“….”
The photos of a raid taking region in a small kingdom to the a long way East left a quite hefty intellectual surprise to David Brennan, the director of the us’s Hunter Bureau.
“What do you suspect?”
The deputy director carefully requested his boss. And the director changed into quick together with his reply.
“in no way mind what I think, aren’t you right here in those early hours because what I’m approximately to say? Am I right?”
That turned into certainly genuine.
It was already an unusual prevalence for the director of the powerful Hunter Bureau and his deputy to have a assembly at 4 within the morning, but then, their meeting area additionally occurred to be the kitchen of the director’s non-public house, as nicely.
A heavy silence descended between guys sitting opposite facet of the dining desk.
Puff, puff….
The director replayed the video one extra time as he sucked on his cigarette. He changed into nonetheless getting shocked by way of what he changed into looking. specifically while he were given to the component in which the Hunter summoned out black ‘infantrymen’ to comb away the swarm of ants, the director’s entire frame shuddered fantastically.
‘…….’
What may want to anybody say after viewing this crazy video?
And so, as he endured sucking on some other cigarette in silence….
The director’s wife came down from the upstairs bedroom searching for her lacking husband, and referred to as out his name after spotting the mild in the kitchen.
“Dave? Is everything o.k.?”
whilst the director wordlessly gestured with his hand, the wife looked at him worriedly for a moment or earlier than going again to the bedroom.
exactly 3 cigarettes later, the director quietly opened his mouth.
“What a waste of talent to be limited in a small country like South Korea.”
“I agree.”
“What will we know about him?”
The deputy director without problems brought out a document containing all the pertinent information related to Seong Jin-Woo. The director scanned the files and fashioned a happy smile.
“excellent.”
It have been less than an hour since the raid got here to an quit at the island of Jeju inside the united states of america far, a ways east, yet the associated information changed into already in his fingers. no longer best that, the file contained the entirety from that Hunter’s type as well as his close pals and household, too.
Now, this became the strength of the united states, the Hunter ‘superpower’ inside the global.
On the opposite facet of the table, the deputy was smiling inwardly to himself.
‘We got fortunate in this one.’
certain, the swiftness of the american intelligence community become one element, however good fortune performed a big element, as well. To be greater precise, the ‘Seong Il-Hwan’ incident.
An lifestyles that would either be a human or a monster in hide exited from a dungeon and claimed that he changed into a Korean Hunter. The information compiled lower back then still remained in the database of the Hunter Bureau.
inside the present day scenario wherein no other country even knew what his name become – excluding South Korea, of course – the individuals were able to get two steps in advance of each person else.
‘God bless the usa.’
certainly, if this wasn’t the heavens helping them out, then what become?
but, it wouldn’t do to get all worked up over a minor fortunate accident like this one. No, all of it relied on the skills of the people involved while it got here to turning a fortunate coincidence into a authentic possibility.
The deputy formed a pretty critical expression.
“His father went lacking in a Gate, but he nonetheless hasn’t received any proper compensation until now.”
“H-mm….”
“And additionally, earlier than he went via a Re-Awakening technique, he risked demise limitless instances to pay for his mother’s clinic prices.”
“….What an unbelievable tale that is.”
How may want to they deal with the wife and the son of a hero this badly, while he lost his life combating in opposition to monsters focused on the sake of his nation? the sort of element become completely unattainable within the US.
“And well, this isn’t confirmed information, however…”
The director lifted his gaze off from the documents. The deputy took his time to build suspense and eventually murmured out.
“apparently, he hasn’t signed up with any Guilds but.”
“…..!!”
Now that piece of news controlled to sit up the director’s ears even more. He closed the file with a sombre expression on his face.
“this is a specific be counted altogether from Hwang Dong-Su’s case.”
when that familiar call turned into mentioned, the glint inside the deputy’s eyes changed.
“eliminating rank S Hunters from a unmarried usa…. That’d be akin to putting forward that we are turning our backs on that specific kingdom.”
South Korea and the united states had been allied nations for a very long term. What the director become implying right here changed into that the impact of this matter would mushroom into something alternatively giant inside the near future.
but, the deputy replied with a confident tone of voice.
“Even nonetheless….. Don’t you believe you studied he’s a skills really worth all that problem?”
“…”
Of route.
The director couldn’t deny that. So, he spoke back with a question, as a substitute.
“are you able to do it?”
The deputy answered with the exact same words he used back at some stage in the Hwang Dong-Su’s case.
“I’ll do my first-rate.”
due to the ones four words, the deputy become capable of fast climb the profession ladder to get to wherein he was now. As for the man that the deputy director had locked his points of interest on…
america of america already boasted of the most powerful Hunters inside the international, the so-referred to as ‘unique Authority-ranks’ in their roster, however even then, the director David Brennan desired to naturalise that teenagers as an American citizen.
