Chapter 77: A Bad Idea 2

The Justin point basement was fully equipped with everything that the hunters would need for work. There was a small city within the base and there a were places that spans from little markets to a club, they also had a great exercise center. It was filled with a few places where the hunters could go to relieve stress.

There was always the smell of meat coming from the market and if one were to be a skilled and a wealthy hunter, he/she could get equipped with all the luxurious items that he/she wanted.

The things in there were very expensive, it wasn’t supposed to be like that but the stores eventually followed that trend.

There was also a coffee shop that sells expensive desserts inside the shopping district. That’s where Jaehwang and a beautiful woman went.

“Try something, the food here is great,” she said.

“Sure, I’ll try a little then…” Jaehwang replied.

He bought a new black hoodie to cover his face and he didn’t even take it off

“I was just wandering around these past days and I found this place. It’s the best. Everything here is so delicious.”

She continued to talk but Jaehwang didn’t reply much in return. He didn’t talk that much and everyone in the cafe kept their eyes on their table just to see her beautiful complexion. Despite that, none of them dared to approach her.

Some might ask if he was nervous but no, he had no problem sitting with her in the cafe since they had to hangout for work every single day.

But even so, Jaehwang knew that he won’t be approaching her anyway if they didn’t have to work together.

She didn’t always get so much attention. She learned how to speak English and made connections with dentists and nurses to improve her teeth before she got her surgery for a sharper nose.

He wondered if the tiara that the spirit got belonged to hers and if she was responsible for the energy because of it. There was a chance that people can’t approach her because of it but even so, she was a girl who had an overflowing dignity.

Their food was then brought to their table…

Jaehwang looked at the desserts that filled their table with a breath of relief.

“So, How long does something like that last?” Jaehwang asked with a smile.

“Huh? Wouldn’t things be hard without much energy? Why do you ask? Are you uncomfortable?” She replied with a curious tone.

“Yes. Extremely.” He then responded with a straight voice.

His neck and mouth could be seen as he lifted the hood to drink a glass of water. Wearing it was tiring him out but he didn’t care. His grandfather, GwanJae, suggested that he should were those to avoid some tiresome confrontations.

“Did you think about doing it in the future?” Jaehwang asked her once again.

“Should I show off a lot? I mean, It’s pretty obvious that there’s no way I could have enough energy for that.” She replied.

He made a mistake. She looked strong but she was only as strong as a fourth tier monster. If he knew about the severe side effects of that item then he would have never approved of her using it. Jaehwang looked at her with loathsome eyes before he turned his attention to the tiara on top of her red hair.

Blood Mary’s Tiara- Special Artifact

Inheritor: Jeon Jaehwang

Material: Platinum, Diamond

Rule

Purify

It was one of the last artifacts that belonged in the United Kingdom. The tiara draws lots of attention to itself and it had an overflowing power to boot. It looked like a hairpin and it could change its form. If the other hunters knew that then they would surely be after it.

Its domination skill was restricted. It was a skill that could take over someone. He asked himself in his head that maybe DongChul was controlled by something like that.

The tiara’s name was ‘Bloody Mary’ and it was very famous and an item like it was used often. The spirit payed attention to its special power and identified that its second skill was purification.

It didn’t seem like anything special but, it was a really great option to have. If the person using the skill had some spare energy in them then it would accumulate the purest energy there is.

The tiara was said to accumulate energy and make it pure.

It was a little more stronger than usual if those energy had piled up. The value for the tiara was priceless, but the special skill was very useful to the spirit in terms of her kit.

She had been helping Jaehwang for a while now. She had always needed some spare energy to provide her help and even after three years, her job was still not done.

Someone would have to have more strength than the average person to build up and store pure energies because if one were to become impatient and absorb everything in one go, things could go bad and he/she could get corrupted.

Many mystical creatures roamed the earth before the dimension collision but now, they could now only be found in a few distant areas.

The pure energy was a new thing for her. She needed that tiara thinking that maybe she could even help Jaehwang more with it. She was his companion and his helper.

The only problem was that she got a taste of her own greed. She started to see some of its side effects after she tried to absorb it.

The tiara’s and her energy got mixed together due to their differences and it began to eat her inside out. Everything inside of her got purified and that’s when she realized that she had to do it all over again after a week. She just realized how to maintain that magic without making herself disappear.

They didn’t limit themselves and even if there was, Jaehwang would step up and warn both of them. She knew that a skill could grow and would be ready with just one action. I wasn’t anything like his arrows but every equipment that Jaehwang had ever used was limitless in one way or another.

They were possible to maintain but they can’t be refunded. So because of that, Jaehwang had been using his ‘Joonghwi card’ these days.

‘Everything seems more calm than usual today.’ He thought to himself.

Jaehwang knew of the spirit’s appetite and he gave up on trying to control it. Giving up was much more relaxing. He thought that maybe if they had their credit for taking care of the Bileons, they should be swimming with their reward money as of now. He felt that they should be given at least some trophies.

‘We’re pretty spotless.’ He whispered in his head.

They defeated the Bileons without any support. The creatures of the valley had consisted hundreds of third tier monsters but they got out of there alive. Jaehwang asked himself if there could be something that Joonghwi didn’t mention to him. The other platoon members looked like they had packed millions and that’s the same for him as well.

