Chapter 214: The World’s Best
#1
“Huh? Did you say a person?”
“Yes, a person”
“They were supposed to be somewhere here in Korea but I couldn’t find them anywhere so it looks like I’m going to need some help.”
“Okay.”
Rumi replied and walked away. Jaehwang then leaned his head back in the helicopter seat and closed his eyes.
He was sorting out everything in his head.
Although everything seemed that it would go fine but he was still a little worried.
-Is what that guy saying really true?
-It is.
The spirit replied.
-I wish it wasn’t true.
Jaehwang said in a disappointing tone.
Until then he had been taking it all as lies. Looks like he needed to keep Baekren around to be able to complete the mission.
“We’re going to find the place in one of the three dimensions.”
“Alright. But, isn’t it going to be dangerous going to the Alousu to find the dragon? Do you think even the two of us could even stand a chance?”
Jaehwang asked.
“It’s been hundreds of years since I came to counter with it so I don’t think I could promise anything. After all of the chaos with the three worlds many things changed. But from what I already know, we should have a good chance of surviving.”
“I wish I didn’t need any help.”
“Me too. But this is the only way.”
Baekren replied.
If a situation like this came up sixty years ago then he would have been in big trouble. Going to the Alousu wasn’t going to be a problem, it was the Dakosu monsters that they had to worry about. To this day the Dakosu monsters are one of the most ruthless kind. They’re incredibly strong and fast. Fighting off just one was a very difficult challenge.
But, that wasn’t the only problem.
The number of monsters increased so they had to be prepared for more than just the Dakosu monsters.
Obviously it was not going to be an easy task.
-After we enter the dimension do you think I should make sure everything is safe at the entrance and you could call for backup?
The spirit suggested.
-Maybe. I kind of wanted to do this with the least amount of people as possible.
-Of course.
She replied.
Jaehwang didn’t like getting help from others unless it was absolutely necessary.
Gwangjae was the only other person he ever trusted. Jaehwang knew Gwanjae was powerful enough to handle high rank monsters. Besides Gwanjae, he never put much trust into any other hunter on a mission.
‘This is definitely not going to be easy.’
He was thinking of every case scenario in his head. There were so many things to worry about.
Jaehwang then opened his eyes and saw something.
He took a closer look and realized that it was Baekren’s sword.
‘Interesting…’
He thought to himself. Maybe Baekren was powerful enough for him to not worry so much.
Jaehwang then opened the window of the plan and looked out at the sky.
-Darn it! What if Baekren plans to try and attack me.
Jaehwang said after looking out of the window for a moment.
-You’re just being paranoid. Just relax.
The spirit replied.
Jaehwang then took a deep breath and looked out the window again.
-I don’t know, I think I should stay on guard just to be safe.
Jaehwang said.
-You’re not going to ask him anything about it?
-No, I’ll just see what happens and be sure to be prepared just in case.
He replied.
-Well, I think I know his family name.
-Really?
-I think so. I’ve never met them personally but I know they used to be the most powerful of all.
-What happened?
Jaehwang asked.
-I’m not really sure what it was but something happened and they had a change of destiny.
-Was it because of a specific person?
-Yes but I don’t know who.
-So, should I trust him.
-I don’t know much about them but I think you can.
The spirit said.
-So, if that’s true then the only way I can win over the dragon is with his help?
-Yes.
The spirit replied.
That meant just Jaewhang and his arrows weren’t going to be enough.
-So with the combination of both of our skills we should have a good chance in completing this mission.
-Yea.
As much as Jaehwang hated the idea of working with him he had no choice.
-Also… Isn’t he really old?
-Yes. He’s very old.
The spirit replied.
Jaehwang then went back thinking falling deep into thought.

Soon they arrived at their destination. The headquarters.
“Wheu”
Jaehwang took a deep breath as he looked around.
He closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling of finally being back. It’s been a long time since he’s been back there.
Whooshh! Click
The door opened and one of the supporting team members walked in.
“If you do everything on your own then our soldiers won’t have any work to do.”
The captain of the supporting team said as he walked towards Jaehwang.
“Really?”
“Obviously.”
The supporting team captain replied.
Next the monster research team leader got off of the helicopter and walked towards Rumi. Jaehwang wasn’t aware but something went wrong and they were panicking while preparing thoroughly the team captain had an injury from an injury on his neck. Rumi was very worried.
“Let’s all go in the headquarters and discuss everything.”
“Alright. I don’t know Jaehwang’s status well but it seems that he is capable of the mission. But, he may need a little help, if he’ll take it.”
“It’s a relief that you all were able to complete the mission and meet back here.”
The team captain said congratulating Jaehwang and the rest of the team members. Everyone had gathered up again to go over everything for the next mission.
“This time it could be a bit more of a challenge so Jaehwang may definitely need some help on this one.”
“Alright.”
Jaehwang agreed.
The World’s Best, The end.
