Chapter 254

‘What?!’

Even though they were hearing a normal mother-son conversation, the hunters present still felt surprised.

“Hey, did you just call Cha Hae-in your ‘mother’?”

“Hunter Sung Suho… is Cha Hae-in’s son?!”

A series of shocks.

Everyone’s head felt like they were being torn apart by the flood of information

It was a huge incident in itself that Cha Hae-in was riding a black dragon across Korea.

Then, it was even revealed that she was Suho’s mother, who was the hottest topic of interest in Korea until this morning.

‘This is a scoop!’

‘This kind of scoop is a first-come, first-served fight!’

Papapapapang!

The reporters started clicking their camera shutters like crazy, keeping an eye on each other.

To spread the image of Sung Suho and Cha Hae-in facing each other with a giant crouching black dragon in the background faster than anyone else.

Tadadadadak!

At the same time, their fingers were spreading this tremendous news to the public at a speed that was invisible to the eye.

(Shocking two-shot) Hunter Sung Suho, the secret of his birth is revealed!

-Exclusive) Cha Hae-in’s son, Sung Suho!

The Internet is faster than light.

The public’s reaction, which was already focused on the Black Dragon, also exploded in real-time.

-What??

-Sung Suho is Cha Hae-in’s son?!

-That’s crazy. That’s really crazy!

-Image) Sung Suho + Cha Hae-in two-shot, comparison image

-Wow. They really look alike.

-When you look at them side by side like this, he looks so much like his mom!

-Cha Hae-in’s facial features overlap with Sung Suho’s!

-No, really?? Why didn’t I notice this until now?

-Wait, Cha Hae-in was active 20 years ago?

-No, wait. Then how old is Cha Hae-in now?

-Is that really what a mother’s face would look like with a son in his 20s?

-Did she age?

People who saw the photo were shocked.

Cha Hae-in, who appeared after 20 years, looked so good that you would think she was in her 30s.

It was even more amazing when people saw it with her son, Sung Suho, who was in his early 20s and standing with her.

-But no matter how you look at it, they do look similar.

-Right, Sung Suho, except for his sharp jawline and eyes, looks exactly like his mother, right?

-Does his eyes resemble his dad’s? At this point, I’m inquisitive about his dad’s face.

-Looking at Sung Suho’s eyes, I think his father is really handsome.

-Well, there’s no way Cha Haiin would have married an ordinary man. Was it just his face?

-Yeah! Something felt strange when you suddenly said you were marrying an ordinary civil servant!

The reaction was hot.

No matter how much the river beyond the barbed wire was bubbling like lava, the public’s interest in the news far surpassed that excitement.

Perhaps a few days in a journalist’s life were as rewarding as today.

Because the scoop wasn’t over yet.

“Mrs. Cha Hae-in. I’m sorry to interrupt you.”

At that moment, a man suddenly intervened between Sung Suho and Cha Hae-in.

“My name is Jaehyuk Han, the leader of the Hunter Association staff tasked with your supplies.”

At that time, association staff members were there to transport supplies to then be supplied to Association Chairman Woo Jinchul.

Team leader Han Jae-hyeok borrowed a magic power meter that was being stored at the military base and politely handed it over to Cha Hae-in.

“I checked the records and it appears that you haven’t registered as a hunter yet. If you have awakened, may I request a magic power measurement?”

“Ah…”

At that moment, everyone’s ears perked up.

Team Leader Han Jae-hyeok spoke again cautiously as the eyes of numerous reporters gleamed.

“Of course, if this place is too burdensome for you, you can choose another day. If you want it to be private, I can do it for you. However, it is difficult to allow you to take Hunter Sung Suho to North Korea on this Black Dragon.”

Team leader Han Jae-hyeok had to carefully choose his words while speaking.

In fact, it was quite rude for reporters to publicly ask for Hunter’s personal information in such a crowded place.

This was especially true because he was talking to Cha Hae-in, who has the favor and support of the entire nation.

But from the association’s standpoint, it was something that couldn’t be helped.

“If you want to go to North Korea, you must go through a national referendum like your son, Hunter Sung Suho. It would be a violation of international law for you, Cha Hae-in, who is not even registered as a hunter, to cross this barbed wire. And on top of that, it is already…”

While talking, Team Leader Han Jae-hyeok glanced at the ‘Black Dragon’ yawning behind Cha Hae-in and closed his mouth.

The people’s right to know is the journalists’ job.

The management of the Awakened is the association’s role.

Even though the sudden dragon raid ended as a short incident, nothing changed.

From the association’s perspective, Cha Hae-in was still a suspicious person who arrived on the Korean Peninsula across the sea riding a mysterious black dragon.

‘There is no record of departure. We don’t know when Cha Hae-in left Korea, and we don’t know where she has been and what she has been doing…’

All of these things are subject to investigation from the association’s standpoint.

But at the same time, because he was talking to none other than Cha Hae-in, Team Leader Han Jae-hyeok was extremely cautious with his words.

Even though 20 years have passed since his retirement, many citizens who remember Cha Hae-in from back then still have an extreme fondness for her.

The so-called ‘bag rights’

Especially now, in front of so many reporters, if he dares to be even a little rude to Cha Hae-in, he could be criticized by the entire nation.

