“Ugh.”
BAM!
The Ogre King’s head was crushed, and he staggered before collapsing onto the ground.
RUMBLE!
Jiang Chen was speechless.
The boss monster of an A-Rank Gate was a formidable opponent that even A+ Hunters found difficult to solo.
It was common practice for parties to team up and fight them together.
“Who the hell are you?”
“Just a low-ranking HSIU member.”
Siwoo strode forward and twisted Jiang Chen’s arms, snapping them.
His arms flopped around, making a crunching sound.
“Aghhhhh! Shit!”
“One more squeak out of you, and I’ll cut off your arms.”
“I don’t have that item anymore! Shit!”
“Keep talking and I’ll pull out all your teeth.”
“Groan. . . You punk. . . Just you wait.”
Jiang Chen couldn’t say anything more and just glared at Siwoo’s threat.
As expected, the head of an organization was no ordinary person.
Just looking at him, even in this unfavorable situation, he didn’t lose his nerve.
Siwoo thought about taking him back half-dead, but since he was a non-Awakener, he could die from something like cardiac arrest, so he decided to just leave.
“But the game isn’t over yet. . .”
The moment Siwoo looked away,
The icy prison holding McJester melted away in flames, and
“Whoosh!”
McJester, engulfed in flames, swooped down on Jiang Chen with blazing speed.
Siwoo was more concerned about something else than the fast movement.
‘𝘾𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙞𝙩 𝙗𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙚𝙡𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 [𝙄𝙘𝙚 𝘼𝙜𝙚]?’
It wasn’t a technique that he had used with all his might, but it wasn’t something that just anyone could escape from either.
That meant that his physical abilities and magic were that strong.
“You. . . Are you a fire-type mage?”
Siwoo asked, facing the twisted clown mask.
McJester glared at the one who asked the question, surrounded by yellow flames.
Boiling rage overflowed from his dantian and turned the surroundings into a brazier.
It was an ability that he should never use while wearing the ‘mask’, but he ended up using it because of this bastard whose name he didn’t even know.
“Heh heh. . . damn it, things are going sideways today.”
McJester muttered self-deprecatingly in a low, nervous voice.
He felt like killing everyone he saw. . .
‘𝙄𝙛 𝙖 𝙙𝙧𝙪𝙜 𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙗𝙪𝙩𝙤𝙧 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙙𝙙𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙃𝙎𝙄𝙐 𝙃𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙢𝙪𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨, 𝙞𝙩 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙚 𝙖 𝙥𝙖𝙞𝙣 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙖𝙨𝙨.’
He had no choice but to endure it.
Besides, the guy in front of him was quite strong.
He wasn’t an easy opponent to defeat while hiding his abilities.
“I guess we’ll have to stop here today. Haa, damn it, this pisses me off.”
“You can stop here, but I think I’ll have to keep going. This is also my job.”
Siwoo replied, and McJester nodded as if he knew it.
“Then you can choose one of the two.”
A blazing inferno erupted from him, engulfing the area and creating a wall of fire between Siwoo and McJester.
The heat, unlike ordinary flames, began to devour everything, consuming the mountains and forests.
And McJester threw Jiang Chen into the middle of the firestorm.
“ㅡㅡ!!”
“Either catch me or save Jiang Chen.”
Siwoo flew straight towards Jiang Chen.
Anyone other than an Awakener would be instantly burned to death if they were caught in such flames.
He built a triple-layered mana shield and wrapped it around Jiang Chen’s body before dashing out of the firestorm.
In the meantime, McJester had disappeared.
Siwoo clicked his tongue.
It would have been fine if it weren’t for the stumbling block.
He threw the unconscious Jiang Chen on the floor and made a call.
It wasn’t a fruitless endeavor, so he would be satisfied with this operation.
“Jiang Chen has been captured. Repeat, Jiang Chen has been captured.”

“. . . . . .”
“. . . . . .”
Hwang Jeong-gu and Chu Ha-min lowered their heads with sullen faces.
“You couldn’t catch a guy with one arm? Don’t go around saying that you’re my junior or my disciple.”
Siwoo continued, frowning.
“I’m sorry. . .”
“I apologize.”
Well, he understood.
As soon as Siwoo cut off the guy’s arm and went after McJester, about fifteen escapees from had jumped out of nowhere.
They were the ones who had escaped the raid, and they had coincidentally stumbled into the battle scene.
Thanks to them, the clown mask had escaped in an instant, and even after searching thoroughly, they had only managed to find his severed wrist.
“What’s the current situation?”
“It seems that the cleanup is almost done. There are still some escapees, but. . . We’ve caught Jiang Chen and his gang, the ones we were aiming for.”
“But we missed McJester.”
Siwoo retorted, sounding annoyed.
“Even so, we’ve busted a drug dealer, so he won’t be able to get drugs from anywhere else.”
“That’s good to hear.”
“What happened to Teams B and C?”
Chu Ha-min, who was standing next to him, asked.
“It seems they did well. Except for Kiryu. . . They were all annihilated.”
“That old man must have spared Kiryu on purpose.”
“Would it have been better if he had died?”
“That’s true.”
Siwoo grabbed the unconscious Jiang Chen by the collar and smiled.
“Let’s go. Time to clean up.”

