C169 - He who does what he wants to do. That is the King

Press conference of the Hunter Bureau.

The United States opened its mouth for the first time.

"We are collecting the hunters in one place."

'Is the United States finally using its power to rescue Japan?'

The reporters who met to hear the announcement of the position of the Hunter Bureau applauded with approval.

No one wanted tens of millions of people to die screaming.

The journalists were excited about this.

At that moment, the spokesperson silently shook his head.

"But it's not for Japan."

'What?'

The reporters looked at each other with audacity.

Everyone noticed if someone had any information in advance.

The spokesman pointed to the back screen.

"Ugh!"

No ... "The reporters hung the image on the screen."

The agitation calmed down at that moment, and the place was replaced by static. In the heavy silence, a generalized moan was heard.

The prepared image was so shocking.

"This is the Portal we find today in eastern Maryland."

The size of the Portal was not normal.

Although it is smaller than that of Japan, it is rare.

The size of the Portal is not directly related to the degree.

But...

Neither was a great Portal connected to a lower dungeon. (Double Dungeon)

The spokesman went on to explain.

"Our team has discovered that this Portal is the same grade as Japan and the S-Class hunters in our country will do everything possible to

manage it."

The reporters expressed their despair by hugging their faces, shaking their heads and sighing deeply.

Technically, two S-Class Portals appeared at the same time, unprecedented.

Of course, the US They were not worried.

So far, dozens of S-class hunters from around the world have been able to manage the Portals without difficulty.

The problem was Japan.

'The United States has no way to help Japan.'

While this horrible news traveled to Japan, the Japanese people anxiously awaiting the support of the United States shouted.

Japan was over.

Giant soldiers were heading south, destroying everything in front of them, and people being expelled northward were increasingly driven into a dead end.

In this situation, Korea, which had been silent, also expressed its position.

In front of the reporters, said Go Gun-Hee.

"We will not get involved in Japanese affairs at all."

A day ago.

As usual, there were only Jin-woo and Yoo Jin-ho in the large offices of the guild.

Yoo Jin-Hoo's eyes shone

Brother, I have a Class-B Portal, do you want me to make a reservation? "

"Is it in the area of the Hunters' Guild?

"Oh? Yes, brother."

"It's fine then."

"Ah, it's good brother."

The Hunters Guild, which sacrificed a large number of elite hunters, would be busy spending their time now.

Taking the gap to occupy your Portal was not attractive in many ways.

Yoo Jin-ho, who was scratching his head, turned his head towards Jin-woo.

"My brother, what are you looking so hard at?"

Jin-Woo averted his eyes from the monitor and leaned toward his chair.

"Jin ho"

"Yes brother."

"Should I go to Japan?"

"Oh?"

Yoo Jin-ho's face hardened.

I did not know why Jin-Woo was talking about this, that Jin-ho was one of the few people he spent the most time with.

But...

An S-Class Portal was a place where common sense did not work, since it had no measurement.

Is not it already a norm different from the norm?

Nobody knows the horrible things that can come out of a Portal that can not be measured, since there is a gap that the same class can not overcome.

So, Yoo Jin-ho could not even tell Jin-Woo to go to Japan.

Suddenly, Jin-ho's head returned to the ground and I look at the monitor for a brief moment.

'Ah ...'

The screen was full of news about Japan.

But the amount of impact on Jin-Woo and Jin-ho were very different.

After all, Jin-Woo had the power to help Japan while Jin-ho would only act as a spectator.

"Older brother".

"Yes"

While Jin-Woo replied quietly, Yoo's reaction was very serious.

Yoo Jin-ho who had just left his seat, appeared with something similar to an album in the cabinet

When he opened it, the thick book was scraped by newspaper articles.

'This...?'

All were articles where Jin-Woo came out

Since the accident of the Red Portal that was already known by the community, to the assault on the island of Jeju and recently to fight with unidentified statues with the Hunters' Guild.

Seeing these items, Jin-Woo asked

"Have you collected these items?"

"Yes brother".

At the same time, Jin-ho's face turned red and he said.

