《Return of the Legendary Hunter》Chapter 63: Mirror of Heavens (2)
Advertisement
Woojin got off the car and turned to throw his EMP bomb. The bomb exploded and the cars skidded off the street. The last car that tried to fight to stay stable on the street opened its window and a hunter pulled his trigger at Woojin. In response, Woojin brought both his hands up to defend himself against the bullet and when the car came up to him, he smashed its hood.
The car was thrown up into the air and over Woojin. As for the other two cars, one smashed a pole and the other rammed into a building. Woojin then turned to move back to his hotel, but he saw someone bursting out of an overturned car door. He was the scrawny man with a big belly and long arms. Woojin looked at him and scoffed. He was Agui. He wasn't an Avatar, but an imp. Imps had too low spiritual power that didn't allow them to have their own Avatars so they had to come into the material world in their own bodies. Therefore, if they were killed it would mean the end of their life.
Agui pleaded loyalty to the humans if his hunger could be solved. Woojin cracked his neck and Agui charged at him. Imps usually did not dare to fight against Avatar if they were sensitive to spiritual power. However, Imp Agui did not have such discretion as the shock of getting his car overturned made him resort to using only his instincts.
Woojin also charged and Agui swung his long arm which Woojin dodged easily and punched it. Yet, Agui did not scream and instead he grabbed Woojin. When Agui widened his eyes, Woojin sighed. He had killed Agui in the past. Agui was a human eater.
Woojin pulled Agui off him and pushed both hands into Agui's mouth. It was so big that it allowed Woojin to shove both hands in so he could rip the mouth apart from top to bottom.

"Kyaaargh!"
Woojin then grabbed Agui's head and slammed it down on the floor multiple times. After making Agui stop moving, Woojin sighed. He then got up. He heard from Hwang that Jang Yoon was bad news, but he didn't expect Jang Yoon to do such thing as hiring Agui, a human eater, to be his guard.
Woojin then went to Jang Yoon's house. Woojin changed his cloak to a wing and flew high up into the air to jump down into the hole. As he dropped to the place where the safe was at, Jang Yoon and two men turned around.
There was no hunter here. Two men were thrown back and into the wall and when Jang Yoon turned, Woojin had already stomped on the man and punched his stomach.
"Ugh!"
If he wasn't careful, he could've killed him in that one blow. As Jang Yoon vomited everything he had eaten, Woojin grabbed his neck and threw him into the safe. Jang Yoon was then thrown to the electrified glass and was electrocuted. He then dropped to the ground while drooling unconsciously, but it didn't seem like he was dead yet. However, the damage was bad enough that he would not be able to live a normal life from now on.
Woojin crouched down in front of him and spoke.
"Run if you want to live. I will tell Mr. Sun that you hired Agui."
Jang Yoon became pale. His nerves were paralyzed so he couldn't move or make faces, but he seemed to understand what Woojin said. Woojin then jumped out from the hole.
As Woojin was running, a car came up and stopped in front of him. It was Miho.
"Why did you come back?"
"I was annoyed."
"Annoyed?"
"Yeah. The man had Agui."
Miho became surprised, "So, the one in the memory was Agui."

