𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟔𝟐: 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞
There was only silence left where the horrible scream had echoed.
Even the raging blizzard had been silenced by the lightning.
A pungent smoke rose into the sky.
【𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥: 𝐘𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐲, 𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥.】
“It should have been.”
Siwoo canceled the multi-layered mana shield.
Thanks to that, he was able to grab Cheon Soo-ae by the neck without suffering any damage from the lightning.
When he opened his clenched hand, black ashes scattered in the wind.
【Is it over? Let’s go back and eat some chicken!】
“Sorry, but there’s one thing left.”
“Master!! A-Are you okay?”
“I’m fine. Come slowly.”
Kang Yeo-hwa ran towards Siwoo, staggering.
Her eyes were moist with worry and anxiety.
“Are you hurt anywhere? No broken bones or cuts or bruises?”
She should worry about her own body.
What’s the point of worrying about the incompetent teacher?
Siwoo placed his hand on Yeo-hwa’s head.
Despite being ranked 7th in the Republic of Korea Hunter Ranking or being called the Ice Queen, Yeo-hwa still seemed like a child in Siwoo’s eyes.
“Hu. . .?”
Her face turned as red as an apple at her teacher’s sudden behavior.
“Th, that. . . uh. . .”
“I should have healed you first.”
“eH?”
A warm golden magic circle formed from the hand on Kang Yeo-hwa’s head, scattering brilliant rays of light.
It had been a long time since she had felt Siwoo’s healing skill.
Kang Yeo-hwa felt dozens of wounds all over her body, along with tremendous muscle pain and fatigue, disappear in an instant.
“ㅡㅡah.”
Only Siwoo could use such an ability.
She had been in this field for over 10 years and had seen countless hunters.
However, even the most powerful of them were nowhere near Siwoo’s level, not even half as strong.
Perhaps the executives of the <Agape Order> might come close.
“I can’t believe Master is really back.”
“Why? Because you got free treatment?”
Kang Yeo-hwa giggled and rested her forehead on Siwoo’s chest.
“. . .I missed you. So, so much. . .”
Her words were so pitiful and burdensome that
Siwoo put his arms around his disciple, who had been waiting for him for a long time.
“You must have had a hard time too.”
“. . .yes.”
A sniffling sound could be heard.
Was this really Kang Yeo-hwa, who was called the Ice Queen on Hunter Tube?
They said she was a cold-blooded government dog who annihilated hundreds of monsters with a single skill and always had a cold expression on her face.
However, in my eyes,
‘She’s still like a high school girl. . .’
【𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐠𝐨 𝐨𝐮𝐭. 𝐈’𝐦 𝐡𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐲.】
Siwoo felt like cursing at Pre’s cold-hearted words, but he held back, knowing that it wasn’t wrong.
“Yeo-hwa. Let’s get out of here first.”
“Ah, yes. Let’s do that.”
“Then, I’m sorry, but can you carry that girl? I’ll carry that old man.”
“Uh. . . I don’t mind, but will you spare their life?”
Kang Yeo-hwa knew Siwoo’s temper too well.
She knew that he was not the kind of person who would show favor to his enemies.
“I can spare their life. If they give me information.”
Siwoo raised one corner of his lips as if asking if she was asking an obvious question.

The first thing they encountered when they stepped outside the gate were two corpses and two people standing next to them.
An old man in a robe and a young man with a ferocious expression like a wolf.
Kang Yeo-hwa instinctively went into a defensive stance.
Even though her mana was a bit low, an S-Rank would not lose to just anyone.
Not unless they were guys like the Ghost Corps, who specialized in assassination and considered killing people to be an excellent ability.
Of course, if she had been in full condition, she wouldn’t have been pushed back unilaterally.
“Who are you?”
Kang Yeo-hwa released her murderous aura.
The pressure of an S-Rank filled the ridge, causing even the solid trees and rocks to tremble precariously.
‘Is this a hunter who’s been wandering around inside the gate for a few days?’
The old man and the young man couldn’t even breathe properly in her presence.
It was a fearsome aura that made it seem like their necks would be twisted and snapped at any moment.
But then,
Thwack.
“Ouch!”
A cute sound escaped Kang Yeo-hwa’s mouth as she was flicked on the forehead.
“Are you a bulldog? You try to jump on people as soon as you see them.”
“B-But I don’t know who they are. . .”
“Tsk. You don’t even have any mana, so what are you trying to fight for? And fighting is forbidden for now.”
Kang Yeo-hwa pursed her lips.
The queen who had been exuding murderous aura just 2 seconds ago was now gone, leaving only a cute disciple.
“Borrowing your teacher’s presence to show off your strength.”
Kang Yeo-hwa smiled and nodded. It was a smile that no one in the world had ever seen before.
Volk and Red Ear looked at her and Siwoo alternately, shaking their heads as if they couldn’t understand.
“Let me introduce you. This is Yeo-hwa, one of my disciples. And this is. . . Red Ear and Volk.”
At Siwoo’s introduction, the three of them bowed awkwardly.
“I came as soon as I received the contact, but it seems I’m a little late. Volk is a slow walker, so I apologize on his behalf.”
“What? How dare this old man blame meㅡ!”
“Hey, be quiet.”
Volk immediately shut his mouth at Siwoo’s scolding.
Volk was becoming more and more afraid to look Siwoo in the eye.
He had thought he was a great person, but who would have known that his younger brother would be Min Si-joon and his disciple would be Kang Yeo-hwa?
Rather, it was closer to a mystery that such a great person was not well known.
“It’s nothing else. Take these two guys and find out what you can find out.”
“Who are they?”
All I know is that their organization is called Ghost Corps.”
“It’s a famous Chinese assassination organization.”
Red Ear observed the fainted men with gleaming eyes.
“I’ve seen this old man before.”
“Oh?”