"Do you know what these items have in common, brother?"

"..."

After a while, Yoo Jin-ho spoke with a voice like that of a mosquito.

"I'm not anywhere. Brother."

If it were not for his keen ears, Jin-Woo would not have understood anything that Jin-ho had said.

Afterwards, Jin-ho was full of courage and said.

"Brother, if you go to Japan, please take me."

"...?"

Jin-woo was confused

Jin-Woo thought that if he would tell Jin-ho about his plans to go to Japan he would be restricted by him, however ... he never thought that Jin-ho would ask him to accompany him.

But Yoo Jin-ho was sincere.

"Although I am ashamed to say it, brother, you are my pride, thanks to you, I was finally able to get free."

"Your..."

Jin-woo opened his mouth

Jin-ho seems to think of him more than anyone else.

But from what Jin-ho said, it's been the shackles that have plagued him so far. I was not bragging.

However, it was Yoo Jin-hoo's decision to meet him and form the Ah-jin guild.

Jin-Woo could understand Jin-ho's sense of pride.

"So I want to be where you are, please take me with you, brother."

"First of all, do you know where I'm going to go, right?

No matter how immature Jin-ho was, he would have heard of Japan.

It was a hell that is now in the ascendancy of time.

The hell where the 'giant' demons brutally judged humans.

However, Yoo nodded determinedly.

"If you're safe, I'll be fine, if you hurt yourself ... Oh, I do not want to think about that."

Yoo Jin-ho gave him a look with great confidence.

Having a strong trust in someone was a bad feeling sometimes.

With a strange feeling in his heart, Jin-woo stares at Yoo Jin-ho.

Yoo Jin-ho was embarrassed but he did not lower his head.

"Let's go brother"

"Of course it was a joke, why would I go to Japan at this time?"

Then, Jin-woo got up from his seat.

"We're going to finish for today, good job."

"What, are you leaving now, brother?"

When he left the office waving his hands, he leaned toward Jin-woo's back.

"I'll see you tomorrow, brother."

* * * * * * * *

Jin-woo entered his house.

The smell of fragrant soup made Jin-Woo lick his mouth.

'All right'

One of the best things about Jin-Woo's life was that after his mother left the hospital, he now had someone to welcome him to his home.

It was not the dark house and silence as before.

"Have you returned home, son?"

His mother's voice came from the kitchen.

"Yes"

Jin-woo took off his shoes and walked towards the kitchen. Then, seeing his mother, he smiled at her.

"Do you want dinner, son?

"Yes ... And Jin-Ah?"

"No appetite".

"What is it then?

"She did not sleep last night, so now she's asleep.

"..."

After dinner, Jin-Woo went to his room, but before, he carefully opened the door of his sister's room.

Jin-Ah was still spinning and spinning in his bed, it seemed like he could not sleep peacefully.

Her sister used to keep a brilliant figure, but because of the Dungeon Break at her school, she still suffered mentally.

*Sigh*

Every time Jin-Woo remembered his sister trying to fight a monster, his blood boiled.

'Why do they continue torturing humans in this way?'

*Sigh*

Jin-Woo, who was secretly looking at his sleeping brother, closed the door.

"I think thats enough".

Later, Jin-Woo went to the gymnasium of the association to do exercises.

There was a shadow soldier standing in the gym, which is why he came to the gym in a flash

'When you think a lot, the best thing is sweating. I've wanted to sweat for a long time now. '

"Ber."

The ancient king of the ants leaned on his knees and bowed his head in front of Jin-woo, who was warming up gently.

"My King..."

Ber was the only shadow soldier who could handle Jin-woo's attacks a bit.

However, even Ber was not nervous when he felt the change in Jin-woo.

"Thank you, King, I feel more and more powerful."

Ber said that, since he felt the "Black Heart" in Jin-Woo's veins.

But Jin-Woo did not call Ber to show off, instead, he called him to practice.

"...?"

However, after becoming his shadow soldier, this was the first time that Ber looked at Jin-Woo with a worried face.

Jin-woo said ...

"From now on, do it better to fight against me."

