A group of dark elves encountered while exploring a dungeon to explore the Holy Land.
Jinseok and Goldie look on with relaxed expressions.
"Dark elf?"
"Duet."
Dark Elves are a race of beautiful humans with donkey ears, like regular elves.
They are said to have been so absorbed in black magic that they possessed a murderous nature along with overwhelming black magic.
Of course, the dark elf guys in the dungeon also looked pretty vicious.
They appear as emotionless as dolls, and immediately take out their swords and bows to intercept Jinseok and his group and begin aiming at them.
"...."
It was right after that.
Murah shouts and steps forward to escort Jinseok.
"Brother Jinseok, step back!"
"why?"
"There seem to be over ten dark elves. I'll defend this place no matter what, so please be safe, brother!"
In response to Murah's urgent request, Jinseok simply stares ahead leisurely and speaks.
"I know, Murat, but there are exactly fourteen."
"yes...?"
"There are already four Dark Elf archers waiting to intercept behind us. They're probably aiming for the back of our heads and sniping as soon as the commander in the front gives the signal."
Murah is scrambling to defend Jinseok.
"Ugh, shit... Where should I start blocking it?!"
Meanwhile, the Dark Elf unit in front had already come to Jinseok's front, 5 meters in front of his nose, and was keeping him in check.
"...."
The elves, all with lifeless blue skin and eyes, were armed with unique weapons such as swords, bows, and staffs, and were aiming them at Jinseok's neck.
As Goldie, the cute child, prepares for battle by lowering the tail of the dark elf's attack vehicle.
"Duet!"
Meanwhile, Jinseok looks at the dark elves with a serious look in his eyes and then lets go.
"Mura."
"Ugh... your brother!"
"This is the first time I've told you this, but... my hunter ability is actually Monster Breeder. I have a skill that makes it easy to become friendly with monsters."
Jinseok naturally opens his and Goldie's information window with a serious expression.
[Jinseok Choi, Korean male, 23 years old, Overall level A+ Hunter, Special skill: Monster Breeder (Intermediate), Taming LV3, Parenting LV3, Monster Buff Card Deck LV4, Linked with his child Goldie]
[Monster Buff Card Deck Current Deck Layout (5/5): Virus Chimera (Unique) / Basilisk (Unique) / Kraken (Epic) / Lobster (Epic) / Nepenthes (Rare)]
[Accumulated Karma Coins: 100,709]
Then, in the information window, his profile, which showed that he had become an A+ level hunter, stood out.
It was a very busy dungeon battle situation.
however.
Jinseok continues his strange explanation.
"I'm talking about Monster Breeders. Before the ability to become intimate with monsters, I was curious about the scope of those monsters. "Monster" is a term humans use to refer to monsters and beasts, right? But the category of "monster" is ambiguous. For example, there are those who appear human on the outside but are actually monsters. And there are also those like Murah who appear to be of a different race or monster on the outside but are actually more human than any human."
It was an explanation when Jinseok said no.
Murah, not knowing English, sweat drips down his forehead and he stands guard against the dark elf group.
"Brother Jinseok... I'm sorry, but it's difficult for my humble mind to understand your intentions."
Jinseok responds with a soft smile.
"Sorry, Myra. Was the story a bit disjointed? Anyway, to put it simply, Monster Breeder means that my hunter ability works on monsters, but the category of monsters is strange. At least, that's what I think. The concept of a monster is ultimately... isn't it something that each individual thinks about? What I mean is, the moment I recognize the dark elves or other humans deployed in the front line as monsters, I wonder if the Monster Breeder skill might also be activated?"
"...."
"I hope the private message was too long. Anyway, this is what I'm going to do from now on."
That was when.
The dandy young man in the black suit, who was the person in question, spread his right hand wide towards the dark elf unit in front.
After showing off his unique hunter abilities as a monster breeder.
The young man, with a cold shadow cast over his eyes, shouts in a serious voice.
"[Monster Taming] activated, all Dark Elf units must now obey my orders!"
Jinseok's [Monster Taming] activates.
Inside the room, Jinseok's power is activated, and a strange pure white light spreads out and enters everyone's field of vision.
Even the dim eyes of the dark elf who was aiming for Jinseok and his group with a sniper rifle.
The pure white light soon radiates intensely and then quickly evaporates.
"...."
It was right then and there.
An information window notification appears before Jinseok's eyes like a hologram.
None other than the phrase for successful monster taming!
[With the success of monster taming, 14 Dark Elves will follow you as their parents!]
[You can issue simple commands to the Dark Elf party that has become your children!]
It was the munchkin action of Jinseok, a special hunter who tamed dark elves in an incredibly short time.
Murat, the loyal subordinate who was by his side, was completely in disbelief and his large eyes widened in surprise.
"Huh, Jinseok hyung... What the hell is going on? Why are those fierce-looking dark elves... saluting us?!"
From the perspective of Murah, the third party Goblin leader, the current situation was beyond strange, it was bizarre.
