-Location : Conference Hall Of The Association-
Jinhyuk , Seol-ah and Sumi just reached the Conference Hall as they got out of there car. They entered the cold environment of the Auditorium .
"I have to meet my guild members . I will see you later" said Sumi
"Go on ahead . Remember to come back in the evening" said Jinhyuk
"Got it"
Sumi left towards her guild area . Jinhyuk said
"The Conference is about to begin . Let's go"
"Alright"
They both went towards the place which had their guild names . The conference started after about 10 minutes . The organiser of the event , The President of the American Hunters Association went towards the mic as he spoke
"WELCOME ALL OF YOU TO THE INTERNATIONAL GUILD CONFERENCE. WE ARE GATHERED HERE TODAY TO DISCUSS SOME IMPORTANT MATTERS RELATED TO THE HUNTER SYSTEM . FIRST , I WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS ABOUT THE INCREASE IN GATE OCCURRENCE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD MAINLY IN SPECIFIC LOCATIONS SUCH AS USA , CHINA , SOUTH KOREA , JAPAN , BRITAIN . THESE APPERANCES WAS RECORDED FROM LAST FEW MONTHS . THE RESEARCH TEAM FOUND THAT THESE LOCATION IS HAVING AN EXCESS AMOUNT OF MANA CONCENTRATION MAINLY SOUTH KOREA "
An hunter raised his hand . He was the chinese S-Ranker and one of the strongest hunters in the world Lee Yuan .
"Does this mean that Korea has high concentration of mana ?" (Chinese Hunter , Lee Yuan [S-Rank])
"IT'S QUITE POSSIBLE . THE MANA FOUND NEAR KOREA IS NOT ONLY ABUNDANT BUT ALSO DENSE"
" I have another question " said Lee Yuan
"PLEASE GO ON"
"I would like to ask Korean Hunters for their view" said Lee Yuan
"MR . SUNG , DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA ABOUT THE CAUSE ?"
"It would be lying if I said I have but I have to say one thing . The concentration density of mana in Korea is probably due to the uncleared S-Rank gate in the Jeju Island . The area near Jeju Island is currently blocked but mana can seep through"
"THAT'S A GOOD POINT MR. SUNG "
Another Hunter from America raised her hand . She was the vice-guildmaster of America's First Guild Mary Brown .
"I have a question" (Vice-GuildMaster of America's First , Mary Brown [S-Rank])
"PLEASE GO AHEAD MS.BROWN"
"I would like to ask that why hasn't the S-Rank Gate cleared yet in Jeju Island ?"
"Already 3 attempts have been done to clear the gate but all failed . Korea has lost 3 of our S-Rank Hunter during the second and the third raid . The gate is currently under survillance of Korean Military" replied Jinhyuk ( he had studied about Korea's current situation in the world during his flight)
"SORRY EVERYONE BUT WE HAVE TO END OUR DISCUSSION ABOUT THE FIRST TOPIC HERE . WE SHOULD HEAD TOWARDS THE SECOND POINT . WE ALL KNOW THAT EVIL HUNTERS HAVE FORMED A GROUP 'THE DEMONIC HUMAN ORGANIZATION' WHO BELIEVE THAT THEY WILL SUMMON DEVILS FROM HELL TO GRANT THEMSELVES WITH TREMENDOUS POWER . THE DEMONIC HUMANS HAVE SPREAD THERE INFLUENCE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD IN EVERY COUNTRY . WE ARE ALWAYS TRYING TO ELIMINATE THE EXISTENCE BUT CONTINOUSLY FAILING . ONLY KOREA AND CHINA WERE SUCCESSFUL IN ERADICATION OF THE DEMONIC HUMANS . THEY WERE ERADICATED IN CHINA WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM BUT KOREA HAD TO FACE A DEMON FROM THE 5TH HELL DURING THERE ATTACK . FORTUNATELY , KOREA'S S-RANK HUNTER MR.SUNG JINHYUK WAS ABLE TO DEFEAT THE DEMON . BUT TODAY THE REASON FOR OUR MEETING IS TO DISCUSS ABOUT THE METHODS TO DEAL WITH THE DEMONIC HUMANS ?"
Many people raised there hand and suggessted their thoughts and the meeting or conference continued under the vision of the whole world .
