The private plane carrying Jihoon and Ryujin arrived safely in Beijing.

Since I had already heard that the two were coming, I expected an aerial interception or a surprise attack by a hunter with the ability to fly.

The plane arrived safer and faster than expected.

Permission to land at the airport also went smoothly, as if it had already been planned.

at las,

Jihoon gets off the plane and sets foot on Chinese soil for the first time.

“Huh? what? Is that all?”

Jihoon saw three people already on the runway to meet him.

In a situation where even dozens or hundreds of hunters are armed and camped out, it’s not enough, three people?

ah!

Jihoon taps his knee and puts his hand on Ryujin’s shoulder.

“Those guys are ranked 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in your country? Right?”

“Oh…no…”

Ryujin answers while trying to pull back, avoiding Jihoon as naturally as if he had placed his hand on a child’s shoulder.

“These people are executives of the Hunter Management Association. The person in front is the president of the association…”

Disappointment appears in Jihoon’s eyes at Ryujin’s explanation.

Ryujin thought that Jihoon was clearly the kind of person who had no interest in things like conversation or negotiation, and who just wanted to hit anyone.

so,

So that you don’t accidentally spark a fire and end up in a hand-to-hand combat again.

I was resolving to be careful about my actions and to be more careful.

“Nice to meet you. Hunter Jihoon Kang”

Those who walked in front of Jihoon and Ryujin,

Among the executives of the China Hunter Management Association, the president of the association comes out ahead and shakes hands with a friendly smile.

“Yes, nice to meet you~”

Looking at Jihoon smiling brightly while shaking hands with the president of the association, Ryujin was convinced that if there was a devil, it would be the author.

“When I heard that you were coming, I prepared a grand dinner. I hope you like Chinese food…”

“Chinese food is good! Oh…it’s not bad to treat guests, right? Haha”

Jihoon smiles and heads to the car following the direction of the association president.

Ryujin secretly takes a step back, thinking that she wants to get away from him now…

“Hey Fan, you too, follow me. Have you seen my skills? You can’t run away”

Ryujin runs over to Jihoon’s side.

***

The group arrived at a very grand restaurant.

The various dishes already prepared filled the round table.

It was clear that each and every dish was made by top-notch Chinese chefs.

A sweet smell that stimulates the nose

Gorgeous plating that stimulates the eyes

The president’s words were not just words.

really

A grand dinner was held with VIPs being treated.

“Wow…what is all this, this is no joke”

“Haha…I hope you like the food I prepared.”

“This is my first time seeing everything. Oh, that’s Peking duck, right?”

“Hahaha, that’s right. Hunter Kang, you have a very good eye.”

The president of the association matches the rhythm even though he says things that are not very pleasant.

Jihoon glanced at him, then sat down and started to inhale the food while rotating around the round table.

For a while

For a while, I watched Jihoon hurriedly stuffing various things into his mouth.

The three executives and Ryujin’s spoon were not moving very vigorously.

“Umm…wow, it’s delicious, this too…ummm…and this too”

Jihoon continues his meal with admiration, and belatedly realizes that the rest of the people are cracking up.

“Aren’t you all taking it? You probably didn’t prepare this much for me to eat alone”

“Hunter Jihoon Kang…”

The Chinese association president’s eyes shine quite deeply.

“……?”

Jihoon stares at the president of the association, holding a duck leg in one hand and putting down a glass of empty liquor with the other.

“I know very well that Hunter Jihoon Kang is a special person. Here, the pride of our China. Just looking at the way he treats the 4th ranked Wind God, Ryujin, honestly, I can’t believe this moment.”

As the serious conversation suddenly started, Jihoon put down the duck leg and wet his lips with Baekju again.

“So?”

“Let’s just stop here…”

The Chinese association president held his weight and muttered quietly.

The deep emotions contained in his deep voice and words were enough to instantly turn this place into a serious meeting.

“This far?”

“Yes… Up to this point, China will make a lot of concessions. Hunter Kang and his country, the Republic of Korea… will not be held responsible for this incident.”

“Hoo??”

The corners of Jihoon’s mouth slowly rise.

At this, Ryujin began to feel dizzy, as if all the hair on her body was standing on end.

Without realizing it, Ryujin couldn’t stop thinking about one thing.

