I Want To Live A Normal Life, But I’m An SSS-Class Hunter

▶ Episode 34. Announcement (2) 

Tyrone, who was worried about the country and suffering from the loss of hair, suddenly felt ominous.

In fact, David hated hunters very much.

‘It’s a unique characteristic of the Minister of National Defense.’

It was because the Ministry of National Defense, which uses human weapons, has been shrinking ever since the Hunters appeared 18 years ago.

The phenomenon accelerated when Cherokee, an SSS-Class hunter, appeared, and now everyone was looking at the Ministry of National Defense as a subordinate of the Hunter Department.

The Minister of National Defense, David, was the representative of those who hated it very much.

Furthermore, David had a personal grudge against Hunter.

‘That punk Cherokee….’

The rare psycho killer Hunter came to mind.

“(…Cherokee should be sanctioned.)”

David spat out these words. 

“(It was a great opportunity to finally deal with the boss of Washington, D.C.! How can you throw it away in such a vain way?)”

“(…There will be another opportunity next time.”)”

The one who spoke quietly was the Minister of Hunter, Matthew.

David raised his voice.

“(Do you mean that? A golden opportunity like that won’t come again!)”

“(…According to CIA information, Infinity Hunter loves amusement parks. Recently, she had a lot of fun with her friends at Neverland, an amusement park in Korea. Why don’t you put up a mouse land near your house, or give it a spot altogether?).” 

“(Can you get rid of two bosses of level 9 explosion dungeons just because you do such a thing?! You know the level of Hunter’s Department!)”

“(Not other departments, can the Ministry of Defense bet on the level of our Hunter Department?)”

“(What the hell does that mean?)”

“(Do you ask because you don’t know?”)”

Tyrone thought as he watched the two ministers glaring at each other and pointing at each other at the National Security Conference. 

‘…My hair.’

However, he doesn’t intend to give up for re-election. 

“(Stop it.)”

The two ministers were silent at the president’s words.

In particular, David did.

‘Should I change the Minister of National Defense to someone else?’ 

Tyrone was an ordinary person without even a speck of dust, but he was quick to notice and had a good touch.

Especially when he saw people well.

When he feels the cold atmosphere, that person always causes an accident.

‘But I will be well funded with David when I try to win re-election….’ 

That was the problem.

‘I’ll have to think about it.’

Tyrone not only washed his face dry but also took a deep breath.

Even when dealing with Cherokee, this would calm him down.

“(David.)”

“(Yes.)”

“(There is no sanction against Cherokee. He didn’t commit a crime.)”

He blew a good opportunity, but it couldn’t be called a crime. 

Of course, there were also people who pointed fingers at Infinity Hunter’s appearance and said how can an adult proposed to a young girl.

But by law, it was clear that Infinity Hunter was an adult.

And there were some who saw the marriage proposal as Cherokee strategy to win over the Infinity Hunters.

Of course, that’s never the case.

“(Also, Cherokee was freed of all obligations in all other areas except a few..)”

“(But…!)” 

“(David, the most important thing is the national interest. Hunters, especially Cherokee, are our core force. We need to treat them as they deserve.)”

In the early days of the age of powers, the world was seriously agonizing over how to treat hunters.

Many people couldn’t stand the fact that the country was run by people who, on average, made up less than 0.05% of the population.

‘Especially those who had power before.’

Still, most countries tried to treat Hunters to some extent, but Russia was different.

They threatened not only the hunters in their own country, but also the hunters in neighboring countries. 

They kidnapped their families and used them as hostages to swear allegiance to the rulers.

‘The results were disastrous….’

All Russian rulers were literally reduced to dust. 

Moscow, the capital city, was blown away without a trace as if nothing. 

It was Tallinn, an S-Class Hunter from Estonia, a neighboring country of Russia, who started the so-called ‘Moscow bombing incident’.

Tallinn stood up indignantly when his only child was kidnapped.

Russia used all kinds of weapons except nuclear weapons, but Tallinn appeared in Moscow intact even after being hit by them.

When the feared Russian rulers tried to use nuclear weapons, there was someone who stopped them.

Russia’s strongest SS-Class hunter Yekaterina Kutuzov.

She is the one whose code name and hunter name is “Tsarina,” which in Russian means “female emperor.” (t/n : I change codename Charina to Tsarina.) 

