stone’s throw away.”
“If you fall down your noses will touch. “That’s an interesting expression.”
It was never a proverb or an exaggeration.
Hunters with excellent physical abilities especially Thomas Andre were considered the standard and in a small country like Korea they could reach any city in an instant with just a short run.
“Anyway Thomas. “Is it true that the person in the prophecy is Seong Su-ho?”

“That’s for sure. “No matter how old you are you are not yet old enough to develop dementia.”
“Of course I don’t doubt him. But isn’t this prophecy too specific compared to previous prophecies?”
“Hehe. That’s right. Could it be that as the old lady got older her prophetic abilities got better? Normally fortune tellers seem more spiritual as they get older right?”
Thomas grinned and recalled the face of Norma Selner the prophet who sent him here.
“Even though we are growing old together that old lady is really amazing. “I never thought I would survive because I woke up almost on my deathbed.”
“It’s really fortunate. Thomas your only friend almost passed away.”
“Wasn’t Laura my friend too?”
“I’m sorry. “I am strictly a business person.”
Despite Laura’s firm answer Thomas just chuckled in amusement.
Stand tall.
At that moment Laura’s eyes which were reading a lot of information on the tablet stopped at a certain point.
“I found it. Hunter Seong Su-ho.”
“oh? okay? “What are you doing?”
“Hmm. If this information is correct…”
It was Thomas his eyes sparkling as he discovered delicious food.
But Laura frowned and continued her explanation.
“They say he’s a C-class summoner…”
“what? Summoner? And it’s only C grade? “That can’t be possible?”
“Because the information was recently registered there will be almost no errors. And you know. “Korea’s horsepower measuring instrument has quite good performance.”
“Is it possible that they are different hunters with the same name?”
“Of course that’s a possibility. It’s not like there isn’t someone with the same name.”
“You will know that when you meet in person and check it out. Otherwise you just have to hit me with some sweet chestnuts and come back.”
Thomas Andre grinned and muttered looking like he was visiting a delicious restaurant.
‘But in most cases he will have to be beaten. If you are the one who dares to mess with me honey chestnuts may hurt a lot.’
Although he started the trip last night on impulse this trip to Korea was very important to him.
‘Glacier Dungeon.’
According to Norma Sellner’s prophecy the help of Korean hunter Seong Su-ho is essential to attack that place.
And Norma Sellner who always made confusing prophecies by using examples and analogies that seemed to be unknown this time she pointed out the name ‘Seong Su-ho’.
This was by no means something that could be ignored.
Especially to Thomas Andre who had been her friend for decades.
‘It’s Korea.’
He fell into reminiscence while admiring the Korean scenery passing by outside the taxi.
It was definitely my first time in Korea.
However the reason why the fluent Korean has been flowing out of his mouth since a while ago.
It was because of something Norma Sellner suddenly said to him a long time ago.
-Thomas. It seems like I am very free now that I am retired. How about learning Korean during this time?
-korean? What is that?

-There is a country in East Asia called Korea. It’s the language there.
-Why do I suddenly have to learn the language of that country at this age?
-Once you learn it you may find it useful in the future.
-Holy shit. When an old lady says something like that I feel like I’ll be in big trouble if I don’t learn.
It was from then on.
I started learning Korean without even knowing English.
Norma Sellner was a famous prophet even before her awakening.
Of course he announced his retirement a long time ago saying that his ability to predict had disappeared but despite this he was a famous person who occasionally came to people in the political and business world and asked for advice whenever there was an important matter.
If a person like that said ‘Learn Korean!’ without any context I had no choice but to study hard even if it made me feel uncomfortable.
‘But later on I became completely addicted to Korean dramas.’
Thomas suddenly had this thought.
‘Maybe my grandmother was really innocent and told me to watch dramas because I looked so bored after retirement. Or I first saw my future immersed in Korean dramas.’
Until recently Thomas had only thought that much about Korea.
However as I came all the way to Korea in search of a hunter named Seong Su-ho I was secretly thinking that this might be the future that Norma Sellner had seen.
