Chapter 34: Chapter 34

Jaehwang walked down the stairs and the three guys froze in their place before they followed him. They’ve taken the Gagseog procedure that had reborn them into God-like humans but they couldn’t understand what just happened.

Ordinary people couldn’t even imagine getting stronger through their system and even they couldn’t get their skill at a cheap price. Their parents were hunters, after all, the procedure would not even be possible without money.

They went outside to resolve the fight that they started.

“Why isn’t your friend here yet?”

“H-he’s coming soon.”

Jaehwang moved along the dirty walls at the back of university. It was filled with cigarette butts and stained with dark smoke and these was the place where the two guys knelt before him.

He grabbed a stick off of a tree that was about 1.4 meters away from his right and faced it towards them.

“…What are you doing…”

“Does it bother you?”

“N-No…”

He continued to joke around and struck one bully on his shoulder. This was the place where they would usually come to smoke. It was also the place that they used to settle their fights but they didn’t know that Jahwang had a plan for them.

Jaehwang just joked around and didn’t mean to beat them up with a stick. He just picked it up to block when one of them threw the first punch. The other one then swung his harm from the opposite side and accidentally cracked his elbows when he dodged his attack,

The struggle with Jaehwang was useless and because of his Gagseog abilities, all they could do was try. They weren’t able to sense the hint that he could put up a fight with his clever movements from the halls alone.

One could feel a burning sensation in his elbow and arm as he walked by. Jaehwang kicked the other one to the ground and he fell howling in pain. They soon had recovered so they got on their knees and begged for forgiveness. Jaehwang then asked one of them a question.

“Why have you guys been acting like jerks since this morning?”

They hesitated but then one of them started to talk as Jaehwang gave them a blank stare. These were the three guys that the spirit warned him about yesterday.

“So you guys were just jealous?”

“Yes. Were sorry.”

“…”

He listened to all the details of the story and sighed. It was a long time ago but he has experienced something like this before. It was back in middle school, he had to fight many guys of the same kind.

But the guys kneeling before him were adults and so was he.

Wasting time and energy doing this was embarrassing. The type of fighting he used was something like a stick mixed with martial arts. He didn’t want to use the stick but he decided this was a good situation to use it. He was able to overpower them and he just used a stick instead of a straight-up beating. He just aimed for their joints and if he did use his strength, he might have left their elbows dislocated. He did not intend to hurt them anyway.

He had prepared as much as 20 bowstrings when he spent his two years in Alousu. It eventually ran out so he had to take a monster’s tendon, wash it out with water, dry it in the sun and twist them with his hand so that he could use it as a bowstring. Those things were relatively fragile so he had to do it over and over again and since then, he had almost forgotten how to hold back in terms of fighting people.

He never knew the true worth of his energy skills until he leveled it up. Jaehwang was also lucky enough to learn the writing of divination.

However, the martial arts that he used should not be taken lightly. Although it helped him over power those bullies, he felt guilty towards his ancestors.

“You seem to be older than me, you should say something.”

“?”

Jaehwang started using honorifics and they looked at him with a confused expression.

“This may sound a little stupid but could we maybe just get past this and forget it?”

Eudeuk…deuk

“Eoueoug!”

Jaehwang moved their elbow and shoulder joints back into place before he used his resurrection skill to heal their damaged ligaments. That was not just something that Gagseogs could naturally do. Their hurt arms were restored as if nothing happened and they realized how lucky they were that day.

“Got it? You’ll stay quiet about it, right?”

“Yes, of course…”

They shook their heads in agreement as Jaehwang gets up and leave.

The two of them were able to realize his true talents. They shook hands with him in agreement and thanked him. He didn’t enroll just to learn how to be a healer. He was a Gagseog before he was a healer and before he became a Gagseog, he was a real martial artist.

However, after settling everything, Jaehwang still left there with a torn workout outfit. He then took it to a friend who was more than willing to get it fixed.

“Hey! Your that cool guy from earlier! Look, it’s that guy!”

The other guy that stood beside the one calling him had his arms crossed and wore an unpleasant look on his face. He then started to talk with an angry tone.

“Were you the one who hurt my brother?”

He untied his arms and made a fist with both of his hands before he walked towards Jaehwang

“Our brother is a hunter you know and today is your unlucky day.”

