Evolution Theory of the Hunter Chapter 171

J: Kyle finally adapted enough to the place to translate, so here is the chapter. Not edited, as always (when will I edit all these chapters….).

"You dare tell such a lie……!"

"This person is right."

The girl that was taking pictures with me stepped forward.

"What?"

"Can't you tell? This person is the Great Summoner."

"Huh……?"

The blonde man made a weird expression.

He didn't seem to know what to say. It would be fine to just apologize but it seems he's unable to do so because of his pride.

Well, I didn't really want to get an apology from him. He was just a normal person that didn't know anything and even I would be angry if my girlfriend was hugging a guy I didn't know after all.

I think I'm too understanding. Considering how most hunters' personality is absolute trash wouldn't I belong to the upper 1%?

"…… Isn't he a scammer? He might have gotten closer to you by pretending to be the Great Summoner."

"Huh? Pr, probably not?"

The girl looked at me while being flustered. Why was she being like that after recognizing me first?

The girl took out a picture and compared it to me.

"It's the same no matter how I look at it though……?"

"Look look."

The blonde guy snatched the phone and stared at me.

"Isn't he a bit short? He looks uglier than the photo too."

What?

"It does kind of seem like that…… I'm not sure. Asian people have similar faces after all."

I started getting pissed off.

What were these people doing with a person in front of them?

I even took pictures with them.

"Edward. Let's go."

I thought that a fight would break out if we talked more so I just turned back. I didn't have any thoughts on starting a fight the moment I stepped foot on America.

There was no need to get angry and exchange fists at such a level of an insult. All I have to do is endure.

I was going to go like that when the red haired guy blocked my path this time. I let out a sigh and checked his profile.

Name : Kevin Hussein Johns

Equipment : Refined Artisan's Underwear (3) , Dimensional Sword (6)

Skill : Powerful Strength (5)

These guys were stronger hunters than I thought. I turned my head to look at the blonde guy.

Name : Ethan Pobelter

Equipment : Strengthened Leather Gloves (6) , Refined Artisan's Underwear (3)

Skill : Shield Fighting (5)

He had peculiar skills. Shield Fighting huh. Looking in depth it was a battle technique that incorporated a shield. Seeing how he doesn't have a shield at the moment, it seems they're really just here on vacation.

"Shall we talk for a bit?"

The red haired guy, Kevin opened his mouth.

"I don't have anything to say though?"

"If you really are the Great Summoner you see. I want to see your skills."

He looked at me in an intimidating manner while cracking his knuckles.

It seems he's trying to start a fight with me thinking I'm a fake. No, he's hoping I'm a fake I guess.

They weren't able to distinguish my face even while having a photo. I'm wondering if I should just pluck their eyeballs out or something.

"What are you going to do if he turns out to be the real one?"

"Pft. Are you dumb. The Great Summoner is in Korea. There's no reason for him to be here so what are you talking about?"

"It is pretty logical."

But something that shouldn't have happened happened you see.

But this wasn't even our country and I was also just on a walk.

As a bum certified by my teammates I decided to endure just once more.

"Since it was a mistake on both sides, let's just pretend nothing happened here."

"So you're planning on running away since you're at a disadvantage?"

As if.

"You guys can't catch me if I try to run away."

"Then why don't you try running away."

A frypan sized fist flew towards me.

It was so slow that a fly would be able to wash its face and fly away. I endured a sigh from coming out and stepped back.

The sound of air ripping could be heard the moment he struck empty air.

I did word it like that but in any case it means that he missed.

Kevin's expression became weird. It was an expression that plainly showed his flustered inner thoughts.

"This monkey like bastard."

"Hey. That's racist……."

"Shut up!"
The guy swung his fist without rest. I was able to dodge all his attacks by purely moving my upper body.

"Ahh!"

In the end he tackled me by lowering his upper body. It seems he's thinking about swooping down on me since I was so good at dodging.

He rolled on the ground unsightly once I tripped him who was passing by.

Kevin shot up with a reddened face.

Ethan who was looking from behind opened his mouth.

"That bastard. He's pretty good huh? You're not on the slow side after all Kevin."

"Shut up. I tripped because I got caught on my own leg."

"You probably want to think like that."

Kevin's face crumpled up once I said so.

"Pft."

The sound of girls laughing could be heard from behind. He said she was his girlfriend but it seems it wasn't like that. If they really were dating, I don't think she would laugh like that when he ended up in such an unsightly situation. They were probably just acquainted.

"God damn it……."

Kevin's face burned red. Seeing how he became red up to his ears it seems he was incredibly ashamed.

He wanted to show off in front of his girl but it was a shame that his opponent was me.

He extended his hand towards the air and opened his mouth while looking at me with eyes full of bloodlust.

"You bastard. Prepare to die today."

A sword appeared from the void. It was the Dimensional Sword. It wasn't like the inventory or manual. That sword had the ability to hide in another space.

The atmosphere of the surroundings became weird once he took out a sword. This place was still a vacation spot. There were quite a few people around.

The people that gathered thinking that it was a simple argument started making a commotion.

I turned my head to look at Edward and his face was pretty crumpled up.

That guy's laughing.

"What's so fun?"

"No, that's not it. To think that they're risking their lives to fight someone stronger than them. Could it be that humans don't have the ability to determine the opponent's strength?"

