'That's it! It's a basilisk! According to what I've read, it can turn his enemies into stone through eye contact!' Kenji seems to realize what kind of creature the boss is.
'Does that mean, I've turned into stone? How am I gonna get back now' Kenji grumbles in his mind. Unknown to him, he was fortunate that the Boss was a low-level Basilisk compared to the high ones, so within just a few hours, he should be able to move at least a finger.
Another good thing was the time difference between an A-rank and the real world outside. So a week inside will be a day outside.
'This is the first time, I actually struggle.' Since he was just drowning in acid, Kenji decided to pass time by thinking about everything he had ever done since he came from this world.
'Now that I think about it, I definitely should have spent some time basking in the sun. I was too short-sighted that there are actually beings stronger than me out there, like the Vessels of the Monarchs and Rulers, not to mention, the Monarchs and Rulers themselves.' From this point, Kenji started pointing out every mistake he did since he was reborn.
Soon, 5 hours have passed, and Kenji has already a change of mind. From now on, he'll start training and giving himself time basking in the sun.
Then, he also has to keep in mind about his weakness in magic and the red sun. As for the Kryptonite, maybe that thing will not exist in this world, so Kenji can rest assured, although he still has to watch out for some rocks that have the same effects as Kryptonite out there.
We'll never know.
Since 5 hours has passed, Kenji could already move his left arm and he could already feel his sense of touch coming back to him, so he could feel the slimy thing enveloping his whole body.
But Kenji doesn't mind this, he endured more than this during world war 2. He even tried to drink his own piss when he was stuck in a forest without food or drinks.
Not only that, but he also ate raw flesh of snakes and chickens, and he even ate bugs.
Kenji used his moving arm to slap himself. He doesn't want to remember every suffering he endured back then.
'Once I could move my head, I'll use my beams to kill this Basilisk.'
Kenji said to himself. Once he's out here, he could finally get out of here.
While Kenji was waiting for his body to move again, Kanae already arrived at Korean Hunters Association and currently waiting in the guest room while sipping on her tea.
Soon, the door opens and the Go GunHee the chairman of the Korean Hunters Association, walks inside. Gunhee was a muscular old man with gray hair, greenish-gray eyes, and numerous scars on his body. While he was wearing a three-piece suit.
Kanae stands up to greet him but was only met with a warm smile of his and a fluent Japanese accent, shocking Kanae.
"Please, no need to be formal. Anyway, My name is Go Gun-Hee. I assume that you're Tawata Kanae, an S-rank from Japan and also the lover of the National Hunter Akano Kenji."
Once having said that, Gun-Hee gestures for her to sit back on the couch, while he also did the same and sat.
Kanae recovered from her shock and nodded at him seriously and then she sat.
"Tawata-san, I know you don't like formal things, so let's get to the point of our meeting. I agree for you to participate in the Jeju Island S-rank gate but I have a request before you go." Gun-Hee immediately agreed with her, which shocked Kanae a bit, and knew that nothing is free in this world, and she was right when she heard his last sentence.
Kanae was ready to burst out of here if the old man requests her something strange or perverted. Only Kenji has the privilege to access her body.
"What is it?" Kanae muttered while coldly glaring at Gun-Hee as if saying 'If you request something strange, I'll cut you into pieces!', making him gulp in fear. Not because she was strong but because of the man behind her.
He's not confident he could win against that guy even though he is a Vessel of a Ruler.
But deep inside, he knew that Kenji is definitely involved in Monarchs and Rulers.
He already has suspicions that he might be a vessel of the Dragon Monarch, but he quickly erased that off, since if he is the vessel of him then he should be able to command Kamish instead of killing him, and also because his powers and abilities aren't related to dragons except for his overwhelming strength.
"Please. Don't look at me like that, I mean you no harm. My request was just before you go, I hope that you could convince Kenji to have a meeting with me, I tried to arrange a meeting with him but it seems like he was too busy since I haven't received any response from him."
Gun-Hee said sheepishly while scratching the back of his head.
'More like too busy cuddling with me' Kanae chuckled in her mind after she heard what he said. Then she sighed in relief because she thought that this meeting might get bloody, but it was just her thinking too much.
She then nodded at him, "Sure, I'll do that, but don't blame me if he refused."
Gun-Hee nodded at her, "Of course! I just want him to be informed that I want to meet him."
Kanae nodded at his words and after a few minutes of chat, they both said farewell to each other before Kanae went outside, missing the loving look of Gun-Hee.
'Take care of your mother for me, Kanae-chan.' Gun-Hee smiled sadly before bowing his head while sitting on the sofa.
Back to Kenji.
Kenji could already feel his left leg and half of his body and face.
'Just a little bit more.' Kenji mused to himself in his mind.
'I hope I could arrive there in time.'
Kenji was really excited at the thought of meeting another disaster like Kamish.
During his fight with Kamish, he felt his blood boiling, that his enemy could fight with him without bursting into blood mist.
Even though he was holding back, but it was just a little bit unlike when he fights others, he has to hold back a lot.
