Chapter 121: Wrath: Four Red Gates

Momoka miscalculated to think the other swords weren’t as important as the others.

The Dual Swords especially got made from Nullifier by matching the Rare Mana characteristics of the two Spheres.

The sword that Momoka didn’t pick up was the one that gave Ji-woo the ability to open the dimension of space. That was why he could appear in the blink of an eye without any sign of running or jumping. Even though the distance to change places in an instant wasn’t far, it was sufficient in combat. The only drawback was that the ability couldn’t get used in a row. There was a cool down to be able to use it again.

Momoka should have disarmed both weapons regardless of the direct impact of one of the Dual Swords. Well, in the end, it took his life. Even if the two swords got taken from Ji-woo’s hands, he still had no chance of winning.

Ji-woo was at his pinnacle. It didn’t have any downsides at all, even though the power got used by force.

He looked around and then saw Momoka’s head on the ground. Not long after, he floated again like before. The surface trembled again, and the debris rose into the air. A gust of wind raged around the area.

Teng, Teng–

The Dual Swords fell to the ground along with the debris. After them, Ji-woo was the last one that came down to the soil, kneeling. His eyes got reverted to normal and were no longer dark blue colored ones.

Hosh, Hosh–

Ji-woo was breathing heavily. He was sweating all over his body. Everything that happened could not get said to be his doing, but he was aware of what had happened.

It was the first time he got possessed by the Nullifier. His cursed soul should have neither ego nor the ability to take over the body.

‘Is it because I’m on the verge of death?’

Ji-woo got up, still gasping for air. He glanced at the Dungeon Bead that Momoka had dropped while contemplating his next move.

If he used that item, Momoka’s unraveled body and head would come out with him. That was the only way out since he wasn’t the one who killed the Dungeon Owner. It was a different story if the Dungeon Bead didn’t exist. Then, he would be able to get out in a few moments after the Dungeon Owner and the creature’s killer also died.

He turned and looked at the Dual Swords. He raised both his hands and put his palms forward.

“Long time no see.”

He smiled subtly.

“Diffusal Blade and Shadow Blade, return!”

Zip, Zip–

The Dual Swords disappeared into the air. Ji-woo then went to retrieve the Dungeon Bead and went to find the Spatial Bag he had thrown earlier.

After some time, Ji-woo came out of the dungeon, and he saw Momoka’s body and head not far from his position. It was a really awful sight. However, he had gotten used to it. He was considering whether to leave it or to clean it up.

Suddenly, before he could decide what to do with the woman’s body and head, his breath hitched, and he fell to the ground. He groaned in pain while holding his left chest.

His body instantly shrunk and was as skinny as bones. His clothes became too big, and the weights loosened too. In that instant, he immediately fell unconscious on the spot without knowing what was going on.

When he was in pain earlier, Ji-woo had time to conclude that it happened because his true strength got forced to perfection before the time came. It was why he got that backlash probably. And it caused him to doubt whether the peak power had really returned or was it just that one time.

Meanwhile, hundreds of kilometers from Jiri mountain, there were dangers that the hunters and the Hunters Association were unaware of it.

Seoul, Mapo district.

A sparkle of Mana fluctuation had come into sight amid large crowds and in an urban area. Several people noticed it immediately.

“Th-That…, isn’t that the sign of a Portal Gate that usually gets reported on tv?”

“That s-seems true.”

“We h-have to run from here.”

“Wait.”

“There’s no wait. RUN! NOW!”

The people ran screaming and banging on local doors or walls along the way. The panic soon turned into chaos and caused riots in the streets. The crowd was jostling away from where the Portal Gate would appear.

Mana Impact was not a trivial matter. There were cases where ordinary humans died because of it.

Luckily, there were some people who could still think a little calmer and called the police and the Hunter’s Association about the incident.

The police and the Hunters Association responded quickly and did so according to the procedure.

However, unexpectedly, incidents like the one in Mapo district also occurred in three other areas. It caused the Hunters Association to get baffled by the sudden turn of events.

Inevitably, Chief Lee immediately mobilized all personnel in his division to go down to the field to monitor the situation. What they needed to pay attention to was the possibility of it turning into a Red Gate.

That the four points were in four districts at once, which meant they were close to commoners. The threat of injuries increased dramatically than usual.

Chief Lee only took about 12 minutes to get to the Jongno district because it was not far from Seoul. Everything was under control now, and the police have also brought order to the crowds crammed into the streets.

Yet, it was not that simple.

Chief Lee’s face twitched when he saw the Mana fluctuation in front of him. It was true that a Portal Gate appeared, but the problem was, it would soon turn into a Red Gate.

“Bring my gear in the car here. You all need to change gears too.

“And how are things in the other three districts?”

“Don’t know yet, Chief. We’re still trying to reach them now.”

Soon, the Mana density grew thicker, and the size increased as well.

Chief Lee clicked his tongue when he saw that. Now, he could predict what they would deal with later. And with a heavy heart, he took a deep breath.

“Tell the police to evacuate people out of the capital city of Seoul. And also ask the army to put a blockade in this district. I don’t want any commoners within a kilometer radius.”

The personnel knew the meaning behind Chief Lee’s orders. They saw the Portal Gate, which was about to turn into the Red Gate. Its size was a radius of 4 meters. It was practically equivalent to tier-4. And that meant the creatures that would come out were high-grade ones.

Other low-ranked hunters and possibly B-rank hunters wouldn’t be able to deal with those creatures unless they moved in a team of 10 to 20 hunters of equal rank. Only then did they have a chance to fight.

Before long, the news reached Chairman Yu’s ears. However, the report stated it was more dangerous than just a tier-4 equivalent of a Red Gate.

Four districts, four Red Gates. And on top of that, all of them were equivalent to a tier-4 Portal Gate, meaning it would be the high-grade creatures they would face later on. The roles of A-rank and S-rank hunters were needed there. As for the Apex-rank, Hyun-bin. Chairman Yu was still considering where to put South Korea’s strongest hunter in such a pressed condition.

The situation was more complicated than the previous 20 Red Gate cases. The four districts got located around the city of Seoul. Undoubtedly, Seoul would get isolated from the outside when the soldiers put up a blockade on the four districts.

For safe evacuation, the Hunters Association, soldiers, and police had to transport people to the borders of the capital city of Seoul in order to reach other areas.

That was a difficult thing considering Seoul had a population of around 9 million people. If only one Red Gate appeared, Chairman Yu wouldn’t have bothered about it. However, in reality, there were four, and it was clear that the creatures they would face were on par with their high-ranking hunters.

And a fight that was definitely inevitable would cause environmental damage. If the evacuation was not timely and the hunters failed to contain the high-level creatures. It got predestined that the victims suffered by South Korea would exceed the Mapo incident not long ago.

Chairman Yu immediately rushed over and mobilized all his members until they almost emptied their headquarters building.

The guilds that got contacted were also immediately moved, especially those based in Seoul.

On the other hand, it benefited the hunters even though the four Red Gates appeared in the middle of each district, causing chaos. It was because they would automatically get to the scene faster than usual.

Chairman Yu departed in the helicopter they had purchased from the Portal Gate’s sales revenue after deducting the costs for construction repairs and expenses for the victims of the Portal Gate disaster.

He boarded with three other hunters in it. He massaged his temples on the way.

“Has South Korea provoked God’s wrath to get hit by this disaster in a row?”
