Chapter 153 - Rest in peace

Now I decided to give Tawata Gravity magic.

=========

The internet was more lively than ever. With videos of Ryuu fighting the White wolf and his guildmate fighting the other humanoid monster were being watched on repeat. 

It was a festival on the internet and in Korea as they rejoiced that the end of the S-Rank gate that has broken many families apart was finished.

The boss of the island was dead as the joint team of Korean and Japanese hunters went to kill the queen. Ryuu was hugged by Cha Hae-in after being worried sick into thinking that he was going to die.

"Sorry sorry, I'll try to make up with you." 

Ryuu awkwardly smiled while the camera was pointed at him with Cha Hae-in hugging him where everyone thought that they were in a relationship as well. 

"How about us? Didn't we do a good job!?"

Nezuko hugged Ryuu to get pampered as well as getting a dose of head pat from him who just smiled. 

"Your group should rest and let us finish the raid for you."

Choi Jong-In suggested making Ryuu nodded before heading inside the helicopter with his woman behind him while Cha Hae-in stayed to help in the raid as well even though she didn't want to leave his embrace. 

The group were now inside where Justine stretched her body feeling extremely stiff from her fight. Rias handed the Ice monarch Rune stone to Ryuu who inspected it.

"I didn't expect they were actually going to drop this. Well, have you absorbed the stone, Shinobu?"

"I haven't since I'm still in the process of changing jobs. Maybe once we return home."

Ryuu nodded since it would be an uproar if she suddenly tried to use the Rune stone. Not to mention, she was exhausted from her fight and needed a long rest. 

The raid ended with Hae-in cutting the head of the Ant queen as Jin-woo was busy killing the Ants around the island as he tried to make the 4 ants into his shadow soldiers he succeed on the first 3 which had the rank of elite knight nearly maxed out but he wasn't able to extract the last one for the first two times then he tried for the last time and succeed then he was surrounded by darkness as he saw that Ant king rise but he looked weaker compared to before. Then a system notification that one else other than him can see popped up.

[The target's soul has been damaged. Its power rank has been reduced.]

He didn't understand why this happened but then he saw the rank that he didn't know.

[????- lv-1 General]

"Whatever your name will be Beru."

He said and was luckily enough the name wasn't horrible. Ryuu and Jin woo had something in common and it is a horrible naming sense.

============

The Next Day the whole world was celebrating in a successful raid. Jeju island was completely free of any monsters because of Jin-woo and other hunters who helped clean the island now the magic stones and the bodies are being recovered. There were no casualties this time.

With all the ants on the island being knocked out and Jin-woo helping out. I don't know what to say if there were still casualties.

Ryuu was on his way towards an event that will be held for those who have lost their lives on Jeju island in the past. He was alone as the girls went shopping since they're also planning to have a pool party and BBQ to celebrate the coming. The other girls were going to buy some things before they met up and buy some bikinis. 

He was in the car with Jin-woo as we made our way to the venue. He was wearing a black suit with a black tie and black shoes.

He was wearing his usual outfit of all black overcoat with red inner vest and tie. Ryuu likes simple and monochromatic colors since it feels right. Call him an edge Lord but it's his style. 

"Do you have anything you're curious about?"

Ryuu asked while staring in the window as their driver took them to their destination. It was clear that there was something that he wanted to know.

"Who were those monsters? It's clear that they are not normal monsters."

Jin woo never felt helpless before even fighting Baran. He knows that there is some connection to him because they're was something familiar when he saw those monsters. 

"You shouldn't worry and take your own pace in getting stronger. However, if you're truly curious then the answer will be found in the double dungeon that gave you the system."

Ryuu glances where his eyes glint in blood-soaked eyes, causing Jin Woo to shiver from shock to hear that someone knows his secret then realize that he knows about his father and entities called Rulers. 

"Who are you really?"

Jin Woo asked wanting to know everything while Ryuu heard his tone as if demanding and made him chuckle. 

"Dude, relax. I mean if I'm an enemy you'll be dead by now."

He said, causing Jin Woo to calm down since if he can't even stand before those humanoid monsters then what are his chances against him? 

"Well, that aside, I was wondering if I can invite you and your family to a pool party."

"Pool Party?"

"Yeah, something to relax and celebrate the successful raid. Not to mention it helps you relax with all the things happening."

Ryuu suggested having felt that they deserve a little break with all the action after the raid. Jin Woo thought about it and gave a nod.

"Alright, I think it will help my mother who started to get better."

Even though Jin woo was anxious about the future couldn't sacrifice his time for his family and it's not like he can turn back time. Right?

"Also, I think your family should move out and find a new home."

Jin woo nodded considering moving because in the beginning they didn't want to move out until his father was home but now he is then they can finally move out and find a better home especially with his money. 

"You are right and the reporters make it more annoying. And Jin-ho has selected an office for our guild. I am ok with it and the name of the guild has been decided to be Ah-Jin guild. " 

He said while looking at me.

"Let me guess your sister's name, you're guild." 

"Yeah, I was going for Solo Player guild or something."

"That's good, both of us are terrible at naming shit."

Ryuu sighs as he was about to name his guild like "Fake Guild" or something if it weren't for Justine giving her suggestion. .

"Right, I almost forgot to mention but don't stick your shadow soldiers on females. Or if you do, just tell them to report back if they are in danger or you might accidentally peek at someone taking a bath." 

He warns him as he finds the shadow soldiers on Hae-in and his woman. Ryuu took them out and shattered them using [ soul magic ] before as he didn't want someone peeking on them. 

He then smirked when he saw his face getting red as he was avoiding his gaze.

"Who did you peek at?" 

Ryuu teases him a bit, finding it funny that the edgelord Jin woo was blushing. 

"I-I didn't peek, it was an accident." 

He tried to justify his action while Ryuu rolled his eyes.

"Peeking is peeking it doesn't matter if it's accidental or not, So was it Miss Jo-hee?"

He asked and Jin Woo's face turned bright red.

"OHO, you better take responsibility for her then,"

He said to him while smiling and soon the two arrived at their destination and came out of the car and went towards the venue, Ryuu and Jin-woo were swarmed by reporters as they asked us questions about the raid and the monsters. But the questions they asked the most were about his well-being as they saw him get all bloody from the fight . 

Ryuu told them not to worry about it and waved it off. Then they went towards the place where everyone was gathering.

They sat down as they saw Chairman Go giving a speech for those who have lost their lives on Jeju island. After a 15-minute long speech everyone started to place white flowers to honor those who died.

Many of their family members were present as they were crying. After everyone else had their turn, he went last as he placed a white flower.

'Soul who have long passed may their soul find their way to peace.'
