Extra Story (2)
Ahmed Hassan, the director of the Egyptian Security Bureau, was in direct control of the hunting area.
“That is Raven…”
It was an incredible sight.
Egypt and the neighbouring countries of Libya and Sudan had been thrown into confusion as signs that a giant gate would appear in the Bahariya Desert emerged.
Dragon-grade. A dragon-grade monster was something that could wipe out the entire country. After the opening of the Great Monster Era. Every time a dragon-grade monster appeared, a catastrophe took place.
Sydney, where the first dragon-grade monster appeared, was still a land of death. At some point, the damage caused by dragon-grade monsters disappeared. It was due to one thing.
‘Raven’ Jung Ian. The only hunter who could kill dragon-grade monsters. His power wasn’t limited to just one country. He was a sword that should be used on behalf of the entire human race.
As a freelance hunter, he worked solo as he accepted requests from all over the world in accordance to their importance. Hunting dragon-grade monsters and reclaiming cities where monsters had set up lairs were his main tasks.
Once the Egyptian government asked for help at the emergence of a dragon-grade, he immediately flew over on a private jet. Then he slaughtered the dragon-grade monster. It was in an instant.
“Indeed, he is the guardian of the human race that God has sent.”
Ahmed Hassan was full of appreciation. With one swing of the greatsword ‘God Slayer,’ the hard shell of the best was sliced through like it was tofu. The fires that occurred burned the monster.
The body of the best was shredded, affecting the white desert sand beyond the monster’s body. There was a large empty space in the desert. It was beyond the power of a human.
“Nobody would believe it.”
A dragon-grade monster was killed. Truly overwhelming! He looked up at the sky. The helicopter carrying Jung Ian was returning to the base.
The hunters, who were preparing just in case they had to act, and the personnel of the command centre met him. Everyone applauded as he got off the helicopter. It was a tribute to the most unique hunter on Earth.
Ahmed Hassan approached Ian and asked for a handshake.
“Thank you.”
“It is nothing.”
“Once again, I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of all of Egypt. It was a wonderful strength.”
It was through the translator devices in their ears, but the words were fully conveyed.
“And…” Ahmed Hassan took Ian’s hand once again. “My son was a ‘returnee.’ I always wanted to meet you to thank you for that day.”
Raven, Jung Ian. It was an open secret that he was the legendary ‘Crockta’ from Elder Lord.
“I’m glad. Is your son well?”
“He is working as a hunter.”
“Great. I wish him good luck. Now I have to go to Benghazi.”
The city of Benghazi, in the neighbouring country of Libya, had already been occupied by monsters. The hunters set up a blockage, but it wouldn’t last. Africa didn’t have many Elder Lord players, so they were lacking hunters and needed support.
Ahmed Hassan nodded.
“I understand. Please excuse me for taking up your time when you are so busy. I will contact you through your agent.”
“Thank you.”
Ian rose on the helicopter again to move to the runway where his jet was.
***
Ian closed his eyes as he felt the vibrations of the jet. It had been a while since he started travelling the world like this.
The first day that the gate opened, Ian awakened the power of Elder Lord and fought against the monster. He thought it was a temporary phenomenon at first, but his strength didn’t disappear. Monsters constantly emerged.
They were the enemy of humanity. According to the grey god who looked at the dimension of the monsters, it was a completely different place from Earth or Elder Lord. The closest representation was ‘hell.’ It was such a terrible place that even she couldn’t observe it for long. An ugly dimension that constantly produced hatred.
Ian couldn’t live a carefree life as long as they were aiming at Earth.
“Sigh…”
Ian sighed and his secretary asked him.
“Would you like something to eat?”
“That’s okay. I will go and see it first.”
His secretary nodded. He was someone the Korean government gave to Ian. A person who was also an Elder Lord user, his main focus was healing. Now he reached out to heal Ian’s fatigue.
“Here, a wound.”
He suddenly pointed to Ian’s side. Blood was emerging from a wound there.
“It is nothing, so just heal it here.”
“Hey…”
Dragon-grade monsters were weak to him, but they could still injure him. This was the final blow just before death. If he hadn’t avoided it, his guts would’ve spilled all over the place. Ian was used to being injured.
“Benghazi’s status?’
“The data has arrived. Ah, before that…” The secretary hesitated before continuing. “The video from last month’s South Africa raid has leaked. I went to Youvids and other video sites, but it still isn’t down. A hacker is responsibility… Leonardo will send a strong letter of complaint.”
“It doesn’t matter.”
“But…”
“What? Everyone already roughly knows.” Ian shrugged. “It doesn’t worry me.”
When the Great Monsters Era began, people’s attention was focused on one thing. The user ‘Crockta’.
When the first monsters appeared, it was Ian who fought for the helpless. Then he fought with a mask on his face. However, the greatsword, tattoos and great power gradually raised suspicion that he was Crockta.
He asked the government for secrecy, but he couldn’t prevent it from leaking. People were convinced that he was Crockta.
“Here, this is the current view of Benghazi.”
“Awful.”
“The lair has progressed considerably. If left alone, it will be like Sydney.”
“I can’t let that happen.”
“There is the first dragon-class object. I call it ‘Parthenon.’