“That must have been what happened to DongChul.” The spirit said as she ate her dessert which made him wonder what happened to his friend.

The platoon explained everything to them about Dongchul before their supporters came. He tried to hide on their bus but everyone knew that they couldn’t take him with them forever.

Jaehwang couldn’t help but request an SOS call. His grandfather, GwanJae, answered the call and said that he would help him. Jaehwang’s he got his answer when he took the phone and within a quarter of a day, he sent them off to GwanJae right away.

But of course that wasn’t anything free of charge.

He helped him look after Dongchul, he healed him and basically helped him with everything so Jaehwang promised pay back GwanJae’s favor later. Jaehwang actually didn’t want to get GwanJae’s help and he tried not to but he was left with no choice. Even though him and GwanJae had a good relationship, GwanJae was still a harsh cold-blooded ruler.

The hunter was controlled by someone dozens of years ago. That person wasn’t the type of guy who just laughed, stroked his beard and shook his head when he heard Jaehwang ask for a favor. GwanJae had a clear plan for him.

He was scared thinking that maybe he didn’t have the skills for it. He was his grandson but he still considered him as their family’s savior. Both of them had maintained a steady distance between their relationship even though it seems impossible under their circumstance.

“Everything will be okay. One hundred animals are growing inside of that old hole but I’m sure that they could be sincere once they get to know you.” The spirit then reassured him.

“That’s a scary thought. He’s someone who believes that what I’m doing is right… Does it seem that I can make him proud? This may sound a little funny but, I’m someone who can never be trusted.” Jaehwang replied.

“Even I can’t trust you?” The spirit gave him a soft smile and Jaehwang just laughed back as he shook his head.

“Of course, you can trust me.” He knew that the spirit could trust him. He knew that if he were to take a darker path, she would still come with him.

“Great.” The spirit tilted her head and gave him a bright smile. It felt like everything around him had been enlightened with her angelic face. She was so beautiful that it made Jaehwang’s heart pound even though she could get cranky when she had to help him with something. She could still be an idiot sometimes.

“Don’t you dare add any restrictions…” Jaehwang watched her keep her smile along with her aura that belonged to a queen. The tiara that she wore just made everything better.

“And you?” The spirit then replied.

“Aren’t I in love?” He said as someone pretty as the spirit walked in. On the other hand, the spirit didn’t turn her head as if she knew that she’s coming. She always knew that he was feeling and even if they tried to hide it, their relationship was impossible to hide. She would occasionally look at him and say ‘wow, how is the tent so big today’ as a joke whenever they would wake up in the morning.

“I…” Jaehwang was about to speak but he paused after he sensed that someone was moving towards them.

“Hello?” A lady walked up to the table where Jaehwang and the spirit was. She looked at Jaehwang and slightly raised her hand. It was an old time friend of his, she was wearing a long waistcoat over her battle suit top and black skinny jeans that showed off her slim legs. She also had a long black hair that reached down to her waist. She greeted him but he just looked at her and tilted his head.

“Uh. Hi.” Jaehwang then replied. It was Sooji, his ex-girlfriend.

“Strange. I didn’t think you ever came to places like this…” Sooji raised one of her eyebrows and smiled.

“What do you mean?…” Jaehwang shrugged. He wouldn’t have come here if the spirit didn’t beg him to. It wasn’t a place he would normally go and he was already bored of being there. He would rather spend his time training.

“And who is this…?” Sooji asked as she glanced at the spirit. Jaehwang hesitated for a bit as he didn’t know how to introduce her but the spirit had disappeared before she even could see her.

“My soul’s companion”

She then just looked over him without a word. All of the other guys that were glancing at her and seemed breathless as she walked away.

“Your soul’s… companion?” She asked. She then looked in his eyes and both of them remained silent.

“So, you’re saying this is… Your soul’s companion…” Her voice sounded a bit confused.

“Uh… Sooji?” Jaehwang said as he stared at her. His gaze felt like an electric shock but she couldn’t just look away. It was extremely addicting but in the end, she felt uncomfortable. He had never looked at others in that way before.

“We’re in the middle of a conversation right now so maybe we can talk next time we meet?”

“Oh… sure. Sorry… for interrupting…” Sooji gave her a quick reply before she went out of the cafe. It got complicated. She didn’t intend to meet him like that. She went to the cafe to buy a drink but there were a ton of guys waiting to hit on her. She then noticed Jaehwang taking off his hood and that’s when she decided to walk over their table.

Her mind had turned blank and by the time she came back to her senses, she was already at their table. Jaehwang’s smile then disappeared due to an awkward situation that appeared in an instant but it soon came back. Nothing else could ever make him smile as much as he did when they were together but now, she felt like there was a different reason behind it.

There was actually a lot she wanted to say to him.

It was as if she traveled back in time. He still had a gaze that shined as bright as a gem. It was what she recognized about him and she was surprised and happy to see that he had recovered from that accident and became a hunter.

She asked herself if it was destiny or just a mere coincidence.

Four years ago Jaehwang would always go on summer and winter vacations to train in the countryside. But in the meantime, a lot of things were happening in Sooji’s life. She became a hunter and a war broke out. Her skills were soon recognized by top clans and they started to contact her. So many of them sent amazing gifts to her and that inspired her parents to start a sports gear company.
