If the Earthlings misunderstand on their own, that’s actually a benefit for him. Especially if that misunderstanding covers up his cri, he shouldn’t refuse it.
‘Phew.’
In that case, he has avoided prison ti. Now, all that’s left is for him to leave the scene without any further issues…
“Wait a minute!”
At that mont, a reporter standing in the corner asked Kiryeo a question.
“By the way, Hunter Kim, how did you get so injured?”
The S-class hunter who appeared in front of him was stabbed in the body. Considering this, it wasn’t sothing to be taken lightly.
“A, and… since the cocoon hasn’t disappeared, could it be that there are still dangerous monsters inside?”
A long wound that started from the shoulder and ended at the ribs. If a high-ranking Awakened could get wounded like that, there must have been an unimaginably strong enemy lurking inside the cocoon. The reporter swallowed his saliva with a tense face.
Of course, the answer he got back was…
“No. What’s left in there are all C-rank monsters.”
It was quite nonsensical. In reality, this hunter was defeated by a much weaker monster than expected. Since revealing that truth wouldn’t be beneficial, Kiryeo ultimately avoided a clear explanation for his injuries.
“Don’t worry about this. I got hurt from sothing else.”
But, as expected, this was not a situation that could be resolved with just a few words. Earthlings are generally very curious, and among them were those who made it their business to gather information.
“Uh, anyway, I guess I’ll just…”
To avoid the barrage of questions, Kiryeo quickly left the scene. He ran away using his injury as an excuse.
“As you can see, I need to go get treated now.”
“Ah!”
“I’ll leave the remaining C-class monsters to the association.”
Then, one of the staff mbers hurriedly followed him.
“H, Hunter! We’ll take you to the hospital!”
Kim Kiryeo gradually moved away from the pine forest.
– Click!
The reporter quietly captured the scene with his cara.

Dungeon Break at E-rank Gate. Normally, such incidents would have only circulated as local news at most.
[Here’s the first news. A dungeon break occurred at a waste disposal site in Gampo…]
But this ti was different. The nest incident that occurred in the coastal village unusually occupied the national 9 o’clock news slot.
Monsters of D and C-rank appeared in an E-rank gate. So wondered if the unusual changes were the reason the cocoon gained attention, but there was an even more surprising aspect to this exclusive report.
“Wow.”
After all, the dungeon break involved an S-rank, which was quite sothing…!
“What’s going on?”
“Viewers watching the broadcast were initially intrigued by the news that a top-tier awakener was at the seaside. However, the announcer’s subsequent statent was shocking.
[anwhile, the severely injured S-rank hunter has been safely transferred to the hospital.]
What supports this explanation is the footage obtained from a local journalist. In the video, a certain Hunter who was recently announced as an S-rank was standing.
He was in a state where almost his entire upper body was blurred with a red mosaic.
The dia didn’t call him ‘severely injured’ for nothing.
There are only four top-ranked hunters in Korea, and one of them shows up in that state overnight. How could this not cause an uproar?
[24h My New Post (63)]
Of course, the world was in an uproar because of the news just now.
[Wow]
[???]
[What?]
How did that Hunter get injured?
What happened inside the cocoon?
And since the waste-disposal gate is supposed to be managed by the governnt, why did that dungeon break in the first place?
Questions poured in endlessly.
[Title: Hello. I am a Gampo resident.]
But 30 minutes later, starting with a post from soone claiming to be a resident of Gampo, more and more detailed eyewitness accounts began to erge.
==========================
Title: Hello. I am a resident of Gampo.

There are many rumors about the abandoned dungeon break incident that was shown on TV, but I have sothing I really want to tell you as a person who witnessed the incident firsthand.
I am not good at writing on bulletin boards, but I will try to explain it anyway…
==========================
Netizens soon learned the detailed outline of the S-class injury.
==========================
(omitted)
So, if I were to copy what I heard, it would be like this.
Hunter Kim Kiryeo happened to find out that the dungeon break had been broken while he was touring our area.
At that ti, he heard that soone was dead in the dungeon, so he went right in.
To bring out the body…
Honestly, how can an S-class person enjoy such a small dungeon break?
He acted purely out of respect and rembrance for the deceased Hunter.
But instead of expressing gratitude for such a noble act, is it really right to slander him without any basis…
I can also explain why he got hurt.
Below is a ssenger conversation with an acquaintance of mine who works at the Korean dical Association.
===========================
However, due to the nature of ‘eyewitness accounts,’ the posts they saw included so degree of subjective distortion.

