21 Unnamed

"Do you have a restaurant or anything you want to go to?" I asked. Now that I think of it, this is my first date. I have absolutely no idea what to do or where to go.

"We can't go anywhere remember. The media will talk about anything and everything." Jin-ah said.

"Personally, I found care about what they say about me, but you know if I was just out with you publicly, then there would be gossip and rumors. Along with that people at your school might be on some bullshit." I explained.

Ever sense she told me about why she was going to school I sorta figured out that she see herself as the type of person that's always in the way.

My goal was to show her that even though my social life is that if an S-rank hunter. I'd put my personal life ahead of that and it includes my love life.

"Where can we go? You did promise to take me flying." She muttered.

"In that case." I said as I turned the corner and was headed to the mountains. It would take longer to get there, but the experience would be worth the wait.

After about 30 minutes we made it there. Of course I was speeding and had to go off road a bit, but the cops didn't even bother to give me a ticket.

"We'll go to the top, so it'd be faster if you got on my back. Also clench you teeth and put your head down over my shoulder." I instructed Jin-ah as she nodded with a confused expression.

As she got on my back I sped iff up the mountain and let her down as she was gagging.

"Oh my god. Let's not do that again." She said as she caught her breath.

"We won't need to, but are you scared of heights?"

"Humph, the T express made me laugh." She said with pride and a cheeky grin. I picked her up in a princess carry and started floating.

"I guarantee we're going higher than the T express." I took off into the sky as I used my manipulation over wind to for a arrow dynamic shield in front of us. No bugs, no resistance from the wind, and she could breath normally.

I shot through the clouds and floated there for a moment.

"Now that I think about it, I never looked at the city from this height." I said as I scanned over the place. Jin-ah took out her phone and started taking pictures.

"Let's get one together." She said as she looked up at me with a smile. I agree as she held up a peace sign and put her face bext to mine while I smiled.

Taking the picture she put both if her arms back around my neck.

"Now where should our next stop be? Are you hungry?" I asked as I looked down at her.

"But we can't go to any restaurants." She said as she titled her head.

"I can cook something up. That is you're fine with coming to my apartment?"

"Yeah, but I have to tell my mom."

With that I nodded and and flew us to my car and we drove to my apartment. Of course the text went through once we got service and the mother was fine with it as long as she comes back a virgin.

Honestly they're mom is a pretty chill lady. Once I snuck her into my apartment she sighed as she sat on the couch.

"Make yourself at home. Well till I move that is or I might buy the whole complex and get the top floor turned into a penthouse." I said as I washed my hands.

"God, how much does an S-rank hunter make?" She asked as she leaned on the arm of the couch.

"I make a lot. What're you in the mood for?"

"Can we make some wings?" She asked.

"We?"

"I can cook a little." She said with a nervous laugh.

"…Nope." I said as I turned back around.

"What!?!"

"It's quite simple actually…" I said as I started flipping around a bottle of seasoning.

"I'm planning to show off." I added.

"Ehh, forget that and let's cook together." She said in an nonchalant tone.

"No, trust me we'll be cooking together at some point." I said as I took some wings and fries from the deep freezer. I felt Jin-ah wrap her arms around my neck while letting her body hang.

"Are you serious?" I asked with a sigh. I used [Magic Hand] to lift her up and sit her on the couch.

Afterwards she started watching TV while I cooked. Occasionally she would come over and peek at how everything was going and taste some fries.

"Do you ever get lonely by yourself?" She asked as she looked over at me. I had made two plates and brought them over while putting the rest in the oven.

"I'm actually barely here so not really. Are you implying that you want to move in with me?" I said with a sly grin.

"Nope." She said looking away from me.

"Huh? Why?" I asked sitting the plates down on the table in front of us as I sat down next to her on the couch.

"So do you want me to move in with you?" She shot back with a smile.

