Chapter 107: Not Getting the Answers

Ji-woo exited the Hunters Association building, and just as he wanted to go to the bus stop. He saw Dal-soo getting out of the car and walking toward him. He frowned, and with his icy cold gaze, he opened his mouth first in a slightly irritated tone.

“I really mean what I said before. It seems like if there is no blood, no one would believe me.”

Dal-soo closed his eyes then bowed in front of Ji-woo. “I apologize for the sudden visit. But, I have my reasons. If you will allow me to explain.” He slightly acknowledged Ji-woo’s strength. Even though he had not convinced fully, he didn’t want to make the other person emotional, and a fight broke out. After all, in a hunter environment, only power had the right to dictate the attitude of others.

Ji-woo sighed sharply and walked to the car. Dal-soo’s appearance would undoubtedly have attracted the attention of many hunters around the place. He didn’t want any unnecessary attention to come to him even though he had already started showing who he was. It needed to get done sequentially and not instantly revealed to the public. Not before his mother and sister had special protection that he designed later in the future.

Dal-soo followed closely behind. He knew what he was doing was bound to annoy the other party. But, he had no choice. It was the perfect place to test whether Ji-woo could get talked to or not. And if a fight were to happen, at least a public place would attract people. It would make other hunters aware of the threat a Ji-woo poses to their existence.

Chairman Yu still had no info about Ji-woo. It was because Dal-soo was still withholding his intelligence and would only send it 24 hours later. If within 24 hours he still didn’t know what Ji-woo’s goal was and he got killed, then that information would reach Chairman Yu by itself.

Ji-woo and Dal-soo didn’t say anything in the car. Even when they reached their destination and got out of the vehicle, the atmosphere was still solemn. Earlier, Ji-woo took out the Spatial Bag from his duffel bag and used it while leaving the duffel bag in the car.

“Tier-3 Portal Gate?”

Ji-woo thought he was familiar with the Portal Gate but couldn’t remember what made him feel that way. Throwing that aside, he turned and faced Dal-soo.

“Now, what do you want to talk to me about? I clearly said before not to meddle in my business.”

Dal-soo remained silent for a moment and looked at Ji-woo. He sensed how terrifying Ji-woo’s gaze was now looking at him. If there was even the slightest mistake, his head was sure it wouldn’t be in its place anymore.

However, he steeled his heart and boldly asked for Ji-woo’s little understanding of his questions.

“I want to ask you a few questions, and I know that I can’t force an answer if you don’t want to.”

Ji-woo shifted his face between the tier-3 Portal Gate behind him and Dal-soo. He chuckled.

“Heh. Want to bribe me with that Portal Gate to let you question me? You’re too brave.”

A disappointment appeared on Dal-soo’s face. What else could he do if the other party didn’t want to? He could only consider it a failure and hope Ji-woo didn’t get offended by his ways.

“I accept it. Not a bad idea either. Alright, you can ask me anything with a limited amount of time. Better hurry before I change my mind.”

There was no reason to turn down such an offer. It was better than being bribed with money alone because Ji-woo needed Magic Stones and Magic Crystals more than that. In addition, he also lacked the Spheres. So, money was worth nothing more than a Portal Gate to him.

Meanwhile, Dal-soo got flustered at those words. He thought he would get rejected. Why did it seem so easy? There was no debate or displeasure from the other side. But, he didn’t waste such an opportunity and woke up from his shock, immediately asking a question.

“Why did you become an E-rank hunter when your strength is definitely on par with S-rank?”

“I don’t know. Maybe there’s something wrong with the evaluation device.”

“How could that be?”

Ji-woo raised his hand and gestured for Dal-soo to pause his questioning for a moment.

“That’s the answer. Accept it or not, that’s your business. If I say skip it, then pass it. If I say ABCD, it’s ABCD. Don’t ask a similar question just to find out more about it.

“Next.”

