The Abandoned Hunter Chapter 69
Advertisement
"We don't know who exactly were chosen but the portals were put at specific places, and if only the hunter was strong enough as that if B rank, he would be sucked into the Portal..."
"Oh..."
"They all have been gathered near the entrance of a dungeon which is believed to be..."
"Believed to be?"
"Haha, it's believed that it is an S-Rank dungeon which has 2 BOSSES!"
"..."
"What the heck!!!? Are you serious!!!?"
"Yup... dead serious!"
"Oh my God, this is dangerous! But why the fuck are they calling only B rank hunters?"
"No idea about it. I am just doing what I was asked to do."
Dun Young was pretty much tensed since the matter was not as simple as it would seem. Appearance of any normal S-Rank Dungeon or gate is itself a huge threat but appearance of an abnormal S-Rank gate is beyond comparable.
Also at least one S-Eank hunter lee party is needed to clear this and that too isn't sure that they can clear it by 100%!
But Res was speaking too calmly as if it was not a big issue and that was precisely making Yoing even more furious. But he had to control himself despite that.
He immediately said, "I'll go then..."
Res shook his head and denied it.
"What man? I can't even go nor can I do anything! Are the association fucking with me?"
Res sighed and said, "Listen, we have been prohibited to enter the place. In fact we absolutely can't enter the place."
"Huh? What do you mean by can't!?"
Res explained, "There seems to be a barrier which isn't allowing any hunter beyond rank A and below rank B to enter it..."
"Holy shit... you mean to say..."
Res nodded his head as if it was a great issue. Dun was completely nervous now and he was sweating a lot due to that.
He couldn't have imagined in his wildest dreams for such a dungeon to appear.
"Damn, out of all things, a dungeon with brains has appeared."
There are many dungeons that exist in the world which appeared out of nowehere. Humans have them different names and ranks to specify their difficulties and their characteristics.
Among them was one of the most dangerous dungeons which they called as - THE ID.

ID - Intelligent Dungeon also called as the Dungeon with Brains was capable of changing its own traps and soaring the monsters endlessly.
Many hunters were slaughtered in such a dungeon which had appeared once long ago. Such dungeons always set up a parameter and allow only a selected few of Hunters.
The last time such a dungeon had appeared, it set the parameter as [NUMBER]. Only 30 hunters were allowed to enter the dungeon. And this time the parameter was [RANK].
Res sighed and said, "Hmm, not only the parameter this time is [RANK] but also there is a time limit to complete the raid."
"..."
"Bro, please stop giving me heart attacks..."
Res stared at him and wondered if he shouldn't have told that.
"Is this what they call mission impossible?"
Res shook his head and replied, "I am not sure..."
And just as he had finished saying he smirked for unknown reason and said, "Interesting..."
"Huh? What's wrong with you man? Here I am tensed because it is a critical situation and you are laughing?"
He smiled again and said, "What else can I do when our little champ was just transported in front of the dungeon's entrance..."
"..."
"Little champ? What does that—"
"Haha, did you realise?", he laughed out loudly as if he was pleased.
"Don't tell me, you are talking about Jay Down?"
"Yup! Precisely!"
"OH MY GOD!!! STOP THIS SHIT!!!"
AT THE SAME TIME...
'BAM'
"Ouch, that hurt..."
"Looks like another guy has come."
"But he looks too young!"
Jay opened his eyes while he was cussing at the Portal that just transported him without any warning. He looked around the people who were standing in front of him.
They looked to be in their 30s while a very few of them were around 21-25.
But Jay and another person was the youngest there.
There was a lot of commotion and everything was in chaos.
"Why have you bright here? I was finally going home after my work!! Dammit!!", many were just complaining and shouting.
Nothing was being understood by anyone. It was too noisy and amidst them Jay found an interesting person.
He looked at him carefully and while he was doing that, the guy immediately stared back at him.