"Maybe…" I said as I hunched my shoulders and picked up a wing to eat. I grabbed the remote and we decided on a movie to watch while I used [Magic Hand] to turn the lights off.

While she ate her wings, she leaned on my shoulder as the movie played out. Over that time we watched a few more movies and I got a blanket for her as she was getting cold.

As of now she had just fell asleep and was pretty much slumped.

'It's around 10pm.' I thought as I looked at her. I picked her up while she was still in the blanket and got my keys as I left my apartment. While I was going down the stairs she woke up and looked around groggily, before falling back asleep.

I put her in the car and drove to her apartment where I woke her up.

After waking her up, we walked up the stairs with her arm wrapped around mine as she was leaning on my should. She was in a half asleep half awake state as we got to her apartment door.

"We're here." I said as I shook my shoulder a bit. She opened her eyes and rubbed them a but as she looked at me.

She gave me a side huge as she looked up at me.

"Can we go on another date?" She asked breaking eye contact.

"Probably after the raid. Tomorrow I have a "training" session with the S-ranks." I said with a sigh.

"…I see." She said as she sighed softly. She let go and stepped back a bit as she made a hand gesture fir me to bend down. I did so thinking she needed to whisper something to me.

Surprisingly she leaned forward and kissed me. The abruptness of it made our teeth bump a bit, but her soft lips made up for it. I was about to lean into it before she pulled back with a nervous expression.

Just then the door opened and Raiju ran out and jumped onto my shoulder.

Jin-ah ran past her brother as he sighed.

"You should come by tomorrow if you have time." He said.

"I'll be doing a "group training" exercise with the S-ranks from here and Japan." I answered.

"All of you together?" He asked with barely widened eyes.

"Yeah. You should come by since it'll be a good experience." I said as we shook hands. I left the complex and went down to my car to drive home.

"How was your day?" I asked Raiju. He couldn't talk, but it's obvious he understood what I said. He didn't meow, but just nodded his head.

….

(Next Day)

I was up and had my suite and sunglasses on just in time to leave. Of course I was bringing Raiju with me since I wasn't just about to leave him hear. As I was checking my hair which wouldn't stay neat I heard a knock in my door.

I went to open it and Jin-woo was standing there with his hands in his pockets. He wore a white shirt with black pants, black flats, and a black jacket that stopped at his knees.

"Why're you here?" I asked with confusion.

"The chairman invited me to watch your group training. I didn't have anything to do, so I thought I might as well go."

"Why didn't you just go to the association?"

"He said something about us knowing each other and asked if I could check on you."

"Ohhhh. Well I'm ready now. Raiju!!" I called out. In a ball of lightning he appeared on my shoulder as we left the complex.

…

-Hunters Association-

Jin-woo used [Shadow Exchange] to get to my apartment, so he went with me in my car. We got out and went into the building as I showed the people at the desk my badge and introduced Jin-woo as the guest if the chairman.

We went up the elevator and got off as Jin-woo looked around at the people walking around. As we walked into the chairmans office Jin-woos eyes glowed a vibrant purple as he saw Jin-cheul and Go Gong-hee.

"Hmm, what's that little creature on your shoulder?" The chairman asked.

"A beast from a dungeon I found. It wasn't too hostile." I said as I rubbed Raiju's head.

"I see. Lets get down to business, shall we?" Everyone nodded as the chairman spoke.

"For today I would like the three of you to watch the matches for today and tell me what you think about our chances of completing this raid." He stated.

"I don't think we could get an accurate percentage of success without getting a good grasp of what were going against and how strong they are." Jun-cheul said.

"Yeah, if we could get a living one and measure its strength then we could compare it to that of the raid team." I added.

"Every ant has the capability to fight equally with top rank hunters." Gong-hee informed us.

"I'd say the ants are a notch below Jin-cheuls level since he's undoubtedly the strongest S-rank. So hundreds of thousands of Jin-cheuls against the S-ranks and the rest of the raid team." I said.

