Jaehwang tried to tiptoe his way out of it.
"Ugh..."
He did attack him but of course, he wouldn't die easily.
Pong pong pong!
He attacked him a few more times.
"Why are you so angry? I don't have the time to die."
He focused on attacking him but his reaction was far from what he thought. He didn't even yell, he just stayed silent. Jaehwang felt like he didn't need to worry but he was running out of time.
"Don't you know that I have the ability to heal myself?" He was getting bruises but he just slowly healed them all right after they appeared. It didn't seem like he would die from the attacks but he had to keep trying.
Jaehwang then found the guy's hunter's license after it fell out of a pocket of his uniform jacket."Rank 5 in strength. So that's why these attacks aren't working."
Usually, someone with a strength skill was difficult to fight with. Jaehwang started to worry and spirit asked him,
-What are you going to do?
-I'll have to lure him in with some kind of bait but he's in rank 5 so that won't be easy.
Jaehwang thought about what could be behind the B3 door. All he could see was just a normal metal door and he couldn't get a glimpse of anything inside.
The spirit then replied in an unimpressed tone.
-Okay but that's going to be difficult, he's very strong and skilled. He could shatter though.
-Shatter?
-It can happen if he reaches his maximum capacity. He could explode and destroy everything...
-How was I supposed to know about that?
Jaehwang replied. He would explode if he attacks him and if he didn't, he would die. Could he somehow attack him from the inside? He wondered if he could gather all of his energy into its center until the spirited tiredly explained it to him in great detail.
-Ugh... He doesn't know basic magic so you should try using what you're best at.
-What I'm best at?
-Yes. You have a strong arrow, right? Wouldn't that work better than magic? It would be better than attacking with your bare hands too.
-You're right, maybe that would work... Thanks
-What's kind of skills does he seem to have?
-I can't really tell.
He wasn't fighting back so Jaehwang didn't know exactly what he was capable of.
"Stop right there! I know what you're planning! You thought you figured it out, huh? Go ahead, try it! You're digging your own grave!"
-Huh?
The spirit said in his head. He acted as if he knew what they were talking about.
When Jaehwang uses an arrow, all of his energy would flow into his hands. He chose a powerful arrow and although he was still a little unskilled with it, he focused on aiming to make the best shot that he could.
Woosh
The energy was then gathered in his hand with a bright red glow.
"What's going on?" The guy said as it was his first time seeing something like that. Right at that moment, Jaehwang suddenly received an alert.
[New skill created. ]
Special Skill
Special energy release – Rank 0, 0. 01 percent
-It's a destructive energy special skill.
"Ah..."
He gained a new skill.
Jaehwang looked at the glowing energy on his palms. It caused a harsh tingly feeling in his hands but, it also felt relaxing as if his hands were submerged in warm water.
-You'll get used to it.
-That's a lot of energy...
Its growth was slow and steady but its effects were expected to be huge.
-It's your first time so you'll have to use it a few times before you get the hang of it.
The spirit said. Jaehwang then did the best he could and aimed at the guy's stomach.
Pong...
It exploded as the arrow launched towards the guy at the speed of light. He had started to bleed so he backed up a bit to see if he would heal himself but he didn't, it looked like his attack had worked.
"Done."
Woosh
The guy then collapsed to the floor and it left a huge splatter of blood on impact.
-Be careful.
The spirit was able to absorb the energy from the guy after he was attacked and she laughed as Jaehwang put the magic tiara on his head. He planned to do a little remodeling on the tiara so it could suit him better.
[Activating control skill]
He used the control skill and caused him pain. He followed the basic instructions that the spirit told him to worsen the damage that he did. Jaehwang then asked him about everything that was going on in that place.
"Where is the alarm installed?"
"In the desk, I have a consultation to attend to... please"
"When is it?"
"In one hour..." The guy continued to talk.
"Can I go to the bathroom?"
"I need to make a request to my employee."
"How many employees do you have in there?" Jaehwang asked.
"One... just one. He answered.
"Give me the details..."
"She's a rank 4 hunter... She has a healing skill and she can put up a good fight against trespassers." He said. The guy then started to sweat excessively as the pain grew greater.
Jaehwang knew that he was in a terrible condition so he sat him in a chair and healed him a little. He then asked him in a cold voice after he finished tidying things up."It's time to go to the bathroom. Call your employee."
"Okay." The guy then pressed the button at his desk and spoke.