Jaehwang sighed and stood up to his feet. He wanted to just let it go but it looked like that hunter wouldn’t give up without a fight. The hunters here seemed to solve their problems with stupidity. The law was far and the fist was close. It would be hard for them to clearly understand the law, these guys didn’t care for anything as long as they would get their way.

“Did you buy some thread and needle?”

“I bought some.”

The person that Jaehwang went to ask for help from seemed to know the person he fought with.

“That can’t be, he never said it was an unofficial hunter.”

Maybe he was starting to like Jaehwang a little more than before.

***

“Good luck on your test!”

“Thanks!”

Jaehwang had been nice to him ever since he came into this place. The female employee had helped him for a month and even gave him a red ginseng extract as she wished him good luck on the day of the test. He held the same item in his hand as he waited at the minibus stop to get to the university.

He got on the bus and saw a few people boarding it. They greeted him with a smile on their faces before they continued to bury their heads in their notebooks. There was a fight two days ago and he hasn’t seen the three guys since then. It seemed like they’ve been avoiding Jaehwang after everything that happened.

Jaehwang sat in the very back of the bus. He looked out the window and thought back on his past month in the university. He couldn’t think if he had made any friends. He couldn’t fit into any of the groups and he was an outsider by choice since he felt awkward around the female students. Especially because all of the girls were always distracted and they kept staring at his face.

As he told to those three idiots, he just wanted to be left alone and to quietly finish his term. His intentions were to be ignored but after a while, they started to listen and gave him some space and since then, he was able to be left alone.

-I want to go there.

-Oh, okay.

He was already occupied enough with the spirit in his head. He thought that maybe because of her, he was becoming less of an outsider.

The bus then came to a stop and everyone began to get off. Everyone got off in pairs and walked ahead. However, Jaehwang was the last to get off as he looked at the giant building ahead of him.

‘Korean Hunter Secretariat Daegu District’

Each station in the city were giant buildings. This place was one of the most popular locations since it had the famous Daegu District dimension gate. However, that influence in this neighborhood had many other places like hunter related things, shopping centers, and the adult entertainment industry that crowded this place.

Jaehwang froze in his place as he looked at the giant Hunter Secretariat building before he walked in. After about ten minutes, he took the writing test for his hunter license and an old building appeared on a hung up signboard.

There was still time left for the test when he walked out of the building and there were still students gathering and chatting outside of the exam room. Jaehwang walked into the building and gave the supervisor his ID and files. Jaehwang then went out to sit after he got them checked.

He sat on a bench and took off his backpack. He looked for his exam summary notes and suddenly felt something strange. He looked beside him and saw the spirit’s child-like face. She was eating chocolate balls one by one as she stared back at him.

Despite them being in a place with so many normal people, she was just sitting there naturally and eating chocolate.

“You haven’t been caught?”

She just laughed a little and continued to eat the chocolate.

“You’re leveling up with me to help gain a little of your strength back. It’s not good for you to be in this place like this.”

“So how am I supposed to come out to eat chocolate?”

“…”

Jaehwang started to look annoyed and the spirit cleared her throat and handed him a piece of chocolate.

He realized that he might need the spirit’s help on the test. He then opened up his summary notebook to review what he had practiced. The hunter test could just be a written test but the biggest problem was the Hunter test specializing in law.

The common questions were easy but most of the useful knowledge was memorized by a face-to-face study.

He read some of the contents in his notebook and what he studied came back to him. He walked into the entrance and later he found himself standing in the exam room’s parking lot where he was spotted by a security guard. He then was escorted someone into the exam hall.

“Wow… Who is that person?”

“Isn’t that someone from the Blue Sky clan?”

He heard people talking outside.

They passed by Jaehwang as they went into the exam room. The guy walking in the front gave him an annoyed look.

“He looks strong.”

“He does.”

The spirit said in agreement to Jaehwang as she ate her chocolate. The person looked strong and his bodyguard had Mana weapons. His entire body looked muscular, he must be a part of the physical strength hunter class.

If one had him as a bodyguard then he/she would never have a problem. He seemed to be apart of the Blue Sky clan and he looked like he was the manager. He seemed to dislike the attention that he got from everyone.

“What are you looking at, loser?”

The spirit looked one more time and then went back to eating her chocolate. Jaehwang then smiled and answered him.

“Whatever.”

Going to University 3, The end.
