Wandering in Omniverse

Ch 42 – Inside the Red Gate (2)



Park Hee-Jin's eyes went round in confusion.

'She still doesn't get it even with that massive hint?'

Jason patted Jin-Woo's shoulder and explained to her.

"Miss, if we move into the forest then we'll only have to worry about bears."

"…Ah!"

Only then did Park Hee-Jin understand their intention.

'Why haven't I thought about that….?'

Park Hee-Jin became ashamed about shouting at Jin-Woo just now.

Her head dropped low, even the skin of her neck reddening up from embarrassment.

Jin-Woo continued to click his tongue.

Jason saw this and shook his head with a smile. 'He is still a child from the heart.'

Jason then saw everyone's complexion and whispered to Jin-Woo.

"Hey do something about the coldness or we've to carry these followers."

Only then did Jin-Woo realize that they were shivering.

"Fuu…."

Jin-Woo spat out a long groan and summoned his Store. He bought fur coats for all of them.

*Poof*

Six coats and Six pairs of boots suddenly popped up in front of his eyes. And of course, the eyes of all four people, excluding Jin-Woo and Jason, all grew super-wide.

"Heok?!"

"W-what the heck?! Was that separate space magic?!"

Park Hee-Jin was taken aback, too, and she hurriedly raised her head to look at Jin-Woo.

Not caring whether they were shocked or not, Jin-Woo spoke to them disinterestedly.

"Put them on."

He finished speaking and reached down to grab the closest fur coat, but then,

Han Song-Yi suddenly grasped his sleeve.

'…..?'

When their gazes met, Han Song-Yi asked him while looking rather scared and confused.

"A-ahjussi, just what's going on with you? You managed to catch that arrow, and now, you used some strange magic to take these clothes out, too."

Jin-Woo frowned as it wouldn't take a genius to figure out that, he'd be swarmed by the endless streams of questions and get irritated to no end.

'Right, let's use this chance to clearly draw the line.'

Jin-Woo raised his voice and spoke in a firm voice.

"Han Song-Yi, I brought you here with me, so I will take full responsibility and protect you. However…"

Jin-Woo's voice became colder next.

"….Don't ask me about anything."

Jin-Woo then swept his gaze against Park Hee-Jin as well as other Hunters tagging along.

"The same goes for the rest of you. Do not ask me anything, and do not demand anything from me."

He didn't stop there, though.

"If you don't like it, then you can just leave now. I won't stop you."

The two male Hunters originally didn't choose to follow Jin-Woo, but only tagged along because of the rank B Park Hee-Jin. They alternated their gazes between the fur coats and Jin-Woo, before hurriedly shaking their heads.

They quickly wore the fur coats but before they could rest, another problem came looking for them.

"It, it's the bear!"

"It's the Ice Bear!"

An Ice Bear that had picked up on the scents of humans was slowly trudging towards the group.

*Growl*

The Ice Bear bared its fangs, transparent-like-ice, and slowly raised its massive frame on its hind legs. Its huge and hulking figure completely filled up the Hunters' vision!

"Ah…."

*ROAR!!*

It roared out furiously, the ground seemingly quaking under its might!

All the Hunters, excluding Jin-Woo and Jason, all froze stiff on the spot after hearing the ice Bear's roar.

Park Hee-Jin's expression crumpled unsightly.

'Oh, so we only need to be mindful of Ice Bears, was it?!'

Sensing the approaching danger to the group, Park Hee-Jin stepped out in front of the group and shouted out.

"I'll draw its attention towards me, so everyone must… Kyah?!"

The scruff of Park Hee-Jin's neck was yanked back by a considerable force, and she had to backstep several times to make sure that she didn't end up on her butt.

After somehow regaining her balance, she raised her head only to find Jason standing before her.

"Hey, what were you doing just now?!"

Jason's eyes flashed red as he pointed at Park Hee-Jin. "Let me make myself clear. Except for my brother, nobody will be allowed to kill a single monster from now on."

"Hah?!"

Park Hee-Jin couldn't hide her astonishment.

She was about to open her mouth to say something but she then saw Jason's cold eyes and closed her mouth.

"It's all yours now."

"Thanks, Hyung-nim."

Jin-Woo walked towards the bear.

*Roar!*

The Ice Bear swung its telephone-pole-thick front arm towards Jin-Woo like a streak of lightning.

*Swish-!!*

However, the attack only swiped at the empty air.

Jin-Woo was already above the Ice Bear's head.

Before the Ice Bear could lift its head up, Jin-Woo punched with all his might right in the middle of the monster's forehead.

*Kaboom!!*

The head of the Ice Bear slammed down on the snowy ground with an explosive force.

Its skull was completely obliterated; with its limp tongue hanging outside the slack maw, the Ice Bear stopped moving completely.

"Good Job!" Jason praised him with a thumbs-up.

"You… you, just what are you??"

The brothers heard that trembling voice and looked behind him, only to spot four speechless faces staring back at him.

Jin-Woo sighed and repeated. "I told you, I'll not tolerate anyone asking me questions. If you're unhappy with my methods, then…."

Jin-Woo pointed his finger in the direction of Kim Chul's team. "You can always go that way."

Only then did Park Hee-Jin regain her senses, and her facial expression changed.

"You think I'll leave your side after seeing how you one-punched that Ice Bear??"

The group continued to move forward. Whenever they met an Ice Bear, Jin-Woo quickly took care of it.

And without anyone realizing it, Jason converted those dead ones into Shadow soldiers.

He had also placed a shadow soldier on Kim Chul and whenever they hunted monsters and moved forward, he went to that place and got more shadow soldiers.

Jason had gotten a little more than fifty soldiers in those three days which also included some Hyakkis. Those bastards saw him and wanted to run away.

Jason didn't want his plan to fail so he hunted them.

He also followed Jin-Woo when he massacred the Ice Bears and destroyed their caves. He was very impressed by Igris's skills. And that guy hadn't even recovered his original strength.

Jin-Woo killed fifty Ice Bears but was able to add only fifteen of them to his army. The remaining ones went into Jason's army.
