Rumi walked fast down the hallway.
She wasn't that concerned about the fact that there were many raid requests on the Japanese side and canceled mostly all of them. They could have talked about it at first but she didn't even want to consider it. She didn't care about it at all.
[The thief turns away from the hunter. ]
[The structure request is right there?]
[Does a level 9 hunter know how to teleport? What does the Japanese media know?]
[The Japanese citizens are suffering due to the monsters!]
-Is this true information? Do you think the prime minister stepped down?
There were lots of stories going across the national media.
The Japanese government even started to rebut the stories. Obviously the conflicts calmed down and they were able to have a smooth conversation with Korea but they spoke in a criticizing voice.
For this situation there was one simple speaker. Japanese number one clan team vaportizes the Japanese government members and now the Japanese hunters are in mayhem. With things going how they are now Japan's citizens are suffering even more than before because of the monster invasion. It was a problem that they couldn't just turn away from.
In conclusion, the Japanese citizens were very angry and the news reached other countries and became an intriguing news to everyone.
[Could they ever forgive the life of a fellow citizen? It was Japan's duel behavior]
[Should they just let them get away with it? Would Korea be able to live with that?"
[When will the most powerful hunter of humankind apologize?]
Korea then began to plummet and the media all across the world began to report on it. Besides, now they were in a friendly competition.
The reason for that was that Korea currently were the only country able to hunt a ninth tier monster since they had a level 9 hunter.

"The reactions are very intense. Hahaha"
"If things start to get too crazy then we're in trouble but I'll make sure that doesn't happen."
Gwanjae calmly with a laugh. He then looked across the room with a sharp look in his eyes.
"You're finding joy in these difficult times?"
He said with a sigh.
"What... Ugh"
Choi Younggi was at a loss for words.
"I thought it was more unusual then usual but a monster like this is just unimaginable."
After an hour of silence the Virginia government received the calculation details for the raid.
Choi Younggi helped with everything and knew that the best person for the job would definitely be Jaehwang.
In the past he even revived Pyeonggang providence.
He had no choice but to come to the realization that Jaehwang was the only one that could save them from such a powerful monster.
"Do you think he'll be able to make it through hunting down this monster everyday until the job is done?"
"Days? I was thinking more like five minutes."
Gwanjae said and patting Choi on the shoulder. Of course five minutes was an exaggeration but his hunters were good at getting things done in a fast amount of time. But, what was more scarier than hunting monsters was becoming one of their appetizers.
Originally, they weren't worried about the monster eating the any humans but after seeing the recording from the drone they decided it was a good idea to take more precaution.
"What about that mysterious speed and range of his? If he could keep that up all day then wouldn't capturing the monster be a piece of cake?"
Just the thought of it sent a shiver down his spine.
If only it was that simple then Jaehwang could easily complete the raids on his own in no time.
Hunters usually moved slowly and carefully but Jaehwang didn't move slow at all.
"He's very brave."
"Indeed."
"Alright so, do you need some help too?"
"Well..."
Choi asked Gwanjae.
"Are you sure you can do that? I thought you were retiring. I wouldn't want to ruin your plans."
"No no. Don't worry about that."
Choi Younggi said in immediately as he knew that Gwanjae didn't actually mean retirement. Retiring and being forced to retire were clearly two very different things. He had to be very careful not knowing the mess he could be in.
Choi then reached out his hand and said,
"Ah, this is the payment..."
"Okay. That was fast. And the information on the others..."
Gwanjae asked as Choi seemed to have forgotten something.
The both of them then smiled.
"The situation in the village caused the water to leak."
"Right. Now is the time to answer the clan's call of condolence."
Gwanjae said with a smirk.
He's been waiting for a time like this.

The level 9 hunter's arrival was being celebrated by the entire world and Jaehwang woke up to a peaceful morning. Of course when he walked down the hallway everyone could recognize his face whenever they saw him and freaked out.
The only peaceful place for him was the personal training room he always went to. After he finished his morning training he went to the cafeteria with the other hunters. The atmosphere was a bit different than it was the previous day.
When Jaehwang walked into the room, everything went silent.
After about thirty minutes Jaehwang went back into his own room and smiled. It finally felt like home to him. Suddenly, the door then opened and a giant shadow covered him.
"Hey! Jeez, I'm out of breath!"
Dongchul said exhaustedly after walking through the door.
Jaehwang picked up a glass of cold water and drink from it without acknowledging the person at all.
"You idiot, you seem like a terrible person..."
Jaehwang then turned around and said,
"Can't you knock?"
"Knocking? What's that? What are you going to do about it?"
He replied.
"WHat's going on? You've been really busy since this morning."
"Well, I've been having a lot to do these days."
"Like what? Have you been spending all of your time training?"
Dongchul asked.
"Yea, that's basically it."
"What about you?"
Jaehwang asked.
"Not much but I am having a baby."
He's been living with his girlfriend for a long time and they're already having a baby. The two of them haven't even gotten married yet.
But, Jaehwang didn't really care about it.
"Wow, congratulations."
"Thanks. Ah, that's not all I came here for."
Jaehwang's congratulations didn't sound so exciting but he was happy for him.
"What are you watching?"
Dongchul asked looking at Jaehwang's tablet screen.
There were dozens of articles about the Japanese clan.
Looks like Jaehwang was reading all of them.
"You're looking for clues for something?"
"Sort of..."
The japanese clan's house was destroyed by a monster that secretly came through a nearby gate. As he continued to read on he was finding out more and more information on Baekren.
He had the ability to make his own gate and open it wherever he wanted.
"Clearly he's very powerful."
"If you listen to the Japanese citizens then your right. What crime have they committed?"
"I have no idea. A few years had already gone by but eventually they were going to die because of them. They deserve to be punished."
Jaehwang felt angry just thinking about how they were responsible for Sooji's death.
"Will you need help hunting them?"
Dongchul asked.
"It's fine. I'll handle it."
Jaehwang replied.
Besides, Dongchul now had a family to focus on, he didn't want to take his time away from that.
"Alright."
Dongchul replied and closed the door as he left the room.
"Finally..."
Jaehwang said as he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
He wanted to know more about Baekren's power but he wasn't sure how much more information he could find on him.
But, now he was more confident and knew he could think of an effective way to fight against him.
"This is gonna be fun."
It was time to catch the fish.
Jaehwang then smiled and later fell asleep.
