Chapter 9

I don't own solo leveling or Jujutsu Kaisen

...

"Why couldn't you have died sooner, you bastard."

...

"My clothes are ruined," Kim said to himself examining his shredded clothing as he stood up.

"My injuries are really bad. Someone's gonna have a heart attack if they seeme like this... Haha," he laughed to himself noticing the shredded lines running across his clothes on his chest and forearms.

"My Valor title helped me a lot during the fight... I had this massive surge of strength during the fight. I feel really good right now if I'm being honest," Kim said thinking back to his fight with the giant red fox. He witnessed the blood stains on his clothes were drying slowly but surely. His healing factor from his Valor title was kicking in bringing his HP up to a good level. How many times had he been close to death today?

"Six eyes? What's that?" he questioned as he stopped on the passive trait he had unlocked during the fight.

He widened his now virbrant, crystalline blue eyes at the description of the passive skill he was granted by the system. 'These eyes really are something, huh. My sense, agility and intelligence stats have gone through the roof just by having these eyes... Wait it's a passive skill does this mean I can't turn it off?' he mused looking around the dungeon with his enhanced perception spotting the smallest inconsistencies within all things inside the boss area.

Mana is usually visible to normal human eye that's why humanity developed technology to examine magical energy leaking from gates. The gates were holes in time-space that leaked of magical energy so potent that it was visible for the human eye. However, as Kim continued to observe his surroundings he noticed not only was his eyesight astronomically better but that he could 'see' the magical energy flowing throughout the dungeon. Perception on this level was unheard of from Kim's knowledge and it was quite the experience if he was being honest.

The six eyes granted him the ability to manipulate his mana on the atomic level. Considering his intelligence was increased the most by just possessing the Six Eyes then it would make sense that it would correlate to his mana. In what way, Kim had no clue.

'If there's no way to deactivate them then I'll always have to see the world in such vivid detail,' Kim thought as he rubbed his new eyes briefly to relive some strain."Despite that I feel better than ever! I feel like I can take on the whole world," Kim said aloud with a small smirk on his face. "Let me also check out the item I gained after killing that boss,"

"Nice! If only I could use a katana efficiently then this would be pretty awesome, but I can't so I'll just keep it for now," he commented putting the red hilted katana away in his item storage. "Vital strike as well it doesn't seem to be a skill relying on a weapon. It'll be interesting if I can apply this skill with my martial arts. The mana cost is incredibly low, if its like that then I could make every strike a critical strike."

[Instant Dungeon:

The dungeon's interior will now revert back to normal.]

The system notified Kim as his surroundings changed completely leaving him standing in the middle of the Bus terminal building. He looked out a window ahead of him and noticed a crescent moon shinning in the night sky.

"It's nighttime. I must have been fighting the whole day," he commented absentmindedly as he picked up his torn up backpack and headed out of the building through the glass sliding doors.

...

The crystal blue eyed man was walking down the street heading to Hapjung Station when he heard a giant explosion a few city blocks away from him. He looked up, his eyes quickly honing in on the cause of the commotion in the distance.

'A Dungeon break... How curious,' he quirked his lips a bit as he made his way over to the 5m tall blue mana figure that his newly found six eyes easily discerned for him.

...

Dungeon breaks are a rare occurance in the well established Hunter system, but they do occur. In such an event the military personnel nearby are despatched in order to buy time for hunters to arrive and deal with the threat since guns were in effective against monsters. The soldiers were just cannon fodder, but someone had to be sacrificed in order to facilitate the evacuation of citizens in area.

"What are you doing here sir! Didn't you hear the broadcast about the dungeon break!" a serious, camo wearing military soldier yelled at Kim. He paused, however, after noticing Kim's ripped up clothing, "Are you perhaps a hunter?" he asked Kim in a lower but still serious tone.

"Yeah, I am," Kim nodded. The soldier then did a salute and asked if he could guide Kim to the battlefield to help the other hunters with the dungeon break. Kim just nodded and quickly followed the soldier to the scene of multiple E-rank and D-rank hunters fighting a D-rank Boss golem monster.

There were multiple barrier rails put up to keep citizens away from the battle between the hunters and monster in the middle of the street. Cars were wrecked and flipped over, monster corpses littered the street as well, and spider cracks ran along the walls of buildings in area.

"Please don't take photos!"

"Please leave quickly!"

