I Have Awakened, but Mosquitoes Are My Enemies

Anyway, it has already been detected by Junyoung’s senses.

‘It’s twice the size of a regular mosquito.’

But what are those red horns on your head?

Two curved horns reminiscent of demons.

‘It must be hair, not horns.’

They are so small that they seem to have mistaken their fur for horns.

‘The more I look at him, the more peculiar he looks.’

The size of the stinger is several times that of other mosquitoes, and it looks sharp, reminiscent of a knife.

I feel the force reminiscent of the sword master of the mosquito world.

Anyway, what will you do in front of the natural enemies of mosquitoes?

Pak!

As expected, when Junyoung flicked his fingers lightly, the body was separated into several parts and fell helplessly to the floor.

[I got 100 won.]

Even if you are a Sword Master Mogi, is it the same as giving only 100 won?

For some reason, it seems that the mosquito system is a fair world without discrimination.

[Your level has risen.]

‘Why did my level suddenly rise?’

【Name】Junyoung Kang

【Level】 2

【Mana】 120/120

Looking at the status window, there is no change anywhere else.

However, the total amount of mana increased by 40 points from 80 to 120.

And it’s not listed in the status window.

‘I feel like my body has become lighter.’

Is it because of the increased mana?

My steps are light and it feels like my arm strength has increased for some reason.

‘They say that becoming a hunter will make you stronger as you level up, so I’m sure it’s the same.’

He has no combat abilities other than catching mosquitoes, so if he gets stronger, that’s it.

Still, it’s amazing that the level goes up just by catching mosquitoes.

‘The signal has changed.’

When the blue traffic light flashed, Junyoung quickly crossed the crosswalk and entered the district office building.

But just like that, Junyoung disappears and after a while.

Two sharp-looking men, Yoo Jong-soo and Park Hyun-min, started looking for mosquitoes near the crosswalk.

“Someone must have caught mosquitoes here.”

The two look surprised when they see the dead bodies of mosquitoes lying under a telephone pole.

“But they are all normal mosquitoes. Is this really the direction he disappeared, Officer Park?”

“Yes, I’m sure, Chief Yu.”

“Did I miss a trace?”

“No matter how I look at it, I can’t see it. Could it be that he just died? It could be one of those dead mosquitoes over there. Or maybe it was eaten by a bird.”

“A normal mosquito might not know it, but it’s so fast that it won’t be easy to catch it unless you’re a hunter.”

“I heard that a Class D Hunter died last night from being bitten by a red horned devil mosquito.”

“So that’s a problem. If such a vicious bastard even bites ordinary people, it’s doomed.”

Then, Jong-soo Yoo found a pigeon nearby.

“Is that it?”

“Looks like a piece of the carcass of a red horned devil mosquito?”

Yoo Jong-soo’s body approached the side of the pigeon as if teleporting.

He caught the pigeon with one hand as if snatching it, and pulled out a piece of the mosquito’s carcass from the pigeon’s beak.

“That’s him.”

“hahahaha, what did I say? The natural enemies of insects are birds. No matter how great a bloodsucker, can you stand out in front of a bird?”

Yoo Jong-soo nodded.

“I don’t know if this pigeon deserves a certificate of commendation or not. But was there really only one?”

“yes. The only dangerous guy is him. Other than that, the protruding ones are more poisonous than regular mosquitoes, but they are not fatally toxic.”

“Still, I heard that it is more toxic than the mother period. If ordinary people get bitten, they may end up needing to be hospitalized.”

“We have no choice but to be as careful as possible by spraying mosquito repellent.”

“Did you figure out how many there are?”

“I honestly don’t know.”

“…”

“The sensor in front of the gate only detects those classified as dangerous species, so there is nothing we can do about it. The authorities are only asking for a little more strengthening of quarantine, but in reality they are letting go. Of course, we send out broadcasts every day telling us to be careful of mosquitoes.”

“It’s such an easy measure. Don’t you know that mosquitoes can also contribute to one of the end-of-human scenarios?”

“Could something like that happen?”

They sealed the collected red horn devil mosquito carcasses in plastic and headed toward the district office building.

* * *

Meanwhile, Jun-young entered the ward office building and headed to the Hunter Management Department on the 3rd floor.

‘Is it because the level went up? My whole body is really refreshing.’

No matter what pills or energy drinks you take, you won’t feel this way.

Jun-young is born with poor physical strength, so if you concentrate on anything a little, you will get tired.

