My Range is One Million

Chapter 127 - Panhandlers 2

Seongbin stood still and stared at Jaehwang for a moment. Although she was relieved, she couldn't believe that he would agree to her idea so easily even if it was obvious that even he was completely worn out.

"Thanks." She hesitated a little but she soon expressed her gratitude, however, that wasn't all.

"Also, I know we're tired and all but I don't think we can just stop here. I want to contribute as much as I can to this raid," Seongbin declared. Jaehwang looked a little confused for a moment and it seems like he just shrugged Seongbin's idea off.

"What did you say about what we've gathered so far?" Jaehwang asked in a low voice. Seongbin thought for a quick second and replied,

"About twenty percent of our goal, but I think we can get at least ten percent more."

For their safety, Jaehwang wasn't sure if it was much of a good idea or not.

—I don't know about this.

—It does sound quite promising.

It was a sudden suggestion but she seemed to be sure about it. Jaehwang thought that she did it for the sake of her pride and she didn't want him to pity her. He then remembered the past where he felt the same thing and he didn't want her to feel the same way.

He noticed that she had the same cold gaze that he had developed to protect his own pride in the past.

—Isn't it a good idea?

The spirit asked.

—She has great skills…

They purposely pushed their limits. A raid won't usually demand this kind of effort but he ignored those boundaries as he moved on. He knew that time would pass and it would end better than what anyone had expected.

He came to a conclusion and he chose to trust her as well as her abilities because even though her leg wasn't in good condition, she still supported their team beyond his expectations.

The skill status window then showed up, revealing his skills' current condition.

Skill Status: Jeon Jaehwang

Effects:

Archery skill: All areas increased by two percent

???

(Energy shortage)

Current energy: 500 — 498

The spirit had already helped him a lot of times before but he and his skills were not as effective as they should. Time passed by and Jaehwang started to get worried as soon as a few people began to follow his lead.

(If he can't improve his energy, he won't be able to level up.)

—Looks like I have no other choice.

—I'm not sure what else to do either.

Jaehwang thought about it for a moment.

—Hey

—What is it?

—You've already caught way more than ten, why do you need to catch more?

They've been hunting monsters non-stop ever since this early morning.

—Well… I-I'm not sure…

—Have you eaten already?

The only thing on their minds ever since they woke up was them hunting as much as they possibly could.

—Maybe later, right now we need to focus.

Jaehwang replied.

"I think we can do much more. What do you think?"

"S-Sure, let's do it!" Seongbin hesitated for a second but she soon replied with an excited tone.

Jaehwang then smiled."Great, let's get going."

Jaehwang handed Seongbin the directions and they made their way down the cliff, passing through the field of dead monsters on the ground.

As they kept walking, they began to see more people who were out for the hunt. It was a group that consists of two people, a girl, and a guy. However, the moment they saw Jaehwang they didn't look so happy.

"That guy…" Jaehwang whispered while being very careful not to let them see that he's talking about them. "Aren't they the group that I was first assigned to?"

He carefully looked at them again. They had a bit of a misunderstanding when he decided to switch groups. Clearly, they were still mad about it.

"How… why them out of all people!"

"Wait a second…" The other teams were talking about their plan but then they soon noticed Jaehwang who was nearby.

"What is it?" One of the people on the other team said as he noticed his teammate looking at them with a cold gaze. The teammate then glanced over and saw who he was looking at.

"What are they doing here?" Jaehwang said, looking in their direction.

"What the heck…"

The others couldn't believe it when they noticed how many monsters they've already caught. It wasn't even that long but they've already got almost half of what the all the other teams needed to catch.

There had been lots of disputes with the hunters and by standard judgments, no clan had the exact same strategy or ever seemed to copy anyone else's.

They obviously didn't seem too happy to see him, however, when they noticed how many monsters they had caught…

They couldn't believe it.

"Clearly they've only caught so many because they started out hunting early this morning before anyone else. And don't you think you should apologize?"

"Are you going to leave in the middle of the raid too like how you suddenly left our team?" The guy from the other team mockingly asked.

"I've already apologized. There's nothing more I need to say to you." Jaehwang calmly replied. "Is this a some kind of joke?"

The two people from the team then seemed to change their expression, they were afraid.

"W-Well.." Their stuttering showed off how scared they were.

He took out his bow with a straight face, making the other two as scared as they've ever been. They didn't know what he was thinking of, he just raised his weapon but there were no monsters to shoot at. Although Jaehwang knew that he can't hurt them, they were still scared of what might happen.

"W-We weren't being serious." One of the guys said as they tried to avoid causing any more trouble. Obviously, Jaehwang could tell what they really meant.

Jaehwang actually felt a little out of place throughout the entire raid. He didn't want to start any fights or arguments with anyone he just wanted to get this raid done.

'Ugh!' Two guys who didn't know better entered the scene. They were late when things had happened so they were offended by his actions, even one of them charged towards him.

"You think this is a joke!?" The guy shouted as he prepared for a punch.

'You better hope that you're strong enough!'

They were high ranked monsters hunters but was that enough of a reason to go against Jaehwang? They didn't even know exactly who it was and obviously, they were making a big mistake.

Pong! Woosh! Pong!

The guy ran faster and faster but as soon as he approached Jaehwang, he found himself crashing back into the ground.

"Arrrgh!" The guy screamed as he couldn't believe what had just happened. He felt a pain that he had never felt before.

"You Idiot." Jaehwang kicked him in the head to make him faint. He didn't want to be so harsh but since they were in a place where monsters could show up at any moment, his screaming wasn't helping any of them at all. The remaining person of the two stood in place, frozen with a shocked look on his face.

"Do you wanna try fighting me too?" Jaehwang looked over and asked him.

"N-No please, I beg you." The guy pleaded.

"Alright then, I guess I'm done here," Jaehwang said.

"Thank you so much," The guy replied thankfully.
