I Am The Anti-Mage

Chapter 161: Come At The Right Time?

On the other side of the earth, the next day, at Gimpo Airport, South Korea, the arrival of the 13 hunters caused quite a stir. Even though the hunters wore ordinary suits like office workers, it still didn't hide their fighter atmosphere. And that made the regular people at the airport focus their attention on them.

Until finally, some realized who the hunters were. And among them, some reporters were on duty there.

"What are they doing here? Not just a few but all thirteen of them at the same time. What's going on here?!"

"The Pillars of The Sun. The Juusan-nin of Gaijin. But, there was no notification from the Hunters Association that they were coming. What happened!?"

"Are…? Are they going to make a fuss here?"

"Don't speak carelessly!"

"Who cares about their purpose and reason for coming here! What's important is that we get new material ready to be made as freely as we can to become controversial news!"

The reporters were overjoyed to hear this. They were then busy typing anything that could make their articles interesting, along with photos of the hunters.

In the end, no one dared to disturb the hunters. Even the airport security guards didn't dare to search them further or inspect them too much. And amid this helplessness, the Gimpo airport had made a report to the Hunters Association.

At the arrival gate, the Gaijin hunters came, and there was a young man who greeted them in Japanese. Near the young man were three black cars ready to transport the hunters. Each vehicle has its own driver, just like the young man.

"Akuma~san, we are ready to take you all to the destination."

Akuma nodded his head. "Let's depart."

On the other hand, the South Korean Hunter Association had been busy since last night. They know about the body and head of a suspected traitor from Japan coming to their place.

Chairman Yu finally confirmed that the corpse was Ohara Momoka after the body arrived this morning. One of the people who betrayed humanity and caused a great defeat to the world in the event of the first year of the Portal Gate. At the same time, he also received information about the arrival of the Japanese sole Apex-ranked hunter at Gimpo airport.

"Master, why didn't the Japanese Hunters Association give us advance notice? Does this mean the Gaijin Guild is moving of their own accord?! What are they actually here for it?! How annoying." Chief Yoon said.

Chairman Yu sighed as he rubbed his temples. "Is there any other reason for them to come here if it wasn't for that body!? Speaking of coincidences, that's the only thing that could make them come unannounced."

"But, it's our jurisdiction to take care of this!"

Of course, Chairman Yu also knew this. But, what could he do? It was a guild with an Apex-ranked, plus 12 S-rank hunters behind the man.

The Shadow Guild, the Demigod Guild, and the Artates Guild should also have received information about the incident at Gimpo airport. But, no one responded at all and bothered to send their S-rank hunters to the Hunters Association.

Chairman Yu already knew the attitude of the guilds would be like this. That was why he couldn't do much, even though there were hunters from other countries entering the territory of his authority without asking permission first.

The guilds were only interested when their interests got disturbed. And for the matter of whether the Hunters Association would clash with any guilds was none of their business.

Fortunately, Dal-soo, Jo-hyun, and Ji-yong informed that they would come to meditate, just in case a dispute broke out. They also wanted to examine Ohara Momoka's body. They wondered who could kill a member of Ma Dong-seok's group. In addition, the Demigod guild's A-rank hunter Min-ho also followed behind the three S-rank hunters to come.

That way, the lineup would be four S-ranks and four A-ranks. Not bad, but not enough to match The Juusan-nin of Gaijin.

Even supposing the Hunters Association had 12 S-rank hunters and one Apex-rank from the South Korean guilds to match the number of Gaijin guild hunters that was coming, it would still be unequal.

Are the titles of The Juusan-nin of Gaijin and the Pillars of the Sun only for display if they could get matched by the sheer number of hunters?! What a joke! They were one of the best guilds in the world. It was far above the Artates guild, named the strongest one in South Korea.

Forget for a moment about the Apex-ranked hunter, Yoh Akuma.

