My Range is One Million

Chapter 124: Wipe Out

The others were still in the process of establishing their squad while Jaehwang and the girl were all set and ready to go. Of course, those who were apart of his previous squad were angry about everything he had said but Jaehwang didn’t mind it at all.

“Excuse me...” The girl said to Jaehwang.

“Ah...” Jaehwang then looked behind him to see who it was. The girl then pointed at a bench on the other side of the room and said,

“Can we talk over there?”

He then followed her over to the bench where they both sat down.

“I would like to apologize about what happened,” Jaehwang said.

“No no, Don’t worry about it, I’m sorry too,” The girl replied casually.

—She does seem really strong.

—She is.

Jaehwang said in agreement with the spirit.

“Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jaehwang, a level 7 hunter.”

“My name is Seongbin, level 8 hunter.”

“Level eight?” Jaehwang replied in shock.

“How old are you?”

“Seventeen.”

“Wow,” Jaehwang said in awe. She was only seventeen but she’s already so strong and advanced. The more she talked, the more surprised he becomes.

“I’ve been training since I was 13.”

Jaehwang walked over from the vending machine and handed her a drink.

“Your leg reminds me of something. But your injury doesn’t seem to slow you down.” Jaehwang said, she then smiled and replied,

“Don’t worry about it.”

Jaehwang mirrored her expression and took a sip from his drink.

“You seem really strong too,” Seongbin said. Obviously, she was strong but from what she had seen, Jaehwang and her were pretty close in terms of skill.

“You must have really good eyesight..” Jaehwang replied. He was known as a very powerful hunter who was recognized by everyone everywhere he went.

“So, how did you start? Becoming a hunter I mean...” Jaehwang asked and Seongbin took a deep breath and drank some of her soda before she answered his question.

She told him her entire story from when she was 13 all the way until recently.

Fortunately for her, she had received a lot of requests to participate in raids taking place all over the country ever since she became a hunter. Thanks to her outstanding skills at such a young age, she was branded as a very strong and reliable hunter. She was later accepted into a small but powerful and fairly well-known clan thanks to her father. However, one day she got into an accident while fighting off a monster on a raid that caused a severe leg injury two years ago.

She continued on explaining everything to Jaehwang.

“Oh, wow...” Jaehwang said feeling terrible about her story.

He felt bad hearing about what had happened to her yet she still continued to chase her dreams and that was what he found impressive. Especially because of the fact that she fought against such a high-leveled monster.

“Our entire raid squad almost died that day and we even failed our mission. My leg was bitten off by that monster and our healer couldn’t even fix it. Ever since then, it’s like I’ve always had to be supervised whenever I enter a mission. It’s such a shame, I used to be just like everyone else but nevertheless, I had no other choice than to get myself together and keep trying even though it’s still really difficult.”

Jaehwang then told her the story about his car accident and his parents. It must have been fate that caused them to cross paths. Just as when everything was starting to collapse, everything seems to have become brighter.

He took another sip of his soda, still feeling a bit terrible about her story. He actually had no reason for joining Seongbin’s team, he just wanted a chance to get to know her better.

—Stop!

The spirit shouted at Jaehwang.

—Quiet.

—Drink your soda alone!

—If the grape flavor wasn’t so expensive then I totally wouldn’t have drink it but I can’t waste any money by just not drinking it...

He took a refreshing sip from his soda and asked, “How’re your supporting skills?”

Every raid needs a type of a support skill in one way or another.

“It’s not bad, it usually does the trick but...” She hesitated to finish on what she was saying.

“But?”

“It’s quite useless now that my leg is left in this condition... The attack reaches about 50 meters but I can’t, not that fast...”

“I understand...” Jaehwang replied in a bit of a sad tone. He could see how sad she felt about not being able to properly participate in her missions like everyone else. “Hey”

“Yeah?” Seongbin replied.

“Do you need a lot of money? Jaehwang calmly asked.

“Money? I wish I had enough of it.”

“Really? Well, would you maybe like to borrow some?”

She looked at him with a confused expression. He then handed her a piece of paper and said, “Take this. It’s a map of the entire raid area, this will make things a lot easier. And... if you need any help then just let me know.”

Seongbin took the paper and looked at it for a second.

“Wow... Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.” She replied and Jaehwang smiled back.

“No problem. You already have it in you, so you could definitely do it on your own.”

“There’s something I’m curious about,” Seongbin asked.

“What is it?”

“Catching all these monsters and selling them would earn me a lot of money... how were you able to do all this?”

“Well, I’ve been doing this for a while and was able to pick up a lot of tips and tricks. I spent a lot of time saving up and collecting lots of money to use in case of emergencies or anything like that.”

“Interesting, I’m impressed.” She replied.

“Is there a certain type of monster around here that you would like to know about?” Jaehwang asked and Seongbin thought about it for a moment before she answered him.

Wipe Out, The end.