Dal-soo helplessly complied with it. He then took a deep breath.

“Do you not have Mana, or do you have a magic item that can cover it. So, other hunters don’t feel it?”

“Amusing. But, pass. Next.”

Dal-soo got an unclear answer and gritted his teeth.

“Why did you join the Demigod guild?”

“I just want to know how the hunter environment works. Also, I am indebted to a D-rank hunter from the Demigod guild.

“But, that debt was paid off at once when I saved Team 3 from the massacre. So now, I have no thoughts of staying in the guild.”

Dal-soo didn’t think much about Ji-woo wanting to leave the Demigod guild.

“Who is the hunter?”

“The late Hwang Eun-bi. You must know her if you dig up a little information about me in the guild. You can easily find out about her relationship with me. Next, Last question.”

“What exactly is your goal?”

Ji-woo definitely wouldn’t tell the truth. “No need to worry. I have no intention of going against all of you hunters. I just want to enter the Portal Gate. Wouldn’t it be great if every Portal Gate was closed and you guys didn’t lose a single life? I’m not interfering with your business either because I didn’t steal the guild property.”

“Perhaps. But, there are some hunters who are not happy about that. For them, the way to become strong is to loot dungeons. So Portal Gates are important to them, regardless of whether that means they hope Portal Gates will continue to exist in this world. And make humanity miserable.”

“Well, fair enough. But that’s none of my business. If I want to enter my own Portal Gate, then no one will be able to stop me. Even if it means spilling the blood of those who want to mess with me.”

Dal-soo shivered at those words because Ji-woo emphasized them when he said them. Ji-woo smiled but not in a joking way.

“In simple words. If you don’t mess with me, we’re good.”

Ji-woo turned and walked toward the tier-3 Portal Gate, leaving Dal-soo behind as he digested the answer.

Zap, Zap–

Zip, Zip–

Ji-woo looked through the dungeon’s surroundings. It was a wetland but had lots of tall trees, like in a swamp.

He took out a magic leather armor from his Spatial Bag and put it on. He honestly didn’t like getting wet. But, it couldn’t be helped. He himself couldn’t guess the dungeon environment of the Portal Gate. Especially with an unprepared event like this, there wasn’t much that he could do.

He also needed to take into account the weights that were on his wrists and ankles, which now had reached a total of 400 kg. If he wasn’t careful, he could get into trouble in battle if something unexpected happened.

Ji-woo found two Obelisk Spheres after walking for a while on the wet grassy ground. It had been a long time since he had obtained a Sphere when he entered the Portal Gate and explored various dungeons.

‘So far, no creatures have been seen. And I didn’t find any Magic Crystals or Magic Stones. These two Spheres are all I got.’

Suddenly, he heard the sound of bones cracking nearby. He then looked around, and there were bone creatures emerging from the wet ground. Their appearance was exactly like a human skeleton but with light armor covering some parts of the bone, such as the chest and waist. Moss also covered some sections of the bone. It reinforced the wet bone impression of the creatures.

Not only that, but the human skeleton creatures also had their own weapons of the pure wooden spear. There were ten of them against Ji-woo.

The skeletons took the initiative to attack first to control the rhythm of the fight. Their movements, however, weren’t fast enough to make Ji-woo let go of the four weights.

Ji-woo jumped up and kicked the skeleton in the head, crushing its bones. However, the remaining bones of the body that were still intact could still move and throw the wooden spear at him.

He dodged the throw and wasted no time striking another skeleton with his elbow. This time, he actually smashed all the bones so as not to let it move again.

The other skeletons thrust the wooden spears continuously. The attacks forced Ji-woo to back away until his shoulders hit a tall tree. And the branches of the tree tied him to the trunk, stopping his movement.

Hahaha!

“Bingo!”

Ji-woo heard a familiar voice and saw where it came from. There was a human figure who did not have a left hand.

“Jung Tae-ha!!?”
