Chapter 144: Samjeon Church Members and the Oaks

Jaehwang put down his bow and arrow and decided to call it a day after so much practice.
“Gosh, seriously!” He couldn’t practice at all because of all the noise that the spirit was making while watching TV on the tablet.
‘I guess I’ll just go somewhere else.’ Jaehwang decided to give up on and just practice archery somewhere else. He was trying to strengthen his muscles.
Shortly, he found a new spot close by but far away enough for him to have peace and quiet. He could shoot dozens of arrows at once and the amount of strength required helped him improve his muscles a lot.
‘I think I’m really starting to get the hang of this…’
“Looks like the membership has run out.” The spirit said suddenly appearing next to him with the tablet.
“Huh?”
“The membership points”
“Didn’t I buy you some yesterday?”
“I used them all.” He saw on the tablet screen that she was about to make a payment of 50 dollars.
“Fine,” Jaehwang said and pressed the button to proceed with the payment. After the payment went through, it added up to a total of 100 dollars.
“Why is it so much?”
“These will last longer than the last ones…” The spirit replied.
Jaehwang decided to not make a big deal about it since she have helped him a lot..
“Thanks.” She said, before she went back to watch dramas on her tablet.
‘Focus… Focus…’
“This too!” The spirit said, coming back again and handing him the tablet, ruining his concentration once again.
“What is this?”
“It needs an adult confirmation.”
“….”
“Hurry! It’s important!”
“Fine.” He filled out the adult confirmation form and handed her the tablet.
“Thanks!” She replied.
The drama was rated for 19+ ages only so it required his confirmation. He immediately set his mind onto training but he couldn’t concentrate at all because he could hear the spirit laughing and giggling at the show that she was watching.
“What are you watching?” Jaehwang tried to ask her about it but she didn’t give him her attention. He then noticed sweat dripping from his face.
“It’s so hot today,” he said as he wiped the sweat away from his forehead.
Jaehwang tried to get his focus together over and over again but he couldn’t concentrate because of her. He could barely hear the sound of her laugh but it was enough to distract him. He couldn’t stop thinking about her.
‘She was very pretty…’
“No…” Jaehwang got a hold of himself and opened his status window to check his progress.

His strength was improving well and everything seemed to be better.
For the first time a while, he was finally happy that he was improving like he wanted to. But he knew he could do even better.

He was improving in all of his areas.
‘This is great news.’
Although 20 percent wasn’t too impressive, it was still an improvement that he was proud of and he wasn’t going to take it for granted. The most important thing that he had to note was to change his shooting technique.
A surprise attack had become the basis of all his attacks. Therefore, he had been looking for a new technique since the raid a few days ago. He was practicing non stop to reach his goal.
‘I have to keep going.’
After checking his progress he immediately got back to focusing on practice. He wanted his body to quickly adapt to his new technique. He already mastered the basics of all of his skills but he was aiming for more. Jaehwang continued to become impatient as he rushed to learn everything he could.
“Wheu…”
Swooshhh…
***
After finishing all of his training, he picked up a towel to wipe away all the sweat on his face before he checked his phone. Jaehwang’s phone was very small. He didn’t even have any social media apps on it. All he had was a hunter picture, National Hunter news and a search engine app.
He wasn’t into social media at all and he had always avoided it. But, he did have a few text messages.
“How annoying.” After his newly found popularity, he had gotten a ton of request for interviews but he refused them all as he continued to scroll through his phone.
“Seongbin seems to be doing well,” he said as he read a message from her.
They’ve gotten really close to each other after that raid. Ever since then, they kept in touch with each other. With Jaehwang’s help, she was able to get her first major upgrade. Before, it was difficult for her since she wasn’t in a good condition but now, she was able to get the help and the support she needed to be better than ever. .
After reading her message, he read another and he looked shocked.
“Huh?”
[We hope you will return this message to Park JangJoon in Justin Point ]
Immediately after checking the message, Jaehwang began to run as fast as he could. Park Joon was the leader of the team he was on when he was on duty in Justin Point. The message alerted him that JangJoon had been admitted into the hospital. Jaehwang quickly changed out of his training clothes and went on his way as fast as he could.

He opened the door to Park Joon’s hospital room and saw him lying down on the hospital bed.
“Park Joon.”
Jaehwang reached the hospital after running without stopping or slowing down. He saw that Park Joon looked so exhausted.
“What happened?” Jaehwang asked.
It’s been a year since Jaehwang’s fight with the Oaks in Justin Point. Honestly, he had given up on them. There wasn’t anything else he could do to stop it. He did all he could but he still felt absolutely terrible.
“There was an explosion and not many people were able to survive or make it out without any injuries. Even the military bus got completely destroyed but… The Oaks were also swept away by the explosion. Although the Oaks were gone, Justin Point was left in a terrible and unsafe condition so everyone had to escape and take shelter. Isn’t our luck the best?”
The room turned silent as Jaehwang was speechless over his terrible news.
“Did the others escape with you too?” Jaehwang asked. Park Joon then shook his head and replied,
“Unfortunately not, I escaped alone. They were with others. I haven’t been able to contact them since…”
“What?”
“Lots of people died. About 50 of our own members died.”
“….”
“Can you step out for a minute.”
“Okay.” Jaehwang and Park Joon then left the hospital room. They then went outside of the hospital building and talked. He told him all about the Justin Point’s evacuation and everything that happened from that day forward since Jaehwang left.
“What about Samjeon’s church followers?”
It had been a long time since he even thought about them. They weren’t anything nice to think about anyways.
“They had to escape too,” Park Joon replied.
The more Jaehwang thought about everything he just heard the more angrier he felt.
“I just don’t understand. If I could just catch one of the Samjeon church members that escaped that time, then I could find out more about this.”
Samjeon Church Members and the Oaks, The end.
