I Have Awakened, but Mosquitoes Are My Enemies

“I saw that too, but I couldn’t believe it. Could it be that big brother has really awakened?”

Then Kang Doo-seong asked with a surprised expression.

“Junyoung! So, what you said earlier wasn’t a dream, was it real?”

“Yes, I became an F-class hunter. It’s not a dream, it’s a true story.”

Junyoung handed Kang Duseong a temporary hunter license.

“It’s a temporary license.”

“The official hunter license comes out in a month, but the mission was urgent, so a temporary license was issued.”

“Oh my goodness? It’s real. oh my god! My son has become a real hunter!”

Lee Kyung-seon also confirmed and cheered for the hunter license held by Kang Doo-seong.

“Give it to me, Mom. wow! Really!”

“oh my god! Older brother, are you a hunter now?”

Jun-seok and Eun-ah sing hurrah.

Kang Doo-seong exclaims with a hearty smile.

“Junseok-ah, order the chicken right now! Let’s have a chicken and beer party with our family today!”

“Half fried, half seasoned?”

“Let’s go big! One fried, one seasoned.”

“Hi-Hi! Yes, of course.”

yes.

This should be the reaction.

‘This is normal.’

It was exactly the reaction Junyoung had imagined.

* * *

That time Children’s Grand Park Gate.

It has been confirmed that the gate here, which was a level 7 disaster, has evolved to a level 6 disaster.

“How is the situation, Manager Kwak Sang-woo?”

“All the monsters that popped out due to the runaway have been cleaned up. After that, I ordered to increase the number of regular defense troops to match the 6th grade gate.”

“Is there any damage to the outer barrier?”

“yes. You don’t have to worry about the barrier because it was made from the beginning so that even if a 5th grade monster came out, it would not be able to escape. There are a few very minor damages, but not enough to affect the protection. The repair work was ordered immediately.”

In front of Kwak Sang-woo, head of the Hunter management department, there were a few high-ranking officials from the Disaster and Safety Bureau, Oh Jin-tae, and the National Security Agency.

“I heard that the damage on the southern side of the gate is great.”

“There are a total of 10 victims. There are no injuries and all are dead.”

“Have you identified all the victims?”

“At the time, there were 3 hunters and 7 special forces members who were located on the south side of the gate. Unfortunately, it is impossible to recover the body.”

Then Jin-tae Oh asked curiously.

“Is there any reason why it is impossible to recover the body?

“That’s it. Team leader Yoo, what kind of monster did you say that was?”

Kwak Sang-woo looked at the gate management team leader Yoo Jong-soo standing behind him.

Then, Yoo Jong-soo quickly replied.

“All of them were eaten by two-star vampires.”

“Have you been eaten?”

“yes.”

Yoo Jong-soo briefly explained what kind of monster the two-star vampire is.

Oh Jin-tae frowned.

“So what happened to the monster? Are you sure you’ve taken care of it?”

“It has been finally confirmed that you have re-entered the gate.”

“Then can’t it come out again?”

“As long as the gates don’t go overboard, that won’t happen.”

You don’t know when the gate congestion will happen.

Periodically sending in hunters to wipe out the monsters inside the gate can reduce the frequency of runaways, but that doesn’t mean they don’t run out of control.

It is for this reason that an excessive amount of external barriers were placed around the gate.

In addition, constant defense forces such as special forces members and hunter standby teams are also essential.

“That two-star vampire! I just went in and removed it. You don’t have to worry anymore.”

A woman’s voice was heard then.

It is none other than Kwak Hye-na.

Kwak Sang-woo was pleased.

“oh! Hyena, are you serious?”

“Yes, Uncle. There won’t be another runaway for a while, but you never know. I went inside for a while to figure out how the inside of the gate evolved.”

“You entered the gate alone?”

“Of course, it’s impossible for me to go deep by myself, so I just looked around the entrance.”

Kwak Hye-na said calmly as if it was no big deal.

“Then what about the vampire?”

“That was a bit odd. Did you die with one hit?”

“Do you die with one hit? What do you mean?”

“Someone killed most of them, but when I found him, he collapsed without being able to resist properly.”

Yoo Jong-soo, who was next to him, said with a solemn expression.

“The sacrifices of the hunters and special forces were not in vain. They would not have been let down.”

“It takes at least one B-class hunter to make a 2-star vampire to that point. If you’re a C-class hunter, you should have at least 10 people.”

“The grade of the sacrificed hunters is one C-class and two D-class.”

Then, Kwak Hye-na made a puzzled expression.

“Then it is impossible. It’s hard for them to deal with 1-star vampires, not 2-star vampires. The firearms of the special forces are almost impervious to star monsters.”

“But there were no other Hunters there at the time.”

“Were there no survivors at all?”

“Unfortunately, it was wiped out. Oh, I did get a report that there was a Hunter who witnessed the situation. But he’s an F-class hunter.”

“A Class F Hunter?”

