《The Hunter That Returned From Hell》Ch-74 Clash
Advertisement
‘There is really no point in sneaking behind your enemy if you don’t even have the control over your own Killing intent’ Kang-Ho thought.
While Kang-Ho fought the enemies in front of him his attention was always focused on the enemy hidden in the shadows, he knew the enemies he was fighting at the moment wouldn’t be able to make a single scratch in his body. The only one he should be worried about in this battle was the leader of the Choi guild. Hidden in the shadows he was waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike, so Kang-Ho focused all of his undivided attention towards him as he was unaware of the cards the man was holding in his possession.
Some time passed but the Choi guild leader still didn’t make a move so Kang-Ho decided to do something himself. Kang-Ho moved a little while fighting, now Kang-Ho’s back was facing Choi In-Kyu. After that Kang-Ho just waited for him to bite the bait.
‘Got you B***h’ Choi In-kyu inwardly, as he made his move. He wanted to kill the masked man in one shot, that was the reason why he waited for so long to attack.
Choi In-kyu suddenly jumped out of the shadow and swung his long sword towards the wide open back of Kang-Ho. As Kang-Ho was well aware of the attack that was coming towards him, he jumped and leapt out of the way.
Kang-ho thought of counter attacking after dodging the attack, but he suddenly heard a sneer coming from Choi In-Kyu’s direction. Suddenly, chills started to run down his back, he had a bad feeling. After that Kang-Ho felt something pulling his leg and he was dragged towards Choi In-Kyu.
“You think you can escape me that easily? I don’t care who sent and why they sent you but one thing is sure, you are not leaving this place in one piece. HAHAHAHAHAHA” Said Choi In-Kyu and started laughing maniacally. He retracted his left arm, and now was swinging his sword with just his right arm. It seemed like he had no problem swinging his sword with only one arm.

“Phantom Chain” Mumbled Choi In-Kyu and extended his left arm, out of thin air transparent green coloured chain came out of his hand and extended towards Kang-Ho. The chain spread towards the leg of Kang-Ho and wrapped around his ankle, after the chain attached itself to Kang-Ho Choi In-Kyu tugged the chain towards himself.
Kang-Ho tried to free himself from the chain but no matter how much he pulled it made no difference, the chain had tightly gripped around his ankle. After failing the attempt Kang-Ho swung his dagger towards the chain but no matter how much he hit the chain there were no scratches on the chain.
After dragging Kang-Ho with his chain Kang-Ho was right where Choi In-Kyu wanted him to be. Without wasting any time Choi In-Kyu swung his sword with his right hand, he used all of his power on his strike, he wanted to cut Kang-Ho in half in that one strike. Only then would his anger subdue.
“You forfeited your life right when you decided to show up on my territory. Blame yourself for being too cocky.” Said Choi In-Kyu with smug on his face. it was as if he knew that masked man will be dead with his one strike.
Kang-Ho didn’t like to have chit-chat during battle, so he just kept quiet and focused on the sword that was approaching him. Looking at the speed at which the sword was approaching Kang-Ho knew that he didn’t have the time to dodge the attack. Even though Kang-Ho was at a tough spot, he didn’t panic.
Kang-Ho rolled around with a sudden jerk, now the sword was coming for his body. After he was in position, Kang-Ho used his right hand to block the incoming sword attack. Kang-Ho managed to block the attack but unfortunately the attack was too powerful and the sword slipped over the dagger and landing straight into the shoulder of Kang-Ho.

Fortunately for Kang-Ho, he managed to slow down the sword substantially. The sword did cut Kang-Ho in the shoulder but fortunately the cut wasn’t fatal. Kang-Ho didn’t waste any time and retreated some steps back to face the enemy. Kang-Ho started to think on how he could break the chain it seemed that physical power alone wouldn’t cut the chain. If Kang-Ho didn’t find a way to counter that chain fast he would be in trouble.
“Boss is here, Boss can defeat this masked coward with the flip of his hand, Attack the masked man we can take him down easily with boss present here.” said one of the choi guild member surrounding Kang-Ho.
“ATTACK!!!!” Shouted all the Choi guild members surrounding Kang-Ho. After the battle cry it seemed like the people who were afraid of Kang-Ho until now were no longer afraid of him. They started to see Kang-Ho as a juicy piece of meat, whoever kills it first get reward.
“Pests will only get in the way.” Said Choi In-Kyu and swung his left hand around and cut everyone surrounding Kang-Ho into half. It was true horror, Choi In-Kyu managed to kill that many people with just one swing of his chain. Not all of them were killed 2-3 people were still alive, those alive were begging for mercy.
“Runaway fast if you want to live.” Said Choi In-Kyu, with an angry tone.
“Thank you, Boss Thank you.” Said the survivors and started to run away. They knew if they stayed there any longer, they would die. They all saw how the others died they didn’t even know what hit them, the chain sliced them like slicing hot knife through butter. Not one person was able to scream when they were killed with the chain.
At the moment when Choi In-Kyu swung the chain, Kang-Ho saw something that no one else could with naked eyes. Kang-Ho saw that the chain materialized through mana, and he made an estimate that Choi In-Kyu can’t make the chain longer than 2 meter as those who didn’t die were outside of 2-meter radius from him. Kang-Ho had smile of his face after knowing all the details about the skill.
Once the place was clear Choi In-Kyu walked closer to Kang-Ho, Kang-Ho didn’t walk away as he was confident that he could face any thing that came his way.
“HEAAAAYYYY” yelled Cho In-Kyu and swung his left hand towards Kang-Ho. This time the chain seemed different from when the chain captured him. the chain this time had a sharp edge like when Choi In-Kyu killed his guild members, the chain was approaching his body very fast. It seemed that Kang-Ho was done playing around.
Kang-Ho didn’t move an inch even while the chain approached him, he just stood there waiting for the chain to reach him.
Right when the chain was about to hit Kang-Ho, he swung his right hand, Kang-Ho wanted to intercept the chain on its way.
“HAHAHAHHA, You think you can block my ch…………..” Choi In-Kyu was trying to say something but he couldn’t finish the sentence because of wat he saw.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.
