While planning the raid Jaehw.a.n.g got lots of new supporters and even made new friends. In the meantime, he also had to be very careful about what he says in order to not ruin anything.

“My raid team is scheduled to all gather one friday so we can start the attack. Our team has planned everything perfectly so everything is expected to go well.”

“Is there any details you could tell us, sir?”

A reporter asked.

“I can't reveal anymore than that, I'm sorry.”

A few days later Jaehw.a.n.g and the raid team members sat onto the helicopter. A soldier named henry sat next to him and asked,

“Is something wrong?”

“What do you mean?”

Jaehw.a.n.g replied.

“There seems to be a lot of pressure on this raid mission.”

Alex said chiming in.

“Oh…”

It was true that he was feeling more pressure than usual this time around. The raid was taking place on the northern side of Europe. They were preparing to fight e ninth tier monster. It was the highest level monster he had ever fought.

“But you're an expert at this so it's probably not too worrying.”

“Yae.”

“Thanks.”

He replied, still a bit lost in thought as he looked out the window.

“I just don't understand it.”

“Why?”

“It's a long story. But…”

After he explained the situation they were left with shocked expressions.

“Are you okay?”

“It could be a big problem if it continues on like this.”

“That's true…”

“Looks like we have to be more careful than we thought. First we'll need to test all the weapons. That should take about an hour.”

“But I thought it was going to be a sparring fight.”

Alex asked in confusion.

He actually had even already prepared for that.

“Does the chances of us losing seem to be quite big?”

“I don't know but there seems to be a possibility of that…”

“Have you looked into the location the raid is located at?”

“The location of the raid…”

He said thinking. He actually did know the location.

It was right near the gate the Dakosu monsters were coming from. The place also happens to be near his hometown.

It's been a very long time since he had been back there…

“We're going to have to stay on guard while we're there.”

“Got it.”

The two soldier replied nodding their heads.

“I hear there's going to be a high level rank hunter there as well.”

“Really?”

“Yea, I heard about that too. We have to be careful not to run into them or start any fight with them.”

“That's right. We should be very careful and keep a close eye on them.”

Their raid leader replied.

“Looks like we have some enemies to look out for.”

Alex said.

“If we just avoid causing too much trouble with anyone else there this could go easier than we think.”

The leader said with a smile.

After the other team finished reviewing their plan and testing all their weapons they were almost completely prepared and ready to go. All they had left to do was find out more information on the hunter they were going to be up against.

It Jaehw.a.n.g. The other hunter who they were going up against at the raid location. From everything they've heard they knew it would be a challenge so they wanted to do some research and see if they could find out any of his weaknesses to help them.

“I haven't found any weaknesses we could use against him.”

One of his soldiers reported.

Besides all of the basic information, I can't find any in depth information on his skills or even anything like his weakness.

So far all they knew was his name and that he was a level ten hunter. The fact that he was such a powerful hunter was very worrisome for them.

While trying to search for information on his skills all that they could find is on news on all his past raids, which was very intimidating.

“Hmm…”

“Looks like this really won't be easy.”

“Indeed. I also think they'll be near Yongdamho Lake.”

“I guess they really aren't joking around.”

“Wow, really?”

A lady said as she walked into the room.

“Sounds like this is going to take a lot.”

She said. The lady had long blond hair and was wearing a violet dress that wrapped perfectly around her slim figure. Everyone in the room were taken aback by her beauty.

“So, how's it going here?”

“Ah, yes, ma'am, we're getting everything prepared.”

The raid team leader replied.

All the other soldiers then tried to act normal with faces that were red in embarra.s.sment.

“Do you want to know what we have so far?”

“You figured it out?”

She asked.

“Well, not exactly…”

He said hesitantly.

They were still lacking on information about Jaehw.a.n.g and his clan.

“Hmm… I thought you didn't know this place.”

“I was surprised about it too but after I looked into more I realized that actually I once lived there. But, we do have to plan carefully and not act too rashly…”

He replied.

“Understood.”

She said nodding her head.

“Wow…”

Out of nowhere he heard a loud explosion that caused someone to fly by him and crash into the wall.

Swoosh… Click

They could hear the sound of something or someone somewhere far in the distance.

“Let's go.”

Swoosh Swoosh…

The noises became louder the more they stepped closer.

Out of nowhere someone then shouted,

“Don't be so loud! Be careful”

“Got it!”

The guy walking in the lead said. His hands were shaking in fear as they slowly walked closer and closer.

“Hurry, we have to attack!”

“h.e.l.lo, my name Rumi.”

They heard someone introducing themselves. As they got closer they were able to see their face clearly.

However, suddenly they started to step back and then stopped entirely. Rumi then looked at them and said,

“Don't forget to keep quiet, everyone! They can attack at any moment!”

She said and everyone immediately stood quiet.

“Ahhhh!!!”

Just as they had started to get moving again they suddenly they heard a loud scream coming from far away in the distance. They immediately stopped and looked around.

They had no idea what could have caused the scream or where it came from as they didn't see anything.

Then…

Swooshh…. Pong!!

A giant battle axe came flying past them and crashed into the wall. All of them immediately took out their weapons ready to fight.

“Ahh…”

That time the scream was much quieter. It sound like it came from even further away.

Rumi took out her sword just in case. She then looked over towards Alex and asked,

“Should I go and see what it is?”

He looked a bit unsure.

“I don't think that's a good idea…”

“It'll be fine. I think I know who it is. It seems like only a level six hunter.”

“I don't know… A level six hunter? In this neighbor it could be anyone, we have to be very careful…”

He warned.

“I can handle it, don't worry.”

“Okay…”

He said in reply still feeling unsure about it as they didn't know what to expect.

However, thankfully things didn't seem to be too dangerous. They haven't actually seen any enemies yet so that was a good sign.

Just then, they heard something again.

Fighting Alone? 2, The end.
