n“Not yet.”

nJust then a red light exploded all over the place.

nSwooosh… Swooshh… Swoosh… Swoooshh!!

nOne… Two… Four… Eight… Ten… Twenty…

nA trail of white light began to shine through out of Jaehwang towards up into the sky. The light reached up to the highest floor. It was the shape of a human.

nThey were wearing black leather armor with a matching black helmet. From their shoulders to their waist they were wearing an arrow holster filled with arrows as well as one in their right hand.

nThe person was wearing a hood and a long cape that blew in the wind. He lined up behind him along with ten others.

n“They’ve answered my call.”

nAbout twenty archers stood behind him in black leather armor. Jaehwang called his family for backup.

n“W-What is this?”

nCaroline said in shock. Obviously she never expected Jaehwang to actually answer her question. He was clearly up for quiet the match.

n“Let’s begin the hunt.”

n“Yes!”

nJaehwang’s summoned people shouted and prepared their arrows.

n“A-Attack!”

nCaroline shouted a bit nervously. However, she knew that she couldn’t stand a chance against Jaehwang and his army of people.

nSwoosh! Pang! Swoosh Pang!

nJaehwang’s family begin to shoot their arrows!

nArrows were flying in every direction. No one was safe.

n“Good job! Keep it up!”

nCaroline’s face turned pale in fright as she watched them.

nHowever, this was all due to her mistake in the first place. Maybe if she knew about his secret army then she would have never asked any questions.

nThey were going after them as if they were hunting.

nPang!

nThe arrows shot through the air at the speed of light.

nPong! Pong! Pong!

nA end a giant shadow passed by them… One of the enemy members then fell dead onto the ground.

nIt was time.

nThe moment one of them disappeared the enemy’s side felt a fatal empty feeling.

nPang!

nThey hunted another enemy. The attacks were very overwhelming.

nWhiiiiii… Tak… Tak… Tak

nAs they continued they felt a sensation of power go through them motivating them more than the last time.

nGroup Power Arrow

nFor thousands of years they’ve defeated enemies together.

n-As usual, the energy consumption is more consistent than usual.

nJaehwang said as he noticed he was running out of energy.

nIn order to summon even on person it would take 200 points of his energy. When it was just Jaehwang fighting it would only take 5 points at the most. He couldn’t ignore the energy consumption rate.

nAs he summoned a total of 20 people the energy consumption was very tiresome. By healing himself a bit with a little of what he had left he was able to push through but that didn’t solve the problem for him entirely.

nOf course he was happy with everyone he had summoned as they were doing a really good job.

nAt first when he summoned them he was having second thoughts knowing how much it would take. Especially for twenty people. A better number could have been 10 people but he wanted this to be a real match.

nThe result was very satisfying. He would be able to level up later and his skills would increase.

nJuuk! Juk! Juk!

nEach of them launched dozens of arrows into the sky at a time.

nCaroline kept silent as she was still speechless. Was it too overwhelming? No. Was it slaughter? Execution? No… It was just hunting. Just as they said before they began, they were here to hunt.

n‘They all can’t be level 7 hunters…’

nCaroline thought in disbelief.

nOf course all of them weren’t even close to level 7.

nThey were as powerful as a level 7 hunter when they fought together but they were not as strong separately.

nTheir attacking skills were as strong as a wild animal but their battle intelligence was lacking. But, they were still doing pretty good.

n‘We have to escape!’

nCaroline then immediately begin to quietly sneak away.

nShe knew there was no way they could defeat all of them so her best choice was to escape. Although he henchmen were still trying to fight them off Caroline had to time to save them.

nHowever, she was too late..

nOne of the enemies noticed she was trying to escape.

n“Where are you going? We have business to finish here.”

nShe then gathered both of her hands into a fist and threw a punch before even looking to see who it was.

nPong pong pong!!!

nShe used both her hands and her right leg to punch and kick him in the face. However, he then fought back and punched her to the floor of the rooftop that they were all fighting on top of.

nCaroline was then extremely injured.

