Chapter 213: The Truth Revealed 2
#1
“Gosh, what a disaster.”
Baekren said as he picked up his sword.
He fled into the hole hoping the fight could come to an end.
He then turned his head towards Jaehw.a.n.g. Falling deep into thought he then tied his arms and closed his eyes. Luckily for him he seemed to have believed what he said but he had to be careful if he ever found out the truth.
-Hey, is everything alright?
Baekren said to the spirit.
-…
His spirit protected him from the last attack that was very powerful so he wanted to make sure he was okay.
`I don’t understand why you say to be careful of those kinds of hunters.’
Baekren thought of something he once told the spirit.
“Hm. I’m not sure if this is true but there’s only one reason why this person could be so powerful. There’s something about all of his attacks…”
Baekren said thinking aloud.
However, no matter how much he thought about it, he always came back to one thing.
With all the knowledge he had he needed to be very careful. Letting out any secrets could cost him his life.
However, luckily for him he had no reason to spill any secrets.
“What do you know about the Oaks in the Alousu?”
Jaehw.a.n.g said all of a sudden.
“…!”
Baekren then thought about what happened with Halcan during the incident in Justin Point. Maybe it wouldn’t be a good idea to reveal his involvement with that.
“The Oaks were finding a way towards America and China. But now that seems pretty distant for them…”
“America and China?”
“Yes.”
Beakren replied.
“The support couldn’t create some kind of stable blocking system to keep them away?”
“Well there was another plan besides a stabilizer but it didn’t work out so well. In the beginning America and China were the only countries with active targets towards the Alousu.”
“And”
“It was the dragon, right?”
Baekren replied. Jaehw.a.n.g then thought about the dragon appearing on earth.
“Maybe, it’s not a guarantee but it could happen. America could use their nuclear weapons but that could still fail.”
Baekren said to Jaehw.a.n.g as if he could read his mind.
“But why doesn’t a strong dragon like that just be in charge of protecting everything?”
Jaehw.a.n.g asked. It was true that the dragon was more powerful than any nuclear weapon.
Baekren then shrugged his shoulder and answered,
“I guess there’s no answer to that.”
“I can’t understand this.”
Jaehw.a.n.g replied.
“I’ve also gave up on trying to understand it. Just as they said, it won’t be easy to understand by a humans’ standard no matter how you look at it.”
Baekren said.
“What do you think this means for the future?”
“Possibly, but first they’ll need time to make a plan.”
“What should we do when it happens?”
“We’ll have to check the Dakosu’s dimension separationing unit.”
“I see.”
Jaehw.a.n.g said in reply.
“Is that really it?”
“Yes.”
“Hm…”
Suddenly Baekren then unconsciously took a step back.
Pong!
Out of nowhere Jaehw.a.n.g punched Baekren in the face.
“Are you kidding me?”
“What was that for?…”
“That’s what you get for lying.”
Jaehw.a.n.g said.
Out of nowhere Jaehw.a.n.g began to attack Baekren punching him and launching arrows at him.
Pong! Pong! Pong! Pong!
Baekren then flew back cras.h.i.+ng into the wall.
Ahhhhhh!
He collapsed onto the floor in pain.
“Get up.”
Jaehw.a.n.g said and Baekren struggled to stand on his feet.
“What are you doing this for…”
“You didn’t think I was being serious?”
….
Kw.a.n.g!
Jaehw.a.n.g then kicked Baekren again causing him to fall onto the ground. He was timing his attacks perfectly making sure Baekren had no time to fight back.
Baekren felt that he should have done a little more research and observing before facing Jaehw.a.n.g. He also felt that he shouldn’t have wasted time trying to talk to him instead of attacking.
“Please stop!”
Ponggg! Pong! Pong!
Jaehw.a.n.g didn’t stop attacking him. In fact, he was so focused he couldn’t even hear him pleading at first.
“If I stop, will you stop lying to me?
“What jokes are you talking about?…”
Pongg!!
Jaehw.a.n.g then kicked Baekren again.
He was then lying on the ground in pain.
Jaehw.a.n.g looked down at Baekren with a cold look in his eyes.
-What’s going on?!
The spirit shouted.
It seemed like an evil spirit had taken over him.
It looked like he was trying to kill him.

Baekren looked up seeing Jaehw.a.n.g looking down at him with his hands tightly wrapped into a fists.
He could easily just squash him like a bug in that very moment.
Jaehw.a.n.g didn’t even pay attention to the spirit. Unfortunately he was only focused on trying to get information out of him or destroying him.
“How do you know that? Unless you’re hiding something…”
Jaehw.a.n.g suggested.
“Why would I do that?”
“It seems that you have a very good detection skill.”
“…”
Jaehw.a.n.g didn’t reply to Baekren’s a.s.sumption.
He knew it must have been very obvious although he tried to hide it. Especially because Baekren could easily sense it. Even so, Jaehw.a.n.g continued to follow along with the spirit’s plan.
-I could easily destroy him.
-What…
The Spirit confusingly asked.
Baekren’ spells seemed to be a bit stronger than them.
Jaehw.a.n.g wanted to attack him first before he had a chance to use the spell.
“Why kill him?”
“Why not? He’s not even telling us the truth. He’s lying.”
Jaehw.a.n.g insisted that Baekren was lying.
“But what if he’s not? Besides, If you destroy him then we won’t have a chance to at least try to find out anything else in case he’s telling the truth.”
The spirit suggested but Jaehw.a.n.g still didn’t seem convinced.
He then turned to Baekren and said,
“Things aren’t going too well right now but I will put a little trust into what you’re saying.”
Jaehw.a.n.g came to his final decision.
“You’ll only be helping me from now on.”
“So you need my help?
“I need you to help me find where the dragon is. I may have a better chance of succeeding if I bring someone else with me.”
Jaehw.a.n.g said and Baekren was silent for a moment.
Neither of them weren’t even sure how long had pa.s.sed by since their encounter.
“Do we have eno9ugh time to travel through the dimensions?”
“We should have about one year… That’s actually not much time.”
“Really?”
“Yes. It’s actually really time consuming.”
“Alright well, we can do this in time.”
“Good.”
He said in reply to Jaehw.a.n.g.
“I’m Baekren.”
Baekren said holding his hand out to Jaehw.a.n.g. Jaehw.a.n.g just looked at his hand for a moment.
“But seriously, if you try to lie I’ll kill you.”
“Sounds like a deal.”
Baekren replied. The both of them then shook hands.

Baekren already had lots of experience fighting monsters over the past years so the mission didn’t feel like it was going to be difficult for him.
Deukdeukdeukdeuk…
Things were going to especially easy with someone like Jaehw.a.n.g helping him.
“Jaehw.a.n.g?”
“What?”
“Is there anything we should be worried about?”
Baekren asked. Jaehw.a.n.g took a moment to think before answering. He then spoke to Rumi,
“Rumi?”
“Yes?”
“Do you think it’ll be easy to find this person?”
“What person?”
