Chapter 3 - Who

Outside, there have been many journalists from different worlds. Want to be the first to relay the news of the level 6 dungeon raid solo. Not only journalists, but many world-class hunters also came to witness whether this was a success or a failure. No one knew about what was going on inside, everyone hoped to see the results soon.

However, all worries disappeared when the color of the dungeon changed to blue, which signified that the dungeon had been successfully completed. Behind the dungeon door, came out someone who was awaited. As soon as Oliver was seen, a flash of camera from various directions lit up flooding his face, followed by Hyun's exit. Instantly there was silence for a few seconds. Followed by various questions posed to Oliver.

Oliver stared at the crowd, then looked at Hyun. "Tomorrow afternoon come to the press conference at the hunter association building"

After saying that, Oliver tugged at Hyun's collar and simply disappeared, leaving everyone there to only see each other. No one knew where hunter Oliver went. Oliver's destination was the hospital where Hyun's sister was being treated. In an instant, the two arrived at the door of Sera's room. As soon as he opened the door, he saw his sister Hyun who was asleep.

Hyun ran towards her, the fear of losing his family again made him very afraid.

"Wow. It turns out that the 'key' is the 'greedy' brother, how great a destiny is"

Hyun, who was initially unaware of the existence of others, immediately looked at the source of the sound.

"You.."

Standing in front of Hyun, a woman who was sitting was watching the two.

"Sylv.." Oliver said the name in a quiet tone.

"Ah, it turns out that the 'guards' are also here" The so-called 'guardian' is just silent.

Meanwhile, Hyun looks confused by the call given to him and his sister. Sylv smiled seeing Hyun's confused expression.

"Aren't you here to heal your sister?"

Hyun remembered why he was here.

"But.."

Hunter Sylv's words that stopped made Hyun stop, listening. "Are you sure you want to save your sister?" Instantly Hyun was carried away by emotions when he heard it.

Before Hyun's emotions exploded, hunter Sylv continued. "Between your sister sleeping forever without any burden and you won't be able to see her face wake up or your sister waking up but with the burden imposed by the dragon's elixir, what choice will you take, 'greedy'?"

Hyun didn't understand the question given to him at all. Seeing his confused face, hunter Sylv smiled and looked at Oliver.

"With this elixir, your sister will be able to wake up. But..." Hunter Oliver sighed before continuing, "... The burden on this elixir will be given to your sister"

....

"The burden... What is it like?"

"Dissatisfaction, envy, anger, despair, helplessness and all the emotions that this dragon has ever felt will be imposed on your sister. You can ask the person who has defeated him."

Hyun's limp turn of the head pointed at Oliver, as if asking for hope.

Oliver just closed his eyes, hinting that all the emotions that would be imposed on his sister, Sera would be extremely heavy. Hyun bowed limply, questioning what fate had befallen him. Of all that, the system that usually provides explanations or solutions, is now just silent.

...

"BUT!!"

The shout made Hyun gasp. So did Oliver. All eyes were on Hunter Sylv. "I can take the burden off your sister with one condition..."

Those words were something that Hyun really wanted to hear, even if he had to pay with his life, he would do anything to make his sister smile again. "W-What are the conditions? I'll give everything, even if it's my life!!"

"Hahaha, calm down, you don't need to be like that. Just let your sister stay with me and I will guarantee her safety. Of course, you can meet her whenever you want, how!?"

....

Hyun was pensive. he asked the system, if what hunter Sylv said was a truth. A system that seems to know a lot of things, is currently silent. Even the devour couldn't devour the curse. Hyun looked at Oliver. He just shook his head, not knowing. Only hunter Sylv knew.

"What... Sera can live normally again" a soft older brother's voice broke the silence.

Hunter Sylv looked at Hyun gently, smiling.

That gaze.

Oliver was aware of Hunter Sylv's gaze. It was the gaze of a longing person.

Hyun stood up and lowered his head. "Thank you..." His hoarse voice sounded trembling. "Thank you..." His voice was cut off, tears falling down his cheeks. Hunter Sylv stood up and told him to use his elixir immediately.

Since this is a process of forced awakening, Sylv suggests that Hyun step away a bit and leave the rest of the affairs to Oliver and herself. Oliver took out his elixir and began to drink it to Sera. Instantly the air in the room felt very heavy, just like when Hyun was in the dungeon before.