She rescued Tallinn’s children, slaughtered the rulers, and began ruling Russia herself, eager to revitalize the country.

‘But Tsarina soon realized the reality.’

No matter how well she fights, running a country is another thing entirely. 

Moreover, there were too few Hunters.

At that time, there were fewer than seven high-ranking hunters of B-class or higher, including Tsarina, in that vast Russian land.

The limits were too clear even if she tried to do something beyond dungeon raiding with hunters. 

– As of this time, I will step away from politics to focus on dungeon raids.

After Tsarina made that decision, she left behind reliable and competent people. 

However, no matter how hard she tried, there was no way that a country without capital would function properly. 

Russia has fallen into a weak country with a vast land area.

Tsarina felt guilty for the fact that her homeland had become like that, and eagerly attacked high-level dungeons around the world.

They got a lot of things because of her, which helped Russia get stronger bit by bit.

Now, 18 years later, Russia has stabilized somewhat.

‘Still, there are limitations, and it seems that many other problems have arisen recently.’ 

This time, a Korean A-Class Hunter was kidnapped by the Russian side along with his family. 

So the atmosphere in Russia has been unusual recently.

‘Tsarina always take care of the kids…’

Anyway, the ‘Moscow bombing’ 18 years ago gave a great lesson to the general public around the world.

That Hunters, especially high-ranking Hunters, should be treated well.

– My country treats Hunter well, and Hunter, let’s do the Dungeon raid!!

Of course, not all countries are like that.

It was because people were never the ones who knew and acted well.

Thus, while trying to enslave hunters like in Russia, in some countries, the lives of the rulers became ★ in the sky.

Another country was no longer a country after hunters reigned like kings. 

It has been 18 years since the Age of Powers opened.

Now, that rarely happened.

But it was literally ‘almost’, it wasn’t that it didn’t happen at all.

‘A lot of blood was shed every time…’

Of course, the country was shaken up socially and economically. 

So, when a high-ranking Hunter came out, the leaders of each country did their best to treat them, but they were secretly anxious.

They were afraid that they would use their power to eat the country in a cruel way. 

‘It was the same in America as well.’

When an SSS-class Hunter came out of a native American tribe that had been persecuted by white people in the past, everyone became very nervous.

Furthermore, the United States had a history of being brutally wielded by Mexico’s SSS-class ‘Cirocco’. 

But luckily, the new SSS-Class Hunter Cherokee has appeared. 

– I’m an American, so I’ll be a hero for the United States of America!

He shouted loudly.

With a flower in his mouth.

He kept his word.

As a person with pride in his bloodline, he focused on improving the rights and interests of Native Americans, including the Cherokee tribe.

But at the same time, he really did act like an American hero, not just in words.

‘There’s absolutely no reason to treat such a person badly.’

In the United States, no matter which party was in power, the Cherokee were treated very highly at the government level. 

To be more precise, he was treated with utmost sincerity. 

It was only natural since he was a symbol that brought back the pride that America is the best, had amazing skills, and (albeit accidental) righteous disposition. 

However, there were also those who didn’t like the treatment Cherokee was receiving.

Those who hated Hunter were like that.

David was a prime example of that.

“(Of course, the kidnapping was a good opportunity to deal with the boss in Washington, D.C. I feel sorry for that, too. However, the opportunity has not completely disappeared.)”

“(Is there something else?)”

Minister Hunter, Matthew asked.

“(Yes. In exchange for dealing with the two bosses in Washington, D.C, I have something to offer the Infinity Hunters. To be precise, it’s not the Infinity Hunters, but the Archer.)”

Most of them looked like they could guess what it was.

“(Infinity Hunter’s biological father is Archer. Once she know what our government can offer, there is a good chance that Infinity Hunter will move for her father. We will try our best.)” 

In fact, Tyrone wanted to do everything he could, including economic sanctions and threats against South Korea, just as the United States had done before the Dungeon era. 

But now times have changed.

‘If that happens, Korean hunters won’t stay still.’

It was especially a big deal if the Infinity Hunters went on a rampage.

He couldn’t cross the line.

That would lead to a national catastrophe.

“(What are you trying to do?)”

Suddenly, he heard Cherokee’s voice behind his back.

Tyrone glanced back.

Cherokee stood there, munching on nachos.

“(What is it?)”