“Support?”
“It won’t be enough. Other countries have heard that Ian-nim is coming. Everybody wants to see Crockta fight.”
“Let them look. Everybody knows.”
“Haha…”
After witnessing the Sydney disaster, Ian had moved his stage to the world. He stopped fighting in public. He dealt with the worst monsters in the worst places.
Then the story of the ‘dragon-grade’ monsters and the unidentified hunter called Raven started to spread. The information about dragon-grade monsters was strictly controlled to maintain order, but it couldn’t be stopped forever. Those involved sold information anonymously.
Eventually, people knew about the hunter who fought the worst enemies where no one knew about it. They were convinced that the man with the greatsword was Crockta. The suspicions were mostly true. Now everyone knew but kept quiet.
Ian shrugged.
“Is there anything else?”
“Oh, Rommel contacted me. He has news to share. It is urgent.”
“Hansung?”
‘Rommel’, Choi Hansung.
He was one of the few people who actually knew Raven’s identity. Ian’s friend.
In Elder Lord, after the battle with the empire, Rommel said he wanted to become Crockta’s friend. Of course, it was rejected. Tiyo replied instead.
‘If you want to be friends with Crockta, you should show it in your behaviour dot.’
‘Behaviour…’
‘People are evaluated by their actions dot. You can never be close friends with Crockta using meaningless words. If you really have a changed your mind, you need to prove it dot.’
Ian thought this relationship was cut off there. But Rommel was persistent. After the events of Elder Lord, Rommel quickly became famous when the monsters appeared. Thanks to the War Maestro class, he led his team and crushed the monsters on the Korean peninsula. Thanks to his dedication, he got the nickname of ‘Captain Korea.’
He somehow knew who Jung Ian was despite the mask and they repelled the monsters together.
‘Am I qualified now Crockta?’
In the end, Ian was forced to agree. Thus, the hunters Jung Ian and Choi Hansung became friends, not Crockta and Rommel who were hostile towards each other.
“I will contact him after taking back Benghazi.”
“He said it is urgent…”
“That brat is always like this. He probably fought with his girlfriend and is calling for advice.”
Choi Hansung was a surprisingly poor friend. He would state it was an emergency and call him, only to introduce Ian to some women. Or after fighting with his girlfriend, he would drunkenly cry and complain.
Ordinary people only saw Rommel’s heroic appearance, so they would never think he was like this.
“Really?”
“Yes.”
The secretary also seemed like he didn’t believe it.
“I understand. By the way, we are landing soon.”
The jet started sailing down the runway in the Libyan desert. This was what he had to do now. Recover the city of Benghazi, which was taken away by monsters.
***
“He is busy and I can’t seem to get in touch with him right now.”
“I see dot.”
Rommel, Choi Hansung became the guardian of four people.
He stilled looked at them with suspicion, but Rommel didn’t do anything. They would be given identities later on.
They were the ones who defeated the basilisk that first crossed over. Rommel had no power to detain them, and they were Jung Ian’s friends. There was no country on Earth that would be safe without Jung Ian.
“This thing called a car is really interesting dot!”
“What is it? Is it intelligent? Can it feel emotions?”
“People are staring.”
“Bul’tar…”
Tiyo, Anor, Driden and Tashaquil resembled humans. In addition, Tashaquil had a hood covering his face.
Usually Rommel would drive a sports car. But because of these people, he rented a support van and headed towards his house.
“Just close the window and I’ll explain. People are staring…”
“How do I close it dot? No. How did you do it?”
“Press that button.”
“It is opening even more dot?”
“The other way!”
“It is complicated dot!”
They caused a commotion. Choi Hansung looked at them in the rearview mirror.
“This is wonderful dot. Tashaquil!”
“Huhu, I have to go out because he is becoming angry.”
When Tiyo couldn’t close the window, Tashaquil moved. The window was frozen by his magic. Instead of raising the window, a block of ice was made. It was a serious sight.
“…”
The van sped down the road.
“This is a strange dimension. There is a great development compared to our world.”
Anor suddenly spoke.
Although he was from somewhere different, it was easy to see that this was a vastly developed civilization. The steel wagon they were riding was moving quickly down the road, causing the landscape to change quickly. There were solid buildings that soared into the sky, and the city lights were splendid.
“Hmm?”
Tashaquil suddenly turned his head. The others followed suit.
“There is a strange aura dot?”
“Ahh.”
Choi Hansung nodded.
The police were controlling the road. A gate was opening not far away. He hadn’t heard about it, so it must be a high consumption or low-risk gate.
“A gate is opening.”
“Gate?”
They expression interest once Choi Hansung explained about the dimensional gates.
“Can we see it dot?”
“Do you mean a raid?”
“Indeed dot. I am curious about the monsters of another dimension.”
Choi Hansung thought about it and nodded. He didn’t know how they came over, but they could no longer return. So, they would have to stay in this dimension for a while. All four of them were Crockta’s former companions, so they would have huge power. It was best if they helped with the creatures.
“I understand. Then let’s go.”
Rommel was a well-known hunter, so it wasn’t difficult to enter the area of operations. The path opened as soon as he showed his hunter registration card.
