Chapter 395 – Part 2 – Hunter Training Facility

As the sun set and moonlight shone in the early dawn.

Rustle-

Dozens of shadows secretly gathered under the moonlight.

“Has everyone assembled?”

At Ryu Jong-ik’s question, Kang Min-chan turned around and counted heads.

“Yes, all 30 people have gathered.”

The personnel deployed for this operation was 30 people.

It was about half the organization’s members, and all of them were hunters.

After all, it would be too dangerous to use civilians for this operation.

“Everyone has memorized the operation, right?”

The masked members all nodded in unison.

Wearing masks at night and preparing for an assault, they looked exactly like a group of assassins…

But among them, there were almost no people who had committed murder.

They had no intention of doing so either.

Revolution was simply a gathering of people who wanted to change an unjust world.

Though there were some who weren’t like that.

‘Revolution my ass. I’ll properly screw things up today.’

Park Hui-jun, who was grinding his teeth inwardly, was at the front.

He was going to take on the bait role as planned.

Of course, he would only pretend to comply on the surface.

‘I’ll have to run away at an appropriate time depending on the situation.’

He wasn’t just going to run away.

‘I’ll kill a few of those Revolution bastards while I’m at it.’

Although he was currently keeping his tail down due to the executives monitoring him, he was still a B-rank hunter.

He wasn’t in a position to be ignored like this anywhere else.

‘I can’t touch hunters stronger than me, but it’s a different story for those below them.’

Among the 30 hunters, there were about 20 hunters weaker than Park Hui-jun.

If he set his mind to it, he could kill about five people in an instant and escape.

‘I have no personal grudge. If they want to resent someone, they should blame themselves for joining this shitty organization.’

Kill five hunters weaker than himself when surveillance became lax, then escape.

That would be sufficient revenge against the organization that had pissed him off.

‘Fuck, how clean do they think they are to treat people like perverts? If there’s nowhere to relieve sexual desires, isn’t it possible to do it even by paying money?’

Not only were passing members pointing fingers at him.

His one and only younger sister treated him like vermin and didn’t even want to talk to him.

‘I’ll show you the price for pissing me off, just wait and see.’

Since he was already branded with a pervert image anyway, he had nothing to lose.

‘Let me show you how scary a guy with nothing to lose can be.’

Park Hui-jun hid his venom while maintaining an expressionless face.

Unless someone read his mind, it would be difficult to figure out his plan.

Of course, Choi Seong-min, who had read his thoughts, already knew.

‘That bastard Park Hui-jun. He’s really thinking of killing his comrades.’

Choi Seong-min clicked his tongue while looking at Park Hui-jun at the front.

Unfortunately, Park Hui-jun’s plan would end in failure.

Because he would stop it.

‘More precisely, the black mask would.’

Like Park Hui-jun, Choi Seong-min also had a plan hidden in his heart.

He absolutely had no intention of moving according to Ryu Jong-ik’s operation.

‘Of course, I need to appear to comply on the surface. That way, no matter what I do, they won’t suspect me.’

He knew Ryu Jong-ik was a good leader.

But he couldn’t agree with his ideology of trying to reform criminals.

“Seong-min, you were here.”

Do Eun-jeong came looking for Choi Seong-min, who was at the rear for operational purposes.

“Aren’t you nervous? This is my first operation, so I’m nervous as hell.”

Reading her thoughts, it seemed she had come looking for peace of mind.

“Don’t worry, Eun-jeong noona. I’m here in the back.”

“It’s reassuring when you say that.”

Though she had hunted monsters in dungeons, this was her first operation against people.

Do Eun-jeong couldn’t help but be nervous.

“Seong-min seems so calm? Like someone who’s done this kind of thing many times? Aren’t you nervous?”

“I’m nervous too, you know. This is my first time participating in such a large-scale operation.”

It wasn’t a lie.

It was his first operation and he was nervous.

