Chapter 95
News arrived that the final unconquered ruin—the Boundary—had been cleared.
And the Hunter who had conquered it was none other than Jeon Jae-woo alone, not the Transcendent-rank Hunters.
For the International Hunter Alliance, which had united to prevent all Ancient-grade Ruins from falling into his hands, it was like chasing a chicken only to have the dog run away empty-mouthed.
[Even the last remaining Ancient-grade Ruin falls into Jeon Jae-woo’s grasp…]
[Three Ancient-grade Ruins conquered in succession? Is this an error?]
[Transcendent-rank Hunters who entered the ruin disbanded quickly… silent on all questions.]
┗ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Never seen all the Transcendent-rank Hunters gathered like that before, and they got completely stomped.
┗Why’d you have to provoke Jeon Jae-woo into conquering a perfectly intact Ancient-grade Ruin anyway.
┗But does that even make sense? How can anyone conquer three Ancient-grade Ruins back-to-back?
┗Are you new to Jeon Jae-woo the Hunter? He’s the strongest on Earth—something like that’s just par for the course.
┗That’s ridiculous. Until now, there was always a pretty long gap between each ruin conquest.
Both Hunters and ordinary people found it nearly impossible to believe.
How could his conquest speed be that fast?
Normally, after conquering an Ancient-grade Ruin, one had to rest for at least three or four days.
When the news spread, the political sphere sent congratulations to Jeon Jae-woo, who had supposedly elevated the nation’s prestige.
Yoo Jung-tae received a summons to Cheong Wa Dae and went to meet the President.
At a gathering of government officials related to Hunter agencies, the Prime Minister appeared quite excited.
“Isn’t this truly remarkable, Mr. President? I never would have imagined three Ancient-grade Ruins being conquered. The Union must have been sharpening their blades for this.”
President Lee Hoe-chan emphasized strongly to Yoo Jung-tae.
“Director. You must under no circumstances allow the rewards from ruin conquests to go overseas. Please ensure we can trade directly with our government. I’m willing to accommodate whatever the Hunter Jeon Jae-woo desires.”
“Yes, sir. I will ensure all dealings are made directly with the government.”
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister seemed far more interested in Jeon Jae-woo than in the ruin conquest rewards themselves.
“But Director Yoo, isn’t it normal to rest for several days after conquering a ruin?”
“It is, sir.”
“Then how on earth was he able to conquer ruins so quickly?”
Yoo Jung-tae naturally had no answer to that.
Perhaps this time Jeon Jae-woo had consumed some elixir or recovery potion to restore himself for rapid ruin conquests.
“Hunter Jeon Jae-woo’s capabilities are exceptional, as you well know, Mr. Prime Minister. It’s hardly surprising at this point.”
“Hmph. I wonder if this was intentional—bringing Transcendent-rank Hunters together like that to conquer an Ancient-grade Ruin.”
Everyone agreed that Jeon Jae-woo had set a remarkable record, but at the same time, there was concern.
If he had pushed himself this hard, his condition might not be good.
After leaving Cheong Wa Dae, Yoo Jung-tae went straight to find Jeon Jae-woo.
When he arrived at his house and rang the doorbell, the Jeon Jae-woo who came out looked surprisingly fine.
No, beyond just looking fine.
‘…Why does this fellow look so radiant?’
His entire body gleamed with vitality, radiating the unmistakable aura of a healthy person.
Was this really someone who had just conquered three Ancient-grade Ruins in succession?
“Director? What brings you by so suddenly?”
“Well… your health is all right, isn’t it? I was worried since you moved so quickly.”
“Ah, I’m completely fine. No need to worry.”
Yoo Jung-tae stepped inside and began to talk.
“Hunter, if I may ask—how did the rewards from the ruin conquests turn out?”
It was clear he had come to negotiate the sale of the ruin conquest rewards.
But the rewards from the Obsidian and Dawn Ruins couldn’t be sold.
