~~Fshback~~

  Two years after the Kamish's raid, Jason was sitting in his office anizing the raid schedule with Xiao Yu and Mingyue Wushuang.

  *Ring* *Ring*

  His cell ph non-stop attrag everyone's attention.

  Gng at the caller ID, he furrowed his broicked it up.

  "What makes the President himself call me sently?"

  - "Whatever you're pnning, drop it immediately. A S-rank gate has appeared in Busan."

  Jason raised his eyebrow in surprise, asking. "Are you sure?"

  - "Do you think I'll joke about something like this? I'm on the se right now and 't even believe my own eyes." Go Gunhee said, still in shock.

  Jason looked at Xiao Yu and Wushuang, both the girls were also surprised by the ge of events.

  Sihe first S-rank gate was supposed to appear on an isnd.

  Jason narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment before saying. "President, you should go back. I'll personally deal with it."

  - "No. I know your strength but I think-"

  Jason cut him off, speaking. "I uand but I think only I go ihe gate. More people will only cause casualties. President believe me but that gate... is a death zone."

  Go Gunhee paused for a long time, his heavy breaths could be heard oher side.

  After a long two minutes, he finally spoke.

  - "Fine. But you only have two hours. If you don't clear it in two hours then, I'll send the call for help for other tries."

  "I uand," Jason replied and put down the phone. He stood up and picked up his coat, draping it over his shoulder as he walked out of the office.

  "I'm going out. Take care of everything in my absence."

  "We uand. Take care." Xiao Yu and Mingyue Wushuang heir heads.

  Jason stepped out of the building and flew away towards Busan si would take too long by car.

  It only took him ten mio arrive at the location of the gate...

  "….Yes. Everyohe bck hole in the air you see behind me is the Gate that has appeared iy today….."

  "….Acc to my sources, this Gate has been ra S! Yes, it's the same rank that had appeared in the US two years ago which required hundreds of top-css huo clear. For more updates, keep ected to us…"

  Reporters had already formed a cordon around the Gate by the time he got there, and the Association employees, as well as the members of the army.

  The soldiers had already formed a barrier around the massive gate floating in the air, preventing people from getting close. Aside from the soldiers, many association employees were already present on the se doing their respective jobs.

  And in front of that gate stood a middle-aged man with a big build and scars. Even though he looked tiny in front of the gate, the vibe he was giving of a one-man army that could take on anything that would step out from the other side.

  The spectators were giving the looks of admiratiohey stared at the back of that man.

  Jason nded beside that middle-aged man, patting his shoulder.

  "You're earlier than me, President!"

  Go Guook a g his watd said. "You're te!"

  "Hey, it takes time to e here, you know," Jason grumbled in annoyance.

  "Look!"

  "Uh??"

  "Isn't he…?"

  "It's him!"

  "It's Hunter Hades!"

  "I think he came here to personally deal with the Gate!"

  People feeling fed up from being stuck here began reizing Jason, and their plexions brightened greatly.

  Go Gunhee igheir ents and stated. "You have only two hours."

  "It's more than enough," Jason said with a smile and stepped into the gate.

  It happe that moment.

  Screams were rising up from here and there.

  "Uhhh? What's going on here??"

  "Why is it ging to red color?!"

  Right after Jason stepped past the Gate, the eerie color of blood slowly spread over its bck surface. It was a Red Gate!! A terrifyi was unfolding right now.

  "Ah…..!"

  Go Gunhee was taken aback by the phenomenon but he still kept his cool, knowing clearly that if Jason couldn't clear the gate then no one iire Korea could.

  So, he ordered the employees to keep maintaining their positions and wait for Hunter Jason to e out.

  'You must clear this gate brat or I will go to hell to beat you up!'

  Go Guared at the gate and thought.

  Oher hand, after Jason stepped in, he was greeted by the sight of an ordinary cave-like dungeon with a long passageway with no end in sight.

  'Hmm, it seems pletely normal yet this strange feeling... I mean the mana here is literally g in fear... Let's see what you are hiding!'

  His eyes gazed far forward, and all he could see was the cavern-like passageway with seemingly no end. There were lit torches lining up at a fixed interval along the cavern walls as well.

  And there were no monsters nearby.

  He tio move forward slowly while keeping his se high alert.

  Finally.

  The torchlight revealed the end of the road. And that end was blocked off by a huge castle gate.

  It was quite rare to see a room with a door like that.

  Jason didn't know why but his instincts gave him a little warning as he touched the gate.

  But his curiouso know what was lying in this dungeon overwhelmed the warning. He grasped the handles of the doors.

  *Creak* *creaaaakkk-!*

  The heavy-looking doors slid open rather smoothly.

  *Rumble-!* *Boom!*

  The door to the room finally opened.

  The interior was pletely shrouded in darkness. He could only see the grouh his feet, which was covered in stoiles.

  As soon as he set foot on this floor….

  *Whooosh!*

  tless torches lining up the walls lit up all at ond illumihe interior.

  He maintained his vigince. He sed his viity and cautiously stepped forward. The habits that he had developed via hunting in his previous life couldn't be ged so easily.

  Several giant stone pilrs stood erect to his left and right; at the far end of this 'room', he could see a tall throne.

  'Isn't this...'

  Jason's face ged as he suddenly remembered something.

  A few steps ter, the door issued a loud bang and closed shut behind him.

  *SLAM!!*

  Just as the door was closed, a powerful wave of magical energy crashed into him, causing him to furrow his brows.

  It was then.

  From the gap between stone pilrs, which couldn't have been more thaeps, a 'doll' walked out from its hiding spot and stood before him, blog his path forward.

  The 'thing' stopped its walk and turned around to face him.
