My Range is One Million

Chapter 15: Maybe I’m Not Happy 2

Jaehwang continued his story and Mr. Song listened to him as he nodded his head. Jaehwang told him about everything he saw that night without mentioning that he also almost died. The situation was as stressful, Jaehwang didn’t want to give him something to worry about.

“You have to report it to the police.”

“Yea, I was going to do that but, it’s not easy up on the mountain.”

Mr. Song understood his reason and shook his head in agreement.

“I see. they really need to at least make phone lines for this place but the last mountain village general didn’t want that.”

“I would be so thankful if they could add them.”

“Me too. Are you okay? It’s lonely here…”

Mr. Song asked Jaehwang in a concerned voice.

“I’m okay. This is my ancestor’s place. I will take care of it and protect it.”

Mr. Song nodded his head and drank some water. After everyone had finished eating, Jaehwang sent them off and left the room to go back into the shrine.

He greeted the ancestral tablets and then looked over towards the corner and saw the green light again.

“It’s so obvious.”

Two of his skillful talents were at the 5th place (the lowest) and his athletic skills weren’t that good just yet, but when he started to remember what he learned before and what he learned them. He looked at the green mark and a status window soon appeared in front of him.

“I’m…A gagseog.”

This was something that he somehow expected before but he couldn’t help but look at the status window with a puzzled expression.

-Wow… It’s amazing. Only 500 years had passed by and magic like this happened…

The spirit inside of him spoke again.

-Do you know about the monster?

Of course that was something that everyone was completely aware of.

-I have to be careful to not attract any monsters.

He knew that he had to be wary of the monster. He needed to hear every detail and know every bit of information but he ignored that thought for now.

-If you don’t like it then don’t think about it.

-Huh?

The spirit said cutting off Jaehwang’s thinking.

-I would be angry too if I heard a different person’s voice in my head. I would immediately tell it to leave if I didn’t like it…

-You…Never mind…

He started to get mad…Jaehwang then talked in a more serious and stern voice.

-If you can’t leave then be quiet.

-Humph!

The spirit then stopped talking and Jaehwang went back to the status window projecting from the green light.

He had a lot to do every day and he never had a strange voice in his head interrupting him. A spirit in his head made him feel anxious. He was having trouble figuring out his thoughts and it got harder to pinpoint what he really thought.

Of course he didn’t hear every single thing the spirit said. It could move into his heart so he could just have full control over his thoughts. That thought might be as good as it sounds but it wasn’t an easy thing to do since the whole process would tire him out mentally.

He just hoped that maybe the spirit wouldn’t behave like this all the time. He was starting to get annoyed because everytime he tried to think of something, the spirit would interrupt and confuse him.

“Quiet down, it doesn’t matter.”

He ignored the spirit in his head and proceeded to leave the room. It was when he realized that his strength had increased and he felt that he could now lift an extra hundred kilograms.

His physical strength originally had a rating of 2. Before he could only easily lift things that weighed 80 kilograms but now he could lift things weighing 160 kilograms with no effort. It was like his entire body had changed. He smiled, realizing that this would help him be able to constantly train.

Getting to the next level was important but he knew that he had to start from the basics and gain more synergy…

Reaching that goal couldn’t be treated as a walk in the park. It would not only be about lifting things with his strength alone, it was also important that he could lift heavier things faster. He needed to lift things and walk at the same time. He was decided that would be the best course of practice since his body’s ability would rise higher and he would become strong all over.

But if that was too hard then he would definitely stop…

“Is there something wrong with the skill?”

When he was younger he would do it as if he was playing a mobile game. The skill came out nicely just as he wanted but the muscles he got were not helpful to his kills at that time. Every Gagseog had the same skills and Jaehwang had a hard time utilizing them.

They especially had a lot of common skills. Biyeondoes had a lot of skills as well, but real skills weren’t even developed on the few of their kind.

Sharing the same skill names didn’t mean they would also share the same effects. There were also a few cases that even though their names and effects were completely different, they both had a similar effect.

Besides, some real skills were rare between Biyeondoes and Gagseogs. It also wasn’t that having a real skill would be useless for them, everyone that had a real skill were high ranked hunters.