The Magical Device that opens spatial portals—the Orb—Jeon Jae-woo would use himself.
The conquest reward from the Dawn Ruin couldn’t be sold to anyone.
The reward was an effect where one’s entire body automatically recovered and became healthier the moment one entered the ruin—how could one sell that?
‘I could open it later with my permission so that Hunters could use it.’
But from the Boundary Ruin, something worthwhile had emerged.
This time, like the reward from the Obsidian Ruin, there was a fist-sized Orb.
Jeon Jae-woo took out the sphere and placed it on the table.
“What manner of object is this?”
“I analyzed the Magical Device on my own, and it appears to be something that creates barriers.”
“Barriers… you mean?”
Since the core of the Boundary Ruin had been a barrier itself, the reward was also a Magical Device for forming barriers.
Moreover, this sphere was no ordinary barrier-forming device.
“Yes. My estimate is that with this Magical Device, we could likely create a barrier capable of protecting all the major cities on the Korean Peninsula.”
Yoo Jung-tae’s eyes widened in an instant.
“Is… is that really true?”
“I’m not entirely certain, but that’s likely the case. You’d get a clearer sense if you tested it directly.”
The reward was befitting of an Ancient-grade Ruin—an extraordinary object—yet from the moment Jeon Jae-woo received it, he’d been thinking about where to sell it.
After all, he didn’t have vast territories or fortresses that needed defending.
‘If this Orb can protect more people, that’s a good use for it.’
Should a Dungeon Break ever occur on the Korean Peninsula, this Orb would prove invaluable.
Even now, Monsters occasionally escaped from dungeons and harmed civilians.
From a military standpoint alone, it was an object of staggering strategic value.
Yoo Jung-tae took a measured breath.
Now that he understood this was no ordinary item, he would need to offer equivalent compensation to take it.
“What would you ask for, Hunter?”
“Pardon?”
“This Magical Artifact exceeds the value I could reasonably estimate. Please tell me what compensation you desire, Hunter. I will honor it.”
Yoo Jung-tae was offering a blank check, uncertain what else he could provide.
Though Jeon Jae-woo wasn’t about to hand it over for nothing, the Hunter Bureau likely didn’t have many things he actually wanted.
“Just give me more Magical Artifact materials. I have several new items I’d like to craft.”
……
But they’d been doing that all along anyway.
An object of this caliber couldn’t be taken away with merely ordinary compensation.
‘I need to offer something truly befitting.’
Jeon Jae-woo had to remain dependent on the Korean Hunter Bureau going forward.
Otherwise, something this magnificent might slip overseas.
Yoo Jung-tae opened his mouth slowly, his expression suddenly grave and resolute.
“Hunter Jeon Jae-woo.”
“Yes?”
“In the basement of the Hunter Bureau, there is a material that may interest you, though it may not be something you need immediately.”
It was kept under the strictest secrecy—an item whose existence was known only to the President, the Prime Minister, and the Director of the Hunter Bureau.
“Would you like to take a look at it, if you’re willing?”
***
Among those present at the board meeting, it was the great powers who were burning with frustration.
Carlos, the director of the American Awakener Management Bureau, was seething in uncharacteristic fury.
“How on earth is this even possible?”
……
“Is that man immortal or something? Since when can anyone move at this pace??”
In his frustration, he was venting his anger on his hapless subordinates.
One of them spoke up carefully.
“The things he’s accomplished so far have been extraordinary, after all.”
“That’s exactly why! Until now, he at least spaced them out, but how does he suddenly conquer three in a row? And Ancient-grade Ruins at that!!”
……
What good would it do to complain to them about this?
Sigh…
Director Carlos, having barely regained his composure, settled into his chair and spoke.
“So he’s truly exhausted all his Conquest Tokens now, correct?”
A subordinate nodded in confirmation.
“Yes, we can be certain of it.”
Perhaps only one or two of the additional Conquest Tokens they’d granted remained.
