My Range is One Million-Chapter 148 - Revealing the Truth
Chapter 148: Revealing the Truth
“Not yet.”
Just then a red light exploded all over the place.
Swooosh… Swooshh… Swoosh… Swoooshh!!
One… Two… Four… Eight… Ten… Twenty…
A trail of white light began to shine through out of Jaehwang towards up into the sky. The light reached up to the highest floor. It was the shape of a human.
They were wearing black leather armor with a matching black helmet. From their shoulders to their waist they were wearing an arrow holster filled with arrows as well as one in their right hand.
The person was wearing a hood and a long cape that blew in the wind. He lined up behind him along with ten others.
“They’ve answered my call.”
About twenty archers stood behind him in black leather armor. Jaehwang called his family for backup.
“W-What is this?”
Caroline said in shock. Obviously she never expected Jaehwang to actually answer her question. He was clearly up for quiet the match.
“Let’s begin the hunt.”
“Yes!”
Jaehwang’s summoned people shouted and prepared their arrows.
“A-Attack!”
Caroline shouted a bit nervously. However, she knew that she couldn’t stand a chance against Jaehwang and his army of people.
Swoosh! Pang! Swoosh Pang!
Jaehwang’s family begin to shoot their arrows!
Arrows were flying in every direction. No one was safe.
“Good job! Keep it up!”
Caroline’s face turned pale in fright as she watched them.
However, this was all due to her mistake in the first place. Maybe if she knew about his secret army then she would have never asked any questions.
They were going after them as if they were hunting.
Pang!
The arrows shot through the air at the speed of light.
Pong! Pong! Pong!
A end a giant shadow passed by them… One of the enemy members then fell dead onto the ground.
It was time.
The moment one of them disappeared the enemy’s side felt a fatal empty feeling.
Pang!
They hunted another enemy. The attacks were very overwhelming.
Whiiiiii… Tak… Tak… Tak
As they continued they felt a sensation of power go through them motivating them more than the last time.
[Group Power Arrow]
For thousands of years they’ve defeated enemies together.
-As usual, the energy consumption is more consistent than usual.
Jaehwang said as he noticed he was running out of energy.
In order to summon even on person it would take 200 points of his energy. When it was just Jaehwang fighting it would only take 5 points at the most. He couldn’t ignore the energy consumption rate.
As he summoned a total of 20 people the energy consumption was very tiresome. By healing himself a bit with a little of what he had left he was able to push through but that didn’t solve the problem for him entirely.
Of course he was happy with everyone he had summoned as they were doing a really good job.
At first when he summoned them he was having second thoughts knowing how much it would take. Especially for twenty people. A better number could have been 10 people but he wanted this to be a real match.
The result was very satisfying. He would be able to level up later and his skills would increase.
Juuk! Juk! Juk!
Each of them launched dozens of arrows into the sky at a time.
Caroline kept silent as she was still speechless. Was it too overwhelming? No. Was it slaughter? Execution? No… It was just hunting. Just as they said before they began, they were here to hunt.
‘They all can’t be level 7 hunters…’
Caroline thought in disbelief.
Of course all of them weren’t even close to level 7.
They were as powerful as a level 7 hunter when they fought together but they were not as strong separately.
Their attacking skills were as strong as a wild animal but their battle intelligence was lacking. But, they were still doing pretty good.
‘We have to escape!’
Caroline then immediately begin to quietly sneak away.
She knew there was no way they could defeat all of them so her best choice was to escape. Although he henchmen were still trying to fight them off Caroline had to time to save them.
However, she was too late..
One of the enemies noticed she was trying to escape.
“Where are you going? We have business to finish here.”
She then gathered both of her hands into a fist and threw a punch before even looking to see who it was.
Pong pong pong!!!
She used both her hands and her right leg to punch and kick him in the face. However, he then fought back and punched her to the floor of the rooftop that they were all fighting on top of.
Caroline was then extremely injured.
He arms, legs and the back of her head was bleeding.
One of the Jaehwang’s fighters then prepare to finish her off…
“Y-You can’t do this…”
Just then a guy stood in front of her to try and stop them.
He then kneeled to speak to her and said,
“Do you want to end this struggling?”
Caroline then could not feel any pain anymore but instead felt a cold feeling.
“You were trying to escape, right? Go ahead then.”
“.…”
Although Caroline’s arms and legs were broken but she still tried to escape despite the struggle. Jaehwang then knew what was the right thing to do.
‘Quick healing’
Jaehwang then put his hand over her injured arms and legs and the bleeding instantly stopped.
“I can’t let you die yet. I still have a lot of questions to ask.”
“Try not to lose conscious.”
Deukk…
They then heard a loud engine noise from the bottom of the building.
“Huh…”
Jaehwang stood up and looked towards the door of the hospital and saw a car. Whoever was in it seemed to be breaking into the hospital.
“Finish taking care of that, I’ll go see what’s going on down there.”
Jaehwang said to the spirit.
***
“Relax.”
“This will be quick.”
He said as he stabbed a begin to stab a knife into the abdomen.
“Ahhh!”
Caroline screamed in pain.
He continued to stab the knife in even more.
“…Just die already.”
“Is there anything you would like to say?”
He asked but Caroline just tightly closed her eyes with no answer. Although she still wasn’t answering he would just heal her and start it all over again. Even it she wanted to die she couldn’t. Her limbs were still slightly broken but her ankles were tied to a tree and she was hanging upside down.
“You don’t want to play 20 questions?”
“….”
….
“Ahhrghhhh!”
He stabbed her with the knife again.
“N-No.”
Jehwang then continued the torture.
“Let’s try to play it just once.”
He insisted while holding the knife.
“It’ll be easy.”
Jaehwang looked at her toes and could feel that her soul was trying to escape her. Because he used the healing skill she wasn’t going to die so he wasn’t concerned about that. Anyone else would have surrendered by now but she didn’t plan to.
Although she was defenseless and could end the torture anytime by agreeing to talk, she swore to herself that she wouldn’t reveal anything no matter how intense the torture was.
“Come on. Tell me everything.”
Even though he tried to behave as if he wasn’t going to give up either, she knew he would spare her eventually.
“S-Spare me, please. Only then will I tell you everything. Even if I have to become your slave. Please…”
She begged as she hang upside down from her injured feet and legs. Her beautiful face was covered in blood.
“Talk.”
Jaehwang was determined not to give up on why he was doing that in the first place.
***
Pong…
Jaehwang stabbed the knife into her again. She seemed to be on the verge of losing conscious.
“Wheu…”
Jaehwang then untied her and placed her on the floor. He wiped the blood off of he face and took a deep breath of relief when he was sure that she was still alive.
“Are you okay?”
“Yea.”
She finally stopped bleeding and was starting to feel better already.
Although Jaehwang didn’t get all of the information he needed she told him all that she knew so he was able to let her go.
“Seriously, that’s all I know.”
She was originally born in the Alousu as a member of the Samjeon church. Since the day she was born she possessed exceptional talent and received specialized spy training. She used her skills to sneak her into a position in the national hunter position.
They had a plan to destroy Jaehwang and other hunters. She was even taught spells to help with their scheme. She was specially picked as the only person who was right for the job.
“Baekrin”
That was his name.
He taught her all sorts of spells. The spells that were taught her were meant to be powerful enough to compete against any hunter, even a high level ranked hunter. Her magic improved a lot and she was very power and prepared but Jaehwang’s call for backup caught her off guard.
“He said that it was just a test…”
Even Caroline didn’t know the full plan…”
“Baekrin…”
Jaehwang said while thinking out loud.
Revealing the Truth, The end.