nHe arms, legs and the back of her head was bleeding.

nOne of the Jaehwang’s fighters then prepare to finish her off…

n“Y-You can’t do this…”

nJust then a guy stood in front of her to try and stop them.

nHe then kneeled to speak to her and said,

n“Do you want to end this struggling?”

nCaroline then could not feel any pain anymore but instead felt a cold feeling.

n“You were trying to escape, right? Go ahead then.”

n“.…”

nAlthough Caroline’s arms and legs were broken but she still tried to escape despite the struggle. Jaehwang then knew what was the right thing to do.

n‘Quick healing’

nJaehwang then put his hand over her injured arms and legs and the bleeding instantly stopped.

n“I can’t let you die yet. I still have a lot of questions to ask.”

n“Try not to lose conscious.”

nDeukk…

nThey then heard a loud engine noise from the bottom of the building.

n“Huh…”

nJaehwang stood up and looked towards the door of the hospital and saw a car. Whoever was in it seemed to be breaking into the hospital.

n“Finish taking care of that, I’ll go see what’s going on down there.”

nJaehwang said to the spirit.

n***

n“Relax.”

n“This will be quick.”

nHe said as he stabbed a begin to stab a knife into the abdomen.

n“Ahhh!”

nCaroline screamed in pain.

nHe continued to stab the knife in even more.

n“…Just die already.”

n“Is there anything you would like to say?”

nHe asked but Caroline just tightly closed her eyes with no answer. Although she still wasn’t answering he would just heal her and start it all over again. Even it she wanted to die she couldn’t. Her limbs were still slightly broken but her ankles were tied to a tree and she was hanging upside down.

n“You don’t want to play 20 questions?”

n“….”

n….

n“Ahhrghhhh!”

nHe stabbed her with the knife again.

n“N-No.”

nJehwang then continued the torture.

n“Let’s try to play it just once.”

nHe insisted while holding the knife.

n“It’ll be easy.”

nJaehwang looked at her toes and could feel that her soul was trying to escape her. Because he used the healing skill she wasn’t going to die so he wasn’t concerned about that. Anyone else would have surrendered by now but she didn’t plan to.

nAlthough she was defenseless and could end the torture anytime by agreeing to talk, she swore to herself that she wouldn’t reveal anything no matter how intense the torture was.

n“Come on. Tell me everything.”

nEven though he tried to behave as if he wasn’t going to give up either, she knew he would spare her eventually.

n“S-Spare me, please. Only then will I tell you everything. Even if I have to become your slave. Please…”

nShe begged as she hang upside down from her injured feet and legs. Her beautiful face was covered in blood.

n“Talk.”

nJaehwang was determined not to give up on why he was doing that in the first place.

n***

nPong…

nJaehwang stabbed the knife into her again. She seemed to be on the verge of losing conscious.

n“Wheu…”

nJaehwang then untied her and placed her on the floor. He wiped the blood off of he face and took a deep breath of relief when he was sure that she was still alive.

n“Are you okay?”

n“Yea.”

nShe finally stopped bleeding and was starting to feel better already.

nAlthough Jaehwang didn’t get all of the information he needed she told him all that she knew so he was able to let her go.

n“Seriously, that’s all I know.”

nShe was originally born in the Alousu as a member of the Samjeon church. Since the day she was born she possessed exceptional talent and received specialized spy training. She used her skills to sneak her into a position in the national hunter position.

nThey had a plan to destroy Jaehwang and other hunters. She was even taught spells to help with their scheme. She was specially picked as the only person who was right for the job.

n“Baekrin”

nThat was his name.

nHe taught her all sorts of spells. The spells that were taught her were meant to be powerful enough to compete against any hunter, even a high level ranked hunter. Her magic improved a lot and she was very power and prepared but Jaehwang’s call for backup caught her off guard.

n“He said that it was just a test…”

nEven Caroline didn’t know the full plan…”

n“Baekrin…”

nJaehwang said while thinking out loud.

nRevealing the Truth, The end.