In other words, Jeon Jae-woo’s dungeon conquests had essentially come to an end.
“Has Hunter Jeon given any response? We urged him to transfer his nationality to the United States.”
The subordinates answered with silent affirmation.
‘Damn it.’
Well, it no longer mattered if they couldn’t bring Jeon Jae-woo over.
As he’d said, this conquest had effectively been Jeon Jae-woo’s final dungeon conquest.
And perhaps it was because Jeon Jae-woo had monopolized dungeon conquests for so long?
Recently, dungeons no longer yielded additional Conquest Tokens as rewards.
In other words, Korea’s golden age of dungeon conquests had come to an end.
What was so remarkable about Korea, anyway?
Before Jeon Jae-woo appeared, Korea could barely manage to conquer one Legendary-grade Ruin a month.
‘So the dominance over dungeons returns to us great powers, then.’
Meanwhile, at that same moment in the Korean Hunter Bureau.
Clang!
In the underground training hall, Jeon Ji-woo and Kim Yu-min crossed their blades.
Jeon Ji-woo pressed her advantage relentlessly, and before long, Kim Yu-min’s sword slipped from her grip.
When the bout ended, Kim Yu-min wiped the sweat from her brow and spoke.
“Thank you. I appreciate it.”
“You did well too. Your skills have improved quite a bit, haven’t they?”
“Really?”
“Absolutely. I don’t lie when it comes to Swordsmanship.”
Jeon Ji-woo had somehow become like an older sister to Kim Yu-min.
Jeon Jae-woo was twenty-six, Kim Yu-min was twenty-five.
And since Jeon Ji-woo was Jeon Jae-woo’s twin sister, she was officially a year older than Kim Yu-min.
With both of them being warrior-types, their ages similar, and their homes practically next door to each other, the two had grown close quickly.
Kim Yu-min had taken to Jeon Ji-woo almost immediately after she joined the Hunter Bureau.
Sparring with Jeon Ji-woo was genuinely helpful—she could feel her skills improving at a noticeable pace.
“What do you say? Another round tomorrow?”
“No, I need to rest for a few days before I head out to conquer that Legendary-grade Ruin. You should focus on recovery too.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
A Legendary-grade Ruin.
The world was in such chaos over conquering uncleared Ruins that many new Ruins were being left behind.
Thanks to Jeon Jae-woo, the Korean Hunter Bureau didn’t have to worry about Dungeon Breaks, so they were busy conquering the Ruins that others overlooked.
Jeon Ji-woo fell silent for a moment, her expression thoughtful, before speaking up abruptly.
“Does the Hunter Bureau never attempt Ancient-grade Ruins?”
The sudden question caught Kim Yu-min slightly off guard.
“What? Not a chance. With our current hunter forces, it’s completely out of the question.”
“Why? Isn’t our military power sufficient now?”
True, their overall strength had risen considerably thanks to the Magical Artifacts that Jeon Jae-woo had provided.
“Still, it’s not enough yet. More importantly, to conquer an Ancient-grade Ruin, you need at least one Transcendent-rank Hunter on your team.”
“Hmm…”
Jeon Ji-woo stared at the ceiling once more before speaking.
“So if I acquire a Transcendent-grade Trait, we could make an attempt?”
Kim Yu-min’s eyes widened.
She was startled by the sudden comment.
But thinking about it carefully, there was no reason to say it was impossible.
If Jeon Ji-woo couldn’t become a Transcendent-rank Hunter, who in Korea could?
She already possessed two S-rank Traits. It was only a matter of time before Jeon Ji-woo became a Transcendent-rank Hunter—it was practically inevitable.
‘When that day comes, we might actually be able to conquer an Ancient-grade Ruin with the Hunter Bureau’s strength.’
But would she herself still be an active hunter by then?
In preparation for the Ancient-grade Ruin conquest that might come someday, Jeon Ji-woo resolved to train even harder than before.
