Chapter 397 389: Ally
?
The hunter's association was in a fluster.
The meeting with the top brass about a prophecy presented in the dreams of everyone all over the world had turned into a sight of chaos.
It had been three years since the cosmic dragon had appeared in Pantheon. One student took up its entire claw and rooted it firmly in its place. The cosmic dragon in Pantheon was unable to move against the grip of the child it had killed.
But it struggled.
And a lot broke. Many students were at the risk of death. Yet the student, Han Yu Jin kept it down. Another student, Albert Wessler had noticed that his fellow had already died, and then became a martyr by exploding Yu Jin's body on the dragon.
The dragon left a prophecy with the people and the entirety of its arm, but in return took away two souls with the brightest future.
The committee that had sat today included some related to the student too.
Behind the game developer they had brought for his expertise was the CEO of the Wessler Conglomerate and also, the strongest hunter to have ever taken a step in this world. Robert Wessler and Han Jun Ho.
"We have made a special type of nuke that can cause the same damage in a very small range. Mixing it with magic, it can produce 37 times the firepower than the body of... Han Yu Jin did. It is certain to take down Outer Gods on the level of the Cosmic Dragon."
They were all dodgy when bringing up the boy in front of his father, but it had become a unit of measure and was hard not to use since that was the most visual way of expressing firepower.
The meeting continued in full force. From killer portals to translation technologies, all kinds of breakthroughs that had been made in the last three years toward the effort came to the front.
And a peaceful solution was reached... Not.
"T-the building! It's shaking!!"
"The line look at the line!"
All the members of the hunter association were hidden beneath the tables as the entire floating Island in the skies of Washington trembled.
On the special line connected to the screens around them, the surviving drones of the association.
The otherworlders that had come along with the monster named Charlotte were on the verge of flying away.
Every. Single. Movement.
Every single movement that the white-haired woman and the red-haired man made sent shock waves rippling through the skies.
Helicopters trying to get a zoom rolled down while drones close by were crushed to bits and pieces from the sheer force of the aftermath, let alone the frontal power of the attacks.
Through their broken mics, the drones barely managed to relay some audio.
"Huh. Guess you put your back in your punches, unlike others."
"Who are you. What do you want?"
"Oh my, sorry redhead. But I already have a son so I'll have to ask you to back off."
"Hah. If you insist on playing games till the end, then I'll have to force it out of you."
The people in the association shook. All the hunters had already stepped out and were trying their best to protect the place, but just saving their own skin seemed impossible let alone that of the people in the building.
The drones' feed flickered.
It was the result of an extreme mass of magic power gathering together.
As the feed returned, Han Jun Ho had pulled his spear back and the white-haired Charlotte had concentrated all her strength in her fists.
"W-we're done for!"
"That crazy man will kill her and all of us!"
"Are you insane? She's been standing for so long against THAT Han Jun Ho! Only the greatest villain could do that and those two destroyed the entirety of the Australian continent!"
The executives all crouched and closed their eyes shut.
The two figures shot toward each other.
As if a star was formed, the skies were dyed white and an explosion followed...
But nothing ended.
Nothing shook, nothing was destroyed. After the sound of the impact, it all disappeared.
"Huh?"
"W-what?"
Slowly, one after another, the executives slowly opened their eyes and looked at the screen only to find both Charlotte and Han Jun Ho stopped in their tracks, their eyes widened to the point of popping out.
And in front of them.
Was another person with hair in streaks of white and black, horns sticking out his head, and eyes of deep amethyst.
This third... being, had stopped both the monsters.
"T-there's a third..."
"That nuke y'all made? Use it! USE IT!!"
"Even if we die from the nuke! If these three are free then the entire world will!!"
Before they could move, though, the third being pulled his hands back and winced in pain.
"Holy fuck why are you guys so strong!?" He screamed. The executives were all stunned. Another of the monsters spoke English. It was tough to believe something with horns was from their world though.
"Let's stop ok? Fighting's bad!"
"Oh! Oh! It's a voice of reason!"
"Messiah!"
The executives all cheered.
But Han Jun Ho scoffed and swung his spear at the third one. The man punched the spear and went flying before forming an arc coming back in Han Jun Ho's hands.
"What is that guy doing!!?"
"Stop him! How dare he attack our savior!?"
The 'savior' had the same thoughts.
"Why are you attacking me!?"
"Hah. Do you think I am a fool, demon? You are splitting image of that woman."
The savior and the woman looked at each other.
And the woman smiled and nodded.
"He DOES look like me, what the fuck? Who are you?"
The savior smiled.
"An ally."
The executives, Han Jun Ho, the woman, and all the other races that had come along with her tilted their heads at the words of the man.
"I am an ally of both of you. An ally..."
"Against the Outer Gods."
