Chapter 109: Chapter 108

"Korean taxis are too small."

"Thomas, the taxis here are of the same size as the taxis in America"

"aha. okay? Well, I must have taken a taxi before."

Thomas Andre forced his colossal body into the back seat of the cab and talked to Laura in the front seat.

"But is the hotel still far away?"

"I have to go a long way. 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 quietly broke into a cold sweat in front of them.

'I'm scared to death. I burned it for no reason.'

I can't believe this foreigner is the famous Thomas Andre.

It's not an exaggeration at all, it was clear that the moment he stretched even a little, this taxi would be crumpled like a sheet of paper.

"Oh, uncomfortable. Shouldn't you have waited a little longer and got a bigger car?"

'Hey...! Why are you so blocked today? hurry! hurry!'

Every time he wriggled behind him, the taxi driver's spirit seemed to fly away.

"...so Laura."

Thomas' eyes, crumpled in the back seat, suddenly became serious, and he brought up the main topic that had flown all the way to Korea.

"Did you find out Sung Suho's current location?"

"I'm still inquiring, but it won't be long."

Even so, from the moment Laura got into the taxi, she kept looking at the work he had entrusted to her on her tablet PC.

With cool blue eyes, she said while quickly skimming through the information sent by US employees on her tablet.

"It is easy to find out the contact information of hunters in Korea. Because the land is so narrow, there is a saying that no matter where the hunters are, if they fall down, they are within reach."

"When you fall down, your nose touches you. That's an interesting expression."

It was neither a proverb nor an exaggeration.

Hunters with excellent physical abilities, especially Thomas Andre's physical abilities, could be reached in an instant in a small country like Korea with just a little bit of running around.

"By the way, Thomas. Is the character of the prophecy Sung Soo-ho right?"

"That's for sure. No matter how old you are, you are still not old enough to get dementia."

"Of course, I do not doubt him. But isn't this prophecy too specific compared to the previous prophecies?"

"Hehe. Not really. Maybe the old woman got better at prophesying as she got older. Originally, fortunetellers look more spiritual as they get older, don't they?"

Thomas smirked and remembered the face of Norma Selner, the prophetess who had sent him here.

"Although she is in the same position as her, she is also really amazing. I would never have thought that he would be able to survive by waking up almost on the verge of death."

"It is very fortunate. Thomas, your one and only friend almost passed away."

"Wasn't Laura my friend?"

"I'm sorry but we're only business partners"

In spite of Laura's firm answer, Thomas only giggled as if he was having fun.

Just then, Laura's eyes, which had been reading the vast amount of information on the tablet, stopped at one point.

"I found it. Hunter Sung Suho."

"oh? okay? What are you doing?"

"Hmm. If this information is correct..."

Thomas' eyes flashed as he found a delicious prey.

However, Laura continued her explanation with a frown.

"A C-class summoner..."

What? Summoner? Besides, he's a C-rank hunter? How is that so?

"Since the information was recently registered, there will be almost no errors. And you know that Korean mana power meters are quite good."

"Is there a possibility that it is another hunter with the same name?"

"Of course it is possible. It's not like there aren't people with the same name."

"You will know that when you meet and check it in person. Or just give it a good night's sleep and come back."

Thomas Andre muttered with a smirk as if he were on his way to a delicious restaurant.

'But he'll have to hit it anyway. If someone dares to make me walk in vain, honey chestnuts could get very sick.'

It was a trip that he started last night impulsively, but this trip to Korea was very important to him.

'Glacier Dungeon.'

According to Norma Selner's prophecy, the help of Sung Suho, a Korean hunter, was essential to attack the place.

And Norma Selner, who always made confusing prophecies by writing examples and metaphors that seemed familiar and unknown, picked it up this time and told me the name 'Sung Suho's.

This was by no means something to be ignored.

Especially to Thomas Andre, who has been friends with her for decades.

'It's Korea.'

He was soaked in reminiscence while admiring the scenery of Korea passing by outside the taxi.

It was definitely the first time I came to Korea in my life.

However, the reason why he's fluently speaking Korean.

Was because Norma Selnar suddenly suggested that he learn Korean a long time ago

-Thomas. I feel very free now that I am retired. How about learning Korean at least during this time?

-korean? what is that?

-There is a country called Korea in East Asia. It's the language there.

Why do I have to learn the language of that country all of a sudden when I'm old?

-Once you learn it, it might come in handy later.

Holy shit. If grandma says something like that, if you don't learn it, you'll be in big trouble.

It was from then.

He started learning Korean without knowing English.

