Chapter 114: The Japanese Clan Attack
“What are we going to do with her funeral?”
“We need to find safety first”
“Great idea.”
He didn’t know what Sooji would have wanted. Maybe she would have wanted to pass away in her parent’s arms. However, Jaehwang felt that her death was his responsibility. He thought that his greed led to her death. He wanted to believe that it wasn’t the end but nothing could change what happened.
“Was she happy?”
“Yeah,” Jaehwang replied. She smiled before taking her last breath. He still didn’t know what that smile meant but he would never forget it.
Jaehwang then checked the time on his watch and got up. “The raid is about to start.”
“Well, let’ get moving.”
They wore their armor and doubled checked everything to make sure that they had what they needed right before they start.
Boom… Boom
Dongchul’s heavy armor on top of his strong muscles made a loud thumping sound every time he took a step.
“Doesn’t it sound great. This armor was specially crafted,” Dongchul said referring to his armored suit. Jaehwang had prepared his arrows and wore his best armor as well.
“Should we get started?”
“Okay.”
They opened the door and walked outside into the cold wind blowing through the dense fog that shrouded the Japanese gathering in the distance.
[The Japanese clan gathering]
Jaehwang and Dongchul went on their way to get to the Japanese clan HQ. They encountered a lot of people walking through the crowded streets.
It looked to be a part of a town filled with low-income residents. Japan also seemed to be a place that had more cases of monsters in comparison to the countries around it.
Earthquake, Volcano Eruptions, and radioactivity pollution… After a very long time, there was a nuclear power generation accident in Fukushima that caused a really big problem. As the problem remained and grew even worse, the cases of newborn children having defects grew more rampant while the hospital rates blew through the roof. The mortality rate of infants had grown which caused the gradual migration of their own people.
They didn’t know if the Japanese politics had gotten any better but there was a big gap between the rich and the poor. Japan seemed to be slowly collapsing with all those problems. The place that it used to be no longer existed as the wrong power rose up and had gained control.
“This may be more difficult than we thought,” Dongchul said as he began to feel anxious.
“Everything will be fine. Be sure to check your headset sensitivity.”
“My headset sensitivity can’t go up anymore.”
“Don’t forget to turn on the automatic translation… if you hear something you don’t know then try not to make them angry.”
“I know, I know,” Dongchul replied as he put on a big coat. He needed a bigger one so he could wear his armor underneath it.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Dongchul walked out the door while Jaehwang quickly gave their weapons a final glance. He took his time with his inspection but then he stopped and asked a spirit a question.
—Is everything good to go?
—Yes, everything is fine.
—Okay, we have to be extremely cautious.
The spirit knew exactly where they needed to go so she took the initiative and led them there.
But she suddenly stopped Jaehwang.
—I’m worried about this.

After leaving the hotel, Dongchul began to walk towards their destination. He cut himself into a queue of people waiting in his path but he just let himself pass through them without a word. It looked like hunters were not welcomed in this place.
Tuek…
“S—sorry.”
Something has hit Dongchul’s leg and a kid quickly apologized to him. The kid saw the armor that he wore, he then took a step back in fear before he ran away.
“…”
He couldn’t imagine something like that happening in Korea. After that, he recovered his focus and resumed his mission. He then glanced to the side and saw a big luxurious limousine. The door of the limousine opened and a lady stepped out of it. Dongchul watched and wondered where could she be going but she then began to scream as if she was in trouble.
“Be quiet!”
“Somebody save me!” The lady shouted for help, hoping for someone around to help her but everyone was completely ignoring her.
“Hurry up, let’s go!”
“I’m coming! This lady is being fussy.”
One of the guys then hit the lady in the head. She lost her consciousness and was thrown back inside of the vehicle. They then looked around to see if anyone was paying attention to what happened before they drove off. They definitely kidnapped her.
“Those idiots…” Dongchul stopped walking. He thought about following the limousine to see what was going on. After thinking for a quick second, he spoke into his headset.
—Jaehwang.
—What?
—There’s something I really have to do, my part will be delayed in the plan by 10 minutes.
—Is it that important?
—Yes, very important.
Dongchul replied.
—Okay then but try not to take more than 20 minutes.
—I’ll be finished as fast as possible.
Ten minutes was already too long and another ten would be too much.

“This stupid lady wasting our time.” The guy said as he drove the limousine.
“You almost cut my hand during all that.”
“Oh yeah, sorry.” The other guy in the passenger seat replied.
They were on their way back to the Japanese clan HQ after kidnapping that woman. However… a shadow suddenly appeared in front of them.
“Hey! What are you doing! Aren’t you going to move?!”
The driver yelled after rolling down the window. He wanted to just drive past him but the limousine wouldn’t be able to move so easily since the road was quite narrow in the area they were driving in.
The unknown person just continued to stand in the way of their car. The driver then got consumed by his anger so he went out of the car to confront the person that stopped them in their tracks.
“Hey, fool!” The driver shouted as he threw a punch. Unfortunately for the driver, the mysterious man was faster with his fist.
Kwang!
“I—I…”
The driver was so surprised that he just stood there blankly and the mystery man wasn’t done yet.
Kwang!!!
“What the heck is going on!” The guy who was sitting in the passenger seat asked as he got out of the car.
Kwang!
The mysterious man then walked up and destroyed the car. Seeing this, the guy in the passenger seat pulled up a sack and tried to sneak up behind him.
Bam!
He swiftly used his sword and turned his bags into shreds.
“W—who are you?!” The kidnapper asked in fear as he stepped back.
The mysterious guy then replied to his question. “Me? I’m the guy that’s about to drive away using your car.”
“What? What is this nonsense you’re talking about!!!”
The passenger seat guy replied in anger. He got fed up so he took out his phone to call for backup but then, he noticed that the mystery man’s eyes had turned dark.
The Japanese Clan Attack, The End.
