《Return of the Legendary Hunter》Chapter 29: Busan (1)
Advertisement
After Bihyung's introduction, a high school boy asked, "Are you really giving me the money?"
"Yes. You will be paid 5 million won for today's visit."
Bihyung reached into his jacket and pulled out a wad of cash. One hundred 50 thousand won bills. The four people here were each told by their respective schools and companies to visit this place and followed the agents to this building. They were told that they would be paid 5 million won for the visit on the way and became shocked. They were given different reasons but everyone's order was to follow what Bihyung tell them to do.
"Here. Take it first."
The four of them hesitantly approached him and accepted the money. Bihyung looked at them and explained today's schedule.
"We will use my yacht to go out on the sea and fish there. We'll fish and eat some fresh sushi and ramen on the yacht."
The people seemed shocked. The oldest-looking man who seemed to be his thirties bowed.
"Thank you for this opportunity. I'll enjoy it as much as I can then."
"Good. Let's play."
An owner of expensive skyscraper penthouse. It seemed like the people just figured it was a rich man's day of leisure.
"We'll be out in thirty minutes. Take a break."
Bihyung spoke and turned and signaled Woojin and Miho to follow. They walked into a room and there was a man drinking coffee on a sofa. He smiled and got up from the sofa and greeted Bihyung.
"Long time no see."
Bihyung sat down on the sofa and Woojin and Miho also sat down. The man turned to Woojin and Miho and introduced himself.
"Nice to meet you. I am Park Kwangsu."
Woojin then remembered the man. Park Kwangsu was a shapeshifter. Shapeshifters didn't have abilities like Werepeople to change themselves into animals, but they had the power of shifting themselves and other humans at will. They also had one special ability which was to sense spiritual power.
Bihyung said, "We have the bait here. If the vampires know who their targets are, they will be close. That's why we need this man."

Miho scanned Kwangsu from top to bottom.
"And who is this man?"
"He's a shapeshifter. He's sensitive to spiritual powers."
"Oh! Shapeshifter!"
Miho reacted dramatically and Woojin asked, "What's the plan?"
"It's simple. I protect the bait while you and Kwangsu pinpoint the enemy location. And when you do, you call me and we wipe them out together."
Woojin thought it was a good plan. It guaranteed the safety of these people and he was going to be able to handle the enemy without Bihyung's help if he could ambush them.
"Will do."
Bihyung turned to Kwangsu.
"Do you sense any of them yet?"
"I can't sense them in this kind of building unless they come in here."
There was no way they would break into such a building. They were trained in hunter methods. They would wait for as long as they needed, watching silently from the distance.
"You should make a move."
"Sure."
Kwangsu drank the coffee and got up from the sofa. As he was getting up, he grew much taller and changed into a more chubby man. Miho gasped in astonishment.
"Whoa! I never thought I would see a shapeshifter changing in action!"
Kwangsu grinned and went to the closet room to get changed. He soon came out with new clothes that fit his new shape.
"Let's go."
Woojin turned to Bihyung.
"I'll check on the enemy first. I'll call you when I find them."
"Sure. Be careful."
And Miho was getting ready to follow them so Woojin asked, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going with you."
"Why?"
Miho was hired to cut out memories. Other than that, she was lacking on the battlefield. Woojin's question triggered Miho.
"I can help!"
Woojin was well aware as to how helpful Miho could be. Her memory-reading ability was a useful skill. The problem was that she might be in danger in a fight.
"It's dangerous."
"Wow, I didn't expect to be underestimated like this!"
Woojin turned to Bihyung for help.
"She'll look after herself. She's good at running."
Woojin then turned to Miho.
"When a fight breaks out, get the hell out."

"Wow. I never thought a hunter would tell me in such a way. SURE! I'll run the hell out like a chicken when I need to. Don't worry."
Woojin then nodded and turned to Kwangsu who then smiled.
"Let's go now."
They took the elevator down to the underground parking lot and an agent was waiting for them.
"I'll be driving."
Kwangsu nodded and got into the front seat. Woojin and Miho took the rear seat and Miho leaned over toward Woojin and whispered, "Why aren't you getting in the front this time?"
"Because the man needs to sense the power from the front. I have to focus. Don't talk to me."
Miho was dumbfounded but Woojin ignored her and looked out the window. Kwangsu complimented them.
"I heard you are a great man."
Woojin calmly answered Kwangsu, "You have to focus. Many will die if we miss them."
Kwangsu then turned back to the front and began to focus. Miho frowned.
"Wow. That's cold."
Woojin closed his eyes. He was wondering if he could fight four Moon Knights without Bihyung's help. He had become much stronger with the Starfish Fang, but it still seemed like it would be hard for him. Woojin then looked out the window and Miho glanced at Woojin from behind.
As they drove around, Kwangsu finally spoke.
"I got'em."
The car slowed to stop but Woojin interrupted the driver.
"We should keep moving. We can't let them suspect us."
The car then moved smoothly and Kwangsu pointed to the left.
"It's that way."
"How far?"
Woojin checked and Kwangsu solemnly said, "I will need to get closer to get the accurate location."
Woojin thought for a second and asked, "Can you feel them if they are moving?"
"I can sense that much."
"So, they are not moving then?"
"No."
Woojin then turned to the driver, "Can we make a big detour?"
"Yes, sir."
The car turned around and Woojin looked out the window. It seemed like the enemy was aware of their target's information. His sister would require heavier protection at this rate. Kwangsu then sensed something and mentioned, "I think it's one of those parked cars."
They could've gotten closer to find out but they couldn't. And Woojin didn't feel the need to do so. The Moon Knights had a four-man team and they were planning to kidnap four people. They should've brought a larger vehicle.
There was one large minivan that seemed to be out of place whereas all the other cars were expensive luxury vehicles. Besides, the minivan had dark tinted windows that hid what was inside.
"We should change cars. Get us down over there and go change the car. Is that possible?"
"Of course."
They got to the point where the minivan wasn't visible anymore and Woojin got out of the car and talked to Kwangsu.
"Do you see the minivan over there?"
"Is that it?"
"We'll confirm when we get a new car by driving right next to it."
Woojin then asked another question, "Do you feel anything else from other places?"
Woojin didn't know how many teams the Moon Knights had. He remembered there were three teams. They weren't sure whether all those teams were sent or if there were only two. After a while, the agent came to them with a Range Rover. They all got into the car and slowly drove past the minivan.
"It's that car."
Woojin nodded at Kwangsu's confirmation and called Bihyung.
[Did you find it?]
"Yeah. Let's make a move."
[Good. Let's see what they do when we move to the yacht."
Woojin hung up the phone and turned to the driver.
"Can you follow them without letting them notice us?"
"You don't have to worry about that."
Wojin then turned to Kwangsu.
"We've found them so you don't have to come now."
"That's for Bihyung to decide. I'll stay for now."
Woojin didn't offer any further explanation and took out his weapon to get ready. After checking the weapons, he placed his back on the seat and closed his eyes.
All he needed to do now was to kill all the enemies. As he was preparing himself by imagining it, Miho became astonished. She had never met an expert hunter in Korea so she didn't think highly of hunters until now. She thought they weren't much compared to Avatars, but Woojin was different.
It was especially so when Woojin didn't seem to be tempted by Miho's beauty.
"It's moving."
Woojin opened his eyes. The minivan was moving.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