"Yeah."
Woojin got into the car and Miho asked, "So, what did you do?"
"I gave him a good beating and told him that I'm going tell Mr. Sun that he had Agui."
"What happens if he knows?"
"He's done doing business."
Smuggling was one thing but using Agui was another.
"Then it's over for him."
"Yeah."
Miho added, "I didn't read all of his memory, but everything I read proved that he wasn't a good man."
Woojin didn't respond as he placed his back against the seat and looked outside the window. Woojin sighed. When they got to the hotel, they woke the man up from his sleep, returned him and the car, and moved to the building roof across their hotel to fly back to their room. They didn't have to worry about Jang Yoon anymore, but they still stuck to their plan.
"Go rest."
Woojin then sat down on the sofa and Miho came up to Woojin and asked, "Are you not sleeping on the bed?"
"I have to do something."
"Then can I sleep on the bed?"
"Yeah."
Woojin laughed at Miho who seemed to be suspicious and took out the bronze mirror from his pocket. It didn't feel like Glove of Ban Gu which felt like it fit him, nor the Cloak of the Vampire Bat that tried to take away his spiritual power.
"Hm…"
Most divine objects reacted to any kind of spiritual power but this didn't respond in any way. It seemed as if there was a seal on it. Woojin then called to Miho.
"Miho."
"I knew it. You don't want me to sleep in the bed, don't you?"
"It's not that. Come here."
Miho came up to him and Woojin gave her the mirror.
"Can you read the memory of an object?"
"Yeah, but isn't that a divine object?"
"Yeah."
"I'm not sure if it's possible then."
Woojin also became concerned. There were no risks with reading the memory of an old artifact or treasure, but divine objects posed a danger if the ones related to the creation of object had higher ranks.
"Flash it. I'll wake you up if it becomes dangerous."
"Okay."
Miho then began focusing on the mirror. Woojin then began to see the memory in the mirror. He saw Jang Yoon's face for a second and was sent back. Everything turned to darkness, which seemed like it was before it was excavated. Miho also seemed to realize this and began making it go faster into the past. Nothing changed but he was able to feel that time was going back much faster. How far were they in the past? He saw a man. Woojin wasn't sure what kind of man he was, but he just guessed he was an Avatar. Then the man killed himself in front of the mirror. And it was then that Miho screamed.
"Kyaaaa!"
Woojin opened his eyes and turned to Miho. She was shivering with her body turned backward. The Mirror of Heavens was sealed. And that man was the one who had probably sealed it. Woojin grabbed her shoulder and pushed her down.
"Wake up!"
Miho shivered as if she was having a seizure and Woojin sighed. This was too much for her with her four tails.
"Go to sleep for now."
Woojin then flicked her forehead and she fainted.
He thought getting his hands on the mirror would solve everything but he didn't expect for an Avatar to seal it by killing himself.

Yin-Yang
Mages in North America seem to have it all – typically from well-off families, and able to manipulate their environment in ways most of the world would never believe. They don’t even have to bother with the mundane details of life like housework, thanks to their sensitives, who also make a useful source for extra magical energy. After all, sensitives have no use for it themselves, and if mages weren’t meant to make use of it, then the sensitives would obviously have some way to prevent that. That a mage can transform a sensitive physically, with no restrictions beyond overall mass and basic biological viability, whereas magic tends not to work directly on any other living thing, is only further proof. And look at the way they live on their own, barely a step above animals. It’s better for them to belong to a mage. Sensitives in North America live on the edge of society and survival – typically so paranoid they avoid hospitals and anything else that could lead to being tracked, many of them with little or no education and no legal identity or existence. Mages exist, and mages want sensitives for some reason, but no one ever comes back to explain what that reason is. Waiting every day for the hunters to notice them doesn’t lead to much motivation or hope for the future. And once they’re captured, they’re the property of someone with a terrifying amount of power over them. Anything is better than capture. Mages are born to be the masters, and sensitives are born victims. Or are they? Jax’s life is turned upside-down when he’s caught by the hunters and sold to a mage. Andreas is still mourning for his previous sensitive, though, unconsciously creating a difficult standard for Jax to live up to, all the more so while still struggling to come to terms with this new reality as Andreas’ sensitive. A runaway sensitive isn’t what Van expects at the mental health centre. Is this a hunter trap, set for him and the rest of the Donovan family by the hunters? The hunters would, after all, love to see them cross the line openly and finally do something they can be charged with. Either way, Miranda’s genuinely in trouble, and he can’t just abandon her to it. Snatching a sensitive out from under the hunters and hiding her is odd behaviour for a mage – but then, Catherine is an odd mage, living in disgrace in the old servants’ quarters of her grandmother’s house, responsible for cooking and housework. Lila owes Catherine her freedom; is there a way to help Catherine achieve her own, and at what price? Tension is building between traditionally-minded mages and those advocating change, and something has to break. *** Yin-Yang includes a small amount of profanity and no graphic sex or on-screen physical violence. However, sex and gender roles and relationships within the mage/sensitive subculture are non-traditional in mainstream North American terms. The key criterion in a primary relationship is not relative sex or gender, but the pairing of mage and sensitive; given the transformation of sensitives by their mages, physical sex is non-absolute for a sensitive, and gender identity can vary as in anyone else. *** *** The way mages treat sensitives is extremely varied and, in some cases is outright abusive. The struggle against that is pretty much the point of the book. It is NOT grimdark or misery-porn! However, if you will be triggered by this, please, don't read Yin-Yang! *** Complete stand-alone novel, 153K words! Also available on Scribble Hub and as a free ebook.
