- Help me.

In Yoo-shin blinks his eyes.
Hyeon Gyu-ha’s smirk, which was not suitable for an emergency situation, was surprising, but more than anything...……….
“What did you just say?”
“What?”
He urged him to stop being pretentious, and he looked down at him with a naturally virtuous gaze.
“You called me by a strange name. The pronunciation is exactly...”
As if the pronunciation was broken due to an error. It was as if there was an encoding error, and the letters were broken and did not appear properly.
An even more eerie chill ran down his spine than when he encountered the dungeon break. This man knows something. Why did the system encourage taming him?
As if aware of the confusion reflected in In Yoo-shin’s eyes, Hyeon Gyu-ha bent down to meet his gaze and smiled.
“I told you this before I entered the dungeon, right? If they have it, you can find it. That’s all I can tell you.”
“.......What you were looking for was Dungeon Break?”
“To be exact, it is a result derived from Dungeon Break. For now, let’s just focus on blocking the monster wave.”
Hyeon Gyu-ha stretched out his arm before he could finish speaking. ‘Does this man, who knows something, also know how to end this relationship?’
An impulsive question tickles the back of his throat.
〈I will also find out how to cancel taming, so Yoo-shin, please study your abilities well.〉
Suddenly, a conversation we had in the past came to mind. ‘Even if you know the meaning of this taming, do you not know how to cancel it?’
In Yoo-shin let out a shallow sigh. He didn’t have time to think about it for long. The monster wave was about to begin.
“Can you explain later?”
“I’ll think about it.”
“......”
“Come here.”
The man, who did not give a clear explanation in the end, motioned for him to come closer. He looked up at him and walked closer. He still didn’t know what kind of person Hyeon Gyu-ha was, and he didn’t know how much of him he knew now, but one thing is certain.
He is a hunter who reigns at the top. He is a strong man.
So he won’t die before him.
Hyeon Gyu-ha wrapped his arms around In Yoo-shin’s waist and lifted his body into the air. The feeling of floating that he thought he had become accustomed to felt particularly unfamiliar to him. Hyeon Gyu-ha lowered his gaze and looked satisfied as he inadvertently clung to his arm.
Hyeon Gyu-ha wrapped his arms around In Yoo-shin’s waist and lifted his body into the air. The feeling of floating that he thought he had become accustomed to felt particularly unfamiliar to him. As he inadvertently clung to his arm, Hyeon Gyu-ha lowered his gaze and folded the corners of his eyes with a satisfied expression.
‘ You’re still at ease even under these circumstances.’’
Looking at his expression, which was no different from his usual expression, it was true that his distraught and complex emotions were diluted in one way or another.
In Yoo-shin, who held his arm and looked down, swallowed his voice. Countless demonic beasts were rising from the ground, the sea, and the air from far away on the vast horizon.
The strange voices unique to the demonic beasts rang out in a jumbled mess. The sound of wings flapping, the sound of a heavy body moving, and the sound of bouncing wildly. The chaos of the disorderly swarm of demonic beasts has only one goal.
Destruction of living things. There are only two life forms on Earth in this dungeon.
Like a colony controlled by a single command system, the eyes of the demon beasts moved and fixed in unison. In Yoo-shin, who received the attention of the demonic beast, was shocked.
“Ugh.......”
“It’s like a horror movie when people look at each other at the same time as if some kind of command has been input, right?”
Contrary to his carefree voice, the demonic beasts flocked to them, flapping their wings, stepping heavily on the ground, and jumping high.
It was so dark that the ground could not be seen due to the swarm of demonic beasts rushing in. In Yoo-shin’s eyes became dizzy. It was fortunate that he was floating in the air. If he had been on the ground, he might have fainted.
“What should we do about this? There are too many. How about requesting support now?”
“No. If I let those out of the dungeon, I’ll go bankrupt.”
“What?”
“The responsibility to manage private dungeons lies with the successful bidder or guild. If my dungeon overflows and causes damage, I have to compensate for it in full. If I let those guys go, the city would be completely devastated. No matter how much money I have, if I do that, I’ll be bankrupt.”
Hyeon Gyu-ha then made a very pitiful expression.
“What if Master abandons me because I’m in debt?”
In Yoo-shin was astonished. On the one hand, he was impressed.
“No, Gyu-ha-ssi, how can you say such bullshit even in this situation?”
“It’s sad that Master’s tone is becoming harsher.”
“It’s all because of Gyu-ha-ssi.”
“Well, anyway. I brought Master here, expecting a dungeon break, but I’m not so irresponsible that I couldn’t do anything, right?”
Certainly, it was so.
Hyeon Gyu-ha released his arms that were wrapped around In Yoo-shin’s waist, clasped his hands together, and extended them upward as if stretching. Letting go of his hand didn’t cause him to fall to the floor, but In Yoo-shin was startled and hugged his waist. His shy voice was heard.
“I don’t mind you holding my back, but can you put your arms up a little?”
“Ah, are you uncomfortable?”
“The location is a little dangerous.”
“The location is…… Aghhhhhh.”
In Yoo-shin was freaked out and raised his arm vaguely around his long bones.
I only shared a few words, but in the meantime, the monsters were flooding under my feet. A flying marshal flew towards them in the air. On the ground, the monsters leaped and climbed each other’s trunks, revealing their fangs and claws.
The wet breath of the demonic beast is close by. A fluttering pupil shot at the participant on the right. A strange crying sound that seems to be rubbing against a stone is heard. In Yoo-shin took a deep breath, buried in memories from 14 years ago.
“Are you okay?”