-4 Hours Later-
The meeting has finally ended . Many hunters started leaving the hall among them were Jinhyuk and Seol-ah . Jinhyuk exited the venue as he yawned a little and said
"It was such a tiring meeting"
"I am surprised you maintained your composure there and actually acted smartly" said Seol-ah
"Yeah , 4 hours of continuous acting really tires me off"
Two people with atleast 7 bodyguards came towards Jinhyuk . It was the Chinese S-Ranker Lee Yuan
"Hello Sung Jinhyuk . I am S-Rank Hunter of China. My name is Lee Yuan . Its nice to meet you"
"Its nice to meet you too"
"Did you understand the influence of the conference on the whole world ?" said Lee Yuan
"Certainly but some part ideas and decisions are worse "
"You are correct , it seems Korea is not filled with only idiots " said Lee Yuan ( mischeavous look on his face , eyes glowing yellow in response of mana in the body)
"It seems you are right . China is also not filled with all arrogant bastards" said Jinhyuk (eyes glowing blue with a grin on his face)
"You are quite interesting . Until next time"
"Yeah , you too"
Lee Yuan left as Sumi and her vice guildmaster came towards them . Sumi came and gave Jinhyuk a big hug as she said
"Meet my little brother , Vice-GuildMaster"
"Nice to meet You . I am Mary Brown . The Vice-GuildMaster of 'America's First' guild"
"Nice to meet You too . I am Sung Jinhyuk . GuildMaster of Blade Guild"
"Are you Sumi's brother ?"
"Yeah , I want to ask you something"
"Please tell me"
"Is it possible to meet your guildmaster today evening ?"
"Yes , its possible . Please come to the Guild at 6:00 pm. Sumi will bring you"
"Sumi , let's go" said Jinhyuk
"Okay" said Sumi
They left as Mary went towards her car . Jinhyuk was tired so they directly went to the hotel . They all went to there respective rooms as Sumi went with Jinhyuk . It was afternoon so its was hot outside . Jinhyuk turned on the ac in the hall as he sat down on the sofa . He opened his shirt and kept in on the handle . Sumi saw all these and was angry.
"Is this how you stay in Korea ?"
"Yeah . Any problem ?"
" No no . But it seems I have to treat you well b.r.o.t.h.e.r ? Said Sumi with an expression that scared Jinhyuk since he was child.
"Sorry sorry" said Jinhyuk as he took his shirt and rushed towards the bathroom . After about 30 minutes , he came back taking a shower and wearing new clothes . He came and sat beside Sumi who was watching TV .
"Do you want a drink ?" Sumi asked
"It would be nice" replied Jinhyuk
Sumi brought 2 drinks from the freezer and gave one to Jinhyuk as she sat beside him
"So , today you are to visit my guildmaster , isn't it ?"
"Yeah"
"I request you please be polite"
"Well I plan to be polite in the beginning but the rest will depend on him"
"You and your stupid principles"
"Hehe"
At that moment the door bell rang . Sumi opened it and it was Seol-ah .
"Let's go for lunch" said Seol-ah as Sumi opened the door
"Alright . Bro let's go have lunch" said Sumi
"Okay" said Jinhyuk
They all went down to have lunch . They gossiped during lunch and enjoyed their meal
-2 hours Later-
It was now 5 P.M. and the three of them were heading out for Sumi's guild . They exited the hotel and got into the car the hotel arranged for them . It took them 30 minutes to reach the guild . It was a huge building taller than Jinhyuk's Guild. They entered the guild building and went to the reception . Sumi belonged to this guild so everyone knows her . The receptionist saw her and said
"Good Evening , Sumi . The GuildMaster is waiting for you in the office "
"Good Evening Carol. Jinhyuk let me introduce you . This here is Caroline Smith. She is this guild's receptionist and one of my friends . And this man here is my little brother Sung Jinhyuk and his guild's vice master Cha Seol-ah"
"Good Evening Ms . Smith . Its nice to meet you" said Jinhyuk
"Good Evening Mr. Sung . You must be Sumi's younger brother . She also nags about you"
"Carol Stop it" said Sumi (slightly embarrased)
"We should head towards the guildmasters office" said Jinhyuk
"Right . Lets go" said Sumi
Jinhyuk and the others headed towards Guildmaster's office . They reached there and opened the door as Sumi knocked .
