Chapter 142 - Fatal
This was the main reason why they enforced a moral conscience to the hunters in the country. It was hard to get the hunters to follow the rules.
Jaehwang was holding the broken drone in his hand and it made the atmosphere pungent. Suddenly, they heard a voice through their headset. It was a command by the officials from the control tower.
—Thirty Daku monsters has appeared! There’s even 210 of them three kilometers away! We need an armed hunter!
Everyone in the room began to worry after they heard the news. They could easily protect themselves from 10 monsters but 30 was much more dangerous but, they couldn’t ignore a request from the control tower.
However, the biggest problem was that they were currently keeping a level 6 hunter hostage.
One female hunter then said to him, “You have to help us!”
“Y-Yes, that’s right. You have to help us fight the monsters!” Two of the others hunters insisted. Everyone was afraid and would rather let him help them than keep hostage.
But, Jaehwang’s expression didn’t change at all. Not after the alert or after they pleaded for help. He then reached out his hand toward the female hunter and said, “Take it out.”
“W-What are you talking about?”
“The headset.” Jaehwang said and she handed her headset over to him. He then turned it on and spoke into it.
—Hunter number xxxxxx Jeon Jaehwang, level 6. I would like to inform that I will be independently taking charge of missions from this hour onwards. .
—Hm.. Ah!
Without even hearing for the answer from the control tower, Jaehwang gave the headset back to the female hunter. He was entirely in charge of an intense mission. Not even Jaehwang could ever expect that but he knew that he was ready for it. The Dark Knight’s clan master was a level 7 hunter to he should also be of good help on the mission.
He then began to think about the plan for the mission that he was about to lead in just a matter of seconds.
Also, he would be able to practice using his newest skills on the mission so for him, it was like killing two birds with one stone.
—Spirit?
—What is it?
—Can you find all the monsters in the area?
—Of course!
She happily replied.
The spirit then flew up into the sky and searched in all directions, finding where all the monsters were. Because her and Jaehwang were connected, he could see what she was seeing so with her help, it was easier for him to hunt them down.
“There’s a lot of them. No one has a chance of escaping.” Jaehwang then readied his weapons.
‘Guided and Exploding arrow!’
Swooosh! Pang! Swoosh! Pang!
After shooting one arrow, he immediately launched two more arrows after them.
He could his energy running through him. The arrows flew at light speed through the air like missiles.
One of the other hunters then approached Jaehwang and handed him the headset.
—Good job, everything is going great! We’re going to send some backup to help you out!
Shouted someone from the control tower. The happy tone had changed into the voice of Jeong YeongJoon who clearly did sound too happy.
—What’s going on! He’s causing a complete wreckage! The Dark Knight clan would have handled this on our own!
He said but Jaehwang just laughed it off.
“Can you guys take it from here?” Jaehwang asked the other hunters.
“Uhhh…” They all took a few steps back and clearly, Jaehwang had the answer to his question.
Pang!
Jaehwang continued on with his attacks..
Swoosh…
“They’re dying, you’re doing great!” one of the hunters shouted.
“Awesome!”
All of the hunters then cheered with joy.
Pang!
He began to finish off the remaining monsters.
Kwang kwang!
Soon, there was only one more left. He gathered up all of his remaining strength and continued to stay completely focused. The monster was quite strong with a high endurance level but Jaehwang knew he could finish it off. However, when the time came, he couldn’t go on with the last attack. His arm was suddenly covered in so much pain.
He switched his bow and arrow to the other arm and finished it off with his last attack.
Pong!
The monster then collapsed to the ground.
Unfortunately one of the other hunters helping him had gotten injured, causing his leg to excessively bleed.
A female healer quickly rushed to his side to heal him. She then had a confused look on her face. She could heal his leg quickly but, his ankle was so badly injured that it was too complicated for her to heal. It was impossible to heal him, not with the technology and the skills that they had. It was going to take her awhile to at least try or he would have to spend at least three days in the hospital. That was a lot of time for someone who they needed on their missions.
“I don’t know if I can heal you completely.” She told him with a disappointing tone in her voice.
After examining the wound, she saw that one of Jaehwang arrows must’ve hit him by accident.
“His pain tolerance must be high.”
“Of course it is, he’s a level 6 hunter.”
“Us on the other hand are risking our lives on this raid!” One of the other hunters complained. Jaehwang took a look back at them and they all immediately stopped talking. What they said was true.
They then heard an emergency alert through their headsets.
—Another outbreak has occurred! There’s been an alert at gate 5! An outbreak of even stronger Dakus has occurred! Quickly get going to the North-east direction! There’s about 20 of them there! We are sending a plane for everyone to take.
Everyone’s face turned pale in fright after the control tower update was finished. Another outbreak, more Dakus and the fact the they were even more stronger, bigger and faster than the last terrified them to their bones.
But, it was their job. They all got onto an airplane sent by the control tower officials. The airplane soon took off and they found themselves flying in no time.
“There were no exact instructions sent by the control tower officials.” Said one of the hunters in the clan.
‘This is going to be harder than usual…’ Jaehwang thought to himself.
He looked out of the window and saw the giant flying Daku monsters in the far distance. There were dozens of them. It looked as if they were flying slowly but he knew better.
“Keep it down over there.” Jaehwang said to the other hunters who were talking. He was concentrating to make a spear out of his arrows to use on those monsters.
Jjuujuuu
As he practiced, the red energy began to surround him starting from his feet until his entire body was engulfed in it. He used the energy to add strength to the spear that he was making. The light that it had was so bright, it caught the other hunters’ attention.
“Woww!” They exclaimed. It was something they’ve never seen before.
‘Unique arrow shower!’
Kwang kwang kwang!!
A dark smoke then surrounded him starting from his feet.
“Ahhh!” Everyone then got scared and started to scream.
Pong pong pong!!
The effects then reached the spears and they went flying at the speed of sound towards the monsters. The spears looked like lasers as they were still covered by a red energy.
“Explode.”
Pang!
Right after Jaehwang spoke, the spears exploded as they crashed into the monsters. They soon heard the roaring screams from the daku monsters from the far distance. His attack worked perfectly and some of the monsters fell from where they were.
However, there was of course, the leader of the Daku monsters. Their leader had a small wound even though he took his attacks head on.
Kwang!
Just when Jaehwang was starting to think that he was too strong and that it was going to be very challenging, the Daku leader fell after his second attack.
He followed through as it fell down and the hunters below scattered around to get out of its way.
Jaehwang watched the monster fall in satisfaction as everything was going according to his plan. He got another arrow and placed it on the bow string to launch it at the Daku leader.
‘Exploding Arrow’
Pang!
There was a loud sonic boom and a red light began to surround the Daku leader after the arrow crashed into him.
Kwang!!
Jaehwang’s hands were moving like crazy as he continued to shoot the arrows and an impressive speed. The strength of his arrows were unbelievable.
The Daku leader’s eyes began to close and it was about to be completely defeated. It died a few moments later and the red glowing arrow inside of it disappeared.
Kwang kwang kwang!!!
The monsters hit the ground, creating a gigantic impact. Jaehwang had defeated them completely at last and the others actually couldn’t believe what he just did..
Jaehwang then walked next to it and said, “Well, what should we do now?”
Everyone was silent as they were still in shock about what they just saw.
…..
Fatal, The end.
