Chapter 145: Samjeon Church Members and the Oaks 2

“What do you mean?”

“It’s simple, it’s actually kinda funny.”

“Funny?”

“Exactly. All of them including the Samjeon church followers were not as powerful as they seem,” Joonghwi said as he handed him a monster’s tooth that he was holding in his hand. It was something very special and it had the shape of a small cross.

“Isn’t it funny?”

“It is,” Jaehwang replied as soon as he received it.

He began to wonder about the Oaks since it seems that he didn’t know much about them. He continued to look through its center and he soon noticed that it was actually made up of three whole teeth meshed together.

Interpreting the Oaks’ language was difficult so it was impossible to know what the teeth meant but, he soon noticed the sketchy symbol that it had.

‘The god’s eye’

That had to be something that the Samjeon church followers left behind. Jaehwang took a closer look at the gift in his hand and he realized the number of Oaks that died by his hand. This looked like something that they would use right before they die.

“They are working together. The Oaks even approved of this.”

The Samjeon church members combined the Oaks’ faith with their religious dogma.

“Their religion really does come in handy.”

“What they wrote on their religious dogma was the same as the rings that they wore on their noses or ears.”

Jaehwang examined the cross. They were weaker but they were much smarter compared to the Bileons in the Alousu.

“Do you think that the humans were just as cruel to the Oaks at some point?”

“Actually, that could be true. Because of Samjeon church, the Oaks’ civilization was able to accelerate. It seems that the Oaks had to relearn a lot of modern-day skills but their territory soon became polluted with the members of the Samjeon church. Although the Oaks weren’t stronger, they were much smarter than them.”

“I see.”

If all of this was the fault of the Oaks, then he had to hurry and find them right away. He was not going to spare even just one of them. He then remembered that he had to continue his training to be able to conquer his goal.

Knock knock

There was a knock at their door and a woman then walked in.

“You have a visitor.”

A lady then followed, wearing a long violet coat. She looked to be in her early twenties. She had white skin, a high nose, deep blue eyes, and a slim face and body. She had two bodyguards behind her.

“Caroline,” Joonghwi said. “Jaehwang, this is Caroline. She is the captain of the ‘Avengers’ hunter team. I survived because of her. Caroline this is…”

“Ah, I know who this is. I’ve been hearing a lot about you these days.” Caroline said as she reached her hand towards Jaehwang to greet him. “You’re ‘Fatal’.”

“You can call me Jaehwang, please.” Jaehwang said as he shook her hand, he hated hearing the name ‘Fatal’. Caroline was supposed to be a foreigner but the way she spoke their language was perfect.

“Who’s Fatal?” Joonghwi asked. It’s been a long time since they last saw each other in the Alousu. He had no idea what Jaehwang was currently up to.

“By the way, can you sign this…” Caroline nervously asked, handing Jaehwang a piece of paper. Jaehwang then took the paper and signed it. She asked for his autograph and Joonghwi just watched them in a complete shock.

“Alright.” Jaehwang quickly signed the paper and gave it back to her as she held up a wide smile on her face.

“Thank you so much. I wanted to ask for a picture but would that be too much?”

“Yes.”

“It’s okay. I’m just so happy that I got to meet you, a level seven hunter.”

“Level 7?!” Joonghwi said in shock. “I thought you were still level 6?”

“What are you talking about? He’s level seven,” Caroline replied.

“Thank you so much again, I really appreciate it.” She said as she hugged the paper tight with a beaming smile on her face. They then heard a loud noise from the outside of their room.

“Leave me alone!”

“Just calmly move aside, please. This place is inaccessible to others.”

“I’m going to tell the public about this. If you touch me one more time, I’m going to report you!”

“This is all being recorded by a surveillance cam!”

“Security!”

“Someone help me!”

They could hear her screaming from all down the hallway. It was a reporter and she was probably there to find Jaehwang. Reporters like them were the exact reason why he even hated to go out in public.

“There’s something I’ve been wondering about. Are hunters now affiliated to groups? Or do they go by on their own?”

“They do… ”

“Hmm,” Caroline said as she scratched her head. “Actually, I came here shortly after the Samjeon church members attacked. But don’t worry, this hospital is protected by our team as well as the other powerful clans that are working with us.”

“Thank you. I was too nervous to say it before but, we can’t trust the Korean army right now,” Joonghwi said.

“It’s okay, I understand. The Samjeon church members and those in power in Korea unexpectedly are tied by a very close relationship. I live in America so Joonghwi’s advice is important. With Joonghwi’s advice and Jaehwang, we can come up with a plan to take back Justin Point.”

“Good point.”

“I have a question,” Jaehwang said.

“What is it?” Caroline replied as she asked her bodyguards to leave the room.

“Is it okay if he would stay here for a few days?”

“Huh?”

“Joonghwi is in a terrible condition right now and I’m afraid that this could be too dangerous for him. It would be safer for him to stay here for now.”

“Do you really think we should do that right now?” Joonghwi shouted.

“Yes. I think this is the best option for you to not sustain more injuries.”

“I’m sorry,” Joonghwi replied. Although he knew it was dangerous, he didn’t want to just sit back while everyone else handles it.

“I’ll make sure to get everything we’ll need,” Caroline said.

“Shouldn’t we also request for backup?” Jaehwang asked, however, Caroline nodded her head and replied,

“That would be the best strategy but I think for this plan, it’ll be best for us to hunt down the Samjeon church members on our own.”

“Then what should we use as bait?” Jaehwang asked.

“You.”

“If you agree. With skills like yours, you can surely do it, right?” Joonghwi asked and Jaehwang nodded his head.

He agreed to the plan. He was prepared for anything and besides, he was in a rush to look for the remaining survivors of the clan he joined in when he was in the Alousu.

“Great.”

That night, Jaehwang stayed at the hospital with Joonghwi and Caroline gave him a toothbrush and towel before she left.

“Wow, this is great. I love this dark color.” Joonghwi said, pointing about the tablet Caroline had given him. Neither Joonghwi or Jaehwang had nothing to do with the tablet but they still appreciated the thought.

“Your really popular now. Even someone like Caroline is a fan of you…”

“I don’t care for any of it at all.”

“What” Did you see her? You’re not interested at all?”

“Not interested.”

“Wow. remember when Mingyeon would always glance at you…” Joonghwi said, thinking of the old days when they were all in a clan together. It wasn’t just Mingyeon who seemed interested in Jaehwang, all the girls in the clan were clearly into him as well. Despite that, Jaehwang didn’t care at any of it.

“Stop talking about unnecessary things. There’s something I need to ask you.” Jaehwang said, staring out of the window.

“What is it?”

“Do you trust Caroline?” Jaehwang asked and Joonghw then tilted his head and replied,

“Why do you ask? Does she seem weird?”

“She doesn’t,” Jaehwang simply replied.

“Why would you ask that question if she doesn’t seem suspicious at all.”

“I just wanted to be sure,” Jaehwang replied.

The sun went down and soon, it was 9 PM. Jaehwang turned off the lights and lied down on the guest bed on the side of the hospital room. Later that night, Joonghwi opened his eyes as he woke up. Not knowing what time it was, he noticed that Jaehwang’s eyes weren’t even closed and he was just staring blankly at the ceiling in the darkness. Joonghwi tried to think about what he was doing but he soon gave up and went back to sleep.

“Should I be concerned about him?”
