I Tamed the First Rank Chapter 37

In Yoo-shin blinked his eyes violently. Is it because of the magic of the morning sunlight shining through the window? The naturally handsome man looked unreasonably handsome.


He almost replied, 'He's a handsome guy.'


“Well, he…………….he’s heterosexual.”


“Still, there won’t be any guys you like, do you.”


This time he was able to answer without hesitation.


“An older man like Seong-gil.”


“….umm.”


Hyeon Gyu-ha’s flawless smile cracked. He muttered while playing with In Yoo-shin’s hair with a serious expression.


‘I think I hear people talking about aging skills…………………You must have heard wrong.'


It was so low-pitched that he couldn't even hear it properly. In Yoo-shin ignored it.


After work that day, a dinner party was held to celebrate Choi Jin-hyuk and Song Chan-young's return, and In Yoo-shin was able to eat meat to his heart's content thanks to his trainer loosening up after a day.


The video of Hyeon Gyu-ha begging his ex-boyfriend to accept him was a hot topic on the Internet even after that. And a few days later, Lee Neung-bu's promotional video was finally released, and like most Internet issues, it ended in vain along with the sobs of Hyeon Gyu-ha's fans.


It’s been 60 years since Catastrophe.


Humanity no longer considered the phenomenon resulting from the Gates, but there were still some parts that it could not get used to.


"honey!"


“Su-hyeon-ah! Mom, stay here!”


It was the appearance of a demonic beast.


[(Lee Neung-bu) As of 13:27, an unexpected gate has occurred at Eungdeok Intersection in Yeonseo-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul, so nearby residents are requested to evacuate quickly. Reference link for action tips. Shelter confirmation link.]


The open gate in the middle of the city center confused many people. Although it is mandatory to learn how to behave when a demonic beast appears at school and work, it is not common for people to be able to react calmly when faced with reality.


Fortunately, there were two hunters among the passers-by, giving ordinary citizens time to take refuge in an underground shelter.


“Look this way!”


One Hunter activated his ability by pounding the shield he had pulled out of subspace with his fist. The wave of mana spread, and aggro was attracted to her demonic beasts.


The beast was targeting a student who had fallen next to a broken street tree, and it moved its three legs and flicked its long tongue like an anteater. Arrows hit her eyeballs, which were tightly packed like her compound eyes, one after another.


Trampling on the demonic beast screaming in pain,


The demonic beast leaped.


bang!


The first blow was barely blocked by the shield and the arrow hit, but then another demon came in.


Hunter cursed, but pushed and bounced away with his shield.


"shit! We can’t do it alone!”


“Reinforcements will arrive soon!”


“When will that be?”


"sunbae! It’s a-above you!”


While the other hunter behind him was reloading his bow, the flying monster took off. The shield cannot be used to block the magical beasts in front that hit with the body.


“Fuck!”


Hunter reflexively covered his head with his hands. Even though he knew that even if he did that, the bones of his head would be crushed by the magical beast's grip.


The beast's beak, long and pointed like a pterodactyl, opens wide.


“……?”


Nothing happened.


“W-what is it?”


Hunter raised his head in confusion. The demon beasts that were attracted by the aggro, and the demon beasts that were running around because the aggro was not attracted, all stopped in place.


“What kind, of ability is this?”


“Uh, that’s…………………I think it’s psychokinesis.”


“Does that make sense? Psychokinesis this cleanly?"


Hunter, who was looking back and scolding his junior, saw his junior staring blankly at the sky, so he followed suit and raised his face.


There was a person there who made the nonsensical possible.


As Hyeon Gyu-ha waved his hand half-heartedly, the heads of the demon beasts captured by psychokinesis rotated 360 degrees. The bizarre sounds of skin being torn and flesh and bones twisting rang out from all directions.


Despite the sound that would have given them goosebumps at any other time, the two hunters stared blankly into the air. Isn’t it a dream…?…………?


They weren't the only hunters with blank stares.


“Wow…………………How can he do that."


“It took less than a minute, right? Isn’t this the shortest record?”


“I wonder if there are one or two fastest records…………………”


Lee Neung-bu's public affairs hunters, Jeong Min-jae and Kim Ho-jun, who were rushed to the unexpected gate, could only admire them. There was such an overwhelming level of difference that they didn't even feel jealous.


'There was no need to come all the way to us, right?'


Jeong Min-jae glanced sideways at the SUV he was riding, feeling a bit helpless. There was someone in the car who didn't pay attention, as if it was completely natural for Hyeon Gyu-ha to clean up whatever commotion was happening outside.


“The first time a hidden boss came out of the gate in a dungeon that could not be cleared was in Warangal, India in 1953……………..”