"My king, how could I ..."

"Okay, I want to spill some sweat, you know you're the only one I can fight with right now."

"My king, I ..."

Afterward, Jin-Woo gave Ber an intimidating look and said.

"Why is it that you can say more and more words? You did not eat people again, right?"

Ber shrugged and did not speak anymore.

Jin-woo clenched his fist and ordered again.

"Do your best".

"If that is the will of the King ..."

Afterwards, Ber raised his head and stretched his arms and nails.

And when I finish stretching

Kick-!

With a loud roar that shook the interior of the gym, Ber attacked ...

* * * * * **

127 rounds - 127 lost

Ber could not beat Jin-Woo even if he used all his strength.

Therefore, Ber's respect for his king became stronger and stronger.

Jin-Woo, who was sitting next to Ber after the strong training, had a deep look.

Seeing that, Ber knelt in front of him and said.

"King, do you have any worries?"

"Concern?"

"The king and us, the shadow soldiers, are connected, therefore, when the king suffers, we also suffer."

"..."

After a brief moment, Jin-Woo smiled.

This smile was very different from your common smile.

Jin-woo said.

"I have something I want to do, but I do not know if I should do it"

What happened in Japan was strictly another matter.

I did not know what kind of dangers were there ... nor was it possible to deal with all the accidents of the world on its own.

In addition, there was still a bitter enmity between the Korean Hunters Association and the Hunters Association of Japan.

Many ideas complicated his head.

So...

Jin-woo wanted to hear Ber's opinion.

"My King..."

Jin-woo looked at Ber with surprise.

It was the first time he had expressed his will so strongly since he became a shadow soldier.

"Nothing should stand in the way of the king."

"He who does what he wants to do, that's the king."

After Jin-Woo said ...

"Then I'm not the king ..."

Upon hearing that, Ber firmly denied Jin-Woo's words.

"It's not like that, the king has the power to do what he wants."

* Ba-dump *

Jin-Woo's eyes trembled.

'Because my heart is swinging heavily?'

"You, my king, are the king of the world."

Hearing that, his heart could no longer calm down.

'What I want to do...'

At the same time, Jin-Woo's gaze began to shine.

The next day.

The United States had already issued its statement and the president of the Korean association, Go Gun-hee, also issued his statement.

"We will not get involved in Japanese affairs at all."

Click-!

Click-!

Click-!

The flash fired without interruption.

Later, Go Gun-hee, president of the association, told reporters of all the atrocities that Japanese hunters tried to commit.

The evidence he gave supported what he said.

The tests of Matsumoto, the head of the Hunters Association of Japan, making a terrible plot, surprised the reporters.

Japanese journalists waiting for Korean aid had no choice but to duck their heads.

In a short time, his hands with cameras dropped to the ground.

Just before, the United States said it can not help Japan.

In this context, the revelation of the Korean Hunters Association amounted to a death sentence for Japan. Tears welled up in the eyes of Japanese journalists.

"... and that's why we do not get involved"

Go Gun-hee, president of the association, said everything he had to say.

Normally, when the interviewee finished speaking, the rain of questions from the journalists would follow later.

However ... there was nothing.

The atmosphere of the press conference was broadcast live across the country through a broadcast camera.

Only then did people know why Korea was silent about the crisis in Japan.

"But..."

Go Gun-hee, who seemed to turn around after the press conference, spoke again.

"However, although this is our decision, I do not intend to block if a 'specific' hunter in my country wishes to volunteer for your country."

'...?'

The journalists, frozen in shock, began to exchange glances, like animals slowly awakening from their hibernation.

'Who?'

'Who would go to Japan alone this time of year?'

The mood at the press conference, which had subsided, began to boil.

A crying Japanese journalist held the camera with trembling hands.

'Please please...'

His heart was beating with hope.

A Korean journalist raised his hand and asked fearfully.

"Who is that hunter?"

All eyes were on Go Gun-hee

"The Hunter Sung Jin-woo"

After a brief pause, Go Gun-hee put his lips to the microphone as much as possible and said.

Hundreds of cameras shone at the same time.