The twelve S-rank hunters alone were a unique existence. It was because apart from mastering the four primary elements. Each possessed the abilities of rare elements, such as darkness, light, life, and many others. That was why they were able to close a tier-5 Portal Gate without much trouble and loss. They were even five hours faster than the Artates guild's record of 20 hours.

Japan was one of the countries with a low percentage of the tier-5 Portal Gates existence. Even the Japanese Hunters Association gave a low price for a tier-5 Portal Gate because the success rate of the Gaijin guild was 100%. They beat countries like Russia and Egypt, which had two Apex-ranked hunters to become equal with the world's top guilds. Besides, the Gaijin guild only had 50 members, far less than the Artates guild's 300 members.

That comparison should already show the difference in the combat power of a country, not to mention an entity. So, it was better if the dispute didn't break out at any time. That was because only the South Korean side was at a disadvantage.

Not long after, an employee notified Chairman Yu of the arrival of the Gaijin guild hunters. In addition, Dal-soo, Jo-hyun, Ji-yong, and Min-ho also arrived after those hunters.

Chief Lee and his staff were busy taking care of the reporters and hunters who had come to see the commotion so that no one got seen left in front of the entrance.

Meanwhile, the Gaijin guild hunters stood opposite Chairman Yu and the others.

"You know what we're here for, don't you? Let's not prolong this matter." Akuma said, starting the conversation. And the young man who greeted him at the beginning then translated his words to the South Korean side.

However, before the translation finished, Chairman Yu replied directly in Japanese. "You guys came without permission. Also, the body is within my jurisdiction. So, I can't hand it over to you without proper procedures according to the rules of the International Hunters Association."

Drrrt!

Suddenly, Chairman Yu's smartphone vibrated after he finished saying his intentions.

Akuma then said casually. "Pick up the call."

Chairman Yu narrowed his eyes when he heard Akuma's words and saw the name on his smartphone. He picked up the call and answered in Japanese.

"Yes. Yu Dong-chul is here."

"Hey! Can you just hand over the traitor's body? I know the rules of our Association must get obeyed. But you know it yourself, don't you? We don't have to follow everything! After all, in two days, right. In less than 24 hours, the International Hunters Association will take over the affairs and bring the body to their headquarters!

"That body is the one who betrayed my country! It's only right that it comes back here, whether alive or dead!"

Tuut!

Chairman Yu hung up the call even though the conversation wasn't over yet. He knew and understood what the Chairman of the Japanese Hunters Association was feeling. Chairman Yu closed his eyes then pinched the bridge of his nose. After a while, he opened his eyes and looked at Akuma with a tired expression.

Akuma also looked back at Chairman Yu's eyes. And before long, he ordered his members to scatter, looking for Momoka's body in the building.

The incident left Dal-soo, Jo-hyun, Ji-yong, Chief Yoon, and Chief Yang confused. Was the phone call that Chairman Yu just received so influential that the hunters were free to move?

Chief Yoon acted recklessly out of nowhere by stopping the Gaijin guild hunters from moving around. She subconsciously covered her hands with fire because she was in a state of anger and had to face off against an S-rank hunter.

However, the incident occurred without any understanding between the two parties and caused magic to get used unknowingly.

Chairman Yu saw that and immediately wanted to stop Chief Yoon's rash actions. Akuma also used his magic to restrain his hunter before a fight broke out.

"Oh, looks like I came at the wrong time. Should I come back another day!?"

In an instant, those words caused silence and panic among the hunters on the South Korean side. The Japanese hunters were also surprised and widened their eyes, looking in the direction where the voice came from it.

It was Ji-woo. He then looked around. The hunters on the South Korean side began to sweat. On the other hand, the hunters from the Japanese side, even though they didn't move, still showed fearlessness in their eyes as they stared at him.

Ji-woo chuckled at the difference in determination between the two sides. The Aura of Fear was not an aura that suppressed people through suffocation or exerted pressure in the gradations of life.. The aura only evoked fear in the mind of the affected person.