“Hmm. “It’s Korea…”
That won’t work. My body is itching and I can’t stand it.
Thomas Andre’s expression which had been steeped in thought suddenly changed.
“Laura. “I’m really sorry but let’s meet him before we go to the hotel.”
“What do you mean?”
“uh? are you okay? “Aren’t you tired?”
“Of course I’m tired. “I guess it’s quite gentlemanly to ask out of courtesy when you’re just going to do it anyway.”
“Ugh! “I never thought I would hear such praise from Laura!”
“It’s an insult. “Anyway I’ve already found Seong Su-ho’s address so let’s go there right away.”
* * *
[…Little Lord.]
Ber looked more nervous than ever.
Suho on the other hand was just ridiculous.
“No should I really move? Why are foreigners coming to my house now?”
[I’m sorry but it seems that the master’s personal information is now public property.]
Coo coo coo coo…!
A huge energy was coming straight from far away towards Suho who was resting at home for a long time.
At first I thought a dungeon break had occurred.
Or at least I thought a demonic beast like the Minotaur was running towards me.
But it was a person.
Also a foreigner.
At that moment the famous S-class hunter I had seen on the news during the day was rushing towards us with such honesty.
Kwasik! Kwasik!
It was such a huge nuisance that every time his legs touched the ground and he jumped the sidewalk blocks collapsed.
Suho sighed and greeted him outside the house.
There was no doubt that his target was himself as he ran towards him with such blatant energy.
“Oh what. “Could it be that you came to meet me?”
In the end Thomas Andre arrived in front of Suho.
“….”
Suho just lifted his head and looked up at his face with a curious expression.
How can a white-haired old man be so muscular?
The massive old man who appeared to be at least two spans taller than Suho was vividly radiating his presence with massive muscles all over his body.
‘At this level I could beat the Minotaur even without magic power.’
Suho reflected for a moment.
Recently I felt like I had become quite strong after leveling up but as Ver said I was seriously considering whether I was still at the level of an ant larva.
Thomas Andre easily set down Laura a middle-aged female secretary who was carrying him by his side with her bulky forearms and asked Su-ho directly.
“Are you Seong Su-ho?”
“….”
Wow this foreigner old man speaks Korean well.
I think this is what Ammut would have felt like if he were human.
“What am I so scared that my mouth is frozen? “For the most part that’s the case.”
When Suho did not answer and just stared blankly Thomas Andre grinned and showed his teeth in earnest.
Whoa!
At that moment a tremendous energy came out from his whole body and began to put pressure on Suho.
“Still you’ll have to squeeze in an answer. “If you don’t want to die.”
No it’s all so complicated?
Is there any grandfather who doesn’t have this situation?
Suho was so dumbfounded that he stared at him blankly and responded.
“First of all I am Seong Su-ho but… I wonder if you have some business for me that you have come to visit me on such a late night.”
“…what? “Young man?”
Thomas’ expression crumpled at Suho’s words.
Because I worked hard to learn Korean the meaning was automatically translated in my head.
Old man.
Old man.
“Haha! Have you seen such an arrogant guy? Laura! Did you hear? “How dare this arrogant bastard call me an old man?”
“What?”
No that’s how it works?
Suho was truly embarrassed.
But in reality no fearless person would dare say that Goliath Thomas Andre was old.
“Are you coming? “I will personally confirm whether you are really the Holy Guardian of the prophecy.”
Thomas took control of the space in this area emitting even greater speculation than before.
Coo coo coo coo coo…!
Kwasik! Kwasik!
At the same time an immense energy weighed down the space and the ground they were standing on began to crack apart as if there had been an earthquake.
Laura who knew this would happen and stayed away early on was shaking her head as if she couldn’t stop him.
In this incredible gravitational field like a natural disaster Suho…
Coo coo coo coo!
“hmm?”
For a moment Thomas Andre felt a chill.
How could he only be a C-rank hunter…
Can he easily withstand his magic field and stand still?