However, rather than being nervous because of the operation…

‘I’m already excited thinking about cleaning up criminals.’

He meant he was excited about the upcoming trait feast.

“It’s time. Let’s carry out the operation. We’ll enter by dividing into groups. Everyone to your designated positions.”

“To positions.”

“To positions.”

At the leader’s command, the hunters moved in perfect order.

Do Eun-jeong also moved to her designated position.

She didn’t forget to wave her hand at Choi Seong-min before leaving.

“Mr. Park Hui-jun. Please take the lead.”

“…Yes.”

Park Hui-jun with a stern expression walked toward the main gate, drawing attention.

The guard who was watching saw Park Hui-jun and shouted.

“Hey! Who are you? You can’t come in here!”

Thud-!

The shouting guard was immediately hit on the back of the head and knocked unconscious.

It was Kang Min-chan’s handiwork.

“Good. Continue advancing.”

Following Ryu Jong-ik’s command, the hunters moved silently.

The dawn surprise attack had begun.

---

“Hehe, it’s started.”

A man laughed while watching the shadows moving under the moonlight.

Melvin Hernandez. No, it was Christopher Gibson.

“The plan to hit the hunter training facility at dawn is good. But…”

Christopher grinned, showing his teeth.

“You should have paid more attention to internal security.”

Christopher had recently heard that one rat had been caught.

It was a rat named Park Hui-jun.

‘I never thought Park Hui-jun would get caught…’

This was a story told by his first spy.

Park Hui-jun was the second spy he had planted.

‘Of course, he probably doesn’t think of himself as a spy.’

Strictly speaking, he wasn’t a spy yet but a reserve spy.

He had never particularly ordered him to do anything or demanded information.

‘I just introduced him to Min-cheol’s human trafficking gang.’

I just introduced him, but he fell completely into it and couldn’t get out.

That made it easy to catch his weakness.

‘Originally, I was planning to blackmail him with his prostitution videos and use him as a spy…’

The stupid guy got caught beforehand, so the plan went down the drain.

‘The first spy said someone filmed a video of him having a conversation with someone…’

It was impossible to know who he had the conversation with.

Only the first spy and Park Hui-jun knew about the human trafficking gang.

‘But the first spy couldn’t have lied either…’

Though it was puzzling, it didn’t matter.

‘If Park Hui-jun got caught, I just need to change the plan.’

The plan he changed to was this.

Driving the Revolution bastards, excluding himself, into a trap.

‘My subordinate reported that they’re all waiting with their eyes on fire right now?’

From Revolution’s perspective, they would think the hunters at the training facility would be sleeping, but far from it.

They were all waiting fully armed.

Because he had given them advance notice that an attack would come.

‘Even though they’re just F-rank trash criminals, it doesn’t matter. I’ve stationed our subordinates there.’

Christopher had planted three of his direct subordinates at the hunter training facility.

All three were excellent S-rank hunters with combat power exceeding 1.5 million.

‘They’d be shocked and terrified if they knew there were S-ranks among the F-rank criminal hunters. Hehe.’

Would they just be terrified?

They would have the rare experience of becoming souls and looking down at their own corpses.

He had ordered them to kill any Revolution member on sight.

‘Ah, except for one person.’

Hunter Choi Seong-min.

He had ordered them never to encounter that hunter with 10 million combat power.

Rather, he had threatened them not to attack but to avoid him.

‘If they want to live, they’ll avoid him on their own.’

He didn’t know how such a monster was born on a small continent like Eastland.

He had no way of knowing the purpose of joining Revolution either.

‘What’s certain is that he’s an obstacle that will interfere with my plan.’

Fortunately, since he was positioned at the rear, his subordinates wouldn’t encounter him.

‘Even if not all of them, I just need to reduce their forces to some extent. Especially the leader Ryu Jong-ik must be killed for sure.’

Complete annihilation was impossible from the start since there was someone with 10 million combat power.

