Apocalypse After

Pigeons vs Crow

DING!

Two figures slid backwards quickly. On one side, it appeared Alexander who was holding a black box in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. On the other hand, there was a figure of Yona holding a dagger with a watchful expression on her face.

Two pairs of wings, black and white appeared on each person's back. Feathers scattered, hovering in the room that became so silent.

After a while, Yona finally opened her mouth.

“Eyes from Blood Cross?” asked the woman while tilting her head.

“I have absolutely nothing to do with them,” reply Alexander flat.

“Then you were under another guild? From 4 others ... which one?” ask Yona.

“Not one of them.” Alexander looked right into Yona's eyes. “Do you believe?”

“Of course it's hard to believe.” Yona shook her head.

“...”

“If you have nothing to do with Blood Cross, why react so strongly when you hear the name Nine Gates? Isn't that weird?” yona asked with a playful smile on her face.

“It's not true. If you can find information in detail, the name of Nine Gates should be familiar. Moreover, after carrying out the attack on Shelter 13, killing many level 3 hunters and making a level 4 hunter lose half his life,” Alexander replied with a serious expression.

“You also know that?” Yona raised her eyebrows. “I didn't expect you to know such information. And yes ... I was the one who served in that mission.”

Looking at the proud-looking Yona, Alexander's expression became even worse. Thinking of a level 3 hunter capable of balanced combat with a level 4 hunter, his mood sank. It's getting much heavier than before.

Meanwhile, Yona also looked at Alexander. Seeing the serious and slightly sinister gaze behind the black mask, the woman instantly realized that the young man on the other side was intending to go all out.

“Is something wrong, Miss Yona?”

A worried voice sounded from outside the house. At the moment when everyone became tense and looked alert, Yona glanced towards Alexander. A moment later, he said in a relaxed tone, even sounding friendly.

“Same as no problem. You guys keep watch.”

“Good!” answer some women outside the house.

They were obviously very suspicious, but ended up saying nothing as it was just following Yona's orders.

Alexander and Yona looked at each other. When she saw the young man's cold gaze, Yona spread out her hands and asked softly.

“So .. should we fight?”

Alexander's eyes narrowed, looking at the relaxed-looking Yona made him quite certain.

“Do you think I will keep quiet just because the enemy is stronger?”

Images of flames burning through the forest and his family home appeared in Alexander's mind. Suppressing his helplessness and anger, the young man roared inwardly.

‘DO NOT JOKE WITH ME, K-PARAT!’

SWOOSH! A BANG!

A black and white figure shot out and collided violently. In the next instant, a powerful wave stirred the air, throwing down what was around them.

At the moment of fending off Alexander's loud slash, Yona's eyes were wide. An expression of disbelief and a feisty smile appeared on his face as he said.

“Hey, hey, hey! This is no worse than a level 3 hunter attack right? V .. you-“

A BANG! CRASHES!

Alexander slammed his sword hard, instantly sending Yona crashing a few meters away. The woman looked towards the dagger in her broken hand then towards the opponent's sword which seemed a bit strange. Feels ...

Like being enveloped in something but not being able to be seen directly with his eyes!

A ferocious grin appeared on Yona's face. The woman extended her left hand. Just then, a white exo-skeleton enveloped his left hand. A sharp blade appeared from the outer side of his arm.

“Although do not know why people like you can not be famous ..”

“I'd rather fight a monster like you, V!”

---

A few hours later, hundreds of meters from the scene.

“Why do you still choose to do business with that person, Miss Yona?”

One of Yona's subordinates asked while carrying a box containing many potions. They are clearly very confused. The picture of the fight between the two people was still imprinted within their heads. It felt so strange when the two were still trading, even making long-term transactions after nearly killing each other.

“At first I thought that the person was from a certain organization or guild. But what I was worried about didn't happen. It seemed that he was the kind of hunter who did not want to be bound and always lurked in the shadows.

Who would have thought there was a level 2 hunter who could fight a draw against me? Just thinking about it makes me feel amazing. Truly a type of monster hidden in the shadows and difficult to handle.”

Yona said casually, not at all stingy in praise. But his words made some of his subordinates surprised.

In the eyes of those women, Yona was a powerful figure capable of killing level 3 hunters easily and capable of contending with level 4 hunters. Despite not being able to inflict fatal injuries like Scarlet did, the ability to withstand level 4 was still incredible.

“I invited him to join Nine Gates, but he turned it down.”

Yona shook her head, feeling somewhat dissatisfied from being rejected twice by Alexander.

“Don't Nine Gates only accept women, Miss Yona?” asked one of the women with a doubtful expression.

“Ah! I completely forgot!” yona said while holding her forehead.

“Omong-by ..”

“What's up?” ask Yona.

“Um ... that ... your left neck?”

Hearing the woman's words, Yona held the left side of her neck. Sensing the scar and the sudden pain, the woman's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.

Just then, a smile appeared on the woman's face.

‘Interesting ... you are really so interesting.’

---

Meanwhile, somewhere else.

“You are truly amazing, Sir! Fight with a level 3 hunter like that ..”

In the dark alley, Aster said with an excited expression. He did not expect that his master was a man capable of contending with a hunter who could be considered equal to the higher-level shelters.

“Be quiet.”

Just then, a cold voice sounded. Daisy and Aster are stunned in their place. The two of them saw Alexander looking towards them with an ice-cold gaze. There seemed to be absolutely no excitement from being able to fight a level 3 hunter or obtain the path of purchasing ingredients and selling potions. Even .... the young man looked filled with hatred.

‘Battles balanced? Don't joke with me.’

Alexander complained in his heart. The young man knew what was happening, so was completely dissatisfied with his previous fight. He felt ... His strength was still far from enough!

Alexander knew that there were several factors why he could compete with Yona.

The first reason is a narrow room. Yona was obviously faster than him, but the narrow space restricted the woman's movements so that she could read the trajectory of her attack. If it was in the open and spacious, it was difficult to catch it.

Alexander and Yona fight at night. In such a dark place, the young man's vision and abilities were enhanced. Instead, Yona's abilities were limited. If it was during the day where Alexander was restricted, it was obviously impossible to compete with the woman.

Third, in terms of seriousness. In contrast to Alexander who from the start was instantly serious, Yona was just messing around because her opponent was only level 2. Although it was his fault for being careless, but it did affect the outcome of the fight. Yona received some injuries at the beginning so performance decreased slightly. If it is serious from the start, the result is definitely not like that.

So ...

Alexander was not at all satisfied when he saw people praising him for being able to compete with Yona!