But today something is different.

My body hasn’t changed, but maybe my stamina has improved a bit?

Particularly when it comes to level 2, that part is felt even more clearly.

‘An unknown aura in the body. Maybe that’s mana?’

First of all, I feel healthy, so that makes me feel the most pleasant.

Even if you don’t get recognized as an F-class hunter, don’t be too disappointed.

Just being healthy means a lot.

‘Yes, I can do anything as long as I have good health.’

The reason why he is unemployed is because of his poor physical strength that gets tired quickly.

A natural weakling.

There was also a lot of mischief.

However, he became an Awakener and had hope to overcome his limitations.

If you continue to raise your level, you may have steel stamina that you will not get tired of.

wow~

Pak!

[I got 100 won.]

From noble mtl dot com.

But why are there so many mosquitoes?

Isn’t the ward office building supposed to be well-disinfected?

It’s outside, but it’s disappointing that mosquitoes are still flying inside the building.

‘They’re a bit sharper than regular mosquitoes.’

Of course, even so, it is nothing in front of agile hands.

Pak! Fak Fak!

Mosquitoes die just by holding it without having to flick your fingers hard.

If there are mosquitoes without being aware of it, I automatically hit it with my finger to get rid of it, and today’s mission was completed before I knew it.

-Today’s Vampire Massacre 100/100

[The daily mission has been completed.]

[You can no longer perform missions today.]

[Currently, your mission account balance is 8,800 won.]

After subtracting 1,200 won earlier, only 8,800 won remained.

A total of 10,000 won.

‘I made money!’

Mosquitoes now look like money.

Mana Mosquito Net (1)

“Did you bring your ID?”

“yes. Wait.”

Gwangjin-gu Office Disaster Safety Bureau Hunter Management Division.

Due to the nature of the department, several armed police are on standby.

‘The smell of mosquito repellent stings my nose.’

Mosquitoes are also detected in the office.

The electronic mosquito repellent was not enough, so it seems that spray-type mosquito repellent was also sprayed, but somehow the mosquitoes look more lively.

An electronic insect repellent is visible on the wall, but even that seems useless.

“Here is your ID.”

Jun-young handed over the driver’s license and the awakening information certificate issued by the community center to Ahn So-young, the public official in charge.

“You are a non-characteristic Awoken. There are 2 general abilities, can you explain specifically what they are?”

Seeing Ahn So-young’s expression change to something gloomy, Jun-young let out a low sigh.

The reality is that Awoken people without certain characteristics are ignored.

“It’s a mosquito-related ability. One is mana mosquito netting, and the other is the ability to rub and heal mosquito bites.”

“yes. Please explain more specifically. Please tell me the same as the explanation in the status window.”

“yes.”

Jun-young told Ahn So-young exactly what was explained in the status window.

“It’s okay, Kang Joon-young. The ability verification test is in a month, so don’t be late.”

“A verification test?”

“yes. What the device can know is whether or not it has general abilities, but we have no choice but to verify the specifics through tests ourselves.”

“You mean the test is only in a month?”

“sorry. All of our work is for Talent Awakeners first. And I had a lot of schedules behind me, so I managed to catch it as soon as possible.”

After a month, I feel like I’m losing my pulse.

“But if this is verified, can I be recognized as an F-class hunter?”

Ahn So-young then shook her head.

“I think it will be difficult.”

“Even if you have two normal abilities?”

“Actually, in the past, even if you had no talent, if you had two normal abilities, it was easy to get an F grade. However, after the government subsidy was finalized, the screening process became more difficult. It’s a budget thing, so I can’t help it.”

“Then these days, in the case of non-characteristics, there are no F grades at all?”

“That’s not it. Even if it’s a non-perk normal ability, there’s a high chance of getting an F grade if it’s a combat ability. If it’s a secondary ability, it should be even more special. That means you have to have at least one useful healing ability to act as an auxiliary healer in a party.”

Ahn So-young calmly continued.

“However, Kang Jun-young’s general abilities are not very special, even if they are actually the same. It’s not about combat, it’s because it can be replaced with simple medicines to just put up a mosquito net and treat mosquito bites.”

“okay.”

Also as expected.

As Junyoung nodded weakly, Ahn Soyeong looked at him with pity and said,

“Still, mosquitoes are so extreme these days, so if Kang Jun-young’s general abilities are proven as they are, there is a possibility that an assistant hunter license will come out. So don’t get too excited and come on this day by 10:00 a.m. on time.”

