Leveling Up Alone

Chapter 203: Obtain A Dimensional Skill! (4)

The members of the Special S raid party immediately looked at their decision maker, Kwon Yoon-Ho. They usually discussed everything before making a decision, but he was the one who ultimately made the decisions. After all, he was the leader of their raid party.

The reason they trusted and followed Kwon Yoon-Ho was not that he was strong or amazing, but rather because the average age of the raid party members was quite young. Most of them were still immature and found it difficult to be part of an organization, but they were not mature enough to make decisions on their own yet.

It went without saying that not all Hunters were capable. This was true for the Special S raid party members as well since it had only been a few years since they awakened, and all of them lived normal lives before becoming Hunters. Hence, they depended on Kwon Yoon-Ho to make critical decisions on their behalf.

"Excuse me… Han-Yeol-nim…?" One of the Special S raid party members raised his hand.

"Hmm? Yeah?"

Han-Yeol was already speaking casually to all of the Special S raid party members, except for the member who was over thirty years old. Technically, that member was older than Han-Yeol, so he could not bring himself to talk casually to him.

There was no need for him to speak so respectfully based on social status, as the hierarchy of Hunters was decided by their rank and not their age. Therefore, nobody would object if he spoke casually to the older man. However, Han-Yeol was not raised to be disrespectful to someone he just met, especially someone older, simply because he held a higher social status.

"Is there a reason for us to hunt the boss monster no matter what?"

This was a common question asked by people lacking confidence. They would inquire if the action was justifiable instead of honestly expressing their fear or lack of confidence.

Han-Yeol understood how it felt to be in the other person’s shoes, as he too lacked confidence during his school days due to his childhood marred by poverty. That was why he completely understood what the Special S raid party members were thinking."

“Hey, Yoon-Ho.”

“Yes, Han-Yeol-nim?”

“We’re already at the end of our hunt, right?”

“Yes.”

“And this was the most profitable hunt you guys have ever been on in your entire life, right?”

“Yes…”

The Special S raid party was actually in a festive mood deep inside.

They were no match for Han-Yeol and Mujahid in terms of hunting speed, but they were able to hitch a ride on the backs of the two battle maniacs and experience the best hunt of their lives.

Of course, extending their trip for another day might have been necessary, but most of them had nothing else to do after the hunt, so it wasn't much of a burden for them.

In fact, they were more than glad to extend the hunt as it allowed them to safely take down many more monsters than they usually could.

"Well, I don't really understand why I need to explain myself in the first place. I already told you that Mujahid and I can handle it ourselves if you guys don't want to tag along, right?"

Tak!

Han-Yeol placed his hand on Mujahid's shoulder.

Despite being much more handsome than Han-Yeol, Mujahid had one flaw: he was short. Nevertheless, the prince was fired up after experiencing Han-Yeol's touch for the first time.

Tak!

He clenched his fists and banged them together before shouting, "Oh! I will wipe them all out for you, hyung-nim!"

Kwon Yoon-Ho was shaken after seeing Mujahid get fired up. Despite the fact that acquiring Kwon Yoon-Ho's dimensional skill was more important than hunting the boss monster, Han-Yeol decided to roll the dice.

Most people lacking self-confidence would find themselves caught up in the pace of charismatic people like Han-Yeol. The fact that Prince Mujahid openly professed his confidence in Han-Yeol further shook Kwon Yoon-Ho.

"W-We will go with you. No, please take us with you!" Kwon Yoon-Ho exclaimed.

It seemed that Han-Yeol's gambit paid off as Kwon Yoon-Ho was completely absorbed by his charisma.

Being able to attract people was a skill Han-Yeol possessed even before awakening as a Hunter.

"Alright, we started hunting together, so let's end the hunt together as well," Han-Yeol said.

It was decided that they would hunt together from now on until the end of this hunt.

"Thank you very much!"

"I'm glad I can stay longer with oppa! Heehee!"

"Me too!"

The three girls quickly surrounded Han-Yeol, grabbing his arms and trying their best to look as charming as possible.

