Chapter 416: South Korea Again (5)

Ughh Han-Yeol wrapped his hands around his head and groaned in agony.

Meanwhile, Tayarana, Mujahid, and Mariam had no idea how they were supposed to react to the conversation between Han-Yeol and Stewart.

Tayarana initially thought she could finally brag about receiving a new class from Ra and becoming a Transcendent Master-Rank Hunter to Han-Yeol, but it turned out that whatever she wanted to say completely disappeared after hearing Han-Yeols bickering with the strange man beside him.

There were so many questions she wanted to ask that she completely forgot about her awakening as a Transcendent Master-Rank Hunter, and it was the same for the other two as well.

Lucifer?

Whats wrong with his mana? Why does it feel so sinister and evil?

I thought I had finally caught up to him He seems to have gone further away from me again

The trio let out a sigh while watching Han-Yeol continuously bicker with the man who came with him.

Huh? Why the long faces? Han-Yeol asked.

I believe it is because you are quite frustrating to watch, Han-Yeol-nim. I mean, that is how I feel right now, Steward replied with a shrug.

What did you say?!

Why? Did I say something wrong?

Shut it, punk!

Han-Yeol continued to bicker with the strange man, and the Egyptian trio instinctively knew things would be quite rowdy from now on.

***

Some time passed, and the bickering between the two slowly died down.

Stewart looked into the distance somewhere and said, Hmm It looks like you still have some work to do, Han-Yeol-nim.

Huh? What work?

There is a large group attacking a smaller group twelve kilometers east of us, and I believe one of the groups consists of subordinates of that human called Woo Han-Jong, while the others are your subordinates.

Oh right, I completely forgot about them

A lot of things have happened so far.nove(l)bi(n.)com

Han-Yeol stirred up a nationwide protest against the government and was only a few steps away from occupying the Blue House, but the First Hunter, Woo Han-Jong, suddenly appeared and ruined his plans.

Then, they ended up dueling inside an illusion barrier, and Han-Yeol almost died if it was not for Astaroth making an appearance.

After that, he barely managed to win against Woo Han-Jong, only to have him stolen from right under his nose by the madman, Dr. Santinora, who thoroughly toyed with him before disappearing along with Woo Han-Jong.

Fortunately, it all worked out in the end, as he managed to enter into a contract with two powerful rulers of the demon world.

I just started serving you, but I am already getting tired Sigh

What did you say?!

Why? Did I say something wrong?

Shut up, you little brat!

Stewart was rendered speechless when Han-Yeol called him a little brat. His height, which barely reached Han-Yeol s shoulder, was one of his biggest insecurities, and it was the one thing demons in the demon world used to tease him whenever they had the chance.

Han-Yeol smirked and flashed a haughty look as he said, Know your place, little kid.

Stewart trembled in anger. He wanted to swiftly deal with this annoying human taking a jab at his insecurity, but he was forced to swallow his anger as Lucifer personally commanded him to assist this annoying human.

The Egyptians whispered among themselves while watching the spectacle between Han-Yeol and the stranger.

Dont you think hyung-nim has become younger?

Yeah, younger in the sense that he has become childish and immature.

Then, Mariam suddenly added, He is just like you, Prince Mujahid.

Youre so mean!

The clown licked the blood off the shamshir and exclaimed, Huuu~ I will never get tired of the taste of blood!

Then, he let out a sigh and said, Sigh But killing someone with my own hands is boring Keke! Good thing I had those two to entertain me! They were the best~! The destruction they caused! The mayhem! The havoc! I wish they would paint the world red for me! Ahhh~!

Woo Han-Jongs retainers quickly surrounded the clown while he was busy squirming and rubbing his hands on his face. This was a formation Woo Han-Jong had personally developed for them when they were up against a single powerful enemy, and even a Master Rank Hunter would struggle against this formation.

I have no idea who you are, but a life for a life! You will pay with your life for killing one of our comrades!

Wooong! Woooong!

The one hundred retainers started channeling their mana in preparation to attack the clown.

The clown clicked his tongue and raised his arms in disappointment. Tsk Is this all you got?

The leader of the retainers growled in response, What did you just say?

Then, the clown grinned and said, Are you sure you dont want those other Hunters to join? I dont mind if they do, you know? The more, the merrier~ Kiki!

Ha! Ill make you regret those words. Attack!

Attack!

The retainers rushed at the clown as soon as the order was given.

Heh.

Then, the clown smirked and said, Alright, everyone~ Say cheese~

Shwaak!

***

Han-Yeol, Tayarana, Mujahid, Mariam, and Stewart took their sweet time heading east toward the Blue House as the situation did not seem to be that dire.

However, they soon realized that was not the case at all by the time they reached their destination.

The stench of blood reeked in the air as signs of destruction and thick black smoke could be seen everywhere.

W-What in the world happened here? Han-Yeol muttered in disbelief. He expected Woo Han-Jongs people and the Hunters to clash, and it was highly likely that the Hunters were going to surrender once the battle shifted against their favor.

It wasnt supposed to be this bad

Han-Yeol was initially planning to appear at the last minute and save the Hunters, but the scene that greeted him was not what he was expecting.

Huh? Why are Woo Han-Jongs people dead too?

He investigated the scene and came to the conclusion that this destruction was not caused by two large groups clashing. Being able to tell these kinds of things was not that difficult for him, thanks to his experience living as Harkan.

Then, he sensed that everyone was dead except for oneno, it was two.

I believe that fellow is the one responsible for this, Han-Yeol-nim, Stewart said while pointing in one direction.

Han-Yeol looked where he was pointing and was shocked. What?! Y-You are!

Kikiki! Do I say long time no see or we meet again so soon? Im confused~

Youre that clown!

It is an honor to be recognized by you, Lee Han-Yeol-nim!

The clown was drenched in blood, and yet he did not seem to be bothered by it as he gave an exaggerated greeting.

Then, Han-Yeol noticed that the clown was stepping on someone who was still alive.

Ughhh

The survivor was one of the Hunters who defected to Woo Han-Jongs side the moment he was offered the opportunity to be fully pardoned for joining the protest.

Ah, it is extremely rude of me to say this, but may you please give me a moment, Han-Yeol-nim? I have to wrap this up real quick, the clown said.

Thud Sukeok C-Crack! Chwiiiik!

The clown stepped on the Hunters back and started to use his shamshir like a saw as he sawed off his victims head.

Then, he picked up the head and raised it in front of his face.

Whoa! So scary~!

He flinched and pretended to be surprised before throwing the head aside as if it were a toy he had grown bored of.