‘Please, the president of the association, you old man… stop, please stop…’

but,

The Chinese association president did not seem to have any intention of doing so.

“If it were the same as before, it would never have happened. We, China, never forgive our enemies. But, this time… yes, I will forgive you just this once. We will not hold you accountable for attacking and illegally detaining our hunters. I will not ask you to return the orc priest’s ring. I will not take revenge for insulting our ranker. So… So Mr. Kang Hunter, please stop here.”

These were words full of sincerity.

They even showed a firm determination to somehow resolve a problem that could escalate into a conflict between nations.

Almost,

Jihoon almost said thank you.

but,

Jihoon wasn’t stupid.

I was smiling stupidly, and my mouth was covered in duck fat, but

He was by no means a soft person.

The Chairman of the Chinese Association,

I don’t know if they did a lot of background research on Jihoon in a short period of time, but

I had no idea what kind of people he had been dealing with and what kind of time he had spent in the parallel world, that is, the bloody martial forest.

“I eat good food and listen to bullshit”

“…What…what…did you just say?”

“That’s bullshit. Bullshit. Is the interpreter earphone battery dead? Hey, translate the fan. Bullshit.”

“Pangoupi”

Ryujin, without even thinking about it, followed Jihoon’s orders and interpreted the bullshit.

“Ah… No, the interpretation earphones are fine. Hunter Jihoon Kang, what are you doing now?”

“What are you doing, man? Who forgives whom and who looks after whom? Are you really out of your mind?? The orc priest’s ring is originally ours, so why are you using it for favors? Also, if armed hunters invaded our territorial waters, wouldn’t there be nothing to say even if they were killed right away? I should have been grateful if they had given me a moderate beating and locked me up to deal with the law. Lastly, are you insulting the ranker? who? Are you talking about him? Hey, fan”

“……”

“Are you not answering? Since both legs are together, there is nothing to regret, right?”

“Ah…no! I thought about something else for a moment!”

“Really? Well, anyway… I said I insulted you. Is there something you feel bad about?”

“Ah…no! Absolutely not!”

“Right? No? You arbitrarily invaded someone else’s country and dragged me away. You said something… You put my legs back on, and gave me a good nickname… Aren’t I really a good person? ”

“That’s right, Hunter Kang! I am grateful!”

The Chinese association president was dumbfounded.

Is the author in front of me really Ryujin the Wind God?

Could it be that someone is wearing his mask and acting?

How sad would the people who respect him be if they saw him groveling like that, smiling like an idiot and making fun of tunes?

“Hunter Jihoon Kang. China has rightfully demanded the return of the Oak Priest Ring. Hunters were sent to warn the Korean government, which did not respond. These were all actions that had clear justification.”

“Ah, justification. There is a clear reason why I came here. Okay, even though I’m looking through everything, let’s see if there’s any nonsense”

“Ha…I really wasn’t going to go this far…”

The Chinese association president quickly stands up from his seat.

And, following him, the two executives slowly got up from their seats.

They moved to a corner of the restaurant and spoke to Ryujin.

“Ryujin. Let’s get it done.”

“……?”

Ryujin looks like she doesn’t know what bullshit she’s talking about

Didn’t they see that they were scared the whole time?

“Lord… President of the Association, I have no intention of fighting with former Hunter Kang Ji-hoon again. What kind of bullshit are you talking about?”

This time, even though Jihoon didn’t order it, the first word that came out of Ryujin’s mouth was bullshit.

However, the Chinese association president just sighed and pointed with his finger to the table where food was lined up.

“Hey… I added Belcryon’s poison.”

“Be…Belcryon’s poison?”

“Yes, that guy… he only added Belcryon’s poison to the drink he drinks. I don’t know what on earth that guy did to Ryujin, but please don’t worry anymore and show off your skills. Isn’t it ranked 4th in China? Isn’t this Ryujin, the Wind God? What I am saying is, don’t show your servile and miserable side anymore.”

It was a tearful speech by the president of the association.

Upon hearing this, Ryujin’s eyes are filled with an intense desire and determination to win.

of course,

Jihoon, who was still sitting and tearing at the duck leg again, found this situation funny and funny.

“Ha…if you eat this often, you will build immunity, guys…”

Ryujin approaches with vengeful, solemn eyes.

Jihoon just waited, drinking the liquor said to contain Belcryon’s poison.