Han-Yeol was already used to women trying to charm him, so he was not bothered by them at all. Still, it was quite ironic that he did not spare them a glance, even though the three girls might be a bit lacking compared to the women around him, as they were still pretty enough to debut in the entertainment industry.

"Then, let's get moving," Han-Yeol said.

"Yes, Han-Yeol-nim!"

The Special S raid party followed Han-Yeol, determined to hunt the Cheolwon hunting ground's boss monster.

Creak… Creak… Creak… Creak…?

All of them were currently riding the tractor trucks.

The Cheolwon hunting ground was quite vast, with the boss monster located in the northeastern area known as the former Woljeong-ri, while the place Han-Yeol and the others were hunting in was the 'hotspot' of the Cheolwon hunting ground, Mount Bukgyesan. The group traveled on the trucks for quite a while until...

“Kieeeeek!”

Chwak!

Mavros cried out as he flew past the group.

“Whoa!”

And Han-Yeol was riding on the black dragon.

It wasn't that there was no space on the truck, but Han-Yeol preferred to fly with Mavros instead of being crammed with the others. Moreover, there were restrictions on flying outside the hunting grounds, so he decided to make the most out of this opportunity.

“Flying with you is the best, Mavros!” Han-Yeol exclaimed.

“Kieeeek!”?Mavros cried out as if asking why he was stating the obvious.

The black dragon still didn't have a saddle, and since a saddle wasn't a mechanical object, Yoo-Bi couldn't create one for him.

Han-Yeol searched online and discovered that there were a few maestros who specialized in saddle-making. Unfortunately, none of those skilled artisans could be found in South Korea.

‘They said that there are some in Nepal and Mongolia, right?’?he thought.

It was while he was thinking of who to call that the walkie-talkie on his waist suddenly buzzed.

Pshht!

[Are you having fun in the sky, hyung-nim?]

It was Mujahid, and his voice was full of envy.

The only other thing he enjoyed aside from fighting was flying, and he possessed an impressive collection of private planes and jets. Moreover, he was an avid aficionado of paragliding, skydiving, and basically any other activity that involved flying.

Unfortunately, South Korea was not as developed when it came to those kinds of extreme leisure activities, so he was currently suffering from flight withdrawal. That was the reason he couldn't help but feel extremely jealous after seeing Han-Yeol freely flying through the sky on Mavros.

Psshht!

“Keke! It feels like I’m walking on the clouds!” Han-Yeol replied.

Psshhht!

[Ah… I’m so jealous… Furion is an awesome partner, but a flying pet monster is simply too amazing…]

Psshhht!

“I agree! Keke!”

Psshhht!

[I’m already so jealous of noonim’s flight ability, but even hyung-nim is flying now! I guess I’m destined to be jealous of others for the rest of my life!]

“Hahahaha!”

It was quite funny to hear Mujahid talk about being jealous of others.

Psshht!

[Oh right, speaking of noonim…]

“What about her?”

Han-Yeol's focus sharpened as he heard Mujahid mention Tayarana.

Despite pretending not to be interested in her during the time they were together, he was still a man, after all. There was no way a man could not be attracted to the woman who had been picked as the most beautiful woman in the world for numerous consecutive years. He had been suppressing whatever infatuation he had for her.

Han-Yeol's rough past had trained him to suppress his emotions, enabling him to control himself. However, most ordinary men would probably have started confessing their feelings to her after spending just a few hours in her presence.

Psshhht!

[Do you know what kind of unique item, the suit, noonim is wearing?]

“I have no idea, but it’s definitely a good one, right?”

Han-Yeol had noticed a long time ago that the suit Tayarana was wearing was no ordinary unique item, judging by its extraordinary abilities.

The suit possessed absurd defense and its own attacking capability, allowing its user to zip through the air at near-supersonic speed. On top of that, Han-Yeol used his Demon Eyes to examine the suit and discovered that it even had the ability to replenish its user's mana.

Han-Yeol suspected that the suit probably had one or two additional abilities, but he was not sure what they were as he did not get the chance to inspect it with his own hands. Nonetheless, he was certain that the suit Tayarana used was no ordinary unique item.