The director located his fourth cigarette of the morning in his lips and spoke in a grave tone of voice.
“regardless of what situations he places forth, you’ll bring him over to this facet.”

Jin-Woo rode on the back of Kaisel to search out and kill each unmarried ant monster his Shadow soldiers ignored the first time around.
Kiieeehhk!!
yet some other ant fell upon getting struck through the talent, Dagger Throw. Jin-Woo didn’t trouble to step down from Kaisel and sincerely used the skill, Ruler’s reach, to without difficulty retrieve his shortsword.
‘I have to be quite close to levelling up now.’
There weren’t that many ants left to be discovered at the island. Jin-Woo certainly preferred that he’d get to stage up by using killing the closing ants in this location.
to begin with, only a single level up would take him to level 100. For Jin-Woo, who cherished to see numbers finishing in the multiples of five, a hundred was one of these fantastic level that he surely had to get there as quickly as possible.
considering the fact that he hadn’t booked any Gates, as soon as he leaves Jeju Island he wouldn’t have some other avenues to earn revel in factors for a while. so long as he didn’t get fortunate and any other key to an on the spot dungeon popped out of the random boxes, or a dungeon ruin came about near where he lived, of route.
‘Wait, it’s not cool to think of a dungeon destroy as being lucky, is it.’
If a dungeon ruin befell, then that supposed one or extra groups had failed in their raids. So, to him, it was a ways extra most efficient to get to stage 100 in this location.
And, if there has been another purpose for doing so, then….
He ended up recalling a painful memory whilst trying to extract Hunter Min Byung-Gu’s shadow.
The chief of the White Phantoms, Baruka.
After failing 3 times to extract his shadow, Jin-Woo couldn’t convert him into his Shadow Soldier.
whilst he failed in his first try earlier within the day, his heart fell to the pit of his belly, because the thoughts of ‘Am I going to have any other episode like that’ stuffed his head.
‘properly, I did manage somehow to prevail on my 2nd attempt, but nevertheless…’
Wasn’t this the case of ‘A burnt infant fears fire’?
there was no assure that the same element as Baruka wouldn’t occur later whilst trying to extract the ant king’s shadow. That guy’s Stat values were so high that comparing Hunter Min Byung-Gu to that monster turned into a time-wasting gesture.
although it turned into by way of a small margin, Jin-Woo desired to increase his odds of efficaciously extracting that guy’s shadow by raising his stage. He changed into positive that, despite the fact that there has been best one stage distinction, it would genuinely assist out his purpose.
‘….Uh?’
After discovering something on the ground, Jin-Woo ordered Kaisel to land.
Kiiahhk!
Kaisel flapped its wings and gently landed on the ground. Jin-Woo climbed down from his lower back and scanned his environment.
‘It turned into round right here….’
He rummaged thru the tall grasses, earlier than coming across the corpses mendacity there hidden. A deep frown immediately formed on his face. He had found the bodies of the japanese Hunters, mendacity right here and there. There were numerous with their heads lacking, but there has been also one that got mangled past popularity, as well.
Jin-Woo took a more in-depth look at the our bodies.
‘pretty robust magic energy….’
sincerely, those human beings had been robust. They didn’t appear to be they could die in this place in any such manner. The fact that they did die so gruesomely ought to handiest mean that an exceptionally effective ‘something’ had paid them a go to.
‘possibly the handiwork of that mutated ant….’
He turned into unconvinced that something else turned into chargeable for this massacre. nicely, when he become struck for the primary time by using the ant king, his jaw stung quite sharply, didn’t it? If it were every other Hunters, they wouldn’t were able to undergo it even as soon as.
Jin-Woo regarded across the ground whilst feeling particularly sour, earlier than his steps got here to a halt on a positive spot.
‘This charisma….’
Jin-Woo crouched down and took a better study the ground. The soil right here was all muddy and sticky from a prodigious quantity of blood having soaked the earth. A faint trace of magical energy emanated from the moist ground. He had encountered this magic electricity emission once earlier than.
‘…..Goto Ryuji.’
Jin-Woo searched his region again. Goto’s magic strength should nonetheless be felt, but his remains were nowhere to be seen. maximum likely, he were absolutely devoured by way of the mutated ant monster.
“Tsk, tsk.”
Jin-Woo may want to only tut to himself on the ultimately meaningless death of Japan’s most powerful Hunter, earlier than status lower back up again. With super timing, the Shadow soldiers he dispatched to the all corners of the island mentioned returned to him that the remnants of the ant monsters had been completely exterminated.
‘….ultimately, I killed all of them, huh.’
every Korean citizen might a hundred times out of one hundred cry out in elation from that information, but Jin-Woo may want to handiest lick his decrease lip in disappointment. because, his stage didn’t move up ultimately.