Norma Selner was a famous prophet even before her awakening.

Of course, she announced her retirement, saying that her ability to predict had disappeared a long time ago, but nevertheless, she was a celebrity who occasionally was asked for advice from political and business figures whenever there was an important matter.

If such a person said, 'Learn Korean!' without context, there was no choice but to learn Korean diligently, even if it was embarrassing.

'Then later, I became completely immersed in Korean dramas.'

Thomas had been thinking about it for a while.

'Maybe the old woman told me to watch a drama because I was retiring and looked so bored. Or that I first saw my future living in Korean dramas.'

It was Thomas who, until recently, had only thought about Korea that much.

However, since he came all the way to Korea in search of a hunter named Sung Suho, he thought maybe this was the future Norma Selner saw.

"Hmm. It's Korea..."

I can't. My body is itching, I can't stand it.

Thomas Andre's expression, which had been lost in thought, suddenly changed.

"Laura. I'm really sorry, but let's meet him first before we go to the hotel."

"What do you mean?"

"Uh, you're okay, right? You aren't tired right?"

"Of course I am tired. It's become quite gentlemanly to ask out of courtesy when you're going to do whatever you want anyway."

"Awesome! I never thought I would hear such compliments from Laura!"

"It's an insult. Anyway, I already found the address of Sung Suho, so please go there."

* * *

[...Little Lord.]

Beru's expression was more tense than ever.

On the other hand, Suho was just restless.

"No! Do I really have to move? How did the foreigner know where my house is?"

[I'm sorry, but it seems that the master's personal information is now public property.]

Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu...!

A huge energy was running in a straight line towards Suho, who was resting at home for a long time.

At first, I thought it was a dungeon break.

Or at least I thought that a monster like the Minotaur would come running.

But it was a person.

A foreigner too.

Coincidentally, the famous S-class hunter I saw on the news during the day was rushing towards this side with great honesty.

Kwajik! Kwajik!

It was such an enormous nuisance that the sidewalk blocks collapsed with a wobble whenever his legs stepped off the ground.

Suho sighed and greeted him outside the house.

There was no doubt that he was his target as he ran so blatantly with energy

"Oh, what? Could it be that you came to meet me?"

Eventually, Thomas Andre arrived in front of Suho.

"..."

Suho just lifted his head and looked up at his face with a curious expression.

How could a gray-haired grandfather be so muscular?

The big old man, who looked at least two inches taller than Suho, had bulging muscles all over his body, vividly exuding his presence.

'With his level, I'd have been able to beat the Minator without magic'

Suho reflected for a moment.

I felt quite strong after leveling up recently, but like Beru's expression, I seriously considered whether I was still at the level of an ant larva.

Thomas Andre lightly put Laura, a middle-aged female secretary who had been carrying it around his side with his big forearm, and asked Suho directly.

"Are you Sung Suho?"

"..."

Wow, this foreign grandfather speaks Korean well.

If Ammut was a human, it would have felt like this.

"What? Are you so scared that your mouth froze? Most do though"

As Suho didn't answer and just stared blankly at him, Thomas Andre smiled and showed his teeth in earnest.

Whoaaaagh!

At that moment, tremendous speculation erupted from his whole body, and began to press Suho.

"Still, you have to squeeze out an answer. If you don't want to die that is."

No, it's all like this?

Is there any grandfather who does not have such a case?

Suho was dumbfounded and looked at him blankly.

"For now, I'm Sung Suho, but... What kind of business does the old man have for me to come to see me so late at night?"

"...what? old man?"

Thomas' expression crumpled at Suho's words.

Because I studied Korean diligently, the meaning was automatically translated into his head.

Old Man.

"Ha ha ha! Have you ever seen such a cheeky b*stard? Laura! did you hear How dare this cocky b*stard call me an old man?"

"What."

So that's how it works?

Suho was genuinely perplexed.

But in fact, no cowardly man dared to tell Goliath Thomas Andre that he was old.

"OK. I will personally confirm that you are really the Sung Suho of the prophecy."

Thomas took control of the entire area, spewing out even greater speculation than just a moment ago.

Coo cooo coo...!

Kwajik! Kwajik!

At the same time, an ignorant energy oppressed the space, and the ground they were standing on began to crack as if an earthquake had struck.

Knowing that this would happen, Laura, who had been far away early, was shaking her head as if she couldn't stop it.

In this ignorant gravitational field like a natural disaster, Suho is...

coo-goo-goo-goo!

"hmm?"

For a moment Thomas Andre felt a chill.

How can a mere C-class hunter...

stand still, enduring his own magic field?
