《Return of the Legendary Hunter》Chapter 35: Wuma (4)
Advertisement
Wuma rubbed his bald head and took a step forward. He was so enraged that his spiritual power was now visible. Two horns were forming on his head. He was ready to unleash his full power.
Woojin looked silently at Wuma with the spear in his hand. But Wuma wasn't even looking at Woojin. He was looking coldly only at Bihyung. They both took a step toward each other. Bihyung now had three Dokkebi Fire. He could always summon the element but it required time. Bihyung charged at Wuma and Wuma also moved toward Bihyung. Wuma was more powerful and he could strike down Bihyung in one strike. In contrast, Bihyung was more quick and agile which allowed him to avoid the direct hit and threw Wuma down. The problem was that even a fist that Wuma threw from the ground was dangerous enough.
Bihyung hopped back after the fourth Dokkebi Fire and moved slightly. It was done so subtly that Wuma didn't realize Woojin was now behind him. Wuma was furious. It looked like he only needed to land three strikes to kill Bihyung but he just couldn't land an attack. That's why he didn't even care about Woojin.
As Wuma charged at Bihyung, Woojin jumped. The Shadow Spider leather boots made him disappear in terms of sound and Wuma didn't even notice.
Wuma instinctively threw himself to the side as he felt the spear piercing the back of his waist. It saved him as the attack that would've spliced his spine. Instead, it only merely penetrated his left flank. Wuma felt a sharp pain and threw his fist to the back. Woojin quickly dodged but he couldn't get away from the spiritual power that followed.
Woojin was thrown way back. Wuma pulled out the spear and focused on his wound to stop the bleeding. But it didn't stop bleeding and as Wuma raised his eyebrows, Bihyung charged and struck Wuma's chin. It was enough to make Wuma's head snap back. Bihyung then flashed to the back and threw him headfirst into the ground. Wuma swung his fist aimlessly with his head stuck in the ground but Bihyung was already out of range. Woojin was already running.

"AAARGH!"
Wuma shouted angrily as he unleashed his spiritual power. The powerful wave swept through the roof, throwing everything outward and Woojin ran behind Bihyung's back to avoid being thrown. Bihyung ran up and kicked Wuma's chest but Wuma grabbed Bihyung's leg. His grip was so powerful that it crushed Bihyung's leg immediately. Wuma then pulled his fist back to land the final blow. Before he could land the blow, Woojin came out from behind Bihyung's back and thrust his spear into the open left flank. It crushed the ribs and penetrated Wuma's heart. Wuma threw the punch against Woojin instead but Bihyung kicked it up.
Woojin quickly dodged but he couldn't dodge the spiritual power. It was an Avatar's fight. He wasn't powerful enough to be in it just yet. Just a slight scratch was enough to rip the skin off his cheek. Bihyung then noticed Wuma's hand losing strength and pulled out his leg. He then rubbed the Dokkebi Fire into Wuma's wound.
Wuma couldn't stand the Dokkebi Fire exploding inside his damaged heart. All of his holes released blue flames. The body endured even the shock. Perhaps something else could be used other than blood.
Woojin saw Wuma falling back and slumped down to the ground. His wounds were healing but his face was still burning hot. Bihyung also collapsed. Fighting Wuma was an impossible task. It seemed like the wound on his leg would take time to heal.
"Who do you think sent Wuma here?"
Woojin answered the question.
"Wangjinjin."
"What?"
Bihyung hoisted his upper body up and turned to Woojin.
"She's the only one who can send Wuma here."
"First Dmitri and now Wangjinjin?"
"Yeah."
"Are we the enemy of all vampires now?"
Woojin grinned, "No. They are our enemies."
Bihyung laughed. Vampires were the most influential forces in the world. It was now obvious that all vampires were going to try to come to Korea. Bihyung mumbled, "Dammit."
"Why? Are you scared?"
Bihyung laughed and punched Woojin's shoulder with a fist.

"You're damn right I'm scared!"
Woojin didn't respond to Bihyung's joke and turned to him.
"How's your leg?"
Bihyung raised his wounded leg up.
"I probably won't be moving for about five days at least."
It was fortunate that his leg hadn't been cut off. Five days seemed pretty quick after taking that much damage.
"Dokkebis heal fast."
Woojin then turned to the sky and pulled out his phone.
[What happened?]
"That's what I want to ask. Where's Eunseo?"
[I made her fall unconscious when we got into the accident. She's with me.]
"Good. Just tell her the car slipped. If you can get the same car, don't let her realize the car was damaged."
[Yeah. I already swapped the car. How did it go there?]
Woojin then handed the phone over to Bihyung who spoke into the phone.
"I killed Wuma."
And Bihyung took the phone away from his face. Woojin could hear Beom's shouts even though he was quite far away. Woojin then got up as he had recovered quite a bit. He couldn't find any bottles to hold the blood so he just walked up to Wuma and looked down. He picked up the spears and reached into the wound to pull out the spiritual stone. It was much larger than any of the other stones he had seen. He quickly fed it to his Starfish Fang before Bihyung changed his mind. The Fang then turned dark black. Woojin clenched the Fang. His strength increased much more than expected. Intense strength grasped him and now he could even pick up a car with just his strength alone. Woojin looked dazed and Bihyung asked, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah."
Woojin then put away the Fang and saw Yeohong and the Cleaner Team coming up through the elevator. They found Wuma dead and walked to Woojin and Bihyung. Yeohong asked, "Did you two kill him?"
Woojin and Bihyung both weren't in good shape, so that's why Yeohong made the assumption. Bihyung grinned.
"Yeah. We both did it."
Wuma was a powerful being. He was so powerful that a mere hunter could not affect the outcome. But the result was there. Woojin then looked at Yeohong.
"The liter of blood is mine. Get me it in a bottle or something."
Yeohong then turned to Bihyung who nodded.
"Yeah. He's already got the stone, so give him the blood."
"Okay."
Yeohong then ordered the Cleaners and they brought out a metal case to begin extracting the blood. As Woojin waited, Yeohong shouted from behind.
"The blood only came out to two liters?"
Yeohong looked at Bihyung. He answered casually, "Yeah. I burnt the heart with Dokkebi Fire."
Yeohong seemed reluctant. Bihyung promised to give one liter to Woojin when he was getting basically nothing? Bihyung just grinned.
"I wouldn't have gotten him if it wasn't for Woojin. Wuma was strong."
Yeohong sighed and handed over the one-liter case to Woojin.
"What are you going to use it for?"
"You think I won't find any good uses for it?"
Yeohong then backed off and Woojin walked past her to go down. Bihyung shouted from behind, "Come to my office tomorrow! We'll have a drink."
Woojin waved at him and got the elevator to reach ground level. There were people getting ready. Woojin realized what Yeohong was prepared for. She even thought of getting revenge if Bihyung had died. Woojin liked Yeohong for this reason. She hadn't changed one bit.
Woojin then took a cab to Doctor Ahn's lab.
"What brings you here again?"
Doctor Ahn looked a bit better than last time and Woojin placed down his case. Doctor Ahn looked at it confusingly.
"It's Wuma's blood."
Woojin spoke and Doctor Ahn and Brunhilde's eyes grew wide in shock.
"Wuma from China?"
"Yeah. It will help you with both the Cocktail and the Avatar Project."
Doctor Ahn yelped excitedly as he held the case and Brunhilde sighed.
"He'll starve again."

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