"Come in" a deep voice said
They entered and saw that a man was sitting on a chair behind a table . His face seems gentle , mood fresh but Jinhyuk could feel the slight bloodlust he was emitting . Jinhyuk saw that the vice guildmaster was standing next to him. Sumi went and stood beside the vice guildmaster while Jinhyuk and Seol-ah stood at their places . Jinhyuk sat on one of the chairs .
"Good evening . I am Sung Jinhyuk , Korean S-Rank Hunter"
"Good evening . I am Steven Marker , American S-Rank Hunter and GuildMaster of America's First"
"Now that introduction is over . I will get straight to the point "
"Please go ahead"
"I want to take Sumi back to Korea with me tomorrow . So , I want her to leave the guild"
"I decline" said Steven as he lit a cigar on one end of his mouth
"And the reason ?"
"First , Sumi has already signed a contract with us , breaching that would come with a heavy compensation . Second , I will not let Sumi leave my guild because I don't trust you and Third , Sumi is now my property , nobody will interfere with her even her brother "
"Oh , that's a long speech . The money is not a problem . The second problem is upto you because I don't trust you either and third point should be my say because I am her brother "
"That is not how things work . You see , I will tell you frankly . You are weak and Sumi is mine . I am using her as a toy perfectly well . She is still useful" said Steven
This revelation shocked everyone . Even Jinhyuk and Sumi except the Vice GuildMaster .
"GuildMaster , what do you mean ?" said Sumi
"I mean exactly what I said . You are my toy and whoever comes in my way will be crushed" said Steven with a happy expression
"Did you just call my sister a "Toy" ?" a cold and hard voice came from Jinhyuk's mouth . His eyes were covered , jaws hard .
"That's right . She was useful these last months and she will be useful for some more time . Then you can take her , if she still remains alive that is " said Steven
"GuildMaster , w-what are you saying ?" asked Sumi (shocked , can believe her ears)
"Shut up" said Steven (almost screaming)
" Are you scolding my sister ?" said Jinhyuk (a smile spreading on his face)
"You got a problem . I can do whatever I want with my property . Like this for example" Steven said as he raised his sword and was about to cut Sumi but suddenly Jinhyuk came in between and blocked the sword with his finger .
"Move" said Steven as he released an outburst of aura which supressed everyone but Jinhyuk .
"You do whatever you want with things you own right ? But that applies to everyone else but my sister . Because she is my sister" said Jinhyuk as he released his own aura supressing Steven's .
"W-W-What… but H-How ?" said Steven with a scared look
"This guild was named America's First guild . The biggest guild in America . I will burn it to ashes today ." said Jinhyuk with a cold expression .
"M-Mary stop him" said Steven as he saw Jinhyuk coming towards him .
Jinhyuk was approching him but in the middle came Mary Brown. She raised her sword towards Jinhyuk and said
"Take one more step and you are dead"
Jinhyuk raised his hand towards Mary as his expression remained stoic and his hand was starting to cover with aura
-Ti-ting
-[Skill : Commander's Authority (EX)] activated
Jinhyuk raised her with his power and slammed her on the ground knocking her unconcious . He started coming towards Steven again
"You shouldve seen whom you are insulting"
Jinhyuk kicked him and he went flying breaking the wall of the building as Steven flew away. Jinhyuk jumped off the building but he was able to move and fly freely in air . He went towards the place where Steven crashed and saw that he was buried under the rubbles which he successfully removed . He saw Jinhyuk as he retreated . He was now less scared as he fumed with anger . He used levitation to rise up in the air . Jinhyuk felt a little suspicious on him using levitation . Jinhyuk quickly came down grabbed Steven by his face and crashed him through a tower from top to bottom .