-I have to go to the bathroom for a second, come and watch over my office."
-Yes, sir. I'll be right there.
He called his employee and they then heard his footsteps coming down the hallway. It wasn't long before a female employee walked into the room. It was hard to tell how old she was. She was wearing thick makeup and bold lipstick along with her expensive looking black pants and suit. She took an earphone out of her ear and went over to the desk.
"You've requested for me to come.... Hm?"
She looked down on the table and noticed something strange going on. A giant shadow covered her up, she noticed his boss' injured arms and legs so she backed up but it was too late since Jaehwang had already begun his attack.
Kwang Kwang!
He showed up from behind her and slammed her head unto the table. She then collapsed and fell onto the floor with blood running down her forehead.
-This skill is more useful than I thought it would be.
He thought of the fight that the had with Dongchul and how he used the same skill over and over again.
-Oh my gosh, why did you do that? You should've taken it easier- Hey! There's a tablet, pass it to me!
-Huh? This?
Jaehwang then picked up a tablet that the female employee dropped.
-Quick... give it to me.
She nabbed the tablet from his hand and she opened it up to see the latest drama. It wasn't long before she got bored and frustrated.
-Come on, don't make that face.
Looks like the drama was getting troublesome.
... Pong
"Argh!"
Someone yelled painfully right before passing out. He tied the female employee's hands with a chord and he taped the girl's mouth shut. It was now time to kill the main boss.
-Wow, you're really treating both the men and women equally.
-Is that a compliment?
-Do you think it's a compliment?
Click
Door 3B made a clicking noise as he opened it up using the female employee's card pass. Jaehwang activated his tiger hunter skills and walked through the door. With his new special skill, he was able to sense where all the surveillance cameras and that enabled him not to get caught.
The place was dark and he needed to turn on the lights but the surveillance cameras would be able to sense that. He was, unfortunately, running out of time. He did his best to avoid all the cameras and look through the place thoroughly in the dark.
He could hear one of the female employees from the other room shouting for help.
Tang! Tang!
"Save me... Save me!"
"Ugh, I'm ready to get out of here."
The room felt like a prison since it filled with metal doors instead of windows. He kept hearing the sound of employees crying for help. He soon started to sense a strange smell.
After walking through the door, Jaehwang opened up one of the dividers and looked through everything inside.
"P-please save me..."
The room was dark but he had no problem since he had the spirit with him. The employees were all secured in the other rooms so he won't have to worry about anyone coming after him.
Jaehwang then went down the hallway to another room. He put the key through the metal door and opened it.
"W-who are you?... Get out!"
He tied the person that approached him and turned him into a caterpillar. He wondered for a second what would happen to those employees after they make their escape.
"Let's start searching, " Jaehwang mumbled.
"N-no..." Said a guy who was tied up as he saw Jaehwang walk into the room.
He didn't notice him when he walked in so he took out his knife to free him from his binds.
"Ahhh!" He looked surprised now that he's been freed. He checked his arms and legs to make sure he wasn't harmed. He then looked at Jaehwang before he fell into his hands and knees."T-thank you. I don't know who you are but... Thank you.."
"My name is Jaehwang. Are you okay?"
"Ah, I'll be fine, I just need some rest and a little healing." The guy replied nervously. It looked like he had a few bruises because of what they did to him.
"That's a relief. I'm running out of time, I'll go save everyone else here."
"Okay."
Jaehwang then left and quickly went to save others."You can thank me later, I really need to get out of here."
The one that he saved helped the others escape. There weren't many of them in that place. It was a total of 11 people. Seven guys and for girls, all of them looked frightened.
One of the guys then asked Jaehwang, "You came here alone to rescue us?"
"Yes, I was able to get through alone."
"I see.." The guy seemed anxious about Jaehwang's answer. He had trouble believing that he was able to sneak in alone and save them.
Jaehwang was able to sneak past the guards and the surveillance but taking them all at once would be difficult. He used another guard pass to get them all out of there. He wanted to give the information to someone else so they could look after it but it looks like none of them would be able to protect it. They walked down the hallway and they were able to make it through.
The building was about to close so they had to hurry or else, they would be stuck there and get themselves recaptured.
Jaehwang went back to the room where he slammed a female employee's head against a desk. He looked at the table with a worried expression. Their biggest problem was to escape and their only way was to go through the elevator.
One of the people he saved then quietly raised their hand.