"Well for now I would like for all of you to observe them and then give me your answers. Thank you again Mr. Woo for accepting this proposal." He said with his usual smile. With a nod we were all taken outside of the association and into this huge dome like place.

It was made entirely from the best material, so that nothing is too damaged when the S-ranks fight. We could feel all of their energy the closer we hot and honestly…it was a bit lackluster.

Jin-chuel could easily take them in strength and energy. Then again he's S+ rank and including the fact that he practice boxing and mastered karate and judo, if he put in all of his effort in his normal state he can definitely be National rank.

As we walked in there was already a lot of people in business clothes there. They stopped to look at us and it was probably because of the natural feeling we gave off.

As we walked in, we went up some stairs and opened a set of double doors. The first thing to grab our attention was Baek Yoonho. His hair was pure white and he had primal yellow eyes.

He was shirtless which showed iff his bulking figure. He was fighting Ma Dungwook who was wearing a karate gi with a black belt. As they clashed there was a wave if wind that passed us.

Ma was able to swipe Baek's feet and throw him over to the side. Before he could fall, he caught himself and they clashed again.

"The energy wave was most likely caused by them." Go Gong-hee said.

"Baek Yoonho seems to be loosing." I noted.

"Only because he isn't going all out." Said Chae Jong-In. We looked over at him as he smiled.

"Why isn't he going all out? Isn't this a competition?" Jin-woo asked.

"As if right now we're only making a temporary partnership with Japan. It wouldn't do us any good if they got to see one of us go all out." I said.

"Correct. There's too many eyes." Jong-In added.

"I do wonder though. How does his full body transformation look?" I asked.

"He's a true monster when he's like that." Jun-cheul said.

"Them over there…" I said as I looked over to Japans S-ranks. If we take in their possible fighting capabilities I'll put them at S- at best.

"They are Japans S-rank hunters. The one who looks depressed is Izawa Itepi. The orange haired one is Isida Mari. The big guy with scars over his body is Tanaka Kenjo. The guy that looks like Jin-cheul with spiky hair is Hoshino Minoru. Next we have the creepy guy who's Kumamoto Atsusi. The gothic girl is Takawa Kanae. Glasses guy is named Huzeshima Tatsumi. Gas mask over there is called Kaye. And lastly the the chill girl is Shimizu Akira." I informed him.

"Who's he?" He asked as he looked over to Goto.

"Goto Ryuji. Their guild master." I said. He nodded. As we went back to looking at the spar between Baek Yoonho and Ma dungwook, the other S-ranks started talking.

As they continued talking to each other I heard them talking about how there wasn't anyone on the current team that could rival their S-ranks other than Chae Hae-in.

And he was correct if you exclude me and Jin-cheul. Suddenly and A-rank hunter came up to the translator and started defending Koreas S-ranks and telling them that Korea isn't to be played with.

Suddenly the woman took off her blazer as a slightly purple aura started flowing off of her. The man fixed his sleeve as he spoke.

"Well then let's set rules. The first to grab the others wrist wins."

"There's an unexpected mind game here." She stated.

"But, is that your ready position?" She asked, seeing that he had his hands in his pocket."

"Don't worry about it. Besides when I grab your wrist I won't be needing to remove my hand." He said.

The translator shot off at him as he stood there. They both seemed to be if the same strength, so the deciding factor would be experience although the other guy seems to be able to keep up with her just fine.

She was taking swipes at him ferociously as she tried to grab his hands. He was dodging them easily and she jumped forward he put his leg up and pushed a bit.

He hand was thrown back as he stayed in that position. His pants were ripped though. While he was looking down, she tried to attack him, but he reacted faster and grabbed her wrist.

"How do you boast about your country's S-ranks then try to win with a sneak attack?" I asked with a sigh.

"Hanekawa can you deliver my words to everyone?" Goto asked in Japanese.