Steven got up as he rushed outside , Jinhyuk followed him . Steven went up once again as he raised his hand as he said
"Black Flames Of Destruction"
A huge flame rushed towards Jinhyuk which he dodged but the city was destroyed . Jinhyuk also raised his hand
-Ti-ting
-[Skill : HellFlame(EX)] activated
Jinhyuk fired up bluish purple flame which destroyed the other half of the city . Till this time the city went to panic . They knew the dangers when two S-Ranks are fighting . 2 news helicopters rised up in the sky to capture the fight . Steven rushed towards Jinhyuk from the front as he vanished just before contact with Jinhyuk and came from behind as he stabbed with his sword . Jinhyuk moved his head without looking back as he kicked on Steven's chest and send him flying .
Steven got buried beneath the rubbles as he laid . Jinhyuk standing on the air just above him . Suddenly , a golden aura covered the entire area and there was a bright light coming from where Steven laid . The rubbles rised up in the air as he threw them . Steven came out of the smoke and light . His body was covered in an golden armor . His eyes became gold colour , his hair turned into bright golden white . His armor had a strange mark on its chest . It was an angel with 6 wings drawn .
"Spiritual Body Manifestation" said Steven
Jinhyuk slowly descended down . Steven looked at him and raised his hand as a golden aura covered it and Jinhyuk felt an attraction towards Steven . Jinhyuk was surprised at first but then he smiled which made Steven infuriated . Jinhyuk also raised his hand as a blue aura covered it .
-Ti-ting
-[Skill : Commander's Authority (EX)] activated
Jinhyuk applied opposite pressure on him as the attraction reduced on Jinhyuk but Steven was feeling an intense amount of pressure . Jinhyuk's face was slowly turning from smile to cold and non-emotional .
Steven escaped as he went towards an open space and stood there . He used another skill and hundreds of golden swords covered the area pointing towards Jinhyuk .
"Die" screamed Steven as he released the swords .
Jinhyuk saw the swords approaching but stood unfazed . With a swipe of his hand , he destroyed all the swords in a matter of seconds . Steven was now not only shocked but scared . Jinhyuk looked at him with dark , angry , glowing eyes as he raised his hand up .
-Ti-ting
-[Skill : Mind Sword(SSS)] activated
Jinhyuk's surroundings were filled with thousands of swords . He waved his hand and all swords pointed towards Steven .
"You have commited a very heavy crime of using my sister like a toy . You have to pay for it ." said Jinhyuk
He released all of his swords towards Steven . After the hit , dust and smoke covered the entire area .
After it was settled , everyone saw that the place on which Steven was standing formed a huge crater . Steven was lying on the middle with many swords piercing his body .
Jinhyuk slowly descended down and landed near Steven . He was heavily injured yet alive showing his immense durability . Jinhyuk transferred all the swords back to his mind realm and crouched . He placed one hand on Steven's chest and supplied his mana as the place glowed green . After about 5 minutes , Steven opened his eyes gasping as he sat up . He saw Jinhyuk as he sat there with a furrowed face .
" I am leaving you this time because of my sympathy . But remember not to use anyone from today as your personal object . Cancel my sister's guild registration and I will take her to Korea and remember if you ever tried something like this once again 'I will Kill You' . Understood ?" said Jinhyuk
Steven wasn't in the condition to say anything . He just nodded his head and put it down . Jinhyuk came out of the crater as he saw 2 news helicopters standing there . He stopped and looked at them
" Mr. Sung , can you please tell us the reason of fight ?" asked one reporter
" Did you people record the whole fight ?" asked Jinhyuk
" Actually we didn't record it but telecasted it "
" Hah , What can I even expect ?"
" Can you please answer my question ?"
" To answer you shortly , He got what he deserved . I have taught him a little lesson . Tell the world that Steven Marker is still alive if they think that he's dead . I have nothing more to say . Thank You"
"Thank You very much for the information Mr. Sung"
Jinhyuk overtook them and went forward . He was moving forward as he saw his sister and Seol-ah rushing towards the crater . They saw Jinhyuk and stopped on their tracks . Jinhyuk also stopped . Sumi slowly walked towards Jinhyuk and stood in front of him . Jinhyuk tried to flash a smile a her but stopped after looking at his sister's expression .
Sumi's hand raised and she placed a slap on Jinhyuk's face . Jinhyuk's face displaced a bit but when he placed his hand on the location of contact and stood up , he saw his sister's face . She was sad , tears streaming down her face as she wrapped her arms around Jinhyuk and gave him a hug , she then mumbled
"Thank You Little Brother"