Instead of answering, Junyoung pointed at her left hand.

“Wait. mosquito······.”

“sorry. Now, the next consultation is waiting.”

“That’s not it…”

“It is difficult right now. No matter how quickly you catch it, it is impossible within a month.”

“I got a mosquito on my finger.”

“yes? Mosquito? Alas!”

It’s already late.

If I had noticed right away when Junyoung warned me the first time, I wouldn’t have been bitten.

“ah······.”

The second joint of Ahn So-young’s left ring finger swells red in an instant, as if bitten by a highly toxic mosquito.

“When the mosquito…”

Seeing Ahn So-young in tears, Jun-yeong mourned inwardly.

‘It must be very itchy.’

finger joints.

It is one of mosquitoes’ favorite places.

Anyone who has not suffered from the itch when bitten will never know.

Snug.

Immediately, Ahn So-young applied a drug similar to the water patch applied when mosquitoes were bitten to the affected area as if rubbing it.

Still, the itch didn’t go away, so she frowned and grumbled.

“Oh, I really wish all the mosquitoes would die.”

Joon-young agrees with that statement.

Then, by chance, I got the natural ability of a vampire, but no one believes me, so what should I do?

“Wait a moment, hold out your hand. If it’s a mosquito bite, we can help.”

It wasn’t that Ahn So-young wanted to be bitten by mosquitoes.

I even warned her not to be bitten, but she didn’t listen.

Anyway, as Junyoung, I thought it was better.

Thanks to that, I was able to show the power of ＜Bite and Rub (A)＞, one of my normal abilities.

“A hand?”

“yes. Mosquitoes these days are so venomous that even if you apply medicine, it is of no use. Hold out that mosquito-bitten finger for a second.”

Then, Ahn So-young remembered that one of Jun-young’s normal abilities was to heal mosquito bites.

I thought it was an insignificant ability, so I scheduled a verification date for office work, but if the ability was as described, it might get rid of her itch right away.

“If you don’t believe it, you’re just holding back the itch. I will not force you.”

As Jun-young turned around and was about to leave, Ahn So-young hurriedly called him.

“Wait. Here’s your hand. please.”

I wondered if the itch would go away right away, but still, thinking just in case, she put her hand out the window.

Then Junyoung turned his head and looked at Ahn Soyoung’s fingers.

‘Is it really going to happen?’

It is a skill that has been spoken of confidently, but has yet to be demonstrated in practice.

Swoop.

Well, if you open it this time, you’ll find out.

He gently rubbed Ahn So-young’s swollen finger with his right index finger.

[If bitten, it heals the target with the ability of Rub (A).]

[1 mana point is consumed.]

This is an auditory hallucination-like notification that can only be heard in Junyoung’s ears.

Surprisingly, the ring finger of Ahn So-young’s left hand returned to a clean state even before the notification was over.

“oh!”

Then, Ahn So-young looked at Jun-young with a surprised expression.

Actually, she didn’t expect much.

Still, I left it just in case, but I didn’t know that the itchiness would go away like this and the swelling would subside completely.

“Thank you very much, Kang Joon-young. I think I will live thanks to you.”

“hahahaha, I’m glad that my normal ability was properly displayed.”

Junyoung emphasized ‘general ability’ and replied as if it was no big deal, but inside he was also quite surprised.

I just rubbed it once, but I never thought my swollen fingers would be fine at once.

At most, only 1 point of mana was consumed.

‘It’s a great ability than I thought.’

Why didn’t I have this ability before?

I feel unfair when I think of the past days when I suffered from mosquito bites.

Now that I have the ability to get rid of the itching even if I get bitten by rubbing it once, I no longer have to sleep at night because of mosquitoes.

‘No. I don’t have to be bitten by mosquitoes anymore.’

He has nothing to do with himself.

But for others, it could be called a complete ability.

“Then could you stretch out the mana mosquito net for me? Of course, to verify your general abilities.”

At that time, Ahn So-young seemed to be struggling with something and then said to Jun-yeong.

“Are you verifying it now, not in a month?”

“I am not an examiner, so it is impossible to verify. However, if you attach a related report, the test date may be slightly pushed back.”

Judging from her expression, it is clear that she is grateful to Jun-yeong for making the itch go away.

“Can the test date really be pushed forward?”

“I can’t say for sure. Still, if possible, let’s do it. It doesn’t matter if you don’t feel burdened.”

It’s burdensome.