It was In Yoo-shin, who was studying hard for the written exam to obtain a hunter's license.


Hyeon Gyu-ha works outside alone. Since it seemed like he would not budge even if Minister of Lee Neung-bu came and begged, Manager Kim had no choice but to allow In Yoo-shin, an office worker, to accompany him.


One might be anxious about being put on a set every time on a dangerous site, but it was surprising that Kang Dan-i and Jeong Min-jae didn't give a shit.


'As expected, if I were to date the current team leader, I wouldn't be able to have an ordinary heart.'


Hyeon Gyu-ha, who quickly finished cleaning up the scene without a single drop of blood, came down from the sky and tapped on the window of the SUV. As the car window slowly rolls down, he pushes it in his face first.


“How was I?”


At that moment, Jung Min-jae rubbed his eyes roughly as he had an optical illusion that his tail was violently swinging from Hyeon Gyu-ha's butt, like a large dog seeking praise.


“Min-jae, let’s go.”


Kim Ho-jun, who had become accustomed to the two of them showing affection anytime, anywhere, tapped him on the shoulder.


“Uh, uh……………….okay."


Jeong Min-jae quickly followed him and ran to the scene.


Although he did not have the ability to annihilate demon beasts in an instant like Hyeon Gyu-ha, there were many things he could do as a hunter.


If he had to choose between studying and exercising, he would naturally choose studying. Even during his school days, his grades were always in the top ranks. He passed the written exam without any problems, and now all that remains is the physical fitness test.


“Gyu-ha-ssi! Look at this, I can see some abs on my stomach!”


Today too, In Yoo-shin, who was sweating in the fitness room, proudly lifted his top, but sensed an instinctive danger in the approaching glare of Hyeon Gyu-ha and quickly lowered his clothes.


“Let me see it again.”


“W-why?”


“I want to feel your abs.”


“That’s sexual harassment…………….”


“I own 98% of Yoo-shin-ssi’s muscles.”


“It’s my body, but I only own 2 percent?”


“Protein supplements, three meals a day, training, threats.”


There must have been an awareness that the training process was full of threats...……………. He spoke for a long time, and In Yoo-shin, who looked like he was going to be interrupted, quickly ran away to the locker room.


Of course, Hyeon Gyu-ha turned the handle of the locked door and used force to break it in.


“How did you tear it apart with just your hands?!”


“With love, nothing is impossible.”


“Those are supplies purchased with taxes...……………!"


“I will pay more taxes for the more I destroy.”


Hyeon Gyu-ha, who blocked the broken door with his body, blocking the hole through which In Yoo-shin could escape, gestured.


“I think Master will stop working out as soon as you pass the physical fitness test.”


That’s hot.


“This moment may be the best muscle moment of your life, Master. Do you want to take a body profile?”


“But the barf photo has a lot of exposure, so it’s a bit…………….”


“That’s why I want to take a picture.”


“……!”


"It's a joke."


A wary light appeared in In Yoo-shin's eyes again, and Hyeon Gyu-ha laughed and levitated him in the air. If he just pick him up, he will try to fight back, but since he is made to levitate at will, all he can do is flail around with his limbs.


Hyeon Gyu-ha, who was sitting on a chair in the locker room, sat right next to him. His arms wrapping around your shoulders feel natural. As he caressed the nape of his neck, the downy hair trembled at his fingertips, and the folds of his neck wriggled thinly.


“Hmm.”


Hyeon Gyu-ha, holding his stiff waist and burying his cheek on the top of his head, let out a satisfied voice. His fingers tightened as he felt the breath that fell along with his voice tickling his hair.


After the Korea University festival day, Hyeon Gyu-ha chased after him more frequently. According to Hyeyeon Lee's expression, she was in the middle of dental treatment.


'I don't think I've been able to completely relieve the anxiety that I misunderstood as being abandoned.'


So, In Yoo-shin could not get out of his arms and remained calmly held today. I was just nervous because it was skinship that I wasn't used to, but I didn't feel uncomfortable.


'When the old men are drunk, they say they're older and younger, hugging each other, holding hands, and engaging in skinship, but I'm just experiencing that about 20 years earlier...…………!'


No matter how hard you try to put those thoughts in your head, it's hard to erase the feeling of strong arms and chest wrapping around you. I am still not used to the warmth of other people I come into close contact with.


“Yoo-shin-ssi.”


Suddenly, Hyeon Gyu-ha lowered his face. The gaze approaches slowly. A slow breath swept over the skin, and the fingertips slowly caressed In Yoo-shin's cheek.

HM: I’m getting second hand embarrassment. Is there no one who returned after their training and wanted to use the locker room…. And saw this lol?
