Chapter 110 - Operation Gamer 5

The mobster took a pleasant drag on her cigarette, looking with curiosity at the young Hunter, whose real identity she would not even guess. Eun Ha had the impression that her Professor, with that rejuvenated face, had swallowed hard, but that was not possible. Hunter Shin was tough, not that type.

"Right ... Noona. Release the girl now. She didn't do anything that she said. She's just bluffing. We continue the conversation, you and me," despite the youthful face, Hunter Shin's attitude remained the same intimidating and scaring one. 

Eun Ha shook her head, cringing. Her Professor was very good at other things, but definitely not at playing a young innocent boy. 'If it were a different situation, I would hit this rude Student, he is unashamed just like Chang Mi!!!' she thought.

The woman then glanced at Eun Ha, pretending to be thoughtful. It looked like she wanted to play with both,

"I don't know, Handsome Student. I think you could be useful in so many ways… But your noona is unbearable and a loudmouth."

"Okay. Enough. He's right. Let's stop with it. I have a party to go to later. How about I tell you where I put the cameras, you collect everything, and we're done with it?" Eun Ha interrupted.

"Your arrogance doesn't really have limits, does it, 'Monster High'?" the criminal looked at the cigarette for a moment, "I wonder who you are, anyway?" and turning to her henchmen, she said, picking two of them, "You, and you, do a search for where she had access to."

Great. There were two less in the room. Now there were only two henchmen, the three prisoners and the ridiculous chief-ess in the meeting room. However, Eun Ha knew that time was running out for them. One of two things would be over soon: the cigarette or the stinging and ridiculous woman's desire to play. The fairy imagined that after the shock of seeing a young student turn into the dangerous Shin, the armed henchmen would be unpredictable.

That damn cigarette was finishing too fast!

Overcoming her own hesitation, Eun Ha felt she needed to try to cast some magic. 'Her style of magic'. But without the wand.

With the best mocking tone she could, the fairy girl replied, staring at the handcuffs on her Professor's wrists.

"Ajuhmma! Didn't you see that the young Student you were shamelessly groping for is Go Ji Hwan, son of Go Hong Gi? Hong Enterprises ring a bell for you, uh? How can you be so distracted?!"

The woman gasped at the mention of the mobster from a rival family. She started coughing and put a heart on the chest, gasping for air. Eun Ha didn't expect this to happen, but taking advantage of the moment, she thought she could intensify the moment, and made the woman's high heels break. She became unbalanced, and this caused the henchmen to be distracted, undecided on whether to help her. The surprise made the mobster chief-ess even support her body on the table. The cigarette fell from her hand onto the carpet in the meeting room, but that was not the focus now.

Eun Ha waved her hands as best she could in the direction of the handcuffs, missing her dear magic wand very much. 

The magical energy, accessed so quickly and in a disorderly manner, tingled throughout her body, causing itchiness and small shocks, which were quite unpleasant. But everyone's attention went from the coughing woman to the young student, just released from his handcuffs. They're astonished!

With an agile movement, the Hunter used the steel handcuffs to hit the face of the henchman at his side. The man was absolutely taken by surprise, and in that infinitesimal moment, the fairy Shin took the club from the man's hands as if it were the easiest thing in the world.

Eun Ha's mouth was still opening in an "O" movement watching the whole scene, when the Hunter jumped to the table that separated them. Before the henchman beside Eun Ha could threaten her again with the knife, the club had met his head as if it were a samurai sword. The girl just felt the gangster fall beside her as if jelly-made. The Hunter landed in front of Eun Ha in a not very elegant way. 

He looked at her urgently, and Eun Ha hesitated for a moment about what to do, until the Hunter yelled,

"Your wand, JUNG?!"

Eun Ha ran to the table where her purse and coat were, while the Hunter turned and prepared to face the criminal who had been without his club. The fairy apprentice grabbed her coat just as the mobster woman grabbed her by the neck, from behind. But the fairy didn't care. She had also taken self-defense classes with Officer Ji!

Her reaction to the attack certainly surprised the criminal lady, but the latter had more technique and experience than Eun Ha, in addition to being bigger, and knocked Eun Ha to the ground. The young fairy rolled to the side, using her coat in her hands to throw at the mobster's face.