Now that there had been no extra monsters remaining, he figured that the handiest issue left to do might be to head again within the ant tunnel to extract the shadows of the mutated ant and the queen. but then….
….His steps got here to an abrupt halt.
‘Wait a 2d… there are nonetheless monsters ultimate?’
His extended senses picked up the presences of monsters from nearby. now not only that, there were such a lot of, too!
a smile fast bloomed on Jin-Woo’s face to replace the appearance of sadness. He lightly jumped back up on Kaisel.
“allow’s cross!”
***
just as predicted….
Jin-Woo’s expression brightened substantially as soon as he stepped in the nursery place. There were infinite eggs lining up the ground, pillars, and even the ceiling.
considering there had been wiggling moves from beneath the semi-obvious shells, these items were genuinely monsters, too.
‘now not positive how an awful lot revel in factors i’m able to get here, however…’
but then again, with this many monsters here, he turned into sure of making up for the lacking amount of enjoy points. Jin-Woo summoned out the Shadow squaddies specialized in extensive-variety assaults.
“acquire around.”
Fangs and 3 Magic squaddies stood in line, according to their grades.
Jin-Woo passed over the Bead of Avarice over to Fangs, and studied every of the four soldiers in turn.
“You all apprehend what you want to do, right?”
The Magic squaddies all nodded their heads in unison. Jin-Woo pointed at the eggs.
“start.”
proper away, Fangs grew to an remarkable height and spat out the frightening flames on the eggs. the opposite Magic squaddies finished chanting their magic and commenced chucking massive balls of flames here and there as well.
Kuwaaahahhh-!
KWABOOM!!
increase!!
Eggs had no manner of resisting, and in no time in any respect, started to use up and explode one at a time.
Kiieehhhk!
Jin-Woo took a more in-depth look at one of the useless ant larvae leaning against the corner of the broken egg. He observed the corpse of an ant, close to adulthood, simply underneath the melted-down shell of the larva. as it became out, each single one in all them he saw sported a couple of wings, without exceptions.
‘If these items reached adulthood and crossed the ocean with that mutated ant in the lead, then….’
despite the fact that the queen became successfully subjugated, both South Korea and Japan might’ve suffered excellent losses.
What a alleviation that he became capable of prevent that from turning into reality.
BLAM!!
boom!!
Jin-Woo noticed that his boys had been breaking out in buckets of sweat, and summoned the Demon King’s Longsword out from the stock.
‘must i have a go with this one?’
on every occasion he moved this cool-looking blue-colored longsword, arcs of power crackled up from the blade itself. He had saved it inside the inventory after defeating the Demon King Baran back within the Demon’s citadel. there has been a motive why he introduced this longsword out instead of his primary guns, the daggers/shortswords.
….due to the added magic characteristic of the longsword.
sleek-!
whilst Jin-Woo energetically swung the sword….
Bzzzzz-!!!
Lightning crackled boisterously everywhere in the vicinity and brought about the blue-coloured storm to kick up.
‘Ohhh!’
A huge smile shaped on Jin-Woo’s face.
although he couldn’t recreate the unfavourable may or the brought ‘Stun’ impact as displayed by means of the Demon King, it changed into nonetheless extra than enough to burn these ant eggs, that’s for sure.
‘Isn’t it too wasteful to leave within the inventory?’
due to the fact he become already a long way too acquainted with the daggers, he would probably never use this sword once more inside the close to future, but nevertheless, he felt that this weapon was too good to be left forgotten inner his inventory.
And so…. simply how lengthy did he spend wrestling with those eggs?
subsequently, he were given to pay attention the familiar and really welcoming mechanical beep.
Tti-ring.
[Level up!]
‘finally!’
Jin-Woo cried out in elation. Inwardly, of path.
He at once again the Demon King’s Longsword lower back in the inventory and headed instantly to the ant queen’s chamber, leaving the mop-up operation to his Shadow infantrymen.
He determined the mutated ant monster nonetheless lying useless at the identical spot. Jin-Woo stood next to it.
His coronary heart became already pounding tough from his extreme desire to turn this mutated ant into his Shadow Soldier.
but….
He had discovered that the energy of awareness turned into critically critical during his tries to extract Hunter Min Byung-Gu’s shadow.
‘I gotta calm down.’
step by step, Jin-Woo’s gaze grew chillier, and his respiration regained its standard calmness as well.
‘…..ok, appropriate.’
His circumstance was now lower back to its top.
Jin-Woo’s gaze shifted decrease to the floor. Thicker and substantially more ominous black smoke compared to other monsters were oozing out of the mutated ant’s corpse.
turned into this because the creature was so relatively strong? So strong that Jin-Woo didn’t even know who to examine it to?
while thinking like that, he frivolously prolonged his fingers out in the direction of the growing black smoke.
“rise up.”
