My Range is One Million

Chapter 176: The Chase 2

There was an American flag on top of an antique wooden shelf and next to it was a head of a dead monster hanging on the wall. It looked like a level five or seven monster with horns sticking out of its head along with its big sharp teeth.

“Thanks.” The commander said to Jaehwang who then sat on the sofa.

After they found Timothy, the commander requested a private meeting with Jaehwang. It was now time to start their real plan. The room was filled with a piece of quiet country music coming from the radio as the commander took a sip from his coffee.

“Alright. Why would a monster like you come to a place like this? Can I ask you honestly now?”

He asked although he already knew what his answer would be. Jaehwang nodded his head and then commander said,

“Well...”

Jaehwang then took a pair of earphones off of his head.

“What?”

“Just a moment”

It was the set that he used to communicate with the other clan members.

“Nothing much... but”

Click...

He pressed a button and started a new machine.

“It would be great if he turned off the Oracle system,” Jaehwang said and the commander then asked,

“Huh?”

“The American Oracle system can be blocked,” Jaehwang said, making the commander stroke his chin as he thought about it for a moment. They don’t know who to contact for this one so they couldn’t do much about it. Nevertheless, he didn’t know what to say.

The door was then opened, a soldier came in and placed something onto the table before he left the room.

“Can we talk seriously now?” The commander said in a more serious tone.

“How do we gather everything first?” He asked.

Jaehwang then took a deep breath and replied, “I don’t know where to go after this.”

“I see.”

Jaehwang then took a sip of his coffee. The door was then opened once again and this time, four people walked in. Three of them looked to be in their late twenties while one of them seemed to be just a few years younger than the rest. She was a young woman with a pure appearance like the spirit.

—Hey! We don’t look that much alike!

The spirit said as soon as he heard his thoughts.

—She looks a lot like you. Don’t you think so?

—Psh. Hilarious.

“I’m the chief of the National Defense Team, Nial Howard. This is the chief of the Informations, Ronald Kaid and these are my two assistants.”

“My name is Jaehwang. I want to know about the machine but...”

“Haha, I know. You’re not even a part of any American clans,” Nial said with a laugh. He said it with a smile although it wasn’t much of a compliment. He had actually gone there to gather more information on Jaehwang.

His attitude was a bit overbearing however, to Jaehwang, he was more polite. Of course, Jaehwang wasn’t the same towards him and after meeting a lot of people, he learned how to deal with a lot of them.

“There’s a lot that I wanted to know about you,” Nial said with his sparkling eyes as if he was obsessed with him.

“You’re not more sorry than curious?...”

“I understand, things have been very complicated lately. It seems we have a love and hate relationship but maybe we can get past this and work together...”

He seemed like a person that talked a lot. Jaehwang then heard the spirit speak,

—She is really powerful. She has a special skill

—What is it?

—Friendship, Affirmation and a captivating charm? Something doesn’t feel right...

The spirit said and Jaehwang then glanced over to where she was sitting. She then smiled back and he found him to be beautiful...

—Isn’t it fascinating?

The spirit asked as she used a skill to help protect Jaehwang from her captivation.

—Isn’t it strange? Look at that person. Doesn’t it seem to be affecting him?

They then looked over towards the commander who was staring at her as well. Jaehwang then began to look a little fired up.

“One second...” Jaehwang said and Niall looked at him with a strange expression.

“Isn’t that enough?”Jaehwang then followed as he lightly waved his hand. Just then, energy began to well up in his hands.

Whoosh!

The moment Jaehwang’s energy passed by them, they secretly used a spell that made him scream as he held onto his head. It was a mind spell that made him feel the pain.

Niall then said, “I came here because I wanted to have an honest conversation with you. But, it seems that you had doubted me. I’ll ask you this one more time.”

Jaehwang didn’t tell them everything.

“Ugh...”

“Ahem..”

“Cough...”

Everyone sitting on the sofa then groaned. The commander was a level 6 hunter and when Jaehwang faced him, he looked very angry. His face was now covered in blood and sweat.

“P-Please stop...”

“Don’t answer that...” Niall said in a frightened voice.

“I forgive you,” He said giving up.

“Let’s not do this again.”

Depending on if Jaehwang agreed or not, their energy could be restricted. Jaehwang then looked at the commander and asked,

“Isn’t that an easy question?”

“Um... Um...” He replied with his voice still shaking.”

He was so nervous that he felt like he was going to throw up. Clearly, he thought things would be simple enough if he brought his agents here with their special skills. He was very powerful. Luckily it didn’t affect Jaehwang too much as he wasn’t in a bad condition.

Although he didn’t know about the skill, he could tell that it wasn’t something that anyone could have or easily use. It was very powerful and obviously, he had to find out more about it.

“Both of you, leave.”

“Yes, sir.”

Niall sent his two assistants out of the room. Maybe if he were to try and trick him again the easy question that he mentioned would turn difficult. Only four of them was now left in the room and of course, the atmosphere was still very tense.

“You want to know why I’m here?” Jaehwang said as the first one to speak.

“Yes, that’s what I want to know,” Niall replied.

“Are you thinking that I’m not satisfied with the recent politics of America and Korea and I’m here to protest about it?”

“That’s true,” Niall said with a nod.

“Well, I actually came here to warn America. It’s in trouble.”

“America is in trouble?” Niall asked in shock. If what he said was right, then he would totally have to get rid of his information assistant. However, before that, he wanted to hear what else Jaehwang had to say.

“Can you explain it a little more in detail?” Niall asked Jaehwang who then replied,

“Did you hear about Caroline? The girl who snuck her way into the National Hunter Association for an invasion?” Jaehwang asked.

Nial then nodded his head as he remembered that incident. He knew her well. She was quite powerful and led a lot of missions to victory.

“That incident also happened because of the church members...” Nial said. It was still complicated for a lot of people as there was not enough evidence for the investigators, therefore, they couldn’t find out who was at the bottom of it.

“Actually, it was the Samjeon church who was responsible for it. They were working as spies in the National Hunter Association.”

“That can’t be true!” Niall shouted as he stood up from his chair. The information found during the investigation was sent directly to him. He remembered all of it. He couldn’t believe that Caroline could have been a spy. She seemed so loyal.

“You should apologize. The only people spotted at the scene of the accident where you and your clan,” he said, implying that Jaehwang could be the one at fault. Jaehwang then shrugged his shoulder.

“What was the purpose of you coming here to deceive us?” Nial asked. Although they seemed to not believe him at all, they were very confused on the inside. What if what he was saying was true? Jaehwang then smirked.

“Because I ambushed them. But you don’t have to believe me.”

Jaehwang said. Nial did think that it could be true.

“Are you sure?”

“I’m positive.”

Niall felt a chill go down his spine as he thought of all the information that was given to him. If what Jaehwang said was right, then a lot of changes needs to be made. As much as he didn’t want to believe it, he couldn’t deny it. After Jaehwang told him everything about what happened when he caught her, he knew it had to be the truth.

“Well, looks like we’re going to have to go through some cumbersome steps.”

The Chase 2, The end.
