These Lunatics are Obsessed With Me

Chapter 51



PR: Xashaha


I turned my head while looking at Kang Yoo-hyun, who hammered the nail with a firm voice. Song Cha-hyun looked lost in thought for a moment. Then I raised my head and looked at Kang Yoo-hyun.

“I understand. Let’s do that.”

“Really?”

To be honest, I’d feel more comfortable if I only used a small portion of my skill. I thought I could use the Catnip skill a lot because my mental stat was high, but it was still tiring for me.

I wonder if it would be okay for the Freya guild though, since they gave up a huge reward from the dungeon to bring me in.Wouldn’t it be more profitable for them to use me as much as possible? 

While looking at Song Cha-hyun with that thought, my eyes met hers. Song Cha-hyun’s eyes narrowed.

“That’s all right. We’ll let you know who’s eligible for your skill later.”

“Yes…”

Song Cha-hyun, who suddenly answered coldly, turned around. Now that my role will mainly be in the 2nd or 3rd area, I have a lot of free time, and I only need to apply my auxiliary skill to three or four people a day.

It’s a total jackpot, isn’t it? I feel like I’ve suddenly become a high-paid employee who steals monthly salaries.

“Hyung, I’ll go ahead.”

“Okay.”

Detector Kang Soo-hyun was scheduled to move with Hae Song-ha at the forefront of the party. The main combatants of the 1st Battalion, such as Sung Yoo-bin, Han Yeo-reum, Cha Min-hee, and Hae Song-yeon, will be deployed there, and other support personnel, including myself, will move in under protection from Kang Yoo-hyun, Eden, and the rest of the Valkyrie members.

“…”

“…”

Kang Soo-hyun also glanced at Kang Yoo-hyun, who was standing next to me. However, Kang Soo-hyun didn’t say anything to him, and Kang Yoo-hyun also just looked at him with a cold gaze. What kind of brothers lack any kind of conversation? I clicked my tongue and slapped Kang Yoo-hyun on the back.

“Hey! Tell Soo-hyun to be careful.”

“…”

Despite that, Kang Yoo-hyun remained stubbornly silent. Moreover, it was my hand that hurt from hitting his back. Damn it.

“It’s fine, hyung.”

“Ahhh.”

In the end, Kang Soo-hyun smiled awkwardly and ran to follow Song-Yul’s call. I glanced at Kang Yoo-hyun, who remained silent until the end.

“Why?”

"

"

“Huh, nothing.”

What would change if I nag at the twisted main character? After sighing, I looked back at the end of the party.

I couldn’t shake the feeling that this was a relaxing vacation spot no matter how many times I looked at it. I wonder if this is what a deserted island without any tourists feels like? 

When I walk on the soft sand, I feel like there is no other place like this but paradise. However at that moment, something viscous and black started running fiercely towards us. The party stopped moving and immediately started preparing for battle.

“Kkuwooo!”

“Kkueeek!”

“…”

Compared to seeing it in a low quality video, the murlocs look even more… ugly in real life. They’re just hideous. Murlocs, with fish heads and human limbs, don’t look as cute as the ones I’ve seen in games.

That’s how I feel personally. Good thing, I couldn’t see it in detail because it was at the end of the party. I saw the murlocs waddling on their short legs with clouded eyes, and their fishy smell seems to waft up here. 

“Prepare for battle!”

Sung Yoo-bin’s voice echoed across the beach. Her usually calm demeanour had transformed into a fierce one in no time,and before long, the murlocs horde clashed with the Valkyrie members. As she charged forward, she slammed her fist down onto the beach before the murlocs could get any closer.

Bang!

Bright red flames quickly engulfed the horde of murlocs. With her reverse-phase skill, they were unable to resist and turned into ashes at the mercy of the Sung Yoo-bin’s flames. The bright red inferno swirled menacingly around her. And I could feel the hot heat all the way from here.

“Wow…”

Kang Yoo-hyun and Eden were apathetic next to me as I marvelled at the sight. Maybe it was because they had confidence that they could do that too.

Unfortunately, as a B-class, I couldn’t imitate them, so I watched from behind, consistently exclaiming in admiration as the other Valkyrie members joined in after seeing Song Yoo-bin’s fist attack, annihilating the murlocs in earnest.

“Ah, these bastard fish-heads!”

“Hey! Block that javelin!”

“You won’t die if you get hit by something like that, so don’t worry!”

“Damn you!”