"Please evacuate!"

Multiple soldiers yelled out at citizens trying to get them out of harms way.

"What are the hunters doing?"

"How long are they going to fight it?"

"I wish they beat it quickly."

"What a mess."

"That's a lot of damage, what if the land value drops?"

Were some of the comments of the massive crowd that built up to witness the action between the hunters and the giant rock golem.

...

"This just happened recently?" Kim asked the military soldier next to him. He saw the archer hunters launching multiple magic arrows at the golem only for them to not do any damage.

"No it's been like this for a couple of hours actually. They've managed to keep the damage to a minimum though," the soldier answered Kim.

'I'm stronger than I've ever been now. I can probably take on this monster myself if I stepped in,' Kim thought to himself after analyzing his own energy with his new eyes. He continued to watch the battle go on as the only D-rank hunter there couldn't do any significant damage because he was defending the others from the monsters devastating physical attacks.

"Healers! Please heal the tank!" a hunter with spiked black hair shouted out as he was watching their, sliver armored hunter, best chance getting overwhelmed by the golem's relentless attacks on his shield.

"We're trying our best!" one of the healers yelled back as he was struggling to heal one of his downed comrades. "What are the damage dealers doing? It's not budging!" he argued back, looking at the unhindered attacks of the golem in front of him.

"Its defence is too high! Unfortunately we don't have many magicians!" one of the archers yelled back as he was saved by the D-rank tanker from a deadly swing by the boss golem.

'It seems this team was called together on short notice. They have no semblance of teamwork. 8 E-rank and 1 D-rank is the attack group. The healers are 2 D-ranks and 1 B-rank, but she doesn't seem to be in the game at all,' he thought analyzing the groups magical energy from the back of the crowd.

"Hey! Miss, what are you doing!? I need healing!" one of the archers wearing a green rain coat yelled out to a young, pretty orange haired woman. She was wearing a long red scarf around her neck with a long brown coat.

"You said you were a B-rank healer! Why are you spacing out!?" the crossbow carrying archer yelled at the orange haired woman again. The pretty woman looked stunned at being called out for her lack of healing up until this point.

"S... Sorry!" she cried out, immediately setting up a powerful healing magic circle to heal the green coat wearing archer.

"What's up with her?" the archer muttered under breath as she looked at the trembling form of the orange haired woman.

"If it's going to be like that then it looks like I'll have to step in," Kim muttered to himself slowly and quietly slipping behind the crowd so that he get a better vantage point. He commended the orange haired woman for resolving herself to heal the others even though she was clearly struggling in her head.

Jumping on top of a street lamp once he saw no one was looking. Standing perched on the street he surveyed the battlefield trying to calculate the best time to intervine.

"Mmh..." Kim hummed as he noticed a considerable spike in mana from a long ways behind the crowd. His six eyes ability didn't allow him to miss anything and he certainly noticed the chipped and blunted sword flying through the air with impossible speed straight for the golem's head.

'Guess that'll do...'

...

"If this goes on we'll all die!" one of the D-rank healers yelled.

"If a high-rank hunter doesn't come...No! No! The tank might die at this rate!"

"What do you want us to do?! Our magic is running out!"

The hunters continued yelling at each other as they were slowly being beaten down by the giant golem. The golem suddenly started to rock backwards as if hit in the head by a powerful projectile, but it managed to regain its composure.

"What was that...?" the heavily armored D-rank tank wondered as he was the only one that saw the sword piercing the golem's head. But it was not long before he saw something even more surprising.

...

Leaping from his vantage point to landing a devastating axe kick on top of the golem's head and following through, cleaving its body in half.

A giant plume of smoke obscured his figure from the crowd and surrounding hunters so nobody saw him quickly flee the scene.

'That was certainly exciting! I think I overdid it a little,' Kim thought as he watched everyone from the rooftop he stood on.

He turned his head to see a messy black haired man walking away from the scene very quickly. His black hoodie was cut up on the biceps and ripped on the lower back with his matching black sweatpants being scuffed up from the grime of a battle.

'Such force behind that throw. He's D-rank level and he rocked it with one shot,' Kim thought astonished at the level of power the retreating black haired man displayed. "I feel like this won't be the last I'll see of him," he smirked to himself as he watched the hunters celebrate the defeat of the boss golem, not knowing that similar thoughts ran through the head of the black haired man.
