My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 30: The Meeting Begins!

"Don't you think you overdid it?" Jin-woo asked me as he walked beside me.

"Nah, it is necessary if I didn't show them what I can do they will look down on me even if I am an S-rank and think that we are disposable. Especially that Goto the title of No. 2 Hunter of Asia has gotten to his head." I said while shaking my head as that was what led japan to its demise because of their conspiracy to kill the Korean hunters and control Korea from behind the scenes.

He nodded his head as he was able to see their attitude towards Korean hunters as well. And he was disappointed in the Japanese hunters for being overconfident.

"Still how can you hide that much power?" he said.

"Well, aren't you the same?" He looked surprised at first then nodded.

"So are you going to change the plan for this raid?"

"Yep, the last plan isn't going to cut it anymore. There is also the possibility of the Japanese side's withdrawal but I doubt they will."

"How are you sure?" he asked.

"Do you think they came to Korea with just good intentions?" I said and opened his eyes wide as he nodded his head.

"So help me with the thing we were doing." He said while looking at me.

"Yeah, how about..." I paused as he nodded his head.

".....No" he was stunned as I walked forward he then caught up to me.

"Hey what the big deal? Help me out here I don't want to go through that again." He said while showing a fearful look.

"Stop acting like that, or the readers are going to rant that I destroyed your character," I said to him.

"What are you saying?" he asked with a confused look.

"No idea." I just shook my head as I walked and he was asking me for help.

.......

Back at the Gymnasium,

It has been 5 minutes since Haru left and no one has said a word and they haven't even moved from their places they were still stunned by what happened just now.

"Phew, this was a disaster," Jong-in said while smiling but the sweat on his forehead revealed his real feelings.

"We need to treat both Goto-san and Atsushi. Akari go and heal Atsushi first he is in a bad state." Kanae's voice brought the Japanese hunters out of their daze as they started moving to help their hunters. 'Monster.' That was the thought going on in the head of everyone present here.

Even Chairman Go was stunned when he recalled what happened he was sweating but his heart was beating faster than ever.

'We have a strong hunter that can protect our country this was my only worry, and now I don't have to think about it that much as we have a hunter of that capability.' He was happy that his country can be safe. This was the only reason he held on for so long even after being retiring.

'I can now leave it to the young ones now' he thought as he looked at Hae-in who was still acting a bit shy.

"We will gather tomorrow to discuss the plan. If you have any objection you can say it now." When Chairman Go said this everyone nodded. And started to leave the Gymnasium to get back to their work.

Soon only the Japanese hunters were left after Akari healed Atsushi. He woke up and asked.

"What happened here why is this place in a mess?" but he got the glare of everyone present.

'Shut up, bastard do you know what you just did?' they all wanted to curse him but couldn't as they were responsible for this as well.

And Atsushi flinched as he understood that he lost control again.

Then Goto stood up and walked out with a pale face while sweating heavily while taking a glance at Kanae before going out.

And everyone followed him out while looking at Kanae without saying anything.

After some time only Kanae and Akari were left behind in the gymnasium.

"How were you able to stand in that pressure?" Akari asked Kanae with some amazement because even their Strongest hunter wasn't able to do that.

"I don't know. I just didn't want to lose that's all." She said.

Akari's eyes twitched.

'Seriously that was all? Are you kidding? She didn't want to lose? It is her strong-minded character and stubbornness, I guess.'

"Still as stubborn as always I see." Then they felt someone who just entered.

"Ah sorry I just forgot my phone." It was the Korean hunter Cha Hae-in that just came in.

"Oh, They didn't understand what I said just now." She was saying to herself.

"Um, I can understand you," Akari spoke in Korean which surprised Hae-in.

"you can speak in Korean?" she asked while looking at Akari.

"Yes, I lived in Korea for 3 years. So I picked up the language I can hold a normal conversation." Akari said as she remembered the reason she came to Korea with her mother her mood became down again. and Kanae just shook her head.

'This girl...'

