    Episode 283

    Ber has been steadily building up his magical power by eating the magic stones that Suho saved him.

    Of course efficiency is still low.

    Compared to the time when he received magic power directly from Seong Jin-woo his power was severely insufficient.

    But what can you do?

    Now from Ber’s point of view he just had to live with a grateful heart and cherish it as much as possible.

    Sometimes I had to hold back even though my hands itched because I wanted to exert more effort.

    This was because if he had wasted the magical power he had worked so hard to accumulate he would have to reach out to Suho again to recharge the reduced power.

    That kind of thing really…

    Ber who had raised Suho on his back since he was a baby was not very happy because it felt like he was taking every penny or two from the baby’s nose and adding it to the household.

    Now on this earth each magic stone is so expensive and precious so why is it such a nuisance?

    However if the other person is an apostle of a foreign media the words are completely different.

    A weapon made from foreign stones. How on earth could someone collect that amount of foreign stones and make a weapon?

    reasonable doubt.

    Ber who was secretly following the harvester Haseul was convinced that Haseul was either an apostle of the foreign religion or a liaison somehow closely connected to the foreign religion.

    Isn’t he even a villain with S-class magical power?

    If that woman was really a force in the foreign media it would have been a much bigger loss to wait for Su-ho and miss Dulmi.

    So if he had to he even thought about killing him himself even if it meant consuming the magic power he had worked so hard to accumulate.

    First you can kill it so that it cannot escape then turn it into a shadow soldier or eat its brain yourself to retrieve its memories.

    But fortunately such an unfortunate thing did not happen.

    [Keeeeek! Solord!]

    It was fortunate for both Ver and Haseul.

    [Have you been unable to bear it for so long and now miss Soin?!]

    When Su-ho appeared in the alley where Ver had entered Ver suddenly shrunk in size as if he had never seen it before.

    If Suho is here you can just leave it to Suho from now on.

    The icing on the cake would be to kill Haseul with Harmacan’s help and gain experience points.

    “…you?”

    Haseul who was weighed down by Ber’s sudden presence opened her eyes wide when she recognized the identity of Suho who appeared at the right time.

    “bakery?”

    He was the owner of the bakery I saw at the morning market.

    But why did he suddenly appear here?

    Besides why is that black ant demon suddenly sticking next to that man and fawning over him like he’s cute?

    Isn’t that fawning?

    Looking at it again it seemed like he was being cute rather than pretending to be cute.

    Anyway it was such a confusing moment.

    Cheezy.

    -…Did something happen there?

    A voice came through the walkie-talkie I was holding in my hand.

    Haseul quickly retreated and spoke into the radio.

    “that….”

    But my mouth doesn’t come off easily.

    Maybe it was because of the aftermath of the ant attack that had been so intimidating just before but at the moment I couldn’t quite figure out how to say something.

    at that time.

    Swish-

    “oh?!”

    Suddenly the radio in Haseul’s hand floated in the air.

    It was as if it had been taken away by an invisible hand.

    Haseul’s walkie-talkie flew through the air in an instant and fell into the hands of the bakery owner.

    Haseul couldn’t help but be surprised.

    ‘Magic power….’

    Strange.

    Although it was a skill the flow of magic power was not felt at all.

    But this was natural.

    In the first place ‘Ruler’s Power’ was a skill that did not consume magical energy and was essentially a third hand that Suho was born with.

    Cheesy!

    -Please respond. Shadow of Paradise What’s happening there now….

    “Hello Association President Woo Jin-cheol. “This is Ber.”

    -…?!

    Suddenly Suho spoke into Haseul’s radio and said hello.

    Then for a moment I felt a look of confusion from beyond.

    Woo Jin-cheol who understood the situation in an instant asked a question in a calm tone.

    -Are you Hunter Seong Su-ho?

    “Oh you recognized it right away?”

    -That’s because your voice…looks exactly like your father.

    As a son grows older he becomes more and more like his father’s voice.

    As soon as Woo Jin-cheol heard Su-ho’s voice over the radio he couldn’t help but feel that he was talking on the phone with Seong Jin-woo.

    -Furthermore as far as I know I am the only ‘human’ in this world who remembers the name ‘Ber’.

    In Woo Jin-cheol’s voice which had a faint smile even a faint longing could be felt somewhere.

    That’s right.

    Woo Jin-cheol was Seong Jin-woo’s closest friend and colleague for the past several decades.

    At the same time he was a human being who remembered all the lost history that has now been forgotten and has become a thing that never happened.

    Even he didn’t just have personal memories related to him.

    He was a person who knew everything related to Seong Jin-woo.

    The reason was because Seong Jin-woo had directly delivered to Woo Jin-cheol’s mind the memories of the Shadow Lord he had seen in the world before the Cup of Reincarnation was used that is all the truths related to the war between rulers and monarchs.

    -Didn’t you use that pseudonym for this in the first place?

    “Oh yeah. “I thought that if there was anyone who recognized the name Ber it would definitely be the president of the association.”

    [Was that something like that?!]

    Ber was surprised at those words.

    [I definitely thought that the Little Lord used my name because he wanted to become a great ant like me someday…]

    Ber quickly became sullen.

    Suho who had been diligently drawing ants with black crayons on white drawing paper since he was a child clearly had ants as his future dream.

    -hmm. You said that too. More than that is Haseul safe? Because he was a spy planted by us in that city.

    “Yeah what…”

    In response to those words Suho’s gaze glanced at Haseul.

    In front of her Haseul was standing there awkwardly unable to do either this or that when the conversation between Suho and Woo Jin-cheol suddenly started.

    At the same time it was clear that he was wary of Ber’s presence right next to Suho.