「The Korean HSIU has launched a massive operation called ‘Doberman’ to crack down on and the surrounding slums in Incheon, Gyeonggi Province, and has even arrested a major Hong Kong drug dealer who was distributing drugs into Korea.」
「. . . There was cooperation from the 〈Korea Hunter Association〉 and the [Heptagram]. . . On the other hand, a large number of high-ranking government officials and military generals were caught receiving bribes in exchange for facilitating ‘s crimes. . . 」
Follow-up news reports and new information continued to emerge.
YouTube and various SNS were busy covering this issue, and as a result, the viewership of the HSIU channel continued to rise.
The scenes of raiding and fighting Awakened criminals surpassed 500 million views.
Among them, the scene of Siwoo using the [Meteor Shower] for the first time became a worldwide issue, surpassing 30 million views.
“You must be busy.”
Seigen hummed as he sipped the green tea in front of him.
“Somehow it turned out that way.”
Siwoo was the biggest contributor to this ‘Doberman’ operation.
Accordingly, upon the recommendation of Edward, Vice President of the 〈HSIU International Headquarters〉, Baek Geon-ho, Head of the 〈HSIU Korea Branch〉, and the President of the 〈Korea Hunter Association〉,
He was transferred to the 〈HSIU International Headquarters〉.
The headquarters officials who saw the video footage of this operation also unanimously approved Siwoo’s transfer.
“So are you moving abroad?”
“Not really. I plan to go back and forth. What are you planning to do from now on, old man?”
“I’m going to go back to Japan. I’ve seen my granddaughter’s face and had some fun, so I should take care of the family business.”
“Is that all?”
“Hehe. Of course, I have some personal business to attend to as well.”
Seigen replied, his eyes twinkling.
‘𝙄 𝙘𝙖𝙣 𝙖𝙡𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙮 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙮𝙖𝙠𝙪𝙯𝙖 𝙙𝙮𝙞𝙣𝙜.’
Siwoo chuckled.
“And. . . This is a gift.”
Seigen placed a wooden box that had been on the floor on the table.
The dark brown box looked simple but sturdy.
“What is this?”
“The 〈Hayakawa〉 family keeps its promises.”
Siwoo opened the lid of the box.
Inside was a thin, golden bracelet.
“It’s a magic item. I promised to give it to you if you saved Hikari.”
“Ah.”
Siwoo had completely forgotten.
Because of the [Kagutsuchi] awakening his powers, and because he had been preoccupied with other things, he had pushed it to the back of his mind.
“Wear it on your wrist.”
Siwoo obediently followed his words.
It was free, so was there any need to refuse?
【𝐈𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐢𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐈’𝐝 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐢𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐦𝐲 𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥. 𝐆𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞.】
Pre nibbled on the dumplings on the table and eyed the bracelet.
“I put it on, is that it?”
“No. Pour your mana into it with all your might.”
“. . .Hm.”
Siwoo poured mana into it as Seigen said.
But as soon as he drew mana from his dantian, the bracelet absorbed all of it.
“Huh?!”
“Don’t stop. Keep going! Keep going!”
Siwoo poured out mana from his dantian into the bracelet without stopping, as he said.
No item had ever consumed this much mana.
Siwoo continued to pour in power, thinking that the bracelet might explode.
“Ugh. . . What the hell is this!”
Even with his enormous mana pool, it was the first time he had poured out so much mana into a single item that his dantian was completely empty.
As the last drop of mana left him, Siwoo wondered if he should use a different power.
At that moment, the bracelet emitted a light, and a strange voice began to sound in his head.
「Contract complete.」
“What contract. . .?”
“Oh. Did you make a contract with the bracelet?”
“It seems so. What is this?”
“I thought it would succeed. It’s a magic item I brought with me while I was half-hearted, but it’s really something, isn’t it?”
“. . . . . .?”
This old man had given him something that wasn’t even certain.
“That’s another god of our family, Takemikazuchi.”
“Takemikazuchi?”
“He’s the god of war and lightning. He’s a representative war god of Japan. You’ve received a much better reward than you think, so don’t burden yourself with it.”
“If he is such a good god, why didn’t your family make a contract with him? Why me?”
“There hasn’t been anyone with as much mana as you yet. That’s all. That magic item doesn’t need divine power, it only wants mana.”
Siwoo was a little surprised to receive an item that was better than he had expected.
“This is really. . .”
“I won’t force you to marry my granddaughter, so just take it.”
“I understand.”
“I’m glad it worked out. Otherwise, I would have had to bring another magic item.”
“I’ll use it well.”
“Whether you do or not. I’m leaving. Don’t come out.”
Seigen got up and walked out.
A moment of silence, as if a storm had passed.
Siwoo collapsed into his seat.
“Do you still want this?”

A dimly lit room.
A man reclining in a luxurious leather chair.
It was raining outside, and thunder occasionally lit up the room.
CRASH!
Broken ceramics, tables, mood lighting, and ornaments appeared and then disappeared back into the darkness.
Knock knock knock.
Someone knocked and opened the door.
The person who entered glanced at the cluttered room and approached the man who was slumped in his chair.
“I’m back.”
At that greeting, the man’s head turned sharply.
The clown mask with its mouth split open grinned in the thunderlight.
“You’re late.”
“I’m sorry. I went to get some treatment.”
The person who answered looked at his wrist for a moment.
It was bandaged, but the blood seeping through it spoke volumes of the extent of his injury.
“Haaㅡ Shit.”
McJester threw the mask away and took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
White smoke rose to the ceiling and slowly dispersed.
“Who the hell are those bastards?”
“According to the current report, they are from the HSIU. . .”
“I know that, shit!!!”
A fiery rage filled the room, sending shivers down the other’s spine.
After a moment of silence,
“Jin-sik.”
McJester softly called out to his subordinate and secretary.
“Yes.”
Yeo Jin-sik answered flatly and bowed his head.
“That Min Siwoo kid. . . Isn’t he the one who came out of the tower that time?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“I should have caught and killed him then.”
Ryu Ji-hwan, the leader of the [Gold River Guild] and the master of , brushed back his bright yellow hair, unable to hide his murderous intent.
“Shit. . . I’ll kill anyone who gets in my way.”
He muttered as he ground out the cigarette butt on a pile of money.