"Ok, then I won't disturb you," Hae-in said as she was looking for her phone.

"We'll help you as well," Akari said while telling kanae the reason she is here and she nodded as well.

Hae-in nodded and thanked them, Kanae found the phone in the spectator area and was about to say she found it but the phone switched on and she was a picture of Hae-in and Hunter tsugikuni standing together.

She was stunned at how good they looked together. She shook her head and gave Hae-in her phone. She then thanked them again and went back.

"She is a polite lady, isn't she? What do you think is her relationship with Tsugikuni-san." Akari said while looking at Kanae only to see her in a daze.

"What happened? You didn't fall for him on the first meeting right?" Akari said while looking at her friend.

"Huh, N-No I wasn't thinking about him." She was thinking about him but not romantically from the moment she saw him. She could feel it her gut feeling told her not to provoke him. She was sure that he was powerful but she didn't think the difference was this big.

"K-A-N-A-E." Akari's voice brought her out of her daze as she looked at her and Akari was looking at her with narrowed eyes. And Kanae just walked out of the gym ignoring her.

.....

Goto POV.

I came out of the Gymnasium after glancing at Kanae and distanced himself from the interpreter.

Even though the weather wasn't all that hot, there were cold sweat drops visible on my forehead. He pulled out his phone and dialed a familiar number. After a couple of rings, I could hear the sound of the phone's receiver being picked up.

Click.

- It's Matsumoto speaking.

"Association President."

- "Is it you, Goto? What's the matter with your voice?"

I did my best to calm my trembling voice.

"In South Korea... There's an incredible Hunter in South Korea."

- "More than you?"

"I won't be able to do a thing, sir."

- "Are you sure?"

"I'm certain and our plan isn't going to work anymore, sir."

Matsumoto Shigeo didn't immediately say anything, but rummaged through something for a while instead, before finally asking a question.

- "The name of that Hunter is?"

"It's Tsugikuni Haru. He's evaluated as a rank S recently."

-"It's him. I got the names of the participants from the Korean side his name is on it and his abilities are still unknown.

-"What happened there, Goto?"

After I explained what happened in the gym. The association president was stunned for a good 10 minutes.

"If what you said is true then. What are the chances of our plan working." He said in a shaky voice

"0% he has announced that he will be changing the plan and he already gave us a warning." I could feel it when he blasted Atsushi away. It conveyed a message to me. I can only understand it now if we try to do what we came here for.....

I don't want to imagine what will happen.

-"Are you sure his strength is the level of National Level hunters?"

"I would say it's higher, sir." I was able to feel it when he was looking at me with his eyes glowing red. The feeling I had in front of him was how an ant would feel in front of an elephant. I haven't even felt like this in front of Lui Zhigang.

-"...Ok, tell me the plan he proposes tomorrow."

Click* with that the call ended.

.....

The next day,

Everyone participating in the raid was present in the meeting room. Including Chairman Go, Woo Jin-Chul, and the Japanese interpreter Hanekawa. Everyone was wearing formal wear.

They were waiting for one person to arrive though it was still 15 minutes before the appointed time. Then the door opened and everyone looked towards the gate to see the person they were waiting for.

With his red hair tied in a high ponytail with bangs on each side framing his handsome face with red gem-like eyes. He was wearing a three-piece suit that consists of a black blazer that is paired with dress pants of the same color and a black waistcoat. A dark brown dress shoes and a maroon dress shirt with a white collar underneath the suit. His collar and cuffs are adorned with rectangular links, and a tie bar is clipped onto his black and gray-striped tie. He is additionally wearing a black watch.

Everyone was stunned by how he dressed especially Hae-in whose eyes were practically glued to him as she was looking at him while blushing.

And it wasn't only her every woman in the room was looking at him. I mean why wouldn't they look at the eye candy in front of them.

"Hello. Sorry to make you wait." He said as he sat down on a chair that was kept for him.

"It's alright you came before the appointed time." Chairman Go said to him with a smile.

He nodded and stood up while saying.

"Let's start the meeting then."