Once the entire elixir was terminated, a bright light began to envelop Sera's body. "Oliver! Use your shadow to cover me and Sera!"

Oliver immediately formed a shadow dimension that enveloped the two. Silence ensued. Shows Sylv and Sera in it.

"Hey 'key'! Your destiny will not be the same as before. Your brother still needs you in the future. Calm down, I'll lead you the way," Sylv said while putting his finger on Sera's chest.

The incident lasted only a few minutes before his shadow disappeared. There, Sera was seen who was already conscious and Sylv who hugged her.

"SERA!!"

Hyum immediately approached his sister and hugged her tightly, as if he didn't want Sera to leave. "Oppa... Does Sera make you worried? "Sera apologizes"

Sera hugged her crying brotherr.

…..

"So your name is Hyun, 'greedy'? and you, his sister, Sera?" Sylv's words made Hyun come to his senses and let go of his embrace, relieved to see his sister who had come to her senses.

"Isn't that a beautiful little girl... is Hunter Sylv?!"

"That's right! And who will stay with you later."

Sera, who looked confused, looked at Hyun. Hyun explained what happened to her and the conditions that Sylv gave him so that Sera could come back to her senses. Sera, who heard that, bowed her head..

"Then oppa.. Will you live alone? Sera doesn't want that!!" Hyun smiled.

"It's okay Sera, when you have become strong, oppa will pick you up!"

"NO! How could Sera let her brotherr face danger when Sera just sat there waiting!"

Hyun's gentle hand rubbed Sera's head. Hyun who didn't say anything, made Sera cry.

Sylv, who saw that, immediately chimed in.

"Who said Sera would just sit and wait?" Hearing that, Hyun turned his head and showed a confused and unhappy expression.

Sylv flicked her finger to Hyun's forehead. "Calm down! Who do you think is this in front of you, hm?"

That's right, Sylv is one of the three South Korean UR hunters. Although she had never entered the dungeon, but her power to protect the citizens from the dungeon break was unquestionable. "I won't put her in danger. Just train her to master her powers"

Hyun just remembered. From earlier they talked about the power that would be imposed on Sera, but never mentioned what power it actually was. Seeing Hyun's confused expression, Sylv said.

"Haven't you seen it when you're with him?" pointing to Oliver. Oliver nodded.

"That's right, the power of the mind and soul dragon is what your sister will get"

Sera, who looked still confused and a little worried, was calmed down by Sylv. "Your oppa is so cool!"

….

The meeting lasted for a few moments before Oliver said goodbye and left. Not to forget, Hyun thanked him and would repay his kindness someday. Oliver nodded. Before leaving, Sylv knocked something out.

"Don't you want to seduce this 'greedy'? Isn't he a good fit to enter that weird guild of yours?!" The person being talked about, looked at Hyun briefly.

"Not strong enough" and then left.

"Hahaha you maniac! Alright, since that 'guard' has left, I'll leave too."

"Oh yes! Enjoy your time together because I'll pick up Sera tomorrow morning" After saying that, Sylv left.

Beautiful afternoon sky. Sylv walked enjoying the twilight. "Hey Raph... Am I doing as you planned? I can't wait to see the end of this page." After saying that, Sylv disappeared. Leaving a gust of twilight wind.

 

That night, Hyun told about what he had experienced today. Sera listened enthusiastically, angry at her brother's part of the reckless entry into the level 6 dungeon. Hyun laughed and apologized. Mentioning the greatness of hunter Oliver, the world's no 1 hunter. The story amazed Sera. Sera also told about an incident at her school where a dungeon suddenly appeared.

Before the dungeon appears, Sylv comes and tells everyone to leave the school. At first the teachers couldn't do that, because it was still hours of study and there was no evidence to direct the appearance of the dungeon. Not long after, there was a shout from the end class. Making Sylv immediately run and tell the students to evacuate immediately. Because of the shouting and announcement, the whole class panicked. Plus, the occurrence of an earthquake that made it even more chaotic.

Sera, who was on the 2nd floor at the time, followed the instructions to immediately get off and evacuate. Everything went smoothly despite the panic among the students. But when in the middle of the evacuation, Sera suddenly felt dizzy. Her body was weak, and his gaze was turning. Shortly after exiting the school gate, Sera fainted. The occurrence of dungeons at school caused a stir. Fortunately, there were no casualties in the tragedy and only minor injuries from the earthquake. Hunter Sylv keeps everything safe by facing the monsters coming out of the portal.