Hyeon Gyu-ha whispered, patting the back of In Yoo-shin’s hand, which was just as close to the position between him and his waist.
Hyeon Gyu-ha doesn’t know what happened to him 14 years ago. It occurred to him that he might be afraid of female demon beasts.
Nevertheless, his words held In Yoo-shin’s confusion tighter than any rhetoric. Is it because I know this person is strong? In Yoo-shin swallowed his sigh.
“Good. This would be good.”
Hyeon Gyu-ha, who lifted his body higher into the air and took in the entire horizon, muttered to himself.
In Yoo-shin is also an awakened person, albeit slightly. He could feel the flow of mana centered around Hyeon Gyu-ha fluctuating. Goosebumps rose on his skin. He realized that until now, he had never properly seen him fight with psychokinesis, a godly ability.
Grinding a gun indefinitely is a means of attack that anyone can use as long as they have enough mana and weapons. Although he had amazingly accurate vision and motor skills, the only time he used psychokinesis was when he fixed the machine gun in the air and fired.
Some awakeners in the world who have psychokinesis. However, no one will be able to demonstrate miracle-like abilities like Hyeon Gyu-ha.
“It will smell a little bloody.”
While speaking softly, Hyeon Gyu-ha slowly raised his arms upward. His vision turned upside down. No, tens of thousands of demonic beasts, pitch black all the way to the horizon, rose into the air at once.
The beast that was trying to scratch with the claws that sprouted from the tips of its wings flipped over. The three legs of the beast that had been pushing heavily fluttered in the air. The beast’s snout, which was about to jump up sharply and pierce like a harpoon, was bent.
Grumble. Kkiaah. Kyahaaaaaaa.
The demonic beasts howled. The land that was covered with a swarm of black demonic beasts is revealed, and the blue sky is now filled with demonic beasts.
In Yoo-shin could not even utter an exclamation and just stared ahead with his mouth shut. His tongue was frozen. It doesn’t even feel real because it feels more like a movie or CG than reality.
“Uwaa.......”
Only when his eyes met the eyes of the demonic beast struggling and being dragged up into the air barely a meter in front of him did he let out a groan-like exclamation. In Yoo-shin hid behind Hyeon Gyu-ha, shaking his shoulders. Today was the first time he learned that even demonic beasts can be embarrassed or startled.
The swarm of demonic beasts ascended to the sky. Higher. Higher. Higher. Higher. Higher.
When In Yoo-shin’s face, who had followed him, was bent backward, Hyeon Gyu-ha lowered both arms that had been raised close to the vertical.
Kiiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
The scream of death is long. The demonic beasts soaring into the sky fall. The time to fall is long. Kwang! bang! Puck! Craters are dug in succession on the ground. The demon beasts fall again on the corpse of the demon beast, whose body has become so exhausted that its form is unrecognizable.
The ground shook with the roar of the demonic beasts falling one after another. The sound of flesh and bones breaking apart rang out dully even amidst the screams of the dying horse.
The sea of humiliation does not stop there.
It didn’t stop there, sailing ships lined up in the rolling sea were also raised high into the sky and then lowered on top of the demonic beasts. Quang! bang! The rocks and trees on the ground went through the same process as the sailboat. The breath of the demonic beasts that were barely holding on was lost as they fell to their deaths.
[The demons of the dungeon have been wiped out.]
In Yoo-shin swallowed dry saliva. It was a light and instant massacre as if a child was playing.
The bloody smell rose later.
The good news was that the aftermath of the fall raised so much dust on the ground that I was unable to see the spectacular view. If he had witnessed it clearly, he would not have been able to sleep at night for quite a long time.
“You’re not hurt anywhere, right?”
“Well, uh…………. yes…………”
When he killed the dungeon boss in an instant, he felt a sense of desperation, but now there was no thought in my head. This man, smiling brightly and without breaking a sweat, felt like a completely different creature.
“Ah, I feel like I’m feeling a little better now. I can’t do this because if I do this outside the gate, I will go bankrupt from paying compensation even if I defeat the entire monster wave by myself.”
“That’s… definitely…………….”
Roads and buildings will all be destroyed, and sewer pipes and subways beneath the ground will also be destroyed.
As he listened to the same jokes as usual, the shock slowly began to wear off. In Yoo-shin tried not to look down and hugged Hyeon Gyu-ha tighter around the waist.
“Is it all over now?”
“No. As Yoo-shin knows, if you clear the break in a dungeon, there is a 100% chance that a hidden boss will appear. What I’m looking for is there.”
“Are the two hidden bosses Columbus?”
“It would be convenient, but I think he is probably the hero of the Taino people’s legend, as opposed to Columbus. My guess is that there is a hero named Deminan……”
[The hidden boss of the dungeon, ‘heshin(虛神) Atta Beira’(허신(虛神) 아타 베이라) appears.]
I don’t know what it is, but since it’s a god, it must be very dangerous. But Hyeon Gyu-ha, wouldn’t there be a solution somehow?
“Gyu-ha, what is that?”
In Yoo-shin, who called Hyeon Gyu-ha without much worry because he had seen it so far, was shocked. His face, which had never lost its composure even in the face of a monster wave, became stiff.
“.......He is the highest god in Taino mythology.”
“Really?? a G-God?”
“yes. God.”
Hyeon Gyu-ha, who roughly rubbed his face, looked down at In Yoo-shin and smiled brightly.
“We’re screwed.”

HM: definitely not me, thinking about IDWTR when Hyeon Gyu-ha took off while grabbing In Yoo-shin by his waist.
PA: Their skinship is definitely evolving. Hehehe