If he had used the word ‘villain’, he was afraid to imagine what kind of attacks he would suffer from.

But fortunately, Cha Hae-in fully understood both her position and Team Leader Han Jae-hyeok’s position and nodded obediently.

“Yes, I understand. I will take the magic power test right away. I don’t mind if the results are made public.”

It’s been a long time since she had this kind of interest.

Given Cha Hae-in’s personality, these concerns were burdensome no matter how old she got.

But a burden is a burden, and it was true that it felt familiar.

From her teens to her twenties, Cha Hae-in lived a life that received a lot of public attention throughout her career as a track and field athlete.

Fortunately, after retirement, she was able to return to her normal daily life as suited to her personality, but the process was by no means easy.

‘His help was great.’

Thanks to her husband’s shadow soldiers who kept the paparazzi’s attention completely blocked, she was able to live a truly peaceful life.

‘No. Actually, it wasn’t that quiet. Raising children was so hard.’

A smile appeared on Cha Hae-in’s lips as she looked back on the past days.

It was hard, but when it all passes, isn’t that also a memory?

But now Suho has grown up well and is doing well.

Now that the Earth has returned to this dangerous world.

It is not possible to stick to mediocrity forever, just as one would want.

‘Yeah. I’ve enjoyed it enough for about 20 years.’

It’s ordinary.

‘Now it’s time to use your power to protect the ordinariness of others. Like before.’

In that moment, Cha Hae-in’s calm gaze changed.

And without hesitation, she placed her hand on the magic meter.

Flash-!

A dazzling light radiated from the magic meter in all directions.

And…

“S-class…”

There was no twist.

Team Leader Han Jae-hyeok swallowed dry saliva and announced the measurement results in front of everyone.

“Congratulations on your awakening as an S-class Hunter, Hunter Cha Hae-in.”

Papapapapapapang!

As soon as he finished speaking, the reporters started flashing their cameras at Cha Hae-in as if they were possessed.

Just like when Cha Hae-in became a gold medalist 20 years ago.

(Scoop) A new S-class awakened in Korea.

(Urgent) Former national team member Cha Hae-in, confirmed as S-class.

Cha Hae-in did not stop there.

She ran hard to beat her boyfriend once and ended up setting a new world record.

It was embarrassing, and it made her even more humble.

But that’s that.

And then Cha Hae-in returned not as a gold medalist, but as a S-Rank hunter.

She knew what she had to do well.

So, Cha Hae-in said to all the reporters.

Looking straight into their cameras with confidence.

Although it was a little awkward, she continued speaking shamelessly.

“Oh, by the way.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I know it’s against international law, but I’ll just take my son to North Korea for a little while.”

?

At that moment, all the hunters and reporters, including Team Leader Han Jae-hyeok, did not understand what they had just heard.

“Kaisel. Let’s go.”

[Kiaaaaaaaah!]

And they watched blankly as a giant black dragon spread its wings in front of them, and Cha Hae-in, accustomed to climbing onto its back, reached her hand out towards Suho.

Then suddenly!

“Okay, just a moment!”

“Cha Hae-in! No, Hunter Cha Hae-in!”

“This is a violation of international law!”

“We need to hold a referendum!”

Once realizing the situation, people ran to stop Cha Hae-in who had already boarded Kaisel.

But Cha Hae-in smiled brightly at them and responded.

“Don’t worry. I’ll just drop my son off and come back right. After that, I’ll pay whatever punishment or fine you have. I’ll take my son’s place and protect the country.”

“No, wait! Wait a minute!”

“You shouldn’t act so recklessly!”

“Suho? Why aren’t you riding?”

Despite Cha Hae-in’s call, Suho did not climb onto Kaisel and remained on the ground.

People were greatly relieved by that common-sense appearance.

‘Oh, yeah! That’s right!’

It was not that Suho did not want to get on.

She was amazed at how her son at grown.

“Oh, ,other. Just a moment.”

Suho was running in the exact opposite direction, not towards his mother.

Towards Baek Miho.

“Huh? Huh?”

Baek Yoon-ho, who had been guarding Baek Miho since earlier, hesitated without realizing it when Suho approached him.

“What, what is it? Why are you coming here all of a sudden?”

“Suho?”

Baek Miho was very flustered at the sight of Suho approaching her and didn’t know what to do.

“Oh my, is that Yunho’s daughter?”

Cha Hae-in’s eyes sparkled as she saw Baek Miho

But Suho’s had no business with neither Baek Miho or Baek Yoonho.

Suho had business with the supplies that Baek Miho had brought early in the morning.

The cargo truck that the South Korean government gave to Hunter’s Association

The original plan was to load the entire truck onto a military helicopter and fly it across the boiling river.

And then the plan was for Suho to drive the truck himself and go to where Chairman Woo Jinchul was…

That was the plane

“Beru.”

[Yes, Your Majesty.]

Suho’s plan was a little different.

Suho’s shadow, which had taken out the key to the Shadow Dungeon, had already covered the entire cargo truck.

“Put everything in the shadows.”

Swaaaaaaah!

At that moment, Suho’s shadow swallowed the entire cargo truck.

Suho turned around without hesitation and climbed onto Kaisel’s back.

“Let’s go, Mother.”

It was at that moment when one more scoop was added.