This was also why he had suddenly said he would skip the operation.

‘If I encounter that hunter named Choi Seong-min, I’ll be in danger.’

That’s why he entrusted it to his S-rank subordinates.

They would be sufficient to bring back the leader’s head.

‘If I kill Ryu Jong-ik, I can absorb Revolution.’

He had finished assessing Revolution’s scale.

All that remained was to completely sweep them out.

He had already figured out through his first spy that it was a small group of only 60 people.

“Hehe, hurry up and go in. Into the trap I prepared.”

Christopher observed Revolution’s movements through binoculars.

Since he was looking down from high ground, he could clearly see how they were moving.

“They’re going in now.”

Christopher sneered while watching those entering the hunter training facility.

---

The time they broke into the hunter training facility was 3 AM.

It should have been a time when everyone was asleep.

“Uwaaahhh!”

“What, what is it?”

For some reason, the hunters at the training facility were awake.

It was enough for the Revolution members to be flustered.

‘Wa-was it a trap?’

It could only be seen as them knowing about the attack in advance.

Otherwise, dozens of hunters couldn’t have rushed out armed like that.

“Don’t retreat. The opponents are F-rank hunters! Subdue them calmly!”

Ryu Jong-ik at the front gave calm instructions.

It was truly the appearance befitting an S-rank hunter and leader of the organization.

But contrary to his appearance, he was quite flustered inside.

‘According to intelligence, this was when there would be the fewest hunters… Was it a trap?’

Ryu Jong-ik bit his lower lip lightly.

He belatedly realized there was a spy within the organization.

‘Subduing them comes first for now.’

He didn’t know who the spy was, but it was a problem to think about after sorting out the situation first.

‘Since they’re all F-rank hunters, subduing them won’t be difficult.’

At least the information about them being F-rank wouldn’t be wrong.

“Slice up those bastards!”

“Fucking bastards dare to try to attack us?”

“Do we look like pushovers to you? Fuck!”

Seeing them use vulgar language, they seemed to be criminal hunters indeed.

Soon the Revolution members and the armed F-rank hunters clashed.

Clang clang clang-

Ching ching ching-

Thud- Thud-!

“Keoheok!”

“Kreuuk!”

It was a chaotic battle.

It had to be, since the opponents were as many as 90 criminal hunters.

Three times more than the 30 Revolution members.

A battlefield was bound to form.

But the chaotic situation was gradually being sorted out.

“Ahhh, my arm!”

“Shit, fuck, my wrist is broken!”

The side being sorted out was naturally the criminal hunters.

That was because while Revolution consisted of elite members from D-rank to S-rank, the criminals were all F-rank.

Since there was a clear difference in skill, they were bound to be pushed back even with superior numbers.

“Subdue them step by step! Break them but no killing!”

Ryu Jong-ik shouted, but there was no response.

Everyone was too busy fighting to pay attention.

Park Hui-jun was equally busy.

‘Fuck, what the hell is going on?’

He thought he would just advance step by step and play the bait role, but suddenly a chaotic battle unfolded.

‘Did information really leak to these guys?’

If so, it meant there was a spy within the organization.

‘It’s not me. It’s not.’

Park Hui-jun was innocent, but he vaguely guessed.

That when the situation ended, the gazes toward him wouldn’t be kind.

That he would receive the members’ suspicion all at once.

‘Anyway, this worked out well. I need to escape quickly in this gap.’

Since it was a situation where no one would look for him even if he disappeared, now was the opportunity.

‘Before that, I need to stab a few allies and go.’

It seemed like he needed to kill about five people to relieve his anger.

The moment he drew his sword toward his allies.

Stab-

“Keoheoeoeoe…”

A red-glowing blade protruded from Park Hui-jun’s chest.

Thud-

Park Hui-jun, who fell forward, struggled to turn his head.

At least to know who had stabbed him from behind.

But he couldn’t make out the face.

The opponent was wearing a black mask.