"No, they probably do. It's just that their will to show off in front of a girl is making them unable to do so."

"This bastard! You really are asking for death!"

Kevin shouted out in rage. It was pretty intimidating when a guy close to 2 meters tall raised his sword.

But that was all there was to it.

Didn't I endure as much as I should have if it's this much?

Kevin's sword was caught in my hand.

To explain, the sword was too slow and I had the speed and strength to catch it. I just had to not touch the blade so it wasn't that difficult of a job.

"What…… What is this……."

This guy gave it his all to get the sword out of my hand. But my strength right now was comparable to an oil pressure press machine. It wasn't at a level where human strength could do something about.

"I'll take the sword gladly."

"What?"

I hit the hand that was holding the sword.

He spun at the same spot with the sound of his wrist breaking and collapsed after spinning once.

The scream came only after all that.

"Ahhh!"

"I suppose this isn't bad."

I inspected the sword here and there and used it on the Golden Ring.

A level 6 Giant White Tiger got summoned together with light.

It was not only Ethan whose mouth got wide open at the huge tiger whose shoulder alone reached 3 meters in height, but also Kevin who was holding his broken wrist.

"The…… The Great Summoner?"

"Do I look real now?"

I caressed the Giant White Tiger that had lowered its head as I smiled.

Kevin was staring at me with a blank expression as if having forgotten the pain in his hand. He probably didn't even think about the fact that his weapon just disappeared.

"Damn it……! To think that it was really the Great Summoner."

Ethan said. I pointed at him with my finger. It was pretty cute seeing a guy with such a huge figure twitching in fright.

"M, me?"

"Who else besides you?"

Ethan approached slowly with an expression that seemed like he chewed on dung. This guy didn't even have a weapon on him right now. I don't know how America's laws work but I have heard that they have a much wider self defense range.

I started talking to Ethan who was overflowing with cold sweat.

"I endured a lot right."

"Yes, yes. That's right."

"Then you should have done things moderately. Don't you think so?"

"The one that started a fight was that guy……."

Ethan indicated Kevin who was collapsed on the ground holding his wrist. Was he trying to put all the blame on that guy? It's not like I was an idiot.

"I believe that the one that first messed with me was you. The one behind you isn't your girlfriend right?"

"Th, that's right. I saw her for the first time today……."

"Then why did you say she was your girlfriend?"

"I barely managed to flirt with her when some strange guys…… No, people butted…… No, seemed to be having a conversation."

"So you tried to kill someone that didn't have any relationship to this situation."

"Tha, that's not me but that guy……."

"Enough of your excuses."

Slap.

I lightly slapped the guy's cheek.

No to the point of being painful but enough for him to feel bad.

"Urg?"

Ethan's face burned red.

I opened my mouth while smiling.

"Why? Are you angry?"

"N, no."

"You look angry though? It's fine for you to swing your sword at others but it's not fine to be hit on the cheek? Right?"

"That's not something I did……."

Slap.

This time a bit stronger.

"Urg……!"

"Tell me if you're angry."

"N, not at all."

Slap!

Ethan's head turned instantly. Flames ignited within his eyes.

Seeing how he has endured to this point, it seems he has quite some perseverance.

"I will pretend nothing happened if you endure one more time."

"If it's just that……."

Ethan clenched his teeth.

I kicked his stomach.

"Bleeeh!"

He collapsed while clutching his stomach as if he didn't expect it. I felt a bit better looking at him puking everything he ate.

"U, um……."

A girl was walking towards me while shivering. It was the girl that recognized me at first.

Her face was considerably pale at the moment.

"What is it?"

"Are you…… Planning on killing these people?"

I started thinking after hearing that. I broke Kevin's arm and used up his sword. Ethan was on the ground clenching his stomach and puking what he ate. I'm starting to think that they paid for the insults they gave me.

Swinging a sword can be considered a death sentence but they weren't my opponents in the first place after all.

I felt like there was no need to beat them up to the point of near death just because of these petty things.

"I don't think there's a need to go that far."

She let out a sigh of relief as I shook my head.

"Thank you. For stopping at this extent……."

"Then I will take my leave."

"Excuse me…… I want to buy lunch as an apology."

She opened her mouth with twinkling eyes.

I felt like this girl was incredible to be like this after what just happened.

I lightly refused while shaking my head. I had no intention of getting mixed up any further with these people. I was about to leave after retrieving the Giant White Tiger when I sighted dozens of men hurriedly rushing this way.

Looking at how chaotic their atmosphere was they were probably aiming for me.

I inspected them all wondering what the hell it was and it turned out that they were all at least level 4 hunters.

The moment they arrived in front of me, the one in the very front opened his mouth.

It was a guy called Brandon.

"We are the Britania guild. Why did you attack my subordinates?"

"It's the opposite though."

"What did you say……?"

Brandon walked towards Kevin who had collapsed on the ground. Bradon who was talking about something approached Ethan with a pale face.

"Is it true?"

Nod.

Not knowing what he heard, he let out a sigh and looked around. There were currently several hundreds of people gathered here. It wasn't possible to do something even if he wanted to.

He approached as if it couldn't be helped and opened his mouth.

"You could have said that you were the Great Summoner ahead of time."