This moment of distraction and confusion was enough for the fairy to use her magic to get the building's fire alarm system activated.

Using her wand again, Eun Ha pointed at the woman and conjured the first thing that came to mind. Finally, getting rid of Eun Ha's coat, the evil woman stumbled spectacularly on the wire of a slideshow equipment and fell to the floor, in a surprised and pathetic way. Her face crumpled up next to the face of Eun Ha, who had not yet stood up. Facing the criminal in surprise, the fairy can't help herself from saying,

"You should blend your foundation better, honey!" 

The furious woman still tried to grab her, but Eun Ha rolled over and stood up, fleeing in the direction of Programmer Lee. Using her wand without qualms, she freed him from his handcuffs, and it was he who prevented the mobster from grabbing Eun Ha by the hair again, with his big body.

He was furious, and grabbed the mafia woman by the neck,

"Where's my friend In Jung? Did you kill him? Did you kill him, you wench?!"

Without her henchmen to shield her, the mobster lady showed fear for the first time. Yo Sub seemed to have nothing left to lose. Eun Ha grabbed the Game Designer's arm, trying to stop him from really strangling the mobster, but she didn't have the strength to do so.

She just suddenly remembered the man who was dining, under the eyes of a woman. It was that bitch!

"Drop that monster to the police, Yo Sub! The artist In Jung is alive! I saw him on camera!"

That alone was enough for Yo Sub to drop her on the floor, coughing and cursing. Yo Sub was horrified to what he has done, but Eun Ha said,

"We need to shut down this place, Yo Sub!"

"I know very well what to do, let's go to the servers!"

The Hunter had finally gotten rid of the henchman, even though he was hurt, and the three just left the meeting room, running. It was about the moment they walked through the door that Eun Ha's magic on the Hunter was completely gone, with the end of the cigarette forgotten on the floor. Yo Sub blinked, a little stunned, when he saw a new man by his side, but asked no questions.

"Jung and Yo Sub, while you go to the servers, I'm going to get In Jang. Where did you see him, Jung? After that, go out through the emergency exits and go to the van that is parked near the cafeteria," Hunter Shin, panting, quickly planned, and they nodded.

The alarm sounded, and the sprinklers went off in the corridors, and Eun Ha hoped that in the LAN house the alarm would also work to get people to leave. But she wasn't sure, since those people were completely enslaved by the Oneirics. Luckily, it wasn't a real fire. 

Eun Ha explained quickly where she thought In Jung was, and ran with Yo Sub to the server room. Her mind was split between her concern for the Hunter, who had been left with the difficult part of facing the gang alone to rescue the other fairy, while she and the Programmer took away the Oneirics access to the real world. They should destroy the servers that contained the game the Oneirics used as a bridge to the minds of humans.

Fortunately, if there was one thing Eun Ha knew how to do well, it was destroying things.

Yo Sub entered the server room so savagely that the two technicians who were there gaped in panic. But then the young Game designer chased after them like a sumo wrestler, roaring in berserk fury, and the cowardly technicians fled screaming, terrified. The fairy locked the door to guarantee them some time before the impending arrival of more security guards, or so she thought. 

Yo Sub accessed the computer to prepare data deletion from the servers, while Eun Ha simply cast her spell on the machines, ensuring that they were beyond any possibility of data recovery. 

Hearing the mob arriving, Eun Ha opened the exit to escape. The data deletion wasn't over yet, but she used her wand one last time to cause a definite general short circuit, with all her intention. The fairy's arm even burned, and Eun Ha felt a brief throb in her chest, feeling that she had just used anchored magic, and a lot of it.

The building's lights went out completely, with a resounding noise that, to Eun Ha, sounded more like a frightening collective shriek of pain. Yo Sub and the fairy knew at that moment that they had succeeded, and smiled.

The thugs around the hall pointed to the pair, and started to chase them, but as soon as Eun Ha passed the emergency exit, she closed it shut with her magic. Yo Sub was panting, of course, as he was heavy and sedentary, but the Game Designer managed to go down the fire escape behind the fairy. They saw the van parked where the Hunter had said it would be. There were only a few meters to go. Eun Ha looked at the empty street, and the dark building,

'Where's Shin at?' Her heart sank.