Psshht!

[Haha! That suit is made up of numerous unique items. In other words, every piece of it is a unique item.]

“WHAT?!”

Han-Yeol was flabbergasted.

Psshhttt!

[I bet you are surprised, hyung-nim. Noonim is Father’s most beloved child, as well as the future of our country. Not only that, but she is also the role model for all of us Egyptian Hunters!]

“That’s…”

[The United States might be powerful, but there is one thing that our country, Egypt, is better than them at.]

“The massive deposit of unique items…”

Psshtt!

[Bingo! Haha!]

Egypt possessed the most unique items in their lands. The Egyptian Government never publicly announced how many unique items were in their possession or how many had been discovered so far, and only a select few knew this information.

It was normal for most countries to hide the number of unique items they possessed, and there were ways for people to find out. However, Egypt was different; they possessed an overwhelming number of unique items, making it impossible for anyone to count accurately. The only certainty was that it numbered in the hundreds.

The speculation of Egypt having hundreds of unique items alone was more than enough to surpass the United States, placing them in second place in terms of unique items possessed.

The reason Egypt had so many unique items was all thanks to the dungeons unique to their lands, the Pyramids. Some scholars even deduced that there were still many more unique items hidden in the country.

Psshhht!

[That is why Father gave the best kind of unique item, a unique set item, to noonim. I recall that Father personally went to great lengths to complete the set after hearing about it, but I was surprised when he gave it to noonim instead of using it himself. He really is an amazing man in many ways. Haha!]

“T-That’s amazing…”

[Well, I had no problems with it, but that caused quite the ruckus among us siblings.]

“Huh? But why? Your father and the two of you are the only awakened beings in your family, right?”

Psshht!

[Yes, but those fools were blinded by greed and dared to go against Father. Of course, Father was not someone to let things slide by, so he executed a few of the retainers and royals.]

“Wow… He really is amazing in many ways…”

Psshhht!

[I guess we both agree on that.]

Han-Yeol was truly amazed to hear that every part of the suit was a unique item on its own. What amazed him even more was the fact that Phaophator had gone to great lengths to complete it, only to give it to his daughter as a gift.

‘Would I be able to do the same thing?’?he wondered.

He could tell from the first time he met Phaophator that he was an amazing person, but he never imagined that the man was this amazing.

‘Will I be able to be someone as amazing as he is if I start my own country…?’?he wondered before he shook his head.

Han-Yeol was in the process of starting his own company and guild, but suddenly, he felt the desire to become a ruler like Phaophator.

Some might accuse him of turning a country into a monarchy to cement his rule, but his outstanding leadership and charisma squashed all dissent against him. Phaophator was a ruler beloved by his people, and almost every Egyptian worshiped him as their pharaoh.

‘I should probably learn a few things from him when I go to Egypt,’?Han-Yeol steeled his resolve to learn from the pharaoh.

Psshhtt!

[Hyung-nim?]

“Ah, sorry about that. I was thinking about something else for a moment. Anyway, that’s quite amazing. Who knew that someone would be able to cover themselves from head to toe with unique items, right?”

[Keke! Yeah, I agree. By the way, I think noonim suddenly reached the Master Rank for some reason.]

“Hahaha…” Han-Yeol awkwardly laughed while thinking, ‘So he was aware of it all this while.’

Han-Yeol had a hunch as to how Tayarana suddenly became a Master Rank Hunter, and it seemed that Mujahid had caught up on it too.

Psshht!

[A Master Rank Hunter covered from head to toe with unique items… I can’t imagine just how powerful noonim is going to be from now on…]

“Hahaha! Yeah, I agree with you on that one!”

‘Yeah, now that he mentioned it…’?Han-Yeol realized.

Tayarana was already the strongest S Rank Hunter in the world, but her sudden rise to Master Rank was undoubtedly going to send shockwaves all over the world.

In fact, this could be the birth of the most powerful Master Rank Hunter the world has ever seen.