“…”

Despite the somewhat excessive and vulgar language, it was interesting to see parts of the story that were not included in the novel. The Valkyrie members were more foul-mouthed than I thought during the battle! As I watched them with sparkling eyes, my body was suddenly dragged backwards and I looked back in surprise.

“We should go now..”

“It’s dangerous to get close, Yi Jin-ah.”

Kang Yoo-hyun and Eden each grabbed one of my arms. I wondered if they were overprotective of me like I was a child abandoned by the riverside. As I lowered my head, Yong-sik also grabbed the hem of my clothes with his short front paws and whimpered.

“Kkyuu, kkyu…”

“Uh…Uhh. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Dad will be careful.”

I apologised to Yong-sik and backstepped. 

Well, I’m just a B-rank, so I do have to be cautious. After all, I could even get beaten by weak murlocs in no time.

I sighed inwardly and watched the battle end. The first wave of murlocs was quickly defeated, and large piles of corpses were piled up on the beach. They then turned into some materials and items and disappeared into ashes.

The collection team came quickly and began to retrieve the items. I have nothing to do right now, so maybe I should join them? While looking at the collection team with that in mind, I glanced at Kang Yoo-hyun, and he looked at me and shook his head. How could he tell what I was thinking? That’s scary.

“Hunter Han Yi Jin!”

“…!”

From a distance, Song Yoo-bin, who was standing over murloc corpses, waved at me. It was quite a bizarre sight, and it made the whole scene even more frightening and unsettling.

“Ha–ha–ha…”

I awkwardly waved my hand back at her. I wondered if she could see me clearly from such a distance, but she seemed to notice my waving hand and started jumping around on the spot energetically.

It seems like she’s feeling good because the battle ended well. I turned my head after seeing Sung Yoo-bin and Valkyrie members who defeated the murlocs safely.

“Huh…?”

At that moment, a white foam-like thing boiled up in the sea not far from Sung Yoo-bin. It was a strange sight, so I took a closer look, and at that moment, something emerged from the sea.

“…Hunter Sung Yoo-bin!”

The huge thing that came up immediately rushed toward Sung Yoo-bin, since it seemed that Song Yoo-bin, who was on top of the murlocs corpses, was the nearest target.

I called Sung Yoo-bin loudly and pointed to the sea, but it was already too late. When Sung Yoo-bin turned her head, the monster that had come up, splashing seawater, had already attacked her.

Kwagwagwagwang!

The sound was extremely loud, as if a bomb had been dropped, and everything around them was swept away. Even I, who was behind her, felt the shockwave and bent my back.

“Ugh…!”

What on earth is going on here?

Just when I thought the surroundings had quieted down, I looked up again and my eyes widened at the incredible sight before me.

“Grr, gr…”

“…!”

The sea monster with a long and massive body was roaring with its head against the ground. Such a huge monster is supposed to appear from Area 3, so why is it here…? However, before I could even think about that, the monster’s head got stuck in the beach sand.

Kwaang!

It was a hit from Sung Yoo-bin who was holding the giant monster’s head with one hand. And the flames pouring out of her immediately engulfed the monster.

“Kwaghh!”

The monster writhed in pain as it burned in the flames. The monster’s long body was in contact with the sea, and as it struggled hard, it collided with the water’s surface and created a huge splash.

“Attack!”

The other Valkyrie members waited for the flames to subside before they attacked. In an instant, the suddenly emerged giant monster was taken down. When I saw it, I was relieved of my surprise.

“Phew.”

There are Hae Song-ha and Kang Soo-hyun looking for a way ahead of them, so that could be a big problem. I followed the collection team and approached the front of the party.

“Hunter Sung Yoo-bin!”

“…!”

“Are you okay?”

Sung Yoo-bin, who was surrounded by Valkyrie members, approached me through the crowd. She looked better than I had expected.

“I’m all right. Did anything happen to you?”

“No, I’m fine.”

Of course, I didn’t do anything behind the scenes. As I nodded my head, Song Cha-hyun and Song-Yul approached me with serious expressions.

“This is the first time a water dragon has appeared in Area 1.”

“Water dragon? That thing from before?”

“Yeah, kind of a small one. It’s an undeniable dragon.”

“…That was definitely the ones coming out of Area 3, right?”

It was a high-level monster that spawned from where a mid-boss appeared. I glanced at the dead dragon corpse in surprise.

“It seems like we need to be fully prepared from Area 1 this time.”

Song Cha-Hyun muttered in a serious tone, and her gaze fell on me.

It seemed that my turn came sooner than I expected.