Heroes in the past needed all the skills that they could get and they seemed to not know everything although they didn’t even know about the few really unique skills that were left.

Jaehwang made a light movement to check the changes. His speed felt faster even though his feet didn’t feel the same as before.

For the first time, he felt like aiming for the highest rank after being reminded that he was in Rank F, level 1. He had set a clear goal to reach the next rank and eventually reach level 10

“I’m…A debaouser?”

He thought that he was a Gagseop before but now he was starting to rethink it. He was a noble hunter… He just went through dozens of modifications.

First off, he was happy. What else could he fell other than that?

He became stronger and now he knew that couldn’t get hurt like before. He wrapped his hands into a fist and stared at it with a beaming smile. He then heard the voice from inside his head again.

-For hundreds of years, your ancestors had sacrificed everything so you could be happy…

-What are you talking about?

-Just as I said. It looked like you’ve gotten stronger and it made you happy but, the reason you’re strong was because of your ancestors’ sacrifice.

The voice spoke with a cold tone and Jaehwang turned his back around in the shrine. A dark shadow then appeared from the ancestral tablets on the altar.

-I think we need to talk. Tell me, what are you talking about?….

The place was filled silence and then the voice started to talk again.

-I’m in the middle of another spell so I could tell you the details of the story. But another one of those sneaky tricks were coming up so I wouldn’t be able to tell you everything.

-No, just tell me.

-Fine. A long time ago I met someone and he cursed me. I was able to survive with half of my body doing fine. I thought that maybe the only way to break it was to let your ancestors lift it so I had to confront them. And now, you’re standing at the very place were your ancestors and I fought that day.

-How did it happen?

-Well, your ancestors broke their promise.

-…And?

-When I woke up, your ancestors were trying to trap me in a box. I didn’t know that they couldn’t just lock me in there and imprison me. But I felt like there was something bigger than that since they all gathered together and tried to confine me for hundreds of years.

They used up all of their energy until I was destroyed.

For 500 years, dozens of your ancestors lived and died together… Your ancestors had been protecting you for generations…

-Stop…

Jaehwang warned the spirit to stop talking.

-They did all of it just for you!

He then got mad.

Kwang!

“…”

Jaehwang then made a fist with his two hands and hit the top of the shrine.

The spirit stopped talking and he felt the spirit going out of his head and into his heart. Jaehwang felt a cold feeling inside of him.

The spirit started to calm him down after a long time but she was still in Jaehwang’s heart making it cold.

Both of them were connected spiritually and with just one word, his sadness became hers.

Swoosh…

A white light started to come out of Jaehwang’s right eye and it started to take form in front of him. The shape took a form into a beautiful woman who was just as tall as Jaehwang. She had white hair that reached down to her waist and a porcelain white skin along with the mark of a tiger on her shoulder.

She was wearing a long-sleeved dress that reached her ankles but she didn’t seem delicate. She looked like a well-trained warrior.

Jaehwang sensed something in front of him so he lifted his head and saw the girl standing there. She looked like she was maybe in her early twenties… He had never seen someone like her before. She then looked at him with a smile.

“Who are you?”

Jaehwang asked as he took a step back. The girl looked calm but Jaehwang’s heart was already beating fast and his mind turned blank. She reminded him of Han Sooji, the girl that he used to date. Her appearance may have triggered his memories but that spirit’s beauty couldn’t be compared to hers.

She covered her mouth with her hand and laughed. Her voice sounded familiar.

“Are you a spirit?”

“Yes.”

“Your face…?”

“You’ve seen it before.”

Jaehwang unknowingly holds his breath.

“Are you a tiger hunter?”

She gave him a pitiful look and answered.

“I have the power over every form of nature, I’m not an angel. Do you know why I’m here? I’m here to help you and….”

“Ah…”

He understood what she was saying so he looked at her and then closed his eyes. It was not anything simple and pretty, it was more of an evil call. He was much more comfortable than he thought he would be. Of course, that was because it was just her and his spirit being connected. She soon finished talking and he asked,

“Could you go back in?”

“Hm.. If that’s what you want…”

She transformed back into a cloud of white smoke before she went back through his right eye.

-Are you there?

-Yeah, and I could come out whenever you want.

-Okay.

Maybe I’m not happy 2, The end.