“I know Kwak Hye-na well. That mosquito net hunter I saw at the ward office earlier…”

“Ah, Kang Joon-young? Is he all right?”

“He is a very lucky man. Being able to escape in the midst of that is nothing short of a miracle.”

Then Kwak Sang-woo said with relief.

“I am very glad that he returned safely. I asked for your cooperation because of the mosquitoes, but honestly, I was worried.”

“That’s right. If I had known that it was a level 6 gate evolution, I would never have brought Junyoung Kang.”

It was Yoo Jong-soo who first asked Jun-yeong for cooperation.

“Still, Mr. Kang Joon-young was quite helpful. I also caught bloodsuckers that had dug into the heads of the special forces members and treated their wounds.”

“You mean with the ability to rub when bitten?”

“yes. It’s a really strange ability.”

At that time, Kwak Hye-na looked at Yoo Jong-soo with a startled expression.

“Wait. Didn’t madness appear in people who were bitten by those bugs?”

“you’re right. How do you know that without looking?”

“oh my god! That’s a scary bug called cerebral hemorrhage. If we don’t act quickly, the bug paralyzes our reason and turns us into a monster obsessed with appetite. Like zombies.”

In an instant, Yoo Jong-soo’s expression hardened.

“Come to think of it, I’ve heard of it. But aren’t those scary bugs that only appear at gates with a disaster rating of 3 or higher?”

He couldn’t have imagined that such a terrifying bug would appear at the gate of the Children’s Grand Park, even though he had reached a level 7 disaster, no, now a level 6 disaster.

“Team Leader Yoo is right, Hyena. Such terrible bugs cannot appear here. It must be another worm, not a cerebral hemorrhage.”

Kwak Sang-woo said conclusively.

Because he knows very well how scary cerebral hemorrhage is.

Brain bloodworm is a scary bug that can turn a city into a zombie den if not acted upon quickly.

If a person controlled by the brain blood clot bites another person, he too becomes a zombie.

Fortunately, such a thing has not happened in Korea yet, but there have already been reports of related cases in China and Japan, causing an uproar.

“that’s right. Probably not. I want to believe that I am not.”

Kwak Hye-na nodded.

“Still, it is incorrect information to say that only gates with a disaster rating of 3 or higher will appear. Not too long ago I killed them at the level 5 gate.”

“Still, this is the 6th level gate, can you come out?”

Kwak Sang-woo said no, but he couldn’t hide his uneasy expression.

Rather, it is easier to deal with star monsters popping out.

It was because he had to summon strong hunters somehow.

However, bugs such as brain blood clots are not only invisible to the eye, but they are special danger monsters that even advanced hunters can be bitten in an instant if they are not careful.

“Just in case, sooner or later I will form a team and enter the gate. Cerebral hemorrhage is a worm that comes out of the cerebral hemorrhage, so there is no answer unless you remove it.”

“Are you talking about the brain blood of a 5-star monster?”

“It’s not necessarily 5-star. There are also 2-star and 3-star brain blood vessels. But the risk of cerebral hemorrhage is the same.”

Kwak Hye-na continued with a nervous expression.

“Above all, the problem is that I am very tired because I am fighting against bloodsuckers. In particular, to treat the symptoms of being bitten by a cerebral hemorrhage, you must have an A-class healer.”

“I get it. If the bug is really bleeding from the brain, we need to remove the danger in advance, so I’ll report it to the higher up and ask for support.”

Kwak Sang-woo’s expression also hardened.

I hope not.

But what if it’s real?

The worst could happen not only in Gwangjin-gu, but in the whole of Seoul.

That’s because cerebral hemorrhage is a scary bug.

“But didn’t that mosquito net hunter say he caught them easily with his fingers, Team Leader Yu?”

“Yes, chief. It was amazing even when I saw it. Did you rub it with your finger once and the madness went away and you burst and killed the bugs like a joke?”

Then Kwak Hye-na’s eyes lit up.

“Anyway, I think Kang Jun-yeong’s help will definitely be needed this time, Uncle.”

“okay. I get it. Team leader Yoo, contact Kang Jun-young right away.”

Yoo Jong-soo nodded.

“All right. But I’m worried about coming. I’ve seen people die from 2-star vampires, so I don’t think I want to go anywhere near the gate for a while.”

“Call me first.”

“I did it now, but I didn’t get it. I guess my guess is correct.”

Then Kwak Sang-woo let out a long sigh.

“You can’t be so conclusive. If your smartphone is in your room, you might not notice the call while you are having a meal or talking with your family in the living room.”

“I know the manager is really positive about everything, but this probably isn’t it.”

“No. It’s an emergency situation for us, but Kang Jun-yeong might be having a chicken and beer party right now. Now that you’ve become an F-class hunter, shouldn’t your family congratulate you?”

“Please. I’ve seen people die, but would the chicken go in their mouths? I don’t think so. Giving up on the phone today…”

Geeying!

At that moment, the smartphone that Yoo Jong-soo was holding vibrated.