I didn’t realize there was a limit on the size of each post. So, I’m creating a new post.
==========================
A little later, an explanation about why the hunter Kiryeo got injured appeared on a certain online forum. To be precise, it was more about explaining the characteristics of the [Silent Graveyard].
As reported in the news, the [Silent Graveyard] was experiencing a mutation phenonon where the internal difficulty levels were changing. However, upon closer investigation, additional anomalies were discovered.
=================
…There was no boss.
=================
After the situation had cald down, the Hunter Association sent investigators to determine what kind of monsters had erged from the nest. However, they encountered the bizarre phenonon of not finding any leading or dominant creatures at the scene.
With blue feathers and thin arms, only the emaciated new bird species was found in large numbers in the aftermath of the hunt in the nest.
‘There was no boss?’
Perhaps it was the missing boss that injured Kim Kiryeo? And the question of whether a dungeon like [Silent Graveyard] could produce a monster capable of injuring an S-rank Hunter remains…
This could already be sufficiently explained by past events. There is a precedent.
[Hey, didn’t Ahn Yoonseung also get taken down when he was F-rank? Wasn’t it the sa kind of nonsense monster appearing suddenly?]
When considering all the information, the situation where an S-rank Hunter unexpectedly sustained injuries is sowhat explainable.
[Wow, that ans it could have been a huge disaster… So, there was a monster strong enough to injure an S-rank Hunter without anyone knowing.]
[If there had been any delay, it would have been a complete disaster. There are hardly any Hunters stationed there as it is.]
[ㄷㄷㄷ]
People soon ford a near-certainty that Kim Kiryeo must have encountered a monstrous entity of imnse power inside that red cocoon.
In reality… The only subtle difference was that the boss of this gate handled tools.
“For so reason, my ears suddenly itch.”
Well, it didn’t matter much. As intended, Kim Kiryeo had easily deceived the public by not clearly revealing who had attacked him.
However, the quiet deanor he used to hide the theft began to be increasingly exaggerated and misinterpreted…

About three hours later, the internet was thrown into chaos once again. This ti, a local resident who had witnessed the incident uploaded a photo of Kiryeo’s injuries from the scene.
[Was he really injured like that???]
[F*ck, did they mosaic him like that on TV?]
[Shocking, really]
The unedited photo from the scene was truly shocking. In the picture, the man had thick spear-like implents piercing through his shoulder and torso. The bleeding had left his upper body in a state where there was hardly a part left untouched.
“Crazy…”
Being a hunter is a profession dedicated to hunting monsters. So naturally, they get hurt a lot due to the nature of their job…When faced with such an unfiltered reality, it’s inevitable that anyone will feel a new sense of emotion.
“No, even though he was injured that badly, he clenched his teeth and continued to deal with it until the end?”
This incident caused Kim Kiryeo’s evaluation to change drastically.
[Ugh. Don’t you think about those who go around cursing at people like that?]
[ㅠㅠㅠㅠ]
[Hey, have you seen the new news? The grandfather who was searching for his granddaughter did an interview. Seeing him with red eyes, expressing his gratitude, made cry too…]
Since it’s a dangerous job, this industry has always been busy taking care of their own lives. There was no sacrifice to make for a hunter who was already dead.
In an era like this, to have an S-rank Hunter, covered in blood and enduring such injuries, go so far as to retrieve soone else’s body…
“It’s touching. Really.”
Soon after, a local journalist from Gampo released a photo of Kim Kiryeo tenderly holding the deceased D-rank hunter. Seeing this image, even the Hunter’s critics began to reconsider their stance.
[We were the ones who had no answer]
[;; It was natural for such a dignified person to see other things as beasts….]
[Hello, this is the manager. As of today, this is a fan cafe for Kim Kiryeo in Korea, and if you write slanderous comnts about the hunter in question, you will be banned from rejoining. If you don’t like it, you can leave.]
They were like people who had been struck on the head, repenting for their previous judgnts. In the midst of this, netizens quickly sought a new target for their criticism.
[Where did all the people who used to curse at Kim Kiryeo’s personality hide?ㅋㅋ]
That’s the nature of cyberbullying, isn’t it? People began targeting and mocking past posts where they had criticized Kiryeo. For example, this kind of post beca a common example that quickly multiplied.

====================================
Who would have expected that public opinion would change like this in just a few days?
‘Ugh, not only did I not gain a new body, but the one I have is now ruined! How could such misfortune happen…!’
At the sa ti, Kiryeo sighed deeply, lanting his fate.
He had lost the bodies, and now he was facing a hefty dical bill. Anyway, in his opinion, the damage he suffered from this incident wasn’t small.
‘What a waste of ti!’
Heuk, heuk!
Thus, Kiryeo wiped away his tears, unaware that he was actually gaining other benefits from the situation.
Moreover, in January, in that month when the new year begins, an incident that will put a stop to this positive flow will occur…
