136. TEASING THE EARTH'S VALKYRIE
The deafening explosion everyone on the streets of Metropolis City had been bracing for never came. The raging hurricane winds ceased without warning. Clouds of asphalt dust plummeted straight to the ground, as though Earth's gravity had just been forcibly multiplied.In the center of the ruined intersection, a scene that utterly defied logic was unfolding.Serena, Chairman of the National Hunter Association, hung suspended in midair in a diving strike. Both hands maintained a white-knuckled grip on the shaft of her legendary lightning spear, which blazed with brilliant blue light. The tip of the weapon radiated enough heat to melt military-grade tank armor in seconds.Yet the tip of that apocalyptic weapon had come to a dead stop.Axel Edward stood in complete relaxation, one hand still tucked inside the pocket of his jeans. His right hand was raised toward the sky. He wielded no magical shield. He held no blade. He was using nothing more than his index finger and thumb to pinch the
135. TARGET TWENTY-THREE
Axel Edward's footsteps sounded incredibly relaxed as he strolled out of the blue energy vortex of the Class A Gate. He had already returned the cosmic black umbrella, the Aegis of the Storm, back into his system's inventory space. Behind Axel, Marcus and the remaining elite members of the Golden Lion Guild crawled through the dimensional boundary. Their faces were as pale as corpses.The moment the last person exited the portal, the giant blue vortex in the middle of the Metropolis intersection flickered wildly. A loud hum echoed before the portal finally exploded into shards of light and vanished without a trace from the air.The reporters, police officers, and civilians waiting outside the police line were left dumbfounded. Their mouths hung wide open.Rumi, who was being treated by paramedics, immediately stood up with her eyes wide in shock. The S-Class assassin girl checked the watch on her wrist."The Gate is already closed? But it has only been five minutes since they went in!
134. The Torn Umbrella Rebate
Axel Edward looked down at his right arm, slick with viscous monster drool. The shadow wolf that had attempted to bite him whimpered in terror, scrambling backward on its belly. Its razor-sharp fangs had pulverized to dust upon making contact with the physical flesh of the Source. The rest of the pack ground to a dead halt. The beasts possessed keen survival instincts, and every nerve screamed of the absolute aura of death radiating from the youth in the plain t-shirt.In the distance, Marcus and the surviving elites of the Golden Lion Guild sprinted desperately toward the exit Gate. They shoved and elbowed one another aside in a frantic struggle to save their own skins.Marcus spearheaded the retreat. The arrogant Guild Master went so far as to kick the knee of his own subordinate, tripping the man so he would serve as bait for the wolves closing behind."Out of my way, all of you! A Guild Master's life is worth infinitely more than common fodder like you!" Marcus screamed hysterical
133. An "Ordinary" Class-A Dungeon
The plaza before the colossal blue Gate in downtown Metropolis bustled with chaotic energy. Police tape formed a wide perimeter to hold back eager citizens and broadcasting journalists. In the center of the cordon, a strike team of Hunters dressed in lavish uniforms prepared for deployment. They were members of the Golden Lion Guild, one of the premier organizations holding an exclusive license to raid Class-A Dungeons.Axel Edward stood at the very rear of the formation. His appearance presented a sharp, jarring contrast to the elite Hunters around him. While the others wore lightweight alloy armor, enchanted robes, and brandished luminescent blades, Axel wore only a plain white t-shirt, blue jeans, and an oversized mountaineering backpack strapped to his shoulders.The Guild Master of the Golden Lions, an arrogant man named Marcus, marched over to Axel, his silver plate armor clinking with haughty vanity."So you're the new F-Rank Porter?" Marcus asked in a condescending sneer, sizi
132. The Strongest F-Rank in the Universe
"Don't bother trying any magic. Just punch it with your ordinary physical strength," the arrogant proctor said, folding his massive, muscular arms over his chest. Anton looked down at Axel with supreme condescension.Axel gave a slow nod. He stepped forward, positioning himself directly in front of the colossal apparatus reinforced with earth dragon hide. The casually dressed youth assumed no martial combat stance whatsoever. He merely stood relaxed, feet planted easily apart. His left hand remained buried in the pocket of his faded jeans.Axel studied the thick leather pad before him. Inside his mind, the Emperor of the Universe was running complex mathematical calculations."If I use one percent of my strength, this glass high-rise of the Hunter Association will instantly vaporize into dust. If I use zero point one percent, the concussive shockwave could level all of Metropolis through an artificial earthquake," Axel reasoned inwardly, letting out a long breath. "Being this overpowe
131. Hunter Association Registration
The CCTV footage from the Metropolis intersection was replayed for the tenth time. Inside the conference room at the National Hunter Association headquarters, dozens of suited executives and combat analysts sat slack-jawed, staring at the colossal monitor. Their mouths hung wide open. Cold sweat beaded along the forehead of the Association Chairman, seated at the head of the table.They watched the identical sequence over and over. An S-Rank Dungeon Boss, a gargantuan bear with hide as thick as steel plating, died as its head detonated into a pulverized ruin. The monster had not fallen to a military ballistic missile. It had not fallen to the heirloom blade of a legendary Hunter. The terrifying beast had perished simply because a youth in a plain white t-shirt flicked a rusted, secondhand motorcycle key."This has to be an edited video from some prankster, right?" one senior analyst asked, his voice trembling in disbelief. "It is impossible for a mortal human to wield such pure physic