After the monsters no longer appear and the hunters from the association arrive, the school is sealed for further investigation. Hunter Sylv is a solo hunter rank UR. Its power is estimated to be mana manipulation. By only carrying a sword as her weapon, there was nothing that could not be cut by her. She could also sense which streams were not going right, such as when the dungeon appeared. With this ability, hunter Sylv dedicates himself to protecting the citizens from the dungeon's sudden attack.

The reason for why hunter Sylv never entered the dungeon was also questioned. But the answers given seem less than satisfactory to some. "Isn't there already Oliver? I think he's enough to clear the dungeon, even if there's a nation-wide dungeon break, hahaha"

Of course, people have high hopes for Oliver, but some of them also question Hunter Sylv's UR rank. The story of the two of them continued until late at night, before the two fell asleep.

….

In the moonlight, someone sat on top of a building, watching the beautiful night atmosphere of the city. Smile.

Srakk

The sunlight penetrated the room where Sera was treated. Hyun, who was asleep, also woke up.

"Yoo!"

"Good morning, Sylv unnie!" Sera's voice adorned the morning.

Tak

Sylv's flick made Hyun immediately wake up from his sleep.

"Hunter Sylv..?"

"How was the night? Is it fun?" Sera smiled. Hyun who was still holding his forehead, smiled annoyedly.

Looking at her brother's swollen face, Sera laughed

"Jeng jeng, Look what you brought!" Sylv shows the plastic containing food in her hand.

A pair of breakfast lunches for both.

"Waahh! Thank you unnie!" Sera received both of her provisions and gave one to his brother, Hyun.

"Hahaha, aren't you guys hungry after all? Eat first"

After saying that, Sylv went to arrange Sera's move.

At night when the two told each other's stories and about Sera who will be with Sylv, there will be no more sad looks. The two have promised to fight their own way and will meet when they have become strong. Just when Sylv arrived, the two had finished their breakfast. Seeing the siblings who seem to have decided their future, makes Sylv remember the past.

"Yoyoyo It seems that someone has made up their minds," Sylv teased.

"Oh, Hyun. Do you have a smartphone?" Hyun took out his smartphone and showed it to Sylv.

"I expected it. Bring your hand!"

Sylv took out something that looked like a smartwatch and attached it to Hyun's wrist. "Yosh, this allows you to contact outsiders easily even in the dungeon"

"Is this the latest technology?"

"Hahaha, how is it possible. This is something I made myself. Of course, this is not for sale, I only made it for the higher-ups."

Hyun was amazed at the clock. "Isn't this something very expensive?"

"Maybe? Don't worry, this watch can only be used and seen by the wearer and I give this so that the control of Sera's power will run smoothly."

"Thank you very much hunter Sylv! Even though we are not who we are, you still help a lot. I will not forget your kindness. Even if it means endangering your life, I will repay you!"

Ctak

"What you're talking about is sudden. You are not strangers, because from this moment on, you are part of my family. You can also call me noona."

Hearing that, tears instantly fell from Hyun's cheeks. Hyun recalled that Hunter Sylv also lost her loved someone during the incident 10 years ago, just like himself and Sera.

Melihat Hyun dan Sera yang menangis, Sylv memeluk keduanya.

Seeing Hyun and Sera crying, Sylv hugged the two. "Don't show tears in front of the family, it will make other sadness. "Now call me sister!"

Hyun and Sera stared at each other. "Unnie?" "Noona?"

Sylv smiled. "Hahaha good! That's the face you have to give to your sister"

After this moment, Sylv helped the two to clean up before leaving. "Noona, do I need to bring some of Sera's stuff?"

"No need, shouldn't you be preparing to level up? Let only noona and Sera go." Sera smiled.

"All right, noona"

Soon everything was ready, Sylv and Sera said goodbye to Hyun. They give encouragement and motivation to Hyun. "Oppa can definitely get through everything, Sera believes in you, oppa!"

"Show me how my cool Hyun ya screws it all up!

Hearing that, made Hyun's spirit burn. He can't wait to become stronger to take care of his family. Although sometimes fate does not go according to what we expect.
