This will remove the underline when you hover over links in the post content, post meta, or comments in the Blogum theme:

.post-content p a:hover,
.post-content li a:hover,
.post-content table a:hover,
.post-data a:hover,
.comments-link a:hover {
	border: none;
	text-decoration: none;
}

Inline style

This method removes the underline from a single link.

Example

Note that inline style is not advised. It makes code less maintainable and uses extra bandwidth.

If you check the custom CSS you have, you should find this line, that defines the styles applied on mouseover:

.post-content p a:hover,.post-content li a:hover,.post-content table a:hover { background-color: #00f1c6 }

In that same selector, if you add this line:

border-bottom: 0px;

then the black underline will disappear on mouseover.