Jay waved his hand as if he was greeting him and saying 'Hi' but the short guy wearing circular framed glasses turned back and was looking for whom Jay was calling to.
Jay used some signs to convey that it was no one else other than him to whom he was calling to and after understanding that the boy too waved his hand.
Jay immediately showed him a sign to come towards him so that they could go to a silent place and relax. But the unusual guy again turned back to find the person who was being called by Jay.
'Is he an idiot or what?' is what he thought in his mind. It took a while for the guy to understand but he definitely came towards Jay.
Both of them were conversing with sign languages until they had gone to a quiet place that was a bit back where less noise was reaching from their scream.
Finally they talked, "Hi, I'm Jay Down, you can call me Jay! I'm 18. Nice to meet you."
The young man immediately said, "I'm Yuuma, Tenma Yuuma, 19 years old. Nice to meet you too."
"..."
"Eh What!!? You are elder than me!!!?"
Yuuma nodded his head as if he was agreeing to what he was telling.
"Ahem, then Yuuma senpai~", Jay tried to call him politely but it turned out to be awkward and he felt u comfortable.
"Just call me Yuu, Jay."
"Okay Yuu Senpai!", he didn't even show a bit of hesitation and immediately adapted in calling the new name.
Jay wasn't aware that he was being too nice and talkative with him and for some reason he who was unapproachable just earlier in the class was the first one to approach Yuu.
Both of them started talking a bit and then discussed about science. Yuu was extremely excited in talking about science since he was a nerd. He started preaching novels about science which made Jay bored but he was a little interested too.
But the thoughts that Yuu expressed were amazing. It was making Jay himself think about many other things and for some reason he kept on wondering something - 'Tenma Yuuma, where have I heard this name?'.
For some reason he felt a familiarity with him. Then soon they had changed from science to history and started to talk about many things. Amidst the chaos, these both were the only ones who were calm.
After discussing about history they were going to talk about computers when suddenly a loud voice was heard as if it was announcing something.
2 men in black suit appeared out of nowhere and started announcing. Probably they were also bright here through the portals.
"Listen everyone, we have called you all for this raid that was assigned by the association!"
Just by listening this the intensity of chaos increased. Both the men paused for a while and then suddenly another voice was heard which made everyone shut their mouth.
"SILENCE!"
It was as if he had dominated them and conquered their fear. Regardless of that it didn't have any effect on Jay and Yuu because they were a bit far away or maybe because they were afraid.
They got up from their positions and moved towards the crowd. The men started to describe the situation they were in to which everyone started supporting.
"It's an emergency so we have transported you all here! Everyone present here is at least an A or B rank!"
Everyone glanced at each other since it was announced that all were on par with each other.
"So we are going to raid this minute dungeon which is just any other B-Rank dungeon!", he said it very casually as if it was nothing as he was lying in reality.
He was basically giving false information and deceiving them, but that tactics didn't work on Jay since he had the system which was clearly telling that the dungeon was S-Rank.
Regardless all of them got excited and immediately departed at the same time as soon as the dungeon gate was opened. Even Yuuma followed them.
Jay tried to stop him.
"Yuu!!! Don't go! It isn't safe because it is an..."
Yuuma turned back for a second and replied, "Because it is an S-Rank dungeon? I know, don't worry..."
The moment he left and entered the gate Jay successfully recalled who Tenma Yuuma was.
"Haha, I don't know what you are planning, but good luck, Yuu..."

8 346Unto Dark
A man of cripplingly ill mind, bridled with the spirits and regrets of the past. Wade Pierce trudges through each day of his monochrome existence, only as penance for his sins. Such a man is abruptly decamped of this world courtesy of unapologetic forces, left stranded in a realm filled with unknowns. Armed only with his potent yet fragile intellect, Wade advances into this new abyss, as he attempts to rewrite the wrongs he has committed. Plagued by vile beasts, self-righteous Gods, and even his own seething darkness, the cracks in his mind begin to spread and a dangerous, newfound power bubbles beneath the surface. As the world grows darker day by day, this unfortunate journey begins ------------ I suppose rectitude dictates that I should state any themes worthy of noting here. First of all, this story is not a sunshiny one in the slightest. Since it is listed under the psychological and mature tag and not the comedy tag, that shouldn't be a surprise. Next, morbidity is a factor and general apathy towards human life. All of these are common themes amongst other writers, so nothing new there. The story also contains consensual, and non-consensual sexual activity, although I have tried to be as tasteful as is possible for someone like myself. Finally, the pace is drawn-out, and the language is magniloquent at times. Not to mention, the chapters are quite lengthy. Don't expect to read this halfheartedly... Other than that, enjoy the story... There's nothing more important than that...

8 163The Hunt
Cecily's blade swung, hitting its mark as always. The man's arm fell to the cold grass of the prison with a familiar thud. He let out a blood curdling scream. A warning to the rest. Stay away, the Hunter is here. That's the name they'd given her, the Hunter. After she cut off the man who tried to rape hers masculinity, they stayed away. She'd made it clear anyone who tried to touch her would be hunted and slaughtered. Cecily kneeled down, pushing the man's face into the dirt so she could use his back as a seat while she trifled through his belongings. "You're hurting my ears," she told him, no remorse in her voice. "Quiet down before I really do kill you."The man but his lip, well aware that she wasn't lying. Sobs shook him, making for an uncomfortable seat. She, however, didn't particularly feel the beed to kill him. It happened, not often, but it did. "Oh, hush up," she hissed, taking out a bag of rations with her metal hand, "it doesn't hurt that bad."With her good, human hand, she dropped the plastic bag of food into her own bag. She pushed up, off the man back. As she was about to walk away, bag slung over her shoulder, brushing against her autumn colored braid, she turned back to him. "Consider yourself lucky," she said, no hatred in her voice, there never was. "Consider yourself lucky that you didn't do anything stupid. And even luckier if one of the scum bagged criminals in here feel a little light in their hearts and help you. Consider yourself luckier if you die there."With that, her old black and white Nike sneakers carried her off into the brush of the huge prison.