    For Haseul Suho suddenly magically took something out of his hand and handed it to Haseul.

    “Just eat this for a moment.”

    “…!”

    For a moment Haseul’s eyes sparkled.

    It’s strawberry cake!

    And this time it wasn’t a piece of cake it was a proper cake with a perfect circle!

    Haseul took it with both hands and immediately became calm.

    And finally I made an important decision.

    I’m going to eat the last piece of cake I left earlier right now.

    -There are more things I would like to ask Hunter Seong Su-ho than that. I don’t know exactly what the situation in the city is right now but if circumstances allow may I ask you a few questions?

    “As much as you want. Rather please speak comfortably. “I heard you are my father’s friend.”

    -haha. it’s okay. I am comfortable with polite language. Unfortunately after seeing an E-class hunter once known as humanity’s weakest weapon save the world I developed a disease that prevented me from being easy on anyone again.

    “Oh my.”

    With appropriate jokes Suho answered Woo Jin-cheol’s questions one by one.

    The first question that came out was of course about Seong Jin-woo.

    However Woo Jin-cheol’s expectations turned into disappointment when Su-ho returned.

    But there was hope.

    -Still it’s really fortunate that the memories of Hunter Cha Hae-in CEO Jin-ho Yoo and Thomas Andre have come back. Humanity has gained great power. Are there any others? And by any chance Hunter Seong Su-ho can you restore anyone’s lost memories if you wish?

    To Woo Jin-cheol’s most essential question this time the answer came out of Ver’s mouth not Su-ho’s.

    [This is not possible for everyone. Basically it is much easier to restore the memories of people like you who had a direct relationship with the monarch. Of course in a broad sense all humans on earth received the king’s grace and were saved so there is an indirect connection but it is difficult to go that far.]

    -Now wait a minute! Is the person you just mentioned really ‘Ber’?!

    Woo Jin-cheol who recognized Ber’s voice gave a much more shocked reaction than Su-ho.

    Happy.

    Ber shrugged his shoulders towards Suho with a very satisfied expression on his face.

    [Have you seen it? I am like this.]

    -It was the real Ber!

    A sigh of great relief was heard from Woo Jin-cheol.

    It’s a pity that Sung Jin-woo is not on Earth but the fact that Ver is here is truly a huge deal.

    Woo Jin-cheol remembered it clearly.

    The Jeju Island raid where many S-class hunters put all their effort into it!

    This is because the disaster on the scale of a natural disaster that mercilessly slaughtered all the hunters there was a magical beast named Ver.

    However now that he has reformed and become one of Seong Jin-woo’s core forces humanity has truly been supplemented with tremendous strength.

    -Thank goodness. This is truly fortunate.

    “…Hmm.”

    Suho looked at the mini-sized Ber with a slightly distraught expression as Woo Jin-cheol reacted with great relief just hearing Ver’s voice.

    [Kiek? Why do you look at me like that? You can look up to me as much as you want.]

    “….”

    You probably can’t even imagine Woo Jin-cheol who is still diligently explaining to Su-ho about Ber’s truly amazing days at Leeds(?).

    Ber’s appearance has become so small now.

    ‘…I need to get more magic stones.’

    It was Suho with a firm resolve.

    And Woo Jin-cheol who had heard all the questions from Su-ho asked the last question.

    -Anyway what is the situation in that city right now? You incited citizens to riot at a bank in just one day?

    Woo Jin-cheol has already received information from Haseul about what Su-ho has done.

    Even thinking about it again it was truly amazing.

    But at this point what ultimately mattered was the plan for the future.

    -Do you have any plans? That city was difficult for us to touch so we only planted spies and looked into the internal situation.

    Until now the association hunters led by Woo Jin-cheol have been clearing out every city of villains they find.

    However there was a reason why this city could not be easily touched.

    Right on the castle wall.

    The incredibly large and high iron wall surrounding the city was a very strong barrier that did not burn even with Choi Jong-in’s fire attack.

    And perhaps thanks to that wall all the villains who had been scattered to avoid the Association were flocking to this city one by one.

    The strength of the villains gathered in this way was overwhelmingly greater than that of the association hunters brought by Woo Jin-cheol from Korea.

    Of course if you push yourself too hard you can deal with it somehow but the problem came later.

    Even though the villains’ cities have been destroyed several times so far it was relatively recent for Woo Jin-cheol to notice that a new city was being built in a new location again.

    -In the end in order to fundamentally eliminate all villains you have to catch the executioners. This is also information I learned thanks to having Haseul live in that city. Our people are already known to the villains there so no one can pass through the city gates.

    Kwakwakwauk-!

    Even during this leisurely conversation the city was turning into a fierce battlefield in real time.

    Blood splattered and screams erupted.

    Now it’s a bloody battle that doesn’t even matter who is friend or foe.

    This was because the villains who were living for each other’s desires anyway learned that they could absorb the power of the fruit by killing the other person.

    Their blood and flesh were being sprinkled and scattered throughout the city.

    But there was one thing that no one noticed at this point…

    All the dead and dried bodies were slowly melting into the ground without anyone noticing.

    in result.

    Sararak.

    “…ah.”

    The outskirts of paradise city.

    Sirka who was watching the villains’ war outside the dark alley where Suho and Haseul entered inadvertently raised her head at the falling leaves.

    Before I knew it red leaves were falling from the sky.

    Even the leaves of Alfheim which had been green until last night were gradually turning a vibrant color.

    Under the beautiful scenery of red autumn leaves falling from sky to sky.

    “…It smells familiar.”

    Sirka closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

    I could feel the familiar winter vibes at the tip of my nose.

    Sirka looked up at the sky and muttered.

    “Winter is coming.”
