Dungeon Hunter (던전사냥꾼)

Chapter 71: Explosion

A familiar demon was collapsed against a wall. His whole body was covered with blood. His white face was even paler.

If it wasn't for the rising of his chest, she would have thought he was dead.

Yoo Eun-hye caught her breath. Her mind was blank. Her hands shook as she formed fists. And she moved quickly.

'Please.'

The Awakened. Among them, she was one of the best. Her hearing went beyond the limits of a human so she could hear the sound of a beating heart from far away. But right now, she felt like an ordinary person. She couldn't hear or feel anything.

Yoo Eun-hye brought her ear to the man's chest.

Duguen!

Finally, she heard the sound of a heart beating.

Ahh!

Yoo Eun-hye shed tears of relief. She didn't know why the tears were emerging. There was just a vague feeling.

At the same time, Yoo Eun-hye was quickly able to recover her control.

She looked around.

There were traces of a disturbance. Dead demons.

'An assault. He was taken by surprise.'

She nodded. It was clear that the man had been attacked and fought back. Yes. He wasn't an easy opponent. All of his enemies were eventually slain. But the man himself was wounded and collapsed.

'It isn't over. It happened at least twice...'

Her mind was jolted awake.

The traces in the surroundings didn't lie.

It was obvious that he was assaulted several times but defeated them all.

If that was the case.

'There might be another attack.'

Yoo Eun-hye immediately lifted the man. It was like he was dead. The man was exhausted and Yoo Eun-hye was unable to deal with any demons.

However, the outside was filled with creatures. She didn't know if it was possible when alone, but they wouldn't be able to escape notice with two people.

'Hide in a safe place.'

That seemed to be the only way.

Yoo Eun-hye started walking. She hadn't experienced any obstacles when coming here. She was able to remember a place that seemed the most secure.

'The clock tower.'

The creatures couldn't easily approach the clock tower.

It was a gamble. The clock tower had to be dangerous for the creatures to avoid it.

Yoo Eun-hye used all her strength to escape the underground area with the man.

Yoo Eun-hye moved quickly.

She had memorized a map of Greenwich Observatory. Although the interior was renovated, the framework hadn't changed that much.

This was the fastest and safest road.

'I have to treat him.'

The man's body was like a fireball. Once his stopped heart started to beat again, it burned like a flame. He was emanating such heat that Yoo Eun-hye's back started to warm.

It would be unlucky if there was a creature that detected heat. There seemed to be no other way.

Yoo Eun-hye looked around as much as possible. She used all her senses to try and determine the position of creatures in the area. Thanks to that, there was a small time delay.