His eyes widened.

“uh? Are you Joonyoung Kang?”

“What did I say? Come on, take it.”

Kwak Sang-woo was pleased.

happy worries (1)

The fact that Junyoung became an F-class hunter made the whole family happy.

This is because the most promising job in the world after the arrival of the Gate era is the Hunter.

Moreover, since Jun-young, who was unemployed and whose future was uncertain, got such a promising job, the joy of the family was bound to double.

However, Lee Kyung-seon soon looked at Jun-yeong with a worried expression.

“But can you handle that? I heard that it is very dangerous and consumes a lot of stamina. It’s okay if you don’t make money, so I don’t want you to do such dangerous things.”

Since the awakening hunter became a promising job of the era, there was a vague wish that someone in the family would become a hunter, but it was natural to be worried soon after Jun-young became a hunter.

Kang Doo-seong nodded his head and then spoke with a serious expression.

“Listening to the news earlier, it seems that there were quite a few victims at the gate of the Children’s Grand Park today. It’s nice to be a hunter, but I don’t think there’s any need to take that kind of risk and earn money.”

His younger brother, Jun-seok, seems to have the same idea.

“I think so too. I think hyung’s becoming a hunter is like a dream, but going to the gate and making money is the opposite. It’s like a battlefield, and people say someone dies or gets hurt every day. I hope my brother doesn’t go near the dangerous gate and just earns money comfortably with his amazing ability to catch mosquitoes.”

The youngest Eun-ah also nodded her head up and down quickly and said.

“that’s right. that’s right. You can just go to a house or company that is suffering from mosquitoes and catch mosquitoes and earn money, just like regular quarantine companies do. I’m also against my older brother going to work at the gate.”

Junyoung put on a puzzled expression.

“I am, but I became a hunter, what kind of quarantine company is it? When are you going to make a lot of money that way?”

Then Kang Doo-seong shook his head.

“What’s the use if you lose your life to make a lot of money? Dad is making the money, so don’t be impatient with the money.”

“My mother thinks the same. If you really want to earn money, it’s better to find a way to make money comfortably and safely, even if it’s small, as Eun-ah said. Never come near the gate. Got it?”

Jun-young became a hunter, but rather than being happy, the family seems to be full of worries.

Still, Junyoung knows very well that it is all because his family is sincerely worried about him.

“You don’t have to worry too much. I heard that I could sell buffs to hunters outside the gate and make money, so I’m going to find out. In addition, you can make money by catching bugs that jump out of the gate.”

“Wouldn’t it be dangerous to go near the gate, though? I heard monsters sometimes come out when it runs out of control.”

“But I don’t plan on avoiding it in advance. Don’t worry, we’ll only go through the safe gates. ah. and.”

Junyoung raised his right arm and showed strength and smiled vigorously.

“After becoming an Awakener, my stamina has definitely improved. I don’t think I will have to listen to the sound of poor physical strength from now on.”

“Is that true?”

“oh my god! Mom, it feels more like a dream than you becoming a Hunter.”

Kang Doo-seong and Lee Kyung-seon were most delighted to hear that Jun-yeong’s physical strength was improving.

Same goes for my siblings.

“wow! Hyung then, can we go hiking together in the future? My dad also wanted to go hiking with my brother.”

Going mountain climbing with my family was something I never dreamed of because of my poor physical strength.

But now that would be nothing.

The thought made Junyoung’s heart race.

I feel like I want to catch dangerous bloodsuckers and raise my level even more because of my physical strength.

“Hyung, spread the mosquito net when I go to work tomorrow.”

“I get it.”

“Older brother me too!”

“okay. I’ll unfold it.”

“Hi-Hi! Now I don’t have to worry about getting bitten by mosquitoes.”

“Even with 2 stacks, 80 minutes is still the limit. You need to level up a bit more.”

“Hyung, where is 80 minutes? You don’t have to worry about mosquitoes even when you go to work. I can’t even sleep on the subway because I’m afraid I’ll get bitten by mosquitoes.”

Doo-seong Kang then shakes his head, scolding Jun-seok and Eun-ah.

“Junyoung must have limited mana, so is it okay if he just uses his skills like that? It should not be used unless absolutely necessary.”

It means that you have to manage mana, so don’t spread mana mosquito nets to your family.

Joonyoung smiled.

“If you rest for a while, that much mana will quickly recover, so it’s okay to spread it out to your family.”

“Is that so? Then I also reserve a mana mosquito net when I go to work.”

“Yes, the application is complete.”

Kang Doo-seong also wanted to benefit from the Mana Mosquito Net.

– Ding-dong!

“Chicken delivery is here!”

At that moment, the voice of the delivery man came from outside the front door.

“Hurray!”

“Chicken is here!”

While I’m eating chicken and drinking beer with my family, I hear a vibration somewhere.

“brother? Vibration sound in the room. I think you got a call?”

“Who is this hour?”

Junyoung entered the room and looked at his smartphone.