It was a standoff with the dark elves, who would have been in a sea of blood in an instant due to their sword fights.
However.
The dark elves, as if they were always like that, had innocent-looking eyes and were all in unison, paying their respects to Jinseok and his group.
For example, everyone would salute politely and wait for further instructions.
"...."
Could there be another hunter in the world with such bizarre abilities?
Not just mindless monsters, but humans, like hobgoblins, who have a ruthless and cold nature, brainwashed the dark elves in an instant and turned them into allies.
But that was then.
A familiar, clear voice, characteristic of a man, came from Murah's ear.
The curious voice of a dandy young man who thought nothing of it.
"What are you doing, standing around in one place?"
"Ah, Brother Jinseok..."
"Ha, taming a Dark Elf, a Class A alien monster, isn't that big of a deal. In fact, I've been experimenting with my [Monster Breeder] abilities quite a bit. Perhaps I could even get along with those who wear the skin of a human, but are actually worse than monsters."
"...."
"Okay, Murah and Goldie, let's go straight to the end of the dungeon with the escort of the tamed dark elves! Let's see what treasures are hidden in this dungeon."
"Duet, duet!"
Jinseok and Goldie cheerfully declared and walked ahead.
Then, the dark elves naturally began to guard him from all sides, in front, behind, left, and right, and then began to act in unison.
Meanwhile, Murah leisurely thinks while looking at Jinseok's back.
"...."
In fact, from the perspective of the hobgoblin leader, Murah, Jinseok was a truly strange human older brother from the first time they met.
But today, as I looked at the broad back of the dandy-haired young man walking ahead with his true colors, I suddenly realized something.
It was none other than the fact that Jinseok might be a much more capable leader than Murah thought.
Plus, with his child and partner, the bizarre gold slime, Goldie!
Murat imagines for a moment.
In the near future, a strange picture emerges where two strange partners, a hunter and a monster, will dominate the entire world of hunters.
And then we see Murah herself and the hobgoblin unit following those two leaders even more closely!
Murah unconsciously lifts his large chin and pouts.
"...."
On the other hand, did you feel even a little bit of Murat's feelings?
Jinseok and Goldie, who were walking ahead, urge them on again.
"Mura, why aren't you following me? Are you going to leave me behind?"
"Duet, duet!"
At the gentle urging of the two giant brothers, Myra's expressionless face suddenly reveals a gentle look in her eyes, and then she shows her usual dignified expression and shouts.
"... Yes, my brothers!"
In this way, Jinseok and his party begin exploring the dungeon smoothly.
****
A strange dungeon exploration has begun.
As Jinseok and his party walk out escorted by dark elves, numerous monsters immediately block their path.
For example, there are special monsters that even veteran A-class hunters have a hard time dealing with, such as the Succubus Queen, Incubus, Vampire, and Lich, which are high-level demons.
The succubus, impressive in a leopard swimsuit on her voluptuous body, provokes you with her cute bat wings and whip.
"Huh, it looks delicious to have a hunter over there. Shall we have a good time with this succubus girl?"
"...."
However.
Jinseok, who was only thinking about the girl he was seeing who was a metaphor(?), shouts out about monster taming with half regret and half sincerity.
"Damn, from my perspective as a man, this is quite disappointing... [Monster Taming] activated!"
Then, as if she had been brainwashed, the succubus queen's bright yellow eyes swirled around, and before she knew it, a blush filled her cheeks. For some reason, she crossed her legs and swore allegiance.
"Hehe... Handsome Hunter Oppa, loyalty!"
In fact, the current course of action of Jinseok and his group was such that any enemy they encountered was an ally.
Was it when the number of Jinseok and his party suddenly reached 100?
Jinseok, who sensed a strange energy as they reached the end of the dungeon, spoke to Goldie with a serious expression.
"Goldie, I think the boss is over there? And it looks like the item we were hoping for is there too."
"Duet!"
The hamster-sized Gold Slime, which had been resting on Jinseok's shoulder, shook its tail above its head and, with its eagle-like vision, began to peer at the monster 15 meters ahead.
"...What?"
Then, before Goldie's eyes, a bizarre monster, nearly 15 meters tall and as tall as a building, was standing there.
A demon, an S+-class monster with a skin color so red that it reminds you of Hell Joseon's inferno, a body so strong with bizarre muscles that it reminds you of steel, and horns on its head that shine even brighter like ruby.
The demon immediately sensed the dangerous enemies around him, Jinseok and Goldie, and glared at them with burning eyes, showing a strong sense of alertness.
[....]
The guy's danger level must have been at least on par with the cursed Black Drake that Jinseok and the elegant-looking apple-haired girl, who had previously been S-class hunters, had subdued.
Meanwhile, Jinseok confirms the demon and smiles cheerfully as he reminisces about the fun times.
"It's an S+ rank demon... Its rank seems a bit low. Well, it would have to be at least SS to be a match for us, right?"
