Chapter 138: Nothing to Lose 3

Whoosh

A huge arrow flew in front of Mr. Song.

He quickly moved out of the way in a panic but it was too late. The arrow landed on the floor right in front of him.

Kwang!

“Oh, hi there. If you’re not coming with us to offer rice to the Buddha then please move,” said by a guy in a suit with a rude tone as he stood at the entrance.

“Hey! He won’t listen! Who is he and why is he here?!” One of them shouted.

“What’s going on? Why does he keep ignoring me? Is something wrong with his ears. You haven’t even been here for five minutes yet. Did you not know? Should I show you?”

“These kids! They’re completely useless!”

“Why is this place yours!” Shouted one of the residents.

“Ugh, this is tiresome. This has been going on for a few days now.”

“Just let it go,” someone else said. The crowd was quite big so it must have been a very expensive piece of land. It seems that he also made the others do the work in their farms.

But still, it looked like they were paying off a huge debt by helping them out. It usually happens when a farmer goes bankrupt. They would eventually borrow some money from the country and that would cause their debts to pile up until their business fails. Sadly that was a very common story.

It was a hard situation for the people in the village and hey did their best to work through it.

However, recently there’s been a strange story going around. There was something going around that there were people offering their help to the people suffering from the same problem. He wasn’t sure about what was going on. They were out on the farm at dawn working and looked as if they wanted to escape.

Apparently, they had been out there for days according to what he overheard. It seemed like they were trying to fix it up to sell it to the citizens of the mountain village.

There was no official owner yet and they were carefully calculating the exact price to sell it for. They could sell it for a good price even though they haven’t even talked with the village people.

They even got a construction team there to tear down the houses that were there.

Soon, the village started to become disordered. After he returned to the neighborhood, he heard that the construction crew started their demolition. He then heard loud shout coming from somewhere.

He came and soon saw some of the villagers being restrained at the entrance. Although he thought about going to the police to help them, he knew that it would be useless. Rather than going to the police, he decided to save them himself.

Jaehwang quickly ran towards the place where he heard the screams but the entrance was blocked. The people were trapped and whoever was responsible for it made sure that they couldn’t easily be rescued.

There was a lot of equipment on the construction site nearby but unfortunately, the equipment had been blocked off since they’ve been placed there so people wouldn’t bother it.

Jaehwang wondered how he could help those people.

“If I just blow up the entrance with an arrow then the people inside could die too...”

“We’re going to have to think of something else...” The spirit replied.

They needed to find a way to get through the entrance without using any weapons that could also harm the others being restrained inside.

“Hey! Clean up the things around here!”

“Yes, sir.” A guy in a black suit then approached them.

“Everyone, gather around.”

“Yes, sir!”

All of the workers gathered around and the guy wearing the suit then extended his hand. Jaehwang looked around and he could see the village people who were being restrained. He could clearly see that they had been beaten...

“That old guy is really annoying...”

“Ugh!” The guy in the black suit shouted in anger. He then picked up an iron pipe off of the ground and he began to walk closer towards the crowd but then...

A loud noise blasted through them and the ground began to shake, ushering the rain of arrows that fell from the sky.

Swooshh... Kwang kwang kwang!!! Kwang kwang kwang!!! Kwang kwang!!!

“Huh?! What’s going on?!”

“Ahhhh!!”

“It’s an e-earthquake!”

An ear-tearing explosion shook the ground and shortly after that, they saw a trail of red light from the sky coming towards them.

Whoosh... Boom!

It soon crashed into them, creating a yet another huge explosion.

“W-Was that a bomb?”

“What’s going on here...” The guy in the black suit said, looking around in confusion.

Suddenly, a person appeared out of nowhere. It was Jaehwang and he then patted Mr. Song on his shoulder.

“Huh?” Mr. Song turned his head and was surprised by what he saw. He couldn’t believe who he was seeing.

“Hi, granddad.”

“J-Jaehwang!” Mr. Song said in disbelief as he looked at him.

The other village people then heard them and turned their heads. Obviously, they were also surprised by what they saw.

“Huh? Jaehwang!”

“Jaehwang, you’re here!”

Every one of them could recognize him the moment they saw him. He left the village back when he went to get his hunter license and they continued to support and cheer him on since then.

The guy in the suit then looked over their way and saw Jaehwang.

“Hey! What are you doing!” He shouted.

The greeting with the village was then cut short. Jaehwang looked at the guy in the suit and said, “Why don’t you come here to see for yourself, come on.”

“Fine.” The guy in the suit answered before walking towards him with an angry expression. “Those people right there work for me. I’m in charge.”

Jaehwang then turned to Mr. Song again and asked, “What are these people doing?”

“Well... I... I...” Mr. Song couldn’t get himself together.. Jaehwang didn’t understand what was going on at all. He was wearing the Bloody Mary tiara and he was using its power to take control over the village people.

Jaehwang wanted to do the same since he also had one. He wanted to take control and get rid of the guy controlling them and his workers. But, Jaehwang didn’t want to look like a terrible person in front of all of them.

Jaehwang spoke to the guy in the suit once more and said, “What’s going on here?”

“Hm. Well...” He explained everything to Jaehwang with great detail and he even told him their plan.

“Is Choi the owner of this place?” Jaehwang asked.

“He is. He bought this land two or three years ago,” The leader answered and the village people remained quiet. He was the one who bought the land and then took control of the village.

The Korean Forest Service, the district office and the members of the national assembly all seemed to be quite aware of the situation besides the fact they did nothing to stop it. The village people felt hopeless.

“Ooh!” The guy in the suit shouted.

He then quickly looked around as if he was suddenly looking for something, he then saw the workers sitting and shouted, “Hey! What’s going on over there! Are you all resting?!”

The workers then immediately got up.

“Get back to work!”

At first, the workers looked a little angry. They looked over towards the village people with an embarrassed look on their faces as they saw Jaehwang standing there beside them. Although they didn’t really know what was going on, they had a hunch that he was a threat to them.

“Who are you?” One of the workers looked at him but he didn’t give him a reply. He could tell that he was a ruthless person. “W-Who are you?”

“This is who I am.” Jaehwang then took off his backpack and handed him a silver card. It looked like a normal card but it had a shape that he had never seen before. Little did he know it was a little bent because Jaehwang threw it in his backpack in a rush before he went here.

After he read Jaehwang’s information on the card, his legs began to feel weak.

[Jeon Jaehwang, level 6 Hunter]

The worker was shocked to see how powerful he was. He was even stronger than their boss. He couldn’t believe it.

“I-Is this real?”

The worker asked. He had never seen a license like it. He had never seen anyone so powerful. They’ve seen high ranked hunters like around the levels three and four but they haven’t encountered a level six hunter until now.

Only ten level six hunters existed in Korea. With that being said, seeing one of them was basically impossible.

“He’s a level six hunter!”

“Woah...”

All of them froze in their places. They knew that there was no way that they could go against him.

“W-What is he doing here?...” The boss said with a stutter.

“Me? I’m the owner of this mountain,” Jaehwang replied.

Nothing to Lose 3, The end.
